Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of topical corticosteroids injection and systemic application in the treatment of sudden hearing loss.Methods Total of 58 patients with sudden hearing loss were ran-domly divided into two groups.The systemic application group:dexamethasone (DEX)was applied by intravenous injection in dose of 10mg ×3d,followed by 5mg ×4d.And the postauricular injection group:methylprednisolone sodium succinate of 40mg was injected into cortical bone of mastoid region every three days,until hearing back to normal,or 15 days.SPSS 13.0 software was used to analyze the data.Results The total effective rate of systemic application group was 67.7%,the total effective rate of postauricular injection group was 64.7%.There was no statistical differ-ence between the two groups (χ2 =2.58,P =0.316).The recovery rate in cases with postauricular injection group was significantly increased in comparison with the systemic application group,but no statistical difference between the two groups(t =2.71,P =0.062).Patients with hearing loss in low frequencies(250Hz,500Hz),the recovery rate in cases with postauricular injection group was significantly increased in comparison with the systemic application group (t =3.82,P =0.031;t =3.26,P =0.042).Conclusion Postauricular topical injection and systemic application of glucocorticoids in the treatment of sudden hearing loss are all have good curative effect.Systemic application is select-ed by conventional treatment,and topical injection has a better effect in the hearing loss of low -middle frequencies.

Objective To investigate the effect of modified suture on the maternal skin healing, scar healing and satisfaction to cesarean section. Methods A total of 244 cases of cesarean section in our hospital from January 2015 to January 2016 were randomly collected and divided into observation group (n=143) and control group (n=101). Patients in the observation group were treated with the modified suture method, and the control group was given the conventional method to suture the skin. The VAS score, suture time and complication rate were observed in the 2 groups. Results The VAS scores were significantly lower at one week and one month after operation (1.15±0.43 and 0.07±0.01, respectively) than those of the control group (1.40±0.51 and 0.13±0.03, respectively, P<0.05). The suture time were significantly shorter in the observation group (5.12±0.95) than those of control group (7.28±0.83, P<0.05). Postoperative complication rate was significantly lower in observation group (2.80%) than that of control group (9.90%, P<0.05). The comfort level to incision and satisfaction rate to scar were significantly higher (94.41% and 95.10%, respectively) than those of control group (83.17% and 87.13%, respectively). The average thickness of scars at day 90 and day 180 after operation were significantly less in the observation group [(2.14±0.32) mm and (3.08±1.02) mm, respectively] than those of the control group [(3.10±0.48) mm and (5.22±1.10) mm, respectively, P<0.05)]. Conclusion The improved suture method after cesarean section has the advantages of shorter suture time, less poor wound healing, higher maternal satisfaction rate.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of the low tube voltage setting and personalized contrast agent application in 64-row multi-slice spiral CT pulmonary angiography.Methods Ninety patients with high risk of pulmonary artery embolism were sequentially enrolled in the study and divided into 3 groups employing completely randomized design: (1) Regular group included 30 patients using 120 kV and fixed dose of 70 ml contrast agent, (2)Another 30 patients were in 120 kV group, using 120 kV and the contrast amount was determined according to the patient weight (1.0 ml/kg), (3) The remaining 30 patients were included in 100 kV group, using 100 kV and the contrast amount was also determined according to the patient weight(1.0 ml/kg).Administration of contrast agent was completed within 20 seconds for all the patients, followed by 20 ml of saline.The objective and subjective indexes for assessing CT image quality, CT dose index volume (CTDIvol) and effective received dose (ERD) were compared between 120 kV group and 100 kV group; then the contrast media volume, injection rate, objective CT image indexes and subjective indexes for image quality was compared between the 100 kV group and regular group.The variance analysis and post hoc test were employed for the statistical analysis.Results Compared with 120 kV group(3.4± 0.7), the image quality of 100 kV group(5.2±1.8)had higher noise(52.9%), but subjective index for the image quality demonstrated no differences(q=0.272 ,P=0.063)in mediastinum window while CTDIvol and ERD decreased for 34.9%[(9.5±0.0) vs (14.6±0.0) mGy]and 36.8%[(3.8±0.6) vs (2.4± 0.4) mSv].The mean CT values on pulmonary artery of 100 kV group[(269.2±54.7) HU]were 13.4% (31.8/237.4) higher than the 120 kV group[(237.4±62.9) HU], but there was no statistical differences eornpared to normal group(q=0.172,P=0.260).Conclusion Using low kV setting (100 kV) to reduce radiation dose is proved to be effective and feasible in 64-MSCT pulmonary angiography.Personalized contrast agent injection has clinical application value for specific patient group.

BACKGROUND: During recent years, mononucleotide polymorphism of some genes is possibly related to affectability of osteoarthritis (OA). However, previous researches mainly compare the gene expression of synoviocytes between OA and rheumatoid arthritis (RhA); therefore, the correlation of gene expression between synovioblast and fibroblast in other tissues should be further studied as compared with OA.OBJ ECTIVE: To observe the differences of gene expression between OA synovioblast and skin fibroblast.DESIGN: Observational contrast analysis.SETTING: People's Hospital of Shenzhen City.PARTICIPANTS: Synovium tissue was derived from OA patients who received replacement of knee joint in the Department of Orthopaedics, People's Hospital of Shenzhen City. All OA patients met the diagnostic criteria of osteoarthritis established by American College of Rheumatology in 1995. Three patients including 1 male and 2 females aged more than 65 years old and they did not have cardiac and pulmonary disease and diabetes mellitus. Three male normal volunteers who aged 25 to 35 years did not have rheumatic disease, osteoarthritis and dermatosis. All subjects provided a confirmed consent. The main reagents were detailed as follows: RPMI1640 culture medium, fetal bovine serum and TRIZOL agent (Invitrogen Life Technologies Company, USA); pGEM-T pUC (Progema Company, USA);Display PROFILE-BASIC and Display PROFILE Probe kits (Qbiogen Company, USA).METHODS: The experiment was carried out in People's Hospital of Shenzhen City from January to June 2005. Synovium of OA patients were treated with primary culture to obtain synovioblast; meanwhile, skin fibroblast treated with primary culture from normal subjects was regarded as the control group. Restricted enzyme section differential display was used to separate the different-expressed genes of synovioblast and skin fibroblast in OA patients. In addition, blast technique was used to compare the resulted ranks with Genbank ranks.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Differences of gene expression between synovioblast and skin fibroblast in OA patients.RESULTS: Gene expressions of superoxide dismutase (SOD), TFPI2, CXCL2, CXCL6 and transforming growth factor (TGF) were high in synovioblast of OA patients as compared with those in skin fibroblast of normal subjects.CONCLUSION: Gene expressions of SOD, TFPI2, CXCL2, CXCL6 and TGF are high in synovioblast of OA patients as compared with those in skin fibroblast of normal subjects. This suggests that gene may play a certain role in onset of OA.
