OBJECTIVE To summarize the follow-up,survival time and treatment of a patients who received heart transplantation from a hepatitis B virus(HBV)-positive donor so as to raise the perception and awareness of pre-vention of hepatitis B after receiving the heart transplantation from a HBV-positive donor and extend the survival time of the patient.METHODS A patient who had new onset of hepatitis B after receiving heart transplantation from a HBV-positive donor and was treated in infectious diseases department of Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan Uni-versity in Mar.2021 was enrolled in the study.The clinical data,including the main clinical symptoms,medication and treatment history,individual history,major positive signs and treatment outcomes,were retrospectively ana-lyzed.The process of diagnosis and treatment was analyzed and was further discussed in combination with litera-ture search.RESULTS The patient was treated with immunosuppression and anti-HBV therapy for 11 months after the heart transplantation,and the patient had anorexia,fatigue,diarrhea,and skin icteric sclera in the current month of withdrawal of drug therapy.The patient was admitted to the hospital and was finally diagnosed with a-cute hepatic failure,acute hepatitis B,acute renal failure,septic shock,heart transplantation and gastrointestinal hemorrhage.The patient died due to ineffective treatment.CONCLUSIONS The patient with new onset of HBV in-fection who receives organ transplantation and takes a long-term use of immunosuppressors may have severe con-sequences such as new onset of hepatitis B and acute hepatic failure.It is necessary to attach great importance to and take comprehensive measures for the prevention of new onset HBV infection in the donor after the organ transplantation,stick to the long-term reexamination of HBV infection-related indexes and maintain the antiviral therapy as long as possible(at least 1 year),which may facilitate the protection of the patient from HBV infec-tion-related adverse events and help to extend the survival time of the patient after the organ transplantation.

Aim To establish and evaluate an alternative meth-od for detecting skin sensitization of cosmetics based on local lymph node assay using bromodeoxyuridine(BrdU)with flow cytometry(FCM).Methods(1)25％hexyl cinnamic alde-hyde(HCA)was chosen as a positive control with an acetone:olive oil(4∶1,V/V,AOO)mixture as a vehicle control for the experiment.The dorsal sides of both ears of mice were treated with test solutions on day 1,day 2,and day 3.Brdu solution was injected inter-peritoneally on day 5.On day 6,the bilateral ears and mandibular lymph nodes were excised,and the number of Brdu positive cells was measured by flow cytometry.The stim-ulation index(SI)was calculated to identify whether it was ≥3,in order to establish the method of LLNA:Brdu-FCM.(2)BrdU-FCM test was conducted using a blind method with the fif-teen reference substances listed in OECD TG429 whose skin sensitization potentials were known.The test substances were dissolved in AOO,N,N-dimethylformamide(DMF)or dimeth-yl sulfoxide(DMSO)at three different concentrations.Tests were performed the same as above.SI and EC2.7 were calculat-ed to evaluate whether the test substance was categorized as a skin sensitizer.The reliability and accuracy of the method were validated by comparing the classification of test substances with that in OECD TG429.Results The SI for 25％HCA was 3.9,showing positive in the skin sensitization test.It demonstrated that the LLNA:Brdu-FCM test method was properly implemen-ted.Nine test substances(2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene,4-pheny-lenediamine,cobalt chloride,2-mercaptobenzothiazole,hexyl-cinnamaldehyde,eugenol,phenyl benzoate,cinnamic alcohol,imidazolidinyl urea)were positive,and six test substances(methyl methacrylate,chlorobenzene,isopropanol,lactic acid,methyl salicylate,salicylic acid)were negative.The method was evaluated with sensitivity of 90％,specificity of 100％,positive prediction rate of 100％,negative prediction rate of 83％,false positive rate of 0％,false negative rate of 17％and accuracy of 93％.The LLNA:BrdU-FCM assay could correctly categorize the test substances that were skin sensitizers or non-sensitizers.Conclusion The LLNA:BrdU-FCM assay appears to be a relia-ble predictor of skin sensitization protential of chemicals,and it is expected to an alternative method for identifying skin sensitization as a supplementary in safety evaluation of cosmetic ingredient.

