ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the clinical effect of different flow rates of transnasal humidified rapid-insufflation ventilatory exchange (Thrive) on hypoxic events during painless gastroscopy.Methods:Patients who underwent painless gastroscopy in Nanjing First Hospital from April to July 2020 were randomly selected by random number table method and assigned to Thrive groups of 30 L/min ( n=52), 50 L/min ( n=55) and 70 L/min ( n=54). The incidences of different degree of hypoxic events (including subclinical respiratory depression, hypoxia and severe hypoxia) and adverse events related to Thrive were recorded. Results:The total incidence of hypoxic events in the 70 L/min group was 0 (0/54), which was significantly lower than that in the 30 L/min group (21.3%, 11/52, χ2=12.75, P<0.001) and 50 L/min group (12.7%, 7/55, P=0.007). There were no significant differences in subclinical respiratory depression [13.5% (7/52) VS 5.5% (3/55), χ2=1.19, P=0.194] or hypoxia [7.7% (4/52) VS 7.3% (4/55), P=0.610] between 30 L/min group and 50 L/min group. No severe hypoxia occurred in any group. The oxygenation of patients with hypoxemia in 30 L/min and 50 L/min groups was improved (SpO 2>95%) after opening the airway by mandibular support. In addition, there were no significant differences in the incidence of adverse events except hypoxemia among the three groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:The flow rates of Thrive of 30 L/min, 50 L/min, and 70 L/min can prevent the occurrence of severe hypoxia during painless gastroscopy, and the flow rate of 70 L/min can further reduce the incidence of subclinical respiratory depression.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To compare the effects of five different types of videolaryngoscopes in patients with a simulated difficult airway.Methods:575 patients who needed endotracheal intubation in Nanjing Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University from May 2021 to September 2021 were randomly divided into 5 groups [UE videolaryngoscope group (U group), GlideScope videolaryngoscope group (G group), C-MAC videolaryngoscope group (C group), Airtraq videolaryngoscope group (A group) and A. P.advance videolaryngoscope group (AP group)], with 115 patients in each group. They all wore cervical collar to simulate difficult airway. The main observation index was the success rate of first endotracheal intubation. Secondary observation indicators included overall success rate, laryngoscope exposure field, intubation time, operator′s subjective score, cause of failure, adverse events, and complications of intubation.Results:The patients′ mouth opening degree was reduced from (46±6)mm to (24±4)mm ( P<0.05) after wearing the cervical collar; The success rate of the first endotracheal intubation were 96%(UE), 92%(C-MAC), 86%(GlideScope), 85%(Airtraq), and 60%(AP.Advance) respectively, with statistically significant difference ( P<0.05); Compared with AP group and G group, the incidence of soft tissue injury or bleeding in U group and C group were lower ( P<0.05); There were significant difference in the overall success rate of videolaryngoscopes, laryngoscope visual field exposure, intubation time, the subjective score of the operator and adverse events ( P<0.05); There was no significant difference in the complications of intubation among the groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Among 575 patients with a simulated difficult airway with limited neck mobility and limited mouth opening, there were significant differences in the use of five videolaryngoscopes. Among them, UE video laryngoscope had the highest first intubation success rate and lowest tissue trauma rate, C-MAC video laryngoscope, GlideScope video laryngoscope and Airtraq video laryngoscope followed in performance, while A. P.Advance video laryngoscope performed the worst.
