ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effect of goal-directed fluid therapy(GDFT)under the guidance of LIDCOrapid hemodynamic monitor on postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV)of patients after gynecological laparoscopic surgery.Methods:A total of 90 patients who underwent laparoscopic extensive hysterectomy under general anesthesia in Affiliated Hospital of Shandong Second Medical University from August 2020 to June 2021 were selected,and they were divided into observation group and control group as random number table,with 45 cases in each group.Patients in control group supplemented fluid according to the guidance of urine output and mean arterial pressure(MAP).Patients in observation group supplemented fluid according to GDFT under guidance of stroke volume variation(SVV).The MAP values,heart rates(HR),SVV values and cardiac index(CI)values at the 10th min after patients entered the operation room(T0),the 3rd min after anesthesia induction(T1),and the 3rd min(T2),the 30th min(T3)and the 1st h(T4)after Terndelenburg position,and the time of completing surgery(T5)were observed.In addition,the intraoperative intake and output volume of liquid,the indicators of gastrointestinal function recovery after surgery,and the length of stay also were observed.The PONV incidence of main outcome indicators,and the PONV scores of postoperative 0-6h(T6),6-12 h(T7),12-24 h(T8)and 24-48 h(T9)of secondary outcome indicators,as well as the number of patients who received the treatment of antiemetic compensation after surgery,were analyzed.Results:The PONV incidence of observation group was significantly lower than that of control group(x2=6.40,P<0.05).The PONV scores of postoperative T6 and T7 of observation group were significantly lower than those of control group(t=4.92,3.42,P<0.05),respectively.The HR and CI value at T4 of observation group were significantly higher than those of control group(t=0.73,0.64,P<0.05),while the SVV of observation group increased from T3 to T5,with significant differences(t=2.28,3.42,4.10,P<0.05),respectively.The intraoperative crystalline fluid input and total infusion volume decreased,while colloidal fluid input increased,and the differences of them between two groups were significant(t=15.10,12.36,8.19,P<0.05),respectively.The postoperative exhaust time,defecation time and feeding time of observation group were significantly earlier than these of control group(t=3.79,2.09,2.54,P<0.05),respectively.But there was no statistical difference in the length of stay between the two groups.Conclusion:GDFT,which is guided by LIDCOrapid hemodynamic monitor,may decrease the incidence of PONV of gynecological laparoscopic surgery and the severity of PONV within 12 hours after surgery.
ABSTRACT
To evaluate the clinical effects and pathological characteristics of gastric tumors of fundic gland type treated with endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), data of 7 patients who treated by ESD and whose postoperative pathology indicated gastric adenocarcinoma of fundic gland type or gastric oxyntic gland adenoma in Endoscopic Center of Beijing Chao-Yang Hospital of Capital Medical University from August 2018 to June 2022 were collected. The clinical characteristics, surgical complications, preoperative and postoperative pathological data and follow-up data were evaluated. The lesions of the 7 patients were all located at gastric fundus, and were treated by ESD successfully. No bleeding, perforation or other complications occurred during and after the operation. Postoperative pathology showed that tumor cells originated from deep mucosa with an invasive growth pattern. Most of tumor surfaces were covered with normal concave epithelium. Tumors infiltrated into submucosa in 4 patients, and submucosa infiltration depth was more than 500 μm (550 μm) in 1 patient. Immunohistochemistry showed that MUC-6 was diffusely positive, indicating that the tumor originated from the main cell source. The expressions of MUC-2, MUC-5AC, CDX-2, CD10, and CgA were negative in all cases. With the mean follow-up time of 21 months, the ulcer healed well after the operation, with no recurrence. Gastric tumors of fundic gland type have relatively unique biological characteristics, and ESD is the preferred treatment. In addition, the histological characteristics can be used to differentiate from other gastric tumors by immunohistochemistry.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the safety and effectiveness of endoscopic retrograde biliary drainage ( ERBD ) and endoscopic nasobiliary drainage ( ENBD ) in treatment of acute cholangitis. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on data of 272 patients with acute cholangitis who underwent emergent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography ( ERCP ) in Beijing Chaoyang Hospital from January 2009 to June 2017. Patients were divided into ERBD group ( n=143) and ENBD group ( n=129) according to the drainage measures. In the ERBD group, there were 63 cases of gradeⅠ(mild) acute cholangitis, 51 of grade Ⅱ ( moderate) , and 29 of grade Ⅲ ( severe) , and the corresponding cases in the ENBD group were 54, 37 and 38, respectively. The rate of improvement of inflammation, ERCP-related complications and interventions to drainage were compared between the two groups in all patients and each grade. Results The rates of improvement of inflammation in the ERBD group and the ENBD group were 89. 