To introduce the modified pharyngeal flap of bilateral muscular rings (BMR), and to discuss the clinical effect of this operation in the correction of moderate and severe velopharyngeal insufficiency. The clinical data of 18 patients who underwent BMR surgery in the Department of Craniofacial Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery, School of Stomatology, The Fourth Military Medical University from May 2019 to July 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 10 males and 8 females, with a median age of 8.5 years (aged from 5 to 34 years). The patients were diagnosed preoperatively with moderate to severe velopharyngeal insufficiency (velopharyngeal closure ratio<0.7). The results of nasopharyngoscopy and speech assessment were compared and analyzed before operation and at the follow-up 6 months after the operation to evaluate the changes in velopharyngeal function and speech. Eighteen patients underwent BMR, 4 patients had snoring (the symptom disappeared after a few weeks in 3 cases), and 2 patients had local erosion of the wound, which delayed healing. Postoperative nasopharyngoscopy showed that all patients achieved comparatively complete velopharyngeal closure, some patients got enhanced lateral pharyngeal wall motility, and all patients got active motility of posterior pharyngeal wall flap. The postoperative speech assessment was significantly improved compared with that before the operation. The preoperative median score was 9 (range 7-12), and the postoperative median score was 2 (range 0-4). The statistical analysis was performed by paired non-parametric Wilcoxon signed rank test, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001). BMR is a reliable method for the treatment of moderate and severe velopharyngeal insufficiency. This technique can achieve functional contraction of the full circumference of the ventilator while preserving the obstructive effect of the posterior pharyngeal wall flap, which is helpful to balance nasal ventilation and velopharyngeal closure and improve the velopharyngeal function of patients.

Wound healing is a complex process of biological integration in which the adverse conditions such as excessive inflammatory reactions, cell proliferation and migration disorders, and cellular secretion impairment can lead to refractory wounds. Characterized by complex etiology, protracted condition, and high morbidity and recurrence rate, refractory wounds severely impair patients′ physical and mental health. In clinical practice, refractory wounds are primarily treated with surgical debridement and skin transplantation, but there still exist problems such as large surgical wounds, prolonged recovery time, and high recurrence rate. In recent years, owing to the multipotent differentiation, immunomodulatory, and paracrine functions of stem cells, cell-assisted lipotransfer (CAL) technique, which involves intra-body injection of a mixture of autologous adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) and granular fat for refractory wound repair, has demonstrated promising application prospects. It is of great significance in its clinical application to clarify the mechanism of effects of CAL technique in refractory wound repair. The authors reviewed the research progress in the mechanism of effects of CAL technique in repairing refractory wounds to provide references for the research and treatment of refractory wounds.

The adipose-derived stem cell exosomes are subcellular structures of adipose stem cells. They are nano-sized membrane vesicles that can transport various cell components and act on target cells by paracrine, and they play an important role in the exchanges of substance and information between cells. Scar healing is the commonest way of healing after skin tissue injury. Pathological scar can not only cause movement dysfunction, but also lead to deformity, which affects the appearance of patients and brings life and mental pressure to the patients. In recent years, many researches have shown that the adipose-derived stem cell exosomes contain a variety of bioactive molecules, which play an important role in reducing scar formation and scar-free wound healing, by affecting the proliferation and migration of fibroblasts and the composition of extracellular matrix. This article reviewed the recent literature on the roles and mechanisms of adipose-derived stem cell exosomes in scar formation, and prospected the future application and development of adipose-derived stem cell exosomes in scar treatment.

Objective:To analyze drug resistance, virulence and molecular epidemiological characteristics of Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus) isolated from skin sites of suppurative infections, and to provide an experimental basis for clinical anti-infective therapies. Methods:Swab samples from suppurative skin lesions and nasal secretions were collected from inpatients in Department of Dermatology, the Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University from May 2020 to December 2020, and subjected to bacterial isolation and culture. Suspected S. aureus colonies were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Drug sensitivity test was conducted by using the broth microdilution method. Virulence genes of S. aureus were amplified by PCR, and real-time fluorescence-based quantitative PCR was performed to determine the relative expression of 4 virulence genes including tsst-1, pvl, hla and clfA in S. aureus strains from different sources. S. aureus strains were genotyped by multilocus sequence typing. Drug resistance rates and detection rates of virulence genes were compared by using chi-square test or Fisher′s exact test, and measurement data among groups were compared by using t test or Mann-Whitney U test. Results:A total of 85 strains of S. aureus were isolated from 210 inpatients, including 54 isolates from skin sites of suppurative infections (case group) and 31 isolates from the nasal cavity (control group) . Drug sensitivity test showed that 14 strains of methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) were identified among 85 strains of S. aureus. The resistance rate to penicillin was the highest (90.59%, 77/85) in the 85 S. aureus strains; the resistance rates to clindamycin and erythromycin were 60.00% (51/85) and 61.18% (52/85) respectively; no strains showed resistance to rifampicin, vancomycin or linezolid. PCR showed that the detection rate of the pvl gene was 33.33% (18/54) in the case group, which was significantly higher than that in the control group (12.90%, 4/31; χ2= 4.28, P= 0.038) . Real-time fluorescence-based quantitative PCR showed that the relative expression level of the clfA gene was significantly higher in the control group (3.87[2.30, 5.94]) than in the case group (1.63[0.95, 2.62], P= 0.007) . A total of 17 ST types were identified among the 85 strains of S. aureus, and the dominant types were ST398-methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (20/71) and ST22-MRSA (9/14) . The detection rate of the virulence gene pvl was significantly higher in the ST22-MRSA strain (14/14) than in the non-ST22 MRSA strains (0, P < 0.001) . Conclusions:S. aureus strains isolated from the skin sites of suppurative infections were highly resistant to penicillin, clindamycin and erythromycin, so these antibiotics should not be used as the first-choice empiric treatment. The occurrence of cutaneous S. aureus infections may be associated with the virulence gene pvl, and the nasal colonization of S. aureus may be associated with the clfA gene.

