Objective To observe the safety and effectiveness of ultrasound-guided femoral nerve combined with femoral artery block to reduce tourniquet reaction in patients undergoing knee arthroplasty.Methods 100 patients(18~75 years old,body mass index 18~30 kg/m2)who were classified as grade Ⅰ-Ⅲ according to ASA standard and received unilateral total knee arthroplasty.The patients were randomly divided into two groups,the ultrasound-guided femoral nerve combined with femoral artery block with general anesthesia was utilized in group NA with 50 cases,and femoral nerve block alone with general anesthesia was used in group N with 50 cases.The target nerve block was guided by ultrasound before induction of anesthesia in both two groups,and anesthesia induction was performed after the block effect was etermined.Patients in two groups underwent surgery under general anesthesia of the laryngeal mask,and all patients under went self-controlled intravenous analgesia(PCIA).If a patient had a visual analogue score(VAS)score>5 after surgery,flurbiprofenate 50 mg will be given intravenously as a remedy for anal-gesia.The patients'SBP,DBP and HR were recorded before anesthesia(T1),1 min before tourniquet inflation(T2),15 min after tourniquet inflation(T3),30 min(T4),45 min(T5),and 60 min(T6),the number of cases of tourniquet hypertension occurring in patients intraoperatively and the amount of nicardipine and esmolol were recorded,and the movement and static VAS scores at 2,6,12,and 24 h after surgery were recorded.the postoperative rescue analgesic requirements and the time of getting out of bed were recorded.The incidence of adverse reactions such as nausea,vomiting,deliriumand infection were also recorded.Results Compared with group N,SBP,DBP and HR were significantly lower in group NA at 45 and 60 min after tourniquet inflation,and the incidence of tourniquet hypertension and the amount of nicardipine and esmolol were also significantly lower(P<0.05),and the time of getting out of bed was advanced(P<0.05);the movement and static VAS scores,the time of the first remedial analgesia,and number of times of remedial analgesia,as well as the occurrence of nausea,vomiting,delirium and infection were not statistically significant.Conclusion Ultrasound-guided femoral nerve combined with femoral artery block can be safely and effectively used to reduce the reaction of tourniquet in patients with knee arthroplasty,and can shorten the time of getting out of bed after surgery,contributing to promoting postoperative rehabilitation.
Résumé
Sepsis-induced liver injury (SILI) is an important cause of septicemia deaths. BaWeiBaiDuSan (BWBDS) was extracted from a formula of Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer, Lilium brownie F. E. Brown ex Miellez var. viridulum Baker, Polygonatum sibiricum Delar. ex Redoute, Lonicera japonica Thunb., Hippophae rhamnoides Linn., Amygdalus Communis Vas, Platycodon grandiflorus (Jacq.) A. DC., and Cortex Phelloderdri. Herein, we investigated whether the BWBDS treatment could reverse SILI by the mechanism of modulating gut microbiota. BWBDS protected mice against SILI, which was associated with promoting macrophage anti-inflammatory activity and enhancing intestinal integrity. BWBDS selectively promoted the growth of Lactobacillus johnsonii (L. johnsonii) in cecal ligation and puncture treated mice. Fecal microbiota transplantation treatment indicated that gut bacteria correlated with sepsis and was required for BWBDS anti-sepsis effects. Notably, L. johnsonii significantly reduced SILI by promoting macrophage anti-inflammatory activity, increasing interleukin-10+ M2 macrophage production and enhancing intestinal integrity. Furthermore, heat inactivation L. johnsonii (HI-L. johnsonii) treatment promoted macrophage anti-inflammatory activity and alleviated SILI. Our findings revealed BWBDS and gut microbiota L. johnsonii as novel prebiotic and probiotic that may be used to treat SILI. The potential underlying mechanism was at least in part, via L. johnsonii-dependent immune regulation and interleukin-10+ M2 macrophage production.

Objective:To investigate the diagnostic value of multimodal transvaginal contrast-enhanced ultrasound combined with fallopian tubal patency.Methods:From November 2017 to November 2019, 212 patients with infertility were treated in the outpatient clinic of the Union Hospital of Fujian Medical University. Multimodal contrast-enhanced ultrasonography was used to analyze the diagnostic efficiency differences of four-dimensional transvaginal contrast-enhanced hysterosalpinx (TVS 4D-HyCoSy, 4D), three-dimensional contrast-enhanced hysterosalpingography (TVS 3D-HyCoSy 3D), two-dimensional contrast-enhanced hysterosalpingography (TVS 2D-HyCoSy 2D), and transvaginal harmonic imaging (TVS harmonic imaging, HI) individually and in different combinations. The diagnostic efficiency of tubal patency was compared between the high seniority group and the low seniority group.Results:Two patients gave up the examination because of pain. A total of 420 salpingography in 210 patients were successful, of which 375 were unobstructed and 45 were blocked (13 on the right, 18 on the left, and 7 on both sides). In high seniority group and low seniority group, the diagnostic efficiencies of different mode combinations on fallopian tubal patency were significantly different ( P<0.01). There were significant differences( P<0.05) between 4D+ 3D+ 2D+ HI group and 4D+ 3D+ 2D group, 4D+ 3D+ 2D group and 4D+ 3D group, 4D+ 3D group and 4D group. There was no significant difference ( P>0.05) in the diagnostic efficiency of fallopian tubal patency between high seniority group and low seniority group. Conclusions:The diagnostic efficiency of multimodal transvaginal contrast-enhanced ultrasound combined is higher than that of single mode, and ultrasound doctors in both high and low seniority groups can effectively diagnose fallopian tubal patency, which has important clinical value in the diagnosis of fallopian tube patency.

