Objective To analyze the clinical efficacy of balloon occlusion of distal abdominal aorta for patients with pernicious placenta previa and placenta accreta.Methods Data of 72 patients with pernicious placenta previa and placenta accreta were retrospectively analyzed.There were 53 cases (occlusion group) reserved balloon occlusion in abdominal aorta before cesarean section,which can temporarily blocked abdominal aortic blood flow during operation.The other 19 cases (non-occlusion group) underwent cesarean section without balloon occlusion of abdominal aorta.The intraoperative,post operative situations and the birth state of newborn of the two groups were compared.Results The bleeding,blood transfusion and hysterectomy rate during the operation in occlusion group were less than those in non-occlusion group (all P＜ 0.05).Differences of the rate of postoperative transferring to intensive care unit (ICU) and the time in ICU were statistically significant between two groups (both P ＜0.05).No statistical difference of operation time,postoperative total hospital stay time and the rate of postoperative infection was found between two groups (both P＞0.05).There was no statistical difference of newborns weight and Apgar scores (5 min and 10 min after birth) between two groups (all P＞0.05).Conclusion The balloon occlusion of distal abdominal aorta in cesarean section for patients with pernicious placenta previa and placenta accreta is safe and feasible,which can effectively reduce the intraoperative bleeding,the blood transfusion and the risk of hysterectomy.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of L-838,417 on the results of behavioral test in rats with experimentally induced trigeminal neuralgia.

METHODSMale SD rats were randomized into model group (n=34), sham-operated group (n=30) and control group (n=6). Thirty rats with trigeminal neuralgia induced by chronic constriction injury of the infraorbital nerve below the zygomatic bone were randomly divided into 5 equal groups for treatment with 1.0 mg/kg L-838,417 (L1 group), 10.0 mg/kg L-838,417 (L10 group), 5 mg/kg morphine (M group), 3 mg/kg diazepam (D group), or normal saline (NS group). The pain threshold of the tentacles pad to von-Frey filament stimulation was measured in the rats before and at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 h after the treatments. The sedative effect of L-838,417 was evaluated by recording the position scores and righting reflex scores, and the drug tolerance was also evaluated.

RESULTSNine days after the operation, the pain threshold of the rats in the model group was significantly decreased compared with that before operation and that of the sham group (P<0.01). The threshold of L1 and L10 groups were both significantly increased 1 h after L-838,417 administration (P<0.01). The rats in the NS, L1, and L10 groups did not show unusual posture or righting reflex. In L1 and L10 groups, L838,417 did not show attenuated efficacy after prolonged use (10 days).

CONCLUSIONL-838,417 can effectively improve hyperalgesia in rats with trigeminal neuralgia without causing sedation, motor impairment, or drug tolerance.

A series of novel N-acyl-thiochromenothiazol-2-amine derivatives were designed and synthesized, furthermore, their inhibition effect on acetylcholinesterase was investigated. N-Acyl-thiochromenothiazol-2-amines were prepared from thiophenol by Hantzsch reaction, acylation reaction and substitution reaction. Moreover, their bioactivities as AChE inhibitors in vitro were measured with Ellman spectrophotometry. The results showed that most of them had a certain inhibition activity on AChE, and the compound 10a was the best in them. The IC50 of 10a to AChE is 7.92 μmol x L(-1), and the value is better than that of rivastigmine. N-Acyl-thiochromenothiazol-2-amine derivatives showed a certain bioactivity in vitro, which were worth further investigation.

OBJECTIVEThis study aimed to observe the postoperative pain rate and degree of pain in preschool children with cleft lip and palate, and investigate the effect of nursing intervention on pain relief.

METHODSA total of 120 hospitalized cases of three- to seven-year-old preschool children with cleft lip and palate were selected from May to October 2011. The subjects were randomly divided into the control group and experimental groups 1, 2, and 3. The control group used conventional nursing methods, experimental group 1 used analgesic drug treatment, experimental group 2 used psychological nursing interventions, and experimental group 3 used both psychological nursing intervention and analgesic drug treatment. After 6, 12, 24, and 48 h, pain self-assessment, pain parent-assessment, and pain nurse-assessment were calculated for the four groups using the pain assessment forms, and their ratings were compared.

RESULTSThe postoperative pain rates of the four groups ranged from 50.0% to 73.3%. The difference among the four groups was statistically significant (P < 0.001). The differences among the control group and experimental groups 1 and 2 were not statistically significant (P = 0.871), whereas the differences among experimental group 3 and the other groups were statistically significant (P < 0.001).

CONCLUSIONPostoperative pain in preschool children with cleft lip and palate is common. Psychological nursing intervention with analgesic treatment is effective in relieving postoperative pain.

