Wound healing is a complicated biological process, which consists of inflammatory cells, re-pairing cells, extracellular matrix, cell factors, et al. These factors participate in the process of wound heal-ing in great harmony and coordination. The sufferers of diabetes mellitus are vulnerable to skin injury ,which often results in non-healing or healing delay, which became an urgent difficulty and warm spot unsolved in clinic. So far, especially for the last few years, great progress has been made in the mechanism of wound non-healing of Diabetes Mellitus, mainly including signal pathways, angiopoiesis, neuropeptides, advanced glycation end products, cell apoptosis and matrix metaltoproteinases.

Objective To explore the suitable range of PT-INR for Chinese people with acute deep venous thrombosis (DVT) treated by warfarin anticoagulation therapy. Methods Eighty seven DVT patients with indications to warfarin anticoagulation therapy were enrolled into the study and divide into two groups randomly. Patients from group A (n=47) took warfarin to adjust the PT-INR to range 1.7-2. 5,and patients from group B (n =40) took warfarin to adjust the PT-INR to range 2. 0-3. 0. The therapeutic effectiveness and the incidence of bleeding complications were compared between two groups. Results Forty-six patients (46/47,98%) had limb swelling symptoms relief in group A with one exception,which was diagnosed as pelvic tumor by ultrasonography,CT and tumor markers examination later. No patient underwent bleeding in group A Thirty eight patients (38/40,93%) had limb swelling symptoms relief in group group B with two exceptions,of which one case had Cockett syndrome and the other one had unknown aetiology. The total effective rate of group B was 95% . As to the complications of this group,3 patients had slight gum and nasal mucous membrane bleeding, 1 patient developed gastrointestinal bleeding. No patients had pulmonary embolism in both groups. Conclusion For Chinese people,anticoagulation therapy of acute deep venous thrombosis to adjust the range of PT-INR to 1.7-2. 5, shows good effectiveness and significantly reduced bleeding complications.

In order to explore the pathogenic characters,diagnosis and treatment of canine leptospirosis,a retrospective analysis of the pathogenetic factor,diagnosis and treatment of three dogs were reported which diagnosed as canine leptospirosis in China Agricultural University Teaching Animal Hospital from August to November,2015.The infected dogs showed symptoms of depressed,jaundice,anorexia and vomiting.Two of them had fever history and contacted the water resource outside before getting ill.All three dogs were confirmed anemia,liver and kidney damage by laboratory examination.They were diagnosed with canine leptospirosis according to the positive results of the Leptospira PCR examination base on urine.During the diagnosis and treatment process,one of them was dead,the rest two recovered after antibiotic and symptomatic therapy.In conclusion,dogs which infected with leptospirosis may have a contact with the infected water before.The Leptospira PCR examination base on urine can be used for the diagnosis method of the disease.As to treatment,the use of penicillin and tetracycline drugs such as doxycycline is recommended.

Objective To evaluate the curative effect of endovascular treatment for Leriche syndrome.Methods The clinical data of 57 patients with Leriche syndrome,who were admitted to authors' hospital during the period from September 2010 to October 2014,were retrospectively analyzed.The curative effect of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) was analyzed.Results Among the 57 patients (65 diseased limbs in total),simple PTA was employed in 2,catheter directed thrombolysis (CDT) with subsequent PTA and stenting in 5,and PTA plus stenting in 50.A total of 97 stents were implanted,the technical success rate was 100％.After the treatment,the ankle brachial index (ABI) increased from preoperative (0.42±0.22) to postoperative (0.83±0.15),the difference between the two data was statistically significant (P＜0.01).Thepatients were followed up for (9.8±2.8) months.The 6-month and 12-month primary patency rates were 95.4％ and 90.7％ respectively,the postoperative secondary patency rate was 96.4％.After the treatment,the symptoms of lower limb ischemia were improved in all patients.During perioperative period,iliac artery rupture due to balloon dilatation occurred in 2 patients,pseudoaneurysm at brachial aaery puncture point in one patient,hematoma at puncture point in 3 patients,cerebral infarction in 2 patients and myocardial infarction in one patient.One patient developed contrast-induced nephropathy and finally died of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome.The perioperative mortality was 1.75％.One patient developed in-stent obstruction in 3 months after two stage treatment,and artificial vascular bypass grafting had to be carried out.Conclusion For the treatment of Leriche syndrome,PTA is safe and reliable,it carries less complications and lower perioperative mortality with satisfactory short-term patency rate.(J Intervent Radiol,2017,26:221-224)

