BACKGROUND:Donor site, recipient site and operator are three important factors for flap transplantation in the repair of hand soft tissue defects. Depth studies are needed on how to choose flaps according to the principle of“good reconstruction of the recipient site, little damage to the donor site, reliable survival, simple and easy operation”. OBJECTIVE:To compare the repairing effects of pedicled neurovascular fasciocutaneous flap, abdominal skin flap and free flap, thereby providing a reference for clinical choice. METHODS:Twenty-eight patients who underwent transplantation of pedicled neurovascular fasciocutaneous flap, abdominal skin flap and free flap in the repair of hand defects, respectively, were al fol ow-up to compare and analyze the disability of the arm, shoulder and hand (DASH), injured site, touch and pressure sensation (Semme-Weinstein monofilament method), dynamic and static two-point discrimination (m2PD, s2PD), temperature sensation, swel ing degree, and degree of scar contracture at donor sites. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:No significant difference in the degree of scar contracture, temperature sensation, touch sensation, and two-point discrimination was found among the three kinds of flaps, but DASH score, swel ing degree and tough and pressure sensation in the abdominal skin flap group were significantly different from those in the other two groups. These findings indicate that these three kinds of flaps have their own characteristics, and can be selected clinical y based on a variety of objective requirements.

Abstract A rapid gas chromatographic ( GC ) method was established for the determination of short-chain fatty acids ( SCFAs ) in human feces. Feces samples were directly extracted by 1% HCl-75% ethanol solution, and then centrifuged at high speed for GC analysis. The chromatographic separation was performed on a DB-FFAP capillary column ( 30 m í 0 . 25 mm í 0 . 25 μm ) with a temperature program ( initial temperature at 50℃ held for 1 min, ramped to 190℃ at 10℃/min ) . The injection port temperature was 250℃ with split ratio at 50:1 . The carrier gas was high purity nitrogen with a constant linear velocity at 1. 0 mL/min. A flame ionization detector was employed to quantify SCFAs. The proposed method had been certified by systematic method validation, and used to determine feces samples. Subsequently, the health volunteer and colorectal cancer patient groups could be distinguished successfully by multivariate statistical analysis. Compared with health volunteers, the acetic acid and butyric acid of feces from colorectal cancer patients were reduced obviously, indicating that SCFAs particularly butyric acid could be considered as candidate markers for colorectal cancer diagnosis. In summary, this study provides a rapid method for the determination of SCFAs in feces form health volunteers and colorectal cancer patients. The method had a prospect for screening and diagnosing colorectal cancer rapidly.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of arsenic trioxide (As2O3) combined with cisplatin on expression of RASSF1A in nude mice with human nasopharyngeal carcinoma xenograft. METHOD: The models of human poorly differentiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma in nude mice were established and randomly divided into four groups, control group (NaCl group), As2O3 group, DDP group and As2O3 + DDP group. The expression of RASSF1A mRNA and protein were detected by Real-time RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry respectively. The methylation rate of RASSF1A promoter CpG islands was analyzed by HRM. RESULTS: Experimental groups could obviously inhibit the growth of tumor and up-regulate the expression of RASSF1A. The methylation rate of RASSF1A in transplanted tumors in experimental groups was lower than the control group. Especially As2O3 combined with DDP were superior to the single drug use. CONCLUSION As2O3 inhibits the growth of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell strain CNE2 xenograft in nude mice and increases mRNA expression of RASSF1A. As2O3 inhibits the malignant phenotypes of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells and reverses hypermethylation of RASSF1A.
