Objective To observe the therapeutic effects of different doses of recombinant human tumor necrosis factor-receptor Ⅱ:IgG Fc fusion protein (rhTNFR:Fc) on rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods Seventy-six patients with RA were randomly divided into rhTNFR:Fc treatment group A (n=22; rhTNFR:Fc 25 mg, twice/week and methotrexate 10 mg/week), rhTNFR:Fc treatment group B (n=24; rhTNFR:Fc 12.5mg, twice/week and methotrexate 10 mg/week) and control group (n=30; methotrexate 10 mg/week). Joint function related parameters including number of swollen joints, number of tenderness, pain degree, time of morning stiffness, Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) score, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein and rheumatoid factor were detected before and 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16 and 24 weeks after treatment in all the patients. After being treated for 3 months, the changes of joint function related paramters were evaluated and compared among groups. ACR20, ACR50 and ACR70 criteria were employed to evaluate the therapeutic effects. Results There was no significant difference in joint function related parameters among three groups before treatment (P＞0.05), while those improved significantly after treatment for 3 months (P<0.05), with more favorable results in rhTNFR:Fc treatment group A and B than in control group (P<0.05). The percent of patients with ACR50 in rhTNFR:Fc treatment group A was significantly higher than that in rhTNFR:Fc treatment group B 2 and 4 weeks after treatment (P<0.05), while there was no significant difference in total effect between these two groups 8, 12, 16 and 24 weeks after treatment(P＞0.05). Conclusion Small dose of rhTNFR:Fc in combination with methotrexate may yield effective and economical results for treatment of RA.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of etanercept in treatment of ankylosing spondylitis. MethodsEighty-six patients were randomized into experiment group and control group (n=43). Patients in experiment group were treated with non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and etanercept (25 mg, twice/week, subcutaneous injection in the upper arm), and those in control group were managed with NSAIDs and sulfasalazine. Reexaminations were performed after treatment for 3 months, and the prevalence of low back pain, time of morning stiffness, Bath ankylosing spondylitis disease activity index(BASDAI), Bath ankylosing spondylitis functional index(BASFI), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) were analysed, and the prevalence of adverse effects was observed. ResultsCompared with those at administration, the prevalences of low back pain significantly reduced (P<0.05 or P<0.01), the time of morning stiffness significantly decreased (P<0.05), BASDAI and BASFI significantly improved, and ESR and CRP significantly decreased 3 months after treatment in both groups (P<0.05). After treatment for three months, the clinical parameters in experiment group were more favourable than those in control group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the prevalence of adverse effects between two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Etanercept has favourable short-term therapeutic effects on ankylosing spondylitis with minor adverse effects.

Resident standardization training system is established in the framework of modern western medicine. With less consideration to the specificity of TCM on the curriculum, teaching mode and other aspects, it is not suitable for the actual requirement of TCM hospital. TCM apprentice education has a long history, is an important form of the traditional education of Chinese medicine. Leading the TCM apprentice education mode into the standardized training of resident physicians, exploring the construction of the teaching model suited to help the masses of TCM college graduates training will play an increasingly important role in training work.

AIM: To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of heavy silicone oil (HSO), Densiron 68, was used as internal tamponade to treat complex vitreoretinopathy.METHODS: A retrospective study of 30 patients (30 eyes) who underwent vitrectomy and HSO tamponade for complex retinal detachment between January 2015 and January 2016.The best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure (IOP), retinal reattachment and complications after surgery were observed.RESULTS: There were statistical significances in both the BCVA difference between pre-operation and HSO tamponade, and the BCVA difference between pre-operation and the removal of HSO for 3mo (z=-2.198, P=0.028;z=-2.682, P=0.007).The average intraocular pressure of HSO tamponade group was 20.233±8.007mmHg, and the average intraocular pressure of pre-operation group was 16.067±4.025mmHg, showing significant difference(t=-2.913, P=0.005).Between the pre-operation group and the HSO removed group 14.933±3.423mmHg, there was no significant statistical difference in the analysis of IOP (t=2.635, P=0.430).Anatomical success was achieved in 90% of cases after the removal of HSO.Most common complications were cataract formation and oil emulsification.CONCLUSION: Densiron-68 is a safe and effective tamponade material for the treatment of complex vitreoretinopathy.However, most common complications are cataract formation and oil emulsification.So clinicians should strictly handle indications and usage during the clinical applications.

Objective To study the incidence of pelvic adhesions in endometriosis(EM) and the relationship between pelvic adhesions and pain symptoms. Methods The incidence of pelvic adhesions, dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain, dyspareunia, dyschizia in 480 patients with EM were studied retrospectively to evaluate the correlation between pelvic adhesions and the degree of pain symptoms. In accordance with the revised American Fertility Society classification (r-AFS), it was observed that 155 cases were in Stage Ⅰ,33 cases were in stage Ⅱ,108 cases were in stage Ⅲ and 184 were cases in stage Ⅳ. Results (1) Among 480 cases with EM, 72.3% (347/480) of patients have pelvic adhesions simultaneously, of which 25.2% (39/155) patients were in Stage Ⅰ, 78.8% (26/33) patients were in Stage Ⅱ, 90.7% (98/108) patients were in Stage Ⅲ and 100.0% (184/184) patients were in Stage Ⅳ. It was found that positive correlation existed between the degree of pelvic adhesions and clinical staging of EM(rs=0.870,P<0.01).(2) 61.0%(293/480) of patients presented dysmenorrhoea, of which the percentages of mild, moderate and severe dysmenorrhea were 52.2%(153/293), 26.6%(78/293), 21.2% (62/293), respectively. The rate of patients presenting chronic pelvic pain (CPP), dyspareunia and dyschezia were 23.8% (114/480), 15.4% (74/480) and 7.1% (34/480), respectively. (3) Ovarian adhesions was positively correlated with dysmenorrhea and CPP(rs=0.367 and 0.267,P<0.01). Adhesion of the bottom and posterior wall of uterus was positively correlated with dysmenorrhea and CPP (rs=0.336, 0.164,P<0.01); adhesions of fallopian tubes were positively correlated with dysmenorrhea, CPP and dyschezia (rs=0.283, 0.225 and 0.159, P<0.01). Adhesions of rectum was positively correlated with dysmenorrhea (rs=0.101,P<0.05). In addition to dyspareunia, the degree of pelvic adhesions was positively correlated with dysmenorrhea, CPP and dyschezia (rs=0.470, 0.273, 0.132, P<0.01). Conclusion Pelvic adhesions are characteristic lesions of endometriosis, the site and degree pelvic adhesions are closely correlated with pain symptoms.

A total of 20 patients with massive hemorrhage for pelvic fracture, underwent angiographic embolization with gelfoam sponge embolization agents in 3-8 hours after admitted at the Department of Orthopedics, Changhai Affiliated Hospital of Second Military Medical University of Chinese PLA between January 2001 and August 2003 were selected. The patients aged ranged from 18-70 years (mean 43.4-year-old), including 12 male and 8 female. Conduits were inserted into the internal iliac artery embranchment of 8 cases with method of ultraselection, and gelfoam sponge grain and contrast medium were injected together. Conduits combined with gelfoam sponge grain and contrast medium were inserted into 12 cases’ pathic internal iliac artery bole. The whole 20 cases were performed endovascular embolization, and blood pressures turned to normal level after operation gradually without serious complications of embolization. One case died of deterioration after blood pressure stabilization. The result reveals that anglo-graphic embolization with gelfoam sponge embolization agents is a safe, quick and effective method of controlling the severe hemorrhage caused by pelvic fracture.
