ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical effect of adjustable negative pressure drainage technique in the treatment of subcutaneous acute cellulitis.Methods Thirty patients with acute cellulitis were treated with adjustable pressure drainage technique after incision and drainage of subcutaneous infection.Results 22 patients with subcutaneous infectious wounds took the secondary suture after carrying out one-time regulated negative pressure therapy,and 8 patients with subcutaneous infectious wounds took the secondary suture after carrying out twice negative pressure therapies.The average time of negative pressure treatment was (7.3 ± 1.0) days.Thirty patients had subcutaneous infection wounds healed well and no recurrence was observed at 3 months follow-up.ConclusionThe repairment of negative pressure therapy adopted to treat the subcutaneous acute cellulitis can rapidly reduce the local and general symptoms of the patient,and apparently reduce the dressing change times.With simple operation and reliable curative effect the relapse rate of subcutaneous infectious wound can be enormously reduced.

ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the aging mechanisms of human adult adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) in vitro.Methods The hADSCs came from the production of normal patients with liposuction.The hADSCs were cultured in the 37℃ incubator and passed until the cells were senescent.The senescence-associated β-gal staining (SA-β-gal) and histone protein γH2AX staining were carried out in both young and old hADSCs.The quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was conducted to check the difference of the transcription function of the young and old hADSCs.Results The cultured hADSCs would be the senescent cells when the PD number was more than 35.The aging cells became big and had large flat nuclei and much more lososomes in the cytoplasm.The SA-β-gal staining and γH2AX staining were mostly positive in the aging hADSCs (PD>35) compared with the self-renewing hADSCs (PD<20).The qRT-PCR results showed that the transcription levels of Nanog and Oct4 gene were very low in aging hADSCs compared with the self-renewing ones.Conclusions The hADSCs will be senescent (SEN) when cultured and passed in vitro for long time and the aging process is similar to that of stem cells in vivo.The aging model of hADSCs can be established by this method and will be very useful in the anti-aging drug, regeneration medicine, tissue engineering and stem cell therapy.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the mechanism of sleeve gastrectomy combined with modified jejunoileal bypass (SG/MJIB) in improving the blood glucose of Goto-kakizaki (GK) rats.Methods According to the random meter method,the 28 GK rats were divided into 4 groups:sleeve gastrectomy with modified jejunoileal bypass (SG/MJIB),sleeve gastrectomy (SG),modified jejunoileal bypass (MJIB) and sham operation (SHAM).The changes of weight,food intake,fasting blood glucose,oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT),insulin tolerance test (ITT),plasma insulin and gastrointestinal hormonal (ghrelin and GLP-1) were monitored before and 16 weeks after surgery respectively.Results After surgery,the fasting blood glucose level in SG/MJIB group was obviously lower than that in SG,MJIB and SHAM groups (P＜0.05).From the 2nd week after surgery,OGTT of the SG/MJIB group was obviously improved compared to SG,MJIB,and SHAM groups (P＜0.02).In our post-op erative study,the insulin levels in SG/MJIB group were lower than those in SG,and SHAM groups (P＜0.05).Compared to MJIB and SHAM groups,ghrelin levels of SG/MJIB group were significantly decreased (P＜0.001),while GLP-1 levels of SG/MJIB group were higher than those of SG and SHAM groups (P＜0.01).Conclusions SG/ MJIB can improve insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion,and this effect is independent of the body weight and food intake.This study further validates that the gastrointestinal hormones play an important role in the pathogenesis and treatment mechanisms of type 2 diabetes mellitus.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the application of the parietal branches of superficial temporal artery island flap in the complex scalp defects.Methods A parietal branches of superficial temporal artery island flap on the ectatic scalp flap was designed to repair the complex scalp defects in 25cases and the repairing effect was observed.Results The island flaps were survived completely in 24patients,in which 1 patient had partial necrosis because of the flap tension was too large,but healed after local dressing and debridement.After followed up 6～ 12 months,the color and texture of the flap were the same to the surrounding normal scalp,and the shape was satisfactory.The flap donor site of hair growth was good,with well healing and no obvious complications.Conclusions The parietal branches of superficial temporal artery island flap can repair the complex scalp defects with the flexible flap design and movement.The flap survives well and the repair area is large.The flap and the surrounding scalp connects good.Therefore,it is a good method strongly recommended for small area complex scalp defects repair in clinics.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the role of androgen receptor (AR) and estrogen receptor (ER) on male pattern baldness (MPB). Methods The contents of AR and ER in donor and recipient sites of scalps after hair autografting were determinated in 13 cases of MPB. Fluorescent steroid hormone conjugate technique was employed in this study. Results There was no statistical difference in the contents of AR and ER between donor site and grafted scalps in recipient site. Conclusion After the donor tissues are transplanted to the recipient site (the former baldness site), there is no change in contents of AR and ER. The abnormal change of the content of AR and ER in scalp plays an important role in MPB development.
