Objective:To analyze the research trends and hotspots of bupivacaine liposomes from 1994 to 2023 using bibliometrics.Methods:A comprehensive search was conducted for the literature related to bupivacaine liposomes in the Web of Science Core Collection from 1994 to 2023. The CiteSpace software was used to conduct an in-depth analysis of the included literature data, including publication year, country, institution, author, journal, cited references, keywords, etc.Results:A total of 875 papers related to bupivacaine liposomes were included. The research and development of bupivacaine liposomes were divided into 3 stages: slow development (1994-2011), a sharp rise (2011-2021), and stabilization (2021-2023). The United States was in a leading position in terms of the number of publications, centrality, and author cooperation, and Harvard University had the largest number of publications. de Paula E had the most publications, Bramlett K had the highest number of citations, and Boogaerts J had the highest centrality of publications. Journals such as Anesthesia and Analgesia made significant contributions to this field. The most cited references focused on the infiltration of wounds and the periprosthetic injection of bupivacaine liposomes. The keyword analysis showed that local anesthetics, postoperative pain, etc. were commonly used keywords, and enhanced recovery after surgery was an emerging hotspot. Conclusions:Bupivacaine liposomes show good application prospects in the field of peripheral nerve block due to their unique pharmacological properties and safety characteristics and are expected to prolong the duration of postoperative analgesia. However, there is a difference between the actual effect and the expectation, and more clinical trials are needed to evaluate the curative effect, providing a more solid and reliable theoretical basis and practical guidance for clinical practice.

Additive manufacturing(3D printing)technology aligns with the direction of precision and customization in future medicine,presenting a significant opportunity for innovative development in high-end medical devices.Currently,research and industrialization of 3D printed medical devices mainly focus on nondegradable implants and degradable implants.Primary areas including metallic orthopaedic implants,polyether-ether-ketone(PEEK)bone implants,and biodegradable implants have been developed for clinical and industrial application.Recent research achievements in these areas are reviewed,with a discussion on the additive manufacturing technologies and applications for customized implants.Challenges faced by different types of implants are analyzed from technological,application,and regulatory perspectives.Furthermore,prospects and suggestions for future development are outlined.

Objective:To analyze the current status of anesthesiology research in the world and China in 2023 and to identify the anesthesiology research hotspots using bibliometrics.Methods:The literature related to anesthesiology published in PubMed in 2023 was searched, and the country and author of the literature, as well as the key words of the literature were visually analyzed by using the software CiteSpace6.2. R4.Results:A total of 22 473 articles were included, the country with the largest number of publications was the United States, and China ranked second. The author with the highest number of publications in the field of anesthesiology in the worldwide in 2023 was Kaye Alan D from the United States. Chronic pain, general anesthesia and pain management were the research hotspots in the field of anesthesiology worldwide in 2023. The research hotspots in the field of anesthesiology in China focused on general anesthesia, oxidative stress and neuropathic pain.Conclusions:The United States is the leader in the research in the field of anesthesiology, with China following behind. The keywords of the literature in the field of anesthesiology between China and the world are roughly the same, reflecting the convergence of Chinese scientific research with global scientific research. Domestic anaesthesia practitioners can refer to or learn from the research hotspots of related countries and strengthen communication and cooperation between teams while conducting academic research.

Objective To compare genomic copy number variations (CNVs) among different subtypes of breast cancer and analyze specific CNVs in each subtype. Methods AIMS software was used for genotype breast cancer (BasL, Her2, LumA and LumB), and GISTIC2.0 software was used to analyze genome-wide CNVs in tumor tissues from TCGA. We collected and analyzed the information and samples of 324 cases of invasive breast cancer admitted to Jiangmen Central Hospital(JMCH). Fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to detect the CNV of ERBB2, TFDP1, MIR148B, CCND1, MDM2 and MIR139 genes in the tumor tissues, to verify TCGA analysis. Results 13q34 was specifically amplified and 12q13.13 was specifically deleted in BasL-type breast cancer. The 17q12 was specifically amplified in Her2 type. The 12q15 was specifically amplified and 11q13.4 was specifically deleted in LumB type, but LumA type had no specific amplification or deletion of chromosome region. The proportion of TFDP1 amplification or MIR148B deletion in BasL type were 57.8% (TCGA) and 71.4% (JMCH), which were significantly higher than other subtypes (P < 0.001). The proportion of ERBB2 amplification of Her2 type were 55.2% (TCGA) and 86.7% (JMCH), which were significantly higher than other subtypes (P < 0.001). The proportion of LumB type with CCND1 or MDM2 amplification or MIR139 deletion were 47.6% (TCGA) and 61.8% (JMCH), which were significantly higher than other subtypes (P < 0.05). Conclusion At the CNV level of breast cancer, Her2 type is characterized by the amplification of ERBB2, BasL type is characterized by the amplification of TFDP1 or the deletion of MIR148B, LumB type is characterized by the amplification of CCND1 or MDM2 or the deletion of MIR139, but LumA type lacks specific CNV characteristics.
