【Abstract】Objective To investigate prophylactic measures for nontraumatic complications of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC).Methods The data of 13 000 patients who underwent LC in Kunming general hospital of PLA over 13 years(1991-2004) were retrospectively reviewed. Results Nine malignant tumors and 47 common bile duct stones were missed at LC. The 9 malignant tumors included hepatic cancer (n=1), gastric cancer (n=1), gallbladder cancer (n=2), pancreatic cancer (n=2) and right colon cancer (n=3). Of all the carcinomas, 3 patients with right colon cancer underwent colectomy, the other 6 patients couldn’t be cured radically. All the 47 patients with choledocholithiasis were cured successfully, among them 31 patients were performed with ERCP and 16 were reoperated on with cholangiotomy. Conclusion This study emphasizes the necessity to analyze carefully patients’ symptoms before operation and pay attention to pathological changes of gallbladder and intraabdominal situation intraoperatively. If necessary, laparoscopic ultrosonography can be used to avoid missing malignant tumors and biliary stones.
Objective To explore the significance and the relationshi p between osteoporosis and the mRNA expressions of vascular endothel ial growth factor (VEGF) and bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) in nontraumatic avascular necrosis of the femoral head (NONFH), so as to provide a theoretical basis for the pathogenesis and the cl inical treatment of NONFH. Methods Sixty-nine specimens of femoral head were collected from voluntary donators undergoing total hi p arthroplasty, including 37 cases of NONFH (NONFH group) and 32 cases of fresh femoral neck fracture (control group). In NONFH group, there were 26 males and 11 females with an average age of 57.3 years (range, 43-75 years), including 19 cases of steroid-induced avascular necrosis of the femoral head (ANFH), 16 cases of alcohol ic ANFH, and 2 cases of idiopathicANFH; according to Ficat staging system, there were 23 cases at stage III and 14 cases at stage IV. In control group, there were 23 males and 9 females with an average age of 58.6 years (range, 46-79 years). The NO level of serum, the Q value of femur, and the bone mineral density (BMD) of weight-bearing area were measured firstly. The bone tissues were harvested from weightbearing necrosis area and healthy area. The pathological change was observed by HE staining, the percentage of empty bone lacuna and the percentage of trabecular bone area were calculated. The mRNA expressions of VEGF and BMP-2 in femoral head were detected through in situ hybridization technique. Results There were significant differences (P lt; 0.05) in the NO level of serum, the Q value of femur, and the BMD between NONFH group and control group. In NONFH group, the femoral head showed irregular shape, the articular cartilage exfol iated and collapsed. In weight-bearing necrosis area, the bone trabeculae were sparse and non-intact with a great number of empty lacuna; necrotic bone trabeculae were decomposed and absorbed; no obvious bone regeneration and repair were observed. In weight-bearing healthy area, the fat cells in bone marrow showed prol iferation and hypertrophy. In control group, the femoral head had normal appearance, intact articular cartilage, and intact bone trabeculae with a regular arrange, and osteocytes were clearly seen. There were significant differences in the percentage of empty bone lacuna and the percentage of trabecular bone area between NONFH group and control group (P lt; 0.05). The mRNA expressions of VEGF and BMP-2 were positive in 2 groups. The positive area ratio, the absorbance value, and integral absorbancevalue of VEGF mRNA and BMP-2 mRNA in NONFH group were significantly lower than those in control group (P lt; 0.05);the grey scales of VEGF mRNA and BMP-2 mRNA in NONFH group were significantly higher than that in control group (P lt;0.05). Conclusion The pathological stage of osteoporosis may play an important role in the mechanism of the NONFH. The decrease of mRNA expressions of VEGF and BMP-2 in femoral head of NONFH is important reason that affect its bone mass, osteoporosis, rehabil itation, and reconstruction. It may be benefit to the reparative process of the necrosis femoral head to increase the mRNA expressions of VEGF and BMP-2 in the femoral head.
