Objective To explore the brain CT index,neurological scores and efficacy of ganglion glycosides in treating neonatal hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE).Methods Seventy-two patients with HIE hospitalized in our hospital were randomly selected as the research objects during November 2012 to November 2014.The patients were divided into observation group(36 cases) and control group(36 cases) according to the time of admission.The patients in control group were treated with routine treatment.The observation group was treated with ganglion glycosides on the basis of the conventional treatment.After two weeks treatment,the brain CT index,neurological scores and efficacy were observed.Results After treatnent,with CT examination the patients in the observation group showed mild HIE in 33 cases,which was significantly more than the control group,and severe HIE in 3 cases,which was significantly less than the control group.There were significant differences between the two groups (x2 =7.005 4,11.840 2,all P ＜ 0.05).The recovery time of consciousness,reflex recovery time,recovery time of muscle tension of the observation group were (5.08 ± 1.02) d,(6.74 ± 1.53) d,(7.31 ± 1.69) d,which were shorter than the control group,and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant (t =13.002 7,5.354 6,6.224 0,all P ＜ 0.05).After treatment,there were no deaths in the two groups,the observation group of 1 patient with ataxia,2 cases of mental retardation,epilepsy in 1 case and 0 case of cerebral palsy,which were less than the control group,there were significant differences between the two groups (x2 =7.407 4,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion For the newborn with HIE after treating with ganglion glycosides,the CT index and neurological score showed obvious improvement,and the treatment effect is good,thus it is worth popularizing.

Objective To investigate the effects of ischemic postconditioning (IPOC) on myocardial perfusion and prognosis in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) who were treated with emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods A total of 203 patients with STEMI who received emergency PCI were randomly divided into IPOC group (n=103) and control group (n=100). For the patients of IPOC group the angioplasty balloon was re-inflated within one minute after the beginning of reperfusion, the procedure was repeated three times, each time the inflation of balloon lasted for 1 minute using low-pressure (4-6 atm), and the interval between the inflation procedures was one minute. For the patients of the control group , no additional intervention was employed during the first 6 minutes of reperfusion. Cardiac troponin I(cTnI) peaks, creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) peaks, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), wall motion score index (WMSI), corrected thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) frame count (CTFC), and major adverse cardiac events (MACE) occurred during hospitalization time in both groups were recorded and the results were compared between the two groups. Results No significant differences in age, sex, risk factors, infarction-related artery, ischemia time, etc. existed between the two groups (P>0.05). The CTFC values of IPOC group were significantly faster than those of the control group, that was (25.3±7.9) vs.(29.4±8.4),(P<0.05). The CK-MB peak and cTnI peak values of IPOC group were remarkably lower than those of the control group, those were (157.3 ±83.6) U/L vs. (201.5 ±77.3) U/L and (2.5 ±1.3) ng/mL vs. (3.1 ±1.0) ng/mL respectively (P<0.05). At the time of admission, there were no significantly differences in the LVEF and WMSI values between the two groups, and three months after PCI the LVEF and WMSI values of IPOC group were significantly better than those of the control group, those were (57.4 ±8.7)% vs. (53.6 ±9.3)% and (1.19 ±0.4) vs. (1.27 ±0.3) respectively, the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Three months after PCI, the occurrence of MACE in IPOC group was obviously lower than that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Ischemic postconditioning can improve the infarction-related artery blood flow in patients with STEMI who receive emergency PCI treatment, it can also reduce ischemia-reperfusion injury and improve the cardiac function as well as patient’s prognosis after AMI.