5% (128/143) and 94. 6% (122/129), respectively, in overall patients (χ2=2. 399, P=0. 126), 93. 7% (59/63) and 98. 1% (53/54), respectively, in grade Ⅰ patients (χ2 =0. 548, P=0. 459), 90. 2% (46/51) and 94. 6% (35/37), respectively, in grade Ⅱ patients (χ2=0. 125, P=0. 724), and 79. 3% (23/29) and 89. 5% (34/38), respectively, in grade Ⅲ patients (χ2=0. 657, P=0. 418). The incidence of ERCP-related complications in the ERBD group and the ENBD group were 11. 9% ( 17/143) and 7. 8% ( 10/129) , respectively, in overall patients (χ2=1. 298, P=0. 225) , 9. 5% ( 6/63) and 7. 4%( 4/54) , respectively, in grade Ⅰ patients (χ2=0. 006, P=0. 939) , 13. 7% ( 7/51) and 8. 1% ( 3/37) , respectively, in grade Ⅱ patients (χ2=0. 230, P=0. 632), and 13. 8% (4/29) and 7. 9% (3/38), respectively, in grade Ⅲ patients (χ2=0. 144, P=0. 705) . There were no significant differences in the rate of improvement of inflammation and ERCP-related complications between the two groups. The incidences of interventions to drainage in the ERBD group and the ENBD group were 10. 5% ( 15/143 ) and 3. 1%(4/129), respectively, in overall patients (χ2=5. 699, P=0. 017), 6. 3% (4/63) and 1. 9% (1/54), respectively, in grade Ⅰ patients (χ2 = 0. 548, P = 0. 495 ) , 9. 8% ( 5/51 ) and 5. 4% ( 2/37 ) , respectively, in grade Ⅱ patients (χ2=0. 125, P=0. 724), and 20. 7% (6/29) and 2. 6% (1/38), respectively, in grade Ⅲ patients (χ2 = 3. 965, P= 0. 046 ) . There were significant differences in the incidence of interventions to drainage between the two groups in overall and gradeⅢpatents. Conclusion ERBD and ENBD are equally safe and effective in treatment of different grades of acute cholangitis, but ENBD can reduce the incidence of interventions to drainage.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effect of amitriptyline on the phosphorylation of histone deacetylase 5 (HDAC5) in the basolateral amygdala (BLA) of rats with neuropathic pain.Methods Thirty healthy male Wistar rats,weighing 250-300 g,were divided into 3 groups (n=10 each) using a random number table method:sham operation group (S group),neuropathic pain group (NP group) and amitriptyline group (A group).Spared nerve injury was produced by exposing the sciatic nerve and its branches and ligation and transection of tibial nerve and common fibular nerve in anesthetized rats.Amitriptyline 10 mg/kg was intraperitoneally injected every day on 14-35 days after establishing the model in group A,while the equal volume of normal saline was given instead of amitriptyline in S and NP groups.The mechanical paw withdrawal threshold (MWT) was measured on 3,7,14,21,28 and 35 days after establishing the model in each group.The forced swimming test was performed on day 36 after establishing the model,and immobility time,climbing time and swimming time were recorded.The rats were then sacrificed,and brain tissues in BLA were obtained for determination of the expression of HDAC5 and phosphorylated HDAC5 (p-HDAC5) (by Western blot) and expressionof HDAC5 mRNA (by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction).Results Compared with group S,the MWT was significantly decreased at each time point,the immobility time was prolonged,and the swimming time and climbing time were shortened in group NP,and the MWT was significantly decreased on days 14,21 and 28 after establishing the model,the expression of p-HDAC5 was down-regulated,and the expression of HDAC5 mRNA was up-regulated in group A (P<0.05).Compared with group NP,the MWT was significantly increased on days 21,28 and 35 after establishing the model,the immobility time was shortened,the climbing time was prolonged,the expression of p-HDAC5 was up-regulated,and the expression of HDAC5 mRNA was down-regulated in group A (P<0.05or 0.01).Conclusion The mechanism by which amitriptyline improves depression is associated with promoting the phosphorylation of HDAC5 in BLA of rats with NP.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the predictive value of early changes in platelet counts in the prognosis of severe pneumonia in aged patients.Methods This retrospective study included elderly patients with severe pneumonia,who were ≥65 years old and whose length of ICU stay ≥72 hours,admitted to the intensive care unit(ICU)of NO.2 People's Hospital of Changzhou from January 2014 to January 2017.They were divided into a survival group and a death group according to the 28-day outcome.General information and serum platelet levels at 0,24,36,and 72 hours after admission were collected.Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC)was plotted according to platelet counts,changes in platelet counts and rates of change in platelet counts to evaluate their predictive value for 28-day prognosis.Kaplan-Meier survival curve was used to analyze the 28-day cumulative survival rate between different groups of patients,who were further divided according to platelet counts at 0 and 72 hours after admission to ICU,changes in platelet counts and rates of change in platelet counts at 72 hours after admission.Results (1)One hundred elderly patients with severe pneumonia were enrolled,among whom 41 cases were in the death group,thus with a mortality of 41.0%.The acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ),sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA),C-reactive protein (CRP),and procalcitonin(PCT)in the death group were significantly higher than those in the survival group.2)Serum platelet levels showed a downward trend in both the death group and the survival group.The level of serum platelets at 72 hours after admission to ICU in the death group was significantly lower than that in the survival group(80.00 × 109/L vs.171.00 × 109/L,Z=5.786,P<0.05);changes in platelet counts and rates of change in platelet counts in the death group were significantly higher than those in the survival group,especially at 72 hours after admission to ICU(/△PLT72:-79.00 × 109/L vs.