Objective To explore and evaluate the hemostatic effects of hemocoagulase in elderly surgery bleeding. Methods 150 cases (60~75 years old)admitted to Affiliated Hospital of Chuanbei Medical College for abdominal operation from June 2011 to June 2012 were used as subject. They were divided radomly into hemocoagulase group (50 cases),reptilase group (50 cases)and physiological saline solution group (50 cases). The hemostatic time,hemorrhagic volume,hemorrhagic volume per square unit,and body coagulation parameters in three groups were observed and compared. Results The hemorrhagic volume in hemocoagulase group was (9.2 ±2.7 )g,average hemostatic time was (124.5 ±45.7 )s,and hemorrhagic volume per square unit was (0.3 ±0.1 )g,which were similar with reptilase group,but significantly different with those in physiological saline solution group (P<0.05 ). In hemocoagulase and reptilase groups,the hemorrhagic and hemoagglution time decreased in 30 minutes and 1 day after operation, the differences were statistically significant when compared with physiological saline solution group (P <0.05 ).Conclusion Hemocoagulase has better hemostatic effect on hemorrhagic capillary in elderly surgery.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the surgical approaches for maxillary sinus cyst. METHODS A total of 32 patients with maxillary sinus cyst underwent operation for removal the cysts. Among them, 8 patients with maxillary sinus cyst and sinusitis were operated on through Messerklinger approach, 19 patients with maxillary cyst received modified Caldwell-Luc operation under nasal endoscope and 5 patients received endoscopic removal of maxillary cyst through the maxillary sinus antrostomy at the inferior nasal meatus. RESULTS All the patients were followed up for 6 months to one year. There was no recurrence found in patients received modified Caldwell-Luc operation. There were 2 patients recurred in 8 patients who were operated on through Messerklinger approach and one patient had closure of the maxillary sinus ostium and adhesion of nasal cavity. One patient recurred and 2 lost follow up in 5 patients who received endoscopic removal of maxillary cyst through the maxillary sinus antrostomy at the inferior nasal meatus. CONCLUSION The optimal surgical method for maxillary cyst is modified Caldwell-Luc operation under nasal endoscope. Messerklinger technique may suitable for patients with complicated sinusitis.

Objective To assess the correlation between tenosynovitis or rupture of the flexor hallucis longus (FHL) and pes planus in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Methods The data of 47 RA patients (97 feet) with painful feet was retrospectively analyzed which was collected From February 2008 to June 2011.In accordance with the results of the FHL changes got by ultrasonography,the patients were divided into 3 groups.Group A consisted of those with normal FHL (27 feet).Group B consisted of those with FHL tenosynovitis (40 feet),and Group C eonsisted of those with FHL rupture (27 feet).Load bearing lateral radiographs were taken for all the patients.The correlation study was carried out based on the pes planus-related parameters,such as the measurement of heel pitch angle (HPA) and tarsal and 1st metatarsal angle (TM1).Factors like patients' age and course of disease were also taken into the consideration during the study.Results The mean age of those in group A was 49.9±9.2 years vs.56.2±9.2 years in group B and 54.7±8.0 years in group C.The mean duration was 4.7±2.6 years in Group A vs.16.2±7.4 years in Group B 5°±3.6° in Group C.The mean TM1 was 2.5°±2.2° in Group A vs.6.5°±3.2° in Group B and 11.2°±4.9° in Group C.Significant statistics difference were found among the three groups in these parameters.HPA＜ 20° was found among 6/27 feet in group A,31/40 in group B and 27/27 in group C.TM1 ＞4° was found among 5/27 feet in group A,30/40 in group B and 27/27 in group C.Conclusion FHL changes were common in RA patients and its severitv had positive correlation to pes planus.These changes were affected by age and duration,and could be evaluated effectively by ultrasound.

Objective To observe the efficacy of antithrombotic treatment of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients with failure primary percutaneous coronary intervention because of high thrombus burden,and its effect on elective percutaneous coronary intervention.Methods Eight acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients were enrolled,who suffered from failure of primary percutaneous coronary intervention because of high thrombus burden.Summarize the antithrombotic strategies in perioperative and postoperative period,the operative strategies and the follow-up coronary intervention were recorded and reviewed.Results All the patients were male and most of them had acute inferior myocardial infarction with right coronary occluded because of high thrombus burden.Four patients received thrombus aspiration and balloon dilation.One patient received thrombus aspiration and the other three patients did not receive coronary intervention.Tirofiban were given in perioperative period to all the patients.Low molecular weight heparin was given to 6 patients.Dual antiplatelet therapy was given to 6 patients (aspirin 100 mg/day plus clopidogrel 75 mg/day) and 1 patient required up-titration of aspirin to 200 mg/day.Coronary angiography were repeated (29.00 ± 23.25) days later,and the thrombus in the culprit vessels disappeared in two patients,and coronary stent implantation was performed in three patients.Conclusions The routine antithrombotic strategies play limited roles in thrombus clearance in acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction patients with failure primary percutaneous coronary intervention because of high thrombus burden.The time for the thrombus to be totally organized and the timing of elective percutaneous coronary intervention are still uncertain and need to be further studied.

