Comparative Study[Treatment of postoperative recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma with radiofrequency ablation comparing with repeated surgical resection].
To evaluate the efficacy of radiofrequency ablation for the treatment of postoperative recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma and whether radiofrequency ablation can be used as first line treatment for recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma. ⋯ Radiofrequency ablation seems to be as effective as repeated surgical resection owing to comparable overall survival and can be considered as alternative therapy for surgical resection treatment of small recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma.

Meta Analysis[Systematic review of anterior versus posterior surgical treatments of thoracolumbar fractures].
To evaluate the effectiveness of anterior versus posterior surgical treatments of thoracolumbar fractures. ⋯ To compare with posterior fixation system, anterior surgical managements in the thoracolumbar spinal trauma might be the optimal choices because the lower rates of complications and loss of corrected kyphosis angle; better neurologic recovery, also. Besides, due to the lack of Evidence-based guidelines for the treatment of thoracolumbar spinal injuries, the results which indicated above need further study.

Comparative Study[Comparative study of ultrasonography, magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography in common duct stones].
To compare the diagnostic value study the technique of ultrasonography, magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in common duct stones. ⋯ The diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography for common duct stone was little higher, US should be used as a primary checking method. There was higher concordance between MRCP and ERCP for common duct stone. Combination of MRCP and ERCP can improve diagnostic accuracy of common duct stone.

[The use of recombinant activated factor VII for blood loss after cardiovascular surgery].
To describe the early experiences with rFVIIa in the management of bleeding after cardiovascular surgery. ⋯ The use of rFVIIa is associated with reduced blood loss, rapid improvement of coagulation variables, and decreased need for blood products. rFVIIa is safe and efficacious in the management of refractory postcardiotomy bleeding.
