Trends and Predictors for Vagotomy When Performing Oversew of Acute Bleeding Duodenal Ulcer in the United States

Background In the era of Helicobacter pylori treatment, the role of vagotomy in bleeding duodenal ulcers is debatable. National outcomes were evaluated to determine the current surgical treatment and use of vagotomy for bleeding duodenal ulcers. Methods Data from the Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) were used from years 1999 to 2003. Patients were selected using diagnostic codes for acute duodenal ulcer bleed and procedure codes for simple oversew of a bleeding ulcer and vagotomy. Data were analyzed using multiple linear and logistic regression. Results Between 1999 and 2003, 100,931 patients with an acute bleeding duodenal ulcer were identified. Over time, there was a decrease in the number of acute bleeding ulcers (p = 0.027) and a decrease in the number of vagotomies (p = 0.027). A high co-morbidity index [odds ratio (OR), 0.60, p = 0.017], operation in the Midwest (OR 0.50, p < 0.001) and operation in the West (OR 0.68, p = 0.034) were predictive of no vagotomy during surgery for a bleeding duodenal ulcer. Conclusions A vagotomy is not commonly performed during surgical treatment of an acute bleeding duodenal ulcer. This variation in practice was not fully explained by patient characteristics. We must seek new evidence to determine the safety of combined medical and surgical management of this clinical problem. Presented at DDW/SSAT May 20–24, Los Angeles, California.

目的探讨扩大壁细胞迷走神经切断术（EPCV）治疗十二指肠溃疡并发急性穿孔的远期临床疗效。方法对1979年以来采用EPCV治疗的176例十二指肠溃疡并发急性穿孔患者的临床资料进行总结,分析评价疗效,评价内容包括术后并发症发生率、溃疡复发率、胃排空功能、胃镜和上消化道钡餐检查结果和营养状态及Visick分级。结果全组患者有153例（86.9%）获得5年随访。无手术死亡者。进食后上腹发生间断性胀痛13例（8.5%）,有时返酸12例（7.8%）,经服用吗叮啉可缓解。出现粘连性肠梗阻行粘连松解术4例（2.6%）,溃疡复发4例（2.6%）,均发生在术后2-3年内。浅表性胃炎21例（13.7%）,十二指肠球部变形31例（20.3%）,胃窦蠕动功能较好,胃排空功能正常。全组无贫血发生,体重增加者116例（75.8%）。Visick改良分级,146例为Ⅰ级和Ⅱ级,优良率占95.4%,Ⅲ级3例（2.0%）,Ⅳ级4例（2.6%）。结论EPCV术具有手术操作简便、术后并发症较少、溃疡复发率低、患者术后远期营养状况良好、生活质量较高的优良疗效,是治疗十二指肠溃疡并发急性穿孔首选的安全有效术式之一。     

MR血管成像在诊断下肢深静脉血栓形成中的价值并与DSA对照研究

目的探讨下肢深静脉血栓形成MR血管成像（MRA）的临床价值。方法对30例怀疑下肢深静脉血栓形成的患者进行了MRA和DSA检查，MRA采用二维时间飞越法（2DTOF）。对MRA与DSA表现进行对照分析。结果下肢深静脉血栓形成的MRA表现有1静脉充盈缺损（14例）、静脉闭塞和中断（8例）、静脉再通（3例）、侧支循环形成（25例）。以DSA为标准，MRA诊断出所有病变，但有1例假阳性。结论MRA作为无创性检查，是诊断下肢深静脉血栓有效的检查方法之一。     

Holmes-like tremor of the lower extremity following brainstem hemorrhage.

Holmes tremor is an arrhythmic, 2- to 5-Hz resting, postural, and kinetic upper extremity movement disorder that occurs weeks to months after acute mesencephalic pathology. We present a patient who developed tremor in three body parts postbrainstem hemorrhage with subsequent hypertrophic olivary degeneration and discuss the relevant clinical evolution. Our case is unique because in addition to expected upper extremity and cervical dystonic head tremors, the patient also developed a severe lower extremity movement disorder, which we believe to be a form of Holmes tremor. Tremor involving the lower extremity in this setting has not been previously reported.     

