Objective To explore causes and preventive measures of recurrent laryngeal nerve injury during endoscopic thyroidectomy.Methods Clinical data of 3 cases of recurrent laryngeal nerve injury from 101 cases of endoscopic thyroidectomy in this hospital from January 2002 to July 2006 were retrospectively analyzed and summarized.Results There were 3 cases of hoarseness occurred at 24 h after operation.Under indirect laryngoscopy,the unilateral vocal cord was found immobile.The reasons leading to the injury included thermal burn by ultrasound knife in 2 cases and edema compression in 1 case.The injury was transient recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis.The symptoms subsided spontaneously 3 months after operation in 2 cases and 20 days after operation in 1 case,respectively.Conclusions The recurrent laryngeal nerve injury is usually correlated with unskillful use of ultrasound knife.The improvement of surgeon's technique is crucial to reduce the incidence of this complication.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the safety and other related indexes of canagliflozin in the treatment of type 2 diabetes complicated with high risk of cardiovascular disease. METHODS :Totally 306 patients,admitted to Hainan Provincial People ’s Hospital and Haikou People ’s Hospital ,with type 2 diabetes complicated with high risk of cardiovascular disease were selected from Dec. 2018 to Apr. 2019. They were divided into observation group (153 cases)and control group (153 cases)according to random number table . The control group was treated with in sulin,metformin or sulfonylureas conventional hypoglycemic therapy , and the observation group was treated with Canagliflozin tablets 100 mg,once a day ,po,on the basis of control group. The course of treatment was 1 year in both groups. The levels of HbA 1c,BMI,SBP,DBP and eGFR before and after treatment were observed in 2 groups,and the incidence of safety (including death from cardiovascular causes ,myocardial infarction ,ischemic stroke , hospitalization for heart failure and death from any cause etc. ) after treatment and serious ADR/ADE (including hypogly- cemia,diabetic ketoacidosis ,fracture,acute kidney injury 68622942。E-mail:zhaixin0123@126.com etc.)during the treatment were recorded. RESULTS :A total of 5 patients in the control group were not followed up , in which 3 quited and 2 were lost ;and 4 patients in the observation group were not followed up ,in which 1 quited and 3 were lost . Before treatment ,there were no statistical significance in the levels of HbA 1c,BMI,SBP,DBP and eGFR between 2 groups(P>0.05). After treatment ,HbA1c levels of 2 groups,BMI and SBP of observation group were all significantly lower than those before treatment with the same group ;HbA1c level and SBP of observation group were significantly lower than those of control group (P<0.05). eGFR levels of 2 groups after treatment were significantly higher than before treatment with the same group ,while the observation group was significantly higher than that of contrl group. The incidence of death from cardiovascular causes and death from any cause in observation group were significantly lower than control group (P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in other safety indexes and the incidence of serious ADR/ADE between 2 groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS :Canagliflozin can significantly reduce the incidence of death from cardiovascular causes and death from any cause in type 2 diabetes patients complicated with high risk of cardiovascular disease,ameliorate blood glucose and blood pressure ,and do not increase the occurrence of serious ADR/ADE.
