OBJECTIVE To investigate the efficacy and safety of ropivacaine combined with oxycodone for the analgesia of iliac fascia nerve block in patients undergoing hip replacement. METHODS Sixty-six patients who underwent hip replacement at the Central Hospital of Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture from October 2023 to April 2024 were selected and randomly divided into observation group and control group， with 33 cases in each group. Before induction of anesthesia， ultrasound-guided iliac fascial nerve block was performed. Patients in the observation group were treated with 0.33% ropivacaine+0.1 mg/kg oxycodone injection mixture 30 mL， and patients in the control group were treated with 0.33% ropivacaine injection 30 mL. The time of first postoperative rescue analgesia， 24 h postoperative analgesic drug consumption， sensory block and motor block effective and maintenance time， satisfaction degree， numerical rating scale （NRS） pain score， Ramsay sedation score， muscle strength score， heart rate （HR）， mean arterial pressure （MAP）， oxygen saturation（SpO2）， sleep score， anxiety score， and the occurrence of adverse reactions in the two groups were all recorded. RESULTS Compared with the control group， the first rescue analgesia time after operation was significantly prolonged in the observation group， and 24 h postoperative analgesic drug consumption after operation decreased； the effective time of sensory block was significantly shortened， and the maintenance time of sensory block was significantly prolonged， and the satisfaction score was higher； the NRS pain score after iliac fascia nerve block was lower， HR and MAP were lower， and the anxiety score and sleep score 24 and 48 h after operation were lower （P＜0.05）. In terms of safety， patients in both groups had adverse reactions after operation， such as hypertension， nausea， vomiting， and dizziness， but there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Oxycodone combined with ropivacaine shows good efficacy and safety for iliac fascial nerve block analgesia in patients undergoing hip replacement， can significantly prolong the analgesic time of ropivacaine， reduce postoperative analgesic drug consumption， improve the sleep quality of patients， and promote the rapid recovery of patients.

Objective To investigate the detection rate,epidemiology and resistance mechanism of methicil-lin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA)in a hospital in recent 5 years.Methods A total of 762 strains of non repetitive Staphylococcus aureus detected from 2016 to 2020 in a hospital were collected retrospectively.Methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus(MSSA)was 392 strains(MSSA group)and 370 strains caused by MRSA(MRSA group),and 95 strains of MRSA isolated in 2020 were further used for resistance mechanism.Staphylococcus aureus was identified and tested for drug sensitivity by Vitek 2 automatic microbial system.Molecular epidemiological typing was determined by multilocus sequence typing.The biofilm formation was performed by crystal violet staining.PCR amplification was used to detect drug resistance genes,virulence genes and biofilm related genes,and logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the independent risk factors of its occurrence.Results The detection rate of MRSA in past five years was 48.56％,mainly was from pus samples and secretion samples(38.38％,33.51％respectively).MRSA was found in the general sur-gery(18.65％)and otorhinolaryngology(12.70％).ST88 was the most common multilocus sequence typing(37.89％),and followed by ST951(24.21％).Moderate biofilm formation was the most common,accounting for 74.73％.Multivariate regression analysis showed that compared with MSSA group,hypoproteinemia,en-docrine system diseases,wound infection and history of antibiotic use within six months were the independent risk factors for infection in MRSA group.Compared with the control group,hospital transfer,wound infection and tumor were independent risk factors for infection in MRSA group(P＜0.05).Conclusion The detection rate of MRSA in a hospital is high,and the carrying rate of various drug-resistant genes is high.The hospital should pay attention to the prevalence of MRSA and related risk factors,so as to prevent it early.