Klippel-Trenaunay综合征的微创治疗

目的总结血管内介入、激光光凝、硬化剂注射等微创技术治疗Klippel-Trenaunay综合征(Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome,K-TS)的临床经验. 方法 1989年2月～2004年11月我院收治32例K-TS,对深部异常的动静脉瘘和下肢异常的动脉侧枝进行栓塞治疗,对功能不全的深静脉瓣膜进行微创修复,对粗大的曲张静脉行激光光凝治疗,对肢体血管瘤和局限性迂曲成团的细小静脉丛注射硬化剂. 结果 32例随访1～7年,平均5年,未见复发.29例肢体曲张静脉包括网状静脉扩张完全消失,造影检查动静脉瘘当即消失,股骨异常血液供应消失.32例肢体增粗现象逐渐减轻.32例血管瘤于注射后2～3个月完全硬化、消失或明显减小但无按压缩小现象.7例瓣膜修复者多普勒检查股浅静脉无明显返流. 结论血管内介入、血管内激光光凝、硬化剂注射、小切口瓣膜修复等综合治疗K-TS可取得较好的疗效,值得推广应用.

目的 总结胃十二指肠溃疡出血行胃大部切除术后大出血再手术治疗的经验。方法 对我院1980年至2002年间收治的26例胃切除术后大出血再手术患者的临床资料进行回顾分析。结果 本组有6例术前行急诊胃镜检查，11例行术中胃镜检查，2例采用超选择性动脉造影。11例球部旷置溃疡出血或球后溃疡出血者，采取旷置溃疡切除或十二指肠球部及降部纵行切开、直视下缝合出血点，同时阻断十二指肠周围血管手术；13例吻合口出血者，局部缝扎止血、切除原吻合口，再作毕Ⅱ式重建或行空肠胃Roux-en-Y吻合；还有2例行再次胃切除手术。治愈24例(92．3％)；死亡2例(7．7%)，均为术后再出血者。结论 术前采用超选择性血管造影及术中胃镜检查，有利于明确出血部位及原因；选择恰当的手术方式对防止术后再出血非常重要。     

两种不同术式治疗下肢静脉功能不全的近期疗效对照研究

目的 评价腔内射频闭合术联合TriVex刨吸术治疗下肢静脉功能不全的疗效. 方法 150例下肢静脉功能不全患者(150条患肢)随机分为A、B两组,每组75例.A组行大隐静脉射频闭合术联合曲张浅静脉TriVex刨吸术,B组行大隐静脉高位结扎抽剥术联合曲张浅静脉TriVex刨吸术.比较两组手术情况、术后4周患者对手术的自身评价、手术前后CEAP(clinic,etiologic,anatomic and pathophysiological classification)分级和临床严重程度计分(venous clinical severity score,vcss)的变化.结果 A、B两组手术时间分别为(67±11)min和(69±9)min(P＞0.05),A组术后疼痛轻、下地时间早、住院天数少、皮下血肿发生率低,但皮下硬结发生率高于B组;对手术的评价A组为(11.21±2.00)分优于B组(10.52±2.08)分,差异有统计学意义(P＜0.05);两组手术前后CEAP分级和VCSS计分变化差异均有统计学意义(P＜0.01),A、B两组手术前后VCSS分差为(4.6±2.5)分和(4.3±2.7)分(P＞0.05).结论 利用射频闭合术联合TriVex刨吸术治疗下肢静脉功能不全有效,且微创、并发症少.CEAP临床分级和VCSS临床记分可用于其疗效评价.     

