@#Objective To evaluate the correlation between positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) level and postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) in patients undergoing thoracoscopic lung surgery. Methods The clinical data of patients who underwent elective thoracoscopic lung surgery at West China Hospital of Sichuan University from January 2022 to June 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to intraoperative PEEP levels: a PEEP 5 cm H2O group and a PEEP 10 cm H2O group. The incidence of PPCs in the two groups after matching was compared using a nearest neighbor matching method with a ratio of 1∶1, setting the clamp value as 0.02. Results A total of 538 patients were screened, and after propensity score-matching, a total of 229 pairs (458 patients) were matched, with an average age of 53.9 years and 69.4% (318/458) females. A total of 118 (25.8%) patients had PPCs during hospitalization after surgery, including 60 (26.2%) patients in the PEEP 5 cm H2O group and 58 (25.3%) patients in the PEEP 10 cm H2O group, with no statistically significant difference between the two groups [OR=0.997, 95%CI (0.495, 1.926), P=0.915]. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that PEEP was not an independent risk factor for PPCs [OR=0.920, 95%CI (0.587, 1.441), P=0.715]. Conclusion For patients undergoing thoracoscopic lung surgery, intraoperative PEEP (5 cm H2O or 10 cm H2O) is not associated with the risk of PPCs during hospitalization after surgery, which needs to be further verified by prospective, large-sample randomized controlled studies.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between the timing of pulmonary surgery and postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) after severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection.Methods:Sixty-eight American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰor Ⅱ patients of either sex, with body mass index of 18-30 kg/m 2, who were first infected with SARS-CoV-2 after December 2022, undergoing elective thoracoscopic partial pneumonectomy from January to May 2023, were included in this prospective cohort study. The patients were divided into 2 groups ( n=34 each) according to the time between the date of surgery and SARS-CoV-2 infection: 5-10 weeks group and 11-16 weeks group. The preoperative persistent symptoms and dyspnea before operation were recorded. The serum concentrations of interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay at 1 day before operation and 2 h and 1 and 2 days after operation. The white blood cell count and serum C-reactive protein concentration were measured at 1 day before operation and 1 and 2 days after operation. The occurrence of PPCs and length of postoperative hospital stay were recorded. Logistic regression was used to analyze the relationship between PPCs and timing of pulmonary surgery after SARS-CoV-2 infection. Results:Two patients in each group were excluded from the study because of conversion to thoracotomy. Thirty-two patients were finally included in each group. Compared with 5-10 weeks group, the ratio of preoperative persistent symptoms and dyspnea was significantly decreased, the serum concentrations of interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha and C-reactive protein and white blood cell count were decreased at each time point after operation, the incidence of PPCs and postoperative pulmonary infection was decreased, and the length of postoperative hospital stay was shortened in 11-16 weeks group ( P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that short time from the date of surgery to infection ( OR=1.754, 95% confidence interval[ CI] 1.509-2.038, P<0.001), preoperative persistent symptoms ( OR=2.523, 95% CI 2.047-3.110, P<0.001), preoperative dyspnea ( OR=1.875, 95% CI 1.406-2.500, P<0.001) and high white blood cell count at 1 day after surgery ( OR=0.676, 95% CI 0.651-0.701, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for PPCs. Conclusions:The risk of PPCs is lower in the patients undergoing pulmonary surgery at 11-16 weeks after SARS-CoV-2 infection than at 5-10 weeks after infection. Short time from the date of surgery to infection is an independent risk factor for PPCs.

