Objective:To explore the application of 3D visualisation technology combined with perforator flap transfer in reconstruction of soft tissue defects in traumatic hand and foot injury and explore the clinical outcomes.Methods:Between January 2021 and February 2023, a retrospective analysis was conducted in the Department of Emergency of the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangsu University and the Department of Sports Medical of Wuxi No. 9 People's Hospital, on the data of 12 patients (13 flaps) who received surgery of 3D visualisation technology combined with perforator flap transfer for soft tissue defects left by traumatic hand and foot injuries. The patients were 7 males and 5 females aged 45 [36.5, 55.8] years old. Nine patients had the defects in hand and 3 in foot, with 3 in the left and 9 in the right. The sizes of defects ranged from 8.0 cm×6.0 cm to 18.0 cm×17.0 cm. The time from injury to surgery was 13.5 [8.3, 20.8] days. Preoperative CTA scans of donor and recipient sites were performed, and the imaging data were processed for 3D image reconstruction and visualisation. A total of 13 flaps were designed and harvested, including 10 free anterolateral thigh perforator flaps (ALTPFs) and 3 pedicled perforator flaps of fibular artery containing fibular nerve nutrient vessel chains. The flap sizes ranged from 9.0 cm×6.0 cm to 20.0 cm×15.0 cm. Five of the donor sites were directly closed by suture and 8 by skin grafting. Monthly outpatient follow-ups were conducted for the first 3 months after surgery, and then the follow-up reviews were conducted through visits of outpatient clinic or reviewed via WeChat interviews. Information about the outcomes of the transferred flaps, complications and function recovery were recorded on all patients.Results:All 13 flaps were successfully harvested and transferred with the assistance of 3D visualisation technology. Preoperative location of perforator vessels was accurate and flap design was reasonable. The 3D visualisation provided an effective guidance for surgical manipulation. Twelve flaps survived completely after surgery. One flap that had partial necrosis healed after skin grafting. All patients were included in more than 6 months of postoperative follow-up, with a mean follow-up duration of 8.1 months±1.7 months. All flaps had good colour and texture. Four flaps that had swollen appearance received secondary thinning surgery with satisfactory outcomes. The recovery of 9 patients with hand injury was evaluated according to the Blood Circulation Elauation of Severed Finger Replantation Evaluation Standard of Upper Limb Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association. At the final follow-up, the blood supply of flaps was excellent in 11 flaps and good in 2 flaps. Hand function was excellent in 2 hands, good in 4 hands and poor in 3 hands. Scores of American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Societ(AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot was used for foot function evaluation and all 3 patients were in excellent. Of the postoperative complications, due to a haematoma beneath the flap, a local infection and a delayed fracture healing were occurred in 3 patients separately.Conclusion:The 3D visualisation technology assisted perforator flap transfer can achieve high-quality reconstruction of defects in hand and foot through precise preoperative flap design and simulated surgical incision, therefore it provides a better treatment outcomes for patients.

Hip fracture is considered as the most severe osteoporotic fracture characterized by high disability and mortality in the elderly. Improved surgical techniques and multidisciplinary team play an active role in alleviating prognosis, which places higher demands on perioperative nursing. Dysfunction, complications, and secondary impact of anaesthesia and surgery add more difficulties to clinical nursing. Besides, there still lack clinical practices in perioperative nursing for elderly patients with hip fracture in China. In this context, led by the Orthopedic Nursing Committee of Chinese Nursing Association, the Expert consensus on clinical practice in perioperative nursing for elderly patients with hip fracture ( version 2023) is developed based on the evidence-based medicine. This consensus provides 11 recommendations on elderly patients with hip fracture from aspects of perioperative health education, condition monitoring and inspection, complication risk assessment and prevention, and rehabilitation, in order to provide guiding advices for clinical practice, improve the quality of nursing and ameliorate the prognosis of elderly patients with hip fracture.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the characteristics and prognosis of acute leukemia(AL) with SET-NUP214 fusion gene. METHODS: The clinical data of 17 patients over 14 years old newly diagnosed with SET-NUP214 positive AL admitted in Institute of Hematology and Blood Diseases Hospital from August 2017 to May 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS: Among the 17 SET-NUP214 positive patients, 13 cases were diagnosed as T-ALL (ETP 3 cases, Pro-T-ALL 6 cases, Pre-T-ALL 3 cases, Medullary-T-ALL 1 case), AML 3 cases (2 cases M5, 1 case M0) and ALAL 1 case. Thirteen patients presented extramedullary infiltration at initial diagnosis. All 17 patients received treatment, and a total of 16 cases achieved complete remission (CR), including 12 cases in patients with T-ALL. The total median OS and RFS time were 23 (3-50) months and 21 (0-48) months, respectively. Eleven patients received allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT), with median OS time of 37.5 (5-50) months and median RFS time of 29.5 (5-48) months. The median OS time of 6 patients in chemotherapy-only group was 10.5 (3-41) months, and median RFS time of 6.5 (3-39) months. The OS and RFS of patients with transplantation group were better than those of chemotherapy-only group (P=0.038). Among the 4 patients who relapsed or refractory after allo-HSCT, the SET-NUP214 fusion gene did not turn negative before transplantation. While, in the group of 7 patients who have not relapsed after allo-HSCT till now, the SET-NUP214 fusion gene expression of 5 patients turned negative before transplantation and other 2 of them were still positive. CONCLUSION The fusion site of SET-NUP214 fusion gene is relatively fixed in AL patients, often accompanied by extramedullary infiltration. The chemotherapy effect of this disease is poor, and allo-HSCT may improve its prognosis.

