1.Evaluation of the therapies for neonatal posthaemorrhagic hydrocephalus
Journal of Clinical Pediatrics 2014;(3):201-205
Although the percentage of preterm infants developing intraventricular haemorrhage (IVH) has been greatly re-duced in the past three decades, increased survival of extremely preterms has meant that severe IVH with subsequent posthae-morrhagic hydrocephalus is still one of the serious unsolved problems for managements of preterms. Therapeutic interventions for posthaemorrhagic hydrocephalus include serial lumbar punctures, repeated aspiration through a ventricular access device, ventriculoperitoneal shunting, drainage, irrigation and fibrinolytic therapy, diuretic therapy treatment to reduce cerebrospinal fluid production, intraventricular fibrinolytic therapy, etc. This review summarizes the current concepts on the pathophysiology, inter-vention indications, and the effectiveness and safety of different interventions of subsequent posthaemorrhagic hydrocephalus.
2.Diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of fetal hydrocephalus
Chinese Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 2016;(2):89-92
Fetal hydrocephalus is a kind of congenital malformation,which is characterized by the enlargement of the ventricular system and the obstruction of cerebrospinal fluid.It is not accompanied by a primary brain atrophy,with or without the increase of head circumference.Early diagnosis and early treatment is very important.Without the timely inter-vention,most of the patients will die during the perinatal and infant period,and even the survivors often suffer from cere-bral palsy and mental retardation.However,the long -term prognosis and clinical course of patients with hydrocephalus is not yet fully understood.There is controversy on the factors which influence the long -term outcome,such as the timing of diagnosis of hydrocephalus,the severity of ventricular dilatation,the basic disease and accompanying anomalies.So,should establish comprehensive protocols to avoid and decrease fetal hydrocephalus,as well as pay attention to the clinicopatho-logical research,prenatal diagnosis,perinatal management and early treatment of fetal hydrocephalus.

Objective:To investigate high sensitivity-C reactive protein (Hs-CRP) as a prognostic factor in non-Hodgkin lympho-ma (NHL). Methods:Data for 85 consecutive non-Hodgkin lymphoma patients were followed up and reviewed to determine the value of Hs-CRP relative to known prognostic parameters. Results:The progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) times of pa-tients with pre-therapeutic baseline serum Hs-CRP levels of≥4 mg/L were shorter than those of patients with basal serum Hs-CRP lev-els of<4 mg/L (P>0.05). However, the post-therapeutic, early-to-mid serum Hs-CRP level was not significantly correlated with the OS and PFS times (P>0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that the pre-therapeutic baseline serum Hs-CRP level may be an important prognostic parameter for the relapse and survival of NHL patients (P<0.05). Conclusion:The baseline Hs-CRP level can be a major indicator of prognosis in NHL patients.

BACKGROUND:In the past, the surgical treatment of patients with hemophilia B was difficult, the bleeding was difficult to estimate, and the wound healing was difficult. In the perioperative period, the control of coagulation factor IX activity in a safe range can ensure the safety of the operation, resulting in wel wound healing, good recovery, and no significant complications appeared in the long term. OBJECTIVE:To study essentials of perioperative diagnosis and treatment in omarthritis patients with hemophilia B undergoing humeral head replacement, and to analyze the importance on prognosis and rehabilitation. METHODS:The significance of surgical treatment for hemophilia B patients with arthritis, the prevention and treatment of perioperative complications were summarized through literature review. Humeral head replacement was conducted in a patient with hemophilia omarthritis by monitoring coagulation factor activity and infusing human prothrombin complex and frozen plasma. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) According to the monitoring, patients, whose coagulation factor IX activity increased from 7%to 50%, underwent humeral head replacement. (2) Within three days after replacement, coagulation factor IX activity was control ed>30%, 3 days-2 weeks>20%. No obvious complication was found after surgery. (3) These results suggested that hemophilia B arthritis was commonly treated by surgical treatment, which plays an important role in assessing patient’s condition and treatment. During perioperative period, replacement therapy of human prothrombin complex and control of coagulation factor activity in a appropriate range can effectively prevent postoperative complications.

BACKGROUND:There are numerous laboratory reports concerning β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) bioceramics;however, its application in the treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is rarely reported. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the short-term efficacy of core decompression combined with β-TCP bioceramics in the treatment of ARCO Ⅰ/Ⅱ/ⅢA non-traumatic ONFH. METHODS:Twelve patients (16 hips) suffered from ARCO Ⅰ/Ⅱ/ⅢA non-traumatic ONFH were treated by core decompression combined with β-TCP implantation. The Harris hip scores (HHS) and radiological observation were performed before and after treatment. The HHS at the last follow-up or the HHS prior to the radiographs showing deterioration or severe complication occurrence was recorded. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Al patients were followed up for 19 months averagely (11-30 months) and no fracture, infection and other complications occurred. The HHS significantly increased from (73.61±3.70) to (84.88±7.11) points after treatment (P<0.001). The postoperative outcome was excellent in five cases with five hips, good in five cases with nine hips, mild in one case with one hip, poor in one case with one hip, and the excel ent and good rate was 87.5%(14/16). The radiographs of only one case of ARCO ⅡC and one case of ARCO ⅢA showed deterioration, and the latter was given the total hip arthroplasty. These results indicate that the core decompression combined with β-TCP implantation achieve short-term efficacy for ARCO Ⅰ/Ⅱ/ⅢA non-traumatic ONFH.
