In recent years, the number of patients with vaginal relaxation has increased year by year, and the minimally invasive vaginal contraction has been carried out more and more widely in clinical practice, but the treatment normalization and safety have not been thoroughly studied. We summarized six cases of characteristics and treatment measures for patients with various complications after minimally invasive vaginal contraction surgery from September 2021 to December 2023 at Department of Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery, Peking Union Medical College Hospital. The patients' age ranged from 26 to 44 years. Two cases accepted vaginal contraction with embedded vaginal thread, and four accepted vaginal contraction with acellular allogenic dermis. One patient showed vaginal hyper-tightness, one patient showed subcutaneous suture nodules, two patients showed explosion of acellular allogenic dermis, and three patients showed vaginal infection symptoms such as yellow leucorrhea and peculiar smell. All patients had sexual pain and discomfort. One patient underwent vaginal orifice dilation, one patient underwent suture extraction and secondary vaginal contraction, one patient underwent acellular allogenic dermis extraction and immediate vaginal contraction, two patients underwent acellular allogenic dermis extraction and secondary vaginal contraction, and one patient underwent secondary vaginal contraction. The symptoms of all six patients were relieved after treatment. Despite the short operation time and fast postoperative recovery of minimally invasive vaginal contraction, there are still complications after surgery, causing physical and mental damage to patients. Plastic surgeons, therefore, should be cautious in the treatment process to avoid collateral damage, so that patients get the best treatment effect.

Malignant tumors seriously threaten human life and health. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy are the conventional methods for the clinical treatment of advanced tumors. The prognosis and efficacy are still far from satisfactory due to the radiotherapy has serious adverse effects on the body and the chemotherapy often causes problems such as tumor resistance and cell proliferationinhibition. Therefore， the search for new， safe， and effective anti-tumor drugs and the elucidation of their molecular mechanisms are effective measures for clinical treatment of tumors and improvement of patients' quality of life. Active ingredients derived from Chinese herbal medicines and natural products have gradually become a hot spot in the research and development of anti-tumor drugs due to their multi-target and multi-channel anti-tumor pharmacological activity characteristics and their advantages such as less adverse reaction on the body. Bruceine D is a class of tetracyclic triterpenoids extracted from the fruit of the Chinese herbal medicine Bruceae Fructus， with anti-inflammatory， anti-malarial， anti-parasitic， and other pharmacological activities， and its anti-tumor activity is particularly significant. Pharmacological studies have found that bruceine D can regulate various cellular physiological activities such as proliferation， apoptosis， invasion， and migration of lung cancer， liver cancer， pancreatic cancer， intestinal cancer， and other cancer cells by targeting different signaling pathways. Bruceine D can be used in combination with other chemotherapeutic drugs to improve the sensitivity of tumor cells to chemotherapeutic drugs， thereby reducing the adverse effect of chemotherapy. Clinical application practice has shown that Bruceae Fructus oil emulsion injection containing bruceine D has significant advantages in the efficacy and safety of tumor treatment. Although there are many studies on the antitumor pharmacological activity of bruceine D and its clinical efficacy is significant， the specific antitumor molecular mechanism of bruceine D is still unclear， and there is a lack of systematic review on the existing antitumor mechanism of bruceine D. Therefore， based on the research on bruceine D in China and abroad in recent years， this paper reviewed the anti-tumor effect and related molecular mechanisms of bruceine D from six aspects， namely， tumor cell proliferation， apoptosis， metastasis and invasion， glucose metabolism process， autophagy， and chemotherapy sensitivity. This paper is expected to provide a pharmacological basis and scientific reference for the antitumor drug development and clinical application of bruceine D.

Objective To explore the effect of KCNQ1OT1 gene knockout combined with bruceine D on the proliferation, migration, and invasion of breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells. Methods Cell Counting Kit-8, wound healing, and Transwell invasion assay were used to detect the effects of bruceine D and siKCNQ1OT1 on the viability, migration, and invasion of MDA-MB-231 cells. Effect of bruceine D and siKCNQ1OT1 on the expression of KCNQ1OT1 in MDA-MB-231 cells was detected by qRT-PCR. Western blot was used to detect the effect of bruceine D and siKCNQ1OT1 on the expression of EMT-related proteins and CDC42, p-MKK7, MKK7 proteins in MDA-MB-231 cells. Results Bruceine D and siKCNQ1OT1 could significantly inhibit the viability, migration, and invasion of MDA-MB-231 cells, and the inhibitory effect was enhanced when they were combined (all P < 0.05); bruceine D downregulated the expression of KCNQ1OT1 in MDA-MB-231 cells (all P < 0.05); bruceine D combined with siKCNQ1OT1 significantly decreased CDC42, p-MKK7, N-cadherin, and Vimentin expression in MDA-MB-231 cells and increased the expression of E-cadherin (all P < 0.05). Conclusion Bruceine D combined with siKCNQ1OT1 significantly inhibit the proliferation, migration, invasion, and EMT of human breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells, and its molecular mechanism may be related to the blocking of CDC42/MKK7 signaling pathway.