Objective:To compare the effects of transverse abdominis plane block and incision infiltration anesthesia on the early postoperative recovery in the patients undergoing thoracoscopic lung resection with general anesthesia.Methods:Eighty American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅱ or Ⅲ patients, regardless of gender, aged 50-78 yr, with body mass index of 18-30 kg/m 2, scheduled for elective thoracoscopic lung resection under general anesthesia, were divided into 2 groups ( n=40 each) using a random number table method: incision local infiltration group (group D) and transverse abdominis plane block group (group E). In group E, the patients were changed to the lateral position after completion of anesthesia induction, ultrasound-guided transverse abdominis plane block was performed on the affected side, with 0.25% ropivacaine hydrochloride 30 ml injected. In group D, infiltration anesthesia with 0.25% ropivacaine hydrochloride was performed before incision. Postoperative patient-controlled intravenous analgesia was carried out, and flurbiprofen axetil was intravenously injected for rescue analgesia when the numerical rating scale score at rest >3 or numerical rating scale score≥6 while coughing. Quality of Recovery-15 scale scores were assessed at 1 day before surgery and 24 and 48 h after surgery. Plasma concentrations of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-1β were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay before incision, at the end of surgery, and at 24 h after surgery. The amount of remifentanil used during surgery, the number of effective pressing times of patient-controlled analgesia within 48 h after surgery, requirement for rescue analgesia, first ambulation time after surgery, time to first flatus, length of hospital stay, and occurrence of nausea and vomiting and pulmonary infection within 48 h after surgery were recorded. Results:Compared with group D, Quality of Recovery-15 scale scores were significantly increased, the amount of remifentanil used during surgery and the number of effective pressing times of patient-controlled analgesia were reduced, the rate of rescue analgesia was decreased, the time to first rescue analgesia was prolonged, and the time to first flatus was shortened in group E ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the plasma concentrations of IL-6 and IL-1β at various time points, time to first ambulation after surgery, length of hospital stay, and incidence of nausea and vomiting and pulmonary infection between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Compared with incision infiltration anesthesia, transverse abdominis plane block can reduce intraoperative consumption of opioids, alleviate postoperative pain, and promote early postoperative recovery when used for thoracoscopic lung resection under general anesthesia.

Objective:To explore the effects of phased goal directed fluid therapy (GDFT) during anesthesia surgery on tissue perfusion and cognitive function in patients undergoing radical lung cancer surgery.Methods:A total of 108 lung cancer patients were prospectively selected and randomly divided into a control group and a study group using a random number table method. The control group received classical restrictive liquid therapy, while the study group received staged GDFT. We compared the surgical time, intraoperative blood loss, colloid fluid dosage, crystalloid fluid dosage, total output, and urine volume between two groups of patients; Two groups of patients were compared in terms of oxygenation index (OI), respiratory index (RI), central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO 2), lactate (Lac), central venous arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure difference (Pcv-aCO 2), oxygen supply index (DO 2I), and oxygen uptake rate (O 2ERe) before anesthesia induction (T 0), before single lung ventilation (T 1), 1 hour of single lung ventilation (T 2), immediate resumption of dual lung ventilation (T 3), 30 minutes of dual lung ventilation (T 4), and after surgery (T 5); The Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) was used to evaluate the cognitive function scores of two groups of patients 1 day before surgery and 1 and 3 days after surgery, while recording the incidence of cognitive dysfunction (POCD) and pulmonary complications (including pulmonary infection, acute lung injury, pulmonary embolism, pulmonary edema, atelectasis, etc.) within 3 days after surgery. Results:The amount of crystal fluid and urine output in the research group was significantly lower than that in the control group, while the amount of colloidal fluid was significantly higher than that in the control group (all P<0.05). The OI of the study group T 1-T 5 was significantly higher than that of the control group, while the RI of T 2-T 5 was significantly lower than that of the control group (all P<0.05). The ScvO 2 of the study group T 1 to T 5 was significantly higher than that of the control group, and the Lac was significantly lower than that of the control group (all P<0.05); The MMSE scores of both groups of patients were significantly lower than those before surgery on day 1 and 3 after surgery, and the MMSE scores of the study group were significantly higher than those of the control group on day 1 and 3 after surgery (all P<0.05). The incidence of POCD within 3 days after surgery in the study group was 16.67%(9/54), lower than 37.04%(20/54) in the control group (χ 2=5.704, P=0.017); The incidence of pulmonary complications in the study group was lower than that in the control group (5.56% vs 22.22%, χ 2=4.955, P=0.026). Conclusions:The application of staged GDFT during anesthesia in patients undergoing radical lung cancer surgery can further improve tissue perfusion, improve microcirculation and oxygen supply-demand balance of systemic organs and tissues, including the brain, alleviate perioperative brain function damage, and reduce the occurrence of postoperative POCD compared to conventional liquid therapy.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of moderate to severe pain in patients with non-small cell lung cancer within 3 days after lobectomy.Methods:The clinical data of 297 patients with non-small cell lung cancer who underwent lobectomy in the Department of Thoracic Surgery, Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center from December 2020 to June 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. A numerical rating scale was used to score the most severe pain within 3 days after surgery. Pain score ≥ 4 was defined as moderate to severe pain. The risk factors for moderate to severe pain were analyzed by binary Logistic regression. General linear model repeated measures and linear mixed models were used to analyze the trend of risk factors influencing postoperative pain with time.Results:The incidence of moderate to severe pain was 34.2% (102/297), 59.8% (178/297), 66.4% (198/297), and 28.2% (84/297) on days 0, 1, 2, and 3 after surgery respectively. The risk for moderate to severe pain was significantly higher in patients undergoing thoracotomy than patients undergoing thoracoscopic surgery on days 1 ( OR = 1.99, P = 0.009), 2 ( OR = 3.08, P < 0.001), and 3 ( OR = 3.88, P < 0.001) after surgery. However, the risk for moderate to severe pain in patients undergoing thoracotomy was slightly, but not significantly, higher than that in patients undergoing thoracoscopic surgery ( OR = 1.53, P = 0.087). The risk for moderate to severe pain was higher in female patients than male patients on day 2 ( OR = 1.62, P = 0.077), and in particular on day 3 after surgery ( OR = 2.39, P = 0.002). Prophylactic use of parecoxib significantly reduced the risk of moderate to severe pain on day 0 ( OR = 0.32, P = 0.004), 1 ( OR = 0.20, P < 0.001), 2 ( OR = 0.36, P < 0.001) and 3 ( OR = 0.56, P = 0.047). Conclusion:The incidence of moderate to severe pain on days 1 and 2 after lobectomy was relatively high in patients with non-small cell lung cancer. Patients undergoing thoracotomy have a higher risk of moderate to severe pain than those who underwent thoracoscopic surgery. Female patients have a higher risk for moderate to severe pain on days 2 and 3 after surgery than male patients. Prophylactic use of parecoxib can decrease the risk for moderate to severe pain in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