ABSTRACT
Hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) is the "gold standard" for diagnosing portal hypertension and determining its severity, but its wide clinical application is limited due to its invasiveness and difficulties in operation. The replacement of HVPG by noninvasive methods has become a research hotspot in recent years; however, the accuracy of the existing serological and imaging methods remains to be discussed, and such methods cannot completely replace HVPG in clinical practice. Liver biopsy has been widely used in clinical practice for many years and is still an indispensable method for the diagnosis of some liver diseases. Recent studies have found that several pathological indicators after liver biopsy, such as collagen area, fibrous septal thickness, nodule size, microvascular density, and density and area of bile ducts and lymphatic vessels, can not only judge the severity of liver fibrosis, but also have a good correlation with portal venous pressure, which provides new ideas for diagnosing cirrhotic portal hypertension and evaluating the severity of portal hypertension.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of injecting drugs through fiberoptic bronchoscope (FOB) and epidural catheter in improving topical anesthesia for awake tracheal intubation in patients undergoing cervical surgery.Methods Fifty patients with cervical spine injury that requiring surgical treatment,aged 18-64 yr,of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,were divided into 2 groups (n=25 each) using a random number table method:FOB injection hole group (group Ⅰ) and FOB combined with epidural catheter group (group Ⅱ).In group Ⅰ,2％ lidocaine was sprayed through the FOB injection hole on the oropharynx posterior (2 ml),glottis above vocal cords (3 ml) and the site 5 cm below the glottis (2 ml).In group Ⅱ,2％ lidocaine was sprayed via the epidural catheter implanted through FOB injection hole on the oropharynx posterior (1 ml),the site above vocal cords (3 ml),the site immediately after crossing the glottis (1 ml),the site 5 cm below the glottis (1 ml),and 2％ lidocaine 1 ml was slowly injected into the site 5 cm below the glottis to protuberance via the epidural catheter.Awake nasotracheal intubation was then performed under FOB guidance at 5 min after administration in both groups.When patients presented with severe bucking during operation and did not tolerate severe bucking,the previous procedure was repeated for rescue.When severe bucking was not significantly improved after carrying out rescue measures,thyrocricoceniesis was performed and the patients were tracheally intubated.The development of hypertension,tachycardia and hyoxemia was recorded during anesthesia and intubation.The operation time,intubation time,success of intubation at first attempt,requirement for rescue measures and thyrocricocentesis were recorded.The development of bucking,body movement and laryngeal spasm were record during anesthesia and tracheal intubation.JOA score was used to evaluate the occurrence of accentuated spinal cord injury after intubation.Parents' satisfaction with intubation was recorded and scored on 2nd day after operation.Results Compared with group Ⅰ,the incidence of hypertension and tachycardia was significantly decreased,the operation time was prolonged,the requirement for rescue measures and incidence of thyrocricocentesis were decreased,the incidence of body movement and bucking was decreased,and the parents' satisfaction scores were increased (P＜0.05),and no significant change was found in intubation time,success rate of intubation at first attempt or incidence of hyoxemia in group Ⅱ (P＞0.05).Accentuated spinal cord injury or laryngeal spasm was not found in either group.Conclusion Injecting drugs through FOB and epidural catheter can achieve better efficacy of topical anesthesia for awake tracheal intubation with reduced adverse reactions than injecting drugs through FOB injection hole in patients undergoing cervical surgery.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the changes of serum C-X-C motif ligand 13 (CXCL13) concentration in senior patients undergoing total hip replacement and its role in post-operative dys-function(POCD).Methods Eighty consecutive senior patients aged 65-80 years with BMI 18.4-27.3 kg/m2,ASA physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ,were recruited and scheduled to undergo hip joint replacement operation.Neuropsychological test was performed 1-5 d after operation and patients were divided into POCD group and non-POCD group.Serum C reactive protein (CPR),procalcitonin (PCT),IL-6, TNF-α,CXCL13 concentration were detected 1 d before and 1,2,3,4,5 d after operation. Results A total of 21 (26%)patients developed POCD 1-5 d after operation (recruited in POCD group),and the other 59 patients were recruited in non-POCD group.Compared with the time point of 1 d before operation,serum CRP,PCT,IL-6,TNF-αand CXCL13 concentration were higher 1-5 d after operation in all patients (P<0.05).The concentrationsof these factors were higher in patients from POCD group than in those from non-POCD group 1-5 d after operation (P < 0.05). Conclusion The CXCL13 concentration insenior patients undergoing total hip replacement who devel-oped POCD were higher than in those who did not developed POCD.Whether it is correlated with POCD remains further study.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To investigate the effect of olfactory mucosal neural stem cells (OM-NSCs) on neuronal apoptosis in rats. Methods OM-NSCs were isolated from adult male Sprague-Dawley rats, and neurons were isolated from fetal Sprague-Dawley rats. The neurons were divided into blank group, control group and experiment group after culture in vitro, which were further cultured in nomal, cultured in nomal 24 hours after stimulation of interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and cultured with OM-NSCs 24 hours after stimulation of IL-1β, respectively, for 24 hours. The apoptosis of neurons was observed with double staining of TUNEL and microtubule-associated protein 2 antibodies. Results There were few apoptotic cells in the blank group, and very many in the control group; the apoptotic cells were fewer in the experiment group than in the control group (F=39.764, P<0.01).Conclusion OM-NSCs can significantly inhibit neuronal apoptosis, which may play a role in neuroprotection.
