Objective To assess the growth station, the upper respiratory infection frequency and consultation frequency of the geographically defined high risk neonatal population at 1-year-old based on both birthweight and gestational age. Methods All infants admitted in our hospital from May in 2008 to May in 2009 were divided into three groups according to gestational age and birth weight, that were, group 1: born lt;32 completed gestational weeks and weighing ≥1 500 g; group 2: born after 32 completed gestational weeks and weighing lt;1 500 g; and group 3: born lt;32 completed gestational weeks and weighing lt;1 500 g. Information at 12 months corrected age about growth, the upper respiratory infection frequency and consultation frequency was collected. Results The growth rate of weight and head circumference in group 3 were lower than that in group 1, and the length growth rate was lower than that in group 1 and group 2. Infants in group 3 suffered from more airway infections (median: 15.5) than in group 1 (12.5) and group 2 (8.5). Infants in group 3 needed more medical consultations (median: 27.5) than those in group 1(17.5) and group 2 (15.5). Conclusions This study gives estimates for growth outcome, airway infection and consultation frequency at 12 months corrected age for very low birthweight infants (lt;1 500 g) and for very preterm infants (lt;32 completed gestational weeks). Gestational age and birth weight are the same important for predicting infants’ outcome and should therefore be integrated into clinical statistics.
目的探讨晚期恶性梗阻性黄疸减黄、保肝的处理方式。方法回顾性分析我科2008年1月至2009年10月期间收治的80例恶性梗阻性黄疸患者，根据肿瘤部位、患者身体、经济条件等确定无法行根治性手术者，采用不同的减黄术式。结果本组80例患者中，9例行PTCD，42例行PTBS，29例行ERBD。并发症发生情况: PTBS组有15例，ERBD组6例，PTCD组2例。PTCD组的住院时间和住院费用明显低于PTBS组和ERBD组(Plt;0.05)。结论晚期恶性梗阻性黄疸，一经确诊，尽早处理，微创引流减黄是首选方式。
ObjectiveTo summarize the clinical progress of minimally invasive techniques in treatment of pilonidal disease.MethodThe relevant literatures about minimally invasive techniques in the treatment of pilonidal disease in recent years were reviewed.ResultsAbout hair removal and carbolic acid injection, they had less damage, fewer complications, higher recurrence rate compared to other surgery, and did not affect the second treatment. The fibrin injection could not clarify its role in the treatment of pilonidal disease due to some defects in the clinical design. Bascom Ⅰhad the advantages of fast recovery and no need for hospitalization, with a recurrence rate of 8%–16%. According to the results of some current clinical researches, it was a promising operation. Sinus resection required further clinical evaluation due to the limited results of current researches. A clinical study of more than 1 000 cases over 10 years showed that the recurrence rate in 10 years was 16%. Compared with frequently used pilonidal operations, the trephine technique was associated with a lower recurrence rate and a lower incidence of postoperative complication. Some short-term clinical researches showed that endoscopic pilonidal sinus treatment was a safe, minimally invasive, and less complication treatment.ConclusionsCompared with frequently used pilonidal operations, minimally invasive technique has the advantages of shortening the hospital stay, shortening the healing time, and reducing complications. It is worth of application.
ObjectiveTo explore the incidence, treatment and prognosis of neonatal respiratory failure (NRF). MethodsThe clinical data of 421 neonates with NRF treated between January 2011 and December 2013 were retrospectively analyzed. ResultsThe incidence and the mortality of NRF was 4.8% and 14.5%, respectively. The main primary disease of NRF was neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (36.1%) and aspiration pneumonia (29.0%). Mechanical ventilation was the main treatment for NRF (77.2%). Premature (χ2=12.216, P<0.001), low birth weight (χ2=8.932, P=0.003) and the neonatal asphyxia (χ2=6.199, P=0.013) were closely related to the prognosis of NRF, which were the risk factors of the death of NRF. ConclusionNRF is a disease with high incidence and high mortality; make effective prevention and treatment measures are important to improve the success rate of therapy for NRF.
Objective To research the effects of recombinant growth hormone (rhGH) with total parenteral nutrition (TPN) on nitrogen balance and nutritional state of the patients following major abdominal surgery. Methods We randomly selected 45 patients receiving TPN after major abdominal surgery and distributed them to study group (rhGH+TPN, n＝30) and control group (TPN only, n＝15). For 7 days after operation, every one was given rhGH 4u or replaced by hypodermic injection of normal saline (control group). Results TPN+rhGH promoted the rehabilitant of nitrogen balance, heightened the level of plasma albumin and transferrin and increased the weight and creatinin/height index (CHI), but the thickness of triceps skin fold (TSF) had no significant change in patients following major abdominal surgery. Conclusion The rhGH can improve the effects of TPN.
Objective To investigate the surgical treatment method and the curative effect of tibial nonunion with superficial peroneal vascular fascia pedicel tibiofibular periosteal flap. Methods From January 1996 to December 2008, 18 cases of tibial nonunion were treated with superficial peroneal vascular fascia pedicel tibiofibular periosteal flap, interlockingintramedullary nail ing and cancellous bone graft of distal tibial. There were 14 males and 4 females, with an average age of 32.5 years old (range, 24-67 years old). Fracture site was middle in 10 cases and distal in 8 cases. Primary injury cause included 12 cases of traffic accident and 6 cases of bruise. The tibial nonunion reasons were manual reduction and plaster immobil ization in 8 cases, small spl int immobil ization in 4 cases, intramedullary nail fixation in 2 cases (no bone graft), plate fixation in 4 cases (including 3 cases of plate fixation and free il iac bone graft). Nonunion occurred after the first surgery. The time from nonunion to operation was 8 to 16 months, with an average of 10.5 months. The size of periosteal flap was 7 cm × 5 cm and distal tibial cancellous bone graft volume was 5-10 g. Results All incision achieved heal ing by first intention after operation without flap necrosis and infection. All patients were followed up 6-36 months with an average of 20.8 months. All tibial nonunion healed 5-7 months after operation. According to Johner-Wruh scoring, the results were excellent in 14 cases, good in 3 cases, and fair in 1 case; the excellent and good rate was 94.4%. Conclusion Superficial peroneal vascular tibiofibularfascia pedicel tibiofibular periosteal flap and interlocking intramedullary nail ing can attain good results in treating nonunion of tibia and fibula because of being stable internal fixation and promoting the heal ing of nonunion.
