Objective To study the operation design and surgical methods for terminal surgical reconstruction of severe post-midfacial fracture deformities. Methods From July 1997 to December 2002,11 cases of severe and complex post-midfacial deformities were reconstructed. There were four cases with Le Fort Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ fractures,five with Le Fort Ⅰ and Ⅲ fractures and two with Le Fort Ⅰ and Ⅱ fractures combined with right orbital-zygomatic fractures. Typical bicoronal and subcilliary incisions and intra-oral approach were employed to expose all the fractured sites. The displaced orbito-zygomatic bone fragments were repositioned firstly in order to reconstruct the outer midfacial framework. Then, the malunited maxilla was reduced to its proper position after osteotomy of Le Fort Ⅰ fractures under the guidance of mandible through inter-maxilla fixation. The depressed naso-orbital region were reconstructed using autogeneous outer cranial table. Meanwhile, nasal framework reconstruction, medial canthal tendon reapproximation and plasty, and fractured orbital walls repairing were performed to correct the enophathalmos. Results All the cases recovered well and the post-operative facial appearance and occlusal function were improved obviously. Conclusions Complex midfacial fractures, usually involving orbital-zygomatic bone, naso-orbit and maxillary bone, can be well improved through osteotomy and reduction, internal rigid fixation with mini-plates and screws, autogenenous bone grafting and framework reconstruction.

The prognosis of malignant tumors of the digestive system is still a matter of close attention in the medical and health field. At present, evaluating the prognosis of patients with digestive system malignant tumors is mainly based on the TNM staging of the tumor after surgery. As one of the ten characteristics of cancer, inflammatory indicators have certain guiding significance for the prognosis and treatment of patients with malignant tumors of the digestive system. As a new type of inflammation index, the systemic inflammatory response index is significantly better than other traditional inflammatory indexes in evaluating the prognosis of patients with digestive system malignant tumors. This article reviews the related studies on the systemic inflammatory response index in evaluating the prognosis of digestive system malignant tumors.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the antimicrobial activity of recombinant human ?-defensin 3(rhBD-3) on clinically isolated multidrug-resistant bacterial strains.METHODS The antimicrobial activity of rhBD-3 on clinically isolated multidrug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus,Enterococcus faecium,Acinetobacter baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa from the wards of burns department was measured by turbidity method.RESULTS rhBD-3 Demonstrated antimicrobial activity against all the strains in a dose-dependent manner.The minimal inhibitory concentration(MIC) to Gram-positive strains and Gram-negative strains was 4 ?g/ml and 8 ?g/ml,respectively.CONCLUSIONS rhBD-3 Has significant antimicrobial activity against clinically isolated multidrug-resistant strains and thus implies therapeutic potential as an effective substitute for the present drug-resistant bacteria.

Objective To investigate the clinical therapeutic effect of Chaishi fever particles on patients with epidemic encephalitis B and to study the machanism of anti-inflammatory.Methods One hundred and twenty one patients with epidemic encephalitis B admitted to the Second Clinical Medical College of Henan University of Chinese Medicine from January 2014 to May 2017 were enrolled, and they were divided into a routine treatment group (60 cases) and a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatment group (61 cases) by random number table. The patients in routine treatment group were given symptomatic support and comprehensive treatment for 15 days, while those in the TCM treatment group were given as that of routine group with the addition of Chaishi fever particles 8 g, 4 times every day, orally taken for consecutive 15 days. The levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL-1β, IL-10) in the serum of two groups were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the clinical therapeutic effect, complications and sequelae in two groups after treatment were observed.Results Compared with the routine treatment group, after treatment the time of body temperature recovering normal (days: 5.8±1.2 vs. 7.5±1.7), the coma time (days: 5.5±1.3 vs. 6.8±1.6), the remission time of convulsion (days: 5.2±1.4 vs. 6.5±1.5), and the length of stay in hospital (days: 22.6±1.9 vs. 25.2±1.8 ) were significantly shorter in TCM treatment group (P < 0.05). After treatment, the levels of serum tumor TNF-α and IL-1β were decreased, IL-10 was increased in both groups, moreover, compared with the routine treatment group, the changes were more obvious in TCM treatment group [TNF-α (μg/L): 11.4±3.6 vs. 14.6±3.5, IL-1β (μg/L): 22.3±6.2 vs. 26.2±5.6, IL-10 (μg/L): 225.2±19.2 vs. 186.2±21.5, allP < 0.05]. In addition, compared with the routine treatment group, the total effective rate was higher [98.3% (60/61) vs. 90.0% (54/60),P < 0.05], and the incidence of sequelae was lower [1.64% (1/61) vs. 13.3% (8/60),P < 0.05] in TCM treatment group.Conclusion The Chaishi fever particles can effectively treat the patients with epidemic encephalitis B and the action is related to the inhibition of inflammatory reaction.

Forty-five patients with burn area exceeding 30% TBSA were studied prospectively. Among these 45 patients, 13 developed multiple organ failure (MSOF). Blood superoxide, dismutase (SOD) activity and plasma malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were sequentially determined to assess the role of excessive release of oxygen radicals and lipid peroxidase injury in the mechanism of pathogenesis of postburn MSOF. The results showed that the anti-oxidation capacity of the body was markedly depressed and lipid peroxidase injury markedly increased after a severe burn injury. These changes were not only related to hypovolemic shock after the injury, but also the severity of the burn injury and infection.

