目的 探讨腹腔镜下输卵管妊娠开窗取胚术后缝合与否对输卵管再通、宫内妊娠率的近期影响。方法 回顾分析2008年4月-2010年4月112例有保留生育功能意愿且具备随访条件的输卵管妊娠患者行腹腔镜手术的临床资料。根据手术方法将患者分为两组:A组54例,行患侧输卵管开窗取胚术,术后缝合输卵管;B组58例,行患侧输卵管开窗取胚术,术后不予缝合输卵管。两组术毕均予甲氨喋呤20 mg注射于病变输卵管处系膜,并行通液了解患侧输卵管通畅情况(对侧输卵管均通畅)。3个月后比较两组患侧输卵管的再通情况,并随访其近期(12个月内)宫内妊娠率、重复性异位妊娠率情况。 结果 A组54例患者术中患侧输卵管通畅48例,通而不畅6例;术后3个月B型超声监测下通液43例通畅,10例通而不畅,1例不通,通畅率79.63%。B组58例患者术中患侧输卵管通畅54例,4例通而不畅;术后3个月B型超声监测下通液37例通畅,13例通而不畅,8例不通,通畅率63.79%。近期(12个月内)宫内妊娠率、重复性异位妊娠率情况:A组54例,实访42例,宫内妊娠29例,占69.05%;重复性异位妊娠6例,占14.29%。B组58例,实访44例,宫内妊娠18例,占40.91%,重复性异位妊娠12例,占27.27%。A组术后患侧输卵管通畅率、宫内妊娠率高于B组,而重复性异位妊娠率明显降低,两组差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。 结论 腹腔镜下输卵管妊娠开窗取胚术后行输卵管缝合,可以减少对患侧输卵管损伤并恢复其正常的解剖结构,从而有效地保留患者生育功能。术后患侧输卵管通畅率、宫内妊娠率明显高于术后不缝合者,而重复性异位妊娠率明显降低。
【摘要】 目的 探讨骨形成蛋白-2(bone morphogenetic protein-2,BMP-2)对室管膜前下区(anterior subventricular zone,SVZa)神经干细胞DLX5表达的影响。 方法 体外培养SVZa神经干细胞,用BMP-2及其拮抗剂Noggin诱导SVZa神经干细胞,分别用免疫荧光染色和逆转录-聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)检测DLX5表达变化。 结果 BMP-2组SVZa神经干细胞DLX5蛋白表达和DLX5mRNA表达水平明显高于对照组(Plt;0.05),且该效应能被其拮抗剂Noggin特异性地抑制。 结论 BMP-2是DLX5上游调节基因,可促进SVZa神经干细胞DLX5的表达。【Abstract】 Objective To investigate the effect of bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2)on expression of DLX5 of neural stem cells in anterior subventricular zone (SVZa). Methods The neural stem cells of SVZa were separated and cultured in vitro, which were induced by BMP-2 and Noggin.Immunofluorescence staining and RT-PCR were employed to assay the expression of DLX5. Results The percentages of expression of DLX5 protein and DLX5 mRNA in BMP-2 group were much higher than those in the control group (Plt;0.05). And this induction could be specifically blocked by Noggin. Conclusion BMP-2 is an upstream gene of DLX5; BMP-2 can promote the expression of DLX5 of the neural stem cells of SVZa.
【Abstract】 Objective To improve the knowledge of pulmonary embolism with normal D-dimer levels. Methods Nine consecutive patients of established pulmonary embolism with a normal D-dimer concentration admitted from January 2004 to December 2009 were analyzed retrospectively. Results Pulmonary embolism was confirmed in the 9 patients with a normal D-dimer concentration. Pulmonary embolismwas confirmed in only one patientwith an unlikely probability of pulmonary embolism. Wells score was 3 and the localization of the emboli was segmental emboli. In other 8 patients with a likely clinical probability of pulmonary embolism, the complaints of those patients existed between 1 hour and 2 months.Wells score was between 4. 5 and 7. 5, with a median of 6. 0. D-dimer concentration was between 0. 1 and 0. 5 mg/L, with a median of 0. 3 mg/L. The localization of the emboli was sub-segmental emboli in 3 cases,segmental emboli in 4 cases, and central emboli in 2 cases. Conclusions Our findings indicate that it is essential to examine the patient and assess the clinical probability at the first, then the D-dimer concentration should be taken into account. In patients with a likely clinical probability, a normal D-dimer test result can not exclude pulmonary embolism, and additional imaging testing is necessary.
