Objective To observe and compare the efficacy and safety of implantation of tissue expanders adjacent to or under keloid tissues for large keloids on anterior chest. Methods Between Mar 2006 and June 2009, a total of 17 patients with large keloid lesions on anterior chest received treatment with 21 tissue expanders,among which 12 were placed under the normal skin adjacent to keloids, and 9 were inserted under the keloid lesions. The scar size varied from 4.5 cm × 3.0 cm to 15.7 cm × 5.5 cm. The capacity was 70 to 400 ml for expanders adjacent to the keloid tissue, 80 to 500 mi for those beneath the keloid tissues. After tissue expansion for 6 to 8 weeks, the expander was removed and keloid lesions were resected followed by the repair of defect with expanded flaps. Further more, the patients received intraoperative local intradermal injection of betamethasone and postoperative superficial electron beam irradiation with divided doses of 7 Gy in 3 consecutive days within 1 week after the surgery. Follow-up varied from 12 to 50 months. Results Twenty expanders, except 1expander pocket which was removed ahead of time due to infection, were implanted successfully during the whole course of treatment. The main complication was expander exposure in 4 patients, including 1 expander adjacent to the keloids and 3 under keloid lesions, which showed no significant influence on secondary operation. Fifteen patients reported relief of symptoms and achieved satisfactory outcomes, while 2 patients, including 1 treated with expanders adjacent to the keloids and 1 with expanders under the keloid tissue, showed great suture tension and experienced delayed stitch removal followed by the recurrence of keloids after the operation.Conclusions The implantation of tissue expanders under the adjacent normal skin or keloid lesions is an ideal treatment option for large keloids on anterior chest. Regional suture tension is a direct contributor to the recurrence of keloid formation after surgical excision.

BACKGROUND; As the bridge vessel, radial artery is easy to occur spasm and injury of endometrium, and the abnormal proliferation of endometrium, re-vasospasm, etc. appear at early period postoperatively, which can affect the operative outcomes.OBJECTIVE: To compare the effects of nitroglycenn (NTG), verapamil (VP), paraverine (PA), and the mixture of NTG and VP on relaxing spasm of radial artery in human being.DESIGN: A randomized controlled trial.SETTING: Department of Cardiosurgery, General Hospital of Shenyang Military Area Command of Chinese PLA.PARTICIPANTS: Thirty patients who underwent coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) with autologous radial artery, were selected from the Department of Cardiosurgery, General Hospital of Shenyang Military Area Command of Chinese PLA from September to November in 2006, including 18 males and 12 females, 48-74 years of age. Informed consents were obtained from all the patients or their relatives preoperatively.METHODS:① The samples of human radial artery in CABG were collected, and totally 95 vascular rings were used in this study. The rings were divided into five groups: NTG group, VP group, PA group, VP+NTG group and control group.There two parts of the experiment, vasospasm relaxation test and vasospasm prevention test. The vascular rings in the control group were only immersed in the Krebs- Ringer solution without any drug. ② Drugs: NTG was purchased from Solo Pak Laboratories (Franklin Park, IL), PA from Eli Lilly & Co., (Indianapolis, IN), VP and others from Sigma (St.Louis, MO). ③ Thirty vascular rings were used in the vasospasm relaxation test, and the method of bath chamber was applied. Deoxyepinephrine (terminal concentration of 1 ×10-3 mol/L) was added to stimulate the contraction and spasm of the vascular rings, then four vasodilatators were added, the concentrations of VP and NTG were 30 μmol/L, and that of PA was 0.1%. Relaxation rate=(resting tension after stimulation-initial resting tension)/initial resting tension× 100%. ④ The other 60 vascular rings were used in the vasospasm prevention test. Firstly, the rings were immersed in the four solutions of vasodilatators of corresponding concentrations and Krebs- Ringer solution respectively for 30 minutes. After pretreatment, the vascular rings were randomly divided intc normothermia group (n =30) and cryopreservation group (n =30). In the cryopreservation group, the vascular rings were put into the Krebs-Ringer buffer solution at 4 ℃, and kept in refrigerator at 4 ℃ for 24 hours. The spasms of radial artery were observed.