Objective To investigate the protective effect of recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) on gastric mucosa of rats with hemorrhagic shock. Methods Eighteen healthy male Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were randomly assigned into 3 groups, 6 rats for each group: control group, hemorrhagic shock group and rhGH treated group. The animals in control group were subjected to anaesthesia and intubation, without hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation, and all the parameters were determined 4h after intubation. The animals in hemorrhagic shock group and the rhGH treated group were not only given anaesthesia, intubation for carotid artery and internal jugular vein, but also reproduced as hemorrhagic shock-resuscitation model by bleeding from carotid artery and blood transfusion via internal jugular vein. The animals in rhGH treated group were given rhGH (1.5U/kg) when resuscitation began. In the hemorrhagic shock group and rhGH treated group all the parameters were determined 2h after resuscitation. Gastric mucosal blood flow (GMBF) was determined with laser doppler flowmetry (LDF), and the extent of gastric mucosal injury was assessed with optical microscope and transmission electron microscope (TEM). Results GMBF of the rats in hemorrhagic shock group was significantly lower than that in control group (260.4?49.6bpu vs. 418.6?57.3bpu, P0.05). The gastric mucosa injuries in the rats of rhGH treated group were greatly improved. Conclusion The rhGH, through enhancing the GMBF, can ameliorate the gastric mucosal ischemic-reperfusion injury in rats with hemorrhagic shock.

Objective: To explore the effects of insulin therapy on skeletal muscle wasting (SMW) in severely scalded rats and its related mechanism. Methods: Totally 48 male Wistar rats aged 7-8 weeks were divided into simple scald (SS) group and insulin therapy (IT) group according to the random number table, with 24 rats in each group. After weighing the body mass and measuring the blood glycemic level of the tail end with a glucometer, the rats in the two groups were immersed in hot water at 94 ℃ for 12 seconds to make a full-thickness dorsal scald model involving 30% total body surface area. Rats in group IT were subcutaneously injected with 1 U/kg insulin glargine at 8: 00 a day from post injury day (PID) 1 to 7, whilst rats in group SS were given the same amount of normal saline. Rats in the two groups were given 10 mL/kg enteral nutritional emulsion by intragastric infusion at 8: 00 (after insulin administration), 13: 00, and 18: 00 a day respectively from PID 1 to 7. The blood glycemic levels of tail end of rats in the two groups were measured by glucometer before insulin administration on PID 1-4, 6, and 7 and on every morning of PID 8, 9, 11, 12, and 14. The body mass of rats in the two groups on PID 14 without any treatment was weighed. Eight rats from each group were collected respectively on PID 4, 7, and 14 to harvest tibialis anterior muscle (TAM) samples. The mass of TAM on PID 14 was weighed. The ultrastructural changes of TAM myocytes on PID 7 were observed with transmission electron microscope. The apoptotic rates of TAM myocytes on PID 4, 7, and 14 were assessed by the assay of terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated deoxyuridinetriphate-biotin nick end labeling, the expressions of cysteine-aspartic protease-3 (caspase-3) of TAM on PID 4, 7, and 14 were detected with immunohistochemistry, and protein expressions of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress (ERS) associated proteins glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78), CCAAT/enhancer binding protein-homologous protein (CHOP), and activated caspase-12 of TAM on PID 4, 7, and 14 were detected with Western blotting. Data were processed with completely random design t test, analysis of variance for repeated measurement, analysis of variance for factorial design, t test, and Bonferroni correction. Results: The blood glycemic level and body mass of rats in the two groups before injury were similar (t=0.204, 0.405, P>0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in blood glycemic levels of rats between the two groups on PID 1, 6, 9, 11, 12, and 14 (t=0.229, 3.339, 1.610, 0.178, 0.181, 0.079, P>0.05). Compared with those