Objective:In this study, the collected mosquito samples were subjected to viral isolation to identify the species and branch characteristics of arboviruses in five regions of Shanxi Province.Methods:Eight arboviruses in mosquito samples collected from July to September 2020 were detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR, and virus isolation was carried out through cell culture. Virus isolates were identified and analyzed by molecular biology and bioinformatics method.Results:We detected 1 batch of positive samples of Japanese encephalitis virus, 2 batches of positive samples of Culex flavivirus and 8 batches of positive samples of Nam Dinh virus among 121 batches of mosquito samples. Seven virus isolates were isolated, numbered: SX-YJ-Cxp-4、SX-YJ-Ars-2、SX-YJ-Cxp-1、SX-LY-Cxp-10、SX-GP-Ars-5、SX-GP-Cxp-2、SX-GP-Cxp-4, all of which were identified as Nam Dinh virus, and the whole genome sequencing was performed on one of them, and the result showed that Shanxi Nam Dinh virus isolate and Yunnan Nam Dinh virus isolate belonged to the same evolutionary branch.Conclusions:Nam Dinh virus was isolated and identified on the specimen from Shanxi province for the first time.

Objective:To evaluate the deformity changes in the treatment of congenital clubfoot in infants by ultrasound, and to explore its clinical application value.Methods:Seventeen infants with congenital clubfoot treated in the Department of Pediatric Orthopaedics of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from March 2020 to June 2021 and 27 normal infants in the same period were selected. The distance between medial malleolus and scaphoids (MM-N distance) of all feet was measured by ultrasound. The distance from the tangent line of the lateral edge of calcaneus to the midpoint of the lateral edge of the chondroid bone (C-C distance), medial soft tissue thickness and tibial calcaneal angle were measured by ultrasound. The data before, after treatment and during follow-up were statistically analyzed.Results:A total of 88 feet of 44 infants were evaluated. The mean number of cast was 4.7±1.1, the follow-up time was (96.9±59.3)days. The MM-N distance, C-C distance and posterior tibial calcaneal angle in the clubfoot group were improved after treatment and at the last follow-up, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.01). During the treatment, 1 case had false correction, and 2 cases recurred in the last follow-up. Conclusions:Ultrasound can clearly display the medial, dorsal, lateral and posterior articular structures of normal and clubfoot, and can observe the deformity changes of clubfoot during the correction process, which can provide guidance for the clinical treatment of clubfoot.

The clinical data of 69 patients with non-HIV-related cryptococcal meningitis admitted in the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2013 to May 2019 were analyzed retrospectively.The main presentations of 69 patients are headache,fever,nausea,vomiting, visual impairment, hearing damage.Among them, 36 cases (52%) had underlying diseases, 30 cases (43%) were misdiagnosed, and 38 cases (55%) were complicated with high intracranial pressure. Cerebrospinal fluid examination showed that leukocytes increased in 47 cases, protein increased in 55 cases, chloride decreased in 41 cases, glucose decreased in 34 cases. The imaging findings were cerebral ischemia, hydrocephalus, meningeal or cerebral parenchyma enhancement. During the induction period, 63 cases were treated with combined antifungal drugs and 6 cases were treated with single antifungal drugs. The clinical symptoms were improved in 54 cases, 9 cases were discharged automatically and 6 cases died. The clinical manifestations, routine and biochemical examination of cerebrospinal fluid, imaging findings are not specific for patients with non-HIV-related cryptococcal meningitis.So early and multiple lumbar puncture should be performed to find etiological evidence to reduce misdiagnosis. The combination of antifungal drugs during the induction period is safe and effective.

Objective To investigate the relationship between rs17525495 locus polymorphism of leukotriene A4 hydrolase (LTA4H) gene and the severity of tuberculous meningitis (TBM). Methods A total of 184 TBM patients from Department of Neurology, the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2014 to October 2016 were selected as research subjects. According to the British Medical Research Council criteria, the severity of TBM patients was divided into three stages. The single nucleotide polymorphism rs17525495 of LTA4H gene was sequenced, and the general case data, clinical manifestations and results of lumbar puncture were analyzed. Results There were 91 cases (49.5％) of CC genotypes of rs17525495 locus in LTA4H gene of 184 cases, 75 cases (40.8％) of CT genotypes and 18 cases (9.8％) of TT genotypes. The frequency of allele C was 69.8％ and T was 30.2％. Patients with different genotypes were compared for their severity, clinical manifestations and lumbar puncture results. Among CC patients, the proportion of stage Ⅰ patients(54.9％, 50/91)was higher than that of stage Ⅱ(22.0％, 20/91)and Ⅲ(23.1％, 21/91). Among TT patients, the proportion of patients with stage Ⅱ(8/18)and Ⅲ(8/18)was higher than patients with stageⅠ(2/18)(χ2=15.898,P=0.003). The incidence of headache, fever, nausea and vomiting, neck stiffness, epilepsy and disturbance of consciousness was statistically analyzed. Compared with CC and CT patients, the incidence of fever(TT:13/18,CC:42/91,CT:50/75,χ2=8.932,P=0.011)and neck stiffness(TT:12/18,CC:38/91,CT:46/75,χ2=7.993,P=0.018)was higher in TT patients. Headache, nausea and vomiting, disturbance of consciousness, and the incidence of epilepsy showed no statistically significant difference. And there was no statistically significant difference in lumbar puncture pressure, chloride, protein and glucose between different genotypes. Conclusion TBM patients with mild illness frequently prompt LTA4H gene rs17525495 locus for the CC type;while patients with severe disease prompt TT type.

