Objective:To explore the causes and preventive measures of early complications after free gracilis muscle transfer in reconstruction of brachial plexus injury, and to improve the postoperative function of the transferred gracilis muscle.Methods:Patients were recruited from August, 2005 to December, 2016. All 111 patients of brachial plexus injury underwent reconstructive surgery using 122 free gracilis flaps. Early postoperative complications, including recipient site, donor site and systemic complications, were closely observed and recorded. Outcome measurements included incidence and timing of flap compromise, type of flap compromise, causes of vascular occlusion and salvage rate. The postoperative strength of gracilis was evaluated according to the BMRC score. The data were statistically analyzed. The difference was statistically significant if P<0.05. Results:The survival rate of 122 free gracilis transfers was 98.4% (120/122). Early complications occurred in 32 cases (including 2 complications in 6 patients) : 27 cases with recipient site complications (84.4%), 4 with donor site complications and 7 with systemic complications. Among the 32 cases of complications, 17 flap compromises caused by vascular obstruction and 15 of them were salvaged completely after exploration. Flap crisis was the main issue that affected the postoperative function of gracilis muscle, and 58.8% (10/17) of patients with vascular crisis showed muscle strength above M 3 after surgery. The main causes of vascular crisis were venous tortuosity and venous thrombosis, which had nothing to do with operation time and intraoperative blood loss. Conclusion:Flap crisis is the main factor affecting the postoperative function of gracilis. The rate of flap salvage can be tremendously increased by early detection, re-exploration and effective management of the flap crisis.

Objective To find out the significance of different radiologieal examinations in the di-agnosis of the prostate carcinoma through studying their radiological misdiagnosis rate. Methods By searching for patients having radiological examination results in the database of prostate carcinoma in Tianjin,got the patients whose examination results were different from prostate carcinoma. Analyzed the misdiagnosis rate of each kind of imaging diagnosis using x2-test retrospectively. Results In all patients searched, the misdiagnosis rate of transabdominal ultrasonography, transrectal uhrasonography (TRUS), CT , MRI was 45.1%, 10.1%, 34.5% and 7.5% respectively. Statistical analysis showed that the misdiagnosis rate of MRI was the lowest, then TRUS, and CT. Transabdominal ultrasonography had the highest misdiagnosis rate. There was not significant difference between MRI and TRUS. Conclusions As an efficient and important screening method, transabdominal ultrasonography still need to get a higher definite diagnosis rate. TRUS don't have obvious advantages over pelvis MRI in the diagnosis of prostate carcinoma except its usefulness in the biopsy of prostate. Pelvis MRI is still the most important imaging diagnosis of prostate carcinoma and should be first choice because of its noninvasive intervention, convenience and lowest misdiagnosis rate.

Objective To investigate the strategy and efficacy of enteral nutrition support of patients with spontaneous intraventricular hemorrhage-induced coma.Methods 139 patients were randomly divided into study group (treated with enteral nutrition mixed suspension,n =67) and control group (treated with normal full nutritional homogenized product,n =72) with a random number generating software.Enteral nutrition support was administered in 6-48 hours after admission.The total daily intake of enteral nutrition preparation was 1 000 ml (4 186.8 kJ),supplemented by liquid food.Body weight,serum albumin,serum total protein,hemoglobin,lymphocyte count,incidence of infection,level of consciousness and incidence of complications were compared between the two groups.Results In the third week after onset,the serum albumin [(32.1 ± 3.3) g/Lvs.(30.5±2.3) g/L,P=0.041],total protein [(62.2±3.2) g/Lvs.(56.9±2.7) g/L,P=0.039],and hemoglobin [(125.5 ±5.7) g/Lvs.(120.7 ±6.4) g/L,P=0.027] were significantly higher in the study group than in the control group.The Glasgow score in the second week in the study group was 13.1 ± 1.9,significantly higher than that in the control group (11.0 ±2.3) (P =0.037);the incidence of nosocomial infection was significantly lower in the study group than in the control group [17.9％ (12/67) vs.29.2％ (21/72),P =0.021];the proportion of patients with abnormal blood test results and that of patients having fever for more than 7 consecutive days were both significantly lower in the study group than in the control group [31.3％ (21/67) vs.38.8％ (28/72),P=0.042;37.3％ (25/67) vs.41.7％ (30/72),P =0.047].The two groups showed no significant difference in the incidence of intracranial infection after external ventricular drainage (P =0.235).Conclusion For patients with spontaneous intraventricular hemorrhage-induced brain dysfunction,enteral nutrition support with enteral nutrition suspension could effectively improve nutritional status,reduce complications,therefore conducive to recovery.

