RESUMO
【Objective】 To investigate the correlation between perioperative zero red blood cell(RBC) transfusion and the prognosis of patients with acute Stanford type A aortic dissection. 【Methods】 A retrospective analysis was made on 96 patients who underwent one-stop Hybrid surgery for acute Stanford type A aortic dissection in our hospital from May 2021 to May 2022. The patients were divided into two groups according to whether they received perioperative RBC transfusion: zero RBC transfusion group (group A, n=26) and RBC transfusion group (group B, n=70). The preoperative general data and laboratory indexes were recorded and the propensity score matching method was used to screen the patients with the same preoperative baseline data, with comparison of operation-related indicators, intraoperative and postoperative blood component dosage and prognostic indicators. 【Results】 With BMI index, hemoglobin, platelet count, and troponin T as co variables, 48 patients were included in the study after matching according to 1∶1 propensity score: Group A (n=24) and Group B (n=24). Compared with group A, hemoglobin and hematocrit in group B decreased significantly at the end of operation and 24 h after operation, with a statistically significant difference (P0.05). 【Conclusion】 The perioperative hemoglobin of patients with acute Stanford type A aortic dissection with zero RBC transfusion did not significantly decrease, and the postoperative complications and mortality did not increase.
RESUMO
Objective:To identify the effective concentrations of Ropivacaine in the modified fascial iliac compartment block(FICB)that would not affect the movement of the affected limb but would offer effective pain relief after total knee arthroplasty(TKA)in elderly patients.In addition, adverse reactions within 24 hours of FICB were examined.Methods:This study was a prospective, single-arm sequential trial.Forty-five elderly patients treated with TKA at the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University between September 2021 and March 2022 were selected, with an American Society of Anesthesiologists(ASA)score of Ⅰ or Ⅱ.All patients were given ultrasound-guided FICB on the surgical side under general anesthesia and 10 minutes before the operation, and the injection volume was 30 ml.According to preliminary experiments and relevant literature, the initial concentration of Ropivacaine was 0.1%, and the concentration for the next patient was determined using a modified Dixon sequential method.If the quadriceps femoris muscle strength score of the first patient was ≥4, there was no resting pain[visual analogue scale(VAS)score ≤1], and the VAS score during activity was ≤3, the concentration for the next patient would be reduced.Conversely, the concentration would be increased.The Ropivacaine concentration was increased or decreased by 0.01% each time and the trial would be stopped after 12 reentries.The median effective concentration(ED50), 95% effective concentration(ED95)and corresponding 95% confidence interval(CI)of ropivacaine were calculated using the probit model.Meanwhile, adverse reactions within 24 hours of FICB were monitored.Results:Of 43 elderly patients who completed the trial, the intervention was effective in 23 and ineffective in 20.While ensuring that postoperative limb movement in elderly patients was not affected, a single injection of 30 ml ropivacaine through FICB was able to effectively inhibit postoperative pain, and the ED50 and ED95 of ropivacaine were 0.072%(95% CI: 0.065%-0.078%)and 0.093%(95% CI: 0.084%-0.124%), respectively.Within 24 hours of FICB, 2 patients had lower limb weakness and could not get out of bed and walk, and 5 patients had severe pain and needed additional analgesics.No other adverse reactions were found. Conclusions:The effective ED50 and ED95 of Ropivacaine for postoperative pain relief in elderly patients after TKA are 0.072% and 0.093%, respectively.And the incidence of adverse reactions is low.
