Objective To systematically review the efficacy of poly-L-lactide (PLLA) material treatment versus titanium plates treatment for mandibular fractures. Methods We searched the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, Chinese Journal Full-text Database, VIP Database, and Wanfang Database to collect literatures about randomized or non-randomized controlled trials using PLLA treatment (the trial group) versus titanium plates treatment (the control group) for mandibular fractures in the last ten years (from January 2007 to March 2017). The quality evaluation and data extraction were carried out by 2 reviewers independently and analyzed by Review Manager 5.3 software. Results A total of 8 literatures including 453 patients with mandibular fractures were included in this Meta-analysis. There was no significant difference in total complications between the two groups [odds ratio (OR)=0.98, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.55, 1.75), P=0.95], including dislocation healing [OR= 0.96, 95%CI (0.46, 2.01), P=0.90], occlusal disturbance [OR=1.53, 95%CI (0.61, 3.87), P=0.37], infection [OR=0.63, 95%CI (0.23, 1.74), P=0.37], and secondary operation [OR=0.46, 95%CI (0.17, 1.27), P=0.14]. Conclusion There is no significant difference between PLLA and titanium plate in the treatment of mandibular fractures.
目的 探讨囊性脑膜瘤的磁共振表现、表观弥散系数（ADC）图的影像特点、ADC值与病理分级的关系及ADC值对判断不同病理亚型脑膜瘤的价值。 方法 回顾性分析2003年3月－2007年12月18例经病理证实的囊性脑膜瘤患者的磁共振表现，其中男8例，女10例，平均年龄45.6岁。在ADC图上分别测量肿瘤实质、瘤周水肿、囊变区的平均ADC值（均取4～6个区域，取平均值），比较不同病理亚型、不同病理分级的肿瘤实质、瘤周水肿、囊变区的ADC值差异是否有统计学意义。 结果 良恶性脑膜瘤肿瘤实质ADC值差异无统计学意义（P＞0.05）；囊性脑膜瘤各亚型间的肿瘤实质、瘤周水肿的ADC值差异无统计学意义（P＞0.05）；肿瘤实质、囊变区与瘤周水肿平均ADC值相比差异均有统计学意义（P＜0.05）。 结论 ADC值可区分肿瘤实质、囊变区及瘤周水肿，但对脑膜瘤亚型及良恶性的甄别需结合常规MRI与增强的征象。Objective To explore the MRI imaging manifestation, features of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) map and the relationships among ADC value, pathologic grading and pathologic subtype of cystic meningioma. Methods The clinical data of 18 patients (8 males and 10 females, with an average age of 45.6 years) with cystic meningiomas confirmed by pathologically examination were retrospectively analyzed. The ADC values of tumor parenchyma, peritumoral edema, cystic regions and the contralateral normal brain of the tumor parenchyma were measured and analyzed.The ADC value of the tumor parenchyma, peritumoral edema, cystic region were measured and then compared with the pathological findings. P value of less than 0.05 was considered as having a statistically significant difference. Results There was no significant difference in ADC values between benign and malignant meningioma and also among the tumor parenchyma, periedema and cystic region in different pathological subtypes. The difference in ADC values amongst tumor parenchyma, peritumoral edema and cystic region were statistically significant (P＜0.05). Conclusions Although ADC quantitative measurement allows the differentiation of the tumor parenchyma, cystic region and peri-edema, it is need to combined with conventional MR examination to assess tumor malignancy as well as grading in cystic meningioma.
