Objective To study the role of local immunity in the female genital tract with non- gonococcal urethritis(NGU).Methods Forty-four cervical secretions from patients with NGU were collected.After treatment with Azithromycin,22 cases were followed up.One month later,pathogen was eliminated in 15 patients.Another 27 un-infected people were included in our study.The level of secretory immunoglobulin A(SIgA)was detected using the automatic special protein analysor,and interferon-?(IFN-?)was quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).All data were analyzed with ANOVA.Results The levels of SIgA and IFN-?in NGU infected group were(34.29?15.92)mg/L and(97.13?24.00)ng/L respectively,while those of uninfected group were(47.57?19.61)mg/L and(120.71?33.78)ng/L,respectively(all P0.05).Conclusions SIgA and IFN-?secreted by genital tract mucosa may help pre- vent and resist the local NGU infection.However,the effect is limited,and is insufficient to eliminate infection completely and prevent reinfection.

Objective To analyze the efficacy and safety of same-session bilateral and staged unilateral flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy ( FURL) with holmium laser for the treatment of upper urinary system stones . Methods Clinical data of 29 patients who underwent same-session bilateral FURL ( same-session group ) and 20 patients who received staged unilateral FURL ( staged group ) from September 2012 to May 2015 at this hospital were analyzed retrospectively .The overall operation time ,overall hospital stay , stone free rate (SFR) and overall complication rate were compared between the two groups . Results The operations were successfully completed in both groups.The overall operative time was significantly longer for staged unilateral FURL than bilateral FURL [(71.0 ± 19.0) min vs.(112.6 ±26.8) min, t=-6.366, P=0.000].The overall hospital stay was slightly longer for staged unilateral FURL than bilateral FURL [(6.9 ±3.6) d vs.(8.4 ±2.1 ) d, t=-1.674, P=0.101].The four-week postoperative SFR for bilateral FURL and staged unilateral FURL were 79.3%(23/29) and 80.0%(16/20), respectively (χ2 =0.000, P=1.000).The overall complication rate was slightly higher for bilateral FURL [20.7% (6/29) vs.15.0% (3/20), χ2 =0.017, P=0.896]. Conclusion Same-session bilateral flexible ureteroscopic holmium laser lithotripsy is a safe and effective treatment for bilateral upper urinary system stones in select patients .

The anatomically and functionally complex nature of the temporomandibularjoint (TMJ) makes its reconstruction one of the most challenging tasks faced by surgeons who operate in the head and neck. TMJ prosthesis is one of the important techniques in the reconstruction of TMJ. The main indications for TMJ prosthesis include ankylosis, fractures of condylar that can't be fixed, trauma or tumor, end-stage TMJ disturbance, and TMJ dysplasia caused by Hallermann-Streiff syndrome. TMJ replacement aims to enhance the function of TMJ, alleviate pain, and prevent serious complications. TMJ prosthesis is advantageous in oral and maxillofacial surgery because it can imitate normal anatomic morphology and adhere to the host. Moreover, the use of other materials is no longer necessary and functional training can be started postoperatively at once, among others. Prosthetic materials have leading and promoting functions in the development of joint prosthesis. Good design, fit shape, and fixation are the necessary conditions for prosthesis to serve its function. Investigation of joint biomechanics is also necessary. With the rapid developments in material science, joint biomechanics, and other related subjects, TMJ prosthesis has been significantly improved in terms of its materials, design, fit shape, and fixation techniques. In addition, the development of TMJ prosthesis would expand its applications. This review intends to provide an overview about the progress and clinical application of TMJ prosthesis.

