Objective To compare the efficacies of unilateral biportal endoscopic(UBE)technique and percutaneous transforaminal endoscopic discectomy(PTED)in the treatment of lumbar spinal stenosis.Methods Forty patients who were diagnosed with lumbar spinal stenosis in Chashan Hospital of Dongguan from January 2019 to January 2023 were enrolled in this retrospective study.They were divided into PTED group(n=20)and UBE group(n=20).Perioperative data(operation time,intraoperative bleeding,postoperative hospital stay,degree of decompression and complications)were compared between the two groups.Visual analogue scale(VAS)score and Oswestry dysfunction index(ODI)were collected before surgery and on 3 days,1 month and 6 months after surgery.Results There were no significant differences in the operation time,intraoperative bleeding,or hospitalization time between the two groups(all P>0.05).The incidence of postoperative complications in the UBE group was significantly lower than that in the PTED group(P=0.001).VAS score and ODI of the low back and leg pains in the UBE group were superior to the PTED group at each postoperative time point(all P<0.05).One month after surgery,the UBE group had a more significant increase in the dural sac cross-sectional area and intervertebral foramen area than the PTED group(t=3.842,P=0.003;t=2.469,P=0.006).Conclusion Compared with PTED,UBE has better clinical outcomes,higher degree of decompression,and lower incidence of complications.UBE is a safe and feasible surgical method for the treatment of lumbar spinal stenosis.

Objective To study inhibition of litsea cubeba oil on biofilm initial formation stage of Candida albicans ,in order to provide new sight for prevention and treatment of refractory infections arising from Candida albicans biofilm .Methods Observe the inhibition effect of different concentrations litsea cubeba oil on yeast budding by serum germ tube experiments .Results 2 -5μL/mL litsea cubeba oil could thoroughly inhibit budding growth of Candida albicans ,but haven′t antiseptic effect ,the inhibition rate of 0 .25 μL/mL litsea cubeba oil on Candida albicans germ was 85 .0% .Conclusion 2-5μL/mL litsea cubeba oil could completely inhibit the budding growth of Candida albicans ,but have no antiseptic effect .0 .25 μL/mL litsea cubeba oil could hardly inhibit the growth of buds .

Objective To assess the efficacy of combined vitamin D with calcium and vitamin D or cal-cium alone in rickets of vitamin D deficiency by meta-analysis method. Methods Searches were made in Cochrance Library , Pubmed, Web of science, Scirus, CNKI, Chinese Biological Medical Literature Database, (CBM),Wangfang from the establishment of the data base till March 2013. All randomized controlled trials about combined with vitamin D and calcium in rickets of vitamin D deficiency were eligible. Serum 25-( OH) ritamin D,phosphate ,ALP,calcium,PTH,phosphate,albumin ,radiographic score were chosen as evaluation in-dex to evaluate the weighted mean diffreence ( WMD) and 95% confidence interval ( CI) for continuous data. RevMan 5. 0. 2 software was used to make meta-analysis. Results 437 literatures were reviewed. Three eligible trials were used for meta-analysis. Meta-analysis showed that:(1)the increase of Serum 25-(OH)vitamin D:Combined therapy group and vitamin D group (MD= -7. 88,95%CI:-12. 24~ -3. 52);Combined therapy group and calcium group (MD= -18. 32,95%CI:-22. 61~ -14. 04). (2)the increase of serum phosphate:Combined therapy group and vitamin D group ( MD= -0. 64 ( 95%CI:-0. 86 ~ -0. 42 );Combined therapy group and calcium group MD= -0. 16 ( 95%CI:-0. 84 ~0. 51 ) . ( 3 ) the decrease of Serum ALP:Combined therapy group and vitamin D group (MD= 109. 99,95%CI:20. 40 ~199. 58);Combined therapy group and calcium group (MD=59. 89,95%CI:10. 09~109. 59 ). (4)the increase of serum calcium :Combined therapy group and vitamin D group (MD= -0. 71,95%CI:-0. 91,-0. 52);the decrease of Radiographic score:Com-bined therapy group and vitamin D group( MD=0. 68,95%CI:0. 42~ 0. 95). Except that the increase of serum phosphate between combined therapy group and calcium group had no significant difference,the rest had signifi-cant difference. Conclusion The long term efficacy in combined therapy group is much effective than vitamin D group or calcium group.