Objective:To investigate the effects of thoracic segment epidural anesthesia on inflammatory factors in patients undergoing lung cancer surgery.Methods:The clinical data of 136 patients who underwent lung cancer surgery in the Second People's Hospital of Liaocheng from June 2020 to May 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. According to anesthesia methods, these patients were divided into an observation group ( n = 89) and a control group ( n = 47). The observation group was given thoracic segment epidural anesthesia, while the control group was given remifentanil infusion anesthesia. The tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and interleukin-10 (IL-10) levels in the epithelial lining fluid collected from the non-dependent lung, the plasma levels of TNF-α, IL-6, and malondialdehyde, arterial partial pressure of oxygen/inhaled oxygen fraction, the incidence of complications, the incidence of re-operations, numeric rating scale score, and the length of hospital stay were compared between the two groups. The effects of different anesthesia methods on lung cancer surgery were evaluated. Results:In each group, TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-10 levels in the epithelial lining fluid were significantly increased 30 minutes after termination of one-lung ventilation (T2) compared with those measured before one-lung ventilation (T1) ( t = 7.71, 77.10, 7.59, 3.41, 57.51, 5.74, all P < 0.05). In the observation group, TNF- α [(1.59 ± 0.53) ng/L, (1.89 ± 0.64) ng/L] measured at T1 and T2, IL-6 [(2.96 ± 0.82) ng/L] and IL-10 [(1.99 ± 0.53) ng/L] measured at T1 were significantly higher compared with those measured at the corresponding time points in the control group ( t = 10.45, 2.59, 2.00, 7.19, all P < 0.05). In the observation group, IL-6 measured at T2 [(38.91 ± 5.84) ng/L] was significantly lower than that in the control group ( t = 33.25, P < 0.001), and IL-10 measured at T2 [(2.51 ± 0.67) ng/L] was slightly, but not significantly higher than that in the control group ( P > 0.05). There was no significant difference in the plasma level of TNF- α measured at T1 and T2 between the two groups (both P > 0.05). Plasma levels of IL-6 in the two groups [(42.98 ± 5.29) ng/L, (27.93 ± 4.17) ng/L] measured at T2 were significantly increased compared with those measured at T1 ( t = 54.14, 61.06, both P < 0.001). In the observation group, TNF-α measured at T2 [(1.60 ± 0.56) ng/L] and IL-6 measured at T1 and T2 [(0.92 ± 0.16) ng/L, (27.93 ± 4.17) ng/L] were significantly lower compared with the control group ( t = 3.39, 6.96, 18.20, all P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in plasma level of malondialdehyde, arterial partial pressure of oxygen/inhaled oxygen fraction, numeric rating scale score, the incidence of complications, the incidence of re-operation, and the length of hospital stay between the two groups (all P > 0.05). Conclusion:Thoracic segment epidural anesthesia can reduce the local inflammatory response of the lung during lung cancer surgery.