of group SS, blood glycemic levels of rats in group IT were significantly lower on PID 2, 3, 4, 7, and 8 (t=7.245, 4.165, 4.609, 4.018, 3.995, P<0.05 or P<0.01). On PID 14, the body mass and TAM mass of rats in group IT were (271±19) g and (0.47±0.05) g respectively, both obviously higher than (254±12) g and (0.43±0.04) g of group SS (t=2.159, 2.375, P<0.05). On PID 7, nuclear pyknosis and deformation, chromosome misdistribution, and ER swelling in TAM myocytes of rats in group SS were observed; the apoptotic alterations and ER swelling of TAM myocytes were alleviated in rats of group IT as compared with those of group SS. The apoptotic rates of TAM myocytes of rats in group IT were obviously lower than those of group SS on PID 4, 7, and 14 (t=4.262, 9.153, 9.799, P<0.01). The expressions of caspase-3 in TAM of rats in group IT were obviously lower than those of group SS on PID 7 and 14 (t=10.429, 7.617, P<0.01). Compared with those of group SS, the protein expressions of GRP78 were obviously increased on PID 4 and 14 (t=4.172, 4.437, P<0.05), the protein expressions of activated caspase-12 were obviously decreased on PID 7 and 14 (t=11.049, 11.181, P<0.01), and the protein expressions of CHOP were obviously decreased on PID 4, 7, and 14 (t=13.837, 9.572, 6.930, P<0.01) in TAM of rats in group IT. Conclusions Insulin therapy may reduce skeletal muscle myocytes apoptosis and SMW by alleviating ERS in rats with severe scald.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics and causes of death of 80 dead cases with confirmed coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).Methods:The clinical data of 80 dead patients with COVID-19 who were admitted to Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from January 11 to February 11, 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.The laboratory examination indexes (including white blood cells, lymphocytes, procalcitonin (PCT), lactic acid, D-dimmer, fibrinogen degradation products, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (N-proBNP), ultra sensitive-troponin I, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and CD4 + T lymphocyte) of the patients at the time of admission were compared with the indexes at the last time before death. Statistical analysis was conducted by using paired t test or Wilcoxon′s signed rank test. Results:The median age was 72 years old of the 80 patients, and 78.75%(63/80) of them were older than 60 years. Thirty-six cases (45.00%) were severe and 44(55.00%) were critical at admission. Fifty-eight cases (72.50%) had underlying diseases. The common underlying diseases were hypertension, diabetes mellitus, coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Comparing the patients′ first laboratory tests at admission with those before death, white blood cells increased (8.01(4.86, 12.29)×10 9/L vs 12.55(8.25, 17.66)×10 9/L), lymphocytes decreased (0.70(0.46, 0.88)×10 9/L vs 0.54(0.39, 0.75)×10 9/L), PCT increased (0.20(0.11, 0.74) μg/L vs 1.00(0.20, 1.99) μg/L), lactic acid increased (2.10(1.40, 3.10) mmol/L vs 3.10(2.60, 4.10) mmol/L), D-dimmer increased (4.33(0.97, 18.98) mg/L vs 15.29(5.17, 53.44) mg/L), fibrinogen degradation products increased (15.90(3.58, 76.60) mg/L vs 63.14(21.23, 110.67) mg/L), N-proBNP increased (1 078.00(347.35, 2 996.50) ng/L vs 3 439.50(1 576.00, 9 281.50) ng/L), ultra-sensitive troponin I increased (0.08(0.03, 0.17) μg/L vs 0.33(0.14, 2.47) μg/L), LDH increased (397.00(327.00, 523.50) U/L vs 624.00(481.00, 854.00) U/L) and CD4 + T lymphocyte decreased (137.00(104.00, 168.00)/μL vs 97.00(67.00, 128.00)/μL). The differences between the two groups were all statistically significant ( W=238.00, 1 053.50, 150.00, 152.00, 192.00, 190.00, 108.00, 57.00, 53.00 and 40.00, respectively, all P<0.05). All patients received antiviral and respiratory-support therapy and the main cause of death was respiratory failure caused by intractable hypoxemia and multiple organ failure. Among them, seven cases died in one day hospitalization, and 66 cases died in seven days hospitalization. Conclusions:Elderly patients with a variety of chronic underlying diseases have poor prognosis. It′s essential to pay more attention and deal with the above clinical characteristics at an early stage to improve the outcome of the COVID-19 patients.

