Objective: To explore the effect of applying the digital technology in the reconstruction of congenital microtia. Methods: CT data of 40 patients with congenital microtia were collected by using software (Mimics 17.01) and three-dimensional printing. And the three-dimensional reconstruction of costal cartilage and ear model was performed. The effectiveness and feasibility of the digital assisted technology in the reconstruction of congenital microtia could be established, by contrasting the pre-three-dimensional reconstruction and the morphology of the costal cartilage harvested during surgery and comparing the imaging data of the auricles before and after surgery. Results: 40 patients were satisfied with the appearance of the auricle after the restoration. The rib cartilage obtained during the operation was consistent with the preoperative data simulation. The trauma of the operation and the operation time were reduced. There was no statistically significant difference between both auricle length and width for the reconstructed ear and those of the normal ear, auricle length mean (62.10±6.82)mm vs (60.31±6.18)mm, auricle width mean (26.10±2.26)mm vs (25.40±2.32)mm, P>0.05, respectively. Conclusions The application of digital assisted technique in congenital microtia correction could accurately display the tissue structure of the operation area, which was helpful to preoperative design, reduce intraoperative injury and achieve satisfactory surgical result .

Objective: To explore procedure of the one-stage surgery with prolonged tissue expansion in microtia reconstruction and treatment of related complications. Methods: 211 patients had undergone the one-stage surgery of microtia reconstruction with prolonged tissue expansion in Department of Aesthetic Plastic and Maxillofacial Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi′an Jiaotong University from June 2016 to June 2017. A retrospective study of these data was conducted for standardization of surgical procedure, treatment of postoperative complications, improvement of the existing technology. Results: 211 patients had finished the follow-up, of which 10 had complications. The complications included 4 cases of hematomas, 3 cases of expander exposures, 2 infections, and disorder on blood supply of the flap with severe headache in 1 case. We removed hematoma by washing and drainage, repositioned the exposed expander by standard debridement surgery again, controlled infection by systemic or topical application of effective antibiotics, andrelieved severe headache by reducing injection volume. After these treatments, all the patients were able to undergo the next stage surgery of ear reconstruction. Conclusions Emphasizing standardization of surgical procedure, appropriate treatment of postoperative complications and improvement of tissue expansion was beneficial for performing the next stage surgery of ear reconstruction.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has been widely used in the treatment ofhypoxia,ischemia,and a series of diseases caused by hypoxia and ischemia.The treatment effect of HBOT on gliomas remains controversial.The presence of local hypoxia in gliomas is the main cause of tumor resistance to radiotherapy and chemotherapy;HBOT can improve the oxygen content in these areas,and thus,treatment should be as effective as other hypoxic diseases;however,most researchers believe that in the process of gliomas,the efficacy of HBOT alone is limited,and HBOT is usually not used alone.More commonly,HBOT is commonly used as adjuvant therapy in other treatments (such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy).Based on the above contents,we summarized as follows and put forward the views on the current debate.

Objective: To explore the effect of C1q / tumor necrosis factor-related protein 9 ( CTRP9 ) on the expression of genes and proteins related to lipid metabolism of brown adipose tissue (BAT) in mice after cold stimulation． Methods : C57BL /6J male mice were injected with adenovirus Ad-GFP (control group) or Ad-CTRP9 ( experience group) into the scapular region and kept for 7 days．After cold stimulation at 4 ℃ for 10 hours，the expression levels of BAT marker genes and proteins were detected by real time PCR and Western blot. Results: Overexpression of CTRP9 induced by cold stimulation significantly increased the mRNA level of iodothyronine deiodinase 2 (Dio2) in BAT (P＜0. 01) ．Additionally，there was no significant difference in the expression of BAT marker genes ( UCP-1，PGC-1 α , PRDM16 and ARβ3) ，and liposynthesis and lipolysis related genes (PPARγ , HSL and ATGL) ．Uncoupling protein 1 (UCP-1) protein expression was upregualted in Ad-CTRP9 compared to the Ad-GFP control group ，while the expression of lipolysis related protein adipose triglyceride lipase ( ATGL) decreased significantly (P＜0. 05) ． Conclusion In cold environment，overexpression of CTRP9 promotes the accumulation of UCP-1 protein in BAT，upregulates the expression of thyroid hormone signal related gene Dio2，and inhibits triglyceride hydrolysis to maintain a constant body temperature.

Objective To explore the effectiveness of the individualized surgical fixation for the treatment of mandibular fractures in children.Methods The individualized mandibular fixation methods were used to treat mandibular fractures in 85 children in Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery in Xijing Hospital from April 2010 to July 2015.Depending on the fracture types and 3D pre simulation with stress and tension band fixation,six methods of treatment were used,including titanium plate,titanium plate-dental arch bars,biodegradable plate-dentalarch bars,biodegradable plate-occlusal splint,occlusal splint,and anchorage devices.Postoperative occlusal relationship,mouth opening and masticatory function were evaluated.Results Fixation of titanium plate was used in 10 cases,titanium plate-dental arch bars in 25 cases,biodegradable plate-dentalarch bars in 20 cases,biodegradable plate-occlusal splint 15 cases,individualized occlusal splint in 3 cases and anchorage devices in 12 cases.The treatment outcomes were good in the combined methods of open reduction with personalized fixation for children with mandibular fractures,and the reduction was satisfactory.Occlusal relationship had a good recovery after operation.Eating and functional training started earlier in these pediatric patients after operation.Conclusions For pediatric mandibular fractures,open reduction and fixation with appropriate methods can lead to favorable anatomic morphology and occlusion relationship.The application of 3D imaging technology in analyzing the fracture and showing tooth germ in the jaw helps the improvement of surgical efficiency and avoidance of unwanted tooth germ injuries.Personalized dental arch bar and splint provide good strength for external fixation or assist fixation on strain band.

