Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of triple needling at myofascial trigger points plus warm needling in treating periarthritis of shoulder. Method Eighty patients with periarthritis of shoulder were randomized into a treatment group of 44 cases and a control group of 40 cases. The treatment group was intervened by triple needling at myofascial trigger points plus warm needling, while the control group was by warm needling alone. The two groups were treated once a day, 10 times as a treatment course. The Pain Rating Index (PRI), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Present Pain Intensity (PPI), and motion of shoulder joint were observed before the treatment and after 2 treatment courses, and the clinical efficacies were compared between the two groups.Result In the treatment group, the PRI, VAS, and PPI scores respectively after 1 and 2 treatment courses were significantly different from those before the treatment (P<0.05,P<0.01). In the control group, the scores after 2 treatment courses were significantly different from those before the treatment (P<0.05). After 2 treatment courses, the scores in the treatment group were significantly different from those in the control group (P<0.01). In both groups, the motions of shoulder joint respectively after 1 and 2 treatment courses were significantly changed compared with those before the treatment (P<0.01). The motions of shoulder joint in the treatment group were significantly different from those in the control group respectively after 1 and 2 treatment courses (P<0.05,P<0.01). The recovery plus markedly-effective rate and total effective rate were respectively 70.5% and 95.5% in the treatment group, versus 52.5% and 90.0% in the control group, and the between-group differences were statistically significant (P<0.01,P<0.05).Conclusion Triple needling at myofascial trigger points plus warm needling is an effective approach in treating periarthritis of shoulder.

Objective To investigate the treatment effect of the proximal humeral internal locking system (PHIL()S) on the elderly patients with displaced proximal humeral fractures.MethodsFrom Feb 2004 to Mar 2007, 36 patients (mean age: 72.2 years) with proximal humeral fractures were treated with PHILOS plate fixation which included 14 cases with 2-part, 17 cases with three-part and 5 cases with four-part fractures according to Neer classification.Operation time,intraoperative blood loss, blood transfusion, perioperative complications and function evaluation of the operated shoulder joint were calculated with 14.5 months follow-up at average.Results The average operation time and blood loss were (61.5± 11.6) min and ( 165.2±91.2) ml, respectively. 1 case with accidents of blood vessel and 1 case with pneumonia were found without neurovascular injuries. All fractures were radiographically healed in an average of 3-5 months.No necrosis of humeral head appeared and 30 (83.3%) cases were excellent or good according to Neer scoring system. Two part fracture and early operation ( within 3 days after operation) might improve the postoperative function of shoulder joint, but the patient's age, gender and ASA score were not statistically with Neer score.Conclusions PHILOS plate fixation is a suitable procedure for displaced proximal humeral fractures via stable fixation and early rehabilitation, especially for elderly patients combined with osteoporosis.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between levels of plasma thrombopoietin(TPO) and thrombocytopenia.Methods:Sixty-eight thrombocytopenia with different causes were injected with rhIL-11 domestically made, by 25 ?g/(kg?d) for 10 days continuously. The plasma TPO levels were determined by quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique in thrombocytopenic patients between before and after treatment.Results:(1)The serum TPO controls of patients with thrombocytopenia after acute leukemia(AL) chemotherapy were lower than normal controls. The plasma TPO levels in aplastic anemia(AA) and myelodysplastic syndrome(MDS) patients were all elevated compared to those in normal controls.The serum TPO levels in patients with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura(ITP) and liver cirrhosis had no difference with the normals. Bone marrow megakaryocytes(MK) count in after chemotherapy AL and AA patients were lower than those with normal serum TPO levels controls. (2)In all above patients used interleukin-11(rhIL-11), their TPO levels were close to normal in efficiency patients. On the contrary, their TPO did not change dramatic. Those react to rhIL-11, their TPO levels were inversely correlated with platelet count.Conclusion:Testing serum TPO levels would be helpful for distinguish the thrombocytopenia with different causes, and provides theorical support to patients to use rhIL-11 reasonably.
