Objective:To investigate the pain in patients during the early stages of recovery from maxillofacial surgery under general anaesthesia.Methods: One hundred patients as participants to respone the questionaire of postoperative pain 24 hours after operation. The data of pain intensity,analgesia requirement and the reason for operation of the patients were collected and analyzed. Results: Among the 100 cases, 92 with moderate or slight postoperative pain, 8 with severe pain. It is significant more severe pain (14.3%)in the group of bone fracture than that (less than 8.7%) in other groups. Conclusion: Most patients 24 h after maxillofacial surgery are with moderate and slight pain. The pain intensity relates with type of maxillofacial surgery.

ObjectiveTo study the effects of dexamethasone local injection as an adjunctive therapy for Hashimoto thyroiditis (HT). Methods60 HT cases were equally divided into 2 groups at random. The patients in the control group were given euthyrpx while the patients in the treated group were injected dexamethasone in addition to the medicine used in the control group. The thyroid characters such as thickness, lymphocytic infiltration and changes of thyroid follicle were observed. The patients were followed up before treatment and 4, 12, 24weeks and 1 year after treatment. ResultsIn the treatment group, all thyroid glands turned significantly softer,and the mass became smaller compared with that in the control group. The pathology of thyroids indicated that lymphocytic infiltration decreased, local immune reaction was ameliorated, and no obvious hormone side effects were observed. ConclusionLocal use of dexamethasone can modify the structure and function of thyroid.

To perform an evaluation of the on-going prospective clinical trials on particle radiation therapy and their impact on the current clinical practice as well as future clinical research and development.Furthermore,to briefly present the results of the registration trial of the IONTRIS particle therapy system at the Shanghai Proton and Heavy Ion Center.We used data from the clinicaltrials,gov and the Particle Therapy Collaborative Organization Group (PTCOG) website.After excluding retrospective and in silico studies,we examined and analyzed the prospective clinical trials for their ion type,targeting disease site,and nature.At the time of this analysis,149 prospective trials were identified on proton and carbon-ion radiation therapy,including 20 were carbon-ion and 129 trials were proton radiation focused,respectively.Except for 15 randomized phase Ⅱ/Ⅲ and Ⅲ trials,134 trials were phase 0-Ⅱ trials.Tumors from nearly all body parts were covered by the on-going trials,but trials on pediatric,GI,lung,prostate,and breast cancer account for the majority.The majority of the currently on-going trials focus on the efficacy and adverse-effects of the new dose/fractionation schemes of particle therapy as well as the use of particle therapy on new indications.Few studies invcstigate the addition of adjuvant therapy or imaging technology used in adjunct with particle therapy.Randomized trials that compare particle radiation therapy versus photon radiation is relatively uncommon.Despite the prevailing use of proton and heavy-ion radiation therapy for cancer treatment,～ 150 prospective clinical trials associated with particle radiation therapy are identified.As the majority of trials aim to investigate more efficacious dose/fractionation and the application of particle therapy on new indications,improved outcome from and expanded utilization of particle radiation therapy can be expected.

OBJECTIVE To understand the status quo for hospital infection hospital infection to provide a scientific basis. METHODS A cross-sectional survey was taken combined with the hospital bedside investigation and records investigation. RESULTS In 1033 cases,the prevalence rate was 3.87%,and the infected sites were the respiratory site,superficial incision,skin and soft tissue. Utilization rate of anti-bacterial drugs was 60.31%,the pathagen detection rate before treatment was low only 7.73%. CONCLUSIONS Prevalence rate survey method is simple and reliable,it may be the basic reflect of hospital infection. Further strengthening the management of invasive operations,regulateing the rational use of antibiotics status quo,improving the detection rate of pathogens and reduceing preventive medication and antibiotic usage are all evitable.

Objective To summarize the minimally invasive transthoracic ventricular septal defect (VSD) occlusion operation experience in the clinical application. Methods 142 VSD patients (admitted from August, 2013 to October, 2014) were chosen. All patients were treated with minimally invasive transthoracic device closure under the monitoring of transoesophageal echocardiogram. Results 136 cases received successful closure, and 6 cases still need CPB conventional extracorporeal circulation operation. After follow-up for 3 ~ 12 months for 102 patients, 16 cases remain residual shunt. Conclusion The short-term therapeutic effect of minimally invasive transthoracic device closure of VSD is satisfying. However , the long-term follow-up remains to be studied.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and surgical treatment for primary presacral tumors.Methods The clinical data of 42 patients of primary presacral tumors from January 2013 to May 2015 were analysed retrospectively.Results Of the 42 patients,16 cases were asymptomatic while 26 patients had discomfort at the sacral or abdominal region,or difficulty in urinating or defecation.90％ of the cases were digital rectum examination (DRE) positive.Among the 42 patients 36 cases underwent surgical treatment,1 case underwent radiotherapy,5 cases refused surgical treatment.Among those receiving surgical resection,28 cases had trans-abdominal surgery and 4 cases had trans-sacral surgery,while 3 cases had trans-abdominal & trans-sacral surgery,1 case had trans-abdominal and perineal surgery.Tumors were completely resected in 31 cases,and palliatively resected in 5 cases.3 cases suffered from intra-operative presacral hemorrhage.1 case with delayed hemorrhage required surgical intervention.2 cases from incision infection recovered after wound disinfection and dressing.3 cases had postoperative hip or leg numbness;1 case with high fever was cured by intensive antibiotics treatment.Conclusion The low incidence of presacral tumors makes early detection difficult.A diagnosis can be obtained by a positive DRE combined with CT or MRI results.Resection is a therapy of choice after biopsies.

