BACKGROUND:Autologous hematopoietic stem celltransplantation is an effective treatment for multiple myeloma. After chemotherapy, autologous hematopoietic stem celltransplantation becomes a standard therapeutic regimen for multipla myeloma, and numerous units and centers have reported that. How to reduce toxic and adverse reactions of the drugs, transplantation-related complications and improvement of long-term survival have been present foci.
OBJECTIVE:To summarize the new progress of autologous hematopoietic stem celltransplantation in the treatment of multiple myeloma.
METHODS:We retrieved PubMed and China National Knowledge Infrastructure database, Vip database, Wanfang database, free medicaljournals.com source for articles published from January 2006 to November 2012 concerning autologous hematopoietic stem celltransplantation in the treatment of multiple myeloma. The key words were“autologous hematopoietic stem celltransplantation, multiple myeloma”. A total of 46 articles were included.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Large-dose chemotherapy combined with autologous hematopoietic stem celltransplantation for multiple myeloma obtained better outcomes compared with the traditional chemotherapy. However, many patients could not relieve after single autologous hematopoietic stem celltransplantation, and the disease recurred final y. Al ogeneic hematopoietic stem celltransplantation was limited by donor source, and treatment-associated fatality rate was high, so its use was confined. Therefore, present new development direction included twice autologous hematopoietic stem celltransplantation, autologous transplantation combined with al ogeneic transplantation with reduced-intensity conditioning regimens as wel as drug on the basis of single autologous hematopoietic stem celltransplantation. Novel drug proteasomes inhibitor and immunomodulator in inducer remission, pretreatment and sustaining stages obviously improved total reaction rate of multiple myeloma therapy and long-term survival.

Objectives To analyse the clinical feature,drug and surgical treatment and prognosis of rheumatic diseases associat- ed corneal melting.Design Retrospective case series.Participants 14 patients (22 eyes) with rheumatic diseases associated corneal melting.Methods The clinical data of patients were analysed,including history,visual acuity,slit-lamp microscopy examination,drug and surgical treatment and follow-up results.Main Outcome Measures The clinical feature,therapeutic effects and recurrence. Results The follow-up was 6～24 months.Rheumatic diseases associated corneal melting always firstly occurred from the upper corneal limbus.The marginal lesions of cornea included melting of the stroma,resulting in corneal thinning or even perforation,with neovascu- larization.The corneal lesions in 4 eyes were within 1 quadrant,10 eyes within 2 quadrants,6 eyes within 3 quadrants,and 2 eyes in 4 quadrants.Eight eyes of 5 cases,whose corneal lesions were thinner than 2/3 of normal corneal thickness,received 1% cyclosporine A and 0.5% heparin eyedrops.Among those,the lesions in 3 eyes of 2 cases progressed worse.Fourteen eyes of 9 cases,whose corneal lesions were thicker than 2/3 of normal corneal thickness,received marginal lamellar keratoplasty.Among those,recurrent signs were noted in 10 eyes of 6 cases.Conclusions Rheumatic diseases associated corneal melting has typical clinical features.Local cy- closporine A and heparin treatment are effective for patients in early stage.A high recurrent rate is found for patients in late stage re- ceived marginal lamellar keratoplasty.

BACKGROUND:More and more elderly patients have hip fractures because of diverse reasons, and most of the fractures are unstable fractures combined with the displacement of the lesser trochanter. At present, there are stil many reports about using dynamic hip screw to repair unstable intertrochanteric fractures, and the effect is obvious. However, there are stil great controversies regarding whether lesser trochanter fixation is performed during the repair process. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effect of using dynamic hip screw combined with the lesser trochanter fixation to repair intertrochanteric fractures and the occurrence of hip coxa vara after repair through a meta-analysis. METHODS:The PubMed, EMCC, CBM, CNKI, VIP and Wanfang databases were retrieved by computer for randomized controled trials on whether lesser trochanter reduction fixation was performed during the process of dynamic hip screw internal fixation for repair of intertrochanteric fractures. The quality of the included studies was evaluated according to the pre-designated inclusion and exclusion criteria. The available data were extracted and analyzed using the RevMan5.2 software. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 10 randomized controled trials involving 604 patients were included. Among them, 298 cases were assigned to the dynamic hip screw combined with lesser trochanter fixation group, and 306 cases to the lesser trochanter unfixed group. The meta-analysis results indicated that hip coxa vara, other postoperative complications, the excelent and good rate of efficacy in the dynamic hip screw combined with lesser trochanter fixation group were al superior to those in the lesser trochanter unfixed group (alP < 0.000 1), and for hip coxa vara, the parameters were odds ratio=0.17, 95% confidence interval (0.07, 0.41),Z=3.99,P< 0.000 1. The operation time and the amount of blood loss in the lesser trochanter unfixed group were superior to those in the dynamic hip screw combined with lesser trochanter fixation group (alP < 0.000 1). These results suggest that the lesser trochanter unfixed therapy has the advantages of relatively simple operation, shorter operative time and less blood loss during the process of dynamic hip screw internal fixation for repair of unstable intertrochanteric fractures. However, the excelent and good rates of efficacy, hip coxa vara and other postoperative complications were superior in patients with intertrochanteric fracture above the Tronzo-Evans III type who received dynamic hip screw combined with lesser trochanter fixation to those who received lesser trochanter unfixed therapy. The results indicate that dynamic hip screw combined with lesser trochanter fixation for repair of intertrochanteric fracture is beneficial to prevent hip coxa vara and other complications.

