Objective Our aim is to compare the safety and benefits of laparoscopic versus open incision hernia repair.Methods Forty-seven patients in our hospital were analyzed with prospective randomized double-blind study following either laparoscopic or open hernia repair.And others prospective randomized studies(PRS)were analyzed.Results Overall complication rate was similar in both groups(8.5% versus 9.2% in the laparoscopic and open groups respectively),but some early complications in the laparoscopic group maybe require a reoperation.Operating time was similar in the laparoscopic group.There was shorter length of stay and higher expense in the laparoscopic group and there was significant difference in the pain scores and medications,resumption of diet,or activity scores.At 2 weeks,there was no difference in the activity or pain scores,but physical function and physical health scores on the short-form 36(SF36)quality of life assessment forms were little in the laparoscopic group.Regardless of the technique(P=0.158).The result of PRS meta-analyses is that operating time was simila in the laparoscopic group.There was longer length of stay in the Laparoscopic group.And the rate of wound infection is significantly higher in the open groups.Conclusion Unlike other minimally invasive procedures,Laparoscopic hernia repair did not offer an advantage over open hernia repair in all studied parameters except pain,activities and quality of life scores at 2 weeks.It also took similar to perform.The choice of the procedure should be based on surgeon or patient preference.

The interaction between immune response and metabolic regulation can be viewed as a central homeostatic mechanism,dysfunction of which will lead to many diseases.This nonlinear interaction,which has the characteristic of super-complexity,can’t be controlled unless it is studied as a holism and the change of condition is researched.To study this homeostasis,bottom-up method used in system biology is limited.Ying-wei theory of TCM uses another method to describe di erent states of metabolic and immune systems e ectively.The unique approaches and rich experiences applied in TCM are of great value.

The brain edema is a secondary cerebral injury in intracerebral hemorrhage(ICH) and one of the main causes of deterioration and death.The toxic effect of blood clots is involved in the formation of brain edema.The article reviews the commonly used antiedema drugs including mannitol,glycerol,hypertonic saline,furosemide,albumin,glucocorticoids,sodium aescinate and aprotinin,and introduces such hopeful drugs as edaravone,deferoxamine,argatroban and celecoxib in the treatment of ICH.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of the ultrasonic scalpel and electric knife in open thyroid surgery.Methods The clinical data of 182 patients underwent thyroid surgery were retrospectively analyzed.100 cases in the observation group were used the ultrasonic scalpel surgery and 82 patients in the control group were given electric knife surgery.The average surgical incision length,mean operative time,mean blood loss and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups.Results The average incision length of the observation group was (36.7 ± 6.1)mm,average time of thyroidectomy was (25.3 ± 5.1)min and blood loss was (14.2 ± 5.1)ml,which were significantly lower than those of the control group (P ＜ 0.05).The incidence rate of adverse reaction between the two groups had no significant difference(P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Compared with electric knife,the use of ultrasonic scalpel in thyroid surgery can significantly reduce blood loss,shorten the operation time,the prognosis and clinical efficacy is good,it is worth to be further promoted in clinical.

Objective:To compare the social adaptability of Chinese and Japanese children Method:306 preschool children in Xi'an and 215 Japanese children were sampled The research instrument was the Infant-Junior Middle School Social Adaptive Capacity Scale Result:In the six fields of social adaptability, Chinese children had lower scores than Japanese children, except for that of sports Conclusion:Chinese preschool children have lower social adaptive capacity, which may be due to the overprotective attitude of Chinese parents or grandparents

