Objective To investigate infertile inpatients hospitalized in Pingjin Hospital in Tianjin from 2008 to 2010, so as to provide baseline data for further research. Methods According to diagnosis criteria of WHO, we collected demographical characteristics, disease cause and cost constitution of infertility inpatients hospitalized in Pingjin Hospital in Tianjin from 2008 to 2010. The data of each patient were input into ACCESS database and SPSS 13.0 was used for statistical analysis. Results a) From 2008 to 2010, there were 1 452 infertile patients from 33 different areas of mainland China, 79.7% of which was from the north of China. b) The mean age was 31.2±4.3 years old. The percentage of patients aged 30 to 34 years accounted for the most (40.3%). Mental laborers (23.3%) were more than physical laborers (7.2%). 36.7% of patients received education from universities and 83.1% of patients had family income ranging from 20,000 yuan to 190,000 yuan. c) The mean age of the first sexual activity was 21.4±2.9 years old. 53.7% of patients had only one sexual partner and most couples had sexual activities twice every week. The mean age of husbands was 32.9±5.5 years old with the highest percentage of 30 to 35 years old (39.2%). The percent of intellectual work of husband was the highest (35.9%). 64.9% of patients had normal semen analysis results and 23.0% never took related examination. d) 29.9% of patients was primary infertility and 70.1% was secondary infertility, of which 57.6% had either induced or medical abortion. The mean duration of infertility was 5.2±3.5 years (range 1 to 21 year). e) 76.3% of infertile patients had pelvic adhesion and 88.6% suffered from tubal disease. Among the tubal infertile patients, 23.6% had uterine disease, 5.2% had ovarian disease, 5.0% had endometriosis, 6.7% had multiple problems, and 4.8% had unexplained infertility. In patients with tubal infertility, the incidence of distal fimbria atresia (45.8%) was higher than that of proximal block (32.9%). 24.7% of patients with fimbria atresia had hydrosalpinx and among of them, 21.1% had no hydrosalpinx. 15.2% had congenital tubal defects. f) The average hospital stay was 10.5 days and the cost was 14 253.3 yuan per person. The percentage of material cost was 29.1% and that of drugs was 18.2%. Conclusion a) The total number of infertile inpatients was 1 452 in gynecology department of Pingjin Hospital of Tianjin from 2008 to 2010. 79.7% of patient was from North China. Most of them were 30 to 34 years old and 44.3% had no job. The percentage of patients had university education and that of low-middle family income was the highest. Sexual activity was relatively traditional. Most husbands were 30 to 35 years old and intellectual workers, and 23.0% of them had never taken an examination of semen analysis. More patients were secondary infertile, and the duration of infertility was 1 to 21 years. b) 76.3% of patients had pelvic adhesion and 88.6% had tubal disease. The incidence of distal tubal fimbria atresia was higher than proximal tubal occlusion. c) The average hospital stay was 10.5 days and the cost was 14 253.3 yuan per person which was further lower than each cycle cost of assisted reproductive technology. The overall costs included materials and drugs (47.3%), which were mainly at patients’ own expense.
Twenty-one patients(male 18 cases,femal 3 cases)died of primary liver cancer after operation are reviewed.The liver tumors were located in the right lobe(13 cases),left lobe(3 cases),middle position of liver(4 cases)and hepatic hilum(1 cases).The average diameter of the tumors were 9.0cm.All the patients had suffered from liver cirrhosis and were operated on (most of them partial hepatectomy).The times of death were about 7 days,7-14 days later after operation.The data suggest that causes of death were different from the different stage after operation.The relations between partial hepatectomy and hepatic failure,and the liver cirrhosis and liver regeneration are discussed.
Serum concentration of follicularstimulating hormone(FSH),lutenizing hormone(LH),prolactin（PRL），estradio(E2),erstriol(E3) and progesterong(P) of 56 women with gallstones and 53 other female patients were measured by radioimmunoassqy.It was found that the levels of serum estrogen were not only in reproductive aged or postmenopausal women, but also in women with or without gallstones. So it is not certain of the relation between estrogen and gallstone from this study.
