0149). Male patients experienced a significant decrease of CobbG during the first 6 months after surgery as well as patients with osteoporosis within 12 months after ACDF. After ACDF the SSP change weakly correlated with the GSP change. CONCLUSION SSP change after 1- or 2-level ACDF correlates mostly weakly with GSP change. Male gender and osteoporosis were identified as risk factors for global lordotisation following ACDF.AIM Endometriosis is an inflammatory condition that shares a number of similarities with malignant diseases, such as an abnormal morphology, migration along the nerve bundles and metastatic spread to lymph nodes and distant organs. Endometriotic lesions are associated with oestrogen and progesterone imbalance which seems to play a key role in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. The aim of this study was to compare the status of both oestrogen and progesterone receptors in tissue of deep infiltrating endometriosis, lymph node endometriosis and atypical ovarian endometriosis using immunohistochemical methods, as well as to investigate the relationship between endometriosis and protein p53. METHODS A total of 40 cases with deep infiltrating endometriosis were included in our study. Based on histopathological analysis of resected specimens, the cases were divided into 2 groups group 1 - lymph node endometriosis (cases with lymph node involvement; n=12) and group 2 - deep infiltrating endometriosis (cases without lperplasia and involvement of the ganglia of the autonomic nervous system was detected in 5 cases (12.5%). Conlusion. From a histological and immunohistochemical point of view, deep infiltrating endometriosis and lymph node endometriosis appear to represent the same entity. For the first time, a simple immunohistochemical panel with antibodies against ER, PR and p53 useful in diagnosing atypical endometriosis has been described. The marked endometriosis-associated neural changes (endometriotic neuropathy) could be one of the causes of impaired function of the affected organs after debulking surgery with macroscopic negative resection margins as well as pain symptomatology in macroscopic inapparent endometriotic lesions.in English, Spanish La Ponencia de Programa y Registro de Vacunaciones se creó en 1991 para asesorar al Consejo Interterritorial del Sistema Nacional de Salud en el conocimiento de las enfermedades inmunoprevenibles y el establecimiento y evaluación de medidas para su prevención y control. Entre otras funciones, la Ponencia evalúa los programas de vacunación teniendo en cuenta la evidencia científica y la situación epidemiológica. De esta manera, asesora en la toma de decisiones que se realiza en la Comisión de Salud Pública del Consejo Interterritorial. Desde su creación, la Ponencia ha realizado recomendaciones desde el punto de vista técnico y científico en las modificaciones que se han realizado en el calendario de vacunación, incluyendo la incorporación de vacunas y el cambio de pautas de vacunación, desde el primer calendario del Consejo Interterritorial de 1996 hasta el actual calendario común de vacunación a lo largo de toda la vida. La Ponencia es considerada el Comité Técnico Asesor de Vacunaciones de España, tanto por las funciones que desarrolla como por la metodología utilizada para la elaboración de propuestas. En este artículo se revisan las funciones que desarrolla la Ponencia de Programa y Registro de Vacunaciones, las modificaciones que se han realizado en el calendario con su asesoramiento y los retos en el momento actual.BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to define whether the addition of thoracic lavage to chest drainage was more efficient than the use of chest drainage alone in the treatment for anastomotic leaks in type III esophageal atresia. MATERIAL AND METHODS The clinical data of 42 patients with anastomotic leakage treated with the addition of thoracic lavage from January 2012 to March 2019 in our hospital were analyzed retrospectively. The clinical data of 50 patients with anastomotic leakage treated without thoracic lavage from March 1999 to December 2011 in our hospital were selected as controls. RESULTS The duration of fistula healing, mechanical ventilation, hospitalization in intensive care unit, and gastric tube intubation in the thoracic lavage group were significantly shorter than those in the non-lavage group. www.selleckchem.com/TGF-beta.html The cost of hospitalization and the incidence of severe pneumonia were significantly lower in the thoracic lavage group than in the non-lavage group. The diameter of the anastomotic opening after anastomotic fistula healing was wider in the thoracic lavage group than in the non-lavage group. CONCLUSIONS The technique of thoracic lavage is simple, economical and convenient and can effectively promote the healing of anastomotic fistulas, accelerate postoperative recovery in children and reduce the cost of treatment.BACKGROUND Depression in China has risen from the 15th leading cause of all-cause disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) in 1990 to the 10th in 2017. However, the burden of depression and the epidemiological trend in Chinese provinces remain unclear. This study aimed to estimate the prevalence and burden of depression among different sexes, ages, disease types and provincial administrative units in China. METHODS Based on a general analysis of the Global Burden of Disease study (GBD) in 2017, we analyzed the age- sex- and province-specific prevalence and DALYs of depression in China from 1990 to 2017. RESULTS From 1990 to 2017, the all-age prevalence rate of depression per 100,000 rose from 3224.6 (95% UI2976.6-3509.1) to 3990.5 (95% UI 3667.8-4353.0), and the DALY rate per 100,000 rose from 525.1 (95% UI 373.5-719.0) to 607.4 (95% UI 427.7-820.2). The prevalence rate decreased in the population aged 5-54 years, and increased in the population aged over 55 years. In 2017, the prevalence rate of females (5039.6, 95% UI 4630.0-5502.8) was significantly higher than that of males (2984.9, 95% UI 2736.0-3265.3). The prevalence and DALY rate increased in all provinces. However, the age-standardized prevalence and DALYs rate decreased in 31 provinces. CONCLUSIONS Depression has gradually become a major public health issue in China. The government should take measures to prevent the development of depression immediately. Women and the elderly are at high risk for depression.
