In recent years, the repair and reconstruction of destructive wounds have received widespread attention and significant progress has been made. However, some key technical bottlenecks still require to be explored and broken through, and the perfect and effective treatment strategies need to be established and standardized. This article briefly discusses the concept of destructive wounds, etiological diagnosis and treatment, injury assessment, principles and technical methods of repair and reconstruction, as well as the key difficult problems that need to be solved. The aim is to attract the attention and discussion of colleagues in the field, providing a reference for further improving the ability in repair and reconstruction of destructive wounds and optimizing the therapeutic effects.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of large medium thickness skin graft on the back and scalp replantation in the back donor area after complete resection of giant congenital melanoma nevus (GCMN) in children′s upper limbs.Methods:From April 2017 to may 2020, 16 pediatric patients with GCMN of upper limbs were treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Military Medical University, including 9 males and 7 females, aged from 2 years to 7 months to 12 years. Giant melanoma nevus area 14 cm×11 cm-23 cm×20 cm, the wound after removing the skin of giant melanocytic nevus of the limb was covered with vaseline oil gauze for 2-3 days, and then a large medium thickness skin graft was cut on the back with a drum skin extractor for transplantation. The wound in the back skin donor area was replanted with a blade thick scalp.Results:The effect of excision of giant nevus of upper limb and skin grafting on the wound of back medium thickness donor area in 16 pediatric patients was satisfactory, and there were no serious complications such as skin necrosis and poor survival. Plasma swelling was formed under the skin graft of one child′s limb, which healed after opening and drainage and three dressing changes. Anti-scar and rehabilitation treatment was performed on the limb and donor site.The patients were followed up for 6-18 months. There was no obvious scar hyperplasia and contracture in the skin graft area and donor area. The skin color and elasticity of the back and limb skin graft area were close to the normal skin around the wound, and the activities of elbow joint, wrist joint and interphalangeal joint were not limited. The parents of the pediatric were satisfied with the function and appearance of the limb skin graft area and back skin donor area of giant nevus.Conclusions:The function and appearance of large medium thickness skin graft on the back after excision of congenital giant nevus of upper limb in pediatric are better; There is no obvious scar formation after scalp replantation in the back donor area, and the repair effect is better.

