Objective:To investigate the protocol and clinical efficacy of hair follicle-bearing microskin (HF-MS) transplantation in the treatment of hypertrophic scars.Methods:Prospective randomized controlled trial. From January to November 2024, patients with hypertrophic scars were recruited from the Medical Cosmetic Center of Affiliated Hangzhou First People’s Hospital with Westlake University School of Medicine and the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery of Ningbo Sixth Hospital. Patients were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group using a random number table. In the observation group, 1.0 mm punch decompression was performed on the hypertrophic scar area, followed by implantation of HF-MS extracted from the scalp donor site using follicular unit excision (FUE) into the decompression pores. The control group underwent only 1.0 mm punch decompression. Vancouver scar scale (VSS) scores (total score 0-15, higher scores indicating more severe scarring) were assessed preoperatively and at 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively. Efficacy at 6 months, improvement in hypertrophic scar area, hair survival rate (observation group), adverse reactions, and patients’ satisfaction rates were evaluated. Categorical data were expressed as frequency (%) and analyzed using chi-square tests; normally distributed measurement data were expressed as Mean ± SD and analyzed using independent samples t-tests. Results:A total of 50 patients were included (25 per group), with 22 males and 28 females, aged 18-60 years (mean age: 33 years). The effective rate was 92% (23/25) in the observation group and 68% (17/25) in the control group, showing a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). Preoperative VSS scores did not differ significantly between the observation and control groups [(6.67±3.19) vs. (7.12±2.89), P>0.05]. At 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively, the observation group had VSS scores of (5.48±2.60), (4.64±2.39), and (3.80±2.10), respectively, compared to (6.36±2.53), (5.84±2.28), and (5.32±2.09) in the control group. The 6-month postoperative VSS scores differed significantly between groups ( P<0.05). Preoperative hypertrophic scar areas showed no significant difference [(5.75±2.83) cm 2 vs. (6.91±3.31) cm 2,P>0.05]. At 6 months postoperatively, the observation group had significantly smaller scar areas than the control group [(3.15±1.55) cm 2 vs. (5.37±2.93) cm 2,P<0.01]. The average hair survival rate in the observation group was 41% at 6 months. Adverse reactions occurred in 3 cases in the observation group (2 skin indurations, 1 hyperpigmentation) and 7 cases in the control group (4 hyperpigmentation, 2 skin atrophy, 1 skin induration). The observation group had a significantly lower adverse reaction rate [12% (3/25) vs. 28% (7/25), P<0.05]. Patient satisfaction rates were 88% (22/25) in the observation group and 64% (16/25) in the control group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:HF-MS transplantation demonstrates definitive clinical efficacy in treating hypertrophic scars, effectively improving scar morphology, clinical symptoms, and patient quality of life.

Objective To compare and analyze the supply of blood collection and clinical blood demand in Hangzhou during 2011-2016,and to put forward some countermeasures and suggestions.Methods The related data of blood collection in blood center and the indexs of clinical blood demand in all hospitals in Hangzhou were collected during 2011-2016,and the growth rates of both of them were compared and analyzed.Results 1) The data of blood collection and supply was the lowest in 2012,and then increased year by year.The average annual growth of platelet collection and supply was 8.09％ and 8.47％,respectively,and the other indicators grew relatively gently.In 2016,the rate of blood donation reached 18.28 per thousand people.At the same period,the number of staff in institutions was basically stable.2) During 2011-2016,the blood demand of all hospitals in Hangzhoa maintained rapid growth.In Hangzhou,the number of hospitals increased by 10.65％ annually,and until 2016,there was an increase of 65.87％ over 2011.The average annual growth of the number of beds,the number of emergency patients and the number of inpatients increased by 10.21％,6.09％ and 11.40％ respectively.The growth rate of number of inpatients was higher than that of outpatient and emergency departments.Hospital employees remained at an average annual growth rate of nearly 10％.3) The clinical demand for blood increased significantly more higher than the growth of blood collection and supply.Conclusion Speed up the pace of the construction of blood supply,and keep pace with the construction of hospitals.Strengthening the publicity,health education and promotion models,in order to encourage more people,who are eligible for blood donation,to join the blood donation.And also strengthening personnel team building,improving overall work efficiency and level.
