Xuan Fei Run Zao Decoction was used for treatment of 486 cases of psoriasis with a total effective rate of 90. 3%, so as to test and verify the TCM theory of the lung being in charge of the hair and the lung being closely related with derma tosis. Clinical study found that in patients of psoriasis there was humoral immunological hyperfunction, manifesting increases of IgG and IgA; trace elements copper and ferrum levels increased and zinc, manganese and calcium decreased In the hair: packed cell volume and viscosity of whole blood increased, and erythrocyte sedimentation rate increased. It is suggested that psoriasis is possibly related to changes of immunity, blood rheology and trace elements in the body.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effects of perforator flaps in the repair of limb defects.Methods:Anterolateral thigh perforator flap (ALTP), deep inferior epigastric perforator flap (DIEP), posterior in- terosseous artery perforator flap (PIAP), thoracodorsal artery perforator flap (TDAP), medial sural artery perforator flap (MSAP) and radial collateral artery perforator flap (RCAP) were used to repair 56 cases of limb wounds from Novem- ber, 2016 to October, 2018. The sizes of soft tissue defect were ranged from 1.5 cm×1.5 cm to 10.0 cm×24.0 cm, while the sizes of flap were ranged from 2.0 cm×2.0 cm to 11.0 cm×25.0 cm. The recipient sites were all sutured di- rectly. The flaps survived and wound healing were observed postoperatively. Appearance, texture, recovery of the limb function, shape and function of donor site were followed-up regularly.Results:One case of venous crisis occurred on the 3rd day after inferior epigastric artery perforator flap surgery, and survived after exploratory surgery with the necrosis in the distal part of the flap, which healed after dressing. Other 55 flaps all survived. Both recipient site and donor site healed in primary union. The color of the flaps was normal. The skins were soft, and the functions of the limbs recovered well. Only a linear scar remained in the donor area without dysfunction.Conclusion:The perforator flap surgery is reliable for limbs repair and can be promoted and applied.

Objective To investigate the effect of Niaoduqing Granule on the quality of life and the activa-tion of TGF-β1/Smad signalling in chronic renal failure rats received peritoneal dialysis. Methods Thirty SD rats were used to establish peritoneal dialysis models and were randomly divided into the model group(group M),the low dose group(group L),and the high dose group(group H).The dosage of group L and group H was 2 and 4 g/(kg·d),respectively. The body mass,the number of independent activities,the index of renal hypertrophy, Scr,BUN,experssion of TGF-β1 and p-Samd2/3 were determined. Results The body weight growth rate was shown decreased as follows:group N>group H>group L>group M.The number of spontaneous activity of group M decreased significantly than those in other groups. Scr,BUN and kidney hypertrophy index were significantly different among the four groups.Compared with group M,BUN,Scr,kidney hypertrophy index,levels of TGF-β 1 and p-Samd2/3 were significantly decreased in group L and H. Levels of TGF-β1 and p-Samd2/3 were signifi-cant different between group L and H. Conclusions Niaoduqing Granule can improve the quality of life and re-duce the level of serum creatinine and urea nitrogen in chronic renal failure rats received peritoneal dialysis,and the mechanism may be associated with the regulation of TGF-β1/Smad signaling pathway.

【Objective】 To investigate the correlation of serum exosomal microRNA-301a (miR-301a) with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events after peritoneal dialysis in diabetic nephropathy. 【Methods】 A total of 211 patients with diabetic nephropathy treated with peritoneal dialysis from June 2019 to June 2020 in the First Hospital Affiliated of Hebei North University were selected as study subjects. Serum exosomal miR-301a was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The patients were divided into high miR-301a group and low miR-301a group based on the median of miR-301a; the clinical data of the two groups were compared. The correlation of miR-301a with high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) was analyzed by Spearman. Linear regression was applied to analyze the factors associated with the effect of miR-301a. The patients were followed up for two years. Kaplan-Meier and Log-Rank were conducted to compare the cumulative incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events between the two groups, and COX regression and restricted cubic spline were used to analyze the level-effect relationship between miR-301a and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events after peritoneal dialysis. 【Results】 Thirty-seven cases (17.54%) of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events occurred during follow-up. The hs-CRP level and dialysis duration were lower in low miR-301a group than in high miR-301a group (P<0.05). There was a positive correlation between miR-301a and hs-CRP (r
