Objective To explore the strategy of repairing penile defect after necrosis caused by shortwave diathermy.Methods Between January 2004 and June 2012,18 cases with penile defect after necrosis caused by shortwave diathermy were admitted in our hospital.The age of those patients ranged from 18 to 55 years old (mean 34 years old).Among them,15 cases have been married.All patients have the history of penile shortwave diathermy therapy after surgery.After debridement,penile complete defect was found in 6 cases,incomplete defect was found in 10 cases and corpus cavernosum and corpus spongiosum partly defect was found in 2 cases.Under general anesthesia,we applied penis extent in 10 cases with incomplete defect,forearm free flap in 2 cases with penile complete defect,abdominal artery perforators flap in other 4 cases with penile complete defect.In 2 cases with corpus cavernosum and corpus spongiosum partly defect,the scrotal septal skin flap and fascia pedicle flap was used for 1-stage urethral reconstruction and costicartilage was implanted for 2-stage cavernosum reconstruction.Results 18 patients were followed up for 0.5-10.0 years (mean 2.3 years).16 cases with penile complete defect or incomplete defect had normal length after operation,ranged from 6.3 to 9.2cm.During erectile phase,the length of their penis ranged from 8.7 to 11.5 cm.No feeling abnormality or erectile dysfunction was complained.All patients exhibited the excellent morphology and felling of penis with minor scar in donor site.Early (half a month) complications included distant flap necrosis in 1 case and disruption of the wound in 1 case,which were cured after debridement and conventional treatment.After one year,we did not see the flap atrophy.One case had tumid which influenced penile beautiful and sexual intercourse.It was improved by local liposuction.One month after surgery,two patients with corpora cavernosa and corpus spongiosum partial defect had normal voiding.No feeling and erectile dysfunction were complained during the following-up.Conclusions According to the characteristics of the penile defect due to the shortwave diathermy,selecting the optimal skin flap and individual repair strategy are the keys to successful treatment.

Objective:To compare the accuracy and timeliness of 3-lead electrocardiography (ECG) and pulse oximetry (POX) in neonatal heart rate (HR) monitoring after birth.Methods:This prospective study recruited 42 high-risk newborns with gestational age ≥37 weeks and birth weight >1 500 g who were born through cesarean section without resuscitation requirement in Xi'an People's Hospital (Xi'an Fourth Hospital) from October 2019 to August 2020. 3-lead ECG electrodes and POX sensors were attached to the neonates immediately after drying to continuously monitor the HR within 10 min after birth. All procedure was recorded by video camera, and data were independently analyzed by a clinician after the procedure was completed. Differences in time required to connect the devices, time to obtain a reliable HR and the interval between them, the time needed for obtaining a reliable HR after birth, the proportion of neonates with reliable HR obtained within 5 min after birth and the consistency in the reliable HR readings between the two devices were compared using Wilcoxon signed-rank test, McNemar test, Spearman's correlation coefficient, intraclass correlation coefficient or Bland-Altman bias analysis.Results:The median time required to connect POX and 3-lead ECG and to acquire a reliable HR were 13.0 s (10.0-17.0 s) vs 23.0 s (18.0-28.3 s) ( Z=-5.050, P<0.001), and 79.5 s (56.2-128.0 s) vs 11.0 s (10.0-13.3 s) ( Z=-5.646, P<0.001), respectively. The total time from the beginning of connecting the devices and birth to acquiring a reliable HR were both longer for POX than those for 3-lead ECG [92.0 s (71.3-139.0 s) vs 35.0 s (30.0-39.5 s), Z=-5.579, P<0.001; 110.5 s (85.8-153.5 s) vs 52.0 s (45.0-66.3 s), Z=-5.579, P<0.001]. Reliable HRs were obtained in 69.1% (29/42) and 2.4% (1/42) of the infants by 3-lead ECG and POX within 1 min after birth, respectively. The percentage of infants for obtaining a reliable HR detected by 3-lead ECG within 5 min after birth were more than those by POX, but with statistically significant differences only at the first 60 s, 90 s, 120 s and 150 s (all P<0.001). The median HRs obtained by 3-lead ECG and POX within 10 min after birth were 161 beats/min (147-175 beats/min) and 160 beats/min (146-176 beats/min), respectively ( r=0.966, P<0.001). The mean difference of HR detected by the two devices was 0.56 beats/min (95% CI:-4.3 to 5.4 beats/min). The intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.961, showing good internal consistency. Conclusions:Neonatal HR can be assessed accurately by 3-lead ECG within 1 min after birth, which is far earlier than that by POX. Therefore, 3-lead ECG can be an option for continuously HR monitor in neonatal resuscitation.

