Objective To investigate the effect of ReCell technique on diabetic foot and explore main nursing measures. Methods Forty patients with diabetic foot were divided into control group(n=20)and experiment group(n=20)according to admission time. With wound bed prepared, the control group received only free skin flap grafting and the observation group was managed with ReCell technique plus free skin flap grafting.The skin flap survival and treatment time in two groups were observed and compared. Result The skin flap survival in the experiment group was better than the control group and the treatment time was shorter. Conclusion ReCell technique is effective in raising the survival rate of skin flap in diabetic foot and shortening treatment time.The improvement of nursing measures is critical for the success of ReCell technique.

Aim To investigate the proliferative effect and the apoptosis of rat epididymal epithelial cells induced by podophyllotoxin and its underlying mechanisms.Methods Primary epididymal epithelial cells were cultured in vitro.CCK-8 assay was used to analyze proliferation of epididymal epithelial cells induced by podophyllotoxin on 24, 48 and 72 h.The ultra structural changes of the epididymal epithelial cells were observed by transmission electron microscope.AnnexinV-FITC/PI staining was used to quantify the percentages of apoptosis in the total cell population.The TdTmediated dUTP nick end labeling(TUNEL) technique was applied to observe the morphological changes of apoptotic cells.The expression of tumor necrosis factor alpha(TNF-α) mRNA was investigated by real-time RT-PCR.The level of TNF-α in cell culture supernatant was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) technology.Western blot was per-formed to determine the protein expression of cytochrome C, caspase-3, caspase-8, caspase-9.Results Podophyllotoxin significantly inhibited the activity of proliferation and induced apoptosis of epididymal epithelial cells in a dose-and time-dependent manner(P<0.05), with a 50％ inhibitory concentration(IC50) value and corresponding 95％ confidence intervals(CI) of 59.36(15.50～227.41), 0.37(0.080～1.70), 0.077(0.017～0.35) μmol·L-1 at 24, 48 and 72 h, respectively.Podophyllotoxin induced cell volume turned round and cell nuclear fragmentation and mitochondrial vacuolation.RT-PCR and ELISA results showed that podophyllotoxin improved the expression of TNF-α mRNA and protein.Western blot results demonstrated that podophyllotoxin activated the protein expression of cytochrome C, caspase-3, caspase-8 and caspase-9.Conclusion Podophyllotoxin can induce rat epididymal epithelial cell apoptosis through both the mitochondria-regulated intrinsic pathway and the TNF receptor-mediated extrinsic pathway.

Objective:To compare the clinical utility of mammography with automated breast ultrasound system (ABUS) for detecting breast lesions. Methods:Data of 142 patients with 149 breast lesions who underwent both mammography and ABUS in Tianjin Medi-cal University Cancer Institute and Hospital were collected from Jnly 2016 to September 2016. The detection rates of the two methods were then determined. Results:The overall detection rate using ABUS was significantly higher than that of mammography (mammog-raphy: 87.2% vs. ABUS: 98.0%, P<0.05). However, no significant difference was observed in breast cancer detection rates between mammography and ABUS (mammography:91.1%vs. ABUS:97.0%, P<0.05). Moreover, the benign lesion detection rate was significant-ly higher in ABUS than in mammography (mammography:79.2%, vs. ABUS:100%, P<0.05). In dense breasts, the detection rates of overall lesions, breast cancers, and benign lesions for ABUS were 97.7%, 96.5%, and 100.0%, respectively;whereas those for mammog-raphy were 86.0%, 90.6%, and 77.3%, respectively (P<0.05). Owing to overlapping dense breast tissue and deep anatomic location, sev-eral lesions were missed on mammography. Conversely, most lesions missed on ABUS presented as calcifications. Conclusion:Com-pared with mammography, ABUS can detect more lesions especially in dense breasts. However, ABUS failed to detect calcifications, whereas mammography had distinct advantages in this regard. Overall, the two methods had potential supplementary value for breast cancer screening.

OBJECTIVETo observe the protective effect of serum containing Tanyu Tongzhi formula (TYTZF) on ox-LDL-induced human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) injury and detect its mechanism on anti-artherosclerosis.

METHODHUVECs were pretreated with serum containing TYTZF and simvastatin respectively for 2 hours and then added with 100 mg x L(-1) of ox-LDL and laid aside for 24 hours. The activity of HUVECs were measured by the methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTF) method and the NO content in cell culture supernatants were examined by the Griess method. The mRNA levels of Cav-1 and eNOS were measured by the Real-time PCR method. The protein expression of Cav-1 and eNOS were detected by Western blotting.

RESULTThe activity of HUVECs was significantly decreased after ox-LDL treatment (P < 0.01) and this decrease was significantly inhibited by serum containing TYTZF and simvastatin of different doses (P < 0.05). They could enhance the NO content in cell culture supernatants, down-regulate the expression of Cav-1 and up-regulate the expression of eNOS at mRNA and protein levels, which was especially notable after treatment with serum containing TYTZF and simvastatin in large doses.

