Objective:To explore the relationship among the supratrochlear and supraorbital neurovascular bundles and the corrugator muscle, in order to provide anatomical basis for eyebrow operations.Methods:From July to October 2019, the upper eyelids and forehead of 10 adult skull specimens (20 sides) were dissected layer by layer in the anatomy laboratory of Weifang Medical College. The line of bilateral inner canthus was taken as the X-axis and the facial midline as the Y-axis to establish the coordinate system. The coordinate parameters of supratrochlear nerve, supratrochlear artery, medial branch of supraorbital nerve, lateral branch of supraorbital nerve and supraorbital artery were measured to obtain the range of its trajectory, and their level and their adjacent relationship with the corrugator muscle were observed.Results:The corrugator muscle started from the upper part of the nasal process of the frontal bone near the medial margin of the orbit and was (4.32±0.98) mm from the midline. The base of the corrugator muscle start was (9.91±1.41) mm wide. The corrugator muscle run obliquely upward, through orbicularis oculi muscle and frontal muscle, and stopped at subcutaneous of the outer 1/3 of eyebrow. The trapezoid area was composed of the line of 15 mm above the inner canthus line, (16.58±1.70) mm and (16.17±1.42) mm from the facial midline as the lower base and the line of 30 mm above the inner canthus line, (13.74±1.54) mm and (14.21±2.42) mm from the facial midline, which was the dangerous area for the supratrochlear neurovascular bundles walking in corrugator muscle. The trapezoid area was composed of the line of 22.5 mm above the inner canthus line, (26.03±1.55) mm and (28.11±2.46) mm from the facial midline as the lower base and the line of 40 mm above the inner canthus line, (31.23±3.19) mm and (38.20±2.94) mm from the facial midline, which was the dangerous area for the supraorbital neurovascular bundles.Conclusions:Familiar with the relationship among the supratrochlear and supraorbital neurovascular bundle and the corrugator muscle can avoid dangerous areas and reduce superficial and deep neurovascular injury during operation.

The aim of the study is to evaluate the effects of the single and mixed decoction of Thallus laminariae (kelp) and Glycyrrhiza glabra (licorice) on the metabolism and their difference. The mixed decoction of kelp and licorice and the single decoction were made and intragastrically administered to the SD rats. The effect on system metabolism, the toxicity of liver and kidney were assessed by GC-MS profiling of the endogenous molecules in serum, routine biochemical assays and histographic inspection of tissues from SD rats, separately. The mixed decoction of kelp and licorice induced more obvious pathological abnormalities in SD rats than a single decoction of kelp, while the extracts of licorice did not show any pathological change. Neither the mixed, nor the single decoction showed abnormal histopathology. After intragastric administration of extracts for 5 days, the mixed decoction induced a decrease of ALT (no significant change in the groups of single decoction) and an increase of BUN (so did the single decoction of kelp). Metabolomic profile of the molecules in serum revealed that the metabolic patterns were all obviously affected for the three groups, i.e., the mixed and single decoction of kelp and licorice. The rats given with the single decoction of kelp showed a similar pattern to that of the mixed decoction, indicating that the kelp primarily contributed the perturbation of metabolism for the mixed decoction. All three groups induced a decrease of branched chain amino acids, TCA cycle intermediates and glycolysis intermediates (e.g., pyruvic acid and lactic acid) and an increase of 3-hydroxybutyric acid. Kelp decoction showed stronger potential in reducing TCA cycle intermediates and glycolysis intermediates than the other two groups, while the levels of branched chain amino acids were the lowest after licorice extracts were given. These results suggested that the effect of the mixed decoction on metabolism was closely associated with both kelp and licorice. The continuous administration of single decoction of kelp and the mixed decoction of licorice and kelp resulted in pathological abnormalities in kidney of SD rats. The mixed decoction of kelp and licorice distinctly perturbed sera molecules and hence system metabolism, which showed associated with those of kelp and licorice. Although the metabolic effect was associated with both kelp and licorice, the results suggested kelp contributed to it primarily.