As a new type of functional wound dressing, conductive hydrogel, shows broad prospects of application in the field of wound repair due to its suitable electrical conductivity, good moisture retention, excellent biocompatibility, and biological effects such as mediating cell migration and proliferation, and promoting angiogenesis and collagen deposition. Combined with the clinical electrical stimulation therapy, the conductive hydrogel primarily showed curative effects of promoting granulation tissue formation, re-epithelialization, and wound healing, providing a new treatment idea for the repair of diabetic wounds. This review summarized the research advances of electronic conductive hydrogels and ionic conductive hydrogels in recent years based on different conductive mechanisms. Meanwhile, the applications of conductive hydrogel in the diabetic wound repair were specifically introduced, and the future development of conductive hydrogel wound dressing was prospected.

OBJECTIVETo observe the curative effects of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) combined with negative-pressure wound therapy (NPWT) on patients with sternal osteomyelitis and sinus tract after thoracotomy.

METHODSSixty-two patients with sternal osteomyelitis and sinus tract after thoracotomy, hospitalized from March 2011 to June 2015, were retrospectively analyzed. Based on whether receiving PRP or not, patients were divided into two groups, group NPWT ( 22 patients hospitalized from March 2011 to December 2012) and combination treatment group (CT, 40 patients hospitalized from January 2013 to June 2015). After debridement, patients in group NPWT were treated with continuous NPWT (negative pressure values from -15.96 to -13.30 kPa), while those in group CT were treated with PRP gel (blood platelet counts in PRP ranged from 1 450×10(9)/L to 1 800×10(9)/L, with 10-15 mL in each dosage) made on the surgery day to fill the sinus tract and wound, followed by NPWT. Negative pressure materials were changed every 5 days until 20 days after surgery in patients of both groups. PRP gel was replenished before changing of negative pressure materials in patients of group CT. The sinus tract sealing time, wound healing time, number of patients who had secondary repair surgery, number of patients who had recurrence of sinus tract within three months after wound healing, and length of hospital stay were recorded. Data were processed with t test, Fisher's exact test, and chi-square test.

RESULTSThe sinus tract sealing time, wound healing time, and length of hospital stay in patients of group CT were (16±8), (27±13), and (43±13) d respectively, which were all significantly shorter than those in group NPWT [(29±14), (41±17), and (60±20) d, with t values from 3.88 to 4.67, P values below 0.01]. The number of patients who had secondary repair surgery in group CT was less than that in group NPWT (P<0.01). There was no statistically significant difference in the number of patients who had recurrence of sinus tract between two groups (P>0.05).

CONCLUSIONSCompared with NPWT only, PRP combined with NPWT has great curative effects on patients with sternal osteomyelitis and sinus tract after thoracotomy, for it shortens sinus tract sealing time, wound healing time, and length of hospital stay, and avoids the secondary repair surgery. This method is simple and safe with little injury.

