BACKGROUND: Distally based flap pedicled with the distal nutritional vessels in forearm is especially suitable for reconstructing the tissue defects in the distal end of hands, while high rotation point cannot satisfy the requirements of reconstructing the distal injuries or defects in hands, and severer lesion may even be caused in the donor site.OBJECTIVE: To study the anatomic proceeding of artery perforators in distal radial margin of forearms, so as to provide anatomic basis for the design of distally based compound flap pedicled with the nutrient vessel of cephalic vein in distal radial margin of forearms.DESIGN: Single sample experiment.SETTING: Center for Clinical Anatomy of the Department of Orthopedics,Fuzhou General Hospital of Chinese PLA of Nanjing Military Area Command.MATERIALS: The experiment was conducted in the Laboratory of Center for Clinical Anatomy of Department of Orthopedics, Fuzhou General Hospital of Chinese PLA of Nanjing Military Area Command between August and December 2004. The upper extremities of 30 cadavers injected with a mixture of red gelatin into the artery (provided by the Center for Clinical Anatomy of Department of Orthopedics, Fuzhou General Hospital of Chinese PLA of Nanjing Military Area Command) were adopted.METHODS: The vascular external diameter and distance were measured with sliding caliper and ruler with radial styloid process as the marker.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① The perforator artery in distal radial margin of forearms. ② The nutrient vessels of cephalic vein. ③ The relationship of blood supply between the nutrient vessels and vicinal bone and skin as well as the lateral antebrachial cutaneous nerve. ④ The superficial and deep communicating branches of cephalic vein.RESULTS: The perforator artery in distal radial margin of forearms derived from: 6-11 cutaneous branches of radial artery with external diameter of (0.7±0.3) mm; 2-6 cutaneous branches of superficial palma with the external diameter of (0.5±0.3) mm; 1-2 recurrent cutaneous branches of the styloid process of radius with the external diameter of (0.5±0.1) mm; 1-2 cutaneous branches of snuff tobacco with the external diameter of (0.6±0.2) mm. At 8.0-15.0 cm above radius styloid process there were 1-3 intermuscular cutaneous branches of radial artery with an initial external diameter of (1.1±0.2) mm, distributing in the exposureregion and corresponding skin of middle and inferior segments in radius. The above-mentioned perforator arteries all developed into cutaneous branch, fascia branch, periosteum branch, cephalic vein and nutrient vessel branch of distal cutaneous nerve,and constituted the vascular chain, the by-pass of cephalic vein, vascular chain of cutaneous nerve stem as well as superficial, deep fascias and periosteal vascular net.CONCLUSION: The perforator artery in distal radial margin of forearms is the source of nutrient vessels in cephalic vein, while the nutrient vessels share an isogeny with the nutrient vessels derived from vicinal bone, skin and lateral antebrachial cutaneous nerve, which provide an anatomic basis for designing the distally based compound flap pedicled with the nutrient vessels of cephalic vein. The rotation point of compound flap pedicled with the recurrent branch of radius styloid process (or branch of snuff tobacco) can reach the surface of rotation joint, which can be adopted in the transposition and reconstruction of distal tissue defects in hands.

Objective:To establish an HPLC method for the determination of the content of magnolol and honokiol in Cortex mag-noliae Officinalis formula granules and compare the content of the formula granules from different manufacturers. Methods:An HPLC was used to determine the content of magnolol and honokiol in Cortex magnoliae Officinalis formula granules. The analysis was carried out on a Hypersil C18 (250 mm × 4. 6 mm, 5 μm) chromatographic column. Acetonitrile-water was used as the mobile phase with gra-dient elution and the flow rate was 1. 0 ml·min-1 . The detection wavelength was set at 294 nm, the sample size was 20 μl and the column temperature was 25℃. Results:The linear range was 0. 873-26. 190μg·ml-1(r=0. 999 5) for magnolol, the average recov-ery was 99. 24% with RSD of 2. 00%(n=6) and that was 0. 732-21. 980μg·ml-1(r=0. 999 0) for honokiol,and the average recov-ery was 99. 89% with RSD of 1. 33%(n=6). The difference in the content of magnolol and honokiol in Cortex magnoliae Officinalis formula granules from different manufacturers was notable. Conclusion: The method is simple, repeatable and feasible, and can be used for the quality control of magnolol and honokiol in Cortex magnoliae Officinalis formula granules. The content difference in magno-lol and honokiol in Cortex magnoliae Officinalis formula granules from different manufacturers suggests that it is necessary to standardize the planting and selecting of Chinese medicine, and develop scientific and unified production technology and quality standard for the formula granules.

Objective To analysis the effect of salbutamol combined with noninvasive ventilator on TNF-α,IL-6,IL-8 and serum CK-MB activity in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with respiratory failure.Methods 60 patients who were diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with respiratory failure were collected.All patients were randomly divided into experimental group and control group,30 cases in each group. Patients in the control group received noninvasive ventilator treatment, patients in the experimental group were given salbutamol treatment on the basis of control group treatment, after the treatment, the serum levels of TNF-α,IL-6,IL-8 and serum CK-MB activity were detected in all patients.Results After treatment, compared with control group, the serum level of TNFαwas lower in the experimental group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05); the serum level of IL-6 and IL-8 were lower in the experimental group(P<0.05); the serum CK-MB activity was lower in the experimental group(P<0.05).Conclusion The salbutamol combined with noninvasive ventilator can significantly reduce the serum levels of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8 and serum CK-MB activity in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with respiratory failure, reduce the inflammatory reaction and reduce the myocardial damage,and have a guiding significance for clinica.

Objective: To explore influence of rehabilitative exercise on left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), diastolic function and blood pressure in patients with hypertension.Methods: A total of 120 patients diagnosed as essential hypertension complicated LVH in our hospital were enrolled.They were randomly and equally divided into routine treatment group (received routine antihypertensive treatment) and rehabilitative exercise group (received rehabilitative exercise based on routine antihypertensive medication).Blood pressure control rate on four, eight and 12 weeks after treatment, color Doppler echocardiographic outcomes before and 12 weeks after treatment were compared between two groups.Results: Blood pressure control rate after 12 weeks in rehabilitative exercise group was significantly higher than that of routine treatment group (76.7% vs.58.3%, P=0.03).Echocardiography indicated that compared with before treatment, there were significant improvements in left ventricular diastolic function and LVH indexes except left ventricular end-diastolic dimension in both groups after treatment, P<0.01 all;but there were no significant difference in left ventricular diastolic function and LVH indexes between two groups after treatment, P>0.05 all.Conclusion: Rehabilitative exercise training can significantly improve blood pressure control rate in patients with essential hypertension.Short-medium term exercise training fails to significantly improve left ventricular hypertrophy and diastolic function than routine treatment group, the effect of long-term training needs to be confirmed by more researches.

Objective To explore the improving way to repair the lower one-third of leg soft tissue defect transferred the adjacent flap with non-main vessel pedicle. Methods Analyzing 42 cases.using 4 kinds flaps with nonmain vessel pedicle.If it is fine the skin around soft tissue defect of the lower one-third shank,choosing adjacent adversed sural neurotaneous vascular flap or sapheenous nerve vascular flap.If the skin damaged,chosing gastrocnemius flap.If the soft tissue defect was large,combined adversed sural neurotaneous vascular flap with gastrocnemius flap.Osteomyelitis and peroneus previs musculocutaneous flaps were choosed for small soft tissue defect.
