Objective:To explore the treatment methods and clinical efficacy of penetrating high-voltage electric burns to thoracoabdominal wall.Methods:This study was a retrospective observational study. From March 2020 to March 2023, six male patients with penetrating high-voltage electric burns to thoracoabdominal wall who met the inclusion criteria were hospitalized at West China Hospital of Sichuan University, aged 42 to 57 years. Among them, one patient had thoracoabdominal wall defects with perforation and necrosis of the gastric wall and diaphragm, two patients had thoracoabdominal wall defects with perforation and necrosis of the gastric wall alone, and three patients had abdominal wall defects with perforation and necrosis of the small intestine. In the emergency department, aesthetic plastic and burn surgery, general surgery, and/or thoracic surgery doctors jointly formulated an emergency surgery plan for the patients. Three patients with perforation and necrosis of the gastric wall underwent subtotal gastrectomy and anastomosis. One of them, who also had diaphragmatic perforation and necrosis, underwent resection of the necrotic diaphragm and repair. The other three patients with perforation and necrosis of the small intestine underwent resection and anastomosis of the necrotic intestinal segment. After debriding the thoracoabdominal wall wounds conservatively in stage Ⅰ and repairing the abdominal wall defects with greater omentum coverage, the thoracoabdominal wall wounds were treated with vacuum sealing drainage (VSD). Seven days later, a stage Ⅱ thorough debridement of the thoracoabdominal wall wounds was performed, and bovine acellular dermal matrix was transplanted onto the surface of the greater omentum and the surrounding skin wounds without skin coverage, and the VSD treatment of the thoracoabdominal wall wounds was continued. After 7 days, the VSD treatment was stopped, and after the fresh granulation tissue well developed in the wounds, a stage Ⅲ transplantation of meshed split-thickness skin graft from the lateral femur was performed to close the thoracoabdominal wall wounds, followed by continuing VSD treatment for another 7 days. Data were recorded including the status of patients' enteral nutrition recovery and occurrence of complications such as abdominal infection after stage Ⅰ surgery, the time from starting moist dressing change to the wound being ready for skin grafting after stage Ⅱ surgery, the microbiological culture of wound exudate samples and conditions of wound surrounding areas from starting moist dressing change to wound healing after stage Ⅱ surgery, skin graft survival, and wound healing time. Follow-up was carried out to observe the occurrence of gastrointestinal symptoms, abdominal wall hernia, scars, and functional disorders, etc.Results:All six patients resumed enteral nutrition on day 2 to 4 after stage Ⅰ surgery, with no occurrence of intestinal obstruction, anastomotic leakage, or abdominal infection. The time from starting moist dressing change to the wound being ready for skin grafting after stage Ⅱ surgery was 8 (6, 12) days. During the period from starting moist dressing change to wound healing after stage Ⅱ surgery, microbiological culture of wound exudate sample showed Enterobacter cloacae in one patient and Pseudomonas aeruginosa in another patient, while the remaining four patients had negative cultures; no patient developed wound edge inflammation. All grafted skin survived, and the wound healing time was 38 (30, 46) days. During follow-up from 12 to 36 months after stage Ⅲ surgery, patients had no intractable constipation or intestinal obstruction symptoms, no obvious local tissue herniation requiring surgical treatment, no scar ulceration, and no functional disorders. Conclusions:For penetrating high-voltage electric burns to thoracoabdominal wall, a sequential three-stage surgical treatment plan under a multidisciplinary team collaboration model can effectively protect organ function and control wound infection. Long-term follow-up shows good gastrointestinal function and thoracoabdominal wall appearance. This method is highly reproducible and effective, which is suitable for clinical promotion and use.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of anterolateral thigh perforator flap (ALTPF) combined with transfer of fascia lata in reconstruction of complex tissue defects of hand and foot.Methods:From July 2021 to October 2023, 9 patients with complex tissue defects of hand and foot were treated with ALTPF combined with fascia lata in the Department of Orthopaedic Microsurgical Repair and Reconstruction of Fuyang People's Hospital Affiliated to Anhui Medical University. There were 2 males and 7 females with an average age of 28.1 (range, 4-65) years old. Three patients had extensor tendon defects in 6 digits of dorsal hands, 5 had extensor tendon defect in 10 toes of dorsal foot, 1 had a defect of anterior tibial tendon and 1 had Achilles tendon defect in posterior ankles. The sizes of soft tissue defect ranged from 8.0 cm×6.0 cm to 15.0 cm×10.0 cm, and the lengths of tendon defect ranged from 6.0 to 13.0 cm. Preoperative Doppler ultrasound was used to locate the distribution of perforating branches in the anterolateral thigh region. According to the characteristics of wound, ALTPFs and fascia lata were designed and harvested. Fascia lata with an appropriate size of 1.5 cm×8.0 cm-4.5 cm×15.0 cm were taken to bridge the defects of the tendon and the Achilles tendon. The wounds were reconstructed with flaps sized 9.0 cm×6.5 cm-18.0 cm×7.5 cm. Nine fascia lata donor sites and 8 flap donor sites were sutured directly. One donor site was treated with a skin graft of ipsilateral ilioinguinal region. The survival and complications of the flaps and donor sites were observed through outpatient follow-up visits, WeChat reviews and home visits, etc. The hand function was assessed according to the Evaluation Standard of Upper Limb Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association, and the foot and ankle function was assessed according to the Mazur score standard of joint range of motion and motor function.Results:All patients were included in follow-up for 4-24 (mean, 13.4) months with complete clinical data being collected. All 9 ALTPFs survived and healed primarily. A linear scar left in donor sites in 8 patients, and mild lamellar scar at skin graft in 1 patient. Texture and colour of the flaps were similar to the surrounding tissue without secondary flap thinning surgery. Combined with postoperative rehabilitation training, satisfactory function recoveries were achieved. Hand function of 3 patients were evaluated according to Evaluation Standard of Upper Limb Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association, 2 patients were excellent and 1 was good. Ankle and foot functions in 6 patients were evaluated according to the range of motion of ankle and foot and Mazur score standard for motor function, 4 patients were excellent and 2 were good.Conclusion:ALTPF combined with fascia lata transfer can reconstruct the complex tissue defects of hand and foot. Of which, 1 donor site can meet the requirements of 2 types of tissues reconstruction at the same time, and with minimal damage to the donor site as well as an precise reconstruction of the recipient site. It avoids staged surgery, shortens the treatment time and reduces the cost of treatment.

