Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness for the construction of "mosquito-free village" in Xuejia Village, Pujiang County, Zhejiang Province, so as to provide the guidance for the construction of "mosquito-free village" in other rural areas. Methods: Density of adult mosquitoes in Xuejia Village was investigated using light trap method and density of larval mosquitoes was investigated using larval straw method from April to November each year. Totally 30 households of villagers were randomly selected, and their awareness rates of mosquito control knowledge, mosquito control behavior forming rates and satisfaction rates were surveyed through questionnaires. Investment during construction (from August 2016 to December 2018) and maintenance period (from 2019 to 2023) of "mosquito-free village" were investigated through data review and interviews. Long-term effects of "mosquito-free village" construction in Xuejia Village were evaluated in terms of mosquito density from 2016 to 2023, effectiveness of health education for villagers, satisfaction and investment. Results: Compared with the year 2016, the densities of adult and larval mosquitoes in Xuejia Village were significantly decreased from 2017 to 2023. The average monthly density of adult mosquitoes in 2023 decreased by 98.34%, and the average monthly 100 household index of larval mosquitoes decreased by 98.45% compared to 2016. The average monthly density of adult mosquitoes from 2019 to 2023 was less than or equal to one mosquito per light trap in a night, and the average monthly 100 household index of larval mosquitoes was less than or equal to five places per 100 households. The awareness rate of mosquito control knowledge was 93.33%, the behavior forming rate was 86.67%, and the satisfaction rate was 90.00%. By December 2023, the total investment during construction and maintenance period was 450 thousand Yuan, with an average annual investment of 60.7 thousand Yuan and average annual investment of 206.61 Yuan per household. The average annual investment during maintenance period was 36.2 thousand Yuan, and the average annual investment per household was 109.70 Yuan. Conclusion The mosquito density, effectiveness of health education for villagers and satisfaction of "mosquito-free village" in Xuejia Village all meet the evaluation criteria of "mosquito-free village", and the investment is reasonable, making it suitable for promotion to other rural areas.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of super-thin free anterolateral thigh (ALT) flap at the junction plane of superficial and deep fat of superficial fascia to repair the soft tissue defects of the foot.Methods:The clinical data of patients with foot soft tissue defects admitted to Northern Jiangsu People’s Hospital Affiliated to Yangzhou University from June 2017 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. During the operation, the super-thin free ALT flap on the affected side was harvested at the junction of superficial and deep fat of superficial fascia to repair the foot wound. The donor site wound was sutured directly or repaired with full-thickness skin graft. The flap survival and complications were observed after the operation, and the operation effect was evaluated from the following five aspects. (1) The Maryland foot function score was used to evaluate the recovery of foot function. The full score was 100 points, of which 90-100 points were excellent, 75-89 points were good, 50-74 points were fair, and < 50 points were poor. (2) The Vancouver scar scale (VSS) was used to evaluate the scar condition of the foot. The total score was 0-15 points. The higher the score, the more serious the scar. (3) The cold intolerance symptom severity (CISS) scale was used to evaluate the cold tolerance of the affected foot. The total score was 4-100 points. The higher the score, the more serious the symptoms. (4) Measuring static two-point discrimination to evaluate foot sensation, the smaller the measured value, the better the sensory recovery. (5) The satisfaction of patients with foot appearance was investigated, which was divided into five grades: very satisfied, satisfied, general, dissatisfied and very dissatisfied. Descriptive analysis of the data was performed using SPSS 26.0 software.Results:A total of 13 patients with foot soft tissue defects were enrolled, including 8 males and 5 females. The mean age was 54.7 years (range, 39-70 years). There were 10 cases of left foot and 3 cases of right foot. The wound area after thorough debridement ranged from 5.5 cm ×5.0 cm to 22.0 cm ×18.0 cm. The operation time was (145.1 ± 30.6) min. The area of the flap was 6.0 cm×5.5 cm to 23.5 cm×19.0 cm, and the thickness was (5.2 ± 1.1) mm (range, 3.0- 6.5 mm). The wound at the donor site was sutured directly in 9 cases, and coverd with the abdominal full-thickness skin graft in 4 cases. After the operation, 1 patient had partial epidermal necrosis at the distal end of the flap, 1 patient had venous crisis.The flaps survived after symptomatic treatment. The remaining 11 flaps survived smoothly. The patients were followed up for 12 to 20 months, with an average of 16 months. The foot flaps were soft and free of damage, and no secondary fat reduction or plastic surgery was required. There were no complications such as wound dehiscence, skin graft necrosis, muscle hernia, and quadriceps weakness in 13 cases of donor site except for hypoesthesia caused by scar hyperplasia in 4 cases with skin graft. At the last follow-up, the Maryland foot function score was (87.4±7.3) points, of which 7 cases were excellent, 4 cases were good, and 2 cases were fair. The excellent and good rate was 11/13. The foot scar was not obvious, the VSS score was (3.2±1.2) points. The foot was more tolerant to cold and the sensory recovery was better, the CISS score was (37.5±7.1) points and the static two-point discrimination was (13.9±1.0) mm. One month after the operation, the results of patients’ satisfaction with foot appearance were as follows: 11 cases were very satisfied and 2 cases were satisfied.Conclusion:The super-thin free ALT flap is obtained at the junction plane of superficial and deep fat of superficial fascia to repair the soft tissue defect of the foot, which can optimize the operation time. The appearance and function of the foot recover well after the operation, avoiding the secondary shaping operation, reducing the damage to the donor site, and the patients are satisfied.

