Objective To evaluate the first-line and second-line anti-tuberculosis drugs resistance of clinical Mycobacterium tuberculosis ( M. TB) isolates and the prevalence of Extensively Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis (XDR-TB) in hospital-base TB patients in Shandong province, China. Methods Absolute concentration method based on egg medium were examined for drug-resistance of M. TB strains to 4 first-line anti-tuberculosis drugs (INH, RFP, SM, and EMB) and 5 second-line drugs (FQ,CPM,AMK,and PAS).Results 1021 isolates were obtained from clinical TB patients at Shandong Provincial Chest Hospital during November 2004 to April 2007. Of those, 32 strains ( 3.1% ) were identified to Mycobacterium other than tuberculosis. Among 989 M. TB complexe isolates, the general resistance rate to first-line drugs were 32. 3% (95% CI:28.7% - 35.8% ), 107 isolates ( 10. 8% ) were found to be MDR-TB. According to the revised Global XDR-TB Task Force definition, a total of 20( 18. 7% ) MDR-TB patients met criteria for XDR-TB. All XDR-TB patients were previously treated pulmonary tuberculosis cases. Conclusions The prevalence of resistant to second-line anti-tuberculosis drugs in Mycobacterium tuberculosis was very serious, and high prevalence of XDR-TB in hospital-base patients was found in high-level The study showed that it is important to successively survey the anti-tuberculosis drug resistance in clinical laboratory.

Objective:To analyze the clinical efficacy of arthroscopic transverse release of the iliotibial band through peritrochanteric space for the treatment of external snapping hip.Methods:A total of 30 patients (12 males and 18 females) with bilateral external snapping hip underwent arthroscopic transverse release of the iliotibial band through peritrochanteric space in Department of Sports Medicine, Senior Department of Orthopaedics, the Fourth Medical Center, Chinese PLA General Hospital were retrospectively analyzed from May 2021 and June 2022. The average age was 32.5±8.2 years (range, 17-51 years). At the same time, 30 patients who underwent arthroscopic external release of the iliotibial band through the external surface of the iliotibial band (external iliotibial band group) were selected as control group, including 13 males and 17 females, aged 29.5±6.8 years (range, 11-45 years). The visual analogue scale (VAS), modified Harris hip score (mHHS), and gluteal muscle contracture disability scale (GDS) were compared between the two groups at preoperative, 6 months postoperative, and final follow-up.Results:All patients successfully completed the operation and were followed up for 17.5±3.3 months (range, 12-25 months). The VAS scores of the two groups at the last follow-up were lower than those before operation ( P<0.05). The mHHS scores before operation, 6 months after operation and at the last follow-up in the peritrochanteric space group were 76.5 (67.0, 85.5), 98.5 (94.8, 100.0) and 100.0 (97.0, 100.0), respectively, and those in the external iliotibial band group were 80.5 (70.0, 86.0), 100.0 (96.0, 100.0) and 100.0 (99.5, 100.0). The differences in mHHS scores between the two groups were statistically significant for intragroup comparisons ( P<0.05); of these, 6 months postoperatively and at the last follow-up were greater than preoperatively, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05); the differences at 6 months postoperatively and at the last follow-up were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in mHHS scores between groups at different time points ( P>0.05). The GDS before operation, at 6 months after operation and at the last follow-up were 47.0 (35.8, 64.5), 90.0 (81.0, 94.0) and 93.5 (89.8, 98.0) in the peritrochanteric space group, and 51.0 (38.0, 64.5), 50.0 (81.0, 94.0) and 93.5 (89.8, 98.0) in the external iliotibial band group, respectively. The differences in GDS between the two groups were statistically significant for intragroup comparisons ( P< 0.05); of these, 6 months postoperatively and at the last follow-up were greater than preoperatively, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05); the differences at 6 months postoperatively and at the last follow-up were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in GDS between groups at different time points ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Arthroscopic transverse release of the iliotibial band through peritrochanteric space for the treatment of external snapping hip can effectively reduce hip pain and improve hip function, with satisfactory clinical results, and can be used as an alternative treatment to transverse release through the external surface of the iliotibial band.

Objective:To compare the short-term efficacy of hip arthroscopic surgery assisted by platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and hip arthroscopy alone in the treatment of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI).Methods:A retrospective cohort study was performed on the clinical data of 133 FAI patients admitted to Fourth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital from January 2019 to January 2021. The patients included 86 males and 47 females, aged 19-71 years [(39.1±12.6)years]. A total of 67 patients were treated with hip arthroscopy alone (hip arthroscopy group), and 66 patients were treated with PRP after hip arthroscopy under ultrasound guidance (hip arthroscopy+PRP group). The two groups were compared before, at 12 months after surgery and at the last follow-up regarding the following items: Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Modified Harris Hip Score, International Hip Outcome Tool-12 (iHOT-12), and Hip Outcome Score Activities of Daily Living Scale (HOS-ADL). The incidence rate of complications after surgery was compared between the two groups.Results:A total of 108 patients were followed up for 24-36 months [(28.5±3.8)months], while 25 patients were lost to follow-up because of withdrawal of consent, wrong telephone number, etc, including 11 patients (16.4%) in the hip arthroscopy group and 14 patients (21.2%) in the hip arthroscopy+PRP group. The values of VAS in the hip arthroscopy group before, at 12 months after surgery and at the last follow-up were 5.00(5.00, 7.00)points, 3.00(2.00, 3.75)points, and 1.00(0.00, 2.00)points, respectively; the values of Modified Harris Hip Score were 49.00(39.00, 57.00)points, 76.00(69.25, 82.00)points, and 86.00(82.00, 88.00)points, respectively; the values of iHOT-12 were 0.45(0.28, 0.58)points, 0.69(0.58, 0.80)points, and 0.81(0.70, 0.92)points, respectively; the values of HOS-ADL were 0.52(0.42, 0.68)points, 0.87(0.75, 0.93)points, and 0.93(0.86, 0.99)points, respectively. The scores of VAS in the hip arthroscopy + PRP group before, at 12 months after surgery and at the last follow-up were 6.00(5.00, 7.00)points, 3.00(2.00, 3.75)points, and 1.00(0.00, 2.00)points, respectively; the values of Modified Harris Hip Score were 46.50(37.00, 56.75)points, 78.00(72.00, 84.00)points, and 84.50(82.00, 88.00)points, respectively; the values of iHOT-12 were 0.42(0.26, 0.51)points, 0.66(0.58, 0.74)points, and 0.81(0.68, 0.88)points, respectively; the values of HOS-ADL were 0.54(0.38, 0.65)points, 0.87(0.72, 0.96)points, and 0.94(0.86, 1.00)points, respectively. In both groups, VAS, Modified Harris Hip Score, iHOT-12, and HOS-ADL were significantly improved at 12 months after surgery and at the last follow-up compared with those before surgery, and were further improved at the last follow-up compared with those at 12 months after surgery (all P<0.01). There were no significant differences in VAS, Modified Harris Hip Score, iHOT-12 and HOS-ADL between the two groups before, at 12 months after surgery and at the last follow-up (all P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence rates of postoperative hip pain and clicking between the two groups (both P>0.05). Conclusion:Hip arthroscopy can considerably improve short-term hip symptoms and function in FAI patients, but the use of PRP treatment after hip arthroscopy cannot further improve its short-term efficacy in FAI patients.
