Effect of two primary revisions for dystrophic or atrophic nonunion of femoral shaft after intramedullary nailing on health-related quality of life / 中国医师进修杂志

Objective To explore the effect of primary exchange reamed nailing (ERN) and augmentation compression plating (ACP) combined with autogenous bone grafting (ABG) on health-related quality of life in patients with dystrophic or atrophic nonunion of femoral shaft after intramedullary nailing. Methods The study used a prospective study method. Sixty- two patients with femoral shaft nonunion after intramedullary nailing from August 2010 to October 2016 were selected, and the patients were divided into ERN group (group A, 32 cases) and ACP group (group B, 30 cases) by random digits table method. In group A, isthmus nonunion was in 18 cases (56.2％), and non-isthmus nonunion in 14 cases (43.8％); in group B, isthmus nonunion was in 16 cases (53.3％), and non-isthmus nonunion in 14 cases (46.7％ ). The health- related quality of life was compared between 2 groups, including physical component summary (PCS) and mental component summary (MCS) in the- 12- item short form health survey (SF- 12), brief pain inventory- severity (BPI- S) and brief pain inventory- interference (BPI- I). Results Fifty-four patients were followed-up for more than 1 year, and the mean follow-up time was 18.3 (13 to 37) months. All patients successfully achieved bone union, and the mean time was 5.8 (4 to 8) months. Significant improvements in terms of SF-12 PCS and SF-12 MCS score were noted after operation for patients with isthmus nonunion in both groups (t=3.148, 2.156, 2.456 and 2.559; P < 0.05), but there were no significant differences before and after operation in group A with non-isthmus nonunion (P >0.05). At the last follow-up, SF-12 PCS and SF-12 MCS in group B were significantly improved compared with those in group A: (45.2 ± 5.8) scores vs. (33.6 ± 4.7) scores and (48.8 ± 6.5) scores vs. (39.4 ± 5.6) scores, and there were statistical difference (P<0.05); SF-12 BPI-S and BPI-I showed obvious relief: (4.6 ± 2.1) scores vs. (6.2 ± 2.5) scores and (5.2 ± 1.9) scores vs. (6.8 ± 2.7) scores, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05); however there were no statistical difference in SF-12 PCS, SF-12 MCS, BPI-S and BPI- I between 2 groups (P>0.05). Conclusions Compared with ERN combined with ABG, ACP combined with ABG can significantly improve the quality of life in patients with dystrophic or atrophic nonunion of femoral shaft after intramedullary nailing. It has greater advantage on the improvement of health-related quality of life, especially for patients with non-isthmus nonunion.

Analysis on risk factors of re-nonunion after primary revision for femoral shaft nonunion subsequent to failed intramedullary nailing / 中国医师进修杂志

Objective To analyze the related risk factors of re-nonunion after primary revision for femoral shaft nonunion subsequent to failed intramedullary nailing. Methods A retrospective study was performed in 61 patients with femoral shaft nonunion subsequent to failed intramedullary nailing from June 2008 to June.All patients were divided into re-nonunion group(22 cases)and non-re-nonunion group (39 cases) according to diagnostic criteria of bone re-nonunion. Univariate analysis was used to analyze 14 factors that may lead to the occurrence of re-nonunion after revision for femoral shaft nonunion subsequent to failed intramedullary nailing including age, gender, body mass index (BMI), smoking, alcohol abuse, injury reason, fracture types, intramedullary nail types, locking screws technology for intramedullary nail, bone nonunion sites, bone nonunion time, pathological types of bone nonunion, primary revision methods and autologous bone graft or not, and multi-factor logistic regression analysis was performed on the factors showing a significant difference. Results Univariate analysis showed significant difference in smoking (χ2= 6.564, P = 0.036), BMI (χ2= 6.783, P = 0.021), bone nonunion sites(χ2=7.316,P=0.011),primary revision methods(χ2=8.069,P=0.003)and autologous bone graft or not(χ 2=6.668,P=0.027).Logistic regression analysis showed that primary revision methods(OR=1.027,95% CI 0.028-0.463,P<0.05)and autologous bone graft or not(OR=1.024,95% CI 0.006-0.363, P < 0.05) were independent risk factors for re-nonunion after revision of femoral shaft nonunion subsequent to failed intramedullary nailing. Conclusions Primary revision methods and autologous bone graft or not are independent risk factors for re-nonunion after revision of femoral shaft nonunion subsequent to failed intramedullary nailing.By strictly controlling the surgical indications and combining with autogenous bone grafting,it is possible to reduce the occurrence of nonunion after primary revision of the femoral shaft nonunion subsequent to failed intramedullary nailing.

