Objective:To explore the clinical effect of antibiotic bone cement combined with delayed lateral supramolleolar perforator fascial flap in the treatment of diabetic foot(DF).Methods:From April 2020 to July 2021, a total of 6 patients with DF were treated with antibiotic bone cement combined with delayed lateral supramolleolar perforator fascial flap. The patients were 5 males and 1 female, aged from 45 to 67 years old with an average of 56.2 years old. The wounds were all located in dorsal foot, 4 in right foot and 2 in the left. The wound area was 2.4 cm×5.0 cm-6.5 cm×10.0 cm. The depth of wound were: 3 cases up to tendon layer, and 3 cases up to metatarsal bone. Two of the wound were complicated with metatarsal osteomyelitis. The wounds at Wagner grade 3 in 4 patients and grade 4 in 2 patients. The flap size was 3.0 cm×6.0 cm-8.0 cm×11.0 cm. All of the wounds were repaired with delayed supramolleolar perforator fascia flap after debridement, application of antibiotic bone cement and fumigation with Sanhuang decoction(a traditional Chinese medicine). The affected limbs were externally fixed with plaster and raised after surgery, and the colour, temperature, tension and capillary reaction of the flaps were closely observed. Stitches were removed 2 weeks after surgery and rehabilitation of the affected limb was performed. Regular follow-up was made postoperatively. The appearance of flaps and the scar of donor and recipient sites were observed. The foot and ankle function were evaluated by the American Orthopaedic Association foot and Ankle Surgery(AOFAS) score scale.Results:Six cases of DF had no recurrence of wound infection. All flaps survived well. The average follow-up time was 6(3-14) months. The postoperative follow-up revealed satisfactory appearance of the flap, only linear scars remained in the donor and recipient sites. The function of foot and ankle recovered well with full weight-bearing and normal walk. AOFAS scores ranged from 81 to 95.Conclusion:It is an effective method to treat DF by applying antibiotic bone cement combined with delayed superior lateral malleolus perforator fascial flap. The operation is simple, safe and can cut down the time of treatment, quickly control the wound infection. It deserves further trials.

Objective To evaluate 3D printing abdominal aortic aneurysm model in analysis of clinical teaching effect for standardized resident doctors in vascular surgery department. Methods 48 resi-dents in vascular surgery department in our hospital from December 2016 to September 2017 were seleeected and randomly divided into control group and the experimental group. The traditional vascular surgical anatomy atlas, ultrasound, CT abdominal blood vessel 3D reconstruction, digital subtraction, video and so on were used by 24 residents in the control group, while in the experimental group, on the basis of the traditional teaching, abdominal aortic aneurysm model of 3D printing, true aortic coated stent delivery system were increased. After the teaching, the theory of evaluation (abdominal vascular anatomical features, morphological characteristics and classification of AAA, measurement of various parameters and key points of operation in the EVAR) and satisfaction questionnaire were adopted to evaluate the effect of two kinds of teaching methods. SPSS 19.0 was used to conduct t test on two groups of physician evaluation data. Results The results of theoretical assessment showed that there was no significant difference between the control group and the experimental group in the abdominal vascular anatomical features, the morphological features and the classification of the experimental group (P>0.05) in the examination of the common AAA cases and the complicated AAA cases. However, the experimental group was higher than the control group in the mea-surement of the parameters of EVAR, and the score of the operation points and the total score, and the difference was statistically significant (t=2.283, t=2.263, P<0.05). The results of the questionnaire showed that the students' satisfaction scores on the teaching satisfaction of the normal and complex AAA cases were better than those of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion The 3D printing model can increase the understanding and mastery of the anatomy and treat-ment of abdominal aortic aneurysm and improve its learning enthusiasm for vascular surgery. We should make full use of the advantages of 3D printing technology on the basis of retaining the advantages of tradi-tional teaching methods and means, and further enhance the teaching effect.

Objective: To investigate the application of percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) to patients with severe craniocerebral injury for the purpose of nutritional support therapy and pulmonary infection prevention.
Methods: A total of 43 patients with severe craniocerebral injury admitted to our department from January 2008 to December 2012 received PEG followed by nutritional therapy. There were other 82 patients who were prescribed nasal-feeding nutrition. Nutrition status was evaluated by comparing serum albumin levels, and the incidence of pulmonary infection 1 week before and 2 weeks after operation was identified and compared.
Results: Both PEG and nasal-feeding nutrition therapies have significantly elevated serum albumin levels (P<0.05). Serum albumin levels before and after nutritional therapies showed no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). The incidence of pulmonary infection in PEG group was significantly decreased compared with that in nasal-feeding nutrition group (P<0.05).
Conclusion: PEG is an effective method for severe craniocerebral injury patients. It can not only provide enteral nutrition but also prevent pulmonary infection induced by esophageal reflux.

To compare the differences between Hengshanhuangqi (HH) and Chuanhuangqi (CH) at molecular level, 1H NMR based plant metabolomics approach was used to reveal the chemical difference between HH and CH. Then, the contents of astragaloside IV and calycosin-7-O-beta-D-glucoside, the marker compounds specified in China Pharmacopoeia, were determined. In addition, the ITS2 fragments of HH and CH were sequenced. Twenty-three metabolites were identified in the 1H NMR spectrum, and the principal component analysis showed CH and HH could be separated clearly. HH contained more aspartic acid, GABA, citric acid, astragaloside IV and calycosin-7-O-beta-D-glucoside, while CH contained more threonine, alanine, acetic acid, choline, arginine, fructose and sucrose. And the astragaloside IV is almost undetectable in CH. In addition, the ITS2 fragment sequences of HH and CH were different at eight bases. Thus, the HH and CH showed significant differences chemically and genetically.
