RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the effects of compound insulation measure in operation room on hypothermia of cesarean section of very low birth weight infant (VLBWI).Methods:A total of 96 VLBWI, who were born with cesarean section in the People`s Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from January 2018 to October 2020 and admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit were enrolled in the present study. They were assigned to observation group and control group according to the enrolled time, each group was 48 cases. The control group received routine protocol, the observation group implemented the compound insulation measures. The body temperature, heart rate, blood oxygen saturation (SpO 2), end tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure (P ETCO 2) were measured at birth, 10 min after birth and before entering the transfer incubator. The incidence of hypothermia, hypoglycemia and hypoxemia in premature infants were compared between the two groups. Results:At 10 min after birth and before entering the transfer incubator, the body temperature, SpO 2, P ETCO 2 were (36.58 ± 0.49) ℃, 0.95 ± 0.02, (37.17 ± 3.15) mmHg (1 mmHg =0.133 kPa) and (36.50 ± 0.55) ℃, 0.94 ± 0.02, (38.08 ± 3.85) mmHg in the observation group, which were significantly higher than those in the control group (36.27 ± 0.57) ℃, 0.93 ± 0.02, (35.85 ± 3.14) mmHg and (35.75 ± 0.48) ℃, 0.93 ± 0.01, (36.63 ± 3.17) mmHg, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.03-7.13, all P<0.05). Before entering the transfer incubator, the heart rate was (140.25 ± 8.67) times/min in the observation group, which was significantly lower than that in the control group (145.89 ± 9.23) times/min, the difference was statistically significant ( t value was 3.09, P<0.05). The incidence of hypothermia, hypoglycemia and hypoxemia were 16.7%(8/48), 8.3%(4/48) and 12.5%(6/48) in the observation group, which were significantly lower than those in the control group 37.5%(18/48), 22.9%(11/48) and 29.2%(14/48), the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=5.28, 3.87, 4.04, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Evidence-based operation room compound insulation measure can effectively maintain the constant body temperature in VLBWI, reduce the incidence of hypothermia, hypoglycemia and hypoxemia.

RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the role of C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 ( CXCR4) in the dorsal root ganglia ( DRG) in incisional pain in rats. Methods Thirty-two male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 7-10 weeks, weighing 250-300 g, in which intrathecal catheters were successfully implanted, were divided into 4 groups (n＝8 each) using a random number table method: sham operation group (group S), CXCR4 antagonist AMD3100 plus sham operation group (group A+S), incisional pain group (group I) and CXCR4 antagonist AMD3100 plus incisional pain group (group A+I). Rats were anesthetized with sevoflu-rane. AMD3100 20 μg (in 10 μl of normal saline) was intrathecally injected, and no incision was made 30 min later in group A+S. A 1-cm longitudinal incision was made through skin, fascia and muscle of the plantar aspect of the left hindpaw in group I. AMD3100 20 μg (in 10 μl of normal saline) was intrathecally injected, and 30 min later the model of incisional pain was established in group A+I. The mechanical paw withdrawal threshold ( MWT) and thermal paw withdrawal latency ( TWL) were measured at 24 h before surgery and 2, 4, 8, 16 and 24 h after surgery. The rats were sacrificed after the last measurement of pain threshold and the DRGs of the lumbar segment (L4-6) were removed for detecting the expression of CXCR4, phosphorylated extracellular regulated protein kinase ( p-ERK) and total ERK ( t-ERK) by Western blot. Results Compared with group S, MWT was significantly decreased and TWL was shortened at T1-5in group I and group A+I, and the expression of CXCR4 and p-ERK in DRGs was significantly up-regulated (P＜0. 05), and no significant change was found in the expression of t-ERK in group I, no significant change was found in the expression of CXCR4, p-ERK and t-ERK in group A+I, and no significant change was found in the parameters mentioned above in group A+S (P＞0. 05). Compared with group I, MWT was significantly increased and TWL was prolonged at T1-5, the expression of CXCR4 and p-ERK in DRGs was down-regulated (P＜0. 05), and no significant change was found in the expression of t-ERK in group A+I (P＞0. 05). Conclusion CXCR4 in DRGs is involved in incisional pain, and the mechanism may be re-lated to activating ERK1∕2 signaling pathway in rats.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane (ESP) block for postoperative analgesia in the patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic pulmonary lobecto-my by comparing with paravertebral nerve block. Methods Ninety patients of both sexes, aged 18-64 yr, with body mass index of 20- 27 kg∕m2 , of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical statusⅠ-Ⅲ, scheduled for elective video-assisted thoracoscopic pulmonary lobectomy, were divided into 2 groups (n= 45 each) using a random number table: ultrasound-guided paravertebral nerve block ( group P) and ultra-sound-guided ESP block group (group E). Morphine 0. 