BACKGROUND:Bryan cervical disc replacement and anterior cervical discectomy and fusion have a dispute in the treatment of cervical spondylosis.
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the clinical effects of Bryan cervical disc replacement and anterior cervical discectomy and fusion by meta-analysis, thereby providing clinical evidence for treatment strategy of cervical spondylosis.
METHODS:The authors searched Medline, PubMed, EMBASE, OVID, CBM, CNKI and also searched manual y seven relevant Chinese orthopedic journals for articles pertinent to clinical research of Bryan cervical disc replacement and anterior cervical discectomy and fusion. Extracted data included the range of motion of the cervical spine, visual analog scale score, neck disability index, the Japanese Orthopaedic Association score. Meta-analysis and forest plots were conducted with RevMan4.2.2 Software.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There are eight articles in the meta-analysis, including 883 patients (430 patients receiving Bryan cervical disc replacement, and 453 patients receiving anterior cervical discectomy and fusion). Meta-analysis did detect statistical y significant differences in the range of motion of the cervical spine at 3 months and 24 months postoperatively between the two groups, but did not detect statistical y significant differences in visual analog scale score, neck disability index, the Japanese Orthopaedic Association score between the two groups. These findings indicate that Bryan cervical disc replacement is superior to anterior cervical discectomy and fusion in the range of motion of the cervical spine. However, the current literature offers no evidence to support superiority of the Bryan cervical disc replacement over the anterior cervical discectomy and fusion.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effects of topical administration of phenytoin ( PHT) on wound healing. Methods:The clinical trials on PHT topically used for wound healing were collected from Cocharne Library and PubMed ( from database establish-ment to May, 2016. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5. 0 software and Stata 12. 0 software. Results:A total of 15 stud-ies involving 1 048 patients were included. Topical PHT treatment was significantly associated with complete healing rate (OR=3. 28, 95%CI:1. 23-8. 75, P=0. 02), production rate of health granulation tissue (OR=2. 18,95%CI:1. 33-3. 59, P=0. 002) and aver-age percentage reduction of wound surface size (SMD=1. 77, 95%CI:0. 53-3. 02, P<0. 000 01). However, heterogeneity existed in complete healing rate and average percentage reduction of wound surface size among the studies. Meta-regression analysis showed that wound types (P=0. 02) and treatment periods(P=0. 08) were associated with the heterogeneity of complete healing rate outcomes, and mean age was associated with the heterogeneity of average percentage reduction of wound surface size(P=0. 07). Conclusion:Meta-analysis suggests that topical PHT treatment has significant positive clinical effect on wound healing. There is heterogeneity among the studies, so topical PHT treatment still should be applied in clinical practice prudently.

Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of pediatric massage (tuina) for chronic cough in children. Methods: A total of 96 cases were randomized into a control group and an observation group, with 48 cases in each group. Cases in the control group received routine pediatric massage manipulations. Cases in the observation group received additional Mo-rubbing abdomen manipulation. The treatment was done 3 times a week and 12 times made up a treatment session. The cough symptom scores were evaluated before treatment and after 3, 6, 9 and 12 treatments respectively. Results: There were 8 dropouts in the observation group and 5 dropouts in the control group. Before treatment, there was no statistical difference in coughing score between the two groups (P>0.05). After 9 times of treatment, the total coughing scores were significantly reduced in both groups (both P<0.05); however, there were no statistical differences between the two groups in the score differences between before treatment and after 3, 6 and 9 times of treatment (all P>0.05). After 12 times of treatment, the total coughing scores were significantly reduced in both groups (both P<0.05), along with a statistical difference between the two groups in the score difference between before treatment and after 12 times of treatment (P<0.05). There was a statistical difference between the two groups in overall response (P<0.05). The total effective rate in the observation group was 92.5%, versus 86.0% in the control group, showing a statistical difference (P<0.05). Conclusion: The routine pediatric massage manipulations alone or in combination with Mo-rubbing abdomen manipulation both can significantly improve chronic cough in children; however, the combination obtains a better effect.