-38.00 × 109/L,Z =4.938,P <0.05;△PLT 72%:43.6% vs.-17.7%,Z=6.816,P<0.05).(3)ROC curve analysis showed that platelet levels,changes in platelet counts,and rates of change in platelet counts could predict 28-day mortality in aged patients with severe pneumonia.The largest area under ROC curve was 0.902 when plotted with the rate of platelet counts at 72 hours after admission to ICU.Using the cut-off value of-36.14% in the rate of change at 72 hours after admission to evaluate the predictive value in 28 day mortality,the sensitivity and specificity were 89.8% and 75.6%,respectively.(4)Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the 28 day survival rate was significantly higher and the length of survival was significantly greater when platelet counts at 0 and 72 hours after admission to ICU were higher than the cut-off value,and this also occurred in changes in platelet count and rates of change at 72 hours after admission to ICU.Conclusions Continuous decline in serum p[atelet levels indicates poor prognosis.When combined with platelet counts,changes in platelet counts and rates of change in platelet counts at 72 hours after admission to ICU,it may play an important role in assessing the prognosis of aged patients with severe pneumonia.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of double guidewire technique in perforation of duodenal papilla caused by guide wire during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography ( ERCP ) intubation. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on data of 57 patients whose duodenal papilla were perforated by guidewire in ERCP from January 2008 to September 2016. Among the 57 patients, 30 patients were cannulated with double guidewire technique ( double guidewire group ) and 27 patients were performed with traditional technique ( standard group ) for continue. The biliary intubation success rate, intubation time, and post-ERCP complication rate were compared between the two groups. Results The rate of successful intubation of the double guidewire group was significantly higher than that of the standard group[96. 7% (29/30) VS 74. 1% (20/27),χ2=5. 545, P=0. 019]. The intubation time of the double guidewire group was significantly shorter than that of the standard group (21. 8±7. 8 min VS 40. 7 ±8. 4 min, t=8. 076, P=0. 000). The double guidewire group had a similar incidence of post-ERCP complication compared to the standard group[ 13. 3% ( 4/30) VS 11. 1% ( 3/27) ,χ2=0. 292, P=0. 596] , and the complication in two groups was hyperamylasemia. Conclusion Double guidewire technique is safe and effective for difficult biliary cannulation because of perforation of duodenal papilla with a higher success rate and less time compared to classic technique.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the feasibility and safety of direct peroral cholangioscopy (DPCS) by freehand intubation using routine straight-view endoscope for diagnosis and therapy of biliary diseases.Methods Patients with unexplained choledochal stenosis and choledocholithiasis underwent standard ERCP.Native papilla was dilated using endoscopic papillary large balloon dilation (EPLBD)according to the size of papilla and the diameter of common bile duct.DPCS was performed using routine straight-view endoscope,and biopsy or laser lithotripsy was performed according to imaging of DPCS.General data of patients,procedure of ERCP,diagnosis of DPCS,and complications were recorded.Serum amylase after 2 hours and 24 hours,total bilirubin,direct bilirubin,leukocyte count,neutrophilic granulocyte percentage,and C-reactive protein were measured.Results A total of 15 patients underwent DPCS,including 5 cases of huge common bile duct stones and 10 cases of common bile duct stricture.The diameter of common bile duct ranged from 1.5 cm to 2.5 cm.Single EPLBD was required in 3 cases,endoscopic sphincteropapillotomy and EPLBD was required in 12 cases to facilitate DPCS.DPCS was successfully completed in 14 cases,including 11 cases in distal common bile duct,3 cases in proximal common bile duct.Among the 14 cases,4 cases used ordinary gastroscope,and 10 cases used ultrathin gastroscope.Laser lithotripsy was successfully completed in 4 choledocholithiasis patients.DPCS was successfully completed in 9 patients of common bile duct stenosis.The reasons of stenosis included 5 calculi,2 normal,1 scar and 2 adenoma.There were 1 case of cholangitis and 4 cases of hyperamylasemia after operation.No procedure related death occurred.Conclusion Freehand DPCS using ordinary gastroscope or ultrathin gastroscope is feasible and safe,and may be clinically useful for diagnosis and therapy of unexplained choledocholithiasis and common bile duct stenosis.

ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the predictive value of dynamic serum phosphorus levels in the evaluation of prognosis in patients with sepsis. Methods A retrospective study was conducted. The septic patients admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) of the Second People's Hospital of Changzhou from January 2016 to June 2017 were enrolled, who were ≥18 years old and whose length of ICU stay > 72 hours. These patients were divided into survival group and death group according to 28-day outcome. The general information, the acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHE Ⅱ) score within 24 hours of ICU admission, the serum phosphorus at 1, 3, 5, 7 days after admission were collected. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was plotted according to the dynamic serum phosphorus levels and APACHE Ⅱ score for evaluating the predictive value of 28-day prognosis. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was used to analyze the 28-day cumulative survival rate between two groups of patients, who were divided according to the corresponding time of the serum phosphorus cut-off value. Results ① Eighty-five patients with sepsis were enrolled, among whom 25 cases were in the death group and the mortality was 29.4%. APACHE Ⅱ score in the death group was significantly higher than that in the survival group (22.28±3.98 vs. 16.05±5.44, P < 0.01), the rate of using vasoactive drugs was significantly higher than that in the survival group [64.0% (16/25) vs. 31.7% (19/60), P < 0.01], but there was no significant difference in the length of invasive mechanical ventilation and ICU stay between two groups.② The level of serum phosphorus was increased in survival group along with time of the treatment, and the death group showed a downward trend. The levels of serum phosphorus at 3, 5, 7 days after admission to ICU in death group were significantly lower than those in survival group (mmol/L: 0.90±0.24 vs. 1.05±0.19 at 3 days, 0.96±0.16 vs. 1.11±0.17 at 5 days, 0.83±0.19 vs. 1.21±0.14 at 7 days, all P < 0.01).③ROC curve analysis showed that APACHE Ⅱ score and serum phosphorus level on the 7th day could significantly predict 28-day mortality in patients with sepsis, and the areas under ROC curve (AUC) of them were 0.813 and 0.945 respectively (both P < 0.01). The AUC of serum phosphorus level on the 3rd day and 5th day were 0.692 and 0.745 respectively (both P < 0.01). Based on serum phosphorus cut-off value 1.01 mmol/L on the 7th day to evaluate the predictive value of 28-day mortality, the sensitivity was 91.7%, the specificity was 84.0%, the positive and negative likelihood ratios were 5.73 and 0.10 respectively. ④ Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the 28-day survival rate was significantly higher and the length of survival was significantly longer if the serum phosphorus were higher than the cut-off value at different time points of ICU admission. The 28-day survival rate was significantly higher and the length of survival was significantly longer in the patients with serum phosphorus > 1.01 mmol/L than those serum phosphorus ≤ 1.01 mmol/L on the 7th day [28-day survival rate: 93.2% (55/59) vs. 22.7% (5/22), χ2= 49.697, P = 0.000; survival period (days): 27.1±3.6 vs. 19.8±7.8, t = 4.768, P =0.000]. Conclusion The continuous decline of serum phosphorus indicates poor prognosis, and the serum phosphorus level on the 7th day is one of the most important indicator to evaluate the prognosis of patients with sepsis.

ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the changes in the expression of GABAAα1, receptors in medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) in a rat model of neuropathic pain. Methods Nine male Wistar rats weighing 200-210 g were randomly divided into 3 groups ( n = 3 each): control group (group C) , sham operation group (group S) and neuropathic pain group (group P). Neuropathic pain was induced by chronic constrictive injury. The right sciatic nerve was exposed and 4 loose ligatures were placed on the sciatic nerve at 1 mm intervals with 3-0 chromic catgut. In group S, the right sciatic nerve was exposed but not ligated. The thermal and mechanical pain threshold was measured at 1 d before and 1,4,7, 10 and 14 d after operation. The animals were then sacrificed and the mPFC was removed. The expression of GABAAα1, receptors in mPFC was determined by Western blot. Results Compared with C and S groups, thermal and mechanical pain threshold were significantly decreased and the expression of GABAAα1, receptors was up-regulated in group P ( P < 0.01) . There was no significant difference was in the thermal and mechanical pain threshold and expression of GABAAα1 receptors between C and S groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion Up-regulation of GABAAα1 receptor expression in mPFC may be involved in the development and maintenance of neuropathic pain in rats.

Objective To investigate whether pulse pressure variation (△PP) reflect the effects of PEEP and fluid resuscitation (FR) on hemodynamic effects.Methods Twenty critical patients with acute lung injury was ventilated with volume control (VT =8 mL/kg,Ti/Te = 1: 2) ,and PaCO2 was kept at 35 to 45 mm Hg.PEEP was setted as 5 cm H2O and 15 cm H2O in randomized order.Hemodynamic parameters including cardiac index, pulse pressure, central venous pressure, etc.were monitered by PiCCO system.Measurements were performed after the application of 5 cm H2O PEEP (PEEPs group)and 15 cm H2O PEEP (PEEP15 group) respectively.When the PEEP-induced decrease in cardiac index (CI) was > 10%, measurements were also performed after fluid resuscitation.Results Compared with PEEPs group, CI was decreased significantly in PEEP15 group(P < 0.05), and APP was increased significantly (P < 0.05).In 14 patients whose PEEP-induced decrease in CI was > 10%, fluid resuscitation increased CI from (3.01±0.57)L · min-1· m-1to (3.62±0.68)L · min-1 · m-2(P<0.01),and decreased △PP from (17±3)% to (10±2) % (P < 0.01).PEEP15-induced decrease in CI was correlated negatively with APP on PEEP5 (r =-0.91,P < 0.01) and with the PEEP15-induced increase in △PP (r =-0.79, P < 0.01).FR-induced changes in CI correlated with APP before FR (r = 0.96, P < 0.01) and with the FR-induced decrease in APP (r =-0.95, P < 0.01).Conclusions In ventilated patients with ALI, △PP may be a simple and useful parameter in predicting and assessing the hemodynamic effects of PEEP and FR.
ABSTRACT
It has been known that the Alzheimer's disease(AD)is related closely with a synaptic failure,and the p21-activated kinase(PAK)is well documented to play an important role in the regulation of the synaptie functions.However,the relationship between thePAK and the pathology of AD is unclear.In the present study,we examined the expressions of the PAK3(one subtype ofPAK),phospho-rylated-PAK(pPAK) and β-amyloid42(Aβ42,β-amyloid with 42 peptides)in an APP/PS1 double transgenie mouse model of AD andthe morphologies of geurOtlS in the hippocampus at different ages.The Western Blot results showed that the expression of PAK remainedunchanged,while,the expression of pPAK decreased largely at the age of 32 weeks and further decreased significantly with aging in thehippocampus of the APP/PS1 transgenic mouse.A1342 levels in the hippocampus were detected to increase as early as the age of 22 weeks,and kept the increase to continue with aging.The morphological results showed no obvious neuron loss in the sections of Nissl staining,while serious distonion and disorder of the dendrites of the hippocampal neurons were observed on the sections of Gelgi staining in theAPP/PS1 transgenic mouse.The present results suggested that it seemed something wrong in the processes of phospholization of PAK,butnot in the expression of the PAK itself;the toxic Aβ42 might affect the PAK in its phospholization,which in turn directly influence thedendritic development in the hippocampal neurons and cause the dendrites distorting and disordering.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effect of truncal vagotomy on biliary dynamics in dogs.Methods After fasted for 18 h, 12 adult mongrel dogs underwent bilateral truncal vagotomy at the diaphragmatic level and pyloroplasty in the experiment group,and only pyloroplasty in the control group.All dogs were performed ultrasonograph to determine the size of the common bile duct(CBD) and sphincter of Oddi manometry(SOM) to detect biliary dynamics at postoperative 8 weeks,then the bile was collected from gallbladder for further analysis.Results In the experiment group,the CBD pressure,inner diameter of CBD,and SO basal pressure(SOBP) increased significantly,and sediments were found in the bile of all dogs,but SO amplitude(SOAP),frequency and duration of SO phasic contraction did not change.Conclusion Bilateral truncal vagotomy at the diaphragmatic level leads to significant increase of SOBP,resulting in a great change of biliary dynamics.