1 mg∕kg and parecoxib sodium 40 mg were intrave-nously injected at 30 min before surgery. Ultrasound-guided ESP and paravertebral nerve blocks were per-formed with 0. 5％ ropivacaine 20 ml after anesthesia induction in E and P groups, respectively. Both groups received patient-controlled intravenous analgesia with 0. 1％ morphine 100 ml after surgery, and the analgesia pump was set up with a 1 ml bolus dose, 8 min lockout interval and no background infusion. Parecoxib 40 mg was intravenously injected every 8 h. Operation time, anesthesia time and total consumption of intraoperative remifentanil were recorded. The operation time of nerve block and development of pleu-ral puncture and vascular injury during operation were also recorded. The cumulative consumption of mor-phine was recorded at 2, 4, 6, 24 and 48 h after surgery. The development of postoperative nausea and vomiting and respiratory depression was recorded. Tramadol 100 mg was intramuscularly injected as a rescue analgesic when the visual analog scale score was more than 3. Results The operation time of nerve block was significantly shorter in group E than in group P (P<0. 05). There was no significant difference in the total consumption of intraoperative remifentanil, cumulative consumption of morphine, incidence of nausea and vomiting or requirement for rescue analgesia between two groups (P>0. 05). Pleural puncture, vascu-lar injury, pruritus or respiratory depression was not found in two groups. Conclusion Ultrasound-guided ESP block provides better analgesic efficacy after operation than paravertebral nerve block in the patients un-dergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic pulmonary lobectomy.

RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of ultrasound-guided quadratus lumborum block for analgesia after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methods Sixty American Society of Anesthesiologists physi-cal statusⅠorⅡ patients, aged 18-64 yr, with body mass index of 20-27 kg∕m2 , scheduled for elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy, were divided into 2 groups ( n=30 each) using a random number table meth-od: ultrasound-guided transversus abdominis plane block group ( group T) and ultrasound-guided quadratus lumborum block group (group Q). In T and Q groups, bilateral ultrasound-guided transversus abdominis plane block and quadratus lumborum block were performed after general anesthesia induction, respectively, with 0. 25％ ropivacaine 20 ml for each side. All the patients received patient-controlled intravenous analge-sia with morphine after surgery, and visual analoge scale scores were maintained≤3 in the two groups. The cumulative consumption of morphine was recorded at 2, 4, 6, 12, 24 and 48 h after surgery. The occur-rence of adverse reactions such as nausea, vomiting, pruritus, over-sedation and respiratory depression was observed and recorded in the analgesic period. The operation time for nerve blocks and nerve blocks-related complications such as bleeding, accidental puncture into the abdominal cavity or intestinal injuries were re-corded. Results Compared with group T, the cumulative consumption of morphine was significantly de-creased at 6, 12, 24 and 48 h after surgery in group Q ( P<0. 05) . There was no significant difference in the operation time for nerve blocks between the two groups ( P>0. 05 ) . There were no adverse reactions such as nausea, vomiting, pruritus, over-sedation and respiratory depression or nerve blocks-related compli-cations in the two groups. Conclusion Ultrasound-guided quadratus lumborum block provides better effica-cy than transversus abdominis plane block when used for analgesia after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the impact of down-regulation of histone methyltransferase enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) on RUNX3 expressions,proliferation and apoptosis in human pancreatic cancer.Methods The expressions of EZH2 and RUNX3 in 38 pancreatic cancer patients and human pancreatic cancer AsPC-1,PANC-1 and BxPC-3 cells were detected by immunohistochemistry and western blot,respectively.Cells were transfected with siEZH2 by lipofectamin 2000.Real time-PCR and western blot were used to detect EZH2 and RUNX3 expressions.Cell growth and apoptosis in vitro and vivo were assessed by MTT,flow cytometry and nude mice experiments,respectively.The correlation among the expressions of EZH2,clinical pathological features and overall survival rate were analyzed.Results Elevated EZH2 and decreased RUNX3 expressions were observed in human pancreatic cancer tissues and cells (P ＜ 0.05).Knockdown of EZH2 reduced cell growth and induced apoptosis in vitro and vivo by upregulating RUNX3 protein expression (P ＜ 0.05).In addition,the EZH2 expressions were correlated with tumor stage,lymph node metastasis and poor prognosis (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions EZH2 expressions were correlated with malignancy and poor prognosis in pancreatic cancer.Tumor cell proliferation was promoted by EZH2 through down-regulation of RUNX3.EZH2 may be a potential therapeutic target for pancreatic cancer.
