OBJECTIVE:To study the analgesic and anti-inflammatory action of Lamiphlomis from different growing areas.METHODS:The analgesic action was observed with hot plate test and writhing test and the anti-inflammatory action with xylolinduced ear swelling test and acetic acid-induced peritoneal capillary permeability test in mice.RESULTS:Lamiphl_ omis could obviously inhibit the pain induced by hot plate and acetic acid as well as the ear swelling induced by xylol and the capillary permeability resulting from peritoneal injection of acetic acid.CONCLUSION:Lamiphlomis possesses analgesic and anti-inflammatory action and on this point,the actions of Lamiphlomis from three growing areas are more or less alike.

Objective To observe the efficacy and safety of the treatment on postoperative pain of anal disease by ear-point taping and pressuring. Methods Using random number table method,118 patients with postoperative pain of anal diseases were divided into 5 groups, namely 26 cases of analgesia group treated by main ear-point, 20 cases of group one treated by analgesia compatibility ear-point, 22 cases of group two treated by analgesia compatibility ear-point, 27 patients of group three treated by analgesia compatibility ear-point, and 23 patients of control group. The main ear-point for analgesia included TF(4) and the sensitive point matching with diseased area;Based on the main ear-point, compatibility ear-point group one add to AT(4)、CO(18)、AH(6a);compatibility ear-point group two add to CO(7)、HX(2)、HX(5);compatibility ear-point group three add to AH(6a)、AT(4)、HX(5);and the control group was treated with oral indomethacin tablets. All five groups were treated for 30 min, and the clinical analgesic efficacy and safety were evaluated. Results Pain scores decreased rates of the main ear-point analgesia group, compatibility ear-point analgesia group one, compatibility ear-point analgesia group two, compatibility ear-point analgesia group three, and the control analgesia group at 10 min after treatment was (6.49±1.98)%, (5.90±1.52)%, (6.10±2.22)%, (6.64±2.25)%, and (7.61± 1.10)%respectively. Compared with the control group , the main ear-point analgesia group or the compatibility ear-point analgesia group one or the compatibility ear-point analgesia group two, the difference was significant (P<0.05) . At 30 min after treatment, integral reduce pain rate of the above groups was (0.45±0.23)%, (0.43±0.18)%, (0.42±0.19)%, (0.38±0.25)%, and (0.38±0.23)%, the difference was not statistically significant between the control group and the other four groups (P>0.05). Conclusion The effects of 10 min treatment of ear-point taping and pressuring treating postoperative pain of anal disease was significantly better than the control group,however the 30 min treatment did not show significant difference.

Objective:To explore the clinical effect of ALTF transfer with cross-limb bridged "Y" shape vascular anastomosis in repair of complex soft tissue defects in calf.Methods:From August 2010 to September 2020, 33 patients(23 males and 10 females) with complex traumatic soft tissue defects in calf were treated. Preoperative angiography and intraoperative exploration confirmed that there was only 1 main vessel remained in the affected calf or the wound surface and the vessel could not be anastomosed with the vascular pedicle of the ALTF. The size of flap were 16 cm × 8 cm to 25 cm × 18 cm. Two patients received bilobed ALTFs. A "Y" shape anastomosis between the artery of ALTF vascular pedicle and the posterior tibial artery of the contralateral lower limbs was made in all 33 patients to establish the blood supply to the transferred free ALTF. The "Y" shape cross-limb bridged blood vessels at the proximal end of the vascular pedicle artery of the flap were embedded at both ends of the cut-off superior ankle posterior tibial artery of the contralateral lower limb. The vein of the flap was anastomosed with the saphenous vein that associates with the posterior tibial artery. The surface of the suspended blood vessel "bridge" was wrapped with a free skin craft, and the lower limbs were fixed in a straight and parallel position with an external fixation frame. The perfused area of the flap was directly sutured or covered with a free skin craft. The vascular bridge was kept for 3 to 6 weeks before being separated. Outpatient follow-up after discharge.Results:All the patients were entered the postoperative follow-up was 13 months to 7 years, in an average of 25 months. Among the 33 flaps, 31 survived completely, except 1 had necrosis and the other 1 had partial necrosis at the distal end of the flap. The flaps received good blood supply, hence with soft texture and satisfactory appearance. Doppler or DSA was performed after the surgery on the posterior tibial artery of the healthy limb, and the vascular pulsation and patency were found normal. Donor sites for the free skin graft healed well.Conclusion:The ALTF transfer with cross-limb bridged "Y" vascular anastomosis is one of the effective techniques and it was employed in the repair of complex defects of calf soft tissue. It solved the tissue that there was only 1 main vessel or even without a suitable vessel could be anastomosed with the pedicle of the flap.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the effectiveness of Flow-through bridge anterolateral thigh flap transplantation in the treatment of complex calf soft tissue defects.
METHODS:
The clinical data of the patients with complicated calf soft tissue defects, who were treated with Flow-through bridge anterolateral thigh flap (study group, 23 cases) or bridge anterolateral thigh flap (control group, 23 cases) between January 2008 and January 2022, were retrospectively analyzed. All complex calf soft tissue defects in the two groups were caused by trauma or osteomyelitis, and there was only one major blood vessel in the calf or no blood vessel anastomosed with the grafted skin flap. There was no significant difference between the two groups in general data such as gender, age, etiology, size of leg soft tissue defect, and time from injury to operation ( P>0.05). The lower extremity functional scale (LEFS) was used to evaluate the sufferred lower extremity function of the both groups after operation, and the peripheral blood circulation score of the healthy side was evaluated according to the Chinese Medical Association Hand Surgery Society's functional evaluation standard for replantation of amputated limbs. Weber's quantitative method was used to detect static 2-point discrimination (S2PD) to evaluate peripheral sensation of the healthy side, and the popliteal artery flow velocity, toenail capillary filling time, foot temperature, toe blood oxygen saturation of the healthy side, and the incidence of complications were compared between the two groups.
RESULTS:
No vascular or nerve injury occurred during operation. All flaps survived, and 1 case of partial flap necrosis occurred in both groups, which healed after free skin grafting. All patients were followed up 6 months to 8 years, with a median time of 26 months. The function of the sufferred limb of the two groups recovered satisfactorily, the blood supply of the flap was good, the texture was soft, and the appearance was fair. The incision in the donor site healed well with a linear scar, and the color of the skin graft area was similar. Only a rectangular scar could be seen in the skin donor area where have a satisfactory appearance. The blood supply of the distal limb of the healthy limb was good, and there was no obvious abnormality in color and skin temperature, and the blood supply of the limb was normal during activity. The popliteal artery flow velocity in the study group was significantly faster than that in the control group at 1 month after the pedicle was cut, and the foot temperature, toe blood oxygen saturation, S2PD, toenail capillary filling time, and peripheral blood circulation score were significantly better than those in the control group ( P<0.05). There were 8 cases of cold feet and 2 cases of numbness on the healthy side in the control group, while only 3 cases of cold feet occurred in the study group. The incidence of complications in the study group (13.04%) was significantly lower than that in the control group (43.47%) ( χ 2=3.860, P=0.049). There was no significant difference in LEFS score between the two groups at 6 months after operation ( P>0.05).
CONCLUSION
Flow-through bridge anterolateral thigh flap can reduce postoperative complications of healthy feet and reduce the impact of surgery on blood supply and sensation of healthy feet. It is an effective method for repairing complex calf soft tissue defects.
