RESUMO
@#Objective To explore the application value of CT-guided microcoil localization in pulmonary nodule (diameter≤15 mm) surgery. Methods The clinical data of 175 patients with pulmonary nodules who underwent single utility port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery at Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from August 2018 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. According to whether CT-guided coil localization was performed before operation, they were divided into a locating group and a non-locating group. There were 84 patients (34 males, 50 females, aged 57.8±8.8 years) in the locating group and 91 patients (46 males, 45 females, aged 57.6±10.8 years) in the non-locating group. The localization success rate, localization time, incidence of complications, surgical and postoperative conditions were analyzed between the two groups. Results All 84 patients in the locating group were successfully located, and localization time was 19.0±3.6 minutes. Among them, 19 (22.6%) patients had a small pneumothorax, 4 (4.8%) pulmonary hemorrhage and 2 (2.4%) coil shift; 6 (7.1%) patients had mild pain, 3 (3.6%) moderate pain and 1 (1.2%) severe pain. Sex (P=0.181), age (P=0.673), nodule location (P=0.167), nature of lesion (P=0.244), rate of conversion to thoracotomy (P=0.414), rate of disposable resection of nodules (P=0.251) and postoperative hospital stay (P=0.207) were similar between the two groups. There were significant differences in nodule size (P<0.001), nature of nodule (P<0.001), the shortest distance from nodule to pleura (P<0.001), operation time (P<0.001), lung volume by wedge resection (P=0.031), number of staplers (P<0.001) and total hospitalization costs (P<0.001) between the two groups. Conclusion CT-guided microcoil localization has the characteristics of high success rate, and is simple, practicable, effective, safe and minimally invasive. Preoperative CT-guided microcoil localization has important clinical application value for small pulmonary nodules, especially those with small size, deep location and less solid components. It can effectively shorten the operation time, reduce surgical trauma and lower hospitalization costs, which is a preoperative localization technique worthy of popularization.
RESUMO
Different from other trauma, the scar and pigmentation formed after healing of burn wound not only hinder beauty but also easily lead to a series of sequential psychological problems, such as depression and anxiety. Music therapy, as a supplementary treatment, is widely used in many fields including medical and health care and psychological regulation. However, affected by factors such as medical resources, the awareness and acceptance of music therapy among burn treatment workers in China are still low. Based on the clinical characteristics of burns, this paper matches the applicability of music therapy with it, summarizes the supplementary application of music therapy in the field of burn treatment, expounds this natural science with both science and aesthetics, and puts forward feasible suggestions for its future development.

The global prevalence and incidence of autoimmune diseases are increasing year by year, and the autoimmune diseases have become a major threat to public health. In the progression of the diseases, persistent and complex abnormal immune responses often lead to long-term unhealed skin ulcers, which not only affect the life quality of patients, but also lead to the aggravation of primary diseases. Therefore, doctors in burn surgery and other wound repair surgeries should pay attention to the understanding of autoimmune diseases. In the treatment of autoimmune disease-related ulcers, it is recommended to formulate a unified treatment plan according to the law of occurrence and development of the diseases, and multidisciplinary cooperation is needed to accelerate wound healing and improve the quality of wound healing.

Results: Forty-one patients underwent CT examination. Plain CT showed liver enlargement in 20 cases, including enlargement of left lobe and caudate lobe in 7 cases. Decreased density of liver parenchyma was observed in 21 cases, different degrees abdominal effusion in 36 cases, and pleural effusion in 2 cases. Contrast-enhanced CT scan showed uneven enhancement of liver parenchyma in 31 cases, map-like enhancement in 21 cases, patchy uneven enhancement in 9 cases and minor enhancement in 1 case. Patchy map-like enhancement of the portal venous phase was detected in all patients, and the enhancement range further expanded during delayed phase. No bile duct dilatation nor angiogenesis of the medial and lateral hepatic branches was observed. Twelve patients underwent MR examination. Plain MRI showed uneven liver signals, the liver enlargement in 10 cases, and compressed and tapered posterior segment of inferior vena cava in 5 cases. No morphologic abnormality of gallbladder was found in 12 cases. Enhanced MRI showed uneven enhancement of liver parenchyma, and the reduced area of lamellar enhancement and abnormal enhancement foci were all map-shaped. Conclusion: CT and MRI manifestations of HSOS have certain characteristics, which are helpful for clinical diagnosis.
RESUMO
Cold injury is very damaging. This article summarizes the mechanism, types, and rehabilitation of cold injury, focusing on the degree and clinical treatment of frostbite. Frostbite can mainly cause damage of microcirculation and capillary structure, while burn injury can mainly cause damage of cutaneous tissues. Based on this, the key point of management of frostbite is to improve microcirculation and appropriate rewarming, while that of burn injury is wound repair. Up to date, the rate of amputation caused by frostbite is still high, and the rehabilitation for sequela caused by frostbite remains a big challenge in modern medicine. It is worth paying more attention to.