【摘要】 目的 探讨磁共振动态增强扫描及磁共振弥散加权成像（diffusion weighted imaging，DWI）对肝癌经导管动脉内化学栓塞（transcatheter arterial chemoembolization，TACE）治疗后的肿瘤残余及复发的判断价值。 方法 2009年1月-2010年10月，对28例经证实的肝癌患者在TACE治疗前、治疗后3~7 d及治疗后1~2个月、3~6个月行磁共振动态增强及DWI扫描，动态测量表观弥散系数（apparent diffusion coefficient，ADC）值，与数字减影血管造影（digital substraction angiography，DSA）检查对照，评价动态增强扫描及DWI对肿瘤残留或复发的检出能力。〖HTH〗结果 对肿瘤残余及复发的显示，动态增强扫描灵敏度为90.0%，特异度为96.9%；DWI灵敏度为96.7%，特异度为93.8%；动态增强扫描与DWI相结合的灵感度为100.0%，特异度为99.5%；DSA灵敏度和特异度分别为96.7%、100.0%。TACE治疗前所有肿瘤实质的ADC值为（1.134±0.014）×10-3 mm2/s；TACE治疗后3~7 d ADC值为（1.162±0.016）×10-3 mm2/s；TACE治疗后1~2个月碘油沉积较好，无明显残余或复发病灶的ADC值为（1.175±0.015）×10-3 mm2/s，3~6个月后随访病灶ADC值为（1.179±0.017）×10-3 mm2/s；TACE治疗后1~2个月碘油沉积不完全或无明显沉积病灶ADC值为（1.147±0.016）×10-3 mm2/s，3~6个月后随访病灶实质平均ADC值（1.142±0.012）×10-3 mm2/s。 结论 将动脉增强扫描与DWI相结合可提高对TACE治疗后肝癌残余及复发判断的灵敏度及特异度；对肿瘤组织平均 ADC值的动态测量、观察可及早判断肿瘤复发的可能性。【Abstract】 Objective To evaluate the dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) in judging the remnant and recurrence on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE). Methods Between January 2009 and October 2010, 28 patients with HCC underwent dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and DWI before and after TACE 3-7 days, 1-2 months and 3-6 months, respectively, and the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value of the tumor were also measured at above mentioned time points. The sensitivity and specificity of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and DWI in diagnosis of residual tumor and recurrent cancer was qualitatively evaluated by comparing with the DSA results. Results Compared with DSA, the sensitivity and specificity of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI were 90.0% and 96.9% by revealing the remnant and recurrence of HCC, while the sensitivity and specificity of DWI were 96.7% and 93.8% respectively. Combining dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and DWI the sensitivity and specificity were improved to 100.0% and 99.5%, respectively. The mean ADC value of tumor before and after 3-7 days of TACE were (1.134±0.014)×10-3 and (1.162±0.016)×10-3 mm2/s, respectively. The mean ADC value of tumor without and with remnant and recurrence after 1-2 months and 3-6 months follow up were (1.175±0.015)×10-3, and (1.179±0.017)×10-3 mm2/s; (1.147±0.016)×10-3 and (1.142±0.012)×10-3 mm2/s, respectively. Conclusions Combining dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI and DWI could improve the sensitivity and specificity to detect the remnant and recurrence of HCC after TACE. Measuring the ADC value during follow up of HCC patients after TACE could predict the probability of tumor recurrence.
目的 探讨脑胶质瘤术后不同时期的MRI增强表现，客观分析其术后的手术切除程度。 方法 2009年2月－2012年10月32例脑胶质瘤患者均在术后1 d～2周进行第1次MRI平扫及增强扫描（其中21例在术后3 d内进行检查），术后1～3个月随访复查21例，术后6～12个月随访复查18例，术后1～3年MRI随访16例。分析不同时期的MRI平扫及增强表现，以期发现正确评价手术切除程度的指标。 结果 术后3 d内行MRI增强检查仅有4例出现反应性强化，肿瘤残余有7例，结合其影像学表现可较准确地区分术后反应性强化及肿瘤残余。 结论 胶质瘤术后早期（3 d内）进行MRI增强检查可准确评价肿瘤术后切除程度，便于制订下一步治疗计划。
Objective To explore the perioperative safety of video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) in Day Care Unit and the risk factors for delayed discharge under centralized management model. MethodsThe patients with VATS managed by the Day Care Unit of the Drum Tower Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing University Medical School in 2021 were retrospectively collected. The patients’ postoperative data and risk factors for delayed discharge were analyzed. ResultsA total of 383 patients were enrolled, including 179 males and 204 females with an average age of 46.09±14.82 years. Eleven (2.87%) patients developed grade 3-4 postoperative complications during the hospitalization. Eighteen (4.70%) patients visited unscheduled outpatient clinic within 7 days, and 6 (1.57%) patients were re-hospitalized within 30 days after discharge. The remaining patients had no significant adverse events during the 30-day follow-up. The average length of hospital stay was 2.27±0.35 d. The length of hospital stay was over 48 h in 48 (12.53%) patients. The independent risk factor for delayed discharge was lobectomy or combined resection (OR=3.015, 95%CI 1.174-7.745, P=0.022). ConclusionVATS can be safely conducted under the centralized management in Day Care Unit. The risk factor for delayed discharge is the extent of surgical resection.
