Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of endoscopic-assisted dual-plane augmentation mammoplasty via abdominoplasty incision.Methods:The clinical data of patients who underwent concurrent abdominoplasty and endoscopic breast augmentation utilizing a single incision at Xi’an International Medical Center Hospital from August 2023 to February 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. Through a lower abdominal incision, a 4 cm-wide subcutaneous tunnel was endoscopically dissected in a superolateral direction from the lateral aspect of the xiphoid region, traversing the abdominal wall flap dissection area. Initially, the medial-inferior origin of the pectoralis major muscle was exposed and excised. Subsequently, the posterior space of the pectoralis major muscle was dissected to create the prosthesis space, and the rib origin of the pectoralis major muscle was severed 1 cm above the inframammary fold to establish a type Ⅰ dual-plane configuration. Depending on the patients’ breast morphology, the glandular tissue could be dissected superiorly from the surface of the pectoralis major muscle to form a type Ⅱ or type Ⅲ dual-plane. The prosthesis was then implanted, and its position was adjusted accordingly. After the drainage was placed, the remaining operation of abdominoplasty was continued. Patients’ basic information, implant volume, postoperative extubation time, and postoperative complications were recorded. A Likert scale of five points was used to evaluate preoperative and postoperative breast satisfaction [ranges from 1 to 5 points, 1 = very dissatisfied, 2 = dissatisfied, 3 = average, 4 = satisfied, 5 = very satisfied, respectively, satisfaction rate calculated as: ( "very satisfied" + "satisfied" )cases/total cases×100%]. SPSS 25.0 statistical software was used for statistical analysis. Measurement data in accordance with normal distribution were expressed as Mean±SD, and satisfaction scores not in accordance with normal distribution were expressed as M( Q1, Q3), compared by Wilcoxon rank sum test before and after operation. The count data were expressed by cases (%). Results:A cohort of 25 patients were included in the study, with a mean age of (29.8±2.9) years and a mean body mass index (BMI) of (20.8±1.7) kg/m 2. The median volume of the implanted prosthesis was (290.4±40.8) ml (range: 250-410 ml), and the mean extubation time was (3.1±0.9) d (range: 2-6 d). The mean follow-up duration was (270.0±52.4) d (range: 188-356 d). All patients demonstrated full, symmetrical, and natural breast contours. No significant complications, such as infection, hematoma, abnormal breast morphology, implant displacement, or exposure, were observed. The patient satisfaction scores significantly improved from preoperative median 1 (1, 2) to postoperative median 5 (4, 5), and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-4.44, P<0.001). Patient satisfaction rate increased significantly from 12% (3/25) to 100% (25/25). Conclusion:Endoscopic-assisted dual-plane augmentation mammoplasty via abdominoplasty incision is a straightforward, feasible, safe, and effective procedure that eliminates breast scarring. Postoperative outcomes indicate an absence of serious complications, and patient satisfaction rates are high.

Objective:To evaluate the effects and underlying mechanisms of metabolites derived from the kidney-reinforcing, blood circulation-activating, and collateral dredging decoction on the proliferation of multiple myeloma (MM) KM3 cells.Methods:MM KM3 cells in the logarithmic growth phase were treated with 3%, 6%, 9%, or 12% metabolites of kidney-reinforcing, blood circulation-activating, and collateral dredging decoction. Cell viability was assessed using the CCK-8 assay. Apoptosis and necrosis were evaluated using flow cytometry and TUNEL staining. Mitochondrial and cellular ultrastructural changes were examined using transmission electron microscopy. mRNA and protein expression levels of dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1), mitochondrial fission protein 1 (Fis1), mitochondrial fission factor (MFF), PTEN-induced kinase 1 (Pink1), and E3 ubiquitin ligase (Parkin) were determined through quantitative real-time PCR and western blotting. High-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) combined with network pharmacology, was utilized for reverse verification of the pharmacodynamic mechanisms and therapeutic targets underlying the anti-MM activity of this decoction.Results:The metabolites of the kidney-reinforcing, blood circulation-activating, and collateral dredging decoction inhibited KM3 cell proliferation and induced apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner. Transmission electron microscopy revealed increased mitochondrial fission and autophagic structures, with effects intensifying at higher metabolite concentrations. mRNA and protein expression of Drp1, Fis1, MFF, Pink1, and Parkin were significantly upregulated in treatment groups compared to controls ( P<0.05), with the most pronounced effects observed in the 12% metabolite group ( P<0.01). HPLC-MS/MS identified 121 bioactive compounds in BHTF, which shared 474 overlapping targets with MM. Enrichment analysis suggested that BHTF exerts antitumor effects primarily through apigenin, palmatine, and other key components by modulating TNF, NF-κB, and mitophagy pathways. Conclusion:The kidney-reinforcing and blood circulation-activating and collateral dredging decoction suppresses the proliferation of MM KM3 cells, potentially through mechanisms involving the regulation of mitochondrial dynamics and induction of autophagy.

OBJECTIVES: To study the epidemiological characteristics of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection in hospitalized children with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in Hebei Province. METHODS: Hospitalized children with CAP who tested positive for RSV and were admitted to Hebei Children's Hospital from various cities and counties across Hebei Province between January 2019 and December 2023 were included in the study. Clinical data were collected and analyzed to assess epidemiological characteristics. RESULTS: The clinical data of 43 978 children with CAP were collected, with an overall RSV detection rate of 25.98%. The detection rate was higher during the implementation of non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) (30.60%) than in the non-NPIs period. Winter and spring were the primary epidemic seasons for RSV each year except in 2022. The detection rate in males (26.62%) was higher than in females (25.06%) (P<0.001). The highest detection rate (59.18%) was found in infants aged 29 days to <1 year. Single RSV infection was more common, with rhinovirus being the most frequent co-infection. CONCLUSIONS The overall RSV detection rate in Hebei Province is influenced by NPIs, being higher during their implementation. RSV predominantly circulates in winter and spring. The detection rate of RSV is higher in males and infants. RSV infection is primarily single, most often co-occurring with rhinovirus.
