[Objective]To compare the effects of continuous femoral nerve block(CFNB) and epidural analgesia(CEA) on rehabilitation after total knee arthroplasty(TKA) surgery. [Methods]Fifty patients undergoing unilateral TKA surgery were randomly divided into group CFNB(n=25) and group CEA(n=25).All patients were received unilateral spinal anesthesia with 0.5% dicaine and given analgesia with 0.2 % ropivacaine with 1ug/ml sufentanil.VAS pain scores during rest and continuous passive movement(CPM) at each time point was recorded.Other parameter such as the angle of initiative flections,blood loss at 6 h post operation,the concentration of serum hemoglobin at 24 h,48 h and side effect were recorded.[Results]The VAS pain scores during test had no significant difference between two groups.The VAS scores of CPM at 24 h and 48 h in group CFNB were obvious lower(3.68?0.93 and 3.93?0.78) than those in group CEA.The initiative flections were similar at 12 and 24 hours after operation.The concentration of hemoglobin at 6 h after operation was lower than that before operation.After reinfusion it was increased but did not reach the level before operation.The incidence of side effects was not noted in both groups.[Conclusion]After TKA surgery,the continuous femoral nerve block can provide better pain relief.No adverse impact on rehabilitation movement of operated legs or blood loss and has less side effect.Therefore,it should be considered an alternative analgesia method after TKA.

Objective To evaluate the effects of nutritional support in patients with ERCP.Methods One hundred and fourteen in patients with ERCP From Apr.2003 to Oct.2008 were reviewed retrospectively,and the clinical value and complications of nutritional support were evaluated.Results One hundred fourteen inpatients examined with ERCP,were divided into two groups;parenteral group(re = 46)and electrolytes treatment group(re = 68).There were no significant difference in length of hospital stay and postoperative complications between the two groups.Electrolytes treatment group had lower relevant hospital cost.Sixty-three patients were fasting 12 hours(eating group),and 51 patients were fasting 24 hours(fasting group).There were no significant difference in cost,length of hospital stay,postoperative complications between the two groups.Conclusions The rate of parenteral nutrition in patients with ERCP were relatively higher,the application of parenteral nutrition was unnecessarily overdose;Early enteral nutrition is safe in successful operating patients.

Objective To study the diagnoses and treatment of alimentary tract bleeding of unknown causes. Methods All cases were undergone angiographic exarmination. Results 23 cases of angiographic display of alimentary tract bleeding showed the localization and causes of bleeding were clear in 21 casses. 2 cases were negative in radiography. 8 had been given the treatment of interventional embolization. Conclusions This article showed the angiographic display for the diagnosis, and the interventional treatment of alimentary tract bleeding with points for attention.

Objective To invetigate the application value of antigen‐antibody joint detection in increasing the detection rate of hepatitis C infection in the patients with hemodialysis .Methods The clinical data of 100 cases of hemodialysis were collected .Hep‐atitis C virus(HCV) core antigen ,HCV antibody and HCV‐RNA were detected by adopting ELISA ,Chemiluminescence and RT‐PCR respectively .The positive expression situation of each detection item in the same specimen was performed statistics .The detec‐tion rates of RNA positive specimen were compared among the single antigen detection ,single antibody detection and joint detection schemes ;at the same time the antigen level of antigen positive specimens ant its RNA copy number were performed the correlation analysis .The antibody levels in the positive antibody specimens were compared between the RNA positive group and the RNA neg‐ative group .Results The single antigen or single antibody detection could cause the missed detection of HCV infection in hemodial‐ysis patients .For the specimens of positive RNA ,the joint detection had the highest detection rate (P<0 .05) ,the antigen level in the antigen positive specimens was positively correlated with the RNA copy number in the corresponding specimens (r=0 .85 ,P<0 .05) ,while the antibody level in the antibody positive specimens had no statistical difference between the RNA positive group and the RNA negative group(P>0 .05) .Conclusion The joint detection of HCV antigen antibody can effectively increase the detection rate of hepatitis C infection in hemodialysis patients .At the same time the HCV core antigen detection also can be used as one of monitoring indicators for the HCV re -infection in the patients with antibody positive .

BackgroundThe effects of extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMFs) on public health have attracted wide attentions.The association of the thermal effect of ELF-EMFs with cancer and ocular tissue damage has been of concern.However,the pathological changes of scleral tissue after exposure to ELF-EMFs as well as the relationship between these changes and myopia are still poorly understood.ObjectiveThe present study was to investigate the molecular pathological changes of human fetal scleral fibroblasts (HFSFs) after exposure to ELF-EMFs in vitro and to explore the possible mechanism in the occurrence and development of myopia.MethodsHFSFs were cultured and passaged and then exposed to 50 Hz electromagnetic fields,and HFSFs that did not receive the irradiation of ELF-EMFs were used as the control group.The expression of collagen type Ⅰ (COL1A1 ) mRNA and matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) mRNA in cultured HFSFs were detected by real-time qualitative polymerase chain reaction (real-time PCR) under different magnetic field intensites (0,0.1,0.2,0.5,1.0 mT) and different exposure time (0,6,12,24,36,48 hours).Cell proliferation assay of HFSFs was detected by the cell counting kit 8 ( CCK8 ) assay.The expression levels of COL1 A1 and MMP-2 proteins in HFSFs were further confirmed by immunofluorescence staining.Results The expression of COL1A1 mRNA was significantly down-regulated under the exposure of 0.2 mT ELF-EMFs for 6 hours,in comparison with the control group;moreover,it decreased in parallel with the increased of flux density (0.099±0.008 vs.0.050±0.004) (P =0.009 ).The expression of MMP-2mRNA was up-regulated conspicuously after exposure to 0.1 mT ELF-EMFs for 24 hours,and it increased with exposure time in comparison with the control group ( 0.009 ±0.001 vs.0.018±0.003 ) ( P =0.038 ).Proliferation of HFSFs (A450) was inhibited following the exposure to 0.2 mT ELF-EMFs for 24 hours in comparison with the control group (P =0.009 ).The expression of COL1 A1 in the experimental group was decreased,compared with the control group,but the expression of MMP-2 was increased.ConclusionsELF-EMFs inhibit the proliferation of HFSFs and expression of COL1 A1 in HFSFs,which might be one of the reasons for the development of myopia.

Objective To understand brucellosis infective status of Shapotou District, Zhongwei City of Ningxia. Methods The methods of stratified random sampling of epidemiological survey were used among high risk groups in 2008, who underwent erythromycin red plate cohesion test(RBDT) and test-tube agglutination test (SAT), in accordance with the diagnostic criteria for confirming cases of brucellosis(GB 15988-1995). Results Totally an occupational group of 2480 brucellosis in 10 townships were investigated, and 604 sera were tested. Tweenty eight cases were infected, the infective rate was 4.64%(28/604), 15 cases were diagnosed as brucellosis patients, prevalence rate was 2.48% (15/604); cattle attendants had the highest infection rate of 6.45% (26/403). Conclusions Brucellosis epidemic in Shapotou District, Zhongwei City of Ningxia, and it is place related to vocation.
