Objective To compare of the efficacy of two distinct debridement techniques in membrane induction therapy for chronic tibial osteomyelitis.Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 52 patients with Cierny-Mader type IV A/B chronic tibial osteomyelitis who were treated at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University between July 2016 and December 2023.Five patients were diagnosed and treated before 2020,while 47 were managed from 2020 onward.Patients were divided into two groups:a local debridement group(n=28)and an en bloc osteotomy group(n=24).Perioperative outcomes—including operative time,incision length,intraoperative blood loss,and length of hospital stay—were assessed,along with clinical efficacy at 6 months,12 months,and final follow-up.Clinical outcomes were evaluated using the Hospital for Special Surgery(HSS)knee score,the American Orthopaedic Foot&Ankle Society(AOFAS)ankle-hindfoot score,joint range of motion(knee flexion-extension and ankle plantarflexion-dorsiflexion),recurrence rate,and the Paley classification for infectious bone defects.Results The local debridement group exhibited significantly less intraoperative blood loss(P<0.05),shorter operative time(P<0.05),and reduced hospital stay(P<0.05),as well as higher AOFAS and HSS scores at both 6 and 12 months postoperatively(P<0.05).In contrast,the osteotomy group demonstrated superior Paley classification outcomes at 6 months,12 months,and final follow-up(P<0.05),along with lower rates of infection recurrence.Longitudinal analysis indicated significant improvements in AOFAS scores,HSS scores,and joint mobility over time in both groups(P<0.05).However,no statistically significant differences were observed between groups in terms of functional scores or joint mobility parameters at final follow-up(P>0.05).Conclusion En bloc osteotomy combined with the induced membrane technique(Masquelet technique)enables more comprehensive debridement,minimizes the necessity for repeated surgical interventions,reduces postoperative complications,lowers the risk of recurrence,and promotes enhanced bone healing.

Objective To explore the relationship between non-high density lipoprotein cholesterol(non-HDL-C)level and leptomeningeal collateral circulation in patients with acute middle cerebral artery occlusion.Methods A total of 85 patients with first-onset acute cerebral infarction with middle cerebral artery M1 segment occlusion were enrolled.According to the results of DSA,LMC circulation was assessed by American Society of Interventional and Therapeutic Neuroradiology/Society of Interventional Radiology Collateral Circulation Assess-ment System.All patients were assigned to better LMC circulation group(score 2～4,n = 30)and worse LMC circulation group(score 0～1,n = 55),and the levels of non-HDL-C were compared between the two groups.Results The levels of LDL-C and non-HDL-C in worse LMC circulation group were significantly higher than those of the better LMC circulation group(P = 0.026,P = 0.010).non-HDL-C was an independent risk factor for the worse LMC circulation(OR = 3.019,95%CI:1.053～8.658,P = 0.04).LMC circulatory score of patients was negatively correlated with the levels of non-HDL-C level(r =-0.228,P = 0.036).The AUC of non-HDL-C predicted for the worse LMC circulation was 0.638(95%CI:0.521～0.755,P = 0.036).Conclusions non-HDL-C in patients with acute cerebral infarction was significantly related to worse LMC circulation,and was a risk factor for worse LMC circulation.It is suggested that the higher expression of non-HDL-C could be used to predict worse LMC circulation as a serological indicator.

Objective:To analyze the usage intention and key issues of medical staff to use telemedicine, for improving telemedicine service system in China.Methods:From October to November 2019, medical workers of both the inviting party and invited party who experienced telemedicine in seven provinces of Fujian, Hainan, Henan, Hunan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Qinghai were selected for an online questionnaire survey. Areas covered included their usage intention, satisfaction and cognitive appraisal of telemedicine. Descriptive statistical analysis and non-parametric test were used to discuss the intention of further use, satisfaction and challenges of medical workers in various provinces and regions.Results:1 084 valid questionnaires were recovered. The data found the overall satisfaction was 98.62%, and the proportion of their intention of further use was 98.25%, and those from the eastern and western provinces presented higher intention of usage. The top challenges as reflected by these medical workers were named as follows: timeliness of consultation progress and information feedback; long latency time; low Internet speed, poor and interrupted Internet signal; inadequate system equipments and inconvenient operation; difficulties in remote physical checkup and overall understanding of patient conditions; as well as substandard, incomplete and poor medical records.Conclusions:These medical workers are satisfied with the telemedicine services and willing to continue to use telemedicine.For those existing problems, it is suggested to strengthen the infrastructure and optimize the process of telemedicine services, so as to encourage them in greater use of telemedicine.

