Objective:To observe the therapeutic effects of acupuncture plus cupping therapy and Western medication alone for cervical radiculopathy. Methods: A total of 139 patients with cervical radiculopathy were randomly divided based on the random digital table into an acupuncture-cupping group (70 cases) and a Western medication group (69 cases). In the acupuncture-cupping group, Fengchi (GB 20) (bilateral), Dazhui (GV 14), Jianjing (GB 21) (bilateral) and Jiaji (EX-B 2) points of the neck [bilateral, midpoint between Fengchi (GB 20) and Dazhui (GV 14)] were punctured. After the arrival of the needling sensation, bilateral Fengchi (GB 20) and Jianjing (GB 21) were linked with electric stimulation and the rest acupoints were manipulated with the moderate needling technique. In the retaining of the needles, TDP lamp radiation was used. After acupuncture, the cupping therapy was applied to the local area. The treatment was given once every other day, 20 d for a course. After one course, the therapeutic effects were observed. The Western medication group was treated by oral administration of Meloxicam (Mobic), 7.5 mg, once a day, with water and liquid after meal. The therapeutic effects were observed after 20 d. Results:The total effective rate was 92.8% in the acupuncture-cupping group and 73.9% in the Western medication group, with a statistical difference between the two groups (P<0.05). After treatment, the scores of the clinical symptoms of the two groups were obviously declined (P<0.01), and the score of the clinical symptoms of the acupuncture-cupping group was better than that of the Western medication group, with a statistical difference (P<0.05). Conclusion:Acupuncture plus cupping therapy was more effective than administration of Meloxicam tablets alone in the treatment of cervical radiculopathy.

Objective To evaluate the choices and surgical skills for tension-free femoral hernia repair under local anesthesia. Methods The clinical data of 109 nonincarcerated femoral hernia patients were summarized from December 2002 to December 2009. Patients were divided into 3 groups according the time period at which the surgery was performed. 85 patients from 2002 to 2008 were divided into 2 groups,45 cases treated with preperitoneal repair ( preperitoneal group), and the other 40 cases with mesh-plug repair (plug group). The 24 cases admitted from January 2009 to December 2009 received modified preperitoneal repair. Operation time, VAS, length of hospitalization, incidence of recurrence, foreign body feelings and seroma were compared among the three groups. Results All the 109 patients were repaired under local anesthesia, and there was no perioperative death. The statistical indicator value of incidence of recurrence, foreign body sensation and seroma in preperitoneal group was lower than plug group (P ＜0.05). The modified preperitoneal repair was better in operation time, VAS, length of hospitalization than preperitoneal group (P ＜ 0.05). Conclusions Modified preperitoneal repair under local anesthesia is the choice for treating femoral hernia without incarceration. Modified preperitoneal repair is faster, more minimally invasive and faster recovery.

Objective To analyze the diversity of intestinal microecology in different healthy age groups and explore the relationship between age and the composition of intestinal microflora.MethodsFecal samples were collected from the children,adult and elderly groups.The main intestinal microflora were cultured and quantified,and the qualitative and quantitative changes in the level of category were determined by fluorescence quantitative PCR.The Bifidobacteria/Enterobacteriaceae (B/E) ratio reflexing intestinal colonization resistance was also calculated.Results The germiculture of fecal samples indicated that the counts of Bifidobacteria and Lactobacillus (P＜0.01 and P＜0.05,respectively) were significantly lower in the adult and aged groups than in children group.The number of Bacteriodes and Enterobacteriaceae in the elderly group were higher than in the children and the adult groups (all P＜0.01).The counts of Enterococcus were increased in the adult and the aged groups (P＜0.05 and P＜0.01) compared with the children group,and were higher in the aged group than in the adult group (P＜0.05).The B/E ratio was significantly decreased in the aged group (0.88-±-0.13) as compared with the children (1.15±0.15) and the adult groups ( 1.01± 0.20) ( both P ＜ 0.01).The diversities of Bifidobacteria,Bacteriodes,Enterobacteriaceae and B/E ratio by fluorescent quantification PCR were consistent with the results by germiculture technology.The diversity of Lactobacillus (P＜0.01) between the children and the aged groups as well as between the children group and the adult group significantly improved (P＜0.01 and P＜0.05 ) in PCR compared with the germiculture technology. ConclusionsThe numbers of intestinal Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are decreased with lower colonization resistance,while the numbers of Bacteriodes,Enterobacteriaceae and Enterococcus are increased with aging.

Objective To investigate the features and diagnostic value of MRI in prenatal and postpartum for placenta accreta. Methods 18 cases of placenta accreta confirmed by surgical pathologically and clinical were retrospectively analyzed,including 10 ca-ses of prenatal and postpartum 8 cases,observed the signal feature and diagnostic value of MRI images.Results In the 10 cases of prenatal patients with placenta accreta,MRI manifestations of 9 cases of placenta prevail,totally or partly covering cervical,10 cases of partial placenta and uterine muscle gap disappeared,boundaries are not clear,2 cases of uterine wall bars low signal-image inter-rupted,bulging outward placenta,increased sub placental vascular wag detected in 8 patients;8 cases of postpartum patients with pla-centa accrete,MRI show 4 examples which were mixed signals within the uterine cavity,with the junctional zone boundaries were not clear,the junctional zone was discontinuous interruption in 7 cases,8 cases of muscular layer appear oval,high and low,patchy mixed signals in shadow,4 cases in the palace district,5 cases of invading the shallow layer,3 cases of infection and deep muscle layers. Conclusion MRI technique is of great value for diagnosis of placenta accreta.

