截止至2002年5月,現有早產治療的臨床證據如下: (1) 高危早產:在一些國家實施的RCT發現,在降低早產危險方面,加強產前保健與普通產前保健沒有明顯差異.包括5個RCT的1個系統評價發現,對有宮頸改變的婦女行宮頸環扎術有不同的結果,沒有明確的結論.1個大樣本的RCT發現,孕9～29周宮頸功能可能不全的婦女進行預防性宮頸環扎手術與不環扎相比,能明顯降低早產(＜33孕周),但也會明顯增加產褥感染的危險.另外4篇較小樣本的RCT發現,孕10～30周、具各種早產高危因素的婦女,進行預防性宮頸環扎手術與不環扎相比,并不能降低早產(＜34孕周).1篇系統評價的2個RCT報告,對有宮頸改變的婦女進行環扎術有不同的結果,其中1個RCT發現其并不能明顯降低早產(＜34孕周),而另外1個較小樣本的RCT卻發現宮頸環扎手術加臥床休息與單純臥床休息比較,能明顯降低34周前的早產.沒有1個RCT證實行環扎術加臥床休息與單純臥床休息相比,能降低圍生兒死亡率. (2) 胎膜早破:1個系統評價發現,對胎膜早破的婦女,抗生素較安慰劑能明顯延長孕周、降低新生兒發病率的危險,如新生兒感染、出生后氧療、腦部超聲異常等.阿莫西林加克拉維酸治療與新生兒壞死性小腸結腸炎的發生率明顯增加有關.一個基于1個RCT的系統評價發現,沒有充足的證據證實羊膜腔灌注與不灌注比較能改善胎膜早破后的新生兒結局. (3) 先兆早產的治療:①β-腎上腺素興奮劑:1個系統評價發現,β-腎上腺素興奮劑與安慰劑或不治療相比,并不能明顯降低圍生兒死亡率、呼吸窘迫綜合征及低體重兒(＜2 500 g)發生率,且與與安慰劑或不治療相比,β-腎上腺素興奮劑增加孕母副反應,如胸痛、心悸、呼吸困難、震顫、惡心、嘔吐、頭痛、高血糖、低鉀血癥.②鈣離子通道拮抗劑: 沒有關于鈣離子通道拮抗劑與安慰劑比較的系統評價或RCT.1個系統評價發現,鈣離子通道抑制劑與其它保胎藥(主要是β-腎上腺受體興奮劑)比較,能顯著降低48 h內的早產分娩,減少因孕母副反應退出治療和新生兒發病率.③硫酸鎂:1個系統評價發現,硫酸鎂與安慰劑比較,并不能明顯降低孕36周前的早產率、圍生兒死亡率、呼吸窘迫綜合征的發生率.另一個系統評價發現,硫酸鎂和其他宮縮抑制劑(β-腎上腺素興奮劑、鈣離子通道拮抗劑、前列腺素合成抑制劑、硝化甘油、酒精和葡萄糖注射劑)比較,并不能明顯降低48 h內早產率(盡管結果沒有差異).④垂體受體拮抗劑(阿托西班):1個系統評價納入 2個RCT,對阿托西班和安慰劑治療早產進行比較有不同的結果.較大樣本的RCT發現,阿托西班較安慰劑能延長孕周,但阿托西班增加了孕28周以下的胎兒死亡率.另一個RCT發現,阿托西班增加了48 h內的早產.⑤前列腺素抑制劑(消炎痛):1個系統評價發現,消炎痛與安慰劑比較,能明顯降低孕37周前的48 h和7天的早產率的證據有限.然而,同時發現消炎痛與安慰劑或不治療相比,并不能明顯降低圍生兒死亡率、新生兒呼吸窘迫綜合征、肺支氣管發育不良、壞死性小腸結腸炎、新生兒敗血癥或低體重兒.但這個系統評價樣本太小,尚不能發現有臨床意義的差異. (4) 擇期或非擇期剖宮產對早產婦女治療效果:1個系統評價結果發現,擇期剖宮產較非擇期剖宮產會增加孕母的發病率,卻不能降低新生兒的發病率和死亡率.但尚不能證明此效果是否對新生兒有臨床意義. (5) 改善早產妊娠結局的干預措施:①對早產者采用皮質類固醇:1個系統評價認為,對可能發生早產的婦女使用皮質激素較安慰劑或不處理能明顯降低早產兒出生后呼吸窘迫綜合征、新生兒死亡率和顱內出血的發生.②促甲狀腺激素釋放激素在早產中的運用:1個系統評價發現,在早產的高危婦女中,促甲狀腺激素釋放激素和類固醇激素聯合應用與單用皮質類固醇激素比較,對新生兒結局的影響無明顯差異,但會明顯增加孕母和胎兒的不良反應.③抗生素:1個系統評價發現,抗生素與安慰劑比較,不能延長孕周、降低新生兒死亡率,但可降低孕母感染率.

