Objective To analyze retrospectively the results of closed reduction and static transarticular fixation with unilateral external fixators in the treatment of severely comminuted distal radius fractures caused by high-energy injuries. Methods From June 2000 to June 2003, 20 patients with 24 severely comminuted distal radius fractures were treated with closed reduction and static transarticular fixation with unilateral external fixator. The injuries involved 16 males and 4 females, the age of the patients was from 15 to 48 years (average 33.4 years). All fractures were classified as Frykman's type Ⅷ or AO type C3. The operative technique consisted of reduction of the fractures by manipulation or assisted with the external fixator, then fixed them statically. The mean duration of the union was 7.4 weeks (ranged from 6-8 weeks). After the fixator removal, the patients were encouraged to proceed for the rehabilitations, such as the elbow flexion-extension, radial abduction, ulnar adduction, and the pronation as well as the supination of the forearm. Results All patients were available at the final follow-up, the mean duration was 16 months (range, 6-42 months). At the last examination, the radiological manifestations revealed excellent in 21 fractures (17 patients) and good in 3 (3 patients) according to the Sarmiento scoring system (modified by Stewart); and the functional results displaied excellent in 16 (13 patients), good in 6 (5 patients) and fair in 2 (2 patients) according to Gartland-Werley functional assessment system. There were only 2 cases of superficial pin site infection cured with oral antibiotics and local care with mild disinfectants. 7 obvious defect of mataphysis occurred in 5 patients, but the fractures united simultaneously without any additional treatment. And there was no any complication, such as pin tract infection, fixator loosening, iatrogenic fracture and injury of the superficial radial nerve. Conclusion The technique of closed reduction by manipulations or external fixators combined with static transarticular fixation plus unilateral external fixators is an effective method for the treatment of severely comminuted distal radius fracture caused by high-energy injuries, such as falling from the height. It is unnecessary to apply supplementary bone grafts to promote bone healing. The complications can be avoided by selecting the right sites for the insertion of the pins, which is beneficial for the hand to mobilize earlier after operation.

Objective To study the injuries of avulsion and severance of upper extremity caused by flexion and rotation and application of tissues of chest side and back in functional reconstruction of the upper extremity. Methods The primary or fosterage replantations were performed from 2000 July to 2003 September for 6 cases of the injuries of avulsion and severance of upper extremity caused by flexion and rotation. After the operation, the shoulder joint was immobilized at abduction of 90 degrees and elbow joint was fixated at inflexion of 100 degrees. 4 weeks later, the fixation was removed and the regular functional training was started. Results Follow-ups ranging from 3 months to 2 years revealed that all the cases of replantation were successful. After operation, the shoulder joint could abduct 50?~90?, anteflect 50?~70?, extend backwards 20?~30?, and adduct 20?~40?. The elbow joint could flex 100?~140?and extend -20?~0?. 3 months after reconstruction, the muscle strength of elbow flexion recovered to Ⅳ~Ⅴdegrees. Conclusion Application of tissues of chest side and back to repair avulsion and severance of upper extremity stage by stages and layer by layer is an ideal method to resolve the contradiction between wound coverage and functional reconstruction because it can restore both the function and appearance.

Objective To elucidate the efficacy and safety of transcatheter closure of secondary atrial septal defect (ASD) with Amplatzer septal occluder (ASO) in people over 50 years of age. Methods Retrospective comparison of 41 patients (14 males, 27 females) with ASD over 50 years of age ranging from 50 to 75(mean age 55.5?7.6, elder group) was conducted with 132 patients younger than 50 years(control group). After diagnosis of ASDs and evaluation of pulmonary artery systolic pressure and right atrial and ventricular dimensions by transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), all patients underwent transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) for complete assessment of ASD size, margins and anatomic relationship of the defect before closure of ASD. Each case was treated with ASO through the percutaneous transcatheter procedure under fluoroscopy and TTE or TEE. Early follow up(3 months) by echo was taken after the intervention. Results There was no difference of mean defect diameter measured by TEE and the balloon-stretched defect diameter of the ASDs between 2 groups. Pulmonary artery pressures in elder group were higher than those in younger group(P

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of purging fu-organs traditional Chinese medicine (TCM)therapy for treatment of patients with severe pneumonia and sthenia-heat. Methods According to random number table method,71 patients with sthenia-heat of severe pneumonia were divided into a treatment group (35 cases)and a control group(36 cases). Conventional basic treatment was given to both groups,and additionally, small chengqi decoction was applied nasogastrically for the therapy in treatment group for 2 weeks. The clinical pulmonary infection score(CPIS),Marshall score,integration score of TCM syndromes and the mortalities in 28 days and 60 days were used to compare the clinical efficacy of the two groups. Results With the prolongation of treatment,the CPIS,Marshall score and integration score of syndromes in the two groups were gradually decreased. In treatment group,CPIS and Marshall scores were lower than those of control group on the 4th day ,and there were statistically significant differences(CPIS score:5.8±1.7 vs. 6.8±1.9,Marshall score:5.3±2.3 vs. 6.6±2.7,both P<0.05);the above 2 scores in treatment group were also lower than those of control group on the 7th and 14th day after treatment(7th day CPIS score:5.3±1.5 vs. 5.6±1.4,Marshall score:5.1±1.9 vs. 5.7±1.8;14th day CPIS score:3.9±1.7 vs. 4.4±2.3,Marshall score:4.2±1.9 vs. 4.9±2.5),but there were no statistically significant differences(all P>0.05). In addition,the integration scores of syndromes were significantly decreased on the 4th, 7th and 14th day in the treatment group significantly lower than those in the control group(4th day:7.6±2.3 vs. 10.6±2.7,7th day:7.4±2.5 vs. 9.2±2.1,14th day:6.1±1.9 vs. 8.3±2.4,all P<0.05). However,there were no statistically significant differences in mortality rates in 28 days and 60 days respectively between control group and treatment group(28 days:16.7% vs. 11.4%,60 days:25.0% vs. 20.3%,both P>0.05). Conclusion Purging fu-organs therapy not only can decrease the CPIS and Marshall scores of patients with sthenia-heat of severe pneumonia,but also can improve their syndromes.

