To evaluate the efficacy and safety of comprehensive prophylaxis for deep venous thrombosis(DVT) after proximal femur fractures in geriatric patients. Methods From July 2003 to May 2006, 157 geriatric patients with proximal femur fractures treated with operation were divided into prophylaxis group and control group randomly. There were 82 patients (34 males, 48 females, aged 65-97 years) in prophylaxis group, 30 with femoral neck fracture and 52 with intertrochanteric fracture of femur. There were 75 patients (33 males, 42 females, aged 65-94 years) in control group, 28 with femoral neck fracture and 47 with intertrochanteric fracture of femur. In the prophylaxis group, comprehensive prophylaxis for DVT which included Aspirin, fibrinolytic enzyme, passive and active circumduction of the foot and ankle, CPM management wasappl ied. In the control group, no thromboproxylaxis was taken. All patients in the both groups received color doppler flow imaging (CDFI) examination before operation and on the 7th and 14th days after operation. Results CDFI found 2 cases of DVT in the prophylaxis group 7 and 14 days after operation respectively, while 21 and 15 cases of DVT in the control group respectively. The incidence of DVT was 48.0% in the control group compared with 4.9% in the prophylaxis group and the reduction was significant (P lt; 0.01). One patient gave up the intervention due to Melena 3 days after operation in the prophylaxis group. In the control group, 1 patient died 8 days after operation and another died 11 days after operation. Both died of acute pulmonary embol ism confirmed by autopsy. Conclusion The comprehensive prophylaxis can significantly decrease the incidence of DVT in geriatric patients after proximal femur fractures. There is no significant adverse effect during the intervention.
目的 探討胰性腦病的可能的發病機制、發病情況及防治措施.方法 計算機檢索中文科技期刊全文數據庫(1989~2004),收集有關胰性腦病的臨床研究,并進行統計分析.結果 共納入43篇文獻,435例患者.胰性腦病在重癥急性胰腺炎中的發病率遠高于輕癥急性胰腺炎;發病年齡趨向中、老年;病死率為43.67%;病因仍以膽系疾病為主;伴發低氧的幾率不高于未并發胰性腦病患者.結論 胰性腦病的發生可能是多因素共同作用的結果,仍需進一步探討其發病機制.血清髓鞘堿性蛋白有望成為有價值的診斷指標.防治以治療原發病急性胰腺炎為主,重在預防.胰酶抑制劑和早期營養支持有一定預防作用.
In post-coronavirus disease 2019 era, people’s style of work and life have undergone major changes. The sedentary style of work and life, such as long-time office work, online meetings, home eating, online social interactions, and reduced range of activities, affect people’s physical and mental health. Neck and shoulder pain is one of the common symptoms. By combining the clinical practice experience of orthopedic medical experts in West China Hospital of Sichuan University, and reviewing a large number of literatures, this article summarized the definition, incidence, hazards, causes, evaluation and prevention of neck and shoulder pain in post-coronavirus disease 2019 era. It aimed to provide experience for the prevention and treatment of neck and shoulder pain in post-coronavirus disease 2019 era.
ObjectiveTo summarize the prevention and treatment of iatrogenic medial collateral ligament (MCL) injuries in total knee arthroplasty (TKA).MethodsThe relevant literature about iatrogenic MCL injuries in TKA was summarized, and the symptoms, causes, preventions, and treatments were analyzed.ResultsPreventions on the iatrogenic MCL injuries in TKA is significantly promoted. With the occurrence of MCL injuries, the femoral avulsion can be fixed with the screw and washer or the suture anchors; the tibial avulsion can be treated with the suture anchors fixation, bone staples fixation, or conservative treatment; the mid-substance laceration can be repaired directly; the autologous quadriceps tendon, semitendinosus tendon, or artificial ligament can be used for the patients with poor tissue conditions or obvious residual gap between the ligament ends; the use of implant with greater constraint can be the last alternative method.ConclusionNo consensus has been reached to the management of iatrogenic MCL injuries in TKA. Different solutions and strategies can be integrated and adopted flexibly by surgeons according to the specific situation.
Objective To determine whether antibiotic prophylaxis can reduce the risk of postoperative bacteriuria in men undergoing transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) who have sterile preoperative urine. Method MEDLINE, EMBASE and Cochrane Library were searched for RCTs comparing antibiotic prophylaxis and placebo/blank controls for men undergoing TURP with preoperative sterile urine. The search strategy was established according to the Cochrane Prostatic Diseases and Urologic Cancers Group search strategy. Data was extracted by two reviewers using the designed extraction form. RevMan were used for data management and analysis. Results Fifty three relevant trials were searched, of which 27 trials were included and 26 were excluded. Antibiotic prophylaxis significantly decreased the rate of post-TURP bacteriuria.The pooled relative risk (RR) and 95% confidence interval were 0.36 (0.28, 0.46). Conclusions Prophylactic antibiotics could significantly decrease the incidence of post-TURP bacteriuria. Further comparative RCTs and cost-effective should be performed analysis to establish the optimal antibiotic regimes for the benefit of patients undergoing TURP.
The latest global big data evidence indicated the changes of skin and venereal disease burden was huge. HIV/AIDS disease burden was the heaviest diseases among all skin and venereal diseases, and its skin manifestation was serious. The evidence of skin manifestation was searched and classified by subjects such as clinical symptoms, diagnosis & treatment, nursing, etc. The results showed, that the skin manifestation of HIV/AIDS with high incidence was serious, atypical, difficult to cure which was easy to misdiagnose or miss diagnosis. After analyzing the global HIV/AIDS guidelines, we found that many high quality guidelines with widely-covered subjects were produced by developed countries, while quite a few low quality and ones with narrowly-covered subjects were produced by developing countries. Only one guideline was for treatment of HIV/AIDS skin lesion. Based on the current evidence, we call for that all healthcare professionals to increase their awareness, update knowledge, and joint in cooperative prevention and treatment of HIV/AIDS. We also call for that we should produce high quality primary evidence for clinical diagnosis and treatment of HIV/AIDS skin manifestation, and clinical practice guidelines based on good evidence. For the increasing heavy burden of skin and venereal diseases, we should adjust and expand research directions, enrich and improve new interdisciplinary knowledge. We also should constantly train professionals and spread out knowledge in public on prevention and treatment for skin manifestation, so as to transform the evidence in time, effectively protect medical staff and susceptible population, effectively prevent and treat this disease, and improve the satisfaction of our country, hospitals and patients.
Objective To search evidence of angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitors for microalbumin-uria in type 2 diabetes for guiding clinical practice. Methods We searched MEDLINE ( 1970 -Jun. 2005 ) to identify randomized controlled trials (RCT)of the effect on angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitors to prevent microalbuminuria in type 2 diabetes. Results One RCT (n =1 204)was identified. The result showed that angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitors were significantly more effective in prevention of microalbuminuria than other medicines in type 2 diabetes. However, angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitors may increase the risk of cardiac mortality. We explained the evidence to patients and they were satisfied with our explanation. Conclusions Angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitors can decrease the incidence of microalbuminuria in patients with type 2 diabetes and hypertension.
