Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of acupuncture at Xinming points (Extra) plus strong rein-forcing mani- pulation in treating optic atrophy.Methods Forty (56 eyes) optic atrophy patients were randomly allocated to a treatment group of 20 cases (29 eyes) and a control group of 20 cases (27 eyes). The control group received conventional medications, and the treatment group received acupuncture at Xinming points (Extra) plus strong reinforcing manipulation in addition. The visual acuity, the mean visual sensitivity (MS) of visual field and the P100 wave latency of P-VEP were recorded in the two groups before and after the treatment. The clinical therapeutic effects were compared between the two groups.Results The visual acuity, the MS of visual field and the P100 wave latency of P-VEP were significantly changed after treatment in both two groups (P<0.05). After the treatment, there were statistically significant differences in the visual acuity, the MS of visual field and the P100 wave latency of P-VEP between the two groups (P<0.05). The total efficacy rate was 75.0% in the treatment group versus 35.0% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusions Acupuncture at Xinming points (Extra) plus strong reinforcing manipulation is an effective method for optic atrophy.

Objective To review the diagnosis and treatment of squamous cell carcinoma of renal pelvis. Methods The clinical data from October 1991 to May 2009 of eight cases of squamous cell carcinoma of renal pelvis were reviewed and analyzed retrospectively. The symptoms of the patients were hematuria (eight cases), pain (seven cases) and abdominal mass (one case). All patients underwent B-ultrasound and IVU examination and four cases underwent CT scan. Three cases were diagnosed as having a tumor before surgery. Five cases were diagnosed as renal calculus, two of the five cases were diagnosed by intraoperative frozen section. Radical nephroureterectomy were performed in four cases, nephrectomy in three cases and palliative resection in one case. Results Histological classification revealed that six cases were moderately differentiated, one case was well differentiated and one case was poorly differentiated. Two cases had stage pT1/pT2 and six cases had stage pT3/pT4. 2 cases had regional lymph nodes metastasis. Seven cases were followed-up. All patients died of tumor recurrence or metastasis. The median tumor specific survive time was six months (range from two months to 42 months). Conclusions Squamous cell carcinoma of renal pelvis is often occurs concurrently with urolithiasis which could lead to difficulty in diagnose before operation. As the most of the patients were diagnosed with advanced stage disease, squamous cell carcinoma of renal pelvis tended to early recurrence and metastasis and the prognosis was very poor.

Objective To analyze the value of cerebral coronary view of nose tip deflection in screening fetal facial deformity in the first and second trimester. Methods All cases were divided into the 11~12+6 weeks, the 13 ~ 14+6 weeks and the 15 ~ 16+6 weeks undergone ultrasonographic examination on coronal view of nose tip deflection. The display of fetal facial structure and the detection rate of fetal facial malformation were analyzed. Results The fetal facial anatomic structures were clearly displayed. The median sagittal section ,eyes level coronal section ,retronasal triangle section ,or other sections were satisfactory in 4855 cases (97.10%). There was no Statistical difference in the display of fetal facial structures among the three groups. 69 fetus were found with facial malformations,including 31 fetus with facial malformations only,and 38 fetus combined with other abnormal struc-tures. The sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 93.24%,100%, 100% and 99.90% respectively. Conclusion The cerebral coronary view of nose tip deflection method has high detection rate and sensitivity,and is a reliable method for detecting fetal facial abnormalities in the first and second trimester.

Objective:
To evaluate the treatment of complex acetabular fractures involving the posterior column by anterograde lag screws via the ilioinguinal approach.
Methods:
A retrospective study was conducted of the 8 patients with complex acetabular fracture involving the posterior column who had been treated at Department of Orthopaedics, The Second Affiliated Hospital to Inner Mongolia Medical University from January 2017 to June 2018. They were 5 males and 3 females, aged from 35 to 62 years (average, 43.5 years). According to the Letournel-Judet classification, 3 cases were T-shaped fractures, 4 anterior column plus posterior hemitransverse fractures and one both column fracture. The interval from injury to operation averaged 8 days (from 7 to 17 days). The anterior acetabulum was fixated by a reconstruction plate and the posterior column by antegrade lag screws, all through the ilioinguinal approach. The quality of fracture reduction, fracture union time, function of the affected hip and complications were recorded.
Results:
By the Matta imaging criteria, the quality of fracture reduction was rated as excellent in 7 cases and as fine in one. Intraoperative major hemorrhage or injury to sciatic nerve occurred in none of the patients. This cohort obtained an average follow-up of 8 months (from 6 to 18 months). All fractures united well after an average of 10 weeks (from 8 to 12 weeks). The function of affected hip evaluated by the improved Merle d’Aubigne & Postel criteria at the last follow-up was excellent in 7 cases and fine in one. Follow-ups revealed no incidence of deep vein thrombosis or heterotopic ossification.
Conclusions
For patients with complex acetabular fracture involving the posterior column, internal fixation of the anterior acetabulum with a reconstruction plate through the ilioinguinal approach and fixation of the posterior column with antegrade lag screws also through the ilioinguinal approach can result in fine therapeutic effects, because complications like ectopic ossification and sciatic nerve injury related to the Kocher-Langenbeck approach can be prevented. This treatment is particularly suitable for the patients whose condition of the soft tissues at the posterior pelvis is poor.

