ABSTRACT
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a kind of transcripts which are longer than 200nt and have not protein-coding ability due to the lack of an open reading frame. However, lncRNAs can be involved in tumorigenesis and progression in various ways at the transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels. Bladder cancer associated transcript 1 (BLACAT1) as a lncRNA located on human chromosome 1q32.1, is ectopic expression in various tumors (bladder cancer, gastric malignant tumor, lung carcinoma, et al) and can regulate tumor cell proliferation, anti-apoptosis, invasion and metastasis by different mechanisms leading to occurrence and development of tumors. In this review, we summarized current studies of the functions and mechanisms of BLACAT1 in malignant tumors.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the effects of two kinds of lidocaine gel indwelling catheter on male patients with general anesthesia during recovery period. Methods A total of 90 cases of male patients with general anesthesia were selected and divided into experimental group and control group by random digits table method,45 cases in each group. The experimental group was given lidocaine gel injection indwelling catheter urethral surface anesthesia, the control group will lidocaine gel evenly to the catheter indwelling catheter. The incidence of catheter related bladder irritation and restlessness were observed during the recovery period of general anesthesia. Results The incidence of catheter related bladder irritation in grade 0, I, II, III during the recovery period of general anesthesia were 28, 14, 3, 0 cases in the experimental group and 7, 23, 12, 3 cases in the control group, there was significant difference between 2 groups (Z=1500, P<0.01). The incidence of restlessness in grade 0, I, II and III during the recovery period of general anesthesia were 27, 18, 0 and 0 cases, respectively in the experimental group and 7, 20, 9, and 9 cases in the control group, respectively. The difference between the 2 groups was statistically significant (Z=1435.5, P<0.01). Conclusions Lidocaine gel injection into the urethra surface anesthesia can effectively improve the comfort of male patients during the recovery period of general anesthesia.
