With the development of clinical related disciplines, the update and establishment of relevant standards/guidelines at home and abroad, GBZ 185-2006 Diagnostic Criteria for Occupational Medicamentose-like Dermatitis due to Trichloroethylene (hereinafter referred to as “GBZ 185-2006”) was unable to meet clinical needs. Therefore, the GBZ 185-2006 was revised based on the principles of evidence-based medicine, in accordance with relevant laws/regulations and relevant standards/guidelines in combination with review of research data on occupational medicamentose-like dermatitis due to trichloroethylene (OMDT) home and abroad, and the development of clinical practice and clinical related disciplines. The main modifications include: adding terms and definitions of OMDT, modifying the description of clinical manifestations of the diagnostic principles, adjusting the description of latency, deleting the diagnostic requirement of the incidence probability, adding the specific allergen patch test as the etiological diagnostic index, standardizing the application scope, operating procedure and precautions of the specific allergen patch test. In addition, the relevant content of “Basic Characteristics and Clinical Types of Skin Damage of Medicamentose-like Dermatitis due to Trichloroethylene” in Appendix A is improved, the treatment principles are revised, and the content of new progress in treatment, artificial liver application, are added. The revised GBZ 185-2024 Diagnostic Standard for Occupational Medicamentose-like Dermatitis due to Trichloroethylene is more scientific and practical, and can provide technical basis for the standardized diagnosis and treatment of OMDT in medical and health institutions.

Objective:To investigate the incidence of coronary artery tortuosity and its correlation with poor prognosis in patients with septal hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).Methods:This was a retrospective cohort study. Patients with septal HCM who were hospitalized in Fuwai Central China Cardiovascular Hospital and Zhengzhou University People′s Hospital between December 1, 2017 and June 10, 2021 were selected. Non-HCM patients were matched by gender, age, and hypertension as control group. Septal HCM was divided into two groups based on the presence or absence of coronary artery tortuosity. Clinical baseline data and coronary angiography findings were compared using a multifactorial logistic analysis of the risk factors for coronary artery tortuosity. Patients were followed up until July 1, 2022, with the primary outcome being the composite endpoint of malignant arrhythmia, ischemic stroke and all-cause death. Incidence densities were compared between the coronary artery tortuosity and non-coronary artery tortuosity groups of septal HCM patients. The Cox risk-ratio model was used to analyze risk factors for primary outcomes in septal HCM patients.Results:There were 156 patients in the septal HCM group and 156 patients in the control group, both aged (57.0±11.4) years, and 75 (48.1%) were female. The incidence of coronary artery tortuosity was significantly higher in the septal HCM group than in the control group (63.5% vs. 36.5%, P<0.01), and the coronary artery tortuosity score was also higher in the septal HCM group than in the control group ( P<0.01). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that septal HCM was a risk factor for coronary artery tortuosity ( OR=3.27, 95% CI: 2.02-5.29, P<0.01). In the septal HCM patients, after (2.5±1.2) years of follow-up, the incidence density of primary outcome was significantly higher in the coronary artery tortuosity group than in the non-coronary artery tortuosity group ( P=0.02), while each on-point in coronary artery tortuosity score increased the risk of primary outcome by 53% for septal HCM patients ( HR=1.53, 95% CI: 1.26-1.86, P<0.01). Conclusions:Patients with septal HCM are more prone to suffer coronary artery tortuosity and suffer from it to a greater extent. Coronary artery tortuosity is an important risk factor for adverse events in patients with septal HCM.

