Objective To study the anatomical characteristics of sural blood vessel, and to explore the clinical effect of sural blood vessel combined with free skin flap in repairing large tissue defect of calf. Methods 10 fresh adult cadavers were col-lected for experimental studies. Chose 8 cadavers randomly and ligate the sural medial vessel (4 cases) or sural lateral vessel (4 cases) of one limb, leaving the contralateral limb un-ligated as control. Angiography was performed to observe the blood supply of the gastrocnemius muscle after the ligation of the sural medial vessel or sural lateral vessel. For the remaining 2 cadavers, the ori-gin, diameter, and location of the communicating branch of the gastrocnemius muscle were observed by macroscopic anatomy and vascular cast. The data of 19 patients with large tissue defect of calf from October 2006 to September 2013 were analyzed retro-spectively for clinical research. There were 11 males and 8 females aged from 10-40 years (mean, 32 years). 12 patients took sural medial blood vessels as recipient vessels, and 7 patients took sural lateral blood vessels. 6 patients were grafted with free chest na-vel flaps, 8 with anterolateral thigh flap, 2 with lateral thoracic flap, and 3 with latissimus dorsi flap. The areas of wound surface were ranging from 5 cm×10 cm-8 cm×37 cm. The areas of the flap dissected were ranging from 7 cm×10 cm-10 cm×30 cm. Re-sults The study found that the blood supply of gastrocnemius muscle of the calf was multifocal, and was mainly by sural artery. When the blood supply of sural artery was cut off from one side, the gastrocnemius muscle could be supplied by the communicat-ing branches between medial and lateral head of gastrocnemius muscle and the communicating branches of soleus muscle. The communicating branches were at constant anatomical locations, with larger diameter and rich branches. All the 19 cases of free skin flip transplantation were survived. Healing time of wound was ranging from 13-29 d, among which 11 cases were primary healing, and 8 were secondary healing. The follow-up duration was ranging from 12-24 months. The flaps could endure friction of certain degree. No sensory dysfunction was reported. For the cases that split thick skin graft or split-thickness thin skin flap taken from abdomen or huckle were autografted to cover the donor site, primary healing was all gained. Conclusion The sural blood vessels are deeply located in the gastrocnemius muscle at constant anatomical locations, with a long pedicle and a large diameter, and are easy to be dissected, thus they are suited for anastomosis. Sural vessel combined with free skin flip provides a new treat-ment option for the repair of large tissue defect of calf.

Objective To study the differences of esophageal manometry (M),pH set-up method (P) and X-ray (X) on positioning of the 24-hour esophageal pH catheter and relative factors. Methods Fifty subjects underwent M, then pH catheter was located by P and X. The difference between methods and the relative factors such as body height,lower esophageal sphincter (LES) length etc were analyzed. The difference of less than 2 cm between two methods was accepted. Results The length between the location determined by M,Pand X and nose were (37.9 ±2.9),(40.8 ±4.4) and (40.7 ±5.3) cm, respectively.There was significant difference between P and M as well as between X and M (P< 0.01 ). The coincidence rate was 62.0%(31/50) between P and M;84.0%(42/50) between P and X;and 58.0%(29/50) between X and M. Compared with P,M was (2.9 ±3.9) cm nearer to the stomach. Age, body height and LES length were main factors which affect the difference between P and M (P< 0.01 or < 0.05),body height and LES length were main factors which affect the difference between X and M (P<0.05 or <0.01). Conclusions Compared with M, the location determined by P is nearer to stomach. The location of X is varied. Body height and LES length are main relative factors.

Objective To assess the prevalence of Personality Diagnostic Questionnaire (PDQ)personality deviations in patients referred for functional dyspepsia (FD) with reliable and universal psychological measures, and to explore the relationship between co-occurring PDQ-personality deviations and functional dyspepsia. Methods The sample comprised 246 patients referred for functional dyspepsia. Four groups were divided according to their patterns of gastrointestinal symptoms: the FD group, FD with refluxlike symptom group(FD + RS group), FD with irritable bowel syndrome group( FD + IBS group), and FD with reflux-like symptom and irritable bowel syndrome group ( FD + RS + IBS group). Participants were assessed with the Personality Diagnostic Questionnaire for DSM-Ⅳ ( PDQ-4 ) to evaluate the presence of personality deviations. Results Overall 65% patients scored positive for any personality deviation, male and female alike. Cluster C (anxious/fearful) personality was most commonly found in FD patients (142 patients, 57.7% ). The FD + IBS group and the FD + RS +IBS group had significantly higher total PDQ scores than the FD group (23.39 ± 8. 77 and 24. 22 ± 10. 97 vs 18.98 ± 11.88, P < 0. 05, respectively),indicating that FD patients with greater level of personality deviations tend to report other symptoms involving the esophagus and lower gastrointestinal tract. Reflux-like symptom without actual pathological acid regurgitation indicated cluster A (odd/eccentric) personality deviations. Conclusions The current study shows personality deviations are common in patients referred for functional dyspepsia. Negative emotions,maladaptive coping, and lack of social support, may strongly influence their healthcare-seeking behavior.There is no single personality type specific for some kind of gastrointestinal symptom. But FD patients with personality deviations tend to report other symptoms involving the esophagus and lower gastrointestinal tract.
