Objective To explore the feasibility of nasolabial fold wrapped perforator flap in repairing pinna defects to produce the relative perfect appearance.Methods We treated 10 cases of pinna nasi defects by the nasolabial fold wrapped perforator flap.We examined the blood vessel distribution and exit of the blood vessel before surgery,and designed the nasolabial fold wrapped perforator flap according to the pinna defects.The flap with reasonable thickness was able to repair the both sides of defect after being cut properly.Meanwhile,the flap could be folded to form a local flap covered or lined with skin,and rotately transfered to repair nasal alar defect.Results All the flaps survived with incisions of donor sites healed primarily.Following up for 4 to 24 months showed that the color,texture and thickness of the flaps were similar to those of recipient sites.The scar in donor site was concealed and not obvious.Those cases who kept neurocutaneous branch had good sense.Satisfactory appearance was received without secondary repair.Conclusions The nasolabial fold wrapped perforator flap has abundant blood circulation and easily survives.It can also afford ample tissues to repair major area of pinna nasi defects,The blood vessel peduncle is too long to be survived easily.And the donor has not clear scar.Second reconstruction can be avoided in this procedure.The nasolabial fold wrapped perforator flap is one of the best choices to repair pinna defects.

Bias in undoubled blind design in the clinical trial of Chinese herb affects the evaluation of efficacy and safety. With two examples, the paper recommended a "segregation" technique to minimize the bias in investigators during undoubled blind trial. The results showed that this method combined other strict means can achieve the conclusions the same as a double blind trial.

Objective To investigate the dynamic changes of nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB) during brain injury of irradiated rats.Methods According to the random number table method,82 healthy Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into two groups:50 rats in the irradiation group and the other 32 rats in the control group given sham-irradiation.The whole brains of rats in the irradiation group were irradiated with a single dose of 20 Gy electron beam to establish an animal model of radiation-induced brain injury.All brain tissues were respectively taken out 1,3,7,14 and 28 d after irradiation.The quantificational real-time-polymerase chain reaction (QRT-PCR) was used to detect the expressions of the NF-κB mRNA while the expression of NF-κB protein was analyzed by ELISA and Western blot.The positioning expression of NF-κB protein in the hippocampus was measured with immunohistochemical staining.Results In the irradiation group,the expression of NF-κB mRNA significantly increased at 3 and 7 d following irradiation (t =37.79,35.30,P ＜ 0.05) and it approached a peak value on the third day following irradiation.The expression of NF-κB protein in whole brain tissues after irradiation was up-regulated and reached a peak on the first day post-irradiation and it was significantly higher than controls at 1,3,7,14 d after irradiation (t =30.94,14.87,27.17,13.27,P ＜ 0.05) then declined and dropped to the normal level by 28 d.The results of immunohistochemical staining showed that the number of NF-κB positive cells in the hippocampus increased at 1,3 and 7 d following irradiation (t =-8.49,-4.47,-3.46,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions After irradiation,the expressions of NF-κB mRNA and corresponding protein first increase and then later decrease,which promotes the development of brain injury.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of rhubarb combined with Probiotics for treatment of patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) accompanied by acute lung injury (ALI). Methods A prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted. Sixty patients with SAP and ALI were randomly divided into a rhubarb group and a combination of rhubarb and Probiotics group (combined group), 30 cases in each group. Both groups were treated with conventional therapy. On that therapeutic base, the patients in rhubarb group were treated with rhubarb 3 g·kg-1·d-1 (Raw rhubarb in boiling water 200 mL was cooked for 30 minutes, then the decoction was divided into two parts to be infused through nasal jejunal tube, retaining for 1 hour);while in the combined group, beside the above rhubarb therapy, the patients were additionally given Probiotics [Clostridium butyric acid:Chang Lekang capsule, once 1 grain (0.42 g), twice a day] through nasal jejunal tube. The therapeutic course was 14 days in the two groups. The plasma endotoxin levels, oxygenation index, and acute physiology and chronic health evaluationⅡ(APACHEⅡ) score were observed before and after treatment for 7 days and 14 days, respectively. After treatment for 30 days, the time of intestine functional recovery and mechanical ventilation, number of damaged organs, number of infectious sites, number of pancreatic pseudocysts, length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay and 30-day fatality rate were observed in the two groups. Results With the prolongation of treatment, the plasma level of endotoxin and APACHEⅡscore in the two groups were gradually reduced, and the oxygenation index was gradually increased after treatment for 7 days and 14 days in the two groups compared with those before treatment, and there were statistically significant differences in above indexes on the 14th day after treatment between combined group and rhubarb group [endotoxin (μg/L): 19.16±1.90 vs. 21.20±1.05, oxygenation index (mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): 369.50±5.45 vs. 341.50±7.36, APACHE Ⅱscore:11.84±0.60 vs. 13.00±0.86, P<0.05 or P<0.01]. The length of intestine functional recovery in the combined group was longer than that in the rhubarb group (days: 5.63±1.75 vs. 5.02±1.54), the number of damaged organs (2.08±0.74 vs. 2.70±1.11), the number of infectious sites (1.93±0.64 vs. 2.23±0.83), the number of pancreatic pseudocysts (1.22±0.34 vs. 1.63±0.11) and the mortality rate [10.0%(3/30) vs. 13.3%(4/30)] in the combined group were lower than those of the rhubarb group, but there were no statistically significant differences between two groups (all P > 0.05). The times of mechanical ventilation (days: 13.40±1.76 vs. 15.60±1.28) and the length of ICU stay (days:16.13±1.25 vs. 17.63±1.30) were significantly shorter in combined group than those in rhubarb group (both P<0.05). Conclusion Rhubarb combined with Probiotics for treatment of patients with SAP and ALI can promote their recovery of lung function and shorten their length of ICU stay.

