BACKGROUND:There was a variety of surgery treatment method in senile patients with unstable intertrochanteric fractures, such as hip replacement and internal fixation, but there was a great deal of controversy about advantages and disadvantages of different methods.
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate clinical effect and safety of total hip replacement, hemiarthroplasty and proximal femoral nail in senile patients with unstable intertrochanteric fractures.
METHODS:103 senile patients with unstable intertrochanteric fractures were selected, including 43 males and 60 females at the age of 62 to 80 years old. There were 28 cases of total hip replacement, 34 cases of hemiarthroplasty and 41 cases of proximal femoral nail. Perioperative complications and recovery of hip function after repair were compared among three groups.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The incidence of postoperative complications of internal medicine was higher in the proximal femoral nail group than in the total hip replacement and hemiarthroplasty groups (P < 0.05). No significant difference in the incidence of complications was found between the hemiarthroplasty and total hip replacement groups. (2) The incidence of prosthesis complications was lower in the total hip replacement group than in the hemiarthroplasty and proximal femoral nail groups (P < 0.05). No significant difference in the incidence of prosthesis complications was detectable between the total hip replacement and hemiarthroplasty groups. (3) The recovery of hip function was better in the total hip replacement and hemiarthroplasty groups than in the proximal femoral nail group during 12-month folow-up (P < 0.05), and no significant difference in the recovery of hip function was found between the total hip replacement and hemiarthroplasty groups. These results showed that total hip replacement and hemiarthroplasty had good curative effect on unstable intertrochanteric fractures in senile patients, and could effectively restore the hip function and reduce complications.

Objective To evaluate the postoperative analgesic effects of parecoxib for laparoscopic urological surgery.Methods Forty patients with ASA scale ofⅠto Ⅲ underwent laparoscopic urological surgery were randomly divided into two groups: the flurbiprofen group(group Ⅰ,n=20) with IV flurbiprofen 100 mg at 2 hours after operation,and 100 mg twice a day during 3 days after operation;and the parecoxib group(group Ⅱ,n=20)with IV parecoxib 40 mg at 2 hours after operation,and 40 mg twice a day during 3 days after operation.The VAS score at 2,4,16,24 and 48 hours after operation and the adverse effects were recorded.Results The average VAS score of the two groups was 4 to 5 at 2 hours after operation,and was 0~3 at other time points.There was no significant difference among two groups in the VAS score.Conclusion Parecoxib can provid effective postoperative analgesia for patients underwent laparoscopic urological surgery as flurbiprofen.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effects of amended concave position in gynecological laparoscopy surgery.Methods: Eighty ASAⅠ~Ⅱ patients with gynecological laparoscopy surgery were randomly divided into two groups, the patients in group A were adopted Trendelenburg position; the patients in group B were adopted amended concave position. The Ppeak and PETCO2 in the two groups were recorded during surgery, the time of extubation and the adverse effects as nausea, vomiting, shivering was recorded after surgery.Results: The Ppeak and PETCO2 of group A were higher than that of group B(t=2.526,t=2.838, t=2.881;P<0.05). The time of extubation of group A were higher than that of group B after surgery(t=2.515,t=2.436;P<0.05).Conclusion: Adopting amended concave position can reduce Ppeak and PETCO2 in gynecological laparoscopic surgery, and it is helpful for postoperative recovery of the patients with gynecological laparoscopy surgery.

OBJECTIVETo study the role of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in the pathogenesis of sarcoidosis.

METHODSArchival material of 22 patients with a histologic diagnosis of sarcoidosis were retrieved. Real-time fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to detect DNA fragments of the complex-specific insertion sequence IS6110 of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded biopsy samples.

RESULTSAmong the 22 samples studied, Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA was detected in 11 cases. The sequence of PCR amplified IS6110 DNA fragments completely matched with the related sequence in Mycobacterium tuberculosis gene.

