Objective:To investigate the association between intraoperative hypotension and postoperative cerebral ischemia in patients undergoing malignant brain tumor resection.Methods:The study was a secondary analysis of a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Four hundred and eighty patients with malignant brain tumor from November 2018 to September 2022 in Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University were selected. All patients were treated with selective supratentorial tumor resection. The demographic characteristics, perioperative indexes, postoperative outcomes and intraoperative hypotension characteristics were recorded. The cerebral ischemia during postoperative hospitalization (within 10 d after operation) was documented, and the patients were categorized based on the occurrence of postoperative cerebral ischemia.Results:Among 480 patients, 28 cases (5.83%) developed postoperative cerebral ischemia (cerebral ischemia group), while 452 cases did not experience cerebral ischemia during hospitalization (non-cerebral ischemia group). The proportion of WHO grade Ⅲ to Ⅳ, secondary surgery rate and postoperative hospital stay in cerebral ischemia group were significantly higher than those in non-cerebral ischemia group: 96.43% (27/28) vs. 81.19% (367/452), 10.71% (3/28) vs. 1.99% (9/452) and 13 (10, 16) d vs. 10 (8, 14) d, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05); there were no statistical differences in gender composition, age, body mass index, medical history, medication history, American Society of Anesthesiologists classification, Charlson comorbidity index, preoperative Karnofsky performance status score, tumor laterality, tumor volume, midline shift, operative time, operative time >5 h, fluid intake, red blood cell transfusion, plasma transfusion, blood loss, urine output, fluid balance, serum urea, serum creatinine, glomerular filtration rate, β 2-microglobulin, prothrombin time, international normalized ratio, activated partial thromboplastin time, fibrinogen, postoperative complications, ICU admission, ICU stay duration, mechanical ventilation and hospitalization costs between the two groups ( P>0.05). There were also no statistical difference in the duration, time-weighted average and cumulative area under the threshold curve for mean arterial pressure (MAP) at 65, 70 and 75 mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa), nor in the duration, time-weighted average and cumulative area under the threshold curve for relative reductions of 20%, 30% and 40% in MAP between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The patients undergoing malignant brain tumor resection have the higher risk of postoperative cerebral ischemia. The association between intraoperative hypotension and postoperative cerebral ischemia is not significant. Maintenance of intraoperative circulation should be guided by individualized monitoring and target values, which requires further interventional studies for validation.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of action of Ginkgo biloba extract on schizophrenia based on oxidative stress-mediated damage to PV interneurons.Methods 54 SPF grade male mice were selected as experimental subjects,divided into blank group,model group,ginkgo biloba extract 50 mg·kg-1,100 mg·kg-1,150 mg·kg-1 group,and risperidone group.Schizophrenic mouse models were established by intraperitoneal injection of MK-801 0.3 mg·kg-1,and behavioral(open field experiment,Y-maze,forced swimming)tests were conducted.Blood samples and brain tissue were collected 24 h after the last dose,Immunofluorescence staining was used to detect changes in PV neurons in the mouse brain;Detect the content of MAD,GSH Px,and SOD in serum using a reagent kit;ELISA method was used to detect the levels of iron and lipid peroxidation in mouse brain tissue;Western blot was used to detect the protein level of GPX4 in the mouse brain.Results Compared with the model group,the Ginkgo biloba leaf extract 150 mg·kg-1 group and the risperidone group significantly reduced the spontaneous alternation rate of the Y maze and significantly shortened the immobility time of forced swimming(P<0.05);PV neuron staining with varying degrees of enhanced fluorescence intensity;The MDA content in the serum of mice was significantly reduced(P<0.01),while the contents of SOD and GSH px were significantly increased(P<0.05);The iron content in the mouse brain was significantly reduced(P<0.05),the ROS content was significantly reduced(P<0.05),and the GPX4 content in the mouse brain was significantly increased(P<0.05).Conclusion Ginkgo biloba extract has a significant improvement effect on negative symptoms and cognitive impairment in MK-801 induced schizophrenia mouse models,and can also improve PV neuron damage in the prefrontal cortex of schizophrenia mice.Its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of iron death mediated oxidative stress by Ginkgo biloba extract.

