Objective To compare the values of the mangled extremity syndrome index (MESI), the mangled extremity severity score (MESS) and the limb salvage index (LSI) in deciding amputation or salvage in the management of the mangled extremity syndrome (MES). Methods Clinical data of 353 MES patients including 95 with amputation and 258 with salvage admitted in recent eight years were retrospectively evaluated by using MESI, MESS and LSI, the value of which in deciding amputation or salvage was assessed with receiver operating characteristic ( ROC ). Results There was statistical difference in aspect of mean scores of three grading systems between patients with amputation or salvage (P＜0. 01). For MESI, MESS and LSI, the sensitivities was 89.47%, 85.26% and 83.15% respectively, the specificities was 100%, 96.89% and 96.12% respectively, the coincidence was 97.16%,93.76% and 92.63% respectively, the areas under ROC curves was 0. 924, 0905 and 0. 861 respectively and the cut-off points were equal or over 20, 7 and 6 respectively. Conclusions Three scoring systems are all highly capable of predicting early amputation or not in MES management. The MESI is recommended as a quantitative criterion for determining amputation or salvage.

Objective To investigate the concentration of S-100 protein presenting in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood serum in patients with Guillain-Barr? syndrome (GBS), and discuss the value of assessment in measuring S-100 protein level to Schwann′s cell insult. Methods S-100 beta protein was measured dynamically by ELISA in CSF and blood serum from 50 patients with GBS and 22 referencesThe patients were divided into two categories by disease severity: the severe group and the mild groupMeanwhile, CSF cytology was also detected. Results (1) The level of CSF S-100 beta protein in both severe and mild groups were higher than that of the control group (P0.05)(2) The percentage of CSF monocyte in severe group was higher than that of the mild and the control groups(P0.05)(3) There was a dynamic change of CSF S-100 beta protein level in GBS patients correlated with the percentage of CSF monocyte and the severity of disease. Conclusions CSF and blood serum S-100 beta protein level in patients with GBS may be related to the severity of the disease.

In order to explore the value of assessment in measuring S-100 beta protein (S-100B protein) and neuron-specific enolase (NSE) present in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from patients with brain insult in central nervous system infections, S-100B protein and NSE in CSF were measured dynamically by ELISA in 42 patients with Herpes Simplex Encephalitis (USE), 19 patients with purulent meningitis, 17 patients with cryptococcus meningitis and 22 unrelated control patients. It was found that the levels of CSF S-100B protein in all the three groups were higher than that of the control group (P0. 05). There were dynamic changes of CSF S-100B protein and NSE concentrations in all three groups correlating with the severity of disease. It is suggested that elevated concentrations of S-100B protein and NSE in CSF related to the damage of glia and neurons could be used as CSF markers of brain insult in patients with central nervous system infections.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of acellular allogenic dermis combined with split-thickness autogenous skin graft for coverage of wound in extremity joint. Methods After contraction scar, giant pigmented nevus and capillary hemangioma being removed, acellular allogenic dermis with split-thickness autogenous skin graft was used to repair 25 cases of wounds of elbow, ankle, knee and wrist joints. The area of wounds was from 7cm?11cm to 12cm?19cm. Out of 25 wounds, there were 4 in wrist, 8 in elbow, 7 in ankle and 6 in knee joints. The survival rate of graft skin and improvement degree of joint function were observed. Results All grafts survived and had the smooth surface without obvious pigmentation and wound contraction. The function of joint was significantly improved after operation. Conclusion Tissue-engineered dermis with autogenous epithelium is an ideal graft for coverage of various wounds in extremity joint.

