BACKGROUND: Existing research shows that in situ regeneration of skin deep within the second degree bum wound and donor site wound healed without physical scarring, can promote three-degree burn wounds liquefied necrotic tissue removement, the growth of transplanted skin, reduce scar; scar-shift using the in situ regeneration is expected to reach significantly reduce scar symptoms, and to reduce the effect of scar, which have not be reported.OBJECTIVE: To observe effects of skin regeneration in situ method to remove scar in the treatment of hypertrophic scar. METHODS: A total of 32 patients with many hyperplastic scars, including 25 males and 7 females, aged 16-52 years, disease course of 1-11 years. Two similar scar regions were selected from each patient for self control. In the experimental group, scar removal, scar skin replantation after the application of in situ regeneration of the skin treatment using burn cream coated yarn. In the control group, scar removal, scar skin replantation after the application of traditional Vaseline covered by treatment. Curative effects were observed and compared. Scar hyperplasia was assessed using Vancouver Scar Assessment Scale assessment. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Replanted scar skin explants were survived in both groups. In the experimental group, healing speed and quality of wound surface were better than the control group (P< 0.05). After 6 months, the Vancouver Scar Assessment Scale assessment in the experimental group was better than control group (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). Scar caused by pain, itching and other symptoms disappeared, skin formation and color back to pre-implantation were significantly improved compared with the surrounding skin almost. Results indicated that with regarding to the lack of autologous skin source, large area of scar in patients with hypertrophic scars or unwilling to add a new donor site wounds in patients, in situ replantation method is an ideal approach.

Objective To summarize the progress of research on the influence of nutrition support on quality adjusted life year (QALY) in elderly patients with nutritional risk, and to evaluate the feasibility of QALY as an outcome indicator.Methods Literature in Chinese, English and Japanese relating to the feasibility of QALY and cost-utility in evaluating the influence of nutrition support on the outcomes of patients with nutritional risk published from 1980 to 2013 were searched in Wanfang, China National Knowledge Infrastructure,PubMed, Nature databases.The methodological quality of randomized controlled trials was assessed using Jadad scale combined with Schulz allocation concealment, and the quality of cohort studies with Newcastle-Ottawa scale.Results Totally 10 articles were fotnd, in which 8 were selected, including 6 randomized controlled trial and 2 cohort studies, covering 1 130 patients;the other 2 were excluded for not conforming to inclusion criteria.Four of the 6 randomized controlled trial indicate that QALY is higher and all-cost is lower in the treatment group compared with the control group (or cost-utility is higher in the treatment group).The 2 cohort studies indicate that total parenteral nutrition support at home could improve the QALY of malnourished patients and could save cost compared with nutrition support at hospital when necessary.Conclusions Nutrition support for patients with nutritional risk can improve prognosis, reduce cost, and increase QALY.More large-scale, high-quality randomized controlled trials are needed to evaluate the effect of nutrition support on the QALY of elderly patients with nutritional risk.

Objective To systematic evaluation the antiepileptic drug valproic acid and topiramate effects on body weight and plasma leptin levels.Methods By searching the Cochrane Library,PubMed,EMBASE,CNKI,VIP Chinese Scientific Journals Database and Articles Database (from building a database to August 1,2014),qualified RCT was chosen from those articles according to inclusion and exclusion criterias and evaluated their quality.Then the meta-analysis was performed by Rev Man 5.3.Results (1) A total of 70 documents retrieved for the evaluation,12 of the literatures could be incorporated into the Meta-analysis,including a total of 634 participants,9 literatures using valproate to treat epilepsy,4 literatures used topiramate.(2)Meta-analysis:compared with other drugs,valproic acid treatment increased body mass index and leptin level in patients with epilepsy,BMI combined MD=0.88(95％ CI:0.45-1.31),leptin level in the combined MD=0.58(95％ CI:0.07-1.09);compared with other drugs,topiramate affect body mass index and leptin level in patients with epilepsy had no statical difference,BMI combined MD=-0.02 (95％ CI:-0.62-0.58),leptin levels in the combined MD =-0.05(95％ CI:-0.31-0.20).Conclusion Antiepileptic drug valproic acid may increase patients' BMI and serum leptin levels,yet topiramate in do not have influence in patients BMI and serum leptin levels;more basic and clinical researches are needed to explore serum leptin levels and the exact therapy mechanisms of antiepileptic drugs for clinicians to select antiepileptic drugs.

