ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effects of daurinsoline (DS) on L-type calcium channel Cav1.2 expressed in HEK293 cells.Methods:Cav1.2 was transferred into HEK293 cells using Lipofectamine 2000, and the effects of DS on Cav1.2 currents (ICav1.2) were analyzed by whole-cell patch clamp techniques. Results:DS at 1,3 and 10 μmol·L-1could inhibit the ICav1.2in HEK293 cells in a dose-dependent manner. The inhibitory rate was(14.68 ± 4.02) %,(32.37 ± 6.63) % and(59.63 ± 5.23) %,respectively. The inhibitory rate of DS at 3 μmol·L-1was 40 % of that of 3 μmol·L-1isradipine(a L-type calcium channel blocker). Conclusion:DS can inhibit the ICav1.2in HEK293 cells in a dose-dependent manner and the inhibition of DS is weaker than that of isradipine.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of different combination regimens on patients with high-frequency sudden sensorineural hearing loss(SSNHL). Methods 82 patients with high-frequency SSNHL from December 2013 to May 2017 were enrolled. The control group was treated with hormone,lidocaine, and genetein combination therapy,while the observation group received systemic hormones,and local hormones combined with hyperbaric oxygen therapy,the average frequency of pure tone valve improvement,complications and adverse reactions in two groups were compared.Results After the treatment,the average pure tone of the two groups was significantly improved than pretherapy(tcontrol group = 10.28,P = 0.00;tobservation group = 11.06, P=0.00),but there was no significant difference in hearing improvement between the two groups(t=0.680,P=0.698),the total effective rate in the control group was 63.41%,in which the observation group was 68.29%,the difference was not statistically significant(χ2=0.230,P=0.816),but the cure rate was 26.83% in the observa-tion group which was higher than that in the control group(7.32%)(χ2=2.05,P=0.040).There was no signifi-cant difference in improvement of complication(tinnitus and ear nausea)between the two groups(χ2Tinnitus =0.000,P=1.000;χ2Aurussion=0.000,P=1.000),and there was no obvious adverse reaction in both groups. Conclusions Treatment of high-frequency SSNHL,hormone and hyperbaric oxygen therapy is good and safe, which can effectively improve the patient′s complication(tinnitus and ear nausea).
ABSTRACT
Objective Discuss the clinical efficacy by using two kinds of mini perforator free flap for digital injuries reconstruction. Methods From August, 2014 to February, 2017, 45 patients were managed randomly with either radial artery superficial palmar branch(RASPB)perforator free flap or digital artery(DA)perforator free flap for digital skin defects reconstruction, and they were therefore divided into two groups according to the flap type. There were 24 patients in RASPB group, with an average wound dimensions ranged from 1.8 cm×1.5 cm to 4.0 cm×2.5 cm, and an average harvested flap size ranged from 2.0 cm×1.7 cm to 4.2 cm×2.6 cm. Another 21 patients were in DA group, with an average wound dimensions ranged from 2.0 cm×1.5 cm to 3.8 cm×3.0 cm, and an average harvested flap size ranged from 2.2 cm×1.6 cm to 3.9 cm×3.2 cm. The survival rate, sensory function, donor site complications, hand function recovery and aesthetic outcomes of two groups were compared by the SPSS22.0 statistical software after surgery. Results The mean follow up period was 15 months. All flaps were primary survived without vascular crisis. The flaps were soft in texture,trimness in appearance and none of them overtop the normal skin for more than 0.5 cm. Both groups had a favorable sensory recovery.All cases recovery to S3+or better.In Group RASPB,the mean two point discrimination(2 PD)was 7.85±1.15 mm(ranged from 7.0 mm to 9.0 mm). And it was 6.02±0.94 mm(ranged from 6.0 mm to 8.0 mm)in DA group. The difference between two groups was statistically significant(P <0.05). Then we synthetically analyzed flap texture and sensory function,and calculated the qualified ratio of each group.There was no significant difference between two groups(P > 0.05). The degree of scar contracture demonstrated donor site compli cations in RASPB group was lesser than that in DA group(P<0.05).The range of motion of interphalangeal joint was used to reflect the hand function. And we calculated the ratio of repaired and contralateral sites. The difference of the mean ratio between two groups was not statistically significant(P>0.05). Conclusion On account of the characteristics of invariant anatomy position, sufficient blood supply, favorable aesthetic outcome and minimal donor site mobility, both RASPB perforator flap and DA perforator flap were optimal for digital skin defects reconstruction.Besides,incorporated with nerve and tendon,the RASPB perforator flap can also be used for complex tissue transplantation,and the surgery field was only on the arm.While the DA perforator free flap had an advantage of better sensory recovery and appearance.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the outcome of the procedure of using the free flap vascularized by the dorsal artery of big toe to treat finger skin defect.Methods From August 2010 to April 2013,21 cases of finger shin defect were treated with the free flap vascularized by the dorsal artery of big toe in which emergency surgeries were conducted in 9 cases and sub emergency surgeries were conducted in 12 cases.The age of the 21 patients was 21 to 48 years old and 15 of them were males and 6 were females.Thumb was involved in 6 patients and index finger was involved in 15 patients.The skin defect occurred at dorsal in 7 patients and palm in 14 patients.The area of the flaps ranged from 2.2 cm × 1.6 cm to 4.0 cm × 3.2 cm.Observed the restoration of the affected fingers' appearance and function,investigated the clinical results and concluded the indication and advantages and disadvantages of this procedure by following up.Results All of the 21 flaps survived at the last office visit.The follow-up period ranged from 3 to 18 months.The shapes and the fingerprints of the flaps were satisfied.The color and texture of the flaps were similar to those of the finger skin.The 2 points discriminations of the flaps was 6-8 mm.No function deficits were found in the donor feet.Conclusion This free flap is satisfied in the shape,easy to harvested and the blood supply was constant in its location,and recommend it in treating the small of middle area skin defect in the finger.