Objective:To explore risk factors for positive surgical margin (PSM) after laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP) in high risk prostate cancer (PCa) patients with and without neoadjuvant hormornal therapy (NHT).Methods:The clinicopathological data of 202 high risk patients who underwent LRP from January 2012 to July 2020 was retrospectively analyzed. There were 111 cases performed in Beijing Chaoyang Hospital and 91 cases in National Cancer Center. Mean age was(67.7±6.5)years, mean BMI was (25.65±3.21)kg/m 2. Median highest preoperative PSA was 20.97(11.00, 34.40)ng/ml, median preoperative prostate volume was 32.88(23.33, 46.20)ml. Among all 202 high risk PCa patients, 97 did not receive NHT(non-NHT group) and 105 received NHT(NHT group). There were significant statistical difference in term of highest PSA, preoperative prostate volume between NHT and non-NHT groups ( P<0.05), while there was no significant difference in term of age or BMI between the two groups. Among NHT patients, 80 cases accepted complete androgen blockade therapy with median course of 3 months; 3 cases accepted simple castration therapy with median course of 3 months; 22 cases accepted simple anti-androgen therapy with median course of 1 month. Risk factors for PSM after LRP in NHT and non-NHT groups were respectively explored, including age, BMI, hypertension, diabetes, history of pelvic surgery, highest PSA before puncture, ISUP before puncture, preoperative prostate volume, ISUP after LRP, postoperative pathological stage T, pathological lymph node involvement, vessel carcinoma embolus, etc. Results:PSM rate was 50.5%(49/97) and 24.8% (26/105) in non-NHT and NHT, respectively. The apex was the most common location of PSM in non-NHT group(35.1%, 34/97), while the fundus was the most common location of PSM in NHT group(14.3%, 15/105). Multiple logistic regression revealed that postoperative pathological stage T was the only independent factors affecting the PSM for high risk patients without NHT ( OR=3.814, 95% CI 1.302-11.173, P=0.015), while postoperative pathological stage T, pathological lymph node involvement, and vessel carcinoma embolus were independent risk factors affecting PSM for high risk patients with NHT ( OR=18.434, 95% CI 4.976-68.297, P<0.001; OR=7.181, 95% CI 2.089-24.689, P =0.002; OR=3.545, 95% CI 1.109-11.327, P=0.033). Conclusions:Postoperative pathological stage T was independent risk factors affecting PSM for all high risk PCa patients no matter with or without NHT, while pathological lymph node involvement, and vessel carcinoma embolus were also independent risk factors affecting PSM for high risk PCa patients with NHT.

Objective: To summarize and critically assess the evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of acupuncture in treating dry eye syndrome (DES) according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement and the Cochrane Collaboration recommendations. Methods: A search of PubMed, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, ClinicalTrials.gov and Embase was made from their inception to August 2016, as well as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean databases. Two reviewers independently selected RCTs and assessed the methodological quality. Meta-analysis and the level of evidence were processed by RevMan 5.3 and the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. Results: After selection, 8 trials were subjected to our systematic review. The methodological quality was low generally. The 3-10 weeks follow-up showed that acupuncture improved the tear film break-up time (BUT) (MD=1.33, 95%CI=1.01-1.66, 619 participants). The mean difference of Schirmer's test was 1.73 mm (95%CI=1.28-2.18, 618 participants) between the acupuncture group and the control group. The subjective variables exhibited no significant differences. Conclusion: The low methodological quality of the trials does not suggest drawing firm conclusions on the value of acupuncture therapy for DES. Acupuncture treatment may have some effects on the tear film BUT and Schirmer's test, but not on the subjective symptoms. Well-planned large-scale high-quality RCTs are needed to make it clear whether acupuncture is effective in treating DES.

Objective:To observe the therapeutic effect of warm needling moxibustion for erectile dysfunction (ED).
Methods:A total of 46 eligible ED patients were randomized into a treatment group (n=24) and a control group (n=22). The treatment group was intervened by warm needling moxibustion while the control group by conventional acupuncture treatment, for a total of 4 courses. The therapeutic effect was evaluated by the international index of erectile function 5 (IIEF-5).
Results:After 4 courses of treatment, the overall effective rate was 91.3% in the treatment group (23 completed), versus 75.0% in the control group (20 completed), with a significant difference (P<0.05). After the treatment, the change of IIEF-5 score in the treatment group was significantly different from that in the control group (P<0.05).
Conclusion:Warm needling moxibustion can produce a more significant efficacy than conventional acupuncture in the treatment of ED.