Objective To compare the dijference of prostate cancer detection rate (PCDR) between 12 + 1-core biopsy and 6-core biopsy of the prostate system guided by transrectal ultrasonography (TRUS).Methods The clinical data of 2 707 patients with prostate biopsy from July 1999 to June 2012 were retrospectively analyzed.These patients were 54 to 92 years old,mean age was 69 years old.The range of PSA was 0.02-158.56 ng/ml,with an average of 16.97 ng/mt.People in the range of PSA 0-4.00,4.01-10.00,10.01-20.00,20.01-30.00,and ＞ 30.00 were 161,826,827,312,581,respectively.The volume of the prostate ranged from 14.1 to 82.6 cm3,mean 47.9 cm3.The 1 603 cases before the July 2009 were performed 6-core biopsy guided by the finger,followed by 1104 TRUS-guided 12 + 1-core biopsy.In addition,after March 2012,60 patients accepeted the MRI examination before prostate biopsy.The strategy of prostate biopsy was medial 6-core,lateral 6-core,the 13th core was positioned at abnormal signal area of TRUS and MRI.Explore the difference of PCDR medial 6-core,lateral 6-core,systematic 12-and 12 + 1-core,and the difference of 13th core and the other 12 cores,with the cut off value of PSA quartile of 30 ng/ml and PV quartile of 46 cm3.Results Comparison of clinical characteristics of prostate biopsy between positive group and negative group was performed,and the result suggested that The positive outcome of prostate cancer biopsy was related with element such as high PSA,old age [(71.7 ±7.1)vs.(68.3 ± 8.1),P =0.008],large fPSA [(8.5 ± 36.4) vs.(2.3 ± 3.4),P ＜ 0.001],small prostate volume [(41.3 ±22.9) vs.(52.3 ±29.3),P ＜0.001],small value of f/t[(0.12 ± 0.07) vs.(0.17 ±0.10,P ＜0.001)],high density of PSA [(2.04 ± 9.36) vs.(0.32 ± 0.42),P ＜ 0.001],digital rectal examination [72.0％ (522/725) vs.23.1％ (457/1 982),P ＜ 0.001],irregular echo level [41.1％ (695/1 693) vs.28.0％ (284/1 014),P ＜ 0.001],hypoechoic [64.3％ (695/1 081) vs.17.5％ (284/1 626),P ＜ 0.001],microcalcifcation[56.8％ (586/1 032) vs.23.5％ (393/ 675),P ＜ 0.001].PCDR of 12 + 1-core biopsy was significantly higher than lateral 6-core biopsy[41.5％ (458/1 104)vs.37.0％ (408/1 104),P =0.033].However,PCDR of 12-core biopsy had no statistical differences with 6-core biopsy[40.7％ (449/1 104) vs.37.0％ (408/1 104),P =0.081].PCDR of TRUS-guided biopsy was higher than that of finger-guided biopsy in patients with PSA≤30 ng/ml and PV ＞46 cm3 [30.0％ (254/846)vs.22.2％ (284/1 280),P ＜0.001;31.7％ (124/391)vs.18.1％ (131/723),P ＜0.001].PCDR of the 13th core positioned at abnormal signal area of TRUS and MRI was higher than the average PCDR of other 12 cores [70.9％ (107/151) vs.56.6％ (3 109/5 496),P ＜ 0.001].Conclusion PCDR of TRUS-guided biopsy was higher than that of finger-guided biopsy in patients with PSA≤30 ng/ml and PV ＞46 cm3.PCDR of 12 + 1-core biopsy was significantly higher than that of lateral 6-core biopsy.However,PCDR of 12-core biopsy had no statistical differences with that of 6-core biopsy.PCDR of the 13th core positioned at abnormal signal area of TRUS was higher than the average PCDR of other 12 cores.

Objective To review and analyze the clinical effect of combined posterior mini-invasive fixation with anterior debridement via small incision for the treatment of single segment lumbar vertebral tuberculosis. Methods Totally 31 cases with single segment lumbar tuberculosis (both borderline tuberculosis) without attachment involvement underwent one-stage anterior debridement, interbody fusion and posterior mini-invasive fixation from July 2010 to July 2015. Among these patients, 19 were male and 12 were female. The average age was (36.1±17.8) years old (ranged 21-61 years old). The average course of disease was 11(9, 12) months (ranged from 2 to 16 months). All were single segment involvement, and the involved segment was L2-3 in 7 cases, L3-4 in 10 cases, L4-5 in 6 cases, and L5-S1 in 8 cases. The clinical manifestations included lumbar back pain in 31 cases with an average pain visual analog score (VAS) of 7(6, 8) points. ASIA grade of spinal cord injury was E in 25 cases and D in 6 cases. Paravertebral abscess occurred in 22 cases and iliac fossa gravity abscess appeared in 9 cases. Kyphosis was observed in 12 cases and the average Cobb angle was 21° ± 6° . Quadruple anti-tuberculosis chemotherapy was used for at least 2 weeks preoperatively. Posterior mini-invasive fixation was fulfilled on prone position, including mini-invasive percutaneous screws in 18 cases and pedicle screw fixation via Wiltse approach in 13 cases. Posterior distraction and deformity correction were performed simultaneously for patients with kyphosis. Then the patients were changed to lateral position for anterior debridement, bone grafting and/or titanium mesh fusion. Results The average operation time was (204±54) min (ranged 160-240 min) in 31 patients, and the mean blood loss was (168±73) mL (ranged 100-300 mL). Delayed healing of anterior incision occurred in 1 case and the incision healed after two-week dressing of wound. The incision healed well in the rest 30 cases. No complications such as nerve function, blood vessel injury were found in patients. The VAS scores of the 3 days after operation were 1.3 ± 0.3 and 2.1 ± 1.4 in percutaneous group and Wiltse approach group, respectively, and the difference between them was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The VAS score of low back pain was 2(1, 3) points in all the 31 patients three months after operation, which was significantly lower than that before surgery (P<0.05). The six patients with neurological symptoms recovered to E grade after operation. The average Cobb angle correction was 15°±5° in 12 patients with kyphosis (P<0.05), which was significantly decreased compared with that before surgery (P<0.05). All patients were followed up for an average of (36.8 ± 9.3) months (ranged from 12 to 72 months). The clinical healing of tuberculosis was achieved at the final follow-up in all the 31 patients. No complications were observed, such as lumbar kyphosis, internal fixation loosening and breakage, dislocation and titanium mesh subsidence. Conclusion Mini-invasive posterior internal fixation and anterior debridement via small incision is effective for the treatment of single segment lumbar vertebral tuberculosis in lesion debridement and spine stability reconstruction by short segment fixation. This technique can reduce fused segments, surgical trauma of anterior approach and related complications.