ABSTRACT
@#Spinal cord injury (SCI) often causes different degrees of sensory and motor dysfunction, resulting in permanent disability, with many complications and difficult to cure. Metabolomics, as a new developing technique, identifies specific biomarkers for diagnosis, treatment or prognosis judgement by analyzing the changes in the metabolites after individual stress, and can make the best treatment and rehabilitation program for the patients in the early stage of the disease. At present, some achievements have been made in the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis monitoring of spinal cord injury, and some potential biomarkers have been identified. However, the pathophysiology of spinal cord injury is not fully understood, and relevant biomarkers are also lacking in clinical trials.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of acetylated HMGB1 on cognitive function in rats with sepsis associated encephalopathy (SAE) and the effect of HMGB1 inhibitor.Methods Forty-eight males mice were randomly assigned to three groups (n=16): sham group (group S),cecal ligation puncture group (group C),cecal ligation puncture+sodium butyrate group (group B).Cecal ligation puncture was applied to establish the SAE model,and group S received sham operation.Rats in groups S and C were injected with normal saline 5 ml/kg 30 min and 4 h after CLP,respectively.The rats in group B were intraperitoneally injected with sodium butyrate 500 mg/kg 0.5 h and 4 h after CLP,respectively.All animals were performed Morris water maze test on 4th day after operation,and the exploring time of space exploration experiments were assessed on 7th day after CLP surgery.IL-6,BDNF,HMGB1 and acetylated HMGB1 expression in hippocampus of all rats were determined by Western Blot.Results Compared with group S,the latency of rats in group C was longer and the exploring time was shorter (P<0.05).Compared with group C,the latency of rats in group B was shorter and the exploring time was longer (P<0.05).Compared with group S,the expression of IL-6,HMGB1 and acetylated HMGB1 in group C increased (P<0.05) and the level of BDNF decreased (P<0.05).Compared with group C,the expression of IL-6,HMGB1 and acetylated HMGB1 in group B decreased (P<0.05) and the level of BDNF increased (P<0.05).Conclusion HMGB1 inhibitor sodium butyrate can inhibit the expression of acetylated HMGB1 in the hippocampus of SAE rats,and reduce the cognitive impairment induced by sepsis.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the effect of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) on the expression of high mobility group box-1 protein (HMGB1) in peritoneal macrophages of septic mice and its possible mechanisms.Methods:Ihe mouse peritoneal macrophages were isolated and cultured by conventional methods.The model of inflammation was established by using lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to incubate with mouse peritoneal macrophages.The PGE2,prostaglandin E receptor (EP) 4 agonist,EP4 RNAi,and DN.CREB inhibitory plasmid were used to interfere with the LPS-treated mouse peritoneal macrophage.The levels of HMGB 1 was determined by Western blot.Results:Compared with LPS alone treatment,the expression of HMGB 1 in peritoneal macrophages was increased obviously after 24 h by treatment with PGE2 and LPS,and it was also increased after the combined treatment of EP4 receptor agonist with LPS for 24 h (both P0.05);compared with LPS alone treatment,the combined treatment of EP4 receptor agonist with LPS for 24 h could up-regulate the phosphorylation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and protein kinase B (Akt) thr308 (P<0.05),which were blocked by EGFR inhibitor.Once Akt specific inhibitor was used before EP4 and LPS treatment,the expression of HMGB1 was declined (P<0.05).Conclusion:PGE2 can up-regulate the expression of HMGB1 in sepsis of peritoneal macrophages through EP4 receptor,which may be related to the activation of EGFR/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the influence of dexmedetomidine for nasal administration by three different concentrations on the stress response in patients with general anaesthesia during the peri-extubation period of gynecological surgery and to explore the optimized dosage.Methods Eighty patients undergoing general anaesthesia were randomly divided into four groups:control group (group C),and three different doses of intranasal dexmedetomidine,groups D1,D2,D3 receiving intranasal dexmedetomidine 0.6,1.2 and 1.8 μg/kg 30 min before the end of the operation,respectively.Group C was given the same volume of saline.Heart rate (HR),mean arterial pressure (MAP) and ratepressure-product (RPP) were recorded immediately after intranasal administration (T1),the end of the surgery (T2),recovery time (T3),extubation time (T4),1 min after extubation (T5),5 min after extubation (T6) and 10 min after extubation (T7).Blood samples were taken at T1,T2,T4 and T6 to detect the serum concentrations of norepinephrine (NE) and cortisol (Cor).Postoperative recovery outcomes were recorded.Results Compared with group C,MAP,HR and RPP at T3-T5 in group D1 were reduced significantly (P＜0.05).In addition,those were all decreased in groups D2 and D3 at T2-T7 (P＜0.05).Compared with group C,the serum concentrations of NE and Cor at T4 and T6 in group D1,at T2,T4 and T6 in groups D2,D3 were decreased obviously (P＜0.05).Awaken time,extubation time and PACU stay time were shortened significantly in groups C,D1 and D2 compared with group D3 (P＜0.05).Conclusion Intranasal administration of dexmedetomidine 30 min before the end of the operation could attenuate the extubation reaction and the adverse reaction of cardiovascular system during the peri-extubation period.