ABSTRACT

Objective:To analyze the efficacy and safety of nalbuphine for analgesia in patients with non-mechanical ventilation in intensive care unit (ICU).Methods:From December 2018 to August 2021, a multicenter randomized controlled clinical study was conducted to select non-mechanical ventilation patients with analgesic needs admitted to ICU of four hospitals in Henan Province and Guizhou Province. Patients were randomly assigned to nalbuphine group and fentanyl group. The nalbuphine group was given continuous infusion of nalbuphine [0.05~0.20 mg/(kg·h)], and the fentanyl group was given continuous infusion of fentanyl [0.5~2.0 μg/(kg·h)]. The analgesic target was critical-care pain observation tool (CPOT) score<2. The observation time was 48 hours. The primary endpoint was CPOT score, the secondary endpoints were Richmond agitation-sedation score (RASS), ICU length of stay, adverse events, and proportion of mechanical ventilation. The quantitative data of the two groups were compared by t test or Mann-Whitney U test. The enumeration data were compared by chi square test or Fisher exact probability method. The data at different time points between groups were compared by repeated measures analysis of variance. Results:A total of 210 patients were enrolled, including 105 patients in the nalbuphine group and 105 patients in the fentanyl group. There was no significant difference in baseline data between the two groups (all P>0.05). There was no significant difference in CPOT score between nalbuphine group and fentanyl group at each time point after medication ( P>0.05), the CPOT score of both groups at each time point after medication was significantly lower than that before medication, and the analgesic target could be achieved and maintained 2 hours after medication. There was no significant difference in RASS between the two groups at each time point after medication ( P>0.05), which was significantly lower than that before medication, and the target sedative effect was achieved 2 hours after medication. There was no significant difference in ICU length of stay between nalbuphine group and fentanyl group [5.0(4.0,7.5) d vs. 5.0(4.0,8.0) d, P=0.504]. The incidence of delirium, nausea and vomiting, abdominal distension, pruritus, vertigo and other adverse events in the nalbuphine group was lower than that in the fentanyl group (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of other adverse events such as deep sedation, hypotension and bradycardia between the two groups (all P>0.05). The incidence of respiratory depression in nalbuphine group was not significantly different from that in fentanyl group ( P>0.05), but the proportion of mechanical ventilation was significantly lower than that in the fentanyl group [1.9% (2/105) vs. 8.6%(9/105), P=0.030]. Conclusions:Nalbuphine could be used for analgesia in ICU patients with non-mechanical ventilation. The target analgesic effect could be achieved within 2 hours, and it had a certain sedative effect with a low incidence of adverse reactions.

A self-filled questionnaire was adopted to collect data. The discrepancy of cognition and learning habits between different types of postgraduates was evaluated by univariate analysis. Discussion was conducted to clarify the potential risk factors of learning effect. t tests or Mann-Whitney U tests were conducted to test the differences between groups for continuous variables. Chi-squared tests or McNemar tests were applied to evaluate the difference between groups for categorical variables. Results:A total of 652 postgraduate students were enrolled for analysis, including 409 master students (62.7) and 243 doctoral students (37.3). The proportion of doctoral students who have heard of clinical epidemiology ( χ2=19.99, P<0.001), who have learned clinical epidemiology ( χ2=9.20, P=0.002), who are interested in ( χ2=11.41, P=0.001) and think the course is important ( χ2=10.71, P=0.001), who previewed before class( χ2=11.21, P=0.001), reviewed after class ( χ2=3.29, P=0.001) and actively discuss in class ( χ2=11.64, P=0.001) is significantly higher than that of master students, the difference was statistically significance. The average score of all the postgraduates was (5.50±1.62) points before teaching and (7.47±1.90) points after teaching, the difference was statistically significant ( t=-23.49, P<0.001). After teaching, the grades of full-time students improved more than that of part-time graduate students, there was statistical significance in the master group ( t=4.41, P<0.001), while not in the doctor group ( t=0.94, P=0.351). Conclusions:The mastery of key points on clinical epidemiology have significantly improved after teaching among the postgraduates of different types. Different teaching methods and processes should be adopted to the variety of postgraduates according to their knowledge foundations and shortcomings. Besides, standardizing their learning habits are of certain significance to improve the learning effect.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of sivelestat sodium in patients with sepsis.Methods:The clinical data of 141 adult patients with sepsis admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 1, 2019 to January 1, 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into the sivelestat sodium group ( n = 70) and the control group ( n = 71) according to whether they received sivelestat sodium or not. The efficacy indexes included oxygenation index, procalcitonin (PCT), C-reactive protein (CRP), white blood count (WBC), sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA), acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) before and after 7 days of treatment, as well as ventilator supporting time, the length of ICU stay, the length of hospital stay and ICU mortality. The safety indicators included platelet count (PLT) and liver and kidney function. Results:There were no significant differences in age, gender, underlying diseases, infection site, basic drugs, etiology, oxygenation index, biochemical indexes, SOFA and APACHE Ⅱ scores between the two groups. Compared with the control group, the oxygenation index in 7 days was significantly