Objective To analyze the dynamic change rule of gut microbiota in patients with extremely severe burns using 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) high-throughput sequencing technology. Methods Five patients with extremely severe burns who were admitted to Hwa Mei Hospital of University of Chinese Academy of Sciences from February to June 2017 and conformed to the inclusion criteria were included in the prospective observational study. All patients were males with age of 32-48 years. Fecal samples were collected in the shock stage (within 3 days after injury), early stage of acute infection (4-14 d after injury), middle stage of acute infection (15-28 d after injury), late stage of acute infection (from 29 d after injury to 1 week before discharge) and within 1 week before discharge. The number of samples was 5 in each stage. The fecal pH value was measured using a pH meter. High-throughput sequencing technology was applied for sequencing of 16S rRNA V3 and V4 regions of fecal samples. QIIME software was used to analyze tvalue increases, the bacterial species and diversity decrease, especially the relative abundance of acid-produced bacteria is significantly reduced, which gradually recover with the improvement of the patient's condition. The pH value and the changes of Proteobacteria and acid-producing bacteria could be considered as suitable parameters for reflecting the disorder level of gut microbiota in patients with extremely severe burns.Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of different modes of continuous negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) on venous ulcer wounds of lower limbs, and to analyze the influencing factors. Methods From January 2018 to December 2019, 53 patients with venous ulcer of lower limbs who met the inclusion criteria and hospitalized in the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangnan University were recruited in this prospective randomized controlled study. According to the random number table, the patients were divided into single negative pressure therapy (SNPT) group (19 patients, 11 males and 8 females), cyclic alternating negative pressure therapy (CANPT) group (17 patients, 12 males and 5 females), and routine dressing change (RDC) group (17 patients, 10 males and 7 females), aged (47±11), (49±10), and (47±10) years respectively. After admission, patients in SNPT group were given continuous NPWT with the single negative pressure setting at -13.3 kPa, patients in CANPT group were also given continuous NPWT but with the ce and cyclic alternating negative pressure mode has a positive effect on improving the wound base and healing rate of venous ulcer of lower limbs. But cyclic alternating negative pressure mode is significantly more effective than single negative pressure mode in improving TcPO(2) around the wound, reducing wound pH value, reducing exudate volume and relieving pain. The serum levels of TNF-α and bFGF, TcPO(2) around the wound and the degree of wound pain were the risk factors that affect the wound healing significantly.Objective To investigate the effects and mechanism of copper oxide nanozymes on wound healing of full-thickness skin defects in diabetic mice. Methods (1) Copper oxide nanozymes were synthesized through the reaction of copper chloride and L-ascorbic acid. Serine inhibitor Transmission electron microscope was used for observing the particle size and morphology of copper oxide nanozymes, and dynamic light scattering particle size analyzers and Zeta potentiometer were used to analyze the hydrated particle size and surface potential of copper oxide nanozymes, respectively. (2) The hydrogen peroxide detection kit, superoxide anion determination kit, and 3, 3', 5, 5'-tetramethylbenzidine were used to test the hydrogen peroxide, superoxide anion, and hydroxyl radicals scavenging ability of 150 ng/mL copper oxide nanozymes, respectively, and the scavenging proportions of hydrogen peroxide, superoxide anion, and hydroxyl radicals were calculated. The sample numbers were all 3. (3) Mouse fibroblast cell line 3T3 cells were divided intoP less then 0.01). On PID 12, the length of regenerated epidermis in wounds of mice in copper oxide group was obviously longer than that in PBS group, the level of reactive oxygen species in wounds of mice in copper oxide group was obviously lower than that in PBS group. Conclusions Copper oxide nanozyme not only has good biocompatibility, but also has efficient reactive oxygen species scavenging activity. It can eliminate the over-expressed reactive oxygen species in the full-thickness defect wounds of diabetic mice, reduce oxidative stress and inflammation, thus promoting wound repair.Objective To compare the difference of pro-healing effect of porcine urinary bladder matrix (UBM) and porcine acellular dermal matrix (ADM) on full-thickness skin defect wounds in diabetic mice. Methods Thirty-six type 2 diabetic BKS db/db mice aged 10 weeks were divided into UBM group and ADM group according to the random number table, with 18 mice in each group and preoperative molarity of non-fasting blood glucose higher than 16.6 mmol/L. A circular full-thickness skin defect wound with 6 mm in diameter was made on the back of each mouse, and porcine UBM and porcine ADM scaffolds were implanted into the wounds of both groups correspondingly. Immediately after operation and on post operation day (POD) 7, 14, and 28, wounds were observed generally. On POD 7, 14, and 28, 6 mice of each group were collected respectively to calculate the rate of wound epithelialization, and then the corresponding mice were sacrificed after calculation, and the wound tissue was harvested to make slices. Six slices of the mice in neovascularization and expression of pro-healing growth factors.Objective To explore the effects and mechanism of Lactococcus lactis (L. lactis) thermo-sensitive hydrogel on the wound healing of full-thickness skin defects in diabetic mice. Methods (1) According to the volume ratio of bacteria to medium of 1∶100, about 5×10(8) colony forming units/mL (the same concentration below) L. lactis was cultured in M17GS liquid medium. The growth conditions were observed at 0 (immediately), 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 h of culture with a microplate reader. In addition, another colony of the bacteria was taken and cultured under the same condition mentioned above. The culture medium was collected at the same time points as mentioned above, and the supernatant of bacterial culture was isolated. With the supernatant, the pH value was measured with a desktop pH meter, and the concentration of L-lactic acid at 0 (immediately), 2, 4, 8, and 12 h of culture was determined by the L-lactic acid detection and analysis kit (n=3). (2) To prepare a simple thermo-sensitive hydrogel, the poloxamer thermo-sensitive polymer and M17GS liquid medium were mixed thoroughly according to the mass-volume ratio of 0.