Objectives:To investigate the intravascular ultrasound(IVUS)evaluated efficacy of the"L-sandwich"technique in the percutaneous coronary intervention treatment of true bifurcation lesions of coronary artery. Methods:Ninety-nine patients with true bifurcation lesions(medina type 1.1.1)of the coronary arteries were divided into the L-sandwich group(n=38),the double-stent group(n=32),and the main vessel(MV)single-stent with side branch(SB)drug-coated balloon(DCB)only group(n=29).The primary study endpoint was the loss of late lumen area(LLAL)in the MV,SB ostium and SB shaft at 12 months,and the secondary endpoints were minimum lumen area(MLA)at each site and major adverse cardiac events(MACE)at 12 months.As this is a proof-of-concept study,statistical analyses were performed in the as-treated(AT)analysis set. Results:At 12-month follow-up,there was no statistically significant difference in the MV LLAL among patients in the"L-sandwich"technique group,the double stent technique group,and the MV DES with SB DCB technique group([0.12±0.42]mm2 vs.[0.07±0.38]mm2 vs.[-0.01±0.31]mm2,P=0.419).Similarly,there was no statistically significant difference in the LLAL at the SB shaft([-0.11±0.45]mm2 vs.[-0.10±0.28]mm2 vs.[0.24±1.04]mm2,P=0.078],with the maximum LLAL observed in the double stent technique group and the minimum in the"L-sandwich"technique group([-0.48±0.78]mm2 vs.[0.45±0.64]mm2 vs.[0.14±1.37]mm2,P<0.001).The MV MLA was similar among the three groups([8.39±1.65]mm2 vs.[8.28±0.98]mm2 vs.[8.02±1.37]mm2,P=0.565),while the maximum MLA at the SB ostium was observed in the double stent technique group and the minimum in the MV DES with SB DCB group([5.08±0.74]mm2 vs.[5.63±0.80]mm2 vs.[3.57±1.35]mm2,P<0.001).In terms of MLA at the SB shaft,the"L-sandwich"technique group was similar to the double stent technique group,while the MV DES with SB DCB group exhibited the minimum MLA([5.94±0.72]mm2 vs.[5.86±0.59]mm2 vs.[3.74±1.07]mm2,P<0.001).Two patients in the double stent technique group underwent target vessel revascularization,there was no MACE in the other two groups(P=0.118). Conclusions:The"L-sandwich"technique is safe and feasible for the treatment of coronary bifurcation lesions.Compared with double-stent group,the SB ostium has a smaller LLAL at the time of review,and there is no significant difference in the MLA of each site,and the operation steps are significantly simplified.Use of the"L-sandwich"technique is associated with a better branching benefit compared with MV single-stent group.The"L-sandwich"technique could be used as a remedial procedure for severe entrapment in the setting of branching with DCB alone.

Objective:To discuss the method and clinical outcomes in reconstruction of soft tissue defects on palmar side of thumbs and fingers by transfer of combined full-thickness skin grafting with a great toe fibular flap carrying partial subcutaneous fascial flap.Methods:From December 2019 to December 2023, 11 patients with soft tissue defects on the palmar side of thumbs and fingers were treated in the Department of Hand Surgery Ward One, the Longgang Orthopaedics Hospital of Shenzhen. The patients were 7 males and 4 females, aged 16-55 years old with 26 years old in average. Fibular great toe flaps carrying partial fascial subcutaneous flap were employed. The soft tissue defects of thumbs and fingers were 4.0 cm×3.0 cm-6.0 cm×4.0 cm in size. Fibular great toe flaps carrying partial fascial subcutaneous tissue flap were harvested for reconstruction of the soft tissue defects in palmar digits. The sizes of flaps were 4.0 cm×1.5 cm-6.0 cm×2.0 cm, and the extended area by subcutaneous tissue flap was 4.0 cm×1.5 cm-6.0 cm×2.0 cm. Eight medial foot skins and 3 medial calf skins were applied. All donor sites were directly sutured. All patients were included in the scheduled postoperative follow-up by regular visis of outpatient clinic, and by video and telephone to observe the appearance, function and healing of the flaps and donor sites.Results:All 11 flaps survived, including 1 that had partial necrosis, and healed after dressing changes. The follow-up ranged from 6 to 18 months, with an average of 9 months. Good shape, texture and elasticity of the flaps were achieved. The grasping, pinching and holding functions of digits were all good. According to the British Medical Research Council (BMRC) sensory recovery criteria, the sensation of the flap was recovered to S 3+, with 6 skin graft areas recovered to S 3 and 5 recovered to S 3+. Eight patients had no cold intolerance but 3 had mild cold intolerance with Cold Intolerance Symptom Severity (CISS) scores of 4, 12 and 36, respectively. According to the Evaluation Trial Standards of Upper Limb Partial Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association, 10 patients were in excellent and 1 in good. Linear scars were left at the donor sites. The Vancouver Scar Scale (VSS) score at the final follow-up was 2.42 points±0.75 points. The scars were flat or less than 1-2 mm above the skin with the colour close to that of the surrounding normal skin with good softness and without itchiness or pain. Conclusion:The combination of a fibular flap of the great toe with a fasciocutaneous flap and a full-thickness skin graft for reconstruction of the soft tissue defects on the palmar side of the thumbs and fingers can avoid skin grafting from a donor site hence reduce a damage to the donor site. It can be applied as an alternative surgical procedure.