increased [mmHg (1 mmHg ≈ 0.133 kPa): 233.5 (181.0, 278.0) vs. 202.0 (153.0, 243.0), P < 0.01], the levels of PCT, CRP, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and APACHE Ⅱ score were significantly decreased in the sivelestat sodium group [PCT (μg/L): 0.87 (0.41, 1.61) vs. 1.53 (0.56, 5.33), CRP (mg/L): 64.12 (19.61, 150.86) vs. 107.20 (50.30, 173.00), ALT (U/L): 25.0 (15.0, 43.0) vs. 31.0 (20.0, 65.0), APACHE Ⅱ: 14 (11, 18) vs. 16 (13, 21), all P < 0.05]. However, there were no significant differences in SOFA, WBC, serum creatinine (SCr), PLT, total bilirubin (TBil), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in 7 days between the sivelestat sodium group and the control group [SOFA: 6.5 (5.0, 10.0) vs. 7.0 (5.0, 10.0), WBC (×10 9/L): 10.5 (8.2, 14.7) vs. 10.5 (7.2, 15.2), SCr (μmol/L): 76.0 (50.0, 124.1) vs. 84.0 (59.0, 129.0), PLT (×10 9/L): 127.5 (59.8, 212.3) vs. 121.0 (55.0, 211.0), TBil (μmol/L): 16.8 (10.0, 32.1) vs. 16.6 (8.4, 26.9), AST (U/L): 31.5 (22.0, 62.3) vs. 37.0 (24.0, 63.0), all P > 0.05]. The ventilator supporting time and the length of ICU stay in the sivelestat sodium group were significantly shorter than those in control group [ventilator supporting time (hours): 147.50 (86.83, 220.00) vs. 182.00 (100.00, 360.00), the length of ICU stay (days): 12.5 (9.0, 18.3) vs. 16.0 (11.0, 23.0), both P < 0.05]. However, there were no significant differences in the length of hospital stay and ICU mortality between the sivelestat sodium group and the control group [the length of hospital stay (days): 20.0 (11.0, 27.3) vs. 13.0 (11.0, 21.0), ICU mortality: 17.1% (12/70) vs. 14.1% (10/71), both P > 0.05]. Conclusions:Sivelestat sodium is safe and effective in patients with sepsis. It can improve the oxygenation index and APACHE Ⅱ score, reduce the levels of PCT and CRP, shorten ventilator supporting time and the length of ICU stay. No adverse reactions such as liver and kidney function injury and platelet abnormality are observed.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To figure out the timing of zeroing and the location of the zero line in the central venous pressure (CVP) monitoring and invasive arterial blood pressure (IBP) monitoring, and to provide scientific and accurate data for patients management.Methods:The liquid vessel models were used to simulate the pressure measurement process of the continuous pressure monitoring system. Based on the theory of fluid mechanics and the knowledge of blood pressure physiology and cardiovascular anatomy, the composition and influencing factors of the pressure in the fluid-filled catheter system during the zeroing and placing the transducer in the zero line of CVP and IBP, were analyzed.Results:The pressure in the liquid-filled catheter system was composed of atmospheric pressure, the pressure of pumping bag, the gravity of the water column (the vertical distance between the liquid level of Murphy's dropper and pressure transducer, ΔH), and the resistance of tube wall. This pressure value is set as a pressure of 0 mmHg (1 mmHg ≈ 0.133 kPa). In the process of pressure measurement, when the pressure transducer was placed at a horizontal position of 10 cm below the highest liquid level of the vessel, the pressure measured at different catheter tip positions was all 10 cmH 2O (1 cmH 2O ≈ 0.098 kPa); When the pressure transducer was placed at the horizontal position of the highest liquid level of the vessel, the measured pressure is 0 mmHg. Conclusion:Zeroing should repeatedly be performed only when one or more conditions (atmospheric pressure, pressure of pumping bag, gravity of ΔH water column and resistance of tube wall) are changed. In the measurement process, the pressure transducer should be placed at the zero line position at any time to eliminate the influence of hydrostatic pressure and to ensure the objective and accurate value.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the effect of Xuebijing injection on inflammation in sepsis by regulating intestinal microbiota and its metabolites.@*METHODS@#A total of 45 male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into Sham operation group (Sham group), cecal ligation and perforation (CLP) induced sepsis group (CLP group), and Xuebijing intervention group (XBJ group, 4 mL/kg Xuebijing injection was injected intraperitoneally at 1 hour after CLP), with 15 rats in each group. The survival of rats was observed at 24 hours after operation and sacrificed. Feces were collected for 16S rRNA gene sequencing and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) analysis.@*RESULTS@#At 24 hours after operation, all rats in the Sham group survived, the mortality of rats in the XBJ group was lower than that in the CLP group [47% (7/15) vs. 60% (9/15), P > 0.05]. Compared with the Sham group, the diversity of gut microbiota in the CLP group decreased, the dominant flora changed, and the abundance of inflammation-related flora increased. Xuebijing improved the changes in gut microbiota caused by sepsis, and α diversity showed an increasing trend (Ace index: 406.0±22.5 vs. 363.2±38.2, Chao1 index: 409.7±21.8 vs. 362.4±42.5, both P > 0.05). Restrictive constrained principal coordinate analysis (cPCoA) showed a high similarity in gut microbiota among the same group of rats. The CLP group was dominated by Bacteroidetes, while the Sham and XBJ groups were dominated by Firmicutes. In addition, compared with the CLP group, Xuebijing treatment increased the abundance of beneficial bacteria in septic rats, such as Verrucomicrobia, Akkermansia and Lactobacillus. LC-MS and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) showed that there were 12 main differential metabolites among the three groups, and there were certain correlations between these metabolites, which were related to amino acid and lipid metabolism. Correlation analysis showed a significant correlation between changes in metabolites and microbial communities.@*CONCLUSIONS@#Xuebijing can improve the survival rate of septic rats, regulate the composition of intestinal flora and related metabolites, which provides a new pathophysiological mechanism for Xuebijing in the treatment of sepsis.