From July to August 2018, a survey on the awareness of diabetic foot screening was conducted using the online questionnaires posted on the WeChat group. From 107 trainees in General Practitioner Teacher Training Program of Beijing Xicheng District and 50 general practitioners working in Chinese Academy of Sciences, 145 valid questionnaires were received. All 145 participants worked in community health care settings, including 105 general practitioners, 76 had 10 to 20 years of service, and 98 had undergraduate degree. The survey showed that 75.9% (110/145) heard the diabetic foot screening and knew that screening should be done for all diabetic patients; 98.6% (142/145) knew that the screening should include medical history, foot skin, neuropathy, vascular status, and 73.1% (106/145) also knew that screening should include the foot bone, joint deformities and footwear selection; 21.4% (31/145) had participated in training related to diabetic foot screening. It is suggested that the awareness and knowledge of diabetic foot screening among Beijing community medical personnelare not sufficient, and more training opportunity is necessary for them.

Osteofascial compartment syndrome (OFCS) is clinically common and is well known to orthopedic surgeons.Clinicians attach great importance to OFCS because of its severe clinical consequences,and decompression of fascial compartment is often performed in emergency treatment.This article reviews the literature on the threshold of fascial compartment decompression proposed by many scholars in the past and discusses the problems in the clinical diagnosis of acute compartment syndrome,especially the inconsistent pressure thresholds as the indication for emergency decompression surgery.By observing calf fractures patients with tension blister,we found that the pressure of fascia decreased sharply upon the appearance of blisters.Meanwhile,the swelling gradually subsided as well as the clinical manifestations of pain and parasthsia.In view of the uncertainty of various thresholds of fascial decompression and self-decompression,the concepts of myofascial self-release law and muscle-swelling syndrome were first proposed.The author believes that when intracompartmental pressure rises to a point,some unknown mechanisms of fascia can achieve self-decompression.Therefore,no compartment syndrome will take place.We also emphasize that the ' muscle-swelling syndrome'should be strictly distinguished from the soft tissue necrosis caused by crush syndrome and acute limb vascular injury,so as to provide more precise treatment.We believe that without external restrictions such as casts,splints and compression bandages,the muscle-swelling syndrome can achieve self decompression by releasing the pressure in the compartment through tension blisters,and there is no need for fasciotomy.

Objective:To explore the characteristics of cognitive function in patients with early onset and adult onset schizophrenia.Methods:In this cross-sectional study, 546 patients with schizophrenia who met the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition (DSM-Ⅳ) were selected.Among them, 62 cases were defined as early onset schizophrenia (EOS, age of onset＜18 years) and 175 patients were defined as adult onset schizophrenia (AOS, age of onset≥25 years).Patients underwent clinical assessments with the Positive and Negative Symptom Scale (PANSS) and the Personal and Social Performance Scale (PSP), and comprehensive neuropsychological assessments.Results:The EOS patients got lower scores in motor function-PEGDOM T score [ (26±12) vs. (30±11), P＜0.01], working memory-average T score of PASAT and WMSSP[ (34±12) vs. (38±10), P＜0.05]and executive function (inhibition) -Stroop T score [ (35±12) vs. (39±10), P＜0.05]than AOS patients.No differences were fund in processing speed, verbal memory and learning, visual memory and learning (Ps＞0.05) between the two groups.Conclusion:It suggests that the EOS patients have worse motor function, working memory and inhibition.

