Objective To investigate curative effect thymoleptics with couple therapy for the patients with postpartum depression (PPD) Methods 27 patients first time diagnosed with PPD consistent with DSM-Ⅳwere randomly divided into study group and control group.The study group received regular thymoleptics with couple therapy,a control group were administered solo thymoleptics.Hamilton Depression Rating Scale(HAMD-17) and Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS-10) and OLSON marriage quality questionnaire assessed the efficacy of each group before treatment and after 12 weeks treatment.Results (1) According to the total effective rate,there was no significantly differences in two groups after 12 weeks treatment from evaluation of HAMD-17>(P0.05),but complete remission of study group was higher than control group (78.6% ,46.2% ;P<0.05).(2) After 12 weeks treatment there were significantly differences in mean scores of HAMD-17 and EPDS-10 between two groups (P<0.05).The most decreased scores of HAMD-17 and EPDS-10 was found in the study group,and mean scores of each group was lower than pretherapy(P<0.05).(3) There was no significant difference on the scores of eight factors in OLSON marriage quality questionnaire between the two groups before treatment (P>0.05).After 12 weeks treatment the study group had higher score than control in seven factors in addition to sexual life factor (P<0.05).Conclusion Thymoleptics with couple therapy can improve the marriage quality and increase curative effects outstrip solo thymoleptics for the patients with postpartum depression.

Objective To investigate whether intrathecal administration of corticotrophin releasing factor(CRF) has an efficacy on visceral hypersensitivity in irritable bowel syndrome model rat.Methods Thirty rats were randomly divided into three groups(n=10 ).After establishment of irritable bowel syndrome rat model were intrathecal injected with CRF or preemptive peritoneal injected with CP-154526,which is inhibitor of CRF-1 receptor,and the control group to give saline.After experiment all rat with the method of rectal balloon distention,the perception thresholds and the number of abdominal withdrawal reflexes (AWR) of different balloon volume were observed.Results The perception threshold of intrathecal administration of CRF group was(0.62±0.10)ml and higher than other two groups [(0.52±0.09)ml,(0.56±0.08)ml;F=3.25,P＜0.05].At the same time,the number of AWR to the lower balloon content (1.0 ml) was(9.10±1.97)in intrathecal administration of CRF group slightly lower than other two groups[(14.4±1.71),(15.6±2.32);F=29.4,P＜0.01],but no difference was found to the higher balloon content (1.5 ml and 2.0 ml).Besides,the areas and OD value of c-fos positive neurons in cornu posterius medullae spinalis in group with intrathecal administration of CRF were significantly lower than other two groups (P＜0.05).Conclusion Intrathecal administration of CRF can degrade the visceral hyperensitivity in irritable bowel syndrome model rat,and lower expression of c-fos in CNS is probably involved in the process.

Objective To analyze diagnostic experience of children with anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) and assess its surgical results.Methods Six children with ALCAPA had been diagnosed in our hospital from Mar. 2006 to Oct.2007 aged from 6 months to 10 years old(median 43.5 months).The medical data included common clinical presentations,the findings of electrocardiogram(ECG),the echocardiogram,ECG-gated 64-slice computed tomography,the digital subtraction angiogram (DSA),surgical records and the outcome.Results Diaphoresis,fantod,breathlessness and difficult feeding were commonly presented in 5 cases ALCAPA and the 5 children presented with left ventricular failure in infancy.The predominant ECG findings were Q waves and ST segment changes in the anterolateral chest leads in 4 cases,ST changes in 1 case,and normal ECG in 1 case.Cross-sectional echocardiography showed dilated left ventricles with poor contractility in 4 cases,medium mitral regurgitation in 2 cases and severe mitral regurgitation in 2 cases,aneurysmal dilatation of the right coronary artery(RCA) in 2 cases.CT and DSA examinations showed characteristic changes in these children.The surgical reestablishment of a two-coronary system was performed in 5 cases,direct reimplantation in 2 cases and creation of an autologous extrapulmonary tunnel in 3 cases.Simultaneous mitral annuloplasty was performed in 2 cases.After operation,the symptoms of 5 cases were all improved and none died.Conclusions Understanding the clinical manifestations and lab findings of ALCAPA is helpful to making an early diagnosis of ALCAPA.Early surgical treatment can improve the patients′ outcome.

Objective To compare the clinical outcomes of percutaneous cannulated lag screws versus posterior buttress plate in the fixation for posterior malleolar fractures.Methods We reviewed the 167 patients who had been treated between January 2010 and December 2014 for ankle fracture involving larger than 25％ of the articular surface of the posterior malleolus.They received posterior malleolus fixation with percutaneous cannulated lag screws or with a buttress plate.In the cannulated screw group (84 patients),there were 47 males and 37 females,aged from 23 to 72 years (average,49.7 ±9.1 years),and 39 cases of type B and 45 ones of type C according to the Dennis-Webber classification.In the buttress plate group (83 patients),there were 38 males and 45 females,aged from 31 to 69 years (average,52.3 ± 8.3 years),and 45 cases of type B and 38 ones of type C according to the Dennis-Webber classification.At 6 and 12 months postoperation and the final follow-up,the ankle motion was evaluated using American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score and range of motion (ROM).Results The average operation time for the cannulated screw group was significantly shorter than for the buttress plate group (Z =-9.145,P ＜ 0.001).No fracture nonunion,reduction loss or incision infection happened in either group.In the cannulated screw group,we detected malunion with a step-off beyond 2 mm in 5 patients,and penetration of one cannulated lag screw into the tibiofibular syndesmosis in 3 patients.In the buttress plate group,we detected toe flexion contracture in 4 patients,and uncomfortable feeling in ankle motion in 7 patients.At the final follow-up,X-rays and CT scans in the 2 groups showed no obvious post-traumatic osteoarthritis of the ankle.There were no significant differences between the 2 groups regarding the AOFAS scores at 6 and 12 months postoperation and the final follow-up(P ＞ 0.05);the AOFAS scores at the final follow-up for all the patients were significantly different from those at 6 and 12 months postoperation (P ＜ 0.05).At the final follow-up,there were no significant differences between the 2 groups regarding ROMs of dorsal flexion,plantar flexion,varus or valgus (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions As there are no significant differences between the percutaneous cannulated lag screws and posterior buttress plate in AOFAS score and ROM of the ankle after fixation for posterior malleolar fractures,the 2 fixation methods can both achieve good clinical outcomes.Fixation with cannulated lag screws has advantages of indirect reduction and minimal invasion but also a disadvantage of uncertain quality of reduction;fixation with buttress plates has an advantage of anatomical reduction under direct vision but also shortcomings of relatively large invasion and high cost.