Objective:To explore the clinical strategies for preservation of the exposed implant in chronic wounds and wound repair.Methods:From January 2016 to January 2019, totally 8 patients (4 males and 4 females, aged 10 to 73 years) sustaining postoperative chronic wounds with exposed implants were admitted to the Fourth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital. There were 2 cases of abdominal patch exposure after abdominal trauma surgery, 2 cases of titanium plate exposure post craniocerebral surgery, 3 cases of internal fixator exposure post orthopedic surgery, and 1 case of cerebrospinal fluid drainage tube exposure after craniocerebral surgery. The wound exudate was collected for bacterial culture on admission. On the basis of glycemic control and correction of anemia and hypoproteinemia, thorough wound debridement was performed as soon as possible and the wound area after debridement ranged from 2.0 cm×0.5 cm to 6.0 cm×5.0 cm. The wounds of 4 patients were immediately closed after debridement, including 1 case by primary closure, 1 case by primary closure after local filling of platelet rich plasma gel, and 2 cases by local flap transplantation, with flap size of 10.0 cm×8.0 cm and 12.0 cm×8.0 cm, respectively. The donor sites of flaps were sutured directly and all the incisions were treated with continuous vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) after surgery. The other 4 patients were treated with continuous VSD after debridement to improve the wound bed. The wound of 1 case healed gradually, 1 case received direct wound suturing, and the wounds of 2 cases were repaired with thin split-thickness skin grafts from the thigh or the head. The results of bacterial culture of wound exudate on admission, wound healing post surgery, and follow-up were observed and recorded.Results:The bacterial culture of wound exudate on admission was positive in 6 patients, and 10 strains of bacteria were isolated with Staphylococcus epidermidis as the main pathogen. All the skin grafts or flaps of patients survived post surgery, with the incisions and wounds healed and all the implants preserved. After 1 to 3 years of follow-up, no recurrence of wound was found in any patient. Conclusions:The postoperative chronic wounds with exposed implants can be closed in primary stage by direct suturing or flap transplantation if it is clean enough on the basis of thorough debridement. The wounds with large defects or serious infection can be treated with continuous VSD firstly and then closed with direct suturing or skin grafting for delayed wound closure, thereby to reach the treatment goal of preserving the implants and repairing the wounds simultaneously.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and the related information on the diagnosis and treatment of inpatients with skin and soft tissue injuries.Methods:The medical records of inpatients with skin and soft tissue injuries who were admitted to the Fourth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital (hereinafter referred to as the author′s unit) from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2018, conforming to the study criteria, were retrospectively analyzed. The indexes included inpatients′gender, age, wound course, underlying disease, wound type, wound site, and wound microbiological culture result, methods and outcome of treatment, type of medical payment, hospital day, and hospitalization cost. Data were statistically analyzed with Mann-Whitney U test, Kruskal-Wallis H test, and chi-square test. Results:(1) A total of 2 997 inpatients, conforming to the study criteria, were admitted to the author′s unit during the 5 years. There were 1 803 (60.16%) males and 1 194 (39.84%) females. The distribution of gender of patients showed significant differences during the 5 years ( χ2=13.203, P<0.05). The age of female patients was significantly older than that of male patients ( Z=-6.387, P<0.01). There were 882 (29.43%) patients with acute wounds and 2 115 (70.57%) patients with chronic wounds. The distribution of acute wounds and chronic wounds of patients showed significant differences during the 5 years ( χ2=66.806, P<0.01). The age of patients with chronic wounds was significantly older than that of patients with acute wounds ( Z=-12.582, P<0.01). A total of 1 910 patients (3 847 cases) were complicated with underlying diseases. The common underlying diseases orderly were diabetes 1 151 (29.92%) cases, hypertension 884 (22.98%) cases, coro-nary atherosclerotic heart disease 414 (10.76%) cases, old cerebral infarction 258 (6.71%) cases, and paraplegia 258 (6.71%) cases. More patients with chronic wounds were complicated with various underlying diseases compared with patients with acute wounds ( χ2=130.649, P<0.01). (2) The common types of wounds were postoperative non-healing wounds, burn wounds, diabetic foot ulcers, pressure ulcers, and skin and soft tissue infection. The distribution of types of wounds showed