Objective:To observe the effect of preoperative application of butorphanol tartrate on postoperative recovery quality in patients undergoing thoracoscopic lobectomy.Methods:A prospective selection was conducted on 96 lung cancer patients who underwent thoracoscopic lobectomy and were admitted to Linyi People′s Hospital from May 2021 to September 2021. They were randomly divided into observation group and control group using a random table number method, with 48 patients in each group. The observation group received intravenous injection of 0.02 mg/kg butorphanol tartrate 15 minutes before anesthesia induction; The control group was given an equal volume of physiological saline. The operation site, operation time, remifentanil dosage during operation, heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) at each time point of admission (T 0), intubation (T 1), 5 min after intubation (T 2), extubation (T 3), 5 min after extubation (T 4), and 15 min into post-anaesthesia care unit (PACU) (T 5) were recorded; The awakening Restlessness score (RS), Ramsay score, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score at T 4 and T 5, the time required from completion to extubation, and postoperative anesthesia related adverse reactions were evaluated. Results:There was no significant difference in the operation site, operation time and remifentanil dosage between the two groups (all P>0.05). Compared with T 0, the HR at T 2, T 3 and T 4, MAP at T 1, T 2, T 3 and T 4 in the two groups decreased significantly (all P<0.05). The HR of the observation group at T 1 and T 3 was significantly lower than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (all P<0.05). The VAS scores of T 4 and T 5 in the observation group were lower than those in the control group after surgery, while the Ramsay score were higher than those in the control group (all P<0.001). The incidence of postoperative restlessness, nausea and vomiting in the observation group was lower than that in the control group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Administering 0.02 mg/kg butorphanol tartrate 15 minutes before anesthesia induction can improve the quality of recovery in patients undergoing thoracoscopic lobectomy, reduce restlessness and related adverse reactions during recovery.

@#Objective To explore the relationship between preoperative fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) in type 2 diabetic patients undergoing elective thoracoscopic lung resection, and provide a reference for prediction and prevention of PPCs in the clinic. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on the type 2 diabetic patients who underwent elective thoracoscopic lung resection for the first time in our hospital from January 2017 to March 2021. According to the level of FPG one day before the operation, the patients were divided into three groups: a hypoglycemia group (<6.1 mmol/L), a medium level blood glucose group (≥6.1 mmol/L and <8.0 mmol/L) and a high blood glucose group (≥8.0 mmol/L). Besides, the patients were divided into a PPCs group and a non-PPCs group according to whether PPCs occurred. The risk factors for PPCs were analyzed by logistic regression analysis, and the predictive value of preoperative FPG level on PPCs was estimated by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Results A total of 130 patients were included, including 75 (57.7%) males and 55 (42.3%) females with an average age of 63.5±9.0 years. Logistic regression analysis showed that compared to non-PPCs patients, the level of preoperative FPG (P=0.023) and smoking history ratio (P=0.036) were higher and the operation time was longer (P=0.004) in the PPCs patients. High FPG level on preoperative day 1 and longer operation time were associated with PPCs risk. Besides, the preoperative FPG of 6.79 mmol/L was the threshold value to predict the occurrence of PPCs [AUC=0.653, 95%CI (0.559, 0.747), P=0.003]. Conclusion There is a certain correlation between preoperative FPG level and postoperative PPCs, which may be used as an index to predict the occurrence of PPCs.

