Chronic wound has very complicated pathogenesis and is difficult to treat; the situation has been improving owing to the progress in wound healing research and the clinical application of new techniques. This article focuses on the pathogenesis of chronic wound and introduces progress in various kinds of treatment, such as skin substitute, growth factors, negative pressure treatment, etc.

Andrology and gynecology have a similar or the same theoretical basis in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Andrology has a history of less than 3 decades in China, while TCM gynecology has developed for over a thousand years. The development of andrology could be greatly promoted with the guidance of the theories and prescriptions of gynecology.

ObjectiveTo discuss treatment experiencing in femur periprothetic fracture after hip arthroplasty in pre-, intra- and post-surgery.Methods From March 2005 to May 2011, 27 patients (11 males, 16 females) aged ＞75 years with femur periprothetic fracture after hip replacement were studied. The mean time from primary hip replacement to femur perprosthetic fracture was 63 months(ranging from 7 to 83 months). According to vanconver classification, type A applying steel wire of character for 8 bind technique was 5 cases, type B applying prolonging stem technique locking compress plate (LCP)technique surrounding instrument technique was 19 cases and type C applying bone graft and plate fixation technique was 3 cases. All patients were followed up from 9 to 25 months (average, 16 months). The results of treatment were evaluated by Harris score and X rays. Results Bony heal was obtained in 22 patients and was not obtained in five cases among whom bony heal occurred in 3 cases and 2 patients could only keep prothetic and limb stable after receiving the bone graft once more. Walking was free in 14 cases,9 cases needed assistant walking instrument,and only 4 cases stayed in the bed freely. Harris score for last follow-up was 52 to 93 (mean 76).Conclusions Based on the patient general status, the fracture types and practical and stable principle, the effective methods can get good results in the treatment of femur periprosthetic fracture in aged patient.

The health information social service in medical college and university libraries was analyzed in terms of the importance attached to it, opening to readers, items of service, requirement of materials, types of readers, and charge of frees, and certain measures were proposed for improving the level of health information social service, such as updating the service concept, innovating the service, and standardizing the management.

0.05).) Conclusions Coxsackie virus is the most common pathogen in patients with viral meningitis in Chaoshan district, and the organization of disease prevention and scientific research and clinical medical should attach importance to it.

Objective To investigate the relationship between motor abnormality of sphincter of Oddi(SO) and hepatolithiasis.Methods The hepatolithiasis rabbit models were established in adult rabbits(n=64) which were randomly divded into 2 groups:control group(n=16)and experimental group(n=48),including 2 wk,4 wk and 8 wk group(n=16 per group).During the formation process of hepatolithiasis,bile character and ratio of stone formation were both observed,then the myoelectric waves of SO were recorded.Finally,The SO segment was sliced and observed by transmissional electron microscope.Results The rate of true stone formation in group 8 wk(68.75%,11/16)was higher than that in group 4wk(12.50%,2/16)and in group 2wk(0.00%,0/16).Compared with the control group,there was significant decrease of both SO myoelectric peak amplitude and SO myoelectric frequency in the experimental group.Electron microscopy showed that SO cells in control group and 2wk group had no change,but the 4wk and 8wk groups underwent changes including fibrolysis of myofilament,increase of collagen fibers,fusion and thickening of microfilament,decrease and array disorder of macula densa,swelling of chondrosome and endoplasmic reticulum,widening of perinuclear space and deviation and pyknosis of nucleus,and formation of inclusion body in cytoplasm;and the degeneration degree in 8wk group was obvious than that in group 4wk.Conclusions The functional abnormality of SO may contribute important effects on the formation of hepatolithiasis.Fibrous degeneration of SO maybe the pathogenesis of functional abnormality of SO.

Objective To investigate the effects of local application of NGF combined with Insulin on wound healing with Ⅱ degree deep scald and the expression of HIF-1α and VEGF in diabetic rats. Methods 60 male Wistar rats were used in the study by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ). Deep partial thickness scalding was engendered on the back of the rats after one month. Then these rats were random divided into group B (scalding of the rats with diabetes, n = 15), C (insulin control, n = 15), D ( NGF control, n = 15) and E ( NGF and insulin supplementation, n = 15). And group A ( nomal control,n = 15) was created by normal rats of partial thickness scalding. The wound area, wound healing rate, and grey of HIF-1α and VEGF immunohistochemistry staining were determined on the 3rd, 7th, 15th, and 21st day post scalding days (PSDs). Results Compared to those in groups A, B, C and D, the wound healing rate in group E increased significantly since the 7th PSD [(25.33 ± 2. 32 ) %, P ＜ 0.05]. The wound healing rate in group C and D increased significantly compared with group B [( 16. 68 ± 1.95 ) %, ( 18.29±1. 70)%, P ＜0.05]. Compared to group A, the group D increased significantly since the 15th PSD [(54. 84 ±3.60)%, P ＜0. 05]. The expression of HIF-1α and VEGF in group E began to increase slower than other groups after the 7th day ( P ＜0. 05 ). Conclusion Local application of NGF combined with Insulin could be beneficial to the regeneration of capillary vessel in the burn wounds of the rats with diabetes,as well as to accelerate wound healing by redress anoxia and decrease the expression of HIF-1α and VEGF.
