ADAM33 polymorphisms and susceptibility to allergic rhinitis: a meta-analysis

European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology - Several polymorphisms in a disintegrin and metalloproteinase 33 (ADAM33) have been implicated in susceptibility to allergic rhinitis (AR), but the...     

Uncalcified Synovial Chondromatosis in the Pisotriquetral Joint

Synovial chondromatosis is a rare lesion in the wrist, but some cases in the distal radioulnar joint have been reported and previous case reports emphasize joint calcifications, shown on preoperative plain radiographs. We report an extremely uncommon case of synovial chondromatosis in the pisotriquetral joint, in which radiographs and magnetic resonance imaging did not demonstrate apparent calcified bodies. In our case, for the accurate diagnosis and treatment, surgical exploration of the joint and synovectomy with removal of loose bodies was performed.     

鼓膜穿刺加压灌注治疗分泌性中耳炎的临床疗效

目的探讨鼓膜穿刺加压灌注疗法治疗分泌性中耳炎的临床疗效。方法选择确诊为分泌性中耳炎患者88例为研究对象,所有患者采用中耳鼓膜穿刺鼓室灌注加压治疗。比较不同性质分泌物患者的临床疗效及治疗前后患者鼓室导抗图变化。结果胶冻状患者治疗时间最长,浆液性患者治疗时间最短,三组治疗时间比较差异有统计学意义(P<0.01)。浆液性总有效率94.0%,黏液性总有效率86.8%,胶冻状总有效率75.0%,三组比较有显著差异(P<0.05)。治疗前鼓室导图主要是B型,治疗后主要是A型,治疗前后比较差异有统计学意义(P<0.01)。结论鼓膜穿刺加压灌注治疗分泌性中耳炎具有较好的临床疗效。
