OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate the efficacy of endoscopic minitrephination combined with endoscopic frontal sinusotomy in the management of complex chronic frontal sinusitis.
METHOD:
Twenty-six patients suffering from chronic frontal sinusitis with complex frontal drainage approach were analyzed. Eleven patients (13 sides) received endoscopic minitrephination combined with endoscopic frontal sinusotomy, while the other 15 patients (18 sides) received endoscopic frontal sinusotomy only. Postoperatively all cases were followed up to evaluate the efficacy.
RESULT:
The ostia of frontal sinus were successfully opened in the group of patients received endoscopic minitrephination combined with endoscopic frontal sinusotomy without any complications. In the endoscopic frontal sinusotomy only group, three cases of complications were observed, one with the injury of anterior ethmoidal artery and the other two with the injury of papyraceous lamina. After 10 to 24 months of follow up postoperatively, the symptoms were relieved in all cases without recurrence. The combined surgery group with endoscopic minitrephination showed an endoscopic frontal sinus patency rate of 85%, and the endoscopic frontal sinusotomy only group exhibited an endoscopic frontal sinus patency rate of 83%.
CONCLUSION
Endoscopic minitrephination combined with endoscopic frontal sinusotomy is a simple, convenient, safe and effective method for management of complex chronic frontal sinusitis.

Objective:
To investigate the core information about tuberculosis prevention and control knowledge among residents in Jiangxi Province, so as to provide insights into formulation of health education strategy for tuberculosis prevention and control.
Methods:
Permanent residents at ages of 15 years and older were sampled from Jiangxi Province using a multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method from January to June 2021. Participants' demographic features and access to health education for tuberculosis prevention and control were collected through questionnaires, and the awareness of core information about tuberculosis prevention and control was investigated according to Key Points for Core Information and Knowledge about Tuberculosis Prevention and Control (2016 version).
Results:
A total of 1 280 questionnaires were allocated, and 1 217 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 95.08%. The respondents included 605 men (49.71%) and 612 women (50.29%), and had a mean age of (50.05±15.78) years. The overall awareness of core information of tuberculosis prevention and control was 80.46%, and the awareness rates of “Pulmonary tuberculosis is suspected and timely healthcare-seeking is required if you have cough or expectoration for more than 2 weeks”, “Pulmonary tuberculosis is mainly transmitted via respiratory tract, and everyone is likely to be infected”, “No spit anywhere, covering mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing, and wearing a mouth mask may reduce the transmission of pulmonary tuberculosis”, “Pulmonary tuberculosis is a chronic infectious disease that poses a long-term damage to health” and “Most patients may be cured and others are avoided to be infected following standard whole-process treatment” were 90.22%, 86.52%, 85.95%, 80.03% and 59.57%, respectively. There were 491 respondents that were aware of all core information about tuberculosis prevention and control (40.35%), and network was the predominant route for acquiring health education about tuberculosis prevention and control (62.08%, 586/944).
Conclusions
The overall awareness of core information about tuberculosis prevention and control did not achieve the target set in the 13th Five-year Plan for Tuberculosis Prevention and Control, and the awareness of tuberculosis treatment-related knowledge was low.

BACKGROUND: Recently, a few studies have reported the correlation between transforming growth factor-α (TGF-α) and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD); however, the combination of TGF-α with other cytokines in patients with chronic or acute GVHD requires further study.OBJECTIVE: To analyze the changes of serum tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-4 (IL-4), and transforming growth factor-α (TGF-α) in leukemic patients after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Allo-HSCT) and investigate the effects of these cytokines on different grades of GVHD.DESIGN: Case control study.SETTING: Department of Hematology, Organ Transplantation Center, the Second Affiliated Hospital, General Hospital of Chinese PLA; Department of Nuclear Medicine, the Second Affiliated Hospital, General Hospital of Chinese PLA.PARTICIPANTS: Forty-two leukemic patients (23 males and 19 females, 16-68 years old, mean age of 35 years) who underwent Allo-HSCT for the first time were selected from the Department of Hematology, Organ Transplantation Center, the Second Affiliated Hospital, General Hospital of Chinese PLA and Department of Transplantation, the 307 Hospital of Chinese PLA from June 2005 to June 2007. Twelve patients had acute granulocytic leukemia (AGL), fifteen patients had acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL), and fifteen patients had chronic granulocytic leukemia (CGL). Among the 42 patients, 37 underwent peripheral blood transplantation and five received bone marrow transplantation. Twenty-one patients had acute GVHD (18 cases in grades Ⅰ-Ⅱ and three cases in grades Ⅲ-Ⅳ) after Allo-HSCT, but the other 21 patients did not. Fourteen patients had chronic GVHD (five cases of limited type and nine cases of extensive type), but the other 28 patients did not. An additional 30 healthy subjects (18 males and 12 females, 20-70 years old, mean age of 44 years) were collected as a normal control group. All patients provided confirmed consent, and the study was approved by the local ethics committee.METHODS: Levels of serum TNF-α, IL-4, and TGF-α in leukemic patients with Allo-HSCT and normal subjects were measured by radio-immuno-assay, the cytokines levels of the patients with/without acute GVHD, of those with/without chronic GVHD and of different grades of GVHD were compared.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Comparisons of serum TNF-α, IL-4, and TGF-α among the groups.RESULTS: All 42 leukemic patients and 30 healthy subjects were included in the final analysis. Levels of TNF-α, IL-4, and TGF-α in patients with acute or chronic GVHD were significantly higher than those in the normal subjects (P<0.05-0.01). Levels of TNF-α and IL-4 in patients without acute GVHD were significantly higher than those in the normal subjects (P<0.01,0.05). Levels of TNF-α, IL-4, and TGF-α in patients with acute GVHD were significantly higher than those in patients without acute GVHD (P<0.05). Levels of TNF-α, IL-4, and TGF-α in patients with chronic GVHD were significantly higher than those in patients without chronic GVHD (P<0.05). Levels of serum TNF-α and TGF-α in patients with acute GVHD of grades Ⅲ-Ⅳ or chronic GVHD of extensive type were significantly higher than those in patients with acute GVHD of grades Ⅰ-Ⅱ or chronic GVHD of limited type (P<0.05-0.01).CONCLUSION: After Allo-HSCT, dynamically monitoring changes of levels of TNF-α, IL-4, and TGF-α may serve as a possible means of predicting the onset of acute or chronic GVHD and may contribute considerably to deciding clinical severity of GVHD.

BACKGROUND:Intramedul ary nail and traditional steel plate fixation have been widely used in the treatment of distal tibial (extra-articular) fractures, but these two kinds of methods have shortcomings. Some control studies attempt to answer the advantages and disadvantages of the issue on the treatment of extra-articular distal tibial fractures with intramedul ary nail and steel plate fixation, but the conclusions are different.
OBJECTIVE:To determine the efficiency and safety of intramedul ary nail and plate fixation in the treatment of extra-articular distal tibial fractures by Meta analysis.
METHODS:PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, CBMdisc, Weipu information database and Wanfang were searched by computer, and relevant Chinese and English orthopedic journals were hand-searched. Control ed trials related to intramedul ary nail and plate fixation in the treatment of extra-articular distal tibial fracture were included. The quality of trials was critical y assessed. RevMan 5.0 software was used for data analysis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Four articles were included. Meta analysis showed that compared with the plate fixation, the malunion rate of the intramedul ary nail for extra-articular distal tibial fractures increased. There was no statistical difference in the rate of nonunion rate, delayed fracture healing, and infection rate after operation. These indicate that intramedul ary nail and plate fixation both have good effects on fracture healing.
