Objective:To explore the accuracy of a self-made color chart to calculate the amount of blood in the liposuction fluid of patients undergoing liposuction surgery.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 60 female patients with a median age of 33 (20-50) years who underwent liposuction surgery at Baiyu Medical Beauty Hospital in Milan, Sichuan from December 2022 to December 2023. The self-made color chart consisted of continuous color photos of liposuction bottles contained different amounts of blood, included continuous color charts with fat to water ratios of 3∶1, 2∶1 and 1∶1. The above chart was used to detect the liposuction solution in 60 clinical liposuction patients and to calculate the blood content. At the same time, the above specimens underwent laboratory testing for red blood cell counting. The differences and correlations were compared between two methods for detecting the amount of blood in liposuction solution.Results:The results showed that the blood content of the liposuction solution was (44.3±15.2), (46.9±20.6), (42.9±19.2) ml based on the color chart with a ratio of 3∶1, 2∶1 and 1∶1, respectively. The red blood cell count laboratory test results were (53.6±15.3), (55.2±20.7), (53.5±18.1) ml, respectively, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). The results of the two methods showed a linear positive correlation ( Y=1.1 X+5.6, R2=0.989, P<0.01). Conclusion:A self-made color chart can be used to quickly and accurately calculate the blood content in liposuction solution.

Objective To investigate the relationship between volume of fracture fragment and surgical methods in patients with radial head fracture.Methods A retrospective study was conducted of the 60 patients with radial head fracture of Mason type Ⅲ who had been admitted to the Department of Hand Surgery,Wuhan Pu'ai Hospital from January 2013 to December 2016.They were 28 males and 32 females,aged from 26 to 71 years (average,54.5 years).Of them,41 underwent open reduction and internal fixation (incision group) and 19 radial head replacement (replacement group).The volumes of radial head and fracture fragment were measured by CT scan and three-dimensional reconstruction of the elbow joint before operation.A volume-weighted ratio R corresponding to a specific radial head fragment was calculated.Correlation between the volume-weighted ratio R of the radial head fragment and the Broberg-Morrey elbow function score was calculated.At the last follow-up,the Broberg-Morrey elbow function score was used to assess the efficacy and complications were recorded in the 2 groups.Results All the 60 patients were followed up for 20 to 36 months (mean,28.6 months).At the last follow-up,the Broberg-Morrey elbow function score was 86.5 ±1.3 points (from 72 to 91 points) for the incision group and 93.6 ± 1.4 points (from 78 to 95 points) for the replacement group;the complication rate was 17.1％ (7/41) for the former and 15.8％ (3/19) for the latter.There was a linear relationship between the volume-weighted ratio R of the radial head fragment and the Broberg-Morrey elbow function score in the incision group.The linear regression equation between the two was:y=65.63+0.67x (R2=0.85,P=0.0006).There was no linear relationship between the volume-weighted ratio R of the radial head fragment and the Broberg-Morrey elbow function score in the replacement group (P =0.053).When the Broberg-Morrey elbow joint function score (93.6 points) for the replacement group was substituted into the linear regression equation y =65.63 + 0.67x (y =93.6),x =41.7.Conclusions In the patients with radial head fracture of Mason type Ⅲ,open reduction and internal fixation may lead to a better prognosis for those with a volume ratio ≥41.7 between the radial head and fracture fragment while radial head replacement may lead to a better prognosis for those with a volume ratio ＜41.7 between the radial head and fracture fragment and for those elderly ones with osteoporosis.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical effect and safety of Xuebijing injection in the treatment of moderate and se-vere infection of stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ pressure ulcer. METHODS:A total of 130 cases of moderate and severe infection of stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ pres-sure ulcer admitted to our hospital from Jul. 2011 and Jun. 2016 were randomly divided into observation group and control group, with 65 cases in each group. Control group was treated with 0.5%Iodophor disinfectant to disinfect the sore surface,given wet ster-ile gauze soaked with 0.5% Iodophor disinfectant to compress sore surface for 30 min,and then given Aikangfu absorptive silver ion antibacterial healing dressing to fill wound,changed dressing after 2/3 was soaked. Observation group was additionally given Xuebijing injection 50 mL added into normal saline 100 mL intravenously for 30-40 min,2-3 times a day,for consecutive 7 days,on the basis of control group. Treatment course of both groups lasted for 4 weeks. The clinical efficacy,the score of pres-sure ulcer scale for healing(PUSH),debridement time,the time of local symptom and SIRS disappearance as well as the occur-rence of ADR were compared between 2 groups. RESULTS:The total response rate of observation group(93.85%)was signifi-cantly higher than that of control group (80.00%),and debridement time,the time of local symptom and SIRS disappearance were all significantly shorter than control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). Before treatment,there was no statisti-cal significance in PUSH score between 2 groups (P>0.05). After 1-4 weeks of treatment,PUSH score of 2 groups was de-creased significantly compared to before treatment,and the score of observation group was significantly lower than that of con-trol group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). No obvious ADR was found in 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS:For moderate and severe infection of stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ pressure ulcer,Xuebijing injection effectively reduces inflammatory exudation,improves the ab-sorption of necrotic tissue,relieves local symptom and systematic inflammatory reaction,promotes the healing of pressure ulcers and has good clinical effect and safety.

Objective To detect the content of plasma ctDNA and the mutation rate of BRAF V600E in plasma of patients with thyroid carcinoma ,and to explore its clinical significance. Methods Plasma ctDNA was extracted from 16 patients with thyroid carcinoma and 59 patients with benign thyroid nodules by using the blood genomic DNA Extraction Kit. The ctDNA content was detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR ,and the mutation of circulating BRAF V600E was detected by PCR and sequencing. Then the clinical significance was analyzed by combined detection analysis. Results The content of ctDNA in thyroid cancer group was significantly higher than that in benign nodule group (P < 0.01). BRAF V600E mutation detection showed that the mutation rate was 43.75%,but benign nodules had no mutation. Parallel combined detection improved the sensitivity and the specific-ity of the combined detection was higher. Conclusion Combined detection of ctDNA and BRAF V600E in plasma is helpful for differential diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules.
