Objective To study the application of contact oxidization and hydrolysis acidifying technology in hospital wastewater treatment. Methods Hydrolysis combined with chlorine dioxide disinfection was used in the engineering of treatment. Results Even if CODCr was 300 mg/L, BOD5 was 150 mg/L, SS was 300 mg/L, pH was 6-9 and large intestine bacteria number was 50 000/L, the wastewater quality met the requirement of related standard after treated with the present method. Conclusion The present technology was efficient, practical and economical.

Compared with hip replacement, internal fixation in the treatment of the elderly femoral neck fracture, especially the application of cannulated screws, is minimally invasive, easy to operate and economical. In recent years, it becomes the research focus in the field of orthopedic clinical research. However, configuration of cannulated screws is still controversial. Most clinicians believe that three cannulated screws being placed in parallel in an inverted triangle configuration is better than that in a triangular configuration in biomechanics and clinical effect. Nonparallel strong oblique nailing technique allows the screws to share more weight to reduce postoperative complications, so that it is more suitable for elderly patients with osteoporosis. However, the related complications of internal fixation such as nonunion, femoral neck shortening and other problems are still the focus of domestic and foreign scholars. Issues about how to control the indication of internal fixation surgery, understand related factors of the complications, and prevent complications are required to be further explored.

Objective To compare the clinical outcomes between oblique and non-oblique fixation with cannulated screws for femoral neck fractures in the elderly patients.Methods Totally 189 patients of over 65 years old were treated for femoral neck fracture from June 2007 to October 2013 at our department.Oblique fixation with cannulated screws was used in 130 cases.They were 43 males aud 87 females with an average age of 77.8 ± 7.5 years.According to Garden classification,40 cases were of Garden types Ⅰ and Ⅱ (undisplaced fractures),and 90 of Garden types Ⅲ and Ⅳ (displaced fractures).Of them 26 were Pauwells type Ⅲ.Non-oblique fixation with cannulated screws was conducted in 59 cases.They were 24 males and 35 females with an average age of 75.5 ± 8.2 years.According to Garden classification,12 cases were of Garden types Ⅰ and Ⅱ (undisplaced fractures),and 47 of Garden types Ⅲ and Ⅳ (displaced fractures).Of them,15 were Pauwells type Ⅲ.The fracture union,postoperative complications,rate of reoperation and Harris scores at the last follow-up were compared between the 2 groups.Results All the 189 patients were followed up for 10 to 38 months (average,17.4 months).The oblique fixation led to a union rate of 99.2％ (129/130),a fixation failure rate of 3.1％ (4/130) and a femoral head necrosis rate of 2.3％ (3/130),which were not significantly different from those resulted from the non-oblique fixation [98.3％ (58/59),10.2％ (6/59) and 5.1％ (3/59) respectively] (P ＞ 0.05).However,the rate of femoral neck shortening [35.4％ (46/130)] and the reoperation rate [3.1％ (4/130)] in the oblique fixation group were significantly lower than those in the non-oblique fixation group [50.8％ (30/59) and 15.3％ (9/59) respectively] (P ＜ 0.05).The mean Harris hip score at the last follow-up for the oblique fixation(75.7 ± 14.3) was significantly higher than that for the non-oblique fixation (70.8 ± 16.7) (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion As oblique cannulated screwing can reduce the rates of femoral neck shortening and reoperation to some extent,it may be a better fixation choice than the non-oblique cannulated screwing for femoral neck fracture in elderly patients.

The treatment of multiple myeloma has become possible in the era of novel agents. Novel agents have dramatically improved the response rates of multiple myeloma (MM) and have extended the survival of patients even if MM remains an incurable disease. De-termining the treatment goals of MM has become a major challenge for clinicians in the era of novel agents. Many results show the correlation between response depth and patients' survival. Complete remission (CR), stringent CR, phenotypic CR, and CRs at the molecular and PET-CT levels are being explored and becoming the goals of MM treatment. Doctors should balance efficacy with adverse effects in daily clinical practice to avoid the blind pursuit of a high and deep response rate.

Objective To explore the measurement of femoral neck shortening (FNS) after cannulated screwing for elderly femoral neck fractures and the effect of FNS on hip functional outcome.Methods Totally 214 elderly patients with femoral neck fracture were included in this study who had been treated by fixation with cannulated screws from June 2007 to October 2013.They were 71 males and 143 females,with an average age of 77.2 years.According to Garden classification system,65 cases were types Ⅰ and Ⅱ (undisplaced fractures),and 149 types Ⅲ and Ⅳ (displaced fractures).The postoperative X-ray and follow-up X-ray films were compared to observe whether the trailing end of screw shaft was exposed to the outer cortex of the proximal femur.We chose the screw which had the longest exposure of trailing end to measure the length of the exposed screw shaft as the length of FNS.FNS indexes were defined according to the ratio of the length of exposed screw shaft to the thickness of screw head.FNS degree 1:＜ 1 screw head; FNS degree 2:1 to 2 screw heads; FNS degree 3:＞ 2 screw heads.The relationships of the FNS length respectively with thefemur length decrease and Harris scores of hip functional outcome were analyzed statistically.Results FNS occurred in 78 cases,giving an incidence of FNS of 36.4％ (78/214).Of them,12 cases (15.4％)were defined as degree 1,24 cases (30.8％) as degree 2,and 42 cases (53.8％) as degree 3.There was a significant positive correlation between the FNS length and the femur length decrease(r =0.919,P =0.000).The average Harris score at 12 months postoperation for 180 cases was 77.3 points (ranging from 32 to 98 points).The average Harris score for those with FNS was significantly lower than that for those without FNS (t =9.904,P =0.000).There was a significant negative correlation between the FNS length and Harris scores (r =-0.707,P =0.000).Conclusions Our measurement of FNS and FNS indexes are easy to be used in clinic.Severe FNS can influence the function of hip joint.

gress. A growing body of research has committed to exploring more thrombolytic regimens. This article reviews the main methods, drugs and recent progress in thrombolytic therapy.

Dilatative arteriopathy is also called Dolichoectasia, presenting as enlarged ,tortuous ,and dilated arteries; especially with involvement of intracranial arteries. The incidence of dolichoectasia is quite low, but it may induce recurrent strokes with poor prognosis and up to now there is no specific management. Our study reviews the potential etiology, epidemiology, symptoms, pathophysiology, prognosis and present status of treatment for dolichoectasia.
