Objective To compare the efficacy between californium?252 ( 252 Cf ) neutron intraluminal brachytherapy combined with external?beam radiotherapy with lead?shielding pelvic parallel opposing field technique and non?lead?shielding four?field box technique for cervical cancer. Methods A total of 52 patients with stage Ⅱa?Ⅲb cervical squamous cell carcinoma who were admitted to our hospital from 2004 to 2007 were enrolled as subjects and paired by clinical stage, age, tumor size, and degree of anemia. The 26 pairs of patients were divided into lead?shielding pelvic parallel opposing field group (lead?shielding group) and non?lead?shielding four?field box group (non?lead?shielding group). For all patients in both groups, 252 Cf neutron brachytherapy was added in external?beam radiotherapy. The local control (LC), overall survival (OS), and disease?free survival (DFS) rates were calculated using the Kaplan?Meier method and analyzed using the log?rank test. The difference in the incidence of late complications was analyzed using the McNemar method. Results There were significant differences in 5?year LC, OS, and DFS rates between the lead?shielding group and the non?lead?shielding group (85% vs. 81%, P= 0?? 014;89% vs. 73%, P=0?? 013; 89% vs. 73%, P= 0?? 013 ). There was also significant difference in the incidence of late complications between the lead?shielding group and the non?lead?shielding group ( 12% vs. 23%, P=0?? 008). Conclusions When intraluminal brachytherapy combined with external?beam radiotherapy is used to treat cervical cancer, the centers of the front and back fields should be shielded by lead, regardless of whether the parallel opposing field technique or the four?field box technique is used.

Objective To analyze the effect of acromio-humeral interval on the occurrence of subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS) after the clinical application of clavicular hook plate in acromioclavicular joint dislocation (Tossy Ⅲ). Methods From July 2005 to October 2008, 63 cases of acromioclavicular joint dislocation (Tossy Ⅲ) were treated with clavicular hook plate. There were 48 males and 15 females with an average age of 33.6 years (range, 21-53 years). The relationship of the acromio-humeral interval (AHI)were analysed between the two groups by X-ray measurement. The AHI and plate-humeral interval (PHI)were measured on X-ray film to detect difference between the two groups. Results After the operation, all t he 63 cases were divided into two groups according the occurrence of SIS. There were 14 cases in the group of SIS and 49 cases in the group without SIS. The mean follow-up was 12.2 (average, 6-15) months.The average AHI of was (8.5±2.1) mm and (9.7±2.6) mm in the group of SIS and the group without SIS respectively. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant. The average PHI of the group of SIS and the group without SIS was (6.1±2.8) mm and (6.8±2.4) mm respectively. There was no difference between the two groups. After removal of the clavicular hook plate, the clinical sign disappeared in the group of SIS. According the Karlsson scoring system, the excellent and good rate of the shoulder function was 100%. Conclusion The occurrence of SIS after the clinical application of clavicular hook plate has related to the width of the subacromial interval. The syndrome could be treated by the removal of clavicular hook plate.

Objective To investigate the dynamic changes of platelets (PLT) and white blood cells (WBC) after traumatic brain injury (TBI) and discuss its clinical significance. Methods The number of PLT and WBC were examined in 63 patients with TBI by using cytoanalyze and also analyzed together with Glasgow Outcome Scale and concurrent infection, in the meantime, enzyme-linked immu-nosorbent was used to investigate concentration changes of C reactive protein (CRP) and thrombospondin 1 (TSPI) and analyze the correlation between CRP and TSP1. Results The number of WBC in all pa-tients, whether concurred with infection or not, was significantly increased within 24 hours after TBI (P < 0.01), with no statistical difference between patients without infection at day 4 and normal patients (P >0.05). However, the number of WBC was decreased to below 10 × 109/L in patients without infec-tion, which was significantly higher than that in normal patients (P < 0.05). In patients with infection and unfavorable prognosis, the number of WBC was increased again ay days 7-14, whereas that of PLT rose significantly at days 14-21 (P <0. 01). The concentration of TSPI was positively correlated with that of CRP (r = 0.720, P < 0.01). Conclusions Monitoring the dynamic changes of PLT and WBC is promising. The change of WBC at day 4 post injury is a key indicator to provide evidences of prophylactic antibiotic usage. Much attention should be paid to the dynamic change of PLT at days 14-21 post injury so as to evaluate the condition of hypercoagulability that can be potentially caused by inflammation response. Secondary increase of WBC and later increase, of PLT may affect prognosis of the patients. TSP1 and CRP may participate in thrombosis formation induced by inflammation.