Objective To explone the therapeutic effect and mechanism of Quyuhuatan decoction in treating type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with abnormal metabolism of lipid. Methods 85 cases of type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with abnormal metabolism of lipid were recruited into a control group and a treatment group randomly. The treatment group (45cases) was treated with Quyuhuatan decoction and subcutaneous insulin injection while the control group(40cases) was treated with subcutaneous insulin injection exclusively. Both groups received the treatment for for 8 weeks. The result of TC, TG, LDL-C, and HDT-C were observed before and after the treatment. Results The improvement of blood lipid in the treatment group was superior to that in the control group (t=0.011, P<0.05) . Conclusion Quyuhuatan decoction is effective in treating type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with abnormal metabolism of lipid. The mechanism might be related with its cutting off pathological paths of hyperlipidemia.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of recombinant human granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (rhGM-CSF) combined with traditional medicine retention enema for treatment of chronic radiation proctitis.Methods:A total of 128 patients pathologically diagnosed as cervical cancer and endometrial cancer with grade 1-2 chronic radiation proctitis at Xiangyang Central Hospital from October 2017 to October 2019 were enrolled in a random, single-blind, control trial. The patients were divided into the control group and the experiment group according to the random number table, and the control group was given the treatment regimen of gentamicin + dexamethasone + Yunnan Baiyao retention enema, and the experimental group was given the treatment regimen of rhGM-CSF + gentamicin + dexamethasone + Yunnan Baiyao retention enema; both regimens treated twice daily for three weeks. The clinical symptom before and after enema treatment based on the subjective, objective, management and analytic (SOMA) scale was scored and the efficacy was evaluated by combining with stool routine and rectoscopy.Results:According to the SOMA scale, the scores of hematochezia, diarrhea, tenesmus, abdominal pain after enema were lower than those before enema, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05); however, the scores of all symptoms before treatment of both groups were not statistically significant different (all P>0.05). The score of hematochezia in the experimental group after enema was lower than that in the control group [(0.33±0.15) scores vs. (0.48±0.32) scores, t=2.045, P=0.022], and the scores of other symptoms in both groups were not statistically significant different (all P>0.05). The overall effective rate was 79.69% (51/64) in the control group and 90.63% (58/64) in the experimental group, and difference was statistically significant (χ 2=6.485, P=0.026). All patients had no obvious adverse reactions. Conclusions:rhGM-CSF combined with traditional medicine retention enema for treatment of chronic radiation proctitis in patients with cervical cancer and endometrial cancer is highly effective and easy to operate, and patients are well tolerated, which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristic of vernier acuity in age-related macular degeneration (AMD) patients. Methods The vernier acuity test soft wear system was developed to detect the 23 cases (39 eyes) of AMD patients. Tweenty-one eyes were atrophic type and 17 eyes were exudative type. Two fixed targets and a movable target are shown on the computer screen. The examinee was asked to adjust the position of the central target and the relationship between it and align them by using a track ball. The computer automatically recorded the deviations of distances between the movable target and the specific one, and then computed and analysed the results of average threshold and variance. Results Both the atrophic and exudative AMD had higher vernier acuity threshold and its variance than normal subjects, and the differences were significant (P

Objective　To discuss the clinical value of 18　F-FDG PET imaging in postoperative and postradiotherapeutic intracranial glioma during follow up study. Methods　18F-FDG PET imaging in 16 cases of postoperative and postradiotherapeutic intracranial glioma was compared with CT and/or MRI. Results　Contrast CT or MRI showed prominent irregular circular or nodular enhancement in 14 of 16 cases (64%),can not distinguished from postopertative changes, radioinjury, tumor residue or recurrence.Among them, 9 cases showed tumor residue or recurrence based on significantly increased FDG uptake, 5 were confirmed by pathologic study. The other 5 cases of cerebral necrosis and 2 cases with postoperative cerebral malacia demonstrated FDG uptake defects. Conclusions　18F-FDG PET imaging has significant dominance in characterizing lesions for differentiating residue or recurrent disease from radioinjury in intracranial glioma. Combined with CT and MRI can provide both anatomical and functional informations.

To identify the key elements and available tools of regional health information resources plamling,the study introduced an innovative I-beam map,aiming to solve the two key questions of what and how to plan The paper covered such issues of planning as what is the present situation of regional health information,how to divide functional categories of regional health information resources,what are included in the business subclasses,which core data are used in the business process,which data to share and exchange,how to regulate such data,how to manage the regulations and make continuous improvement,and how to evolve towards planning standardization discriminatively.The study also drew a midfield line with such seven fields as medical service,maternity and child care,disease control and Drevention,health administration,emergency management,blood management and primary healtheare.This midfield line is used,along with stakeholders,planning process,information flow and planning output make the four quadrants,describing the whole process in the I-beam form.This practice can provide the methodology ofhow to plan,in the hope of guiding regional health information resource planning from theory to practice.

Regional health planning is a leading and scientific management philosophy for healthcare development in the international community.Information resources planning paves the way for scientific development.In the ongoing health reform in China,planning of regional health resources will play a key role by leveraging information technology.From the viewpoints of health information resources and information resources planning,the paper defines the concept of regional health information resources planning in microcosmic perspective.It summarized the five features of public welfare,specificity,imbalance,small channel and low noise,and non-symmetry.Authors compared the five planning modes,namely the community medical information resources mode,the general hospitals as the center of information resource mode,the regional PACS mode,the regional health data resource mode,and the regional medical coordination resources mode.In the paper,the planning is rounded up as four key points,that is,the basic steps of situation assessment and analysis,routine work of health information standardization,the planning should both comply with general rules of information resource planning and characteristics of the health sector,in addition to guidelines of forward-looking concepts.
