Objective The study was designed to evaluate the clinical efficacy of azithromycin in lung function of patients with IPF.Methods Randomized controlled trials were searched in CNKI,data-base of Wanfang and WeiPu,where azithromycin was used to patients with IPF.We extracted all data on lung functions,standardized mean difference (SMD)with 95% confidence intervals (CI )were pooled with Stata 11.0.Results Seven unique trials with 516 participants were identified.Be compared to pred-nisone,the patients with IPF received azithromycin experienced no improvement in FVC% [SMD = -2.00,95% CI =(-2.05,-1.95)],but it was found that azithromycin was superior to prednisone in in-crease the percentage of carbon monoxide diffusing [SMD =1.16,95% CI =(-2.83,5.16)]and de-cline the percentage of residual volume[SMD =3.00,95% CI =(1.04,4.96)].Azithromycin combined with prednisone were statistically superior to prednisone alone in improvement of FEV1 %[SMD =7.80, 95% CI =(5.92,9.67)],FVC%[SMD =7.23,95% CI =(4.89,7.56)]and lung carbon monoxide diffusion function[ml/(min·kpa))][SMD =40.62,95% CI =(38.96,42.28)].Conclusions Our study suggests that azithromycin significantly improvement pulmonary diffusion function in patients with IPF. Azithromycin combined with prednisone were more effective in improvement of FEV1 %,FVC% and lung diffusion function.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of one-stage posterior-anterior approach surgery for patients with cervical fracture and dislocation combined with locked facet.Methods A retrospective review was conducted on 21 cases of cervical dislocation and fracture combined with locked facet treated by one-stage posterior-anterior approach surgery between April 2011 and December 2012.There were 16 males and 5 females at age ranging from 23 to 61 years (mean,38.3 years).Posterior unlocking reduction by partial facetectomy and lateral mass screw fixation was performed,followed by anterior decompression,internal fixation and interbody fusion by titanium meshes.Outpatient or telephone follow-up was performed to evaluate bone fusion and recovery of neurologic function.Results Mean operation time was 140 minutes (130-210 minutes) and mean blood loss was 340 ml (range,150-600 ml).All incisions got primary healing with no operation-correlated complications.Five patients complicated with severe lung infection after surgery and one died of respiratory failure two week later.Titanium meshes achieved bone fusion within 3-9 months (mean,6 months) after surgery.At a mean follow-up of 17 months (range,12-30 months),there was no implant breakage and mesh displacement or collapse.According to the American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) score,preoperative neurologic deficit restored by mean one grade at final follow-up.Conclusion One-stage posterior-anterior approach surgery is an ideal choice for cervical fracture and dislocation combined with locked facet,for it provides unlocking reduction,canal decompression,and rigid reconstruction of the anterior-posterior column.

Objective To assess the therapeutic effect and safety of radiofrequency catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation.Methods We analyzed the clinical data of 47 patients with atrial fibrillation who underwent radiofrequency catheter ablation between March 2013 and January 2008,in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University.In the average 32 months’follow-up,Holter monitering and echocardiography were reviewed for the left atrial diameter.Results The immediate success rate of catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation was 82.6%.The long-term success rate was 65%,the rate of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation was 69.7%,and the rate of longstanding persistent atrial fibrillation was 42.9%.After ablation,the left atrial diameter were markedly reduced compared with that before treatment [(36.3 ± 4.3 )mm vs .(38.1 ± 5.9 )mm)(P < 0.001 ).The patients with recurrent atrial fibrillation were older than those without recurrence,their left atrial diameter was bigger,and the prevalence rate of hypertension was higher (P <0.05).The average atrial fibrillation load was 14.9% after ablation compared with 46.1% before (P <0.05).Conclusion Radiofrequency catheter ablation is an effective and safe treatment of atrial fibrillation,especially for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.The left atrial diameter was significantly decreased after radiofrequency catheter ablation compared with that before the ablation.

Objective To investigate the methods and effects of nasolabial flaps for repair of defects after skin tumor removal on midface.Methods From Augest 2012 to March 2015,the different flaps from nasolabial fold were utilized to repair 22 skin defects due to surgical removal of skin tumors on midface.There were 12 flaps with subcutaneous pedicle and 10 flaps with skin pedicle in the group.The size of the defects ranged from0.5cm × 1.0cmto4.0cm × 5.0cm.Results After operation,all flaps survived with primary healing,cosmetic results were satisfactory with conceal scar and no facial organs distortion after 1 month to 2 years following-up.No tumor recurrence occurred.Conclusions Thenasolabial flaps with appropriate pedicles could obtain the satisfactory results for the reconstruction of medium-sized skin defects on midface,especially suitable for middle-aged and elderly patients.

Surgical resection is still the mainstay for treatment of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC).Gemcitabine and cisplatin is a systemic therapy practice standard for patients with non-resectable ICC.Neoadjuvant therapy with liver transplantation may be a new therapeutic option for patients with ICC.In addition, radiotherapy, hepatic intra-arterial therapy, ablation therapy and molecular targeted therapy are important components of comprehensive therapy for ICC.