Objective:To explore the effects of fractional carbon dioxide laser combined with autologous fat injection in the treatment of hypertrophic scar after burn.Methods:From April 2018 to April 2019, 12 patients with hypertrophic scar after burn who met the inclusion criteria were admitted to the Department of Plastic Surgery and Burns of Xuzhou Renci Hospital, and were included in this prospective parallel controlled clinical study. There were 7 males and 5 females with an age of (32±11) years old and scar area of (412±295) cm 2. One scar was selected from each patient and divided into two equal area scars, and they were divided into combined treatment group and laser alone group with 12 scars in each group according to the ramdom number table.The scar in laser alone group was only treated with fractiona carbon dioxide laser, while the scar in combined treatment group was injected with autologous granular fat and then treated with fractional carbon dioxide laser. Scars in the two groups were treated once every 2 months, a total of 3 times. Before the first treatment and 6 months after the last treatment, the scars in the two groups were evaluated by modified Vancouver Scar Assessment Scale (mVSS), hematoxylin-eosin staining and color Doppler ultrasound. Six months after the last treatment, the curative effect of scars in the two groups was evaluated. The adverse reactions during the whole treatment were recorded. Data were statistically analyzed with independent sample t test, paired sample t test, and McNemar exact probability method test. Results:Six months after the last treatment, the mVSS score of scars in combined treatment group was (4.5±0.4) points, which was significantly lower than (7.8 ±0.6) points in laser alone group ( t=10.000, P<0.01). Six months after the last treatment, the mVSS scores of scars in combined treatment group and laser alone group were significantly lower than those before the first treatment [(13.5±0.7) and (13.8±0.6) points, t=8.805, 9.010, P<0.01]. The effective number of scar treatment in combined treatment group was significantly more than that in laser alone group ( P<0.05). There was no scar aggravation, infection, or other adverse reactions during the treatment of scars in both groups. Before the first treatment, the scars in both groups had large collagen, disordered arrangement, proliferation of capillaries, infiltration of some inflammatory cells, and disappearance of skin appendages. Six months after the last treatment, the scar collagen in both groups was sparse and orderly arranged, and the vascular density was reduced. The improvement of scars in combined treatment group was more obvious than that of laser alone group. Six months after the last treatment, the scar thickness in combined treatment group was significantly smaller than that in laser alone group ( t=2.657, P<0.05). Before the first treatment, the blood flow of scars in both groups was abundant; 6 months of the last treatment, the blood flow of scars in combined treatment group was significantly less than that in laser alone group. Conclusions:Fractional carbon dioxide laser combined with autologous fat injection in the treatment of hypertrophic scar after burn can significantly reduce the pain and itching symptoms of scar, and improve the thickness, texture, and congestion of scar. The combined treatment has synergistic effect and less adverse reactions, which provides a more effective treatment for patients with hypertrophic scar.

Objective To investigate the safety and short-term effectiveness of the hybrid operation for the treatment of intracranial complex ruptured aneurysms.Methods From December 2014 to March 2017,14 consecutive patients with complex ruptured aneurysm treated with hybrid operation at the Department of Neurosurgery,Nanfang Hospital,Southern Medical University were enrolled retrospectively,including 13 with acute spontaneous aneurismal subarachnoid hemorrhage and 1 with hemorrhage in the recurrent aneurysm embolization.Twelve aneurysms were treated with shape clipping.Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) was used to evaluate the clipping effect of aneurysms.Two patients with aneurysm were treated with extracranial-intracranial (EC-IC) bypass and aneurysm trapping.Endovascular balloon occlusion for trapping aneurysms was performed after DSA evaluation of the patency of bridge vessel.Results Of the 14 patients,11 were treated with emergency hybrid operation after angiography,2 were treated with elective surgery,and 1 with emergency surgery for rescue because of bleeding during embolization.DSA revealed that the aneurysm clips in 3 of 12 patients needed to be adjusted,including 2 parent artery stenosis and 1 with incomplete clipping.After adjustment,the clipping was satisfactory.In intracranial and extracranial bypass surgery,angiography revealed that the blood vessels were patent.Trapping of the aneurysms was performed in the one-stage operation.One patient discharged voluntarily after procedure because of serious vasospasm.Onepatient had perfusion pressure breakthrough after surgery and received hematoma evacuation and decompression.The Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) score was 3 at discharge.Other patients had no new neurological dysfunction after operation.Thirteen patients were followed up for 3-24 months after operation.There were no new neurological dysfunction,including GOS 5 in 8 cases and 4 in 5 cases.Six patients underwent DSA examination,in 4 of them the aneurysm clipping did not show aneurysm recurrence,and the parent arteries were patent.Two patients treated with vascular bypass.There were no recurrence of aneurysms,and the parent arteries and anastomotic vessels were patent.Conclusion After preliminary observation,using hybrid operation for the treatment of complicated intracranial ruptured aneurysms was safe and effective.

BACKGROUND:Lisfranc ligament is an important structure to maintain the transverse and longitudinal arch of the foot.This injury is a serious middle-foot injury.Lisfranc ligamentous injuries are complex,and their treatment,along with the preferred method of fixation,is controversial. OBJECTIVE:To compare the short-term efficacy of plate combined with Suture tape versus plate combined with headless compression screw in the treatment of Lisfranc injury with comminuted fractures of the 1st and 2nd proximal metatarsal bones. METHODS:A retrospective analysis was performed on 48 patients with Lisfranc injury due to comminuted fractures of the 1st and 2nd proximal metatarsal bones in Seventh Department of Orthopedics,Dongguan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2019 to June 2022.Among them,25 were fixed with plate combined with Suture tape(observation group)and 23 were fixed with plate combined with headless compression screw(control group).Preoperative classification was performed according to Myerson classification system based on preoperative imaging data.Postoperative follow-up was performed according to fracture healing time,visual analog scale,and American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society(AOFAS)criteria to assess the recovery of foot functions.Postoperative complications were compared and analyzed between the two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)All cases completed the operation successfully and obtained follow-up in the two groups.The postoperative follow-up time of the two groups was 12-36 months,with a mean of(18.0±5.42)months.(2)There were no significant differences in operation time and intraoperative blood loss between the two groups(P>0.05).(3)The fracture healing time of observation group was slightly longer than that of control group(P<0.05).(4)After 3,6,and 12 months of follow-up,the visual analog scale score of the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).(5)At 6 and 12 months after operation,AOFAS score of foot function in the observation group was significantly improved compared with the screw group at various time points after operation(P<0.05),and was significantly higher than that before operation(P<0.05).(6)The postoperative complications were 1 case of traumatic arthritis in the observation group and 1 case of incision infection,1 case of screw fracture,and 2 cases of traumatic arthritis in the control group.There was no significant difference between the two groups(P>0.05),considering the correlation with a small sample size.(7)It is indicated that as for the surgical method of Lisfranc injury with comminuted fractures of the 1st and 2nd proximal metatarsal bones,the application of plate combined with Suture tape internal fixation has a reliable effect in the treatment of Lisfranc joint injury,which can improve the function of the foot joint of patients,and has the advantages of less surgical trauma,fewer postoperative complications,and lower risk of long-term iatrogenic traumatic arthritis.Compared with headless compression screw,it is more beneficial to the recovery of foot function.

