Objective To know the situation of upper GI diseases among the residents in Dong tai city. Methods With three levels examination methods of Occult Blood Bead Detector,Gastroscope and pathological examination,residents aged over 30 yrs in Dongtai were screened during Aug 2005 to Sept 2006. Results 70 809 residents,about 6.13% of whole city population,were taken the screen with occult blood bead detector. There were about 28 392 people positive; the positive rate was 40.10%. Among the positive people,there were 8 121 people taking gastroscope inspection,and while 2 294 of them also took the pathological examination. The gastroscope results showed that 4 636 people suffered from chronic superficial gastritis,1 431 rotten gastritis,565 esophagus gastritis,339 chronic & atrophic gastritis,24 suspicious cancers,53 stomach cancer,44 esophagus cancer. Of these 97 cases with cancers diagnosed by gastroscope,87 cases were confirmed by pathological examination,the false positive rate of gastroscope examination was about 10.31%; Among 2 197 of the non-cancer subjects diagnosed by gastroscope,there were 25 cases with cancer diagnosed by pathological method,the false negative rate of gastroscope was 1.14%. For those 112 cancer cases diagnosed by pathology,there were 83 cases (74.11%) who were in the early or middle phase of cancer. Conclusion The prevalence of upper GI diseases in Dongtai City was higher. It should strengthen the education and the improvement of the health situation.

Objective: To determine the overlapping area of the femoral condyle facet on which the patellofemoral and tibiofemoral joint surfaces move and to measure the pressures on such area in order to better design the length of femoral trochlea prosthesis in patellofemoral arthroplasty. Methods: Eight fresh cadaver knees were mounted on Instron 8501 biomechanics tester,and simulated physiologically weight-bearing situation of knee from standing to flexion position. Such overlapping area was drawed up with stain method and the contact pressures were measured with Fuji pressure film. Results: There existed an overlapping contact area on the femoral condyle facet within the patellofemoral contact area when knee flexion was 75? or larger. The tibiofemoral contact pressure was higher than the patellofemoral pressure in the area. Conclusion: The femoral trocher prosthesis should cover the whole contact area of patellofemoral joint.

Objective To compare volar plating and nonoperative treatment for senile comminuted fractures of the distal radius. Methods From October 2012 to June 2015, 46 senile comminuted fractures of the distal radius ( AO types B and C ) were treated surgically or conservatively. Twenty old patients were managed by open reduction and fixation with a volar locked plate. They were 7 men and 13 women, with an average age of 67. 9 ± 10. 7 years, including 7 cases of AO type 23-B and 13 cases of AO type 23-C. Twenty-six patients were managed with closed reduction and plaster cast. They were 8 men and 18 women, with an average age of 66. 2 ± 11. 5 years, including 10 cases of AO type 23-B and 16 cases of AO type 23-C. The 2 groups were compared in terms of follow-up time, union time and wrist functional scores and complica-tions. Results There was no significant difference between the 2 groups in follow-up time ( P > 0. 05 ) . Fractures in the 2 groups all united about 11 weeks after surgery. According to Dienst scoring for reduction, the volar plating group had 13 excellent cases, 4 good ones, 2 fair ones and one poor case, with an excellent to good rate of 85. 0％ while the nonoperative group had 5 excellent cases, 10 good ones, 5 fair ones and 6 poor ones, with an excellent to good rate of 57. 7％. A significant difference was shown between the 2 groups ( P <0. 05 ) . At final follow-ups, the volar plating group had significantly lower Gartland & Werley wrist functional score ( 2. 16 ± 1. 82 ) and complication rate ( 30. 0％, 6/20 ) than the nonoperative group [ 6. 62 ± 3. 78 and 53. 8％( 14/26 ) , respectively ] ( P <0. 05 ) . Conclusion In treatment of senile comminuted fractures of the distal radius, volar locked plating may lead to better functional recovery and fewer complications than nonoper-ative management. However, one should take full account of the physical condition and preference of the patient when surgery is chosen.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the difference and correlation between continuous non-invasive arterial pressure (CNAP) monitor and pulse indicated continuous cardiac output (PiCCO) monitor on determination of hemodynamic parameters in mechanically ventilated critically ill patients, and to assess the feasibility of non-invasive monitoring of hemodynamics with CNAP. METHODS: A prospective observation self-control study was conducted.The critically ill patients with mechanical ventilation who needed hemodynamics monitoring, and admitted to the fourth department of intensive care unit (ICU) of Fujian Provincial Hospital from June 2018 to March 2019 were enrolled. PiCCO catheter were inserted immediately after admission, the hemodynamic indexes were measured by thermodilution method, and mean arterial pressure (MAP_PiCCO), cardiac index (CI_PiCCO), pulse pressure variation rate (PPV_PiCCO) and systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI_PiCCO) were obtained at 0 hour and 24 hours respectively. Meanwhile, the above indexes (MAP_CNAP, CI_CNAP, PPV_CNAP and SVRI_CNAP) were measured with CNAP. All measurements were repeated thrice and average values were reported. The differences in above parameters between the two methods were evaluated. Pearson test was used for the correlation analysis and Bland-Altman analysis method was used for consistency test. RESULTS: Thirty-eight patients were enrolled into this study. One patient died within 24 hours was excluded, 2 patients were excluded due to withdrawing treatment within 24 hours, 2 patients were excluded because of atrial fibrillation, and 1 patient's data was lost due to technical problems. Thus, data from 32 patients were available for final analysis. There were 12 females and 20 males, aging 26-84 years old with the mean of (66.8±19.1) years old, body mass index (BMI) of (23.7±3.9) kg/m², acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II (APACHE II) score of 19.5±5.3, sepsis-related organ failure assessment (SOFA) score of 9.7±4.1. There were no significant differences in CI or PPV between CNAP and PiCCO groups [CI (mL×s^-1×m^-2): 59.8±12.6 vs. 58.5±14.2, PPV: (14.7±6.8)% vs. (14.0±6.8)%, both P > 0.05]. MAP and SVRI measured by CNAP were significantly higher than those measured by PiCCO [MAP (mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): 65.6±9.4 vs. 60.1±9.2, SVRI (kPa×s×L^-1×m^-2): 206.2±53.9 vs. 179.5±57.8, both P < 0.01]. The correlation analysis showed that MAP, CI, PPV and SVRI measured by the two methods were significantly positively correlated (r value was 0.624, 0.864, 0.835 and 0.655 respectively, all P < 0.05). Bland-Altman analysis showed that CNAP and PiCCO had a good consistency for the measurement of CI and PPV, the average differences were 1.2 mL×s^-1×m^-2 and 0.5% respectively, while the 95% confidence interval (95%CI) were -12.8-15.3 mL×s^-1×m^-2 and -7.1%-8.2% respectively. However, the consistency of MAP and SVRI measured by those two methods was poor, the average differences were 5.5 mmHg and 26.8 kPa×s×L^-1×m^-2 respectively, while the 95%CI was -10.4-21.3 mmHg and -64.5-118.0 kPa×s×L^-1×m^-2 respectively. CONCLUSIONS CNAP was comparable with PiCCO when monitoring CI and PPV in mechanically ventilated critically ill patients; while the results of MAP and SVRI might be inaccurate, which should be interpreted correctly and carefully.