Objective To investigate the mediating role of medical coping strategies in the relationship between perceived social support and resilience among patients with occupational pneumoconiosis (hereinafter referred to as pneumoconiosis). Methods A total of 240 pneumoconiosis patients were selected as the study subjects using the convenience sampling method. The Perceived Social Support Scale, the 10-item Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale and Medical Coping Strategies Questionnaire were used to evaluate their perceived social support, resilience and medical coping strategies. AMOS 26.0 software was used to construct the structural equation model. Results The average scores of perceived social support and resilience were (56.6±0.9) and (20.9±7.5), respectively. The scores for the dimensions of confrontation, avoidance and resignation of medical coping strategies were (20.2±3.6), (11.2±3.1) and (18.1±2.9), respectively. The score of resilience was positively correlated with the score of perceived social support, avoidance dimension and confrontation dimension of medical coping strategies (r=0.260, 0.176, 0.174, all P<0.01). It was negatively correlated with resignation coping (r=-0.292, P<0.01). The results of mediating effect test showed that the total effect of perceived social support on resilience was 0.252 [95% confidence interval (CI) was 0.056-0.448], which mainly affected the resilience by affecting the resignation coping (95%CI: -0.458 to -0.104), with the indirect effect value of 0.120, accounting for 47.6% of the total effect. Conclusion The resilience of pneumoconiosis patients is moderately low. Resignation coping in medical coping strategies plays a mediating role between perceived social support and resilience in pneumoconiosis patients.

Objective:To explore the methods and clinical effects of reconstructing facial and cervical scars with expanded flaps based on the "MLT" principle.Methods:The study was a retrospective observational study. From January 2019 to May 2022, 74 patients with facial and cervical scars after burn or trauma injuries who met the inclusion criteria were admitted to Xiangya Hospital of Central South University, including 38 males and 36 females, aged from 5 to 58 years, including 24 patients with simple facial involvement, 24 patients with simple cervical involvement, and 26 patients with both facial and cervical involvement, with scar area ranging from 12 to 145 cm2. By following the "MLT" principle (color and texture similar to the face; flap area large enough to reconstruct the entire defect; skin tissue thin enough to transmit the expression, so as to facilitate the shape of the face and five features); in the stage Ⅰ surgery, the skin and soft tissue expanders (hereinafter referred to as the expanders) were implanted, and in the stage Ⅱ surgery, the expander removal+scar resection+flap transplantation to repair the secondary wound was performed, and the wound in the donor area of flap was directly sutured. After operation, silicone gel preparation and laser therapy were used to prevent scar hyperplasia. The expansion ratio and time period of expanders, the occurrence of complications of skin and soft tissue expansion surgery, the type of flap used, and the survival of flap after the stage Ⅱ surgery were observed and recorded. The long-term effect of facial and cervical reconstruction and the recovery of donor area and recipient area of flap were evaluated during the postoperative follow-up after surgery.Results:The expansion ratio of 135 expanders ranged from 1.36 to 3.00 times, and the expansion time period ranged from 6 to 14 months. During skin and soft tissue expansion surgery, 8 patients had poor healing of incisions after expander placement, 7 patients had expander rupture, 5 patients had infection in incisions after expander placement, 3 patients had expander exposure, 2 patients had difficult filling the injection pot, and 1 patient had water leakage from the injection pot. Dorsal shoulder expanded flaps with double blood supply of transverse cervical artery and circumflex scapular artery were used in 8 patients, the expanded flaps of anterior transverse carotid artery perforator were used in 11 patients, the expanded flaps of internal thoracic artery perforator were used in 12 patients, tandem expanded flaps of upper chest and neck were used in 16 patients, dorsal thoracic artery perforator expanded flaps were used in 5 patients, and adjacent rotary propulsive expanded flaps were used in 22 patients. After the stage Ⅱ surgery, the flaps of 71 patients were completely survived. One patient had blood circulation disorder in the flap, and the flap survived after hyperbaric oxygen treatment. Necrosis occurred at the end of the flaps in 2 patients, which healed after dressing change. After the surgery, 42 patients were followed up for 3 to 24 months. The color, texture, and thickness of flaps were good and similar to the surrounding normal skin tissue in the recipient area, the appearance and function of the face and neck were significantly improved, and the wound location in the donor and recipient areas of flaps was concealed with slight scar formation.Conclusions:In the reconstruction of facial and neck scars, by following the "MLT" principle, the expanded flap was carefully designed before surgery, the local aesthetic features within the subunit are reconstructed during the stage Ⅱ surgery, and standard anti-scar treatment measures are actively adopted after surgery. After reconstruction, the color, texture, and thickness of flaps were close to the normal skin in face and neck, and the appearance and function of face and neck are significantly improved, with less linear scars left. It is beneficial to improve the therapeutic effect.