The consensus aims to provide criteria for the diagnosis and treatment of OMSI in China so as to improve the level of OMSI treatment.

Objective: To investigate the automatic implicit attitude and explicit stigma of mental illness, and the intervention effectiveness on the stigma of mental illness in college students. Methods: Single category implicit association test(SC-IAT) and questionnaire survey were used to study the degree of implicit and explicit mental illness stigma among 30 college students of Peking University, and investigated the effect of two strategies, education and contact.Data were analyzed by SPSS 22.0 with t-test and variance analysis. Results: The D values of SC-IAT in the three dimensions of cognitive evaluation, emotional response and behavioral tendency of college students were 0.29±0.37, 0.24±0.43, and 0.10±0.43.There was a statistically significant difference between the cognitive evaluation dimension, the emotional response dimension and 0(t=4.069, P<0.01; t=2.925, P<0.01). There was no statistically significant difference between the implicit stigma and the 0 in the behavioral tendency dimension(t=1.423, P=0.167). In the explicit stigma, the mercy dimension score(1.94±0.61) was lower than the median, and the difference was statistically significant(t=-12.286, P<0.01), while the scores of anger dimension(4.62±0.44) and fear dimension (4.55±0.31) were higher than the median(t=13.243, 3.200, both P<0.01). There were no significant differences in the values of implicit and external stigma among pre-intervention, education intervention and after contact(P>0.05). The correct rates of questions "Which of the following situations do you think are considered mentally unhealthy? " and "Which of the following disorders are mental illnesses" (42±13)%, (54±13)%) increased after receiving educational intervention ((49±12)%, (64±13)%), the difference was statistically significant (F=3.682, P<0.05; F=3.576, P<0.05). Conclusion College students have implicit mental illness stigma, educational and contact intervention strategies can help improve college students' understanding of relevant knowledge, and cannot improve the level of implicit stigma of college students on mental illness.

OBJECTIVETo study the risk factor of perioperative complication in gastric cancer patients with radical therapy and its influence on prognosis.

METHODSClinical, pathological and follow-up data of 1 148 gastric cancer patients undergoing radical gastrectomy at Tianjin Medical University Affiliated Tumor Hospital between January 2009 and August 2011 were retrospectively collected. Pearson 2 test and Logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the risk factor of perioperative complication. Cox regression analysis was used to evaluate the influence of perioperative complications on the prognosis in patients after radical gastrectomy. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was applied to calculate the survival.

RESULTSOf 1 148 patients, 851 were male, 297 were female, age ranged from 19 to 89 (average 59.9) years. Perioperative complication occurred in 312 cases (27.2%), including 140 cases of pulmonary infection and 53 cases of abdominal infection. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that ≥65 years old (OR:0.736, 95%CI: 0.558 to 0.971, P=0.030), serum albumin less than 35 g/L(OR:2.626, 95%CI: 1.479 to 4.665, P=0.001), Borrmann type IIII((OR: 0.748, 95%CI: 0.610 to 0.917, P=0.005), tumor site at upper 1/3 of stomach (OR:1.326, 95%CI:1.167 to 1.506, P=0.000), combined organ resection(OR:0.624, 95%CI:0.428 to 0.909, P=0.014) were independent risk factors of perioperative complication. Tumor site at upper 1/3 of stomach (OR:1.649, 95%CI: 1.368 to 1.988, P=0.000), ≥65 years old (OR:0.548, 95%CI:0.379 to 0.792, P=0.001), without intraoperative chemotherapy (OR:1.671, 95%CI:1.146 to 2.437, P=0.008) were independent risk factors of perioperative pulmonary infection; Borrmann type IIII((OR:0.576, 95%CI:0.369 to 0.900, P=0.015), with intraoperative chemotherapy (OR:0.431, 95%CI:0.230 to 0.810, P=0.009), intraoperative blood loss ≥400 ml(OR:0.411, 95%CI:0.176 to 0.959, P=0.040) and combined organ resection (OR:0.412, 95%CI:0.215 to 0.789, P=0.008) were independent risk factors of perioperative intraperitoneal infection. Cox regression analysis revealed that without intraoperative chemotherapy, proximal subtotal or total gastrectomy, TNM stage III(, N3 stage lymph node metastasis, positive soft tissue outside lymph node, combined organ resection and organ failure were independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of gastric cancer patients after radical resection (all P<0.05), however the perioperative complication was not independent risk factor affecting the prognosis (P=0.259). The median survival time was 35 months, and 5-year survival rate was around 38.7%. The median survival time of gastric cancer patients with operative complications and without complications were 28.0 and 36.5 months, and the 5-year survival rates were 37.2% and 39.3%, whose difference was not statistically significant (P=0.259).

CONCLUSIONThere is a higher risk of perioperative complication in those gastric cancer patients with old age, preoperative low serum albumin level, tumor site at upper 1/3 of stomach, Borrmann type IIII(, intraoperative combined organ resection, while the perioperative complication has no significant effects on the long-term survival.