Objective To explore neurobehavioral changes in rats with recurrent seizures and the prevention effect of melatonin.Methods 6-day-old (P6) SD rats were randomly divided into four groups of 24 (n =6):the control group (CONT),melatonin per se group (MEL),recurrent neonatal seizure group (RS) and melatonin administration prior to RS group (RS + MEL).Rats in RS group were subjected to 5 seizures with flurothyl during the first 14 days of life.In RS + MEL group,melatonin was injected at 8:00 before seizures were induced.Neurobehavioral tests including Plane righting experiment,Cliff avoidance test,the grip-strength test and negative geotaxis test were implemented on P24,while open field test on P35.Results (1) Plane righting experiment:the time of plane righting in RS group ((0.33 ± 0.51)s) was significantly shorter than that in the CONT group ((1.17 ± 0.40) s) and RS + MEL group ((0.50 ± 0.54) s) (P ＜ 0.05).(2) Cliff avoidance test:the time of cliff avoidance in RS group ((16.00 ± 6.32) s) was significantly longer than that in CONT group ((4.00 ± 2.60) s)(P ＜ 0.01),while the time of cliff avoidance in RS + MEL group ((7.67 ± 3.26) s) was shorter than that in the RS group (P ＜ 0.05).(3) The grip-strength test:compared with CONT group ((49.50 ± 28.96) s),the time needed to hold on wire in RS group((11.67 ± 7.58)s)was significantly shorter (P ＜ 0.05) and longer in RS+ MEL group ((24.83 ± 6.61) s) (P ＜ 0.05).(4) Negative geotaxis test:the time for rats to turn 180° upward in RS group((7.67 ± 1.36) s) was longer than that in the CONT group ((4.50 ± 2.66) s) and RS + MEL group ((6.17 ± 0.75) s) (P ＜ 0.05).(5) Open field test:the time for rats to begin to run in the RS group ((8.17 ± 3.86) s) was longer than that in the CONT group ((3.00 ± 1.41) s) (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The neurobehaviors are damaged following flurothyl-induced recurrent neonatal seizures,and melatonin can reduce the neurobehavioral injury.

Objective To investigate dynamic expressions of cortex clusterin (CLU) and intervention effect of ketogenic diet (KD) on neonatal rats with recurrent seizures.Methods Thirty-six-8-day postnatal SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups:normal control group (NS + ND group,n =12),and the recurrent-seizure and normal diet group (RS + ND group,n =12),and the recurrent-seizure and KD group (RS + KD group,n =12).From 9 d,rats in RS + ND group and RS + KD group were subjected to recurrent seizures induced by volatile flurothyl 30 min each day for consecutive 8 days.Rats in NS + ND group were placed into the container for an equal amount of time to their counterpart without exposure to flurothyl.Scores on neurological behaviors at 35 days postnatally were examined.CLU protein levels in cerebral cortex were determined by Western blot at 58 days postnatally.Results Neurodevelopmental indicators analysis:in the plane righting experiment,there were significant differences between NS + ND group [(1.03 ± 0.54) s],R S + KD group [(0.89 ± 0.16) s] and RS + ND group [(0.64 ± 0.30) s] about the time of plane righting (all P ＜ 0.05) ; in the negative geotaxis reaction experiment,the rats of NS + ND group [(1.92 ± 0.90) s],and RS + KD group [(5.17 ± 0.72) s] about the time of negative geotaxis reaction were significantly different compared with RS + ND gouup [(7.33 ± 0.65) s] (all P ＜ 0.01).In the cliff avoidance test,there were significant differences between NS + ND group,R S + KD group [(4.33 ± 2.54) s,(8.75 ± 2.26) s] and R S + ND group [(16.58 ± 4.25) s] about the time of cliff avoidance (all P ＜ 0.01).Western blot showed that the expression of CLU in cerebral cortex of the RS + ND group [(2.24 ± 0.53) s] was obviously increased compared with NS + ND group [(1.44 ± 0.11) s] (P ＜0.01),and there also had significant difference between RS + KD group [(1.56 ±0.24) s] and RS + ND group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions It shows that the up-regulated expression of CLU in cerebral cortex may be associated with recurrent neonatal seizure-induced brain damage,while KD may protect them from recurrent neonatal seizure-induced brain damage by down-regulating expression of CLU.

Objective To explore the intervention effect of ketogenic diet (KD) on neurobehavioral damages after flurothyl-induced neonatal recurrent seizures in rats and on the expression of ZIP7.Methods Postnatal day 8 SD rats (n=24) were divided into four groups randomly:normal group (NS+ND group),non-seizure and ketogenic diet group (NS+KD group),seizure and normal diet group (RS+ND group),seizure and ketogenic diet group (RS+KD group),n=6 in eacb group.At postnatal day 31,the grip-strength test and open field test were monitored.At postnatal day 32,rats were sacrificed and the expression of ZIP7 protein level in cerebral cortex was detected with Western blot.Results (1) The grip-strength test:compared with NS+ND group ((32.67±2.42) s),the time needed to hold on glass bar in RS+ND group ((19.17±2.48) s) was shorter significantly (P＜0.05).Compared with RS+ND group,the time needed to hold on glass bar in RS+KD group ((26.25±2.87) s) was significantly longer (P＜0.05).(2) Open field test:compared with NS+ ND group ((2.00± 0.63) times),the times of grooming in RS+ND group ((4.00±0.63) times) were more (P＜0.05).Compared with RS+ND group,the times of grooming in the RS+KD group ((2.17±0.75) times) were fewer (P＜0.05).(3)Western blot:compared with NS +ND group,the level of ZIP7 of the RS+ND group in cerebral cortex were lower (P＜0.05).Compared with RS+ND group,the level of ZIP7 of the RS+KD group in cerebral cortex were higher (P＜0.05).Conclusion Neonatal recurrent seizures may damage neurobehavior,and the neuroprotective effects of ketogenic diet may be associated with the increasing of ZIP7 in cerebral cortex.