Objective:To explore the clinical effects of expanded flap made by skin and soft tissue expander (hereinafter referred to as expander) in repairing the wounds with exposed titanium mesh after cranioplasty with titanium mesh.Methods:A retrospective observational study was conducted. From April 2015 to October 2019, 13 patients with wounds with exposed titanium mesh after cranioplasty with titanium mesh were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University, including 10 males and 3 females, aged 18 to 70 years. Exposure of titanium mesh occurred 3 months to 4 years after cranioplasty with titanium mesh. The wound area of exposed titanium mesh ranged from 1.5 cm×0.6 cm to 6.3 cm×6.0 cm. In the first stage, one or two square expanders with rated capacity of 50-200 mL were placed under the normal scalp 1 cm away from the edge of the wound surface of exposed titanium mesh. The water injection time was 2 to 3 months with the total water injection volume being 1.6 to 2.0 times of the rated capacity of expander. In the second stage, the expander was removed and the expanded flap (size ranging from 4.1 cm×1.8 cm to 9.1 cm×7.9 cm) was transferred to repair the wound of exposed titanium mesh. The placement site of the expander, the transfer form of the expanded flap, the postoperative wound healing of the titanium mesh exposed site, and the survival of expanded flap were recorded. The scar of the head incision and the appearance of head were followed up.Results:Among the patients in this group, the expanders of 7 were placed in the temporal region, while the other 6 were placed at the top. The 11 patients were treated with advanced expanded flap, while the other 2 patients were treated with pedicled expanded flap. The head wounds of patients in this group successfully healed with retaining of the titanium mesh. The wound was healed after dressing change in 1 patient with necrosis at the tip of the expanded flap. The expanded flaps of 12 patients survived after transfer. Patients in this group were followed up for 12 months after surgery, the exposed titanium meshes were retained, the incisions healed well with the scars concealed, the hair on the scalp grew well, and the appearance of head was comparatively good.Conclusions:Using expanded flap in the repair of the wounds with exposed titanium mesh after cranioplasty with titanium mesh can effectively cover the wound and retain the titanium mesh, achieving good function and appearance.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effects of skin-stretching device (hereinafter referred to as stretcher) combined with vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) in repairing diabetic foot wounds.Methods:From March 2016 to January 2020, 25 patients with diabetic foot wounds were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University, including 18 males and 7 females, with age of 40 to 70 years. After debridement, intermittent VSD was performed for 3 to 10 days, with negative pressure value of -10.67 kPa. Then, the wound area was 5.0 cm×3.0 cm to 10.0 cm×7.0 cm. After infection control and detumescence, the wound was treated with stretcher for 3 to 5 days. The wound area after stretching ranged from 5.0 cm×0.3 cm to 10.0 cm×0.5 cm. The wound was closed with full-thickness suture. Two weeks after the suturing operation, the healing grade of the foot wound of patients was observed, and the serious complications such as recurrence of ulcer wound and gangrene on the foot, scar condition of the wound were observed during follow-up.Results:Two weeks after the suturing operation, the wounds of 23 patients were healed with grade A. Soft tissue infection ulcer relapsed in 2 patients during the stretch period. After anti-infection, thorough debridement, and VSD, the wounds were healed after another 16 days of stretch treatment. During the follow-up of 3 to 36 months, 23 patients had linear scar left on the stretch wounds, and the skin elasticity, color, sensation was similar to the surrounding normal tissue, and the limb mobility was good, and 2 patients had obvious scar hyperplasia. One patient had recurrence of diabetic foot and serious vascular occlusion and gangrene in the affected limb at follow-up of 10 months, which was treated with amputation of the lower leg.Conclusions:The use of stretcher combined with VSD in treating diabetic foot wound can avoid donor site injury, with healed wound achieving similar appearance to adjacent skin and satisfactory repair effects.

Objective: To observe the effects of the method of combining free superficial temporal fascia flaps with skin grafts in repairing deep wounds in posterior ankle region of extensively burned patients. Methods: From September 2013 to February 2017, 11 extensively burned patients with deep tissue defects in posterior ankle region were treated in our unit. Two patients had tissue defects in bilateral posterior ankle regions. The wound sizes ranged from 5.8 cm×4.6 cm to 11.7 cm×5.2 cm. Free superficial temporal fascia flaps with the same sizes as the wounds were designed and resected to repair wounds in posterior ankle regions after debridement. The proximal end of superficial temporal veins and posterior tibial veins were performed with end-to-end anastomosis, and superficial temporal arteries and posterior tibial arteries were performed with end-to-side anastomosis. Skin grafts were resected to cover the superficial temporal fascia flaps according to patients′ condition of donor sites. The donor sites were sutured directly. Results: All fascial flaps in 11 patients survived, while 2 skin grafts had partial necrosis, and they healed after secondary skin graft. All patients were followed up for 6 to 13 months, and the shape and function of the operation sites in all patients recovered well. Conclusions The method of combining free superficial temporal fascia flaps with skin grafts can repair deep wounds in posterior ankle regions of extensively burned patients. It has the advantages of good appearances in the recipient sites, strong resistances to infection of fascia flaps, minimal damages to the donor sites, short course of disease, and good prognosis of patients.

