Objective To analyze the trends of leprosy epidemic and evaluate the effects of its control in Yunnan Province. Methods The epidemiologic data were analyzed. Results There were 50 797 leprosy patients detected in Yunnan during 1954~ 1998 with a high prevalence in china.Among these patients,37 639 were cured,10 447 died,and 1 069 dropped out.There were 1 642 active patients at the end of 1998.It was in 1966 that the prevalence is highest(0.82/1 000) with 18 350 active patients and decreased to 0.04/1 000 in 1998.The incidence was 19.37/100 000 in 1957 and decreased to 0.32/100 000 in 1998.The most numerous patient (4 680) was detected with a rate of 24.45/100 000 in 1958,and the rate decreased to 1.63/100 000 in 1998.In 1960s and 1970s, a lot of leprosy villages were built and a mass survey of leprosy patients was taken.Doctors treated patients with DDS alone at that time. MDT was the first to use in Mengla in 1983 and spread during 1986~ 1989. Conclusion Several measures were taken for detecting and treating patients effectively, and the endemic and incidence decreased by a big margin as well.

Objective To evaluate the additional efficacy of local anesthetic injection (LAI) as a part of multimodal anal?gesia in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with respect to pain, narcotic use, knee function and complications. Methods A multicenter randomized, controlled, double blind study was performed. A total of 101 patients undergoing unilateral TKA in two centers were randomly divided into injection group and control group. Injection group (50 cases) received local anes?thetic injection of ropivacaine (200 mg), fentanyl (1μg) and epinephrine (1∶1 000, 0.25 mg) in operation and control group (51 cas?es) did not. All patients received standardized general anesthesia and postoperative intravenous patient controlled analgesia (PCA). Preoperative baseline data, surgery?related conditions, postoperative pain (on a 0 to 10 scale), knee function, time of open?ing PCA, narcotic dosage in PCA and complications were compared respectively. Results The time of opening PCA in injection group (4-10 h, M=8 h) was longer than that in control group (2-5 h, M=4 h) (P<0.05). The 12 h, 24 h and total narcotic use of PCA in injection group (8.62±3.601 ml, 21.22±9.220 ml, 38.52±7.764 ml) was less than that in control group (18.43±9.671 ml, 35.30± 11.414 ml, 55.52±12.405 ml) (P<0.05). At post anesthesia care unit the mean VAS in injection group (2.40±1.927) was lower than that in control group (3.06 ± 2.073) (P<0.05). There was no difference in mean VAS at other time points, knee function, length of stay between two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion LIA in TKA can relieve pain early after TKA, prolong the time of opening PCA and reduce narcotic use compared with patients without it. It is simple and safe to use.

Objective:
To investigate the microbiological test, antibiotic sensitivity and surgical treatment of periprosthetic joint infection(PJI) cases in post total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients.
Methods:
A retrospective cross-sectional survey was conducted on 318 patients who underwent THA or TKA in 9 clinical centers in Beijing from January 2014 to December 2016.The data of microbiology, antibiotic sensitivity and surgical treatment were collected.The average age of patients was (62.3±13.1) years old (range: 21-86 years old), including 145 males and 173 females.The body mass index was (25.6±3.8) kg/m 2 (range: 15.6-38.1 kg/m2).
Results:
In total, 318 patients had microorganisms detected by periprosthetic tissue culture or synovial fluid culture, 209 cases (65.7%) had Gram-positive bacteria, 29 cases (9.1%) had Gram-negative bacteria, 10 cases (3.1%) had fungi, 3 cases (0.9%) had non-tuberculous mycobacteria, 72 cases (22.6%) were negative, 69 cases (21.7%) had methicillin-resistant bacteria. The antibiotic sensitivity results showed that the overall resistance rate of penicillin, cefuroxime, amoxicillin+clavulanic acid was 79.9%, 69.9%, and 68.1%, respectively; meropenem, vancomycin, and linezolid resistance rate was 0. For the treatment methods of hip and knee PJI, two-stage revision surgery acounted for 72.9% (108/148) and 64.1% (109/170), respectively. One-stage revision surgery accounted for 21.6% (32/148) and 7.6% (13/170), and open debridement surgery accounted for 4.7%(7/148) and 26.4% (45/170).
Conclusions
Gram-positive bacteria was still the main pathogen of PJI.The methicillin-resistant bacteria and rare bacteria should be payed attention to. The Majority of hip and knee PJI cases were treated by two-stage revision surgery.