Objective: To understand the current status of diagnosis and treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) /small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) among hematologists, oncologists, and lymphoma physicians from hospitals of different levels in China. Methods: This multicenter questionnaire survey was conducted from March 2021 to July 2021 and included 1,000 eligible physicians. A combination of face-to-face interviews and online questionnaire surveys was used. A standardized questionnaire regarding the composition of patients treated for CLL/SLL, disease diagnosis and prognosis evaluation, concomitant diseases, organ function evaluation, treatment selection, and Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor was used. Results: ①The interviewed physicians stated that the proportion of male patients treated for CLL/SLL is higher than that of females, and the age is mainly concentrated in 61-70 years old. ②Most of the interviewed physicians conducted tests, such as bone marrow biopsies and immunohistochemistry, for patient diagnosis, in addition to the blood test. ③Only 13.7% of the interviewed physicians fully grasped the initial treatment indications recommended by the existing guidelines. ④In terms of cognition of high-risk prognostic factors, physicians' knowledge of unmutated immunoglobulin heavy-chain variable and 11q- is far inferior to that of TP53 mutation and complex karyotype, which are two high-risk prognostic factors, and only 17.1% of the interviewed physicians fully mastered CLL International Prognostic Index scoring system. ⑤Among the first-line treatment strategy, BTK inhibitors are used for different types of patients, and physicians have formed a certain understanding that BTK inhibitors should be preferentially used in patients with high-risk factors and elderly patients, but the actual use of BTK inhibitors in different types of patients is not high (31.6%-46.0%). ⑥BTK inhibitors at a reduced dose in actual clinical treatment were used by 69.0% of the physicians, and 66.8% of the physicians had interrupted the BTK inhibitor for >12 days in actual clinical treatment. The use of BTK inhibitors is reduced or interrupted mainly because of adverse reactions, such as atrial fibrillation, severe bone marrow suppression, hemorrhage, and pulmonary infection, as well as patients' payment capacity and effective disease progression control. ⑦Some differences were found in the perceptions and behaviors of hematologists and oncologists regarding the prognostic assessment of CLL/SLL, the choice of treatment options, the clinical use of BTK inhibitors, etc. Conclusion: At present, a gap remains between the diagnosis and treatment of CLL/SLL among Chinese physicians compared with the recommendations in the guidelines regarding the diagnostic criteria, treatment indications, prognosis assessment, accompanying disease assessment, treatment strategy selection, and rational BTK inhibitor use, especially the proportion of dose reduction or BTK inhibitor discontinuation due to high adverse events.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy of sepsis risk calculator (SRC) in guiding antibiotic use in neonates with suspected early-onset sepsis (EOS). METHODS: A total of 284 neonates with a gestational age of ≥ 35 weeks were enrolled as the control group, who were hospitalized in the Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from March to July, 2019 and were suspected of EOS. Their clinical data were retrospectively collected and the use of antibiotics was analyzed based on SRC. A total of 170 neonates with a gestational age of ≥ 35 weeks were enrolled as the study group, who were admitted to the hospital from July to November, 2020 and were suspected of EOS. SRC was used prospectively for risk scoring to assist the decision making of clinical antibiotic management. The two groups were compared in terms of the rate of use of antibiotics, blood culture test rate, clinical outcome, and adherence to the use of SRC. RESULTS: Compared with the control group, the study group had a significantly higher SRC score at birth and on admission ( CONCLUSIONS The use of SRC reduces the rate of empirical use of antibiotics in neonates with suspected EOS and does not increase the risk of adverse outcomes, and therefore, it holds promise for clinical application.

