ABSTRACT
Facial trauma in pediatric population predisposes the child to injury of both the developing skeleton and dentition. This article aims to highlight the experience of the authors through a case report, in using self-drilling screws for fixation of mandibular fractures in pediatric age group. The use of self-drilling screws minimizes the complications such as thermal and/or mechanical damage to the developing dentition and the bone. They also provide significant advantages including ease of availability and technique, superior anchorage with primary stability, and minimizing or avoiding permanent damage to the developing tooth germs in the site of fracture. The use of self-drilling screws for mandibular open reduction and internal fixation in children is an easy, reliable, and safe technique which may have significant value addition in preventing inadvertent injury to the developing tooth germs.
ABSTRACT
Background: Anovulatory infertility is caused by polycystic ovarian syndrome in 80 percent of patients. Preconception guidelines, such as lifestyle modification (weight loss) to avoid fetal neural tube abnormalities, and quitting smoking and drinking alcohol, are all part of the early treatment. A clomiphene citrate medication for timed intercourse is the first-line pharmacological treatment for producing ovulation. Exogenous gonadotropins or laparoscopic ovarian surgery are two options for second-line pharmaceutical treatment (ovarian drilling). Ovulation induction using clomiphene citrate or gonadotropins is effective, with a 70 % cumulative live birth rate. When laparoscopy is necessary, ovarian drilling should be done; this operation is usually successful in around half of the instances. Finally, when the previous interventions have failed, a high-complexity reproduction treatment (in vitro fertilization or intracytoplasmic sperm injection) is recommended. There is no evidence that metformin should be used routinely in the treatment of infertility in anovulatory women with polycystic ovary syndrome. Aromatase inhibitors show promise, but more research is needed to confirm their safety.Methods:This study was conducted in Department of gynecology and obstetrics, Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Dhaka, from January 2019 to December 2019. A total number of 100 patients with multiple myeloma were analyzed cytogenetically by interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (iFISH). The collected data were analyzed by using the Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS-24) for windows version 24.0.Conclusion:PCOS is a frequent syndrome and the most frequent cause of infertility. PCOS is defined as a syndrome with at least two of three of the Rotterdam criteria. A complete evaluation of the infertility is needed to exclude other causes of infertility..
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effect of drilling and drainage based on spiral CT-guided on hematoma clearance and serum inflammatory factors levels in patients with basal ganglia region hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage.Methods:A total of 112 patients with basal ganglia region hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage admitted to Lanling County People′s Hospital from May 2017 to February 2020 were selected as the research objects, and 56 patients performed traditional craniotomy(craniotomy group), and 56 patients used spinal CT to locate the hematoma area and puncture point before the surgery, and performed drilling and drainage according the scanning results (drilling group). The operation conditions, hematoma volume changes and hematoma clearance rate in two groups were compared. The levels of neuron-specific enolase (NSE), specific protein S100B, interleukin(IL)-17, IL-1β and C-reactive protein (CRP) in two groups before and after the treatment for 1 month were compared. The scores of National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and Barthel Index Scale(BI) in two groups before and after the treatment for 3 months were compared.Results:The operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage volume in the drilling group were lower than those in the craniotomy group: (1.21 ± 0.28) h vs. (2.43 ± 0.37) h, (131.98 ± 39.51) ml vs. (231.64 ± 47.65) ml, (41.05 ± 5.68) ml vs. (62.93 ± 7.83) ml; the hematoma clearance rate in the drilling group was higher than that in the craniotomy group: (89.57 ± 6.15)% vs. (77.95 ± 5.92)%, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). After treatment for 1 month, the levels of S100B, NES, IL-17, IL-1β, CRP in the drilling group were lower than those in the craniotomy group: (0.49 ± 0.18) μg/L vs. (0.67 ± 0.24) μg/L, (15.32 ± 1.67) μg/L vs. (17.61 ± 1.59) μg/L, (147.38 ± 14.86) ng/L vs. (172.59 ± 12.94) ng/L, (84.17 ± 10.48) ng/L vs. (107.43 ± 9.35) ng/L, (33.78 ± 4.77) mg/L vs. (47.01 ± 4.15) mg/L, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). After treatment for 3 months, the scores of NIHSS in the drilling group was lower than that in the craniotomy group and the scores of BI in thedrilling group was higher than that in the craniotomy group: (3.57 ± 2.13) scores vs. (7.83 ± 2.96) scores, (84.56 ± 8.16) scores vs. (67.43 ± 6.95) scores, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). The complication rate in the two groups had no statistically differences ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Compared with traditional craniotomy, the drilling and drainage based on spiral CT-guided on hematoma clearance has the advantages of shorter operation time, less injury, better regulation of inflammation and better improvement of neurological function.