RESUMO
【Objective】 To investigate the effects of dexmedetomidine (DEX) intervention on the expressions of chondrocytes and related factors in vitro and its possible molecular mechanisms. 【Methods】 C28/I2 normal human chondrocyte lines were cultured in vitro, and dexmedetomidine at the concentration of 1 μmol/L was selected to intervene for 24 h and 48 h, respectively. The morphology and cell density of chondrocytes were observed after DEX culture at different time points. Immunofluorescence technique was used to detect the expression levels of disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 5 (ADAMTS5) in chondrocytes in each group. The expression levels of Adamts5, aggrecan (Acan), versican (Vcan), Furin, proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 6 (Pcsk6), collagen type Ⅰ alpha 1 (Col1a1), collagen type Ⅱ alpha 1 (Col2a1), collagen type X alpha 1 (Col10a1), and SRY2 related high mobility group box gene9 (Sox9) were detected by RT-PCR. Adamts5 gene knockout chondrocytes were constructed by lentivirus transfection technology and treated with DEX; RT-PCR was used to detect the effects of DEX on the expression levels of Acan, Vcan, Furin, Pcsk6 and Sox9 after Adamts5 gene knockout. 【Results】 After 24 and 48 h of intervention with 1 μmol/L DEX, the morphology and size of chondrocytes did not change significantly, but the cell density increased slightly. Immunofluorescence assay showed that the expression of ADAMTS5 increased at first and then decreased after DEX treatment for 24 and 48h, respectively (P=0.032). RT-PCR results showed that with the extension of intervention time, the expression of Adamts5 first increased and then decreased. The expression difference between 48 and 24 h after culture was statistically significant (P=0.032). The change trend of Pcsk6 was the same as that of Adamts5, while the change trend of Acan expression was opposite that of Adamts5. Chondrocytes knocked out Adamts5 gene and intervened with DEX for 24 and 48 h. The results of RT-PCR showed that the expression of Pcsk6 decreased while that of Acan increased and the changes were significant. 【Conclusion】 Dexmedetomidine may activate ADAMTS5 zymogen through Pcsk6, thereby promoting proteoglycan degradation in chondrocytes.

Objective:To evaluate the sedative effect of remimazolam for induction of general anesthesia in elderly patients.Methods:One hundred patients of both sexes, aged 65-75 yr, with American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ, undergoing elective general anesthesia requiring tracheal intubation, were divided into 4 groups ( n=25 each) using a random number table method: propofol group (group P) and three different doses of remimazolam groups (group R1, group R2 and group R3). In group P, general anesthesia was induced with propofol 1.5 mg/kg intravenously injected over 30 s, cisatracurium 0.2 mg/kg and fentanyl 4 μg/kg were intravenously injected when bispectral index (BIS) value ≤ 60, and endotracheal intubation was performed.In R1, R2 and R3 groups, general anesthesia was induced with 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4 mg/kg of remimazolam intravenously injected over 30 s, respectively, cisatracurium 0.2 mg/kg and fentanyl 4 μg/kg were intravenously injected when BIS value ≤ 60, and endotracheal intubation was performed.When the BIS value was > 60 during the induction of anesthesia, propofol 0.5 mg/kg was intravenously injected per time for rescue sedation in group P, and remimazolam 0.05 mg/kg was intravenously injected per time for rescue sedation until the BIS value ≤ 60, with the interval between the two injections > 1 min in R1, R2, and R3 groups.The onset time of propofol or remazolam was recorded.The occurrence of hypertension, hypotension, bradycardia, hypoxemia, injection pain and rescue sedation during the induction of anesthesia was recorded.The occurrence of intraoperative awareness was recorded during follow-up at 1 day after surgery. Results:Compared with group P, the rate of rescue sedation was significantly increased in group R1, the incidence of hypoxemia was significantly reduced in R1 and R2 groups, the onset time was significantly prolonged, and the incidence of hypotension, bradycardia and injection pain was decreased in R1, R2 and R3 groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group R1, the rate of rescue sedation was significantly decreased in R2 and R3 groups ( P<0.05). Compared with R1 and R2 groups, the incidence of hypoxemia was significantly increased in group R3 ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of hypotension, hypoxemia and injection pain among R1 group, R2 group and R3 group ( P>0.05). No hypertension and intraoperative awareness was found in the four groups. Conclusion:Remimazolam can be safely and effectively used for sedation during induction of general anesthesia in elderly patients, and the optimal dose is 0.3 mg/kg.
