Novel aminopropyl-functionalized periodic mesoporous organosilicas (APMO) were successfully prepared by co-condensation of 1,2-bis (triethoxysilyl) ethane (BTSE) and 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) with the template of cationic surfactants cetyltrimethylammonium chlorine (C_(18)TAC) in basic medium.With the characterization measurements of powder X-ray diffraction (XRD),FT-IR and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) so on,APMO had such advantages as good monodisperse microshperes,uniformly orderd mesopore and large specific surface areas.These mesoporous materials were directly considered to be the chromatographic stationary phases and analyzed by HPLC evaluation.During the research,the as-prepared APMO column had better permeability and three polycyclic aromatic compounds realized separation.In addition,the as-prepared APMO column had certain advantages in fast analysis.

Objective To investigate the effects of aggressive dosing of atorvastatin on the expression of SOCS1 in CD4 + Tlymphocytes from patients with unstable angina pectoris during peri-operative period of PCI.Methods A cohort of 50 patients with unstable angina pectoris were randomized (random number) to give pretreatment with either an aggressive dose (80 mg/d,n =25) or a routine dose (20 mg/d,n =25)of atorvastatin.Circulating CD4 +T cells were subsequently obtained prior to PCI,and also 18 h to 24 hours after PCI,using a magnetic cell sorting system (MACS).Fluorescence-based quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to measure expressions of SOCSI mRNA in the isolated CD4 + Tlymphocytes,and western blot analysis was used to detect levels of SOCS1 protein.Serum levels of IFN-γwere quantified using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs).Results Compared with routine dose group,the expressions of SOCS1 mRNA and protein levels were dramatically increased and those were higher in aggressive dose group following PCI (P ＜ 0.05).In contrast,serum levels of IFN-γsignificantly increased following PCI in both groups,but it was higher in routine dose group than in aggressive dose group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Treatment with aggressive dosing of atorvastatin reduced the post-PCI myocardial inflammatory response in patients with unstable angina pectoris,possibly modulating by up-regulating SOCS1 expression in CD4 + Tlymphocytes.

Objective: To explore the feasibility and clinical effect of autologous fat concentrate combined with split-thickness skin grafts in the repair of venous ulcer. Methods: From January 2015 to December 2018, a total of 16 patients diagnosed with venous ulcer were admitted to our department, and all patients received symptomatic and supportive treatment such as local debridement and dressing change. After the granulation tissue grew well, all patients received autologous adipose concentrate combined with spilit-thickness skin graft for repair. Results: All the grafted skin survived well, and the survival rate of grafted skin at 2 weeks after surgery was 86% to 99%. All patients were followed up to 6 months after surgery. The wounds of all patients were healed during the follow-up period. One patient suffered local ulcer recurrence due to repeated friction after healing and the ulcer recovered after dressing changing treatment. All the other patients had no recurrence during the follow-up period. The scar hyperplasia in the skin transplantation area was not obvious and the healing quality was good. No significant surgical complications occurred. Conclusions Autologous lipoconcentrate combined with split-thickness skin grafts is an effective and safe method in the repair of venous ulcer, and the application of autologous lipoconcentrate can effectively improve the survival rate and healing quality of skin grafts.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility of early treatment of congenital giant melanocytic nevus (CGMN).Methods:From October 2013 to December 2021, the clinical data of children with giant nevus treated with skin soft tissue expansion in the Plastic Surgery Department of Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital were analyzed retrospectively. A renal expander was implanted in the first stage, including single and repeated expansion. The giant nevus was removed and repaired in the second stage with an expanded skin flap. The occurrence of complications, such as wound infection, expander exposure, expander rupture, and flap congestion, were recorded. Children’s mental health problems and their parents’ satisfaction were also analyzed. The χ2 between children of different ages and the infection rate between children with an internal and external pot. Results:A total of 58 children, 24 males and 34 females, aged from 3 months to 3 years, with an average age of 1.45 years, were enrolled. A total of 190 expanders were implanted. The patients were followed for 5 to 106 months, averaging 42.43 months. In the first stage, 29 cases of wound infection, 41 cases of expander exposure, two cases of flap congestion, and 6 cases of expander rupture occurred. The flap transfers were not affected by these complications after appropriate treatment. The comparison of complication rates among 3 months~<1 year、1~<2 years、2~<3 years、3 years was 37.34%(31/83)、56.75% ((21/37) ), 33.33% (13/39) and 41.94%(13/31), respectively, No statistically significant difference ( χ2=5.21, P=0.157). The incidence of wound infection was 16.67% (6/36) and 14.94% (23/154), respectively, for the internal and external dilators. There was no significant difference in the location of the dilator pot and the incidence of wound infection ( χ2=0.07, P=0.795). The appearance of all children has been significantly improved. Thirty-nine children’s families are particularly satisfied, and 20 are generally satisfied with the treatment effect, and no mental health problems were found. Conclusions:Skin and soft tissue expansion is a reliable method for early treatment of congenital giant nevus.

