Objective: To investigate the hospital employee satisfaction and trustworthiness in the background of the trusteeship mode and to find out the problems after trusteeship.Methods: Minnesota satisfaction questionnaire (MSQ) and the self-made questionnaire were used to conduct the survey.Results: The overall employee satisfaction (3.80±0.86) and trustworthiness (3.95±0.77)were higher.The highest level of trustworthiness concerned the cultural connotation (84.8%) followed by the management concept (82.8%) for overall satisfaction.The lowest level of employee satisfaction concerned income and workload (53.7%), followed by the working conditions and environment (55.3%).The administrative staff satisfaction was higher compared to that of medical staff (p=0.001), which showed significant statistical differences.Conclusions: The hospital has made some achievements after the trusteeship system reform, however, it still needs improvement and further strengthening in many aspects.The hospital must always keep abreast of the demands of workforce and improve the staff satisfaction so as to promote its continuous and sustainable development.

Objective:To investigate the therapeutic effect of modified sural neuro-fasciocutaneous perforator flap in reconstruction of foot and ankle soft tissue defects.Methods:Sixteen patients undergoing the modified flap for foot and ankle reconstruction were included in this study between June, 2016 and June, 2018. The 16 patients were 11 males and 5 females with an average age of 32.5 (range 21 to 51) years. Ten defects were in heel and 6 in ankle and dorsal side of foot. A "Z" -shape skin incision was performed to explore the perforator vessels. A peroneal-based perforator, a superficial vein, and the vascular axis of the sural nerve were included in the pedicle. A relaying island perforator flap was used to close the donor site without skin graft. Follow-up was carried out through outpatient service, telephone follow-up and Wechat photo transmission.Results:The patients were followed-up for 12 to 18 months. All flaps survived completely without complications. The colour, texture and apperance of the flaps were good. The area of the flaps ranged from 12 cm×5 cm to 30 cm×15 cm. The diameter of the pedicle ranged from 1 to 2 cm. No complication occurred in the donor sites. A relaying perforator island flaps were used in 10 cases for donor site closure and without a skin graft. All cases were satisfied with appearance and function at the final followed-up.Conclusion:It is possible to use the modified sural neuro-fasciocutaneous perforator flap to repair foot and ankle soft tissue defects. A relaying island perforator flap can be used as a relaying flap to cover the donor site without skin graft.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effect of the modified transfer of the proximal interphalangeal joint (PIPJ) from the second toe in the treatment of a finger PIPJ defect.Methods:A total of 13 patients with finger PIPJ defects caused by traumatic injury were enrolled from May, 2017 to March, 2020. All the PIPJ defects had primary traumatic repairs. The causes of injury: 5 patients were caused by strangulation, 4 by chainsaw, 2 by strangulation and 2 by crushing. Of which, 7 patients had index finger injury, 3 middle fingers and 3 ring fingers. The operations were carried out 3-7 months after the first stage of treatment. The grafting of the PIPJ of the second toe with modified vascular anastomosis were performed. The ipsilateral second toe was taken in 10 patients, and the contralateral second toe in 3 patients. The grafted joints all carried observation skin islands, with an area of 1.0 cm×1.5 cm-1.0 cm×2.0 cm. All the secondary bone defects in the donor site of the toe were reconstructed with iliac bone grafts, and the length of the iliac bone strips was 4.0-6.0 cm. At the same time, the island flap on the fibular side of the great toe was removed and repaired at the donor site, with an area of 1.1 cm×1.6 cm - 1.1 cm×2.1 cm. Early postoperative rehabilitation was performed. The patients were followed-up through outpatient visits, telephone and WeChat interviews.Results:All the 13 finger PIPJ and donor site island flaps survived. Bone healing were observed in all patients with the healing time in 8-12(average 10) weeks. Three patients with severe adhesion of joint and tendon were treated with secondary release. All the patients were followed-up for 10 - 18 months without degeneration of PIPJ. Active range of motion of PIPJ ranged: 45°-90° in flexion and 0°-10° in extension, the average motion activity was 66.3°. Seven patients were in excellent, 4 in good and 2 in fair, according to the function assessment proposed by the Society of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association. The appearance on donor site was good and the walking was normal in the longterm follow-up. Only one linear scar was left in the ilioinguinal donor site without obvious discomfort.Conclusion:It was possible to use the modified transfer of the PIPJ from the second toe in the treatment of a finger PIPJ defect. An iliac bone graft and an island flap of the first toe transfer can preserve the appearance and function of the toes.

