Objective To introduce improved program for traction wire production in endoscopic submucosal dis-section assisted by oral traction. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on 40 patients who received en-doscopy intervention. Through the use of improved traction and normal traction, they were divided into experimental group and control group. Then analyze and compare their clinical data like gender, age, traction line installed perfect time, fixed lesions after hemostatic clip off times, one-time complete resection, enbloc resection rate, bleeding and perforation and other complications and other clinical conditions. Results The improvement time was (53.30 ±12.85) s in experimental group, it was significantly shorter than that in control group (105.00 ± 11.68) s ( = 3.42, <0.05). The experimental group fixed lesions after hemostatic clamp off times were significantly less than that in con-trol group (χ2=2.37, <0.05). Conclusions Using innovative methods, adequate preoperative preparation, the op-erator's tacit understanding of nursing cooperation, close attention to the disease after surgery is the key to achieve the desired results of endoscopic surgery.

Premature birth is one of the main challenges faced by modern obstetrics, and there is still a lack of effective treatment methods. The successful pregnancy process depends on the immune balance at the maternal fetal interface, and due to the unique antigen presenting molecules and immune recognition receptors on the surface of macrophages, they play a crucial role in maternal fetal immune tolerance. The dysfunction of uterine macrophages can lead to various adverse pregnancy outcomes. This review summarizes the latest research progress on the origin of macrophages, their specialization in the uterine microenvironment, their physiological functions at different stages of pregnancy, and their role in preterm delivery.

MethodsA multicenter,single-blind,randomized,positive-control study was conducted.One-hundred and twenty patients aging 18-65 years with skin ulcer were randomly classified into the test and control group at a ratio of 2 ∶ 1 to be treated with triethanolamine cream and recombinant bovine basic fibroblast growth factor gel respectively for 4 weeks.The healing rate of ulcer,granulation tissue production rate and epithelialization rate were calculated.Results After the beginning of treatment,the condition of all patients was improved with time.In total,76 out of 80 triethanolamine-treated patients and 38 out of 40 basic fibroblast growth factor gel-treated patients completed the 4-week trial.Significant differences were observed in the healing rate of ulcer,epithelialization rate and granulation tissue production rate between the test and control group (71.05％ vs.34.21％,P =0.0002; 85％ vs.50％,P =0.0001; 66.25％ vs.37.5％,P =0.0035).No adverse events occurred in any of the patients.Conclusions Triethanolamine cream seems superior to recombinant bovine basic fibroblast growth factor gel with regard to the healing rate of ulcer,epithelialization rate and granulation tissue production rate,and may be a promising drug for the treatment of skin ulcer.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effects of anatomical reconstruction of the deltoid ligament and medial migration calcaneal osteotomy in the treatment of chronic ankle instability after trauma.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze of the clinical data of 16 patients with chronic post-traumatic instability of the medial malleolus who had been treated at The Eighth Department of Orthopedics, Foshan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from December 2015 to February 2017. There were 14 males and 2 females with an age of (28.1±4.2) years. Seven left sides and 9 right sides were affected; the time from injury to operation was (8.9±2.4) months. Before operation, X-rays (anteroposterior, lateral and Saltzman views) and MRI of weight-bearing ankle were taken. All patients were treated by anatomical reconstruction of the deltoid ligament using the autologous semitendinosus and medial migration osteotomy of the calcaneus. The time for injury healing and occurrence of complications were recorded. The talus tilt angle, Meary angle, hindfoot valgus angle, visual analogue scale (VAS), and the American Orthopedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot function score were compared between the preoperation and the last follow-up. The Sefton evaluation for efficacy in ankle ligament reconstruction was used to assess stability of the ankle joint.Results:Of this cohort, 14 patients were followed up for (16.4±4.9) months after operation and 2 patients lost to follow-up. The 14 patients all returned to normal physical activities 3 months after operation. All incisions healed at the first stage with no infection. One patient experienced pain at the site for harvest of the semitendinosus but the symptoms were relieved after rehabilitation treatment like massage and physical therapy. At the last follow-up, the talus tilt angle [1.0 (0.0, 2.0)°], Meary angle (1.4°±4.2°), hindfoot valgus angle (3.2°±2.4°), VAS score [0.5 (0.0, 1.0) points], and AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score [(89.2±6.1) points] were all significantly improved compared with the preoperative values [8.3°±1.8°, 0.8°±3.8°, 9.9°±3.4°, (5.7±2.5) points, and (49.6±9.8) points] (all P<0.05). According to the Sefton evaluation, the stability of the ankle joint was excellent in 9 cases, good in 4 cases, and fair in 1 case. Conclusion:In the treatment of chronic ankle instability after trauma, anatomical reconstruction of the deltoid ligament and medial migration calcaneal osteotomy is safe and effective, resulting in limited complications.

