Time comparison of artificial airway establishment in operating room and on slope using endotracheal intubation and laryngeal mask / 北京大学学报(医学版)

OBJECTIVE@#To compare the completion time of endotracheal intubation and laryngeal mask implantation in operating room and on slope of ski resort, and to discuss the optimal method of estab-lishing artificial airway on slope of ski resort.@*METHODS@#The simulator was placed with the head under the feet on slope of ski resort. The artificial airway was established by tracheal intubation assisted by video laryngoscope (endotracheal intubation group) and laryngeal mask placement (laryngeal mask group) respectively by an anesthesiologist who wore full set of ski suits, helmets, goggles, gloves and ski boots. Each method was repeated 5 times, and the operation time of artificial airway establishment was recorded. While the simulated human was placed flat on the operating table in an operating room of a hospital, and the artificial airway was established by the same anesthesiologist using the same methods. Time was recorded and repeated for 5 times. The completion time of endotracheal intubation and laryngeal mask placement in the operating room and on the ski slope were compared.@*RESULTS@#The operating time of tracheal intubation in the operating room was longer than that of laryngeal mask placement [(79.8±10.4) s vs. (53.4±2.7) s, P=0.005], and the operating time of endotracheal intubation on the ski slope was longer than that of laryngeal mask placement [(209.2±32.7) s vs. (72.2±3.1) s, P=0.001]. The time of endotracheal intubation group on the slope of the ski resort was longer than that in the opera-ting room(t=-7.851, P=0.001). The time of laryngeal mask group on the slope was longer than that in the operating room (t=-19.391, P < 0.001).@*CONCLUSION@#On ski slope, both of tracheal intubation assisted by video laryngoscope and laryngeal mask placement can quickly complete the establishment of artificial airway, but the time required is longer than that in the operating room. The time of laryngeal mask placement to establish artificial airway is shorter than that of tracheal intubation assisted video laryngoscope, which may have a certain advantage in ski rescue.

Risk factors for 10-year mortality in patients with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease / 中华全科医师杂志

Objective:To explore the independent risk factors that predict 10-year mortality in patients with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD).Methods:The baseline data from a prospective cohort study were analyzed and long-term follow-up were performed. Patients with confirmed diagnosis of stable COPD were consecutively enrolled in the outpatient clinic from January 2010 to December 2010, and were followed up until December 31, 2020. Cox regression analysis was used to determine the independent risk factors for all-cause mortality and mortality from respiratory causes in stable COPD patients.Results:A total of 182 stable COPD patients were enrolled and followed up for a median of 89 months. The 10-year mortality was 51.1%(93/182), and 9 patients died within one year. The leading cause of death was respiratory disorder, followed by cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The risk factors independently associated with all-cause mortality included old age( HR=1.936,95% CI: 1.610~2.328, P<0.01), increased baseline COPD Assessment Test(CAT)( HR=1.331,95% CI: 1.049-1.689, P=0.02) and the increased CAT in one year( HR=1.314,95% CI: 1.197-1.420, P<0.01). The risk factors independently associated with respiratory cause mortality included increased baseline CAT( HR=1.719,95% CI: 1.026-2.880, P=0.04), emphysema index(LAA%)( HR=1.062,95% CI: 1.007-1.120, P=0.03), and one year inecreased CAT( HR=1.342,95% CI: 1.198-1.505, P<0.01)was a protective factor. Conclusions:Old age, baseline CAT, one year increased in CAT and LAA% were independent influencing factors for 10-year mortality of stable COPD patients.

Effect of different shunt strategies on cerebral infarction after carotid endarterectomy / 北京大学学报(医学版)