Objective:To scientifically measure and morphologically evaluate the anatomical shape of the skin in the first web space based on cadavers, and to guide the design of flap in this area.Methods:Sixteen human cadavers fixed with 10% formaldehyde without injury or deformity on the hand were selected in the Department of Hand Surgery, the Third Hospital of Suqian. According to the characteristics of the first web area, marker points were selected for measurement and morphological observation. Morphological characteristics of the first web with thumb radial abduction(r) or palmar abduction(p) were measured and compared. The t-test was used for statistical analysis. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. According to the results of measurement, standardised shapes and parameters of the skin were obtained for flap repair of defect of the first web. Results:When the thumb was in palmar abduction, the maximum distance [a(p)] of the first web of female(F) and male(M) was 5.78/8.42 cm(F/M), and the skin [S(p)] was 17.09/23.63 cm 2(F/M), both were significantly greater than the distance [a(r)] at 4.86/6.28 cm and the area of skin area [S(r)] at 14.39/20.15 cm 2 when thumb was in the radial abduction position( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the length of [b(r)] and [b(p)] alone the long axis of flap between palmar and radial abductions(7.54/9.38 cm and 7.34/9.74 cm, respectively) of the thumb( P>0.05). It was found that the area of first web was not shaped as a symmetrical spindle, but an irregular quadrilateral inclined to the index finger. Conclusion:Design and measurement of a flap for the first web space should take the maximum palmar abduction of a thumb as a reference. The asymmetric quadrilateral flap design is more in line with the anatomical and characteristics in the region.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of the relaying perforator flap for repairing the donor site of the anterolateral thigh flap.Methods:From March 2019 to June 2020, 28 consecutive patients who underwent anterolateral thigh free flap reconstruction for limb soft tissue defects were retrospectively reviewed. A relaying perforator flap was selected from one of the four areas adjacent to the donor site of the anterolateral thigh flap for covering the donor site of the anterolateral thigh flap. The secondary donor site was closed directly. The followed-up contents included the appearance and texture of the flaps. The postoperative followed-up was performed through outpatient visits, telephone, and WeChat interviews.Results:A total of 28 patients were included, with an average age of 37.3 (ranging from 15 to 65). The relaying perforator flap was selected from the anteromedial thigh region ( n=13), the proximal anterolateral thigh region( n=6), the distal anterolateral thigh region ( n=5), and the ilioinguinal region ( n=4). The size of the anterolateral thigh flap ranged from 12.0 cm×10.0 cm to 20.0 cm×13.0 cm, and the size of the relaying perforator flap ranged from 6.0 cm×5.0 cm to 11.0 cm×7.5 cm. The followed-up time ranged from 1 to 6 months (mean 4.8 months). The color, texture, and contour of the flaps were good. Only one linear scar is left in the donor site. Two cases with small necrosis (1.0 cm×2.0 cm and 1.5 cm×1.5 cm, respectively) were found in the distal edge of relaying perforator flaps. Conclusions:The relaying perforator flap is considered as an optimized and reliable method for repairing the donor site of an anterolateral thigh flap and should be recommended.