CONCLUSIONTYTZF has the protective effect on HUVECs by increasing the production of NO and up-regulating Cav-1 expression and down-regulating eNOS expression.

Objective To observe and investigate the effect of acute pain management team in the painless treatment of patients during the perioperative period of hand surgery. Methods A total of 90 patients from December 2013 to April 2014 who were undergoing hand surgery were selected, and they were randomly divided into control group ( routine pain intervention nursing group) with 45 cases and observation group ( acute pain management team intervention group ) with 45 cases. The pain evaluation results, pain control and prevention awareness and nursing satisfaction degree of two groups before the intervention and after the intervention (before the operation, at 12, 24, 48 h and 72 h after the operation) were respectively analyzed and compared. Results The mild pain rates of the observation group before the operation, at 12, 24, 48 h and 72 h after the operation were 31. 11%, 31. 11%, 31. 11%, 48. 89, 66. 67%, respectively, which were significantly higher than those of the control group (χ2 =5. 789,5. 789,7. 169, 7. 246, 7. 513, respectively;P<0. 05). The satisfaction rates of pain nursing effect, nursing attitude, health education and basic nursing were 100% of the observation group. Those rate of the control group were 84. 44%, 88. 89%, 88. 89%, 91. 11%, respectively, which were significantly lower than those of the observation group (χ2 =6. 982, 5. 463, 6. 427, 6. 547, respectively;P<0. 05). Conclusions The effect of acute pain management team in the painless treatment of patients during the perioperative period of hand surgery is better, and it is helpful for increasing the pain awareness and reducing the pain degree of patients.

Objective:To summarize the anesthesia management of living small bowel transplantation.Methods:Severn patients undergoing living and allogeneic small bowel transplantation for the first time were selected.The intraoperative hemodynamics, indexes of blood gas analysis, body temperature and blood transfusion and volume of liquid infused were analyzed.Postoperative outcomes were tracked.Results:Six cases survived and were successfully discharged from hospital successfully, and one patient died.In the operation room, 71% patients were successfully extubated after surgery.Compared with the values during anatomical separation period, Hb during vascular anastomosis and intestinal reconstruction periods and concentration of Ca 2+ during intestinal reconstruction period were significantly decreased, and the blood glucose concentration during vascular anastomosis period were increased ( P<0.05 or 0.01). Compared with the values during vascular anastomosis period, the blood glucose concentration was increased significantly during intestinal reconstruction period ( P<0.05). Crystalloid solution (57±30) ml/kg and colloid solution which mainly containing 20% albumin (15±13) ml/kg were infused mainly during anatomical separation and vascular anastomosis periods in all the patients. Conclusion:The condition of successful living small bowel transplantation is fully evaluation and preparation before surgery.Intravenous-inhalational anesthesia combined with transverses abdominis plane block and rational infusion of colloid solution with vasoactive drugs to maintain hemodynamics stability and monitor blood gas, body temperature, active adjustment of electrolytes and internal environment and stable body temperature can be helpful in maintaining perioperative stable vital signs during the perioperative period, removing the tracheal tube early at the end of surgery, and reducing the development of postoperative complications in patients undergoing living small bowel transplantation.

Objective To explore the application value of stage rehabilitation intervention under the Health action process approach(HAPA)model(SRI-HAPAM)combined with tranexamic acid(TXA)in elderly patients with femoral neck fracture(FNF)undergoing total hip arthroplasty(THA).Methods Elderly FNF patients with unilateral THA in the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from December 2022 to June 2023 were enrolled.According to the random number table method,the patients were divided into routine nursing(RN)group and TXA+SRI-HAPAM group.The RN group received conventional treatment after surgery,and the TXA+SRI-HAPAM group received TXA combined with SRI-HAPAM after surgery.The bleeding indexes[hidden blood loss(HBL),explicit blood loss(EBL)and blood transfusion volume(BTV)],and the levels of hemoglobin(Hb),C-reactive protein(CRP)and D-dimer(DD)were compared between the two groups at 24 h after surgery.The hip function[joint deformity(JD),joint function(JF),joint pain(JP),joint motion(JM)and total hip function(THF)],anxiety and depression[self-rating anxiety scale and self-rating depression scale],satisfaction with care,and complications were compared between the two groups at 3 months after surgery.Results A total of 100 elderly patients with unilateral THA due to FNF were included in the study,including 54 in the TXA+SRI-HAPAM group and 46 in the RN group.Before operation,there was no significant difference in Hb,CRP,DD,JD,JF,JP,JM,THF and SAS between the two groups(P>0.05).At 24 hours after operation,Hb decreased in the two groups,while CRP and DD increased(P<0.05),and the decrease in Hb and the increase in CRP and DD,as well as HBL,EBL and BTV in the TXA+SRI-HAPAM group,were lower than those in the RN group(P<0.05).At 3 months after operation,JD,JF,JP,JM and THF in both groups increased compared with those before operation,while SAS and SDS decreased compared with those before operation(P<0.05),and the functional scores of JD,JF,JP,JM and THF in the TXA+SRI-HAPAM group were significantly higher than those in the RN group,and the scores of SAS and SDS were lower than those in the RN group(P<0.05).3 months after surgery,the nursing satisfaction of the TXA+SRI-HAPAM group was significantly higher than that of the RN group,and the total complication rate was lower than that of the RN group(P<0.05).Conclusion Compared the Routine nursing,TXA combined with SRI-HAPAM more effectively promotes postoperative recovery in patients with THA.

