ABSTRACT
Objective: To evaluate the effects of surgical navigation technique in the reconstruction of traumatic orbital wall defect.Methods: 20 patients underwent the operation with the aid of navigation for repairing traumatic orbital wall defect as the test group. 20 patients were treated without navigation as the control group. Treatment outcome was evaluated by correction of exophthalmos, orbital volumes and patient's self-satisfaction. Results: The mean difference of eyeball protrusion between the reconstructed and the unaffected orbit cavity in the navigation group and control group was (0. 81 ± 0. 35) mm and (1. 65 ± 0. 37) mm (P ＜ 0. 05), that of the orbital volume (0. 68 ± 0. 29) ml and (0. 98 ± 0. 22) ml (P ＜ 0. 05), respectively. The patient's satisfaction value of the navigation group was higher than in the control group (P ＜ 0. 05) . The operation duration in the navigation group was less than in the control group (P ＜0. 05) . Conclusion: Surgical navigation can improve the accuracy and the effects of operation for orbital defect reconstruction.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To explore pulse characteristic of the health female college students and their relationship with menstrual cycle. Methods: The subjects were 17 female college students of Jiangxi University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Pulse test was performed with pulse bracelet. The detection time was every day in the wake and has not yet get up and wake up at any time before going to bed with a pulse-taking bracelet, and recorded the current menstrual cycle information. The pulses of the wake that has not yet get up and wake up at any time before going to bed took consistency analysis of the record with Kruskal Wallis Test. The pulse of menstruation stage analysis was compared with chi-square test. Results: The pulses of the wake that has not yet get up and wake up at any time before going to bed consistency was poor except rapid pulse (P＞ 0.05) . The occurrence frequency of slippery pulse and string-like pulse were 55.21％ and26. 03％ respectively. The pulses of premenstrual period, post menstrual period and menstrual period were not much different from others. The occurrence frequency of moderate pulse, string-like pulse, unsmooth pulse, slippery pulse in intermenstrual period respectively were 40.68％, 44.07％, 30.51％, and 40.68％. The occurrence frequency of moderate pulse, string-like pulse, unsmooth pulse, slippery pulse in-non intermenstrual period respectively were 17.38％, 24.69％, 10.45％, 56.30％. The difference was significant (P ＜ 0.05) . Conclusion: The female college students are mainly in terms of slippery pulse. The occurrence frequency slippery pulse in intermenstrual period respectively are less common. The string-like pulse, moderate pulse, unsmooth pulse in intermenstrual period are more common than in-non intermenstrual period.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To analyze the characteristics of the healthy state of TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) of female, and preliminarily constructs the model of TCM health status identification of female with menstrual cycle. Methods: The text of disease diagnosis and syndrome differentiation of menstrual-cycle-linked disorders from Guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of common disease of gynecology in Traditional Chinese Medicine was analyzed, and the symptoms related with viscera functions, the waxing and waning of qi and blood, and pathogenic properties were extracted. The questionnaires of diseases and syndrome elements differentiation of female by calculating the weight relationship between symptoms and health status were designed to estimate the interior state of waxing and waning of yin-yang by figuring out the different periods of menstrual, and in the last step, Constitution in Chinese medicine Questionnaire was used to identify the constitution. Through the above four identification methods, a comprehensive identification of the female's health status of TCM was formed. Results: Through the disease identification model, we distinguished the state of disease and yet disease. And through the syndrome elements differentiation model, we knew the viscera functions, the waxing and waning of qi-blood and yin-yang, and pathogenic properties. And by identifying the internal qi-blood and yin-yang status, we initially built the model that can identify health status of female integrally with the constitution. Conclusion:The model identification results can reflect the comprehensive health status of female in multiple dimensions. It can make a fine classification of women.s TCM health status. It can not only help to know the previous health status but also help to speculate the future health trend, which contributes to the formulation of personalized health interventions of follow-up.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To study the links between chronic pyelonephritis (CPN) and immune function, and the action mechanism of Yishenkang granule on CPN. METHODS: A total of 120 CPN cases were randomly assigned to Yishenkang granule group, Sanjing tablet group and western medicine group, which were compared with healthy control group. The levels of the peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets, serum immunoglobulin, complement, secretory IgA in urine and the cell factor IL-2 in CPN cases before and after treatment were detected by monoclonal antibody method, agar diffusion method, radioimmunoassay, radioimmune balancing method and compared with those in healthy control group. RESULTS: In CPN cases compared with healthy control group, the levels of serum immunoglobulin, complement, secretory IgA in urine were significantly lower while the level of cell factor IL-2 were significnatly higher (P
