Drug-induced dysphagia risk in elder people——A pharmacovigilance study of FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database / 中国临床药理学与治疗学

AIM: To evaluate the risk of drug-related dysphagia in elder people based on the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). METHODS: We collected the reports of dysphagia in elder people (Age≥65) from 2004 quarter 1 through 2022 quarter 2 of FAERS by Open Vigil 2.1 database. The reported odds ratio (ROR) and the proportional reported ratio (PRR) were calculated to detect the adverse reaction signal of drug-induced dysphagia in elder people. Signal generation standard of ROR: number of reports≥3 with the lower limit of 95% confidence interval (CI) of the ROR value>1, PRR≥2 and c

Six versus twelve months of dual antiplatelet therapy after implantation of biodegradable polymer sirolimus-eluting stent in elderly patients / 中国介入心脏病学杂志

Objective To explore the eff cacy and safety of 6-month and 12-month dual antiplatelet therapy(DAPT)after implantation of biodegradable polymer-drug eluting stents(BP-DES) in elderly patients. Methods This study was a subgroup analysis of the I-LOVE-IT 2 trial, which was a prospectively randomized study enrolling 2737 patients receiving either a BP-SES or a DP-SES in a 2:1 ratio. This studied further divided the patients who were randomized to the BP-SES group,whose age ≥ 65 year old, in a 1:1 ratio to receive a 6-month DAPT (n=319) or 12-month DAPT (n=308)randomly before the index PCI. The primary end point of this study was 12-month target lesion failure (FhF, including cardiac death,target vessel myocardial infarction and clinically indicated target lesion revascularization)and the secondary end points was 12-month net adverse clinical and cerebral events (including all-cause death, all myocardial infarction, stroke and all bleeding). Results Rates of TLF at 12 months were 7.1% in the 6-month DAPT group and 7.2% in the 12-month DAPT group (P=0.980). No diff erences were observed in the occurrence of events in the secondary endpoint at 12 months follow-up between the 6-month DAPT group and 12-months DAPT group(14.1% versus 13.0%, P=0.726). There were no signifi cant diff erences in stent thrombosis or bleeding complications between the 2 groups. Conclusions This study shorted that 6-month DAPT did not increase the risk of TLF at 12 months after implantation of DES in elderly patients compared with 12-month DAPT. Elderly patients are at high risk of bleeding and ischemic events and study show that 6-month DAPT would be adequate. These results need to be confi rmed with trials of scale in the future.

Influence of dexmedetomidine on postoperative cognitive function in elder patients after hip replacement surgery under spinal anesthesia / 局解手术学杂志

Objective To investigate influence of dexmedetomidine on postoperative cognitive function in elder patients after hip re-placement surgery under spinal anesthesia. Methods Forty elderly patients with ASAⅠ~Ⅲ,undergoing hip replacement with spinal anesth-sia,were randomly divided into dexmedetomidine group( group A) and normal saline group( group B) ,with 20 patients in each group. Dexme-detomidine was given with 1 μg/kg after anesthesia and followed with 0. 5 μg·kg-1 ·h-1 in group A. The equal volume of normal saline was infused in group B. Cognitive function was evaluated before anesthesia,3 and 7 days after surgery by mini-mental state examination( MMSE) . The intraoperative concentration of TNF-α,IL-6,MDA were detected at the time of before surgery(T0),end of surgery(T1),3 days after sur-gery(T2),7 days after suegery. Results There was no significant difference in MMSE score before anesthesia between the two groups (P>0. 05). The difference of MMSE score at postoperative 3 days between two groups was statistical significance (P0. 05). Compared with T0,the concentration of TNF-α,IL-6,MDA at T1,T2 in group B increased,the difference was significant. And the concentration of IL-6 at T1 in group A decreased,compared with that at T0,the difference was significant(P<0. 05). The concentra-tion of TNF-α,IL-6 at T1,T2 and MDA at T2 in group A were lower than those in group B,the difference was significant. (P<0. 05). Con-clusion Dexmedetomidine can decreased the concentration of TNF-α,IL-6,MDA,and improve the postoperative cognitive dysfunction of eld-erly patients who finished the hip replacement surgery under spinal anesthesia.

Anesthesia on elder patients in hip joint replacement / 中国康复理论与实践

@#ObjectiveTo evaluate the two common anesthesia techniques used in the hip joint replacement surgery (HJRS) and provide references to the most reasonable choice for them. MethodsTo undertake a retrospective study on 34 patients that received continuous epidural anesthesia(CEA) or combined intravenous and inhaled anesthesia(CIIA)respectively in HJRS. Results and Conclusions CEA had higher incidence of bone cement reaction than that of CIIA, whereas there was no significant difference in blood loss and the anesthesia efficacy between them. CIIA seemed to be easier to be performed. CIIA sounds more reasonable than CEA in HJRS although both of them are safe anesthesia techniques.
