Objective:To explore the role of hippocampal γ oscillation abnormality in sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE).Methods:Seventy male Sprague-Dawley rats (2-3 months) were randomly (random number) divided into three groups according to the random digital table method: sham, CLP, and CLP + dopamine 4 (D4) receptor agonists RO-10-5824 group. The SAE animal model was established by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). On day 10-14 after surgery, the open field, novel object recognition, and fear conditioning tests were performed. After that, the hippocampus was collected to measure expressions of parvalbumin (PV) and D4 receptor. In another set of experiment, CA1 local field potential (LFP) were recorded, and the relationship between LFP and time with novel object was analyzed. Independent sample t-test was used for pairwise comparisons, and multiple comparisons were performed by one-way ANOVA, followed by the Tukey multiple comparisons test. Correlation was analyzed using Pearson correlation. Statistical significance was assumed when P<0.05. Results:Compared with the sham group, hippocampal PV (77.54±4.61)%, D4 expression (56.36±3.88)% and γ oscillation power (41.1±8.62)%, object exposure time (36±3) s, new object recognition rate (49±4)%, and scene stiffness time (56±7) s were decreased significantly ( P<0.05). However, RO-10-5824 treatment could increase hippocaml γ oscillation power (92.3±6.7)%, and reverse the decreased new object exposure time (44±3) s and new object recognition rate (63±4)%. Correlation analysis showed that hippocampal γ oscillation power was positively associated with new object exposure time ( r=0.609 2, P=0.015 9). There was no difference in total distance traveled or time spent in the center among groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Hippocampal γ oscillation abnormality might play a key role in cognitive impairment associated with SAE.

Objective To investigate the effects of Nod-like receptor protein 3 inhibitor MCC950 on cognitive function in a mouse model of sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE).Methods Ninety adult male C57BL/6 mice were randomly (random number) divided into three groups:the sham + saline group (n=20,sham group),CLP + saline group (n=35,CLP group),and CLP + MCC950 group (n=35,MCC950 group).SAE mouse model was established by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) surgery.Saline (10 mL/kg) or MCC950 (10 mg/kg) was intraperitoneally injected 30 min before surgery and on day 1,2,4 and 6 after surgery according the grouping.Seven days after surgery,six mice were taken from each group.Western blot was used to detect the hippocampal content of NLRP3,apoptosis-associated specklike protein (ASC),interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and IL-18.The number of NLRP3-positive cells in CA 1 region were detected by immunohistochemical analysis.The remaining mice in each group were used for open field and fear conditioning tests 14 days after surgery.One-way analysis of variance was used for inter-group comparison,and SNK-q test was used for pairwise comparison.A P value <0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results Compared the MCC950 group with the CLP group,the freezing time of context test was significantly increased [(137±21) s vs (84±15) s,P=0.013],the hippocampal content of NLRP3,IL-1β and IL-18 were significantly reduced (P<0.01),and the number of NLRP3-immunoreactive cells per mm2 in CA region were significantly decreased (23±5 vs 74±13,P<0.01).There was no significant changes in protein level of ASC and results of open field tests (P>0.05).Conclusions MCC950 administration can improve cognitive function in a mouse model of SAE,which is probably due to the inhibition of NLRP3 inflammasome and downstream inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and IL-18.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of preemptive analgesiawith ultrasound-guided modified dorsal penile nerve block combined ketorolac tromethamine for circumcision in pediatric patients.Methods Forty-five pediatric patients with ASA grade Ⅰ undergoing elective circumcision were randomly divided into 3 groups (n=15 each).The same intravenous compound anesthesia was used in the three groups.The pediatric patients underwent ultrasound-guided modified dorsal penile nerve block with a mixture of 0.1 ml/kg of 0.2% ropivacaine and 0.8% lidocaine before operation in group A and group B.The pediatric patients were given ketorolac tromethamine 1 mg/kg intramuscular injection before operation in group A and group C.The total consumption of propfol and sufentanil, occurrence of intraoperative body movement and respiratory depression, emergence time, time from waking up to going out of PACU and adverse reactions such as postoperative agitation, nausea, vomiting and pruritus were aslo recorded.The requirement for postoperative paracetamol suppositories was recorded.Results Compared with group C, the total consumption of propfol and sufentanil were significantly decreased, incidence of body movement andrespiratory depression were significantly decreased, the emergence time and time from waking up to going out of PACU was significantly shortened, requirement for paracetamol suppositories were significantly decreased in group A and group B(P<0.05).Compared with group B, incidence of requirement for paracetamol suppositories was significantly decreased in group A (P<0.05).No pediatric patients developed postoperative nausea, vomiting, pruritus and incidence of emergence agitation had no statistical difference in the three groups.Conclusion Preemptive analgesia with ultrasound-guided modified dorsal penile nerve block combined ketorolac tromethamine is safe and effective when used for circumcision in pediatric patients, and it has good efficacy of postoperative analgesia.
