OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effectiveness of delayed replantation of degloving skin preserved at 4℃ in treatment of limb degloving injuries. METHODS: Between October 2020 and October 2023, 12 patients with limb degloving injuries were admitted. All patients had severe associated injuries or poor wound conditions that prevented primary replantation. There were 7 males and 5 females; age ranged from 29 to 46 years, with an average of 39.2 years. The causes of injury included machine entanglement in 6 cases, traffic accidents in 5 cases, and sharp instrument cuts in 1 case. Time from injury to hospital admission was 0.5-3.0 hours, with an average of 1.3 hours. Injury sites included upper limbs in 7 cases and lower limbs in 5 cases. The range of degloving skin was from 5 cm×4 cm to 15 cm×8 cm, and all degloving skins were intact. The degloving skin was preserved at 4℃. After the patient's vital signs became stable and the wound conditions improved, it was trimmed into medium-thickness skin grafts for replantation. The degloving skin was preserved for 3 to 7 days. At 4 weeks after replantation, the viability of the degloving skin grafts was assessed, including color, elasticity, and sensation of pain. The Vancouver Scar Scale (VSS) was used to assess the scars of the skin grafts during follow-up. RESULTS: At 4 weeks after replantation, 8 cases of skin grafts completely survived and the color was similar with normal skin, with a survival rate of 66.67%. The elasticity of skin grafts (R0 value) ranged from 0.09 to 0.85, with an average of 0.55; moderate pain was reported in 4 cases, mild pain in 3 cases, and no pain in 5 cases. All patients were followed up 12 months. Over time, the VSS scores of all 12 patients gradually decreased, with a range of 4-11 at 12 months (mean, 6.8). CONCLUSION For limb degloving injuries that cannot be replanted immediately and do not have the conditions for deep low-temperature freezing preservation, the method of preserving the degloving skin at 4℃ for delayed replantation can be chosen.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy and pharmacoeconomic evaluation of bevacizumab or cetuximab combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of advanced colorectal cancer.Methods:The clinical data of 68 patients with advanced colorectal cancer from January 2018 to December 2020 in Baotou Tumor Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 40 patients with treated with bevacizumab combined with chemotherapy (bevacizumab group), 28 patients were treated with cetuximab combined with chemotherapy (cetuximab group), and the chemotherapy of two group was FOLFOX/FOLFIRI program. The short-term clinical efficacy, adverse reactions and pharmacoeconomic evaluation result were compared between two groups.Results:There were no statistical differences in effective rate and disease control rate between bevacizumab group and cetuximab group: 30.00% (12/40) vs. 28.57% (8/28) and 67.5% (27/40) vs. 60.71% (17/28), P>0.05. The incidence of Ⅲ to Ⅳ grade erythra in bevacizumab group was significantly lower than that in cetuximab group: 2.50% (1/40) vs. 71.43% (20/28), and there was statistical difference ( P<0.01); there were no statistical differences in the incidences of Ⅲ to Ⅳ grade bone marrow suppression, nausea vomiting, hepatic functional lesion and diarrhea between two groups ( P>0.05). The pharmacoeconomic evaluation result showed that the cost of monoclonal antibody and total cost in bevacizumab group were significantly lower than those in cetuximab group: (9 009 ± 1 500) yuan vs. (27 840 ± 2 202) yuan and (11 242 ± 1 731) yuan vs. (29 867 ± 3 002) yuan, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01); the cost-effectiveness ratio in bevacizumab group was 37 473.3, and it in cetuximab group was 104 430.1, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of two programs was 11 640.6. Conclusions:In the treatment of advanced colorectal cancer, the efficacy of bevacizumab combined with chemotherapy is similar to that of cetuximab combined with chemotherapy, but bevacizumab combined with chemotherapy has lower costs and fewer adverse reactions, so bevacizumab is more economical and applicable.