Objective:To explore the role of tripartite motif-containing protein 21(TRIM21)in chronic apical periodontitis(CAP)and its potential mechanism.Methods:Human CAP tissue and normal periodontal tissue were collected.The expression of inflamma-tory factors(IL-1 β,IL-6,TNF-a,TGF-β1),osteoclast related genes(TRAP,RANKL,CTSK),macrophage polarization related genes(CD86,iNOS,CD206,Arg1)and TRIM21 were detected by RT-qPCR.TRIM21 protein was detected by immunohistochemical staining,and the osteoclasts was detected by tartrate resistant acid phosphatase(TRAP)staining.The inflammation cell model was es-tablished by stimulating Raw264.7 cells with lipoteichoic acid(LTA)or lipopolysaccharide(LPS),and the expression of the above factors was detected.The bone marrow-derived macrophages(BMDMs)extracted from wild-type and TRIM21-/-mice stimulated by LPS were used to verify the expression of the above factors by RT-qPCR,the osteoclasts were detected by TRAP staining,and the po-larization of macrophages was detected by immunofluorescence staining.Results:In CAP tissue the expression of inflammatory factors,osteoclast related genes,CD86,iNOS and TRIM21 increased,while CD206 and Arg1 decreased,and osteoclasts were more than that in normal tissue.The stimulation of LTA/LPS promoted the proliferation of Raw264.7 cells,and the expression of these factors in cells was consistent with that in tissues.After LPS stimulation,BMDMs of TRIM21-/-mice had lighter inflammation,lower expression of os-teoclast specific genes,fewer osteoclasts and lower M1 polarization than those of wild type mice.Conclusion:TRIM21 might promote the progress of CAP by promoting M1 polarization of macrophages.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical characteristics, MYD88^L265P mutation, CXCR4^WHIM mutation and prognosis in patients with Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM). Methods: The clinical characteristics, International Prognostic Scoring System for symptomatic WM (WPSS) , and overall survival (OS) were retrospectively assayed in 93 patients with newly diagnosed WM at Peking Union Medical College Hospital during January 2000 to August 2016. The MYD88^L265P mutation and CXCR4^WHIM mutation were tested among 34 patients. Results: The median age of the 93 patients was 64 years (range, 33-85 years) with a male-to-female ratio of 2.44. According to WPSS, we included 16 (17.2%) low-risk, 44 (47.3%) intermediate-risk and 33 (35.5%) high-risk patients. Eight patients had secondary amyloidosis. With a median follow-up of 44 (1-201) months, the median OS was 84 months. Cox regression multifactor analysis showed WPSS risk group (HR=2.342, 95% CI 1.111-4.950, P=0.025) , whether patients had secondary amyloidosis (HR=5.538, 95% CI 1.958-15.662, P=0.001) and whether patients received new drugs (HR=3.392, 95% CI 1.531-7.513, P=0.003) were independent factors associated with OS. We have investigated the presence of the MYD88^L265P and CXCR4^WHIM mutation in 34 patients and found that MYD88^L265P mutation was occurred in 32 patients (94.1%) and CXCR4^WHIM mutation was occurred in 8 patients (23.5%). Seven of 8 patients who harbored CXCR4^WHIM-mutated also exhibited the MYD88^L265P mutation. Patients with MYD88^L265PCXCR4^WHIM vs MYD88^L265PCXCR4^WT presented with more severe anemia, lower platelet level, higher M protein level and more hyper-viscosity syndrome. Conclusion WPSS risk group, whether patients had secondary amyloidosis or received new drugs are independent factors for OS in WM. MYD88^L265P and CXCR4^WHIM mutation, the most common somatic variants in WM, often occur together and impact the clinical presentation.

Since the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) affects the cardio-pulmonary function of pregnant women, the anesthetic management and protection of medical staff in the cesarean section is significantly different from that in ordinary surgical operation. This paper reports a case of cesarean section for a woman with COVID-19, which was successfully performed in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine on February 8, 2020. Anesthetic management, protection of medical staff and psychological intervention for the pregnant woman during the operation were discussed. Importance has been attached to the preoperative evaluation of pregnant women with COVID-19 and the implementation of anesthesia plan. For moderate patients, intraspinal anesthesia is preferred in cesarean section, and try to reduce its influence in respiration and circulation in both maternal and infant; general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation should be adopted for severe or critically ill patients. Ensure the safety of medical environment, and anesthetists should carry out level-Ⅲ standard protection. Special attention and support should be paid to maternal psychology: fully explanation before operation to reduce anxiety; relieve the discomfort during operation, so as to reduce tension; avoid the bad mood due to pain after operation.
