Assessment on the Efficacy and Safety of Aidi Injection Combined with Vinorelbine and Cisplatin for Treatment of Advanced Nonsmall Cell Lung Cancer / 中华医学杂志(英文版)

<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of vinorelbine and cisplatin (NP chemotherapy) alone or in combination with Aidi injection for the treatment of advanced nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Pertinent publications were identified in PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, CNKI, CQVIP, and Wanfang databases, up to December 8, 2015. After quality assessment of all included randomized controlled trials evaluating Aidi injection combined with NP chemotherapy for the treatment of advanced NSCLC, a meta-analysis was performed by Review Manager 5.2 and STATA 12.0 for statistical analyses.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Twelve studies including 509 and 503 cases in the experimental and control groups, respectively, were finally analyzed. The meta-analysis revealed that when cisplatin dose ranging from 20 to 40 mg/m 2 , combination of Aidi injection and NP chemotherapy was statistically different compared with NP chemotherapy alone in enhancing efficiency (relative risk [RR] = 1.24, 95% confidence interval [CI] [1.05-1.47], P = 0.010) and reducing the incidence of Grade II or above nausea and vomiting (RR = 0.49, 95% CI [0.30-0.80], P = 0.005). Meanwhile, with cisplatin ranging from 80 to 120 mg/m 2 , no significant differences in efficiency (RR = 1.11, 95% CI [0.87-1.42], P = 0.390) and Grade II or above nausea and vomiting (RR = 0.88, 95% CI [0.71-1.10], P = 0.260) were obtained. In addition, Aidi injection combined with NP chemotherapy was superior to NP chemotherapy alone in improving the quality of life, alleviating Grade II or above leukopenia and thrombocytopenia.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Aidi injection combined with NP chemotherapy can enhance efficiency, improve the quality of life, and decrease adverse effects in patients with advanced NSCLC.</p>

Effects of diclofenac sodium suppositories on emergence agitation after sevoflurane maintenance in children undergoing adenotonsillectomy / 上海第二医科大学学报

Objective To investigate the effects of diclofenac sodium suppositories on emergence agitation after sevoflurane maintenance in children undergoing adenotonsilleetomy. Methods Forty-five patients selected for adenotonsillectomy were randomly divided into three groups (n=15). Patients in group 1 were given diclofenac sodium suppositories 12.5 mg right after intubation, those in group 2 were given diclofenac sodium suppositories 12.5 mg immediately after operation, while those in control group were not treated with diclofenac sodium suppositories before or after operation. The extubation time and time spent in post-anesthctic ICU (PACU) were recorded, the modified Aldrete score and pain score were assessed after entrance into PACU, and pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium (PAED) scale was administered 10, 20 and 30 rain after entrance into PACU. Results There was no significant difference in extubation time and time spent in PACU among three groups(P>0.05). Ten minutes after entrance into PACU, the PAED score of group 1 was significantly lower than those of group 2 and control group(P<0.05), while there was no significant difference between the latter two groups(P>0.05). Twenty and thirty minutes after entrance into PACU, the PAED scores of group 1 and group 2 were significantly lower than that of control group(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the modified Aldrete score right after entrance into PACU among three groups. The pain scores of group 1 and group 2 were signifiantly lower than that of control group(P< 0.05). Conclusion Diclofenac sodium suppositories can decrease the incidence and severity of emergence agitation after sevoflurane maintenance in children undergoing adenotonsillectomy.

Effect of different position and CO(2) pneumoperitoneum on deep vein hemodynamics of lower limb / 中华胃肠外科杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the effect of laparoscopic surgery position and CO(2) pneumoperitoneum on deep vein hemodynamics of lower limb.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Color Doppler ultrasound was adopted to evaluate the diameter, blood velocity and the amount of the blood flow in the lower extremity of 37 gastric cancer patients undergone laparoscopic surgery from November 2007 to August 2008 in our hospital. Three kinds of position(prostration, head-down tilt position and feet-down tilt position) before the establishment of pneumoperitoneum and three different pressure of CO(2) pneumoperitoneum( 8 mm Hg, 12 mm Hg, 16 mm Hg ) after the establishment of pneumoperitoneum were applied during laparoscopic surgery.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Compared with the stage of prostration before the pneumoperitoneum, the femoral vein diameter decreased (P<0.05), the velocity and the amount of blood flow increased (P<0.01, P<0.05) in head-down tilt position; the femoral vein diameter increased(P<0.01), the velocity and the amount of blood flow decreased(P<0.01, P<0.05) in feet-down tilt position or the establishment of pneumoperitoneum. Furthermore, with the increase of pneumoperitoneum pressure, the femoral vein diameter increased, the velocity and the amount of blood flow decreased(P<0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The head-down tilt position is conducive for the blood to recirculate, which will degrade the risk of deep vein thrombosis after the laparoscopy. The feet-down tilt position and CO(2) pneumoperitoneum can interfere the recirculation of blood, and increase the risk of deep vein thrombosis after the laparoscopy.</p>

Changes of respiratory and hemodynamic functions in children with laparoscopic Nissen's fundoplication / 上海第二医科大学学报

Objective To observe the changes of respiratory and hemodynamic functions in children with different age undergoing laparoscopic Nissen's fundoplication(LNF). Methods Thirty-three children with LNF were divided into three groups according to the age: group Ⅰ,1 to 12 months,n=13;group Ⅱ,1 to 3 years old,n=10;and group Ⅲ,4 to 7 years,n=10.Heart rate(HR),mean arterial pressure,Ppeak,compliance of the respiratory system(CRS) and end-tidal carbon dioxide pressure(PETCO2) were recorded 5 min before pneumoperitoneum(T0),10 min(T1),60 min(T2) after pneumoperitoneum and 10 min after deflation(T3),and parameters of blood gas analysis such as PaCO2 were measured at the same time. Results Compared with those at T0,HR,Ppeak,PETCO2 and the difference between PaCO2 and PETCO2(Pa-ETCO2)were significantly increased at T1 and T2,while CRS was significantly decreased.The most significant changes were found in group Ⅰ. Conclusion The changes of respiratory and hemodynamic functions are observed in children undergoing LNF,and anesthesia management should be enhanced for those within 1 to 12 months old who experience the most significant changes.