Objective    To verify the reliability of Anticlot Assistant, a patient self-management system for warfarin therapy assisted by artificial intelligence. Methods    It was a single-center, prospective cohort study. The eligible 34 participants were recruited consecutively between November 29, 2017 to September 27, 2018 and managed by warfarin therapy via Anticlot Assistant. The recommendations of Anticlot Assistant were examined and verified by the doctors to ensure the security. Medical records were exported from the the background management system. An univariate analysis compared the outcomes between accepted and overridden records and a logistic regression model was built to determine independent predictors of the outcomes. The research team analyzed 153 medical records, which were from 18 participants and were input by 19 doctors. There were 97 records with doctor accepting the suggestion and 56 records with doctor rejecting the suggestion . Results    When the doctors accepted the recommendations, the percentage of the next-test international normalized ratio (INR) in the therapeutic range was higher (64.95% vs. 44.64%, RR=2.298, 95%CI 1.173 to 4.499, P=0.014). The logistic regression analysis revealed that accepting the recommendations was an independent predictor for the next-test INR being in the therapeutic range after controlling potentially confounding factors (OR=2.446, 95%CI 1.103 to 5.423, P=0.028). Conclusion    The algorithm of Anticlot Assistant is reasonable and reliable.

Objective: To understand the epidemiologic features of the rabies in Xishuang banna prefecture of Yunnan province, China in 2008-2017 and the viral molecular-evolution characteristics. Methods: The data of rabies case questionnaire were collected. The brain tissue samples from mad dogs, suspicious sick dogs and human brain tissue, saliva and cerebrospinal fluid samples from rabies patients were collected in Xishuangbanna. Coding region of nucleoprotein and glycoprotein genes were amplified by RT-PCR and sequenced. Homology and phylogenetic analysis were performed using the relevant bioinformatics software. Results: A total of 62 cases of human rabies were occurred in 28 districts of the 3 counties, Xishuangbanna prefecture in 2008-2017. Of them, 37 cases in Jinghong county, 15 in Menghai county and 10 in Mengla county. In which 48 cases were bitten by domestic dogs (77.42%), 11 cases were bitten by wild dogs (17.74%). Rabies case was occurred every year in the past decade. The seasonal incidence was not obvious. The majority of patients were aged from 30 to 59 years-old, with the youngest 1 year-old and the eldest 91 year-old. The male to female ratio was 1.70∶1, most cases were farmers. The nucleotide sequences of nucleoprotein gene of 9 virus strains (7 from Jinghong, 1 from Menghai and 1 from Mengla) were obtained from the samples of dogs and patients. Homology and phylogenetic analyses indicated that the 5 strains belonged to clade China-Ⅰ, 3 clade China-Ⅱ and 1 clade China-Ⅵ. The nucleotide sequences of glycoprotein gene of 5 virus strains (3 from Jinghong, 1 from Menghai and 1 from Mengla) were obtained from these positive samples, and all were clade China-Ⅰ, it is same with nucleoprotein genes analysis result from these 5 virus strains. These China-Ⅰ and China-Ⅱ strains from Xishuangbanna have a closer genetic relationship with same clade strains isolated from Pu’er and other prefectures of Yunnan province as well as Sichuan, Guizhou and Guangxi. The China-Ⅵ strain from Xishuangbanna share high homology and genetic relationship with China-Ⅵ strains isolated from southwestern Yunnan and neighbouring countries such as Myanmar, Laos and Vietnam in recent years. Conclusions In Xishuangbanna, rabies mainly occurred in rural area and domestic dog was the main source of transmission. These RABV clades China-Ⅰ, China-Ⅱ and China-Ⅵ were found in this region and the China-Ⅰ was principal clade. The transmission source of China-Ⅰ and China-Ⅱ were from adjacent areas in the province and China-Ⅵ was from Myanmar and Laos.