ObjectiveTo compare the clinical characteristic and postoperative histopathological parameters in different prostate size and to assess the effect of prostate volume on histopathological outcomes in patients after laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. MethodsTwo hundred and sixteen patients from 2006 to 2011 who were proved prostatic carcinoma by biopsy and performed laparoscopic radical prostatectomy wewe retrospectively evaluated.All patients were divided into the small group ( ＜ 30 ml,103 cases),intermediate group(30 -60 ml,71 cases) and large group ( ＞60 ml,42 cases) according to prostate volume.Clinical variables included age,body mass index (BMI),preoperative PSA level,prostate volume,percentage of positive needles,clinical stage,and biopsy Gleason score (GS).Histopathological parameters included pathological GS,upgrading or not compared to biopsy GS,pathological stage and surgical margins status.Preoperative clinical variables and postoperative histopatholgogical parameters were compared among the 3 prostate groups. ResultsPatients with smaller prostates had lower PSA levels than those with intermediate and larger prostates (P =0.000).They also had worse histopathological outcomes such as pathological GS ( P =0.034 ),upgrading of GS ( P =0.037 ),and pathological stage ( P =0.025 ).35.0％ of patients in smaller prostate group had a positive surgical margin compare to 33.8％ and 19.0％ in intermediate and larger prostate groups,but there was no significant difference (P =0.152).ConclusionMen with smaller prostate may have more high-grade cancer and more advanced disease after laparoscopic radical prostatectomy.

: ObjectiveTo compare the clinical significance of motor unit number estimates (MUNE) and conventional electromyogram (EMG) in the evaluation of neuromuscular disorders. MethodsUnder the model of MUNE or quantity of motor unit potential (QMUP), 53 patients with various neurogenic disorders were tested with EMG at extensor digitorum brevis, thenar, or hypothenar eminence. ResultsFor 8 patients with amyotrophic lateralizing sclerosis, large and long-duration polyphasic potentials were detected in needle electrode EMG tests, and the motor unit numbers reduced. For 45 patients with peripheral neuropathies, few distinctive features could not be detected by needle electrode EMG, but motor unit numbers reduced in 2 patients; spontaneous activities were the only abnormality in the other 2 patients, and there were no obviously abnormal changes in the configuration and size of motor unit potentials and in motor unit numbers; EMG tests revealed neurogenic features and motor unit numbers significantly reduced in the remaining 41 patients. ConclusionConventional EMG and MUNE can work for the diagnosis of neuromuscular disorders, and do better in combination.

Objective To investigates the role of duodenum and bile duct preserving pancreatic head resection (DBPPHR) in treatment of benign or low-grade malignant diseases located in the head of pancreas.Methods The clinical data of 31 patients who underwent DBPPHR between April 2012 to May 2016 in Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital and Zhangzhou Municipal Hospital of Fujian Province were analyzed retrospectively.Results Of the 31 patients,4 patients underwent laparoscopic DBPPHR.One patient in the open group was converted to pancreaticoduodenectomy.For the open group,the mean operation time was (165.3 ±63.6) min;the mean estimated blood loss was (258.1 ± 156.9) ml;and the mean postoperative stay was (11.7 ± 6.3) days.The postoperative complications included 1 reoperation due to postoperative bleeding,1 bile leakage and 13 patients developed grade A pancreatic fistula (48.2％).For the laparoscopic group,the mean operation time was 350.0 (280.0 ～ 450.0) min;the mean estimated blood loss was 425.0 (250.0 ～600.0) ml;and the mean postoperative stay was 14 days.Three patients developed postoperative pancreatic fistula (grade A).The pathological diagnosis were:12 patients with pancreatolithiasis,8 patients with serous cystadenoma,4 patients with branched intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm,5 patients with neuroendocrine tumor and 2 patients with mucinous cystadenoma.The follow-up period was 1 ～ 48 month,and there was no patient with diabetes or diarrhea.Conclusions DBPPHR was safe and efficacious.It is less invasive to treat benign or low-grade malignant diseases located in the head of pancreas.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of proton and carbon-ion radiotherapy (RT) for stage Ⅰ non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with pencil beam scanning technique.Methods From August 2014 to December 2015,10 patients with stage Ⅰ NSCLC who were inoperable or refused surgery were treated by proton +/-carbon-ion RT.Primary lesions were irradiated using 2-4 portals with 45-degree beams.A total dose of 50-70 GyE/10 fractions,60-64 GyE/15-16 fractions,and 66-72 GyE/22-24 fractions were administered to patients based on tumor location (4 peripheral,3 middle,and 3 central lesions,respectively).Results At the last follow-up in December 2016 with the median follow-up of 18.1 (11.9-28.1) months,local control was found in all patients per CT or PET/CT scanning(6 complete response,3 partial response,and 1 stable disease).However,2 patients with local control (1 partial response and 1 stable disease) experienced a distant failure at 8.7 and 24.9 months after RT,respectively.There was no RT-related Grade 3-5 toxicity in all patients.Grade 2 toxicities were only found in 2 patients (acute skin reaction and leucopenia,respectively).At 1,3-5 months after RT,the pulmonary function tests showed a slightly increase in FVC,FEV1 and DLCO-sb compared with those before RT without statistical significance (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The particle RT using pencil beam scanning technique was safe,and yielded encouraging outcome for patients with stage I NSCLC who were inoperable or refused surgery.Further follow-up and prospective clinical studies are warranted in the future.
