Background Bacteria are the most diverse and widely sourced microorganisms in the indoor air of subway stations, where pathogenic bacteria can spread through the air, leading to increased health risks. Objective To understand the status and distribution characteristics of indoor air bacterial pollution in subway stations and compartments in a city of Central South China, and to provide a scientific basis for formulating intervention measures to address indoor air bacteria pollution in subways. Methods Three subway stations and the compartments of trains parking there in a city in Central South China were selected according to passenger flow for synchronous air sampling and monitoring. Temperature, humidity, wind speed, carbon dioxide (CO₂), fine particulate matter (PM_2.5), and inhalable particulate matter (PM₁₀) were measured by direct reading method. In accordance with the requirements of Examination methods for public places-Part 3: Airborne microorganisms (GB/T 18204.3-2013), air samples were collected at a flow rate of 28.3 L·min⁻¹, and total bacterial count was estimated. Bacterial microbial species were identified with a mass spectrometer and pathogenic bacteria were distinguished from non-pathogenic bacteria according to the Catalogue of pathogenic microorganisms transmitted to human beings issued by National Health Commission. Kruskal-Wallis H test was used to compare the subway hygiene indicators in different regions and time periods, and Bonferroni test was used for pairwise comparison. Spearman correlation test was used to evaluate the correlation between CO₂ concentration and total bacterial count. Results The pass rates were 100.0% for airborne total bacteria count, PM_2.5, and PM₁₀ in the subway stations and train compartments, 94.4% for temperature and wind speed, 98.6% for CO₂, but 0% for humidity. The overall median (P₂₅, P₇₅) total bacteria count was 177 (138,262) CFU·m⁻³. Specifically, the total bacteria count was higher in station halls than in platforms, and higher during morning peak hours than during evening peak hours (P<0.05). A total of 874 strains and 82 species were identified by automatic microbial mass spectrometry. The results of identification were all over 9 points, and the predominant bacteria in the air were Micrococcus luteus (52.2%) and Staphylococcus hominis (9.8%). Three pathogens, Acinetobacter baumannii (0.3%), Corynebacterium striatum (0.1%), and Staphylococcus epidermidis bacilli (2.2%) were detected in 23 samples (2.6%), and the associated locations were mainly distributed in train compartments during evening rush hours. Conclusion The total bacteria count in indoor air varies by monitoring sites of subway stations and time periods, and there is a risk of opportunistic bacterial infection. Attention should be paid to cleaning and disinfection during peak passenger flow hours in all areas.

Objective:To investigate pediatric colonoscopy procedures and the associated changes in the disease spectrum.Methods:The clinical data of 1 087 children who underwent pediatric colonoscopy at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University and Yili Prefecture Friendship Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University from January 2012 to December 2022 were retrospectively collected. Patients were divided into 0-3 ( n=165), 4-6 ( n=307), 7-10 ( n=275) and 11-14 ( n=340) years groups according to their age, and also divided into two time periods according to the examination time point, 2012-2017 ( n=302) and 2018-2022 ( n=785) groups. Indicators that were observed and analyzed included the primary reasons for colonoscopy, types and proportions of abnormalities, distribution of cases and symptoms by period and age group, and disease diagnosis and treatment before and after colonoscopy. Results:A total of 1 238 colonoscopies were completed in 1 087 children. Blood in the stool was the most common cause (337/1 087, 31.00%). The most abnormalities were found in intestinal polyps (190/1 087, 17.48%) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) (181/1 087, 16.65%), as well as in 95 cases (95/1 087, 8.74%) who were confirmed autism and requested colonoscopy placement for fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT). There were differences in case distribution and symptoms among different age groups: polyps were most common in the 0-3 years group (75/165, 45.45%), and IBD was most common in the 11-14 years group (97/340, 28.53%). Compared with 2012-2017, during 2018-2022, the proportion of colonoscopies for polyps in children decreased [from 49.67% (150/302) to 5.10% (40/785), P<0.001], while the proportion for IBD increased [from 12.25% (37/302) to 18.34% (144/785), P=0.016], and autism requiring colonoscopic duct placement for FMT increased [from 2.32% (7/302) to 11.21% (88/785), P<0.001]. Conclusion:Pediatric colonoscopy plays an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of pediatric diseases. With the increasing clinical application demands, diversified procedures such as pre-FMT colonoscopic duct placement are becoming important directions for the future development of pediatric colonoscopy.

