Résumé
Systemic application of effective antifungal drugs is the basic treatment for pulmonary mycosis,meanwhile,drug spraying under bronchoscope is one of the most important treatment options for tracheal,bronchial and pulmonary mycosis.Compared with bronchoscopic drug injection,indwelling guided drug injection cannula through nasal suspension with or without anchoring has more advantages in the treatment of pulmonary mycosis,including the ability to connect to a syringe pump for continuous and slow injection of drugs,which can avoid repeatedly performing bronchoscopy.This article describes the standard operating procedure of indwelling nasal cannula with or without anchoring for the treatment of pulmonary mycosis.
Résumé
Recognizing upper airway obstruction and stenosis is critical to determine the subsequent treatment options in patients with obstructive sleep apnea(OSA).Drug-induced sleep endoscopy(DISE)is a 3D visual evaluation technology for the anatomical structure of the upper respiratory tract of OSA patients during"sleeping"state after being anesthetized.The dynamic situation of upper respiratory tract obstruction and collapse can be observed safely and quickly through endoscopy,which provides important reference for formulating surgical methods and positive airway pressure(PAP)intervention treatments.With the assistance of polysomnography(PSG),DISE plays an important role in optimizing individualized treatment plans for OSA.The present article introduces the technical operating points of PSG-assisted drug-induced sleep endoscopic positive airway pressure titration.

Objective:To evaluate the role of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-2 (NOD2) in dorsal root ganglion in the development of neuropathic pain (NP) in rats.Methods:Thirty-two adult male SPF Sprague-Dawley rats, weighing 240-260 g, aged 2-3 months, were divided into 4 groups ( n=8 each) using a random number table method: control group (group C), NP group (group S), negative control siRAN group (group N), and NOD2-siRNA group (group R). In N and R groups, 1×10 8 IFU/ml negative control siRNA and NOD2-siRNA 10 μl were intrathecally injected, respectively, once a day for 3 consecutive days.Normal saline 10 μl was intrathecally injected once a day for 3 consecutive days in C and S groups.The model of NP was established using spared nerve injury (SNI) at 2 weeks after intrathecal injection.The mechanical paw withdrawal threshold (MWT) was measured at 1 day before surgery and 1, 3, 7, 10, 14 and 28 days after SNI.Animals were sacrificed after measuring pain threshold on day 28, and the dorsal root ganglions (DRGs) of the lumbar segment (L 4-6) were removed for determination of the expression of NOD2 (by Western blot) and expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-1beta (IL-1β), IL-6 and NOD2 mRNA (using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction). Results:Compared with group C, MWT was significantly decreased at each time point after SNI, and the expression of NOD2 protein and mRNA and TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 mRNA in DRGs was up-regulated in group NP ( P<0.01). Compared with group NP, MWT was significantly increased at each time point after SNI, and the expression of NOD2 protein and mRNA and TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 mRNA in DRGs was down-regulated in group R ( P<0.01), and no significant change was found in the parameters mentioned above in group N ( P>0.05). Conclusion:The mechanism underlying the development of NP may be related to the up-regulation of NOD2 expression in DRGs, thus further promoting the expression of pro-inflammatory factors in rats.
Résumé
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of different doses of dezocine for decreasing the minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of desflurane.Methods ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients of both sexes,aged 50-70 yr,undergoing elective lower abdominal surgery performed under general anesthesia,were divided into 4 groups:control group (group C)and different doses of dezocine groups (D1,D2 and D3 groups).Before induction of anesthesia,in D1,D2 and D3 groups,dezocine 0.050,0.075 and 0.100 mg/kg were intravenously infused,respectively,while in group C,the equal volume of normal saline was given instead of dezocine.The adverse reactions were observed.Propofol 3 mg/kg was given for induction of anesthesia 15 min later until patient' s consciousness and spontaneous respiration disappeared.Laryngeal mask airway was inserted and the patients were mechanically ventilated.Up-and-down sequential allocation was used to determine the MAC of desflurane during maintenance of anesthesia.The end-tidal concentration of desflurane was set at 8.0% and maintained at this level for at least 5 min before skin incision in the first patient.Each time the concentration of desflurane increased/decreased in the next patient depending on whether or not the body movement developed.The ratio between the two successive concentrations was 0.9.The point between the positive response and negative response served as a cross-over point.After at least 7 independent cross-over points were observed in each group,the experiment was stopped.The MAC and 95 % confidence interval of desflurane were calculated.Results No adverse reactions developed in each group.The MAC of desflurane was significantly lower in D1-3 groups than in group C,in groups D2.3 than in group D1,and in group D3 than in group D2.Conclusion Dezocine 0.100 mg/kg injected intravenously at 15 min before induction of anesthesia provides a better efficacy for decreasing the MAC of desflurane in the patients.
