Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) and neck of femur fractures: Standardising the perioperative management and time to surgery

Demographic projections for hip fragility fractures indicate a rising annual incidence by virtue of a multimorbid, ageing population with more noncommunicable diseases (NCDs). NCDs are characterised by slow progression and long duration ranging from ischaemic cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease, diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease to various cancers. Management of this disease burden often involves commencing patients on oral anticoagulants to reduce the risk of thromboembolic events. The use of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in clinical practice has increased due to their rapid onset of action, short half-life and predictable anticoagulant effects, without the need for routine monitoring. Safe and timely surgical intervention relies on reversal of anticoagulants. However, the lack of specific evidence-based guidelines for the perioperative management of patients on DOACs with hip fractures has proved challenging; in particular, the accessibility of DOAC-specific assays, justification of the cost-benefit ratio of targeted reversal agents and indications for neuraxial anaesthesia. This has led to potentially avoidable delays in surgical intervention. Following a literature review of the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics of commonly used DOACs in our region including the role of surrogate markers, we propose a systematic, evidence-based guideline to the perioperative management of hip fractures DOACs. We believe this standardised protocol can be easily replicated between hospitals. We recommend that if patients are deemed suitable for a general anaesthesia, with satisfactory renal function, optimal surgical time should be 24 h following the last ingested dose of DOAC.     

艾尔巴韦/格拉瑞韦治疗慢性丙型肝炎患者疗效初步观察

目的 初步探讨应用艾尔巴韦/格拉瑞韦治疗慢性丙型肝炎(CHC)患者的疗效。方法 2017年3月~2018年3月仙桃市第一人民医院感染病科收治的CHC患者82例,被随机分为对照组41例和观察组41例,分别给予聚乙二醇干扰素-α联合利巴韦林治疗和艾尔巴韦/格拉瑞韦治疗,两组均连续治疗24周。采用RT- PCR法检测血清 HCV RNA,采用全基因序列测定法行病毒基因分型。比较两组早期病毒学应答(EVR)、治疗结束时病毒学应答(ETVR)和持续病毒学应答(SVR)。结果 在治疗结束时,观察组血清丙氨酸氨基转移酶(ALT)水平为(47.9±19.7)U/L,显著低于对照组【(63.5±21.2)U/L,P<0.05】,天冬氨酸氨基转移酶(AST)水平为(55.5±22.3)U/L,显著低于对照组【(81.3±25.8)U/L,P<0.05】;观察组EVR、ETVR和SVR分别为48.8%、63.4%和70.7%,与对照组的41.5%、53.7%和65.8%比,无统计学差异(P>0.05);18例观察组非HCV Ⅰ型感染者EVR、ETVR和SVR分别为88.9%、94.4%和88.9%,显著高于同组23例HCV Ⅰ型感染者(分别为52.2%、60.9%和52.2%, P<0.05),而与对照组15例非HCV Ⅰ型感染者比,无统计学差异(分别为86.7%、93.3%和73.3%, P>0.05);观察组SVR₁₂为87.8%(36/41),显著高于对照组的73.2%(30/41,P<0.05)。结论 应用直接抗病毒(DAA)药物艾尔巴韦/格拉瑞韦治疗CHC患者近期疗效达到,但远期疗效似优于标准治疗方案, 值得临床进一步验证。     

带手套穿刺对留置套管针一次成功率的影响

为探讨戴手套与不戴手套穿刺对留置静脉套管针一次成功率的影响 ,为护理人员的自身防护提供科学依据 ,选取冠状动脉搭桥术病人 12 0例 ,随机分为实验组和对照组 ,实验组采用戴手套穿刺法 ,对照组采用常规洗手后不戴手套穿刺法。结果两组一次穿刺成功率经χ2 检验 ,无统计学意义( χ2 =0 .5 6 3,P >0 .0 5 )。说明戴手套留置套管针并不影响一次穿刺成功率。     

直接数字化X线摄影在腰椎侧位影像中的应用价值

目的探讨直接数字化X线摄影（direct digitized radiography，DDR）在腰椎侧位影像中的应用价值。方法随机抽取81例患者的DDR腰椎侧位影像，使用图像后处理方法中多级图像对比增益法，又称“交响乐”功能（multi—scale image contrast amplification，MUSICA）进行后处理，同时取另81例患者进行普通X线摄影，由放射科经验丰富的医生、技师各2名对所有的腰椎侧位影像进行分析，采用常规影像质量评价指标评价两组的影像质量。结果（1）DDR腰椎侧位影像质量影像评分为13．00，普通X线影像评分为8．96，经非参数检验的配对符号秩和检验，依赖负秩计算的统计量（X^2=-7．88，P〈0．01），两组差异有统计学意义，DDR腰椎侧位组明显优于普通平片组；（2）81例中DDR腰椎图像显示满意率为92．6％（75／81），普通X线平片显示满意率为61．7％（50／81），两者差异有统计学意义（X^2=21．89，P〈0．01）。结论与普通X线影像相比，DDR影像能更好的显示下部腰椎椎体、附件及周围软组织，可获得良好的图像，有利于放射诊断工作。

Direct solution to an optimal control problem of econometric systems

A direct solution is proposed to an optimal control problem of linear econometric systems with a quadratic welfare loss function when there are linear equality constraints on the control variables. The direct solution proposed here eliminates the problem of non-uniqueness of the optimal solution, which is present when this optimal control problem is solved using the recursive algorithm proposed by Chow,¹ Pindyck² and Tan.³ If a unique solution to the optimal control problem exists, then the direct solution and the recursive solution coincide.
