Objective:To evaluate the correlation between ultrasound parameters of internal carotid artery blood flow and regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rScO 2) in elderly patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Methods:Sixty-four elderly patients undergoing elective CABG under CPB, aged 60-80 yr, regardless of gender, with body mass index of 18.1-28.9 kg/m 2, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅱ or Ⅲ, with New York Heart Association class Ⅱ or Ⅲ, with left ventricular ejection fraction≥50%, were selected. The rScO 2 and ultrasonic parameters of internal carotid artery including peak systolic velocity (PSV-ICA), end-diastolic velocity (EDV-ICA), diameter (D-ICA) and blood flow volume (Q-ICA) were recorded before anesthesia induction (T 0), at surgical skin incision (T 1), at 30 and 60 min of CPB (mean value was calculated, T 2), and at 30 and 60 min after termination of CPB (mean value was calculated, T 3). The ratio of unilateral internal carotid artery blood flow to cardiac output (Q/CO) was calculated. The receiver operating characteristic curve was used to analyze the accuracy of ultrasound parameters of internal carotid artery blood flow in predicting rScO 2 < 60%. Results:PSV-ICA was positively correlated with rScO 2 at T 0, T 1 and T 3 ( P<0.05), but no correlation was found between PSV-ICA and rScO 2 at T 2 ( P>0.05). There was no correlation between EDV-ICA and rScO 2 at each time point ( P>0.05). Q-ICA was positively correlated with rScO 2 at each time point ( P<0.05). Q/CO was not correlated with rScO 2 at T 1 ( P>0.05), but Q/CO was positively correlated with rScO 2 at T 2 and T 3 ( P<0.05). During the non-CPB period (T 0, T 1, T 3), the cutoff values of PSV-ICA and Q-ICA in predicting rScO 2< 60% were 51.35 cm/s and 283.5 ml/min respectively, the sensitivity was 0.900 and 0.900 respectively, and the specificity was 0.610 and 0.857 respectively (AUC=0.761, P=0.006; AUC=0.903, P< 0.001). During the CPB period, the cutoff values of Q-ICA and Q/CO in predicting rScO 2<60% were 296.5 ml/min and 5.84% respectively, the sensitivity was 0.900 and 0.800, and the specificity was 0.545 and 0.659 (AUC=0.764, P=0.001; AUC=0.748, P=0.002), respectively. Conclusions:PSV-ICA and Q-ICA are positively correlated with rScO 2 during the non-CPB period, and Q-ICA and Q/CO are positively correlated with rScO 2 during the CPB period in elderly patients undergoing CABG. PSV-ICA, Q-ICA and Q/CO can accurately predict rScO 2<60%.