Objective:To investigate the surgical treatment methods of femoral artery pseudoaneurysm combined with infectious wounds and to evaluate the clinical effects.Methods:The retrospective observational research method was used. Twelve patients with femoral artery pseudoaneurysm combined with infectious wounds who met the inclusion criteria were admitted to Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine Wuxi Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital (Affiliated Hospital of Jiangnan University) from October 2014 to September 2022, including 6 males and 6 females, aged from 46 to 78 years. In the primary operation, debridement, tumor resection, and artery suture/venous grafting to repair the artery/artery ligation were performed, and the wound area after tumor resection ranged from 4.0 cm×1.5 cm to 12.0 cm×6.5 cm. Wounds that could be sutured were treated with tension reduction suture and extracutaneous continuous vacuum sealing drainage (VSD), while large wounds that could not be sutured were treated with VSD to control infection. In the secondary operation, tension reduction suture was performed to repair the wounds that could be sutured; large wounds were repaired with adjacent translocated flaps with area of 9.0 cm×5.0 cm to 15.0 cm×7.0 cm. Additionally, when the length of the exposed femoral artery was equal to or over 3.0 cm, the wounds were repaired with additional rectus femoris muscle flap with length of 15.0 to 18.0 cm. The donor areas of the flaps were directly sutured. The wound with artery ligation was treated with stamp skin grafting and continuous VSD. The bacterial culture results of the wound exudate samples on admission were recorded. The intraoperative blood loss, the location of femoral artery rupture, the artery treatment method, and the wound repair method in the primary operation were recorded, and the durations of catheter lavage, catheter drainage, and VSD treatment, and the drainage volume after the operation were recorded. The repair method of wounds in the secondary operation, the durations of catheter drainage and VSD treatment, and the total drainage volume after the operation were recorded. The survivals of flap/muscle flap/stamp skin grafts were observed, and the wound healing time was recorded. Follow-up after discharge was performed to evaluate the quality of wound healing and the walking function and to check whether the pulsatile mass disappeared. B-ultrasound or computed tomography angiography (CTA) was performed again to observe potential pseudoaneurysm recurrence and evaluate the patency of blood flow of the femoral artery.Results:The bacterial culture results of wound exudate samples of all the patients were positive on admission. The blood loss was 150 to 750 mL in the primary operation. The arterial ruptures were located in the femoral artery in 8 cases, in the external iliac artery in 2 cases, and in the femoral arteriovenous fistula in 2 cases. Six cases received direct artery suture, 4 cases received autologous great saphenous vein grafting to repair the artery, 1 case received autologous great saphenous vein bypass surgery, and 1 case received artery ligation. The primary wound suture was performed in 4 cases, along with catheter lavage for 3 to 5 days, catheter drainage for 4 to 6 days, VSD treatment for 5 to 7 days, and a total drainage volume of 80 to 450 mL after the surgery. In the secondary operation, the wounds were sutured directly in 3 cases along with catheter drainage for 2 to 3 days, the wound was repaired with scalp stamp skin graft and VSD treatment for 5 days in 1 case, the wounds were repaired with adjacent translocated flaps in 2 cases with catheter drainage for 2 to 3 days, and the wounds were repaired with rectus femoris muscle flaps+adjacent translocated flaps in 2 cases with catheter drainage for 3 to 5 days . The total drainage volume after the secondary operation ranged from 150 to 400 mL. All the skin flaps/muscle flaps/skin grafts survived after operation. The wound healing time ranged from 15 to 36 days after the primary operation. Follow-up of 2 to 8 months after discharge showed that the wounds of all patients healed well. One patient who underwent femoral artery ligation had calf amputation due to foot ischemic necrosis, and the rest of the patients regained normal walking ability. The pulsatile mass disappeared in inguinal region of all patients. B-ultrasound or CTA re-examination in 6 patients showed that the blood flow of femoral artery had good patency, and there was no pseudoaneurysm recurrence.Conclusions:Early debridement, tumor resection, and individualized artery treatment should be performed in patients with femoral artery pseudoaneurysm combined with infected wounds. Besides, proper drainage and personalized repair strategy should be conducted according to the wound condition to achieve a good outcome.