ABSTRACT
RESUMEN Los desechos derivados del proceso de perforación en las plataformas marinas petroleras pueden dejar hasta 200 000 toneladas de residuos de perforación en los ecosistemas marinos. El principal agente contaminante son los lodos de perforación petrolera (LPPs), que son usados para enfriar y lubricar la broca de perforación, además de contrarrestar fuerzas de presión y posibles fugas de hidrocarburos. Se sabe que los LPPs tienen un efecto contaminante y tóxico observándose alteraciones en los ecosistemas y efectos adversos en organismos invertebrados marinos, debidos principalmente a la presencia de barita y trazas de metales pesados. En este trabajo se realizaron experimentos de exposición hiperagudos con mezclas completas de lodos de perforación base agua (WBM) a máximos niveles de concentración en colonias de Hydractinia symbiolongicarpus. Los resultados mostraron cambios significativos (p < 0,001) en la morfología de los pólipos inmediatamente después del contacto con WBM, con un incremento 1,5 veces en el diámetro del pólipo y una retracción en la longitud de los tentáculos del 75 %. Después de la exposición (fase de recuperación), se observó una disminución de biomasa a las 72 h con pérdida del 50 % de los pólipos y una reducción de la mata estolonal cercana al 50 % (p < 0,01). Efectos similares han sido reportados en otras especies de cnidarios, como los corales, donde se observó retracción de pólipos y zonas expuestas de exoesqueleto. La exposición a WBM genera irritación tisular en exposición directa y en casos severos pérdida de biomasa.
ABSTRACT Wastes derived from the drilling process on offshore oil platforms can leave up to 200 000 tons of cuttings in marine ecosystems. The principal pollutants in cuttings are drilling muds (DM). The DM are used to cool and lubricate the drill bit, counteract pressure forces and possible hydrocarbon leaks. DM contaminate the marine environment and have toxic adverse effects upon marine invertebrate organisms, mainly due to the presence of barite and traces of heavy metals. In this research, hyperacute exposure experiments were performed with complete mixtures of water-based drilling muds (WBM) at maximum concentration levels in Hydractinia symbiolongicarpus colonies. Results showed significant changes (p < 0.001) in polyp morphology immediately after contact with WBM, with a 1.5-fold increase in its diameter and a 75 % of retraction in the length of the tentacles. A biomass loss was observed after exposure (recovery phase). Near 50 % of polyps and stolonal mat were bioabsorbed with statistical significance (p < 0.01) at 72 h. Similar effects have been reported in other species of cnidarians, such as corals, where there is retraction of polyps and exoskeleton exposed areas also observed. Exposure to WBM generates tissue irritation and extreme cases loss of biomass.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the therapeutic effect of skull drilling and/or grinding combined with artificial dermis and vacuum sealing drainage in repairing scalp defects with skull exposure.Methods:From October 2014 to May 2018, 18 patients with scalp defect and skull exposure were treated in the Department of Burn and Plastic Surgery, the Second Clinical College of North Sichuan Medical College, including 10 males and 8 females, with an average age of 64 years (range, 34-86 years). The patients were divided into two groups: group A (by drilling skull or/and grinding combined with artificial dermis cover and vacuum sealing drainage plus two split thickness skin graft repair) and group B (by drilling skull or/andgrinding combined with artificial dermis cover plus two covering leather grinding stage split thickness skin graft repair), 9 cases in each group. The head wound granulation tissue, postoperative complications, skin graft survival rate and wound healing time were compared between the two groups. Vancouver scar assessment scale (VSS) was used to evaluate the wound healing in the two groups.Results:The time of granulation cultivation in group A and group B was (16.44±1.42) days and (29.11±13.32) days, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05); The wound healing time of group A and group B was (26.00±3.32) days and (40.67±14.37) days, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05); The postoperative complications of group A and group B were 1 case and 5 cases respectively, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The skin graft survival rates of group A and group B were (97.11±3.44)% and (95.00±4.74)%, the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05); The wound scar VSS scores of group A and group B were (7.67±1.32) points and (8.78±1.99) points, the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Conclusions:By drilling skull and/or grinding combined with artificial dermis cover and vacuum sealing drainage and two stage split thickness skin graft for repairing scalp defect with skull exposure wound can not only better scalp defect with skull exposure wounds, and reduce the postoperative complications, and significantly accelerate wound healing, but also can effectively improve the quality of wound healing, which is worthy of clinical application.
