Objective: To analyze the clinical effect of pelvic floor rehabilitation therapy combined with traditional Chinese medicine prescription in the treatment of female pressure urinary incontinence, and its influence on quality of life. Methods: A retrospective study of 190 females with stress urinary incontinence was conducted.The patients were divided into control group and observation group according to the treatment method.Patients in the control group were treated with pelvic floor rehabilitation.The observation group was treated with traditional Chinese medicine prescription based on the treatment of the control group.The therapeutic effect of the two groups was analyzed. Results: The total effective rate of the observation group was 96.84%, which was significantly higher than 86.32% of the control group (χ²=3.168, P<0.05). After treatment, the maximal urethral pressure, maximum urethral closure pressure of the observation group were (55.16±8.96)cmH₂O, (45.65±12.41)cmH₂O, respectively, which of the control group were (40.58±5.64)cmH₂O, (31.69±8.87)cmH₂O, respectively, the differences between the two groups were statistically significant (t=6.456, 5.124, all P<0.05). After treatment, the scores of restrictive behaviors, social psychology, formed the social awkwardness of the observation group were (73.54±12.54)points, (75.23±14.11)points, (76.21±15.12)points, respectively, which of the control group were (67.13±7.84)points, (68.16±8.14)points and (65.28±8.13)points, respectively, the differences between the two groups were statistically significant(t=5.124, 4.058, 6.218, all P<0.05). Conclusion The clinical curative effect of pelvic floor rehabilitation combined with traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence is better than pure pelvic floor rehabilitation, it can improve women's quality of life, the bladder urine storage and urinary continence ability, it is worthy of popularizing in clinical application.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical effect of Kirschner wire retractor-assisted reduction and inverted insertion of elastic nail in the treatment of children's irreducible subradial 1/3 fractures. METHODS: A total of 34 children with irreducible subradial 1/3 fractures treated by surgery from August 2016 to December 2020 were retrospective analyzed. Among them, 16 cases underwent Kirschner wire retractor-assisted closed reduction and percutaneous elastic intramedullary nailing with inverted insertion(observation group), 10 males and 6 females, aged from 4 to 10 years old with an average of(6.0±0.4)years;18 cases underwent open reduction and plate internal fixation (control group), 11 males and 7 females, the age from 3 to 10 years with an average of(7.0±0.5) years. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, hospital stay, incision length, fracture healing time and complications of the two groups were observed and the wrist function was evaluated by Cooney wrist joint score. RESULTS: All patients were followed up for 3-12 years old with an average of (11.40±0.48) months in the observation group and 4-13 months with an average of (11.50±0.39) months in the control group. Bone healing was achieved in all patients, and there was no incision infection in both groups. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, hospital stay and incision length in observation groups were lower than those of control group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the fracture healing time between two groups(P>0.05). There was no significant difference in postoperative healing and recovery of wrist function between groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSION Compared with open reduction and plate internal fixation, Kirschner wire retractor-assisted reduction and percutaneous elastic intramedullary nail fixation for irreducible subradial radial 1/3 fractures has the advantages of less trauma, shorter operation time, less blood loss, and satisfactory short-term clinical results.

Thoracic outlet syndrome(TOS) are constellation of symptoms caused by compression of the neurovascular bundle including the brachial plexus, the subclavian artery and the subclavian vein at the thoracic outlet region. It includes neurogenic TOS, venus TOS, arterial TOS, and neurogenic TOS is the most common type. TOS has varied manifestations and lack of confirmatory testing, therefore, the diagnosis should be conbination with thorough history, physical examination and associated supplementary examinations. Conservative and surgical treatment can be choosed for TOS and the outcomes are generally good. Conservative management is the initial treatment strategy for neurogenic TOS. In cases of symptomatic vascular TOS and neurovascular TOS, which has been failed by conservative treatment, surgery should be considered more promptly.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the clinical and molecular biological characteristics of a neonate with myeloid proliferation related to Down syndrome (DS). METHODS: The neonate, who was suspected for Down syndrome, was analyzed in terms of clinical feature, peripheral blood cell morphology, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), immunological classification and other laboratory tests. On hundred and fourteen leukemia-related genes were subjected to next-generation sequencing (NGS). RESULTS: Laboratory test revealed obvious abnormal liver function and coagulation function, anemia, and extreme leukocytosis. Cell smear indicated significantly increased progenitor cells, which conformed to proliferation of megakaryocytes. FISH showed trisomy 21. By NGS, c.220+dupT, a novel mutation, was identified in exon 2 of the GATA1 gene, which encodes a N-terminal activation domain and has a frequency of 95.8%. No mutation was identified among the remaining 113 genes. CONCLUSION The neonate had DS and GATA1 gene mutation. High percentage of circulating blasts should be considered as transient myelodysplasia but not congenital leukemia.