BACKGROUND:With the development of microsurgical techniques, free flap transplantation has been widely used, which can solve the problem of insufficient local tissues.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical effects of latissimus dorsi free flap transfer on the repair of al kinds of body surface defects, as wel as the role in complete tissue and functional reconstruction.
METHODS:From 2010 to 2013, 18 cases of various types of body surface defects were selected and using the microsurgical techniques, these complex wounds were repaired with free latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flaps. According to defect reason, primary wounds were treated for arteriovenous separation in the recipient zone. Most of the flaps were latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flaps at the affected side which were cut according to the wound size. If the cut muscle flap had a larger size and secondary wounds were difficult to be directly sutured, free skin grafts could be used to cover the residual secondary wounds.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After transplantation, al the flaps survived with normal blood supply and wel-recovered function. Patients were more satisfied with the flap appearance. Latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flaps characterized as large donor area and secluded location have a great advantage in the repair of complex wounds using microsurgical techniques that can improve the survival rate of latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flaps.

BACKGROUND:The main way for long-segmental ureteral reconstruction may cause a lot of traumas and complications. Therefore, to seek a new repair method is urgent. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the feasibility of a tissue-engineered tubular graft for ureteral reconstruction. METHODS:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels and smooth muscle cels of rabbits were seeded into the two surfaces of bladder acelular matrix and cultivated for 7 days. Then the graft was used to prepare a 4-cm long tissue-engineered tubular graft, which was regarded as experimental group. Smooth muscle cels seeded onto the bladder acelular matrix was used to construct the tissue-engineered tubular graft as control group. Twenty-five New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into experimental group (n=20) and control group (n=5), and two kinds of tubular grafts covered with omentum were implanted into the two groups, respectively, for repair of ureteral defects. Hematoxylin-eosin staining and immunohistochemical detection were performed at 2, 4, 8 weeks after implantation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:In the experimental group, hematoxylin-eosin staining showed epithelial coverage and muscle fibers on the lumen of tissue-engineered tubular grafts at 8 weeks after implantation; immunohistochemistry showed that anti-AE1/AE3 antibody and anti-uroplakinⅢa antibody were positive, confirming that there were mature epithelial cels on the lumen of tissue-engineered tubular grafts. In the control group, five rabbits were dead within 2 weeks after removal of ureteral scaffold, and autopsy showed scar formation inside the graft and severe hydronephrosis. These results demonstrate that it is feasible to construct the tissue-engineered tubular graft using bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels and smooth muscle cels into the bladder acelular matrix for ureteral reconstruction. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels can potentialy promote urothelial regeneration.