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of the long-term intermittent maintenance treatment with tacrolimus 0.03％ ointment versus traditional treatment in reducing relapses and prolonging the recurrence interval in children with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (AD).Methods A two-phase randomized,open-labelled,controlled clinical trial was conducted from September 2012 to November 2013.In the first phase,a total of 171 children aged 2-15 years with moderate to severe AD were enrolled from 7 hospitals in China,and received conventional treatment with tacrolimus 0.03％ ointment twice a day for 2-6 weeks.At the end of the treatment,the patients who achieved an investigator's global assessment (IGA) score ≤ 2 (n =125) were randomly classified into 2 groups to receive the second-phase treatment:test group (n =62) receiving intermittent maintenance treatment with tacrolimus 0.03％ ointment twice a week (Monday and Thursday),and control group (n =63) receiving no treatment.If the patients in the 2 groups experienced relapse,they received conventional treatment with tacrolimus 0.03％ ointment twice a day.The overall observation period was 6 months.The primary endpoint was the time to the first relapse,which was defined as the number of days from the end of the first-phase treatment to the first relapse.The secondary endpoints included the number of relapses at the second-phase trial,the disease severity at the time of relapse,the duration of relapse,the pruritus score at the time of relapse,the total amount of tacrolimus ointment used,the total response rate at the second-phase trial,and the incidence of adverse events.Results A total of 125 children with AD were enrolled into the second-phase trial,and 121 of them completed the follow-up.Among the 121 patients,the recurrence rate was significantly lower in the test group (25/60,41.7％) than in the control group (46/61,75.4％;x2 =14.20,P ＜ 0.001).The time to the first relapse was significantly longer in the test group (46.9 ± 37.7 d) than in the control group (28.8 ± 32.3 d;Z =1 093.50,P =0.020).The total number of recurrence was 31 and 86 in the test group and control group respectively,and the mean number of recurrence in each patient was significantly lower in the test group (0.52 ± 0.68) than in the control group (1.41 ± 1.23,t =4.96,P ＜ 0.001).There were no significant differences between the two groups regarding disease severity during relapse (eczema area and severity index:Z =971.50,P =0.39),duration of relapse (Z =747.00,P =0.07),and pruritus score during relapse (Z =894.00,P =0.95).The therapeutic drug was tolerated well in all the children,and no tacrolimus-related serious adverse events occurred.Conclusion The intermittent maintenance treatment with tacrolimus 0.03％ ointment twice a week for 6 months can effectively and safely prevent and reduce relapses,and prolong the recurrence interval in children with moderate to severe AD.

In recent years, the etiology of periodontitis has tended to be based on the theory of flora imbalance. That is, periodontitis is not caused by specific bacteria but by the breakdown of the oral flora balance, which leads to an immune imbalance. Imbalanced bacterial flora cooperate with each other to produce virulent factors that destroy organism tissues and induce immune cells to produce abnormal levels of cytokines, causing greater damage. This article reviews the initiation of a flora imbalance, the interaction between bacteria, the immune damage of the host and the prevention and treatment of the flora imbalance. The literature review shows that peroxidase released by inflammatory reactions, host immune responses to pathogenic microorganisms and some systemic factors, such as diabetes, can trigger flora imbalance. As a result, ion transport, substance synthesis and metabolism of bacteria change; virulence factors increase; and the oral flora balance is disrupted. Red complex bacteria enter gingival epithelial cells, produce adhesin, and selectively inhibit the expression of specific chemokines, which is beneficial for other pathogenic bacteria to enter gingival epithelial cells. Toxicity factors increase throughout the body, directly destroying body tissues and inducing innate and adaptive immune responses, thus causing related immune damage. The dysbacteriosis model of periodontitis provides a new idea for the prevention and treatment of periodontitis, such as using biological factors, bacteriophages, probiotics and other methods to reduce the number of periodontal pathogens to restore the steady state of periodontal flora.

Objective    To explore the relationship between glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level and blood glucose fluctuations after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and adverse events in non-diabetic patients, thus providing theoretical support for intensive preoperative blood glucose management in patients undergoing CABG surgery. Methods    A total of 304 patients undergoing CABG with or without valvular surgery from October 2013 to December 2017 were enrolled in this prospective, single-center, observational cohort study. We classified them into two different groups which were a low-level group and a high-level group according to the HbA1c level. There were 102 males and 37 females, aged 36–85 (61.5±9.5) years in the low-level group, and 118 males and 47 females aged 34–85 (63.1±9.4) years in the high-level group. The main results were different in hospital mortality and perioperative complications including in-hospital death, myocardial infarction, sternal incision infection, new stroke, new-onset renal failure and multiple organ failure. To assess the effects of confounding factors, multivariate logistic regression analysis was used. Results     Postoperative blood glucose fluctuation was more pronounced in the high-level group than that in the low-level group before admission [0.8 (0.6, 1.2) mmol/L vs. 1.0 (0.8, 1.8) mmol/L, P<0.01]. This study also suggested that the  incidence of major adverse events was significantly lower in the low-level group compared with the high-level group (P=0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analyses to correct the influence of other confounding factors showed that HbA1c (OR=2.773, P=0.002) and postoperative blood glucose fluctuations (OR=3.091, P<0.001) could still predict the occurrence of postoperative adverse events. Conclusion    HbA1c on admission can effectively predict blood glucose fluctuations in 24 hours after surgery. Secondly, HbA1c on admission and postoperative blood glucose fluctuations can further predict postoperative adverse events. It is suggested that we control the patient's preoperative HbA1c at a low level, which is beneficial to control postoperative blood glucose fluctuation and postoperative adverse events.
