Objective To investigate the clinical significance of monitoring blood glucose in term infants with asphyxia. Methods The blood glucouse within 24 hours of admission and prognosis were retrospectively analyzed in full-term neonates with asphyxia admitted from January, 2011 to December, 2012. Results Among 256 term infants with asphyxia, 95 cases (37.11%) had abnormal blood glucose, 63 cases (24.61%) were hypoglycemia and 32 (12.50%) were hyperglycemia. The incidence of mild asphyxia and severe asphyxia, the number of damaged organ were significantly different among infants with hypoglycemia, normal blood glucose, and hyperglycemia (all P<0.001). Among 256 term infants, 206 cases were mild asphyxia, 50 cases were serve asphyxia. The incidence of abnormal blood glucose and hyperglycemia were significantly higher in infants with serve asphyxia than those in infants with mild asphyxia (P<0.01). Among 256 term infants, 227 cases (88.67%) had organ damaged. 96 cases involved one organ, 72 cases involved two organs, and 59 cases involved three or more organs. The incidence of abnormal blood glucose, hypoglycemia, hyperglucemia were significantly different among infants invoved one, two or threr and more organs. The incidence of hyperglycemia was the highest in infants with three or more organ damaged, and the incidence of hypoglycemia was the highest in infants with two organ damaged. Conclusions The term infants with severe asphyxia and more organ damaged were prone to with abnormal blood glucose.

Objective To investigate the relationship of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) on FTO gene rs9939609 with metabolism index and obesity in children. Methods One hundred and fifty-three children (age 7-11 year) were recruited in this study, 102 of them were obese and 51 of them were overweight. One hundred and sixty children with normal body weight were recruited as control. Height, weight and biochemical indicator of liver function were measured. PCR and direct sequence were applied to detect the polymorphism of rs9939609, and the frequency of the allele was calculated. Results TT or TA/AA genotype frequency on FTOgene rs9939609 was significantly different among overweight group, obesity group and normal con-trol group (χ2=23.01, P<0.001);TA/AA genotype frequency in overweight and obesity group was significant higher than that in the control group(P<0.014). The frequencies of T and A allele in overweight group, obesity group and control group was 96.25%and 3.75%, 85.29%and 14.71%, 85.78%and 14.22%respectively. There was significant difference of allelic frequency among overweight group, obesity group and control group (χ2=21.72, P<0.001). The frequency of A allele in overweight and obe-sity group was higher than that in control group (P'<0.014). Subjects with TA/AA allele had significantly higher BMI compared with subjects with TT allele. Conclusions rs9939609 of FTO gene is associated with obesity in children, and allele A on this spot may raise BMI and leads to overweight and obesity.

Objective:To investigate the effects of anterolateral wide pedicled double dynamic flap of the calf in repair of soft tissue defects of mid-and forefoot.Methods:From September 2015 to Septemler 2020, 15 cases with severe soft tissue defects of mid-and forefoot were repaired with the anterolateral wide pedicled double dynamic flap of the calf. There were 11 males and 4 females with an average age of 37(range, 22-53)years old. Of the 15 cases, the defects were caused by traffic accident in 6 cases and objects smash in 9 cases. Three cases were simple soft tissue defect, and 12 cases combined with fracture or dislocation and bone defect. The size of soft tissue defects ranged from 4 cm×5 cm to 7 cm×12 cm. All wounds of donor sites were repaired by skin grafting. All patients entered follow-ups at the outpatient clinic or through WeChat. The appearance of flaps and limb recovery were recorded after surgery.Results:All cases followed-up for 6-24 (mean, 16) months. Two days after surgery, 1 case had flap swelling and cyanosis, which was improved after pedicle suture removal and surface bloodletting. The pedicle of the flap was slightly bloated in 4 cases, and the texture and appearance were good in 11 cases. The ankle function of all cases recovered satisfactorily. The ranges of ankle motion were 15°-20° for dorsiflexion and 30°-40° for plantar flexion. The donor site healed well and all the skin grafts survived.Conclusion:The anterolateral wide pedicled double dynamic flap of the calf is one of the ideal flaps for repairing the soft tissue defects of the mid-and forefoot with reliable blood supply, sufficient venous return, simple operation and no require a vascular anastomosis.