Objective To assess the impact of intravenous esketamine administered prior to car-diopulmonary bypass(CPB)initiation on ventricular function and internal carotid artery blood flow in pa-tients undergoing heart valve replacement surgery.Methods Sixty patients underwent elective CPB heart valve replacement,38 males and 22 females,aged 18-75 years,BMI 18.5-30.0 kg/m2,ASA physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ,NYHA cardiac function classification Ⅰ-Ⅲ,and a left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)of≥45％,were selected.The patients were randomly divided into two groups:esketamine group(group E)and normal saline group(group C),30 patients in each group.Total intravenous anesthesia was used during the operation.Following the initiation of CPB,group E received an intravenous infusion of es-ketamine at a rate of 0.5 mg·kg-1·h-1 until the conclusion of the procedure,while group C received an equivalent volume of normal saline concurrently at the same rate.HR,MAP,CVP,and cardiac output index(CI)were recorded before anesthesia induction,during skin resection,and within 60 minutes after stopping CPB.LVEF,left ventricular global longitudinal strain(GLS),global longitudinal time-to-peak strain standard deviation(GLTSD),global circumferential strain(GCS),global circumferential time-to-peak strain standard deviation(GCTSD),right ventricular ejection fraction(RVEF),right ventricular GLS,and GLTSD were obtained during skin resection,within 40 minutes of CPB,and 60 minutes after stopping CPB.rScO2,BIS,concentrations of Hb and lactic acid(Lac),peak systolic flow velocity(SPV),quantity of flow-internal carotid artery(Q-ICA),and blood flow resistance index(RI)were recorded before anesthesia induction,during skin resection,within 40 minutes of CPB,and within 60 minutes after stopping CPB.Concentrations of cardiac troponin Ⅰ(cTnⅠ),alanine aminotransferase(ALT),creatinine(Cr),and neuron-specific enolase(NSE)were recorded before anesthesia induction and 6 hours after operation.Spon-taneous resuscitation after CPB,postoperative extubation time,duration of ICU stay,total hospital stay,in-cidence of adverse cardiac events,and 30-day postoperative mortality were recorded.Results Compared with group C,group E exhibited a significant increase in CI within 60 minutes after stopping CPB(P＜0.05).The LVEF,RVEF,and right ventricular GLS demonstrated significant increases within 60 minutes after stopping CPB in group E compared with group C(P＜0.05).The left ventricular GLS and left ven-tricular GCTSD displayed significant increases 30 minutes after stopping CPB in group E compared with group C.The RI exhibited a significant increase within 40 minutes of CPB in group E compared with group C(P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in cTnⅠ,ALT,Cr,NSE,spontaneous resuscitation affter CPB,postoperative extubation time,duration of ICU stay,total hospital stay,incidence of cardiac adverse events,and 30-day postoperative mortality between the two groups.Conclusion Administration of esket-amine following the onset of CPB in patients undergoing cardiac surgery demonstrates a significant elevation in CI post-CPB cessation.Furthermore,it may augment ventricular longitudinal strain,thereby enhancing myocardial contraction,leading to increased postoperative ventricular ejection fraction,and sustaining hemo-dynamic stability.

Objective To explore the effect of traditional Chinese medicine enema combined with acupoint massage on postoperative intestinal function recovery.Methods A total of 80 patients with abdominal surgery admitted to First Affiliated Hospital of Huzhou University from January 2022 to June 2023 were selected and divided into study group and control group according to random number table method,with 40 cases in each group.The control group was treated with conventional Western medicine,while the study group was treated with traditional Chinese medicine enema combined with acupoint massage on the basis of conventional Western medicine treatment.The therapeutic effect,postoperative recovery time,gastrointestinal hormone level,abdominal distension pain and gastrointestinal reaction score were compared between two groups.Results Postoperative bowel sound recovery time,first anal defecation time and full-flow diet recovery time in study group were significantly shorter than those in control group(P<0.05).At 5 days after surgery,the levels of motilin(MTL),gastrin(GAS)and gastric inhibitory peptide(GIP)in two groups were significantly higher than those in this group at 1 day after surgery(P<0.05).The levels of MTL,GAS and GIP in study group were significantly higher than those in control group(P<0.05).At 5 days after surgery,abdominal distension score and gastrointestinal reaction score in two groups were significantly lower than those in this group 1 day after surgery(P<0.05),and abdominal distension score and gastrointestinal reaction score in study group were significantly lower than those in control group(P<0.05).The total effective rate of study group was significantly higher than that of control group(χ2=3.914,P=0.048).Conclusion Traditional Chinese medicine enema combined with acupoint massage can effectively shorten the recovery time of intestinal function,improve the level of gastrointestinal hormone,relieve abdominal distension pain and gastrointestinal reaction after abdominal operation,and the effect is significant,worthy of clinical application.