ABSTRACT
Objective To make drilling mechanical and thermal analysis of bones with different drill bits and drilling parameters, so as to reduce the drilling force and drilling temperature in drilling process and decrease the damage to surrounding bone tissues. Methods The bone drilling model was established by finite element simulation software AdvantEdge. By comparison with the pig femur drilling experiment, the simulated and experimental results of standard twist driII and three standard multi-facet drills at different speeds and feed rates were analyzed. Results The simulation and experiment comparison showed that the influences of driII bit structure, drilling speed, feed rate on drilling force and drilling temperature were consistent, and the established simulation model was credible. Conclusions Under the same drilling conditions, the multi-facet driII for drilling rubber had lower drilling force and drilling temperature than the standard twist drill. The research findings provide theoretical basis for the application of multi-facet driII in fracture surgery.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: To delay the further aggravation of early femoral head necrosis, drilling decompression of the femoral head is a better treatment method. However, traditional trepanation and decompression of the femoral head is traumatic. OBJECTIVE: To compare the difference in the effect between robot-assisted drilling decompression and traditional surgery for aseptic necrosis of femoral head. METHODS: Forty patients with aseptic necrosis of the femoral head were included for retrospective comparative analysis. According to the treatment plan, they were divided into two groups. Eighteen cases (26 femoral heads) in the robot group were treated with drilling decompression assisted by robots. Among them, 13 cases (18 femoral heads) were in Ficat stage I and 5 cases (8 femoral heads) were in Ficat stage II. The traditional surgery group consisted of 22 patients (29 femoral heads). Among them, 15 patients (19 femoral heads) were in Ficat stage I and 7 patients (10 femoral heads) in Ficat stage II. Incision, times of intraoperative fluoroscopy, intraoperative blood loss, times of intraoperative puncture and operation time were compared between the two groups. Harris score was used before and 1, 3, and 6 months after operation to evaluate the hip effect. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) All cases were followed up for 6 months. (2) Incision, times of intraoperative fluoroscopy, intraoperative blood loss, times of intraoperative puncture and operation time were better in the robot group than in the traditional surgery group (P 0.05). (4) Compared with the traditional surgery, robot-assisted drilling decompression has no obvious advantage in the treatment of aseptic necrosis of the femoral head. However, its operation incision is small; the number of intraoperative fluoroscopy is small; the trauma is small; and the operation is safer and minimally invasive.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of hand-transmitted vibration on the subjective symptoms of mine drilling workers. METHODS: A total of 117 mine drilling workers exposed to hand-transmitted vibration were selected as the exposure group, and 46 workers without hand-transmitted vibration exposure were selected as control group by judgment sampling method. The Occupational Epidemiology Questionnaire of Mine Drilling Workers was used to investigate their subjective symptoms. RESULTS: The prevalence of tinnitus, hearing loss, cough and sputum in the exposure group was higher than that in the control group(P<0.05). The occurrence rate of numbness, tingling, self-reported white fingers and cold hands in the exposure group was higher than that in the control group(P<0.05). The total rate of symptoms of hand in the exposure group was higher than that in the control group(38.5% vs 21.7%, P<0.05). The multivariate logistic regression analysis results indicated that hand-transmitted vibration exposure and service length were risk factors of abnormal hand symptoms(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Occupational hand-transmitted vibration exposure can affect the hand subjective symptoms of mine drilling workers, and the length of service is a synergistic influencing factor.