Objective:To investigate the current situation of health emergency response literacy among emergency nurses, analyze the potential profile of emergency nurses′ health emergency response literacy and explore the influencing factors of different categories, so as to provide reference for formulating targeted and specific training intervention programs.Methods:From September to October 2022, 386 emergency nurses from 5 tertiary A-level hospitals in Shandong Province were selected as the research objects by convenient sampling method. A cross-sectional survey was conducted by using the general information questionnaire, the Literacy Self-assessment Scale of Public Health Emergency Response In Nurses, the Chinese version of Modified Self-leadership Questionnaire, and Nurse Perceived Professional Value Scale. The latent profile analysis was carried out with the results of 3 explicit indexes of the Literacy Self-assessment Scale of Public Health Emergency Response In Nurses. At the same time, the influencing factors of different latent profiles of health emergency literacy were explored by univariate analysis and ordered multi-classification Logistic regression.Results:The health emergency literacy of emergency department nurses was divided into three latent profiles: high health emergency literacy type accounting for 45.4% (175/386), medium health emergency literacy type accounting for 41.5% (160/386), and low health emergency literacy type accounting for 13.1% (51/386). Ordinal Logistic regression showed that the main emergency work post was pre hospital first aid, participated in public health emergency rescue operations, self leadership, and professional value were protective factors of health emergency literacy (all P<0.05). Age≤25 years old and junior college degree were risk factors of health emergency literacy (both P<0.05). Conclusions:Nursing managers can implement personalized training and intervention strategies according to different demographic characteristics of the health emergency literacy of emergency nurses, develop self leadership improvement plans from individual and organizational factors, and actively cultivate their sense of professional value, in order to comprehensively improve the health emergency literacy of emergency nurses.

Objective:To report embryonic testicular regression syndrome(ETRS) caused by DHX37 heterozygous variant for the first time in China and summarize the clinical manifestations of ETRS as to improve the understanding of doctors for this disease.Methods:The clinical data and whole exome sequencing results of five cases of ETRS from Shenzhen Children′s Hospital were collected. The reported cases of DHX37 heterozygous variant were reviewed.Results:Five patients with ETRS visited the doctors at the age of 2 months to 5 years and 5 months. Three patients raised as males came to hospital due to virilition and 2 female patients visited a doctor due to clitoral hypertrophy. No uterus was detected by ultrasound in all patients. The gonadal pathologies from 4 cases displayed no testicular tissue or gonadal dysgenesis, complicated with gonadoblastoma in one case. The genetic testing revealed that the heterozygous variant(c.923G>A, p. R308Q) in DHX37 was found in 2 cases, without variant in other 3 cases. According to the review, ETRS and 46, XY gonadal dysgenesis due to DHX37 herozygous variant was firstly reported in 2019. A total of 40 cases, including 21 cases of ETRS, presented with the virilition or female phenotype, with the disappearance of testicular tissue as the main pathologies. There is no report in China.Conclusion:The article summarized the clinical manifestations and whole exome sequencing results of 5 patients with ETRS, among which two cases were caused by DHX37 variants and one was complicated with gonadoblastoma.