The use of light energy to drive carbon dioxide (CO₂) reduction for production of chemicals is of great significance for relieving environmental pressure and solving energy crisis. Photocapture, photoelectricity conversion and CO₂ fixation are the key factors affecting the efficiency of photosynthesis, and thus also affect the efficiency of CO₂ utilization. To solve the above problems, this review systematically summarizes the construction, optimization and application of light-driven hybrid system from the perspective of combining biochemistry and metabolic engineering. We introduce the latest research progress of light-driven CO₂ reduction for biosynthesis of chemicals from three aspects: enzyme hybrid system, biological hybrid system and application of these hybrid system. In the aspect of enzyme hybrid system, many strategies were adopted such as improving enzyme catalytic activity and enhancing enzyme stability. In the aspect of biological hybrid system, many methods were used including enhancing biological light harvesting capacity, optimizing reducing power supply and improving energy regeneration. In terms of the applications, hybrid systems have been used in the production of one-carbon compounds, biofuels and biofoods. Finally, the future development direction of artificial photosynthetic system is prospected from the aspects of nanomaterials (including organic and inorganic materials) and biocatalysts (including enzymes and microorganisms).

Hepatocellular carcinoma is a malignant tumor with a high incidence and morta-lity, which adversely affects the life quality of patients. For hepatocellular carcinoma, surgical trea-tment is advocated to stop the proliferation and metastasis of tumor cells by removing the diseased tissue and prolong the survival time. At the same time, the combination of scientific nursing services during surgery can ensure the smooth completion of surgery, reduce the occurrence of complica-tions, and promote early recovery of patients. The authors review the application and progress of dual-linked collaborative care model in patients undergoing liver cancer surgery, with the aim of providing reference for clinical research on the nursing plan for patients undergoing liver cancer surgery.

Objective:To explore the relation of plasma Elabela with 3-month prognoses in large vessel occlusion-acute ischemic stroke (LVO-AIS) patients accepted endovascular thrombectomy (EVT).Methods:A prospective study was performed; 94 LVO-AIS patients aceepted EVT in Department of Neurology, Anhui Provincal Hospital, Anhui Medical University from August 2020 to August 2022 were selected. Plasma Elabela was detected before EVT, and 24 and 72 h after EVT. Modified Rankin scale (mRS) was used to evaluate the prognoses of the patients 3 months after EVT; differences in clinical data and plasma Elabela level between the good prognosis group and poor prognosis group were compared. Independent influencing factors for prognoses of LVO-AIS patients 3 months after EVT were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the efficacy of Elabela in predicting prognoses of patients with LVO-AIS 3 months after EVT.Results:Compared with the poor prognosis group, the good prognosis group had significantly lower percentages of patients with stroke history and diabetes, and lower NIHSS scores at admission ( P<0.05). Elabela level in the good prognosis group was significantly higher than that in the poor prognosis group 72 h after EVT ( P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that stroke history ( OR=0.148, P=0.037, 95% CI: 0.025-0.889), diabetes mellitus ( OR=0.148, P=0.037, 95% CI: 0.025-0.889), hypertension history ( OR=3.488, P=0.024, 95% CI: 1.177-10.339), and Elabela level 72 h after EVT ( OR=1.064, P=0.005, 95% CI: 1.019-1.111) were independent influencing factors for prognoses of LVO-AIS patients 3 months after EVT. ROC curve showed that area under ROC curve of plasma Elabela level 72 h after EVT in predicting prognosies of LVO-AIS patients 3 months after surgery was 0.718 ( P<0.001, 95% CI: 0.614-0.822). Conclusion:Plasma Elabela level 72 h after EVT may be a potential prognostic biomarker for LVO-AIS patients after EVT.

