Application advances of three-dimensional bioprinting in burn and plastic surgery field / 中华烧伤杂志

Three-dimensional bioprinting is one of the latest and fastest growing technologies in the medical field. It has been implemented to print part of the transplantable tissues and organs, such as skin, ear, and bone. This paper introduces the application status, challenges, and application prospect of three-dimensional bioprinting in burn and plastic surgery field.

Clinical trial of lactate clearance rate as guide of fluid resuscitation in multiple trauma patients with hemorrhage shock / 重庆医学

Objective To evaluate the effect of the lactate clearance rate as a guide of the fluid resuscitation in multiple trauma patients with hemorrhage shock .Methods Sixty‐three multiple trauma patients with hemorrhage shock were divided into two groups ,which were group A (32 patients) and group B (31 patients) .In group A ,the central venous pressure (CVP) between8 and 12 mm Hg ,and the mean arterial pressure (MAP) (65 ± 5) mm Hg served as the goals of the fluid resuscitation .The B group ap‐plied the same goals of the CVP and MAP as group A .In addition ,the calculated lactate clearance rate (≥10% ) was used as the treatment target .The percent of patients reaching resuscitation goals and the ratio of the lactate clearance rate (≥10% ) at 2 hours after surgery ,the volume difference of infusion during the first 24 hours ,the incidences of organ dysfunction ,and the average days in ICU were compared between the two groups .Results The percent of patients reaching resuscitation goals at 2 hours after sur‐gery of group A was significantly higher than that of group B(P0 .05) .The incidence of organ dysfunction of group A was higher than that of group B (P<0 .05) .The average days in ICU of group A were longer than that of group B(P<0 .01) .Conclusion Based on monitoring CVP and MAP ,fluid resuscitation under the guidance of the lactate clearance rate(≥10% )may decrease the incidences of organ dysfunction and the days of patients in ICU .

The application of nasal ventilation function on sleep-disordered breathing disorders / 临床耳鼻咽喉头颈外科杂志

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the change of nasal ventilation function in a group of SDB patients and its relationship to PSG parameters.@*METHOD@#One hundred twenty-eight controls, 11 habitual snorers, 33 cases of mild-moderate OSAHS and 33 cases of severe OSAHS were examined. NN1 Rhinospirometer was used to measure unilateral nasal respiratory capacity (NC(un)) and bilateral nasal respiratory capacity (NC(bi)), and the nasal partitioning ratio (NPR) can be calculated. NR6 Rhinomanometry was used to measure total nasal inspiratory and expiratory resistance (TNRi, TNRe). A1 acoustic rhinometry was used to measure distances of the two notches to the nostril (MD1, MD2), cross-sectional areas of the two notches (MCA1, MCA2) and nasal volume from 0-5 cm (NV(0-5)). Moreover, make the correlational analysis on different index of nasal functional tests and PSG.@*RESULT@#(1) Significant group differences were shown in NPR (P < 0.01). (2) TNRi and TNRe were statistical different among the groups (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05). (3) There are significant difference on MD1, MCA1, MCA2, NV(0-5) in male, but just on MD1 in female. (4) There was no correlation between PSG parameters and nasal functional parameters in SDB patients. But for certain subgroup analysis in female patients with a body mass index below 25, minimum oxygen saturation correlated significantly with MCA2 (r = 0.688, P < 0.05), arousal index correlated significantly with MCA1 (r = 0.543, P < 0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#The nasal anatomical structure and physiological function contribute to the pathogenesis of OSAHS, which may play a larger role in non-obese female patients.