Objective To study the factors which affect the functional restoration of the elbow for adults with supracondylar or intercondylar fractures of the humerus treated with open reduction and internal fixation. Methods 22 patients with supracondylar or intercondylar fractures of the humerus were treated with open reduction and internal fixation from January, 1999 to December, 2004. They were followed up for an average of 30 months and complete clinical data were kept. The function of the elbow was evaluated with the Mayo elbow performance index. The relationship between the results and the factors —initial time of postoperative rehabilitation, fracture classification, operative approach and interval from injury to operation —were analyzed with cumulative logistic regression model of SAS software V8.2 (SAS institute, Cary, North Carolina). Results Of the 22 cases, 7 were excellent, 9 good, 5 fair and 1 poor. The excellent and good rates were 72.7%. And the odds ratio estimates of the 4 factors were 0.786, 0.299(B/A)0.221(C/A), 1.038, 0.197 respectively. Conclusions The initial time of postoperative rehabilitation, the fracture classification and the interval from injury to operation affect the functional restoration whereas the operative approach does not. Early operation, anatomical reduction, stable fixation and early rehabilitation will help improve the functional restoration.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of MR cholangiopancreatography(MRCP) and volume imaging body exam(VIBE) in the obstructive jaundice.Methods 119 patients with obstructive jaundice underwent MRI examination of upper abdomen using the special sequences of MRCP and VIBE.The qualitative diagnosis of obstructive jaundice was evaluated with MRCP and VIBE in comparison with that of percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography(PTC),endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP) and operation.Results The corresponding diagnostic rate was 94.1% for obstructive jaundice with MRCP and VIBE,of that the corresponding rate in calculus obstruction,malignant obstruction,and the benign obstruction except calculus obstruction was 100%,94.3% and 83.9% respectively.There was significant difference between malignant obstruction and benign obstructive(P

OBJECTIVE To explore the risk factors and countermeasures of burn wound infection.METHODS The data of burn patients in hospital from 2005 to 2007 were retrospectively analyzed.RESULTS From 341 burn patients 257 got infected and total infection rate was 75.4%.Investigation shows that the probability e of infection in 3 days was 12.9%,but the rate became 72.7% after 4 to 10 days.The bigger the wound area,the higher the possibility to got infected.The infection rate was 43.8% when BSA was smaller than 20.0%.When BSA was bigger than 41.0%,the rate was up to 88.0%.When BSA was bigger than 61.0%,the rate was 100.0%.Except that,antibiotics and standard medical performance were the important factors related to burn infection.CONCLUSIONS To strengthen the aseptic concept among medical staff,pay attention to the environment of hospital,and the sterilization of the materials,debridement and drainage in time,and rational usage of antibacterial drugs,are the effective countermeasures to reduce burn wound infection.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the risk factors for nosocomial infection of multidrug-resistant organism (MDRO) in ICU,and to provide reference for preventing and controlling MDRO in ICU. METHODS:In retrospective study,246 patients with nosocomial infection from ICU of Xi'an Aerospace General Hospital (hereinafter referred to asour hospital) during Jan. 2011-Dec. 2015 were selected and divided into non-MDRO infection group (140 cases) and MDRO infection group (106 cases). The detection and drug resistance of MDRO were analyzed in MDRO group. Univariate analysis and binary Logistic regression anal-ysis were used to explore risk factors for nosocomial infection of MDRO. RESULTS:During 2011-2015,435 strains of MDRO were isolated from 106 MDRO infection patients,in which Gram-negative bacteria accounted for 89.43%,showing severe drug re-sistance. Univariate analysis showed that the following 13 factors were related to nosocomial infection of MDRO,such as ICU ad-mission time,hypoproteinemia,acute cerebrovascular diseases,renal abnormalities,mechanical ventilation time,arterivenous cath-eterization time,urethral catheterization time,indwelling gastric tube time,type and time of using antibiotics,combined use of an-tibiotics,application of carbapenems and the third generation caphalosporins(P<0.05). Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that acute cerebrovascular diseases,type and time of using antibiotics were the independent risk factors for nosocomial infection of MDRO in ICU [odds ratios were 2.816,1.582,1.265,95%CI were (1.540,5.151),(1.085,2.306),(1.131,1.415)]. CONCLU-SIONS:Some prevention and control measures should be taken actively for high-risk MDRO infection patients in ICU to reduce the incidence of nosocomial infection of MDRO and improve the quality of health care.