significant differences during the 5 years ( χ2=342.265, P<0.01). There were 3 957 wounds. The common wound sites were feet, legs, chests, and so on. A total of 976 patients underwent microbiological examination. The results of 719 (73.67%) patients were positive and 257 (26.33%) patients were negative. The positive rate of wound microbiological culture of patients with chronic wounds was significantly higher than that of patients with acute wounds ( χ2=33.981, P<0.01). Among the patients with acute wounds, 111 patients (72.08%) were simply infected, 43 (27.92%) patients were mixed infected. Among the patients with chronic wounds, 364 (64.42%) patients were simply infected, and 201 (35.58%) patients were mixed infected. A total of 1 010 strains of pathogenic bacteria were detected in 719 patients, including 447 (44.26%) Gram-positive bacteria, 548 (54.26%) Gram-negative bacteria, and 15 (1.48%) fungi. There was a significant difference in the distribution of pathogenic microorganisms between patients with acute wounds and chronic wounds ( χ2=12.215, P<0.01). In this group of patients, the common strains of wounds were Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and so on. The common strains of patients with acute wounds were Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus epidermidis, and so on. The common strains of patients with chronic wounds were Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia colis, and so on. (3) The patients in this group were mainly treated by surgery. Finally, 1 330 patients were cured, 1 393 patients were improved, 257 patients were not cured, and 17 patients died. There was a significant difference in the distribution of outcome in patients with acute wounds and chronic wounds ( Z=-7.622, P<0.01). (4) The main types of payment of medical expenses for patients in this group were local medical insurance, remote medical insurance, and self-paying. The total hospitalization cost of patients in this group was 169 268 523.65 yuan, which was mainly consist of the costs of materials and drugs. The hospital day of patients in this group was 21.00 (11.00, 36.00) d, and the hospitalization cost was 30 016.34 (14 439.41, 63 685.60) yuan. There were significant differences in the hospital day and hospitalization cost among patients with different medical payment types ( χ2=285.986, 327.436, P<0.01). There were significant differences in the hospital day and hospitalization cost among patients with different wound types ( χ2=125.912, 131.485, P<0.01). Conclusions:The patients with skin and soft tissue injuries are mainly middle-aged and elderly patients, with more males than females, more chronic wounds than acute wounds. Skin and soft tissue injuries are prone to occur in sites with prominent bone, thin subcutaneous fat, and poor blood supply. The result of wound microbiological culture is mainly Gram-negative bacteria, and the positive rate of wound microbiological culture of patients with chronic wounds is higher than that of patients with acute wounds. The proportion of Gram-positive bacterial infection ranks the highest in patients with acute wounds. The proportion of Gram-negative bacterial infection ranks the highest in patients with chronic wounds. Patients with chronic wounds are often complicated with various underlying diseases, and the course of disease is long, so the constituent ratio of cured patients is lower than that of patients with acute wounds. Patients with skin and soft tissue injuries have long hospital days and high proportion of material cost, which are directly related to the clinical characteristics and long treatment cycle of chronic wounds. Therefore, it is suggested that the medical insurance administration department should adjust the consumption ratio and other management indicators according to the actual clinical needs of elderly patients with chronic wounds.

Objective:To investigate the pain status in diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) patients and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:A single-center cross-sectional survey research method was used. From May 2021 to February 2022, DFU patients who were admitted to the Fourth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital and met the inclusion criteria were selected and investigated. The scores of the heaviest pain, the least pain, the average pain, and the current pain in pain degree and the total score and the scores of influence on patients' daily life, mood, walking ability, daily work, relationship with others, sleep, and life interest in pain-related effects and the total score of patients were evaluated by the brief pain inventory. A self-designed general data questionnaire was used to collect the data including patients' gender, age, education level, body mass index, self-care ability, diabetes course, wound Wagner grade, bacterial culture result of wound specimen, and the levels of glycated hemoglobin, albumin, prealbumin, hemoglobin, and