Objective To explore the effect of different hemostatic methods on ovarian function in la-paroscopic ovarian endometriosis cyst enucleation. Methods 200 cases of stage I and II ovarian endometriosis cyst admitted to our hospital from Jan. 2012 to Apr. 2014 were selected. All patients underwent conventional la-paroscopic ovarian endometrial endometriosis cyst enucleation. According to intraoperative hemostasis methods, patients were divided into 3 groups: suture group (n=70), electric coagulation group (n=70), and ultrasonic scalpel group (n=60). Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and antibody forming cells (AFC) on admission and at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery were recorded. Peak systolic blood flow of ovarian stromal artery (PSV) was also observed. Results FSH for all the three groups were improved compared with that on admission, and the difference had statistical significance (P<0.05). FSH for the suture group was significantly lower than that in the electric coagulation group and ultrasound knife group at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after operation. The difference had statistical significance (P<0.05). AFC at one month after surgery had no statistical significance between the 3 groups (P>0.05). however, AFC of the suture group at 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery was significantly im-proved compared with those of the the electric coagulation group and ultrasound knife group. The difference had statistical significance (P<0.05). Vaginal type B ultrasonic examination after operation showed that PSV of the su-ture group was higher than that of the electric coagulation group and ultrasound knife group at the second menstru-ation and at the 6-month menstruation after surgery. The difference of PSV between the 3 groups had statistical significance (P<0.05). Conclusion Compared electric coagulation hemostasis and ultrasonic scalpel hemostasis, the suture method can reduce damage of ovarian function in patients with ovarian endometriosis cyst, which is worth to promote.

BACKGROUND: Senile intertrochanteric fracture is characterized as aging, instability, more complications and high mortality, so choosing an appropriate internal fixation method is critical.OBJECTIVE: To compare the curative efficacy of proximal femoral nail anti-rotation and locking proximal femoral plate for senile osteoporotic patients with unstable intertrochanteric fractures.METHODS: Sixty elderly patients with unstable intertrochanteric fractures were enrolled, and the clinical data were collected. They were randomized into treatment and control groups (n=30 per group), and subjected to internal fixation using proximal femoral nail anti-rotation and locking proximal femoral plate, respectively. The operative indexes,functional recovery and complications were observed in the two groups RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The incision length, operation time, intraoperative blood loss and time of weight bearing in the treatment group were significantly less than those in the control group (P < 0.01). (2) Harris hip scores in the treatment group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). (3) The incidence of complications in the treatment group was obviously lower than that in the control group. (4) To conclude, the proximal femoral nail anti-rotation exhibits satisfactory treatment outcomes in the internal fixation of unstable intertrochanteric fractures.

Objective To investigate the effect of acetyl-L-carnitine (ALC) preconditioning on the PC12 cell apoptosis induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation.Methods PC12 cells were seeded in 96-well plates and randomly divided into 5 groups ( n =6 each):control group (group C),cell injury group (group Ⅰ) and preconditioning with different concentrations of ALC groups (groups A1-3 ).In group C,the cells were incubated with DMEM liquid culture medium containing glucose 0.5 g/L for 3 h.In groups Ⅰ and A1-3 the cells were incubated with DMEM liquid culture medium containing sodium hydrosulfite (Na2S2O4) 3 mmol/L and glucose 0.5 g/L for 3 h,and in addition the cells were pre-incubated with ALC 0.2,0.4 and 0.6 mmol/L for 24 h in groups A1-3 respectively.Cell viability was evaluated by MTF assay,while the apoptosis in cells was detected using TUNEL.The activities of ATPase and SOD and MDA content were also detected.Results Oxygen-glucose deprivation significantly increased the number of apoptotic cells and the content of MDA,and decreased the cell viability and activities of SOD and ATPase in group Ⅰ compared with group C ( P ＜ 0.05).Preconditioning with ALC significantly increased the cell viability and the activities of SOD and ATPaes,and decreased the number of apoptotic cells and the content of MDA in groups A1-3 compared with group Ⅰ ( P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion ALC preconditioning can attenuate PC12 cell injury induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation through inhibition of apoptosis in cells.