RESUMO
Objective: To compare the effects of thoracotomy and total thoracoscopic surgery on coronary artery fistulae complicated with ectasia
Methods: Forty-six patients with coronary artery fistulae complicated with ectasia were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group [n=23] which were given totally thoracoscopic surgery and thoracotomy respectively. Both groups were followed up
Results: All patients survived the surgeries and were discharged from the hospital. The treatment group had significantly less intraoperative blood loss, earlier postoperative ambulation and shorter postoperative hospitalization stay more than those of the control group [P<0.05]. The two groups had similar plasm cortisol and adrenocorticotropic hormone levels one day before and after surgery. These levels peaked on the postoperative 3rd day, but those of the treatment group were significantly lower [P<0.05]. The two groups had similar left and right atrial diameters as well as left ventricular ejection fractions [LVEFs] before surgery, but the treatment group had significantly higher postoperative LVEF [P<0.05] as well as significantly smaller left and right atrial diameters in the postoperative 1[st] and 3rd months [P<0.05]. The treatment group was significantly less prone to postoperative complications such as chest pain, atelectasis and pulmonary infection than the control group [P<0.05]
Conclusion: Total thoracoscopic surgery promoted the recovery of coronary artery fistulae complicated with ectasia, improved cardiac remodeling and cardiac function, and alleviated stress reaction, with wellproved safety
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the effect of dexmedetomidine on cognitive dysfunction after thoracic surgery in patients undergoing one-lung ventilation.Methods Sixty-two patients,aged 45-64 yr,of ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,with body mass index ranged from 17.5 to 25.5 kg/m2,scheduled for elective thoracic surgery,were randomly allocated into 2 groups (n =31 each) using a random number table:dexmedetomidine group (Dex group) and control group (C group).Dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg/kg was infused for 10 min starting from the time point before induction of anesthesia,followed by continuous infusion at a rate of 0.5 μg · kg-1 · h-1 until 30 min before the end of surgery in Dex group.The equal volume of normal saline was administered instead in group C.Before induction and at 24,48 and 72 h after surgery,venous blood samples were collected for determination of levels of S-100 beta protein and neuronspecific enolase in serum by ELISA.Cognitive function was assessed by Mini-Mental State Examination at 72 h after surgery.Results The levels of S-100 beta protein and neuron-specific enolase in serum were significantly increased after surgery than before induction in the two groups.Compared to C group,the levels of S-100 beta protein and neuron-specific enolase in serum were significantly decreased after surgery,and the incidence of postoperative cognitive dysfunction was decreased in Dex group (26％ vs 6％).Conclusion Dexmedetomidine can effectively reduce the nerve damage during one-lung ventilation and significantly inhibit the development of postoperative cognitive dysfunction in patients undergoing thoracic surgery,indicating that dexmedetomidine is suitable for thoracic surgery.

