RESUMO
ObjectiveTo explore the correlation between dryness and energy metabolism of Atractylodis Rhizoma, and to analyze the difference of medicinal properties between Atractylodes lancea and A. chinensis. MethodA total of 110 healthy SD rats were randomly divided into 11 groups, including normal group, volatile oil of A. lancea 1-5 group (S1-S5 group, doses of 447, 473, 442, 489, 496 mg·kg-1) and volatile oil of A. chinensis 1-5 group (N1-N5 group, doses of 197, 118, 281, 222, 185 mg·kg-1), the administration volume was 0.01 mL·g-1 with intragastric administration for 21 days. Dryness effect of A. lancea and A. chinensis on rats was evaluated by comparing the body weight, drinking water volume, urine volume, whole blood viscosity and pathological sections of submandibular gland stained with hematoxylin-eosin (HE). The expression of aquaporin 2 (AQP2) in rat kidney was measured by immunohistochemistry, the mRNA expressions of cytochrome C oxidase subunit 7A2 (COX7A2) and succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) complex subunit D (SDHD) in liver tissue were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR). The contents of SDH, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and sodium ion-potassium ion-adenosine triphosphatase (Na+-K+-ATPase) in rat plasma were determined by colorimetry. The quality of A. lancea and A. chinensis was evaluated by coefficient of variation method, and Pearson correlation coefficient was used to analyze the correlation between dryness and energy metabolism. ResultCompared with the normal group, the amounts of drinking water and urine in volatile oil of A. lancea group and volatile oil of A. chinensis group increased, and the submandibular gland acini atrophied, the whole blood viscosity of rats in the volatile oil of A. lancea group increased significantly (P<0.01), the expression levels of COX7A2 and SDHD mRNA, the activities of SDH, LDH and Na+-K+-ATPase increased significantly (P<0.01), and the expression of AQP2 in kidney decreased significantly (P<0.01). Compared with the normal group, the expression level of COX7A2 mRNA, SDH activity and whole blood viscosity in the volatile oil of A. chinensis group increased (P<0.05, P<0.01), the AQP2 and SDH mRNA expression levels, LDH and Na+-K+-ATPase activities had no significant difference. The comprehensive score analysis of each index showed that the effect of volatile oil of A. lancea on dryness and energy metabolism was stronger than that of volatile oil of A. chinensis, and there was a positive correlation between dryness index and energy metabolism index. ConclusionThe two indexes show that medicinal properties of A. lancea is stronger than that of A. chinensis, and energy metabolism is closely related to the dryness of Atractylodis Rhizoma. It is suggested that it is reasonable to evaluate the dryness effect of Atractylodis Rhizoma from the perspective of energy metabolism, which can further enrich the evaluation indexes of medicinal properties.

RESUMO
Objective:To analyze the cause of myofascial trigger points(MTrPs)in the infraspinatus muscle misdiagnosed as cervical spondylotic radiculopathy(CSR).Methods:Clinical data of patients with MTrPs in the infraspinatus muscle misdiagnosed as CSR were collected in Peking University Third Hospital from October 2016 to September 2019.Results:A total of 28 cases with MTrPs in the infraspinatus muscle were misdiagnosis as CSR.All patients received CT or magnetic resonance imaging evaluation of cervical spine, while none of them received physical examination in posterior shoulder area before confirming MTrPs in the infraspinatus muscle.The pain range was mainly located in the radial side of the shoulder, upper arm and forearm(89.3%)and was mainly unilateral(89.3%). The MTrPs in the supraspinatus muscle were mostly 2~3 points(67.8%). The visal analogue scale(VAS) score was significantly decreased after dry acupuncture as compared with pre-treatment[(2.7±1.4) vs.(6.1±1.3), P<0.05], and the overall treatment efficiency defined as VAS score decrement by more than 50%, was 82.1%. Conclusions:The neglect of medical history inquire and physical examination, and over-reliance on imaging findings are the important factors for misdiagnosis of MTrPs in the infraspinatus muscle as CSR.
