BACKGROUND:Because it can reduce the risk of postoperative bone cement leakage, percutaneous kyphoplasty is increasingly used for treatment of severe osteoporotic thoracolumbar vertebral compression fractures. Studies have found that injection of mixed bone cement with high viscosity can significantly reduce the leakage of bone cement. OBJECTIVE:To compare the therapeutic efficacy of percutaneous vertebroplasty with high viscosity bone cement and percutaneous kyphoplasty with standard viscosity bone cement in the treatment of severe osteoporotic thoracolumbar vertebral compression fractures. METHODS:Eighty patients with severe osteoporotic thoracolumbar vertebral compression fractures were enroled and randomized into vertebroplasty group and kyphoplasty group, 40 patients in each group. Visual analog scale score and Oswestry disability index score were compared between groups before and after treatment. Incidence rate of bone cement leakage and other complications were also compared between two groups after treatment. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:No significant difference was found between the visual analog scale scores of two groups after treatment (P> 0.05). Patients in the two groups al presented with good recovery of spinal function after treatment, and there was no difference in the Oswestry disability index scores between groups at 3 months after treatment (P> 0.05). The incidence rate of bone cement leakage was 45% in the vertebroplasty group and 30% in the kyphoplasty group, with a significant difference (P < 0.05). But the patients in both groups showed no obvious clinical symptoms and underwent no treatment. After treatment, al patients had no pulmonary embolism, bone cement toxicity, spinal cord and nerve root injury. These findings show that there is no significant difference between percutaneous vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty with high-viscosity bone cement in the folowing aspects: pain improvement, recovery of the spinal function, incidence rate of bone cement leakage and clinical efficacy.

Objective: To investigate the significance of laminin(LN) and laminin receptor(LN-R) in the proceeding and prognosis of hydatidiform mole.Methods: Immunohistochemical SP staining was used to detect the expression of LN and LN-R in 41 hydatidiform mole cases(13 cases were learned to have turned malignant by following up).20 cases of normal early gestational chorion were detected as control.Results: The strong positive rates of LN and LN-R in normal chorion,hydatidiform mole un-malignant group and malignant group were respectively 90.0%(18/20),71.4%(20/28),38.5%(5/13),and 70.0%(14/20),71.4%(20/28),84.6%(11/13).The strong expression of LN had a significant difference between malignant group and the other 2 groups(P

Objective To explore the etiology of abdominia incision hernia and treatments of giant incisional hernia of abdominal wall. Methods 14 cases with AGIH treated in our hospital from Oct 2003 to May 2008 were analyzed retrospectively. Results The etiology of abdominia incision hernia were very important,and abdominal longitudinal incision was performed, 10 cases ＞ 67y among 14 cases with incision hernia were 71.42%. Infection of incision and essential conditions( diabetes, chronic cough ,hypoalbum inemia)were also easily induced of incisional hernia. All of them chose the marlex patch. The cases were all cured and no serious postoperative complications. None of cases recurred during a follow up of 3 to 56 months. Conclusion The etiology of AGIH related with longitudinal incision,old ( ＞ 60y)and essential conditions. AGIH were repained with polypropylene mesh. Essential conditions should be treated before operation and abdominal wall should be trained comfortablely. Repairing abdominal incision hernial with artifical patch was a safe and simple operation with minimal postoperation pain.

The constitutional medical thoughts in Inner Canon of Huangdi is the foundation for TCM constitution theory, it discusses the influence of constitution on disease in detail. Constitution factors determine the disease onset or not; Constitution factors determine the tendency and character of disease. Constitution factors effect the changes of pathogenesis, the character of syndrome, the therapeutic principle and methods; Constitution factors effect the turnover and prognosis. Constitution therapies are profit to correct the partial body, preventing the development of disease and heal the disease.

