GroupInterventionDescription
Sevoflurane General anesthesiaSevofluraneAnesthesia was induced with 8% sevoflurane with 8L/min oxygen. Anesthesia was maintained with 1-3% sevoflurane in oxygen/air mixture.
Propofol General anesthesiaPropofolAnesthesia was induced with propofol 4mg/kg. Anesthesia was maintained with propofol 7-12mg/kg/h.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
the change of blood glutathione peroxidase(GPx) level in perioperative periodimmediately after anesthetic induction, 2h and 3 days after operation
the change of blood-separated erythrocytes catalase (CAT) activities in perioperative periodimmediately after anesthetic induction, 2h and 3 days after operation

the blood sample was separated and erythrocytes was obtained, catalase activity was measured using the OxiSelect catalase activity assay (Cell Biolabs, San Diego, CA, USA)

the change of blood-separated erythrocytes superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities in perioperative periodimmediately after anesthetic induction, 2h and 3 days after operation

the blood sample was separated and erythrocytes was obtained, superoxide dismutase activity was measured using a commercially available assay-Ransod kit (Randox Laboratories, UK).

the change of blood-separated lymphocytes caspase-3 mRNA level in perioperative periodimmediately after anesthetic induction, 2h and 3 days after operation

Lymphocytes were separated from whole blood and freshly used for real-time PCR of caspase-3