Objective To establish and verify the fluctuation of reference intervals for biochestry parameters in routine physical exami-nation. Methods The results of biochemistry parameters,i.e., total protein (TP), albumin (Alb), total bilirubin (T-Bil), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), glucose (Glu), urea (Urea), creatinine (Cr), uric acid (UA), triacylglycerol (TG) and total cholesterol ( TC) from 2 089 healthy subjects in routine physical examination during consecutive 2014, 2015 and 2016 were randomly collected, in which all the results were within the reference range. The ratio (λ1) of the results of 2015 to those of 2014, and ratio (λ2) of the re-sults of 2016 to those of 2015 were calculated. λ1was analyzed statistically to establish the fluctuation of reference interval (CIλ). CIλ was verified by λ2.The personalized reference interval (CIp) was established by multiplying each result of 2015 and the upper and low-er limits of CIλ. The CIpwas verified by the results of 2016. The ratios of CIpto the upper and lower limits of conventional reference in-terval were calculated. Results The values of CIλwere as follows: TP: 0.91 to 1.08, Alb: 0.91 to 1.08, T-Bil: 0.58 to 1.74, ALT:0.49 to 1.99, Glu: 0.84 to 1.20, Urea: 0.67 to 1.50, Cr: 0.82 to 1.22, UA: 0.77 to 1.32, TG: 0.51 to 1.98 and TC: 0.80 to 1.26. Compared with conventional reference interval, the ratio of the upper and lower limits of CIp was lessened. Conclusion The personal-ized reference interval (CIp) which may increase the sensitivity of conventional reference intervals was established and verified.

Objective: Strategy for wound repair of skin and soft tissue defect and systematic rehabilitation treatment for functional reconstruction of patients with severe burn or trauma on knees. Methods: From January 2015 to October 2016, 26 patients with skin and soft tissue defect on knees after severe burn or trauma were hospitalized in our unit. Among these patients, 14 patients had patellar ligament defect, and 16 patients had knee joint capsule defect. Wound debridement was operated on 1 to 3 days after admission. After debridement, the area of skin and soft tissue defect ranged from 10 cm×7 cm to 42 cm×18 cm. Vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) treatment was performed after debridement, and flap transplantation operation was performed after VSD treatment for 5 to 7 days. Defects of nine patients were treated with local rotation flaps. Seven patients with skin and soft tissue defects on knees and knee joint capsule defects of 5 cm×3 cm to 9 cm×7 cm were treated with free anterolateral femoral flaps combined with fascia lata. Ten patients with skin and soft tissue defects on knees and patellar ligament defects of 6 cm×3 cm to 12 cm×4 cm were treated with free anterolateral femoral flaps combined with iliotibial tract. The area of flaps ranged from 11 cm×9 cm to 22 cm×15 cm. After flap transplantation operation, functional reconstruction of knee joint was carried out according to early, continuous, and sequential systematic rehabilitation treatment strategy. The pain degree and function of knee joint of patients were scored by the International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) Knee Evaluation Form before operation and 12 months after operation. The knee joint flexion and extension degrees of patients were measured by joint protractor in 2 weeks and 12 months after operation. The color Doppler ultrasound was used to evaluate integrity of knee joint capsule and continuity of patellar ligament of patients in 6 and 12 months after operation. Results: All flaps of 26 patients survived well, and wounds healed completely after the operation. Distal parts of flaps of 2 patients treated with free anterolateral femoral flaps had local necrosis after the operation, and their wounds healed after debridement and transplantation of autologous intermediate split-thickness skin graft of thigh. The IKDC Knee Evaluation Form score of patients was (79±8) points in 12 months after operation, which was significantly higher than (64±7) points before operation (t=7.20, P<0.05). The flexion degree of knee joint of patients was (117±10)° in 12 months after operation, which was significantly larger than (35±8)° in 2 weeks after operation (t=32.65, P<0.05). The extension degree of knee joint of patients was (12±9)° in 12 months after operation, which was significantly smaller than (61±9)° in 2 weeks after operation (t=19.63, P<0.05). In 6 and 12 months after operation, 9 patients treated with local rotation flaps had good integrity of knee joint capsule and continuity of patellar ligament; 7 patients treated with free anterolateral femoral flaps and fascia lata had good integrity of knee joint capsule; 10 patients treated with free anterolateral femoral flaps and iliotibial tract had good continuity of patellar ligament. During follow-up of 12 months, all flaps survived well; knees of all patients had good appearance; knee joints functioned normally. Conclusions Good appearance and function of knees can be achieved by repairing wound of skin and soft tissue defect on knees after severe burn or trauma with local rotation flaps or free anterolateral femoral flaps with fascia lata or iliotibial tract plus systematic rehabilitation treatment of knee joint in early stage after flap transplantation operation.

