Chronic refractory wound (CRW) is one of the most challengeable issues in clinic due to complex pathogenesis, long course of disease and poor prognosis. Experts need to conduct systematic summary for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW due to complex pathogenesis and poor prognosis, and standard guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW should be created. The Guideline forthe diagnosis and treatment of chronic refractory wounds in orthopedic trauma patients ( version 2023) was created by the expert group organized by the Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons, Chinese Orthopedic Association, Chinese Society of Traumatology, and Trauma Orthopedics and Multiple Traumatology Group of Emergency Resuscitation Committee of Chinese Medical Doctor Association after the clinical problems were chosen based on demand-driven principles and principles of evidence-based medicine. The guideline systematically elaborated CRW from aspects of the epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment, postoperative management, complication prevention and comorbidity management, and rehabilitation and health education, and 9 recommendations were finally proposed to provide a reliable clinical reference for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility of a novel in vitro fertilization (IVF) strategy with levonorgestrel intrauterine system (Mirena) in situ in infertility patients after successful conservative treatment of early well-differentiated endometrial adenocarcinoma (EC) and atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH). Methods:The clinical characteristics of infertility patients after a complete regression of previous EC and AEH who underwent IVF with a Mirena in situ from March 2018 to December 2019 in Center for Gynecological Endocrinology & Reproductive Medicine, Peking Union Medical College Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. These patients underwent one or more cycles to harvest at least 4 blastocysts cryopreserved, before removing the Mirena and re-evaluating the endometrium. Then the outcomes of frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) were commenced. Results:A total of 20 patients were included with a median age of 33 years. The complete regression of endometrial lesion was achieved at 4.3 months. Thirty-four IVF cycles were conducted in total, leading to a median oocytes retrieved of 8. We had attempted 21 embryo trasfer but only 14 cycles were effective, and 5 patients got clinical pregnancy and 2 patients had ongoing pregnancy.Conclusion:It is a supposedly practical way that IVF with the Mirena until pooling enough blastocysts before removing the device and initiating embryo trasfer for assisting reproduction and endometrial protection in patients after fertility-sparing treatment of EC or AEH.

Objective: To investigate the incidence and risk factors of extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs) in children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Methods: The clinical data of 161 children with IBD was collected from the electronic medical records in the Department of Pediatrics, Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, School of Medicine from January 2012 to December 2017. These patients were divided into Crohn′s disease (CD) group and ulcerative colitis (UC) group, accounting for 82.0% (132 cases) and 18.0%(29 cases), respectively. The incidence of EIMs in each group was analyzed. The potential risk factors of EIMs including the IBD phenotype, gender, age, location of the CD lesion, disease activity of CD, and the presence of perianal lesion were analyzed with logistic regression model. Results: Eighty-eight patients (54.7%) had EIMs. The main EIMs were immune-mediated EIMs and growth retardation, accounting for 41.0% (66/161) and 24.2% (39/161), respectively. Aphthous ulcer (39/161, 23.0%) was the most common symptom among immune-mediated EIMs, followed by arthropathy (20/161, 12.4%) and skin lesions (19/161, 11.8%). Forty-three patients (26.7%) had EIMs before being diagnosed as IBD. Fifty-eight (65.9%) patients had only one EIM during the whole course of IBD. By logistic regression analysis, CD (OR=5.536, 95%CI:1.825-16.788) and perianal disease (OR=1.969, 95%CI:1.035-3.746) were the risk factors of immune-mediated EIMs. Meanwhile, CD (OR=11.319, 95%CI: 1.487-86.179), younger than six-year-old at diagnosis (OR=8.556, 95%CI: 3.109-23.545), moderate to severe activity of CD (OR=3.447, 95%CI: 1.196-9.934) and perianal disease (OR=3.361, 95%CI: 1.720-7.793) increased the risk of growth retardation. Conclusions The children with IBD have a high incidence of EIMs, which were more common in CD than in UC. The risk factors of developing EIMs include CD, perianal diseases, younger than six-year-old at diagnosis and moderate to severe activity of CD.

Objective To explore the effects of clinical psychological intervention on anxiety and depression in hemodialysis patients .Methods Hemodialysis patients were randomly divided into two groups:psychological inter-vention group and control group ,25 patients in each group .In intervention group ,besides routine clinical treatment and nursing measures ,we analyzed the clinical information of the patients ,consulted the relevant documents ,combined the evidence and clinical experience ,and finally conducted the psychological intervention .Self-Rating Anxiety Scale and Self-Rating Depression Scale of these patients were analyzed .Results Before the intervention , the SAS and SDS scores of intervention group and control group were (57.3 ±1.5) versus (56.9 ±1.6) and (55.3 ±2.3) versus (56.1 ±3.5),respectively.The t values were 0.912(P>0.05) and 0.955(P>0.05),respectively.After interven-tion,the score before and after the trial between these two groups were significantly different (P<0.05).The SAS and SDS scores of intervention group and control group were (16.4 ±0.9) versus (10.1 ±1.3) and (14.3 ±2.1) ver-sus (9.7 ±1.5),respectively.Conclusion Clinical psychological intervention can effectively relieve anxiety and depression in hemodialysis patients .

