【Objective】 To develop a spray-on membrane dressing for wound repair containing platelet rich plasma (PRP) sodium alginate (SA)/agarose(AG)/carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS). 【Methods】 SA/AG/ CMCS were mixed in different proportions to prepare biodegradable quick setting spray (BQSS) by blending film method, and the film-forming time, moisture retention and compression resistance of the prepared BQSS were tested. Then PRP and BQSS were mixed in the proportion of 3∶7, 4∶6, 5∶5, 6∶4 and 7∶3 to prepare PRP-BQSS spray film dressings. The film-forming time, moisture retention, compressive strength, porosity and slow-release effect of growth factors of PRP-BQSS spray film dressings were studied. 【Results】 In the preparation of BQSS compound spray film solution, when SA, AG, CMCS and sterile distilled water were 0.6∶0.6∶0.6∶98.2g, the film-forming time (7.73±0.31) s, moisture retention (75. 54±3.03) % and compression resistance (791.00±68.02) g of the spray-film dressing were the best. The basic properties of PRP-BQSS spray-on film dressings and the release of growth factors show that PRP-BQSS spray-on film dressings can exist in different forms, and with the decrease of PRP concentration percentage, its film-forming time, moisturizing performance and compressive strength showed an upward trend. When the PRP content is 30%, the porosity of the dressing is the highest, about(84.34±0.90)%. The release of platelet-derived growth factor-AA(PDGF-AA), platelet factor-4(PF-4) and transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) was in a slow upward trend, and the release of the three growth factors was higher than that of PRP group in 48 hours. 【Conclusion】 The preparation method of PRP-BQSS spray film dressing designed in this study is simple and mild, and can form a film quickly, with good biological properties and better growth factor inhibition and sustained-release effect.

【Objective】 To analyze the influencing factors of clinical efficacy of autologous platelet-rich plasma in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia. 【Methods】 From January, 2019 to December, 2021, 151 outpatients with androgenetic alopecia were treated in our hospital. All patients were treated with autologous PRP injection once a month and planned to received injection for 4-6 occasions. According to the hair growth before and after treatment, the treatment results were evaluated. The influencing factors in the treatment results were grouped and analyzed, including the treatment numbers (divided into 1-6 occasions), the grade of alopecia(three grades: mild, moderate and severe alopecia) and the Plt concentration in PRP[five grades(×109/L): extremely low concentration (<800), low concentration (801-1 000) and medium concentration (1 001-1 200), high concentration(1 201-1 500)and extremely high concentration(>1 501)]. 【Results】 The correlation coefficient between the number of treatments and the effective rate was pearson=0.986, P<0.001, showing a positive correlation. There was a statistical difference in the total number of treatments between groups (P<0.01). As to the severity of alopecia: The effective rates of mild and moderate alopecia patients (66.67%, 56.95%) were higher than those of severe alopecia patients (35%). The difference between groups was statistically significant (P<0.01). As to the concentration of Plt in PRP: The concentration of Plt directly affected the therapeutic effect. When the Plt count was (1 200-1 500)×109/L, the effect was optimal, reaching 68.12%, which was significantly higher than the other four groups(P<0.01). The treatment numbers, alopecia grade and Plt concentration in PRP were all related to the effectiveness of treatment (P<0.05). When the OR value of treatment numbers and Plt concentration was >1, the effective rate increased by 2.619 times and 2.033 times, respectively, as treatment numbers and Plt concentration increased. When the OR value of the grade of alopecia was 0.338 (0<0.338<1), the effective rate decreased with the increase of alopecia severity; For each grade increased, the effective rate would be compromised by 0.338. 【Conclusion】 When PRP is applied to treat AGA patients, the clinical therapeutic effect will be better in patients who received more treatments, PRP with higher Plt count, and be in the early degree of hair loss. Whether the higher the concentration of Plt in PRP, the better the therapeutic effect will be, remains to be further verified.