Methods The origin, branches, anastomosis of nutritional vessels of sural nerve-great saphenous vein, and the relationof blood supply of tibia and soleus muscle were observed on 30 low limb specimens of adult cadaver, which were perfused with red gelatin to dissect from the artery. Results The nutritional vessels of sural nerve-great saphenous vein originated from: the saphenous artery 3-5 branches with a diameter of 0.7±0.4 mm；the cutaneous branches of medial inferior genicular artery, diameter of 0.7±0.2 mm；the intermuscular space perforating branches of posterior tibial artery 2-7 branches with a diameter of 1.0±0.2 mm，the internus halfside of the muscular branches nutrient soleus muscle；the perforating osteoseptocutaneous 1-2 branches with a diameter of 1.3±0.3 mm; the perforating branches of superior malleolus with a diameter of 0.6±0.2 mm; the perforating branches of medial anterior malleolus with a diameter of 0.8±0.3 mm. A vascularnetwork of 3 layers, which included periosteum, deep artery, and fascia nerve and superficial vein, was formed by those branches of deep artery, fascia branches, periosteum branches, and nerve-vein nutrition branches. Conclusion The nutritional vessels of saphenous nerve-great saphenous vein has the same origin as muscles, bones, and cutaneous nutritional vessels. It provides anatomic basis for the compound flap of distally-based saphenous nerve nutritional vessels.
Objective To observe the clinical features, the complications and treatment effects of intermediate uveitis. Methods The clinical data of 36 patients (66 eyes) with intermediate uveitis were retrospectively analyzed，including the clinical features, fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) features, complications，treatment effects and prognosis. The patients, 21 males and 15 females, aged from 8 to 70 years，with the mean age of 34.8 years. There were 30 cases with bilateral lesions and 6 cases with unilateral lesions. Results The main clinical manifestation were vitreous opacity, peripheral retinal venous lesions, optic disc edema, macular edema and posterior subcapsular cataract. The results of FFA showed that peripheral retinal venous lesions, optic disc hyperfluorescence, cystoid macular edema and retinal vein staining. After the treatment, the visual acuity of 31 cases（60 eyes，90.9%) were improved, 4 cases（5 eyes，7.6%) were stable and 1 case（1 eye，1.5%) was worsening. The main complications were cystoid macular edema, posterior subcapsular cataract and vitreous hemorrhage which leads to visual damage. Conclusions Intermediate uveitis was a common bilateral and chronic progressive intraocular inflammation，the anterior vitritis, pars plana and peripheral retinal vascular changes were mainly involved. Early diagnosis and proper treatment may prevent the permanent visual damage.
Objective To guide blood glucose management during pregnancy and reduce the incidence of long-term complications of the fetus by exploring the long-term growth condition of offspring of pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus. Methods A total of 180 cases full-term newborns of pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus from December 25th, 2011 to December 25th, 2012 were selected as the diabetes group. Another 200 newborns of pregnant women without any complications were randomly collected as the control group. Birth weight, gestational age, sex, blood glucose, and 24-, 48-, 72- and 120-hour transcutaneous bilirubin value after the birth of the newborns were recorded; weight, height, body mass index (BMI), triglycerides, total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein (HDL), low density lipoprotein, blood pressure and fasting plasma glucose quota between the two groups were contrasted when the children were three years old. Results There were no significant difference in the birth weight, gestational age and sex between the diabetic and the control group. The blood glucose levels of the newborns in the diabetic group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05). The 24-, 48-, 72- and 120-hour transcutaneous bilirubin values of the newborns in the diabetic group were significantly higher than those of the control group (P<0.05). The weight, height and BMI of the three years old offspring in the diabetic group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). There were no significant difference in triglycerides, total cholesterol, HDL, Low density lipoprotein, fasting plasma glucose quota, and systolic blood pressure between the diabetic group and the control group (P>0.05), but the diastolic blood pressure in the diabetic group was much higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion The impact of gestational diabetes mellitus on offspring of pregnant women was not only in the fetus and newborn period, but also in the future, which should be timely intervened.