RESUMO
Fournier gangrene is a relatively rare clinical critical disease, and its clinical symptoms are not specific and easily unrecognized by some clinicians. It has the features of acute onset, quick development, severe illness, and often accompanied by infection shock which is seriously life-threatening. It is difficult in treatment with high medical costs and long length of hospitalization, which increases pain for patients and relatives and brings heavy economic and psychological burden on patients, society, and medical workers. By reviewing the literature home and abroad and combined with clinical practice, I summarize the researches on concept, epidemiology, clinical manifestation, diagnosis and treatment of Fournier gangrene, in order to provide reference for vast number of clinical workers.
RESUMO
Objective@#To explore the effects of recombinant human granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (rhGM-CSF) gel on treatment of thefull-thickness frostbite wounds on foot and hand.@*Methods@#From November 2013 to April 2017, a total of 45 patients of 71 full-thickness frostbite wounds on foot and hand meeting the inclusion criteria were admitted to the First Hospital of Jilin University and the prospective randomized controlled study was done. The patients were divided into rhGM-CSF group of 24 patients with 35 wounds and control group of 21 patients with 36 wounds according to the random number table. There were 20 males and 4 females, aged (38±13) years among patients in rhGM-CSF group, and there were 19 males and 2 females, aged (36±14) years among patients in control group. Patients in 2 groups were performed with the same systemic treatment of rewarming, anti-inflammation, pain relief, anti-infection, anti-coagulation, and thrombolysis. Wounds of patients in rhGM-CSF group and control group were respectively treated with rhGM-CSF gel and aloe vera gel for external usage with 10 mg for every square centimeter and dressing change once every 24 hours, until wounds healed completely. The wound inflammatory response was scored on treatment day (TD) 1, 3, 7, 14, wound secretion was collected for bacteria culture and positive bacteria detection rate was calculated before treatment and on TD 6 and 12, adverse drug reaction after drug use was observed, and the complete wound healing time was recorded. Data were processed with Fisher′s exact probability test, analysis of variance for repeated measurement, t test, and Bonferroni correction.@*Results@#The scores of wound inflammatory response of patients in 2 groups on TD 1 and 3 were close (t=0.37, 2.93, P>0.05). The scores of wound inflammatory response of patients on TD 7 and 14 in rhGM-CSF group were significantly higher than those in control group (t=5.77, 5.83, P<0.01). The results of bacteria culture of wound secretion of patients in 2 groups before treatment were negative. The positive bacteria detection rates of wound secretion of patients in rhGM-CSF group on TD 6 and 12 were 5.71% (2/35) and 22.86% (8/35), which were slightly lower than 13.89% (5/36) and 30.56%(11/36) in control group respectively, but there was no significantly statistical difference (P>0.05). No adverse drug response occurred in patients in rhGM-CSF group, while 1 patient in control group had adverse drug response, with symptoms of redness and swelling of wounds and patchy erythema on skin around wounds, which were alleviated by irrigating with normal saline. The complete wound healing time of patients in rhGM-CSF was (12.3±0.5) d, which was significantly shorter than (16.5±0.8) d in control group (t=24.89, P<0.05).@*Conclusions@#The topical rhGM-CSF gel has effects of shortening time of wound healing and reducing inflammatory response of wound on treatment of full-thickness frostbite wounds on foot and hand, which is safe in clinical application.
