不同剂量地佐辛术后镇痛对老年患者肝功能的影响

目的 探讨地佐辛术后镇痛对高龄患者围术期肝功能的影响。方法 选择2018 年1 月～2020 年6 月吉安市中心人民医院麻醉科收治的ASA 分级Ⅱ～Ⅲ级高龄患者80 例，按照随机数字表法，分为A 组、B 组、C 组、D 组，每组各20 例。分别给予0.4 mg/kg、0.5 mg/kg、0.6 mg/kg、0.7 mg/kg 地佐辛进行术后镇痛，评估术后1、2、6、12、24、48 h 患者的疼痛程度[视觉模拟评分法（VAS）]、术后镇静效果（Ramsay 评分法）及肝功能指标（ALT、AST）水平，评价不同剂量的地佐辛术后镇痛对高龄患者围术期肝功能的影响。结果 C 组术后患者不同时间段VAS 疼痛评分低于A 组、B 组、D 组，差异有统计学意义（P＜0.05）；四组患者术后1、2、6 h Ramsay 镇静评分比较，差异有统计学意义（P＜0.05）；但术后12、24、48 h Ramay 镇痛评分比较，差异无统计学意义（P＞0.05）。C 组肝功能指标ALT、AST优于A 组、B 组、D 组，差异有统计学意义（P＜0.05）。结论 高龄患者术后镇痛应用0.6 mg/kg地佐辛对围术期肝功能的影响最小。     

Ospemifene plus fractional CO2 laser: a powerful strategy to treat postmenopausal vulvar pain

Abstract

This study is a single-center, retrospective analysis of postmenopausal women presenting with dyspareunia and vulvar pain, aiming to evaluate relative effectiveness of vestibular CO₂ laser therapy as a treatment. Three monthly sessions of laser were performed to each patient and thereafter a three-months follow-up was stablished. A total number of 72 patients undergoing vestibular laser treatment were recruited from patient files in the period between 2016 and 2018. Among these, 39 women also received a concomitant treatment with ospemifene (60?mg/day) during the study period. There was a statistically significant reduction of all the symptoms in both groups up to the three month follow-up. Regarding dryness and dyspareunia, the relief tent to be more prominent in the ospemifene?+?laser group at all follow-ups and remained statistically significant at three-month follow-up. Specifically, vestibular dryness was significantly lower in the ospemifene?+?laser group compared with the laser treatment group (?87% vs???34%, respectively), and the vestibular health score started declining faster in the ospemifene?+?laser group. Although, additional research is needed to understand the mechanism of action, our data shows that a combination regimen of laser and ospemifene may improve clinical effectiveness for long-term treatment of symptoms associated with the under-recognized genitourinary syndrome of menopause.

Optimizing Rapid Recovery After Anterior Hip Arthroplasty Surgery: A Comparative Study of Fascia Iliaca Compartment Block and Local Infiltration Analgesia

BackgroundMultimodal pain therapy combining analgesics, local infiltration analgesia (LIA) and peripheral nerve blocks, such as fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB), can improve postoperative pain, nausea and vomiting (PONV) and ambulation in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA). We hypothesized that addition of FICB would decrease opioid requirements and length of stay (LOS) but could create a motor block.MethodsThis is a single center, prospective, blinded randomized controlled study of 152 patients undergoing elective THA via direct anterior approach from October 2019 till August 2021. Three patient groups were defined: patients receiving only spinal anesthesia (control group, n = 53); spinal anesthesia with LIA perioperatively (n = 50); and spinal anesthesia with FICB on the recovery unit (n = 49). Outcome measures consisted of postoperative pain scores, PONV, length of hospital stay, opioid requirements and mobility.ResultsOverall pain scores were low for all patient groups, with a lower pain score for LIA in comparison to the control group until 4 hours postoperatively (P < .05). Length of hospital stay, postoperative pain, nausea and vomiting (PONV) scores and quadriceps muscle strength did not differ significantly between groups. The control group showed higher scores at 12 hours postoperatively in comparison to FICB regarding rehabilitation potential, use of walking aids and activities of daily living (P < .05), but all groups reached the same endpoint 48 hours postoperatively. The LIA and FICB groups required less opioids until 24 hours postoperatively.ConclusionLIA is a beneficial adjuvant therapy to spinal anesthesia in THA patients as it may decrease pain scores and the need for opioid consumption. Adjuvant FICB only provided lower opioid requirements.     

国医大师王琦教授中医体质学理论在疼痛性疾病诊疗中的临床应用

慢性疼痛涉及临床各科的多种疾病，包括一些重大疾病和疑难疾病。中医体质学是中医学的新兴学科，其体质分类、体病相关思想以及“辨体论治”的诊疗方法已广泛应用到临床各科疾病的诊疗中。文章探讨了以中医体质学思想指导疼痛性疾病诊疗的若干理论问题，认为疼痛性疾病的发生与患者体质类型存在密切的关系。因此，在临床辨治疼痛性疾病时要考虑患者体质因素。所施方药不仅要符合病证特点，也要针对患者体质类型。并列举国医大师王琦教授辨体论治慢性前列腺炎盆腔疼痛综合征、偏头痛、过敏性头痛等疼痛性疾病的案例加以分析，以期为相关领域同仁提供参考。     

Posterior ankle impingement disguised as peroneal tendon subluxation in young athletes – a case report

Posterior ankle impingement is a cause of posterior ankle pain common in those who perform frequent plantarflexion activities. Three young patients presented with posterior ankle pain which was initially attributed to peroneal tendon subluxation. However, detailed physical exam and imaging confirmed the diagnosis of posterior ankle impingement as the actual cause of pain. The peroneal tendon subluxation was not causal but an unrelated co-incidental finding. After failed prolonged conservative management (rest, immobilization and physical therapy), the patients underwent posterior ankle arthroscopic debridement for the impingement resulting in return to prior sporting activity without limitation and no recurrence of pain at 19 months follow-up. Posterior ankle impingement diagnosis could be masked by co-incidental asymptomatic peroneal tendon subluxation in pediatric patients.