RESUMO
Objective:To study the influence of Rhizoma Corydalis before and after vinegar processing on the microelement content in the eye tissues of rats to verify the vinegar processing leading the herb to liver meridian. Methods: The rats were divided into the crude Corydalis group, vinegar processing group and negative group. The content of microelement Cu, Zn and Mn in rat ocular tissues was determined and compared after the administration. Results:Corydalis could significantly increase the content of Cu and Zn in fun-dus blood and that of Zn and Mn in the eyeball vitreous, and Rhizoma Corydalis after vinegar processing showed more obvious effect. Conclusion:Rhizoma Corydalis with vinegar processing can improve the distribution of microelements in eye tissues, and because liver opens at eyes, the results provide evidence for Corydalis after vinegar processing leading to liver meridian.

RESUMO
Objective To compare the effect of allogeneic and autologous blood transfusion on postoperative immunoreaction in patients after spinal surgeries.Methods A total of 44 patients undergoing spinal operations were randomly divided into two groups.Allogeneic (n=22) or autologous (n=22) buffy-coat-depleted red cells were used in the patients during the operations.The serum levels of IL-6,IFN-?,and TNF-?were determined preoperatively and then re-measured 1 and 7 days after the operations. Results In theautologous group,both IFN-?and IL-6 increased after the oprerations,the level of IL-6 was significantly higher than that in the allogeneic group at days 1 and 7.The concentration of TNF-?did not change after the surgeries in the two groups. Conclusions By autologous blood transfusion,the serum levels of IFN-?and IL-6 can be increased significantly after spinal operation,meanwhile the concentration of TNF-?remains stable.The postoperative inhibitory effect of the procedure on immunocytokines is significantly weaker than that of allogeneic blood transfusion,indicating that autologous blood transfuion can protect or even increase immunofunction after spinal operation.
RESUMO
Objective To summarize the experience of anesthesia management of retroperitoneoscopic surgery in aged patients(aged more than 70 years old).Methods The clinical data of 81 aged patients(ranged from 70 to 86 years old,mean:74.2 years old)receiving retroperioneoscopic surgery from October 2002 to January 2007 was reviewed retrospectively in our hospital.Of whom,77 patients had concomitant diseases.81 patients were operated on under general anesthesia.Results Hypercarbia,acidosis and hypertension occurred in 35(43.2%),35(43.2%) and 41(50.6%) cases,respectively,after pneumoperitoneum.Tracheal catheters were pulled out in 66 patients in operation room,with the decannulation time being 5-50 minutes(mean,15.1 minutes).14 patients(17.3%) were transferred to ICU postoperatively.1 patient(1.2%) died from acute myocardial infarction.Sever delirious state was found in 1 patient.Conclusions On the basis of cautious perianesthesia management,aged patients can tolerate hypercapnia,acidosis and elevation of blood pressure induced by pneumoperitoneum,but the management of perianesthesia period should be prudent.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the general anesthesia for laparoscopy-assisted surgery in aged patients (≥80years). Methods The effects of general anesthesia in 39 patients who underwent laparoscopy-assisted surgery during the period from May 2000 to February 2007 were analyzed retrospectively. All the patients were 80 years old or above, with a mean of 83.3 years old. Among the patients 38 cases had systemic diseases, and some of them had more than one concomitant disease. The systemic diseases included diabetes mellitus in 6 cases, coronary atherosclerotic heart disease in 10 cases, hypertension in 18 cases, arrhythmia in 15 cases, cerebral vascular disease in 8 cases and anemia in 1 case. The laparoscopy-assisted surgery included cholecystectomy in 14 cases, radical resection for rectal cancer in 6 cases, for colon carcinoma in 8 cases, and for kidney cancer in 6 cases, and resection for colonic benign tumor, hernioplasty, gastro-jejunal anastomosis and fenestration of hepatic or renal cysts in 1 patient each. Results During the peri-narcosis period cerebral infarction occurred in 1 patient, and 20 patients were transferred to Intensity Care Unit. After operation 33 patients (84.6%) were cured and 6 patients (15.4%) had the illness condition improved. Conclusions The general anesthesia in laparoscopy-assisted surgery is safe and feasible for the elderly patients over 80 years old. The elderly patients may safely tide over the peri-narcosis period with good prognosis with effective control of complications and concomitant diseases. So the general anesthesia should not be categorically forbidden in laparoscopy-assisted surgery for the elderly patients with complications.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the application of the LMA CTrach for airway management during cervical spine surgery.Methods A total of 80 patients received cervical spine surgery under general anesthesia. During the operation, the LMA CTrach was used for ventilation and insertion of endotracheal tube. The authors recorded the time of laryngeal mask insertion, the success rate of ventilation, the success rate of the first attempt of endotracheal intubation, the number of attempts of endotracheal intubation, the time from insertion of the LMA CTrach to the completion of tracheal intubation. Results The LMA CTrach insertion was successfully completed in all but 2 patients. In 78 patients with good ventilation, the first attempt of endotracheal intubation failed in 5 patients. Except for unsuccessful ventilation in 2 patients and intubation failure for 3 times in 3 patients, the endotracheal intubation by using the LMA CTrach was accomplished in 75 patients. The mean time from insertion of the LMA CTrach to the completion of tracheal intubation was 192 s (range, 156~273 s). Conclusions The LMA CTrach system has the ability to align the LMA outlet with the larynx under direct view, and can increase the success rate of intubation and avoid some unnecessary injuries, giving certain advantages for airway management during cervical spine surgery.

RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the value of Univent tube in the airway management during one-lung ventilation. Methods A total of 40 patients with pneumothorax undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) were randomly divided into Univent (U) and double-lumen tube (Robertshaw) (D) groups (20 in each). In U group, intubation was performed under the guidance of a fibreoptic bronchoscope; while in D group, the position of the tube was confirmed using fibreoptic bronchoscopy after intubation. The time of intubation, number of secondary dislodgements, quality of lung deflation, peak airway pressure during one-lung ventilation, and blood artery gas analysis data in the two groups were recorded 30 minutes after one-lung ventilation. Results The intubation time in U group was significantly longer than that in D group [(6.18?1.26) min vs (3.26?0.82) min, t=8.654, P=0.000]. The number of secondary dislodgements was 7 in U group, and 5 in D group(U=187.500, P=0.663). No significant difference was detected in the quality of lung deflation between the two groups, (U group: 15 excellent, 3 fair, and 2 poor; D group: 17 excellent, 2 fair, and 1 poor;U=179.500, P=0.583). The peak airway pressure during one-lung ventilation in U group was significantly lower than that in D group [(15.3?3.5) cm H2O vs (21.4?6.6) cm H2O, t=-3.649, P=0.001]; and the oxygen pressure in group U was significantly higher than that in group D [(303.8?65.7) mm Hg vs (258.4?72.9) mm Hg, t=2.066, P=0.046]. No significant difference was found in carbon dioxide pressure and oxygen saturation between the two groups. Conclusion During VATS, univent tube showed the same effectiveness and safety as DLT for one-lung ventilation.

RESUMO
Objective To investigate the influence of autologous blood transfusion on oxygen metabolism in patients undergoing orthopedics surgery. Methods Forty patients 28-65 yr weighing 55-80 kg scheduled for internal fixation of spine were randomly divided into two groups with 20 patients in each group. Anesthesia was induced with intravenous fentanyl , propofol and vecuronium and maintained with inhalation of isoflurane. Patients bleeding less than 600 ml or more than 1 200 ml were excluded. When the loss blood volume was more than 600 ml, the autologous blood of 600 ml obtained from the autotransfusion device was remfused to the patients in group A, the heterogenous blood of 600 ml was transfused in group B, The radial and pulmonary arteries were cannulated for measurement of hemodynamics and blood gas analysis. The cardiac index, oxygen delivery, oxygen consumption, oxygen extraction ratio were calculated and blood lactate concentration was measured immediately before anesthesia , after infusion of autologous or heterogenous blood, at the end of the operation and one day after the operation respectively. Results Compared with the baseline, only oxygen delivery increased significantly after infusion autologous blood or heterogenous blood, at the end of the operation in both groups ( P 0.05) . As compared with that in group B, oxygen extraction ratio decreased significantly in group A ( P 0.05). Conclusion Upon condition that bleeding volumes is limited (600-1 200 ml) in patient undergoing orthopedic surgery, autologous blood transfusion technique can provide enough oxygen for tissue metabolism.
