Spinal cord injury is a severe central nervous system injury that may result in partial or complete loss of sensory and motor function. Its treatment methods include laminotomy decompression, high-dose intravenous injection of methylprednisolone, etc., but their efficacy is not satisfactory. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are promising in treating spinal cord injury due to their plasticity, low immunogenicity, strong paracrine ability and multi-directional differentiation ability, but problems still exist such as low survival rate, low directional migration ability and unpredictable cell differentiation after transplantation. The strategies for preconditioning MSCs in vitro to enhance their efficacy through gene overexpression, stimulation by physicochemical factors, three-dimensional culture, and cell pre-differentiation have been applied in several studies upon repair of spinal cord injury, but there is no complete summary at present. The authors reviewed these preconditioning strategies for MSCs and the related research progress in spinal cord injury repair so as to provide a reference for the basic research and clinical treatment.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of a modified continuous penetrating-suture pancreaticojejunostomy (PPJ), also known as a continuous PPJ with a U-shaped reinforcement of pancreatic section (U-PPJ), in patients with high risk of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF).Methods:Clinical data of 33 patients with pancreatic tumors undergoing pancreatic surgery in the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College from August 2017 to December 2023 were collected, including 22 males and 11 females, aged (64.9±8.6) years old. According to the fashion of pancreaticojejunostomy, patients were divided into two groups: U-PPJ group ( n=11) and PPJ group ( n=22). The general data, incidence of CR-POPF, abdominal bleeding and other clinicopathological data were collected. Results:All patients underwent pancreatic surgery successfully and were discharged from the hospital uneventfully. Intraoperative blood loss in U-PPJ group was 200.00 (100.0, 200.0) ml, postoperative hospitalization was 13.0 (11.0, 18.0) d, and the drain removal time was 17.0 (12.0, 21.0) d, and no CR-POPF occurred. The intraoperative blood loss, postoperative hospitalization days, drain removal time, and incidence of postoperative biochemical leakage were comparable between the groups (all P>0.05). The incidence of CR-POPF in U-PPJ group was lower than that in PPJ group [0 vs. 22.7% (5/22), P<0.05]. Conclusion:U-PPJ is safe and effective in patients with pancreatic tumors and might reduce the incidence of CR-POPF.

Objective:To explore the impact of unidentified injectable fillers on the soft tissue of nasal dorsum and rhinoplasty.Methods:The Plastic Surgery Information System of Xinhua Hospital Affiliated with Dalian University was utilized to conduct an analysis of 62 rhinoplasty patients between 2018 and 2019. Specifically, this included 28 patients with an unidentified history of injectable filler rhinoplasty, encompassing 1 male and 27 females with ages ranging from 19 to 53 years and a mean age of 28.8 years. Additionally, 34 patients underwent primary rhinoplasty, all of whom were female with ages ranging from 19 to 46 years and a mean age of 26.8 years. This study examined the effects of unidentified injectable fillers on the soft tissue of the nasal dorsum by analyzing the excised nasal dorsum under a microscope. Subsequently, statistical methods were performed to assess differences in gender, age, preoperative tip protrusion/nose length, postoperative tip protrusion/nose length, dorsal augmentation modality, and satisfaction, and to investigate the effect of unidentified injectables on the rate of dissatisfaction after rhinoplasty.Results:The histopathological analysis of unidentified injectable fillers removed from the nasal dorsum revealed the presence of mainly gel and granular fillers. The gel fillers, characterized by its pink jelly-like texture, contained unidentified injectable fillers, colorless glue, and were observed to flow out upon cutting. The granular filler, on the other hand, appeared as tough, irregularly shaped tissue similar to caviar. Additionally, evidence of muscle tissue in 5 pathologic sections indicated that the unidentified injectable fillers were injected into or near the dorsal nasal muscles, leading to varying degrees of muscle injuries upon excision. A comparison of 28 rhinoplasty patients with unidentified injectable fillers for nasal dorsal augmentation and 34 patients with primary rhinoplasty showed that 11 females in the former group and 4 females in the latter group were dissatisfied with the results. Statistical analysis demonstrated no significant differences between the two groups in terms of gender ( P=0.452), age ( P=0.219), preoperative tip projection/nasal length ( P=0.681), postoperative tip projection/nasal length ( P=0.105), and nasal dorsum augmentation methods ( P=0.413). However, the initial rhinoplasty group had a lower dissatisfactory rate (4 cases, 11.76%) and the unidentified injectables group had a higher dissatisfactory rate (11 cases, 39.29%), which was statistically significant between the two groups (χ 2=6.341, P=0.012). Conclusions:The presence of unidentified nasal injectable fillers can significantly decrease postoperative satisfactory rates, increase the incidence of dissatisfaction, and have adverse effects on the soft tissues of the nasal dorsum and the overall outcome of the rhinoplasty procedure.

