Establishing a scientific talent classification evaluation mechanism is of great significance for public hospitals to motivate and guide the career development of various types of talents and to promote the high-quality development of the health and medical care industry. However, university-affiliated hospitals had long faced issues such as an imperfect talent classification evaluation system, difficulty in setting evaluation indicators, a relatively monolithic evaluation method, and insufficient application of evaluation results. In 2019, Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, initiated a talent stratification and classification management mechanism. The hospital established separate evaluation indicator systems for clinical, research, and teaching talents, and adhered to a value orientation that equally emphasizes medical care, teaching, and research. Additionally, a diversified evaluation mode was constructed, led by the hospital with the participation of peers and the public. Emphasis was also placed on linking evaluation results with talent development, rewards, and excellence awards. The initiative has achieved positive outcomes and can serve as a reference for talent management in other university-affiliated hospitals and relevant departments.

Objective:To retrospectively analyze the BKV infection of recipients after kidney transplantation(RT)and provide references for diagnosing and treating BK virus infection post-RT.Methods:From January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2020, clinical and follow-up data were reviewed for 561 RT recipients(cadaveric and living donor kidney)at First Hospital of Jilin University. DNA loading of BK virus in blood and urine was determined by quantitative polymerase chain reaction(qPCR)and kidney allograft biopsy performed. Based upon the results, they are divided into four groups of A (372 cases), high-level BK viruria(group B, 128 cases), BK viremia(group C, 52 cases)and BK virus nephropathy(BKVN)(group D, 9 cases). The variables related to BK virus infection were screened by univariate analysis. Meaningful variables( P<0.1)are incorporated into the multi-factor ordered Logistic regression model for examining the independent risk factors of postoperative BK virus infection. Results:The incidence of high-level BKV viruria is 33.69%(189/561)at 18 months post-RT. The average detection time is(4.2±3.8)months, the incidence of BK viremia 10.87%(61/561)and the average detection time(5.2±3.6)months post-RT. The incidence of BKVN is 1.78%(9/561)and the average detection time(7.0±4.0)months post-RT. Univariate analysis showed that gender, age, immunotherapeutic regimen, history of acute rejection and type of donor are correlated with BKV infection. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that male recipient( P=0.013), immune maintenance regimen( P<0.001)and history of acute rejection( P=0.002)were independent risk factors for developing postoperative BKV infection. Conclusions:There is a high incidence of BKV infection within 12 months post-RT. Male recipient, history of acute rejection and immune maintenance regimen are independent risk factors for BKV infection post-RT.

OBJECTIVETo explore the myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) expression in the peripheral blood and lesions of 4NQO-induced tongue carcinoma in mouse.

METHODSThe established 4NQO mouse model was used to analyze the distribution of MDSC and T cell subsets in the peripheral blood by flow cytometry. The relations of MDSC with T cell subsets and CD4⁺/CD8⁺ changes were evaluated. The distribution of MDSC in the lesions of tongues was analyzed by immu- nohistochemistry, and the expression of arginase 1 (ARG-1) in tongue tissues was detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction.

RESULTSDuring tumor progression, a significant increase was observed in the frequency of MDSC in the peripheral blood of 4NQO treated mice (P < 0.01). The frequency of MDSC was positively correlated with systemic CD3⁺CD8+T cells but negatively correlated with the CD4⁺/CD8⁺ ratio. Squamous cell carcinomas were extensively infiltrated with MDSC, whereas dysplastic area and normal tongue mucosa had only sparse MDSC infiltration. The majority of MDSCs were located in the stroma, particularly along the tumor invasive front. Moreover, 4NQO-treated mice showed significantly higher ARG-1 mRNA levels in the tumor site (P<0.01).

CONCLUSIONMDSC may contribute to oral tumor progression and represents a potential target for immunotherapy of oral cancer.

Objective To discuss the management and selection of donor and recipient veins in the transfer of vascularied autogeneous submandibular gland (SMG).Methods The SMGs of 48 patients with severe keratoconjunctivitis were transfered to the temporal region by microsurgery from June,2002 to June,2013.The secreted saliva was used as the substitute of tear.Donor and accepting-site vessels,vessels crisis and managements,survival of grafts were retrospectively analysed.Results Transplantation succeeded in 45 patients and failed in 3.For donor veins,39 were facial veins,12 were venae comitantes of facial artery,1 was vein near the duct.For revipient veins,41 were superficial temporary veins,6 were deep temporary veins and 5 were veins in the upper neck.For revipient artery,except superficial temporary artery,deep temporary artery was also a good selection.After surgery,2/5 venous crisis cases were rescued by reanastomosising veins.TC99m examination suggested that the 49 TSMGs were survived,and the ducts were unobstructed.Follow up lasted for 6 months to 10 years,the symptoms of photophobia and anemophobia were alleviated,the symptoms of corneal xerosis disappeared.Good clinical efficacy was obtained after transplantion.Conclusion During SMGs transplantion,facial veins,venae comitantes of facial artery or vein near the duct can be used for donor vein.For recipient veins,except the superficial temporary veins as major,deep temporary veins or veins in the upper neck is also a secection.Correct selection and microsurgical management of donor and revipient veins are keys to successful SMGs transplantion.

Objeetive To investigate the outcome of microvascular reconstruction of the tongue with anterolateral thigh flaps in the treatment of middle-late stage tongue cancer patients. Methods From December 2003 to March 2007,nine patients underwent simultaneous reconstruction of the tongue and oral floor defects with anterolateral thigh flaps after resection of squamous cell carcinoma of tongue.The flaps ranged from 7 cm×10 cm to 10 cm×12 cm in size,and were adjusted to the defect of the tongue and oral floor.The vascular pedicle included descending branch of the lateral femoral circumflex artery and the accompanying veins.The outcome of reconstruction was evaluated by follow-up examinations,considering the contour and mobility of the reconstructed tongues,the swallowing function and the speech function.Results All of the donor sites were closed directly,with minimal donor-site morbidity. All patients recovered unevenffully from surgery,with no immediate postoperative complications:no flap necrosis,no wound infection or wound dehiscence.The transplanted flaps survived well.The average follow-up period was 18 months.During the follow-up period there was no tumor recurrence and the contour of the reconstructed tongues showed sufficient bulk.The patients demonstrated good mobility of the reconstructed tongue.The swallowing and speech function recovered satisfactory.Two months postoperatively the patients were able to ingest a solid or semisolid diet,and six months postoperatively the patients developed intelligibe language.Conclusion The anterolateral thigh flaps are suitable and reliable for the microsurgical reconstruction of the large defects caused by middle-late stage tongue cancer.
