Due to their advanced age and the presence of some primary diseases, both anesthesia and surgery are increasingly difficult in elderly patients with a femoral neck fractures. In fact,general anesthesia can easily induce complications such as cognitive dysfunction,which is not conducive to postoperative recovery.AIM To analyze the efficacy of dexmedetomidine in inducing anesthesia for elderly patients undergoing hip replacement surgery.METHODS A total of 98 elderly patients undergoing hip replacement in our hospital from June 2020 to June 2021 were randomly divided into control group(49 cases) and observation group(49 cases). The control group was given general anesthesia, and the observation group was combined with dexmedetomidine for anesthesia on the basis of the control group. Both groups were observed until the patients were discharged. The vital signs, serum inflammatory factors and renal function indexes of the two groups were compared before, during and 6 h after operation.The postoperative recovery and adverse events of the two groups were statistically analyzed.RESULTS Compared with the mean arterial pressure of the two groups, the intraoperative and postoperative 6 h was higher than that before the operation, the intraoperative was lower than the postoperative 6 h(P < 0.05);the blood oxygen saturation of the two groups was higher than that before operation and 6 h after operation, and the observation group was higher than the control group 6 h after operation(P < 0.05). The heart rate of the two groups was lower during and 6 h after operation than that before operation, and higher at 6 h after operation than that during operation(P < 0.05).The levels of serum C-reactive protein, tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1β and kidney injury molecule-1 in the two groups were higher during operation and 6 h after operation than those before operation(P < 0.05). The level of serum urea nitrogen in the two groups was higher than that before operation, and that in the observation group was lower than that in the control group(P < 0.05). During hospitalization, the first time of getting out of bed, recovery time of grade Ⅱ muscle strength, recovery time of grade Ⅲ muscle strength and hospitalization time in the observation group were shorter than those in the control group(P < 0.05).CONCLUSION Dexmedetomidine can effectively improve the vital signs of elderly patients undergoing hip replacement surgery, reduce the body’s inflammatory response and renal function damage, and promote postoperative recovery. Meanwhile, dexmedetomidine showcased a good safety profile and a good anesthetic outcome.展开更多

Berberine is an essential active compound contained in P. amurense. Our objective in this study was to quantify the content of berberine in P.amurense from sites at different elevations on Changbai Mountain. We collected samples of P. amurense from five different elevations on Changbai Mountain. Berberine in samples was extracted by ultrahigh pressure extraction(UPE). And the quantity was measured by high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC). First, the optimal HPLC conditions for berberine were identified with satisfactory precision(relative standard deviation, R SD/5.6 %), good accuracy(relative error, R E/ 3.6 %) and good linear relation(R2= 0.9998) in the range of 6.576–328.8 mg L-1. Second, the combination of UPE and HPLC methods in quantitative analysis of berberine showed high repeatability(R SD= 3.28 %), reproducibility(R SD= 4.72 %),stability(R SD/ 1.27 %) and good recovery(99.54 %) for real plant materials. Samples from Heilongjiang Province at the lowest elevation contained the highest amount of berberine.Similarly, the lowest amount of berberine was recorded in samples from Changbai Forest Bureau of Jilin Province collected at the highest elevation in this paper. The proposed UPE–HPLC method is simple, reliable and low-cost for quantitative analysis of berberine. Content of berberine in P.amurense varied significantly by site on Changbai Mountain.展开更多