Objective: To explore experience of wound treatment of extremely severe mass burn patients involved in August 2nd Kunshan factory aluminum dust explosion accident. Methods: On August 2nd, 2014, 98 extremely severe burn mass patients involved in August 2nd Kunshan factory aluminum dust explosion accident were admitted to 20 hospitals in China. The patients with complete medical record were enrolled in the study and divided into microskin graft group with 56 patients and Meek skin graft group with 42 patients. Split-thickness skin in area of residual skin were resected to repair wounds of patients in microskin graft group and Meek skin graft group by microskin grafting and Meek miniature skin grafting, respectively. The residual wound size on 28 days post injury and wound infection after skin grafting of patients in the two groups, and position of donor site of all patients were retrospectively analyzed. Data were processed with t test and chi-square test. Results: The size of residual wound of patients in Meek skin graft group on 28 days post injury was (59±13)% total body surface area (TBSA), which was obviously smaller than that in microskin graft group [(70±14)%TBSA, t=4.379, P<0.05]. Twenty-nine patients in microskin graft group and 11 patients in Meek skin graft group suffered from obvious wound infection after skin grafting. Wounds of patients in two groups were repaired with residual skin around wound in head, trunk, groin, armpit, and uncommon donor sites of scrotum (4 patients), vola (10 patients), and toe or finger web (8 patients). Conclusions Meek skin graft is the first choice for wound repair of extremely severe burn mass patients, with faster wound healing, less wound infection. Uncommon donor sites of scrotum, vola, and toe or finger web can also be used for wound repair in case of lack of skin.

Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir (OBV/PTV/r) 25/150/100 mg once daily combined with dasabuvir 250mg, twice daily in non-cirrhotic Chinese adult patients with newly diagnosed and treated chronic HCV genotype 1b infection. Methods: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter phase 3 clinical trial was conducted in mainland China, Korea, and Taiwan.Safety and efficacy of OBV/PTV/r plus DSV administered for 12 weeks were evaluated in a newly diagnosed and treated (interferon alpha /pegylated interferon alpha) and ribavirin non-cirrhotic adults with chronic HCVgenotype 1b infection. Patients randomly received OBV/PTV/r plus DSV for 12 weeks (Group A), or placebo for 12 weeks (Group B) followed by an open-label phase of OBV/PTV/r plus DSV for 12 weeks. Sustained response (SVR12) rate obtained at 12 weeks and (SVR24) 24 weeks after discontinuation of treatment, and the incidence of adverse events and laboratory abnormalities after double-blind and open-label phase treatment were assessed. Results: A total of 410 cases of Chinese patients were included and randomly assigned to group A and B (with 205 cases in each group) in a 1:1 ratio. The rates of SVR12 and SVR24 were 99% (95% CI: 94.8% - 99.8%) in the newly diagnosed patients in group A (205 patients) and the rates of SVR12 and SVR24 were 100% in treated patients (95% CI: 96.3% - 100%). Different baseline characteristics had no effect on SVR12 and SVR24 rates. Most of the adverse events occurred were mild, asymptomatic, and≥ 3 laboratory abnormalities during treatment were rare, including elevation of alanine aminotransferase (2 cases in double-blind stage A group), aspartate aminotransferase (Double-blind stage A (3 cases) and total bilirubin (1 case in open-label phase B group); however, those mild adverse events could be recovered after drug withdrawal or discontinuation. only1 person discontinued drugs due to adverse events (Group B, open-label phase). Conclusion The 12 weeks treatment course of OBV/PTV/r combined with DSV produced 99% ~ 100% rates of SVR12 and SVR24 in non-cirrhotic Asian adult patients with newly diagnosed and treated chronic HCV genotype 1b infection, and the tolerance and safety were good.
