Lumbar disc herniation is one of the most common causes of low back and leg pain in clinic. There are a lot of non-surgical therapeutic methods widely used in clinic for treating lumbar disc herniation. The author assessed the available systematic reviews of non-surgical methods in treating lumbar disc herniation which had been published in these years, and finally a total of 13 systematic reviews were retrieved including 1 about conservative treatments, 8 Chinese medicine treatments, and 4 percutaneous treatments, such as chemonucleolysis and epidural steroid injection. The results showed that the conservative treatments included injections, traction, physical therapy, bed rest, manipulation, medication, and acupuncture. But no evidence was found to show that any of the above treatments was clearly superior to others including no treatment for patients with lumbar disc herniation. The outcomes from some reviews showed that Chinese medicine treatments were safer and comprehensive treatment of traditional Chinese medicine was relatively effective compared with single treatment. Electro-acupuncture, compared with conventional therapy (bed rest, waist protection, pelvic traction, manual or physical therapy) and oral medications as well, was safe and effective in alleviating pain and improving overall function. Chinese medicinal fumigation combined with traction was more effective than single treatment. Percutaneous treatment of chemonucleolysis had much better short-term effectiveness. Percutaneous epidural steroid injection also had certain effects. To summarize, Chinese medicine and percutaneous treatments may be effective in treating lumbar disc herniation. However, more clinical trials are needed, since current evidence is of low quality.
ObjectiveTo summarize the treatment effects and success rate of spleen-preserving treatments for patients with splenic injury, and to explore the ideal spleen-preserving treatment for different types of splenic injury. MethodWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 136 patients with splenic injury who underwent spleen-preserving treatment in the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery between July 1998 and December 2010. And the treatment effects of different combined treatment methods were compared and studied. ResultsTwenty-seven patients were treated without surgery; 23 underwent vascular suture combined with fibrin glue treatment; 26 accepted splenic artery ligation, partial suture and fibrin glue treatment; 20 underwent ultrasonic scalpel partial splenectomy and wound spray fibrin glue treatment; 17 accepted splenic artery ligation and RF hemostatic cutter row spleen resection; and 23 accepted laparoscopic ultrasonic scalpel with partial splenectomy and wound spray fibrin glue treatment. Spleen-preserving succeeded in 131 cases (95.58%) and failed in 5 cases (4.42%) without any deaths. ConclusionsIn the treatment of splenic injury, the success rate of different methods of spleen-preserving is close. The success rate of combined use of several spleen-preserving methods together is higher. Under the principle of "Save lives first, and preserve spleen second", we should carry out individualized treatment plan for the patients based on patients' general condition, the extent and grade of splenic rupture, and medical equipment and technical conditions. For those medical units with good treatment conditions, combined spleen-preserving treatment can be performed.
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis refers to a three-dimensional spinal deformity or structural change that occurs in adolescence. The rotation of the vertebral body is greater than or equal to 10°. In order to avoid affecting the physical and mental health of patients, appropriate intervention and treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis should be carried out as soon as possible. Based on the summary of non-surgical treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis at home and abroad, this paper systematically introduces the mainstream early non-surgical treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, including observation and follow-up, electrical stimulation therapy, Chinese traditional chiropractic techniques, massage and manual reduction, functional training and exercise therapy, traction therapy and brace therapy, in order to provide a reference for the possible treatment research direction of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis in the future.