Objective: To investigate the action and antioxidant effects of CB2 agonist AM-1241 on rat hepatic stellate cell line (HSC-T6). Methods: HSC-T6 was randomly divided into four groups: control group, oxidative stress group, AM-1241 intervention group and AM-1241+AM-630 antagonist group. Survival rate of HSC-T6 was detected by thiazolyl blue assay under 24 h interventions with 0, 20, 50, 80 μmol/L AM-1241 and 0, 10, 20, 30, 40 μmol/L AM-630, respectively. Besides control group, the remaining groups were well cultured in low-glucose DMEM containing 100 mU/L glucose oxidase (GO) for 12 h to prepare the oxidative stress model. Then, AM-1241 intervention group was treated with 50 μmol/L low-glucose DMEM medium. After incubation for 12 h, the AM-1241+AM-630 antagonist group was treated with CB2 antagonist AM-630 (20 μmol/L) for 2 h, and cultured with 50 μmol/L AM-1241 in complete low-glucose medium for 12 h. The optimal drug concentration was selected according to the cell viability considered by the experiment results. Type III collagen (C III) content in the HSC-T6 supernatant was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Glutathione (GSH) content in HSC-T6 was detected by spectrophotometry. CB2 and heme oxygenase-1(HO-1) in each group of HSC-T6 were detected by western blotting. Results: HSC-T6 proliferation was inhibited in each group of AM-1241 in a concentration-dependent manner (P < 0.05). The inhibition was highest at 80μmol/L, and the cell survival rate was (41.61% ± 3.13%) (P < 0.05). AM-630 concentration group had no significant inhibitory effect on the proliferation of HSC-T6 (P > 0.05). HSC-T6 expressed CB2 receptor in each group. The expression level of CB2 in the AM-1241 intervention group was higher compare with control group (P < 0.05).The expression of Col III were significantly higher in oxidative stress group (P < 0.05) than in control group, and the expression of Col III of AM-1241 intervention group was significantly lower than that in oxidative stress group (P < 0.05). Col III level in AM-1241+AM-630 antagonistic group was significantly higher than that in AM-1241 intervention group (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference between AM-1241+AM-630 antagonistic group and oxidative stress group (P > 0.05). The content of GSH and HO-1 in oxidative stress group was higher (P < 0.05) than control group. The content of GSH and HO-1 in the AM-1241 intervention group was higher compared with oxidative stress group, while content of AM-1241 + AM-630 antagonist group was lower compared to AM-1241 intervention group (P < 0.05), and the differences were not statistically significant for oxidative stress group. Conclusion CB2 agonist AM-1241 can inhibit the proliferation and activation of HSC-T6 and its mechanism may activate the nuclear translocation of Nrf2 binding to HSC-T6, initiating the up-regulation of antioxidant enzymes HO-1 and GSH protein expression, and thus increase the antioxidant effect of HSC-T6.