Objective:The pain-relieving effect and safety of compound aminopyrine phenacetin tab-lets,tramcontin(tramadol hydrochloride sustained-release tablets)and dolantin in the early stage of au-tologous tendon reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament(ACL)of the knee joint were compared.Methods:Retrospective analysis of postoperative pain and drug analgesia in 45 patients performed by the same group from November 2018 to February 2019.The random area group design was divided into two groups according to whether ACL rupture was combined with meniscal injury,group A was 24 patients with ACL reconstruction of knee joint and group B was 21 patients with ACL fracture combined with me-niscus injury.The two groups were divided into three subgroups respectively according to the actual treat-ment of postoperative analgesic drugs received by the patients,including 4 cases of compound aminopy-rine phenacetin tablets,11 cases of oral tramcontin,9 cases of intramuscular dolantin combined with phenergan in group A;3 cases of compound aminopyrine phenacetin tablets,10 cases of oral tramcontin,and 8 cases of intramuscular dolantin combined with phenergan in group B.When the early postoperative patients complain about pain and actively ask for analgesia.When the patients complained about pain af-ter the operation and actively asked for analgesia,they were randomly given painkillers,tramcontin or do-lantin combined with phenergan to relieve pain.Pain visual analogue scale(VAS)was used to evaluate pain relief and observe the occurrence of adverse reactions.Results:There were no significant dif-ferences in gender,age,body mass index,and time of hospital stay between the two groups of patients(P＞0.05).In the patients who used tramcontin and dolantin combined with phenergan to relieve pain judging by VAS score before and 1 h after taking the drug,it was found that the pain situation of the pa-tient was significantly relieved,and the difference before and after taking the drug had statistical signifi-cance(P＜0.05).Pairwise comparisons of the three drugs applied in the two groups showed significantly greater pain relief in the dolantin combined with phenergan group than in the remaining two drugs.There was no significant difference(P＞0.05).Dolantin was prone to nausea and vomiting,but the application of phenergan was also used to reduce side effects.In terms of adverse reactions,only 1 case of nausea oc-curred in the tramcontin group for simple ACL reconstruction,and none of the patients in the other groups showed serious complications and allergic reactions.Conclusion:Whether in cruciate ligament recon-struction alone or combined with meniscus molding or suture,compound aminopyrine phenacetin tablets,tramcontin,dolantin combined with phenergan can effectively relieve pain.Among the three drugs,do-lantin caused the largest pain relief.At the same time,the combination of phenergan effectively reduced the adverse reactions,such as vomiting and nausea,and increased the drug safety.

OBJECTIVE: To validate the effectiveness of a novel comprehensive classification for intertrochanteric fracture (ITF). METHODS: The study included 616 patients with ITF, including 279 males (45.29%) and 337 females (54.71%); the age ranged from 23 to 100 years, with an average of 72.5 years. Two orthopaedic residents (observers Ⅰ and Ⅱ) and two senior orthopaedic surgeons (observers Ⅲ and Ⅳ) were selected to classify the CT imaging data of 616 patients in a random order by using the AO/Orthopaedic Trauma Association (AO/OTA) classification of 1996/2007 edition, the AO/OTA classification of 2018 edition, and the novel comprehensive classification method at an interval of 1 month. Kappa consistency test was used to evaluate the intra-observer and inter-observer consistency of the three ITF classification systems. RESULTS: The inter-observer consistency of the three classification systems evaluated by 4 observers twice showed that the 3 classification systems had strong inter-observer consistency. Among them, the κ value of the novel comprehensive classification was higher than that of the AO/OTA classification of 1996/2007 edition and 2018 edition, and the experience of observers had a certain impact on the classification results, and the inter-observer consistency of orthopaedic residents was slightly better than that of senior orthopaedic surgeons. The intra-observer consistency of two evaluations of three classification systems by 4 observers showed that the consistency of the novel comprehensive classification was better for the other 3 observers, except that the consistency of observer Ⅳ in the AO/OTA classification of 2018 version was slightly higher than that of the novel comprehensive classification. The results showed that the novel comprehensive classification has higher repeatability, and the intra-observer consistency of senior orthopaedic surgeons was better than that of orthopaedic residents. CONCLUSION The novel comprehensive classification system has good intra- and inter-observer consistency, and has high validity in the classification of CT images of ITF patients; the experience of observers has a certain impact on the results of the three classification systems, and those with more experiences have higher intra-observer consistency.