Objective To investigate the role of Wnt signaling pathway hypofunction mediated by dephosphorylation ofβ-catenin in the impaired wound healing of type 1 diabetic rats. Methods The back skin defect wounds were produced in rats with type 1 diabetes. These rats were divided into control, diabetes, lithium chloride treatment, and epidermal growth factor ( EGF) treatment groups. The situation of back wound healing, the ratio ofβ-catenin positive cells,β-catenin, phosphorylatedβ-catenin, and vascular endothelial growth factor ( VEGF) levels were detected. Results Compared to diabetes group, the wound granulation tissue was more mature, wound healing time was shorter, and healing rate, as well as the ratio ofβ-catenin positive cells, dephosphorylatedβ-catenin, and VEGF levels, were higher in normal group, lithium chloride treatment group, and EGF treatment group ( P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). Conclusion The hypofunction of Wnt signaling pathway is involved in the process of wound healing in type 1 diabetic rats, of which the dephosphorylation ofβ-catenin is the key point. EGF may play a beneficial role in the wound healing of type 1 diabetic rat models via Wnt pathway.

Objective To understand health seeking behaviors and influencing factors among freshmen before enrollment in Kunming Medical University in Yunnan Province and to find out the existing medical problems and provide advice to guarantee undergraduates' seeking proper treatment. Methods We used cluster sampling method to select 1044 freshmen whose last digit of student number was singular and questionnaire was used to do the survey which was conducted within 3 months of admission. Statistical methods were descriptive statistics and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results The main reasons for students to see the doctor were acute diseases (29.4%) and common disease dominated by cold and fever (34.9%), most of the students went to the medical institutions because of mild medication which can be treated by taking pills. Family location for rural areas had small number of students to see the doctors, the number of students seek medical services with low income families were larger than the high counterparts;students had poor perceived health status tended to seek medical services. Conclusions Family location, incomes and perceived health status are important factors influencing health seeking behavior. The current medical insurance system for college students could be further improved, and colleges and universities should take appropriate measures to provide the conditions for students to seek proper treatment.

Objective To investigate the role of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in impaired wound healing of diabetes mellitus.Methods The back skin defect was produced in rats with type1diabetes.All of these rats were divided into normal group, diabetes group, lithium chloride group, and epidermal growth factor (EGF) group.The back wound healing and β-catenin expression were observed.Results There were no signs of infection in the wound of rats after injury.Compared with diabetic group, the wound healing time was shorter,wound healing rate was higher, wound cavity volume was smaller, granulation tissue was more mature, and β-catenin positive cell rate was higher in normal group, lithium chloride group, and EGF group(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Conclusions Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway is involved in the process of wound healing in diabetic rats.

