Objective To retrospectively review the mortality and morbidity after orthopedic surgery for aged patients with reference to orthopedic version physiological and operative severity score for the enumeration of mortality and morbidity (O-POSSUM) and Portsmouth POSSUM (P-POSSUM) and validate the score' s accuracy in operative risk prediction.Methods O-POSSUM and P-POSSUM for mortality and morbidity were applied to 839 aged patients who had undergone orthopedic surgery between January 2008 and December 2011.Observed mortality and morbidity were compared with the expected values.Results O-POSSUM predicted 230 morbidities,but the observed value was 182 (x2 =2.718,P ＞ 0.05).O-POSSUM predicted 46 deaths,higher than the observed 3 deaths (x2 =38.870,P＜0.01).P-POSSUM predicted 16 deaths,higher than the observed 3 deaths (x2 =8.997,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions O-POSSUM accurately predicts postoperative morbidity in aged orthopedic patients.However,O-POSSUM and P-POSSUM overpredicts the mortality and should be used with caution.

Objective To investigate the correlation between retinal shape and thickness in the macular region by comparing with the axial length(AL).Methods A total of 101 volunteers(101 eyes)were included and divided into three groups based on AL:no(AL≤24 mm,27 eyes),mild(AL>24-26 mm,42 eyes),and high(AL>26 mm,32 eyes)axial myopia groups.The retinal thickness parameters and posterior pole images were obtained by optical coherence tomography.The retinal thickness of the fovea and superior,inferior,nasal,and temporal sides of the perifovea were compared among the three groups.The least square method was applied to fit the ellipse that best matched the shape of the posterior pole retina,and the correlation between its eccentricity(e)and retinal thickness was evaluated.Results There were no significant differences in retinal thickness in the five areas among the three groups(all P>0.05).For the fovea,retinal thickness showed no significant correlation with AL ande(both P>0.05).For the perifovea,the thickness of the superior,inferior,and nasal areas negatively correlated with the AL(all P<0.05),and the thickness of the superior,inferior,nasal,and temporal area negatively correlated withe(all P<0.05).On perifoveal retinal thickness,ehad a greater impact than AL.Conclusion The foveal retinal thickness is not related,while the perifoveal retinal thickness thinning is closely associated with the steep retinal shape.

Objective To investigate the influences of grape seed proanthocyanidin extract (GSPE) on cardiovascular system, nervous system and respiratory system of experimental animals, and provide general pharmacological data for further research and application. Methods The influences of GSPE on blood pressure, heart rate, electrocardiogram, breathing frequency and tidal volume in anesthetic dogs after duodenal administration were observed, the impacts on spontaneous activity, coordinated motion, and the sleep situation with threshold dose and subthreshold dose of pentobarbital sodium in mice after intragastric administration were observed. Results GSPE showed no side effects on blood pressure, heart rate, electrocardiogram, breathing frequency and tidal volume in anesthetic dogs at the dosage of 857.00, 214.29, 42.86 mg/kg (P>0.05). At the dosage of 428.57, 214.29, 42.86 mg/kg, GSPE had no obvious influence on spontaneous activities and coordinated movements in mice (P>0.05). GSPE did not evidently change the number of sleeping animals, the sleep latency and the sleeping duration with subthreshold dose and threshold dose of pentobarbital sodium (P>0.05). Conclusion GSPE has no evident adverse effects on central nervous system, cardiovascular system and respiratory system in animals.

OBJECTIVE To observe therapeutic efficacy and safety of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) com-bined with high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) in the treatment of middle and advanced primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). METHODS:76 patients with middle and advanced primary HCC were randomly divided into treatment group(36 cases) and control group(40 cases). Control group was given TACE alone,and treatment group was additionally given HIFU 2-3 weeks after TACE. Clinical efficacy,the content of alpha-fetoprotein(AFP)before and after operation,survival rate,survival period and ADR were compared between 2 groups. RESULTS:The efficiency rate and total effective rate of treatment group were 61.1% and 94.4%,which were significantly higher than those of control group(35.0%,77.5%),with statistical significance(P<0.05). The content of AFP in 2 groups decreased significantly after operation,with statistical significance(P<0.05);there also was statistical significance between 2 groups(P<0.05). Survival rate of treatment group was higher than that of control group 24 and 36 months after operation,with statistical significance (P<0.05). The median survival time was 11.3 months in treatment group and 9.2 month in control group,with no statistical difference(P>0.05). No obvious ADR was found in 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS:Com-pared with TACE alone,TACE combined with HIFU in the treatment of middle and advanced primary HCC can improve long-term survival rate and the short-term efficacy,with good safety.

Objective:The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic value of vitamin B12 as the non-invasive biomarker to predict long-term rebleeding rate in cirrhotic patients with esophagogastric varices.Methods:From Dec 1, 2016 to Dec 31, 2017, cirrhotic patients with esophagogastric varices who had been admitted to Zhongshan Hospital affiliated to Fudan University were enrolled. All these patients received endoscopic treatment to prevent variceal rebleeding. The serum vitamin B12 and folic acid levels were measured in all of them. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis, Kaplan-Meier analysis, univariate and multivariate cox regression analysis were conducted to explore the value of vitamin B12 in predicting 3-year variceal rebleeding in cirrhotic patients with esophagogastric varices after endoscopic treatment.Results:115 patients were included. The ROC curve analysis indicated that the optimal cutoff value of vitamin B12 for 3-year variceal rebleeding was 567.25 pg/ml. According to the cut-off value, the patients were divided into high-level vitamin B12 group ( n=49) and low-level vitamin B12 group ( n=66). Compared with the low vitamin B12 group, the high vitamin B12 group had lower albumin level, less male (63.3% vs 80.3%), and higher 3-year rebleeding rate ( P<0.05). Cox analysis showed that vitamin B12 and platelet were independent prognostic factors for 3-year rebleeding in patients with variceal bleeding. Conclusions:Elevated peripheral blood vitamin B12 predicts a higher risk of long-term rebleeding in patients with liver cirrhosis and esophagogastric varices.
