Objective To approach the design and clinical application of large anterolateral thigh flap and its effect in wound repair.Methods The flaps were designed according to the anatomical features of perforating branches in the anterolateral thigh flaps.When a flap was chipped,a thick branch or a terminal branch of original vessel was reserved,another suitable perforating branch was selected in the proximal or distal end of the flap,and then the two vessels were anastomosed to enlarge the range of blood supply.If the vessel pedicle of a flap was a musculocutaneous perforating branch,the perforating branch of anastomosis was cut at out-point of muscle.If the vessel pedicle of a flap was a intermusclar branch or a direct skin artery,the perforating branch of anastomosis was cut widely.From May 2006 to May 2012,the technique was applied in 28 patients with large skin defect of limbs.The diameters of perforating branches obtained at out-point of muscles were measured during surgery.The survival of flaps was observed after surgery and complications in donor sites were checked during follow-ups.Results There were 18 flaps whose vessel pedicle were musculocutaneous perforating branches.The branches were cut at outpoint of muscles.The diameters of these vessels were measured during surgery.They ranged from 1.3 mm to 1.8 mm with an average of 1.45 mm.All of the vessels could be anastomosed.All 28 flaps survived.All flaps survived.The areas of the flaps ranged from 22 cm × 15 cm to 42 cm × 14 cm.Artery crisis happened in 2 flaps whose vessel pedicle were musculocutaneous perforating branches.The second look operation found that the areas of artery anastomosis of perforating branches and vessel pedicles were compressed by hematoma and thrombus formed.The 2 flaps survived after the hematoma was cleared away and the vessels were reanastomosed.There were no infections.Both the donor and recipient site healed by first intention with no necrosis of flap margin.All 28 patients were followed up by 4-13 months with an average of 8 months.There were no apparent collapse deformities,muscle necrosis,declines of muscle strength and muscle hernia in the donor sites.The appearance of flaps was flat,the color was close to normal and the quality was fine.Conclusion It is a safe and effective method to repair wound surface by large anaterolateral thigh flap obtained by the modus operandi of perforating branch anastomosis.

BACKGROUND: Spinocerebel ar ataxia is a common neurodegenerative disease characterized by slowly progressive movement incoordination of the limbs. It responds badly to common medication. OBJECTIVE: To observe the clinical effect of autologous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and al ogeneic umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells tranfusion in the treatment of spinocerebel ar ataxia. METHODS: A total of 27 spinocerebel ar ataxia patients treated with mesenchymal stem cells treatment were included for comprehensive statistical analysis. Among these patients, six patients received autologous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells lumbar puncture treatment and 21 patients received al ogeneic umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells lumbar puncture treatment combined with intravenous infusion. The neurologic function of the patients in the two groups was evaluated with International Cooperative Ataxia Rating Scale before and after treatment. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: There was no obvious adverse effect in the 27 spinocerebel ar ataxia patients during, before or after mesenchymal stem cells treatment. The effect of autologous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in six patents was not significant; for the other 21 patients treated with al ogeneic umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells transfusion, the subjective symptoms of the patients were improved, and the International Cooperative Ataxia Rating Scale scores were decreased significantly at 3 months after treatment when compared with those before treatment (P < 0.05). The results suggest that umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells treatment is safe and able to ameliorate the clinical symptoms and improve life quality of spinocerebel ar ataxia patients to some extent.

Background and Objectives:
Apoptosis is an outstanding determinant of glucocorticoid (GC)-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) have been demonstrated to be associated with apoptosis in diseases models. However, the role of hUC-MSCs in GC-induced ONFH via regulating apoptosis still needs further study.
Methods:
and Results: In the present study, a GC-induced ONFH model was built in vivo through a consecutive injection with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and methylprednisolone. The necrosis and apoptosis of the femoral head was evaluated by histological and Terminal-deoxynucleoitidyl Transferase Mediated Nick End Labeling (TUNEL) assay. The level of collagen and TRAP positive cells were determined by Masson and TRAP staining, respectively. M1 macrophage polarization was assessed using immunofluorescence assay. The level of proinflammatory cytokines including tumor necrosis factor (TNF)‐α, Interleukin (IL)‐1β and IL-6 of femoral head was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits. The protein expression of AKT, mTOR, p-AKT and p-mTOR was detected using western blot assay. The results showed that hUC-MSCs treatment prominently promoted the GC-induced the decrease of the collagen level and the increase of TRAP positive cells. Besides, hUC-MSCs treatment decreased necrosis and apoptosis, macrophage polarization, the level of TNF‐α, IL‐1β and IL-6, the protein expression of p-AKT and p-mTOR, and the radio of p-AKT to AKT and p-mTOR to mTOR of femoral head in vivo.
Conclusions
Therefore, the present study revealed that hUC-MSCs improved the necrosis and osteocyte apoptosis in GC-induced ONFH model through reducing the macrophage polarization, which was associated with the inhibition of AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.

