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。     

In Vivo Kinematics of Functional Ankle Instability Patients and Lateral Ankle Sprain Copers During Stair Descent

Patients with mechanic ankle instability experience increased tibiotalar and subtalar joint laxity. However, in vivo joint kinematics in functional ankle instability (FAI) patients and lateral ankle sprain (LAS) copers, especially during dynamic activities, are poorly understood. Ten FAI patients, 10 LAS copers, and 10 healthy controls were included in this study. A dual fluoroscopic imaging system was used to analyze the tibiotalar and subtalar joint kinematics during stair descent. Five key poses of stair descent were analyzed. Kinematic data from six degrees of freedom were calculated utilizing a solid modeling software. The range of motion and joint positions in each degree of freedom were compared among the three groups. The tibiotalar joints of FAI patients and LAS copers were significantly more inverted than those of healthy controls during the foot strike (p = 0.016, = 0.264). The subtalar joints of FAI patients were significantly more anteriorly translated (pose 2, p = 0.003, = 0.352; pose 3, p < 0.001, = 0.454; pose 4, p = 0.004, = 0.334), inverted (pose 4, p = 0.027, = 0.234; pose 5,p = 0.034, = 0.221), and externally rotated (pose 4, p = 0.037, = 0.217; pose 5; p = 0.004, = 0.331) than those of healthy controls during the mid‐stance and the heel off. The FAI patients showed excessive tibiotalar inversion and subtalar joint hypermobility during stair descent. Meanwhile, the LAS copers maintained subtalar joint stability, and only showed excessive tibiotalar inversion in foot strike. These data provide insight into the mechanisms behind the development of FAI after initial LAS. © 2019 Orthopaedic Research Society. Published by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Hypertension is a risk factor for adverse outcomes in patients with coronavirus disease 2019: a cohort study

Abstract

Background

Comorbidities are commonly seen in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), but the clinical implication is not yet well-delineated. We aim to characterize the prevalence and clinical implications of comorbidities in patients with COVID-19.
