ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effects of propofol and sevoflurane on post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) after emergency surgery in trauma patients.Methods:A total of 160 trauma patients undergoing emergency surgery under general anesthesia were randomly divided into the propofol group and the sevoflurane group. The perioperative clinical data of the two groups were collected. The incidence of PTSD was evaluated by PCL-5 score one month after the operation in the two groups. The relevance of the injury time and PCL-5 score was assessed by Spearman correlation analysis. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors of PTSD.Results:The incidence of PTSD in the propofol group was significantly higher than that in the sevoflurane group at postoperative 1 month (24.0% vs 10.8%, P=0.034). The injury time was negatively correlated with PCL-5 score in the propofol group ( r=0.229, P<0.01). There was no correlation between the injury time and the PCL-5 score in the sevoflurane group ( r=0.001, P=0.804). Logistic regression analysis showed that the use of propofol was an independent risk factor for PTSD ( P=0.004). Conclusions:Sevoflurane anesthesia is more effective than propofol anesthesia in reducing the occurrence of PTSD in emergency surgery for trauma patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the influence of edaravin combined with cerebroside-kinin on the level of glial fiber acidic protein (GFAP) and ubiquitin carboxyl terminal-L1 (UCH-L1) in the treatment of severe craniocerebral injury.Methods From January 2016 to December 2017,a total of 123 patients with severe craniocerebral injury were selected in our hospital,and randomly(random number) assigned to the observation group (61 cases) and control group (62 cases).Patients in the control group were given cerebroside-kinin,and patients in the observation group were given cerebroside-kinin and edaravone.The acute physiology and chronic health evaluation score (APACHE Ⅱ),activities of daily living (ADL) score,serum malonaldehyde (MDA),superoxide dismutase (SOD),myeloperoxidase (MPO),matrix metalloprotein 9 (MMP-9),GFAP and UCH-L1 before and after treatment were observed.The side effects were also recorded.Results The APACHE Ⅱ score was significantly reduced in both groups after treatment (P=0.008;P=0.003),and was lower in the observation group than that in the control group (P=0.013).The ADL score of both groups increased after treatment (P=0.025;P=0.008),and was higher in the observation group than that in the control group (P=0.012).After treatment the levels of MDA,SOD and MPO in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P＜0.05);the level of MMP-9 in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P=0.012);the levels of GFAP and UCH-L 1 in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P=0.014;P=0.035).There was no significant difference of the total side effect incidence between the observation group and the control group (8.06％ vs 9.83％,x 2=0.088,P=0.719).Conclusions The treatment by edaravone combined with cerebroside-kinin on severe craniocerebral injury may effectively protect the nerve cells,improve nerve function,clinical efficacy and the body's antioxidant capacity,reduce the serum levels of GFAP,UCH-L1,and have better safety.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical value of platelet parameters in patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI) in plateau.Methods A total of 72 patients diagnosed as acute myocardial infarction in our department from January 2016 to June 2017 were enrolled into this study.Clinical data and outcomes were analyzed.Platelet parameters were measured within 24 h after AMI occurrence.The relationship between platelet distribution width (PDW),mean platelet volume (MPV),and the severity of disease,infarct size as well as short-term prognosis were further investigated.Results Compared with control group,PDW and MPV were positively correlated with the severity of disease (PPDW=0.039,PMPV=0.038) and infarct size (rPDW=0.305,P=0.009;rMPV=0.263,P=0.025).The AUC of PDW was 0.827,optimal operating point (OOP) was 16.3％,the AUC of MPV was 0.813,OOP was 13.1 fl,the AUC of GRACE was 0.865,OOP was 145.Conclusions PDW and MPV could be regarded as laboratory index to evaluate the severity of disease,infarct size,pathological changes of coronary artery and short-term prognosis of acute myocardial infarction in plateau.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the value of early trophic feeding on maintenance of the integrity of intestinal mucosa barrier in severe traumatic patients.Methods The seriously traumatic patients were eligible for enrollment to this study from January 1st,2014 to March 31st,2015 in the intensive care unit of Xiangcheng People's Hospital.All patients were randomly divided into early enteral nutrition (EEN)group and the control group.Within 12 to 24 hours after ICU admission,all patients were fed on enteral nutrition.In the EEN group,the nutrient was reached to 25％ of target nutrient amount [104.6 kJ/ (kg · d)],and in the control group,the nutrition was reached to 60％ of the target nutrient amount.Comparisons of feeding intolerance,incidence of newly developed lung infection,the total length of hospital stay,ICU medical costs,and the markers of mucosa barrier function including lactulose/mannitol ratios (L/M),serum lactic acid level,and diamine oxidase (the first day,the third day and the seventh day) between two groups were carried out.Results Of them,56 patients were treated with early enteral nutrition.Early enteral feeding intolerance and ICU associated infection complications were significantly lower in EEN group than those in control group (P =0.012,P =0.046).There were no significant differences in ICU associated infection complications,the length of ICU stay,the length of hospital stay,ICU medical costs,L/M ratios,D-lactic acid level and diamine oxidase concentration between the two groups (P=0.135,P=0.126,P =0.223,P =0.235).Conclusions Under the seriously traumatic stress,the significantly increased intestinal mucosal permeability will be occurred early.In patients with early trophic feeding,the intestinal mucous membrane barrier function can be improved,thus decreasing ICU associated infection complications and incidence of feeding intolerance.

ABSTRACT
Objective To determine the effects of the early enteric nutrition (EEN) up to scratch on the outcomes of the critical care patients with different degrees of severity of illness. Method There were 192 critically ill patients eligible for enrollment for study during the past 18 months in our ICU. They were classified by using APACHE Ⅱ scores. The aim of this retrospective analysis of the early enteric nutrition was to see if the enteric nufore, the patients were divided into two groups: up to scratch group and not up to scratch group. According to APACHE Ⅱ scores, the patients of each group were further divided into three sub-groups in terms of scores below 15, between15 and 25, and above 25, respectively. Results There were 62 patients in the group of EEN up to scratch, and 130 patients' EEN did not up to scratch. When the scores of APACHE Ⅱ were below 15, the length of hospital stay (LOS) was significantly shorter in group of EEN up to scratch in comparison with that of EEN not up to scratch (t = 6.453, P = 0.000). When the scores of APACHE Ⅱ were between15 and 25, the LOS in ICU (t = 3.966, P = 0.000), in hospital (t = 8.165,P = 0.000), The cost of medical care (t = 4.812,P= 0.000) and the mortality (x2 = 5.421,P = 0.038) were all significantly less in patients with EEN up to scratch. However, when the scores of APACHE Ⅱ were above 25, only the cost of medical care ( t = 7.364, P = 0.000) was significantly lower in patients of EEN up to scratch than that of EEN not up to scratch. Conclusions The EEN up to scratch can significantly improve the outcomes of critical patients and the clinical value of EEN up to scratch depends on the severity of illness.
