Objective To determine the value of helical computed tomography (HCT) and color doppler flowing imaging (CDPI) in evaluating the resectability of pancreatic cancer. Methods The clinical data of 114 patients with pancreatic cancer who had been admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College from January 1995 to December 2002 were retrospectively analyzed. The values of HCT and CDPI in assessing the resectability of pancreatic cancer were determined according to the results of operation and pathological examina-tion. All the data were analyzed by chi-square test and Fisher exact probability. Results Of all patients, 109 were examined by HCT, 97 by CDPI and 96 by HCT+CDPI. For patients examined by HCT, the resection rates of pancreatic head cancer, pancreatic body and tail cancer and total pancreatic cancer were 45.3% (39/86), 26.3% (5/19) and 0 (0/9), respectively. The resection rate of pancreatic head cancer was higher than that of pancreatic body and tail cancer (χ2=8.965, P<0.05). With the increase of tumor size, the invasion rate and metastasis rate were increased and the resection rate was decreased (z=6.15, 5.35, 7.18, P<0.01). The sensitivity rate and specificity rate were 77.8% and 82.2% of HCT, 73.3% and 80.6% of CDPI, 90.6% and 92.4% of HCT+CDPI in assessing the resectability of pancreatic cancer. The values of Kappa identity test of HCT, CDPI and HCT+CDPI were 0.58, 0.52 and 0.82, respectively. Conclusions Combined application of HCT and CDPI can further improve the accuracy in assessing the resectability of pancreatic cancer.

Background and purpose: Because of the aggressive nature of hilar cholangiocarcinoma and the absence of effective adjuvant therapy, surgical radical resection offers hilar cholangiocarcinoma patients the only choice. Research focus include preoperative assessment, the use of preoperative biliary drainage, the range of hepatic resection, and the range of lymphadenectomy. To investigate the clinical experience and efifcacy of combined hepatectomy in the treatment of hilar cholangiocarcinoma. Methods: Two hundred and seven patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma treated surgically in the First Afifliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University form Jan. 2007 to Oct. 2013 were retrospectively analyzed. Results:Of the 207 patients, 125 patients who received radical resection (R0 resection) and the curative resection rate was 60.4%. One hundred and iffty-six cases were treated in combined hepatectomy group, 51 cases in non-hepatectomy group, the rate of R0 resection was 70.5%in hepatectomy group and 29.4%in non-hepatectomy group, and the difference was signiifcant (P<0.01). Two patients died perioperatively, the main postoperative complications included hepatic function insufifciency and bile leakage. One hundred and seventy-two patients were followed up, the median survival time of the 102 patients who received R0 resection was 45 months, and the 1, 3, 5 year survival rates were 96.1%, 59.1%and 17.2%. The median survival time of the 70 patients who received R1-2 resection was 26 months, and the 1, 3 year survival rates were 81.3%and 19.2%, and none of the patient survived for over 5 years. The survival rate of patients who received R0 resection was signiifcantly higher than those who received R1-2 resection (χ2=39.121, P<0.01). In the hepatectomy group was awarded the R0 resection in patients with postoperative 1, 3, 5 year survival rate was 97.8%, 63.9% and 18.0%, in non-hepatectomy group received R0 resection in patients with postoperative 1, 3, 5 year survival rate was 83.3%, 20.8%and 8.3%. There were signiifcant differences in the postoperative survival rate between both group (χ2=5.988, P=0.014). Conclusion:Radical excision is the key to improve the long term survival. Combined hemihepatectomy and standardized lymph node resection has signiifcantly improved the radical resection rate and the efifcacy of treatment for hilar cholangiocarcinoma.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects of recombinant human endostatin (RHES) combined with radiotherapy on brain metastases (BM) of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and the patients suitable for this therapy.Methods Eighty patients with BM of NSCLC were randomly divided into RHES combined with radiotherapy group (combination group) and radiotherapy alone group (each group with 40 patients).The short-term effective rate,overall survival time,cerebral edema index and adverse reactions were observed and the expressions of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) protein in primary lesions were detected with immunohistochemical method in all patients.Results Compared with radiotherapy alone group,brain edema was significantly relieved (t=4.9,P=0.000) and there were no marked adverse reactions in combination group.In short-term effective rate,there was no statistical significance in total population (n=80,90％ vs.75％,x2=3.11,P=0.07),but there was statistical significance in the patients with positive VEGFR2 (93％ vs.67.7％,x2=6.31,P=0.012).In overall survival time,there was no statistical significance in total population (n=80,P=0.35,95％ CI:0.25-1.30) or in the patients with positive VEGFR2 (P=0.109,95％ CI:0.40-1.34).Conclusion Compared with radiotherapy alone,RHES combined with radiotherapy can relieve brain edema in the patients with BM of NSCLC and obtain better short-term effective rate in the patients with positive VEGFR2.