RESUMO
Objective To compare the effectiveness of Remifentanil versus Fentanyl anesthesia applied in urological laparoscopic surgery. Methods A total of 78 patients undergoing urologic endoscopy in our hospital from July 2016 to December 2017 were recruited ,and randomly divided into the Remifentanil group(n= 39)with Remifentanil anesthesia and the Fentanyl group(n= 39)with Fentanyl anesthesia. The changes in mean arterial pressure and heart rate ,anesthetic effects and adverse reaction rates during anesthesia were compared between the two groups. Results The reduction of mean arterial pressure of premedication/induction of anesthesia(T0)was more pronounced in the Fentanyl group than in the Remifentanil group(t=2.855 ,P=0.003) ,but the heart rate was lower in the Remifentanil group than in the Fentanyl group(t= 4.405 ,P= 0.000).The changes of heart rate and mean arterial pressure were more significant in the Fentanyl group than in Remifentanil group immediately after tracheal intubation (T1) ,during incision of skin(T2) ,immediately after suture of the abdomen (T3) and immediately after removal of the tracheal tube (T4) ( P ＜ 0.05 ). The spontaneous respiration recovery time ,blinking time ,extubation time ,force recovery time and recovery time were shorter in the Remifentanil group than in the Fentanyl group(P＜0.05).The incidence of anesthetic adverse reactions was lower in the Remifentanil group than in the Fentanyl group (10.3% , 4/39 vs.28.2% ,11/39 ,χ2= 4.044 ,P= 0.044). Conclusions Both Remifentanil and Fentanyl groups have good anesthetic effects in urological anesthesia ,but Remifentanil has less fluctuations of perioperative blood pressure and heart rate ,has higher recovery quality and less anesthetic adverse reactions. Therefore ,Remifentanil anesthesia is worthy of promotion.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the relationship between p38mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK) signaling pathway and calcium over-loading during oxygen-glucose deprivation and restoration (OGD/R) in cardiomyocytes of rats.Methods Cardiomyocytes obtained from Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 1-3 days,were cultured and divided into 3 groups (n =27 each) using a random number table method:control group (group C),group OGD/R and p38MAPK inhibitor SB203580 group (group SB).The cells were subjected to OGD for 6 h followed by restoration of O2-glucose supply for 2 h.Ceils were incubated for 1 h with 10 μmol/L SB203580 in group SB.At 2 h of restoration of O2-glucose supply,cell morphology was observed under an inverted microscope,cell viability was measured by the CCK-8 method,the release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in the supernatant was determined by 2,4-dinitrobenzene chromogenic method,intracellular calcium concentration was determined by flow cytometry,and the expression of phosphorylated p38MAPK (p-p38MAPK) and p38MAPK was detected using Western blot.The LDH release rate and p-p38MAPK/p38MAPK ratio were calculated.Results Compared with group C,the LDH release rate,intracellular calcium concentration and p-p38MAPK/p38MAPK were significantly increased,and the cell viability was markedly decreased in group OGD/R and group SB (P＜0.05).Compared with OGD/R group,the LDH release rate,intracellular calcium concentration and p-p38MAPK/p38MAPK ratio were significantly decreased,the cell viability was increased (P＜0.05),the cell morphology was nearly normal,and the number of cells was increased in group SB.Conclusion p38MAPK signaling pathway can mediate calcium overload after being activated and is involved in the pathophysiological mechanism of OGD/R in cardiomyocytes of rats.

RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the effects of maternal exposure to sevoflurane for anesthesia or surgery on social interaction behaviors in offspring mice. Methods Fifteen pregnant C57BL∕6 mice on ges-tational day 18 were assigned into 3 groups(n=5 each)using a random number table: control group (group C), sevoflurane anesthesia group(group Sevo)and surgery group(group Surg). Group C inhaled 100% oxygen for 2 h in group C. Group Sevo inhaled 3% sevoflurane in oxygen for 2 h. In group Surg, 3%sevoflurane in oxygen was inhaled for 2 h and exploratory laparotomy was performed. At juvenile age(on 30th day after births)and in early adulthood(on 60th day after births), the offspring mice underwent so-cial interaction tests using the three-chambered sociability paradigm, including sociability and preference for social novelty. Results During 1st testing phase: there was no significant difference in time spent in ex-ploring the chamber on the left and right sides or in sniffing directed at the empty wire cage on the left and right sides among the three groups(P>005). During 2nd testing phase: time spent in exploring the cham-ber containing stranger-1 mouse in the wire cage and in sniffing directed at the wire cage containing stranger-1 mouse was significantly prolonged at juvenile age and in early adulthood in three groups when compared with the empty wire cage(P<005). During 3rd testing phase: compared with stranger-1 mouse, time spent in exploring the chamber containing stranger-2 mouse at juvenile age and in sniffing directed at the wire cage containing stranger-2 mouse at juvenile age and in early adulthood was significantly prolonged in group C, time spent in exploring the chamber containing stranger-2 mouse and in sniffing directed at the wire cage containing stranger-2 mouse was significantly prolonged in early adulthood in group Sevo, and time spent in sniffing directed at the wire cage containing stranger-2 mouse was significantly prolonged in early adulthood in group Surg(P<005). Conclusion Maternal exposure to sevoflurane for anesthesia or surgery induces social interaction deficits in the offspring mice in which lower levels of preference for social novelty are detected, especially at juvenile age.

RESUMO
Objective To compare dexmedetomidine versus midazolam sedation for myocardial protection in the patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods Sixty patients with acute myocardial infarction who required for emergency PCI,were selected and randomly divided into 2 groups (n =30 each) using a random number table:dexmedetomidine group (group D) and midazolam group (group M).In group D,a loading dose of dexmedetomidine 1 μg/kg was infused intravenously for 10 min before surgery.In group M,midazolam 0.05 mg/kg was injected intravenously before surgery.Dexmedetomidine 0.2-1.4 μg· kg-1 · h-1 and midazolam 0.02-0.10 mg·kg-1 ·h-1 were given via a pump during surgery until the end of surgery in the two groups.The RASS score was maintained at-2-2 in two groups.Before administration and on 3rd day after surgery,cardiovascular color doppler ultrasound was performed to record left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF),venous blood samples were collected for determination of the levels of serum myocardial enzyme and cardiac troponin I (cTnI),and the development of surgical complications,duration of ICU stay and length of hospital stay were recorded.Results Compared with group M,the activities of serum creatine kinase,creatine kinase isoenzyme-MB,aspartate amino transferase and lactic dehydrogenase and cTnI concentrations were significantly decreased,LVEF was increased,and duration of ICU stay and length of hospital stay were shortened in group D.There was no significant difference in the development of postoperative complications between the two groups.Conclusion Dexmedetomidine sedation provides better efficacy for myocardial protection and prognosis and is more suitable for sedation than midazolam in the patients undergoing PCI.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the correlation between stroke volume variation (SVV) and blood volume during hypovolemia.Methods Twenty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged 20-64 years,with body mass index (BMI) of 20-30 kg/m2,scheduled for elective orthopedic operation were enrolled in this study.Anesthesia was induced with dexamethasone,midazolam,propofol,fentanyl and cisatracurium,and maintained with sevoflurane,fentanyl and cisatracurium.Then the patients received endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation.Heart rate (HR),mean arterial blood pressure (MAP),central venous pressure (CVP),arterial pressure-based cardiac output (APCO),SW,systemic vascular resistance (SVR) and cardiac index (Cl) were recorded 5 minutes after endotracheal intubation.Blood was taken from the central vein at a rate of 30-50 ml/min and the volume was 5％ of the whole blood volume,and then haemodynamic parameters mentioned above were recorded after the haemodynamics were kept stable for 5 minutes.Blood was taken again with the method mentioned above and the haemodynamic parameters were recorded.Then 6％ hydroxyethyl starch (HES) 130/0.4 was infused