RESUMO
Objective@#To investigate effects of clinical strategy on repair of pressure injury on ischial tuberosity based on the histopathological type.@*Methods@#From January 2014 to January 2018, 33 patients with 33 pressure injuries on ischial tuberosity were admitted to our department. There were 25 males and 8 females aged 35 to 87 years. Pressure injuries on ischial tuberosity were repaired with different methods according to pathological types of denatured tissue on basal parts of wounds and tissue defect volumes. Areas of wounds after thorough debridement ranged from 2.0 cm×1.0 cm to 14.0 cm×12.0 cm. Pressure injuries of necrosis type with tissue defect volumes of 6.5-9.5 cm3 were sutured directly after debridement at the first stage. Tissue defect volumes of 3 patients with pressure injuries of granulation type ranged from 56.0 to 102.5 cm3. According to situation around wounds, the above mentioned 3 patients were respectively repaired with posterior femoral Z-shaped reconstruction, posterior femoral advanced V-Y flap, and posterior femoral propeller flap. Tissue defect volumes of 5 patients with pressure injuries of infection type ranged from 67.5 to 111.0 cm3. Among the patients, 2 patients were repaired with posterior femoral propeller flaps, 2 patients were repaired with posterior femoral advanced V-Y flaps, and 1 patient was repaired with posterior femoral Z-shaped reconstruction. Among patients with pressure injuries of synovium type, wounds of 14 patients with tissue defect volumes 6.4-9.5 cm3 were sutured directly after debridement, and tissue defect volumes of another 8 patients were 97.0-862.5 cm3. Among the 8 patients, 7 patients were repaired with gluteus maximus myocutaneous flaps and continued vacuum sealing drainage was performed for 7 to 14 days according to volume of drainage, and 1 patient was repaired with posterior femoral propeller flap. Areas of flaps or myocutaneous flaps ranged from 3.5 cm× 2.5 cm to 14.0 cm×12.0 cm. The donor sites of flaps were sutured directly. Operative areas after operation and healing of wounds during follow-up were observed.@*Results@#The sutured sites of 33 patients connected tightly, with normal skin temperature, color, and reflux. During follow-up of 12 months, wounds of 25 patients healed well with no local ulceration, and 8 patients were admitted to our department again due to recurrence of pressure injuries on or near the primary sites. Pathological types of pressure injuries of the 8 patients were synovium types. After complete debridement, the tissue defect volumes were 336.8-969.5 cm3, wounds with areas ranged from 8.0 cm×7.0 cm to 14.0 cm×12.0 cm were repaired with gluteus maximus myocutaneous flaps or posterior femoral propeller flaps which ranged from 8.0 cm×7.0 cm to 14.0 cm×12.0 cm. Eight patients were discharged after wound healing completely. During follow-up of 12 months, operative sites of the patients healed well, with no recurrence.@*Conclusions@#Appropriate and targeted methods should be chosen to repair pressure injuries on ischial tuberosity based on the pathological types. Direct suture after debridement is the first choice to repair pressure injury of necrosis type. Pressure injuries of granulation type and infection type can be repaired with posterior femoral propeller flap, Z-shaped reconstruction, or advanced V-Y flap according to situation around wounds. Gluteus maximus myocutaneous flap is the first choice to repair pressure injury of synovium type. In addition, recurrence-prone characteristics of pressure injury of synovium type should be taken into consideration, plan should be made previously, and resources should be reserved.
RESUMO
Bacteria usually colonize, reproduce, and grow aggressively on chronic wounds in the form of biofilm. Different from free bacteria, bacteria in biofilm exhibit unique mechanism in epigenetics and biological behavior, especially in resistance to antibiotics and host immunity. In this article, we introduce the composition and structural function of bacterial biofilm, expound the drug-resistance mechanism of bacterial biofilm, discuss the clinical characteristics of bacterial biofilm infection wound and the diagnosis method of biofilm, and analyze the treatment strategy for bacterial biofilm. It is suggested that clinicians should pay more attention to bacterial biofilm infection and advocate in-depth study of bacterial biofilm in order to improve the quality of managing chronic wounds.
RESUMO
To use hairy roots for producing medicinal ingredients of Phytolacca americana L. we studied the factors influencing the induction and in vitro culture. Hairy roots could be incited from the veins of cut surface (morphological lower) of P. americana L. leaf explants around 18 days after infection with the strain of Agrobacterium rhizogenes ATCC15834. The highest rooting rate, 70%, was obtained when leaf explants were pre-cultured for 1 day, infected for 20 min, and co-cultured for 4 days. The transformation was confirmed by PCR amplification of rolC of Ri plasmid and silica gel thin-layer chromatography of opines from P. americana L. hairy roots. All the hairy root lines could grow rapidly on solid exogenous phytohormone-free MS medium. Among the 9 hairy root lines, the hairy root line 2 had most rapid growth, most branched lateral roots and most intensive root hair; the root surface of some hairy root lines seemed purple or red, while that of the other hairy root line appeared white. Among liquid media MS, 1/2MS, B5 and 6,7-V tested, the best growth for hairy root lines was attained in liquid exogenous phytohormone-free MS medium. Compared with exogenous phytohormone-free MS medium, 6,7-V medium was better for synthesis and accumulation of esculento side A in hairy roots. The established optimal conditions for induction and in vitro culture of P. americana hairy roots had laid an experimental and technological foundation for production of medicinal constituents esculento side A from large scale culture of hairy roots.
RESUMO
Bacterial biofilms are considered to be the hindrance in the treatment of chronic wound, because of their tolerance toward antibiotics and other antimicrobial agents. They also have strong ability to escape from the host immune attack. Acetic acid, as a kind of organic weak acid, can disturb the biofilms by freely diffusing through the bacterial biofilms and bacterial cell membrane structure. Then the acid dissociates to release the hydrogen ions, leading to the disorder of the acid-base imbalance, change of protein conformation, and the degradation of the DNA within the membranes. This paper reviews the literature on the characteristics and treatment strategies of the bacterial biofilms and the acetic acid intervention on them, so as to demonstrate the roles acetic acid may play in the treatment of chronic wound, and thus provide a convincing treatment strategy for this kind of disease.
