Objective The anterior-lateral defect of foot that lost one of the three supporting point of foot can lead to collapse of the lateral longitudinal arch, overload of the first metatarsal heads, and painful callus formation. It is meaningful to investigate the effect of reconstructing the lateral forefoot defect with pedical fibular osteoseptocutaneous flap. Methods From March 1989 to June 2008, there were 38 patients with anterior-lateral defect of foot were constructed. The supporting point with the local distal based pedical fibular osteoseptocutaneous flap was constracted. Results All the 38 flaps survived. All 38 patients had been followed up from 6 months to 10 years (mean 23.5 months) postoperatively. The constructed supporting point of the foot was functional. The patients could walk freely with no pain, and was satisfied with the operation. Assessed with the rating system for foot and ankle established by the American Orthopaedic Foot And Anke Society, 8 patients got a score above 85, 23 patients between 75 to 85, 7 patients between 60 to 75. Conclusion It is effective that transferring local distal based pedical fibular osteoseptocutaneous flap to repair the anterior-lateral defect of foot.

Hypertension is a common chronic disease with elevated arterial pressure as the main clinical manifestation，which can cause lesions in important organs such as heart，brain and kidney. In recent years，the prevalence of hypertension has increased，and its incidence is also increasing year by year. Combining the theory of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） with personal clinical experience，Academician TONG Xiaolin put forward the specific pathogenesis of "disease-stage-state" of hypertension based on the state-target theory. Lipophagy plays an important role in the pathogenesis of hypertension by interfering with lipid metabolism，atherosclerosis，arterial plaque formation，vascular remodeling，vascular endothelial injury and other aspects of hypertension. Through modern medical and biological research，on the one hand，it is believed that the dynamic pathological changes in lipophagy are closely related to the "stage" of hypertensive state-target differentiation and treatment，corresponding to the time points of disease occurrence and development in the three stages of hypertension. On the other hand，it is believed that lipophagy is an important microscopic manifestation of the "state" of hypertensive state-target differentiation and treatment. From the perspective of lipophagy，this paper discusses the biological connotation of the 'disease-stage-state' model of state-target differentiation and treatment of hypertension and draws on the modern medicine to understand the law of disease development，matching the macro differentiation and treatment of TCM and the micro physico-chemical indicators of modern medicine to achieve precise TCM treatment. This study provides new ideas for the early prevention and treatment of hypertension and its complications.

Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) has been only reported to prevent type 1 diabetic nephropathy (DN) in the streptozotocin-induced type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) mouse model. However, the FVB (Cg)-Tg (Cryaa-Tag, Ins2-CALM1) 26OVE/PneJ (OVE26) transgenic mouse is a widely recommended mouse model to recapture the most important features of T1DM nephropathy that often occurs in diabetic patients. In addition, most previous studies focused on exploring the preventive effect of FGF21 on the development of DN. However, in clinic, development of therapeutic strategy has much more realistic value compared with preventive strategy since the onset time of DN is difficult to be accurately predicted. Therefore, in the present study OVE26 mice were used to investigate the potential therapeutic effects of FGF21 on DN.