OBJECTIVETo retrospectively study curative effects of three repair methods for rotator cuff tears under arthroscopy, and to explore relationships between different repair methods and cuff lesions.

METHODSFrom January 2009 to Jaunary 2014, a total of 353 patients with rotator cuff tears treated with surgical repair under arthroscopy were included in this study. All the patients were divided into three groups according to time of visitiny hospital and it was divided into three periods. The patients on the first period were treated with single row rivet fixation(115 cases), including 51 males and 64 females, with an average age of (57.46±9.08) years old. The patients on the second period were treated with double row rivet fixation(163 cases), including 76 males and 87 females, with an average age of (56.93±9.92) years old. The patients in the third period were treated with suture bridge fixation(75 cases), including 32 males and 43 females, with an average age of (55.90±9.15) years old. There were 29 patients with huge rotator cuff injuries, who were treated with single-row suture. The shoulders were protected by a brace for 6 weeks after operations were permit ted to perform passive movement within 6 weeks, and then perform active shoulder exercise 6 to 10 weeks after operation. Constant-Murley score, UCLA score and VAS score were recorded preoperatively and postoperatively.

RESULTSAll the patients were followed up, and the duration ranged from 12 to 62 months, with a mean of 30 months. There was no infection or nerve injury. UCLA score was improved from preoperative 10.71±2.45 to postoperative 32.07±3.16; Constant-Murley score was improved from preoperative 43.33±11.55 to postoperative 78.15±12.64; VAS score was improved from preoperative 5.81±1.27 to postoperative 0.52±0.71. There were no statistical differences among three groups in UCLA score, Constant-Murley score and VAS score. Total 337 cases were satisfied with treatment results and 16 cases were not satisfied with the results. Among the 16 cases, 3 cases had huge rotator cuff surgery, and 13 cases had no joint stiffness before operation. The main complaints that resulted in dissatisfaction were weakness of the postoperative muscles and failure to restore the labour capacity(11 cases).

CONCLUSIONSRotator cuff repair under arthroscopy has a reliable clinical effect for the patients with rotator cuff tears. Stable and reliable clinical results can be obtained regardless different repair methods or different rotator cuff tears. The following factors such as no stiffness before operation, too early active exercise and preoperative rotator cuff atrophy may be the risk factors for postoperative dissatisfaction of patients.

Objective To investigate the value of multislice spiral CT(MSCT,)in interventional therapy of the hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)emphasising on transcatheter hepanc arterial chemoembolization(TACE).Methods MSCT were performed in 60 cases of HCC before interventional procedure,CT findings of hepatic artery phase,portal venous phase and hepatic venous phase were observed respectively,among which CTA were done in 15 cases,and the anatomy of celiacartery and its branches were observed in 45 cases.The schemes of interventional therapy were worked out according to the findings of MSCT.Results MSCT showed 250 lesions,10 cases of tumor thrombosis in portal vein and 19 cases of hepatic arterioportal shunt.There was no significant difference between MSCT and digital subtraction angiography(DSA)in positive rate of in showing number of tumor or tumor thrombosis in portal vein(P＞0.05),but the 3D construction of celiac artery branches in CTA was better than that in DSA,while angles between celiac artery and abdominal aorta in MSCT were more convenient than that in DSA.MSCT showed 5 eases of hepatic artery original abnormality,according to that in DSA.Conclusion MSCT is of importance for guidance of interventional therapy of hepatocellular carcinoma.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the influence of total hip arthroplasty on the changes of spine pelvic parameters in patients with hip spine syndrome. METHODS: From January 2013 to October 2014, 22 patients (26 hips) with hip spine syndrome accompanied by necrosis of femoral head, hip osteoarthritis and congenital dysplasia of hip were treated with total hip arthroplasty. There were 12 males and 10 females with an average age of 58.4 years (range, 45 to 76 years). The course of disease was 1.5 to 25 years with an average of 12.8 years. Before and after the operation, the anteroposterior, full length radiographs of both lower limbs, thoracolumbar spine and pelvis in standing position were routinely taken. The balance parameters of spine pelvis coronal plane and sagittal plane before and after the replacement were measured. Visual analogue scale (VAS), Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) and Harris score were performed before and after the operation. RESULTS: All cases were followed up for 21 to 52 (32±8) months. No infection, prosthesis subsidence, loosening, prosthesis dislocation were found in the last follow up. After total hip arthroplasty, sagittal vertical axis(SVA), thoracic kyphosis(TK), lumbar lordosis(LL), pelvic tilt (PT) were significantly reduced( CONCLUSION After total hip arthroplasty, the coronal and historical balance parameters of spine and pelvis are significantly improved, and the short term and medium-term effects are satisfactory.