BACKGROUND: Limited data are available on the changes in the quality of care for ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) during China's health system reform from 2009 to 2020. This study aimed to assess the changes in care processes and outcome for STEMI patients in Henan province of central China between 2011 and 2018. METHODS: We compared the data from the Henan STEMI survey conducted in 2011-2012 ( n = 1548, a cross-sectional study) and the Henan STEMI registry in 2016-2018 ( n = 4748, a multicenter, prospective observational study). Changes in care processes and in-hospital mortality were determined. Process of care measures included reperfusion therapies, aspirin, P2Y12 antagonists, β-blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers, and statins. Therapy use was analyzed among patients who were considered ideal candidates for treatment. RESULTS: STEMI patients in 2016-2018 were younger (median age: 63.1 vs . 63.8 years) with a lower proportion of women (24.4% [1156/4748] vs . 28.2% [437/1548]) than in 2011-2012. The composite use rate for guideline-recommended treatments increased significantly from 2011 to 2018 (60.9% [5424/8901] vs . 82.7% [22,439/27,129], P <0.001). The proportion of patients treated by reperfusion within 12 h increased from 44.1% (546/1237) to 78.4% (2698/3440) ( P <0.001) with a prolonged median onset-to-first medical contact time (from 144 min to 210 min, P <0.001). The use of antiplatelet agents, statins, and β-blockers increased significantly. The risk of in-hospital mortality significantly decreased over time (6.1% [95/1548] vs . 4.2% [198/4748], odds ratio [OR]: 0.67, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.50-0.88, P = 0.005) after adjustment. CONCLUSIONS Gradual implementation of the guideline-recommended treatments in STEMI patients from 2011 to 2018 has been associated with decreased in-hospital mortality. However, gaps persist between clinical practice and guideline recommendation. Public awareness, reperfusion strategies, and construction of chest pain centers need to be further underscored in central China.

Objective:To investigate the technique and clinical effect of repairing 2 soft tissue defects on the same finger with a pedicled tandem flap of the first dorsal metatarsal artery and the second toe tibial artery.Methods:From March, 2018 to May, 2020, 8 patients, which were 5 males and 3 females, with 2 soft tissue defects in the same finger, were repaired with the first dorsal metatarsal artery flap in series with the second toe tibial flap. The causes of injury: 4 by crush, 2 by heavy object, and 2 by thermal press. There were 4 defects on index fingers, 2 on middle fingers and 2 on ring fingers. The defects ranged from 2.0 cm×2.5 cm to 2.5 cm×3.0 cm. All defects had exposed bone or tendon at varying degrees and 3 with phalanx fractures. Three patients underwent emergency surgery, the other 5 had sub-emergency surgery which were performed 3 to 5 days after the injury. The size of the flaps was 2.0 cm×2.5 cm to 3.0 cm×3.5 cm. The donor sites were sutured directly in 3 patients and 5 patients received skin grafting. The regular follow-up was performed. The survival of flaps, character, feeling and Total active motion(TAM), recovery of the foot donor area and complications were observed.Results:The operation time ranged from 2.0 to 5.5 hours, with an average of 3.5 hours. No vascular crisis occurred and all flaps survived after the surgery. All patients entered follow-up for 3-20 months, with an average of 8 months. The flaps had a good plump appearance, soft texture, good elasticity, and with a high similarity to the surrounding skin. The TPD of the flaps was 6-15 mm, with an average of 8 mm. The fingers had good flexion and extension functions. The incision in the donor site of the foot healed by first intention. The walking, running and jumping were normal without pain or discomfort.Conclusion:The first dorsal metatarsal artery-second toe tibial artery tandem flap has been used to repair 2 soft tissue defects in same finger. It simplifies the revascularisation of the flap together with exact surgical curative effect.

