Objective:To investigate the effect and safety of the double-cross dressing technique for composite rhytidectomy.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on a total of 121 patients with face and neck ageing, who were admitted to the Facial and Neck Plastic Surgery Center, the Plastic Surgery Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from June 2020 to May 2023, all female with the age ranged 34-72 years old. All the patients underwent a full facial and neck composite rhytidectomy. Immediately after surgery, a double-cross bandaging was applied. The cotton pad was nested on the outer auricle, so that the front of the ear and the back of the ear were the first cross. This cross aimed to accurately pressurized the temporal, buccal region and postauricle flap. The second cross occurred at the radix. It secured composite tissue flap at the zygomatic arch and the buccal fat pad zone. Patient′s external auricle was not compressed after bandaging. The healing and the occurrence of complications were observed.Results:All the patients were satisfied with the comfort of the bandaging, the satisfied rate was 100% (121/121). All the patients had different degrees of periocular and perioral swelling 72 hours after surgery. Conjunctival edema and xanthochromia occurred in 30 patients, and oral mucosal congestion occurred in 25 patients, all of which were spontaneously resolved 2-4 weeks after surgery. Postoperative nursing was easily managed. There were no events such as dressing loosening, blocked draining tubes, and difficulty in replacing tubes. All the patients were followed up for 3-12 months after surgery, the flap in the postauricular area of all patients healed well, and there were no adverse complications such as wound infection, necrosis of the flap in the operative area, and delayed healing of the incision.Conclusion:The double-cross bandaging technique achieves the comfort bandaging and good protection of the face, which is safe and effective.

Objective: To investigate the effects of poor sitting postures on muscle fatigue in schoolage children, so as to provide evidence for developing healthy sitting guidelines. Methods: In May 2024,30 children aged 6-12 were recruited from Changping District in Beijing. A combination of surface electromyography (sEMG) and psychophysical scales were used to assess muscle fatigue at varying deviation angles under four sitting postures (forward head tilt, lateral head tilt, uneven shoulder height, and forward trunk inclination). Oneway ANOVA and LSD post hoc multiple comparisons were employed to analyze the differences in electromyographic (EMG) data among various deviation angles under different sitting postures. Results: The mean integrated electromyography (IEMG) of representative muscles showed statistically significant differences (P<0.05) across deviation angles in all postures, with muscle fatigue worsening as deviation angles increased. Forward head tilt:significant IEMG differences were observed in the left/right sternocleidomastoid and left/right splenius capitis (F=13.74, 13.21, 5.43, 6.11,P<0.05). Lateral head tilt:significant differences were found in the right sternocleidomastoid muscle (SCM), right splenius capitis, and left trapezius (F=5.13, 4.73, 12.13, P<0.05). Uneven shoulder height:significant differences occurred in the right SCM, bilateral splenius capitis, and left trapezius (F=12.46, 12.56, 32.49, 5.98, P<0.05).Forward trunk inclination, significant differences were identified in the left/right SCM, left/right splenius capitis, and left/right lumbar muscles (F=4.45, 9.84, 14.49, 26.44, 8.02, 18.34, P<0.01). Temporal analysis revealed varying fatigue onset times across postures:severe fatigue occurred earlier in lateral head tilt and forward trunk inclination, while excessive forward head tilt, lateral head tilt, and uneven shoulder postures predominantly induced mild to moderate fatigue. Conclusions Under different sitting postures, both the integrated IEMG of relevant muscles and subjective evaluations in schoolaged children increase with greater postural deviattion. Head tilt and trunkleaning postures require particular intervention, with emphasis on unevenshoulder alignment and trunk inclination control.