OBJECTIVE@#The key point of anesthesia management in carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is to maintain adequate cerebral perfusion during carotid artery occlusion. Placement of shunt is one of the common surgical methods. This study analyzed the effects of different shunt strategies on cerebral infarction after carotid endarterectomy.@*METHODS@#A total of 443 patients who underwent CEA under general anesthesia within 2 years were divided into imaging group (based on preoperative imaging data as the basis for shunt) and stump pressure group (based on intraoperative stump pressure as the basis for shunt). The preoperative demographic data, past medical history, degree of cervical vascular stenosis, blood pressure at each time point during the perioperative period, vascular blocking time, whether to place the shunt, postoperative hospital stay, cerebral infarction during hospitalization, and other adverse events were collected and compared between the two groups. On this basis, the preoperative and intraoperative conditions with significant differences were matched with propensity scores, and the influence of different shunt strategies on postoperative cerebral infarction was analyzed.@*RESULTS@#In the study, 268 patients in the imaging group and 175 patients in the stump pressure group underwent CEA under general anesthesia. There were statistically significant differences in basic conditions and blood pressure at each time point between the two groups. After matching the propensity scores, 105 patients in each of the two groups were matched. The basic conditions of the patients before surgery and the difference in blood pressure of the two groups at each time point were not statistically significant. There was no significant diffe-rence in the incidence of postoperative cerebral infarction between the two groups (1.9% vs. 1.0%, P>0.999). The intraoperative shunt rate in the imaging group was lower than that in the stump pressure group (0 vs. 22.9%, P < 0.001). The postoperative hospital stay in the imaging group was 8 (7, 8) days, which was longer than the stump pressure group 5 (4, 6) days (P < 0.001).@*CONCLUSION@#The rate of the shunt was lower according to preoperative imaging examination than that according to the residual pressure in our hospital. There is no significant difference in the incidence of cerebral infarction during the postoperative hospital stay. The effect of different shunt strategies on cerebral infarction needs further study.

Objective:To investigate the diagnostic value of Japan NBI Expert Team (JNET) classification with blue-laser imaging magnifying endoscopy (BLI-ME) for colorectal neoplastic lesions.Methods:Data of 40 colorectal neoplastic lesions in 34 patients that received BLI-ME from September 2016 to December 2018 in Peking University International Hospital were reviewed and endoscopic images from those lesions were selected. Four senior endoscopists analyzed and classified these images according to the JNET criteria and determined the possible pathologic type. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) of JNET classification under BLI-ME system were calculated with final pathologic results as the golden standard.Results:Of all the 40 lesions, there were 3 non-cancerous lesions, 20 adenoma, 10 high grade intraepithelial neoplasia/submucosal-superficial lesions and 7 submucosal-deep lesions. The accuracy of 4 endoscopists was 75.00%-87.50%, and 65.38%-95.89% for different JNET types. For each JNET type, the sensitivity was 60.71%-91.67%, specificity was 84.17%-97.73%, PPV was 63.46%-95.89%, and NPV was 88.51%-99.31%. For the 4 endoscopists, the assurance rate of surface pattern was 73.08%-100.00%, 80.77%-100.00% for deciding vascular pattern, and 67.31%-100.00% for deciding final JNET type. The Kappa value between any two endoscopists was 0.630-0.887, and the interclass correlation coefficient for all results was 0.880. Conclusion:JNET classification shows significant diagnostic value under BLI-ME system for colorectal neoplastic lesions.

Application of modified closed biopsy in rabbit model of VX2 transplanted bone tumor / 解放军医学杂志

Objective To explore the application value of modified closed biopsy technique in puncture biopsy of rabbit model of VX2 transplanted bone tumor. Methods VX2 tumor tissue was cut from rabbit with VX2 tumor and transplanted into the bilateral tibia of 30 rabbits through the tibial plateau to make the model of VX2 transplanted bone tumor. Seven days after modeling, the proximal tibia puncture biopsy was performed under the guidance of X-ray, and the biopsy specimen was examined pathologically. The left leg was biopsied with modified closed biopsy technique (experimental group), and the right leg was biopsied with hollow needle (control group). On the 14th day after modeling, all rabbits were executed after X-ray examination around the puncture hole, and the soft tissue around the puncture hole was taken for pathological examination. Results By the end of the experiment, a total of 3 rabbits died, and finally 27 rabbits were included in the study. Tumor cells were detected in all the intramedullary specimens obtained by puncture biopsy. On the 14th day after modeling, X-ray examination showed that, compared with control group, the incidence of periosteal reaction and extraosseous high density shadow around the puncture hole, and the tumor cell metastasis rate were lower [14.81%(4/27) vs. 40.74%(11/27); 29.63%(8/27) vs. 100.00%(27/27)], the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusions Both the modified closed biopsy technique and puncture needle aspiration biopsy can provide sufficient biopsy tissue for diagnosis of VX2 transplanted bone tumor in rabbits. Meanwhile, the improved closed biopsy technique can prevent local metastasis of tumor cells along the puncture channel to some extent.