【Objective】 To explore the clinical effects of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in the treatment of postoperative bone nonunion for long bone shaft fractures during operation and after operation. 【Methods】 A total of 34 patients with postoperative bone nonunion for long bone shaft fracture, who were admitted and cured in the Orthopedics Department of our hospital from January 2019 to June 2020, were selected. They were randomly divided into the experimental group(n=17) and control group(n=17). Individuals in the control were treated with autologous iliac bone alone., while the experimental group were treated with autologous iliac bone graft plus autologous PRP during and after operation. After surgery, the autogenous PRP was accurately injected with ultrasound guidance every 7 days (5 mL/person, 4 occasions in total). The clinical healing time of the fracture, the grading of callus formation and the functional rehabilitation level of limbs on the affected side at different time were observed in both groups. 【Results】 All 34 patients were followed up. In the experimental group and the control group, the clinical healing time (month) of the fracture was (5.03±1.24) vs (6.91±1.41), P<0.05. The healing rate of the fracture for 6 months and 9 months was 94%(16/17)vs 59%(10/17)and 94%(16/17)vs 82%(14/17), respectively (P<0.05). The grading of callus formation within 3, 6 and 9 months was (2.11±0.69) vs (1.53±0.80), (3.06±0.90) vs (2.59±0.87) and (3.82±0.73) vs (3.35±0.86), respectively (P<0.05). The acceptance rate of functional rehabilitation of limbs on the affected side was 82.35%(14/17)vs 76.47%(13/17), P<0.05. 【Conclusion】 The application of autologous PRP in the treatment of postoperative bone nonunion for long bone shaft fractures during operation and after operation can achieve good clinical treatment.

Drug transportation is impeded by various barriers in the hypoxic solid tumor, resulting in compromised anticancer efficacy. Herein, a solid lipid monostearin (MS)-coated CaO2/MnO2 nanocarrier was designed to optimize doxorubicin (DOX) transportation comprehensively for chemotherapy enhancement. The MS shell of nanoparticles could be destroyed selectively by highly-expressed lipase within cancer cells, exposing water-sensitive cores to release DOX and produce O2. After the cancer cell death, the core-exposed nanoparticles could be further liberated and continue to react with water in the tumor extracellular matrix (ECM) and thoroughly release O2 and DOX, which exhibited cytotoxicity to neighboring cells. Small DOX molecules could readily diffuse through ECM, in which the collagen deposition was decreased by O2-mediated hypoxia-inducible factor-1 inhibition, leading to synergistically improved drug penetration. Concurrently, DOX-efflux-associated P-glycoprotein was also inhibited by O2, prolonging drug retention in cancer cells. Overall, the DOX transporting processes from nanoparticles to deep tumor cells including drug release, penetration, and retention were optimized comprehensively, which significantly boosted antitumor benefits.

To explore the mode of"one-day outpatient"based continuous management and examine its feasibility and preliminary effects for improving menopausal syndrome and mood among menopausal women.Clinical intervention study was conducted in Obstetrics and Gynecology Center of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from May 2020 to May 2021.The continuous management mode of "one-day outpatient service" for menopause was constructed in terms of multidisciplinary resources, including offline "one-day outpatient" health education, online 7-week group continuous intervention on "healthy lifestyle" and offline half-day focus group interview. Pre-and post-scores of the modified Kupperman scale and the positive/negative emotional scale (PANAS) were measured to compare the status of menopausal syndrome and emotional experience of Seventy-eight female participants (40-60 years old), meanwhile, before and after comparison of the blood lipid and body composition indexes of participants were also performed. Paired t test or Wilcoxon signed rank test were used.Results show that the pre-and post Kupperman scores were 14.65±8.51 vs 10.26±5.83 ( t=-5.59, P<0.01), and the positive emotional scores (pre- 28.53±5.85 vs post- 30.13±6.30) were improved ( t=2.59, P=0.012) and negative emotional scores [pre- 20.5(10) vs post- 17.0(7)] were decreased ( Z=-5.09, P<0.01). The triglyceride level of participants declined from (1.27±0.54) mmol/L to (1.09±0.38) mmol/L ( t=-2.45, P<0.05). In addition, the body mass index(pre- 22.52±2.34 vs post- 22.06±2.22), percentage of body fat (pre- 31.72±6.22 vs post- 30.91±6.52)and Visceral fat area(pre- 83.96±30.26 vs post- 79.66±29.71) were all improved ( t=-3.58, t=-2.57, t=-2.59, P<0.05). Therefore,the mode of"one-day outpatient"based continuous management can effectively improve menopausal syndrome and adverse mood, reduce patients′ blood lipid, improve the body composition, and maybe contribute to the prevention of long-term chronic diseases.
