ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the application value of F wave by comparison with quantitative sensory testing(QST)and nerve conduction studies(NCS)in diabetes peripheral neuropathy (DPN). Methods Three hundred and fourteen diabetic patients with symptom of DPN were retrospectively analyzed, who were recruited and divided into four groups according the course of diabetes mellitus: ≤ 3 years group, 4-6 years group, 7-9 years group and >9 years group. The abnormal rates of QST, NCS and F wave were analyzed and compared. Results At earlier course of disease (≤ 3 years group, 4- 6 years group), the abnormal rate of QST [76.54%(62/81), 91.67% (88/96)]>F wave[(48.15%(39/81),64.58%(62/96)]>NCS[(32.10%(26/81),47.92%(46/96)], and there were significant differences(P<0.01).The abnormal rate of QST, F wave and NCS at 7-9 years group and>9 years group had no significant differences(P>0.05).The abnormal rate of QST in 4-6 years group[(91.67%(88/96)]was higher than that in≤3 years group[(76.54%(62/81)],and decreased in 7-9 years group and >9 years group. The abnormal rate of NCS was increased with course of disease, and the range was obviously between close together group. The abnormal rate of F wave was increased with course of disease,but in 4-6 years group the range was obvious and the range was slow down.At earlier course of disease (≤3 years group, 4-6 years group), the abnormal rate of only F wave significantly increased the abnormal rate of NCS + F wave from 30.86%(25/81), 44.79% (43/96)to 46.91%(38/81), 61.46%(59/96)respectively, but in 7-9 years group and>9 years group, the abnormal rate of only F wave increased the abnormal rate of NCS + F wave from 69.44%(50/72), 84.61%(55/65)to 72.22% (52/72),86.15%(56/65).Conclusions Although the abnormal rate of F wave is not as high as QST, it is still remarkable. Detection of F wave shows positive correlations with the course of disease, which can reflect the course of disease objectively and reliably.The added F wave detection can distinctly raise the abnormal rates on the base of NCS.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the early analgesic effects of continuous femoral nerve block analgesia (CFNB) and patient controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) and their effects on functional recovery after total knee arthroplasty.Methods Retrospective analysis was conducted on 60 ASA Ⅰ and ASA Ⅱ patients with unilateral total knee arthroplasty in our hospital from January 2014 to January 2015.The patients were divided into two groups,CFBN group (treatment group) and PCIA group (control group),with 30 patients in each group.VAS scores of postoperative ipsilateral knee resting and movement pain,range of postoperative knee joint motion (ROM),muscle strength of femoral quadriceps,incidence rates of adverse reaction within 7 days after operation,HSS score 3 months before and after the operation,and discharge time were observed.Results Postoperative VIS score in CFNB group was lower than that in PCIA group.ROM and muscle strength of femoral quadriceps in CFBN group were better than those in PCIA group on day 1,2,3,5,and 7 after the operation.Postoperative adverse reaction rate within 7 days in PCIA group was significantly higher than that in CFNB group.HSS score three months after the operation in CFNB group was higher than that in PCIA group.Discharge time of CFNB group was significantly earlier than that of PCIA group (P＜0.05).Conclusion Compared with PCIA analgesia,CFNB analgesia shows better analgesic effect.It can alleviate early knee joint pain after TKA,increase joint motion,significantly shorten the hospitalization time,promote joint exercises which are effective in functional rehabilitation,and decrease the incidence of adverse reactions like nausea and vomiting.

ABSTRACT
Objective To provide a scientific basis for early clinical diagnosis and treatment as well as secondary and tertiary protection through 10 years inquiry of multiple organ failure in the elderly(MOFE).Results Among 153 MOFE cases,the first inducement of 89.5%(137/153) patients was infection,among which 93.4% (128/137) was pulmonary infection.The vertical percentage of the first failure organ was as follows: pulmonary (39.0%,60/154),heart (19.5%,30/154),brain (14.9%,23/154),kidney (10.4%,16/154),alimentary canal (8.4%,13/154),liver (6.5%,10/154);while the horizontal percentage was as follows: pulmonary (42.9%,60/140),heart (40.9%,56/137),kidney (32.6%,30/92),brain (21.9%,23/105),alimentary canal ( 14.5%,9/62).The survival time of the first organ failure from shortness to length was as follows: pulmonary,brain,heart,kidney.Conclusions Most MOFE cases have pulmonary failure at first.The organs failure sequence is pulmonary,heart,brain and kidney in order.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the expression and significance of survivin,an apoptotic suppressor gene,in craniopharyngioma. Methods Fifty specimens were collected from patients with craniopharyngioma admitted in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from 2000 to 2005. By using immunohistocbemistry (S-P) method, the expression of survivin in craniopharyngioma was detected. The results were analyzed quantitatively by using digital image analysis. Results Survivin positive expression was observed in craniopharyngioma but not in normal brain tis-sue. There was more expression of survivin in adamantinomatous craniopharyngiomas than in squamous papillary types( P = 0.036 ) , in male than in female (P = 0.002 ), in children ≤ 16 years than in adults > 16 years, and in re-current group than in non-recurrent group( P = 0.011 ). There was no significant difference among different properties of craniopharyngioma ( P = 0. 057 ), and different courses of disease ( P = 0. 083 ). Conclusions Survivin may be considered as a significant index for assessment of tumor recurrence.
ABSTRACT
This study investigated whether the curative effect of short-pulse gastric electrical stimulation (GES) on the vasopressin-induced dyspeptic symptoms was mediated by central opioid peptide-producing neurons. Five female beagle dogs implanted with 1 pair of electrodes in gastric serosa were used in a two-experiment study. In experiment one, the brain was scanned by positron emission tomography in 3 dogs with and without short-pulse GES, and the radioactivity in nuclei of solitary tract (NST) and hypothalamus was detected. Experiment two was composed of 4 sessions. In session one, the dogs were injected with vasopressin in the absence of short-pulse GES. With session two, the short-pulse GES was simultaneously given via the electrodes with the injection of vasopressin. In sessions three and four, naloxone and naloxone methiodide was administered respectively in the presence of short-pulse GES. Motion sickness-like symptoms were scored and compared among the different sessions. The results showed that the short-pulse GES significantly increased the radioactivity in NST and hypothalamic nuclei (P<0.05, vs control). The short-pulse GES could ameliorate the vasopressin-induced motion sickness-like symptoms in dogs. Naloxone, but not naloxone methiodide could attenuate the curative effects of short-pulse GES. It is concluded that NST and hypothalamic nuclei may participate in the mediation of the curative effects of short-pulse GES on dyspepsia-like symptoms. Central opioid peptide-containing neurons presumably mediate the therapeutic effect on dyspeptic symptoms of short-pulse GES.