leukocyte count. Patients were classified according to general data, and the total scores of pain degree and pain-related effects were counted. Data were statistically analyzed with Kruskal-Wallis test and Mann-Whitney U test. The indicators with statistically significant differences in univariate analysis were selected for generalized linear model analysis to screen the independent risk factors of pain severity and pain-related effects in DFU patients. Results:A total of 44 questionnaires were sent out, and 42 valid questionnaires were collected, with effective recovery of 95.45%. The scores of the heaviest pain, the least pain, the average pain, and the current pain in DFU patients were 5 (0, 10), 2 (0, 6), 3 (0, 8), and 2 (0, 8), respectively, and the total score of the pain severity was 11 (0, 24); the scores of pain-related effects on patients' daily life, mood, walking ability, daily work, relationship with others, sleep, and life interest were 4 (0, 10), 4 (0, 10), 5 (0, 10), 5 (0, 10), 3 (0, 10), 4 (0, 10), and 4 (0, 10), respectively, and the total score of pain-related effects was 30 (0, 63). In 42 DFU patients, most patients were male, aged 39-87 (67±10) years, most patients had education level of junior high school, most patients had diabetes for more than 20 years, half of patients' wounds were Wagner grade 4, most patients had body mass index and leukocyte count within normal limits, most patients had partial dependence on self-care ability, the bacterial culture results of wound specimen in the vast majority of patients were positive, about half of the patients had abnormal level of albumin, and most patients had abnormal levels of glycosylated hemoglobin, prealbumin, and hemoglobin. Univariate analysis of the above general data showed that total scores of pain severity among patients with different hemoglobin levels and leukocyte counts were statistically significant different (with Z values of -2.05 and -2.55, respectively, P<0.05), and the total scores of pain-related effects on patients with different hemoglobin levels, leukocyte counts, and bacterial culture results of wound specimen were statistically significant different (with Z values of -2.66, -2.02, and -2.12, respectively, P<0.05). Generalized linear model analysis showed that leukocyte count was an independent risk factor for pain severity and pain-related effects in 42 DFU patients (with 95% confidence intervals of 0.28-11.87 and 5.67-36.99, respectively, standardized regression coefficient values of 6.17 and 21.33, respectively, both P values <0.05). The bacterial culture result of wound specimen was an independent risk factor for pain-related effects in 42 DFU patients (with 95% confidence interval of 2.92-39.09, standardized regression coefficient value of 21.00, P<0.05). Conclusions:DFU patients often suffer pain, and the bacterial culture results of wound specimen and leukocyte count are the main factors affecting the pain of DFU patients.

OBJECTIVE To systematically review the efficacy and safety of tranexamic acid （TXA） for hemostasis in cancer patients before and during surgery， and to provide evidence-based reference for clinical drug use. METHODS Retrieved from PubMed， Embase， the Cochrane Library， CNKI， VIP and Wanfang databases， randomized controlled trials （RCTs） about tranexamic acid （trial group） versus 0.9% Sodium chloride injection， Lactated Ringer’s solution， Compound electrolyte solution or placebo （control group） for cancer surgery were electronically searched from the inception to June 9， 2022. After literature screening and data extraction， the quality of included RCTs were evaluated by bias risk assessment tool recommended by Cochrane system evaluator manual 5.1.0. RevMan 5.3 software was used for meta-analysis or descriptive analysis， sensitivity analysis and publication bias analysis. RESULTS A total of 2 032 patients in 22 RCTs were included for meta-analysis. Results of meta-analysis showed that the blood transfusion rate [RR＝0.59， 95%CI （0.50， 0.69）， P＜0.000 01] and the volume of erythrocyte suspension infusion [MD＝－0.53， 95%CI （－0.92， －0.14）， P＝0.007] in trial group were significantly lower than control group； there was no statistical significance in the incidence of thromboembolic events [RR＝0.44， 95%CI （0.16， 1.17）， P＝0.10] or post-operative mortality [RR＝1.27， 95%CI（0.32，5.08）， P＝0.73] between two groups. Results of descriptive analysis showed that the total blood loss and postoperative drainage volume were still controversial between two groups. The results of sensitivity analysis showed that the results were basically stable. The results of publication bias analysis showed that there was little possibility of publication bias in this study. CONCLUSIONS TXA can significantly decrease the blood transfusion， reduce the volume of erythrocyte suspension infusion， whereas does not increase the incidence of thromboembolic events and post-operative mortality in cancer surgery.