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the damage mechanism of pathogenic E.coli on mouse brain microvascular endothelial cells(BMEC cells)and mouse alveolar macrophages(MH-S cells),as well as the lung and brain of healthy mice.In this study,BMEC cells and MH-S cells were infected with pathogenic E.coli strains,and cell morphological changes were observed.Plate counting method was used to detect the adhesion and invasion ability of the strains to cells and the number of bacteria in the lungs and brains of mice.RT-qPCR was used to detect the ex-pression of TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-6 genes in cells and mouse organs at different time periods.West-ern blot was used to detect the expression of p-NF-κB,p-JAK2 and p-STAT3 proteins related to inflammation in cells and mouse organs after infection.The results showed that the cell culture medium of the infection group was turbid,the cell vision became dark and blurred,some cells shrank and died,and more fragments were produced.The adhesion rate and invasion rate of BMEC cells at 3 h were significantly lower than those at 6 h(P＜0.050),and the adhesion rate and inva-sion rate of MH-S cells at 3 h were significantly higher than those at 6 h(P＜0.010).Infected mice had a large area of swelling and bleeding in the brain,and the lungs had different degrees of swell-ing and bleeding.The bacterial load in the brain and lung was the highest at 12 h.Compared with the control group,the mRNA expression levels of IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α in the infection group were significantly increased at 3 h and 6 h(P＜0.050),and the mRNA expression levels of inflam-matory factors in BMEC cells and MH-S cells were the highest at 6 and 3 h,respectively.The mR-NA expression of inflammatory factors in the brain and lung of infected mice showed a trend of in-creasing first and then decreasing with time,with the highest expression at 12 h after infection.The expression levels of p-NF-κB protein in BMEC cells,MH-S cells,lung and brain tissues of mice in the infection group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P＜0.001),and the expression levels of p-JAK2 protein and p-STAT3 protein were significantly lower than those in the control group(P＜0.050).The above results showed that pathogenic E.coli could adhere and invade BMEC cells and MH-S cells,colonize in lung and brain tissues of mice,promote the expres-sion of NF-κB protein in cells and tissues,inhibit the expression of JAK2 protein and STAT3 pro-tein,and then stimulate cells and tissues to produce inflammatory response.

OBJECTIVE：To evaluate th e effectiveness ，safety and economy of albu min-bound paclitaxel （nab-PTX）in the treatment of breast cancer by using rapid health technology assessment （HTA），and to provide evidence-based reference for drug selection. METHODS ：Retrieved from PubMed ，the Cochrane Library ，CNKI，Wangfang database and other databases ，systematic evaluation/Meta-analysis，HTA and pharmacoeconomic studies about nab-PTX in the treatment of breast cancer were included ；the conclusions were classified and analyzed by using descriptive analysis. RESULTS ：A total of 5 systematic reviews/Meta-analysis ， 8 pharmacoeconomic studies were included in this study. Compared with conventional taxanes ，nab-PTX increased pathological complete response （pCR）rate [OR ＝1.39，95％CI（1.16，1.67），P＜0.001] and event-free survival （EFS）[HR＝0.69，95％CI（0.57， 0.85），P＜0.001] in neoadjuvant chemotherapy （NAC）-treated breast cancer patients. However ，there were no significant differences in overall survival （OS），progression-free survival （PFS），objective response rate （ORR）and disease control rate （DCR）in metastatic breast cancer （MBC）patients between 2 groups. In the terms of safety ，nab-PTX increased the incidence of grade 3-4 sensory neuropathy [OR ＝1.89，95％CI（1.36，2.61），P＜0.001] in MBC patients ，and increased the incidence of neutropenia [OR ＝ 1.52，95％CI（1.23，1.88，P＜0.001]，sensory neuropathy [OR ＝ 2.17，95％CI（1.38，3.40），P＜0.001]，rash [OR ＝1.46，95％CI mei1213@163.com （1.18，1.80），P＜0.001] and fatigue [OR ＝1.28，95％CI（1.04， 1.56）， P＝0.02] in NAC -treated breast cancer patients.Pharmacoeconomic studies showed that nab-PTX could improve the quality adjusted lif e years of MBC patients compared with traditional taxanes ，and it was a economical option. CONCLUSIONS：Nab-PTX enhances pCR in NAC-treated breast cancer patients ，but has no significant advantage in the effectiveness of MBC patients ，and increases the occurrence of ADR. Nab-PTX may have a cost-utility advantage over conventional taxanes for MBC.