Clinical significance and influencing factors of linked color imaging technique in real-time diagnosis of active Helicobacter pylori infection / 中华医学杂志(英文版)

Background@#Determining the Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection state during the gastroscopic process is important but still challenging. The linked color imaging (LCI) technique might emphasize the mucosal color change after H. pylori infection, which might help the diagnosis. In the present study, we aimed to compare the LCI technique with traditional white light imaging (WLI) endoscopy for diagnosing active H. pylori infection.@*Methods@#We collected and analyzed gastroscopic images from 103 patients in our hospital from November 2017 to March 2018, including both LCI and WLI modes. All images were randomly disordered and independently evaluated by four endoscopists who were blinded to the H. pylori status of patients. In addition, the H. pylori state was determined by both rapid urease test and pathology staining. The sensitivity, specificity, positive prediction value (PPV), and negative prediction value (NPV) were calculated for the detection of H. pylori infection. Moreover, the kappa value and interclass correlation coefficient (ICC) were used to evaluate the inter-observer variety by SPSS 24.0 software.@*Results@#Of the 103 enrolled patients, 27 of them were positive for H. pylori infection, while the 76 patients were negative. In total, 388 endoscopic images were selected, including 197 WLI and 191 LCI. The accuracy rate for H. pylori evaluation in the corpus LCI group was significantly higher than other groups (81.2% vs. 64.3%-76.5%, χ2 = 34.852, P < 0.001). Moreover, the corpus LCI group had the optimal diagnostic power with the sensitivity of 85.41% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 76.40%-91.51%), the specificity of 79.71% (95% CI: 74.38%-84.19%), the PPV of 59.42% (95% CI: 50.72%-67.59%), and the NPV of 94.02% (95% CI: 89.95%-96.56%), respectively. The kappa values between different endoscopists were higher with LCI than with WLI (0.433-0.554 vs. 0.331-0.554). Consistently, the ICC value was also higher with LCI than with WLI (0.501 [95% CI: 0.429-0.574] vs. 0.397 [95% CI: 0.323-0.474]). We further analyzed the factors that might lead to misjudgment, revealing that active inflammation might disturb WLI judgment (accuracy rate: 58.70% vs. 76.16%, χ2 = 21.373, P < 0.001). Atrophy and intestinal metaplasia might affect the accuracy of the LCI results (accuracy rate: 66.96% vs. 73.47%, χ2 = 2.027; 68.42% vs. 73.53 %, χ2 = 1.594, respectively); however, without statistical significance (P = 0.154 and 0.207, respectively).@*Conclusions@#The application of LCI at the corpus to identify H. pylori infection is reliable and superior to WLI. The inter-observer variability is lower with LCI than with WLI.@*Trial registration@#Chinese Clinical Trial Registry: ChiCTR1800016730; http://www.chictr.org.cn/showproj.aspx?proj=28400

Analysis of the related risk factors of postoperative delirium in patients with Stanford type A aortic dissection / 天津医药

Objective To analyze the related risk factors of postoperative delirium(POD)in patients with Stanford type A aortic dissection, and to guide clinical practices. Methods The clinical data of 118 cases [81 males and 37 females, average age (55.0 ± 10.3) years] with Stanford type A aortic dissection in Tianjin Chest Hospital from January 2016 to December 2017 were analysed in this study. According to whether developed delirium after surgery, the patients were divided into POD group(n=56)and Non-POD group(n=62).The preoperative,perioperative,and postoperative clinical data were collected.The univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the risk factors of POD in patients with the Stanford type A aortic dissection. Results Single factor analysis showed that the proportions of drinking and cerebrovascular history significantly increased,the proportions of early electrolyte disorder and hypoxemia significantly increased, the levels of granulocytes / lymphocytes, circulatory time and blood volume during operation increased significantly, and the duration from onset to operation was decreased, but fibrinogen level decreased significantly in POD group than those of Non-POD group (P < 0.05). Multivariate Logistic analysis indicated that the more intraoperative consumption of blood (OR=1.733, 95% CI:1.409-2.129) and early postoperative electrolyte disorder (OR=10.500, 95% CI:2.930-37.622)were independent risk factors of POD,while the higher level of preoperative fibrinogen(OR=0.157,95% CI:0.050-0.635) and longer time from onset to surgery (OR=0.871, 95% CI:0.808-0.943) were protective factors of POD in patients with Stanford type A aortic dissection.Conclusion The early identification of risk factors of POD,and the active intervention of POD have a positive significance to reduce the occurrence of POD.

