OBJECTIVETo observe the distribution of epidermal stem cell (ESC) after soft tissue expansion, and to explore dynamic change in ESC under mechanical stress and kinetic mechanism of skin expansion.
METHODSSkin samples were collected from patients after expansion of the scalp. They were divided into three groups: A group (scalp harvested 3 cm away from the center of dilator), B group (scalp tissues at the edge of dilator), and control group (scalp without dilatation). The tissue structures were observed with optical microscope with HE staining. The distribution and differentiation characteristics of cell keratin 19 (CK19) positive cells were observed with inverted phase contrast microscope after immunohistochemistry staining.
RESULTSHE staining showed that the epidermis was thickened and distributed densely with uneven, rugged and increased layers in A, B groups. With immunohistochemistry staining, CK19 positive cells appeared in multilayers in basal membrane, a few of them were in cluster or dispersed , with" hollowing" structure formation. These phenomena were not seen in control group.
CONCLUSIONESC can proliferate with abnormal distribution and "hollowing" structure formation after mechanical dilatation, which may be related to dynamic changes in basal layer cells.

OBJECTIVETo determine the applicability of multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) for rapid detection of aneuploidies in prenatal diagnosis.
METHODSA total of 561 prenatal samples were analyzed in parallel by MLPA and traditional karyotyping. Another 20 clinical samples with known common chromosome abnormalities were also determined by MLPA to evaluate the accuracy and reliability of MLPA. The results obtained from MLPA were compared with that from traditional karyotyping.
RESULTSThe results were available within 48 h. A total of 38 aneuploidies were identified by MLPA, including 20 cases of trisomy 21, 10 cases of trisomy 18, 1 case of trisomy 13, 4 cases of Turner syndrome, 1 case of Klinefelter syndrome, 1 case of 47, XYY trisomy and 1 case of 48,XYY, +18. MLPA was able to detect all the expected aneuploidies with 100% accuracy. The results obtained from MLPA agreed with traditional karyotyping. Among 561 prenatal samples, the results of 550 samples were concordant with those of karyotyping, and the coincidence rate of MLPA was 98.04%.
CONCLUSIONMLPA is a rapid, simple and reliable method for detection of the most common chromosome aneuploidies in prenatal diagnosis. MLPA is a valuable tool in prenatal clinical practice.

OBJECTIVETo seek ideal strategies in saving a patient with very extensive deep burns, and measures for functional reconstruction after convalescence.
METHODSA patient with 99. 5% TBSA flame burn injury (III degrees 80%, deep second degree 14.5% and superficial II degrees 5%), complicated with hypernatremia and hyperchloraemia was admitted 76 hours after the injury. Early escharectomy and alloskin grafting were performed. Because of the lack of autoskin donor site, the skin grafting of autologous skin was only undertaken whenever there was an available source, and the remaining wounds were temporarily covered with allografts. Finally the patient survived. After healing of all the wounds, contractures were corrected with skin from scars, flaps of scarred skin or composite skin, and more than 30 cicatricial contracture deformities were corrected after convalescence.
RESULTSAfter initial treatments and extensive early escharectomy, the patient's condition became stable gradually, without adverse complications. After 7 operations, the wounds finally healed completely after 106 days. The function of all joints were restored well and external appearance improved after 15 plastic and reconstructive operations during convalescence period. The patient was fully rehabilitated and resumed his original work 26 months after the injury.
CONCLUSIONFor those patients with massive burns and short of donor site, alloskin grafting after early escharectomy, and persistent repeated microskin grafting whenever any small amounts of own skin is available, is essential to stabilize the patients' condition, and reduce complications. Covering the wounds as the result of shedding off of eschar with alloskin can protect the undamaged cells in skin appendages to promote re-epithelization and wound healing. It is feasible to harvest skin grafts from scars, and use scar skin flaps and composite skin to repair contractures after convalescence with good outcome in function and external appearance.

Objective To explore the management strategy and indications for revisionary internal fixation after percutaneous kyphoplasty/percutaneous vertebroplasty (PKP/PVP) in cancellous vertebral fractures.Methods A retrospective analysis was made of the 676 cases of single-segment PKP/PVP at Department of Orthopaedics,The Affiliated Hospital to Qingdao University from January 2008 to January 2019.They were subjected to 4 different managements after their primary PKP/PVP:rehabilitation without any treatment in 637 cases,conservative treatment in 19 cases (including 3 ones who refused any revision),KP/VP revision in 12 cases and internal fixation revision in 8 cases.The rate of volume reduction after bone cement dispersion (Vx) was calculated using software Mimics 17.0 on the basis of primary CT data of all the patients.The correlation regression analysis was made between the revision rate and the approximate quantization value of Vx.The Glasgow Coma Score (GCS) of conscious state was used to evaluate the 39 patients after failure of their primary surgery before the surgical strategy for revision was worked out.The cobb angle,pelvic incidence angle (PI),pelvic inclination angle (PT),sacral inclination angle (SS),sagittal deviation (SVA),pain visual analogue scale (VAS) were measured and recorded before operation and at the last follow-up for the KP/VP revision group and internal fixation revision group,indicated as △cobb,△PI,△PT,△SS,△SVA and △VAS,respectively.The indexes were compared between the 2 groups.Results The incidence of osteoporotic vertebral fractures treated with internal fixation revision was 1.18% (8/676).The correlation between Vx and revision rate was y =0.53 + 0.04x (P < 0.05).The regression analysis showed that Vx was positively correlated with the revision rate (r2 =0.860,P =0.001) and the fitting curve was correlated (r2 =0.916,P =0.001).The GSC scores revealed 31 normal,6 mild disturbance and 2 moderate disturbance cases.There were no significant differences in gender,age or VAS scores between the KP/VP revision group and the internal fixation revision group (P > 0.05).There was a significant difference in △cobb between the 2 revision groups (6.3° ± 7.5° versus 19.2° ± 14.8°) (P <0.05),but there were no significant differences between the 2 groups in △PI (4.1°±5.2° versus 3.3°±6.7°),△PT (0.7°±4.6° versus 0.4° ± 3.2°),△SS (3.7° ± 6.2° versus 3.1° ± 5.3°) or △SVA (-3.2 ± 11.9 mm versus-7.9 ± 9.5 mm) (P > 0.05).Conclusions The outcomes of primary PKP/PVP have a great impact on the decision-making of internal fixation revision.The mode and extent of diffusion after initial vertebral cement perfusion are particularly related to the revision rate.The revision plan should depend on clinical symptoms.The internal fixation revision should be individualized to ensure the quality of life of the patients in line with the principles of "resolving symptoms" and "moderate correction".