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for implementing pharmaceutical care for secondary prevention of patients with myocardial infarction and improving medication compliance by clinical pharmacist. METHODS:A questionnaire survey was con-ducted for 200 secondary prevention patients with myocardial infarction in our hospital,and divided into good medication compli-ance group and poor medication compliance group by Morisky-Green(MG)standard scoring evaluation, and the reasons affecting the medication compliance were statistically analyzed. RESULTS:Totally 200 questionnaires were sent out,200 were effectively re-ceived with effective recovery of 100%. 137 patients showed good medication compliance and 62 patients showed poor medication compliance,there were statistically significant differences in the age,monthly income,whether there was a medical insurance or not,whether they live alone or not and whether they had more than 4 oral drugs between 2 groups(P<0.05). The reasons of poor medication compliance were forgetting to take the medicine,too many kinds of medicine,too expensive to afford the medicine, lacking the knowledge of the disease and poor medication guide. CONCLUSIONS:The poor medication compliance of patients with secondary prevention of myocardial infarction is closely related with elder age,low income,no medical insurance,living alone,and taking more than 4 kinds of medicine. Clinical pharmacists should play their professional expertise,repeatedly supervise patients'medication compliance and finally improve the efficacy and patients'quality of life.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the role of hippocampal cyclophilin D (CypD) in sepsis-associated encephalopathy in rats.Methods A total of 36 adult male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 3-4 months,weighing 300-400 g,were randomly divided into 3 groups (n =12 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (Sham group),sepsis group (S group),and sepsis + CypD inhibitor cyclosporin A group (CsA group).Sepsis was induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP).Cyclosporin A 6 mg/kg was injected intraperitoneally at 30 min before CLP in group CsA.All the animals underwent Morris water maze test on 4th day after CLP.The animals were sacrificed after the test,and the hippocampus was isolated for determination of the expression of cytochrome c (Cyt c),CypD,caspase-3,brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF),phosphorylated protein kinase A (p-PKA),and phosphorylated cyclic adenosine monophosphate response element-binding protein (p-CREB).Results Compared with group Sham,the escape latency was significantly prolonged,the space exploration time was shortened,the expression of Cyt c,CypD,caspase-3,p-PKA and p-CREB was up-regulated,and the expression of BDNF was down-regulated in S and CsA groups (P＜0.05).Compared with group S,the escape latency was significantly shortened,the space exploration time was prolonged,the expression of Cyt c,CypD,caspase-3,p-PKA and p-CREB was down-regulated,and the expression of BDNF was up-regulated in group CsA (P＜0.05).Conclusion Hippocampal CypD may be involved in the pathophysiological mechanism of sepsis-associated encephalopathy,and the downstream mechanism is probably related to promotion of activation of PKA/CREB signaling pathway in rats.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effect of exogeneous adiponectin on hippocampal advanced glycation end products (AGEs)-reactive oxygen species (ROS)-endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) pathway in aged mice with postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD).Methods Thirty-two healthy male C57BL/6 mice, aged 18 months, weighing 20-25 g, were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=8 each) using a random number table: control group (group C), POCD group, exogeneous adiponectin group (group APN), and vehicle group (group Veh).Splenectomy was performed to establish the POCD model in aged mice anesthetized with intraperitoneal pentobarbital sodium.In group APN, adiponectin 0.1 μg/g (in 2 μl of phosphate buffer solution) was injected into the lateral cerebral ventricle at 30 min before establishing the model.Phosphate buffer solution 2 μl was given at 30 min before establishing the model in group Veh.Cognitive function was assessed on day 7 after surgery.The mice were then sacrificed, and the hippocampus was harvested for determination of the area of AGE deposition (by immunohistochemistry), levels of ROS (by flow cytometry), and levels of glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78), C/EBP-homologous protein (CHOP), caspase-12 and ROS (using Western blot).Results Compared with group S, the freezing time in the contextual fear conditioning test was significantly shortened, the area of AGE deposition and levels of ROS, CHOP and caspase-12 were increased, and the level of GRP78 was decreased in POCD, APN and Veh groups.Compared with POCD and Veh groups, the freezing time in the contextual fear conditioning test was significantly prolonged, the area of AGE deposition and levels of ROS, CHOP and caspase-12 were decreased, and the level of GRP78 was increased in group APN.Conclusion Exogeneous adiponectin decreases the occurrence of POCD probably by blocking hippocampal AGEs-ROS-ERS pathway in aged mice.
