Objective To study the mechanism of glutamine dipeptide on wound healing after operations on bums. Methods Totally, 30 burned patients were randomly divided into study group and control group (15 cases in each group). All patients received parental nutrition support after operation. Study group patients were supplemented with glutamine dipeptide at a dose of 0. 5 g ·kg-1· d-1. The plasma free hydroxyproline level was measured by a standard amino acid analyzer 1 day before operation and 7 days after operation and the wound healing time was recor- ded. Results The plasma free hydroxyproline levels of both groups were higher than the normal values before opera- tion but without significant difference [control group: (2. 24±0. 84) μg/ml, study group: (2. 32±0.92) jig/ml, normal value: (1.27±0.44) μg/ml]. On the post-operative 7 day, the plasma free hydroxyproline level of study group [ (4. 31±1. 05) ng/ml] was significantly higher than that of control group [ (3. 04±1. 01) μg/ml] (P = 0.002). The wound healing time of study group [ (29. 7±5.3) d] was shorter than that of control group but with- out significant difference [ (33. 3±7.5) d, P = 0. 14 ]. Conclusion The intravenous supplementation of glutamine dipeptide may increase the plasma hydroxyproline level after operation and thus promote wound healing.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of co-observation of the expression of MAGE-A3 gene and MDR1 gene on esti-mating the curative effect in non M3-subtype acute leukemia. Methods Expressions of MAGE-A3 and MDRI were measured in 77 patients with non M3-subtype acute leukemia by RT-PCR method. Clinical observation was done to estimate the relationship between the genes with curative effect in non M3-subtype acute leukemia. Results Expression of MAGE-A3 and MDRI gene were 50. 6% and 23. 3% in non M3-subtype acute leukemia patients. Positive expression of MDRI in MAGE-A3-positive and negative patients were 46. 2% and 13. 2% (P < 0.01). The complete remission rate in MAGE-A3 negative and positive patients were 86. 8% and 64. I% (P <0. 05). Complete remission (CR) rate in MDR1 negative and positive patients was 83.3% and 56. 5% (P <0. 05). Complete remission rate were 87.9% and 55.6% in beth negative and both positive expression of MAGE-A3 and MDR1 (P < 0. 05). Conclusion The patients of positive expression of MAGE-A3 in non M3-subtype AL had higher expression of MDR1. The patients with negative expression of beth MAGE-A3 and MDR1 had higher CR rate than that in both positive patients. These researches indicated that eo-observatian of the expression of MAGE-A3 and MDR1 can predict the curative effect in non M3-subtype AL.

Objective To elucidate the mutations of NPHS1 gene in children with sporadic steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS) in Southern Chinese Han ethnic group.Methods Peripheral blood samples were collected for genetic analysis from 40 patients with sporadic SRNS and 50 healthy volunteers as control.Genomic DNA was isolated from peripheral blood leucocytes.Twenty-nine exons and exon-intron boundaries of the NPHS1 gene were amplified by polymerase chain reaction.Mutational analysis was performed by DNA sequencing directly.Results Seven variants,928G＞A(D310N),2677A＞G (T893A),2869G＞C (V957L),IVS8+30C＞T,IVS21+14G＞A,IVS25-23C＞T and *142T＞C,of NPHS1 gene were found in 6 of 40 children with sporadic SRNS,whereas they were not found in 50 healthy controls.2677A ＞G,IVS8 +30C ＞T,IVS21 +14G＞A,IVS25-23C ＞T and *142T＞C were novel.Moreover,thirteen already reported NPHS1 polymorphisms,294C＞T,349G＞A,IVS3+15C＞T,IVS3+61A＞G,803G＞A,IVS8+68A＞G,1339G ＞A,1802G ＞C,2223C ＞T,2289C ＞T,IVS24 +36C ＞T,3315G＞A and IVS27 +45C ＞T,were detected in some patients and controls. Conclusions NPHS1 mutations in 6 of 40 children with sporadic SRNS in Southern Chinese Han ethnic group (15％) are detected.NPHS1 mutations are existed in Southern Chinese children,so it is necessary to perform the mutation analysis of NPHS1 gene in those children patients.

