Objective:To investigate the clinical effects of negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) in treating the poor healing of incisions after different abdominal operations.Methods:The retrospective observational study was conducted. From June 2019 to December 2020, 42 patients with poor healing of incisions after abdominal surgery were admitted to Center of Burns and Trauma of the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University, including 29 males and 13 females, aged 23-81 years. The disease course of poor healing of abdominal incision was 3-60 d. The preoperative examination of patients was completed after admission, and NPWT was used after debridement. According to the dehiscence level of incision, the negative pressure value of -10.64 to -6.65 kPa was set. The incisions were sutured in the second stage when the incisions had good blood circulation. The cause of abdominal surgery, the dehiscence level and the cause of poor healing of abdominal incision were investigated, and the final healing of abdominal incision and the occurrence of complication were observed.Results:The causes of abdominal operations in this group of patients who ocurred poor healing of abdominal incisions were ranked according to the composition ratio, with the top 4 causes being colon cancer (9 cases, accounting for 21.4%), bile duct disease (8 cases, accounting for 19.0%), liver cancer (5 cases, accounting for 11.9%), and appendicitis (4 cases, accounting for 9.5%). There were 25 cases (59.5%) with dehiscence of abdominal incision in the deep fascia layer, and the other 17 cases (40.5%) with dehiscence of abdominal incision in the superficial fascia layer. The causes of poor healing of abdominal incision were ranked according to the composition ratio, with the top 3 causes being infection (24 cases, accounting for 57.1%), fat liquefaction (11 cases, accounting for 26.2%), and suture reaction (5 cases, accounting for 11.9%). The blood circulation in 40 patients was improved after being treated with NPWT, and the incisions were sutured in the second stage. The incisions healed well when the suture lines were removed in the second to third week. Intestinal fistula and bile leakage developed during the NPWT treatment, respectively in the other 2 patients, in which negative pressure equipment was removed subsequently, and the incisions healed after adequate drainage and conventional dressing changes.Conclusions:NPWT is effective in treating poor healing of abdominal incision after different abdominal surgeries. The clinicians need to comprehensively assess the patient's condition to determine when and how to use NPWT to avoid the occurrence of intestinal fistula, bile leakage, and other complications.

ObjectiveTo compare the regulatory effects of five plant polysaccharides on immune function of cyclophosphamide (CTX)-induced immunosuppressed mice by network Meta-analysis, to provide evidence for the clinical application of polysaccharides and the development of effective polysaccharides and oligosaccharides. MethodSeven databases including PubMed, Embase and Web of Science were searched, and studies that met the inclusion criteria were selected. The methodological quality of the included studies was evaluated using the risk of bias tool of Systematic Review Centre for Laboratory Animal Experimentation (SYRCLE), and the data were analyzed using RStudio and StataSE 17. ResultA total of 62 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were included, involving 1 512 mice and five plant polysaccharides: Astragalus polysaccharide (APS), lentinan (LNT), Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharide (GLP), Poria cocos polysaccharide (PCC), and Codonopsis pilosula polysaccharide (CPP). The network Meta-analysis showed that APS ranked first in increasing spleen index (mean deviation (MD)=3.54, 95% confidence interval (CI) [2.10, 5.96]), thymus index (MD=1.98, 95%CI [1.55, 2.54]) and T helper cells (CD4+)/T suppressor cells (CD8+) (MD=1.63, 95%CI [1.13, 2.37]), while CPP ranked first in up-regulating the number of peripheral blood leukocytes (MD=24.16, 95%CI [8.21, 71.12]), macrophage phagocytosis index (MD=2.52, 95%CI [1.32, 4.82]) and immunoglobulin M (IgM) content (MD=1.79, 95%CI [1.12, 2.85]). ConclusionAll the five plant polysaccharides can regulate the immune function of immunosuppressed mice. Among them, APS has advantages in elevating spleen index, thymus index and CD4+/CD8+, while CPP focuses on increasing the number of peripheral blood leukocytes, macrophage phagocytosis index and IgM content. Due to limited number and quality of included studies, the conclusions needs to be further verified with large samples and high-quality studies.

Objective To investigate the analgesic effects of inhaling 50% nitrous oxide on burn pediatric patients during and after dressing change. Methods A total of 120 burn pediatric patients received outpatient dressing and hospitalized from September 2012 to September 2014 were enrolled in our study, and they were all in accordance with the inclusion criteria. The 120 pediatric patients were divided into control group (n=30) treated with inhalation of oxygen during dressing change) and treatment group (n=90) treated with inhalation of 50% nitrous oxide during dressing change ) according to the computer-generated list of random number. The other treatments in control group and treatment group were the same. Before, during and after dressing change, degree of pain, heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, oxygen saturation and adverse effects were observed at the same time points. Data were processed with analysis of chi-square test, covariance and Student′s t test. Results There were no significant differences between the two groups in levels of HR, SBP, DBP, and SpO2 before dressing change (t=0. 34, 0. 57, 0. 11, 0. 98, respectively;P>0. 05). Compared with those of control group, levels of HR, SBP, DBP, and SpO2 in treatment group were significantly ameliorated during dressing change (t=25. 96, 24. 11, 8. 37, 20. 29, respectively;P<0. 01). After dressing change, the levels of DBP in the two groups were close (t=1. 57,P>0. 05), but the levels of HR, SBP, and SpO2 showed statistical differences (t=5. 20, 8. 64, 3. 37, respectively;P<0. 01). Before dressing change, the pain scores were approximate between control group and treatment group (t=0. 18,P>0. 05). Compared with those in control group, the pain scores in treatment group during and after dressing change were (2. 82 ± 0.8) and (1.2 ±0. 84), which were significantly lower than those in the control group (t =23. 00, 4. 30, respectively;P<0. 01). There were no obvious adverse effects in two groups during and after dressing change. The results of the covariance analysis of pain scores during dressing change showed statistical differences ( F=867. 956,P <0. 01). Conclusions 50% nitrous oxide seems to have obvious analgesic effects on burns pediatric patients during dressing change, and it can be widely used.