Objective To investigate the clinical features of multiple ligament injuries of the knee joint, and evaluate the clinical efficacy of one-stage repair and reconstruction under an arthroscope of multiple ligament injured knee joint. Methods The clinical data were analyzed retrospectively of 22 patients receiving treatment and follow-up for multiple ligament injuries of the knee joint from March 2015 to June 2017 in the Henan Orthopedic Hospital. 13 males and 9 females aged from 24 to 64 years; and left knee injury occurred in 7 cases, right knee in 5 cases, all injuries were close with knee subluxation or dislocation. Imaging, clinical and arthroscopical examination showed anterior and posterior cruciate ligament ruptures in all the patients. The time from injury to operation was from 4 to 16 days, all the patients were treated by single tunnel and single beam reconstruction of anterior and posterior cruciate ligament under an arthroscope, limited incision and reconstruction of PMC (posterior medial complex) and PLC (posterior lateral complex); and the concurrent injuries were treated at that same time. Postoperative X-Ray and MRI were performed to determine the healing of bone tunnel, internal fixation, remodeling of reconstructed tendon and tendon healing. The knee function was assessed on the basis of the range-of-motion of the knee, IKDC score and Lysholm Knee Function score. Results All the patients were followed up from 6 to 14 months with an average of (11.0±1.5) months. The torn inner and outer meniscus and fracture were all healed and the deep venous thrombus was dissolved. Last follow up found varus and valgus stress test was normal or close to normal in 22 patients by Lachman test, anterior and posterior drawer tests were negative, and the tibial shift distance forward or backward was smaller than 5mm. The patients had no subjective symptoms. X-Ray and MRI showed that the tibial femoral tunnel had healed, and the position of internal fixation had no change, and the ligament had been reconstructed and the tendon had healed. In 2 cases, one year later, sensory and motor recovery was observed after common peroneal nerve injury. Range of motion of the knee joint, and Lysholm and IKDC scores were significantly superior at the last following up to at the preoperation (P<0.01); and IKDC comprehensive assessment revealed a normal result (A) in 4 cases, close to normal (B) in 16, abnormal (C) in 2, whereas they are significantly abnormal (D) at admission. Conclusion One-stage arthroscopical repair and reconstruction for multiple ligament injuries of the knee can obviously stabilize the knee joint, improve the knee joint function early, prevent postoperative complications, shorten the hospitalization time, reduce the cost, improve the quality of life, and have the advantages of safety, reliability and less trauma, and the clinical efficacy is satisfactory.