Objective To study the relationship between the rheumatoid arthritis (RA) flatfoot and flexor pollicis longus tendon (FHL) lesion.Methods A total of 120 rheumatoid arthritis flatfoot patients (120 feet) was admitted to our hospital,and were examined by uhrasonography.Foot flexor hallucis longus tendon lesions were analyzed.Theses patients were divided into intact tendon group (group A) with 48 cases,tendon inflammation group (group B) with 45 cases,and tendon rupture group (C group) with 27 cases according to the ultrasound flexor hallucis longus tendon lesions degree.Foot bearing radiographs of all patients were measured,and hallux valgus angle between the first and second metatarsal bones were measured,and the relationship between the flexor pollicis longus tendon lesion degree and hallux valgus angle were analyzed.Results There were 48 cases (40％)with normal FHL,45 cases(37.5％)with FHlL inflammation,and 21 cases(22.5％) with FHL fractures.It revealed that HVA was positively correlated with IMA in group A and B (P ＜ 0.05).But there was no correlation between HVA and IMA in group C (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion FHL is a common RA flatfoot disease,but FHL is not the initial cause of RA hallux valgus,but is positively correlated with the degree of hallux valgus.

Objective This study focuses on the construction and cultivation of young administrative management per-sonnel in Shanghai's public hospitals,aiming to provide scientific support for the development of high-quality young administra-tive management professionals in public hospitals.Methods Utilizing an anonymous online survey,this research collected data on the current state of subjective well-being and its influencing factors among the targeted groups from hospitals.Analysis of vari-ance and multivariate analysis were conducted to analyze potential factors affecting their sense of well-being.Results A total of 171 cases were included in the survey,with an average score of 80.37.This group of respondents exhibited a higher level of sub-jective well-being compared to the national norm.Notably,young administrative staff who had obtained Shanghai residency,had a surplus income,spent time with family after work,had career advancement opportunities,felt a strong connection to their work's value,and received affirmation from family members,demonstrated higher subjective well-being scores,with significant statisti-cal differences(P＜0.05).Conversely,those with an income ranging from 0 to 100 000,and those who felt overwhelmed by their current roles,scored lower on well-being,with significant statistical differences(P＜0.05).Conclusion This study sug-gests that by bolstering professional security and job stability,fostering a set of correct values and a sense of work identity,and improving job satisfaction and competence,the subjective well-being of this group can be further elevated.This,in turn,can in-ject new momentum into the high-quality development of public hospitals.

Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 135 cm Corsair microcatheter inpercutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for coronary chronic total occlusion (CTO) with antegrade approach via radial artery. Methods From June 2010 to February 2014, a total of 81 patients with CTO lesions treated with 135cm Corsair microcatheter (Asahi Intec Co, Japan) and transradial antegrade approach was enrolled in this study. The success rate of CTO-PCI, the rate of Corsair microcatheter crossing the CTO lesions and the number of balloon catheters utilization were retrospectively analyzed. Unique complications related to the Corsair microcatheter were also documented. Results Success recanalization of CTO were achieved in 73 (90.1%) patients. Crossing the CTO body with Corsair microcatheter was found in 56(84.8%) patients. The number of balloon utilized after Corsair microcatheter crossing the CTO was much lower than that of patients who Corsair microcatheter failed to cross (1.3±0.6 per patient versus 2.8±1.2per patient, P < 0.05). The success recanalization rate of combined using Fielder XT guidewire with Corsair microcatheter was 51.5%. There was no complications related to Corsair microcatheter during the index procedure, no major adverse cardiac events during in-hospital clinical follow-up. Conclusions Corsair microcatheter was safe and effective in the recanalization for CTO with transradialantegrade approach. It can simplify the CTO-PCI procedure and reduce the number of balloon catheters.

Objective:To explore the impact of multimorbidity on disability in older adults, providing a reference for formulating strategies for the management and nursing of multimorbidity and disability in older adults.Methods:Adopting the method of cross-sectional survey research, the data of 6 469 older adults (≥60 years old) were collected from the 2018 Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey database in July 2023, including basic information, chronic disease prevalence, and disability measured by basic activities of daily living (BADL), and instrumental activities of daily living (IADL). They were divided into multimorbidity and non-multimorbidity groups based on whether they had two or more chronic diseases. The propensity score matching (PSM) method was used to match the basic conditions of the two groups of older adults with the proportion of 1∶1. Binary logistic regression was applied to analyze the effects of multimorbidity on BADL disability and IADL disability.Results:Among 6 469 older adults, there were 2 882 males and 3 582 females, with 3 158 aged 60-84 years old and 3 311 aged over 84 years old. BADL disability accounted for 26.5% (1 712/6 469), while IADL disability accounted for 66.8% (4 324/6 469). There were 2 335 patients in the multimorbidity group and 4 134 patients in the non-multimorbidity group. Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of BADL disability in older adults in multimorbidity group was 1.511 times higher than that in the non-multimorbidity group (95% CI 1.317-1.734, P<0.01); the risk of IADL disability in older adults in the multimorbidity group was 1.618 times higher than that in the non-multimorbidity group (95% CI 1.426-1.835, P<0.01). Conclusions:Multimorbidity would increase the risk of disability in older adults. Relevant authorities should develop relevant interventions and nursing responses to enhance the prevention and management of multimorbidity and disability in older adults.