Objective To evaluate the significance of surgical exploration for the refractory arterial crisis daring the hypersensitive period (48 h to 96 h) after replantation of severed fingers.Methods One hundred and seventy-one patients experienced refractory arterial crisis during the hypersensitive period after replantation of the proximal thumb from February 1995 to February,2005 in our department.Eighty-seven of them were managed with surgical exploration,including incision injury (n=6),saw injury (n=17),rotation and avulsion injury (n=30), and crush injury (n=34).Eighty-four cases received conservative treatment,including incision injury (n=6),saw injury (n=16).rotation and avulsion injury (n=29),and crush injury (n=33).In the surgery group,the e- mergent explorations were performed as soon as the refractory arterial crisis arose,If arterial spasm or/and thrombosis were found,the involved parts were resected before the artery ends were anastomosed or the finger artery was repaired by cubital vein graft.In the other group,conservative managements were carried out by using intramuscular injection of 30 mg Papaverine and intravenous injection of 20,000-unit Urokinase in 20 mL normal saline.If symptums were not alleviated after half an hour,the procedures were repeated.The conservative managements also included abirritative antipsychotics and analgesia of anodyne.Meanwhile,the survival state of all the digital replants was observed. Results In the surgery group,78 fingers survived,the surviving rate being 89.7%.In the conservative group,41 fingers survived with a surviving rate of 48.8%.The difference was statistically significant (P＜0.01).No obvious complications happened in the two groups.Conclusion Since surgical exploration is crucial to management of refractory arterial crisis during the hypersensitive period after replantation of severed fingers,it should not be readily abandoned.

The HPLC-MS/MS method was developed to profile the dynamics of abscisic acid (ABA) and ABA-glucose ester (ABA-GE) after cloning glycosyltransferase enzyme family gene AtUGT71C5 into Arabidopsis thaliana. By constructing over-expression lines (OE) and down-expression lines (DN), we acquired mutant strains to analyze the function of AtUGT71C5. The multiple-reaction monitoring (MRM) was used for quantitative determination in negative mode. The transition was m/z 263.1-153.0 for ABA ([M-H]t), m/z 425.1-263.0 for ABA-GE ([M-H]t), and m/z 321.0-152.0 for chloramphe-nicol. The linear range was 0.8684-217.1 ng/mL for ABA and 0.3920-196.0 ng/mL for ABA-GE. The accuracy was 88.0-109.0% for ABA and 86.6-113.0% for ABA-GE; the inter-day and intra-day precisions were less than 5.4%for ABA and 8.9%for ABA-GE, respectively. This method is simple and sensitive enough for determination of ABA and ABA-GE in A. thaliana leaves. All the evidence confirmed the speculation that AtUGT71C5 can mediate abscisic acid homeostasis.

The amino acid contents of five floral sources Chinese honeys (jujube, rape, chaste, acacia, and lungan) were measured using reversed phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). The results showed that proline was the main amino acid in most of the analyzed samples. Phenylalanine presents at the highest content in chaste honey samples, and the total amino acid contents of chaste honeys were also significantly higher than those of other honey samples. Based on the amino acid contents, honey samples were classified using chemometric methods (cluster analysis (CA), principal component analysis (PCA), and discriminant analysis (DA)). According to the CA results, chaste honeys could be separated from other honeys, while the remaining samples were correctly grouped together when the chaste honey data were excluded. By using DA, the overall correct classification rate reached 100%. The results revealed that amino acid contents could potentially be used as indicators to identify the botanical origin of unifloral honeys.

Objective:To study the expression of caveolin-1 in colorectal adenocarcinoma tissues and its correlation with microlymphatic vessel density (LMVD), and to investigate the clinical pathological prognostic significance of caveolin-1 and LMVD in patients with colorectal cancer.Methods:The expression of caveolin-1 and LMVD in 45 specimens of normal colorectal tissues, and 90 specimens of colorectal adenocarcinoma tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry technique. The correlation between their expression and the clinicopathologic features was analyzed. Muhivariable Cox regression was used to analyze the association between the laboratory indices and overall survival time.Results:The positive rates of caveolin-1 in colorectal adenocarcinoma tissues were significantly higher than those in normal colorectal tissues (P<0.01). LMVD in colorectal adenocarcinoma tissues were significantly higher than those in normal colorectal tissues (P<0.01). Mean LMVD in group with caveolin-1 positive was significantly higher than in that with caveolin-1 negative. The median survival time was 26.7 months. Cox regression analysis showed that the caveolin-1 expression, invation depth, lymph nodemetastasis, TNM stage, liver metastasis and LMVD were independent risk factors of overall survival time of patients with colorectal carcinoma. Conclusions:Caveolin-1 may contribute to the lymphangiogenesis in the tumor. During the occurrence and development of colorectal adenocarcinoma, there is a close relationship between the expression of caveolin-1 and lymphatic microvessel of tumor. Caveolin-1 expression and microlymphatic vessel density are significant prognostic value of colorectal carcinoma.