Effects of head rotation on the anatomic relationship of the internal jugular vein and the common carotid artery-an ultrasonographic study / 临床麻醉学杂志

Objective To observe the relationship of right internal jugular vein (RIJV)and common carotid artery (CAA)by scanning strictly from the anterior to posterior using ultrasound at different head rotation.Methods Using ultrasonic scanning,the anatomic features of RIJV and CAA both at thyroid cartilage level (prominentia laryngea level)and at the apex of the angle formed by the division of the sternocleidomastoid muscle (triangle level)with 0°,1 5°,30° and 45° right rotation were observed in 131 patients with ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ (male 55 cases,female 76 cases, aged 18~74 years).Based on the ultrasound images,the safe puncture range,the overlapping ratio, the angle between the horizontal axis and the line from the midpoint of RIJV to that of CAA (αangle) were measured.In addition,the relationship between the RIJV and CAA was defined as anterior-lat-eral, lateral, posterior-lateral or extremely-posterior-lateral position according to α angle. Results The safe puncture range of RIJV augmented as head rotated from 0° to 30° position(P <0.05);The safe puncture range of RIJV at triangle level was significantly higher than at prominentia laryngea level at all the four head positions(P <0.05).The overlapping degree decreased as head rota-ted from 0°to 30°head position at prominentia laryngea level(P <0.05).No siginificant differences of the overlapping degree were found between head positons at triangle level;The overlapping degree at triangle level was less than at prominentia laryngea level when at 0°and 1 5°head positon(P <0.05). At both prominentia laryngea and triangle levels,RIJV located mainly at lateral and posterior-lateral positions.In addition,the part of lateral position increased while the part of posterior-lateral position decreased as the head rotated from 0°to 45°position(P <0.05).Conclusion The puncture conditions for RIJV catheterization were more optimal at 30°to 45°head rotation for a safer puncture range and less overlapping between RIJV and CAA.RIJV located mainly at lateral and posterior-lateral positions at different rotations and RIJV gradually shifted to lateral position while head rotation increasing.It would be much better to select triangle level for central venous catheterization than prominentia laryn-gea level.

Clinical significance of changes in alpha hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase in patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma / 中国肿瘤临床

The objectives of this study are as follows:1) to explore the expression level of alpha hydroxybutyric acid dehydrogenase (α-HBDH) in patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) and its prognostic significance;and 2) to analyze the relationship amongα-HBDH, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and beta 2-microglobulin (β2-MG), so as to evaluate their diagnostic and prognostic sig-nificance. Methods:The expression levels of serumα-HBDH, LDH, andβ2-MG were examined in 104 patients with NHL before and after treatment. The relations among the levels of serum LDH,α-HBDH, andβ2-MG, as well as their connection with the patients' age, gender, disease stage, and pathological type, were explored. Results:Serumα-HBDH level increased in 35%of the patients and showed a significant correlation with LDH andβ2-MG. Significant differences were observed forα-HBDH andβ2-MG at different stages but not for LDH. Significant differences were observed betweenα-HBDH and LDH for different pathological types, but none was found inβ2-MG. The three serum enzymes did not exhibit any significant difference for different ages and genders. Levels of serum LDH andα-HBDH showed considerable difference between pre-treatment and post-treatment of patients. Serumβ2-MG level did not show any significant change after two or three cycles of chemotherapy. Conclusion:The expression level of serumα-HBDH increases in patients with NHL, is positively correlated with the levels of LDH andβ2-MG, and is highly relevant to disease stage and pathological type, regardless of the patients' age and gender. Serumα-HBDH is expected to be a new NHL indicator for tumor load, disease severity, and prognosis.
