Objective　To investigate the relationship of motor unit number estimation(MUNE)by multiple point stimulation with the outcome of surgical treatment patients with Hirayama disease(HD).Methods　A total of 36 consecutive patients including unilateral in 26 cases and bilateral in 10 cases with Hirayama disease treated by anterior cervical discectomy decompression and fusion in Peking University Third Hospital from October 2007 to May 2015 were reviewed retrospectively.There were 35 males and 1 female,aged from 16-26 years(average,19.2 years).A total of 46 hands were enrolled.Odom criteria was used to evaluate the subjective outcome of surgical treatment.Multiple point stimulating technique was used to estimate the motor unit number of abductor pollicis brevis and abductor digitiminimi preoperatively and at the time of pre-operation and the latest follow-up.Hands were divided into two groups based on Odom criteria(Group A with excellent and good;Group B with fair and poor).The difference between the two groups were examined by t text.Results　A total of 46 hands with complete clinical and electrophysiology data were followed up for 12-96 months(average,28.2 months).The outcome at the final follow-up according to Odom criteria was:Excellent in 8 cases,Good in 18 cases,Fair in 20 cases and no Poor case.MUNE of abductor pollicis brevis increased significantly after surgery from 139.6±68.4 to 188.2±60.4(t=-5.86,P<0.001).MUNE of abductor digitiminimi increased significantly after surgery from 75.0±66.3 to 104.2±80.4 significantly(t=-3.86,P<0.001).For two groups in age,follow-up period,preoperative MUNE of abductor pollicis brevis,and preoperative abductor digitiminimi,there was no significant difference.The illness course of Group A was 24.0±11.3 months,which was significantly shorter than Group B 34.9±21.2 months(t=-4.452,P<0.01).Group A had more increased MUNE of abductor pollicis brevis 65.6±64.1 compared with Group B 26.7±34.7(t=2.446,P<0.05)and Group A had more increased MUNE of abductor digitiminimi 42.6±59.3 compared with Group B 11.8±32.4 after surgery(t=2.088,P<0.05).Conclusion　MUNE by multiple point stimulating technique could be used to evaluate the neurological function of Hirayama disease and the outcome of surgical treatment quantitatively.

Objective To investigate the application value of limited liquid resuscitation combined with continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in treatment of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) companied with abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS).Methods The retrospective cohort study was adopted.The clinical data of 67 patients with SAP companied with ACS who were admitted to the Fuling Center Hospital of Chongqing from January 2005 to December 2014 were collected.Among 67 patients,33 receiving conventional liquid resuscitation between January 2005 and December 2010 were allocated into the control group and 34 receiving limited liquid resuscitation combined with CRRT between January 2011 and December 2014 were allocated into the observation group.Observation indicators included:(1) required fluid volume and time of negative fluid balance in the 2 groups;(2) changes of pathological and physiological indicators after treatment in the 2 groups;(3)outcomes and prognosis of patients in the 2 groups.Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as (x)±s and comparison between groups was analyzed using t test.Count data were analyzed using the chi-square test.Repeated measurement data were analyzed by repeated measures ANOVA.Results (1) Required fluid volume and time of negative fluid balance in the 2 groups:required fluid volumes at 6,24,48 and 72 hours after resuscitation were (2 449±339) mL,(4 820±757) mL,(9 428± 1 272) mL,(13 127± 1 565) mL in the control group and (2 360± 314) mL,(4 582±530) mL,(8 564± 970) mL,(11 470± 1 253) mL in the observation group,respectively,with a statistically significant difference in required fluid volume between the 2 groups (F=13.035,P＜0.05) and in required fluid volume at 48 and 72 hours between the 2 groups (t=3.132,4.794,P＜0.05).Time of negative fluid balance in the observation group and control group was (4.3± 1.7)days and (6.4 ±1.8)days,respectively,showing a statistically significant difference between the 2 groups (t =4.913,P＜0.05).(2) Changes of pathological and physiological indicators in the 2 groups after treatment:time factors:from 0 h to 168 h postoperatively,APACHE Ⅱ score,C-reaction protein (CRP),D-dimer,IAP,Bla and oxygenation index were changed from 20.9±4.1 to 13.9±2.6,from (167±39)mg/L to (55±17) mg/L,from (1 652±1 544) μg/L to (993±500)μg/L,from (23.4±3.4)cmH2O (1 cmH2O=0.098 kPa) to (21.4±2.9)cmH2O,from (4.6±1.6) mmol/L to (1.4±0.5)mmol/L,from (189±27) mmHg (1 mmHg =0.133 kPa) to (152±23)mmHg in the control group,and chaged from 21.5±5.1 to 11.0±2.8,from (168±36)mg/L to (44±19)mg/L,from (1 634±1 525) μg/L to (578±350) μg/L,from (23.2±2.5)cmH2O to (17.4±2.6)cmH2O,from (4.5±1.6)mmol/L to (0.8±0.3)mmol/L,from (188±26)mmHg to (196±25)mmHg in the observation group,respectively,showing gradual decreasing with time and statistically significant differences between the 2 groups (F =186.415,581.118,34.618,212.416,262.272,207.645,P＜0.05).Treatment factors:there were no significant differences in changing trends of APACHE Ⅱ score,D-dimer and Bla between the 2 groups (F=3.499,2.350,3.516,P＞0.05),and there were significant differences in changing trends of CRP,IAP and oxygenation index between the 2 groups (F=4.009,15.276,14.959,P＜0.05).Interaction effect between time factors and treatment factors:there were obviously interaction effects between time factors and treatment factors in APACHE Ⅱ score,CRP,IAP and oxygenation index (F=4.890,4.912,23.874,28.615,P＜0.05) and no interaction effects between time factors and treatment factors in D-dimer and Bla (F=2.803,1.920,P＞0.05).(3) Outcomes and prognosis of patients in the 2 groups:numbers of patients with surgery,local complications and infection and duration of hospital stay were 11,16,14,(46±17)days in the control group and 4,6,6,(36±14) days in the observation group,respectively,with statistically significant differences between the 2 groups (x2=4.484,7.221,4.910,t =2.433,P＜0.05).Mortality and hospital expenses were 24.2％ (8/33),(33± 18) x 104 yuan in the control group and 8.8％ (3/34),(27± 14)× 104 yuan in the observation group,respectively,with no statistically significant difference between the 2 groups (x2 =2.901,t =1.283,P＞ 0.05).Conclusion Limited liquid resuscitation combined with CRRT can effectively control IAP of patients with SAP companied with ACS and improve oxygenation index,meanwhile,it can also reduce number of patients with surgery,infection and local complications and duration of hospital stay.

Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has broke out in 29 countries and regions in the world in a short period since December 2019. Various measures of prevention and control have been taken all over China. At present, the epidemic situation shows a positive trend, however, there are still a few new comfirmed cases in some area of China. So the job and thinking of epidemic prevention still cannot be relaxed. As an important specialty of stomatology, the risk of cross infection is high in oral medicine. Establishing an effective system of pre- inspection and triage and adopting strict measures of prevention and control are essential. According to the prevention and control situation of COVID- 19, the characteristics of hospital infection, pre examination, protective measures, the home management strategies of oral mucosal diseases during the epidemic period and the differential diagnosis between COVID-19 and common oral muco- sal diseases with fever were summarized and recommended in this paper.
