Objective To evaluate the diagnosis and surgical management of appandiceal mucoceles.Method The clinical data of 50 patients with appendiceal mucoceles surgically treated from January 2004 to January 2008 were reviewed retrospectively. Result The correct preoperative diagnosis rate was 8%.Eight patients were complicated with pseudomyxoma peritonei.The canceration rate was 4%.All the 50 patients recovered uneventfully after the surgery.There was no complications,no recurrence during the follow-up period,including the 2 patients with canceration. Conclusion It was difficult to make correct diagnosis of appendiceal mucoceles preoperatively.The diagnosis should always be in mind if the B-type ultrasonography indicated a cystoadenoma.Abdominal CT coupled with necessary digestive image examinations may improve the correct diagnosis rate.Some patients may be complicated with pseudomyxoma peritonei.Occasionally this abdominal mass was also associated with malignancy.Surgery is the management of choice,and the prognosis is good.

[Objective]To study the application and clinical results of the adjustable erternal fixation of ankle joint(AEFA) in orthopedic surgery.[Method]From January 1999 to May 2005,45 cases(55 feet)of equinovarus deformity were treated with orthopedic surgery.In order to preventent the deformity relapsion,the patients were assigned to two groups.The A group(26 cases,32 feet)patients were treated with the adjustable erternal fixation of ankle joint(AEFA).The B group(19 cases,23 feet)patients were treated with plaster immobilization.The orthopedic surgery effect and functions of ankle joint were studied and tested with independent sample t test and x~2 test.[Result]Thirty-eight cases were fellowed-up for 3 months to 9 years(averaged 19 months).There were significant difference between the two groups in the functions of ankle joint.[Conclusion]The new apparatus can effectively prevent the foot-drop deformity and enhance the function of ankle joint.

The author proposed detailed introduction of handling of complications in the Australian AR-DRGs program,introduced considerations of complications by AR-DRGs from two aspect-the level of disease complications and the complexity of clinical treatments.The authors specifically described CCL and PCCL evaluations.This paper provides reference for the localization of DRGs program design.

ObjectiveTo investigate the causes, operation time, and microscopic repairing procedures of contusive iridodialysis. Methods23cases(23 eyes) who had partial iridodialysis due to contusions of the eyeballs underwent the microscopic repair during 7 to 18 days after injury. Viscoelastic agent and other auxiliary devices were used in the operation. ResultsAll eyes were fully corrected with approximate round-shaped pupils and their visual function improved. 1 eye with raised intraocular pressure was performed with trabeculectomy. ConclusionTimely repair of partial iridodialysis performed under microscope was safe and effective.

Objective: To investigate the characteristics of Behavior Styles personality dimension among subjects of dif- ferent age, genders, marriage status, and occupations. Methods: After subjects fulfilled Chinese Personality Scale (QZPS), score differences of Behavior Styles and its sub- factors were compared among age, genders, marriage status, and occupa- tions. Results: Significant differences were detected among different age, genders, and occupations. Males have lower scores than females; the elder the subjects, the higher the scores; executives and technicians have the same scores, and both have higher scores than workers and peasants. Some interactions were also significant. Conclusion: There were sig- nificant differences among subjects of different gender, age, and occupation.

Co-citation analysis, co-word analysis and strategic coordinates are combined to make known the subject theme evolu-tion. The research history of general surgery is described by eo-citation eluster analysis, citation strategic diagram is pictured by the theory of strategy coordinates to learn more about the novelty and attention of each hot topic. The present research focused on general surgery that would be found by co-words cluster analysis, and stages of development about each topic are discussed by strategic coordinates based of cluster results. It is helpful to provide a decision-making reference for professionals and managers.

By collecting literatures on apoplexy recorded in"Database of Basic TCM disease"from 2001 to 2005,we statistically analyzed changes on volume of documents,major authors,major journals,and contents of study in these literatures.

Continuous renal replacement therapy( CRRT) employs convection and adsorption to re-move pro-and anti-inflammatory mediators from plasma, helping to restore the immunologic homeostasis. CRRT also provide uninterrupted clearance of retained endogenous and exogenous toxins, along with acid-base,electrolyte,hemodynamics and volume homeostasis.CRRT may improve outcomes in critically ill pa-tients with sepsis-induced acute kidney injury,septic shock and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome.Region-al citrate anticoagulation, as compared to unfractionated heparin, report better filter survival times and less bleeding.Antibiotic dosing decisions should be individualized to take into account patient-related,CRRT-relat-ed,and drug-related factors.

Objective To systematically analyze therapeutic effects of extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) on refractory steroid-resistant,-dependent or-intolerant graft-versus-host disease (GVHD),to compare remission rates of skin GVHD in detail.Methods Databases were searched for studies concerning remission rates of GVHD after the treatment with ECP,and relevant data were extracted and pooled by using meta-analysis with STATA 12.0 software.Results A total of 22 literatures were reviewed,including 787 patients with refractory GVHD.Meta-analysis showed that the pooled complete remission (CR) rate and overall remission (OR) rate were 57％ (95％ CI:47％-66％) and 79％ (71％-86％) respectively in patients with acute GVHD,27％ (21％-33％) and 63％ (58％-69％) respectively in patients with chronic GVHD,77％ (71％-82％) and 87％ (82％-91％) in patients with acute skin GVHD,as well as 39％ (30％-48％) and 70％ (63％-77％) in patients with chronic skin GVHD.Conclusion ECP is an effective therapy for refractory GVHD,especially for skin GVHD.

Objective To explore the changes of the levels of CA-125 antigen(CA125) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in serum and peritoneal fluid in patients with endometriosis (EMT), and the relationship with EMT. Methods One hundred and twenty patients with EMT (EMT group)and 98 patients with uterine fibroids (control group) were enrolled in this study. The levels of CA125 and VEGF in serum and peritoneal fluid were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the results were compared. Results The levels of serum CA125,VEGF in EMT group were significantly higher than those in control group:(40.31±11.14) kU/L vs.(24.71±9.19) kU/L,(59.75±6.87) ng/L vs. (36.38±8.12) ng/L, there were significant differences(P<0.05). The levels of serum CA125,VEGF inⅠ-Ⅱphase andⅢ-Ⅳphase in EMT group had no significant differences ( P>0.05). The levels of peritoneal fluid CA125,VEGF in EMT group were significantly higher than those in control group:(311.46± 107.29) kU/L vs.(158.17± 55.42) kU/L,(73.28 ±10.40) ng/L vs. (40.21 ±9.84) ng/L, there were significant differences (P<0.05). The levels of peritoneal fluid CA125,VEGF in Ⅲ-Ⅳ phase were significantly higher than those in Ⅰ-Ⅱ phase in EMT group:(387.41±70.91) kU/L vs. (308.42±81.21) kU/L, (69.22±7.13) ng/L vs. (55.44±8.23) ng/L, there were significant differences (P<0.05). In EMT group, the levels of CA125 and VEGF in serum were significantly lower those in peritoneal fluid:(40.31±11.14) kU/L vs. (311.46±107.29) kU/L, (59.75±6.87) ng/L vs. (73.28 ±10.40) ng/L, there were significant differences (P<0.05). Conclusions The levels of CA125 and VEGF in serum and peritoneal fluid are closely related to EMT. Peritoneal fluid in monitoring of EMT may be more sensitive and reliable than serum.