Hand hemangioma combined with aneurysm is rare and its specific clinical diagnosis and treatment method are not yet clear. In February 2021, a 49-year-old female patient with a right small finger hemangioma and aneurysm was diagnosed and treated in the Department of Hand and Foot, Northern Jiangsu People’s Hospital. The patient was admitted to the hospital due to a tumor in the right little finger for 1 year. A low-echo mass with blood flow in the subcutaneous layer of the right little finger was detected on Doppler ultrasound and considered a hemangioma. Other laboratory tests and physical examinations showed no obvious abnormalities. The preoperative diagnosis was a right little finger mass (hemangioma). After completing the preoperative examination, we performed a resection of the hemangioma of the right little finger. Postoperative pathology showed that the mass located on the volar side of the right little finger was consistent with an aneurysm, and the one on the dorsal side of the right little finger was consistent with a venous aneurysm. After 2 years of follow-up, there was no recurrence of the lesion.

Objective:To introduce the therapeutic effect of forearm radial artery perforator propeller flap for repair of hand and wrist soft tissue defects.Methods:The clinical data of patients with soft tissue defects of hand and wrist who received the treatment with forearm radial artery perforator propeller flap in Northern Jiangsu People’s Hospital from January 2018 to September 2020 were collected. The radial artery of the forearm was projected on the skin surface as the axis, and the nearest perforator was selected as the rotation point according to the location of the soft tissue defect. The radial artery perforator propeller flap was designed based on the location, area and shape of soft tissue defect. The length of the large paddle of the flap is equal to the distance between the proximal side of the wound edge and the rotation point plus the length of the wound, and the length of the small paddle of the flap is equal to the distance between the proximal side of the wound edge and the rotation point. The donor site was closed directly or with full-thickness skin graft from the ipsilateral upper arm. The survival, appearance of the flap and skin graft, hand and wrist function and patients satisfactory rate were observed and recorded.Results:A total of 6 patients were included, including 4 males and 2 females; the mean age was 40.5 years (range, 25-65 years ). There were 1 case on the palm side of the hand, 1 case on the dorsal side of the hand, 3 cases on the volar side of the wrist, and 1 case on the dorsal side of the wrist. The area of soft tissue defect after debridement was 2 cm × 3 cm-7 cm × 10 cm. The forearm radial artery perforator propeller flap ranged from 3 cm × 4 cm to 8 cm × 11 cm. The donor site was closed directly in 3 cases, and with full-thickness skin graft in 3 cases. The flaps in all 6 patients survived completely with primary healing. The skin grafts for the donor site in 3 cases survived completely. The patients were followed up for 3 months to 1 year, with an average of 5 months. The function of the hand and wrist recovered well. The texture of the flap was similar to that of the surrounding tissue with good appearance, no swelling or slight swelling, no obvious color difference. The donor site healed well without scar hyperplasia. The patients were satisfied with the surgical results.Conclusion:Propeller flap pedicled with forearm radial artery perforator is a simple and effective method to repair soft tissue defects of wrist and hand with reliable recovery of appearance and function. The patients’ satisfactory rate is also high.

Mosquito control and "mosquito-free village" construction in rural areas played positive roles in preventing mosquito-borne diseases and improving rural living environments. However,there was a lack of the target and specific evaluation system for mosquito control and prevention in rural areas. Based on the main contents of mosquito control works in rural areas,the national standards for mosquito control and practical experiences for“mosquito-free village”construction in Zhejiang Province,we built a evaluation system suitable for mosquito control in rural areas,in order to provide reference for the evaluation standard and the sustainable development of mosquito control in rural areas. This evaluation system included four indices named mosquito density control,village administration,health education and the villagers' attitude;each index had three levels named A,B and C from high to low. When all the four indices were evaluated as C,the village was regarded as basically meeting the requirements of mosquito control;when all the four indices were evaluated as A,the village was regarded as a "mosquito-free village".