Objective To explore the constituent ratio and clinical characteristics of multifocal thyroid papillary carcinoma (MPTC).Methods The clinical data of 1616 cases of papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC) were retrospectively analyzed from January 2002 to December 2011 of the First Affiliate Hospital of Dalian Medical University,which operated at the first time and confirmed by pathology.The change of constituent ratio of MPTC in PTC was analyzed and the differences of the clinical characteristics of the multifocal group and single focal group were analyzed.Results The constituent ratio of MPTC in PTC was increasing from 8.33％ (4/48) in 2002 to 30.38％ (96/316) in 2011 gradually.Compared to the single focal group,MPTC group had higher rate of neck lymph node metastasis(45.09％ vs 25.02％ ; P =0.000) and extrathyroidal invasion (20.95％ vs 9.04％ ;P =0.000).Compared with pure microcarcinoma,none pure microcarcinoma had higher rate of neck lymph node metastasis (P =0.000).More than two focuses has higher rate of neck lymph node metastasis than two focuses (P =0.000).The rate of recurrence with lymph node metastasis was higher than that without lymph node metastasis (24.05％ vs 8.98％ ;P =0.000) conformed by postoperative pathology.Conclusions The number and constituent ratio of MPTC in PTC is increasing gradually.MPTC group has high proportion of lymph node metastasis and extrathyroidal invasion than single focal group.None pure microcarcinoma has higher rate of neck lymph node metastasis than pure microcarcinoma;more than two focuses has higher rate of neck lymph node metastasis than two focuses.The recurrence rate is correlated with the rate of lymph node metastasis.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the effects of CYP3A4* 1G genetic polymorphism on fentanyl pharmadynamics after intravenous injection in healthy female velunteers,Methods Twenty-eight healthy female volunteers aged 18-25 yr weighing 45-70 kg were enrolled in this study.The CYP3A4 * 1G genetic polymorphic sites were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP).The volunteers were assigned into 3 groups according to their genotypes:group Ⅰ wild homozygote ; group Ⅱ mutation heterozygote and group Ⅲ mutation homozygote.Fentanyl 5 μg/kg was injected iv over 1 min.Pain threshold was measured using electrical stimulation before and at 45,150 and 240 min after fentanyl injection.Results Pain threshold was significantly higher at 45 and 150 min after iv fentanyl injection in mutation homozygote group than in mutation heterozygote group and wild homozygote group.There was no significant difference in pain threshold between mutation heterozygote group and wild homozygote group.Conclusion CYP3A4* 1G genetic mutation can enhance the analgesic efficacy of fentanyl after intravenous injection in healthy female volunteers.
RESUMO
Objective To determine the expression of peroxisome proliferators-activated receptors (PPARs), nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) and activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in rats with obstructive jaundice induced by bile duct ligation (BDL) and elucidate the molecular regulation mechanisms of hepatic injury due to obstructive jaundi(c)e. Methods All rats were sacrificed on the 7th day and 19th day after BDL and blood and liver tissue samples were obtained. SOD enzyme activity was detected by SOD kit. RT-PCR was performed to determine the mRNA expression of PPARs in all groups. The detection of PPARs protein and activation of NF-κB were performed using an immunohistochemical method. Results The activities of normal SOD and CuZn-SOD were decreased compared to the sham group (P＜0.01), and the decrease on 19th day after BDL were more significant. The level of PPARs expression in the BDL groups liver except the PPARβ in the BDL 7th group was reduced compared to the sham group (P＜0.01), and the level on the 19th day after BDL were more significantly reduced. PPARs protein expression was significantly inhibited (P＜0.01) in the sham group. SOD in BDL groups had significant positive correlation as compared with PPARs protein expression (P＜0.01), but NF-κBp65 protein expression had significant negative correlation as compared with PPARs protein expression (P＜0. 01). Conclusion PPARs are inhibited in expression level, and this inhibition becomes more significant as the pathological process progresses. PPARs might be key regulatory factors for SOD and NF-κB. The low expression of PPARs might be one of the important molecular mechanisms in liver injury due to obstructive jaundice.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the hepatic pathological damage after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) in rats with integrated backscatter (IBS). Methods Thirty-two SD rats and 40 Wistar rats were included, and stable OLT models were established except 8 Wistar rats as blank group. The rat models were randomly divided into 4 groups (each n=8):normal group (given no treatment), CsA-treated group (30 mg/[kg·d]), SIN-treated group (40 mg/[kg·d]), SIN and CsA-treated group (SIN 40 mg/[kg·d]+CsA 15 mg/[kg·d]). Hepatic IBS (peak to peak intensity:PPI; average image intensity:AII; standard deviation of image intensity:SDI) was measured on 4th and 10th day after OLT. The rats were sacrificed and a part of liver was cut off for pathological examination. Result Four days later, AII of control and SIN groups were higher than those in other groups (P<0.05), and of CsA-treated and SIN+CsA-treated groups were higher than that of blank group (P＜0.05), while no difference of PPI and SDI was detected between each two groups. Ten days later, AII in CsA-treated, SIN+CsA-treated and SIN-treated groups were lower than that of control group (P＜0.05), no difference of PPI and SDI was detected between each two groups. IBS was positively correlated with liver pathological damage (r=0.814, P＜0.01). Conclusion Detecting hepatic IBS contributes to the diagnosis of the level of liver damage after OLT.