Objective To establish and verify the personalized reference interval of blood cells.Methods The results of blood cells from 2 089 health subjects in 2014,2015 and 2016 were collected.The ratio of the later results to the previous results was defined as the fluctuation (λ).The ratio (λ1) of the results of 2015 to the results of 2014 was calculated and λ1 was analyzed statistically to establish the fluctuation reference interval (CIλ).The ratio (λ2) of the results of 2016 to the results of 2015 was calculated.λ2 was used to verify λ2.The personalized reference interval (CIp) was established by multiplying each result of 2015 and CIλ.CIp was verified by results of 2016.The ratio of the upper and lower limits of CIp was calculated.The ratio of the upper and lower limits of the reference interval (WS/T 405) was calculated.Results The values of CIλ were as follows:WBC (0.66 to 1.53),L(0.67 to 1.51),M (0.50 to 2.00),N(0.56 to 1.78),E(0.4 to 2.51),PLT(0.76 to 1.32),RBC(0.92 to 1.12),Hb(0.92 to 1.11),Hct(0.91 to 1.12),MCV(0.95 to 1.07),MCH(0.95 to 1.05)and MCHC(0.94 to 1.06).The validation tests of CIλ and CIp showed that both CIλ and CIp were suitable for this laboratory.Compared with the reference interval of professional criteria,the ratio of the upper and lower limits of the CIp was smaller than that of traditional criteria.Conclusion CIp for this laboratory was established and verified.Compared with traditional criteria,CIp should be more personalized and highly sensitive.

Objective:To analyze the implementation and effectiveness of primary health care reform in Feixi county, Anhui province. Methods: This paper uses data analysis of interviews with key insiders, policy documents and archives, as well as institutional questionnaire survey and other methods to collect information, and then it com-bines qualitative and quantitative research to arrive at research findings through cross-analysis and interpretation. Re-sults:From 2010 to 2014, the reform enhanced the capacity of primary health care in four main aspects, including capacity building of primary health care personnel, network construction of primary health care system, improvement of working conditions, and system construction of institutional management. Accordingly, the human capacity of pri-mary health care personnel was improved, their enthusiasm for work increased, their income was raised, the working conditions were improved, the cooperation mechanism for vertical and horizontal health care services was established, and the consultation rate and primary health care utilization in Feixi county increased. Conclusion:Both the“bottom-up” exploration approach and “from point to area” implementation strategy adopted by Feixi county have not only been the core content of primary health care system’s comprehensive reform, but also effectively leveraged the other aspects of the reform. They have played an important role in deepening medical reform and establishing institutional mechanism of health care system.

Objective:To analyze reverse effects induced in the implementation process of“primary health care strengthening” policies, and the innovative initiatives and countermeasures raised in primary health care system’s comprehensive reform of Feixi county. Method:Based on the principles of Critical Discourse Analysis ( CDA) , this paper designs its analytical framework for policy analysis. Results:Many reverse effects appeared in the implementa-tion process of “primary health care strengthening” policies. However, through improvements in terms of manpower upgrading, network building, working conditions and management mechanisms, Feixi county has successfully strengthened the capacity building for primary health care institutions. Conclusions:The expected and unexpected re-sults should be evaluated systematically when the policies are being implemented, and local governments need to pro-ceed according to local conditions in order to prevent unintended reverse effects from happening.
