电针治疗周围性面瘫疗效观察

目的:寻找能提高治疗周围性面瘫疗效的适宜的电针波型.方法:将147例周围性面瘫患者随机分为治疗组和对照组,治疗组进行穴位分组,电针波型先用连续波后用疏密波治疗;对照组穴位不分组,并单纯采用连续波治疗.结果:两组的总有效率和痊愈所用时间经统计学处理,差异有非常显著性意义(P＜0.01).结论:在电针治疗周围性面瘫中,将疏密波和连续波配合使用,效果显著优于单纯使用连续波者.     

大脑中动脉支架内血栓形成1例报告

支架内血栓形成是支架置入术后的一种常见并发症。术后血管内皮损伤、胶原组织暴露和作为异物的支架均为引发血栓形成的可能机制。不能及时识别处理则成为再狭窄的重要原因。我们报告1例发生在大脑中动脉（middle cerebral artery，MCA）支架内的血栓形成，探讨其识别处理过程和可能的机制。     

医用水刀的临床研究进展

人们发明了各种不同的手术工具,以便减少手术的危险。连续水流切割提供了一个相对出血量少的解剖过程,并且为手术者提供了一个清晰的视角。高压水流在解剖动脉外膜和邻近于脉管的软组织器官时性能优势,选择性的结扎能够完全的保护脉管和尿路。减少手术时间。因此,深入的研究这项技术是很有必要的。     

Correlates of lifetime suicide attempts among individuals with affective disorders in a Chinese rural community.

The aim of this study was to compare the demographic and clinical characteristics of individuals with affective disorders who had attempted suicide at some time in their lives and those who had not made a suicide attempt. In a Chinese rural community, individuals with suicide attempt (N = 30) and those without suicide attempt (N = 166) were assessed with Present State Examination (PSE). Attempters had a significantly higher level of family economic status, higher rate of lifetime depressed mood and hopelessness, and delusions than nonattempters. The logistic regression models also indicated that depressed mood and hopelessness were the most important predictors of suicide attempts. No significant difference in treatment condition was found between attempters and non-attempters. Early identification and interventions focusing on reducing depressed mood, hopelessness, and controlling psychotic symptoms may be helpful in reducing the risk of suicide attempts among individuals with affective disorders residing in the community.     

Klippel-Feil syndrome plus atretic meningocele in one identical twin and anencephaly in the other.

Klippel-Feil syndrome (KFS) is a heterogeneous entity, characterized by specific congenital anomalies of segmentation of the cervical spine. We report a case of KFS plus atretic meningocele in one identical twin and anencephaly in the other. These identical twins were both male with no chromosome defect. One of them had anencephaly diagnosed at the gestational age of 17 weeks and died soon after birth, whereas the co-twin had KFS with multiple congenital anomalies including short neck with low hairline, occipital atretic meningocele, butterfly vertebrae, hemivertebrae, cervico-thoracic scoliosis, left thumb preaxial polydactyly, and right undescended testis. He received rehabilitation during infancy and could walk at the age of 15 months. Both of these infants had preaxial polydactyly, which is an uncommon anomaly associated with KFS. In conclusion, iniencephaly and anencephaly are probably the extreme manifestations of KFS rather than different dysraphisms. Prompt clinical suspicion with early diagnostic imaging for spine lesions and occult opening of neural tube is mandatory for further intervention and rehabilitation.     

肾血管平滑肌脂肪瘤23例并文献复习

目的探讨肾血管平滑肌脂肪瘤的诊治方法.方法回顾性分析23例肾血管平滑肌脂肪瘤患者的临床资料并结合文献讨论其诊断与治疗问题.结果术前误诊为肾癌3例,23例均行不同手术治疗,术后病理证实为肾血管平滑肌脂肪瘤,术前选择性肾动脉栓塞或术中低温下阻断肾蒂可显著减少出血和不必要的肾切除.结论B超、CT是诊断本病的主要检查方法,彩超具有较好的良性疾病提示率,术中诊断不明者行多点取材冰冻切片具有重要意义,手术原则是尽可能保留肾单位.     

End-of-life Models and Emergency Department Care

Many people die in emergency departments (EDs) across the United States from sudden illnesses or injuries, an exacerbation of a chronic disease, or a terminal illness. Frequently, patients and families come to the ED seeking lifesaving or life-prolonging treatment. In addition, the ED is a place of transition-patients usually are transferred to an inpatient unit, transferred to another hospital, or discharged home. Rarely are patients supposed to remain in the ED. Currently, there is an increasing amount of literature related to end-of-life care. However, these end-of-life care models are based on chronic disease trajectories and have difficulty accommodating sudden-death trajectories common in the ED. There is very little information about end-of-life care in the ED. This article explores ED culture and characteristics, and examines the applicability of current end-of-life care models.
