Tension-free repair for inguinal hernias has been led into China since 1997 and being promoted quick development of hernia and abdominal wall surgery in China,meanwhile,there are still many problems in the recurrence,chronic pain and patch infection due to irregular operations.In order to solve these problems and improve the diagnosis,treatment and research levels of hernia and abdominal wall surgery,surgeons must pay attention to the basic and clinical technologies,quality control and so on.The studies on etiology of hernia will bring innovative therapy,registration system will contribute to summarize the clinical experiences,and establishment and implementation of quality control of hernia could ensure the effects of diagnosis and treatment.However,there is still a controversy about whether laparoscopic technology on inguinal hernias is minimally invasive surgery or not,though it is safe and effective.

Objective: To analyze the prevalence and risk factor of co-exiting pre-hypertension and pre-diabetes condition in middle to elder adults, and to provide the theoretical basis for preventing cardiovascular disease in relevant population in Chengdu area.
Methods: A total of 5240 middle to elder adults from (40-79) years of age in Chengdu area were enrolled for a stratiifed cluster sampling study. The blood pressure, glucose and other clinical information were collected by more than 30 medical professionals with uniifed training to investigate the prevalence of co-exiting pre-hypertension and pre-diabetes condition with the risk factors.
Results: The overall prevalence rate of coexisting pre-hypertension and pre-diabetes condition was at 12.5% in Chengdu area and the standardized prevalence was at 11.5%. The prevalence rate in urban area was 12.4% and in rural was 13.2%, P=0.47, the prevalence in male gender was 12.7% and in female was 12.4%,P=0.81. With the increased age, the prevalence trend was elevated accordingly. Multi-regression analysis indicated that the elder age, overweight or obesity (female with abdominal obesity), sibling history of hypertension, hyper-triglyceridemia, multiple childbirth and menopause had the higher risk of coexisting pre-hypertension and pre-diabetes condition, allP<0.05; the higher educational level could decrease the risk of prevalence in male gender,P<0.05 and the proper exercise could decrease the risk in female gender,P<0.05.
Conclusion: There is a high prevalence rate of coexisting pre-hypertension and pre-diabetes condition in middle to elder population in Chengdu area and the prevalence is closely related to age. It is important to prevent such condition by elevating educational level nationwide, controlling waist and body weight, adjusting diet structure with proper exercise.

In recent 20 years, hernia and abdominal wall surgery has made great progress in China. However, what we′ve done still leaves much to be desired. Related guidelines of hernia disease had been conducted, but China is short of multi-center, prospective, and large-sample research evidence. These guidelines are still with low evidence level, and contents need additional modified to well meet Chinese real situation. In terms of treatment of inguinal and abdominal wall incisional hernia, some consensus has been reached from certain key issues globally, but further exploration are still needed. To stand at top of the world, we are a long distance. We should not only strengthen training and quality control but also establish patient registration system and overall management process.

As the descending genicular artery supplies multiple perforating branches around the knee joint,it can be used in corticocancellous,osteomusculocutaneous and other composite tissue flaps to repair composite tissue defects at one stage.Consequently it plays a very important role in the field of reconstruction surgery.At present,however,there has been no systematic review of its clinical applications.Having reviewed all the recent reports available on the free tissue perforator flaps with descending genicular artery,we classified them into five major forms.In this paper,we comment on their anatomical mechanisms,variations and clinical applications.Additionally,we predict that digital technology will be used in the future clinical application of the perforator tissue flaps with descending genicular artery.
