ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate and analyze the clinical efficacy of imitated Fu's acupuncture combined with blade needle therapy in the treatment of lateral humeral epicondylitis.Methods:A total of 100 patients with lateral humeral epicondylitis who received treatment in Haining People's Hospital, China between January 2019 and July 2020 were included in this study. They were randomly assigned to receive either acupuncture combined with moxibustion (control group, n = 50) or imitated Fu's acupuncture combined with blade needle therapy (study group, n = 50). Therapeutic outcome was compared between the control and study groups. Results:Clinical effective rate in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group [98% (49/50) vs. 82% (41/50), χ2 = 7.111, P < 0.05]. After treatment, the Visual Analogue Scale score in each group was significantly reduced compared with before treatment ( t = 9.740, 24.200, both P < 0.05). After treatment, pain score in the study group was significantly lower than that in the control group [(3.62 ± 0.15) points vs. (4.89 ± 1.21) points, t = 7.365, P < 0.05). After treatment, activities of daily living in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group [(36.62 ± 2.55) points vs. (33.22 ± 1.41) points, t = 8.251, P < 0.001]. The Disability of Arm, Shoulder and Hand score in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group [(30.24 ± 3.25) points vs. (40.25 ± 5.47) points, t = 11.125, P < 0.001). Conclusion:Imitated Fu's acupuncture combined with blade needle therapy for treatment of lateral humeral epicondylitis can effectively alleviate pain, improve upper limb function and self-activity ability, increase clinical efficacy, and thereby deserve clinical popularization.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of aprepitant in the treatment of cisplatin based chemotherapy in-duced nausea and vomiting.Methods The tumor patients treated with cisplatin(80 mg/m2)chemotherapeutic regimen in Affiliated Shantou Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University from December 1,2014 to December 1,2016 were selected,61 cases still had vomiting after using granisetron and dexamethasone for routinely stopping vomiting,the patients with aprepitant and dexamethasone for fur-ther stopping vomiting served as the aprepitant group,while the patients with granisetron and dexamethasone as the granisetron group.Then the complete response(CR)rates within 24,24-72,>72-144 h were observed in the two groups.Results The CR rates within 24 h in the aprepitant group and granisetron group were 66.67% and 51.61% respectively,the difference was not sta-tistically significant(P=0.232),which at 24-72 h were 80.00% and 54.84% respectively,the aprepitant group was significantly better than the granisetron group(P=0.036),which at >72-144 h were 86.67% and 64.52% respectively,the aprepitant group was better than the granisetron group(P=0.045).The comparison of adverse reactions between the two antiemetic drugs found that constipation,diarrhea,urticaria,fatigue and anxiety had no significant difference(P>0.05),the occurrence rate of total adverse reactions in the aprepitant group was 23.33%,which in the granisetron group was 25.81%,the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant(P>0.05).Conclusion Aprepitant combined with dexamethasone has better effect for treating hy-peremetic chemotherapy drug cisplatin chemotherapy caused nausea and vomiting with good tolerance.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect and safety of Qizheng Qingpeng ointment in the treatment of eczema.Methods Ninety -eight patients of eczema were randomly divided into two groups, who received either Qizheng Qingpeng ointment plus hydrocortisone butyrate cream or only hydrocortisone butyrate cream at the first 2 weeks,and all patients were treated of Qizheng Qingpeng ointment plus hydrocortisone butyrate cream at the further 2 weeds.Results At 1 week and 2 week post-treatment,the efficacy rates were 68.52%,87.03% for the study groups and 27.91%,58.13%for the control groups,the efficacy rate of the study groups was statistically better than that of the control groups (χ2 =14.21,8.99, all P0.05) .Conclusion The clinical efficacy of Qizheng Qingpeng oint-ment associated with corticosteriod for treatment of eczema was better than corticosteriod alone.
ABSTRACT
Objective To summarize the surgical techniques and results of displaced complex ac-etabular fractures.Methods Ninety-eight cases of complex type o f acetabular fracture with dislocation were treated with open reduction and inte rnal fixation from March 1990to Sept ember 1999.Of the 98cases,fractures of the posterior column an d wall was seen in 9cases,T -shaped in28cases,transverse and posterior wall in 22cases,anterior and hemi-transverse in 2cases,both column in 37cases.Kocher -Langenbeck approach was adopted in 28cases,ilio-inguinal approach in 21cases,extended iliofemoral approach in 16cases,and double approachs(K -L +ilio-inguinal)in 33cases.Results Sixty-two cases(63.3%)had anatomic reduction,32cases(32.7%)satisfactory reduction,4cases(4.1%)unsatisfactory reduction.The rates of anatomic reduction in the early 4.5years and the latest 4.5years of this study were 50.0%and72.4%respectively.Seventy-eight cases were followed up from 2to 10yea rs,excellent and good rate for clinical results in anatomic and non-anatomic reduction group were 83.9%and 36.4%respectively,the difference was very significant (P