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility and effectiveness of incision subcutaneous porous catheter combined with ropivacaine analgesia in enhanced recovery after laparoscopic gastrointestinal surgery.Methods:The clinical data of 140 patients underwent gastrointestinal surgery from August 2021 to April 2022 in Shanghai Fourth People′s Hospital, School of Medicine, Tongji University were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 70 patients were given routine postoperative analgesia (control group), and 70 patients were given incision subcutaneous porous catheter combined with ropivacaine analgesia on the basis of routine postoperative analgesia (observation group). The visual analogue score (VAS) 4, 24, 32, 48, 56 and 72 h after operation was evaluated; and the complications of subcutaneous catheterization, incision infection, postoperative nausea vomiting, neurological symptoms, time to extubation, patient satisfaction degree, recovery time of intestinal function and hospital stay were recorded.Results:The VAS 4, 24, 32, 48, 56 and 72 h after operation in observation group was significantly lower than that in control group: 1.000 (- 0.250, 2.250) scores vs. 1.000 (- 1.000, 3.000) scores, 2.000 (1.000, 3.000) scores vs. 4.000 (2.000, 6.000) scores, 1.000 (0.000, 2.000) scores vs. 3.000 (1.000, 5.000) scores, 2.000 (1.000, 3.000) scores vs. 3.000 (1.750, 4.250) scores, (1.100 ± 0.934) scores vs. (2.085 ± 0.943) scores and (0.985 ± 0.842) scores vs. (1.814 ± 0.921) scores, and there was statistical difference ( P<0.05 or <0.01). The recovery time of intestinal function and hospital stay in observation group were significantly shorter than that that in control group: (1.743 ± 0.557) d vs. (2.200 ± 0.714) d and (8.043 ± 1.160) d vs. (8.757 ± 1.221) d, and there were statistical difference ( P<0.01); there were no statistical differences in the rate of incision infection, incidence of postoperative nausea vomiting, time to extubation and patient dissatisfaction rate between two groups ( P>0.05); there were no the complications of subcutaneous catheterization and neurological symptoms in two groups. Conclusions:The incision subcutaneous porous catheter combined with ropivacaine analgesia after laparoscopic gastrointestinal surgery is a safe, effective and feasible method. Multimodal analgesia under enhanced recovery after surgery can increase the postoperative recovery after gastrointestinal operations and shorten the postoperative hospital stay.

Objective:To study the epidemiological features of local influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 epidemic strains through analyzing the changes in lineages and to analyze how well the vaccine strains were matched to the circulating strains in Hangzhou.Methods:Of 1 112 clinical specimens from laboratory-confirmed A(H1N1)pdm09 infections in Hangzhou in consecutive seasons from 2009 to 2020, 208 (18.7%) with high viral load (Ct value <30) were randomly selected from 10 influenza epidemics for full-length hemagglutinin gene ( HA) gene sequencing. Genetic variation, evolution and lineage changes of these representative local strains were analyzed by comparison with vaccine strains and reference strains. Results:Since the 2009 pandemic, A(H1N1)pdm09 had become one of the predominant viruses causing seasonal influenza and been reported to co-circulate with influenza A(H3N2) and influenza B viruses in Hangzhou in the past decade. It caused 10 local influenza epidemics in the 12 consecutive seasons from 2009 to 2020. HA gene sequencing revealed complex sources and rapid variation of the local A(H1N1)pdm09 strains. The main epidemic strains often genetically drifted from the recommended northern hemisphere vaccine strains due to lineage changes. Conclusions:This study suggested that it was essential to update the recommended vaccine strains year by year. Besides, enhanced periodic monitoring of influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 strains circulating in the region was important for the prevention and control of influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 infection in the next epidemic season.

