Objective To explore the characteristics of the cross-sectional area(CSA)of the vagus nerve in a healthy population in Qujing,Yunnan,and its correlation with demographic characteristics.Methods High-resolution nerve ultrasound examinations were conducted on the vagus nerve of 201 healthy volunteers from a hospital in Qujing,Yunnan from September 2022 to March 2023.The CSA was measured through transverse scans of the vagus nerve.The correlation of vagus nerve CSA with age,body mass index(BMI),and gender was assessed.Results The mean CSA of the bilateral VN were 1.9 mm2(right)and 1.3 mm2(left),respectively.The average CSA of the right vagus nerve was significantly greater than that of the left(P<0.001).In the high-age group(>50 years),the average CSA of the right vagus nerve was significantly higher than that of the low-age group(≤50 years)(P=0.0142).However,there was no statistically significant difference in the average CSA of the right vagus nerve between the BMI>24 kg/m2 group and the≤24 kg/m2 group(P=0.0852).The average CSA of the left vagus nerve showed no statistically significant differences across different age groups and BMI groups(P>0.05),but the average CSA of the bilateral vagus nerve in the male group was greater than that in the female group,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.05).Correlation analysis further confirmed a negative correlation between the average CSA of the right vagus nerve and age(r=-0.17,P=0.0139).Multiple linear regression models indicated that age(P=0.007)and gender(P=0.001)were independent influencing factors for the average CSA of the right vagus nerve.Conclusion In the healthy population of Qujing,Yunnan,the CSA of the right vagus nerve is significantly greater than that of the left,and males also exhibit a significantly greater CSA than females.With increasing age,the vagus nerve gradually becomes thinner.

Objective To understand the current situation of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in China,pro-vide data support and decision-making basis for formulating scientific and effective strategies for HAI prevention and control.Methods A nationwide cross-sectional survey on HAI was conducted among various types and levels of medical institutions in China according to a unified protocol of bedside surveys and case investigations.Results In 2024,a total of 5 736 medical institutions and 2 751 765 patients were surveyed.Among them,34 889 HAI cases were identified,with a prevalence rate of 1.27％.The number of HAI episodes was 38 032,and case prevalence rate was 1.38％.The prevalence rate of HAI in medical institutions in different regions of China ranged from 0.66％to 2.35％.Among medical institutions of different scales,those with a bed capacity of ≥900 had the high-est incidence of HAI,reaching 1.65％.The most common infection site was the lower respiratory tract(44.66％),followed by the urinary tract(12.94％),surgical site(9.32％),upper respiratory tract(7.02％),and bloodstream infection(5.78％).The top 3 departments with the highest HAI rates were the general intensive care unit(10.02％),department of neurosurgery(5.51％),and department(group)of hematology(5.34％).A total of 23 238 strains of HAI pathogens were detected,with 10 714 strains(46.10％)from lower respiratory tract speci-mens.The top 5 detected strains were Klebsiella pneumoniae(14.76％),Pseudomonas aeruginosa(13.33％),Escherichia coli(12.79％),Acinetobacter baumannii(9.23％),and Staphylococcus aureus(7.88％).231 944 pa-tients underwent class Ⅰ incision surgery were monitored,with 1 647 cases experienced surgical site infection,and the prevalence rate of surgical site infection was 0.71％.The number of patients who should undergo pathogen de-tection(patients receiving therapeutic and therapeutic combined prophylactic antimicrobial agents)was 715 179,while the actual number was 480 492,with a pathogen detection rate of 67.18％.425 225 patients received patho-genic detection before treatment,with a detection rate of 59.46％.Conclusion The overall HAI prevalence in Chi-na is lower,showing disparities among medical institutions of different regions and scales.Therefore,precise imple-mentation of measures is necessary for HAI prevention and control,with a focus on high-risk institutions and high-risk departments,key areas,and critical procedures.All levels of medical institutions should continuously reduce the incidence of HAI by strengthening monitoring,standardizing the use of antimicrobial agents,and reinforcing basic HAI prevention and control measures.

Objective:To explore the clinical effect of thin superficial circumflex iliac artery perforator flap with venous superdrainage in treatment of wound in extremities.Methods:Clinical data of 20 patients who were treated from January 2018 to January 2024 in the Department of Burns and Plastic Surgery, Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University were retrospectively analysed. The soft tissue defects in extremity were reconstructed with thin perforator flaps of superficial iliac circumflex artery with venous superdrainage. There were 13 patients with upper limb defects and 7 with ankle defects. Of the defects, 12 were of trauma, 2 of tumour resection, 3 of scar release surgery and 3 of donor flat harvesting. The defects ranged from 5.0 cm×4.0 cm to 18.0 cm×7.0 cm in size. During the surgery, portable Doppler was used to detect the perforating branches of the superficial rotational iliac artery and design flaps. The flaps were 5.0 cm×5.0 cm to 20.0 cm×7.0 cm in size, including 16 single-lobed flaps, 3 double-lobed flaps and 1 triple-lobed flaps. The flaps were 2-7 mm in thickness, with an average of 4 mm. Based on the distribution of perforators, the flaps carried the superficial helioiliac artery and the accompanying vein, as well as the superficial helioiliac vein. The superficial helioiliac artery and the accompanying vein were anastomosed during the surgery, and the superficial helioiliac vein was anastomosed to the superficial or deep vein of the recipient site for superreflux. The donor sites were all directly sutured and closed. Postoperative follow-up was conducted by visits of outpatient clinic, and via telephone and WeChat interviews. The survival and appearance of the flaps and complications were observed.Results:A total of 22 arteries and 42 veins of the 20 flaps were anastomosed in surgery. All flaps survived. The donor sites were closed in the first stage. No vascular compromise occurred. One patient had early exudate under the flap on the exposed wound of interphalangeal joint, which healed after routine dressing change and drainage. All patients were included in the postoperative follow-up, with a peroid over 5 to 40 months, at 10.8 months in average. The flaps were thin and soft, with good wear resistance and without pigmentation. The healing of donor sites was good except 1 donore site that had early lymphatic leakage, which was cured after compression and drainage. A linear scar left at the donor sites and it was acceptable to the patients.Conclusion:The treatment of defective soft tissue wounds in extremities using thin perforator flap with venous superdrainage of the superficial circumflex iliac artery is safe and feasible. No further flap thinning surgery is required, and there is a reliable clinical effect.