at 50-70 ml/min via the right internal jugular vein,and the volume was equal to 5％ of the whole blood volume,and then haemodynamic parameters were recorded after the haemodynamics was kept stable for 5 minutes.Fluid replacement was performed again using the method mentioned above and the haemodynamic parameters were recorded.Linear correlation of the changes in blood volume (difference between the blood volume at each time point and the baseline value) with dSVV (difference between the value monitored at each time point and the baseline value) was analyzed.Results Significant changes were found in SW,APCO and Cl after each change in blood volume (P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01),while no significant changes were found in HR,MAP,CVP and SVR after each change in blood volume.The change in blood volume was negatively correlated with dSVV (r =-0.875,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion There is high correlation between SVV and blood volume during hypovolemia.And SVV can reflect the changes in blood volume accurately and can be used for volume therapy during hypovolemia.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the effect of dexmedetomidine on the inflammatory responses in brain tissues in septic rats.Methods Seventy-two male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 10 weeks,weighing 250-280 g,were randomly divided into 4 groups (n =18 each):control group (group C); sepsis group (group lipopolysaccharide (LPS)) ; distilled water group (group DW) and dexmedetomidine group (group D).Sepsis was induced by intraperitoneal injection of LPS 5 mg/kg (dissolved in normal saline 1 ml) in groups LPS,DW and DEX,while normal saline 1 ml was injected intraperitoneally in group C.Distilled water 20 μl was injected into the lateral cerebral ventricle in group DW,while dexmedetomidine 3 μg/kg (dissolved in distilled water 20μl) was injected into the lateral cerebral ventricle in group DEX.Six animals were sacrificed at 1,2 and 6 h after administration and hippocampi were removed for determination of TNF-α and IL-6 contents (by ELISA) and TLR4 mRNA expression in hippocampal tissues (by RT-PCR).Results Compared with group C,TNF-α and IL-6 contents in hippocampus tissues were significantly increased at each time point after administration in group LPS (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with group LPS,no significant change was found in TNF-α and IL-6 contents in hippocampal tissues (P ＞ 0.05),and TLR4 mRNA expression was significantly up-regulated at each time point after administration in group DW (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with group DW,TNF-α and IL-6 contents in hippocampal tissues were significantly decreased at each time point after administration,and TLR4 mRNA expression was significantly up-regulated at 2 and 6 h after administration in group DEX (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Dexmedetomidine can reduce inflammatory responses in brain tissues in septic rats via down-regulating TLR-4 mRNA expression.

RESUMO
Objective To compare the time course of distribution and elimination of gelatin and lactated Ringer's solution (LR) by volume kinetics and mass balance analysis during hemorrhagic shock in dogs, and try to design and optimize fluid therapy in a more scientific manner. Methods Twenty dogs were randomly divided into 4 groups: CL group, CG group, BL group, and BG group. Each animal was subjected to two randomly ordered experiments that separated for at least 1 week. In the first phase, plasma volume expansion was studied in the state of anesthesia, animals received 30 mL/kg of LR (CL group) or 10 mL/kg of gelatin (CG group) over 30 min. In the second phase, plasma volume expansion was studied in the state of hemorrhagic shock, animals received 30 mL/kg of LR (BL group) or 10 mL/kg of gelatin (BG group) over 30 min. Hb concentration and Hct were measured every 5 min during and after infusion for 90 min. Hemodynamic parameters were recorded at the same time. The distribution and elimination of infused fluid were studied by volume kinetics, based on serial analysis of hemoglobin dilution in arterial blood, and by mass balance that incorporated volume calculations derived from volume kinetic analysis and measurements of urinary volumes. Results When a one-volume kinetic model was fitted to the data, the value of V and Kr in CG, BL, and BG group were significantly smaller than those in CL group (P<0.05), which could be found from the computer-generated curves.When a two-volume kinetic model was fitted to the data, the value of V1, Kr, Kt in BL group were significantly smaller than those in CL group (P<0.05). The calculations based on mass balance corresponded to the predicted based on volume kinetics. The change of central volume (CCV) in BL, BG, and CG group was significantly greater than those in CL group (P<0.05). The VEE in BG and CG group was significantly higher than that in BL and CL group. The value of VEE in BL group was significantly higher than that in CL group (P<0.05). Conclusions Both of the efficacy of lactated Ringer's solution and gelatin increased significantly in the state of hemorrhagic shock, and the former increased more.