Objective To compare the internal fixation methods for treatment of intertrochanteric fractures in elderly patients.Methods One hundred and sixty four elderly patients with intertrochanteric fractures were treated from June 2006 to September 2011.The fractures were fixed with dynamic hip screws (DHS,n =42),locking proximal femur plate (LPFP,n =40),Gamma nails (n =36) or proximal femoral nail anti-rotation (PFNA,n =46),respectively.The clinical data were collected and the operative time,blood loss,time of clinical healing,postoperative complications and Harris hip scores of 6 months after surgery were compared among groups.Results All patients were followed-up for 6 to 36 months.The operative times of DHS,LPFP,Gamma nails and PFNA groups were (103 ± 15),(90 ± 13),(79 ± 11)and (65 ±9)min,respectively(F =2.87,P ＜0.05).The blood loss of 4 groups was (202 ±23),(181 ±23),(98 ± 13) and (87 ± 11) ml,respectively (F =3.21,P ＜ 0.05).The times of clinical fracture healing were (16.1±1.9),(14.6±1.8),(12.9±1.7) and (11.5±1.4) weeks,respectively(F=2.66,P＜0.05).The postoperative complications of 4 groups were 4/42,3/40,2/36 and 1/46,respectively (x2 =5.67,P ＜0.05).The Harris hip scores of 6 months after surgery of 4 groups were 81％ (34/42),85％ (34/40),89％ (32/36)and 93％ (43/46),respectively(H =20.03,P ＜0.05).Conclusions In treatment for intertrochanteric fractures in elderly patients,the efficacy of intramedullary fixation (Gamma nails and PFNA) is better than extramedullary fixation DHS and LPFP).PFNA is more effective than other 3 methods and should be preferentially chosen.

Objective To study the effects of electroacupuncture (EA) on the proliferation and differentiation of neural stem cells (NSCs),and to explore any effect of EA in neurological rehabilitation and its mechanism.Methods Middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) was used to establish a model of cerebral infarction in 120 Wistar rats.They were then randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group,both of which were further subdivided into 1,3,7,14,21 and 28 day sub-groups with 10 in each sub-group.Bromodeoxyuridine (Brdu) was given at the 1st,2nd,6th,13th,20th and 27th day to detect any proliferation and differentiation of NSCs.After 7 days the motor function of the two groups was evaluated using a beam walking test.Rats were sacrificed at the different time points and Brdu labeled cells and nestin-positive cells were determined by immunohistochemistry.The level of basic fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) mRNA was determined by in-situ hybridization.The results were analyzed using a micro-image analysis system.Results The Brdu-labeled cell counts and nestin-positive cells were significantly different between the treatment and control groups at each time point.Motor function improved significantly in the treatment group with EA stimulation compared with the control group,but there was no significant difference between the 21 day and 28 day sub-groups in the treatment group.The expression levels of bFGF-2 mRNA were significantly different between the treatment and control groups at the early time points (up to the 14th day).Conclusions EA can promote proliferation of NSCs and increase the expression of FGF-2 mRNA,particularly early after cerebral infarction.It may be one of mechanisms of EA's effectiveness in treating ischemic stroke.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between endometriosis fertility index (EFI) and pregnancies after laparoscopic surgery in endometriosis-associated infertility.Methods From Jan.2005 to Jan.2010,medical documents of 350 infertile patients due to endometriosis undergoing laparoscopic surgery were studied retrospectively.Pregnancy outcomes were followed up by telephone.EFI was calculated by history factors,least function score and some aspects of the revised American Fertility Society (r-AFS) endometriosis stage.The cumulative pregnancy rate was calculated and compared by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis.Results Within 3 years after surgery,the cumulative pregnancy rates among patients with EFI score 8,9,10 were 62.5％,69.8％ and 81.1％,respectively.There was no significant difference in pregnancy rates among those three groups of patients ( P =0.24 ).The cumulative pregnancy rates among patients with EFI score 5,6,7 were 49.8％,43.9％ and 41.6％,respectively,which did not reach statistical difference ( P =0.83 ).The cumulative pregnancy rates of EFI score 8 - 10 was significantly higher than that of EFI score 5 -7 (71.8％ vs.44.4％,P =0.000).The patients with EFI score 0 -4 was quite small with only 33 cases,among which 15 cases were pregnant.Conclusions There is relationship between EFI and pregnancy in patients with endometriosis-associated infertility.EFI is meaningful to guide post surgical treatment.