Objective To investigate a change in the differentiation and biological function of the cultured rat fibroblast (FB) transfected by the myoblast determining gene (MyoD) and the connexin 43 (Cx43) gene and to explore the possible mechanism of the MyoD and Cx43 genes on treatment of ischemic heart disease (IHD). Methods The gene cloning technology was used to construct the eukaryotic expressed plasmid vector pLenti6/V5-DEST-MyoD and pLenti6/V5DEST-Cx43 in which MyoD cDNA or Cx43 cDNA was inserted. The RFL-6 FB cells were transfected with exogenetic MyoD cDNA or Cx43 cDNA via lipofectamine, followed by the Blasticidin (50 μg/ml) selection, according to the lentiviral expression system (ViraPower) protocol. The expression and the biological functions of MyoD and Cx43 in the transfectants were testified by RT-PCR, Western blot, and molecular and immunocytochemical methods. The mophological structure changes of the cells were observed under microscope before and after the transfection. Results The expression of MyoD and Cx43 was detected in the MyoD and Cx43 genes transfected FB with RT-PCR and Western blot. The immunocytochemical methods indicated the expressionsof the MyoD and Cx43 genes, while desmin and αactin were found in these cells. The myotubes were found from the cultures incubated a week in the differentiation medium, in which the transfected cells had a characteristic of the filamentsin their cytoplasm and showed a myoblast morphology. Conclusion MyoD cDNA can induce the cultured FB to differentiate into the myoblasts and Cx43 cDNA can enhance the gap junctional intercellular communication between the cell and the cell. Thus, a further experimental foundation for the therapy of IHD can be provided.
Objective To study the changes of blood flow of the already-compressed cauda equina under dynamic burden, high frequency stimulation (HFS) and increased additional compression, and to clarify the mechanism of neurogenic intermittent claudication. Methods Thirty SD rats were divided into 5 groups, 6 in each. All groups were operated with laminectomy of the fifth lumbar verfebra. One hour after the measurement of blood flow,in 4experimental groups, the silicon sheets were inserted into the spinal canal of L4 and L6 to cause double level compression of cauda equina by 30%. Two hours after onset of compression, no dynamic burden was introduced to the subjects of the experimental group 1. Only HFS was introduced to the subjects of the experimental group 2 for 6 minutes. Both HFS and increased additional compression were introduced to the subjects of the experimental group 3 for 6 minutes. While only increased additional compression was introduced to the subjects of the experimental group 4 for 6 minutes. The subjects of control group only underwent laminectomy of the fifth lumbar vertebra and HFS 6 minutes. The blood flow of cauda equina was measured with laser Doppler flowmeter. Results In the first 2 hours, there was no significant change of cauda equina blood flow in the control group. During the time of HFS, the blood flow increased significantly to 186.4%±31.5% of initial value (Plt;0.05). In the experimental group 1, there was no blood flow change during the period of dynamic burden（110.4％±7.5％，Pgt;0.05）. After introduction of dynamic burden, there was no blood flow changes in the experimental group 2 (111.6％±17.6％，Pgt;0.05). The blood flow in the experimental group 3 decreased to 65.3%±10.7% of initial value (Plt;0.05); and the blood flow in the experimental group 4 decreased to 60.1%±9.2% of initial value (Plt;0.01). There was no significant difference between the experimental groups 3 and 4 (Pgt;0.05). Conclusion The results above show that during the period of increased impulse transmission, double level compression of cauda equina may limit the increase of blood flow, which maycause relative ischemia. If there is increased additional compression along with increased impulse transmission, the blood flow will decrease significantly, which will cause absolute ischemia.
Objective To investigate the short-term effectiveness of reconstruction plate internal fixation via improved Stoppa approach combined with iliac fossa approach and Kocher-Langenbeck approach for complex acetabular fractures. Methods Between January 2015 and January 2020, 30 patients with complex acetabular fractures were treated with reconstruction plate internal fixation via improved Stoppa approach combined with iliac fossa approach and Kocher-Langenbeck approach. There were 20 males and 10 females with an average age of 52.1 years (range, 25-71 years). The cause of injury included traffic accident in 17 cases and falling from height in 13 cases. Among them, 14 cases were left acetabular fractures and 16 cases were right acetabular fractures. According to Letournel classification, there were 16 cases of double column fractures, 2 cases of transverse fracture with posterior wall fracture, 4 cases of anterior column and posterior hemi-transverse fractures, 8 cases of T-shaped fracture. The displacement distance of fracture ranged from 6 to 30 mm (mean, 11.6 mm). The time from injury to operation was 6-14 days (mean, 8.7 days). Results The operation time was 2.0-4.5 hours (mean, 3.0 hours). The intraoperative blood loss was 200-800 mL (mean, 450.0 mL). All patients were treated with autologous blood transfusion during operation. All incisions healed by first intention after operation, and no infection occurred. All patients were followed up 12-15 months (mean, 13.4 months). The drainage tube was removed at 2-3 days after operation. After extubation, X-ray film and three-dimensional CT were performed to recheck the fracture reduction. According to Matta score system, 20 cases were excellent, 5 were good, and 5 were poor, the excellent and good rate was 83.3%. All fractures healed with the healing time of 16-25 weeks (mean, 17.7 weeks). According to Merle d’Aubigne-Postel score system, the hip function at 1 year after operation was rated as excellent in 18 cases, good in 6 cases, and fair in 6 cases, and the excellent and good rate was 80.0%. Two cases suffered from sciatic nerve injury due to traction during operation, 7 cases had heterotopic ossification, 2 cases had traumatic hip arthritis, and no other complications occurred. Conclusion For complex acetabular fractures, the reconstruction plate internal fixation via improved Stoppa approach combined with iliac fossa approach and Kocher-Langenbeck approach can obtain good short-term effectiveness with good reduction and hip joint function, and less complications.
