ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the correlation between lumbar degenerative disease and bone mineral density in postmenopausal women.Methods:A total of 97 patients with postmenopausal lumbar degenerative degeneration who were admitted to our hospital from Jan. 2019 to Mar. 2022 were selected for study, and the average bone mineral density of L1-L4 vertebral bodies was measured by lumbar dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) . BMD T values divided them into normal bone mass (group A, n = 28) , low bone mass (group B, n = 30) and osteoporosis group (group C, n = 39) . All patients underwent lumbar spine MRI, and the degree of lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration (L1/2, L2/3, L3/4, L4/5, L5/S1) was evaluated by the Pfirrmann grading system, and the relationship between lumbar spine degeneration and bone loss was analyzed. density relationship.Results:In this study, the incidence of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women was 40.21%. The ages of group A, group B and group C were (66.08±4.05 vs 56.78±3.97 vs 52.34±3.17) years, respectively. Menopause time was (14.05± 2.08 vs 8.04±2.04 vs 4.06±1.02) years, respectively. BMI was (22.02±1.68 vs 24.05±1.52 vs 26.47±1.67) kg/m2, respectively. The menopause time and age of group C were significantly longer than those of group A and B (P<0.05) , the BMI of group C and B was significantly lower than that of group A, and the BMI of group C was significantly lower than that of group B, with statistical significance (P < 0.05, Table 1) . Group A, group B and group C lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration score: L1/2: (1.80±0.47) points, (2.25±0.48) points, (2.62±0.58) points, L2/3: (1.97±0.44 vs 2.49±0.51 vs 2.97±0.47) points, L3/4: (2.61±0.22 vs 2.97±0.34 vs 3.96±0.25) points, L4/5: (3.45±0.32 vs 3.78±0.34 vs 3.88±0.24) points, L1/S1: (3.52±0.46 vs 3.77±0.52 vs 3.97±0.47) points, L5/S1: (2.64±0.43 vs 3.05±0.52 vs 3.34±0.74) points, the mean values of L1/2, L2/3, L3/4, L1-S1 and disc degeneration scores in groups C and B were higher than those in group A ( P<0.05) , and the scores in group C were higher than those in group B ( P<0.05) . L4/5 and L5/S1 disc degeneration scores in group C were higher than those in group A ( P<0.05) , there was no statistical significance between group C and group B ( P>0.05) , there was no statistical significance between group B and group A ( P>0.05) , and there was statistical significance between group B and group A in L4/5 lumbar disc degeneration scores ( P=0.018) . The L5-S1 lumbar disc degeneration score was significantly different among the three groups ( P=0.012) . BMD was positively correlated with BMI, and negatively correlated with menopause time, age, L1/2, L2/3, L3/4, L4/5, L5/S1 and L1-S1 intervertebral disc degeneration degree. Conclusion:In postmenopausal women, BMD was negatively correlated with menopause time, age, and degree of lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration, and was positively correlated with BMI. The lower the BMD, the more severe the lumbar degenerative disease.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To observe the value of tracer methodology combined case-based study (CBS) model in the standardized residency training of medical record writing.Methods:A total of 91 residents who were newly recruited from The Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University in July 2019 were selected as the subjects and randomly divided into test group ( n=47) and control group ( n=44). The tracer methodology combined CBS model was used for test group while the traditional model was used for control group to compare the knowledge of medical record writing, performance of medical record writing and feedback to teaching in two groups. SPSS 21.0 was used for t test and chi-square test. Results:The correct response rate in knowledge of medical record writing, the normative scores and integrity scores after training were significantly higher than those before training ( P<0.05). The normative and integrity scores were significantly increased after training, and those in the test group were significantly higher than those in the control group [(90.3±3.5) and (91.3±3.2) vs. (88.6±3.5) and (89.8±3.0), P<0.05, respectively]. The test group was significantly superior to the control group in the autonomous learning ability [97.8% (44/45) vs. 82.9% (34/41)], communication ability [95.6% (43/45) vs. 78.0% (32/41)] and acceptance of teaching form [97.8% (44/45) vs. 82.9% (34/41)] ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The tracer methodology combined CBS model is a good way in the pre-job training of medical record writing for residents, which can mobilize the subjective initiative of the trainees and teachers, complete the teaching tasks and obtain better teaching value.
ABSTRACT
Objective Comparing the efficacy of endoscopic balloon dilatation and endoscopic stricteroto-my for postoperative anastomotic stenosis of colorectal cancer. Methods Retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of patients with postoperative anastomotic stenosis of colorectal cancer that underwent anastomotic dilatation from 2013 to 2016,and analyzed the anastomotic stenosis before and after treatment,and compared the efficacy of the two groups of dilatation methods. Results There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in baseline characteristics. Balloon dilatation was effective in 3 cases(23.1%),ineffective in 10 cases(76.9%). 7 cases(63.6%)were effective in the stricterotomy group,4 cases(36.4%)were ineffective,the difference was statistically significant(P=0.045).Two groups of patients were not bleeding after surgery,infection and perfora-tion and other complications. Conclusion Endoscopic stricterotomy of postoperative anastomotic stenosis of colorectal cancer is more effective than conventional endoscopic balloon dilatation