Exercise-induced fatigue is a comprehensive response to a variety of physiological and biochemical changes in the body, and can affect people’s quality of life to different extents. If no timely recovery after occurrence of fatigue, accumulated gradually, it can lead to “burnout”, a “overtraining syndrome”, “chronic fatigue syndrome”, etc., which will cause endocrine disturbance, immune suppression, even physical illness. Exercise-induced fatigue becomes an important factor endangering human health. In recent years, many experts and scholars at home and abroad are committed to the research of exercise-induced fatigue, and have put forward a variety of hypothesis to explain the cause of exercise-induced fatigue. They expect to find out the methods for preventing and eliminating exercise-induced fatigue. This article discusses mainly the pathogenesis, model building, elimination/ relief, etc. of exercise-induced fatigue to point out the research achievements of exercise-induced fatigue and its existing problems.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of bone cement injectable pedicle screw system combined with intervertebral fusion for lumbar spondylolysis and osteoporosis. Methods The clinical data were analyzed retrospectively of 21 patients with lumbar spondylolysis and osteoporosis who received treatment of bone cement injectable pedicle screw system and interv ertebral fusion from Aug. 2013 to Nov. 2015. The 21 patients (9 males and 12 females) aged from 60 to 80 years (mean 64 years old); 6 of them presented degenerative spondylolysis, 15 with isthmic spondylolisthesis; 2 cases had I degree slippage, 13 had II degree slippage, 6 had III degree slippage, and all the cases were unisegmental slippage including 9 cases in L4 and 12 cases in L5. Bone mineral density of lumbar vertebrae (L2-L5) was measured with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, and T values conforming to the diagnostic criteria of osteoporosis were less than or equal to -2.5; All patients were operated with whole lamina resection for decompression, bone cement injectable pedicle screws system implantation, propped open reduction and fixation intervertebral fusion. The clinical outcomes were determined by the radiographic evaluation including intervertebral height, height of intervertebral foramen, slip distance, slip rate and slip angle, and Oswestry disability index (ODI) on preoperative, 3 months after operation and the end of the time, and the interbody fusion were followed up. Results Cerebrospinal fluid leakage of incision was observed in two cases after operation, compression and dressing to incision, Trendelenburg position, dehydration and other treatments were taken, and the stitches of incisions were taken out on schedule. Slips in the 21 patients were reset to different extent, and lumbar physiological curvatures were recovered. The intervertebral height and height of intervertebral foramen were obviously higher 3 months after operation than that before operation (P<0.05), and the slip distance, slip rate, slip angle and ODI scores were markedly shorter or smaller 3 months after operation than that before operation (P<0.05). Follow-up was done for 16-26 months (average of 20.5 months). All the judgment indexes mentioned above were statistically different in the last following up than that before operation (P<0.05), but no significant difference compared to that of 3 months after operation (P>0.05). Based on the ODI score, the excellent/fine rate was 90.6% and 92.5% for 3 months after operation and the last follow-up, respectively. During the period of following up, no loss of the correction degrees, no loosening of the screws, and 19 cases were noted bony fusion with the fusion success rate of 90.5%. Conclusion The treatment effect of bone cement injectable pedicle screw system and intervertebral fusion for lumbar spondylolysis and osteoporosis is satisfied.

Objective To observe the treatment effect of internal fixation with absorbable suture anchors for calcaneal apophysitis (Sever's disease). Methods The clinical data of 34 Sever's disease patients having received internal fixation with absorbable suture anchors from January 2010 to August 2012 were analyzed retrospectively. Of the 34 patients, 28 were male and 6 were female, aged from 11 to 30 years old (mean 19 years old); 20 with unilateral lesions, 14 with bilateral lesions; 32 suffered inflammatory edema, and 2 with epiphyseal avulsion. All of the patients were diagnosed as suffering from Sever's disease by X-ray combined with clinical symptoms. The sclerotic bone was chiseled off, the attachment site of Achilles tendon was fixed with auxiliary sutures of anchors and then fixed to the bone surface. Different rehabilitation programs were adapted in different periods after operation. The operation time, the site of anchorage and perioperative complications were analyzed, and the therapeutic effects were evaluated by Arner-Lindholm standard. Results All patients were followed up for 2-24 months (mean 9 months). The average operation time for one side was 40.5 minutes. No iatrogenic injury to nerve, vascular or tendon occurred during surgical procedure. No wound infection or foreign-body reaction was found after operation. The therapeutic effects evaluated by Arner-Lindholm standard were excellent in 29 cases, good in 4 and bad in 1 case. Conclusion Absorbable suture anchoring fixation is a reasonable and effective method for the treatment of Sever's disease, and it allows early exercise training for recovery of ankle function. The postoperative functional recovery is found to be satisfactory.