ABSTRACT
Background: Implant success and survival rate ranges from 93% to 97%; however, failures are not very uncommon. These failures can be caused due to a variety of reasons out of which increased heat during drilling of osteotomies is a major contributor.Aim: The aim of this study was to develop a new generation diamond-coated drill and compare the thermal changes between commercially available drills and the experimental diamond coated drill during implant site preparation in artificial bone. Material and Methods: Three types of drills were selected for the study; Group A (Carbide), Group B (Stainless Steel), and Group C (Experimental). A total of 60 implant site preparations were performed with all the drills in artificial bone using a surgical unit linked to a testing device, in order to standardize implant drilling procedures. Bone temperature variations were recorded when drilling at a depth of 10 mm. A constant irrigation of 50 ml/minute and drilling speed of 800 r.p.m. was maintained. Results: The mean temperature of Group A, Group B, and Group C was 35.57°C, 36.83°C and 34.23°C, respectively. The results were assessed and statistically analyzed using ANOVA test and post hoc Bonferroni test. Statistically significant higher temperatures were obtained with stainless steel drill and carbide drill when compared with the experimental diamond coated drill. (P = 0.000). Conclusions: Diamond coated osteotomy drills have shown promising results in reducing heat generation at the osteotomy. Further studies need to be conducted to maximize the potential use of diamond as components of drills in implant dentistry.
ABSTRACT
Background: To evaluate the result after medical treatment and laparoscopic ovarian drilling in PCOS patients and to compare the results of these two methods.Methods: In this prospective study 50 women with polycystic ovarian disease, were divided into two group,25 women received medical treatment and 25 women received surgical (laparoscopic ovarian drilling) treatment. Effect of treatment on ovulation, menstruation, fertility and androgen level was determined 3 month after therapy.Results: There was significant increase in ovulation and fertility, decrease in androgen levels and decrease in LH/FSH in individual groups when compared with pretreatment levels but difference between groups A and B was not statistically significant for these parameters.Conclusions: Medical treatment and laparoscopic ovarian drilling are equally effective in treating the women of polycystic ovarian disease. Result of both the treatment are similar in this study. However medical treatment should be the first line therapy, it has significant benefit for use in OPD, low cost, no hospital stays and convenience to the patient.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To explore the safeties and efficacies of temporal cortex approach, transsulcus or fissure microsurgery and drilling drainage in the treatment of the patients with supratentorial hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (SHICH), and to provide the references for choosing the operation methods for the SHICH patients. Methods: Th e clinical materials of 118 patients with SHICH were collected and were divided into temporal cortex approach group (cortex group, n=39), transsulcus or fissure microsurgery group (fissure group, n=31) and drilling drainage group (drilling group, n=48) according to their different operation methods. The age, hematoma volumes, Glasgow Coma Scale Score (GCS), time from onset to operation, hematoma clearance rates, improvement rates 24 h after operation, rebleeding rates after operation, intracranial infection rates, survival rates, and good prognosis rates of the patients in three groups were recorded. Results: The hematoma clearance rate, improvement rate, survival rate and good prognosis rate of the patients in fissure group were significantly higher than those in cortex group (P0. 05). There were no statistically significant differences in the prognosis indexes (hematoma, GCS, survival rate, and good prognosis rate) of the patients between 30-49 mL and 50-69 mL subgroups in fissure group and drilling group. The age of patients in 50-69 mL subgroup in drilling group was significantly higher than that in fissure group (P< 0. 05). Conclusion: The efficacies and prognosis of SHICH patients treated by transsulcus or fissure microsurgery and drilling drainage are better than those by temporal cortex approach. Drilling drainage is more suitable to the old patients with above moderate hematoma; and transsulcus or fissure microsurgery is more suitable to the patients with massive hematoma.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To analyze the characteristic change of fingertip vibrotactile perception threshold(VPT) at two different frequencies among mine drilling workers. METHODS: A total of 48 mine drilling workers exposed to hand-transmitted vibration for at least 1.0 year were selected from mines in Hubei Province as the vibration exposure group by using the random number table method, and workers without hand-transmitted vibration exposure were selected as the control group. An HVLab vibrotactile perception meter was used to measure the fingertip VPT at 31.5 and 125.0 Hz in workers of these two groups. RESULTS: None of the workers in these two groups showed any clinical symptoms associated with occupational hand-arm vibration diseases. At 31.5 and 125.0 Hz, the fingertip VPT in the vibration exposure group was higher than that in the control group(P<0.01), the fingertip VPT of the little fingers was higher than that of the index fingers(P<0.01). At 125.0 Hz, the fingertip VPT of the fingers in dominant hands was higher than that in non-dominant hands in workers of the vibration exposure group(P<0.01). CONCLUSION: The mine drilling workers with hand-transmitted vibration exposure had higher fingertip VPT. There were differences of VPT in fingers and dominant hands.