ObjectiveTo assess activated carbon in the standard lymphadenectomy of gastric cancer.Methods183 cases undergoing radical gastrectomy before 1997 served as control group,87 consecutive cases after 1997 received intumour injection of activated carbon(AC) before undergoing gastrectomy.The areas and number of dissected lymph nodes,operative complication and hospital stay in subtotal gastrectomy and total gastrectomy were analyzed respectively.ResultsIn subtotal gastrectomy,the ratio of D 1 ,D 2 ,D 3 and D 3 +PAL over the total cases was 4 7%,10 3%,14 9% and 16 1% respectively in AC group and 25 7%,21 3%,9 9% and 2 7% respectively in control group.In total gastrectomy,the ratio of D 1 ,D 2 ,D 3 and D 3 +PAL was 3 4%,5 7%,21 9% and 23% respectively in AC group and 15 8%,14 8%,8 7% and 1 1% respectively in control group.The differences of the four procedures were all statistically significant between the two groups.The number of dissected lymph nodes in each case in AC group was more than that of control group.ConclusionsLocal injection of activated carbon is a simple,easy and safe method to increase the dissection of lymph nodes in radical gastrectomy.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of low energy intracardiac cardioversion in persistent atrial fibrillation. Methods Low energy intracardiac cardioversion was performed by delivering R wave synchronized biphasic shocks in 7 patients(4 men, 3 women) with persistent atrial fibrillation. Prior to the procedure, all patients underwent transesophageal echocardiographic examinations to rule out the presence of intracardiac thrombus and received subcutaneous injection of low molecular weight heparin for 3 5 days. Two custom made 6 Fr catheters(Rhythm Technologies of Getz, USA) were used for de fibrillation shock delivery. One catheter was positioned in the lower right atrium so that the majority of the catheter electrodes had firm contact with the right atrial free wall. The second catheter was placed randomly either in coronary sinus through right internal jugular vein or in the left pulmonary artery through femoral vein. In addition, a standard diagnostic 6 F quadropolar catheter was placed at the right ventricular apex for ventricular synchronization and postshock ventricular pacing. Shocks were delivered by Implant Support Device(Model 4510, Teleceronics). After conversion, all patients were treated with intravenous amiodarone in the first 24 hours followed by oral administration. Results In all 7 patients cardioversion of atrial fibrillation to sinus rhythm was successfully obtained. A mean of 2?1 shocks per patient has been delivered with a total amount of 13 shocks. The average delivered energy was 7.8?2.2 Joules. No complication occurred. At a mean follow up of 18?9 months, 4 of the 7 patients treated successfully showed sinus rhythm there after. Atrial fibrillation recurred in 3 patients at the second, fifth day and eighth month after cardioversion. Conclusions Low energy intracardiac cardioversion is effective and safe, and can be easily performed in patients without geneal anesthesia. It offers a new option for restoring sinus rhythm in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation.

Objective: To study the epidemiological of social anxiety disorder in pupils of Zhanjiang urban districts. Methods:2409 pupils from 5 elementary schools in Zhanjiang city completed the SASC. Those with a total score higher than 2 standard deviation away from the mean were interviewed. SADC was diagnosed according to the standard of CCMD-3.Results:The overall prevalence rate of SADC was 2.74 in Zhanjiang urban districts, prevalence rate for boys was 2.6, while 2.9 for girls. No sex difference was found (?~2=0.11,P=0.744). There was no significant difference among different grades (?~2=5.47,P=0.361).Conclusions:SADC exists in pupils of Zhanjiang city, we should pay more attention to this disorder for children's mental health.

Objective To evaluate the modified Physical and Operative Severity Score for the Enumera-tion of Mortality and Morbidity (POSSUM) in predicting the postoperative morbidity in patients with fractures of the pelvis and acetabulum. Methods The clinical data of 94 patients with pelvic and acetabular fractures were retrospectively analyzed. Their postoperative prognosis during hospital stay was evaluated with the POSSUM scoring system modified according to the features of orthopedics and pelvic and acetabular fractures. The peritoneum in-fection in the severity index of operation was replaced by operative approach, the several operations at one time by operative duration, and the cancer by the associated injury. The size and type of operation were made into 4 grades with corresponding orthopedic scores. The scores were compared between the complication group and the non-complication group. The receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to describe the coincidence degree, define the cut points, and evaluate its predicting capability. Results The mean preoperative physi-ological score (PS) and operative severity score (OS) in the complication group (38 cases) were significantly higher than those in the noncomptication (56 cases) (17.26 ± 2.84 vs 16.04 ± 2.77; 19.50 ± 5. 14 vs 13.00 ±3.81 ) ( P ＜ 0.05) . In the modified POSSUM, the area under ROC curve was 0. 856, the cut point 43%, sen-sitivity 73.68%, specificity 80. 36%, and coincidence degree 77.66%. Conclusions Since the modified POSSUM scoring system has a high capability of predicting postoperative morbidity for fractures of the pelvis and acetabulum, it can be helpful for surgeons to lower operative risks and ensure safety in operation. When the score is higher than the cut point, the risk is too great for an operation. Therefore, the fracture should be treated non-operatively or mini-invasively until the score is lower than the cut point.
