The new approaches were designed to have anti-inflammatory analgetics act concentratively on the surrounding of pathological nerve roots or to inject collagenase directly to the protruding lumbar intervertebral disc for more simple and effective treatment of the low back pain. Method: The approaches to epidural lateral recess via incisura margo lateralis of lamina arcus vertebrae or margo medialis of joint processus artieularis were supposed and applied in clinic after study of anatomy and analysis of lumbar vertebra X-ray and CT photographes. The safety and feasibility of the approaches were evaluated according to the test of block region, measurement of therapeutic effect and monitoring of CT during the whole procedures in some cases. Result: A total of 170 cases via the incisura margo lateralis of lamina areus vertebrae were tested, 168 cases turned out to be successful and 2 cases failing. Another 15 cases via margo medialis of joint proeessus articularis, all punctures were successful. Conclusion: The approaches can lead to epidural lateral recess precisely to obtain a better treatment. When the technique is applied to discolysis, no X-ray machine will be needed and therefore no injury of X-ray occurs to both doctors and patients.

Objective To investigate the occurrence trend and risk factors of recurrent respiratory tract infection during the ifrst year after Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) in children. Methods The clinical data of 133 children complete-ly recoved from MPP and one year follow-up after MPP were included in this study, MPP IgM IgG double antibody titer were measured in different time slots (3 month, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months) after discharge. Information on frequency of recurrent respiratory tract infections, respiratory tract infection site, and drug use within one year were collected. Possible factors affecting the occurrence of recurrent respiratory tract infection were analyzed by means of single factor and multi factor analyses. Results In 133 patients, the recurrent rate was 31.58%in the ifrst year;aged 3-6 years old (OR=2.29,95%CI:1.13~4.64), or continuous positive or negative to positive antibodies (OR=4.47,95%CI:1.47~13.65), or low CD4/CD8 (OR=10.26,95%CI:3.30~31.90), or low IgA (OR=1.90,95%CI:1.06~3.40) is independent risk factor of recurrent respiratory tract after MPP;immune enhancer therapy is an independent protective factor (OR=0.29,95%CI:0.11~0.78). Conclusions Immune function disorders in the ifrst year after MPP were independent risk factors of recurrent respiratory tract infection. MP antibody positive without clinical symptoms and sustained antibody positive can not prevent the recurrence of respiratory tract infection without use of antibiotics. Immune enhancer was advocate to adjust immune function and reduce the incidence of repeated respiratory tract infection.

AIM:To observe the image features of Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease (VKH) and multiple central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) by fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) and optical coherence tomography (OCT).METHODS:Thirty-two eyes of 17 patients with VKH and thirty-five eyes of 30 patients with multiple CSC were collected from 2009 to 2016 in my hospital.RESULTS:All the eyes with VKH were found small and dense fluorescein leakage in the early stage.The 17 eyes (53%) with VKH were found fluorescein accumulation in the final stage;24 eyes (75%) with VKH were found high fluorescence of optic disc.All of eyes with multiple CSC were found multifocal leakage in the early stage.And 2 eyes (6%) with multiple CSC were found high fluorescence of optic disc.There were 28 eyes (14 patients) with VKH and 25 eyes (22 patients) with multiple CSC had been done OCT in my hospital.Retinal pigment epithelial fold was only found in VKH.Fluctuation of internal limiting membrane (ILM) and membrane structure had higher sensitivity to diagnostic VKH from to multiple CSC, with sensitivity of 54% and 68% respectively.CONCLUSION:There are some similarities as well as differences between FFA and OCT in diagnosis of VKH and multiple CSC.A combination usage of FFA and OCT can be more effective in distinguishing VKH from multiple CSC.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction(PCR) for Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) in children with MP pneumonia(MPP).Methods From Jun.2008 to Jan.2009,153 cases hospitalized with pneumonia were enrolled,and 30 cases without respiratory infection were enrolled as control group.Their respiratory secretion (including nasopharyngeal secretion,sputum,bronchialalveolar lavage fluid or pharyngeal swab) samples were collected for fluorescent quantitative PCR for MP.And their single or paired serums were collected for specific MP antibody detection.Results There were 123 cases confirmed with MPP by serology,among whom 114 cases were MP PCR positive.The quantitation of MP DNA was among 1.20?106-3.66?1010 gene copys/L. There were 30 cases with pneumonia negative with MP by the paired serum serology,among whom 2 cases were MP PCR positive,and the quantitation of MP DNA was (1.08-3.02)?107gene copys/L.All cases of control group were MP PCR negative.During the first and second weeks of the MPP onset,the sensitivity of MP-IgM from the first single blood samples were 66.7% and 83.9%,respectively.While the sensitivity and specificity of MP PCR were 92.7% and 93.3%,respectively.From the third week of the disease onset,the sensitivity of MP-IgM from the first single blood samples increased to 90.9%-100%.The clinical manifestations of MPP were nonspecific.Conclusions PCR is superior to serology for early diagnosis on MP infection.Combination of the 2 methods may be helpful to early and accurate diagnosis on MP infection.