Objective To investigate the treatment measures of having trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR) for the primary trigeminal neuralgia via microvascular decompression.Methods From January 2016 to December 2016,the clinical data and anesthesia records of 79 consecutive patients with primary trigeminal neuralgia admitted to the Department of Neurosurgery,Xuanwu Hospital,Capital Medical University and treated the first craniotomy microvascular decompression were analyzed retrospectively.They were divided into a no TCR group (n=63) and a TCR group (n=16) according to the intraoperative anesthesia monitoring.The differences of baseline conditions,preoperative complications and pain involved the trigeminal nerve branches were compared between the two groups.The treatment measures and short-term prognosis of the patients with TCR during operation were summarized.Results (1) The proportion of hypertension in the TCR group was 31.2％ (n=5),it was higher than 7.9％ in the no TCR group (n=5).There was significant difference (χ2=6.273,P<0.05).(2) During the operation of microvascular decompression,16 patients in the TCR group had 19-time TCR.The baseline heart rate was 74±10/min before operation,and the heart rate decreased to 51±6/min at onset of TCR.The mean baseline arterial blood pressure was 102±13 mmHg,and the mean arterial blood pressure decreased to 74±8 mmHg at the onset of TCR.There was significant difference (P<0.05).(3) After the onset of TCR,the operation of was stopped,heart rate and the blood pressure recovered spontaneously (n=4).Fifteen patients were treated with medications,including using atropine (12 times,dose 0.2-0.5 mg) and ephedrine hydrochloride (3 times,dose 5-10 mg).Heart rate and blood pressure returned to the baseline level within 20 seconds or 20 seconds after administration of medications.There was no TCR-related cardiac complication or neurological deficit from after procedure to before discharge.Conclusions In microvascular decompression of primary trigeminal neuralgia,if TCR occurs,the selective use of anticholinergic agents or vasoactive agents is needed as early as possible.The risk factors for the occurrence of TCR need to be further verified.

Purpose To explore the image quality, radiation dose and diagnostic accuracy of double flash scanning mode in patients with coronary artery stent. Materials and Methods Sixty-three patients with coronary stents underwent CT coronary artery imaging using conventional coronary artery angiography as the gold standard. Double flash mode was used in patients with heart rate ≤ 70 beats per minute. Spiral scanning was used in patients with heart rate between 70-100 beats per minute. The image quality, vascular CT value, noise, SNR and CNR were compared. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and accuracy were determined, and the radiation dose was calculated. Results There were 59 stents in Double flash group (57 were diagnostic) and 58 stents in spiral group (all diagnostic). There was no statistically significant difference in image quality, CT value, noise, SNR or CNR for the first scan between two groups (P>0.05). Image quality for the second scan in Double flash group showed statistical difference with the first scan and spiral group (P<0.05). The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and accuracy of Double flash and spiral group were 90.0%, 89.8%, 64.3%, 97.8%, 89.8% and 83.3%, 95.7%, 83.3%, 95.7% 93.1%, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and accuracy for stents with diameter ≥ 3.0 mm were significantly higher than stents with diameter <3.0 mm. The radiation doses of Double flash group were significantly lower than the spiral group (P<0.05). Conclusion Double Flash mode scanning provides good image quality and diagnostic accuracy with lower radiation dose in patients with coronary artery stents. Imaging of stents with diameter ≥ 3.0 mm is superior to stents with diameter <3.0 mm.

Objective To investigate the value of brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) in the prediction of hypertension in middle-aged men with prehypertension.Methods A total of 2580 middle-aged (35 to 55 years old ) prehypertensive individuals who underwent health check-up during September 2006 and December 2007 in our hospital were recruited for this prospective cohort study.After a 4-year follow-up,2451subjects entered final analysis.Logistic regression analysis was used to assess the value of baPWV in the prediction of hypertension.Results(1) Two hundred and eight subjects (8.5％ )developed hypertension after 4-year follow-up study.( 2 ) At baseline,no significant differences of family history of hypertension,heart rate and total cholesterol were found between normotensive and hypertensive subjects (P ＞0.05 ).(3) Logistic regression analysis showed that in age-adjusted model (Model1),the odds ratio (OR) and 95％ confidence interval (CI) of baPWV (140 cm/s) was 2.20 (1.78 to 2.62 )( P ＜0.01) ; while in multi-factor adjusted model ( Model 3 ),OR and 95c％c CI of baPWV was I.49 (1.15 to 1.73) (P ＜ 0.01).(4) Subjects were stratified by quartiles of baPWV at baseline.OR and 95％ CI of hypertension in those of highest quartile was higher than those of lowest quartile ( Model1:OR =10.9,95％CI 5.1-22.7,P＜0.01; Model 3:0R=2.6,95％CI1.2 -6.1,P＜0.05).Conclusion baPWV could be an independent predictor of hypertension among prehypertensive populations.