Objective: To explore the effect of axial flap of adjacent artery perforator with vascular pedicle in repairing scar deformity of face and neck in patients. Methods: From January 2010 to June 2018, 38 patients with cicatricial deformity of face and neck after deep burn were admitted to author′s unit, including 22 males and 16 females, aged 5-56 years. The time of admission was 7 months to 19 years after burn injury. The size of wounds ranged from 7.0 cm×4.0 cm to 20.0 cm×10.0 cm after scar tissue was released. Nineteen patients were treated by upper thoracic internal artery perforator flap with size ranged from 7.0 cm×5.0 cm to 18.0 cm×8.5 cm. Among them, 16 cases were preexpanded with expanders at thorax whose rated capacity ranged from 300 to 500 mL and times of water injection of 1.8 to 3.1, and 3 cases were directly used. Twelve patients were treated by transverse carotid artery perforator flap with size ranging from 7.0 cm×4.5 cm to 11.0 cm×8.5 cm, of which 8 patients were preexpanded and 4 cases were directly used. The rated capacity of expander placed at the supraclavicular region ranged from 200 to 350 mL with times of water injection from 1.5 to 2.0. Seven patients were treated by preexpanded superficial temporal frontal branch artery perforator flap with size of 5.5 cm×3.8 cm to 8.0 cm×5.0 cm. The rated capacity of expanders placed at forehead was 150 to 300 mL with times of water injection of 1.5 to 2.0. Donor sites were directly sutured or reversely repaired by pedicled skin tube plasty. After operation, operation times and treatment time were recorded. The survival condition and complications of flaps and follow-up were observed. Results: The patients each received 1 to 4 operation (s) with treatment time of 5 to 11 months. All flaps survived after operation. Among them, three flaps with perforating branches of internal thoracic artery had slight blood circulation disturbance at the distal end and were healed after conservative dressing change, etc. Pigment changes were observed at the distal end of thoracic internal artery perforator flaps in two patients in the later stage and was resected and repaired in the second stage. The patients were followed up for 5 to 18 months. The appearance and function of operation area were good with high satisfaction of patient. Conclusions The axial flap of adjacent artery perforator with vascular pedicle for repairing scar deformity of face and neck used directly or preexpanded can solve the problem of lack of normal skin around scar deformity without vascular anastomosis during the operation and with better appearance and function after operation. The donor site often can be directly sutured, but many operations often need to be completed for finishing whole treatment.

ObjectiveTo investigate the changes of non-linear dynamics characteristic of EEG in patient with acute cerebral stroke under eyes closed state. MethodsEEG were recorded in 31 patients with acute cerebral infarction and 22 healthy volunteers under eyes closed state. Correlation dimension (D2) and Approximate Entropy (ApEn) were calculated for all subjects. ResultsD2 and ApEn of uninjured forehead cortex (FP1,FP2)reduced significantly in the group of cerebral infarction as compared with the group of normal control at eyes closed state. ConclusionDynamic analysis based on D2 and ApEn topographic maps might be helpful in understand the changes of mental functions after stroke, that can be used in the study of mental function.

Objective To review the current research and application of root cause analysis (RCA) method in China's hospital management.Methods A retrospective analysis in six aspects was made by means of formulating a retrieval strategy and inclusion criteria, retrieval of databases, and literature review.Results The number of Chinese RCA researches was increasing year by year, mostly from researcher of the eastern coastal areas.These studies focused on the effects of RCA application outcomes and nursing safety.Tools in use were mainly fishbone diagram, brainstorming and 3-why method.72.24% of the root causes as found in literature were system factors, and 27.76% were human factors.Most of the researches made positive comments on RCA.Conclusions RCA is being warmly embraced by China's hospital management as it can positively change the accountability culture towards adverse events.Yet RCA has not been satisfactorily applied, and its future research and application in China's hospital management need more in-depth study and critical analysis.

Objective: To explore the experience of transportation of mass severe burn patients for long distance by air ambulance with fixed wing. Methods: The organization and implementation process of transportation of 5 patients in the devastating forest fire of Greater Khingan on 2nd, May 2017, for long distance by air ambulance with fixed wing were reviewed and analyzed. All the patients were severely burned and complicated with inhalation injury. Four hours after accident, the relevant authority dispatched national medical team with 2 specialists of burn, 1 specialist of intensive care medicine, 1 head nurse of burn intensive care unit (ICU) to treat and cure the patients before transportation. Three patients had tracheotomy and four patients had escharotomy. Patients and their relatives, expert group of transportation, and aircrew members were arranged according to the scheme before transportation. Patients were monitored and treated with the equipments of air ambulance during the transportation. Patients were transferred to the burn ICU in our hospital from the airport through the green channel. Results: All the five patients were transported to the destination safely for long distance of 1 700 kilometres and air flight 3.5 hours one way by air ambulance with fixed wing in 4 batches at 26 to 44 hours post burn, and transported from tarmac to burn ICU of our hospital. All the patients were in stable condition during the transportation and had successful subsequent rescue. All the patients were discharged in three months. Conclusions It is feasible to transfer mass severe burn patients for long distance by air ambulance with fixed wing, and it is safer and more effective to transfer according to the standardization process, and the opportunity of transportation of severe burn patients can be moved up to shock stage.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and risk factors of diabetic retinopathy (DR) in a Beijing population during routine medical examinations. Methods This was a cross-sectional study during a routine health examination at the Tongren Hospital of Beijing,from March 2014 to February 2015. Fundus photography was conducted by experienced ophthalmologists.Medical history,height,weight,waist and hip circumference,and blood pressure were recorded.Routine laboratory examinations were performed. Logistic regression models were used to estimate the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of diabetic retinopathy for each risk factor,adjusted for age and gender. Results The prevalence of DR was 7.0% among diabetic individuals.The multivariate analysis showed that disease durations[OR(95% CI),2.1 (1.564-2.752),P<0.001],fasting plasma glucose[1.2(1.093-1.273),P<0.001],body mass index[1.8(1.010-3.100),P=0.046],and triglyceride[0.794(0.638-0.987),P=0.038]were independently associated with DR. The prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) and DR significantly increased in populations aged>30 years. Conclusion Fundus photography (nonmydriatic) should be recommended as a routine screening method for people 30 years and elder to effectively prevent occurrence of visual impairment and blindness.