Objective: To compare the efifcacy between emergent and delayed stent implantation in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) after thrombus extraction.
Methods: A total of 82 STEMI patients who received thrombus extraction and intracoronary injection of tiroifban, sodium nitroprusside, nitroglycerin via thrombus extraction catheter and with recovered TIMI 3 lfow from 2012-11 to 2014-01 were retrospectively studied. The patients were randomized into 2 groups by SAS software: Emergent group, the patients received stent implantation immediately upon diagnosis and Delayed group, the patients were treated by anti-platelet and anticoagulant medication for 10-14 days, and then received stent implantation. n=41 in each group. The primary and secondary indicators were compared between 2 groups which including ST-segment resolution (STR), the occurrence rate of no-relfow/slow-relfow, myocardial blush grade (MBG) 3, parameters of stent, ventricular remodeling condition, the incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE).
Results: ①Delayed group had the post PCI STR at (68.2 ± 9.2)%, TIMI 3 grade at 97.5%, MBG 3 at 69.0%and corrected TIMI frame count (CTFC) at (19.5 ± 5.2), compared with Emergent group, P<0.05. The occurrence rate of no-relfow/slow-relfow in Delayed group and Emergent group were 2.5% and 31.0%, P<0.01. ②The parameters of stents in Delayed group and Emergent group were as the number at (1.21 ± 0.32) vs. (1.76 ± 0.76), the mean length at (28.3 ± 11.7) mm vs. (33.7 ± 12.9) mm, the mean diameter at (3.17 ± 0.76) mm vs. (2.82 ± 0.87) mm, all P<0.01. Delayed group had the higher dilating pressure than that in Emergent group, (18.5 ± 6.2) atm vs (13.6 ± 7.1) atm, P<0.01, and more patients in Delayed group receive high-pressure non-compliant balloon dilation 75% vs 23.8%, P<0.01. ③With 6 months of follow-up study, there were slightly declining trend for LVEF and LVSF in both groups than that at 1 week condition, P>0.05, while LVEDV and LVEDD increased than 1 week, P<0.05, the changes were more obvious in Emergent group, P<0.05. Delayed group had less MACE occurrence, P<0.05.
Conclusion: Delayed stent implantation in STEMI patients after thrombus extraction had reduced incidence of post PCI no-relfow/slow-relfow phenomenon, improved myocardial reperfusion and less MACE occurrence.

Objective To explore the prognostic factors of intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinical data of patients admitted to ICU of Beijing Geriatric Hospital from January 2005 to December 2016 were collected. According to the prognosis, the patients were divided into death group and survival group, and the mortality trend with time and age was observed. Survival and death were treated as dependent variables, while the gender, age, reason of ICU admission, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHEⅡ) score, whether undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation (MV), invasive MV reason, duration of invasive MV, whether successful weaning, whether ICU nosocomial infection, hospital acquired pneumonia (HAP), central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI), acute kidney injury (AKI) occurred, whether undergoing continuous blood purification (CBP), whether septic shock occurred, whether undergoing invasive hemodynamic monitoring or blood transfusion and length of ICU stay were used as the independent variables. First, the clinical data was analyzed by univariate analysis. Second, the independent variables influencing the dependent variable were analyzed by logistic regression analysis to screen out prognostic factors of ICU patients. Results During the study period, 1325 patients were treated, 26 patients with missing data, 1299 patients in final group, 865 patients in survival group, and 434 in death group. The proportion of men in the patients was larger (67.7%), and the age span was larger (16-105 years old). The mortality rate in different years showed no significant difference (χ2 = 16.712, P = 0.117), and with the increase of age, the mortality rate of ICU showed an upward trend (χ2 = 16.399, P = 0.022). The univariate analysis showed that ICU deaths were unrelated to gender, but associated with age, APACHE Ⅱ score, invasive MV, invasive MV reason, duration of invasive MV, successful weaning, ICU nosocomial infection, HAP, CLABSI, AKI, septic shock, whether CBP or invasive hemodynamic monitoring, blood transfusion, the reason of ICU admission and the length of ICU stay (all P < 0.05). The relevant factors with statistical difference found in univariate analysis were analyzed in logistic regression analysis, which showed that whether successful weaning [odds ratio (OR) = 0.016, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 0.010-0.025], and whether AKI (OR = 3.917, 95%CI = 2.331-6.582) or septic shock occurred (OR = 2.808, 95%CI = 1.604-4.915) were the dependent variables of death or survival (all P = 0.000). Regression coefficient (β value) of successful weaning was -4.155, suggesting that unsuccessful weaning patients were likely to die. The β value of AKI and septic shock was 1.365 and 1.033, suggesting that the patients with AKI or septic shock were more likely to die. Conclusions Whether the success of weaning, whether the occurrence of AKI or septic shock are independent prognostic factors for the prognosis of ICU patients. Measures for the prevention of the above three aspects could improve the prognosis of ICU patients.
