Objective To analyze the clinical behavior and correlative mechanism of the patients with the syndrome of neck injury associate with craniocerebral injury,to investigate its incidence for contributing to the diagnosis and therapy of the patients with the craniocerebral injury and improving the postoperative result. Methods Two hundred and eighty-three patients with craniocerebral injury treated from June 2000 to July 2003 were studied retrospectively. Results In 283 patients, 42( 14.8%) patients presented the syndrome of neck injury clearly in symptom or sign, of whom 39 ( 13.7% ) patients were diagnosed neck injury finally, 3 (1.1%) patients were clinically conclude neck injury. The syndrome mainly presents with noncerebral and nonaural vertigo incorresponding with the recovery of brain injury. Noncerebral, nonaural and nondigestive vomit. Intractable nuchal rigidity incorresponding with the recovery of brain injury. Motion and position limited, stubborn neck malaise, transient spinal cord injury. The symptoms were easy to be improved by neck motion control, neck traction,block therapy, massage and physiotherapy lamp. Conclusion The syndrome of brain-neck injury is a common injury. To learn the syndrome and take the regular therapy can improve the therapeutic efficacy of the craniocerebral injury.

7.Clinical effect of vitapex paste in the treatment of deciduous teeth with periapical inflammation
Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2012;19(18):2748-2749
Objective To investigate the clinical effect of vitapex paste in the treatment of deciduous teeth with periapical inflammation.Methods 112 children with chronic apicitis of deciduous teeth were divided into two groups randomly and averagely.The research group used vitapex paste,while the control group used zinc oxide eugenol paste.The clinical effects of the 2 groups were compared.Results Compared to the control group,the response to root canal filling of the research group was much weaker ( 10.7% to 25.0% ),which had statistical difference ( x2 =3.02,P =0.0 1 1 ).There wasalso significant difference betweenthe success rateofthetwogroups after 1 year followed up( x2 =5.16,P =0.004).Conclusion sing vitapex paste for root canal filling had a higher success rate and a weaker respose to root canal filling.
8.Application of enlargement of plastic surgery for dural closure with radial neuro-patch in standardize large decompressive craniectomy
Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2012;35(2):10-14
ObjectiveTo explore the application of enlargement of plastic surgery for dural closure with radial neuro-patch in standardize large decompressive craniectomy (SLDC).MethodsTwenty-one patients (observation group) who needed a SLDC for various reasons were treated with radial incision in dura to release the high intracranial pressure and enlargement of plastic surgery for dural closure with radial neuropatch from March 2009 to June 2010.The neuro-patch were used as the dural substitutes.Twenty-one patients were treated with SLDC only for the similar reasons (control group).General healing effects were compared betweentwo groups.ResultsIn 6 hours and 72 hours after surgery,the rate of obvious effectiveness in observation group was significantly higher than that in control group [33.33%(7/21 ) vs.14.29%(3/21 ),33.33%(7/21 ) vs.19.05%(4/21 ) 、61.90%( 13/21 ) vs.28.57%(6/21 ),61.90%( 13/21 ) vs.38.10%(8/21 )](P < 0.05).The rate of intracranial infection,cerebrospinal leak and epilepsy in observation group [0,0,4.76% ( 1/21 )]was significantly lower than that in control group [14.29% (3/21),14.29% (3/21),19.05% (4/21)](P <0.05).The rate of subcutaneous or subdural cerebrospinal fluid accumulation,cenencephalocele,cerebral ventricular malformation,brain hernia through the skull window had no significant difference between two groups [19.05%(4/21 ),0,4.76%( 1/21 ),0 in observation group;23.81%(5/21 ),9.52%(2/21 ),9.52%(2/21 ),4.76%( 1/21 ) in control group) (P > 0.05 ).After followed up of 6-12 months,the rate of the well general outcome in observation group was significantly better than that in control group [85.71% ( 18/21 ) vs.71.43% ( 15/21 )](P < 0.05 ).The rate of moderate-critical function handicapped in control group was significantly higher than that in observation group [23.81%(5/21 ) vs.9.52%(2/21 )](P<0.05 ).ConclusionsThe SLDC is effective for decreasing the intracranial pressure,and the enlargement of plastic surgery for dural closure with radial neuro-patch can improve the efficiency and decrease the incidence of complicating diseases.This therapy can improve the patients' general quality of survival and is worth to be popularized in clinic.
