Objective To analyze the main causes and risk factors of unplanned reoperation after liver transplantation. Methods The clinical data of 242 liver transplant recipients in the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from January 2015 to December 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. According to whether unplanned reoperation was performed during the same hospitalization after surgery, the recipients were divided into the reoperation group (n=36) and the non-reoperation group (n=206). The preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative data of the two groups, as well as donor and graft-related data, were compared to analyze the risk factors of unplanned reoperation after liver transplantation and the survival status of the two groups. Results Among the 242 liver transplant recipients, 36 underwent unplanned reoperations, with a total of 54 procedures including various laparotomies, endoscopic and interventional surgeries, among which there were 20 laparotomies, 18 endoscopic surgeries and 16 interventional surgeries. The most common cause of unplanned reoperation was biliary complications (20 times), followed by vascular complications (17 times). Compared with the non-reoperation group, the reoperation group had longer graft cold ischemia time, higher postoperative fatality rate of recipients, longer length of stay in the intensive care unit and postoperative hospital stay, and higher total hospitalization costs (all P<0.05). The incidence of unplanned reoperation was higher in recipients who underwent split liver transplantation (P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that intraoperative blood loss ≥1 000 mL, positive culture of graft perfusate and split liver transplantation were independent risk factors for unplanned reoperation (all P<0.05). The postoperative 7-day, 1-month, 3-month and 6-month survival rates of recipients in the reoperation group and the non-reoperation group were 100% vs. 98.1%, 88.9% vs. 94.2%, 69.4% vs. 90.8% and 66.7% vs. 90.8%, respectively, and the postoperative survival rate of recipients in the reoperation group was lower than that in the non-reoperation group (P<0.05). Conclusions The main causes of unplanned reoperation after liver transplantation are biliary complications, vascular complications, abdominal incision infection and intra-abdominal hemorrhage. Intraoperative massive blood loss, positive culture of graft perfusate and split liver transplantation are the risk factors associated with unplanned reoperation after liver transplantation.

Objective This qualitative study aimed to explore the home-based exercise rehabilitation experiences of elderly patients after hip fracture surgery,in order to provide references for exercise intervention during rehabili-tation period.Methods Objective sampling method was used to select 13 elderly hip fracture patients who were hospitalized in the joint surgery department of a tertiary A hospital in Beijing from August 2023 to June 2024 as the research subjects.Semi-structured interviews were conducted,and the interview data were sorted and analyzed by content analysis method.Results The home-based exercise rehabilitation experience of elderly patients after hip fracture surgery can be summarized into 3 themes,including multi-dimensional self-empowerment,use of dynamic personalized skills,full cycle balance reconstruction.Conclusion Patients after hip fracture surgery have rich expe-riences in home exercise rehabilitation,including self-empowerment,exercise skills and balance reconstruction.Nurs-ing staff should strengthen long-term follow-up,according to the real experience and feeling of the patient's home exercise rehabilitation in the whole cycle,actively assist the patients to self-empower,and use various exercise skills to constantly rebuild balance to achieve rehabilitation.

The problem of bacterial resistance caused by antibiotics is becoming increasingly serious worldwide, which poses a great challenge to the treatment of infectious diseases. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) was initially used for cancer treatment. In recent years, PDT has developed into a novel antibacterial strategy to achieve efficient pathogen clearance through mechanisms such as reactive oxygen species(ROS)-mediated damage and immune activation. Due to its advantages of non-invasiveness, high targeting and no drug resistance, PDT has attracted extensive attention in the field of antibacterial medicine. However, PDT still faces limitations such as insufficient permeability, small range of ROS release, short duration, and poor vector stability. In response to these problems, researchers have improved photosensitizers and light sources, and achieved synergistic effects by combining antibiotics, chemotherapy drugs, and photothermal therapy, which has significantly enhanced the antibacterial effect. This article reviews the progress of PDT in the field of oral medicine, introduces the development and characteristics of three generations of photosensitizers, discusses the limitations and optimization strategies of different photosensitizers, and summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of PDT in the treatment of related infectious diseases. Subsequently, the mechanism and therapeutic potential of PDT in oral cancer, periodontitis, peri-implantitis and pulpal and apical diseases were reviewed.

