  • Effects of autologous platelet-rich gel on the treatment of refractory diabetic foot ulcer

    Objective To investigate the effects of autologous platelet-rich gel (APG) combined with intelligent trauma negative-pressure comprehensive therapeutic instrument on patients with refractory diabetic foot ulcer (DFU). Methods A total of 80 patients with refractory DFU treated in the hospital from January 2015 to January 2017 were divided into the trial group (n=40) and the control group (n=40) by the random number table method. The patients in the two groups were given routine treatment, and on the basis, the patients in the control group were treated with the intelligent trauma negative-pressure comprehensive therapeutic instrument while the ones in the trial group were treated with APG combined with intelligent trauma negative-pressure therapeutic instrument alternately. All patients were observed for 12 weeks. The cure rates, healing time and changes of wound volumes in the two groups before treatment and at 2, 4, 8, and 12 weeks after treatment were recorded. Results The total effective rate of treatment in the trial group was higher than that in the control group (87.5% vs. 67.5%, P<0.05). The wound volumes in the two groups at 4, 8 and 12 weeks after treatment were smaller than those before treatment and at 2 weeks after treatment (P<0.05). The wound volumes in the trial group at 4, 8 and 12 weeks after treatment were significantly smaller than those in the control group (P<0.05). The healing times of Wagner Ⅱ and Ⅲ DFU in the trial group were significantly shorter than those in the control group [(24.71±4.29)vs. (33.84±6.09) days, P<0.05; (33.04±5.97)vs. (45.29±7.05) days, P<0.05]. Conclusion Alternate treatment with APG combined with intelligent trauma negative-pressure comprehensive therapeutic instrument for refractory DFU can promote wound healing, shorten wound healing time, and improve the clinical efficacy.

  • The association between levels of serum leptin and hepatitis C virus: a meta-analysis

    ObjectivesTo systematically review the association between serum leptin level and hepatitis C virus.MethodPubMed, EMbase, Web of Science, CNKI, CBM, VIP and WanFang Data databases were electronically searched to collect case-control studies on the association between serum leptin level and hepatitis C virus from 2007 to July, 2017. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software.ResultsA total of 11 studies including 1 115 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed the serum leptin level was higher in hepatitis C patients than in healthy people (SMD=0.68, 95%CI 0.44 to 0.91, P<0.000 01). The results of subgroup analysis showed that, in hepatitis C patients whose serum leptin levels detected by RIA and European population, serum leptin levels were higher. Women had higher serum leptin levels than men in hepatitis C virus patients (P<0.000 01).ConclusionThe serum leptin level is associated with hepatitis C virus and the serum leptin levels of women are higher than those in men. Due to limited quantity and quality of the included studies, more high quality studies are required to verify above conclusions.