Objective To investigate the application value of intraoperative ultrasound (IOUS) in living donor liver transplantation(LDLT). Methods In LDLT, IOUS techniques (gray scale ultrasound and color Doppler flow imaging) were adopted in 26 donors and recipients for parenchymal and vascular examinations. The abnormal sonograms were observed, and the anatomic findings of hepatic veins were recorded. All the reanastomosed blood vessels were examined by gray scale ultrasound and color Doppler flow imaging before the operations were completed. Results A hepatic parenchymatous tumor was revealed by IOUS in one donor. Besides, middle hepatic veins in 13 donors and secondary hepatic veins with diameter﹥0.5 cm in 5 donors were confirmed by IOUS. Furthermore, one operation procedure was changed and one hepatic artery stenosis was established according to IOUS findings. Conclusion IOUS is a very useful means in evaluation of parenchymal and vascular conditions of donors and recipients in LDLT, which helps to select the best cross section and provides evidence for the change of surgical procedures.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of paeoniae decoction (PD) add and subtract or modified PD combined with mesalazine for treatment of patients with ulcerative colitis (UC).Methods A prospective study was conducted, 98 patients with UC admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from August 2015 to August 2016 were enrolled, and they were divided into an observation group and a control group by random number table, 49 cases in each group. The control group was treated with mesalazine 1 g, 3 times daily; the observation group was treated with paeoniae decoction (ingredients: paeonia 30 g, coptis chinensis 15 g, Chinese angelica 15 g, betel nut 6 g, Chinese rhubarb 6 g, baikal skullcap 6 g, cinnamon 6 g, licorice 6 g) add and subtract, on the basis of treatment of the control group ,1 dose daily, each dose was decocted 2 times and warm decoction was taken once in the morning and once in the evening; the therapeutic course in both group was consecutive 6 weeks. The contents of different inflammatory factors, interleukin (IL-1, IL-8), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), C-reactive protein (CRP)in serum were compared before and after treatment between the two groups, and the clinical curative effects and adverse reactions were observed in two groups.Results After treatment, the levels of serum IL-1, IL-8, TNF-α, CRP in two groups were significantly lower than those before treatment, and the degrees of decrease were more significant in the observation group than those in the control group [IL-1 (ng/L): 8.48±3.05 vs. 9.38±3.37, IL-8 (ng/L): 10.15±2.23 vs. 11.94±2.30, TNF-α (μg/L): 122.13±6.40 vs. 137.02±7.35, CRP (mg/L): 7.16±1.93 vs. 8.02±2.63, allP < 0.05]. After treatment, the total effective rate in observation group was significantly higher than that in control group [91.84% (45/49) vs. 77.55% (38/49),P < 0.05]; the adverse reactions of observation group and control group had no statistical significant difference [4.08% (2/49) vs. 6.12% (3/49),P > 0.05].Conclusion The clinical efficacy of add and subtract of paeoniae decoction combined with mesalazine for treatment of ulcerative colitis is prominent, and no increase of adverse reaction occurrence was seen.

Objective To study the protective effects and mechanisms of adenosine on lung ischemia-reperfusion injury in rabbit. Methods The rabbit ltng model of ischemia-reperfusion was constructed.Thirty Chinese rabbits were random divided into three groups: Group A (no surgery), group B (ischemiareperfusion) and group C (Adenosine + ischemia-reperfusion). The MDA content,SOD content of the plasma, wet-dryrate (W/D) and the pathology of lung tissue and the index of quantitative assessment of histologic lung injury (IQA) were measured after 60 min reperfusion. Results After 60min reperfusion, the value of W/D, MDA and IQA in group B were significantly higher than those in group A (q = 7. 06,13.71,18. 62, P ＜0.01), while the concentration of SOD were lower than those in group A (q = 14. 33, P ＜0.01). In contrast with group B, W/D,MDA and IQA in group C was obviously lower (q =5.23 ,8. 51, 9.99,however, the concentration of SOD were higher than those in group B (q = 7.73, P ＜ 0. 01). In contrast with group A and C ,the expression of CD11b/CD 18 of group B was significantly increased after 60min reperfusion (q =8.59,9.56, P ＜0. 01). Conclusion Adenosine can prevent ischemia-reperfusion injury in rabbit lung in vivo by inhibiting the expression of CD-11b/CD18 on PMNs and dropping oxygen free radicals level.

ObjectiveTo analyse the changes of electrolytes and electrolyte disturbances within 72 h in asphyxia neonates. MethodsTwenty-three severe-asphyxia neonates (asphyxia group) and 27 mildasphyxia neonates(control group) were selected.Venous blood samples of 2 ml were drawn at 0-24 h, 25-48h and 49-72 h respectively. The changes of electrolytes(such as plasma sodium, potassium, chlorine,calcium and magnesium) and the incidence of hyponatremia,hypokalemia,hypocalcaemia and hypomagnesemia were compared between two groups. ResultsThe levels of plasma sodium, calcium at 0-24 h, 25-48 h and 49-72 h in asphyxia group were lower than those in control group (P ＜ 0.05). The levels of plasma magnesium at 25-48 h and 49-72 h in asphyxia group were lower than those in control group (P ＜ 0.05 ), but there was no significant difference at 0-24 h (P ＞ 0.05 ). The levels of plasma potassium at 49-72 h in asphyxia group was lower than that in control group(P＜ 0.05). There were no obvious changes in plasma chlorine, phosphorus in two groups (P＞0.05). Hyponatremia, hypokalemia, hypocalcaemia was happened within 72 h in asphyxia neonates especially at 25-48 h, but hypomagnesemia was more at 25-48 h and 49-72 h. ConclusionElectrolyte disturbances can appear not only in 24 h, but also in different periods after asphyxia, therefore, it is necessary to maintain homeostasis by taking corresponding measures according to the changes of blood gas and the changes of electrolytes.