Objective:To construct a narrative nursing intervention plan for post-traumatic growth (PTG) in breast cancer patients and evaluate its effectiveness.Methods:Based on PTG model and the core principles of narrative nursing techniques, an intervention plan was constructed, consisting of three themes. The first unit, "Me and Them, " used externalization techniques to construct deliberate rumination. The second unit, "What Kind of Person Am I, " used deconstruction and rewriting techniques to promote effective disease coping. The third unit, "We Are Together, " applied external witnesses and therapeutic documentation techniques to enhance social support and consolidate growth. Individualized face-to-face interventions were implemented, with each unit receiving one session lasting 1 to 1.5 hours, for a total of three sessions. Using purposive sampling, 42 breast cancer patients hospitalized in the Daytime Ward of Beijing Tiantan Hospital from July to October 2024 were selected. These patients were divided into an intervention group, which received the narrative nursing intervention plan, and a control group, which received routine nursing care, with 21 patients in each group. The Post-Traumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI) and the Chinese version of the Event-Related Rumination Inventory (C-ERRI) were used to assess the patients before and after the intervention.Results:After the intervention, the intervention group showed significantly higher scores on the PTGI and deliberate rumination in the C-ERRI compared to the control group, while the intervention group had significantly lower scores on intrusive rumination in the C-ERRI compared to the control group. The differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The narrative nursing intervention plan for PTG in breast cancer patients constructed in this study is scientifically sound and feasible. It can help breast cancer patients enhance their PTG levels and develop deliberate rumination.

The ethical problems in the prevention and control of public disasters and epidemics have attracted more and more attention. Briefly combed the disaster and epidemic events in ancient China. From the view of the several basic principles of public health ethics, this paper took four aspects of the distribution of medical and health resources for epidemic diseases, the isolation prevention and control, the skeleton convergence and the protection of public health conditions as examples, to dialectically treat the measures taken by ancient people to deal with disasters and epidemics and explore some enlightenment of public health ethics in ancient Chinese disasters and epidemics. The measures of epidemic prevention and disaster resistance in ancient China have their own formation and development process. Although the historical limitations are insurmountable, interpreting it by using the basic principles of public health ethics will help us understand the development process of epidemic prevention and control, promote the development of medical archaeology, and provide some reference for the construction of public health undertakings today.

Liver retransplantation is the final option for graft failure after liver transplantation.The interval between the first and second liver transplantation will directly affect surgical indications,technical diffiiculties and treatment outcomes of adult liver retransplantation.Previous studies have shown that the overall survival of liver allografts and recipients after liver retransplantation is significantly lower than that after the first liver transplantation.However,with comprehensive progress in organ preservation methods,anesthesia management concepts,intensive care strategies,surgical techniques and new immunosuppressive drugs,clinical efficacy of adult liver retransplantation has been significantly improved.In this article,the changes of indications,timing of operation,long-term effiicacy and its influencing factors,technical difficulties,selection of immunosuppressive regimens and the implementation of living donor liver retransplantation were reviewed,and the achievements,challenges and potential solutions of adult liver retransplantation were summarized,aiming to provide reference for enhancing clinical efficacy of adult liver retransplantation.

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a serious nervous system disease that usually leads to the impairment of the motor, sensory, and autonomic nervous functions of the spinal cord, and it places a heavy burden on families and healthcare systems every year. Due to the complex pathophysiological mechanism of SCI and the poor ability of neurons to regenerate, the current treatment scheme has very limited effects on the recovery of spinal cord function. In addition, due to their unique advantages, exosomes can be used as carriers for cargo transport. In recent years, some studies have confirmed that treatment with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can promote the recovery of SCI nerve function. The therapeutic effect of MSCs is mainly related to exosomes secreted by MSCs, and exosomes may have great potential in SCI therapy. In this review, we summarized the repair mechanism of mesenchymal stem cells-derived exosomes (MSCs-Exos) in SCI treatment and discussed the microRNAs related to SCI treatment based on MSCs-Exos and their mechanism of action, which is helpful to further understand the role of exosomes in SCI.