Abstract Objective: Identify the one-year survival rate and major complications in patients submitted to pneumonectomy for infectious disease. Methods: Retrospective data from all cases of infectious disease pneumonectomy over the past 10 years were collected from two reference centers. The authors analyzed: patient demographics, etiology, laterality, bronchial stump treatment, presence of previous pulmonary resection, postoperative complications in the first 30 days, the treatment used in pleural complications, and one-year survival rate. Results: 56 procedures were performed. The average age was 44 years, with female predominance (55%). 29 cases were operated on the left side (51%) and the most frequent etiology was post-tuberculosis (51.8%). The overall incidence of complications was 28.6% and the most common was empyema (19.2%). Among empyema cases, 36.3% required pleurostomy, 27.3% required pleuroscopy and 36.3% underwent thoracoplasty for treatment. Bronchial stump fistula was observed in 10.7% of cases. From all cases, 16.1% were completion pneumonectomies and 62.5% of these had some complication, a significantly higher incidence than patients without previous surgery (p = 0.0187). 30-day in-hospital mortality was (7.1%) with 52 cases (92.9%) and 1-year survival. The causes of death were massive postoperative bleeding (1 case) and sepsis (3 cases). Conclusions: Pneumonectomy for benign disease is a high-risk procedure performed for a variety of indications. While morbidity is often significant, once the perioperative risk has passed, the one-year survival rate can be very satisfying in selected patients with benign disease.

Objective:To evaluate the relationship between preoperative pain threshold and chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) in the patients undergoing thoracoscopic pneumonectomy.Methods:One hundred patients of both sexes, aged 18-75 yr, with body mass index of 18-35 kg/m 2, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ or Ⅱ, scheduled for thoracoscopic pneumonectomy at West China Hospital of Sichuan University from December 2019 to February 2020, were selected. The pain threshold was measured using Pain Vision at 1 day before surgery. Telephone follow-up was implemented by a pain questionnaire to assess CPSP (numerical rating scale score ≥1) at 3 months after surgery. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify the risk factors for CPSP, and the receiver operating characteristic curve was used to evaluate the accuracy of preoperative pain threshold in predicting CPSP. Results:Ninety-four patients were finally enrolled, of which 38 cases (40%) developed CPSP. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that low preoperative pain threshold was an independent risk factor for CPSP ( OR=0.899, 95% confidence interval 0.854-0.946, P<0.001). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.882 (95% confidence interval 0.804-0.960), Youden Index was 0.673, the sensitivity was 0.816, and the specificity was 0.857. Conclusions:Low preoperative pain threshold is an independent risk factor for CPSP, and preoperative pain threshold can predict the occurrence of CPSP in the patients undergoing thoracoscopic pneumonectomy.

Objective:The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical value of CT-guided localization of pulmonary nodules with soft wire hook-wire by trailing technique.Methods:The clinical data of 211 pulmonary nodules of 185 patients from November 2020 to March 2022 in Beijing Aerospace General Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. The pulmonary nodules were localized with soft wire hook-wire by trailing technique before video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS). The success rate, complications, pathological results and localization operations related data were statistically analyzed.Results:The success rate of localization was 97.63% (206/211), and the success rate of VATS removal was 99.53% (210/211). The average operation time was (7.19 ± 2.62) min, and the average time required for resection of lesions was 27 min (10 to 126 min). During the surgery, the soft wire hook-wire of two patient was found to be dislocated and retracted into the chest wall. The pulmonary nodules were successfully located and removed according traces left by puncture points on the lung surface. It was found that the hook-wire was located in the interlobar fissure in 3 patients. The pulmonary nodules were successfully removed by the hook-wire position and appropriately expanding the resection range. A minor pneumothorax occurred in 49 patients, but no closed drainage was needed; 12 patients developed intrapulmonary hematoma; 15 patients with chest pain were treated with analgesia.Conclusions:For small pulmonary nodules requiring thoracoscopic surgery, the computed tomography-guided pulmonary nodule localization with soft wire hook-wire by trailing technique is more convenient, safe and effective, and is worthy of promotion to use.

With the increase of the detection rate of ground glass nodules in the lung, a large number of early lung cancers have been found, and thoracoscopic pulmonary segementectomy has been widely used in clinical practice. The identification of intersegmental interface is one of the key steps in thoracoscopic pulmonary segementectomy. In clinical practice, various methods are used to identify inter segment interfaces by natural anatomy of the lung segment, the direction of blood vessel routing, and using some methods to cause differential changes between the target segment and surrounding lung tissue. Currently, the commonly used identification methods have their own advantages and disadvantages. This paper will review the relevant methods currently used in the clinic, hoping to help the clinical practice.