ABSTRACT
As implant site preparation and bone are critical precursors to primary healing, thermal and mechanical damage to the bone must be minimized during the preparation of the implant site. Moreover, excessively traumatic surgery can adversely affect the maturation of bone tissue at the bone/implant interface and consequently diminish the predictability of osseointegration. So, this study was carried out to evaluate the various biological and mechanical factors responsible for heat generation during osteotomy site preparation to reduce the same for successful osseointegration of dental implants. Study Design: A broad search of the dental literature in PubMed added by manual search was performed for articles published between 1992 and December 2015. Various bio-mechanical factors related to dental implant osteotomy preparation such as dental implant drill designs/material/wear, drilling methods, type of irrigation, and bone quality were reviewed. Titles and abstracts were screened and articles which fulfilled the inclusion criteria were selected for a full-text reading. Results: The initial database search yielded 123 titles, of which 59 titles were discarded after reading the titles and abstracts, 30 articles were again excluded based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, and finally 34 articles were selected for data extraction. Many biological and mechanical factors responsible for heat generation were found. Conclusion: Literatures of this review study have indicated that there are various bio-mechanical reasons, which affect the temperature rise during osteotomy and suggest that the amount of heat generation is a multifactorial in nature and it should be minimized for better primary healing of the implant site.

ABSTRACT
In recent years, the virtual surgery training system with force feedback has provided a new way for young doctors to improve their surgical skills in a safe, efficient and flexible training method. Precise drilling force and realistic hand feeling of manipulation are the cruxes in the virtual surgery training, and the accurate simulation of bone drilling depends on the accurate establishment of drilling force prediction model. The establishment of force prediction model with finite element analysis is the key part in the development of virtual training system. In this paper, the current research status of finite element analysis of bone drilling presented in four aspects: bone model reconstruction, material model, mesh model and prediction of drilling force, especially the construction of bone tissue material model is discussed in detail and several important models are analyzed. This paper presented a relatively complete overview of the approaches commonly used in this research field to promote the establishment of more accurate force prediction models of bone drilling.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of carbon dioxide (CO2) versus high-frequency electroacupuncture based on the assistance of drilling and blunt dissection in the treatment of steatocystoma multiplex.Methods A randomized,self-controlled study was performed in 15 patients.The median line of the body served as the dividing line,and the lesions on the two sides of the median line of the body were randomly divided into 2 groups to be treated with CO2 laser or high-frequency electroacupuncture,which left micropathways into the cyst cavity.After the above treatment,contents in the cysts were squeezed out or drawn out with a mosquito clamp,and the cysts were bluntly dissected.The decrustation time,erythema subsiding time,adverse reactions and recurrence were compared among lesions at different sites or with different sizes.Results For the lesions at the same sites or with similar sizes after treatment,the decrustation time and erythema subsiding time were both significantly shorter in the CO2 laser group than in the high-frequency electroacupuncture group (both P ＜ 0.05).There were significant differences in the decrustation time and erythema subsiding time among lesions at different sites or with different sizes (all P ＜ 0.05).Mild pain occurred in the 2 groups,and no hematoma or secondary infection occurred.There were significant differences in the incidence of scar formation or pigmentation between the 2 groups (both P ＜ 0.05).During the follow-up of 6-18 months,relapse occurred in 1 patient in each group.Conclusion Compared with the high-frequency electroacupuncture,CO2 laser assisted by drilling and blunt dissection shows better efficacy in the treatment of steatocystoma multiplex,and it can remove lesions at various sites at one time.

