BACKGROUND:There is no unified method for treatment of intertrochanteric fracture. Previous dynamic hip screw fixation has some shortcomings, and is gradual y replaced by intramedul ary nail fixation. interTan is a compression interlocking intramedul ary nail designed by Smith Nephew in USA according the characteristics of intertrochanteric fracture. Unique design of pressurized screw thread has control able linear pressure. Moreover, it has the stability of Z-effect anti-rotation.
OBJECTIVE:To analyze the clinical therapeutic effects and superiority of interTan compression interlocking intramedul ary nail for intertrochanteric fracture.
METHODS:A total of 60 patients with intertrochanteric fracture undergoing interTan compression interlocking intramedul ary nail in the Department of Orthopedics, Beijing Chaoyang Emergency Rescue Center from January 2011 to December 2012 were enrol ed in the experimental group. A total of 60 patients with intertrochanteric fractures receiving dynamic hip screw fixation in the Department of Orthopedics, Beijing Chaoyang Emergency Rescue Center from January 2009 to December 2010 were enrol ed in the control group.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Peri-operative bleeding volume, postoperative ambulation time, numerical rating scale score, radiographic healing time and weight-bearing time in the experimental group were lower than those of control group. At 3, 6 months and 1 year after fixation, Harris score and hospital for special surgery knee score were higher in the experimental group than in the control group. These data indicated that compared with dynamic hip screw, interTan compression interlocking intramedul ary nail has unique stability due to its design. Internal fixation can reduce operation trauma, promote fracture healing and improve joint function, and exhibit good clinical therapeutic effects for intertrochanteric fractures.

Objective To analyze the genetic characteristics of mumps virus ( MuV) isolated from an outbreak in Henan province in 2016 and to provide reference data for the control of mumps in Henan prov-ince. Methods Swab specimens were collected from a mumps outbreak in Henan province in 2016. One virus strain was selected for whole genome sequencing after virus isolation and genotyping. MEGA7. 0 soft-ware was used to construct phylogenetic tree, to calculate P-distance and to analyze the characteristics of genes encoding small hydrophobic protein ( SH ) , fusion protein ( F ) and hemagglutinin neuraminidase ( HN) . Results Five swab specimens were collected in the outbreak and five MuV strains were successfully obtained. Phylogenetic analysis showed that all of them belonged to genotype F with a P-distance of 0. 047 (0. 046-0. 049 ) with the reference strain. The P-distance among the five MuV strains was 0. 001 ( 0-0. 003). Results of the whole genome sequencing of one MuV strain showed that the P-distance with the ref-erence virus was 0. 053 (0. 018-0. 072) and the smallest P-distance with genotype F was 0. 018. Compared with the vaccine strain (HQ416907. 1), the amino acid at 28-30 site of SH protein was IML. The 91, 195 and 383 amino acid sites in F protein were related to the pathogenicity of MuV, but no mutations were found in these sites. Some mutations were found in HN protein, such as P354Q, E356D and K464N, which were associated with the immunological characteristics of MuV. Conclusions MuV strains isolated from the out-break in Henan province in 2016 belonged to genotype F. The genetic characteristics of these MuV strains were similar to those prevalent in other provinces of China.

OBJECTIVEIn this randomized, open-label, multicenter, angiographic trial, we compared the efficacy and safety of tenecteplase (TNK-tPA) with alteplase (rt-PA) in Chinese patients with acute myocardial infarction.
METHODPatients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction and pain to hospital time within 6 hours from October 2002, to March 2004 were randomly assigned a body weight-adjusted bolus of TNK-tPA (0.53 mg/kg over more than 10 s, n = 58) or front loaded rt-PA (< or = 100 mg, n = 52). Coronary angiography was performed at 90 min after initiating study drugs. All patients received aspirin and heparin (target activated partial thromboplastin time: 50-70 s). The primary end point of the trial was the rate of TIMI grade 3 flow at 90 minutes. Other end points included the rate of TIMI grade 2/3 flow at 90 minutes, all cause mortality at 30 days, the moderate/severe hemorrhage without intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) and ICH within 30 days.
RESULTSTIMI grade 3 flow at 90 minutes (68.4% vs. 66.7%, P = 1.00), TIMI grade 2 or 3 at 90 minutes (89.5% vs. 80.4%, P = 0.278), total mortality at 30 days (13.8% vs. 9.6%, P = 0.565), the rate of moderate/severe hemorrhage (8.6% vs. 5.8%, P = 0.72) and incidence of ICH (3.5% vs. 1.9%, P = 1.00) were all similar in TNK-tPA treated patients compared to rt-PA treated patients.
CONCLUSIONThe efficacy of single-bolus, weight-adjusted TNK-tPA fibrinolytic regimen is equivalent to front-loaded alteplase in terms of the rates of TIMI grade 3 flow, TIMI 2 or 3 flow. Incidences of moderate/severe hemorrhage, ICH and 30-days mortality were similar in TNK-tPA and rt-PA treated patients.

Premature ejaculation (PE) is the most common male sexual dysfunction with a high incidence, which seriously affects the relationship between a husband and wife and family harmony. Drug therapy is a first-line treatment for PE patients with premature ejaculation, and has achieved good efficacy, but the clinically available drugs are single and the abandonment rate is high. Coupled with the ineffective treatment of some patients, new drug research and development is imminent. This paper systematically reviews the current status of drug treatment for premature ejaculation, focusing on the research and development of new drugs and research progress in order to provide a reference for clinicians.

BACKGROUNDThe emergency department (ED) has a pivotal influence on the management of acute heart failure (AHF), but data concerning current ED management are scarce. This Beijing AHF Registry Study investigated the characteristics, ED management, and short- and long-term clinical outcomes of AHF.
METHODSThis prospective, multicenter, observational study consecutively enrolled 3335 AHF patients who visited 14 EDs in Beijing from January 1, 2011, to September 23, 2012. Baseline data on characteristics and management were collected in the EDs. Follow-up data on death and readmissions were collected until November 31, 2013, with a response rate of 92.80%. The data were reported as median (interquartile range) for the continuous variables, or as number (percentage) for the categorical variables.
RESULTSThe median age of the enrolled patients was 71 (58-79) years, and 46.84% were women. In patients with AHF, coronary heart disease (43.27%) was the most common etiology, and myocardium ischemia (30.22%) was the main precipitant. Most of the patients in the ED received intravenous treatments, including diuretics (79.28%) and vasodilators (74.90%). Fewer patients in the ED received neurohormonal antagonists, and 25.94%, 31.12%, and 33.73% of patients received angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin receptor blockers, beta-blockers, and spironolactone, respectively. The proportions of patients who were admitted, discharged, left against medical advice, and died were 55.53%, 33.58%, 7.08%, and 3.81%, respectively. All-cause mortalities at 30 days and 1 year were 15.30% and 32.27%, respectively.
CONCLUSIONSSubstantial details on characteristics and ED management of AHF were investigated. The clinical outcomes of AHF patients were dismal. Thus, further investigations of ED-based therapeutic approaches for AHF are needed.