Objective To integrate the best available evidence of preoperative care for ophthalmic patients undergoing day surgery into clinical practice,so as to improve the quality of nursing.Methods This project was performed in an ophthalmic day surgery ward,guided by the Joanna Briggs Institute(JBI)Practice Application of Clinical Evidence System (PACES) program which includes 3 procedures:baseline audit,evidence implementation,and re-audit.Eight audit criteria were made based on evidences from JBI.Twelve nurses and 267 patients were enrolled in baseline audit,and 12 nurses and 234 patients were recruited for re-audit after evidence implementation.Results Six of the audit criteria that nurses showed poor compliance in the baseline audit(0％～28.5％),such as providing preoperative telephone screening and reducing preoperative waiting time through better preparation and planning,were significantly improved in the re-audit(71.43％～100％).The preoperative waiting time was shortened from 109.70±18.34 minutes to 88.22±9.91 minutes;the correct rates of operation-related knowledge in patients increased from 63.0％ to 85.09％;the patients' satisfaction scored 84.23±17.01 in baseline audit and 95.02±7.32 in the re-audit(P＜0.001).Conclusion Application of evidence-based preoperative care of ophthalmic patients undergoing day surgery can improve nurse's behavior and compliance with the implementation of evidence into clinical practice,and increase patient satisfaction.Continuous audits are needed to continuously improve clinical nursing quality.

Objective? To apply the evidence related to daytime surgery management and care into clinical practice, enhance the evidence-based compliance in perioperative management for daytime surgery in ophthalmology, and improve the quality of clinical nursing. Methods? Quality control indicators were developed based on the best existing evidence using the clinical evidence practice application of Joanna Briggs Institutions (JBI) from September 2017 to July 2018. Totally 39 nurses and 322 patients were included before the patients were transferred into the daytime ward, and 39 nurses and 345 patients enrolled after the patients were transferred into the daytime ward. The baseline was reviewed, the evidence was applied, and the effects were evaluated after the application of evidence. Results? The implementation rate of 10 quality control indicators after evidence application was improved by 35%-100%, including informational control of waiting time for surgery, intraoperative continuous support, and standardized discharge evaluation. Patients＇ waiting time for surgery was shortened from (178.70±18.34) min to (89.22±12.89) min; their surgical compatibility and discharge readiness were improved from (1.74±0.96) to (2.56±0.66) and from (89.88±11.15) to (94.02±12.96) respectively; their length of hospital stay was shortened from (336.11±29.65) min to (180.08±19.80) min, there were statistically significant differences between the two groups (P＜0.01). Conclusions? The use of the best evidence can improve perioperative management behavior for ophthalmological daytime surgery as well as the quality of clinical care in ophthalmology.

Objective: To explore the association between the frequency of prenatal care in childbearing aged women and risk of small for gestational age (SGA) among neonatal twins in Shaanxi Province. Methods: From July to December 2013, a total of 30 027 childbearing aged women, who were pregnant from January 2010 to November 2013 and had definite outcomes, were selected from 30 districts (counties) of Shaanxi Province by using the multi-stage random sampling method. The questionnaires with a face-to-face survey method were used to retrospectively collect demographic information, pregnancy history, lifestyle during pregnancy, disease history, nutritional supplements, and health care during pregnancy. Information on the gestational age and birth weight of the newborn were obtained by consulting the medical certificate of birth and were registered as twin A and twin B by birth order. Finally, 356 childbearing aged women and their twin babies with complete data were included in the analysis. A generalized estimation equation model was used to analyze the association between the frequency of prenatal care and the risk of SGA among neonatal twins. Results: The age of childbearing aged women was (27.44±4.68) years old, of which 79.49% (283 women) were rural residents and 44.38% (158 women) had seven or more times prenatal care. The gestational age and birth weight were (37.64±2.51) weeks and (2 510±497) g, respectively. The prevalence of SGA was 51.40% (183/356) for twin A and 53.37% (190/356) for twin B, respectively. The prevalence of SGA was 44.30% (70/158) for twin A with seven or more times prenatal care and 42.41% (67/158) for twin B with seven or more times prenatal care, which was lower than that for twins with less than seven times prenatal care, respectively [57.07% (113/198) and 62.12% (123/198)] (P values were 0.017 and <0.001). The results of generalized estimation equation model suggested that compared to those with less than seven times prenatal care, after adjusting for parity, birth order, place of residence, maternal age, occupation, education, family wealth index, passive smoking, pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome, folic acid, and iron supplement during perinatal period, and gender of the newborn, the OR (95%CI) of risk of SGA among childbearing aged women with seven or more times prenatal care was 0.60 (0.40-0.91). Conclusion Seven or more times prenatal care could reduce the risk of SGA among neonatal twins in Shanxi Province.