BACKGROUND: Prospective analyses have yet to identify a consistent relationship between sleep duration and the incidence of gastrointestinal (GI) cancers. The effect of changes in sleep duration on GI cancer incidence has scarcely been studied. Therefore, we aimed to examine the association between baseline sleep duration and annual changes in sleep duration and GI cancer risk in a large population-based cohort study. METHODS: A total of 123,495 participants with baseline information and 83,511 participants with annual changes in sleep duration information were prospectively observed from 2006 to 2015 for cancer incidence. Cox proportional-hazards models were used to calculate hazard ratios (HRs) and their confidence intervals (CIs) for GI cancers according to sleep duration and annual changes in sleep duration. RESULTS: In baseline sleep duration analyses, short sleep duration (≤5 h) was significantly associated with a lower risk of GI cancer in females (HR: 0.31, 95% CI: 0.10-0.90), and a linear relationship between baseline sleep duration and GI cancer was observed (P = 0.010), especially in males and in the >50-year-old group. In the annual changes in sleep duration analyses, with stable category (0 to -15 min/year) as the control group, decreased sleep duration (≤-15 min/year) was significantly associated with the development of GI cancer (HR: 1.29; 95% CI: 1.04-1.61), especially in the >50-year-old group (HR: 1.32; 95% CI: 1.01-1.71), and increased sleep duration (>0 min/year) was significantly associated with GI cancer in females (HR: 2.89; 95% CI: 1.14-7.30). CONCLUSIONS Both sleep duration and annual changes in sleep duration were associated with the incidence of GI cancer.

Objective To compare the effect of different sutures and suture method on corneal neovascularization ( CNV) in rabbit models. Methods NV was induced by placing sutures at the corneal periphery of rabbits (n = 45). To observe the NV status, 45 rabbits were randomly divided into 5 equal groups. Group A applied 8-0 absorbable suture (A1 single loop parallel suture, A2 single loop vertical suture). In group B, 10-0 nylon suture was used (B1 double loop parallel suture, B2 double loop vertical suture, B3 three loop radial suture). The development of CNV was observed with slit lamp microscope and photographed. Therefore the effective model for neovascularization induction was selected. Histological examination, immunofluorescent staining and ELISA analysis for the vascular endothelial growth factor( VEGF) were performed before suture, 7 and 14 days after suture. Results Sutures fell off and CNV gradually atrophied in group Al and A2; At the 14th day after suture, Sparse or short cluster CNV grew into the corneal margin in group B1 and B2, while CNV was vigorous and grew in bundles in group B3. The expression of VEGF in aqueous humor increased in B3 group after suturing, and increased in 14 days as compared with 7 days after suture. Corneal edema, neovascularization and little immunofluorescence staining for VEGF were detected in group B3 after 7 days suture. More neovascularization and immunofluorescence staining for VEGF were detected in group B3 after 14 days suture. Conclusion Corneal NV can be induced successfully in rabbit model by suturing. The method of 10-0 thread with three sets of circular seams (B3) is stable and effective.

Metabolic syndrome (MS) is a group of syndromes caused by the disorder of metabolism of various substances in the body. The main clinical manifestations are dyslipidemia, central obesity, hypertension, abnormal glucose tolerance and insulin resistance. With the changes of diet structure and habits, the incidence rate of MS is increasing, and the patients are younger. It is an important factor in many diseases, such as diabetes, atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, hyperlipidemia, cirrhosis and some cancers. MS has seriously affected people's lives and health. Central obesity and insulin resistance are recognized as important pathogenic factors. At present, the pathogenesis of MS and its components has not been fully understood. The clinical manifestations of metabolic syndrome are complex and diverse. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) believes that the occurrence of metabolic syndrome is related to such factors as proper diet, emotional disorders, excessive escape and little movement, old age and physical deficiency. TCM scholars have studied the pathogenesis of MS in such pathological factors as phlegm and blood stasis, such visceral functions as liver, spleen and kidney, roles of Qi and blood, and emotional factors. As the basic substance of organism, Qi is closely related to the process of metabolism. The occurrence of MS is closely related to the rise and fall of Qi moving to and from the body as well as the abnormal gasification function of the transformation of Qi. Qi is derived from the five internal organs, which are respectively called Heart Qi, liver Qi, spleen Qi, lung Qi and kidney Qi. The "Qi of the five internal organs" is involved in the whole process of the generation, transportation and excretion of the essence of the body. Based on the "Qi of five internal organs", this paper discusses the pathogenesis of MS with phlegm, blood stasis and water drink as pathological factors.