CONCLUSIONSMycobacterium tuberculosis DNA is identified in a certain proportion of patients with a clinicopathologic diagnosis of sarcoidosis. Mycobacterium tuberculosis may be an important etiologic agent, at least in some of these patients.

Objective To discuss the efficacy of Compound Anisodine Injection combined with Iodized Lecithin Tablets in treatment of central serous chorioretinopathy.Methods Totally 60 patients with CSC were selected,and divided into two groups randomly.The patients in control group (29 cases) were given Iodized Lecithin Tablets.The patients in observation group (31 cases) were given Iodized Lecithin Tablets and Compound Anisodine Injection.The efficacy of Compound Anisodine Injection combined with Iodized Lecithin Tablets in treatment of central serous chorioretinopathy was evaluated by efficacy,visual acuity,light sensitivity,and adverse reaction during treatment.Results After treatment,the effective rates of observation and control groups were 93.5％ and 79.3％,and the observation group was significantly higher than control group (P ＜ 0.05).There were no statistical significance on visual acuity between two groups.After treatment,rhe visual acuity of two groups was increased and the visual acuity in the observation group was better (P ＜ 0.05).Before treatment,there were no statistical significance on light sensitivity between two groups.After 2 and 4 weeks treatment,the light sensitivity of two groups were increased and the light sensitivity in the observation group was higher (P ＜ 0.05).During treatment,there was no statistical significance on adverse reaction between two groups.Conclusion Compound Anisodine Injection combined with Iodized Lecithin Tablets has a curative effect on central serous chorioretinopathy.It could increase the visual acuity and improve the light sensitivity of eyes with good security.It is worthy of clinical use.

Objectives To investigate the impact of ischemic preconditioning (IPC) on dynamics of homing of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) after renal ischemia reperfusion injury (IR).Methods Sixty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups after right-side kidney nephrectomy:for sham-operated rats,lumbotomy without vascular clamping was performed; IR rats were clamped renal blood vessels for 40 minutes while IPC rats were pre-treated with 15 min ischemia and 10 min reperfusion.At 3,12,24 h,and 3 days after reperfusion,the pool of circulating,kidneys,lungs and spleens were harvested.The extent of renal injury was assessed by biochemical and histological examination.The dynamics of homing of EPCs was observed by flow cytometry.Results The rats in IPC group exhibited significant improvements in renal function and morphology.Compared with IR group and sham group,the number of EPCs in blood was increased in the IPC group at 12 h and 24 h after reperfusion (P ＜ 0.05).The number of EPCs in kidney was increased at all times pointin the IPC group and IR group as compared to the sham group (P ＜ 0.05.In addition,EPCs number was increased in IPC group compared with the IR group at 12 h and 24 h [(11.36±0.66)％ vs (6.37±0.69)％,(6.31±0.70)％ vs (4.40±0.60)％,all P＜ 0.05].Compared with IR group and sham group,the number of EPCs in the lung was increased in the IPC groups at 12 h after reperfusion [(2.95±0.66)％ vs (1.78±0.59)％,(1.66±0.61)％,all P ＜ 0.05].The number of EPCs in spleen was increased in the IPC group at 72 h as compared with the IR group and sham group [(0.55±0.06)％ vs (0.34±0.07)％,(0.31±0.06)％,all P ＜ 0.05].Conclusions Endogenous EPCs may home to injured kidney after IPC.EPCs can also gather in the lungs and spleen.

Plants in Acaceae family are often considered as ornamental and medicines. However many of them have irritation properties. As medicinal plants some of them are recorded in Chinese Pharmacopoeia and they are figured as poisonous. Through investigating the domestic and overseas studied paper, the needle-like calcium oxalate crystal exits in the plants of Acaceae family could be thought as irritation components of them. This conclusion is same with the studied conclusion of our study group in the medicines plant of Pinellia ternate belonging to the Acaceae family and our studies showed that the needle-like calcium oxalate crystal was the main irritation component of raw P. ternate. The irritated mechanism of raphides is relevant to its special shape, the protein enzyme adhering to it and idioblasts in plants.
