Objective To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) with urolithiasis.Methods The clinical data of 9 PHPT patients who were evaluated with simple metabolic evaluation in 881 urolithiasis from 2000 to 2005 were summarized and the references were reviewed.Results The level of serum calcium was (2.96±0.48)mmol/L before operation, (1.94±0.42) mmol/L after operation.The level of parathyroid hormone(PTH) was(1133.53±788.21)pmol/L before op-eration,(74.52±49.17)pmol/L after operation.The level of serum calcium and PTH changed significantly after the parathyroidectomy (P<0.01).Follow-up for 14 months to 6 years.the ureteral stones fragments with lithotripsy were clear after 3 months and followed without recurrence,although the renal stones without lithotripsy were followed with no significant change.Conclusions Increase of serum calcium or increase of PTH above double with normal serum calcium may be helpful for diagnosis of PHPT with urolithiasis.Ureteral stone with PHPT should be treated together.Renal stone with PHPT may be followed up after the parathv-roidectomy,and be treated until the complications were occurred.It suggests that the maidend diagnosed pa-tient with urolithiasis should be added with simple metabolic evaluation,including serum calcium, phospho-nium and PTH.

Objective To examine the epidemiology of kidney stone in Pudong New Area ofShanghai and analyze its risk factors. Methods 12 565 residents with the age above 16 years weresurveyed. All subjects needed to answer a questionnaire concerning their sex,age,geographic loca tions,occupation,education status and family history of renal calculi,etc. Ultrasound examinationwas used to diagnose the kidney stone. Results The average prevalence of kidney stone was 3.15%(396/12565),4. 05%(247/6096)in the men and 2.30%(149/6469) in the women,respectively (P<0. 05). The prevalence increased significantly with age of men,whereas the prevalence was highest forwomen aged 50-59. The prevalence between city and rural was not significantly different before age60 (2.58% vs 2. 62%,P>0. 05),whereas the prevalence were significantly different after age 60(6.28% vs 3.36%,P<0.05). The prevalence of subjects with a family history of renal calculi washigher than that without family history (32.02% vs 2.06%,P<0. 01). The prevalence in manage ment staff and vehicle drivers were the highest. Conclusions The prevalence of kidney stone in Pud ong New Area of Shanghai was lower than that in south of China. The relative risk increased in sub jects of aged men,women aged 50 59,with family history of renal calculi,management staff and ve hicle drivers. An understanding of the epidemiology particularly the interactions among different fac tors,may help lead to approach that reduce the risk of stone formation.

BACKGROUND:Stem cel transplantation has achieved good results in the treatment of cerebral ischemia, and how to reduce apoptosis of transplanted cel s has become the focus of the therapy.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the injured effect of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) on bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s and its mechanism.
METHODS:Primary cultured bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s from Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with 200μg/L TNF-αfor 6 hours. Cel vitality was assayed by MTT, and cel apoptosis was observed by Hoechst33342 staining. Apoptotic rate was detected by Annexin-V/PI double staining. Level of oxidative stress was evaluated by determination of malondialdehyde and superoxide dismutase levels. The protein expressions of phosphorylated-Akt, Akt, phosphorylated-FoxO1, FoxO1 were detected by western blot analysis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After treatment with TNF-α, the cel vitality of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s decreased, the apoptotic rate increased, and the cel s were arrested in the S phase. Moreover, the oxidative stress level was elevated, and the protein expression of phosphorylated-Akt and phosphorylated-FoxO1 was significantly reduced compared with the control group (P<0.05). These results suggest that TNF-αat high level contributes to the S-stage arrest, responsible for the apoptosis processes of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s via the Akt-FoxO1 pathway.