Objective:To explore the value of metagenomics next generation sequencing of cerebrospinal fluid in the diagnosis test of the pathogen of neurobrucellosis.Methods:Medical records of neurobrucellosis patients who were admitted to Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University from May 2017 to February 2021 were reviewed. Seven patients who underwent cerebrospinal fluid metagenomics next generation sequencing were enrolled. Their clinical characteristics, cerebrospinal fluid results, serological and pathogenic results were analyzed.Results:Among the seven neurobrucellosis patients, including five males and two females, the age was from 21 to 49 [38 (24, 47)] years. Three patients had a history of exposure to cattle and sheep. The duration from onset to diagnosis was 2 to 30 [12 (5, 18)] months. The main neurological manifestations were headache for seven patients, loss of hearing for three patients, paralysis for four patients and urinary and fecal dysfunction for four patients. The blood tests showed that the rose bengal test was positive in three of seven patients, Brucella serum agglutination test was positive in four of six patients, and the blood culture was negative in four patients. The cerebrospinal fluid tests showed that rose bengal test was positive in one of five patients, Brucella serum agglutination test was positive in two of four patients, and the cerebrospinal fluid culture was positive in two of five patients. Cerebrospinal fluid metagenomics next generation sequencing was positive for Brucella in five patients.Conclusions:Comparing with the cerebrospinal fluid Brucella serum agglutination test and cerebrospinal fluid culture, cerebrospinal fluid metagenomics next generation sequencing is sensitive to the diagnosis of neurobrucellosis. It is recommended to perform cerebrospinal fluid metagenomics next generation sequencing in patients with clinically suspected neurobrucellosis or central nervous system infections of which the pathogen cannot be confirmed.

Changes in nuclear morphology are common in malignant tumors, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. Lamins is involved in supporting nuclear structure, and the expression of Lamins is the molecular basis for nuclear morphological changes during tumor progression. In recent years, the research on the relationship between Lamins and malignant tumors has made great progress. Lamins is of great value in the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of various malignant tumors.

With the increasing cost of drug development and clinical trials, it is of great value to make full use of all kinds of data to improve the efficiency of drug development and to provide valid information for medication guidelines. Model-based meta-analysis (MBMA) combines mathematical models with meta-analysis to integrate information from multiple sources (preclinical and clinical data, etc.) and multiple dimensions (targets/mechanisms, pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics, diseases/indications, populations, regimens, biomarkers/efficacy/safety, etc.), which not only provides decision-making for all key points of drug development, but also provides effective information for rational drug use and cost-effectiveness analysis. The classical meta-analysis requires high homogeneity of the data, while MBMA can combine and analyze the heterogeneous data of different doses, different time courses, and different populations through modeling, so as to quantify the dose-effect relationship, time-effect relationship, and the relevant impact factors, and thus the efficacy or safety features at the level of dose, time and covariable that have not been involved in previous studies. Although the modeling and simulation methods of MBMA are similar to population pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (Pop PK/PD), compared with Pop PK/PD, the advantage of MBMA is that it can make full use of literature data, which not only improves the strength of evidence, but also can answer the questions that have not been proved or can not be answered by a single study. At present, MBMA has become one of the important methods in the strategy of model-informed drug development (MIDD). This paper will focus on the application value, data analysis plan, data acquisition and processing, data analysis and reporting of MBMA, in order to provide reference for the application of MBMA in drug development and clinical practice.

Background: Histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3), which is expressed in liver, muscle and adipose tissue, is closely related to fat metabolism. Furthermore, HDAC3 expressed in intestinal epithelial cells is a critical factor that regulates host-commensal flora relationship and maintains intestinal homeostasis. Aims: To investigate the relationship between HDAC3 expression in terminal ileum and obesity and intestinal flora. Methods: Eight SPF C57BL/6 mice and eight germ-free C57BL/6 mice aged six weeks were randomly placed on a standard chow or a high-fat chow, respectively, for 5 weeks. Changes in body weight were recorded weekly, and the terminal ileum was obtained for detection of HDAC3 protein and mRNA expressions by immunohistochemistry and real-time PCR. Results: Increase of body weight of mice in SPF high-fat diet group was much more than that in SPF normal diet group (P<0.05). Meanwhile, HDAC3 protein and mRNA expressions in terminal ileum in SPF high-fat diet group was significantly higher than those in SPF normal diet group (P<0.05). On the other hand, whether fed with high-fat diet or normal diet, no significant change of body weight occurred in germ-free mice during the 5-week feeding (P>0.05). No significant differences were found in HDAC3 protein and mRNA expressions between germ-free high-fat diet group and germ-free normal diet group (P>0.05). Conclusions: Expression of HDAC3 in terminal ileum might be regulated by intestinal flora and participates in the occurrence of obesity.
