Objective To compare the efficacies and indications of locking compression plate (LCP) and external fixator plus Kirschner wires in treatment of complex intra-articular fracture of the dis-tal radius. Methods Ninety-eight patients with complex intra-articular fractures of the distal radius were treated with volar LCP or external fixator plus Kirschner wires, the efficacies of which were evaluated by comparing the grasping force and wrist function of the patients. Results All the patients were fol-lowed up for an average of 12.4 months, which showed fracture healing in all the patients. According to the wrist function assessment system of New York Orthopedic Hospital (1990), there was no statistical difference in the efficacy of LCP and external f'lxator plus Kirschner wires in treatment of types C1 or C2 fractures (P > 0.05), while the efficacy of external fixator plus Kirschner wires was significantly superior to that of LCP in treating type C3 fracture (P < 0.05). Conclusions For types C1 or C2 intra-articu-lar fractures of the distal radius, the efficacies of LCP and external fixator plus Kirschner wires are simi-lar, while the efficacy of external fixator plus Kirschner wires is superior to that of LCP in treating type C3 intra-articular fracture of the distal radius.

Objective To explore short-term effect of tonsillotomy on children′s obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) with tonsil hypertrophy by Ellman double-frequency radio-frequency machine .Methods Totally 30 cases children′s OS-AHS with tonsil hypertrophy were had tonsillotomy by Ellman double-frequency radio-frequency machine .They were compared with 30 cases children′s OSAHS with tonsil hypertrophy by traditional tonsillectomy .Short-term effect of tonsillotomy were ana-lyzed by wound bleeding ,operation time ,postoperative pain ,difficulty eating ,PSG testing ,immune function ,growth and develop-ment .Results Postoperative symptom in 1 weeks and 6 months ,compared with the traditional tonsillectomy ,30 cases of OSAHS patients were found that there were less bleeding ,shorter operative time ,mild postoperative pain ,no difficulty in feeding ,improving sleep-disordered breathing ,no decline in immune function ,good growth and development .Conclusion Short-term effect of tonsillot-omy on children′s OSAHS with tonsil hypertrophy is good by Ellman double-frequency radio-frequency machine ,it is a minimally invasive ,safe and effective surgical method children OSA HS .

OBJECTIVE:To observe clinical efficacy of epinephrine combined with vasopressin and naloxone for cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR)and to investigate its mechanism. METHODS:64 patients with sudden cardiac and respiratory arrest were randomly divided into control group(epinephrine group),treatment group Ⅰ(epinephrine+vasopressin group)and treatment group Ⅱ(vasopressin+epinephrine+naloxone group). Spontaneous circulation,breathing recovery time,restoration of spontaneous circulation and respiration rate,24 h survival rate and discharge survival rate were observed and compared among different groups. RESULTS:As compared with control group,spontaneous circulation,breathing recovery time 24 h survival rate and discharge survival rate in treatment group Ⅰ and Ⅱwere increased significantly(P

AIM: To explore the clinical features, diagnosis and treatment experience and the distribution characteristics of pathogenic microorganisms of primary canaliculitis, and provide reference for its diagnosis and treatment. METHODS: Retrospective clinical study. A total of 119 cases(120 eyes)diagnosed as primary canaliculitis in the department of ophthalmology of Wuxi No.2 People's Hospital from June 2019 to February 2023 were included. The treatment methods were mainly divided into conservative treatment(removing canaliculus stones through lacrimal punctum combined with injecting antibiotic eye ointment into the tube)and surgical treatment. The inspection methods of pathogenic microorganisms included secretion smear microscopy and microbial culture.RESULTS: Primary canaliculitis was more common in middle-aged and older female, mainly manifested by long-term red eye and increased secretion; however, the majority was not accompanied by tearing. Totally, 118 cases(99.2%)had monocular disease, while 63 cases(63 eyes; 52.5%)had inferior lacrimal canaliculus disease. Laboratory examination: Among 119 cases(120 eyes), 4 cases(4 eyes)did not undergo laboratory examination, and the other 115 cases(116 eyes)were as follows: Gram staining microscopy of secretion smear showed that Actinomyces were detected in 102 cases(103 eyes; 88.8%), while no fungus was detected; Microbial culture: 85 cases(86 eyes; 74.1%)were positive for bacterial culture. A total of 111 bacterial strains were cultured, which contained 26 types of bacteria. Among them, 32 strains were aerobic(28.8%); 26 strains were anaerobic(23.4%); and 53 strains were facultative anaerobic(47.7%). The most common bacteria were streptococcus(20 strains), staphylococcus(13 strains), Propionibacterium(10 strains), and capnocytophaga(10 strains). Only 4 cases(4 eyes; 3.4%)of microbial cultures were positive for Actinomyces. Fungus was negative in all microbial cultures. Treatment: Of the 119 cases(120 eyes), 114 cases(115 eyes; 95.8%)were cured by conservative treatment of removing lacrimal canaliculus stones through lacrimal punctum and intracanalicular ointment infiltration(IOI), while 5 cases(5 eyes)were not effective in conservative treatment; however, all of them were cured after surgical treatment, and the cure rate for primary canaliculitis was 100.0%.CONCLUSION: The incidence of primary canaliculitis is low, and it is prevalent in middle-aged and older female. Single lacrimal canaliculus is more common, which could be missed and misdiagnosed in clinic. Actinomyces is the major pathogen observed mostly in mixed infections, with heterogeneous strains, mainly anaerobic or facultative anaerobic bacteria. Streptococcus and Staphylococcus are the most common whereas fungal canaliculitis is rare. The cure rate of primary canaliculitis is high after diagnosis, and IOI method is recommended as the initial treatment of canaliculitis.