Objective To evaluate the effect of second-line antiretroviral treatment (ART) on human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) and provide reference for subsequent HIV/AIDS treatment.Methods Two hundred and twenty-eight HIV/AIDS patients received second-line ART during January 2011 and December 2015 in Zhengzhou were included.Two hundred and forty-eight who received first-line ART during this period were randomly enrolled as control group.CD4+ T cell count and HIV RNA load before and after treatment were compared with x2 test and t test when appropriate.Results There were 228 patients (137 male and 91 female) in the second-line ART group and 248 patients (176 male and 72 female) in the control group.In second-line ART group, CD4+ T cells increased from (274±200)/μL to (476±261)/μL after an average treatment of (39.5±18.8) months.The difference was statistically significant (t=12.91, P<0.05).In control group, CD4+T cells increased from (251±199)/μL to (470±233)/μL after an average treatment of (35.7±14.7) months.The difference was statistically significant (t=14.60, P<0.05).CD4+ T cells showed no statistical difference between two groups regardless of treatment (t=1.25 and 0.26, respectively, both P>0.05).During the treatment, the rates of immunological failure were 9.6% (22/228) in second-line ART group and 12.9% (32/248) in the control group.There was no statistical difference between two groups (x2=1.251, P>0.05).Complete viral inhibition rates were 83.3% (190/228) in second-line ART group and 88.7% (220/248) in control group with no statistical difference (x2=2.881, P>0.05).Conclusions Second-line ART regimen has equivalent treatment efficacy with first-line ART.To achieve a better outcome, second-line ART regimen should be selected as an alternative option when first-line regimen fails.Compliance is the key to guarantee the success of antiviral therapy.

Objective: To determine the clinical efficacy and feasibility of multiple special formed titanium mesh cages (TMCs) to treat lumbo-sacral spinal tuberculosis via posterior approach. Methods: From July, 2007 to June, 2013, 25 patients with lumbo-sacral spinal tuberculosis underwent one-stage posterior debridement, internal if xation, and interbody fusion using multiple special formed titanium meshes. We compared the parameters as follow: the pre- and post-operative American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) score, lumbo-sacral angle, the height of intervertebral space, visual analogue scale (VAS), and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and observedoperation time, intraoperative blood loss, and time of bone gratf fusion. Results: Operation time ranged from 90 to 180 min, (128±24) min in average. Blood loss in the operation ranged from 100 to 800 mL, (310±125) mL in average. hTe patients were followed up for 24 to 59 months, (43±7) months in average. One patient delayed healing of wound. ASIA score was improved in a certain degree in patients with neurological dysfunctions. hTe lumbo-sacral angle and the height of intervertebral space in the post-operation were signiifcantly higher than those in the pre-operation (P<0.001). VAS was reduced obviously atfer 2 weeks of operation. hTe ESR recovered to the normal level 6 months atfer operation in all the patients. Solid fusion was achieved within 4 to 8 months, 6 months in average. No sinus tract, cerebrospinal meningitis, tuberculosis recurrence and titanium mesh subsidence were found. Conclusion: For lumbo-sacral tuberculosis, multiple special formed titanium mesh cages via posterior approach is safe and effective, which is good to the stability in spine reconstruction.

Objective To assess the effectiveness and safety of radiofrequency catheter ablation for idiopathic ventricular arrhythmia in patients with idiopathic ventricular arrhythmia after radiofrequency catheter ablation treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University based on the follow-up and retrospective analysis.Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 63 patients with idiopathic ventricular arrhythmia who underwent radiofrequency catheter ablation during January 2008 and March 2014 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University.In the follow-up,Holter moniterings were reviewed to evaluate ventricular arrhythmia and echocardiography to assess the ejection fractions and left ventricular end-diastolic diameters.Results The immediate success rate of catheter ablation for the treatment of idiopathic ventricular arrhythmia was 89.29% and the long-term success was 82.14%.The ejection fractions and left ventricular end-diastolic diameters were not obviously improved after radiofrequency ablation (P > 0.05 ). The ventricular premature contractions were significantly reduced after radiofrequency ablation (P <0.05).In postoperative care, one case was found with ruptured sinus valsalva tumor and another patient was found with the complication of hematoma in femoral artery puncture.Conclusion Radiofrequency ablation for idiopathic ventricular arrhythmia is safe and effective.

Objective To measure middle cerebral artery (MCA) hemodynamic parameters of chronic cerebral ischemia in middle aged and elderly people with phase contrast magnetic resonance imaging (PCMRI),and to explore cerebral blood flow dynamic pattern in different degrees of chronic cerebral ischemia patients.Methods Middle aged and elderly people underwent conventional MRI scan,and were divided into 12 cases of the normal group,16 cases of mild cerebral ischemia group and 13 cases of obvious cerebral ischemia group.All groups underwent bilateral MCA PCMRI.Bilateral MCA hemodynamic parameters and phase-velocity curve in a heartbeat cycle were obtained by QFLOW analysis software on the workstation for post-processing.Bilateral MCA vascular area,peak velocity (PV),mean velocity (MV) and mean flow (MF) were recorded.The differences of bilateral MCA hemodynamic parameters among the three groups were compared by SPSS17.0 software.Results Bilateral MCA vascular area,MV,MF and right MCA PV among three groups were statistically significant by one-Way ANOVA (P＜0.05).Compared with normal group,systolic peak of bilateral MCA phase-velocity curve was low,dull,widen,and the connection between the diastolic peak and systolic peak became flattened in chronic cerebral ischemia patients.Conclusion PCMRI can reflect the differences of the cerebral blood flow dynamic change pattern between different degrees of chronic cerebral ischemia.