BACKGROUND:Adolescent lumbar disc herniation is the main cause of low back pain in adolescents. At present,most of them are treated by conservativetreatment. When long-term non-surgical treatment attempts,surgery may be necessary to prevent further injury when the patient's symptoms are notsufficiently relieved or when the patient has symptoms of single nerve paralysis or compression of the cauda equina,it is very important to choose a suitable interbody fusion device for the surgical treatment of the patients.OBJECTIVE:To explore the effects of minimally invasive interbody fusion with different heights on lumbar biomechanics in patients with adolescent lumbar disc herniation.METHODS:CT scans of a 17-year-old male patient with adolescent lumbar disc herniation (L4-5 segment herniation) were collected. After the three-dimensional reconstruction of MIMICS,the interbody fusion device equal to and 3 mm higher than the intervertebral space was selected for analysis,so two expandablemixed material interbody fusion devices were designed and reconstructed. Fusion device L:11 mm high front,9 mm high posterior,9 mm wide,28 mmlong,and fusion device H:14 mm high front,11 mm high posterior,11 mm wide,28 mm long and the lumbar fusion device was modeled. The fusion deviceand lumbar spine model were optimized,inversely modeled,and then imported into ABAQUS,and finally the 3D model of lumbar fusion was obtained.The physiological activities of the human body were simulated,such as lumbar extension,forward bending,right bending,and left bending,to obtain thecorresponding stress contours. The biomechanical characteristics of the L4-5 vertebra under seven different working conditions were observed.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The maximum stress of the two kinds of fuses was in the condition of forward bending and backward extension,the stress value of H fuses was (18.27±3.80) Mpa and (15.02±3.24) Mpa;the stress value of L fuses was (9.16±0.05) Mpa and (9.17±1.83) Mpa. The stress values of the end plate of the H-fusion in the extension station were (19.11±4.03) Mpa and (16.32±3.72) Mpa respectively. The stress values of the L-fusion end plate were (9.13±0.01) Mpa and (4.92±1.01) Mpa respectively. (2) The stress of H-type fusing end plate was higher than that of L-type fusing end plate except for L-5 end plate at neutral position (P<0.05). (3) Choosing an interbody fusion device with a height of more than 3 mm in the same intervertebral space has a more stable biomechanics.