Objective To create a whole process management database of urolithiasis and to discuss the application value of the database.Methods According to the 2014 guidelines for urolithiasis of CUA and the needs of follow up and research, a clinical management database of urolithiasis was established using ASP.NET and Microsoft SQL Server 2008, collected the data from hospital information system (HIS), laboratory information management system (LIS), picture archiving and communication systems (PACS), clinical information system(CIS), radiology information system(RIS), electronic medical record(EMR) and follow-up system.Results The database system was user-visually, stable, data communication automatically and query securely.This database was based on the general information of urolithiasis included clinical pathway, diagnosis, treatment, prevention, follow up and charge.It supplied strong foundation and platform for statistics analysis, improving efficiency and quality of urolithiasis scientific research.Conclusions The database of urolithiasis can be established by computerized information management system, which could be beneficial not only to information management of case record but also to clinical, and research works.

Objective:To explore the status quo and influencing factors of the time spent in writing nursing forms in Henan province, in order to reduce the burden of writing nursing documents and improve the writing efficiency.Methods:In this cross-sectional study, nurses from 18 hospitals in Henan province were selected by convenient sampling for a questionnaire survey between June and September 2017. They were investigated with the self-designed general information questionnaire and nursing document writing questionnaire. Univariate analysis and Logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the influencing factors of the time spent in writing nursing documents. Totally 3 586 questionnaires were distributed, and 3 387 valid ones were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 94.5%.Results:In the 3 387 nurses, 37.8% (1 280/3 387) wrote nursing documents for 1 to 2 hours every day, and 25.9% (877/3 387) did so for>2 hours. The proportion of nurses writing an admission nursing document in 6-10 minutes was the highest, accounting for 28.3% (960/3 387) . Univariate analysis showed that age, nursing year, job title, time of writing an admission nursing document, hospital level, nature of hospitals, departments, number of open beds, number of beds managed by nurses, and the number of newly admitted patients in the department affected the time of writing nursing documents (χ 2=27.837, 40.289, 49.562, 442.159, 9.378, 23.742, 165.649, 48.927, 328.491, 55.941; P<0.05) . Logistic regression analysis revealed that departments, number of beds managed by nurses, and the time spent in writing an admission nursing document were the main factors affecting the time spent in writing nursing documents ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:It takes a long time to write the nursing documents in Henan province. The considerable content of nursing documents is the main reason for the longer writing time. In order to effectively reduce the indirect nursing time of nurses and increase the direct nursing time for patients, it is recommended to appropriately simplify the content of admission nursing documents on the basis of meeting national requirements, and decompose some items of admission nursing documents into follow-up nursing documents.

Objective:To investigate the therapeutic effect of reverse proximal segment dorsal flap of radial digital artery of the thumb in repairing thumb tip defects.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 56 patients with thumb tip defects admitted to Renqiu People 's Hospital from February 2010 to October 2020. There were 37 males and 19 females，aged 17-66 years［（37.8±12.2）years］. The injury on the right side was observed in 35 patients and on the left side in 21 patients. All of them were thumb tip defects with exposed distal phalanx. Dimension of skin defects was 2.9 cm×1.8 cm-3.3 cm×2.6 cm.The reverse proximal segment dorsal flap of thumb radial digital artery was used，with the dorsal digital nerve sutured with the proper digital nerve. The donor site was repaired with free skin graft from the ulnar side of the affected forearm. The time of flap harvesting，operation time and healing of the flap were measured. At the last follow-up，the shape，texture，sensory recovery and complications of the flap were observed. One month after operation and at the latest follow-up，the upper limb function evaluation standard set up by hand surgery branch of Chinese Medical Association and Vancouver Scar Scale（VSS）score were used to evaluate the recovery of sensory function of the flap and scar formation of the donor sites，respectively. Results:All patients were followed up for 6-26 months［（13.2±6.4）months］. The time of flap harvesting ranged from 20 to 35 minutes［（26.0±5.3）minutes］. The operation time was 1-2 hours［（1.3±0.3）hours］. Blisters appeared at the distal end of the flap in 2 patients after operation，but they were not treated. After 7 days，the blisters subsided and the flaps survived. The other flaps survived successfully. The donor sites healed by first intention. At the last follow-up，the flaps showed relatively cosmetic appearance，similarities in texture，elasticity and color to the surrounding area and good sensory recovery，without scar contracture and dystrophy of interphalangeal joint. According to the upper limb function evaluation standard set up by hand surgery branch of Chinese Medical Association，56 patients exceeded S3 grade compared to none at postoperative 1 month（ P<0.01），and the VSS score was 3-7 points［（5.0±1.4）points］compared to 6-12 points［（8.8±1.5）points］at postoperative 1 month（ P<0.01）. The donor site left a linear scar，which had no significant effect on its shape and function. Conclusion:The reverse proximal segment dorsal flap of the radial digital artery of the thumb can be used to repair thumb tip defects，for it has advantages of easy operation，a high survival rate as well as good appearance and sensory function recovery，with less damage to the donor area.