Objective To analyze the imaging features of solid pseudopapillary neoplasm of pancreas (SPN) in children, and to improve the awareness of the disease. Methods From January 2007 to December 2016, 12 patients with SPN proven pathologically were enrolled in the study,of whom 12 cases underwent CT scanning and 3 cases underwent MRI scanning. The imaging data of SPN were analyzed retrospectively. The tumor parameters included the location, size, shape, margin, capsule, form, inhancement degree, and presence of calcification, biliary obstruction, surrounding, ascites, lymph node metastasis, as well as distant metastasis, which were comparative analyzed with that of pathology. Results CT showed that 3 cases were located in the head of pancreas,7 cases were located in the body/tail of pancreas, and 2 cases were ectopic. Twelve cases were circular tumors, the diameter of which ranged from 28—76 mm (median diameter 48 mm). Capsules were showed in 10 cases, calcification was seen in 4 cases and hemorrhage was seen in 1 case. Three cases were solid, 8 cases were solid and cystic mixed,and 1 case was cystic. The tumors were heterogeneous, and the solid portion of SPN was moderately to obviously enhanced gradually whereas the cystic part remained unenhanced. Nine cases showed that the tumors growed to the outside of pancreas,in which 4 cases covered by the normal pancreas tissue, 1 case located inside of the pancreas. One case caused biliary obstruction and the collateral circulation of splenic arteriovenous was established in 2 cases due to tumor compressed. Ascites was seen in 2 cases. MRI showed that the cystic components of tumor in 3 cases showed low signal in T1WI and high signal in T2WI, with no enhancement. The solid components of the tumor showed equal signal in T1WI and slightly higher signal in T2WI, with obvious enhancement. Capsules were showed in 3 cases with low signal in T1WI and T2WI, which were obviously enhanced in 2 cases and without enhancement in 1 case;hemorrhage was showed high signal in T1WI in 1 case. No lymph node metastasis and distance metastasis were observed in 12 cases. Conclusions The characteristic imaging findings of SPN in children are boundary clear, capsules, calcification, circular pancreas tumors, which grow to the outside of pancreas, with varied degrees of hemorrhage and necrosis. The solid portion of SPN is moderately or obviously enhanced gradually.

Objective: To report a case who had cerebral hemorrhage after facial injection with hyaluronic acid and to present the literature review about cerebrovascular infarction after cosmetic facial injection. Methods: Articles were collected from domestic and overseas database, with the key word of "filler injection, autologous fat, hyaluronic acid, stroke, cerebrovascular disease, cerebral embolism" from 1990 January to 2016 July. Information about researchers, patients, injection, complication, therapy and prognosis was collected. Results: The analysis shows cases are mostly reported by South Korea among the 18 articles in total (20 cases). 81% of injection material is autologous fat and the rest is hyaluronic acid.Glabella is mostly injected(n=9). Symptoms of cerebrovascular infarction are paralysis(n=15), disturbance of consciousness(n=7) and aphasia(n=5), whose onset were mostly within the operation(47%, n=8). 81% cases were combined with blindness. Infarction positions mostly were middle cerebral artery(n=14), anterior cerebral artery(n=6), frontal lobe(n=6)and parietal lobe(n=5). Meanwhile, there were three cases combined with cerebral hemorrhage including the case we reported in this article. Blind patients had poor prognosis while the other neurologic symptoms mostly could be improved. Conclusions Cerebrovascular infarction is a rarely severe complication of cosmetic facial injection, which we should pay close attention to.

Three new lignan glucosides, baicalensinosides A-C (1-3), were isolated from the roots of Scutellaria baicalensis. The structural elucidation was achieved by in-depth spectroscopic examinations and qualitative chemical test. Structurally, these compounds belong to the 3,4-dibenzyltetrahydrofuran-type lignan glycoside with a mono-hydroxyl substitution at the 7'-position of benzylidene group on the numbering system of lignans being one of their shared critical features. The anti-osteoporotic activity of the isolated compounds was assessed in an in vitro osteoprotegerin (OPG) transcriptional activity assay using dual luciferase reporter detection. At 10 μmol/L, compounds 1-3 increased the relative activating ratio of OPG transcription to 1.83, 0.84 and 0.98 times that of the control group, respectively.

Objective:To investigate the expression and it's clinical significance of Survivin and Bcl-2 in nasal squamous cell carcinoma (SNSCC). Method:The immunohistochemical Envision two step method was used to measure the expression of Survivin and Bcl-2 in 35 cases of SNSCC, 20 cases of normal inferior concha tissues. Result:The expression of Survivin in SNSCC was 88.6%, significantly higher than the normal inferior turbinate mucosal tissue expression of 0% (P<0.01). The expression of Bcl-2 in SNSCC was 71.4%, significantly higher than the normal inferior turbinate mucosal tissue expression of 25% (P<0.01). Expression of Bcl-2 was significantly higher in SNSCC than in normal tissue. The expression of Survivin was positively correlated with Bcl-2 expression (P<0.01). The higher the grade of tumor, the lower expressions of Survivin and Bcl-2. Conclusion:Survivin and Bcl-2 may play an promoting role in the development and progression process of SNSCC. Survivin may become a target spot of SNSCC gene therapy.
