This study aims to evaluate the accuracy of portable hemoglobinometer (Hemocue Hb 201+ hemoglobin analyzer) in patients with maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) and its diagnostic value for anemia. The data of venous hemoglobulin (Hb) and fingertip capillary hemoglobulin (DHb) in MHD patients from Lingnan Hospital, the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University were retrospectively analyzed, and the correlation and difference between DHb and Hb and the accuracy of DHb in the diagnosis of anemia were evaluated. A total of 105 patients were included in the study. There was no significant difference between the paired DHb and Hb [(109±21) g/L vs. (108±20) g/L, t=-1.284, P=0.202]. Pearson correlation analysis showed that DHb was positively correlated with Hb ( r=0.929, P<0.001). Linear regression analysis showed that DHb and Hb met the regression equation Hb=0.88×DHb+12.23, and P<0.001. Bland-Altman analysis showed that the differences between the paired DHb and Hb was (1.0±7.8) g/L with the limit of agreement as (-14.2, 16.2) g/L. The mean percentage of the differences in Hb was 1% with limit of agreement as (-13.7%, 15.7%). A DHb of >110 g/L was 0.90 sensitive and 0.83 specific to identify patients with an Hb >110 g/L and its positive and negative predictive values were 0.84 and 0.90, respectively. It suggests that, in MHD patients, Hemocue Hb 201+ analyzer shows good accuracy, and can be used to monitor the Hb trend and serve as a screen method for those reaching target Hb.

Objective:To investigate the application and effect of frontal flap combined with tarsalconjunctiva flap in the repair of widely full-thickness defects of the lower eyelid.Methods:From January 2016 to March 2018, 9 patients with extensive full-thickness lower eyelid defect were admitted to the Plastic Surgery Department of Changhai Hospital Affiliated to the Naval Military Medical University. All the lengths of lower eyelid defects were greater than a half of the full length. Then we designed forehead flaps combined with tarsalconjunctival flaps to cover the wounds. The second stage operation was done after 4-6 weeks to cut the pedicle and dress the eyelid.Results:All the frontal flaps of 9 patients survived. One patient had lower eyelid retraction and the lid position returned to normal half a year later. One underwent thinning surgery because of lower eyelid flap hypertrophy and one were because of pedicle hypertrophy. The appearance and function of other patients were greatly improved after surgery, and they were satisfied with the operation effect. No repair operation was performed in the future.Conclusions:The frontal flap with good quality of blood supply has a high survival rate and can be used to repair the wide defect of the lower eyelid with tarsalconjunctival flaps.

Objective:
To investigate the lateral canthoplasty and canthopexy with bone drilling to correct lower eyelid malposition and its benefit.
Methods:
From January 2014 to January 2019, lateral canthopexy with bone drilling technique was used to repair 56 patients with lower eyelid malposition in Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery of Changhai Hospital. Forty-four patients with lower eyelid ectopic had multiple previous surgeries, and 12 patients had congenital lower eyelid retraction. For patients without lower palpebral margin extension, lateral canthopexy with bone drilling technique was applied. For patients with lower palpebral margin extension, the lateral canthus angle was exposed to shorten the lower eyelid margin. For congenital lower eyelid retraction, the lateral canthus tendon was completely cut off, and then fixed with double armed sutures.
Results:
Operations were successfully performed on all 56 patients, and the patients were followed up for 1-38 months. Forty-nine patients achieved good eyelid shape and satisfied with the operative effects (87.5%). Malposition was ameliorated in 6 patients (10.7%). One remained uncorrected (1.8%).
Conclusions
Lateral canthopexy with bone drilling technique could obtain firm suspension force. For lower eyelid malposition, especially for patients with recurrent malposition or congenital lower eyelid retraction, satisfied function and appearance could be achieved.

AIM To evaluate the beneficial effects of isoliensinine on paraquat(PQ)-induced acute lung injury and pulmonary fibrosis and explore the mechanism of its action. METHODS PQ (45 mg·kg-1, ip)-induced acute lung injury and PQ (100 mg·kg-1, ig)-induced pulmonary fibrosis were prepared. At 8, 24 and 48 h after PQ administration, the effects of isoliensinine (20 mg·kg-1, ig, 3 times a day, from 24 h before PQ administration to the end of experiment) on activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) in plasma and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of acute lung injury groups were evaluated respectively. On the 14 d following PQ ingestion, the effects of isoliensinine (10, 20 and 40 mg·kg-1, ig, twice a day, from 24 h before PQ administration to the end of experiment) on hydroxyproline content, transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) and matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) expressions and the histopathological changes in lung tissues of pulmonary fibrosis groups were observed. RESULTS In the acute lung injury model, isoliensinine (20 mg·kg-1) significantly increased SOD activity, and decreased MDA content and ALP activity, as well as ameliorated the histopathological damage of lung tissue compared with PQ group. However, the indexes mentioned above in isoliensinine alone group did not change obviously compared with normal saline group. In the pulmonary fibrosis model, isoliensinine (10, 20 and 40 mg·kg-1) resulted in a dose-dependent decrease of hydroxyproline content compared with PQ group [(2.11±0.21), (1.94±0.24) and (1.89±0.26), respectively, vs (2.44±0.33) mg·g-1 wet tissue]. The expressions of TGF-β1 and MMP-2 in the lung tissue of the isoliensinine 40 mg·kg-1+PQ group were significantly less than those of the PQ group. Furthermore, isoliensinine could improve the histopathological changes of fibrosis as comparison with PQ group. CONCLUSION Isoliensinine has protective effects on PQ-induced acute lung injury and pulmonary fibrosis.

2,3,5,4'-tetra-hydroxystilbene-2-O-glucoside (THSG), the water-soluble active components extracted from dried tuber root of Polygonum multiflorum (Polygonaceae), can promote the release of nitric oxide (NO) from vascular endothelial cells and has strong antioxidation. The postconditioning's protection of THSG on cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury and the mechanism were investigated. After reperfusion for 3 h following occlusion of rat left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) for 30 min, SαT recovery speed, arrhythmia and cardiac infarct size were observed.The ischemic size and infarct size was identified by using Evans blue and TTC staining methods respectively. The results showed that the infarct size in THSG 7. 5 mg/kg postconditioning group was significantly decreased from 43.6 %±9.1 % in mode group to 16.5 %±6.5 % (P<0.01).SαT recovery was quicker and the incidence of arrhythmia (55.6 % vs 100 %, P<0.05) was significantly lower than in control group. The infarct size in THSG+glybenclamide group was greater than in THSG group, but equivalent to that in control group (46.8 %±9.8 % vs 43.6 %±9. 1 %, P >0. 05), SαT recovery speed slower and the incidence of arrhythmia also lower (33. 3 % vs 100 %, P<0. 01), suggesting that glybenclamide could abolish the effects of THSG postconditioning reducing the cardiac infart size. It was concluded that THSG administration before reperfusion could effectively alleviate the cardiac reperfusion injury and possessed the postconditioning effects of reducing cardiac infarct size, which might be related with the KATP channel opening.