Objective To investigate the relationship between calcific aortic valve stenosis and inflammatory cells in peripheral blood and dyslipidemia in elderly patients(age ≥65 years).Methods A total of 76 elderly patients(≥65 years old)diagnosed as calcific aortic stenosis in our hospital from June 2015 to June 2017 were selected as the case group,and 78 seniors(excluding valvular heart disease)hospitalized due to chest discomfort were selected as the control group.The white blood cell count (WBC), neutrophil ratio (N%), neutrophil count (N), lymphocyte count (L), neutrophil lymphocyte ratio (NLR),hypersensitive C-reactive protein(hs-CRP),N-terminal B-type natriuretic peptide(NT-pro BNP),total cholesterol (TC),triglyceride(TG),apo-α,high-density lipoprotein(HDL),low-density lipoprotein(LDL),very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL)and other indicators were tested on admission.All these indicators were compared between the two groups. Results The levels of WBC, N%,N,NLR, hs-CRP, NT-pro BNP,VLDL were higher in the case group than those in the control group.The levels of L and HDL were significantly lower in the case group than those of the control group(P<0.05).Multiple regression analysis showed that smoking, the increased hs-CRP and NT-pro BNP levels were independent risk factors for senile calcific aortic stenosis.Conclusion Senile calcific aortic stenosis is not a simple degenerative disease.It is closely related to systemic inflammatory response and abnormal lipid metabolism.

Monitoring of Oxidation Process of Human Milk Lipid Substitutes by Molecular Fluorescence Spectroscopy / 分析化学

The fatty acid contents in soybean oil, corn oil, coconut oil, sunflower seed oil and fish oil were detected by gas chromatography. According to the characteristics of fatty acids of raw oil and the relevant regulations of GB 10765-2010,the formula of 6 kinds of human milk lipid substitutes was designed by Matlab software and Excel linear programming. At the same time, the Schaal oven accelerated oxidation method was used to study the oxidation process of 6 formulations using synchronous fluorescence technique combined with traditional chemical reagents (oxidation index:peroxide value,value of fennel and total oxidation value). By statistical analysis of data, the statistical relationship between fluorescence intensity and oxidation index was explored. The results showed that the main fatty acids of coconut oil were lauric acid and myristic acid,and its saturated fatty acid content was the highest 93.75% ±0.06%;while all the other oils were mainly composed of palmitic acid,linoleic acid and other components,wherein the fish oil had the highest content of unsaturated fatty acid. With the increase of oxidation time,the fluorescence intensity decreased gradually and the oxidation index value increased continuously. The correlation analysis and regression analysis results showed that the change of oxidation index and the fluorescence intensity of 6 samples had negative correlation, and the fluorescence intensity and the peroxide value and total oxidation value was quadratic linear correlation, and anisidine value as a linear correlation had strong correlation.

The application of Warden series operation in partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection / 天津医药

@#To clarify the efficacy and safety of Warden series operation in partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection (PAPVC). Methods Six patients with PAPVC (pulmonary vein drainage to superior vena cava), who were treated in cardiac surgery of Tianjin Chest Hospital from January 2016 to March 2018, were included in this study. All 6 patients underwent Warden series operation, including 3 with Warden surgery and another 3 with modified Warden surgery. Two patients underwent modified Warden surgery were rebuilt by autologous pericardial patch and 1 cases were connected to the superior vena cava and the right atrium with Gor-Tax vessels. The echocardiography and electrocardiogram were reviewed regularly after operation (1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year after operation，1 time a year for more than 1 year after the operation). The changes of cardiac structure, superior vena cava and pulmonary venous reflux and arrhythmia were observed. Results All patients were discharged successfully. The patients were followed up for 3 months to 2 years. No residual anomalous shunt was found in reexaminating echocardiography, and superior vena cava and pulmonary venous return were unobstructed. Electrocardiogram showed sinus rhythm and no obvious abnormality. Conclusion The application of Warden series operation in partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection is safe and effective.