Objective:To analyze the actual and expected incentives and key issues of telemedicine providers in China and to provide important references for optimizing telemedicine incentive policies.Methods:The sample data came from a questionnaire survey of 1 084 providers in 7 provinces of Fujian, Hainan, Henan, Hunan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Qinghai in October and November 2019 and a semi-structured interview data at 6 hospitals in Henan province in January 2020. Descriptive analysis was used to sort such data into text data for classified summation.Results:The greatest gaps were found between actual incentives and expected ones in expense subsidies, title promotion and excellence awards, with such gaps as high as 18.65, 28.26, 29.28 percentages among providers of junior, deputy senior and senior academic titles respectively. Hospitals fall short in providing adequate incentives for telemedicine providers, not to mention lack of differentiation and diversification in personnel incentives, and poor implementation of incentive policies.Conclusions:It is suggested to strengthen incentive demand analysis, break the homogenization bottleneck of incentive policies, and consolidate internal publicity and implementation of incentive policies.

Objective To discuss primary experience the clinical use of "All-seeing needle set" combined with Holmium laser to treat the single renal stone lesser than 2 cm in diameter through a super minimal tract (F12).Methods From January 2015 to December 2016,43 patients were enrolled into this retrospective study.There were 23 males and 20 females who were diagnosed as single renal stone less than 2 cm in diameter(age range from 23-65 years).There were 8 upper pole renal stones,13 lower pole renal stones and 22 renal pelvis stones.The mean stone size was (1.63 ± 0.32) cm in diameter (range from 1.2 cm to 2.0 cm)."All-seeing needle system" was applied during percutaneous puncture.After building a F12 minimal tract by fascia dilator,all patients received lithotripsy with Holmium laser.Indwelling catheters for 3 days and an F6 double-J tube was left for 2 weeks without a tube in the percutaneous tract after operation.Finally,KUB and/or urinary CT were used to check the results on day 1.Result All operations were completed successfully.The operation time was 23-65min [averaged (31.0 ±9.2) min].41 cases' renal stones were store free,and the 2 stone residues was clear with later extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy.No severe complications occurred.Conclusion As an alternative to standard procedures for treatment of renal stones less than 2 cm in diameter,adopting "All-seeing needle set" with Holmium laser through a super minimal tract (F12) is safe,minimally invasive,fast and effective with a low complication rate.

An enhance matrix removal ( EMR) QuEChERS method for simultaneous determination of 22 triazine herbicide residuals such as atrazine, propazine, terbumeton, and desmetryn in corn was established and validated. The corn samples were initially extracted with acetonitrile ( MeCN ) in high-speed homogenization, and the targeted pesticides were prepared using EMR-Lipid (Enhanced matrix removal-lipid) method to clean-up and EMR-Polish to salt out, separated on a Kinetex XB-C18 with acetonitrile and 0. 1%formic acid aqueous as eluant, and then detected by UFLC-MS / MS under positive ( ESI+ ) electrospray ionization and MRM models. The average recoveries of 22 herbicides were in the range of 72% -105% at the spiked level of 5, 10 and 20 μg / kg. The relative standard deviations were less than 15% . In the method validation, correlation coefficients were higher than 0. 993 with the linear range from 1. 0 μg / L to 50 μg / L. The qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis were investigated by UFLC-MS / MS and matrix-matched calibration curves. The results showed that EMR QuEChERS combined with UFLC-MS / MS purification method was rapid, accurate and sensitive for the determination of 22 triazine herbicides residues in corn.

Objective: To establish an optimal extraction process of the total glycoalkaloids in Solanum tuberosum L. and then study the anti-inflammatory activity. Methods:The extraction process of the total glycoalkaloids was optimized by orthogonal design. Compared with that of the total glycoalkaloids in Rhizoma Dioscoreae Melanophymatis and fresh potato pieces, the anti-inflammatory ac-tivity of the total glycoalkaloids in Solanum tuberosum L. was evaluated by mouse ear swelling model induced by xylene, rat paw swell-ing model induced by carrageenan, granuloma model caused by cotton and blood capillary permeability experiments. Results:The opti-mal extraction conditions were as follows:the extraction temperature was 65℃, 10-fold amount of methanol was used for twice extrac-tion with 45 min per time. The total glycoalkaloids from the optimal extraction had obvious anti-inflammatory activity,and the effect was related to the content ofα-chaconine. Conclusion:The results show that the order of different factors affecting the extraction rate is ex-traction temperature> extraction time, and the total glycoalkaloids in Solanum tuberosum L. has good anti-inflammatory effects in mice and rats.