The occurrence of arrhythmia was calculated, and the clinical data of patients with arrhythmia and those without arrhythmia were compared. Logistic regression was employeed to analyze the independent influencing factors of arrhythmia in elderly patients with early lung cancer after thoracoscopic pneumonectomy. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic performance of regression model on arrhythmia after thoracoscopic pneumonectomy in elderly patients with early lung cancer.Results:Forty-one of 220 (18.64%) elderly patients with early lung cancer treated by thoracoscopic pneumonectomy had arrhythmia. There were statistically significant differences between patients with arrhythmia and patients without arrhythmia in age ( χ2=17.76, P<0.001), combined with essential hypertension ( χ2=21.06, P<0.001), forced expiratory volume in one second as a percentage of predicted value (FEV 1%) ( χ2=17.88, P<0.001), left atrium anterior-and-posterior diameter ( χ2=37.82, P<0.001), operation type ( χ2=27.09, P<0.001) and postoperative constipation ( χ2=18.25, P<0.001). The results of multivariate analysis showed that age>75 years old ( OR=22.17, 95% CI: 3.78-130.11, P=0.001), combined with essential hypertension ( OR=26.55, 95% CI: 3.99-176.95, P=0.001), FEV 1%≤70% ( OR=6.20, 95% CI: 1.37-28.11, P=0.018), left atrium anterior-and-posterior diameter>40 mm ( OR=10.84, 95% CI: 2.24-52.45, P=0.003), thoracoscopic lobectomy ( OR=7.07, 95% CI: 1.62-30.80, P=0.009), and postoperative constipation ( OR=79.97, 95% CI: 11.87-538.83, P<0.001) were all independent risk factors for arrhythmia after thoracoscopic pulmonary resection in elderly patients with early lung cancer. A prediction model was established for statistically significant indicators in multivariate analysis, ln ( P/1- P) =-7.89+3.10×age+3.28×combined with essential hypertension+1.82×FEV 1%+2.38×left atrium anterior-and-posterior diameter+1.96×operation type+4.38×postoperative constipation ( P was the prediction probability of P value in regression model). ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of predict arrhythmia after thoracoscopic pulmonary resection in elderly patients with early lung cancer were 0.64, 0.71, 0.68, 0.74, 0.76, 0.87 and 0.98, respectively. The Yoden index was 27.29%, 42.28%, 34.92%, 47.42%, 73.63%, 50.97% and 91.97%, respectively. Conclusion:Age>75 years old, combined with essential hypertension, FEV 1%≤70%, left atrium anterior-and-posterior diameter>40 mm, thoracoscopic lobectomy and postoperative constipation are all independent risk factors for arrhythmia after thoracoscopic pulmonary resection in elderly patients with early lung cancer. Nomogram model based on the above risk factors has high efficacy in predicting arrhythmia occurance after thoracoscopic pulmonary resection.

Objective:To investigate the effect of penehyclidine hydrochloride on respiratory mechanics, arterial blood gas, and inflammatory factors in patients undergoing one-lung ventilation during thoracoscopic lobectomy.Methods:A total of 100 patients who underwent thoracoscopic lobectomy with one-lung ventilation at Jinhua Central Hospital from January to November 2022 were included in this randomized controlled study. They were divided into groups A and B ( n = 50 per group) using a random digital number table. Patients in group A received an intravenous infusion of 0.02 mg/kg of pentylenethyclidine hydrochloride 30 minutes before surgery, while patients in group B received an equal amount of 0.9% sodium chloride injection 30 minutes before surgery. Clinical indicators, respiratory mechanical indicators (peak airway pressure, lung compliance), arterial blood gas analysis indicators (blood oxygen saturation, arterial pressure of oxygen, oxygenation index), inflammatory factor levels (interleukin-6, interleukin-8, tumor necrosis factor level-α), and pulmonary complications were compared between the two groups. Results:There were no significant differences in mechanical ventilation time or total infusion volume between the two groups (both P > 0.05). At the end of surgery (T1) and 1 day after surgery (T2), peak airway pressure in group A was (17.43 ± 2.69) cm H 2O and (16.81 ± 2.28) cm H 2O (1 cm H 2O = 0.098 kPa), respectively, which were significantly lower than (19.23 ± 3.40) cm H 2O and (18.29 ± 2.06) cm H 2O in group B, respectively ( t = 2.94, 3.41, P = 0.002, < 0.001). At T1 and T2, lung compliance in group A was (34.67 ± 2.93) cm H 2O and (36.26 ± 3.11) cm H 2O, respectively, which were significantly higher than (32.23 ± 2.85) cm H 2O and (33.84 ± 2.87) cm H 2O in group B, respectively ( t = 4.22, 4.04, P = 0.000, < 0.001). At T1 and T2, blood oxygen saturation, arterial partial pressure of oxygen, and oxygenation index in group A were significantly higher than those in group B ( t = 8.12, 3.07, 10.47, 3.16, 3.81, 4.15, all P < 0.05). At T1 and T2, interleukin-6, interleukin-8, and tumor necrosis factor-α levels in group A were significantly lower than those in group B ( t = 11.67, 13.55, 9.60, 15.71, 6.13, 11.50, all P < 0.001). The incidence of complications in group A was 4% (2/50), which was significantly lower than 16% (8/50) in group B ( χ2 = 4.00, P < 0.05). Conclusion:Penehyclidine hydrochloride has a good effect on respiratory mechanics, arterial blood gas, and inflammatory factors in patients undergoing thoracoscopic lobectomy with one-lung ventilation and thereby deserves clinical promotion.