目的 探讨外伤性脾破裂非手术治疗的可行性、适应证及其治疗效果。 方法 回顾性分析我院1990年1月至2005年1月收治的外伤性脾破裂非手术治疗46例临床资料。结果 非手术治愈43例，3例因提前下床活动致大出血而中转手术，其中1例并发膈下脓肿，仍经保守治疗痊愈。无死亡病例。结论 在严格掌握适应证前提下非手术治疗外伤性脾破裂安全可行，年龄及腹腔外合并伤不是影响非手术治疗的主要因素。
ObjectiveTo systematically review the efficacy and safety of operative treatment versus nonoperative treatment in patients with adult spinal deformity (ASD).MethodsPubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, and CQVIP databases were searched for controlled studies about operative treatment versus nonoperative treatment for ASD published up till June 2019. ClinicalTrials.gov was searched for grey literatures informally published up till June 2019. Two reviewers independently screened literatures, extracted data, and assessed risk of bias. Meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 and Stata 14.0 softwares.ResultsA total of 10 non-randomized controlled studies were included, including 1 601 patients. The pooled results indicated that the operative group was superior to the nonoperative group in ability improvement [the increment of Scoliosis Research Society-22 score: weighted mean difference (WMD)=0.70, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.69, 0.70), P<0.000 01; the decrement of Oswestry Disability Index score: WMD=11.12, 95%CI (10.74, 11.50), P<0.000 01], pain relief [the decrement of Numeric Rating Scale score: WMD=3.25, 95%CI (3.16, 3.35), P<0.000 01], and Cobb correction [WMD=14.06°, 95%CI (13.60, 14.53)°, P<0.000 01]. The incidence of complications was higher in the operative group than that in the nonoperative group [relative risk=5.38, 95%CI (3.67, 7.88), P<0.000 01].ConclusionsSurgery shows superior efficacy on ability improvement, pain relief, and Cobb correction compared with nonoperative treatment in ASD patients, though its incidence of complications is high. Nonoperative treatment is also an effective treatment for patients with poor physical condition and intolerance to surgery. Due to the limited quantity and quality of included studies, more high-quality studies are required to verify the above conclusions.
目的观察普鲁卡因对重症急性胰腺炎（SAP）患者的治疗效果。方法将我院1993年3月至2001年4月收治行非手术治疗的SAP患者40例，分为普鲁卡因治疗组23例，非普鲁卡因治疗组17例。结果普鲁卡因治疗组治愈20例，死亡3例，死亡率为13.0%； 非普鲁卡因治疗组治愈9例，死亡8例，死亡率为47.1%，普鲁卡因治疗组死亡率明显低于非普鲁卡因治疗组（P＜0.05）。结论SAP的普鲁卡因治疗组效果优于非普鲁卡因治疗组，且患者痛苦小、并发症少、费用低，值得推广使用。
ObjectiveTo investigate the optimal treatment scheme for the first primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP) in young patients.MethodsThe clinical data of 171 patients with the first PSP were retrospectively analyzed who were treated in Huaihe Hospital of Henan University between November 2011 and October 2017. There were 157 males and 14 females with a median age of 18 years at onset and a median body mass index of 18.51 kg/m2. According to the treatment methods, they were classified into two groups, a conservative treatment group (a non-surgical group, n=86) and a surgical group (n=85). The characteristics including clinical data, efficacy evaluation criteria, complications and recurrence of the two groups were analyzed.ResultsAs a result, 73.68% of the patients suffered PSP in their daily routine. The drainage duration in the non-surgical group was longer than that in the surgical group (4 d vs. 3 d, P=0.008). There was no statistical difference in the success rate of lung re-expansion between the two groups (98.85% vs. 100.00%, P=1.000). The proportion of the surgical group using postoperative analgesic drugs was higher than that in the non-surgical group (48.23% vs. 10.46%, P=0.000). The recurrence rate of the surgical group was lower than that of the non-surgical group (3.53% vs. 46.51%, P=0.000). No relationship between smoking and recurrence of pneumothorax was found in both groups (P=0.301, P=1.000). The success rate of lung re-expansion in the non-surgical group was not statistically different between the 24F subgroup and the 12F subgroup (39/39 vs. 33/34, P=0.458). No advantage of intraoperative pleural fixation was found in the surgical group (P=0.693).ConclusionThoracoscopic surgery is the first choice for the treatment of the first PSP in young patients.