Objective To discuss the clinical effect of transplantation of slice nail bed flap of great toe with vascular anastomosis in repair of partial nail-bed and soft tissue defect at fingers.Methods From January,2015 to March,2018,16 cases (16 fingers) of partial nail-bed defect at fingers were repaired with transplantation of slice nail bed flap of great toe with vascular anastomosis.All cases were combined with palmar soft tissue defect at distal segment fingers.The area of nail bed defects were from 0.8 cr×0.5 cm to 1.2 cm×1.0 cm.The area of soft tissue defects were from 1.2 cm×1.0 cm to 2.5 cm×1.5 cm.The average time from injury to operation was 3.6 hours after injuries (ranging from 1 hour to 8 hours).The area of slice nail bed flap incised during operation were from 2.5 cm×1.2 cm to 3.2 cm×1.8 cm,and the donor site was sutured directly.All patients were followed-up regularly for nail appearance,function and donor healing.Among them,11 cases were followed-up by clinic,4 cases by WeChat,and telephone follow-up was performed in 1 case.Results The nail-bed flap after transplantation survived successfully.The followed-up time were from 6 to 18 months,the average time was 9 months.Longitudinal spine and rough appearance occurred in 1 case.Others were flat,smooth,complete attachment of nail body and nail bed.The flaps had good appearance,texture and elasticity at 6 months after surgery,and two-point discrimination was 6-12 mm(average,8 mm).The toenails at donor sites grew well.No walk-associated pain after long-term following-up.Six months after surgery,according to standard for efficacy evaluation of nail regeneration,12 cases were excellent,3 cases were good and 1 case was acceptable.Conclusion Transplantation of slice nail bed flap of great toe with vascular anastomosis in repair of partial nail-bed and soft tissue defect at fingers is one of the effective methods for repairing nail-bed defect at fingers.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of using hallux-nail flap with the distal part of phalanx combined with iliac bone for reconstruction of thumb with Ⅲ degree defect.Methods From June,2011 to June,2016,7 patients with thumb Ⅲ degree defect were treated with the hallux-nail flaps with distal phalanx combined with iliac bone to reconstruct thumbs.According to the thumb defect indexing method reported by Cheng Guoliang,the type 1 of thumb Ⅲ degree defect was 4 cases,and the type 2 of Ⅲ degree defect was 3 cases.The donor site was covered with skin grafting in 1 case,free superficial iliac artery graft in 5 cases and free peroneal artery perforator flap in 1 case.All patients kept the number and length of donor toes.Regular follow-up was performed after operation to observe the function,shape,feeling of finger reconstruction,the survival condition of flaps or skin graft in donor site,etc.It was also observed if the pain by walking actually exists in the long-term effect.Results All of the reconstructed thumbs survived.One patient suffered the necrotic in the donor site repaired by superficial iliac artery flap,which was successfully covered with the skin graft.All patients were followed-up from 3 months to 18 months (mean,8 months).The reconstructed thumb with smooth nail had fine textile and good elasticity,good flexion and extension function of the palm,fingers and the metacarpophalangeal joint.The donor sites recovered with fine texture,and there were no difficulties in walking and running and no complaint about the pain and discomfort.According to the Trial Criteria of Upper Limb Functional Evaluation of Chinese Medical Association Hand Surgery Society,5 cases resulted in excellent,and 2 cases resulted in good.Conclusion The hallux-nail flap with the distal phalanx combined with iliac bone is an excellent option to reconstruct thumb with Ⅲ degree defect with the outcome of good function and appearance.The trauma of the donor site is small and the number and length of the toes are remained.The clinical effect is good.