Objective To analyze the incidence trend of hand-foot-mouth disease (HFMD) and its correlation with meteorological factors in Children in Kaizhou District, Chongqing from 2018 to 2021, and to provide a theoretical basis for the diagnosis and treatment of HFMD in children. Methods The HFMD epidemic information was collected from 2018 to 2021 in Kaizhou District of Chongqing by using the China Disease Surveillance Information and Report Management System. The epidemiological characteristics of HFMD were descriptively analyzed, and the correlation between HFMD incidence and meteorological factors was analyzed by multiple regression. Results A total of 5 121 HFMD cases were reported in Kaizhou District of Chongqing from 2018 to 2021, with an average annual incidence of 143.30/100 000. The incidence of HFMD fluctuated from 120.87/100,000 to 159.78/100,000 from 2018 to 2021, showing a downward trend year by year. There were 2929 males and 2192 females with HFMD. The incidence of HFMD was the highest in early childhood (70.13/100 000), followed by pre-school age (43.06/100 000). There was significant difference in the incidence of HFMD among different age groups (χ2=53.497, P<0.05). The cases were mainly scattered children (3127 cases, 61.06%). The second was nursery children (1627 cases, 31.77%). In addition, there were 289 cases of students (5.64%). There were 1084 laboratory-confirmed cases in Kaizhou District of Chongqing from 2018 to 2021, including 269 (24.82%) children with EV71 infection, 178 (16.42%) children with Cox A16 infection, and 637 (58.76%) children with other enterovirus infections. There were significant differences in pathogen composition among different years (Z=32.75, P<0.05). From 2018 to 2021, the proportion of EV71 increased year by year, while COX16 and other enterovirus infections showed a downward trend year by year. Average daily temperature (OR=1.873) and average daily pressure (OR=-1.498) were independent risk factors for HFMD in Kaizhou District of Chongqing (P<0.05). Conclusion The reported incidence of HFMD in Kaizhou District of Chongqing shows a decreasing trend, and the incidence is closely related to temperature and atmospheric pressure. It is still necessary to strictly implement the prevention and control measures in key population in the season of high incidence. The main virus is EV71, which can be vaccinated with EV71 HFMD vaccine to reduce the occurrence of severe cases.

OBJECTIVETo study the primary and secondary factors of the allergic history, the frequency of acupoint application and the time of acupoint application in the treatment of bronchial asthma and optimize its scheme.
METHODSEighty patients of bronchial asthma were selected as the subjects in the orthogonal trial. The herbal medicines were the empirical formula of acupoint application (prepared at the ratio as 2:2:1:1:1:1:1:1:1 of,, unprocessed,,,,,and) and used on bilateral Feishu (BL 13), Xinshu (BL 15), Geshu (BL 17) and Shenshu (BL 23). Firstly, two groups were divided according to allergic history (40 cases with allergic history and 40 cases without allergic history), and then four subgroups were divided on the basis of the two main groups, 10 cases in each one. Through studying three factors and two levels, i.e. allergic history (Factor A:A:with allergic history; A:without allergic history), the frequency of acupoint application (Factor B:B:4 times; B:10 times, in which, in the group of 4-time applications, the application was given once every 10 days; in the group of 10-time applications, the application was given once every 4 days); and the time of application (Factor C:C:4 h; C:8 h), the optimal scheme was screened on the basis of the attack frequency before and after treatment and the score of the asthma quality life questionnaire (AQLQ) before treatment and 6 months after treatment in the patients of each group.
RESULTS① The orthogonal trial indicated that the best optimal scheme was ABC, meaning the patients with allergic history were treated with acupoint application for 10 times, remained for 4 h. ②Factor B (frequency of acupoint application) and C (time of acpoint application) were the significant influential factors of AQLQ scores (both<0.05). ③The comparison of the attack frequency and AQLQ score before and after treatment in all of the patients showed that the different combinations of factor levels induced the different impacts on the asthma attack frequency and AQLQ scores. Except in the group No.1 and the group No.5, the improvements were all significant in the rest groups, indicating the significant differences (<0.05,<0.01).
CONCLUSIONSAcupoint application reduces apparently the attack frequency of asthma in the patients and improves the living quality. The primary and secondary relationship among the allergic history, the frequency of acupoint application and the time of acupoint application for the impacts on the therapeutic effects are:the frequency of acupoint application > the time of acupoint application > the allergic history. The best optimal scheme is ABC, meaning the patients with allergic history are treated with acupoint application for 10 times, remained for 4h.

Objective To investigate the death prognosis and risk factors of extensively drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii in hospitalized elderly patients with hematological infection, so as to facilitate clinical prevention and treatment. Methods The elderly (> 80 years old) hospitalized patients with hematological infection in our hospital from 2015 to 2021 were selected for analysis. Firstly, 314 patients with extensively drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii hematological infection were distinguished by etiological analysis. A total of 98 cases of death were detected during hospitalization (later referred to as the observation group). By comparing with the surviving patients (216 cases) (later referred to as the control group), the general data of patients with XDRAB infection were collected, and the risk of death and its influencing factors were analyzed. Results In the study, the proportion of patients in the observation group who used catheters was higher, the catheter retention time was longer, the acute physiology and chronic health status II scores were higher, and the proportion of patients who lost self-care ability was also higher. Conclusion The death of blood borne infection of extensively drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii in elderly patients is affected by many factors. Among them, patients who use catheters for a long time, have poor self-care ability and lose self-care ability have a higher risk of death, which is worthy of clinical attention.