Objective To explore the clinical therapeutic value of pancreatoduodenectomy in patients with carcinoma of ampulla of Vater (AVC). Methods The clinical data of 195 patients with AVC between March 1995 and March 2009 in this hospital were analyzed retrospectively. All the patients were divided into non-surgery group (n＝51), palliative surgery group (n＝96), and resection group (n＝48) according to the treatment methods. Results The 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year survival rates in the resection group were higher than those in the non-surgery group and the palliative surgery group (Plt;0.01). However, the incidence of complications in the resection group was higher than that in the nonsurgery group or the palliative surgery group (Plt;0.05). The radical resection rates, 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year survival rates of carcinomas of head of pancreas were significantly lower than those of carcinomas of the terminal of common bile duct or carcinomas of duodenal papilla (Plt;0.05, Plt;0.01). There was no significant difference of the perioperative mortality, complications rate, 1-year, 3-year, or 5-year survival rate between preoperative drainage jaundice group and preoperative nondrainage jaundice group (Pgt;0.05). The perioperative mortality in the resection group above the age of 70 years old was higher than that of less than or equal to 70 years old （Plt;0.05）. Compared with the non-surgery group or palliative surgery group, there were significant increasement of the incidence of serious or deadly perioperative complications in the resection group (Plt;0.05). Conclusions Surgical resection remains one of the most important measures of the treatment of AVC, in particular, the radical pancreatoduodenectomy is the only effect way for AVC, thus significantly prolonging the patient’s postoperative survivals and significantly improving the qualities of life.
Objective To investigate the method and effectiveness of repairing fingertip defects with reverse island flappedicled with terminal dorsal branch of digital artery with sense reconstruction. Methods Between December 2008 and March2010, 32 patients (40 fingers) with fingertip defects were treated. There were 20 males (23 fingers) and 12 females (17 fingers), aged from 20 to 62 years (mean, 42 years). The time between injury and admission was from 1 to 8 hours. The injured fingers included thumb (2 cases), index finger (6 cases), index finger and middle finger (3 cases), middle finger (7 cases), middle finger and ring finger (3 cases),ring finger (8 cases), ring finger and little finger (2 cases), and little finger (1 case). The defect area ranged from 1.2 cm × 1.0 cm to 2.2 cm ×1.8 cm, and the flap area ranged from 1.5 cm × 1.0 cm to 2.5 cm × 2.0 cm. The fingertip defects were repaired by the reverse island flaps pedicled with terminal dorsal branch of digital artery and branch of digital nerve, and the branch of digital nerve was anastomosed withstump of proper digital nerve. The donor sites were repaired with free skin grafts. Results Bl isters occurred in 6 cases (9 fingers) andpartial necrosis of the flaps in 2 cases (2 fingers), which were cured after symptomatic treatment. The other flaps and skin grafts survived and the wounds healed by first intention. Thirty cases (38 fingers) were followed up 6 months postoperatively. The shape, contour of the reconstructed fingertip, and motivation of the fingers were satisfactory. The superficial sensation and deep pain sensation recovered after 6 months of operation. The two-point discrimination was 4-6 mm in 24 fingers, 7-10 mm in 13 fingers, and none in 1 finger. According to the functional assessment criteria of upper l imb formulated by the Hand Surgery Branch of Chinese Medical Association, S3 was achieved in 1 finger, S3+ in 13 fingers, and S4 in 24 fingers. Conclusion It is simple and safe to harvest the reverse island flap pedicled with terminal dorsal branch of digital artery with sense reconstruction; at the same time, the blood supply of the flap is rel iable and its sense can be reconstructed. It is one of effective methods for repairing fingertip defects.
