Pulmonary fibrosis， chronic obstructive pulmonary disease， acute lung injury， asthma， and infectious pneumonia are common pulmonary inflammatory diseases worldwide. There is evidence that mitochondria produce a large amount of reactive oxygen species （ROS） when stimulated by inflammation， leading to oxidative stress that affects the onset and progression of pulmonary inflammatory diseases. With in-depth research， traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） has made significant progress in the treatment of pulmonary inflammatory diseases. An increasing amount of evidence indicates that single TCM and their active components， as well as TCM compound formulas， can improve mitochondrial oxidative stress status through multi-target and multi-pathway mechanisms， thereby effectively treating pulmonary inflammatory diseases. Currently， there is a lack of systematic review and summary of TCM research in this field both domestically and internationally. Therefore， this article aims to summarize and conclude the mechanisms by which TCM regulates mitochondrial oxidative stress to intervene in pulmonary inflammatory diseases， providing a scientific basis for its clinical application and offering new ideas and references for in-depth research on the prevention and treatment of pulmonary inflammatory diseases with TCM.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effect of orbital fat releasing and repositioning through supra-suborbicularis oculi fat (SOOF) in lower eyelid blepharoplasty.Methods:The authors retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of patients who received lower eyelid blepharoplasty in the Department of Plastic Surgery, Beijing Tsinghua Changgung Hospital from January 2017 to January 2023. Lower eyelid blepharoplasty with orbital fat releasing and repositioning through supra-SOOF was performed. The tear trough ligament and orbicularis retaining ligament were released between the orbicularis oculi muscle and SOOF via skin approach. Orbital septal fat was released to this space, lateral fat flap was fixed to the SOOF capsule, medial fat flap was fixed to the superficial fascia of the levator labii superioris muscle, orbital septum was repositioned, and lateral canthus was suspended. After the operation, lower eyelid morphology and complications were evaluated.Results:A total of 58 patients were enrolled, including 8 males and 50 females with the age of (49.8 ± 10.4) years (32 to 70 years). All patients had obvious lower eyelid bags on both sides, combining the tear trough deformity and (or) palabromalar groove. Fifty-seven patients were followed up for (29.1 ± 16.9) months (6-67 months). All patients were satisfied with the operation. The appearance of lower eyelid was greatly improved, with elimination of fat prominence and tear trough deformity. Mild lower eyelid ectropion was observed two cases 1 week after the operation, and were relieved by moderate massage 2 weeks postoperatively. In one case, mild lower eyelid retraction was observed 1 month postoperatively, with no complaint of discomfort or further treatments. Bulbar conjunctival hemorrhage occurred in 1 case and recovered without further interventions.Conclusion:Lower eyelid blepharoplasty with orbital fat releasing and reposting through supra-SOOF can effectively release the tear trough ligament and the orbicularis retaining ligament, with stronger fat fixation and less surgical difficulty. After the operation, eyelid contour was flat and tight with fewer complications and higher patient satisfaction.

Objective To carry out carrier screening for spinal muscular atrophy(SMA)in 3 302 preg-nant women from Xinjiang region and preliminarily determine the SMA carrier frequency among pregnant women in the region.Methods A total of 29 089 pregnant women who underwent prenatal visits at this hos-pital from April 2020 to February 2023 were educated,of whom 3 302 were received SMA carrier screening.SMA carriers were screened by detecting the copy numbers of SMN1 exons 7(E7)and 8(E8)using quantita-tive fluorescence PCR.Multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification(MLPA)was used for prenatal diag-nosis of high-risk fetuses in couples who were both SMA carriers.Results The acceptance rate of SMA carri-ers screening was 11.35％.Among the 3 302 pregnant women,58 were found to be SMA carriers,and the total carrier frequency was 1.76％(1/57).Among them,there were 45 cases of Han ethnicity,with a carrying fre-quency of 1.63％(1/61),and there were 13 cases of ethnic minorities,with a carrying frequency of 2.39％(1/42).Among the 58 carriers,46 spouses were received SMA screening,and the results showed that two couples were both SMA carriers.Further prenatal diagnosis was performed,and the results of MLPA indicated that the fetuses were all heterozygous deletions of SMN1 E7 and E8,suggesting continued pregnancy.Conclusion This study has preliminarily determined the SMA carrier frequency among pregnant women in Xinjiang region.SMA carrier screening in pregnant women and prenatal diagnosis of high-risk fetuses are of great significance for the prevention and control of birth defects.

