Objective To distinguish the increase of white blood cells after glucocorticoid is the adverse reaction of glucocor‐ticoid or infection aggravated .If we can analyse it properly ,the abuse of antimicrobials and waste of medical could be avoid re‐source .Methods 74 patients which were in our hospital from 2011 .1 to 2012 .12 were recruited into this study .They were divided into three groups ,including non‐infection with glucocorticoid(n=15) ,infection without glucocorticoid(n=29) and infection with glucocorticoid(n=30) according to disease and therapies .After being treated 0 day ,3 days ,7 days ,venous blood of patients were collected to detect white blood count ,CRP and morphology of leukocyte .Results The group of non‐infection with glucocorticoid applied glucocorticoid after 3 days and 7days ,WBC was increased significantly(P<0 .01 ,respectively) .And compare with the group of infection without glucocorticoid ,more band neutrophils could be seen in peripheral blood smear of the other two(P< 0 .05) . While there was no difference on level of CRP between the groups of infection without glucocorticoid and infection with glucocorti‐coid(P>0 .05) .Conclusion Glucocorticoid rise the count of WBC in peripheral blood especially the neutrophil .We can evaluate in‐fectious status by the level of CRP and the count of band neutrophils in peripheral blood smear .

Objective To evaluate the role of several traditional laboratory examinations in identifying the cause of WBC count increase,which might be the adverse reaction of glucocorticoid or infection.Methods 74 patients treated in the hospital from Jan. 2011 to Dec.2012 were recruited in the study.Glucocorticoid without Infection(n =15 ),Infection without Glucocorticoid(n =29) and Infection with Glucocorticoid(n=30)Group were devided according to the type of disease and therapies.After being treated for 0,3,7 d,respectively venous blood samples of patients were collected to determine the concentration of CRP,WBC count,leukocyte classification and NAP score.CRP was used as the Judgment index for the degree of infection,the changes of other indexes were compared.Results Compared with the Infection without Glucocorticoid Group,the CRP concentration of the Infection with Glu-cocorcoid Group was becoming lower(P >0.05).The Non-infection with Glucocorticoid Group applied glucocorticoid for 3 days and 7 days respectively,the count of neutrophilic granulocyte and NAP score increased significantly compared with that before glucocor-ticoid application(P <0.01)while the count of lymphocyte reduced(P <0.05)and no significant change in the count of eosnophils (P >0.05).Conclusion The increase of WBC after glucocorticoid can not be identified whether it is the adverse reaction of glu-cocorticoid or aggravated infection by using classification of leukocyte,the increasing amount of WBC and NAP score.

The schematic structure model, materials selection and microstructure modulation are introduced for the design of artificial dermis equivalent. The artificial skin should also possess a bilayer structure that imitates then natural skin, i.e. the top layer functions as a temporary epidermis which is composed of polymer elastomer that is permeable for moisture but not for water, the bottom layer is the skin regeneration template employing collagen based sponge. In addition to collagen, polysaccharides like glycosaminoglycan is also used in the artificial dermis equivalent in order to simulate the natural extracellular matrix of skin and to modulate the degradation rate. The pore size and morphology of collagen porous membranes can be controlled by variation of the pH value, concentration and freezing temperature. Hence, the microstructure of the dermis equivalent can be optimized. The collagen based artificial dermis equivalent thus fabricated may be an option to skin graft in the clinical treatment of full skin injuries and ulcers.

Objective:To compare the clinical outcomes of the Laennec’s approach versus the two-step separation stylized approach in laparoscopic left lateral sectionectomy (LLLS).Methods:A total of 60 patients who underwent LLLS at the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery, the Affiliated Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Southwest Medical University from March 2019 to April 2022 were prospectively entered into this study. There were 40 males and 20 females, aged (49.1±9.3) years, with 31 patients suffering from liver cancer, 14 patients hepatic hemangioma and 15 patients hepatolithiasis. A randomized number table was used to assign the patients into two groups: the Laennec’s approach group ( n=30) and the two-step separation stylized approach group ( n=30). The age, gender, liver function, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, abdominal drainage amount, drainage tube retention time, postoperative hospital stay, total hospital costs and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. Results:There were no significant differences between the two groups in gender, age and Child-Pugh grading of liver function (all P>0.05). Comparison of intraoperative bleeding, postoperative hospital stay, postoperative complications, postoperative recurrence between the two groups showed there were no significant differences between the two groups (all P>0.05). The operative time [(85.6±24.5) min vs (99.1±30.7) min, P<0.05] was significantly less in the stylized group than the Laennec’s group, while the Laennec’s group were superior to the stylized group in the amount of draining [(144.1±38.3) ml vs (290.9±59.5) ml], drainage tube retention time [(2.7±1.5) d vs (4.3±1.9) d] and total hospital costs [(35 100.7±13 200.6) yuan vs (44 700.1±11 800.8) yuan](all P<0.05). Conclusions:Both the Laennec’s and stylized approaches for LLLS were safe and feasible. The stylized approach for LLLS could be performed more quickly, while the Laennec’s approach could more accurately dissect and handle intrahepatic and extrahepatic ducts, thus resulting in decreased postoperative exudation and treatment costs.