Objective: To investigate the effects of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) combined with polylactic acid/polycaprolactone (PLA/PCL) on healing of mininature pig deep soft tissue defect caused by fragment injury. Methods: Two male Bama miniature pigs with 11 to 12 months (the same below) were selected by lottery to prepare PRP. The other twenty-seven male Bama miniature pigs were used to reproduce deep soft tissue defect caused by high-explosive ammunition fragment injury on bilateral posterior femoral region. According to the random number table, 27 pigs were divided into control group, material group, and PRP+material group, with 9 pigs in each group. After debridement, wounds of pigs in material group and PRP+material group were filled with PLA/PCL and PLA/PCL+2 mL activated PRP, respectively. Pigs in each group received suture of full-thickness skin to close the wounds. The operative duration was recorded. The length and volume of wounds of pigs in the above groups were measured immediately after surgery. In 1, 2, and 4 weeks after surgery, 3 pigs in each group were sacrificed to collect femoral wounds tissue on two sides, and PLA/PCL were collected from wounds of pigs in material group and PRP+material group for general observation of wounds tissue and degradation of the material. In 2 and 4 weeks after surgery, wounds tissue was obtained to observe the histological changes by hematoxylin-eosin staining, and expressions of transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and angiogenesis were determined by immunohistochemical method. In 1, 2, and 4 weeks after surgery, wounds tissue was collected to determine mRNA expressions of TGF-β and VEGF by real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Data were processed with analysis of variance of factorial design, one-way analysis of variance, and least significant difference-t test. Results: (1) There were no significantly statistical differences in length and volume of the wounds of pigs among the three groups (F=0.336, 0.282, P>0.05). The operative duration in control group [(30.9±2.1)min] was significantly shorter than that of material group [(39.7±2.2)min] and PRP+material group[(40.0±2.6)min], t=-11.45, -11.88, P<0.01. (2) There were respectively 10, 7, and 5 wounds tissue with infection in pigs of control group, material group, and PRP+material group. In 1, 2, 4 weeks after surgery, all of the wounds tissue of pigs was infected in control group, while none of wounds tissue of pigs was infected in material group and PRP+material group. In pigs of material group and PRP+material group, materials and tissue were easily separated in 1 week after surgery; some materials were integrated with tissue and showed a tendency of degradation in 2 weeks after surgery; materials were completely embedded with tissue in 4 weeks after surgery. (3) In pigs of control group, erythrocytes and inflammatory cells infiltration in wounds tissue were observed in 2 weeks after surgery, and necrotic tissue and inflammatory cells infiltration in wounds tissue were still observed in 4 weeks after surgery. In pigs of material group and PRP+material group, a large number of erythrocytes and inflammatory cells infiltration were observed in 2 weeks after surgery. Compared with that of material group, wounds tissue of pigs in PRP+material group had no inflammatory cells infiltration in 4 weeks after surgery. (4) Protein expressions of TGF-β in fibroblasts and multinuclear macrophagocytes, VEGF in fibroblasts and vascular endothelial cells, and blood vessel formation in wounds tissue of pigs in PRP+material group were significantly more than those of pigs in control group and material group in 2 and 4 weeks after surgery. (5) The mRNA expression of TGF-β in wounds tissue of pigs in material group was significantly higher than that in control group in 4 weeks after surgery (t=-3.93, P<0.01). Compared with those of pigs in control group and material group, the mRNA expression of TGF-β in wounds tissue of pigs in PRP+material group was significantly increased at each time point (t=9.23, 13.81, 11.73, -7.51, -12.04, -7.80, P<0.01). The mRNA expression of VEGF in wounds tissue of pigs increased significantly in material group compared with that of pigs in control group in 4 weeks after surgery (t=-3.94, P<0.01). Compared with those of pigs in control group and material group, the mRNA expression of VEGF in wounds tissue increased significantly in wound tissue of pigs in PRP+material group at each time point (t=12.33, 3.95, 7.97, -11.36, -2.97, -4.04, P<0.01). Conclusions PRP combined with PLA/PCL can accelerate wound healing of deep soft tissue defect of mininature pigs caused by fragment injury by providing physical scaffold for newborn tissue growth, promoting mRNA and protein expressions of TGF-β and VEGF.