Objective:To compair the clinical effect of endoscopic spine surgery with and without assistance of an electromagnetic navigation surgical robot(ENSR) system in the treatment of lumbar disc herniations(LDH).Methods:From March 2021 to December 2021, 73 patients with LDH underwent endoscopic minimally invasive treatment in the Department of Spine Surgery, Limin Hospital of Weihai High District. Thirty-eight patients were treated with endoscopic spine surgery assisted by domestic ENSR system(ENSR group), and 35 patients were treated with endoscopic spine surgery alone(endoscopic group). The patients received follow up regularly by telephone or Wechat. The intraoperative fluoroscopy times, puncture times, upper facet arthroplasty times, operation time, preoperative and postoperative Visual Analogue Scale(VAS), Japanese Orthopaedic Association Scores(JOA), and the MOS item short from health survey(SF-36)were compared between the 2 groups. The early postoperative efficacy was evaluated by modified MacNab criteria at 1 week after surgery. SPSS 26.0 was used to analyse the data. P<0.05 was considered that the difference was statistically significant. Results:The age, gender, body mass index(BMI) and other general data of the 2 groups were basically the same, and there was no statistically significant difference( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the excellent and good rate of postoperative treatment between ENSR group(97.37%) and endoscopic group(94.29%)( Z=0.90, P>0.05). In terms of operation time, intraoperative fluoroscopy times, puncture times, and plasty times, ENSR group[(67.00±17.00) min, (4±2) times, 1 time, 1 time, respectively] was compared with the endoscopic group[(82.00±16.00] min, (17±6) times, (9±5) times, (5±2) times], and the difference was statistically significant( t=3.87,12.62, 9.87, respectively, P<0.05). There were significant differences in VAS, JOA and SF-36 scores between the 2 groups between before and after surgery( F=106.42, 112.14, 26.88, respectively, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in VAS, JOA and SF-36 scores before and after surgery between the 2 groups( F=0.95, 3.54, 0.97, respectively, P>0.05). Conclusion:The endoscopic spine surgery assisted by the ENSR can achieve satisfactory clinical results and is a safe and effective surgical assistance system. For the endoscopic surgery, assisted by the ENSR has obvious advantages in reducing the times of fluoroscopy, puncture, and facet arthroplasty, and shortening the operation time.

Objective:To compare the early therapeutic effects of internal fixation with percutaneous minimally invasive hollow nail assisted by electromagnetic navigation robot and guided by C-arm in the treatment of Tile type C pelvic fracture.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 32 patients with Tile type C pelvic fracture admitted to Weihai Central Hospital from January 2020 to March 2022, including 18 males and 14 females; aged 36-60 years [(44.1±3.9)years]. Among them, 17 patients were treated with internal fixation with percutaneous minimally invasive hollow nail assisted by electromagnetic navigation robot (electromagnetic navigation group), and 15 with internal fixation with percutaneous minimally invasive hollow nail guided by C-arm (C-arm guidance group). Operative time, intraoperative blood loss, sacroiliac screw placement time, pubic branch screw placement time, ambulation time and fracture healing time were compared between the two groups. Visual analog scale (VAS), Majeed function score and complication rate at 1 day, 6 months, 12 months after surgery and at the last follow-up were compared between the two groups.Results:All the patients were followed up for 12-24 months [(15.4±0.5)months]. The operative time and intraoperative blood loss in the electromagnetic navigation group were (42.0±2.5)minutes and (10.9±2.6)ml, shorter or less than (50.0±3.5)minutes and (14.9±3.1)ml in the C-arm guidance group (all P<0.01). The placement time of sacroiliac screw and pubic branch screw in the electromagnetic navigation group was (12.4±0.2)minutes and (10.1±0.3)minutes, shorter than (15.3±0.3)minutes and (13.2±0.3)minutes in the C-arm guidance group (all P<0.01). The ambulation time was (3.2±0.4)weeks in the electromagnetic navigation group, earlier than (3.5±0.4)weeks in the C-arm guidance group ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in fracture healing time between the two groups ( P>0.05). VAS scores of the electromagnetic navigation group were (4.4±0.3)points and (1.1±0.1)points at 1 day and 6 months after surgery respectively, lower than those of the C-arm guidance group [(4.8±0.4)points and (1.2±0.3)points] ( P<0.05 or 0.01). Majeed function scores of the electromagnetic navigation group were (37.3±1.1)points and (88.5±1.4)points at 1 day and 6 months after surgery respectively, higher than those of the C-arm guidance group [(30.7±4.2)points and (82.6±1.8)points] (all P<0.01). There were no significant differences in VAS and Majeed scores at 12 months after surgery and at the last follow-up between the two groups (all P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with C-arm guidance, electromagnetic navigation robot-assisted internal fixation with percutaneous minimally invasive hollow nail for Tile type C pelvic fracture can reduce operative time and intraoperative blood loss, shorten screw placement time and ambulation time, relieve pain and improve functional recovery at early stage.