BACKGROUND:Growth-associated protein-43 is the primary substance for constructing plasticity of central nervous system, which is recognized as the first molecular marker for studying growth and repairing injury of nerves. OBJECTIVE: To explore the expression of growth-associated protein-43 in rats with focal cerebral ischemia following bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) transplantation.DEISNG, TIME AND SETTING: A randomized, controlled, animal study was performed at the Laboratory of Department of Neurology, Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University and Doctoral Scientific Research Work Station of C-BONS Pharmacy, Hubei, China, from March 2006 to October 2007.MATERIALS: Sixty adult Sprague Dawley rats, with clean grade, irrespective of genders, weighing (180±20) g, were randomly divided into the model, sham operated, and MSCs transplantation groups, with 20 animals in each group. METHODS: Additional 4 Sprague Dawiey rats, aged 2 months, were selected to isolate and culture MSCs, which was labeled with 5-Bromo-2,-deoxyuridine (BrdU). In the sham operated group, the right internal carotids were deligated after anaesthesia. The remained rats were prepared for models of right middle cerebral artery ischemia. At 24 hours after model preparation, 20 μL culture solution containing 5×105/L MSCs was injected into the left lateral ventricle of rats in the MSCs group, the same volume of phosphate buffer saline was injected in the model group.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The rats were sacrificed prior to and at days 7, 14, and 21 after transplantation. The expression of growth associated protein-43 at the infarcted areas, the survival and migration of transplanted cells were examined by immunohistochemistry, at the same time, neurological deficit scores were recorded.RESULTS: The transplanted MSCs migrated from the left lateral ventricle to the infracted areas. Seven days after transplantation, the expression of BrdU-positive cells was found, reached a peak at day 14, and gradually decreased, until disappeared at 28 days after transplantation. Results of immunohistochemistry image analysis showed that immunological activity of growth associated protein-43 around the infarcted area of the MSCs group was obviously greater than that of the model group at days 7 and 14 after transplantation (P<0.06). There was no neurological deficit in the sham operated group. Moreover, with time prolonged, the neurological deficit scores gradually decreased in the model and MSCs groups, which were significantly lower in the MSCs group compared to the model group at day 14 after transplantation (P<0.05).CONCLUSION: MSCs transplantation up-regulates the expression of growth associated protein-43 around the infarcted area, which is consistent with the recovery of neurological function.

BACKGROUND: Sub-hypothermia has been widely used to treat cerebral infarction. Whether sub-hypothermia treated on body surface affects blood pressure or not, or the effect is advantageous or disadvantageous should be researched further.OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of sub-hypothermia on blood pressure of rats with experimental cerebral infarction so as to investigate its influence on cerebral protective function.DESIGN: Randomized controlled study.SETTING: Neurological Department of Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University.MATERIALS: The experiment was completed in the Neurological Laboratory of Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University. Totally 120 SD rats were selected and divided randomly into control group and experimental group with 60 in each group.METHODS: Rats in experimental group were maintained at 4 ℃ 3 hours after MCA obstruction, and rectal temperature was maintained at (34±1.0) ℃;rats in control group were maintained at room temperature (20 ℃). All animals were reperfused 2 hours after MCA obstruction. Heart rate,breath, blood oxygen saturation, anus temperature and blood pressure were assayed with monitor. Rats were sacrificed under anesthesia after 24 hours, and cerebral tissue was taken out to measure the total volume of infarct focus.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Changes of heart rate, breath,blood oxygen saturation, · mean arterial blood and blood pressure of rats in the two groups before and after treatment; ② volume of infarct focus of rats in the two groups.RESULTS: ① Values of blood pressure in both groups were increased after obstruction as compared with those before obstruction [(150±7.2),(129±5.7) mm Hg; (149±7.5), (130±2.2) mm Hg, P ＜ 0. 01], and there was not significant difference (P ＞ 0.05). Blood pressure was decreased obviously in sub-hypothermia group at the beginning of sub-hypothermia (P＜ 0.01). ② Volume of cerebral infarction was obviously smaller in subhypothermia group than that in control group [(153.17±26.83) mm3,(251.45±36.70) mm3, P ＜ 0.01].CONCLUSION: Sub-hypothermia can both reduce the volume of cerebral infarction and decrease the blood pressure obviously.
