An experimental study was designed on the treatment of 8 superficial burn wounds and 5 wounds after removing the split-thickness skin grafts with 200GS permanent magnetic flat dressings, and some of the wounds were chosen at random which did not received any treatment and would be served as control. It was noted that the volume of exudate in the treatment group was 11.9 50.7% less than that of the control group, and the total protein, the albumin and globulin contents in the treatment cases were far less in exudate than those of the control cases. It was concluded that the magnetic therapy not only decresed the exudate, but also diminished the amount of total protein, albumin and globulin in the exudating fluid and it was of benefit to wound recovery.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the feasibility of osteoid callus allograft as a kind of bone healing promoting materials. METHODS The osteoid callus was obtained at one week after bilateral femoral fracture of a SD rat, then was kept at -196 C for 2 weeks. The bone defect model which bone repair was in intra-membranous osteogenesis was made at bilateral tibial shaft in 5 rats, and filled with the osteoid callus in the left defect area, the right side was filled with allogenous cancellous as control group. The specimen were processed with undecalcified technique and the sections were staining with light blue and sofranin T. RESULTS After 2 weeks, there were cartilage and bone formation in the defect area of osteoid callus graft group(3/4), medullary cavity formation in bone tissue with cartilage arround it, fibrous tissues between new bone and host bone. While there were no cartilage or bone formation in the control group. CONCLUSION The allograft osteoid callus is not absorbed by immunological rejection, but changed into bone tissue through endochondral osteogenesis. It is inspiring to develop osteoid callus allograft as a kind of material for bone healing.
This article introduces the exploration and establishment of “grass-roots Party building + targeted poverty alleviation” model by the Party Branch of Emergency Department of West China Hospital of Sichuan University, and discusses how to establish the “trinity mode” of management support, personnel training, and on-site guidance under the leading of grass-roots Party building through a series of the branches combined activities, according to the core idea of “strengthening the Party construction, bringing people closer together, and promoting development”. The aim is to form a long-term mechanism of grass-roots Party building and targeted medical poverty alleviation through continuously implementing this model, which can benefit more people in remote and ethnic minority areas and contribute to “Healthy China 2030”.
Coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic is a serious and infectious public health event that causes physical damage and may also have an impact on mental health. West China Hospital of Sichuan University combines the internet hospital platform with the traditional telephone model, establishes a new coronavirus disease 2019 intervention integration platform, and builds a new “four-in-one” medical service system, which contains epidemic consultation, psychological consultation, self-evaluation and home prevention and control. It has established a way for the public to communicate with professional, reduced the spread of coronavirus disease 2019 in space, and effectively carried out psychological decompression and comfort work, disseminated the knowledge of fighting coronavirus disease 2019, and provided medical advice. This article mainly introduces the out-of-hospital psychological intervention model of West China Hospital of Sichuan University during the coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic, and aims to provide a reference for exploring the psychological intervention methods for major public health emergencies.
By analyzing the current situation and problems of China’s precision healthy poverty alleviation, combining the current situation of poverty alleviation areas and its own clinical and regional advantages, West China Hospital of Sichuan University explores a practical “West China Way” to solve the healthy poverty problem. We insist on demand orientation, build the top-level design, and implement precise policies. Starting with the promotion of health screening, we actualizes hospital management, multi-disciplinary collaboration, integrated medical care construction according to regional needs, “double-group” style assistance, stratified and graded training, and telemedicine education. As the combination of “transfusion” and “hematopoiesis”, we help the local areas to build modern systems of hospital management, technology, and human resource.
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of probiotics for treating irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Methods The following databases as PubMed, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, EMbase, MD Consult, CNKI, CBM and WanFang Data were searched from the data of their establishment to June 2011 to collect the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on probiotics for treating IBS. The data were extracted and cross-checked independently by two reviewers, the methodological quality of trials was evaluated with Cochrane Handbook 5.0.2 criteria, and Meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.1 software. Results A total of 20 RCTs involving 1 713 patients were included. Results of meta-analyses showed that compared with the placebo, probiotics was statistically and significantly better in improving the overall symptoms, alleviating abdominal pain/discomfort and relieving abdominal distention. Conlusion Current evidence shows probiotics may play a role in improving the symptoms of IBS. Due to a lot of differences existing among the included studies in aspects of methodological quality, diagnostic criteria, evaluation methods, dosage and course of treatment, this conclusion should be further tested with more strictly-designed and high-quality RCTs.
Objective To collect and analyze the data of emergency medicine supply for both Wenchuan and Lushan earthquakes victims in the West China Hospital, so as to provide evidence for scientifically and efficiently carrying out the logistical support for emergency rescue medicines supply, and improving the coping capacity for those similar public health emergencies. Methods Both medicine constituent ratios and DDDs were taken as evaluation indexes, and the data were input by Excel software. Then the following items were analyzed: the use and cost of emergency medicine for victims admitted in the hospital from one day to one month after earthquake, as well as, the acceptance, allocation and use of the donation medicines for both Wenchuan and Lusan earthquakes. Results During the first month after Lushan earthquake, the victims used 26 categories of medicines involving 455 drug specifications in the West China Hospital. The dosage and DDDs of therapeutic medicines were higher than those of ancillary medicines. The donation medicines for Lushan earthquake accepted by the hospital were in 8 categories involving 16 drug specifications, and they were all used to rescue the victims in the hospital. Based on the hospital emergency medicine supply system oriented by the information of victim’s medicine use, the drug specification and total drug cost of the donation medicines for Lushan earthquake decreased by 90.91% and 89.73%, respectively, indicating a more accurate and efficient system compared with those for Wenchuan earthquake. Conclusion The implementation of the hospital emergency medicine supply system oriented by the information of victim’s medicine use is helpful to improve the time efficiency and pertinence of earthquake medical rescue.