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the relationship between the changes in the lipid profiles and the intensity of inflammatory response and disease severity in patients with sepsis, in order to find a biomarker that can quickly evaluate the condition and prognosis of sepsis.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 449 patients with sepsis admitted to department of critical care medicine of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from October 2019 to May 2021, and 355 patients without sepsis hospitalized in the same period served as the control. The general demographic data, blood lipid and other clinical indicators within 24 hours after admission were collected and compared between the two groups. Bivariate correlation study was used to analyze the relationship between blood lipid levels and inflammation indicators and severity of illness in patients with sepsis. The receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) was drawn to evaluate the predictive value of each blood lipid component on the 28-day mortality of patients with sepsis. According to the results of ROC curve analysis, the blood lipids were divided into two groups with different levels, and the Kaplan-Meier survival curve was used to compare the cumulative survival rates of the two groups without end-point event (the 28-day mortality was the end-point event).Results:Compared with non-septic patients, the levels of plasma total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) were significantly lower in patients with sepsis [TC (mmol/L): 2.93±1.33 vs. 4.01±1.14, HDL-C (mmol/L): 0.78±0.47 vs. 1.16±0.40, LDL-C (mmol/L): 1.53±1.00 vs. 2.71±0.98, all P < 0.05]. In patients with sepsis, plasma cholesterol levels were correlated with the degree of inflammation and severity of the disease to varying degrees, but the HDL-C had the strongest correlation with interleukin-6 (IL-6; r = -0.551, P = 0.000), procalcitonin (PCT, r = -0.598, P = 0.000), sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA; r = -0.285, P = 0.000). The ROC curve analysis showed that among all blood lipid components, HDL-C had the highest predictive value for 28-day mortality of sepsis patients, and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.718, when the best cut-off value was 0.69 mmol/L, the sensitivity and specificity were 67.3% and 65.2% respectively, and the positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 60.6% and 71.5% respectively. According to Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis, the mortality of sepsis patients with HDL-C ≤ 0.69 mmol/L was significantly higher than the patients with HDL-C > 0.69 mmol/L, and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.000 1). In addition, the 28-day mortality [59.73% (135/226) vs. 28.70% (64/223)], the incidence of multiple organ dysfunction [41.15% (93/226) vs. 31.84% (71/223)], the probability of requiring mechanical ventilation and vasoactive drugs [mechanical ventilation: 56.64% (128/226) vs. 46.18% (103/223); vasoactive drugs: 54.42% (123/226) vs. 38.57% (86/223)], the positive rate of microbial culture [45.58% (103/226) vs. 35.43% (79/223)], and the probability of drug-resistant bacteria [19.91% (45/226) vs. 10.31% (23/223)] in the low HDL-C group of sepsis patients were all higher than the high HDL-C group, the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). Conclusions:Plasma cholesterol levels, especially the HDL-C levels, can well reflect the intensity of inflammation and the severity of the disease in patients with sepsis. And the HDL-C levels can be used as a good biomarker for predicting the short-term prognosis of sepsis.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the relationship between rumination and depression and suicide attempts, and the mediating effect of rumination between depression and suicide attempts in adolescents with depressive disorder.Methods:Clinical interviews and questionnaires were conducted on 331 adolescents aged 11-18 with depressive disorders.Depressive symptoms were assessed with patient health questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9). Rumination was assessed with ruminative responses scale-10 (RRS-10), and Chinese version of the sociality module of MINI5.0 was used to assess suicide.SPSS 23.0 software was applied to descriptive statistics, Chi-square test, t-test, Spearman correlation analysis and hierarchical regression analysis, and the SPSS macro program PROCESS V 3.4 was used for Bootstrap mediating effect. Results:The incidence of suicide attempts in adolescents with depressive disorder was 53.78%, which was significantly higher in girls (59.48%) than that in boys (40.40%), and the difference was significant ( χ2=10.16, P<0.01). In contrast to the non-suicide attempt group, suicide attempt group had higher scores on PHQ-9((11.08±9.26) vs (14.43±7.49), t=-3.634, P<0.01), brooding ((10.76±3.89) vs (12.44±3.87), t=-3.926, P<0.01), reflection ((10.05±3.54) vs (11.20±3.33), t=-3.044, P<0.01) and rumination total score ((20.81±6.78) vs (23.64±6.42), t=-3.898, P<0.01). Regression analysis revealed that girl ( β=0.175, t=3.228, P=0.001), depressive symptoms ( β=0.168, t=3.082, P=0.002), rumination ( β=0.138, t=2.364, P=0.019) were risk factors for suicide attempts.Rumination played a complete mediating effect between depressive symptoms and suicide attempts (effect value=0.013, 95% CI=0.003-0.027). Depression symptoms significantly and positively predicted rumination ( P<0.01), and rumination significantly and positively predicted suicide attempts ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The incidence of suicide attempts was high in adolescents with depressive disorders.Depressive symptoms affect suicide attempts mainly through rumination.Clinicians should assess the rumination of adolescents with depressive disorders.In addition, clinicians should implement concurrent psychotherapy to adjust the cognitive response and reduce rumination, in order to improve the mental health and reduce suicide attempts.