For the treatment of postherpetic neuralgia, drugs have always played a major but unsatisfactory role. As auxiliary or alternative therapies for postherpetic neuralgia, non-pharmacological interventions, such as electrical stimulation and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, not only have shown favorable efficacy, but also can decrease adverse reactions to drugs with high safety and patient acceptance, and are benificial for management of patients with postherpetic neuralgia.

Pulmonary blast injury has become the main type of trauma in modern warfare, characterized by externally mild injuries but internally severe injuries, rapid disease progression, and a high rate of early death. The injury is complicated in clinical practice, often with multiple and compound injuries. Currently, there is a lack of effective protective materials, accurate injury detection instrument and portable monitoring and transportation equipment, standardized clinical treatment guidelines in various medical centers, and evidence-based guidelines at home and abroad, resulting in a high mortality in clinlcal practice. Therefore, the Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association and the Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized military and civilian experts in related fields such as thoracic surgery and traumatic surgery to jointly develop the Clinical treatment guideline for pulmonary blast injury ( version 2023) by combining evidence for effectiveness and clinical first-line treatment experience. This guideline provided 16 recommended opinions surrounding definition, characteristics, pre-hospital diagnosis and treatment, and in-hospital treatment of pulmonary blast injury, hoping to provide a basis for the clinical treatment in hospitals at different levels.

Objective:To explore the impact of weekend hospitalization on total hospitalization expenses for elderly patients with hip fracture under the geriatric orthopedic co-management.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted to analyze the clinical data of elderly patients with hip fracture who had been hospitalized for surgical treatment at Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from May 2015 to December 2020. They were divided into 2 groups based on their admission date. Group A was admitted from Monday to Thursday while Group B from Friday to Sunday. The general demographic data, diagnostic information, comorbidities, hospitalization expenses of the patients were collected. The differences in total hospitalization expenses, hospitalization time, rate of surgery within 48 hours and rate of hospital mortality between the 2 groups were analyzed by rank sum test, chi square test, correlation analysis, and multiple linear regression.Results:A total of 6,075 patients with hip fracture were included in this study, including 1,675 males and 4,400 females with a median age of 80 (74, 85) years. There were 3,935 ones in group A and 2,140 ones in group B. The total hospitalization expenses for group A was 58,160.52 (49,215.45, 72,748.94) yuan, insignificantly lower than those for Group B [58,412.90 (49,163.58, 72,712.61) yuan] ( P>0.05). The rate of surgery within 48 hours for group A was 75.8% (2,984/3,935), significantly higher than that for group B [49.3% (1,054/2,140)]. The hospitalization time for group A was 5 (4, 7) days, significantly less than that for group B [5 (4, 7) days] ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the rate of hospital mortality between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that total hospitalization expenses were significantly higher for patients admitted on weekends, hospitalization time was positively correlated with total hospitalization expenses, and total hospitalization expenses were significantly lower for the patients undergoing surgery within 48 hours ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Admission on weekends can increase total hospitalization expenses, prolong hospitalization time, and reduce rate of surgery within 48 hours for elderly patients with hip fracture.

Objective:To comprehensively evaluate the correlation between migraine and the risk of hemorrhagic stroke using Meta-analysis.Methods:The published observational studies on migraine and the risk of hemorrhagic stroke in PubMed, EMbase, Cochrane library, Chinese Biomedical Database, China Journal Full-text Database, Wanfang Database and VIP Database were retrieved by computers. The retrieval time limit was from the establishment of the databases to December 31, 2019. Two reviewers independently conducted the literature screening and data extraction, and evaluated the quality according to Newcastle Ottawa scale. Stata SE 12.1 software was used for Meta-analysis.Results:Six case-control studies and 7 cohort studies met the inclusion criteria, all of which were in English. The results of Meta-analysis showed that exposure to migraine increased the risk of hemorrhagic stroke (odds ratio [ OR] 1.47, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 1.23-1.76; P<0.001). Sensitivity analysis showed that the results were robust. Subgroup analysis showed that migraine with aura ( OR 1.38, 95% CI 1.05-1.81; P=0.019), migraine without aura ( OR 1.46, 95% CI 1.19-1.80; P<0.001), male ( OR 2.10, 95% CI 1.72-2.56; P<0.001) and female ( OR 1.53, 95% CI 1.22-1.92; P<0.001) migraine could increase the risk of hemorrhagic stroke. Conclusion:Regardless of the gender of patients and presence or absence of migraine aura, migraine can significantly increase the risk of hemorrhagic stroke.

A large number of viruses have been found to be associated with ocular diseases, including human adenovirus, human herpesvirus (HHV), human T lymphotropic virus type-1 (HTLV-1), and newly emerging severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). This group of diseases is prone to be misdiagnosed or missed diagnosis, resulting in serious tissue and visual damage. Etiological diagnosis is a powerful auxiliary mean to diagnose the ocular diseases associated with human adenovirus, herpes simplex virus 1 and varicella-zoster virus, and it provides the leading diagnosis evidence of infections with herpes simplex virus 2, Epstein-Barr virus, cytomegalovirus, HHV-6/7, HHV-8, HTLV-1 and SARS-CoV-2. Virus isolation, immunoassay and genetic diagnosis are usually used for etiologic diagnosis. For genetic diagnosis, the PCR technique is the most important approach because of its advantages of rapid detection, convenient operation, high sensitivity and high specificity.
