1.Clinical observation of coflex interspinous dynamic internal fixation to treat degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis
Clinical Medicine of China 2011;27(6):631-634
Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of coflex interspinous dynamic fixation device implantation in the lumbar spinal stenosis. Methods Eighty-three patients with lumbar spinal stenosis were randomly divided into two groups, and 80 cases were followed up. Coflex group (38 patients) received coflex implantation,posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) group(42 patients) received PLIF treatment. Indicators of surgical trauma degree (operation time, blood loss volume, wound drainage volume within 48 hours, incision pain (VAS) score after surgery 3 days,postoperative ambulation time),indicators of clinical effect (waist and leg pain VAS scores,Japan Orthopaedic Association JOA score,Oswestry functional disability index ODI score),intervertebral space height and median sagittal diameter (MSO) were measured and compared between the two groups. Results In the Coflex group, the operation time, blood loss volume, wound drainage volume within 48 hours, incision pain (VAS) score after surgery 3 days,postoperative ambulation time were (104.3 ±9.5) min,(230. 7 ±29.6) ml,(110. 6 ±34. 5)ml,3. 2 ±1.3, (13. 6 ±2.0) d,which were significantly lower than those of (174. 6 ±24. 2) min,(536. 8 ±163.3) ml, (319. 2 ± 142. 8) ml,4. 8 ±2. 7, (15. 7 ±2. 6) d in the PLIF group(t= 16. 720,11. 380,8. 771,3. 320,4.018,Ps <0. 01). In the back and leg pain VAS score,JOA score,ODI score,intervertebral height and MSD,indicators after surgery were significantly improved than before surgery in both groups(Ps <0. 01). There were no significant difference before and after treatment 12 months in both groups (Ps >0. 05) on severe complications such as internal fixation loosening and spinous process fractures.Conclusion The two surgical methods both can effectively increase the foraminal area and intervertebral height to maintain the stability of the spinal posterior colum. However, Coflex interspinous dynamic fixation device implantation had more advantages,such as shorter operation time,less bleeding,less trauma,and early functional exercises.
2.Current research in herpetic keratitis following excimer laser corneal refractive keratectomy
Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2011;29(12):1149-1152
Herpes simplex virus infection after excimer laser corneal refractive surgery often leads to serious complications,and the main reasons to induce the infection of herpes simplex virus are:irradiation of excimer laser and stimulation of corneal by surgery;long-term topical administration of steroids eye drops,or the interaction of all above factors.Once the herpetic keratitis appears,early and correct diagnosis and management are critical for rescuing the visual acuity.The laboratory assay methods,such as serum antibody,virus culture,corneal epithelial scraping,pathological examination,polymerase chain reaction ( PCR ),can be used for the assistance of diagnosis but each methods has their own limitation ; it is recognized that the multiplex PCR seem to become more sensitive.The primary treatment method for the infection of herpes simplex virus is to use the anti-virus drug topical or systemically after excimer laser corneal refractive keratectomy.the topical use of antivirus drugs in perioperation period for patients with history of herpetic keratitis can reduce the recurrence.This paper summarized the progress in clinical and experimental researches and review the etiology,diagnosis,treatment and prevention of herpetic keratitis following excimer laser corneal refractive surgery in recent years.
3.A Four-year Review of Delayed Initial Treatment of Patients with Congenital Talipes equinovarus in a General Hospital
Malaysian Orthopaedic Journal 2015;9(1):11-13
Congenital Talipes Equinovarus (CTEV), or club foot, is a
common congenital orthopaedic abnormality of the foot. ,
which is easily diagnosed but difficult to treat perfectly.
Controversy in terms of its etiology, classification and
management continues to exist. Delayed initial treatment in
patients with clubfoot has a strong correlation with a poor
outcome. The purpose of this study was to review the
factors that influence the outcome in patients who get
delayed initial treatment at Hasan Sadikin General Hospital
so that poor outcome can be prevented. We reviewed the
medical records of 15 patients (23 feet) during the period
from January 2009 to December 2013 and analysed various
factors including gender, age at time of first treatment, type
of disorder, the level of success of non-surgical therapy,
parent education level, family income and accessibility to
health care centre. CTEV was more common in girls in our
patients who were in the 6-12 months age group. The most
common type of CTEV was the flexible type. Treatment
with serial casting produced good results in most patients.
The majority of parents’ educational level was junior high
school and had 2-5 million/month income. The accessibility
of patients to health care centre was difficult.

Journal of Interventional Radiology 2006;0(09):-
Objective To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and complications of fluoroscopically guided double balloon dilation in the treatment of benign colorectal anastomotic strictures. Methods Under fluoroscopic guidance, 17 patients with benign colorectal anastomotic strictures underwent transanal double balloon dilation, including 13 patients underwent resection for malignant disease, and 4 for benign conditions. 16 out of 17 patients had difficulty or frequent defecation due to partial obstruction. The remaining one patient had the stricture detected by endoscopy and barium enema after total proctocolectomy and a temporary ileostomy for ulcerative colitis. Therapeutic efficacy and complications were evaluated in the follow-up visits. Results Seventeen patients received double balloon dilation in a single session. The diameter of double balloon catheter was arranged from 30 to 40 mm. Technical success achieved in all 17 patients with complete release (n = 12, 71%) or incomplete one (n = 5, 29%) and 100% improvement of symptoms was achieved in all patients, together with no major complications such as perforation or severe hemorrhage. During the mean follow-up of 23 months (range, 1 - 62 months), one patient (6%) developed a recurrent stricture and needed a second balloon dilation six months after the initial balloon dilation. Conclusions Fluoroscopically guided double balloon dilation is an effective and safe method for treating benign colorectal anastomotic strictures. (J Intervent Radiol, 2006, 15: 543-546)

8.DNA methyltransferases in cancer development, treatment and prognosis
Journal of International Oncology 2010;37(10):731-734
Overexpression of DNA methyltransferases(DNMTs)is observed in many tumors. Overexpressed DNMTs silence tumor suppressor genes by catalyzing the methylation of CpG islands within the promoter regions, and therefore promote the neoplastic transformation of normal cells. Highly elevated DNMT activities have been observed in cancers including gastrointestinal cancers, breast cancer, and lung cancer and have been associated with cancer development and prognosis. Drugs and targeted therapies that inhibit DNMT activities can reactivate methylated tumor suppressor genes, promote apoptosis, and thus inhibit tumor growth.
