BACKGROUND:The development of spinal non-fusion technology promoted movement function protection of adjacent segment and operating segment. In the treatment of cervical spondylosis surgery, non-fusion technology has been widely carried out. For middle-aged patients with cervical spondylosis, the demand for spinal joint movement function is high. Non-fusion technology can improve the postoperative quality of life and slow down the risk of adjacent segment degeneration. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of anterior cervical different implant materials (fusion or non-fusion) in the treatment of single segment of the intervertebral disc degeneration of cervical spondylosis in middle-aged patients. METHODS:This study enrol ed 10 cases of single segmental radiculopathy and cervical myelopathy after cervical intervertebral disc replacement from June 2011 to June 2013. Simultaneously, 10 cases were randomly selected from patients with anterior interbody fusion as the control group. Before treatment, at 1 and 3 months, and 1 year after treatment, changes in range of motion of cervical vertebra were observed using imaging results. Therapeutic effects were assessed using Japanese Orthopaedic Association Scores, Visual Analog Scale and The Neek Disability Index in both groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Al patients did not suffer from incision fat liquefaction, infection and delayed healing, and had finished fol ow-up for more than 1 year. Results revealed that Japanese Orthopaedic Association Scores and Visual Analog Scale scores were improved at 1 and 3 months, and 1 year after treatment (P<0.05), and no significant difference was detected between the two groups (P>0.05). In the analysis of range of motion of cervical vertebra and The Neek Disability Index, there were significant advantages in non-fusion treatment group (P<0.05). For middle-aged patients with cervical spondylosis, due to its life demand for neck mobility, the repair program of non-fusion cervical intervertebral disc replacement has a clear advantage.

Objective To explore the protective measure and the complication of laparoscopic common bile duct primary closure surgery with self-releasing single-J tube. Methods The clinical data of 35 choledocholithiasis patients having underwent selective operation were retrospectively analyzed from January 2009 to November 2014. The operation was laparoscopic choledocholithotomy, a self-releasing single J-tube was placed in the common bile duct, and the common bile duct was primary closure. The postoperative complication was observed. Results All the patients were operated under laparoscope. The operative time was (120 ± 15) min, and the intraoperative bleeding was (50 ± 15) ml. The levels of diastase was normal or increased slightly 1 d after operation. There were no postoperative bile leakage, bleeding and incision infection. The diet was recovered 2-4 d after operation. Postoperative abdominal X-ray result showed that single-J tube position was good. Two-three weeks after operation, the single-J tube was discharged from the intestinal tract, without intestinal obstruction. The length of stay was (9.3 ± 1.8) d. Open operation with T tube drainage was performed in one case with the complication of stone residue and stenosis of common bile duct. Conclusions In laparoscopic common bile duct primary closure surgery, self-releasing single-J tube can provide security guarantees in patients with choledocholithiasis. Although there are some complications, it has less trauma and quicker recovery, and deserves further popularization and application.

Inspection of the complexion is one of the characteristics of traditional Chinese medical diagnosis. Traditional Chinese medicine puts high emphasis on inspection of the complexion and there exists detailed discussion on inspection of facial expression in Neijing. The so-called inspection of facial expression is a method to diagnose diseases according to the theory of five Zang-organs matching five elements and five colors by distinguishing various changes of facial color, such as green, red, yellow, white and black based on yin and yang doctrine and five elements theory. Nowadays, more and more experts have introduced color optical theory and modern devices into the modern research field of traditional Chinese medical diagnosis with the development of color optical theory and the renewal of determining devices, such as digital camera, color differentiation meter and spectrophotometer, to make the research more scientific and objective and avoid the deviations caused by human factors. The modern study of traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis has made fare progress, consequently enriching the contents of its facial color observation and giving a more scientific explanation of it. However, the devices being used now are still disunited; the data may be unilateral and cannot contain the whole information. So the most important task is to invent and use scientific devices conforming better with the theory of five colors observation in traditional Chinese medicine.

Objective To analyse the effects of serum estradiol levels during controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) on the outcomes of in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET). Methods The clinical data of 472 patients undergoing IVF-ET with GnRH analogues recombinant FSH long protocol were retrospectively analysed. The area under the curve (AUC) of estradiol (E2) level was calculated during COH, and patients were categorized into groups according to the percentile of AUC of E2(AUCE2) during COH. The general characteristics and parameters related to the outcomes of IVF-ET were compared among groups. Results The 10th percentile and 90th percentile of AUCE2 were 3 347.0 pmoL/L and 14 414.3 pmol/L, respectively. Four hundred and seventy-two patients were divided into lower reaction group (AUCE2 3 347.0 pmol/L, n=48), normal reaction group (14 414.3 pmol/L>AUCE2 > 3 347.0 pmol/L, n=376) and higher reaction group (AUCE2≥14 413.3 pmol/L, n=48). There was no significant difference in age, body mass index, baseline follicle stimulating hormone level, time of treatment with gonadotropin, endometrium thickness on day of transfer and embryos transferred(P>0.05). Compared with lower reaction group and normal reaction group, the number of oocytes per retrieval and number of embryos frozen were significantly larger(P<0.01) and the mild/severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome rate was significantly higher in higher reaction group(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in fertilization rate, cumulative embryo score, high-grade embryo rate, clinical pregnancy rate and implantation rate among groups (P> 0.05). Conclusion Sustained snpraphysiological serum E2 levels during the COH process do not adversely affect the quality of oocytes and embryos, clinical pregnancy rate and implantation rate to some extent in IVF-ET.
