The clinical data of 5 patients with occupational contact dermatitis caused by methyl chlorobutyrate treated in the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical College and Mamiao Township Hospital of Jinxiang County from September to October 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were all males aged 33-47 years with a history of exposure to methyl chlorobutyrate 1 to 4 d before the onset of symptoms. Three patients were hospitalized and 2 patients were treated in outpatient clinic. The clinical manifestations were erythema on the trunk or extremities of varying degrees, scattered with blisters and bullae of different sizes, with thin and clear blisters, local ulceration and exudation; no erosion or ulceration was found in the oral cavity and vulva. All 5 patients had elevated white blood cell counts, and 2 patients had abnormal liver function. All patients received symptomatic treatment with topical drugs. Three hospitalized patients were given methylprednisolone and loratadine; in addition, 1 case also received human immunoglobulin and moxifloxacin hydrochloride injection and 2 cases received hepatoprotective drugs. Two outpatients were given prednisone acetate and loratadine for treatment. Three hospitalized patients were all improved and discharged after 14-30 d of treatment. The rash of 2 outpatients subsided after 14 d of treatment, and there was no recurrence after 1-month follow-up. The occupational contact dermatitis caused by methyl chlorobutyrate is primary irritant contact dermatitis, often manifested as erythema and blisters on the trunk or limbs, and timely anti-allergic treatment can effectively control the disease.

During coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic, the treatment of severe trauma has been impacted. The Consensus on emergency surgery and infection prevention and control for severe trauma patients with 2019 novel corona virus pneumonia was published online on February 12, 2020, providing a strong guidance for the emergency treatment of severe trauma and the self-protection of medical staffs in the early stage of the epidemic. With the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council renaming "novel coronavirus pneumonia" to "novel coronavirus infection" and the infection being managed with measures against class B infectious diseases since January 8, 2023, the consensus published in 2020 is no longer applicable to the emergency treatment of severe trauma in the new stage of epidemic prevention and control. In this context, led by the Chinese Traumatology Association, Chinese Trauma Surgeon Association, Trauma Medicine Branch of Chinese International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, and Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Traumatology, the Chinese expert consensus on emergency surgery for severe trauma and infection prevention during coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic ( version 2023) is formulated to ensure the effectiveness and safety in the treatment of severe trauma in the new stage. Based on the policy of the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council and by using evidence-based medical evidence as well as Delphi expert consultation and voting, 16 recommendations are put forward from the four aspects of the related definitions, infection prevention, preoperative assessment and preparation, emergency operation and postoperative management, hoping to provide a reference for severe trauma care in the new stage of the epidemic prevention and control.

The clinical data of 14 patients with niacin deficiency diagnosed and treated in Department of Dermatology, Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical College from 2012 to 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 11 males and 3 females aged 26-65 years. The etiological factors were alcoholism in 8 cases, gastrointestinal disease in 3 cases, medication history in 1 case, and unknown etiology in 2 cases.Patients had typical skin lesions, 1 case also had both digestive system and nervous system symptoms, and 3 cases had combined digestive system symptoms and 2 cases had neurological symptoms. All patients were systematically treated with oral nicotinamide and vitamin B complex, and also with topical drugs; and they all improved after 14-52 days of treatment. During regular follow-up, 2 cases of alcoholics and 1 case with diarrhea had recurrence. It is suggested that the typical clinical triad of niacin deficiency is uncommon, and the diagnosis is based on the medical history, clinical manifestations and relevant laboratory test, and the treatment with nicotinamide and vitamin B complex is usually effective; alcoholism is the main cause in male patients and is prone to recurrence.

Objective To investigate the hemodynamic monitoring and clinical significance of transcranial Doppler (TCD) combined with indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence angiography and FLOW 800 in carotid endarterectomy (CEA).Methods Forty-eight patients with extracranial carotid atherosclerotic stenosis underwent CEA in our hospital from October 2015 to September 2018 were chosen to our study. The mean blood flow velocity (Vm) of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) was monitored by TCD throughout the operation. The intraoperative blood pressures were adjusted according to the monitoring results, and the average blood Vm of the narrowed arteries was measured using TCD probe before and after artery temporary occlusion. ICG fluorescence angiography and FLOW 800 were used to monitor vascular morphology and patency simultaneously.Results One patient, who was observed to have severe stenosis by TCD, ICG fluorescence angiography, and FLOW 800 after arteries temporary occlusion, showed significantly improved by multimodal monitoring after re-suture; one patient showed external carotid artery occlusion by ICG fluorescence angiography and FLOW 800 had noexternal carotid artery occlusion; other 46 patients showed no carotid artery stenosis and good intracranial perfusion by TCD, ICG fluorescence angiography, and FLOW 800 after initial suture. Two patients developed ischemic stroke (IS) after CEA, and both of them were recovered after conservative medical treatment for two weeks without any neurological dysfunction; two patients had cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS), and both of them relieved after blood pressure control three d after treatment; one patient had subcutaneous hematoma in the operation area, and the hematoma was gradually absorbed after conservative treatment; the rest patients recovered well. All patients were followed up for 4-6 months after CEA, and CT angiography showed that carotid artery stenosis was relieved; CT perfusion imaging and TCD examinations showed that cerebral perfusion was significantly improved as compared with those before operation.Conclusion Intraoperative TCD combined with ICG fluorescence angiography and FLOW 800 can effectively monitor the intracranial and extracranial blood flow of intraoperative carotid artery, which is of great significance in reducing the risk of IS and CHS during carotid endarterectomy.

Objective To evaluate and compare the short-term effects of two kinds of plastic mulch on Oncomelania hupensis snail control in irrigation and drainage ditches with snails in Yunnan Province. Methods The irrigation and drainage ditches with high density of Oncomelania hupensis snails were chosen as the investigation sites,and then 4 groups were set,namely a colorless plastic mulch group,black plastic mulch group,colorless plastic mulch with molluscicide group and black plastic mulch with molluscicide group. The snail situation of the 4 groups was surveyed before the experiment and 7,14,21,30 days after covering plastic mulch,and the snail death rates were compared among the 4 groups. Meanwhile,the hourly temperatures of soil surface,soil surface under plastic mulch and soil layer 5,15 cm under the surface as well as the weather situation during the study period were measured and recorded. Results The average snail mortality rate of the colorless plastic mulch group was only 15.29% that was higher than that of the black plastic mulch group(6.56%)(P < 0.01). The average snail mortality rates of the colorless and black plastic mulch with molluscicide groups were 40.80% and 50.15%,respectively,and there was no statis-tic difference between them(P > 0.05). Both kinds of plastic mulches could raise the temperature of the soil surface under plas-tic mulch and the soil layer below it,and the temperature of soil under the mulches increased over the cover time,and the aver-age temperature of the soil surface under the black mulch in 30 days was higher than that under the colorless mulch. Conclu-sion It is not suitable to use plastic mulch only in irrigation and drainage ditches with snails widely in Yunnan Province be-cause of its low effect,and if necessary,the molluscicide should be added.
