Objective:To investigate the application value of laparoscopic-assisted total liver transplantation.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinical data of 9 pairs of donors and recipients who underwent laparoscopic-assisted total liver transplanta-tion in People′s Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from January to April 2024 were collected. Of the donors, there were 8 males and 1 female, aged (39±18)years and with body mass index (BMI) of (20±4)kg/m 2. Of the recipients, there were 7 males and 2 females, aged (41±13)years and with BMI of (24±4)kg/m 2. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD. Count data were described as absolute numbers. Results:(1) Surgical conditions. Of the 9 recipients, 7 recipients underwent laparoscopic-assisted total liver transplantation successfully, 1 recipient with severe portal hypertension converted to open surgery with reverse L-shaped incision due to the hemorrhage during the dissection of the first hepatic portal after completing liver mobilization under laparoscopy, and 1 recipient underwent trans-umbilical extension incision through the middle of the epigastric region due to the limited space for operation in the implantation of the donor liver. The total operation time for 7 recipients who successfully underwent laparoscopic-assisted total liver transplantation was (648±31)minutes, with a time of anhepatic phase of (57±5)minutes, the volume of intraoperative blood loss of (1 322±627)mL, the donor liver mass of (1 195±232)g, and the ratio of donor liver mass to recipient body mass of 1.86%±0.42%. The operation time for laparoscopic liver dissection and porta hepatis dissection in 8 recipients during surgery was (212±35)minutes. (2) Postoperative conditions. All 9 recipients recovered smoothly after surgery, without any vascular or biliary related complications, and the surgical incision recovered well. The duration of postoperative hospital stay of 7 recipients who successfully underwent laparoscopic-assisted total liver transplantation was (14.2±2.0)days. (3) Follow-up. All 9 recipients were followed up for 3 months after surgery. During the follow-up period, there was no vascular or bile duct related complication.Conclusion:Laparoscopic-assisted total liver transplantation can be applied to recipients who meet surgical conditions and achieve good short-term clinical efficacy.

Objective:To understand the situation of arboviruses carried by mosquito specimens in Daozhen county, Guizhou province.Methods:In July 2023, mosquito specimens were collected in Daozhen county, Guizhou province, using photocatalytic mosquito trap method. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) technology was used to detect the types of viruses carried by mosquitoes, and phylogenetic trees were constructed using the neighbor-joining method to analyze the phylogenetic position of the detected viruses.Results:A total of 5 313 mosquito specimens belonging to 2 genera and 2 species were collected in Daozhen county, Guizhou province, including 3 953 Culex tritaeniorhynchus, 1 355 Armigeres subalbatus, and 5 other mosquito species. The specimens were divided into 54 batches according to their species for grinding, nucleic acid extraction, and testing. Among them, 6 batches of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus specimens tested positive for flavivirus genus using universal primers, and further identification revealed that 5 batches were positive for Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) nucleic acid, and 1 batch was positive for Tembusu virus (TMUV) nucleic acid. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the detected JEV strains were all genotype I and fell within the same evolutionary branch; the detected TMUV was located on the third branch of the evolutionary tree, with the main host source of the strains on this branch being mosquitoes. Conclusions:In the mosquito specimens collected in Daozhen county, Guizhou province in 2023, genotype I JEV and TMUV were detected, with TMUV being detected for the first time in mosquitoes in Guizhou province. It is essential to enhance the surveillance of JEV and TMUV to mitigate the potential public health risks they pose.