Objective To compare the difference of ultrasound-guided anterior sciatic nerve block by multiple injection and single injection.Methods Among 90 patients undergoing lower limb operation,aged 18-68 years old,47 patients were males and 43 patients were females,all falling into ASA Ⅰ-Ⅲ.The patients were randomized to ultrasound-guided anterior sciatic nerve block by multiple injection (group M,n=45) single injection (group S,n=45).Local anesthetic of 0.5% ropivacaine hydrochloride 20 ml was used.The width,thickness and depth of sciatic nerve and blocking performance time were recorded.Sensory and motor blockade on the operated limb were evaluated every 10 minutes after injection of local anesthetic for 30 minutes and complications were observed in two groups.Results The width,thinkness and depth of sciatic nerve on the ultrasound screen were not statistically significant in the two groups.The performance time of group M was longer than that of group S (P<0.05).The proportion of patients with sensory blockade of each nerve significantly differed between the two groups: for superficial peroneal nerve at 10,20,and 30 minutes,for the sural nerve at 20,30 minutes,for the tibial nerve at 30 minutes,that of group M was higher than that of group S (P<0.05).A significantly greater rate of motor blockade was observed for the dorsal flexion of foot and toes extension in group M than that of group S at 30 minutes (P<0.05).The complications of nausea,vomitting and tinnitus were not different in two groups.Conclusion Multiple injection needs more operation time compared with single injection,but its onset time of sensory and motor blockade is quicker,the complications were not different.

Objective To investigate the features of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the modified ZeiM-Neelsen (MZN) positive tuberculous mengningitis (TBM).Methods We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of 170 patients with tuberculous meningitis confirmed by MZN stain from December 2012 to July 2015.The purpose of the present study was to investigate the relationship of MZN staining and CSF cytology.Results Among 170 patients with TBM confirmed by MZN staining,128 cases had first detectable acid-fast bacillus (AFB) in earlier stage.The cytology included 15.5％ mixed cellular cytology,58.5％ lymphoid cytology,19.5％ neutrophilic cytology and 6.5％ normal cytology.Twenty-four cases had first detectable AFB within 1-2 months following disease onset.The cytology included 13.1％ mixed cellular cytology,56.6％ lymphoid cytology,21.7％ neutrophilic cytology and 8.7％ normal cytology.Eighteen cases had first detectable AFB 2 months after disease onset.The cytology included 26.7％ mixed cellular cytology,46.7％ lymphoid cytology,20.0％ neutrophilic cytology,6.6％ normal cytology.There was no significant difference in median time of first detectable AFB among those four types of cytology (P=0.812).There was significant difference in median time of first detectable AFB between patients with and without anti-TB therapy [21.5 (12.3,37.8) days vs.8.5 (6.0,16.3)days,P＜0.001].There was no significant difference in median time MZN stain turning negative between patients with and without anti-TB therapy [11 (5.75,19.25) days vs.6(4.25,10.75)days,P=0.230].Conclusions AFB can be detectable within a month after the onset of TBM in most of cases.(MZN) positive staining is not associated with the major type of cytology.Anti-TB therapy may delay the first detectable time of AFB.

Objective To explore the effect of low-frequency electroacupuncture (EA) on neuropathic pain induced by spinal nerve injury and its underlying mechanism.Methods Thirty-two male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into a normal group,a sham spared nerve injury (SNI) group,an SNI group and an SNI+EA group,each of 8.The rats in the SNI and SNI+EA groups were given SNI surgery,while those of the sham-SNI group only had the sciatic nerve and its branches exposed without any lesion.EA at 2 Hz was applied over the ipsilateral Zusanli and Kunlun acupoints daily for 14 days after the surgery.The ipsilateral paw withdrawal threshold (PWT) was measured,along with protein kinase A (PKA) levels in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord,calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and substance P (SP) levels along with transient receptor potential V1 (TRPV1).Results Compared to the normal group,the SNI groups all showed significant decreases in their PWTs on the affected side and significant increases in PKA,TRPV1,CGRP and substance P on the affected side.Compared to SNI group,the average ipsilateral PWT in the SNI+EA group increased significantly after EA treatment,while PKA levels,TRPV1,CGRP levels and SP expression all decreased significantly.Conclusion Electroacupuncture at low frequency can effectively relieve neuropathic pain,perhaps through down-regulation of PKA in the spinal cord and by decreasing pain hypersensitivity related to CGRP and SP.
