Objective:To investigate the reasonable approach and surgical indication for acute necrotizing pancreatitis(ANP)by analyzing the factors that affecting the mortality of ANP.Methods:One hundred and twelve patients with ANP were retrospectively divided into two groups-the dead and the survivors.Some parameters were analyzed statistically to reveal what's the reason for death.Results:The average age,sex ratio and onset of illness were similar between two groups.And the ratio of early shock,early adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS),high temperature,leukocytosis and high blood glucose between two groups were also similar between two groups(P>0.05,respectively).The important factors that affecting the mortality were:①severity of pancreatic necrosis,②improper surgical approach,③incorrect surgical indication.Conclusion:The patiets with mild or moderate ANP should mainly receive conservative treatment for 48~72 hours.The early shock and ARDS should be redressed before surgical intervention.If the operation is unavoidable,the swelling pancreas should be dissected fully,which will provide sufficient drainage after operation,and duodenostomy should be performed during operation.

Objective:To evaluate the feasibility of transforaminal endoscopic nerve root decompression for degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis (DLSS).Methods: From July 2011 to April 2016,96 cases of single segment DLSS were involved.All the patients had unilateral lower extremity neurological symptoms,signs,neurogenic intermittent claudication of less than 500 m.Imaging examinations (CT or MRI) or diagnostic nerve root block confirmed single segment degeneration.The mean age was (71.6±5.4) years,male: 55 cases,female: 41 cases.Their intraoperative blood loss,operation time,complications,ambulation time and discharge time were recorded.Leg pain VAS,ODI were used to evaluate the pain and lumbar function of the patients.The clinical efficacy was evaluated by Nakai evaluation.Results: All the patients were performed endoscopic decompression of the lateral recess and nerve root by removing the ventral part of the superior facet joint,the ligamentum flavum and the intervertebral disc.The decompression range was from the inferior edge of the upper pedicle to the superior edge of the lower pedicle.The nerve root was detected to have no compression and the pulse of nerve root returned to normal.The patient got ambulant on the operation day and discharged if he had no discomfort symptom.In the study,68 cases got follow up.The mean follow-up time was 12.1 months (6-63 months).The VAS at dif-ferent follow-up time points was improved relative to the baseline,and the difference was statistically significant (F=491.60,P<0.001).The ODI at different follow-up time points was improved relative to the baseline,and the difference was statistically significant (F=189.91,P<0.001).The excellent and good rates of Nakai evaluation were 79.4% (excellent in 42 cases,good in 12 cases,fair in 10 cases and poor in 4 cases).The mean intraoperative blood loss was (49.29±11.86) mL.The mean operation time was (92.46±21.34) min.The mean ambulation time was 1.8 h.The mean discharge time was 2.3 days.Postoperative epidural hematoma was found in 1 case.Foot drop was found in 1 case.Second stage open surgery was performed in 6 cases.Conclusion: We can apply transforaminal endoscopic decompression for the patients of lumbar spinal stenosis who have unilateral nerve root irritation.Patients with transforaminal endoscopic decompression can get less surgical trauma,quick recovery and obtain good short-term outcome.

Objective To measure the costs of primary health services in the community for developing government compensation standard and prediction of budget in 201 5.Methods Literature review and panel discussions were used to build the index database.A two-round Delphi expert consultation determined the work to do and steps for community healthcare standards.60 community health centers were sampled by stratified random sampling for survey,and the work hours,workload and service volume of respective services in 2013 were measured according to the service standards of primary care.Results The community primary care consists of the categories of outpatient services,nursing care, laboratory tests and drug management,totaling 20 services and 88 working procedures.The total work hours of primary healthcare service at 60 community health centers were 2 557 187.9 hours,which is adjusted to 2 959 21 5.1 hours based on workload coefficients.Based on the income standards of employees at the community health centers investigated,and the human cost price which was recommended by the experts,the total costs of primary healthcare of the 60 centers were 245 million,248 million and 318 million respectively,and the average cost was 71.0 yuan,71.8 yuan and 92.1 yuan per visit respectively.By such standards,the government should subsidize 38.9 ~ 60.0 yuan per visit to the centers.The total expenditure of primary healthcare of all communities in Shenzhen in 201 5 was predicted to be 314 to 407 million,for which the government is expected to subsidize 1.68~2.58 billion.Conclusion The subsidies for community primary healthcare fall short as the cost per visit runs up in 2013 to 71.0 yuan per visit or more,far above the current subsidy of 32.1 yuan per person.The subsidy per visit should be made 50.0 yuan in 201 5.

Neuroinflammation is a common pathological feature of neurodegenerative diseases (NDs). Microglia (MG), a resident macrophage in the brain with a unique developmental origin, is the core driver of neuroinflammation. It can participate in the occurrence and development of NDs through different polarization states and play a key role in regulating neurogenesis and synapse shaping and maintaining homeostasis. MG can be divided into M1 pro-inflammatory phenotype and M2 anti-inflammatory phenotype according to its function. The inflammatory mediators released by the M1 phenotype can lead to nerve degeneration and myelin sheath damage, while the activation of the M2 phenotype is required to inhibit the inflammatory response and promote tissue repair. With the advantages of multi-pathway, multi-target, and bidirectional regulation, traditional Chinese medicine can regulate the polarization balance of MG and has dual effects on NDs such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and multiple sclerosis. The active components of traditional Chinese medicine and its compound can inhibit the activation of MG by regulating phosphatidylinositol-3-kinases/protein kinase B(PI3K/Akt), NOD-like receptor thermal protein domain associated protein 3(NLRP3), signal transducer and activator of transcription factor1(STAT1), nuclear transcription factor kappa B(NF-κB), and other pathways, promote the polarization of M1 phenotype to M2 phenotype, reduce the expression of interleukin(IL)-6, tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), and other pro-inflammatory factors, and increase the secretion of IL-10, arginase-1(Arg-1), and other anti-inflammatory factors. It can also reduce β-amyloid deposition and tau protein expression in Alzheimer's disease, alleviate dopaminergic neuronal damage in Parkinson's disease, and relieve demyelination, inflammatory cell infiltration, and related clinical symptoms of multiple sclerosis. The bidirectional regulation of the M1/M2 polarization balance of MG by traditional Chinese medicine is a potential strategy for the treatment of NDs. This paper focused on the targets of the regulation of MG polarization balance by traditional Chinese medicine monomer and its compound in the treatment of NDs, so as to further study and summarize the existing research results and provide ideas and basis for the future treatment of NDs.
