Abstract
We aimed to explore the effect of an intravenous infusion of lidocaine combined with ulinastatin on perioperative analgesia and recovery for pancreatic cancer patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery. Postoperative extubation time, time of stay in the recovery room after anesthesia, gastrointestinal function recovery time, and hospital stay in the observation group were all lower in the group receiving ulinastatin. Also, there was a decrease in the Visual Analogue Scale scores for pain at rest and cough in the group receiving ulinastatin. The serum levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin-6, interleukin-8, and tumor necrosis factor-α were lower in the group receiving ulinastatin. In summary, ulinastatin improves the effect of lidocaine on perioperative analgesia and postoperative recovery of pancreatic cancer without additional side effects during laparoscopic-assisted surgery.
期刊介绍:
Current Topics in Nutraceutical Research is an international, interdisciplinary broad-based peer reviewed scientific journal for critical evaluation of research on chemistry, biology and therapeutic applications of nutraceuticals and functional foods. The major goal of this journal is to provide peer reviewed unbiased scientific data to the decision makers in the nutraceutical and food industry to help make informed choices about development of new products.
To this end, the journal will publish two types of review articles. First, a review of preclinical research data coming largely from animal, cell culture and other experimental models. Such data will provide basis for future product development and/or human research initiatives. Second, a critical evaluation of current human experimental data to help market and deliver the product for medically proven use. This journal will also serve as a forum for nutritionists, internists, neurologists, psychiatrists, and all those interested in preventive medicine.
The common denominator of all of the topic to be covered by the journal must include nutraceuticals and/functional food. The following is an example of some specific areas that may be of interest to the journal. i) Role of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and phytonutrients on cardiovascular health, cancer, diabetes, ocular health, mental health, men’s health, women’s health, infant nutrition, ii) Role of herbals on human health, iii) Dietary supplements and sleep, iv) Components of diet that may have beneficial effect on human health, v) regulation of apoptosis and cell viability, vi) Isolation and characterization of bioactive components from functional foods, vii) Nutritional genomics, and viii) Nutritional proteomics.