Objective To investigate the effect of BIS-guided closed-loop target-controlled infusion on perioperative Th1/Th2 balance in elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic radical gastrectomy under different anesthesia and sedation depths. Methods We applied random number table method to divide 73 elderly patients undergoing elective laparoscopic radical gastrectomy into BIS closed-loop target-controlled infusion group with BIS value of 55(group H, n=36) and BIS value of 45(group L, n=37).Intravenous blood samples were collected immediately before surgery (T1), 2h after surgery (T2), 24h after surgery (T3) and 72h after surgery (T4).IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α and IFN-γ were determined by flow cytometry microsphere array.We compared operation duration, postoperative PACU stay time and postoperative hospitalization time between two groups. Results Compared with T1, IL-6 and IL-10 concentration in group H at T2, T3 and T4 significantly increased (P < 0.05), IL-4 and TNF-α in group H at T4 were significantly increased (P < 0.05), IL-2 and IFN-γ in group H at T2 and T4 were significantly increased (P < 0.05), the concentration of IL-6 and IL-10 in group L at T2, T3 and T4 were increased (P < 0.05), IL-2 in group L at T4 was decreased (P < 0.05), and IFN-γ/IL-6 in two groups were decreased at T2, T3 and T4(P < 0.05).Compared with group L, IL-6 and IL-10 in group H were significantly increased at T2(P < 0.05), IFN-γ/IL-6 in group H was significantly decreased (P < 0.05), IL-2 and IL-10 in group H were significantly increased at T4(P < 0.05).Operation duration, postoperative PACU stay time and postoperative hospitalization time had no statistical significance between two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion The anesthesia and sedation depth of BIS-guided closed-loop target-controlled infusion set at 45 is better than 55 in maintaining Th1/Th2 balance in elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic radical gastrectomy, but it has no obvious effect on long-term prognosis.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological and etiological characteristics of dengue fever in Hangzhou in 2018.Methods:RT-PCR was used to detect the nucleic acids and analyze the serotypes of dengue viruses (DENV) in serum samples collected from dengue fever cases. Phylogenetic trees based on the E gene sequences of DENV isolated from the serum samples were then constructed and analyzed. Epidemiological characteristics of these dengue fever cases were analyzed. Results:A total of 80 cases of dengue fever were detected in Hangzhou in 2018 with 55 imported cases and 25 indigenous cases (24 caused by DENV-1 and one by DENV-3). These indigenous cases mainly occurred during late July to early October with people above 50 years old accounting for 68%. Phylogenetic analysis showed that DENV-1 strains isolated from the indigenous cases in Yuhang, Jianggan-Shangcheng and Qiantang districts all belonged to genotype Ⅰ, and were respectively closely related to the strains from Indonesia in 2015, Myanmar in 2017, Ningbo in 2018 and Hangzhou imported cases from Thailand in 2018. The indigenous DENV-3 strain belonged to genotype Ⅲ, and shared 99.5% homology with the Singapore strain in 2013.Conclusions:Imported cases accounted for a large fraction of the dengue fever cases in Hangzhou, which brought a high risk to indigenous outbreak. Due to multiple imported cases, the current epidemic presented a characteristic of multiple small-scale outbreaks.

