BACKGROUND:In various clinical treatments of soft tissue defects, vacuum sealing drainage technology can effectively control wound infection, shorten the treatment time, and accelerate wound healing. OBJECTIVE:To further understand the features and characteristics of hydrated ethanol polyethylene foam vacuum sealing drainage treatment, and compare the treatment effects against soft tissue defects with the conventional dressing change treatment. METHODS:A total of 140 cases of large soft tissue defects were divided randomly into two groups. Observation group received hydrated ethanol polyethylene foam vacuum sealing drainage treatment, while control group was treated by conventional dressing change. The degree of pain relief during treatment, the family satisfaction, the survival rate of first skin-grafting, the time needed before skin-grafting, the hospitalization time, the number of operations, the readmission rates, the complication rate and other clinical effectiveness indicators were compared between the two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In the observation group, visual analog scale scores decreased 5.76±0.68, in the control group visual analog scale score decreased 2.85±0.53, with significant differences between the two groups (P < 0.05), and family satisfaction degree of the observation group was higher (P < 0.05). The survival rate of first skin-grafting of the observation group was higher than the control group (P < 0.05), the time needed before skin-grafting, the hospitalization time, the number of operations, the readmission rates, and the complication rate were lower than the control group (P < 0.05). The results showed that, compared with conventional dressing change treatment, hydrated ethanol polyethylene foam vacuum sealing drainage has advantages of light pain, short treatment time, low rate of complications, and high efficacy.

Objective To find out the correlation between MMP-13 and clinicopathological parameters of breast cancer and identify clinical significance of MMP-13 overexpression on overall survival of breast cancer.Methods Immunohistochemistry was performed on paraffin-embedded tissue microarray containing 159 tissue dots from breast cancer patients.The intensity and the extent of IHC were scored by pathologists blind to clinicopathological parameters of the specimens.Different expression profiles of MMP-13 in breat cancer tissues and paraneoplastic tissues,and correlation between MMP-13 and breast cancer clinicopathological parameters were analyzed for statistical significance respectively.The impact of MMP-13 overexpression on overall survival of breast cancer.Results MMP13 expression were significantly higher in breast cancer tissues(54.4％) than in their corresponding paraneoplastic tissues(27.5％)(P =0.003).Expression of MMP-13 in breast cancer positively correlated with lymphma node metastasis(r =0.257,P =0.006),clinical TNM classification (r =0.310,P =0.001),HER2 expression (r =0.192,P =0.041).However,no significant correlation were oberserved between MMP-13 expression and tumor size,MMP-13 expression and tumor grade,MMP-13 expression and ER expression,MMP-13 expression and PR expression respectively.Conclusions Overexpress of MMP-13 is more common in breast cancer tissues than in their corresponding paraneoplastic tissues,and is an independent prognosis indicator of breast cancer.

Objective To summarize the meticulous nursing experience of indwelling urinary catheter between the children with hypospadias during perioperative. Methods 317 cases of indwelling urethral only in the silicone Foley tube, and without other urinary diversion with hypospadias were retrospectively analyzed, summarized the fine points of nursing, including preoperative children with comprehensive risk assessment, standardized preoperative skin preparation and postoperative protective constraint, effective properly fixed catheter keep the urine drainage unobstructed, close observation of urine drainage characteristics, maintain urine collection system tightness, maintain perineal skin clean and improved extubation nursing method, and do a good job after extubation nursing. Results 266 cases were cured with a cure rate of 83.9%(266/317);the incidence of urine leakage in 42 cases, the incidence rate was 13.2%(42/317); 7 cases of urethral stenosis, the incidence rate was 2.2%(7/317); 2 cases of urethral closing, the incidence was 0.6% (2/317), none of the patients had accidental extubation. Conclusions The meticulous nursing has a better effect in hypospadias patients during the perioperative period and it can reduce the incidence of postoperative complications;shorten the time of hospitalization and alleviate the suffering of children;improve the quality of nursing service, which is worthy of clinical application.

OBJECTIVE:To prepare nattokinase immunoliposomes and its lyophilized product and to evaluate its pharmaceutical quality. METHODS: Nattokinse liposomes were prepared by film dispersion method, then the immunoliposomes were prepared by carbodiimide method coupled anti-human fibrin D-dimer monoclone antibody SZ-63 and lyophilized and evaluated about its pharmaceutical quality. RESULTS: Lyophilized immunoliposomes were multilamellar vesicles with its mean diameter, Zeta potentials at 251.6 nm, —34.6 mV, respectively. The lyophilized product of nattokinase immunoliposomes exhibited good appearance and satisfactory redispersibility, with its loss on drying at 14.30% and critical relative humidity at 45.66%. CONCLUSION: Nattokinase immunoliposomes and its lyophilized product have been prepared successfully.

Objective To investigate the changes of hair growth with the increase of age and to develop a new practical method to evaluate the extent of aging. Methods After the approval of the ethnic committee, 96 healthy volunteers (44 males, 52 females, aged 30 ~ 78 years) were recruited into the study and divided into 4 groups based on the age: 30-group, 40-group, 50-group and 60-group. Macrophotographs were taken from the vertex. Hair density and percentages of black hairs were counted using Photoshop7.0 software. Ten hairs were randomly plucked from the specified scalp area,and the diameters of hair shaft and hair bulb were examined by a micrometer. The percentages of the follicles, based on their morphology, at different phases of the hair cycle, were counted. Results With the increase of age, the hair density, diameters of hair shaft as well as hair bulb, the percentages of anagen follicles and grey hairs all decreased, while the percentages of telogen follicles and white hairs increased, and significant difference was found between the 60-group and other 3 groups. In each group, the difference between males and females was found only in some parameters. The diameter of hair bulb positively correlated with that of hair shaft. Conclusion This study suggests that the parameters of hair growth could be used to help rating the extent of aging.

Purpose To investigate the clinicopathological changes, immuniohistochemistry and molecular genetics phenotypic charac-teristics of the alveolar soft part sarcoma ( ASPS) . Methods 16 cases of ASPS were studied with clinicopathological, cytochemistry technique and immunohistochemical staining, two cases of ASPS were studied by FISH. Results There were 6 males and 10 females with the age 8~58 years (median age 31. 7 years). The tumors were located at limbs, shoulder and back, tongue, vocal cords, lung, cervix, and ureter. The clinical manifestations of the patients was a slowly growing mass. Histopathologically the tumor showed typical organ-like or acinar-like structure with sinus-like blood vessels and the fibrous septa formation. Sometime the clear or abundant eosino-philic granular cytoplasm of the tumors were obvious. The tumor cells had a crystalline substance formation by PAS staining. The tumor cells were positive for TFE3 and Cathepsin K by immunohistochemical staining. The ASPL-TFE3 gene fusion detection of tumor cells were present. Conclusion ASPS often located on the limbs of young patients. It may misdiagnosed as malignant epithelial tumors, primary or metastatic adenocarcinoma and paraganglioma when the tumor locate on a rare anatomical parts or an organs, such as tongue, vocal cords, cervix, ureter, etc. It is valueable that the typical alveolar-like structure of the tumor and the expression for TFE3 and Cathepsin K for the pathological diagnosis of ASPS. It is an important indicator that the ASPL-TFE3 gene fusion detection by FISH for the tumor.