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Changes of resting tension (degree of contraction and relaxation rate of dilatation) of vascular rings before and after administration.RESULTS: ① Effect on the dilatation of spastic radial artery: The radial artery was completely within 11 minutes in all the VP+NTG group, VP group, NTG group and PA group. But in the first 3 minutes, the dilating effects of VP+NTG and NTG were obviously better than the other two groups. The dilatation curves showed that the dilating ability in order was VP+NTG > NTG > VP > PA. ② Effect of pretreatment of radial artery on antispasm: In the normothermia group, the contractility of the vascular ring produced by 1 ×10-3 mol/L deoxyepinephrine was close between the VP+NTG group and VP group [(0.47±0.06), (0.49±0.08) g, P > 0.05], which were obviously different from those in the NTG group and PA group [(0.81±0.22), (0.87±0.26) g, P < 0.05]. After cryopreservation for 24 hours, the contractility in the VP+NTG group was not obviously different from that in the VP group [(0.86±0.11), (0.90±0.13) g, P > 0.05], and obviously lower than those in the NTG group, PA group and control group [(4.82±0.87), (5.00±0.53), (5.10±0.67) g, P < 0.01], whereas those in the NTG group and PA group were close to that in the control group (P > 0.05).CONCLUSION: The drugs can prevent and relax the spasm of radial artery to different extents, whereas considering from preventing spasm and the time-effect of treatment, the mixture of VP and NTG seems to be more proper as the preparation solution for the treatment of radial artery in CABG.

Objective To evaluate the prognostic value of blood lactate (Lac) level in sepsis patients with or without diabetes.Methods 106 patients admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) of Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University from April 2015 to November 2016 were enrolled. The patients with age > 18 years and the length of hospital stay > 24 hours were included. Records including blood Lac, serum creatinine (SCr), white blood cell count (WBC), platelet count (PLT), sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) on the first day of admission; minimum oxygen index (PaO2/FiO2) in 3 days after admission; mechanical ventilation, whether there was a history of diabetes, usage of biguanides, etiology control treatment, usage of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) were collected. According to the level of blood Lac patients were divided into high Lac group (Lac > 2 mmol/L) and low Lac group (Lac ≤ 2 mmol/L);based on their diabetic history, sepsis patients were divided into the diabetes group and non-diabetes group. The survival curve of each group was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier regression analysis, and the factors influencing the prognosis were analyzed by multivariate Cox regression analysis.Results There were 76 males and 30 females sepsis patients, with an average age of (68.1±14.7) years old. In the 51 patients of low Lac group, there were 7 patients who suffered from diabetes. While in the 55 patients of high Lac group, there were 12 patients who suffered from diabetes. Compared with low Lac group, high Lac group had a higher age, higher SOFA score, and a lower proportion of patients who had the treatment of etiology control (allP < 0.05). There was no significant difference of blood Lac in sepsis patients with diabetes and those without diabetes (mmol/L: 3.03±2.73 vs. 2.81±2.40,P > 0.05). Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis showed that the 90-day survival rate in the high Lac group was significantly lower than that in the low Lac group (56.36% vs. 90.20%,χ2 = 0.697,P = 0.008). The high Lac group without diabetes had lower survival rate, and the 90-day survival rate was significantly lower than that of the low Lac group without diabetes (58.14% vs. 90.90%,χ2 = 7.152,P = 0.007); there was no significant difference in 90-day survival rate between the high Lac group and the low Lac group with diabetes (50.00% vs. 85.71%,χ2 = 0.012,P = 0.914). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that blood Lac was an independent risk factor for the prognosis of sepsis patients [odds ratio (OR) = 3.863, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 1.237-12.060,P = 0.020]. After stratification according to their diabetic history, the blood Lac was an independent risk factor for the prognosis of sepsis patients without diabetes (OR = 4.816, 95%CI = 1.407-15.824, P = 0.010), but the blood Lac had no effect on the prognosis of sepsis patients with diabetes (OR = 0.000, 95%CI =0.000-1.103,P = 0.270).Conclusions The predictive value of blood Lac on sepsis patients with or without diabetes was different. The blood Lac was related with the prognosis of sepsis patients without diabetes, while further study should be conducted for the prognostic value of blood Lac in sepsis patients with diabetes, and it's possible to increase the cut-off-point of Lac level in these patients.