Objective:To investigate the effect of phloroglucinol combined with sufentanil on catheter-related bladder discomfort (CRBD) during anesthesia recovery in patients undergoing lobectomy for lung cancer under general anesthesia.Methods:A total of 95 lung cancer patients from the Cangzhou Central Hospital from May 2020 to June 2022 were selected as the study subjects and randomly divided into a control group (47 cases) and an observation group (48 cases) using a random number table method. The control group received intravenous injection of sufentanil approximately 15 minutes before the end of the surgery, while the observation group received intravenous injection of phloroglucinol combined with sufentanil. The recovery progress, lung function, relevant serum indicators, and occurrence of CRBD within 4 hours after surgery were compared between the two groups.Results:The observation group had shorter eye opening, free breathing, and extubation times than the control group (all P<0.05). Compared with before surgery, there were significant fluctuations in forced vital capacity (FVC), oxygenation index (OI), and partial oxygen pressure (PaO 2) during anesthesia resuscitation and 1 day after surgery in both groups (all P<0.05); The fluctuation amplitude of FVC, OI, and PaO 2 during anesthesia resuscitation and 1 day after surgery in the observation group was significantly smaller than that in the control group (all P<0.05). Compared with before surgery, hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) increased and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) decreased in both groups on the first day after surgery (all P<0.05); The HIF-1α of the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group on the first day after surgery, and the BDNF was significantly higher than that of the control group (all P<0.05). The comparison of the incidence of CRBD between the two groups at 4 hours after surgery showed that the observation group [12.50%(6/48)] was lower than the control group [31.91%(15/47)] (χ 2=4.286, P<0.05). Conclusions:The combination of phloroglucinol and sufentanil in general anesthesia patients undergoing lobectomy for lung cancer can reduce the occurrence of CRBD during anesthesia recovery, reduce the impact on lung function and serum HIF-1α and BDNF levels, and facilitate patient recovery.

Background: Lung cancer invading left atrium is accepted as T4 tumor and surgical treatment in this situation is controversial. The aim of our study was to determine the prognostic factors of patients with surgically treated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) invading left atrium. Methods: After the approval of local ethics committee, the study was conducted in Gazi University, Department of Thoracic Surgery (Ankara-Turkey). The records of the patients were obtained from the encrypted hospital management software. Sequential codes were given to the data of patients and it was transferred to the statistics program without their names and ID numbers. The data of patients were collected as follows: those who had extended pneumonectomy from the surgery reports were found, then their pathology reports were examined, and those who had atrial muscle tissue were included in the study. Selected cases included as follows: patients who were medically suitable for surgery, patients who could tolerate surgery in cardiology evaluation, patients who had adequate lung capacity for pneumonectomy. Data of patients were analyzed according to age, gender, lymph node invasion, complete resection, and operative mortality. Results: A total of 18 patients were included in the study. There were 16 (88.8%) men and 2 (12.2%) women. The mean age was 60.8 (range: 44 -76; Standard deviation: ± 1.8) years. Cardiopulmonary bypass was used in only one patient. The 30-day mortality was 5.5%. 1, 3, and 5-years overall survivals were 77%, 18.6%, and 9.3%, respectively. Mediastinal lymph node metastasis in N1 and N2 stations was detected 10 and 2, respectively. There was statistically significant correlation between recurrence and lymph node invasion status including N1 and N2 station (P = 0.04). Conclusion: Although surgery is controversial in patients with NSCLC invading left atrium, it can be performed in selected cases. Morbidity and morta