Objective:To study the clinicopathologic features and MYD88 L265P mutation status of intravascular large B cell lymphoma (IVLBCL).Methods:Fourteen cases of IVLBCLs were diagnosed from March 2014 to December 2019 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University. The clinicopathologic features and prognosis were analyzed. Epstein-Barr virus encoded RNAs and MYD88 L265P mutation status were detected using in situ hybridization and Sanger sequencing, respectively. The follow-up data were obtained by telephone interview.Results:There were 6 males and 8 females with a median age of 62 years (range: 48-73 years). The involved anatomic locations were demonstrated by positron emission tomography-computed tomography, including adrenal gland (7/14), bone (6/14), central nerve system (4/14), skin (3/14), female reproductive system (3/14), local lymph nodes (3/14), prostate (2/14), liver and spleen (2/14), sphenoid sinus (1/14), penis (1/14), bladder (1/14), and right lung (1/14). Fever was the most common symptom (7/14), followed by neurologic symptoms and lower abdominal pain (2/14 each). The reminder symptoms included rash with edema, legs weakness and numbness, or postmenopausal bleeding (1/14 each). Eleven cases were at Lugano stage Ⅳ. Four cases were associated with the hemophagocytic syndrome, while 6 cases with bone marrow involved. Microscopically, the tumor cells were generally concentrated within the small-to-medium vascular lumens or sinusoids; they had centroblast-like appearance and showed large round or oval nuclei with slightly irregularities, coarse chromatin and 1-3 distinct nucleoli. One exception was the one case with an embryoid nuclei, reminiscent of anaplastic large cell lymphoma. The mitosis was not uncommon. Extravascular neoplastic cells were seen in two cases. The neutrophils could be appreciable in most of the cases (10/14). Immunophenotyping showed that CD20 and CD79α were diffusely and strongly positive in 14 cases; 12 cases were classified as the non-GCB subtype; 6 out of the 11 cases were double expressor lymphoma; 7 out of the 12 cases were CD5-positive. Twelve cases were EBER negative. The MYD88 L265P mutation was detected in 1 case (1/10). The duration of the follow-up ranged from 0.5 to 24.0 months, and 11 patients survived and 3 died.Conclusions:IVLBCL is rare. The most common type of IVLBCL in China is Asian type with scant tumor cells. Combination of clinical and immunohistochemical features can avoid most, if not all, misdiagnoses and missed diagnoses. Some IVLBCL cases may harbor the MYD88 L265P mutation, but the prevalence of MYD88 L265P mutation in the population still warrants additional studies.

Objective:To compare the difference of pro-healing effect of porcine urinary bladder matrix (UBM) and porcine acellular dermal matrix (ADM) on full-thickness skin defect wounds in diabetic mice.Methods:Thirty-six type 2 diabetic BKS db/db mice aged 10 weeks were divided into UBM group and ADM group according to the random number table, with 18 mice in each group and preoperative molarity of non-fasting blood glucose higher than 16.6 mmol/L. A circular full-thickness skin defect wound with 6 mm in diameter was made on the back of each mouse, and porcine UBM and porcine ADM scaffolds were implanted into the wounds of both groups correspondingly. Immediately after operation and on post operation day (POD) 7, 14, and 28, wounds were observed generally. On POD 7, 14, and 28, 6 mice of each group were collected respectively to calculate the rate of wound epithelialization, and then the corresponding mice were sacrificed after calculation, and the wound tissue was harvested to make slices. Six slices of the mice in the 2 groups on POD 7 and 14 were respectively collected to stain with haematoxylin-eosin (HE), and 6 slices on POD 7 and 28 had Masson′s staining, which were used to observe histopathological changes and scaffold degradation. On POD 7 and 14, 24 slices of each mouse in the 2 groups were collected respectively to detect alpha smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and CD31 positive expression denoting the growth of myofibroblasts and neovessels respectively and observe the distribution and activation of macrophages with immunohistochemical staining. The wound tissue of mice in the 2 groups on POD 7 and 14 was harvested to detect mRNA expressions of fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF-2), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), and transforming growth factor β 1 (TGF-β 1) by real-time fluorescence quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. The sample number of above-mentioned indexes in