OBJECTIVE:To observe the occurrence of paclitaxel(PTX)-induced muscle soreness and therapeutic efficacy and safety of diclofenac sodium. METHODS:Among 84 patients with malignant tumor receiving PTX chemotherapy,56 patients suf-fered from PTX-induced muscle soreness,among which 22 female patients suffered from medium and severe muscle soreness and then were randomly divided into group A and B,with 11 cases in each group. Group A was given Diclofenac sodium sustained-re-lease tablet 75 mg orally,once a day;group B was given Paracetamol and tramadol hydrochloride tablets one tablet orally,once a day,and then given Promethazine hydrochloride injection 100 mg subcutaneously,2-3 times a day when muscle soreness could not be born. Treatment course of both groups lasted for 5 d. The distribution of muscle soreness were observed. The onset time and dura-tion of muscle soreness were also observed as well as pain relief and the occurrence of ADR in group A and B. RESULTS:Among 84 cases,the incidence of muscle soreness was 66.67%,among which mild pain accounted for 23.81%,moderate pain accounted for 13.10%,and severe pain accounted for 29.76%. Among 56 patients with muscle soreness,earliest muscle soreness occurred on the day of medication,and most of muscle soreness occurred on 1-3 days after medication,mainly manifesting as sore,activity limitation when severe,associated with fatigue. The pain relief rate of group A and B were 100%,but the incidence of adverse re-actions in group A was significantly lower than group B,with statistical significances(P<0.05).CONCLUSIONS:Diclofenac sodi-um is similar to paracetamol and tramadol hydrochloride in the treatment of PTX-induced muscle soreness,but it is better than paracetamol and tramadol hydrochloride in safety.

OBJECTIVETo identify the initial effect of dynamic interspinous implant of Coflex on the treatment of lumbar spinal stenosis.
METHODSA retrospective study of 18 patients who underwent posterior lumbar decompression and fixation with interspinous implant of Coflex between March 2008 and October 2009 was taken to compare the Cobb angel of nature and dynamic position on the segment of Coflex fixation at the time of before and after operation and following time,including 10 males and 8 females with average age of 62.2 years old (54 to 71 years). The symptoms of patients included chronic lower back pain and intermittent claudication and lower extremity numbness. All cases including 17 cases of L4,5 and 1 case of L3,4 were central canal stenosis without obviously segmental instability. Clinical outcomes were evaluated with VAS and ODI.
RESULTSAll patients were followed up from 10 to 18 months with an average of 14.4 months. There did not about internal fixation failure. It was found that postoperative Cobb angel of fixation segment [(12.1 +/- 2.6) degrees] was significantly decreased than preoperative [(14.8 +/- 3.2) degrees] (t = 2.61, P = 0.03). But the Cobb angel [(14.9 +/- 4.1) degrees] increased at final follow-up, even reached the level of before operation (t = 1.39, P = 0.65). The Cobb angle of upper adjacent segment did not obviously change in preoperation, postoperation and final follow-up [(12.1 +/- 2.3) degrees, (12.3 +/- 3.2) degrees, (11.9 +/- 3.0) degrees, respectively]. Dynamic measure showed that Coflex can adequately limit the ROM of extension (t = 4.01, P = 0.001), but the ROM of flexion increased (t = 2.57, P = 0.02). The VAS score in follow-up (2.2 +/- 0.7) was significantly decreased than before operation (4.9 +/- 1.1, t = 2.95, P = 0.02). The ODI score in follow-up [(29.1 +/- 9.0)%] was significantly decreased than before operation [(56.5 +/- 14.2)%, (t = 3.02, P = 0.02)].
CONCLUSIONThe Coflex implanting combined with decompression can get good result clinically, but imaging showed that Coflex can not maintain the relatively kyphosis gained after operation except for extension limitation.