Objective To compare the effect of routine ketogenic diet and every other day ketogenic diet on neurobehavioral damage induced by recurrent seizures in neonatal rats.Methods 48 postnatal day 8 (P8) SD rats were randomly divided into four groups with 12 in each group:the control group (CONT),the recurrent seizure group(RS+ND),recurrent seizure + routine ketogenic diet group(RS+KD) and recurrent seizure+ every other day ketogenic diet group(RS+KOD).The recurrent seizures model was induced by flurothyl at p9 and last for 8 days.After a day of fasting the postnatal 28 day rats were placed on either ordinary or ketogenic diet according to packet design.Plane righting experiment,cliff avoidance test and negative geotaxis test were used to assess the neurobehavioral performance at p35.Results (1) Plane righting experiment:the plane fighting time of RS+ ND group ((0.17±0.39) s) was significantly shorter than that of NS+ND group ((0.67 ±0.49) s) (P＜0.05) ; and the plane righting time of RS+KD group((0.58±0.52) s) was significantly longer than that of RS+ND group ((0.17±0.39) s) (P＜0.05).There was no statistical significance between RS+KOD group((0.17±0.39) s) and RS+ND group ((0.17±0.39) s) (P＞0.05).(2) Cliff avoidance test:the cliff avoidance time of RS+ND group ((12.58±4.83) s)was significantly longer than that of NS+ND group ((1.92±0.90) s),RS+KD group((3.33± 1.50)s) and RS+ KOD group (P＜0.05) ;and the cliff avoidance time of RS+KOD group((5.58± 1.93)s) was significant longer than that of RS+KD group ((3.33± 1.50) s) (P＜0.05).(3) Negative geotaxis test:the negative geotaxis time of RS+NDgroup((3.17±1.70)s) was significantly longer than that of NS+ND group((1.42±0.67) s) and RS+KD group ((1.42±0.52)s) (P＜0.05).There was no statistical significance between RS+KOD group and RS+ND group(P＞0.05).Conclusion The ketogenic diet can improve neurobehavioral damage caused by flurothyl-induced recurrent seizures in neonatal rats.The every other day KD group shows a weak intervention effect comparing with the routine KD group.

Objective To investigate the intervention effect of ketogenic diet (KD) on neurobehavioral demages after flurothyl-induced recurrent neonatal seizures in rats and on the expression of ApoE.Methods Postnatal day 8 (P8) SD rats (quantity:48) were randomly divided into two groups:the non-seizure group (NS group,n =24) and the recurrent-seizure group (RS group,n =24).From P9,rats in RS group were subjected to recurrent seizures induced by volatile flurothyl 30 min each day for consecutive 8 days.While rats in NS group were placed into the container for an equal amount of time to their counterpart without exposuring to flurothyl.At P28,each group was divided into two groups again:non-seizure and normal diet group(NS + ND group,n =12),non-seizure and ketogenic diet group(NS + KD group,n =12),recurrent-seizure and normal diet group (RS + ND group,n =12),recurrent-seizure and ketogenic diet group(RS + KD group,n =12).At P42,neurodevelopmental indicators were monitored.ApoE protein levels in cerebral cortex were determined by western blot at P58.Results Neurodevelopmental indicators were analyzed at P42:in the plane righting experiment,the rats of group NS + ND (1.0 ±0.14) about the time of plane righting was significant different comparing with group RS + ND ((0.75 ±0.32) s) (P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference between group RS + KD and group RS + ND about the time of plane righting(P＞ 0.05).In the negative geotaxis reaction experiment,the rats of groups NS + KD and RS + ND((3.17 ± 0.58)s,(6.75 ± 0.75)s) about the time of negative geotaxis reaction were significant different comparing with group NS + ND ((1.58 ±0.52)s) (P＜0.05).Compared with group RS + ND,the group RS + KD in the time of negative geotaxis reaction was obviously shortened (P ＜ 0.05).In the cliff avoidance test,there were significant differences between group NS + ND、RS + KD ((5.75 ± 2.90) s,(9.50 ± 4.36) s) and group RS + ND ((14.00 ± 4.79) s) about the time of cliff avoidance (P ＜ 0.05).In western blot,the expression of ApoE in cerebral cortex in the RS + ND group (1.26 ± 0.30) was obviously increased compared with group NS + ND (0.78 ±0.12) (P＜0.05),and there had also significant difference between group RS + KD (0.89 ±0.10) and group RS + ND (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The neuroprotective effects of ketogenic diet on recurrent neonatal seizure-induced neurobehavioral demages may be associated with the reduction of ApoE in cerebral cortex.