Objective:To explore the effect of intravascular sodium nitroprusside (SNP) combined with hyaluronidase (HAase) plus urokinase (UK) in treating rat abdominal wall skin flap ischemia caused by HA induced artery embolism, and to compare the difference between thrombolysis with and without addition of sodium nitroprusside.Methods:Forty male Sprague-Dawley rats were injected with 10 μl of hyaluronic acid (HA) into the left inferior epigastric arteries, constructing the superficial epigastricl artery skin flap ischemic model in rats. The rats were randomly divided into four groups: a control group, and experimental groups A, B and C. Control and experimental groups A, B and C were treated with the following solutions 45 minutes after hyaluronic acid injection: physiological saline plus glucose was injected into the rats (control group); hyaluronidase (HAase) plus glucose injection was injected into the rats (experimental group A), hyaluronidase (HAase) plus urokinase (UK) was injected into the rats (experimental group B), hyaluronidase (HAase), urokinase (UK) plus sodium nitroprusside were injected into the rats (experimental group C). The changes of flaps were observed at 0 min, 3 days, 5 days and 7 days after operation. The difference of the area percentage of unperfused flap in the four groups was compared 7 days after operation. This study was carried out from July 2020 to March 2021 in the Medical Laboratory Animal Center of Weifang Medical University.Results:The unperfused area of flaps for the control group, experimental groups A, B and C were (100.00±0.00) %, (44.68±7.90)%, (34.01±8.77)% and (24.12±4.58)%, respectively. In the experimental group C, the scabby necrosis area was smaller than that of the experimental group A ( P<0.05); in the experimental group C, the scabby necrosis area was smaller than that of the experimental group B ( P<0.05); in the experimental group B, the scabby necrosis area was smaller than that of the experimental group A ( P<0.05). HE staining revealed that size and density of the embolus was significantly decreased after the addition of sodium nitroprusside. Conclusions:Sodium nitroprusside combined with hyaluronidase and urokinase can effectively improve the ischemia of the flap caused by HA induced artery embolism, increase the tissue perfusion, and reduce the necrotic area of the flap.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of continuous intravenous injection of hyaluronidase (HAase) combined with urokinase (UK) in the treatment of ischemia of hyaluronic acid (HA) arterial embolized skin flap.Methods:(1)Establish an animal model of superficial abdominal artery embolization with HA: 24 SD rats were used to make a square island flap (2 cm×2 cm, the width of the pedicle is 2 mm) on the left and right sides of the abdominal white line with superficial epigastric artery as feeding artery. The left and right flaps of rats were used as experimental group and control group. After the preparation of the experimental skin flap, HA 10 μl was injected into the superficial abdominal artery, while the self-control flap was only made and the vessels were peeled off without embolization.(2)The rats were randomly divided into A, B, C and D groups by drawing lots with 6 rats in each group, After the successful establishment of embolic animal model of 45 min, HAase(2 000 IU/kg)+ UK(50 000 IU/kg), HAase(2 000 IU/kg), UK(50 000 IU/kg) and normal saline were continuously infused through caudal vein with microinjection pump. The volume of solution in each group was 6 ml in 12 minutes. The general condition of rats and the skin color, edema, congestion and skin necrosis in the operation area of rats were observed, which were photographed and compared immediately, and at 3 days, 5 days and 7 days after embolization. The images were analyzed by Photoshop software, and the percentage of survival area of the flap after operation 7 days, was measured by pixel method. The percentage of survival area was compared by single factor analysis of variance (ANOVA) and head-to-head comparison by LSD- t test. Results:Immediately after operation, all the flaps in the four groups were pale and there was no obvious swelling. All the flaps showed different degrees of swelling within 3 days after operation, and the swelling basically disappeared within 3-5 days after operation, and gradually changed from dark red ecchymosis to dark purple or black. Seven days after operation, the necrotic area flap gradually hardened and its boundary was obvious. The skin flaps of the 4 groups showed different degrees of necrosis. The postoperative reaction of the flap was the slightest in group A, the performance of group B and C was similar, which were both between group A and group D, and there was the heaviest postoperative reaction in group D. At 7 days after operation, the percentage of survival area of flaps in groups A, B, C and D was 90.30%±5.95%, 52.63%±6.90%, 51.14%±5.95% and 7.70%±2.18%, respectively. The percentage of survival area of skin flap in group A was significantly higher than that in groups B, C and D (analysis of ANOVA: P<0.01; LSD- t test: P<0.01). Conclusions:Continuous intravenous infusion of HAase combined with UK can effectively alleviate the flap ischemia caused by HA artery embolism, increase tissue perfusion and increase the survival area of the flap.