Objective To investigate the effect of pressure ulcer risk warning system in the pressure ulcer management in patients undergoing thoracolumbar fracture surgery.Methods A retrospective case control study was performed to analyze the clinical data of 120 patients with thoracolumbar fracture who underwent posterior thoracolumbar pedicle screw fixation and intervertebral bone graft fusion surgery at People's Hospital of Henan Province from October 2016 to September 2018.There were 76 males and 44 females,aged 45-80 years [(59.2 ± 7.2) years].A total of 60 patients received treatment and care under the pressure ulcer early warning system (early warning group),while 60 patients were given assessment form for pressure ulcer management (control group).The time of filling in the assessment form,the implementation score of pressure ulcer prevention measures,the incidence of pressure ulcer,visual analogue pain score (VAS) and patient satisfaction were compared between the two groups.Results In the control group and early warning group,the time of filling in the form was (121.5 ± 9.0) minutes and (11.3 ± 2.0) minutes (P ＜ 0.01),the implementation score of pressure ulcer prevention measures was (85.9 ± 3.8) points and (96.0 ± 2.2)points (P ＜ 0.01),and the pressure ulcer incidence was 25％ (15 patients) and 3％ (two patients),respectively (P ＜0.01).In the control group,the preoperative VAS was (7.3 ± 1.3) points,and the VAS at 6 hours,24 hours,48 hours,72 hours after operation were (3.7 ± 1.1) points,(3.2 ± 0.9) points,(2.4 ± 1.0) points,(2.3 ± 0.8) points,respectively.In the early warning group,the preoperative VAS was (7.4 ± 1.3) points,and the VAS at 6 hours,24 hours,48 hours,72 hours after operation were (2.9 ± 0.7) points,(2.4 ± 0.7) points,(1.8 ± 0.7) points,(1.6 ± 0.8) points,respectively.There was no significant difference in preoperative VAS between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05),while significant differences were found between the postoperative VAS (P ＜ 0.01).The satisfaction score in the control group was (94.6 ± 1.4) points,while that of the early warning group was (98.3 ± 1.1) points (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion For patients undergoing posterior thoracolumbar pedicle screw fixation and intervertebral bone graft fusion surgery,the pressure ulcer risk warning system is convenient and reduces the incidence of pressure ulcer,thus alleviating patients'pain and improving patients' satisfaction.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of locking proximal femur plates (LPFP) revision and artificial hip joint revision after failure of proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA) internal fixation in elderly patients with intertrochanteric fracture.Methods:A retrospective case control study was conducted on the clinical data of 43 patients with PFNA internal fixation failure in the elderly admitted to Henan Provincial People's Hospital between March 2014 and October 2018. There were 23 males and 20 females, aged 65-83 years [(71.2±2.0)years]. The course of disease was 60-267 days [(83.1±3.6)days]. According to Evans classification, there were 11 patients with type II fractures, 13 with type III and 19 with type IV. There were 23 patients in artificial hip joint revision group and 20 patients in LPFP revision group. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative hospitalization time, total hospitalization time, Harris score and complications were recorded and evaluated in two groups.Results:All patients were followed up for 12-28 months, with an average of 13.6 months. Between artificial joint revision group and LPFP revision group, the operation time and intraoperative blood loss were similar ( P>0.05), but there were significant difference in postoperative hospitalization time [(7.1±3.2)days vs. (13.2±2.9)days] and total hospitalization time [(10.2±2.8)days vs. (16.4±3.4)days] ( P<0.05). In artificial joint revision group, the Harris hip score was (21.1±3.7)points preoperatively, and was respective (70.7±4.8)points, (74.6±4.1)points, (78.6±3.3)points, (82.9±5.2)points, (83.8±5.8)points and (84.9±6.4)points at postoperative 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12 months. In LPFP revision group, the Harris score was (21.7±3.2)points preoperatively, and was respective (59.9±2.1)points, (64.79±3.4)points, (70.1±4.2)points, (73.9±4.2)points, (76.2±6.3)points and (77.9±6.8)points at postoperative 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12 months. The Harris score in artificial joint revision group was gradually improved compared with LPFP revision group ( P<0.05). One patient with superficial wound infection occurred in each group, and the wound healed after frequent dressing changes. Distal femoral fractures occurred in one patient of artificial joint revision group and distal femoral fractures in three patients of LPFP revision group, but all patients were healed after being fixed with wire. Conclusion:For elderly patients with PFNA internal fixation failure of intertrochanteric fracture, artificial hip revision has shorter hospital stay and better hip joint function recovery than LPFP internal fixation, although the effect in operation time and intraoperative blood loss are similar.

According to the pathological characteristics of symptomatic chronic thoracic and lumbar osteoporotic vertebral fracture (SCOVF), the different clinical treatment methods are selected, including vertebral augmentation, anterior-posterior fixation and fusion, posterior decompression fixation and fusion, and posterior correction osteotomy. However, there is still a lack of a unified understanding on how to choose appropriate treatment method for SCOVF. In order to reflect the new treatment concept and the evidence-based medicine progress of SCOVF in a timely manner and standardize its treatment, the clinical guideline for surgical treatment of SCOVF is formulated in compliance with the principle of scientificity, practicability and advancement and based on the level of evidence-based medicine.