Objective:To explore the clinical changes in levels of the new clinical marker serum hepatitis B virus (HBV) pregenomic RNA (pgRNA) in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) with long-term antiviral therapy.Methods:100 CHB cases who were initially treated with nucleos(t)ide analogues (NAs) at Peking University First Hospital were included. The levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), HBV DNA, hepatitis B e-antigen (HBeAg), and hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) during the follow-up period were measured. The TaqMan-based real-time quantitative PCR method was used to detect serum HBV pgRNA levels. The independent sample t-test and Mann-Whitney U test were used to compare continuous variables between groups, while Pearson's χ2 test and Fisher's exact test were used to compare categorical variables. Results:HBV pgRNA levels decreased significantly in patients who developed virological responses at 48 weeks ( n = 54) during subsequent treatment compared to those who did not ( n = 46). The HBV pgRNA level was lower in HBeAg-positive patients than in HBeAg-negative patients ( P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Patients with higher HBV DNA and HBeAg-positivity levels at baseline had a higher HBV pgRNA level following antiviral therapy. There was no statistically significant difference in HBV pgRNA levels in patients with different HBV pgRNA levels at baseline after antiviral therapy. There was no correlation between serum HBV pgRNA and HBsAg at baseline, but there was a correlation after long-term antiviral therapy, while there was a weak correlation between HBV pgRNA and HBsAg at the fifth and ninth years of antiviral therapy ( r = 0.262, P = 0.031; r = 0.288, P = 0.008). Conclusion:HBV pgRNA levels were higher with higher HBV activity in CHB patients with long-term antiviral therapy.

ObjectiveTo verify and promote the HIV antibody urine test in a demonstration zone for HIV prevention and control in Xinjiang， and to assess the sensitivity and specificity of the test and the willingness of the volunteers， providing a basis for evaluating and determining whether it was suitable for large-scale use in the region. MethodsStratified cluster sampling was used to select the respondents in a place in Xinjiang for questionnaire survey and sample collecting. Questionnaire results were statistically described， and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of willingness to use HIV-1 urine test. The results of blood ELISA antibody detection method were used as a reference to calculate the specificity， sensitivity and Kappa value of urinary HIV-1 antibody in the total population and different populations. ResultsA total of 2 504 volunteers were recruited for the urine self-testing. The sensitivity of HIV-1 antibody urine test in the total population was 94.73% （54/57）， the specificity was 100% （2 447）， the positive predictive value was 100% （54/54）， and the negative predictive value was 99.88% （2 447/2 450）. The specificity of each population group was 100% when comparing different populations. The test sensitivity was 100% in pregnant women， prostitutes and drug users， 50% （1/2） in MSM subjects， with a Kappa value of 0.796. The test sensitivity was 80% （8/10） in the volunteers， with a Kappa value of 0.878. In the satisfaction survey， 73.1% population was more likely to receive urinary rapid test than the blood fast test， 93.8% of the population was willing to recommend the rapid urinary detection to other people. More than 70% of the population was satisfied with the rapid urinary detection. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age， degree of education， occupation， marital status， payment method of medical expenses， and income level were the influence factors of the purchase of urine fast reagent for the self-testing （P<0.05）. ConclusionUrinary HIV-1 antibody detection method has good reliability and public satisfaction. It is suitable for large-scale use in Xinjiang.

