ObjectiveTo compare the efficacy between needling peri-ocular points plus abducens oculi and needling peri-ocular points alone in treating abducens paralysis, for evaluating the effectiveness and advantage of needling peri-ocular points plus abducens oculi.MethodFollowing the random number table, 86 patients with postnatal unilateral abducens oculi were divided into two groups: 43 cases in the control group were intervened by conventional acupuncture at peri-ocular points including bilateral Taiyang (EX-HN5), Cuanzhu (BL2), Fengchi (GB20), Hegu (LI4) and Waiguan (TE5), plus Baihui (GV20), Sizhukong (TE23) and Tongziliao (GB1) on the affected side; 43 cases in the treatment group were intervened by acupuncture at peri-ocular points and abducens oculi, i.e. to puncture the abducens oculi (1~3 mm behind the attached point of the extrarectus to eyeball) in addition to the treatment given to the control group. After 3 treatment courses, the total effective rate, average recovery time and improvement of strabismus angle were observed.ResultThe total effective rate was 93.0% in the treatment group, significantly higher than 81.4%in the control group (P<0.05); of the 28 cured patients in the treatment group, the average recovery time was (34.51±7.91)d, versus (41.88±7.87)d in the 22cured patients in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). There was a significant difference in comparing the improvement of strabismus angle between the two groups (P<0.01); after treatment, the strabismus angle was (11.23±6.32)° in the treatment group versus (14.14±6.85)° in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).ConclusionNeedling peri-ocular points and abducens oculi can improve the strabismus angle, shorten treatment duration and reduce patient’s sufferings in treating postnatal abducens paralysis, significantly superior to conventional acupuncture at peri-ocular points.

Objective To summarize the experience in the management of incarcerated umbilical hernia in cirrhotic patients with aseites. Methods The operative methods, perioperative management and fellow-up data of 15 patients diagnosed incarcerated umbilical hernia in the setting of cirrhosis and ascites were studied retrospectively. All the patients underwent emergency operation to remove necrotic umbilical skin and hernial content, including incarcerated greater omentum (6 cases) and strangulated segment of small bowel (5 cases). After debriding the operating field thoroughly, the umbilical hernia was repaired with polypropylene mesh, among those Sublay repair was used in 11 cases with the longest diameter of hernial ring more than 3 cm and Onlay repair in 4 cases with the longest diameter of hernial ring less than 3 cm. During the perioperative period, albumin and fresh frozen plasma transfusion, as well as diuresis and ascites paracentesis, was adopted to treat eirrhosis and ascites. Results All the patients underwent operation successfully. The operative time was 90～185 min, averaging at 122 min. Seroma formation in 2 cases and incision infection in one were cured with conservative therapy. One patient died of multiple organ dysfunction after the operation. During the fellow-up of 1～5 years, 1 patient died of liver function failure and there was no hernia recurrence. Conclusion With appropriate perioperative management and correct operative method, polypropylene mesh could be adopted in the emergency repair operation of incarerated umbilical hernia in the setting of cirrhosis and ascites.

Objective To assess quantitatively the association between smoking and the risk of disease and death from pulmonary tuberculosis(TB) by a meta-analysis. Methods Both Chinese and English literatures published from Jan. 1999 to Jun. 2010 about the case-control study of the association between smoking and pulmonary TB were retrieved by searching the electronic resource databases. A meta-analysis was then performed on the comparison and synthesis of findings from included studies. Pooled odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated using a software RevMan 4.2. Finally,possible publication bias was tested and a sensitivity analysis was conducted. Results The meta-analysis for total 22 high-quality case-control studies found a pooled OR of 2.56 (95% CI 1. 80 ～3.64) with a random-effects model. Sensitivity analysis showed that pooled OR was 2.56 (95% 1.76 ～3.71 ) by removing two papers of nested case-control study. The OR were 2.13 (95% CI1.76～2.58) and 4.60 (95% CI 1.81～11.69) for disease and death from TB,respectively. After confounding factors,including age and gender,had been controlled the OR was 2.53 (95% CI 1.27 ～5.03 ) whereas 1. 99(95% CI 1.54 ～ 2.56 ) without control of them. Conclusion Smoking can increase the risk of incidence and death of TB. TB control programs and treatment of patients might benefit from interventions aimed at reducing tobacco exposure.