ABSTRACT
This study was designed to evaluate the effects of drilling through the growth plate and using adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) and bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) to treat femoral head epiphyseal ischemic necrosis,which can be done in juvenile rabbits.Passage-four bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU)-labeled ADSCs were cultured,assayed with MTT to determine their viability and stained with alizarin red dye to determine their osteogenic ability.Two-month-old,healthy male rabbits (1.2 to 1.4 kg,n=45) underwent ischemic induction and were randomly divided into five groups (group A:animal model control;group B:drilling;group C:drilling & ADSCs;group D:drilling & BMP-2;and group E:drilling & ADSCs & BMP-2).Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI),X-ray imaging,hematoxylin and eosin staining and BrdU immunofluorescence detection were applied 4,6 and 10 weeks after treatment.Approximately 90％ of the ADSCs were labeled with BrdU and showed good viability and osteogenic ability.Similar results were observed in the rabbits in groups C and E at weeks 6 and 10.The animals of groups C and E demonstrated normal hip structure and improved femoral epiphyseal quotients and trabecular areas compared with those of the groups A and B (P＜0.01).Group D demonstrated improved femoral epiphyseal quotients and trabecular areas compared with those of groups A and B (P＜0.05).In summary,drilling through the growth plate combined with ADSC and BMP-2 treatments induced new bone formation and protected the femoral head epiphysis from collapsing in a juvenile rabbit model of femoral head epiphyseal ischemic necrosis.

ABSTRACT
La colangiografía retrograda endoscópica (CPRE) es una técnica invasiva que permite diagnosticar y tratar patologías de vía biliar. La tasa de complicaciones es baja volviendo al procedimiento seguro, no exento de complicaciones como pancreatitis, sangrados, colangitis e incluso perforación (incidencia menor al 1,5%). Se presenta el caso clínico de un paciente de sexo masculino, con dolor en hipocondrio derecho, vómito y fiebre que presenta dilatación del extremo distal del colédoco por causa litiásica evidenciado por colangioresonancia. Se programa para CPR intentándose la canulación sin papilotomía; durante el procedimiento el paciente presenta enfisema subcutáneo y neumotórax a tensión ameritando tratamiento de emergencia. Se decide manejo quirúrgico a las doce horas de la CPRE por la marcada inestabilidad hemodinámica del paciente; en el intraoperatorio y en una endoscopia ulterior no se evidenció una lesión macroscópica que justifiquen la clínica e imágenes radiológicas que presentó el paciente. Se realiza tratamiento quirúrgico de perforación duodenal que obligó una estancia en terapia intensiva durante 11 días. Se complementa con una revisión bibliográfica de las complicaciones post CPRE.

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERCP) is an invasive technique that allows diagnosing and treating pathologies of the bile duct. The rate of complications is low returning to the safe procedure, not free of complications such as pancreatitis, bleeding, cholangitis and even perforation (incidence less than 1.5%). We present the clinical case of a male patient, with pain in the right hypochondrium, vomiting and fever that presents dilatation of the distal end of the common bile duct due to lithiasic cause evidenced by cholangioresonance. It is programmed for CPR, trying cannulation without papillotomy; During the procedure, the patient presents subcutaneous emphysema and tension pneumothorax, requiring emergency treatment. Surgical management was decided twelve hours after ERCP due to the marked hemodynamic instability of the patient; In the intraoperative period and in a subsequent endoscopy, there was no evidence of a macroscopic lesion that justified the clinical and radiological images presented by the patient. Surgical treatment of duodenal perforation wasperformed, which forced a stay in intensive therapyfor11 days. It is complemented by a bibliographic review of post-ERCP complications. (AU)
