Objective To explore the efficacy of cold packs combined with ice compress in treatment of pain after erbium fractional photothermal therapy on acne scars. Methods Eighty cases which were confirmed to the criteria were randomized into two groups:treatment group and control group. The treatment group (n=40) treated with cold packs combined with cold icy compress immediately after the surgery for 30~40 mins. The control group (n=40) was given icy compress therapy immediately after the surgery for 30~40 mins. The therapy continued for three days after the surgery on the two groups. The self-feeling symptom and pain relieving time were compared between the two groups. Result The time for pain relief in the wounds and the time for scabbing were both significantly shorter than those in the control group (P<0.01). Conclusion The cold packs combined with ice compress therapy can relieve the pains effectively and it can shorten the recovery time after fractional photothermal therapy.

Total hysterectomy is a treatment for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia Ⅲ (CINⅢ), and its recurrence rate is very small. In recent years, with the development of colposcopy and the increase of postoperative follow-up rate, the detection rate of vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia (VAIN) and vaginal cancer after CINⅢ hysterectomy has increased significantly. In recent years, a number of studies have found that persistent human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the most important factor leading to the recurrence of vaginal stump after CINⅢ level hysterectomy, so eliminating HPV infection can improve the patient's performance. The prognosis of persistent HPV infection is affected by many factors. The author reviewed the factors related to the clearance of HPV after CINⅢ hysterectomy. The purpose of this study is to provide a theoretical basis for improving the prognosis of patients and delaying the recurrence time after CINⅢ hysterectomy.

Objective:To explore the risk factors for lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in patients with a spinal cord injury (SCI).Methods:The medical records of 276 hospitalized SCI patients were analyzed retrospectively. They were divided into a DVT group ( n=63) and a no-DVT group ( n=213). Gender, age, blood type, smoking history, surgical history, the time from SCI to admission, cause of SCI, fracture, SCI segments, American Spinal Cord Injury Association grade and complications were compared between the two groups. Binomial logistic regression was used to isolate the risk factors for lower extremity DVT among such patients. Results:Among 84% of the 63 with a lower extremity DVT, it was a calf muscle venous thrombosis. Anemia, hyponatremia and time from SCI to admission (which ranged from 74 to 195 days) were the most serious DVT risk factors.Conclusions:SCI patients are of high risk for DVT, with anemia and hyponatremia being independent risk factors.

Objective:To explore the risk factors for urinary tract infection (UTI) after a spinal cord injury (SCI).Methods:The medical records of 403 SCI patients were analyzed retrospectively. They were divided into UTI group and no-UTI group according to whether they had a UTI at admission. Gender, age, cause of injury, injury level of the spinal cord, voluntary anal contraction, time from injury to admission, American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) grade, axillary temperature at admission, complications at admission (diabetes, hypertension, fracture of the pelvis, pressure sores or anemia), white blood cell count and urinary bacteria were compared between the two groups. Binary logistic regression was used to highlight the risk factors for a UTI after an SCI.Results:Of the 354 patients included in the final analysis, 62 (17.51%) had a UTI at admission. The regression showed that UTI after an SCI was closely related to an inability to voluntarily contract the anus, anemia, elevated white blood cell count and a high level of bacteria in the urine.Conclusions:Inability to contract the anus, fever, anemia and an elevated white blood cell count are independent indicators of a UTI after an SCI. A temperature ≥37.3°C is a simple indicator of a concentration of bacteria in the urine ≥1266/μL.