Objective To explore the diagnosis and surgical treatment of duodenal trauma.Methods A retrospective study was accomplished on the clinical data of 52 patients with duodenal trauma.Results Of 52 patients with duodenal trauma,11 cases were simply anterior wall trauma,41 cases were anterior and posterior wall trauma and 6 cases were complicated with other organs traumatic.All patients were treated by surgery,and 45 cases were cured and 7 cases died.Conclusions Duodenal trauma often betides when patients have suffered road accident or closed impact injury in abodomen.Anterior wall trauma is often complicated with contrecoup of corresponding posterior wall.The diagnosis of posterior wall trauma is easily missed and the leakage of duodenum often happens in the operation.It is critical to check the doubtful cases with careful operations research and select reasonable and appropriate operation types for the diagnosis and surgical treatment of duodenal trauma.

Objective To evaluate the role of contrast enhanced ultrasound in treatment of ultrasound guided high intensity fo‐cused ultrasound ablation for uterine fibroids .Methods Forty eight women with uterine fibroids were allocated into contrast en‐hanced group(25cases ,42fibroids) and non contrast enhanced group(23 cases ,35 fibroids) .The average volume of fibroids and the non perfused volume and the fractional ablation and adverse effects between the tow groups were compared .Results Non perfused volume was observed in all fibroids of the two groups after high intensity focused ultrasound ablation through sulphur hexafluoride micro bubbles .The average non perfused volume was 19 .5(18 .2)cm3 and 22 .5(14 .5)cm3 ,fractional ablation was (78 ± 18)% and (87 ± 13)% of the uterus immediately after HIFU respectively .The average non perfused volume was 18 .6(18 .2)cm3 and 19 .5 (18 .7)cm3 ,fractional ablation was (85 .7 ± 15 .2)% and (87 .6 ± 8 .0)% of the uterus two days after HIFU .There was no signifi‐cant difference was observed in average non perfused volume and the fractional ablation between the two groups(P>0 .05) .During HIFU procedure ,more patients in non contrast enhanced group complained sacral pain than those in contrast enhanced group(P<0 .05) .Conclusion Contrast enhanced ultrasound is an accurate method in assessing the treatment effect of HIFU and could be safely used during HIFU treatment for uterine fibroids ,shorten therapy time ,and decrease side reaction .

Objective To assess the effect of aortic valve replacement (AVR) on left ventricular (LV) twist function in severe aortic stenosis (AS) patients with preserved LV ejection fraction (LVEF) by speckle tracking imaging (STI).Methods Twenty-eight severe aortic stenosis (AS) patients (17 male,age 64.1 ± 10.4 years) with normal LVEF (≥50％) were examined by STI before and six months after AVR.The standard mitral valve and apical short-axis views were obtained to analyze LV basal and apical peak systolic rotation.LV peak systolic twist was calculated as the different between apical rotation and basal rotation.LV fractional shortening (LVFS) was calculated as the percentage fall of LV systolic dimension with respect to diastolic dimension.The data were compared with 28 age and sex-matched normal controls.Results In patients,LVEF remained unchanged after AVR.LV twist increased before (19.7° ± 5.7° vs 12.9° ± 3.2°,P ＜0.001) because of increased apical rotation (13.0° ± 5.8° vs 7.6° ± 2.6°,P ＜0.001),and normalized after AVR (14.4°± 5.2°,P ＜0.001).In controls,LV twist correlated with LVFS (r =0.81,P ＜ 0.001),this relationship was reversed in patients before (r =0.52,P ＜0.01) and after AVR (r =0.34,P ＞0.05).Conclusions In patients with severe AS and normal LVEF,LV twist is exaggerated suggesting potential compensation for reduced long axis function.These disturbances normalize within six months of AVR but lose their relationship with basal LV function.