应激性溃疡时幽门区局部一氧化氮含量变化对胆汁返流的影响及机理探讨

目的探讨胆汁返流与幽门区局部神经递质一氧化氮的变化对应激性溃疡发病的影响及可能的机理。方法采用冷束缚应激方法复制应激性溃疡的动物模型，将60只成年SD大鼠分为两部分，第1部分：对照组10只，溃疡组30只，用于观测影响应激性溃疡发生的相关因素；第2部分：左旋硝基精氨酸甲酯（L—NAME）预处理组10只（L—NAME组），生理盐水预处理组10只（生理盐水组），用于观测幽门区局部一氧化氮含量变化对其他因素的影响。分别检测各组胃内胆汁酸浓度、胃黏膜溃疡指数（Guth评分）以及胃内pH值，用生化试剂盒检测幽门区一氧化氮的含量。结果溃疡组应激结束后1h幽门区一氧化氮含量达到峰值（P〈0．01），应激结束后2h胃内胆汁酸浓度和pH值均达到峰值（P〈0．01），应激结束后4h胃内溃疡指数达到峰值（P〈0．01）。L-NAME组的胃内胆汁酸浓度、溃疡指数及一氧化氮含量较生理盐水组显著降低（P〈0．01，P〈0．05），而胃内pH值的差异无统计学意义（P〉0．05）。幽门区一氧化氮含量与胆汁酸浓度呈正相关（r=0．715，F=12．55，P=0．017）。结论幽门区一氧化氮含量变化与胆汁的返流量之间存在正相关关系，而L—NAME的幽门区局部干预使幽门区一氧化氮含量减少，幽门松弛程度降低，胆汁返流量也随之减少，进而降低溃疡指数，起到保护胃黏膜的作用。     

Comparison and validation of scoring systems in a cohort of patients treated for perforated peptic ulcer

Background and aims The aim of this study is to evaluate the predictive accuracy of different scoring systems on surgery for perforated peptic ulcer referred to an academic department of general surgery in a tertiary reference center. Patients and methods Seventy-five consecutive patients (Male/female ratio = 64:11; mean age, 44 years; range, 16–85) with perforated peptic ulcer disease were investigated. Disease severity scores and mortality predictions were calculated using the collected data during admission. Discrimination and calibration characteristics of each system, namely, the acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II and III, the simplified acute physiology score II, and the mortality probability models (MPM) II, were determined by using the area under receiver operating characteristics curve and the Hosmer–Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test, respectively. Results Among the 75 patients included, there were eight (10.6%) mortalities. All systems had a reliable power of discrimination and calibration. Among the systems tested, MPM II was the best performing as far as discrimination and calibration characteristics were considered. The parameters of MPM II system that were related to systemic perfusion of the patient were significantly positive in patients who died compared to those who survived. Conclusions MPM II that predicted mortality at admission is better than the other systems in predicting mortality. Results also indicate the importance of maintenance of systemic perfusion of the patient at the early phases of peptic ulcer perforation.     

模特征对伴单侧坐骨神经痛的腰椎间盘突出症的诊断价值

目的：介绍与验证一种反映腰椎间盘突出伴单侧坐骨神经痛的体征——模特征。方法：选取72例经腰椎MRI证实有腰椎间盘突出（L4，532例，L5／S1 40例）并伴单侧坐骨神经痛的患者，男49例，女23例，年龄32～68岁，平均50．7岁。每例患者人院当日由两位医师间隔2h分别检查，患者背对检查者，嘱其取最能缓解坐骨神经痛的站立姿势，若患者出现患侧屈髋屈膝、骨盆倾向患侧的姿势，记为“模特征阳性”，否则记为“模特征阴性”。同时行直腿抬高试验（SLR），阳性患者记录诱发下肢放射痛的最小角度。结果：70例患者两检查者结果完全相同，其中阳性60例，阴性10例，敏感性为85．7％；仅2例患者两检查者结果不一致，重复性97．2％。SLR均为阳性。结论：模特征是诊断伴单侧坐骨神经痛腰椎间盘突出症的简单、敏感的临床体征。