Objective:To investigate the method, feasibility and clinical effect of scrotal flap in the immediate repair of penoscrotal Paget disease after excision.Methods:From January 2008 to September 2018, a total of 21 patients (age 42-74) diagnosed with penile scrotal Paget disease were admitted and treated in our department. All patients underwent local expanded resection, and intraoperative frozen section examination confirmed a negative margin. All patients used the scrotal flap or scrotal flap combined with other surgical methods to repair the defect.Results:Scrotal flaps were used in ten cases, scrotal flaps combined with other flaps in seven cases, and scrotal flaps combined with skin grafting in four cases. All the scrotal flaps had good blood supply, two cases had small partial skin graft necrosis, and one case had delayed healing of the flap donor area, and all the others had good wound healing. All patients were followed up for six months to 60 months, with an average follow-up time of 30.6 months. Most of the patients (95.2%, 20/21) were satisfied with the appearance of the penis and scrotum, and all the transferred flaps showed no edema. Local recurrence occurred in four patients within two years. Local recurrence and inguinal lymph node metastasis occurred in one patient within three years with a total local recurrence rate of 23.8% (5/21). Due to the small local recurrence lesion, the recurrence lesion was successfully repaired with the adjacent scrotal flap after expanding local excision, and the patients with inguinal lymph node metastasis received ipsilateral inguinal lymph node dissection.Conclusions:The scrotal flap has the characteristics of a large cutting area, flexible design, convenient transfer of flap, enough blood supply, simple, safe, and effective. Using this method can obtain a satisfactory shape of the penis and scrotum after the operation. Those defects that are difficult to use scrotal flap for a complete repair can be repaired with other flaps or skin grafts. A good therapeutic effect can be obtained as well. For the majority of recurrent lesions, scrotal skin flap can be reapplied.

Objective:To summarize the methods and effects of utilizing the ilioinguinal flap in repairing the defect after the extended resection of the middle and lower abdominal wall or the groin region’s dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans.Methods:From November 2011 to October 2018, nine patients (including five males) with the middle and lower abdominal wall or groin region’s dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans received extended resection procedures in the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery of Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University. The age distribution of patients was 27-60 years old with a mean age of 44.3 years old. The defect area following the extended resection of the tumor ranged from 9.5 cm × 10.5 cm to 15.0 cm × 18.0 cm, and the size of the ilioinguinal flap ranged from 6.0 cm × 11.0 cm to 8.0 cm × 15.0 cm. Either an axial flap or a V-Y advancement flap was used to repair the defect. Five patients were treated with the unilateral ilioinguinal flap, two with the bilateral ilioinguinal flap combination flap, one with the ilioinguinal flap combined with the tensor fascia lata myocutaneous flap, and one with the ilioinguinal flap combined with the anterolateral thigh flap.Results:All defects were covered by flaps completely, and all donor sites were closed directly. Eight flaps survived completely without necrosis, while one case of ilioinguinal flap faced the distal necrosis, which was debrided and repaired with full-thickness skin grafting in the second stage. The postoperative follow-up period ranged from 1.0 to 8.5 years. No local recurrence or other distant metastases occurred. All reconstructed regions had a good outline and ordinary sense function.Conclusions:Almost all defects after the extended resection of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans in the middle and lower abdominal wall or the groin region could be repaired with a unilateral or bilateral ilioinguinal flap, whose blood supply is stable and reliable. Moreover, the operation presented is simple, less time-consuming, safe, reliable, and with a satisfactory postoperative appearance.