Objective:To investigate the effect of DExH-box helicase 9(DHX9)O-linked N-acetylglucosamine(O-GlcNAc)modifi-cation(O-GlcNAcylation)on the proliferation of hepatitis B virus(HBV)-associated hepatoma cells.Methods:The pAdTrack-TO4-DHX9-3Flag recombinant adenovirus plasmid was constructed by molecular cloning and transfected into HEK293 cells for packaging and amplification of the recombinant adenovirus AdDHX9.The interaction between DHX9 and O-GlcNAc transferase(OGT)was con-firmed using co-immunoprecipitation.The co-localization between DHX9 and OGT was measured by immunofluorescence.The level of DHX9 O-GlcNAcylation was determined using succinylated wheat germ agglutinin(sWGA)and glycosylated immunoprecipitation(IP).The effect of DHX9 O-GlcNAcylation on the proliferation of HBV-associated hepatoma cells was assessed using the colony-forming assay and cell growth curves.Results:The recombinant adenovirus AdDHX9 was successfully obtained,and DHX9 expression was confirmed by Western blot.DHX9 interacted with OGT,and the two proteins were co-localized on the nucleus.The sWGA and gly-cosylated IP experiments showed that DHX9 underwent O-GlcNAcylation,which was further enhanced by HBV infection.The colony-forming assay demonstrated that the number of cell clones was increased in the AdDHX9 group(386.667±15.630)compared with the AdGFP control group(142.667±7.572,P<0.001).Moreover,cell growth curves demonstrated that the overall cell growth rate was en-hanced in the AdDHX9 group(22.860±0.770)compared with the AdGFP control group(13.670±0.517,P<0.001).Conclusion:HBV infection promotes DHX9 O-GlcNAcylation,which enhances the proliferation of HBV-associated hepatoma cells.

Tumor cells use glycolysis to provide material and energy under hypoxic conditions to meet the energy requirements for rapid growth and proliferation， namely the Warburg effect. Even under aerobic conditions， tumor cells mainly rely on glycolysis to provide energy. Therefore， glucose transporter protein 1（GLUT1）， which is involved in the process of glucose metabolism， plays an important role in tumorigenesis， development and drug resistance， and is considered to be one of the important targets in the treatment of malignant tumors. In recent years， research on tumor glucose metabolism has gradually become a hot spot. It has been shown that various factors are involved in the regulation of tumor energy metabolism， among which the role of GLUT1 is the most critical. In this paper， the authors reviewed the latest research progress of GLUT1-targeted traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） active ingredient nano-delivery system in tumor therapy， aiming to reveal the feasibility and effectiveness of this system in the delivery of chemotherapeutic drugs. The GLUT1-targeted TCM active ingredient nano-delivery system can overcome the bottleneck of the traditional targeting strategy as well as the high-permeability long retention（EPR） effect. In summary， the authors believe that the GLUT1-targeted TCM active ingredient nano-delivery system provides a new strategy for targeted treatment of tumors and has a broad application prospect in tumor prevention and treatment.

Objective:To investigate the safety and therapeutic effect of split liver transplantation (SLT) in clinical application.Methods:This is a retrospective case-series study. The clinical data of 203 consecutive SLT, 79 living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) and 1 298 whole liver transplantation (WLT) performed at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from July 2014 to July 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Two hundred and three SLT liver grafts were obtained from 109 donors. One hundred and twenty-seven grafts were generated by in vitro splitting and 76 grafts were generated by in vivo splitting. There were 90 adult recipients and 113 pediatric recipients. According to time, SLT patients were divided into two groups: the early SLT group (40 cases, from July 2014 to December 2017) and the mature SLT technology group (163 cases, from January 2018 to July 2023). The survival of each group was analyzed and the main factors affecting the survival rate of SLT were analyzed. The Kaplan-Meier method and Log-rank test were used for survival analysis.Results:The cumulative survival rates at 1-, 3-, and 5-year were 74.58%, 71.47%, and 71.47% in the early SLT group, and 88.03%, 87.23%, and 87.23% in the mature SLT group, respectively. Survival rates in the mature SLT group were significantly higher than those in the early SLT group ( χ2=5.560, P=0.018). The cumulative survival rates at 1-, 3- and 5-year were 93.41%, 93.41%, 89.95% in the LDLT group and 87.38%, 81.98%, 77.04% in the WLT group, respectively. There was no significant difference among the mature SLT group, the LDLT group and the WLT group ( χ2=4.016, P=0.134). Abdominal hemorrhage, infection, primary liver graft nonfunction,and portal vein thrombosis were the main causes of early postoperative death. Conclusion:SLT can achieve results comparable to those of WLT and LDLT in mature technology liver transplant centers, but it needs to go through a certain time learning curve.
