Perioperative nutrition support may be required when the synthesis and utilization of nutrients become disordered due to gastrointestinal abnormalities and trauma anesthesia. Proper nutrition support can reduce or prevent malnutrition, and thus facilitate the recovery and lower complications and case-fatality rate.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of intradermal needle therapy in treating chronic pharyngitis.Method Sixty patients with chronic pharyngitis were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 30 cases in each group. The treatment group was intervened by intradermal needle therapy at Lieque (LU 7) and Zhaohai (KI 6), while the control group was by Compound Borax solution plus Cydiodine Buccal tablets. The symptoms were scored before and after treatment, and the clinical efficacies were compared.Result The total effective rate was 93.3% in the treatment group versus 80.0% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The symptom scores were markedly changed after the treatment in both groups (P<0.01). The symptom score of the treatment group was significantly different from that of the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Intradermal needle therapy is an effective method in treating chronic pharyngitis.

Objective To evaluate effects of steep meridian clear corneal incisions on corneal anterior surface and total astigmatism in phacoemulsification surgery . Methods Clinical data of 56 cases of phacoemulsification surgery with steep meridian clear corneal incisions from August to December 2015 were analyzed in this retrospective study .Corneal anterior surface and total astigmatism were measured with the Pentacam 3D anterior segment measurement and analysis system at the time before surgery and 1 month and 3 months after surgery .The polar coordinate analysis was used to evaluate effects of steep meridian incisions on corneal astigmatism . Results All the operations were accomplished successfully with smooth recovery .The corneal anterior surface and total astigmatism reduced significantly after 1 month and 3 months in astigmatic polar value AKP ( +0) (P<0.05), but no significant difference was found in AKP(+45) (P>0.05).No significant differences were detected between both corneal anterior surface and total astigmatism in AKP(+0) or AKP(+45) between 1 month and 3 months after surgery. Conclusion Steep meridian incision performed on the preoperative steeper meridian of keratometric astigmatism may reduce corneal total astigmatism .

As locking plate is widely used in periarticular and comminuted fractures as well as in fixation of osteoporotic bone,the events involving difficulty in removal of a locking plate increase gradually.Little research addresses the difficulty in implant removal.Stripping of the recess of the screw head,cross-threading between threads in the screw head and screw hole and cold welding are the main causes for difficulty in removing screws from a locking plate.Skills for implant removal include simple ones that require no use of special devices and complex ones that require use of special devices.Difficult implant removal will result in lengthened operation time,increased risk of secondary invasive surgery,residues of metallic shavings and so on.Prevention is the most effective countermeasure.This review summarizes the cause for difficult removal of locking plate and screws as well as the removing skills to help orthopedic surgeons prevent and respond to the difficulties intraoperatively.

Objective To evaluate the differentiation and diagnosis of benign renal tumors and tumor-like lesions. Methods The data of 49 cases of benign renal tumors and tumor-like lesions were retrospectively analyzed.All the 49 cases underwent B-ultrasonography and CT;14 cases underwent MRI.The clinical manifestation,imaging features and the pathological results were evaluated.21 cases of benign renal tumors and tumor-like lesions were misdiagnosed as renal carcinoma and underwent nephrectomy.28 cases underwent nephron-sparing tumor excision. Results There was no specificity of the clinical presentation in all the cases.CT and MRI showed that angiomyolipoma had imaging features of intra-tumoral fat.Color Doppler ultrasonography showed the specific features of renal arterio-venous fistula and renal artery aneurysms.The other imaging features of benign renal tumors and tumor-like lesions had no specificity.28 cases who underwent nephron-sparing surgery were followed up for 1 to 9 years and had no relapse.Their renal functions were normal. Conclusions Bulltrosonography,CT and MRI are contributive to the diagnosis and treatment of benign renal tumors and tumor-like lesions.Using nephron-sparing surgery for indeterminate renal masses may reduce misdiagnosis and unnecessary nephrectomy.