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To analyze the incidence of malignant tumors and its risk factors in patients on maintenance hemodialysis.Methods:Clinical data of 627 hemodialysis patients in Huadu District People′s Hospital of Guangzhou who met the inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria from January 2015 to December 2020 were retrospectively collected. Clinical characteristic of patients with malignant tumors was summarized. Multivariate logistics regression analysis was performed to explore the related factors of malignant tumors.Results:Among the 627 patients, 19(3.03%) developed malignant tumors. There were 14 males and 5 females with a mean age of (65.7±13.7)years. Their mean dialysis duration was (45.16±38.18)months. Gastrointestinal tumor was the most common tumor type (9/19). Univariate analysis showed that the age of the patients combined with malignant tumors was significantly higher, and the serum prealbumin was significantly lower than those patients without malignant tumors (all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that age was the independent risk factor of developing cancers after adjusting dialysis age, hemoglobin, albumin and parathyroid hormone ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The incidence of malignant tumor is significantly higher in maintenance hemodialysis patients than that in the general population. Age is the risk independent risk factor. Therefore, we should strengthen the monitoring of elderly hemodialysis patients, discover the disease in time, and take measures to improve the prognosis.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND@#Hypertension is associated with stroke-related mortality. However, the long-term association of blood pressure (BP) and the risk of stroke-related mortality and the influence path of BP on stroke-related death remain unknown. The current study aimed to estimate the long-term causal associations between BP and stroke-related mortality and the potential mediating and moderated mediating model of the associations.@*METHODS@#This is a 45-year follow-up cohort study and a total of 1696 subjects were enrolled in 1976 and 1081 participants died by the latest follow-up in 2020. COX proportional hazard model was used to explore the associations of stroke-related death with baseline systolic blood pressure (SBP)/diastolic blood pressure (DBP) categories and BP changes from 1976 to 1994. The mediating and moderated mediating effects were performed to detect the possible influencing path from BP to stroke-related deaths. E value was calculated in the sensitivity analysis.@*RESULTS@#Among 1696 participants, the average age was 44.38 ± 6.10 years, and 1124 were men (66.3%). After a 45-year follow-up, a total of 201 (11.9%) stroke-related deaths occurred. After the adjustment, the COX proportional hazard model showed that among the participants with SBP ≥ 160 mmHg or DBP ≥ 100 mmHg in 1976, the risk of stroke-related death increased by 217.5% (hazard ratio [HR] = 3.175, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.297-4.388), and the adjusted HRs were higher in male participants. Among the participants with hypertension in 1976 and 1994, the risk of stroke-related death increased by 110.4% (HR = 2.104, 95% CI: 1.632-2.713), and the adjusted HRs of the BP changes were higher in male participants. Body mass index (BMI) significantly mediated the association of SBP and stroke-related deaths and this mediating effect was moderated by gender.@*CONCLUSIONS@#In a 45-year follow-up, high BP and persistent hypertension are associated with stroke-related death, and these associations were even more pronounced in male participants. The paths of association are mediated by BMI and moderated by gender.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To assess the influence of age on the safety of propofol mono-sedation for adult patients undergoing painless gastroscopy.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on data of 321 patients scheduled for painless gastroscopy with propofol mono-sedation. According to the age, patients were divided into youth group (116 cases, 18-44 years), middle-aged group (103 cases, 45-59 years) and elderly group (102 cases, 60-80 years). The procedure time, the total dosage of propofol, the occurrence of airway obstruction or hypoxemia, the use of airway interventions including airway opening maneuvers and facemask ventilation, lowest SpO 2, adverse cardiovascular events (including hypertension, hypotension, tachycardia, and bradycardia), and the use of ephedrine during painless gastroscopy were observed. Results:There was significant difference regarding the total dosage of propofol among youth group (173.2±47.0 mg), middle-aged group (158.8±41.3 mg) and elderly group (137.8±26.3 mg) ( F=21.761, P<0.001). The total dosage of propofol was significantly lower in the elderly group compared with the middle-aged group ( P<0.017) and youth group ( P<0.017), and that in the middle-aged group was significantly lower than that in the youth group ( P<0.017). The incidence of hypoxemia was 12.9% (15/116) in the youth group, 15.5% (16/103) in the middle-aged group and 25.5% (26/102) in the elderly group, with significant difference among three groups ( χ2=5.711, P=0.017). Moreover, the incidence of hypoxemia was significantly higher in the elderly group compared with the middle-aged group ( P<0.017) and youth group ( P<0.017). The incidences of hypotension, bradycardia and total adverse cardiovascular events were 5.2% (6/116), 4.9% (5/103) and 11.8% (12/102), 1.7% (2/116), 2.9% (3/103) and 7.8% (8/102), and 11.2% (13/116), 10.7% (11/103) and 20.6% (21/102) respectively in youth, the middle-aged and the elderly group. There were no significant differences in the above indicators among the three groups ( P>0.05). However, compared with those of the young and the middle-aged patients, the occurrence of hypotension, bradycardia and total adverse cardiovascular events in the elderly patients were on the rise. There were no significant differences among the three groups in other indices( P>0.05). Conclusion:Total dosage of propofol may need to be decreased gradually with the increase of age of patients undergoing gastroscopy with propofol mono-sedation. Compared with young