Effect of anesthetic methods on postoperative CD3, CD4 and CD4CD25 in patients with lung cancer undergoing radical operation.

Effects of anesthesia methods on immune function in patients with lung cancer undergoing radical operation were investigated. A total of 122 patients undergoing radical resection of lung cancer who were treated in Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from September 2013 to April 2016 were randomly divided into the combined anesthesia group and the intravenous anesthesia group, with 61 cases in each group. The patients in the combined anesthesia group were given intravenous combined epidural anesthesia.

Combined neurolytic block of celiac and superior hypogastric plexuses for incapacitating upper abdominal cancer pain.

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of a combined neurolytic block of the celiac and superior hypogastric plexuses for incapacitating upper abdominal cancer pain.

Methods: Fifty-two patients with advanced upper abdominal malignancies and incapacitating pain were equally randomized to receive a combined neurolytic block of the celiac and superior hypogastric plexuses (combined group) or a neurolytic celiac plexus block alone (NCPB group) using a 90% ethanol trans-intervertebral disk approach under CT guidance. Visual analogue scores (VAS), morphine consumption, and quality of life (QoL) were assessed before the procedure and 24 hrs, 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months after the procedure.

Effect of qubi zhentong recipe on synovial gene expression in collagen-induced arthritis in rats.

Objective: To investigate the effect of the Chinese medical formula Qubi Zhentong Recipe(, QZR) on the synovial gene expression profile in collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) rats.

Methods: Ten rats were randomly chosen from 60 rats as the control group, and the other 50 rats were used for the CIA models. The CIA model group was constructed by bovine injection of type II collagen through the rats' neck and tail.

[Effects of qubi zhentong recipe on the expressions of IL-1beta, IL-8, and VEGF in the synovial of rats with collagen-inducing arthritis].

Objective: To research the effects of Qubi Zhentong Recipe (QZR) on the expressions of interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta), interleukin-8 (IL-8), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the synovial of rats with collagen-inducing arthritis (CIA), and to discuss its mechanisms of action.

Methods: Healthy male Wistar rats were recruited and randomly divided into the model group ( n = 50) and the normal control group (n = 10). Rats of the model group were injected with type II collagen of bovine (BC II) emulsion in the tail and nape to establish the CIA model.

[Observation on the analgesic effect of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation for breast radical carcinoma operation].

Objective: To observe the analgesic effect of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) in assisting general anesthesia (GA) for radical operation of breast carcinoma so as to explore its clinical application value.

Methods: Sixty patients scheduled for radical operations of the breast carcinoma were randomly and equally divided into GA group and TEAS+ GA group. For GA, Propofol [4.