Objective To analyze death causes and relevant factors in victims of Wenchuan earthquake．Methods Medical records of 27 dead patients admitted to W est China Hospital during the first 30 days after Wenchuan earthquake were analyzed retrospectively．Patient census data，diagnoses，dispositions，and prognoses were collected． Results A total of 2702 patients with earthquake related injuries were admitted to West China Hospital．The overall mortality rate was 1％(27／2702 patients)．The death were associated with age≥70．severe cerebral injuries and severe underlying illness．Mortality rate was highest in aged patients with comorbidities．Conclusions Insufficient pre-hospital treatment and inappropriate transfer procedure may contribute to the early death．Complicated with comorbidities is the leading cause of late death．Earlier involvement of intensivist in medical intervention in such a disaster is demanded．
To investigate the causes and the cl inical treatment methods of postoperative wound compl ications following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Methods From June 2005 to August 2008, 486 cases (576 knees, including 314 left knees and 262 right knees) underwent primary TKA using standard midl ine incision and medial parapatellar arthrotomy. There were 146 males (172 knees) and 340 females (404 knees) aged 51-86 years old (average 61.3 years old). The duration of disease was 3-35 years. Primary diseases included: 138 cases (156 knees) of rheumatoid arthritis, 282 cases (348 knees) of osteoarthritis, 46 cases (49 knees) of traumatic arthritis, 20 cases (23 knees) of pigmented villonodular synovitis. The factors of etiology, deformity correction, duration of tourniquet use and wound drainage were analyzed to determine the cause of postoperative wound compl ication. Results Postoperatively, 37 cases (43 knees) had wound compl ications and the rate of incidence was 7.5%, including 13 cases (15 knees) of aseptic exudation, 3 cases (4 knees) of fat l iquefaction, 4 cases (4 knees) of subcutaneous hematoma, 8 cases (9 knees) of flap margin necrosis, 6 cases (7 knees) of superficial infection, 3 cases (4 knees) of red swollen joint with increased skin temperature and deepinfection. All 37 patients recoveried after symptomatic treatment. Among those 37 cases, patients with rheumatoidarthritis had a higher incidence rate of wound compl ication than the patients with other primary diseases (P lt; 0.05). Theincidence rate of patients with deformity correction more than or equal to 20 degree was significantly higher than that ofother patients (P lt; 0.05). The duration of using tourniquet was (86 ± 15) minutes for patients with wound compl ication,and (78 ± 8) minutes for patients without wound compl ication, indicating there was a significant difference (P lt; 0.01).Wound compl ication occurred in 22 knees (5.1%) with autologous blood transfusion absorber, 11 knees (11.5%) withnegative pressure attraction, and 10 knees (19.2%) receiving no drainage. The incidence rate of postoperative woundcompl ication in patients without drainage was obviously higher than that in patients with drainage (P lt; 0.05). ConclusionPatients with rheumatoid arthritis are more l ikely to have wound compl ication after TKA. Postoperative wound drainage and short duration of tourniquet appl ication help decrease the incidence of compl ications. It is necessary to make early definitive diagnosis of postoperative wound compl ication, and provide proactive treatment.
One hundred and thirty patients with uveitis in north-western zone of our country were analyzed based on anatomical classification and their causes. It was found that anterior uveitis was the commonest type in uveitis,accounting for 86.15% of total patients. Intermediate uveitis, pan-uveitis and posterior uveitis accounted repectively for 6.92%, 3.85%and3.08% of the total patients. Rheumatic arthritis was the most frequently accompanied systemic disease in patients with uveitis,showing a possibly causative link between them in their pathogenesis. （Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1994,10:156-158）
Objective To retrospectively analyze the characteristics and death causes among the Wenchuan earthquake victims in The Third People’s Hospital of Chengdu so as to provide information for reducing mortality in future earthquake disasters. Methods The analysis was based on the data provided by the Department of Information, the Medical Record Library, and the Emergency Room of the hospital through July 12. Microsoft EXCEL was used for data input and SPSS 13.0 was used for statistical analyses. Results Through July 12, 9 (1.57%) out of the 575 wounded patients died, comprising 3 males and 6 females. Of those, 5 died in the outpatient department. The death causes were all related to severe cerebral injuries. The other 4 died in the inpatient department and the death causes were related to severe underlying illnesses and infection. Conclusion Screening and early treatment for cerebral injuries is very important in the period directly following the earthquake. Later, more attention should be paid to the treatment of underlying illnesses as well as the prevention and control of infection.

Methods 127 cases were reviewed from gender, age, manner of injury, survival time and the direct causes of death from January 1998 to December 2008. Results Of the 127 cases, the key direct cause of death was secondary brainstem damage, followed by severe primarily brain injury and complications. For those who died within 12 hours after injury, the direct cause was severe primarily brain injury; for those who survived between 12 hours to one week, secondary brainstem damage was in the majority of the causes and for those who survive more than one week time, complication was an important cause. Conclusion In the cases of traumatic brain injury, we should take comprehensive and systematic examination of forensic pathology, and refer to clinical data at the same time to determine the direct cause of death.