Background: and Purpose To examine the clinical and safety outcomes after endovascular treatment (EVT) for acute basilar artery occlusion (BAO) with different anesthetic modalities. Methods: This was a retrospective analysis using data from the Endovascular Treatment for Acute Basilar Artery Occlusion (ATTENTION) registry. Patients were divided into two groups defined by anesthetic modality performed during EVT: general anesthesia (GA) or non-general anesthesia (non-GA). The association between anesthetic management and clinical outcomes was evaluated in a propensity score matched (PSM) cohort and an inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) cohort to adjust for imbalances between the two groups. Results: Our analytic sample included 1,672 patients from 48 centers. The anesthetic modality was GA in 769 (46.0%) and non-GA in 903 (54.0%) patients. In our primary analysis with the PSM-based cohort, non-GA was comparable to GA concerning the primary outcome (adjusted common odds ratio [acOR], 1.01; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.82 to 1.25; P=0.91). Mortality at 90 days was 38.4% in the GA group and 35.8% in the non-GA group (adjusted risk ratio, 0.95; 95% CI, 0.83 to 1.08; P=0.44). In our secondary analysis with the IPTW-based cohort, the anesthetic modality was significantly associated with the distribution of modified Rankin Scale at 90 days (acOR: 1.45 [95% CI: 1.20 to 1.75]). Conclusion In this nationally-representative observational study, acute ischemic stroke patients due to BAO undergoing EVT without GA had similar clinical and safety outcomes compared with patients treated with GA. These findings provide the basis for large-scale randomized controlled trials to test whether anesthetic management provides meaningful clinical effects for patients undergoing EVT.

SARS-CoV-2 infection causes complicated clinical manifestations with variable multi-organ injuries, however, the underlying mechanism, in particular immune responses in different organs, remains elusive. In this study, comprehensive transcriptomic alterations of 14 tissues from rhesus macaque infected with SARS-CoV-2 were analyzed. Compared to normal controls, SARS-CoV-2 infection resulted in dysregulation of genes involving diverse functions in various examined tissues/organs, with drastic transcriptomic changes in cerebral cortex and right ventricle. Intriguingly, cerebral cortex exhibited a hyperinflammatory state evidenced by significant upregulation of inflammation response-related genes. Meanwhile, expressions of coagulation, angiogenesis and fibrosis factors were also up-regulated in cerebral cortex. Based on our findings, neuropilin 1 (NRP1), a receptor of SARS-CoV-2, was significantly elevated in cerebral cortex post infection, accompanied by active immune response releasing inflammatory factors and signal transmission among tissues, which enhanced infection of the central nervous system (CNS) in a positive feedback way, leading to viral encephalitis. Overall, our study depicts a multi-tissue/organ transcriptomic landscapes of rhesus macaque with early infection of SARS-CoV-2, and provides important insights into the mechanistic basis for COVID-19-associated clinical complications.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of inhalation of sevoflurane during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) on early postoperative brain injury in the patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement.Methods:Forty-two American Society of Anesthesiaologists physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ patients of either sex, aged 40-70 yr, weighing 47-86 kg, scheduled for elective single valve replacement under CPB, were divided into 3 groups ( n=14 each) using a random number table method: control group (group C), combined intravenous-inhalational anesthesia group (group CA) and sevoflurane group (group S). During CPB, propofol 4-6 mg·kg -1·h -1 was intravenously infused in group C, propofol 2-3 mg·kg -1·h -1 was intravenously infused, and 0.5 MAC sevoflurane was inhaled via the membrane oxygenator in group CA, and 1.0-1.5 MAC sevoflurane was inhaled via the membrane oxygenator in group S. The anesthesia and sedation index values were maintained at 40-60 during operation in the three groups.Blood samples were taken from arteries before anesthesia induction (T 1), at 30 min and 6 and 24 h after termination of CPB (T 2-4) for determination of plasma concentrations of neuron-specific enolase (NSE) and Tau protein. Results:Compared with group C, the plasma concentration of NSE was significantly decreased at T 2, 3, and plasma concentration of Tau protein was decreased at T 2-4 in group S, and the plasma concentration of Tau protein was decreased at T 2 in group CA ( P<0.05). Compared with group CA, the plasma concentration of NSE was significantly decreased at T 2, 3, and the plasma concentration of Tau protein was decreased at T 2-4 in group S ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Inhalation of sevoflurane during CPB can reduce early postoperative brain injury to a certain extent in the patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement.