This paper summarized professor ZHANG Lei′s experience in treating scleroderma from “extraordinary pathogens entering collaterals”. The basic pathogenesis of scleroderma is “extraordinary pathogens entering the collaterals”， and extraordinary pathogens can be divided into external and internal categories. External extraordinary pathogens are mostly exogenous wind， cold and damp pathogens， and the pathogenesis is wind， cold and damp invading skin stria and retaining collaterals. Most of the endogenous extraordinary pathogens are turbid phlegm and blood stasis， and the pathogenesis is endogenous phlegm and stasis leaving the channels and overflowing the collaterals， and blocking the collaterals. Blocked by extraordinary pathogens for a long time， the long illness will lead to deficiency and develop into a syndrome of collaterals excess and channels deficiency. Therefore， professor ZHANG creats Tengluo Beverage （藤络饮） as the basic formula to unblock collaterals and dispel pathogens， and recommends to add or subtract it according to the different syndrome and pathogenic characteristics of the edema stage， sclerosis stage， and atrophy stage. In the edema stage， it is advised to expel wind， remove dampness and unblock the collaterals， while in the sclerosis stage， the method of dissolving phlegm， expelling stasis and unblocking collaterals should be used； in the atrophic stage， it is suggested to differentiate the deficiency of qi， blood， yin and yang， and eliminate extraordinary pathogens on the basis of reinforcing healthy qi .

Objective:To investigate the effect of tourniquet-reperfusion augmented infrared thermography(TRAIRT) on locating the dominant perforator to assist design of free medial sural artery perforator flap.Methods:The data of patients with skin soft tissue defect of upper limb repaired by free medial sural artery perforator flap in Department of Hand Surgery, Ningbo Sixth Hospital from May 2019 to January 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Color Doppler ultrasonography (CDU) and TRAIRT were used to locate the dominant perforator auxiliary flap design before surgery and after anesthesia. In the TRAIRT video, the hot spot with "early emergence, high brightness and fast expansion" was selected as the advantageous perforator. During the operation, the flap was elevated and transferred to the affected area to cover the defect wound according to the designed mark points, and fixed by the absorbable sutures with an interrupted suturing method, then end-to-end vascular anastomosis was performed successively. The donor area was sutured directly or sutured with full thickness skin grafts depending on the area of the wound. The donor and recipient areas of the flap were observed and the patients’ satisfaction was recorded. The gold standard was the actual location of the perforating vessel found during the operation. Compared with the gold standard, the location of the perforating vessel explored by TRAIRT and CDU was considered to be accurate (positive) if the distance was less than 10 mm. The sensitivity (accurate number of perforators/actual number of perforators during operation ×100%) and positive predictive value (accurate number of perforators/total number of perforators×100%) of the two methods were calculated, expressed as %, and the sensitivity of the two methods was compared by paired χ2 test. Kappa coefficient was used to analyze the consistency of the two methods to detect perforating vessels. The perforator detection time of TRAIRT and CDU were recorded, expressed as Mean±SD, and statistically analyzed by paired sample t-test. Results:A total of 23 patients were included, consisting of 14 males and 9 females, agd 21-70 years old, average age of 43 years old. The wounds were on forearm in 5 cases, wrist in 2 cases, and hand in 16 cases. The wound area was 4.5 cm × 5.5 cm-6.5 cm × 12.0 cm. Intraoperative flap incision area was 5.0 cm × 6.0cm-7.0 cm × 13.0 cm. After operation, 22 cases of flaps survived, 1 case had superficial necrosis at the distal end, which healed after repeated dressing change. The donor area of flaps healed well, with primary suture in 20 cases and full thickness skin grafting in 3 cases. Postoperative follow-up was 5-16 months (mean 8.4 months). The flaps had no bulge, swelling and abrasion. The texture and color were similar to the medial calf skin, and the scars in the donor and recipient areas were not obvious. The patients were satisfied with the recovery. Among the 23 patients, 49 perforators were found by TRAIRT, 50 perforators were found by CDU, and 53 perforators were found intraoperatively. The sensitivity of TRAIRT and CDU was 88.7% (47/53) and 90.6% (48/53), with no significant differences ( P>0.05), and the positive prediction value was 95.9% (47/49) and 96.0% (48/50) respectively. The Kappa coefficient was 0.89, indicating a good consistency between the two methods. The time required for TRAIRT to detect perforators was significantly shorter than that of CDU, with statistical significance [(6.52±2.02) min vs. (17.87±2.49) min, P<0.01]. Conclusion:TRAIRT has a good consistency with CDU in detection of medial sural artery perforator. The application of TRAIRT in designing medial sural artery perforator flap for wound repair is good, and it has advantages of short time taking, simple operation, economy and non-invasiveness.
