Objective To investigate whether antipsychotic drugs will increase the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) and pulmonary embolism (PE), and to provide evidence for the prevention of VTE and PE in patients with APs exposure. Methods Databases including PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI, VIP and Elsevier were searched from inception to July 2016 to collect case-control studies and cohort studies on the association between APs exposure and the risk of VTE and PE. The literature were screened according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, the data were extracted and the bias risk of the included studies were evaluated by two reviewers independently. The Meta-analysis was performed by using Stata 12 software. Results Nineteen studies were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that APs exposure was associated with VTE (OR=1.50, 95%CI 1.30 to 1.74,P<0.001). Exposure to low-potency FGA (OR=2.28, 95%CI 1.02 to 5.10,P=0.045), high-potency FGA (OR=1.68, 95%CI 1.37 to 2.05,P<0.001) and SGA (OR=1.74, 95%CI 1.24 to 2.44,P=0.001) revealed an increased risk of VTE. Exposure to APs also signi?cantly increase the risk of PE (OR=3.69, 95%CI 1.23 to 11.07,P=0.02), especially exposure to FGA (OR=2.54, 95%CI 1.22 to 5.32,P=0.013), but exposure to SGA could not revealed an increased risk of PE. Conclusion FGA and SGA exposure maybe associated with an increase in the risk of developing VTE. And exposure to the FGA could increase the risk of PE. The occurrence of VTE and PE should be monitored when taking Aps.
Objective To summarize the nutritional management strategies of patients undergoing electively gastrointestinal surgery. Methods This article reviewed the recent researches on perioperative nutritional management in electively gastrointestinal surgery, including four major directions: preoperative nutritional evaluation, glucose level control, nutritional type, and immunonutrition. Results At present, preoperative nutritional evaluation methods included anthropometry, laboratory tests, subjective global assessment (SGA), nutritional risk screening (NRS) 2002, Reilly nutritional risk screening, nutritional risk indicator (NRI), and so on. For preoperative nutritional assessment system, however, current data could not single out superiority for any nutritional assessment methods in the ability to predict surgery-related complications. The usage of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol to reduce surgical stress and preclude postoperative insulin resistance had recently been clearly linked to reductions in postoperative morbidity and adverse outcomes. There were specific criterias for perioperative parenteral and enteral nutrition in undernourished patients, who were defined in clinical guidelines recently, such as the Guidelines for Adult Perioperative Nutrition Support issued by Chinese Society of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (CSPEN). Several systematic reviews showed that immunonutrition could reduce both morbidity and length of stay after major electively gastrointestinal surgery. Conclusion Perioperative nutritional management can ensure patients benefit from nutritional support by nutritional assessment, can reduce the nutritional risk and metabolic disorder caused by operation, can achieve the goal of optimal nutrition support in surgical patients, and can ultimately reduce postoperative complications.

Objective To investigate the effectiveness of double-needle suture for mixed meniscus tear repair under arthroscope. Methods Between April 2006 and January 2011, 22 patients with mixed meniscus tear were treated with double-needle suture under arthroscope. There were 14 males and 8 females, aged 18-41 years (mean, 31.3 years). All injuries were caused by sports. The time between injury and admission ranged from 2 days to 4 years (median, 11 months). International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score was 42.5 ± 15.2, Lysholm score was 45.5 ± 13.5, and Tegner score was 2.9 ± 1.6. Seventeen cases complicated with anterior cruciate ligament injury. Results Healing of incision by first intention was achieved in all patients. No injury of nerve and blood occurred. The patients were followed up 12-48 months with an average of 27.6 months. According to Barrett et al. standard, 19 cases (86%) got clinical healing. The IKDC, Lysholm, and Tegner scores were improved to 77.1 ± 8.9, 79.8 ± 9.9, and 6.8 ± 1.6 respectively at last follow-up, showing significant differences when compared with preoperative scores (P lt; 0.05). Conclusion Arthroscopic meniscus repair using double-needle suture can provide good effectiveness because it has high firmness.
