Objective:To investigate the effect of folding and filling the orbicularis muscle flap of the inferiorcentral pedicle in correction of sunken upper eyelids.Methods:From August 2020 to April 2022, 39 female patients aged 36-63 (47.1±6.3) years with dermatochalasis and sunken upper eyelid were admitted to the Plastic Surgery Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University. During the surgery, the orbicularis oculi muscle in the skin resection area was preserved and a muscle flap was formed with the central part of the lower margin of the incision as the pedicle, which was folded deep and filled in the anterior orbital septal space. 6 months after surgery, the Park method was used to compare the effects before and after surgery, and the doctors and patients were scored on the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale, respectively.Results:Unilateral upper eyelid hematoma appeared in 1 patient and healed after local acupuncture and aspiration, unilateral incision induration appeared in 2 patients, and gradually disappeared after 6 months of follow-up. The wounds of other patients healed in one stage. All the 39 patients were followed up for 6-12 months. The scores of the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale at 6 months after surgery were (4.12±0.95) for doctors and (3.82±1.27) for patients. Park method showed that the degree of sunken upper eyelid after surgery was significantly better than that before surgery, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-7.721, P=0.000). Conclusions:The folding and filling of the orbicularis muscle flap of the eye with the inferior central pedicle can correct the laxity of the upper eyelid and improve the sunken upper eyelid. This operation can make full use of local tissue, and the effect is simple and lasting.

Objective:To analyze the effects of microvascular invasion (MVI) and anatomical hepatectomy on early recurrence and survival of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods:The data of 246 patients with HCC admitted to 215 Hospital of Shaanxi Nuclear Industry, Chinese PLA General Hospital and Beijing Tsinghua Chang Gung Hospital from July 2008 to June 2019 were retrospectively analyzed, including 208 males and 38 females, aged (53.8±9.6) years. According to the occurrence of MVI, 246 patients were divided into the MVI group ( n=83) and control group ( n=163, without MVI). Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, preoperative alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), maximum tumor diameter, intraoperative blood loss were compared between the two groups. The recurrence-free survival and cumulative survival were compared between the two groups before and after the inverse probability weighted correction for propensity score. Results:The propensity score was calculated by logistic regression model. After inverse probability weighted correction, the virtual sample size was 247 cases (82 cases in MVI group and 165 cases in control group). The proportion of HBV infection, with a serum level of AFP > 200 μg/L, the maximum diameter of tumor and the intraoperative blood loss were higher in MVI group (all P<0.05). The risk of early recurrence in patients undergoing anatomical hepatectomy ( n=107) was lower than that in patients undergoing non-anatomical hepatectomy ( n=139) (univariate Cox regression analysis of HR=1.60, 95% CI: 1.06 to 2.42, P=0.020), but the overall survival was comparable (univariate Cox regression analysis of HR=1.66, 95% CI: 0.80 to 3.42, P=0.200). The recurrence-free survival (RFS) of MVI group was lower than that of the control group, and the postoperative cumulative survival rate was also lower before the inverse probability weighted correction of the tendency score. The RFS in MVI group was lower than that in control group after the tendency score was adjusted by inverse probability weighting ( HR=2.62, 95% CI: 1.61 to 4.27, P<0.001). There was no significant difference in the cumulative survival between the MVI and control group ( HR=2.09, 95% CI: 0.89 to 4.93, P=0.050). Conclusion:MVI is associated with early postoperative recurrence in patients with HCC, and the early recurrence rate after anatomical hepatectomy is lower than that after non-anatomical hepatectomy.

Objective:To investigate the effect of B7-H3 gene on the biological function of fibr-oblastlike synoviocytes (FLS) in osteoarthritis (OA).Methods:Synovial tissue of five cases of OA and synovial tissue of 4 normal knee were obtained, and the primary cell lines were isolated and cultured. The expression of B7-H3 in OA synovial tissue and primary OA-FLS were studied by immunohi-stochemistry, real time-poly merase chain reaction (PCR) and FACS. According to sites 996 and 1041 of B7-H3, corresponding siRNA was designed and the expression of B7-H3 in FLS was silenced and down-regulated. The inhibition of B7-H3 and its protein in target cells was determined by Western blot and FACS. The migration and invasion ability of B7-H3 in target cells were analyzed by scratch assay and Transwell assay. CCK8 assay was used to detect cell proliferation ability, and CBA assay was used to detect cytokines and chemokines in cell culture supernatant. GraphPad Prism 8.0 software was used to analyze the experimental data. The normal distribution data was expressed as mean±standard deviation ( Mean± SD). The comparison between data was performed by T test, and P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:The abnormally high expression of B7-H3 in fibro-blast-like synoviocytes of OA was detected. Compared with siNC, si996 and si1041 inhibited the expression of B7-H3 in OA-FLS. In the Transwell migration experiment, the mean cells number of random view in the siNC group, the si996 group, and the si1041 group indicating decreased migration ability of OA-FLS [siNC vs si996 (100.3±3.7) /view vs (48.7±1.2) /view, t=13.24, P<0.001; siNC vs si1041 (100.3±3.7) /view vs (59.7±1.9) /view, t=9.80, P<0.001). In the Transwell invasion experiment, the mean cells number of random view in the siNC group, in the si996 group, and in the si1041 group indicating decreased invasion ability of OA-FLS [siNC vs si996 (127.3±5.6) /view vs (39.7±3.3) /view, t=13.49, P<0.001; siNC vs si1041 (127.3±5.6) /view vs (57.3±1.9) /view, t=11.85, P<0.001]. The secretion of IL-6 [siNC vs si996 (248±21) pg/ml vs (111±12) pg/ml, t=24.08, P=0.002; siNC vs si1041 (248±21) pg/ml vs (46±5) pg/ml, t=13.21, P=0.006], IL-8 [siNC vs si996 (118.1±15.6) pg/ml vs (47.1±5.4) pg/ml, t=6.68, P=0.022; siNC vs si1041 (118.1±15.6) pg/ml vs (10.0±1.3) pg/ml, t=13.08, P=0.006], CXCL8 [siNC vs si996 (178.8±6.4) ng/ml vs (83.2±2.7) ng/ml, t=13.77, P=0.005; siNC vs si1041 (178.8±6.4) ng/ml vs (93.5±2.8) ng/ml, t=12.23, P=0.007] and CCL2 [siNC vs si996 [(184.1±5.1) ng/ml vs (109.4±5.9) ng/ml, t=9.57, P=0.011; siNC vs si1041 (184.1±5.1) ng/ml vs (97.1±1.5) ng/ml, t=16.39, P=0.004] was decreased . Conclusion:B7-H3 may regulate the migration, invasion, cytokine secretion and other biological functions of OA-FLS, providing clues for further study of B7-H3's involvement in the pathogenesis of OA.