and middle-aged patients, elderly patients have a significantly higher incidence of hypoxemia, with a tendancy of total adverse cardiovascular events increase, so the safety of painless gastroscopy is reduced for these patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the mediating effect of resilience between perceived stress and insomnia in medical staff.Methods:A questionnaire survey was conducted among 1 163 medical staff. All subjects were assessed with the insomnia severity index (ISI), simplified Chinese version of Connor-Davidson resilience scale (CD-RISC-10) and perceived stress scale (PSS-10). SPSS 20.0 software was used for common method biases test, descriptive statistics, difference analysis, correlation analysis, hierarchical regression analysis, and SPSS PROCESS V3.4 was used for Bootstrap mediating effect.Results:①The perceived stress (16.28±6.35) was positively correlated with insomnia (6.14±5.80)( r=0.404, P<0.01), and psychological resilience was negatively correlated with insomnia and perceived stress in medical staff ( r=-0.279, P<0.01, r=-0.399, P<0.01). ②Psychological resilience played a partial mediating role between perceived stress and insomnia in medical staff, with the mediating effect as 0.051, accounting of 13.82% of the total effect. Conclusion:Psychological resilience can reduce the negative effects of perceived stress on sleep and is a protective factor for insomnia in medical staff. Clinically, reducing perceived stress and improving psychological resilience can reduce insomnia in medical staff.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the feasibility and clinical efficacy of deformed complex vertebral osteotomy (DCVO) technique on the treatment of angular kyphosis of cured spinal tuberculosis.Methods:A retrospective study was performed on patients with angular kyphosis of cured spinal tuberculosis who underwent the DCVO technique or posterior vertebral column resection (PVCR) technique from Jan, 2007 to Jan, 2019. 33 patients were included, 18 males and 15 females, the average age was 39.5±15.0 years old (ranged 9-78 years old). The vertebral deformity in thoracic vertebrae 14 cases, thoracolumbar vertebrae 16 cases, and lumbar vertebrae 3 cases. 20 cases underwent the DCVO technique, while 13 cases underwent PVCR technique. For DCVO group, the multiple malformed vertebrae were considered a malformed complex, and a larger range and angle wedge osteotomy was performed within the complex using the DCVO technique. PVCR technique would resect the whole deformed vertebrae, and subsequently brought the two separated spinal columns together with instruments and titanium mesh. The intro-operative blood loss, operating time and complications were recorded. The radiological measurements included preoperative and postoperative spinopelvic parameters, which including thoracic kyphosis (TK), lumbar lordosis (LL), sagittal vertical axis (SVA), pelvic incidence (PI), pelvic tilt (PT), sacral slope (SS) and segmental kyphosis. The recovery of neurological function was evaluated by Frankle classification.Results:All patients were followed up for 7-72 months. Comparing with the cases underwent PVCR technique, the DCVO group has a significantly lower blood loss (1315.00±462.57 ml), operating time (293.00±83.86 min) and complications rate (1.5%). At the time of preoperation, postoperation and last follow-up, the deformity angle of DCVO group was 96.80°±6.32°, 29.10°±6.96°and 29.05°±6.49°, which gained an average 69.9% correction rate. The statistical analysis suggested that deformity angle was enormously corrected. And there was an insignificant difference between DCVO group and PVCR group. Meanwhile, the preoperative, postoperative and follow-up TK of DCVO group was 96.96°±29.13°, 37.15°±4.88° and 37.00°±3.89°respectively, whosecorrection rate was 67.1%; LL was 66.70°±21.21°, 42.25°±5.53° and 41.90°±4.98°, which have a significant difference between pre-operation and post-operation/follow-up ( F=23.997, P<0.001) ; SVA was 75.95±18.63 mm, 16.30±6.88 mm and 16.55±7.30 mm. PI was 47.50°±6.12°, 47.35°±5.54°and 47.90°±5.93°, PT was 37.25°±9.63°, 18.50°±1.99° and 19.00°±1.65°; SS was 10.25°±8.27°, 29.15°±5.91° and 28.85°±5.77°. The sagittal and spinopelvic parameters of two groups improved significantly at postoperation and follow-up. No obviously difference of spinal parameters was found between two groups at preoperation and postoperation. Both groups have cases with dysneuria. And all of these cases achieved different degrees of recovery at follow-up. Conclusion:The use of DCVO technique for the treatment of post-tubercular angular kyphosis is safe and efficiency. DCVO leads a better clinical outcomes and lower complication rate than VCR technique.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the relationship between serum cholinesterase (SChE) level and the prognosis of patients with septic shock (SS).Methods:A total of 594 patients with SS admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from June 2013 to June 2017 were enrolled. General data such as gender, age, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHEⅡ) score were recorded as well as routine blood test, procalcitonin (PCT), hepatic function, renal function, coagulation function and blood gas analysis parameters within 48 hours of SS diagnosis. The patients were followed by telephone from September to October in 2019, and the outcome was recorded. The primary outcome was all-cause death 28 days after discharge. The secondary outcomes were all-cause death in intensive care unit (ICU) and 2 years after discharge, and the length of ICU stay. The patients were divided into two groups according to prognosis of 28 days: the survival group and the death group. The clinical data of the two groups were compared. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to screen prognostic risk factors of 28 days in patients with SS. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to explore predictive value of liver function parameter SChE for 28-day prognosis of patients with SS. The patients were divided into two groups according to the levels of SChE: the low SChE group (SChE ≤ 4 000 U/L) and the normal SChE group (SChE > 4 000 U/L). Kaplan-Meier survival curves were used to compare the cumulative survival rates without endpoint event of patients with different SChE levels.Results:A total of 385 patients with SS were enrolled according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and a total of 356 patients were followed up successfully, with a follow-up rate of 92.5% (356/385). There were 142 survival patients and 214 death patients at 28 days, with a 28-day mortality rate of 60.1% (214/356). There were 116 survival patients and 240 death patients at 2 years, with a 2-year mortality rate of 67.4% (240/356). Compared with the 28-day survival group, the patients in the death group were older and had higher APACHEⅡ score, partial hepatic and renal function parameters, higher level of blood lactate (Lac) and lower levels of white blood cell count (WBC), platelet count (PLT) and SChE with statistically significant differences. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that the age [relative risk ( RR) = 1.444, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 1.090-1.914, P = 0.010], APACHEⅡ score ( RR = 2.249, 95% CI was 1.688-2.997, P = 0.000), SChE ( RR = 1.469, 95% CI was 1.057-2.043, P = 0.022), and Lac ( RR = 2.190, 95% CI was 1.636-2.931, P = 0.000) were independent risk factors for 28-day mortality of patients with SS. The ROC curve analysis showed that SChE had a weak prognostic value for 28-day prognosis of patients with SS [the area under ROC curve (AUC) was 0.574]. However, the combined predictive value of SChE, APACHEⅡ score and Lac was greater than APACHEⅡ score or Lac alone for prediction (AUC: 0.807 vs. 0.785, 0.697), with a sensitivity of 79.9% and a specificity of 68.5%. Compared with the normal SChE group ( n = 88), the 28-day mortality of patients in the low SChE group ( n = 268) was significantly increased [63.1% (169/268) vs. 51.1% (45/88), P < 0.05], but ICU mortality [59.7% (160/268) vs. 48.9% (43/88)], 2-year mortality [69.8% (187/268) vs. 60.2% (53/88)] or the length of ICU stay [days: 4 (2, 7) vs. 5 (2, 9)] between the two groups showed no statistical significance (all P > 0.05). Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis showed that the cumulative survival rate without endpoint event of patients in the low SChE group was significantly lower than that in the normal SChE group (Log-Rank test: χ 2 = 5.852, P = 0.016). Conclusions:Increased risk of 28-day mortality in patients with SS whose SChE is below normal. The level of SChE is an independent risk factor for 28-day death in SS patients, and it is one of the indicators to evaluate the short-term prognosis of patients with SS.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the clinical treatment and assess the knowledge and use of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) treatment plan issued by the nation.Methods:A nationwide questionnaire survey on line was administered to medical staffs involved in COVID-19 treatment on February 28th, 2020. The questionnaire included drug treatment, respiratory support therapy, sedation and analgesia, continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), etc.Results:There were 1 103 respondents, of whom 699 (504 doctors and 195 nurses) participated in the treatment of COVID-19. Finally, 432 doctors and 170 nurses from 9 provinces submitted valid questionnaires. The results of the questionnaire surveys of doctors and nurses were basically the same. Considering that doctors dominated in the diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19, the results of the questionnaires of doctors were mainly analyzed. The doctors participating in the survey were mainly from Hubei (29.2%), followed by Henan (24.5%), Guizhou (22.7%), and Guangxi (14.6%), etc. 55.4% of the doctors came from tertiary three hospitals, and most of them have senior titles (56.4%). 232 doctors (53.7%) participated in the treatment of mild COVID-19, and 200 doctors (46.3%) participated in the treatment of severe and critically ill patients. More than 95% of the doctors expressed that they would carry out antiviral treatment for patients with COVID-19 regardless of disease severity. The main antiviral drugs included α-interferon (69.5%), lopinavir/ritonavir (65.0%), abidol (60.0%), and ribavirin (55.7%). The choice of antiviral drugs was highly consistent with the national treatment programs of COVID-19. At the same time, 95.5% of doctors would routinely prescribe antibiotics to severe and critically ill patients. 94.0% of doctors agreed to prescribe low-dose glucocorticoid therapy to severe and critically ill patients. About 2/3 of doctors would perform lung recruitment or prone position treatment for critical patients with invasive ventilation. 79.0% of doctors preferred to use deep sedation for patients with invasive ventilation. About 1/3 of doctors believed that CRRT should be initiated early, and nearly 1/3 of doctors suggested that ECMO should be used more aggressively in critically ill patients.Conclusions:Medical staffs are familiar with the national treatment plan of COVID-19 and willing to follow it. However, as a new disease, we have limited knowledge about COVID-19 and there are still many controversies. Further practical training is needed to make clinicians more aware of the disease, and more evidence-based evidence is needed to guide clinical treatment.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Fixed-bearing unicompartmental knee arthroplasty has become an effective method for the treatment of medial single-compartment osteoarthritis of the knee joint. In recent years, with the continuous development of the design of unicompartmental prosthesis and surgical techniques, age, body mass idex and patellofemoral joint lesions are no longer the absolute contraindication for fixed-bearing unicompartmental knee arthroplasty. However, it is still controversial whether anterior cruciate ligament defects affect the survival rate of fixed-bearing unicompartmental knee arthroplasty. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical effect and revision rate of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty in the patients with medial univentricular osteoarthritis and anterior cruciate ligament deficiency. METHODS: A total of 268 patients with single-compartment osteoarthritis of the medial knee joint admitted to Foshan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from March 2014 to March 2016 were selected, including 111 males and 157 females, who were all treated with fixed-bearing unicompartmental knee arthroplasty. According to preoperative MRI and intraoperative exploration, the patients were divided into anterior cruciate ligament defect group (n=45) and anterior cruciate ligament intact group (n=223). After 4-6 years of follow-up, the survival rate of the prosthesis was counted. The knee function was evaluated by hospital for special surgery knee score and Tegner scores. Hip knee ankle angle and posterior slope angle were analyzed to evaluate the lower limb alignmentthe. Six degrees of freedom kinematic parameters of the knee joint were obtained by the three-dimensional dynamic evaluation system guided by infrared light to evaluate objectively knee joint function after operation. The study was approved by Ethics Committee of Foshan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine (approval No. 20140317). RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Complications such as postoperative persistent pain and progressive arthritis of lateral compartment occurred in both groups. The rate of revision was 4.40% in anterior cruciate ligament defect group and 4.03% in anterior cruciate ligament intact group. There was no significant difference between the two groups (P > 0.05). (2) At the last follow-up, there was no significant difference in hospital for special surgery knee score, Tegner score, hip knee ankle angle and posterior slope angle between the two groups (P > 0.05). (3) At the last follow-up, the data of six degrees of freedom were similar between the two groups, including knee varus angle, flexion and extension angle, internal and external rotation angle, up and down displacement, internal and external displacement, anteroposterior displacement movement (P > 0.05). (4) The results showed that during the follow-up period, unicompartmental knee arthroplasty has the same surgical effect and prosthesis survival rate in anterior cruciate ligament defect patients with stable knee joint as that of patients with intact anterior cruciate ligament.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) and their special calcium-activated chloride channel, anoctamin-1 (ANO1) play pivotal roles in regulating colonic transit. This study is designed to investigate the role of ICC and the ANO1 channel in colonic transit disorder in dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-treated colitis mice. METHODS: Colonic transit experiment, colonic migrating motor complexes (CMMCs), smooth muscle spontaneous contractile experiments, intracellular electrical recordings, western blotting analysis, and quantitative polymerase chain reaction were applied in this study. RESULTS: The mRNA and protein expressions of c-KIT and ANO1 channels were significantly decreased in the colons of DSS-colitis mice. The colonic artificial fecal-pellet transit experiment in vitro was significantly delayed in DSS-colitis mice. The CMMCs and smooth muscle spontaneous contractions were significantly decreased by 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)benzoic acid (NPPB), an ANO1 channel blocker, and NG-Nitro-L-arginine methyl ester hydrochloride (L-NAME), an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase activity, in DSS-colitis mice compared with that of control mice. Intracellular electrical recordings showed that the amplitude of NPPB-induced hyperpolarization was more positive in DSS-colitis mice. The electric field stimulation-elicited nitric-dependent slow inhibitory junctional potentials were also more positive in DSS-colitis mice than those of control mice. CONCLUSION: The results suggest that colonic transit disorder is mediated via downregulation of the nitric oxide/ICC/ANO1 signalling pathway in DSS-colitis mice.

ABSTRACT

Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a common cause of hip pain and limited range of motion among young and middle-aged active adults and athletes. The acetabular labral tear and cartilage damage secondary to FAI may increase the risk of hip osteoarthritis. FAI is characterized by pathologic impact between the femoral headneck junction and the acetabular rim secondary to bony deformity. According to the pathological anatomy leading to impingement, the FAI can be divided into the femoral cam-type deformity (Cam), the acetabular over-coverage deformity (Pincer) and a combination of both. In recent years, arthroscopic osteoplasty of the femoral head-neck junction is the main way to treat the Cam deformity; However, there still remain some controversies about how to perform an adequate and effective arthroscopic femoroplasty. Based on this problem, the present article reviewed the preoperative diagnosis, intraoperative evaluation, surgical techniques and postoperative evaluation of Cam-type FAI to explore how to adequately correct Cam deformity under arthroscopy. In the present study, a total of 1928 related articles were obtained by searching PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane library, China Knowledge Network, Wanfang Full-text Database and Weipu Science and Technology Journal Database. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 43 papers were finally included. After summarizing the above literatures, it was found that anatomical structures such as Cam deformity, femoral neck anteversion, and acetabular coverage can be evaluated preoperatively by X-ray, three-dimensional CT and MRI. X-ray fluoroscopy and arthroscopic dynamic examination are performed during the femoroplasty to locate the Cam deformity and to determine whether the femoral neck offset radio and the spherical structure of femoral head are corrected, at the same time, it is necessary to consider the overall anatomy of the hip joint to achieve an adequate resection of the Cam deformity and restore the normal mobility of the hip joint.

