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.

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.

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 quantitatively analyze the image quality of megavoltage cone-beam CT (MVCBCT) under different scanning conditions to provide reference in clinical applications. Methods Si-emens ONCOR linear accelerator with MVCBCT was used to scan the phantom under different conditions. The image quality was evaluated in terms of image noise, uniformity, spatial resolution, contrast resolution, the number of Monitor Units(MUs) used in imaging,and the size of the reconstruction matrix. The comparison of the image quality between MVCBCT and conventional simulator CT was also analyzed. Results The image noise was decreased with the increase of the number of MUs. The uniformity index showed that the system u-niformity was weakly dependent on MU numbers or the size of the reconstruction matrix. Except for the ima-ges with 5 MUs,all other images had the spatial resolution of 0.4 lp/mm with a reconstruction matrix of 256 ×256. Better low contrast resolution was achieved by using more MUs. For typical pelvis and head-and-neck patients,the imaging dose at the center was 0.8 cGy/MU and 0.7 cGy/MU, respectively,and the maxi-mum dose was about 1.2 cGy/MU. For typical abdomen patients,the image maximum dose and center dose was 1.3 cGy/MU and 0.7 cGy/MU,respectively. Conclusions The image quality of MVCBCT is inferior to the conventional kilo-voltage CT. However,with the optimization of the parameters in imaging,we can a-chieve sufficient image contrast in the bone,air and some soft-tissue structures with low imaging dose to pa-tients. Such images can be used for IGRT.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and accuracy of performing dose calculation on megavoltage cone-beam CT(MVCBCT) in the head and neck. Methods MiniCTQC phantom was imaged using MVCBCT scanner, and the MVCBCT value density calibration curve was established. Conventional CT and MVCBCT image of phantom and nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC) patient were acquired respectively. Two kinds of single field plan were designed for conventional CT image of phantom,and IMRT plan was used for conventional CT image of a NPC patient. The conventional CT plans were copied to MVCBCT image. The dose distribution was calculated for targets and normal tissues using the MVCBCT value density calibration curve,and compared with that of conventional CT. Results For all the cases,the differences between the calculated dose distributions using MVCBCT and CT were less than 3% and 3 mm in single field plan. In IMRT plan, DVHs of conventional CT and MVCBCT were in excellent agreement. The biggest difference between conventional CT and MVCBCT was 95 cGy with the error of 1.4%. On the isocenter plane,the passing rate was 95.5% ,99.4% ,93.8% ,98.7%, 100% ,94.5% ,97.3% ,95.6% ,99.3% and 99.4% for the beam angle of 0°,45°,90°,120°,160°,200°,240°,280° and 320°. Conclusions Performing dose calculation using MVCBCT in head-and-neck region was feasible, and the dose distributions on the conventional CT and MVCBCT were in excellent agreement.

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.