Objective To investigate the vaccination status and vaccination willingness of novel coronavirus in HIV/AIDS population in Yunnan.Methods From October 2021 to June 2022,a questionnaire survey was conducted among 2180 HIV/AIDS patients in Kunming,Qujing,Yuxi,Zhaotong,Puer,Baoshan,Lincang,Honghe,Wenshan,Xishuangbanna,Dali,Dehong and Nujiang prefectures.The questionnaire included age,sex,education,nationality,education level,vaccination,adverse reactions within 7 days after the vaccination,safety of COVID-19 vaccine,awareness of effectiveness,vaccination willingness and so on.Results Among the subjects,2109 completed 3 injections,accounting for 96.74%,and 71 were not vaccinated,accounting for 3.26% .Within 7 days of inoculation,local adverse reactions occurred in 116 cases,accounting for 5.50%,and systemic adverse reactions occurred in 56 cases,accounting for 2.66% .Injection site pain,fatigue and muscle pain accounted for the highest proportion of adverse symptoms in different sex,age and the Han nationality,while the proportion of minority adverse reactions was very low,and there was no difference among the different sex and age(P>0.05).The main reasons for the reluctance of HIV/AIDS population to be vaccinated were(recommended by doctors)that HIV/AIDS patients could not be vaccinated(67.61%)and may have serious adverse reactions after the vaccination(19.72%).The factors affecting the vaccination were found by logistic regression analysis,whether they were worried about infecting novel coronavirus(OR = 0.121,95% CI = 0.083～0.640,P<0.001)and how much they knew about COVID-19 vaccine(OR = 28.932,95% CI = 15.469～54.115,P<0.001),safety of vaccination(OR = 13.953,95% CI = 4.819～40.404,P<0.001)and belief in the preventive effect of vaccine(OR = 14.017,95% CI = 4.752～41.348,P<0.001)were significant factors affecting vaccination.Among the 13 prefectures and cities,Dehong(20),Zhaotong(21)and Lincang(14)had the largest number of unvaccinated people.Conclusion After the mass vaccination,the rate of adverse reaction in HIV/AIDS population is low,the symptoms are mild,the correct and scientific advice and guidance from doctors and the full understanding of the harmfulness of the disease,the safety,prevention and effectiveness of the vaccine are the key to complete vaccination and put an end to vaccine hesitancy.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors of clinically-relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) and penetrating pancreaticojejunostomy (PPJ).Methods:The clinical data of 108 patients who underwent PD and PPJ in the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College from January 2017 to October 2022 were analyzed retrospectively, including 65 males and 43 females, aged 65.5 (54.2, 72.0) years. The incidences of POPF, biliary fistula, abdominal bleeding and other related complications were reviewed. The related factors of CR-POPF were analyzed by univariate analysis, and the statistically significant factors were included in multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results:A total of 108 patients were successfully treated with PD, including laparoscopic PD in 76 cases (70.4%) and open PD in 32 cases (29.6%). PPJ was performed in PD, including the continuous fashion in 39 cases (36.1%), intermittent fashion in 49 cases (45.4%) and modified continuous fashion in 20 cases (18.5%). The operation time was 390.0 (314.0, 480.0) min, the intraoperative blood loss was 200.0 (100.0, 384.0) ml, the postoperative hospital stay was 12.0 (10.0, 15.0) d, and the incidence of POPF (grade B + C) was 11.1% (12/108). Body mass index, pancreatic CT value and pancreatic duct size were the significant factors of CR-POPF (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age ( OR=0.895, 95% CI: 0.822-0.975), pancreatic CT value ( OR=0.812, 95% CI: 0.698-0.946) and pancreatic duct size ( OR=0.457, 95% CI: 0.220-0.952) were risk factors of CR-POPF after PPJ (all P<0.05). Conclusion:PPJ is a safe method of pancreaticoenterostomy, and CR-POPF may be related to younger patients, lower pancreatic CT value and the smaller pancreatic duct size.