OBJECTIVE: To explore clinical efficacy of membrane-induced technique combined with gastrocnemius muscle flap transposition in treating traumatic osteomyelitis of the upper tibia. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 7 patients with traumatic osteomyelitis of the upper tibia who were treated with membrane-induced technique combined with gastrocnemius muscle flap transposition from January 2022 to December 2023. Among them, there were 4 males and 3 females; aged from 29 to 57 years old; 4 patients were treated after open fracture, 2 patients were treated after closed fracture, and 1 patient was treated after scalding; the courses of disease ranges from 2 weeks to 8 years; sinus tracts were present in all patients, and the lesion range of the tibia ranged from 5 to 9 cm. The results of deep tissue bacterial culture showed that 2 patients were negative, 3 patients were staphylococcus aureus, 1 patient was methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus, and 1 patient was pseudomonas aeruginosa and 1 patient was klebsiella pneumoniae. After debridement, the range of bone defect ranged from 8 to 12 cm, and the cortical defect accounted for approximately 30% of the circumference. The area of soft tissue defect ranged from 8.0 cm×2.0 cm to 10.0 cm×6.0 cm. At the first stage, vancomycin-loaded/meropenem/gentamicin-loaded bone cement was implanted. The gastrocnemius muscle flap was repositioned to cover the wound surface and free skin grafting was performed. After an interval of 7 to 10 weeks, the stageⅡsurgery was performed to remove bone cement. Autologous iliac bone mixed with vancomycin/gentamicin and calcium sulfate artificial bone was transplanted, and the wound was sutured. One patient retained the original internal plants, one patient removed the internal plants and replaced them with steel plate external fixation, one patient replaced the internal plants and added steel plate external fixation, and three patients were simply fixed with steel plate external fixation. One year after operation, the recovery of knee joint and ankle joint functions was evaluated by using Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) knee joint score and Kofoed ankle joint function score respectively. RESULTS: All patients had their wounds closed simultaneously with bone cement implantation and healed well. All patients were followed up for 12 to 17 months after operation, and satisfactory bone healing was achieved at 6 months after stageⅡsurgery. Twelve months after operation, all patients had good bone healing without obvious limping was observed when walking. At 12 months after operation HSS knee joint score ranged from 93 to 100 points, and Kofoed ankle function score ranged from 96 to 100 points. CONCLUSION For traumatic osteomyelitis of the upper tibia, a staged treatment plan combining membrane-induced technique and gastrocnemius flap transposition on the basis of thorough debridement could safely cover the wound surface, effectively control bone infection and achieve satisfactory bone healing, without adverse effects on limb function.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of Ilizarov ring external fixation and unilateral rail external fixation in the treatment of infected bone defects following surgery for tibial fractures.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 50 patients with infected bone defects after surgery for tibial fractures, who were admitted to the 940th Hospital of the Joint Logistics Support Force of the PLA from August 2019 to November 2021, including 37 males and 13 females, aged 19-59 years [(42.2±8.8)years]. After debridement and osteotomy, 28 patients were treated with Ilizarov ring external fixation (Ilizarov group) and 22 with unilateral rail external fixation (unilateral fixation group). All the patients in the two groups had previously undergone internal fixation with plates or Kirschner wires for tibial fracture before bone transport. Bone transport started at one week for three stages after successful infection control and osteotomy and was conducted. The following parameters were compared between the two groups: frame-wearing time and healing index after bone transport, self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) grade at 6 months after bone transport, Paley score and Association for the Study and Application of the Method of Ilizarov (ASAMI) score at the last follow-up, Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) knee score and Baird-Jackson ankle score on admission, after external fixator removal and at the last follow-up, and incidence of postoperative complications.Results:All the patients were followed up for 28-36 months [(32.5±1.6)months]. There were no significant differences in frame-wearing time or healing index between the two groups after bone transport ( P>0.05). At 6 months after bone transport, the SAS grade in the unilateral fixation group (13 patients with mild anxiety, 8 with moderate anxiety, and 1 with severe anxiety) was better than that in the Ilizarov group (6 patients with mild anxiety, 19 with moderate anxiety, 3 with severe anxiety) ( P<0.01). No significant differences were found in the Paley score or ASAMI score between the two groups at the last follow-up ( P>0.05). There were no significant differences in HSS knee score or Baird-Jackson ankle score between the two groups on admission, after external fixator removal or at the last follow-up ( P>0.05). No significant differences were observed in the incidence of pin tract infection, poor healing, infection in the bone elongation area, or re-fracture between the two groups ( P>0.05). The incidence of postoperative axial deviation was 0 in the Ilizarov group, lower than 18% in the unilateral fixation group (4/22) ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Although Ilizarov ring external fixation and unilateral rail external fixation demonstrate comparable efficacy in the treatment of infected bone defects after surgery for tibial fractures, the former provides superior mechanical stability and postoperative axial deviation correction, while the latter offers advantages in reducing psychological burden and enhancing treatment tolerance.

Gastric cancer with peritoneal metastasis (GCPM) is a common and lethal manifestation of advanced gastric cancer, with a median survival of only 5-11 months. This consensus was developed by 30 experts from Asia (China, Japan, Korea, and Singapore) using the Delphi method and the GRADE evidence grading system. A total of 29 statements were formulated, covering the diagnosis and assessment of GCPM, indications for laparoscopic exploration and NIPS (normothermic intraperitoneal and systemic treatment), treatment regimens, prevention and management of complications, criteria for conversion surgery, and postoperative intraperitoneal therapy. The consensus aims to standardize clinical practice and improve the prognosis of patients with GCPM.

Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis(AIS)is a complex three-dimensional deformity involving coronal,sagittal,and axial planes,with a prevalence that should not be overlooked.With advancements in technology and in-depth research,an increasing number of hospitals and physicians are exploring standardized diagnostic and treatment approaches for AIS.Comprehensive and in-depth understanding is required for AIS,including its etiology,screening and diagnosis,classification,assessment and examination,treatment options,exploration of current focus,and evaluation of quality of life.Such understanding ensures that the diagnostic and treatment are scientific,standardized,and timely.Based on the principles of evidence-based medicine,a consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of AIS is reached after multiple discussions among spinal surgery experts,aiming to provide reference and guidance for clinical practice.