each group at each time point was 6. Data were statistically analyzed with analysis of variance for factorial design, t test, and Bonferroni correction. Results:(1) General observation showed that integration of UBM scaffold into the wounds of mice in UBM group on most time points was superior, and integration of ADM scaffold into the wounds of mice in ADM group on most time points was inferior. On POD 28, epidermis still did not form in some region of scaffold surface of wounds of mice in ADM group, while wounds of mice in UBM group were completely epithelialized. On POD 7, 14, and 28, wound epithelialization rates of mice in UBM group were respectively (22.4±6.4)%, (68.6±12.4)%, and 100.0%, all significantly higher than (4.5±2.2)%, (23.6±4.6)%, and (64.2±13.2)% in ADM group ( t=7.427, 9.665, 7.655, P<0.01). (2) HE staining and Masson′s staining showed that a large number of cells appeared in wound scaffold of mice in UBM group on POD 7; cells distributed in the whole region of UBM scaffold on POD 14; dermal tissue with structure similar to normal skin formed in the wounds and the fibrous morph of UBM scaffolds disappeared on POD 28. Only a small number of cells appeared in inside of wound scaffolds of mice in ADM group on POD 7; on POD 14, cells were sparsely distributed in ADM scaffolds; on POD 28, the morph of originally robust collagen fiber of ADM scaffolds was still clear and visible. (3) On POD 7, a large number of accumulated myofibroblasts and neovessels appeared in the lower layers of scaffolds of wounds of mice in UBM group; on POD 14, evenly distributed myofibroblasts and neovessels appeared in the upper layers of UBM scaffolds, and most vessels were perfused. On POD 7 and 14, myofibroblasts were sparsely distributed in scaffolds of wounds of mice in ADM group with no or a few neovascular structures perfused unobviously. On POD 7 and 14, α-SMA positive expressions in scaffolds of wounds of mice in UBM group were significantly higher than those in ADM group ( t=25.340, 6.651, P<0.01); CD31 positive expressions were also significantly higher than those in ADM group ( t=34.225, 10.581, P<0.01). (4) On POD 7, a large number of macrophages appeared in the lower layers of scaffolds of wounds of mice in UBM group; on POD 14, macrophages infiltrated into the internal region of UBM scaffolds, and M2 polarization occured without M1 polarization. On POD 7, a small number of macrophages appeared in the bottom of scaffolds of wounds of mice in ADM group; on POD 14, macrophages were few in internal region of ADM scaffold, and neither M2 polarization nor M1 polarization occurred. (5) On POD 7 and 14, mRNA expressions of FGF-2, VEGF, PDGF, and TGF-β 1 in the wound tissue of mice in UBM group were all significantly higher than those in ADM group ( t=7.007, 14.770, 10.670, 8.939; 7.174, 7.770, 4.374, 4.501, P<0.01). Conclusions:Porcine UBM scaffold is better than porcine ADM in facilitating wound repair and dermis reconstruction of full-thickness skin defects in diabetic mice through the induction of myofibroblasts and macrophages immigration, the promotion of neovascularization and expression of pro-healing growth factors.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of different modes of continuous negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) on venous ulcer wounds of lower limbs, and to analyze the influencing factors.Methods:From January 2018 to December 2019, 53 patients with venous ulcer of lower limbs who met the inclusion criteria and hospitalized in the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangnan University were recruited in this prospective randomized controlled study. According to the random number table, the patients were divided into single negative pressure therapy (SNPT) group (19 patients, 11 males and 8 females), cyclic alternating negative pressure therapy (CANPT) group (17 patients, 12 males and 5 females), and routine dressing change (RDC) group (17 patients, 10 males and 7 females), aged (47±11), (49±10), and (47±10) years respectively. After admission, patients in SNPT group were given continuous NPWT with the single negative pressure setting at -13.3 kPa, patients in CANPT group were also given continuous NPWT but with the cyclic alternating negative pressure setting from -16.0 to -10.7 kPa, while patients in RDC group were given dressing change with vaseline gauze soaked with iodophor. The wound healing rate was calculated on treatment day 7 and 14. Transcutaneous oxygen pressure (TcPO 2) around the wound was detected by TcPO 2 meter before treatment and on treatment day 7 and 14. The wound exudate/drainage fluid was collected on treatment day 