RESUMEN
Hyaluronic acid [HA] is used to aid tissue repair and is a characterized inhibitor of TRPV1 channels. In this study, we investigated the effects of HA on lidocaine induced neurotoxicity and its mechanism of action. U87-MG cells with low [U87-MG-shTRPV1] or high [U87-MG-TRPV1] TRPV1 expression were studied. The control group was treated with lidocaine. The experimental group was treated with lidocaine and HA. Flow cytometry was used to assess the intracellular calcium concentration [[Ca2+] i] and cell apoptosis. Cell viability was detected by MTT assays. Compared to the control group, [Ca2+] i of U87-MG-TRPV1 and U87-MG cells were lower at T3, T4 and T5 [p < 0.05], apoptosis rates of U87-MG and U87-MG-TRPV1 cells were lower [p<0.05], and the cell viability of U87-MG and U87MG-TRPV1 cells were higher in the experimental group [p<0.05]. HA reduces the toxic damage of lidocaine through blocking Ca2+ influx through TRPV1 channels, preventing Ca2+ overload, leading to nerve cell protection
RESUMEN
Objective To evaluate the effect of stellate ganglion block (SGB) on cellular immune function in diabetic rats.Methods Healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 3 months,weighing 240-280 g,were used in this study.Diabetes mellitus was induced by intraperitoneal 1% streptozotocin 60 mg/kg and confirmed by blood glucose ≥ 16.7 mmol/L 3 days later.Forty-eight rats with diabetes mellitus were randomly divided into 2 groups (n=24 each) using a random number table:diabetes mellitus group (group DM) and group SGB.Another 24 healthy rats,aged 3 months,were selected and served as control group (group C).At 1 week after successful establishment of the model,unilateral transection of cervical sympathetic trunk (TCST) was performed in group SGB,while the right cervical sympathetic trunk was only exposed in C and DM groups.Before TCST (T0) and on 1,3,7 days after TCST (T1-3),6 rats were randomly selected from each group,and blood samples were collected from the inferior vena cava for determination of the blood glucose,plasma norepinephrine (NE) concentrations (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay),and levels of T lymphocyte subsets CD3+,CD4+ and CD8+ in whole blood (using FACSCalibur flow cytometer).C D4+/CD8+ratio was calculated.The rats were weighed before sacrifice,and the rats were sacrificed to obtain the thymus which was weighed.The thymus index (thymus weight/body weight) was calculated.Results Compared with group C,the blood glucose was significantly increased,and the levels of CD3+ and CD4+ in whole blood,CD4+/CD8+ ratio,and thymus index were significantly decreased at T0-3 (P<0.05),and no significant change was found in CD8+ levels in DM and SGB groups (P>0.05),the plasma NE concentrations were significantly decreased at T1-3 in group SGB (P<0.05),and no significant change was found in plasma NE concentrations in group DM (P>0.05).Compared with group DM,the blood glucose and plasma NE concentrations were significantly decreased,and the levels of CD3+ and CD4+ in whole blood,CD4+/CD8+ ratio,and thymus index were significantly increased at T1-3 (P<0.05),and no significant change was found in CD8+ levels in group SGB (P>0.05).Conclusion SGB can improve the cellular immune function in diabetic rats.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of oxycodone for patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) after hip arthroplasty in elderly patients.Methods Sixty patients of both sexes,aged 65-85yr,weighing 42-89 kg,of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or]Ⅱ,scheduled for elective unilateral hip arthroplasty under general anesthesia,were divided into 2 groups (n =30 each) using a random number table:morphine group (group M) and oxycodone group (group O).Parecoxib sodium 40 mg was injected intravenously at 30 min before induction of anesthesia,followed by induction and maintenance of anesthesia.PCIA pump was connected at the beginning of skin closure.PCIA solution contained morphine 0.6 mg/kg and tropisetron 10 mg diluted to 100 ml in normal saline in group M and oxycodone 0.6 mg/kg and tropisetron 10 mg diluted to 100 ml in normal saline in group O.The PCA pump was set up with a background infusion at 2 ml/h,a 0.5 ml bolus dose and a 15 min lockout interval in both groups.Visual analogue scale score was maintained ≤ 3,and postoperative analgesia lasted until 48 h after operation.When analogue scale score ≥ 4,pethidine 50 mg/kg was injected muscularly as rescue analgesic.The requirement for rescue analgesic and occurrence of adverse effects were recorded.Results Ten percent patients required rescue analgesics in group M,and no patients required rescue analgesics in group O.Compared with group M,the requirement for rescue analgesics and incidence of nausea,vomiting and pruritus were significantly decreased in group O (P<0.05).Conclusion Oxycodone provides reliable efficacy for PCIA after hip arthroplasty in elderly patients with fewer adverse effects,indicating that oxycodone produces good analgesic efficacy for severe somatalgia.
RESUMEN
Objective To evaluate the effects of statins on the cerebral haemodynamics of ischemic stroke patients with transcranial Doppler(TCD). Methods 70 inpatients with acute ischemic stroke were divided into two groups according whether they had taken statins after stroke.The change of the cerebral haemodynamics was studied in the two groups with TCD three months after stroke. Results Three months later,the systolic flow velocities and mean flow velocities of bilateral middle cerebral arteries in the statins groups significantly increased (P<0.05). The pulse index of bilateral middle cerebral arteries in statins group significantly decreased (P<0.05).The flow velocities and pulse index of bilateral middle cerebral arteries in control group don't change significantly(P>0.05). Conclusions Statins may have the effects of improving the situation of cerebral haemodynamics of patients with ischemic stroke.
RESUMEN
With the constant development and perfection of hospital information systems, health information legislation has become a problem needing prompt solution. The authors explained the urgency and significance of health information legislation in the current practice of hospital information systems and pointed out specific manifestations of the involvement of legal basis. Their recommendations include: ①establishing and perfecting regulations on the management of local networks; ②establishing and perfecting a system of regulations on health information; ③expanding the development, accreditation and spread of techniques for guaranteeing network safety; ④doing a good job of the standard application and management of electronic medical records in the transition period.
