RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE@#To compare the clinical effect of three types of Kirschner wire tension band for olecranon fracture.@*METHODS@#The clinical data of 64 patients with olecranon fracture treated by Kirschner wire tension band fixation from March 2016 to May 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 19 patients were treated with intramedullary K-wires fixation(group A) including 8 males and 11 females with an average of (48.2±18.3) years old, 3 patients were typeⅠ, and 16 patients were typeⅡ according to Mayo classification;20 patients were treated with transcortical K-wires fixation (group B) including 13 males and 7 females with an average of (43.5±20.4) years old, 3 patients were typeⅠand 17 patients were typeⅡ according to Mayo classification;25 patients were treated with perforated Kirschner wire(group C) including 15 males and 10 females with an average of (55.2±17.5) years old, 4 patients were typeⅠand 21 patients were typeⅡ according to Mayo classification. The operative time, intraoperative blood loss, times of Intraoperative fluoroscopy, fracture healing time and complications of 3 groups were compared. At the final follow-up, elbow function was assessed using the Mayo Elbow Function Scale.@*RESULTS@#There were differences in operative time, intraoperative fluoroscopy times, postoperative VAS and soft tissue irritation among the three groups(P<0.05). The operative time, intraoperative fluoroscopy times in group A and C was better than that in group B. The postoperative VAS score, skin irritability in group C was better than that of group B. The difference was statistically significant on Mayo elbow function score at the final follow-up among three groups(P<0.05), the scores of group A and C were higher than that of group B.@*CONCLUSION@#Compared with transcortical K-wires screw fixation, both intramedullary K-wires screw fixation and perforated Kirschner wire fixation, which can significantly reduce the occurrence of soft tissue irritation, reduce surgical complications and shorten the operation time.

OBJECTIVE: To re-evaluate t he methodology quality of published systematic review/Meta-analysis of antidepressants in the treatment of post-stroke depression. METHODS :Retrieved from Cochrane Library ,PubMed,Embase, SinoMed,CNKI,Wanfang database ,VIP,CBM and other databases ,systematic review/Meta-analysis of antidepressants in the treatment of post-stroke depression were collected during the inception to Dec. 2019. After literature screening and data extraction , methodology quality of included literatures were evaluated by using the AMSTAR scale. RESULTS :A total of 33 systematic reviews/Meta-analysis were included ,involving 523 RCTs and 41 020 patients. Average score of AMSTAR methodological quality evaluation was 6.76. Citalopram ,duloxetine and paroxetine were effective for the therapy of post-stroke depression ,but the conclusions about the effectiveness among antide-pressants were not consistents. The ADR incidence of Paroxetine was low. It was not clear that sertraline and citalopram may improve the neurological function of patients. CONCLUSIONS :The methodological quality of systematic review/Meta-analysis of antidepressants in the treatment of post-stroke depression is medium ,and the conclusions about the effectiveness of antidepressants ,improvement of daily life ability and the recovery of neurological function are still controversial.
RESUMEN
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To retrospectively analysis the curative effect of wrist scaphoid bone fracture,and explore the causes and preventive methods of misdiagnosis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From September 2007 to September 2010,16 patients with wrist scaphoid bone fractures were treated with plaster cast and cannulated screws fixation. There were 10 males and 6 females,ranging in age from 26 to 44 years with an average of 35 years. Among them, 12 cases manifested swelling pain of radial lateral wrist, tenderness at snuffbox area, wrist pain aggravated when stretching wrist joint, thumb or forefinger; 4 cases manifested no obviously symptoms and limited movement; 9 cases were early diagnosed; 5 cases were treated by plaster cast; 4 cases were treated with cannulated screws fixation; Among 7 cases with misdiagnosis, there were 4 cases without obvious symptoms and they were dealt with activating blood to dissipate swelling and pain process in preliminary stage. Four cases were treated with plaster cast and 3 cases with cannulated screws fixation.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All the patients were followed up from 3 months to 39 months (averaged 21 months). Among 16 patients, 9 cases were early diagnosis, 7 cases were misdiagnosis and the rate of misdiagnosis was 43.8%. Seven cases with screws fixation were no wound infection. There was 1 case with occurred chronic pain and declining wrist mobility in both plaster cast and screw group, and both of them were misdiagnosed. According to curative effect rating criteria,these 2 cases were classified into moderate, other 14 cases were excellent.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Wrist scaphoid bone fracture are easy to misdiagnose, so early diagnosis and treatment is particularly important. The main causes of misdiagnosis are nonspecific symptoms at early stage, combination with other injuries, lack of knowledge and ignorance of the further examination. Therefore, detailed inquiries and particular examination, multi-dimensional radiography and CT scan or MRI scan are the main measures for prevention.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the clinical efficacy of the endobutton in the treatment of acute acromioclavicular joint dislocation by reconstructing coracoclavicular ligaments.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From October 2008 to January 2010,12 patients with acute acromioclavicular joint dislocation were immobilized with the endobutton. All the patients had the dislocations of or above type III according to Rockwood classification. Among the patients, 9 patients were male and 3 patients were female, with an average age of 55 years (ranged from 31 to 83 years). Eight patients had injuries in the left, and 4 patients in the right. Four patients had accompanied injuries of rib fractures, 2 patients had brain injuries,and 1 patient had femoral fracture. Seven patients were injured by traffic accident, 4 patients were injured by falling down,and 1 patient was sports injuries. All the patients had pain and tenderness at the shoulder, positive piano sign, and shoulder confined activity. The duration from injury to operation ranged from 2 days to 10 days (averaged 6 days). The therapeutic effects were evaluated by Karlsson criteria based on range of motion of acromioclavicular joint, subjective feeling,and postoperative X-ray.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All the patients were followed up, and the duration ranged from 4 months to 19 months (averaged 11 months). The motion of the shoulder joint recovered to normal about 15 to 35 days after operation. There were no displacement, dislocation and redislocation occurred. All the patients got A degree results according to Karlsson criteria.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Reconstruction of coracoclavicular ligament by using the endobutton to treat acute acromioclavicular dislocation of or above type III is a perfect method with advantage of rigid fixation, micro-injury, and early functional exercise.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the value of serum Cystatin C (Cyst C) in the evaluation of glomerular filtration function in children with viral encephalitis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Serum levels of Cyst C, urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine (Cr) were measured in 92 children with viral encephalitis and in 50 healthy children as a control group. According to glomerular filtration rate (GFR), the encephalitis group was subdivided into normal renal function, renal insufficiency in the compensatory or decompensatory stage, and renal failure /end-stage groups.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Serum levels of Cyst C, BUN and Cr in the encephalitis group increased and GFR decreased significantly compared with those in the control group (P<0.01). With the decline of renal function, GFR decreased and serum levels of Cyst C, BUN and Cr increased gradually. Serum levels of Cyst C and GFR were significantly different among the encephaitis subgroups (P<0.01). For serum levels of BUN and Cr, there were significant differences among the subgroups except between the normal renal function and the compensatory renal insufficiency groups. Serum Cyst C level was positively correlated with serum BUN and Cr levels, and negatively correlated with GFR.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The children with viral encephalitis have different degrees of renal impairments. Cyst C appears to be superior to BUN and Cr as a marker for the evaluation of glomerular filtration function. Measurement of serum Cyst C levels is very valuable in renal function monitoring in children with viral encephalitis.</p>