Objective:To use an isokinetic test to objectively evaluate the recovery of muscle strength and endurance after treatment of acute Achilles tendon rupture using a tunnel beneath paratenon.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted of the 23 patients who had been treated at Department of Orthopedics, The Forth Medical Center, General Hospital of Chinese PLA by a tunnel beneath paratenon for acute Achilles tendon rupture from January 2017 to January 2018. They were 22 males and one female, aged from 26 to 60 years (average, 35.7 years), with 11 right and 12 left sides involved. Surgery was performed 0.5 to 7.0 days (average, 2.7 days) after injury. Length of incision, skin necrosis, infection, re-rupture, ankle-hindfoot score of American Orthopedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) and Achilles tendon total rupture scores (ATRS) were followed up for 18 months. Surgical outcomes were objectively evaluated by an isokinetic test to compare the recovery of muscle strength and endurance between the affected and normal sides.Results:Skin necrosis, infection or re-rupture occurred in none of the patients. Incision length averaged 1.4 cm (from 1 to 2 cm), AOFAS 99.1 (from 93 to 100, giving an excellent and good rate of 100%), and ATRS 97.0 (from 88 to 100). Isokinetic evaluation showed that the peak torques of ankle plantar flexion and dorsal extension at 5 test speeds (30°/s, 60°/s, 90°/s, 120°/s and 240°/s) were not significantly different between the affected and normal sides ( P>0.05). In the endurance test, the total work of ankle plantar flexion was (691.2±258.8) J on the normal side and (670.6±304.2) J on the affected side, showing no significant difference between the 2 sides ( P>0.05); the total work of ankle dorsal extension at the normal side was (407.3±119.2) J, significantly larger than that at the affected side [(362.2±117.5) J] ( P=0.001). Conclusion:An isokinetic test can be used to objectively evaluate the recovery of muscle strength and endurance after treatment of acute Achilles tendon rupture using a tunnel beneath paratenon.

BACKGROUND: Quantitative pharmaco-electroencephalography (QPEEG) can reflect cerebral cortical function, which can be certainly affected by general anesthetics. Anesthesia depth has good correlation with the anesthetic dosage, so if we can find out the areas of brain and band of QPEEG which is relative to the anesthetic dosage, the band may be taken as the index to reflect the depth of anesthesia. OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of propofol on the alpha2-band (α2- band) of QPEEG in rabbits. DESIGN: A randomized control animal experiment. SETTING: Jiangsu Provincial Key Laboratory of Anesthesiology, Xuzhou Medical College. MATERIALS: The experiment was carried out in the animal laboratory of Xuzhou Medical College from October 2004 to August 2005. Thirtysix healthy adult rabbits were randomly divided into propofol 2.5, 5 and 10 mg/kg groups with 12 rabbits in each, including 6 were used to observe the change of percentage of each band power of QPEEG, and the other 6 were used to observe the latency and duration for the disappearance of righting reflex in the rabbits. METHODS: The experiment was performed between 14:00-17:00 every day. Rabbits in the three groups were treated with intravenous injection of propofol of 2.5, 5 and 10 mg/kg respectively within 30 seconds. ① The conscious rabbits were fixed onto the platform in a prone osition, and the QPEEG was recorded with the method of power spectrum analysis before administration and at 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100 and 110 s and 2, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 30 minutes after administration respectively. The sampling time for each time point was 5 s. ② The latency and duration for the disappearance of righting reflex in the rabbits were recorded. RESULTS: ll the 36 rabbits were involved in the analysis of esults. ① After the intravenous injection of propofol, the righting reflexes all disappeared within 1 minute. The greater the dosage, the shorter the latency and the longer the duration r=0.79, P < 0.01). ② Compared with before administration, propofol of 2.5 mg/kg had no obvious influence on the percentage of α2-band power (P > 0.05); The percentages of α2-band power in the brain areas were increased after administration in the propofol 5 mg/kg group (P < 0.05); Except that there were no significant differences in the left and right parietal regions between the propofol 10 mg/kg group and the propofol 5 mg/kg group, the percentages of α2-band power in the other brain areas in the propofol 10 mg/kg group were decreased as compared with those before administration and those in the other two groups (P < 0.05), and the changes above were more obvious in the frontal and temporal regions.CONCLUSION: The influence of propofol on the percentage of α2-band power of QPEEG is biphasic, it is suggested that α2-band would be an index to reflect the anesthesia depth of propofol.