【Objective】 To develop an assay to determine β-lactam antibiotics using microcolumn gels and to study the β-lactam antibiotics present in the blood of patients and their clinical significances. 【Methods】 446 patients with a history of taking β-lactam antibiotics from January 2019 to June 2019 were randomly selected from Trauma Emergency Center, Department of Arthrosis, Department of Spine and Department of Bone Oncology of our hospital, and 4 mL(per capita) venous blood was collected. Irregular antibody screening, anti-globulin detection and drug antibody determination were performed by microcolumn gel method. The data of gender, age, disease, blood transfusion history and medication were collected. The test results and clinical data were retrospective analyzed. 【Results】 The yielding rate of antibody was 0.45%(2/446) in patients with a history of taking β -lactam antibiotics. 16.38%(73/446) of the samples were positive in direct antiglobulin test, and 64.38%(47/73) of them did not agglutinate with RBCs treated with drugs. The yielding rate of specific antibodies against drug was 4.93%(22/446), and the titer ranged from 2 to 128(8). 1 case of auto-IgM antibody, 1 case of blood group related antibody and 2 cases of non-specific protein adsorption were detected. The yielding rate of drug antibody in patients with blood transfusion history reached to 12.10 %(22/124), so it was also high in patients with bone tumor. 【Conclusion】 Direct antiglobulin assay is helpful for the detection of β-lactam antibodies. The negative results of antibody screening cannot completely exclude the presence of drug antibodies. The yielding rate of drug antibody can be greatly improved by specific drug antibody detection, and it was higher in transfused patients relative to non-transfused one.

In July 2024, the National Healthcare Security Administration issued "Notice on Printing and Distributing the 2.0 Edition Grouping Scheme for Diagnosis Related Group(DRG) and Disease-based Payment and Further Advancing Related Work, " marking the official entry of China's DRG payment reform into the 2.0 era. In the 2.0 edition of the DRG grouping scheme, the number of DRGs has increased by six groups, and that of the adjacent DRGs has increased by 33 groups, featuring more scientific and reasonable grouping that aligns better with clinical practice. The National Healthcare Security Administration has also clarified five supporting management mechanisms, including the special case negotiation mechanism, the fund prepayment mechanism, the negotiation and consultation mechanism, the feedback mechanism for opinion collection, and the data disclosure mechanism. These are aimed at optimizing the management of DRG payment reform to ensure a win-win situation for medical institutions, healthcare security departments, and patients. The release of the DRG 2.0 edition provides medical institutions with more refined management tools and a more reasonable paymentmechanism. Medical institutions need to actively embrace this reform, optimize internal management, and improve service quality to achieve cost control and efficiency enhancement, ultimately leading to a win-win situation for patients, healthcare security funds, and medical institutions.

To analyze the disease group structure and its trends in key departments of large public hospitals using diagnosis related group (DRG) data, explore the key points of intervention and optimization of disease groups in departments, and further promote the rational allocation of department resources. We retrospectively collected DRG data from two surgical departments in a large public hospital in Beijing from 2017 to 2023. When the case mix index (CMI) of the two surgical departments declined, interventions such as performance appraisal, department education, and hospital publicity were promptly adopted. The changesin CMI values were observed and the trends in disease group weights, time consumption index, cost consumption index, and mortality rate in low-risk groups were analyzed. After the interventions, in surgical department Ⅰ, the proportion of patients with lower-weight diseases, such as major thyroid surgery (KD1), significantly decreased, while that of patients with higher-weight diseases, such as colorectal malignancy surgery (GB2) and pancreatic malignancy surgery (HB1), significantly increased. In surgical department Ⅱ, the proportion of patients with lower-weight diseases, such as chemotherapy (RE1), decreased markedly, while that of patients with higher-weight diseases, including major surgery for malignancy of kidney, ureter, and bladder (LA1), adrenal gland surgery (KC1), surgery for kidney/ureter/bladder except for major malignancy surgery (LB1), and male genital organ malignancy surgery (MA1), increased significantly. Both surgical departments achieved the goal of increasing their CMI values. In terms of efficiency, cost, and quality indicators, the time consumption index and cost consumption index of the two surgical departments were significantly lower than 1, and the mortality rate in low-risk groups was 0. Based on actual conditions and development goals, large public hospitals can achieve improvements in CMI values and optimization of disease group structures through reasonable interventions, thereby enhancing medical efficiency and rational utilization of resources.