Objective To explore the relationship between glycosylated hemoglobin and pulse wave velocity in non-diabetic elderly people.Methods Totally 163 subjects were included after exclusion of liver or kidney disfunction,diabetes mellitus or malignant tumor.They were divided into two groups:group A (HbA1c＜5.7％) (n＝54) and group B (HbA1c 5.7％-6.4％)(n＝109).The age,pulse wave velocity,systolic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure,blood chemistry and hypertension were compared between the two groups.Multi factor analyse was conducted to analyze the relative factors for pulse wave velocity.Results Systolic blood pressure was higher in group B than in group A (P ＜ 0.05).Multi-linear stepwise regression analyses suggested that age,hypertension,glycosylated hemoglobin were positively related to pulse wave velocity in non-diabetic elderly people (β values were 20.382,144.061,93.195,all P＜0.10).Conclusions Glycosylated hemoglobin is related to arterial stiffness in non-diabetic elderly people,it can be used as a predictive and control target of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease in old people.

Objective To observe the effect of clindamycin for preventive infection in arthroplasty prophylac-tic.Methods 108 knee replacement patients were injected by 600mg intravenous clindamycin preoperation and con-tinue to use 1 -2 days after operation.The average postoperative hospitalization,postoperative outcome,body tempera-ture and blood after WBC changes of CRP and ESR in the fall of superficial infection trend,the average postoperative day,take out stitches after operation and the number of cases,postoperative deep infection early after infection (2 weeks)and delayed infection cases (within one year)were observed in order to evaluate the efficacy of preopera-tive antibiotics.Results 2 cases had superficial infection due to wound dehiscence (two times after suture recover-y),there was no complications of surgical wound in the other cases.In all cases,after operation,body temperature and blood WBC became to the normal level in seventh days,postoperative patients'CRP,ESR monitoring were significantly higher than those before operation (CRP:F =105.32,P =0.045;ESR:F =118.47,P =0.039),but on the 5 day after operation they were started to decline,CRP in the 21 postoperative day gradually returned to normal,and ESR gradually returned to normal after 6 months of operation.Preoperative HSS score was significantly lower than the post-operative score[(46.8 ±9.7)points vs.(91.7 ±3.4)points,t =6.38,P <0.05].Conclusion Clindamycin plays a definite role in prevention of infection,especially in the beta lactam antibiotic allergy cases,it can be preoperative antibiotic prophylaxis instead of cephalosporins.

BACKGROUND:Lipoic acid, with a closed circle structure composed by sulphur and carbon atoms, exerts strong anti-oxidation, and has been extensively applied in the prevention and treatment of oxidative stress, diabetic cataract, diabetic neuropathy and cardiovascular diseases. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the protective effect of lipoic acid on peripheral nerve function during peripheral nerve ischemia/reperfusion injury. METHODS:Models of peripheral nerve ischemia/reperfusion injury were established in rabbits, and then rabbit models were then allotted to treatment and non-treatment groups. The treatment group was subdivided into experimental (injection of lippoic acid) and control groups according to the use of lipoic acid at 1, 3 and 6 hours after ischemia and before reperfusion. The ultrastructural changes of the sciatic nerve were observed under electron microscope, and the electrophysiological changes of the sciatic nerve were detected using evoked potential instrument. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:With the ischemic time increasing, the number of vacuoles in the axon increased gradually, accompanied by axonal atrophy, and Waller's degeneration in the aggregated microfilaments. The myelin sheath thickening and dissolving were visible. All above phenomena became severest at 6 hours after ischemia. Compared with the control groups, lipoic acid reduced the number of the vacuoles in the axon and all eviated axonal atrophy, Waller's degeneration and demyelination. As the ischemic time increasing, the latency of sciatic nerve was significantly increased, and peaked at 6 hours of ischemia;while the amplitude was significantly decreased, and reached a minimum at 6 hours of ischemia. Compared with the control groups, in the experimental groups, the latency of sciatic nerve was significantly decreased, but the amplitude was significantly increased. These results suggest that lipoic acid provides neuroprotection against peripheral nerve ischemia/reperfusion injury.