Objective:To analyze the correlation between capillary filling time (CRT) and lactate clearance rate in patients with septic shock, so as to provide reference for the clinical application of CRT in patients with septic shock.Methods:A prospective study was conducted on 70 patients with septic shock. CRT, mean arterial pressure (map) and sequential organ failure (SOFA) score, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Scoring System (APACHE Ⅱ) score, mechanical ventilation and lactate clearance rate were collected at 3 sites (forehead, knee and nail bed) respectively at 2 time points after admission and 6 hours after admission. The correlation between CRT changes and lactate clearance rate was compared.Results:When lactate clearance rate of more than 10% in 6 hours, the Pearson coefficients of the three sites were 0.823 for nail bed ( P<0.05), 0.232 for forehead and 0.254 for knee ( P>0.05). When lactate clearance rate of less than 10% in 6 hours, the Pearson coefficients of the three sites were 0.299 for nail bed, 0.247 for forehead and 0.254 for knee ( P>0.05). Conclusion:When lactate clearance rate of more than 10% in 6 hours, there is a good correlation between the CRT of nail bed and the lactate clearance rate of patients. The CRT of nail bed can be a practical tool for clinical evaluation of microcirculation.

Objective:To explore the curative effect of wide pedicled with double-vessel flap of posterior lateral calf in repair of soft tissue defect in hind foot.Methods:From January 2018 to June 2021, 12 patients with soft tissue defects on hind foot were reconstructed with double-vessel flaps pedicled perforator of peroneal artery and sural nerve nutrient vessels in the Department of Trauma Orthopaedics, No.940 Hospital of Chinese People's Liberation Army Joint Service Support Force. The patients were 8 males and 4 females, aged 9-45(27.17±12.14) years old. Time after injury to admission was 6-24(10.17±4.80) hours. Six patients were with simple soft tissue defects, 2 with tendon defects, 3 with bone defects and 1 with postoperative infection due to an open fracture. The sizes of soft tissue defect ranged from 4 cm×5 cm-8 cm×12 cm. Soft tissue defects were reconstructed by transfer of posterolateral calf flaps, and the bone defects were repaired by phase I or phase II bone grafts or antibiotic cement and membrane induction according to the wound surface. For larger bone defects, stage-II bone transport was carried out to restore the length of the hind foot. Defects of Achilles tendon were reconstructed by direct suture or tendon transposition. Foot functions were evaluated by American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Surgery(AOFAS) ankle-posterior sufficient scale, visual analogue scale(VSA) score and flap healing. All patients were included in postoperative follow-up regularly through outpatient clinic or via WeChat.Results:All 12 patients had postoperative follow-up that lasted for 6-24(12.92±6.22) months. One flap developed dark purple colour with swelling at the distal end of the flap 3 days after surgery. It eventually healed after removed some sutures from the pedicle together with blood-letting on the flap surface. Three flaps developed local infection, and they were cured after debridement, dressing change and the use of sensitive antibiotics. The remaining 8 patients had achieved good appearance of flaps and normal ankle function. According to AOFAS, scores of ankle-posterior sufficiency scale increased from 14-45(25.25±5.42) before surgery up to 65-96(75.92±7.73) at the final follow-up. Of the 12 patients, 8 were in excellent, 2 in good and 2 in fair. The VAS scores decreased from 5-8(6.55±1.13) before surgery down to 0-4(1.55±1.37) at the final follow-up. The difference had statistics significance( P<0.01). All patients had satisfactory recovery of ankle function, with the extension at 15-20 degrees and plantar flexion of 30-40 degrees. The donor site healed well and all skin grafts survived. Conclusion:The double-vessel flap pedicled with perforating branch of peroneal artery and nutrient vessels of sural nerve can be used for reconstruction of soft tissue defect of hind foot. It achieved good surgical effects with reliable blood supply, smooth venous return, strong anti-infection ability, satisfactory appearance at donor site and flap itself, as well as a good recovery of foot function.

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.