Résumé
Objective Transesophageal Doppler monitoring ( TDM) has been widely applied to fluid therapy in some major op-erations but rarely used in aortic valve replacement.The purpose of this study was to assess the value of TDM in fluid therapy, vasoactive drugs use, and left ventricular function in patients undergoing aorta valve replacement after cardiopulmonary bypass. Methods This study included 40 patients undergoing aotic valve replacement after cardiopulmonary bypass in Anhui Provincial Hospital from March 2014 to June 2015, which were randomly assigned to a TDM and a control group of equal number.TDM was used for the guidance of fluid infu-sion and vasoactive drug administration for the patients in the former group, while central venous pressure, mean arterial pressure, and heart rate were employed for those in the latter.The fluid volume infused, urine volume, blood loss, hemodynamics, arterial blood lac-tate, and outcomes were compared between the two groups. Results Compared with the control, the TDM group showed significantly increases in the colloidal fluid volume ([303 ±60] vs [373 ±65]mL, P<0.05), crystal fluid volume ([533 ±87] vs [596 ±83]mL, P<0.05), and urine volume ([274 ±95] vs [338 ±84]mL, P<0.05), but remarkable decreases in the red blood cell count, blood plasma vol-ume, postoperative extubation time, doses of dopamine and dobu-tamine, and length of hospital stay (all P<0.05).The hemodynamics were more stable and arterial blood lactate was lower in the TDM group than in the control (P<0.05). Conclusio n Transesophageal Doppler monitoring can timely and exactly manifest the hemodynamic changes and left ventricular function of the patient undergoing aotic valve replacement and provide precise guidance for fluid therapy and vasoactive drug administration.

Objective To investigate the effects of limited resuscitation on hepatic ischernia-reperfusion in-jury in rots with hemorrhagic shock. Method Uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock was induced in 54 rats by transect-ing the middle branch of the splenic artery to produce standardized massive splenic injury. Resuscitation started when the mean arterial pressure (MAP) reached 40 mmHg. The rats were randomly divided (n = 9per group) in-to sham-operated group (SS), or one of five treatment groups in which infusion of Ringer' s solution was continually administrated to maintain MAP at 40 (RS40), 50 (RS50), 60 (RS60), 80 (RS80) or 100 mmHg (RS100) for 45 minutes (T45 point). After the bleeding was controlled, resuscitation was continued with Ringer's solution and whole blood (2:1) to increase the MAP to 100 mmHg for 120 minutes (T165 point), which was followed by obser-vation for 240 minutes (T405 point). All animals were observed for 240 minutes or until death. Blood specimens were collected at TO, T45, T165 and T405 for determination of blood lactate levels. At the end of the experiment,a small amount of hepatic tissue was collected to measure tissue blood perfusion, total antioxidative capacity (TAOC), Na+K+ ATPase activity and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels. Results At T405, the blood lactate lev-els in the RS80 and RS100 groups [(3.60±0.68) and (3.84 ± 1.09) mmol/L, respectively] were significantly higher than those in the SS, RS40, RS50 and RS60 groups [(2.00±0.66),(2.74±1.45),(2.43 +0.94) and (2.07±0.95) mmol/L, respectively;all:P < 0.05]. The MDA levels were significantly higher in the RS80 and RS100[(7.32±0.31) and (7.71±0.23) nmol/mg,respectively] than those in the SS, RS40, RS50 and RS60 groups[(4.95±0.80),(6.14±0.94),(6.42±0.48) and (6.84±0.36) nmol/mg, respeetively;all: P <0.05]. The Na+ K+ ATPase and TAOC levels were significantly lower in all of the RS groups than those in the SS group (all: P < 0.05), and those in the RS80 and RS100 groups was significantly lower than those in the RS40,RS50 and RS60 groups (all: P <0.05). Blood perfusion in the RS80 and RS100 groups was significantly lower than that in the other groups (all: P < 0.05). Conclusions If hemorrhage is uncontrolled, limited resuscitation appears to balance the needs for organ perfusion, improve the microcircttlation and decrease lactate levels. Fur-thermore, limited resuscitation could decrease ischemia-reperfusion injury in liver tissue.
