关节镜辅助下钢板内固定治疗关节内跟骨骨折

[目的]探讨分析关节镜辅助下钢板内固定治疗关节内跟骨骨折的方法和疗效;[方法]对78位患者，86例累及关节面的跟骨骨折在关节镜辅助下行切开复位钢板内固定术，术后平均随访18个月（12～30个月），通过比较术前术后X线片和踝足功能的AOFAS评分对治疗效果作分析评价．[结果]86例关节内跟骨骨折术后X线示复位满意．与术前存在显著性差异（P〈0．01），AOFAS评分优良率91．86％．[结论]对于关节内跟骨骨折，采用关节镜辅助钢板内固定更加接近解剖复位，足部功能恢复满意且并发症少     

2型糖尿病患者脂蛋白（a）水平、载脂蛋白（a）多态性和冠状动脉粥样硬化严重程度的关系

背景:针对糖尿病患者Lp(a)水平和冠状动脉疾病(CAD)严重程度之间关系的研究较少并且结论有争议。另外,目前尚无关于apo(a)多态性与上述疾病关系的研究。本研究旨在探讨大样本2型糖尿病患者中冠状动脉粥样硬化的程度与Lp(a)水平及apo(a)多态性的相关性。方法:连续选取227例2型糖     

The multiform and variable patterns of onset of orofacial granulomatosis

BACKGROUND: The recurrent chronic orofacial swelling caused by orofacial granulomatosis (OFG) can cause significant cosmetic and functional problems but can be prevented if the disease is diagnosed early and promptly treated. Although the enlargement of the lips is described to be the most common presenting complaint, the clinical onset of OFG may be characterized by minor associated mucosal and neurological manifestations, making early diagnosis very difficult or, sometimes, merely presumable. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical manifestations of 19 patients with OFG, who were examined at our institution between 1998 and 2002, in order to determine their initial manifestations and presenting symptoms. RESULTS: A total of 10 patients showed classical recurrent enlargement of the lips (six lower; four upper) as presenting symptom. In the other nine patients, OFG onset was characterized by transient unilateral facial nerve palsy (two cases), intraoral manifestations (two cases), recurrent swelling of the periorbital area (two cases), of the chin (one case), of the zygomatic area (one case), and of the cheeks (one case). CONCLUSION: Our data underlined that OFG onset could be frequently characterized by widely variable, multiform, and temporary clinical findings. Involvement of atypical sites of the orofacial region and presence of single minor manifestations may occur as presenting symptoms, often preceding the development of traditional clinical findings.     

The finding of the nematode Daniconema anguillae Moravec et Køie, 1987 (Spirurida, Dracunculoidea: Daniconematidae) in Lithuania

Summary The third-stage larvae of Daniconema anguillae Moravec et K?ie, 1987 are found in the eels fins caught from Dringis Lake (Lithuanian National park). The morphology of these larvae is briefly described.     

A Preliminary Study of Negative Self-Beliefs in Anorexia Nervosa: A Detailed Exploration of Their Content, Origins and Functional Links to “Not Eating Enough” and Other Characteristic Behaviors

Objective: The study explored the semantic content and origins of negative self-beliefs, and their functional links to “not eating enough” and other behaviors, in participants with anorexia nervosa (AN). Method: Fifteen women meeting DSM-IV criteria for AN were compared with 17 dieting and 18 non-dieting women matched on age and number of years of education. The main outcome measure was a semi-structured interview. Results: Six themes were identified in the beliefs of participants with AN. These were, in order of decreasing frequency, powerlessness (present in all but three AN participants), failure, defectiveness, unattractiveness, worthlessness and emptiness. Importantly, powerlessness and failure beliefs were consistently present independent of Beck Depression Inventory-II scores. The negative early life experiences associated with these beliefs had high distress and responsibility ratings. Participants with AN reported that they employed specific behaviors, particularly ‘not eating enough,’ and ‘placating others,’ to try to reduce the cognitive and emotional impact of their negative self-beliefs. Discussion: The findings are discussed in relation to the role of powerlessness and the function of “not eating enough” in cognitive theory and therapy for AN.
