Objective To sum up clinical experiences of intractable temporal lobe epilepsy by microsurgery. Methods A retrospective review was conducted in 50 cases with epilepsy,and temporal lobe was resected by microsurgery from June 1996 to Oct. 2003. Results Follow-up patients from six months to five years.The follow up showed healing outcome in 25 cases,good results in 13 cases,unsatisfactory outcome in 9 cases,no improvement in 3 cases.Slight paresis 6 cases,divagation 8 cases,psychosis 5 cases and no death case. Conclusions Application of microsurgery can obvously improve the clinical result of patients with temporal lobe epilepsy and decrease the complication after operation.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of irinotecan combined with capecitabine or tegafur-gimeracil-oteracil potassium in the second-line treatment of advanced colorectal cancer. Methods The clinical data of 19 patients with advanced colorectal cancer who were admitted to the Cancer Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College from October 2014 to December 2017 were retrospectively analyzed, and these patients failed the first-line chemotherapy regimen. All patients were treated with irinotecan plus capecitabine or tegafur-gimeracil-oteracil potassium. The patient's short-term efficacy, adverse reactions, progression-free survival, and overall survival were analyzed. Results After treatment, the efficacy in 18 of the 19 patients with advanced colorectal cancer was evaluable, including partial remission in 3 patients, stable disease in 13 patients, and disease progression in 2 patients. The objective remission rate was 16.7% (3/18), the disease control rate was 88.9% (16/18), the median progression-free survival time was 7.6 months, and the median overall survival time was 23.3 months. All of the patients were well tolerated , and the grade 4 adverse reaction was presented as grade 4 neutropenia (1 case), grade 3 leukopenia (2 cases) and thrombocytopenia (1 case), grade 2 diarrhea (1 case), and grade 1 diarrhea (3 cases), and grade 1-2 liver injury (3 cases) and nephrotoxicity (2 cases). Conclusion Irinotecan combined with capecitabine or tegafur-gimeracil-oteracil potassium in the treatment of advanced colorectal cancer is effective and safe, which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective:To investigate the effect of liaison nurse-led relocation program on the relocation stress in family members of neurosurgery patients after ICU transfer.Methods:A total of 90 neurosurgery patients and family members were randomly divided into study group (45 cases) and control group (45 cases) . Participants in the control group received routine nursing, while the study group carried out liaison nurse-led relocation program. Family relocation stress scale and family caregiver task inventory-Chinses version was used to assessed relocation stress, care ability of the families before and after intervention.Results:After intervention, the scores of separation anxiety, environmental changes, nursing model changes, the safety of transfer, self-efficacy of care ability and total relocation stress scores were 15.20±2.42, 7.14±1.63, 7.68±2.12, 7.10±1.73, 8.25±1.94 and 49.69±6.96 in the study group, those scores were 16.93±4.19, 9.42±2.31, 10.53±2.64, 8.06±2.12, 10.39±1.62 and 42.56±4.68 in the control group. The scores of separation anxiety, environmental changes, nursing model changes, the safety of transfer, self-efficacy of care ability and total relocation stress scores were lower in the study group compared to the control group ( t value was 2.400-5.678, P<0.05). After intervention, the scores of FCTI such as care role, strain and provide assistance, handle personal emotions, assess family and community resources and adjust life to meet care needs and total scores were 4.16±0.66, 5.28±0.73, 3.51±0.65, 3.99±0.83, 4.52±1.07 and 21.46±1.73 in the study group, those scores were 7.63±1.30, 6.82±1.08, 4.94±0.94, 5.08±1.09, 7.17±1.51 and 31.65±3.09 in the control group. The scores of care role, strain and provide assistance, handle personal emotions, assess family and community resources and total FCTI scores significantly decreased in the study group compared to the control group ( t value was 5.343-19.268, P<0.05). Conclusion:The liaison nurse-led relocation program can effectively prevent the level of relocation stress and improve the care ability of family members of neurosurgery patients after ICU transfer.

OBJECTIVETo observe the clinical effect differences between infraoccipital needle-knife and massage for cervical vertigo.
METHODSA total of 366 patients with cervical vertigo were randomly assigned into a needle-knife group (186 cases) and a massage group (180 cases). With cases dropping excluded, 183 cases in the needle-knife group and 176 cases in the massage group were included. Needle-knife was used at Fengchi (GB 20), infraoccipitalpoint, etc. in the needle-knife group. The treatment was given for one course, once three days, 5 times as one course. The traditional massage was applied in the massage group for one course, including systematic stroking, kneading, and the application of pressure and plucking, etc., once every two days and 7 times as one course. The dizziness handicap inventory (DHI) score was observed before and after treatment, as well as 3, 6, and 12 months after treatment. The effects were also evaluated.
RESULTSThe total effective rate was 92.3% (169/183) in the needle-knife group, which was better than 85.2% (150/176) in the massage group (<0.05). Compared with those before treatment, the DHI scores at all the observation time points after treatment were improved in the two groups (all<0.05), with better improvements after treatment as well as 3 and 6 months after treatment in the needle-knife group (all<0.05). There was no significant difference in the improvement of DHI scores between the two groups 12 months after treatment (>0.05). The recurrence rate was 10.3% (12/117) in the needle-knife group, and it was 10.7% (11/103) in the massage group 12 months after treatment (>0.05).
CONCLUSIONSInfraoccipital needle-knife achieves apparent effect for cervical vertigo, which is superior to massage in short period.