【Abstract】 Objective To explore the correlation between pain grading, stage of necrosis and bone marrow edema(BME) in nontraumatic osteonecrosis of femoral head (NONFH) so as to strengthen understandings about cl inical significance of BME in NONFH. Methods From October 2004 to October 2006, 97 patients (149 hips) with NONFH were treated. There were 68 males and 29 femals with an average age of 38.8 years (19-62 years). The disease course was from 20 days to 4 years. BME was identified grade 0 to grade 2 according to MRI. Based on grading scale of pain, pain grading were divided into no pain (grade 0), mild pain (grade 1) and moderate or severe pain (grade 2). According to Association Research Circulation Osseous staging system, NONFH were divided into I-IV stages. The incidence rate of BME in each pain grading and stages of necrosis was analyzed respectively. Contingency table analyses and rank sum tests were used to compare the difference of pain grading and stages of necrosis among these groups. Results The total incidence rate of BME was 73.15% (109/149), the incidence rateswere 84.38% in pain groups (108 /128) and 94.12% in the grade 2 (32/34). Pain grading correlated with BME rating (P lt; 0.001).The results of rank sum tests for several independent samples showed significant difference in BME among pain groups(P lt; 0.001). With the advance of pain scale, the mean rank of BME increased gradually(28.19 for grade 0, 78.94 for grade 1 and 96.12 for grade 2). BME was more commonly and clearly seen in stage Ⅱ（77.05%）and stage Ⅲ（82.81%）of NONFH. Stage I-III of NONFH correlated with BME rating (P lt; 0.001). The results of rank sum tests showed significant difference in BME rating among three stages (P lt; 0.001). With the advance of disease, the rank of BME rating increased gradually (39.07 for grade 0, 60.16 for grade 1 and 86.15 for grade 2 ). Conclusion BME is a sign that is accompanied with NONFH. The probabil ity and extent of BME correlated well with the pain and stage of NONFH．The condition of BME can be used as a index for the appraisal of advancement of disease and the judgment of treatment result.
Objective To assess the effect of atraumatic restorative treatment (ART) on decayed deciduous and permanent teeth in children. Methods Such databases as CENTRAL of The Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, EMbase, CBM, CNKI, and VIP were searched, and the China clinical trial register center were also searched. The search was conducted by the end of April, 2009 to collect the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of ART vs. conventional restorative treatment (CRT) for childhood caries. The data extraction was performed by two reviewers independently. The quality of the included studies was critically assessed and the data analyses were performed by the Cochrane Collaboration’s RevMan 5.0.2 software. Results A total of seven randomized controlled trials were included. Only was the descriptive analysis conducted because of the difference of restorative materials used in each study, the types of target teeth, the measure indexes, and the year limit of follow up, which showed that, most of the included studies suggested that the survival rate of restorative materials in all types of caries hole was similar between the ART group and the CRT group; only a few studies suggested that the CRT group was superior to the ART group; the children in the ART group felt more comfortable than those in the CRT group during the treatment procedure; two studies compared the working time and got an opposite results. Conclusion Because of the higher clinical heterogeneity of the include studies, the merger analysis fails to be conducted, so it is impossible to get a precise conclusion about the effect of treating childhood caries with ART vs. CRT, and more RCTs with high quality are needed for confirmation.
Objective To analyze the value of serum levels of miR-141-3p, miR-130a, miR-29a-3p, and miR-210 in predicting early neurological deterioration (END) in non-traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage. Methods The patients with non-traumatic cerebral hemorrhage who met the selection criteria and were admitted to Chengde Central Hospital between February 2021 and October 2022 were prospectively selected by convenience sampling method. The serum miR-141-3p, miR-130a, miR-29a-3p, and miR-210 levels upon admission and the occurrence of neurological deterioration within 24 h were collected, and the patients were divided into a deterioration group and a non-deterioration group according to whether neurological deterioration occurred. The correlation of serum miR-141-3p, miR-130a, miR-29a-3p, and miR-210 levels with the END of non-traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage and their predictive value to the END of non-traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage were analyzed. Results A total of 235 patient were enrolled. Of the 235 patients, 45 (19.1%) showed neurological deterioration and 190 (80.9%) showed no neurological deterioration. The levels of miR-141-3p and miR-29a-3p in the deteriorating group were significantly lower than those in the non-deteriorating group [(1.11±0.32) vs. (1.76±0.51) ng/mL, P<0.001; (1.19±0.31) vs. (1.71±0.51) ng/mL, P<0.001], and the levels of miR-130a and miR-210 were significantly higher than those in the non-deteriorating group [(5.13±1.11) vs. (3.82±1.03) ng/mL, P<0.001; (3.96±0.76) vs. (2.78±0.50) ng/mL, P<0.001]. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that serum miR-141-3p and miR-29a-3p levels were protective factors for the occurrence of END in non-traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage patients [odds ratio (OR)=0.513, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.330, 0.798), P=0.003; OR=0.582, 95%CI (0.380, 0.893), P=0.013], and serum miR-130a and miR-210 levels were independent risk factors for that [OR=2.046, 95%CI (1.222, 3.426), P=0.007; OR=2.377, 95%CI (1.219, 4.638), P=0.011]. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.857 [95%CI (0.760, 0.954)] in predicting the END of non-traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage by the combined probability of the serum miR-141-3p, miR-130a, miR-29a-3p, and miR-210 levels obtained by logistic regression, and the sensitivity was 86.7%, the specificity was 94.7%, the positive predictive value was 79.6%, and the negative predictive value was 96.8% according to the cut-off value of the prediction probability of the combined test. Conclusion The combined detection of serum miR-141-3p, miR-130a, miR-29a-3p, and miR-210 has a high predictive value in the occurrence of END in non-traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage patients.