Objective:To explore the repair methods of complex facial defect wounds involving paranasal sinuses and their clinical effectiveness.Methods:A retrospective observational study was conducted. From January 2020 to May 2022, 5 patients admitted to the Department of Burns and Plastic Surgery of Xiangya Hospital of Central South University and 4 patients admitted to the Department of Burns and Plastic Surgery of Chenzhou First People's Hospital with complex facial defect wounds involving paranasal sinuses met the inclusion criteria, including 6 males and 3 females, aged 35-69 years, including 4 patients with titanium mesh exposure combined with paranasal sinuses injury and 5 patients with tumor involving paranasal sinuses. After an adequate assessment of the damage by a multiple discipline team, titanium mesh removal, paranasal sinus debridement, and paranasal sinus mucosa removal were performed in patients with exposed titanium mesh, and radical tumor resection was performed in patients with tumors, with postoperative skin and soft tissue defects areas of 5.0 cm×2.5 cm to 18.0 cm×7.0 cm, anterior paranasal sinus wall defects/absence areas of 3 cm×2 cm to 6 cm×4 cm, and sinus cavity depths of 1 to 4 cm. Depending on the perforator course of the descending branch of the lateral circumflex femoral artery, the anterolateral femoral chimeric flap or anterolateral femoral myocutaneous flap (with flap area of 9 cm×4 cm to 19 cm×8 cm, muscle size of 5 cm×3 cm×3 cm to 11 cm×6 cm×3 cm) was transplanted to repair the defect, and the donor site wound was sutured directly. The type of tissue flap transplanted, the blood vessel of the recipient area, and the vascular anastomosis way during the operation, the recovery of the donor and recipient areas and the occurrence of complications after operation were observed. The appearance and blood supply of the recipient area and the recurrence of ulcers and tumors were followed up.Results:The anterolateral femoral myocutaneous flap transplantation was performed in 6 patients, and the anterolateral femoral chimeric flap transplantation was performed in 3 patients. The blood vessels in recipient areas were facial arteries and veins in 3 cases and superficial temporal arteries and veins in 6 cases. The superficial temporal arteries and veins were bridged with blood vessels in tissue flaps by flow-through way in 2 patients, and end-to-end anastomosis of blood vessels in donor and recipient areas was performed in 7 patients. After operation, all the tissue flaps survived, and the facial defect wounds were well repaired without cerebrospinal fluid leakage or paranasal sinus secretion leakage, no intracranial infection occurred, and the wounds in donor areas were healed well. Follow-up of 6-35 months after operation showed that all the patients had good blood supply in the recipient area, and the shape was acceptable; 4 patients with exposed titanium mesh had no recurrence of ulceration, and 5 patients with tumor had no local tumor recurrence or metastasis.Conclusions:Based on an adequate assessment of the extent of paranasal sinuses involved in the facial wound and the nature of the defect, good clinical effects can be achieved by using the anterolateral femoral muscle flap or the anterolateral femoral chimeric flap transplantation to repair complex facial defect wounds with open paranasal sinuses.

Objective:To evaluate the activity of iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) in fetal villi and peripheral blood plasma of pregnant women at high risk of mucopolysaccharidosis type Ⅱ (MPS Ⅱ), and to discuss the application of gene analysis in prenatal diagnosis of MPS Ⅱ.Methods:The enzymatic testing and gene analysis results of 23 pregnant women at high risk of MPS Ⅱ, who underwent prenatal diagnosis in Guangzhou Women and Children′s Medical Center from February 2013 to December 2020, were analyzed retrospectively.The IDS activity in fetal villi (30 cases) and plasma (28 cases) was detected by artificial substrate fluorescence.The IDS activity in fetal villi (28 cases) and plasma (34 cases) of normal pregnant women was taken as control.Meanwhile, the fetal villi of both pregnant women at high risk of MPS Ⅱ and normal pregnant women were also analyzed by gene testing and for fetal sex identification.Data were compared between groups by the independent samples t test. Results:The normal reference values of the IDS activity in fetal villi and plasma of normal pregnant women were(71.2±23.4) nmol/(mg·4 h) and (611.1±114.5) nmol/(mL·4 h), respectively.Among the 30 cases of high-risk fetal villi, the IDS activity in fetal villi of 8 affected male fetuses was (1.7±0.3) nmol/(mg·4 h), which was significantly lower than that of 11 unaffected male fetuses (83.2±6.3) nmol/(mg·4 h) and that of 9 non-carrier female fetuses (80.0±7.5) nmol/(mg·4 h) ( t=10.8, 8.8; all P<0.01). Meanwhile, the IDS activity was measured in the maternal peripheral plasma of 28 pregnant women at high risk of MPS Ⅱ.Among them, the IDS activity in 8 affected male fetuses was(225.4±20.5) nmol/(mL·4 h), which was significantly lower than that in non-affected male fetuses[(451.0±15.1) nmol/(mL·4 h)] and that in non-carrier female fetuses[(467.7±45.3)nmol/(mL·4 h)]. Eight known pathogenic mutations were found in 30 cases at high risk of MPS Ⅱ of fetal villi, and the mutation types were c. 1048A>C, c.212G>A, c.514C>T, c.257C>T, c.425C>T, and c. 998C>T.Of the 8 cases, 6 affected male fetuses had significantly reduced IDS activities, and the other 2 female carriers had normal IDS enzyme activities. Conclusions:The IDS activity in fetal villi and peripheral plasma of pregnant woman is consistent with the gene analysis results.The IDS activity has an important reference value for the prenatal diagnosis of MPS Ⅱ in the first trimester.When no genetic mutations are found in the probands or the pathogenicity of the new mutation remains unclear, the IDS activity in fetal villi can be detected separately for the prenatal diagnosis of MPS Ⅱ.