Objective:To report our clinical efficacy of pedicled transplantation of proximal thumb dorsal transverse flap to repair tissue defects at thumb pulp and fingertip.Methods:From February 2010 to November 2020, 97 patients with tissue defects at thumb pulp and fingertip were treated by pedicled transplantation of proximal thumb dorsal transverse flap at Department of Orthopedics, People's Hospital of Renqiu. They were 55 men and 42 women, aged from 17 to 66 years (average, 41.3 years). Altogether 55 right and 42 left sides were affected. The size of soft tissue defects ranged from 2.8 cm×1.8 cm to 3.9 cm×2.8 cm. Postoperatively, flap survival, shape, color and sensory recovery at the recipient area were observed; wound healing, function and complications at the donor site were also observed.Results:All the 97 flaps survived and all the wounds healed at the first stage. Blisters appeared at the distal end of the flap in only 2 cases but subsided 7 days after operation with no special treatment and the flaps survived smoothly. All the skin grafts at the donor site survived uneventfully. The 97 patients were followed up for 6 to 26 months (average, 10.7 months). Their flaps were not swollen, finger abdomen was full, finger appearance satisfactory, and finger feeling recovered well. The two-point discrimination at the last follow-up ranged from 4 to 11 mm (average, 7.6 mm). By the trial criteria for assessment of upper limb function suggested by Hand Surgery Society of Chinese Medical Association, sensory function of the affected finger was assessed as S 4 in 21 cases and as S 3+ in 76 cases at the last follow-up. No scar contracture was observed at the donor site and no movement restriction at the interphalangeal joint. Conclusion:Proximal thumb dorsal transverse flap is a reliable choice for reconstruction of complex tissue defects at thumb pulp and fingertip because of the advantages of easy harvest, constant vascular anatomy, full appearance and good sensory function at the recipient site, and limited damage to the donor site.

Objective:To summarize the effect of reverse homodigital dorsal thumb flap in repairing thumb pulp defect.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of patients with thumb pulp defects admitted to the People's Hospital of Renqiu from March 2010 to June 2020. The dorsal homodigital island flap of the proximal phalanx was designed and harvested. During the procedure, the proximal digital artery of the perforator vessels of the flap was cut off and ligated. The digital artery pedicled flap was retrograde transferred to cover the thumb pulp defect. 9-0 line was used to anastomose the dorsal digital nerve with the proper digital nerve. The donor site was repaired with a free skin graft.Results:A total of 68 cases of thumb pulp defects were enrolled, all of whom were accompanied by exposure of the tendon of the distal phalanx. There were 39 males and 29 females, aged from 18 to 63 years (average of 35.8 years). The size of the proximal dorsal island flap was 2.0 cm × 3.0 cm to 3.1 cm × 4.2 cm. All flaps and skin grafts survived, and wounds healed primarily. All patients were followed up for 6 to 28 months (mean, 10.6 months). The color, texture, and contour of the flaps were good. All repaired thumbs got the normal function of extension and flexion. At the last follow-up, the two-point discrimination of flaps was 4-11 mm.Conclusions:It has the advantages of small trauma, simple operation, and good curative effect, using the homodigital dorsal thumb flap to repair the thumb pulp defect.