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the efficacy and safety of nalbuphine in patients with sedative analgesia in intensive care unit (ICU). Methods A prospective observation was conducted. The adult patients with mild and moderate analgesia in general ICU of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January to November in 2017 were enrolled, and they were divided into nalbuphine group and sufentanil group in proper order. The nabobrown group was given 40 mg nabobrown, the sufentanil group was given 0.1 mg sufentanil, both of which were injected with 50 mL normal saline for continuous intravenous infusion in micro-pump. Infusion speed was checked according to pain level. The analgesic target was critical-care pain observation tool (CPOT) score < 2. The change in hemodynamics of patients in both groups were observed, and CPOT score and Richmond agitation-sedation scale (RASS) score were recorded before and l, 3, 5, 12, 24 hours after administration. The analgesic and sedative effects of two drugs were evaluated. Results A total of 141 patients were enrolled, including 71 patients in nalbuphine group and 70 in sufentanil group. There was no significant difference in general data including gender, age, body weight, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHEⅡ) or pain source, as well as baseline hemodynamics parameter between the two groups. At 1 hour and 3 hours after administration, nalbuphine had no effect on blood pressure, but the heart rate was decreased slightly, while the heart rate and blood pressure of the sufentanil group were decreased obviously. The two drugs could make the heart rate and blood pressure fluctuate obviously with the time of medication, but there was no statistical difference between the two drugs. The two drugs had no significant effect on pulse oxygen saturation (SpO2) during analgesia. The average dosage of nalbuphine was 0.03 (0.02, 0.05) mg·kg-1·h-1in the nalbuphine group, and the patient was satisfied with the analgesic effect until 3 hours after the use of the drug, and CPOT score was significantly decreased as compared with that before administration [1.0 (1.0, 2.0) vs. 3.0 (2.0, 4.0), P < 0.01], and the sedative effect was increased, RASS score was significantly lower than that before administration [0 (0, 1.0) vs. 1.0 (1.0, 2.0), P < 0.01]. No patients in naporphine group were treated with sufentanil due to unsatisfactory analgesia. The average dosage was 0.11 (0.06, 0.14) μg·kg-1·h-1in the sufentanil group, the patient was satisfied with the analgesic effect until 5 hours after administration, and the CPOT score was significantly lower than that before administration [1.0 (1.0, 2.0) vs. 4.0 (3.0, 6.0), P < 0.01], and the sedative effect was significantly increased, RASS score was significantly lower than that before administration [0 (-1.0, 0) vs. 2.0 (1.0, 2.0), P < 0.01]. The scores of CPOT and RASS in the sufentanil group were significantly higher than those of the naporphine group before use, so the decrease in the CPOT and RASS scores of the two drugs was further analyzed, which indicated the decrease in CPOT score of naporphine group was significantly lower than that in sufentanil group from 3 hours on [1.0 (0, 2.0) vs. 2.0 (1.0, 3.0), P < 0.05], and the decrease in RASS score of naporphine group was significantly lower than that in sufentanil group from 1 hour on [0 (0, 1.0) vs. 1.0 (0, 2.0), P < 0.01]. It suggested that naporphine could achieve sustained and stable analgesic effect and avoid excessive sedation caused by sufentanil. Conclusions Naporphine had a sustained and stable analgesic effect on patients with mild and moderate ICU analgesia. The onset time of naporphine was equivalent to sufentanil, and it had a certain sedative effect and less influence on hemodynamics.

ABSTRACT

Objective To assess the bone tunnel area at different times and sites of the tunnel after the anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) reconstruction in rabbits using Micro-CT.Methods Fifteen rabbits were performed ACL reconstruction using semitendinosus tendon autograft and randomly allocated into 3 groups and killed at 3,6,and 12 weeks after the operation.All samples undertook the micro-CT scanning(using SkyScan 1176,Bruker,U.S.A.) and were analyzed the areas of bone tunnels of femur and tibia after the 3-demension image rebuilding.For each tunnel,the area of the entrance,middle and exit of the tunnel were measured 3 times respectively and compared.Results The average area of the femoral tunnel did not change significantly with time,being 4.84 mm2,4.57 mm2 and 4.46 mm2 at 3,6 and 12 weeks after the operation(P=0.99).At the very beginning,the femoral tunnel area at the entrance was the biggest,while that of the middle was the smallest.Six weeks after the operation,significant differences were observed between the femoral tunnel area at the entrance and middle,as well as that between the exit and middle(P=0.0011,P=0.0106);However,12 weeks after the operation,significant differences were observed only between that at the entrance and middle(P=0.0227).The average tibial tunnel area increased significantly at 6 weeks(6.577 mm2) and decreased at 12 weeks(3.103 mm2) after the operation(P=0.0005).Moreover,no significant differences were observed in the average tibial tunnel area at different time points and sites(P<0.05).At different sites,the average tibial tunnel area expanded at 6 weeks,and then declined at 12 weeks after the operation.Conclusion The bone tunnel area changes with time after the ACL reconstruction,first increasing followed by decreasing in the average tibial tunnel area.The femur and tibial tunnel have significant differences in the tunnel area at different sites,which change differently with time.The bone tunnel expansion after the anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction can be comprehensively measured repeatedly at different sites.

ABSTRACT

Objective: Passive CLARITY is a whole-tissue clearing protocol, based on sodium dodecyl sulfate [SDS] clearing, for imaging intact tissue containing transgenic or immunolabeled fluorescent proteins. In this study, we present an improved passive CLARITY protocol with efficient immunolabeling without the need for electrophoresis or complex instrumentation


Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, after perfusion of C57BL/6N mice with phosphate-buffered saline [PBS] and then with acrylamide-paraformaldehyde [PFA], the quadriceps femoris muscle was removed. The muscle samples were post-fixed and degassed to initiate polymerization. After removing the excess hydrogel around the muscle, lipids were washed out with the passive CLARITY technique. The transparent whole intact muscles were labeled for vessel and neuron markers, and then imaged by confocal microscopy. Three-dimensional images were reconstructed to present the muscle tissue architecture


Results: We established a simple clearing protocol using wild type mouse muscle and labeling of vasculatures and neurons. Imaging the fluorescent signal was achieved by protein fixation, adjusting the pH of the SDS solution and using an optimum temperature [37degree C] for tissue clearing, all of which contributed to the superiority of our protocol


Conclusion: We conclude that this passive CLARITY protocol can be successfully applied to three-dimensional cellular and whole muscle imaging in mice, and will facilitate structural analyses and connectomics of large assemblies of muscle cells, vessels and neurons in the context of three-dimensional systems