Objective To summarize the recent progress in pathogenetic, diagnostic and therapeutic researches on the intestinal barrier dysfunction (IBD) of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). MethodsThe advancement of IBD in SAP, which was published recently at home and abroad, was collected and reviewed. Results The pathogenesis of IBD in patients with SAP was complex. Ischemia-reperfusion injury, endotoxin, inflammatory mediators and gastrointestinal hormone played an important role in the process of IBD. There were many ways to detect IBD, and the ratio of lactulose and mannitol, plasma diamine oxidase were relatively ideal markers. Medical therapies, such as treatment of SAP and maintaining the perfusion of intestines, were essential to cure IBD. On this basis, the propulsives, nutritional support and traditional Chinese drugs should be administered reasonably. Conclusions IBD is a sophisticated process of pathophysiology. In recent years, abundant of animal experiments and clinical researches have provided new clue for prevention and cure of IBD, but further researches are still needed on the mechanism of the cells and molecules implicated.
Objective To assess the risk factors associated with postoperative infection after elective abdominal operation for elderly in department of general surgery. Methods One hundred and fifty-nine consecutive elderly patients admitted to the department of general surgery in our hospital for elective abdominal operation between May 2010 and February 2012 were considered for inclusion and retrospectively analyzed. Thirty-eight patients (23.90%)with postoperative infection were taken as the infection group and 121 patients without postoperative infection as noninfection group. The differences in the objective physiological indicators, subjective health status indicators, operation status, the incidence of postoperative infective complications, and mortality were compared between the two groups. Results Of enrolled 159 patients in this study, the incidence of postoperative infective complications was 23.90% (38/159); 2 patients died, and the postoperative mortality rate was 1.26%. Single factor and multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative malnutrition risk, history of diabetes, and chronic respiratory system disease were the independent risk factors of postoperative infection complications in elective abdominal surgery for elderly patients. Conclusion Improving preoperative respiratory function, diabetes mellitus, and nutritional status would help to reduce incidence of postoperative infection for elderly patients with elective abdominal operation.
Objective To discuss the clinical application value of CT angiography (CTA) in traumatic pelvic artery pseudoaneurysm and dissecting aneurysm. Methods A total of 8 patients including 7 with traumatic pelvic artery pseudoaneurysm and 1 with dissecting aneurysm diagnosed by CTA in Suining Central Hospital from August 2012 to January 2016 were enrolled in this study, in whom 6 patients with traumatic pseudoaneurysm treated with embolotherapy were confirmed by digital subtraction angiography. Image post-processing techniques of CTA including curve planar reformation, multiplanar reconstruction and volume rendering were used. Results In the seven patients diagnosed as solitary traumatic pelvic artery pseudoaneurysm by CTA, 3 had superior gluteal artery pseudoaneurysm, 2 had inferior gluteal artery pseudoaneurysm, and 2 had external iliac artery pseudoaneurysm. The 7 pseudoaneurysms were pouch-shaped with the short diameters ranged from 9 to 64 mm and the long diameters ranged from 11 to 78 mm. Six locations of artery laceration were displayed clearly, thereinto 1 case was combined with arteriovenous fistula. In addition, a vessel occlusion caused by the limitation of right external iliac artery dissecting aneurysm and the thrombosis in left side of the external iliac artery was found in 1 case. Conclusions As a non-invasive diagnostic technique, CTA can accurately diagnose traumatic pelvic artery pseudoaneurysm and dissecting aneurysm, clearly display the location relationship of pseudoaneurysm and its parent artery, and find whether arteriovenous fistula exists. Beyond that, the true and false lumen of dissecting aneurysm can be precisely identified by this technique. CTA can provide important image information for formulating individual treatment plan.
COPD 是一种可预防、可治疗, 以气流不完全可逆受限并呈进行性发展为特征的疾病, 与肺部对有害气体或有毒颗粒的异常炎症反应有关。在全球范围内COPD 是引起死亡和功能致残的主要疾病之一。COPD 在全球患病率和死亡率位居第四, 并呈不断上升的趋势[1] 。本病具有明显的肺外效应, 包括引起全身系统性炎症、代谢改变、神经激素激活,以及对肌肉骨骼、心血管系统等其他系统的影响等[2] 。既往认为COPD 仅引起红细胞增多, 但近期研究发现COPD 引起的系统性炎症可影响红细胞的生成, 贫血亦同样存在于部分COPD 患者。目前认为, COPD导致的贫血与其他许多慢性疾病如慢性心衰一样, 同属于一种慢性病性贫血( anemia of chronic disease, ACD) , 称为COPD 相关性贫血, 其患病率高于继发性红细胞增多症在COPD 的患病率[3-5] 。本文就COPD 相关性贫血的流行病学概况、病理生理机制、临床重要性及干预的最新研究进展如下综述。