1, 4, 7, 10, and 14, with the pH value measured using a pH meter, and the volume of exudate/drainage fluid recorded. Before treatment and on treatment day 7 and 14, venous blood was collected to detect the serum levels of interleukin 1β (IL-1β), IL-6, tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α), transforming growth factor-β 1 (TGF-β 1), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF). Before treatment and on treatment day 7 and 14, wound exudates were collected for bacterial culture, and Visual Analogue Scale and Hamilton Anxiety Scale were used to evaluate the degree of wound pain and anxiety of patients respectively. The length of hospital stay and the total treatment cost were counted. Analysis of variance for repeated measurement, one-way analysis of variance, least significant difference test, Kruskal Wallis H test, Mann Whitney U test, chi-square test, Fisher′s exact probability method test, and Bonferroni correction were used to analyze the data. According to the wound healing rate on treatment day 14, the efficiency of patients were divided into two grades of significant healing with wound healing rate≥70% and non significant healing with wound healing rate<70%. According to the two categories of wound healing rate as dependent variables, the levels of TcPO 2, IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, TGF-β 1, VEGF, bFGF levels and bacterial detection, wound pain and anxiety before treatment, wound exudate/drainage fluid volume and pH value on treatment day 1 were taken as covariates, and binary classification multifactor logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors of significant wound healing. Results:(1) On treatment day 7, the wound healing rate of patients in SNPT group was (33±10) %, which was significantly higher than (24±9) % of RDC group ( P<0.05). On treatment day 14, the wound healing rates of patients in SNPT group and CANPT group were (71±15)% and (66±18)%, respectively, which were significantly higher than (45±19)% of RDC group ( P<0.01). (2) Compared with those of RDC group, the TcPO 2 value around the wound of patients was significantly increased in SNPT group on treatment day 14 and in CANPT group on treatment day 7 and 14 ( P<0.05 or P<0.01), the pH value of wound drainage fluid of patients was significantly decreased in SNPT group on treatment day 10 and 14 and in CANPT group on treatment day 7 and 14 ( P<0.05), the volume of wound drainage fluid of patients was significantly reduced in SNPT group on treatment day 10 and 14 and in CANPT group on treatment day 7, 10, and 14 ( Z=-4.060, -4.954, -2.413, -4.085, -4.756, P<0.05 or P<0.01), the serum levels of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α of patients were significantly decreased in SNPT group and CANPT group on treatment day 7 and 14 ( P<0.01), the serum level of TGF-β 1 of patients was significantly increased in CANPT group on treatment day 14 ( P<0.05), the serum levels of VEGF and bFGF were significantly increased in SNPT group and CANPT group on treatment day 14 ( P<0.01), the bacteria detection proportion of wound exudate, wound pain, and anxiety scores of patients were significantly decreased in SNPT group and CANPT group on treatment day 7 and 14 ( P<0.01). Compared between the negative pressure therapy two groups, except the wound pain score of patients in CANPT group was significantly lower than that in SNPT group ( P<0.01) on treatment day 7, the other indicators mentioned above were similar. (3) The length of hospital stay of patients in SNPT group was similar to that in CANPT group ( P>0.05), which were significantly shorter than the time in RDC group ( P<0.01). The total treatment cost of patients among the three groups was similar ( F=1.766, P>0.05). (4) Before treatment, the serum levels of TNF-α and bFGF, TcPO 2 around the wound, and the degree of wound pain were risk factors for significant wound healing (odds ratio=1.109, 0.950, 1.140, 2.169, 95% confidence interval=1.012-1.217, 0.912-0.988, 1.008-1.290, 1.288-3.651, P<0.05 or P<0.01). Conclusions:Clinical application of continuous NPWT under single negative pressure mode and cyclic alternating negative pressure mode has a positive effect on improving the wound base and healing rate of venous ulcer of lower limbs. But cyclic alternating negative pressure mode is significantly more effective than single negative pressure mode in improving TcPO 2 around the wound, reducing wound pH value, reducing exudate volume and relieving pain. The serum levels of TNF-α and bFGF, TcPO 2 around the wound and the degree of wound pain were the risk factors that affect the wound healing significantly.
