Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted in 68 cases of multiple trauma combined with severe pelvic fractures in recent 10 years (from Jan. 2006 to Dec. 2015). There were 57 males and 11 females. Their age ranged from 19 to 75 years, averaging 42 years. Causes of injury included traffic accidents in 34 cases (2 cases of truck rolling), high falling injuries in 17 cases, crashing injuries in 15 cases, steel cable wound in 1 case, and seat belt traction injury in 1 case. There were 31 cases of head injury, 11 cases of chest injury, 56 cases of abdominal and pelvic injuries, and 37 cases of spinal and limb injuries. Therapeutic methods included early anti-shock measures, surgical hemostasis based on internal iliac artery devasculization for pelvic hemorrhage, and early treatment for combined organ damage and complications included embolization and repair of the liver, spleen and kidney, splenectomy, nephrectomy, intestinal resection, colostomy, bladder ostomy, and urethral repair, etc. Patients in this series received blood transfusion volume of 1200e10,000 mL, with an average volume of 2850 mL. Postoperative followup ranged from 6 months to 1.5 years. Results: The average score of ISS in this series was 38.6 points. 49 cases were successfully treated and the total survival rate was 72.1%. Totally 19 patients died (average ISS score 42.4), including 6 cases of hemorrhagic shock, 8 cases of brain injury, 1 case of cardiac injury, 2 cases of pulmonary infection, 1 case of pulmonary embolism, and 1 case of multiple organ failure. Postoperative complications included 1 case of urethral stricture (after secondary repair), 1 case of sexual dysfunction (combined with urethral rupture), 1 case of lower limb amputation (femoral ar展开更多

This often requires treatment with high doses of IV T4, with or without doses of T3 as well, until the neoplasm is treated. This principle is demonstrated in the below case of a 65 y/o female with medical history significant for Ia Kappa multiple myeloma, complete heart block s/p AICD placement, and papillary thyroid cancer status post thyroidectomy in 2020, who had initially presented <span>with persistent bone pain, progressive encephalopathy and failure to thrive</span> with more than a 50 lb weight loss over a few months. Labs on presentation <span>were not remarkable for progression of her underlying multiple myeloma</span>, however<span style="font-family:;" "="">,</span><span style="font-family:;" "=""> she was found to have a new significantly elevated TSH. She underwent imaging with a CT chest, abdomen, and pelvis, which showed new hepatic lesions, subcutaneous nodules, and new pulmonary nodules with associated lymphadenopathy and a left-sided pleural effusion. CT-guided liver biopsy evinced a metastatic neuroendocrine carcinoma, further supported by an elevated calcitonin and chromogranin. She was treated with high dose IV T4 at 1.38 mcg/kg however continued to worsening thyroid function labs. She was then started on Liothyronine at 20 mcg and subsequently improved. This <span>patient’s case illustrates the importance of considering consumptive hypo</span>thy<span>roidism when thyroid profile abnormalities and symptoms of severe hypo</span>thyroidism are seen in the context of malignant neoplasms, and further illu<span>strates the important of considering T3 as part of the treatment regimen</span> when IV T4 is not resulting in improvement.</span>展开更多

A computerised tomography (CT) scan demonstrated a mass in the head of the pancreas with liver metastases. A liver biopsy demonstrated a well-differentiated neuroendocrine carcinoma. She was commenced on a somatostatin analogue. Three months later she presented with spontaneous bleeding. Blood test demonstrated results consistent with disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). A restaging CT scan showed evidence of disease progression. The DIC was felt to be due to the underlying progressive malignancy. Having considered the potential risks associated with cytotoxic therapy in the context of a consumptive coagulopathy, the patient was commenced on weekly Carboplatin. The patient’s blood counts improved rapidly, and her bruising and bleeding resolved. Following a few weeks of stable blood results and clinical stability, her cytotoxic treatment was changed to a combination of Carboplatin and Etoposide, and to date she remains well on treatment.展开更多

Illuminated by the mechanical system of the movement of matters, it comes up that ecological footprint based on consumption of biologic production could not tell whether the ecological pressure acts on the specified region, and the original ecological footprint theory also undervalued the development impartiality of a region. A modification on this theory is made by introducing consumptive ecological footprint and productive ecological footprint, in which the latter is taken as the indicator of regional sustainability. The development impartiality can be demonstrated by comparison between the global ecological deficit per capita and regional consumptive ecological deficit per capita.展开更多

Yield response to irrigation of different crops is of major importance in production planning where water resources are limited. This study aims to determine the effect of different irrigation treatment (deficit irrigation) and potassium humate fertilizer on yield, content of nitrogen, potassium, and phosphor in tuber of potato and water use efficiency in the Abu-Graib Region, Iraq. Potato was grown under drip irrigation with three treatments: irrigation applied when evaporation 75%, 100% and 125% from pan A, and three potassium humate fertilizers: 0, 1.2 and 2.4 kg/ha with three times additions. The seasonal potato evapotranspiration ranged from 267 mm to 372 mm. The drip irrigation treatment had significant effecting tuber yield of potato recorder 29,530, 27,630 and 24,880 kg/ha for 125%, 100% and 75% from pan A evapotranspiration, respectively. Humus fertilizers addition has the lowest value of ETa 309 mm and maximum value of yield 2,930 kg/ha. Water use efficiency (WUE) and irrigation water use efficiency (IWUE) values increased with increasing humus fertilizers, recording 9.92, 14.52, 8.59, 12.42 and 7.51, 10.70 kg/m3 for potassium humate K3 (2.4 kg/ha), K2 (1.2 kg/ha) and KI (0.0 kg/ha), respectively. Plants irrigated with 125% from class pans A evaporation, produced a significant increase in N, P and K content in tubers recorder 0.96%, 0.58% and 1.52%, respectively. Potassium humus-fertilizer significant differences among K1, K2 and K3 on high of plants reached 41.52, 50.08 and 56.39 cm, respectively, number of stems/plant 2.69, 3.22 and 3.78, respectively, leaves area index recorder 2.80, 3.35 and 3.73.展开更多