Objective:To explore the choice of skin flap design and clinical effects of skin soft tissue expansion in the treatment of body surface lesions.Methods:From January 2018 to December 2020, the Department of Plastic Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of the Air Force Medical University performed skin and soft tissue expansion in 148 patients with scars and nevus, including 83 males and 65 females. The age ranged from 4 to 52 years. According to the distance of the donor area, the expanded flap was divided into adjacent local flap and distal pedicled axial flap. An appropriate volume expander was embedded under the donor area flap. The expander was expanded regularly for 8-24 weeks, and the displacement of expander and other complications were avoided.Results:A total of 212 dilators were implanted in 148 patients, and the damaged area was completely repaired after 1 or 2 dilation operations. The expanded flaps were effectively used. The flap transfer was consistent with the first-stage design, with fewer auxiliary incisions, hidden and inconspicuous scars, and maximum repaired area was 22 cm×18 cm; the incidence of dilator complications (16 cases with 21 dilators) was 9.90%.Conclusions:Paying attention to the reasonable design and selection of flap in stage Ⅰ operation can make effective use of expanded flap in stage Ⅱ operation, fully repair body surface lesions, reduce auxiliary incision and achieve the best repair effect.

Objective:To explore the clinical effect of pre-expanded flap on the treatment of perioral scar.Methods:The clinical data on the treatment of perioral scar with pre-expanded flap in the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University from March 2009 to July 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. The pre-expanded flap composed of the pre-expanded local flap, the pre-expanded deltopectoral flap, the pre-expanded submental flap, and the pre-expanded frontal branch flap of the superficial temporal artery. Generally, the surgical procedure was divided into three stages, which included stage one: skin soft tissue expander implantation; stage two: pre-expanded flap design and transfer; stage three: delay of pre-expanded skin flap, and the amputation of the pedicle. The pre-expanded local flap did not require cutting off the pedicle. Selective laser hair removal was applied to pre-expanded frontal branch flap of superficial temporal artery to repair the scar. The blood circulation and the survival of the metastatic flap were observed after the operation. The appearance and function of the donor and recipient areas were followed up.Results:A total of 47 patients aged between 7 to 50 years old comprising 21 males and 26 females with perioral scars were enrolled, with an average age of 20 years old. Eight cases were treated with pre-expanded local flap. Twenty five cases were treated with pre-expanded deltopectoral flap, 3 cases were treated with pre-expanded deltopectoral flap combined with a pre-expanded local skin flap, 5 cases were treated with pre-expanded submental flap, 6 cases were treated with pre-expanded frontal branch flap of the superficial temporal artery. Postoperative follow-up time ranged from 3 to 108 months (mean 57 months). In all the patients, the perioral scars were repaired, with significant alleviation in mouth opening limitation. The color and texture of the transferred flap were similar to the surrounding skin, and the appearance was satisfactory.Conclusions:The pre-expanded flap is a good approach for the treatment of perioral scar.

【Objective】 To estimate the seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 infection among blood donors during the COVID-19 outbreak, in order to provide reference for formulating coping strategies. 【Methods】 A total of 3 623 samples of healthy blood donors in Xi′an from January 1 to June 14, 2020 were collected and tested by chemiluminescence microparticle immunoassays(CMIA). The correlation between the number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Xi′an and the monthly prevalence trend of SARS-CoV-2 antibody in Xi′an was also studied. 【Results】 Among the 3 623 blood donors, 3 were reactive by CMIA, with the seroprevalence rate of SARS-CoV-2 at 0.083%(95%CI: 0.00, 0.18). The earliest yielding of SARS-CoV-2 in Xi′an was in February 4, 2020. 【Conclusion】 The SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence rate in Xi′an is low, which is in line with the local prevalence status. It is suggested that serological detection of blood donors is a way to monitor the prevalence of COVID-19.