Abstract: Objective To evaluate clinical outcomes of tricuspid annuloplasty using a C-type ring made of autologous pericardium for the treatment of functional tricuspid regurgitation (TR). Methods Eleven patients underwent tricuspid annuloplasty in Guizhou Provincial People’s Hospital between March 2009 and January 2011, including 5 male patients and 6 female patients with their age of 32-57 (43.80±12.20) years. There were 3 patients with mild TR, 7 patients with moderate TR, and 1 patient with severe TR. Concomitant procedures included mitral valve replacement and/or aortic valve replacement and/or left atrial thrombectomy. The C-type ring was created using a strip of pericardium after 0.8% glutaraldehyde fixation for 15 minutes. Interrupted horizontal mattress suture was used to secure the C-type ring to the tricuspid annulus. Hear function and echocardiography were examined during follow-up. Results There was no in-hospital death, and the hospital stay was 15-28 (21.10±3.80) days. All the patients were followed up for 8-28 (18.50±7.00)months. There was no death or reoperation because of TR or tricuspid stenosis during follow-up. Ten patients had TR during follow-up, including 9 patients with mild TR and 1 patient with mild to moderate TR, but there was no patient with severe TR. The degree of TR during follow-up was significantly reduced than preoperative degree (Z =-2.81,P<0.05). Preoperative and postoperative right ventricular dimension (19.95±5.11 mm vs. 21.57±12.81 mm,P=0.705) and right atrial dimension(37.55±6.79 mm vs. 35.55±5.22 mm,P=0.317)were not statistically different. Conclusion Tricuspid annuloplasty using a C-type ring made of autologous pericardium has satisfactory clinical outcomes for patients with functional TR.
Objective To analyze the causes of pain after total knee arthroplasty (TKA), and to review its diagnosis and treatment methods. Methods Domestic and abroad l iterature concerning pain after TKA was extensively reviewed and thoroughly analyzed. Results Pain after TKA was divided into intra-articular and extra-articular factors, systematic assessment, appropriate imaging, and laboratory tests were useful to confirm the diagnosis; targeted surgery could effectively rel ieve the pain. Conclusion The causes of pain after TKA are complex and diverse, the first step is to exclude intraarticular infection, for patients having a clear cause the appropriate surgery is effective. Otherwise revision should be carried outcautiously under condition of unexplained pain and conservative treatment can rel ieve pain to some degree.
Objective To investigate the cl inical effect of minimally invasive internal fixation percutaneous plate osteosynthesis (MIPPO) assisted by arthroscopy on tibial plateau fractures. Methods From September 2005 to December 2007, 29 patients with tibial plateau fracture underwent arthroscopy-assisted MIPPO, including 18 males and 11 females aged18-59 years old (average 34.7 years old). There were 8 cases of type II, 10 of type III, 5 of type IV, 3 of type V, and 3 of type VI according to Schatzker classification system. The fracture was combined with meniscus injury in 13 cases, anterior cruciate l igament injury in 4 cases, and medial collateral l igament injury in 3 cases. The time from injury to operation was 2-10 days. Firstly, the combined injury was treated under arthroscopy. Then, reduction of tibial plateau fractures was performed, bone grafting was conducted in the area of bone defect, and internal fixation using strut plates was performed after establ ishing subcutaneous tunnel via minimally invasion. Early rehabil itation activities were carried out for each patient 1 day after operation. Results No early compl ications such as poor heal ing of incisions, infections, and osteofascial compartment syndrome occurred. Over the follow-up period of 12-39 months (average 24 months), there was no failure of internal fixation, traumatic knee osteoarthritis, and inversion and eversion of the knee. The fractures healed within 3-4.5 months (average 3.5 months). The cl inical effect was excellent in 23 cases, good in 4 cases, and fair in 2 cases according to Lysholm knee rating system, and the excellent and good rate was 93.1%. Conclusion Arthroscopy-assisted MIPPO is a safe and effective way of managing tibial plateau fractures due to its features of minimal invasion, earl ier recovery, fewer compl ications, and simultaneous treatment of associated intra-articular injuries.
