Objective To explore the effect of local injection of high concentration of glucose when removing setons of perianal fistulizing in Crohn’s disease (CD). Methods Thirty cases of CD combined with anal fistula admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine from August 2015 to July 2017 were collected prospectively, 12 cases were divided into experimental group and 18 cases were divided into control group. Cases of the experimental group received demolition of drainage seton+IFX+local injection of high concentration of glucose treatment, cases of the control group received the drainage setons removing+IFX only. Before treatment, and at 6, 14, 22, and 30 weeks after IFX treatment, the laboratory indicators of the 2 groups were detected, and BMI, Crohn’s diseaseactivity index (CDAI), perianal disease activity index (PDAI), and clinical efficacy were evaluated. Results Therewas no significant difference on the group effect and interaction of group and time (P>0.05), but time (P<0.05). Both in the experimental group and the control group, compared with before treatment group, the counts of WBC and platelet, levels of C reaction protein (CRP) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), CDAI, and PDAI at 6 months after IFX therapy decreased and maintained at the latter period, but the level of hemoglobin (Hb) and BMI increased at 6 weeks after IFX therapy and maintained at the latter period. On the clinical effect, there was no significant difference at the time points of 14, 22, and 30 weeks of IFX therapy (P>0.05). Conclusion The treatment of local injection of high concentration of glucose when removing setons has not shown any positive effect to CD combined with anal fistula, this conclusion needs to be further studied.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effectiveness of local injection of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in treatment of diabetic foot ulcer.MethodsBetween October 2017 and October 2018, 90 diabetic foot ulcer patients who met the selection criteria were randomly divided into 3 groups: PRP injection group (group A, PRP was injected and hydrogel dressing covered the wounds), PRP covered group (group B, PRP gel and hydrogel dressing covered the wounds), and the control group (group C, hydrogel dressing covered the wounds), 30 cases in each group. There was no significant difference in gender, age, injured side, disease duration, preoperative glycosylated hemoglobin, wound size, and Wagner grading between groups (P>0.05). The frequency of treatments and hospitalization day in all groups and the total amount of PRP application in groups A and B were recorded. The wound healing condition was recorded during the treatment, and the wound healing rate was calculated at 3 months after the first debridement.ResultsThe frequency of treatments in groups A, B, and C were (10.2±0.8), (11.4±0.6), (12.5±0.5) times, respectively. The total amount of PRP application of groups A and B were (306±24) and (342±18) mL, respectively. There was no significant difference in the frequency of treatments and the total amount of PRP application between groups (P>0.05). The hospitalization days of groups A, B, and C were (40.5±1.8), (62.1±2.3), and (88.6±1.4) days, respectively, showing significant differences between groups (P<0.05). In the course of treatment, the necrosis and exudation of the wounds gradually reduced, the areas of wounds gradually reduced; and the above conditions of group A were significantly better than groups B and C, and group B was better than group C. At 3 months after the first debridement, the wound healing rates of groups A, B, and C were 93.2%±0.8%, 52.1%±1.1%, and 21.3%±1.3%, respectively, with significant differences between groups (P<0.05).ConclusionPRP can effectively promote the repair of diabetic foot ulcer. The effectiveness of local injection of PRP is superior to the local coverage.
Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of local triamcinolone combined with conventional interventional therapy in the treatment of benign airway stenosis. Methods PubMed, Cochrane Library, EMbase, Web of science, wanfang, VIP and China National Knowledge Infrastructure were searched by computer between the establishment of the database and August, 2019, and all literatures on the local treatment of benign airway stenosis using triamcinolone combined with conventional interventional therapy were searched. According to inclusion and exclusion criteria, 2 researchers screened the literatures and performed the data extraction and methodological quality evaluation. Meta-analysis was performed with Revman5.2 and Stata software. Results In total, nine randomized controlled trials were included in this meta-analysis, including 449 patients with airway stenosis. The total result showed that in the comparison of short-term efficacy, there were no statistically significant differences in breathability score (SMD=–0.16, 95%CI –0.45 - 0.13, P=0.27), airway diameter (SMD=0.14, 95%CI –0.13 - 0.41, P=0.30), and cross-sectional stenosis rate (SMD=–0.01, 95%CI –0.36 - 0.34, P=0.96) between the treatment group and the control group. In the comparison of long-term efficacy, the breathability score (SMD=–2.53, 95%CI –3.78 - –1.28, P<0.05), airway diameter (SMD=1.31, 95%CI 0.83 - 1.78, P<0.05), cross-sectional stenosis rate (SMD=2.58, 95%CI: 2.11~3.08, P<0.05), and FEV1(SMD=0.42, 95%CI 0.13 - 0.70, P=0.004) of patients in the treatment group were all better than those in the control group. But in terms of adverse reactions, the incidence of bleeding in the airway between two groups was similar (RR=2.00, 95%CI 0.88 - 4.52, P=0.10), other adverse reactions such as blood glucose and plasma cortisol levels were mild, which can be relieved symptomatically. Conclusion Current evidence suggests that topical triamcinolone combined with conventional interventional therapy for benign airway stenosis has a better long-term clinical efficacy with fewer adverse reactions and better overall patient tolerance, which has clinical application value
Objective To explore the early effectiveness and influence on cartilage of local injection of multimodal drug cocktail (MDC) during anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Methods Between February 2022 and August 2023, patients undergone arthroscopic ACLR using autologous hamstring tendons were selected as the study subjects. Among them, 90 patients met the selection criteria and were randomly divided into 3 groups (n=30) according to the different injection drugs after ligament reconstruction. There was no significant difference in baseline data such as gender, age, body mass index, surgical side, disease duration, preoperative thigh circumference, and preoperative levels of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin 6 (IL-6), IL-1, matrix metalloproteinase 3 (MMP-3), MMP-13, and aggrecan (ACAN) in synovial fluid between groups (P>0.05). After the ligament reconstruction during operation, corresponding MDC (consisting of ropivacaine, tranexamic acid, and betamethasone in group A, and ropivacaine, betamethasone, and saline in group B) or saline (group C) were injected into the joint and tendon site, respectively. The length of hospital stay, postoperative tramadol injection volume, incidence of complications, degree of knee joint swelling and range of motion, visual analogue scale (VAS) score, International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score, Lyshlom score, and Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) score were recorded and compared between groups. The T2* values in different cartilage regions were detected by MRI examination and the levels of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1, MMP-3, MMP-13, and ACAN in synovial fluid were detected by ELISA method. Results The patients in group A, B, and C were followed up (12.53±3.24), (13.14±2.87), and (12.82±3.32) months, respectively. All incisions healed by first intention. Compared with group C, group A and group B had shorter length of hospital stay, less tramadol injection volume, and lower incidence of complications, showing significant differences (P<0.05); there was no significant difference between group A and group B (P>0.05). The degree of knee swelling in group A was significantly less than that in group B and group C (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between group B and group C (P>0.05). At 3, 6, 12, 24, and 48 hours after operation, VAS scores of group A and group B were significantly lower than those of group C (P<0.05); at 72 hours after operation, there was no significant difference among the three groups (P>0.05). At 3 days, 14 days, and 1 month after operation, the range of motion of knee joint in group A were significantly better than those in group C (P<0.05), and there was no significant difference between the other groups (P>0.05). At 1 month after operation, the IKDC score of group A and group B was significantly higher than that of group C (P<0.05); there was no significant difference among the three groups at other time points (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in Lyshlom score and HSS score among the three groups at each time point (P>0.05). At 14 days after operation, the levels of IL-1 and IL-6 in the synovial fluid in groups A and B were significantly lower than those in group C (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the levels of TNF-α, MMP-3, MMP-13, and ACAN between groups A and B (P>0.05). At 1 month after operation, there was no significant difference in the above indicators among the three groups (P>0.05). At 3, 6, and 12 months after operation, there was no significant difference in the T2* values of different cartilage regions among the three groups (P>0.05). ConclusionInjecting MDC (ropivacaine, tranexamic acid, betamethasone) into the joint and tendon site during ACLR can achieve good early effectiveness without significant impact on cartilage.
