RESULTS The major risk factors might be infectious disease,duration of central venous catheter in,location of catheter, type of catheter and material of catheter,and serum protein

ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence and distribution characteristics of dental fluorosis of children aged 8 - 12 in Wushan and Fengjie counties of Chongqing and to provide a scientific basis for prevention and control of the disease.MethodsTwenty townships(towns) in Fengjie county and 18 in Wushan county were selected as survey points by random cluster sampling in 2010.Dental fluorosis of all the children aged 8 - 12 was examined with Dean index.The detection rate of children's dental fluorosis,defect rate and dental fluorosis index were compared between the two counties.Results Totally 38 209 children aged 8 - 12 were investigated.The total detection rate of dental fluorosis was 43.09％( 16 466/38 209) in the two counties.The detection rates of dental fluorosis in Wushan and Fengjie were 48.98％ (9397/19 186)and 37.16％(7069/19 023),respectively,and the difference was statistically significant(x2 =544.03,P ＜ 0.01 ).Total detection rates of dental fluorosis of the five age groups(8,9,10,11,and 12-year-old age groups) were 32.52％(2157/6632),40.07％(2672/6668),43.67％(3420/7831 ),46.01％ (3861/8391) and 50.14％ (4356/8687),respectively,and the difference was statistically significant (x2 =510.50,P ＜ 0.01),Dental fluorosis indexes in Wushan and Fengjie were 0.713 and 0.485,respectively.Defect rates of dental fluorosis in Wushan and Fengjie were 4.05％ (777/19 186) and 1.57％(298/19 023),respectively.Conclusions The total detection rate of dental fluorosis of the two counties is still high,which gradually increases with age.Wushan is still an endemic area of dental fluorosis,and Fengjie is at the edge of the

OBJECTIVE: This paper presents a method for treating maxillary neuralgia, the second division of trigeminal nerve. METHOD: One hundred and thirty six cases with 136 trigeminal neuralgia were treated from 2004 to 2011. All patients were treated with endoscopic surgery at the pterygopalatofossa through approach to the maxillary sinus for resecting maxillary nerve and infraorbital nerve. RESULT: One hundred and eighteen patients were relieved after operation and no recurrence of neuralgia was occurred after 2 to 8 years of follow-up. CONCLUSION This method had the advantages of avoiding to operate craniotomy with no complications, which was performed easily with valid efficacy.

ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy of laparoscopic hepatectomy for regional hepatolithiasis.MethodsThe clinical data of 81 patients with regional hepatolithiasis who received laparoscopic hepatectomy at the Southwest Hospital from March 2007 to March 2011 were retrospectively analyzed.Based on the classification of the Guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of hepatolithiasis 2007 version and indications for open surgery,hepatic lobes with calculi,biliary stricture or dilated bile ducts were resected laparoscopically after preoperative examination.Bile ducts of the remnant hepatic lobes were explored using fiber choledochoscope or electronic choledochoscope for the prevention of residual stones. Results Laparoscopic hepatectomy was successfully performed on 72 patients,and the other 9 patients were converted to open surgery. Left lateral lobectomy ( segments Ⅱ,Ⅲ ) was performed on 20 patients,left hemihepatectomy ( segments Ⅱ,Ⅲ,Ⅳ ) on 30 patients,right posterior lobectomy ( segments Ⅵ,Ⅶ ) on 11 patients,right anterior lobectomy ( segments Ⅴ,Ⅷ ) on 6patients,right hemihepateetomy (segments Ⅴ,Ⅵ,Ⅶ,Ⅷ ) on 9 patients,hepatic Ⅲ segmentectomy on 2 patients and hepatic Ⅵ segmentectomy on 3 patients.Gallbladders were resected,and intermittent portal triad clamping was performed on 15 patients.Hepateetomy combined with biliary exploration and stone removal was performed on 57 patients.The mean operation time and operative blood loss were (328 ± 80)minutes and (451 ±288) ml,respectively.No operative mortality was observed.Sixteen patients had postoperative complications,including pulmonary infection in 2 patients,pleural effusion in 4 patients,encapsulated effusion in the resection margin in 6 patients,abdominal infection and abscess in 2 patients and wound infection in 2 patients.Of the 16patients with complications,9 were cured by medicine,6 by pleural or abdominal drainage and 1 by wound debridement.The mean duration of hospital stay was ( 13 + 6)days.The intraoperative stone clearance rate was 96％ (69/72),and the residual stone in 3 patients were removed by choledochoscopy.Sixty-nine patients were followed up for 7-55 months,7 patients had symptoms of cholangitis and 2 patients had common bile duct stone recurrence.ConclusionsLaparoscopie hepatectomy is sate and effective for regional hepatolithiasis.Accurate positioning of the stones and lesions pre- and intra-operatively,reasonable designing of the parenchymal transection plane,and anatomical liver resection are the key points for achiving good therapeutic effects.
