Correctly grasping the International Classification of Diseases ICD-10 and surgical classification ICD-9-CM-3 encoding method to improve coding accuracy and professional level is increasingly important to the current hospital information management.Through systematic continuing education training,the relevant personnel should be familiar with ICD-10 and ICD-9-CM-3 encoding rules,and continue to accumulate the appropriate clinical knowledge to improve their own coding levels.Coders should be a basis,six fits,that is based on the international classification of diseases and operation classification coding rules,coders should rcad more medical records,have more communication with clinicians,understand clinical medical knowledge,do more book search query for [CD code,sum up coding experience and multiply track the latest development of medicine and ICD coding.

?AIM: To compare the clinical effect of 23G and 25G+vitrectomy for retinal detachment.?METHODS:Forty seven patients with retinal detachment were treated with 23G vitrectomy (27 eyes in 27 cases as group A) and 25G+ vitrectomy (20 eyes in 20 cases as group B ) . The operation time and the incidence of intraoperative complications were recorded. The occurrence of retinal reposition, visual acuity, intraocular pressure ( IOP ) and complications were observed. Postoperative follow-up time of the two groups were 3d, 1wk, 3mo. The relevant records were statistically analyzed and compared.?RESULTS: The operation time of 23G group and 25G+group were 50. 21+4. 52min, 49. 15+5. 14min,respectively and there was no significant difference between the two groups (P>0. 05). The main complications were retinal hemorrhage and iatrogenic retinal hole. There were 3 eyes with retinal hemorrhage, 2 eyes with iatrogenic retinal hole in 23G group, and 1 eye with retinal hemorrhage, 1 eye with iatrogenic retinal hole in the 25G+group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0. 05). The postoperative visual acuity of 23G group and 25G + group were significantly improved, and the differences between the two groups were not statistically significant at different time points after operation ( P>0. 05). The number of eyes with hypotonia in 23G and 25G+group were 3 and 1 eyes respectively, the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0. 05 ). But there were no significant differences between the two groups on IOP at 1wk and 3mo after surgery (P>0. 05). At the last follow-up, the results showed that 26 eyes ( 96%) with retinal reposition in 23G group, 19 eyes (95%) in 25G+ group, the difference was not statistically significant (P>0. 05).?CONCLUSION: The clinical effect of 23G and 25G+vitrectomy for retinal detachment is similar, but 25G+vitrectomy can reduce incidence of complications and early postoperative low IOP.

Objective To investigate the relationship between metabolic syndrome(MS)and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)in non-obese and non-diabetic hypertensive patients.Method 84 non-obese and non-diabetic hyperlensive patients were divided into 42 hypertensive patients with NAFLD and 42 hypertensive patients without NAFLD by abdominal ultrasonography examination.Body mass index(BMI),blood pressure,fast and OGGT 2 hour plasma glucose,fast and OGGT 2 hour plasma insulin,plasma lipids and aminotransferase were measured in the two groups.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the variables independently associated with MS.Result BMI,triglycerides,fast insulin,2 hour insulin,aminotransferase,HOMA-IB and MS prevalence rate in the group with NAFLD were significantly higher than these in the group without NAFLD.Multivariate logistic regression analysis(forward LR)showed NAFLD:were independently associated with MS.Conclusion MS play a role not only in occurrence of NAFLD but also in liver injury.

Objective The objective of this paper is to statistically analyze what influence can the utilization of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) have on healthcare expenses of inpatients, and to investigate whether TCM has an advantage of reducing healthcare expenses among certain diseases.Method: Inpatient medical records from 13 public general hospitals in Ningxia Hui autonomous region were collected to set up a database.A multiple linear regression models was established and used to analyze the impact of using TCM on hospitalization expenses.Results: The findings have shown that inpatients who apply TCM have significantly higher hospitalization expenses, with an estimated average of ?8 276.24, while those who do not apply TCM in their treatment spend ?7 254.59 on average (P=0.000).When the proportion of TCM expense higher than 10% of total drug expense, inpatients who apply the TCM have lower hospitalization expenses.In addition, hospitalization expenses decrease with the increase of TCM proportion.Among the diseases of the ear and mastoid disease, diseases of the circulatory system, and certain conditions originating in the perinatal period, inpatients who apply TCM have significant lower hospitalization expense (P=0.000).Hospitalization expense of inpatients who do not apply TCM is twice as much as that of those who apply TCM in the treatment of among diseases of the circulatory system, which has the largest TCM proportion.Conclusion: Only when applying TCM as main therapy can provide price advantage of TCM in the circulatory system caused by chronic diseases, and other advantages of treatment.

Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are important kinases involved in the intracellular signaling transduction in mammalian. There are three major MAPK pathways: ERK/MAPK,JNK/SAPK and P38 MAPK. Current studies indicate that all of them play significant roles in the processing of pain especially in the development and maintenance of pathological pain. This review will focus on in the study of MAPK in pain modulation. The further insights into its mechanisms may highlight a nice prospect for the therapies of painful diseases.

Objective:To detect mRNA expression of IL-6 and IL-8 in allergen-induced late-phase cutaneous reactions in schneiderian membrane subjects. Methods:Cryostat sections from rhinitis biopsies from 24 h allergen-induced late-phase cutaneous reactions (LPR) in 10human atopic subjects were hybridization with 35S-labeled RNA probes for IL-6 and IL-8.Results:mRNA was detected for IL-6 (9/10) and IL8 (10/10).Compared with the control, there were significant increases in the numbers of ce11 expreasing mRNA expression for IL-6 and IL-8(P＜0.05, P＜0.01). Conclusion: The augmentation of mRNA expression of IL-6 and IL-8 maybe regarded as the mark of rhinits in IL PR.

Objective To observe the effect of arthroscopic meniscectomy to tr eat discoid lateral meniscus tear. Methods From July 1999 to June 2003, arthrosc opic meniscectomy was conducted for 49 menisci of 45 patients with discoid later al meniscus tear. 41 patients had unilateral injury, and 4 bilateral. 32 knees w ere complete injury and 17 incomplete. The discoid lateral meniscus tear account ed for nearly one third of the patients with meniscus tear who received arthrosc opic meniscectomy at the same time. Arthroscopic partial meniscectomy was done f or 44 knees, total meniscectomy for 5 knees and meniscus suture for 3 knees. Aft er operation the rehabilitation training programs, including straight-leg-rais ing exercise and range-of-motion exercise, were carried out. Results The opera tions for the 45 cases were successful and there was no complication. 40 patient s were followed up. Before operation, the mean Lysholm -Ⅱscore was 55 points ( 40 to 71 points). After a mean follow-up period of 39 months, the mean Lysholm -Ⅱscore was 88 points (60 to 100 points). The excellent and good results were obtained in 85.3%of the patients. Conclusions Arthroscopic meniscectomy should be a preferred method for discoid lateral menisci tear, due to its minimal invas ion, possibility of early mobilization, a lower complication rate, and preservat ion of more meniscus structure and function. If the operation is combined with s tandard rehabilitation training, the effects can be enhanced.
