Objective To explore the procedures of reconstruction emergency for skin and soft tisue defects due to trauma with local flap based on plastic surgical principles and techniques.Methods Thirty-two patients with facial defects caused by tramua were treated.After strict debridement of the wound of the skin and soft tissue,the flaps were designed according to the wound condition with plastic surgical principles.Subcutaneous SMAS pedicle flap,V-Y advancement flap,orbicularis flap,nasolabial groove flaps and others were chosen for wound repair,to suture and close the wound meticu lously.Results All of 32 treated cases,the wounds were primary healing.After 6-18 months follow-up,there was no obvious scar formation or functional problems.Second stage reconstruction was not needed since the cosmetic effect was perfect.Conclusions It is a satisfactory and effective method to emergently treat the skin and soft tissue defects after facial trauma with local flap based on the plastic surgical principles,which is well worth popularizing in clinic.

Objective To investigate the expression patterns of major bone growth factors and bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP2) in the distracted calluses following transfected gene during mandibular distraction osteogenesis in a rabbit model.Methods Bilateral mandibular osteotomies were performed in New-Zeland rabbits.After a latency of 3 days,the mandibles were elongated using distractors for 7 days.After the completion of distraction,the rabbits were randomly divided into 5 groups.Three animals each were sacrificed at the end of the delay phase,at 7,14,and 28 days after completion of distraction,respectively.The lengthened mandibles were harvested and processed for immunohistochemical detection of BMP2 expression,the mean optic densities and integral optical density of BMP2 positive cells were measured by computerized image analyzer.Results Elevated cellular expression of BMP2,in the distraction gap,was observed following mandibular distraction.BMP2 staining was mainly located in inflammatory cells,and the connective tissues arrounding the new bone.Their strongest expression was the 7th day,some of those growth factors expressed weakly or negatively.Conclusions Electroporation-mediated gene transfection can promote BMP2 expression effectively,which plays an important role in cell differentiation and proliferation during distraction osteo genesis.The BMP2 stimulates extracellular matrix synthesis,induces the proliferation and differentiation of fibroblasts and osteoblasts,which then promotes the new bone formation and repair.

Objective To investigate the influence of heparin pretreatment on serum and lung tissue level of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in septic mice model and its molecular mechanism.Methods Ninety male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into control group (n = 30), lipopolysaccharides (LPS) group (n = 30, 30 mg/kg LPS in 100μL normal saline was intraperitoneally injected) and LPS+heparin group (n = 30, 8 U of heparin in 20μL normal saline was subcutaneously injected 30 minutes before the injection of LPS). Six hours later of LPS injection, blood was collected and lung tissue was harvested. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to assess the concentration of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and histones 2AX (H2AX), neutrophil elastase (NE), which reflected NETs concentration. PicoGreen fluorescent dyes was used to detect serum circulating free DNA (cf-DNA/NETs) concentration. The protein expression levels of H2AX and NE in lung tissue were examined by Western Blot.Results The serum concentrations of TNF-α, IL-6, H2AX, NE, cf-DNA/NETs, and the protein expression levels of H2AX and NE in lung tissue of septic mice were significantly higher than those of control group [TNF-α (ng/L): 133.0±14.1 vs. 2.7±1.0, IL-6 (ng/L): 3911.2±189.2 vs. 298.9±52.5, H2AX (ng/L): 545.5±40.0 vs. 21.9±8.3, NE (μg/L): 6.48±0.12 vs. 0.47±0.15, cf-DNA/NETs (μg/L): 846.3±137.5 vs. 152.7±36.4, H2AX protein (gray value): 1.14±0.09 vs. 0.68±0.04, NE protein (gray value): 0.56±0.03 vs. 0.32±0.04, allP < 0.05]. After heparin pretreatment, levels of serum TNF-α, H2AX, NE, cf-DNA/NETs, and protein expression levels of H2AX and NE in lung tissue were significantly reduced [TNF-α (ng/L): 83.2±7.6 vs. 133.0±14.1, H2AX (ng/L): 435.0±39.0 vs. 545.5±40.0, NE (μg/L): 4.26±0.17 vs. 6.48±0.12, cf-DNA/NETs (μg/L): 606.5±73.9 vs. 846.3±137.5, H2AX protein (gray value): 0.91±0.03 vs. 1.14±0.09, NE protein (gray value): 0.42±0.03 vs. 0.56±0.03, allP < 0.05], but no significant change was found in IL-6 (ng/L: 3919.9±166.6 vs. 3911.2±189.2,P > 0.05).Conclusion Heparin pretreatment could significantly decrease the level of NETs in serum and lung tissue, and can be the potential mechanism of its organ protection in sepsis.

