Objective:To investigate the application value of transversus abdominis muscle release technique in giant ventral hernia repair.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinical data of 72 patients with giant ventral hernia who were admitted to Beijing Chaoyang Hospital of Capital Medical University from January 2017 to January 2020 were collected. There were 47 males and 25 females, aged from 29 to 79 years, with a median age of 56 years. All patients underwent ventral hernia repair with transversus abdominis muscle release technique and preperitoneal/retro-muscular polypropylene mesh reinforcement. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) postoperative complications; (3) hernia-related quality of life. Follow-up was conducted using outpatient examination and telephone interview to detect postoperative complications at postoperative 1, 6 and 12 months. Follow-up was up to January 2021. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison within groups was analyzed using the paired t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M (range). Count data were described as absolute numbers. Results:(1) Surgical situations: all 72 patients underwent ventral hernia repair with transversus abdominis muscle release technique and preperitoneal/retro-muscular polypropylene mesh reinforcement successfully. The operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss and mesh size of the 72 patients were (105±46)minutes, (55±15)mL and (680±225)cm 2, respectively. (2) Postoperative complications: 72 patients were followed up for 12 to 48 months, with a median follow-up time of 16 months. During the follow-up, 7 of the 72 patients were diagnosed with seroma by abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan at postoperative 1 week, the size of which was (460±130)mm 2. The 7 patients with seroma were followed up and results of abdominal CT scan at postoperative 6 months showed that the seroma was completely absorbed. Two of the 72 patients had postoperative intestinal obstruction, which was considered as postoperative paralytic ileus. After conservative treatment, the 2 patients were improved 2 weeks after operation. None of the 72 patients had surgical site infection, intestinal fistula or hernia recurrence. (3) Hernia-related quality of life: the score of hernia-related quality of life of 72 patients before operation and at postoperative 12 months were 40±12 and 73±17, respectively, showing a significant difference ( t=12.527, P<0.05). Conclusion:Transversus abdominis muscle release technique in the giant ventral hernia repair is safe and effective, which can improve hernia-related quality of life of patients.

Cancer immunotherapy can effectively inhibit cancer progression by activating the autoimmune system, with low toxicity and high effectiveness. Some of cancer immunotherapy had positive effects on clinical cancer treatment. However, cancer immunotherapy is still restricted by cancer heterogeneity, immune cell disability, tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment and systemic immune toxicity. Cell membrane-coated nanoparticles (CMCNs) inherit abundant source cell-relevant functions, including "self" markers, cross-talking with the immune system, biological targeting, and homing to specific regions. These enable them to possess preferred characteristics, including better biological compatibility, weak immunogenicity, immune escaping, a prolonged circulation, and tumor targeting. Therefore, they are applied to precisely deliver drugs and promote the effect of cancer immunotherapy. In the review, we summarize the latest researches of biomimetic CMCNs for cancer immunotherapy, outline the existing specific cancer immune therapies, explore the unique functions and molecular mechanisms of various cell membrane-coated nanoparticles, and analyze the challenges which CMCNs face in clinical translation.

Objective:To explore the effect of moderate intensity physical exercise on depression, anxiety and cognitive function of schizophrenic patients and its possible biochemical mechanism.Methods:Totally 148 patients with schizophrenia who were hospitalized in hospital from March 2019 to March 2021 were randomly divided into control group ( n=75) and exercise group ( n=73). The patients of the two groups were given drug treatment and routine exercise according to clinical practice, and the patients in exercise group were given additional medium-intensity physical exercise.Self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self-rating depression scale (SDS) were used to evaluate the poor mental state of the subjects.The verbal fluency task(VFT), digital span test(DST), trail making test-A(TMT-A) and the positive and negative symptom scale (PANSS) were used to evaluate cognitive function.The levels of endocannabinoids (eCBs) receptors were detected by high performance liquid chromatography, and the levels of monoamine neurotransmitters and eCBs in the patients' serum were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). SPSS 19.0 software was used for statistical analysis.The measurement data between the two groups were compared by t-test and the counting data between the two groups were compared by χ2 test. Results:(1) After effective intervention, the scores of SAS, SDS, TMT-A and PANSS of the two groups were significantly lower than those before intervention, and the difference before and after intervention between the two groups was statistically significant( t=6.00, 6.52, 25.79, 17.03, all P<0.01). The scores of SAS, SDS, TMT-A and PANSS after intervention in the exercise group were significantly lower than those in the control group( t=4.66, 20.88, 6.61, 8.95; all P<0.01). The number of VFT and DST in the two groups after intervention were significantly higher than those before intervention, and the differences before and after intervention between the two groups were statistically significant( t=13.78, 22.76, both P<0.01). After effective intervention, the number of VFT and DST in exercise group were significantly higher than those in the control group( t=5.02, 5.15, both P<0.01). (2) After effective intervention, the contents of monoamine neurotransmitters and eCBs in serum of the two groups were significantly higher than those before intervention, and HVA level ((63.68±6.99) pg/mL), MHPG level ((175.90±16.22) pg/mL), 5-HIAA level ((29.94±4.19) pg/mL) and CBR1 level ((6.70±1.40)μg/L), 2-AG level ((61.90±5.73)pmol/g) and AEA level ((76.48±6.59) pmol/g) in exercise group were significantly higher than those in the control group ((52.97±5.37)pg/mL, (138.50±11.52)pg/mL, (23.87±3.15)pg/mL, (5.71±1.29)μg/L, (52.13±5.14)pmol/g, (67.66±5.88)pmol/g)( t=10.43, 16.21, 10.91, 8.65, all P<0.01). Conclusion:Moderate intensity physical exercise can significantly improve their depression, anxiety and cognitive function, which may be related to regulating the levels of ECBS and their receptors in patients with chronic schizophrenia to increase monoamine neurotransmitters.