Clostridium cellulolyticum, as one of obligate anaerobic bacteria capable of secreting cellulosome, has not been efficiently cultured due to its strict requirement of growing conditions. In this study, culture conditions of C. cellulolyticum were optimized using response surface methodology. Plackett-Burman design was first used to screen the dominant impact factors for the growth of C. cellulolyticum, which were determined as yeast extract concentration, cellobiose concentration and culture temperature. The steepest ascent path design was then applied to gain the suitable range close to the optimal culture conditions for obtaining high cell density. The central composite design and the response surface analysis were finally used to determine the optimal levels of the influential factors, which were 3 g/L for yeast extract concentration, 7 g/L cellobiose concentration and 34 degrees C for culture temperature. The optimized medium was used for flask culture, and OD600 of C. cellulolyticum was increased from 0.303 to 0.586. With a pH-controlled fermentor at batch mode, OD600 reached 3.432, which was 2.8 times higher than elsewhere reported. These results support further study on the high-density culture of C. cellulolyticum and its application.

Objective To evaluate the clinical application value of multi-slice helical CT volumetric (VH) scanning in lumber spine. Methods One thousand of patients with back and leg pain who underwent CT examinations were selected as subjects. We simulated the traditional protocol of single-slice(SS) discrete scanning for L3/4, L4/5, and LS/S1 intervertebral discs. The VH scanning mode was performed with 120 kV, 210 mAs,pitch of 1.5 and coverage of 97. 5 mm. The simulated SS scanning mode was performed with 120 kV, 240 mAs and coverage of 45.0 mm. The diagnostic outcomes and the radiation doses were compared between the two scanning modes. Two groups doctors observed ten terms, including the osseous spinal stenosis,narrowed intervertebral space and so on in two scanning modes respectively. Then consistency analysis of the data was carried out. Results The VH scanning mode showed far more features than the SS mode. The detection rates of the VH mode in the osseous spinal stenosis, narrowed intervertebral space,herniated nucleus pulposus, narrowed lateral recess, vertebral lesion, hypertrophy of L5 transverse process,abnormal direction of facet, facet degeneration, lumbar spondyloschisis, and paraspinal soft tissue were 11.8% (n =118), 38. 5% (n =385), 9. 3% (n =93), 46. 8% (n =468), 31.4% (n =314), 5.7% (n =57), 25.4% (n = 254), 49. 7% (n = 497), 9.9% (n = 99), and 0. 6% (n = 6) respectively, while the detection rates of the SS mode in ten terms were 5.6% (n = 56), 0, 0. 6% (n = 6), 27. 9% (n = 279),22.4% (n =224), 1.2% (n = 12), 16.7% (n = 167), 37.2% (n =372), 0.5% (n =5), and 0.2%(n = 2) respectively. The difference between the two groups had statistically significance (average P <0.05), except the paraspinal soft tissue abnormal (P > 0.05). The detection rates of the VH mode were higher than the SS mode in the osseous spinal stenosis, narrowed intervertebral space, herniated nucleus pulposus, lumbar spondyloschisis, being 6.2% (n = 62) , 38. 5% (n = 385) , 8.7% (n = 87), and 9.4%(n =94), respectively. In addition, VH mode only partially showed the articular facets, narrowed lateral recess, hypertrophy of L.5 transverse process, and paraspinal soft tissue. We could not acquire the imaging slices paralleling to intervertebral discs in SS mode in 467 patients (46.7%) with lumbosacral angle greater than 35°. The radiation dose of VH mode (164.9 mGy/em) was slightly higher than SS mode (147.0 mGy/cm) Conclusion MSCT VH scanning mode can significantly improve the diagnostic rate of lumbar spine diseases compared with SS mode, and was not restricted by the lumbosacral angle with slightly increasing radiation dosage.