Objective:To investigate the causality between intestinal flora and hypertrophic scars (HS) of human.Methods:This study was a study based on two-sample Mendelian randomization (TSMR) analysis. The data on intestinal flora ( n=18 473) and HS ( n=208 248) of human were obtained from the genome-wide association study database. Genetically variable genes at five levels (phylum, class, order, family, and genus) of known intestinal flora, i.e., single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), were extracted as instrumental variables for linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis. Human genotype-phenotype association analysis was performed using PhenoScanner V2 database to exclude SNPs unrelated to HS in intestinal flora and analyze whether the selected SNPs were weak instrumental variables. The causal relationship between intestinal flora SNPs and HS was analyzed through four methods of TSMR analysis, namely inverse variance weighted (IVW), MR-Egger regression, weighted median, and weighted mode. Scatter plots of significant results from the four aforementioned analysis methods were plotted to analyze the correlation between intestinal flora SNPs and HS. Both IVW test and MR-Egger regression test were used to assess the heterogeneity of intestinal flora SNPs, MR-Egger regression test and MR-PRESSO outlier test were used to assess the horizontal multiplicity of intestinal flora SNPs, and leave-one-out sensitivity analysis was used to determine whether HS was caused by a single SNP in the intestinal flora. Reverse TSMR analyses were performed for HS SNPs and genus Intestinimonas or genus Ruminococcus2, respectively, to detect whether there was reverse causality between them. Results:A total of 196 known intestinal flora, belonging to 9 phyla, 16 classes, 20 orders, 32 families, and 119 genera, were obtained, and multiple SNPs were obtained from each flora as instrumental variables. LD analysis showed that the SNPs of the intestinal flora were consistent with the hypothesis that genetic variation was strongly associated with exposure factors, except for rs1000888, rs12566247, and rs994794. Human genotype-phenotype association analysis showed that none of the selected SNPs after LD analysis was excluded and there were no weak instrumental variables. IVW, MR-Egger regression, weighted median, and weighted mode of TSMR analysis showed that both genus Intestinimonas and genus Ruminococcus2 were causally associated with HS. Among them, forest plots of IVW and MR-Egger regression analyses also showed that 16 SNPs (the same SNPs number of this genus below) of genus Intestinimonas and 15 SNPs (the same SNPs number of this genus below) of genus Ruminococcus2 were protective factors for HS. Further, IVW analysis showed that genus Intestinimonas SNPs (with odds ratio of 0.62, 95% confidence interval of 0.41-0.93, P<0.05) and genus Ruminococcus2 SNPs (with odds ratio of 0.62, 95% confidence interval of 0.40-0.97, P<0.05) were negatively correlated with the risk of HS. Scatter plots showed that SNPs of genus Intestinimonas and genus Ruminococcus2 were protective factors of HS. Both IVW test and MR-Egger regression test showed that SNPs of genus Intestinimonas (with Q values of 5.73 and 5.76, respectively, P>0.05) and genus Ruminococcus2 (with Q values of 13.67 and 15.61, respectively, P>0.05) were not heterogeneous. MR-Egger regression test showed that the SNPs of genus Intestinimonas and genus Ruminococcus2 had no horizontal multiplicity (with intercepts of 0.01 and 0.06, respectively, P>0.05); MR-PRESSO outlier test showed that the SNPs of genus Intestinimonas and genus Ruminococcus2 had no horizontal multiplicity ( P>0.05). Leave-one-out sensitivity analysis showed that no single intestinal flora SNP drove the occurrence of HS. Reverse TSMR analysis showed no reverse causality between HS SNPs and genus Intestinimonas or genus Ruminococcus2 (with odds ratios of 1.01 and 0.99, respectively, 95% confidence intervals of 0.97-1.06 and 0.96-1.04, respectively, P>0.05). Conclusions:There is a causal relationship between intestinal flora and HS of human, in which genus Intestinimonas and genus Ruminococcus2 have a certain effect on inhibiting HS.

Objective:To explore the application experience of autologous fat transplantation in improving the facial contour of young cosmetic patients.Methods:From October 2017 to October 2020, the plastic surgery department of Beijing Tsinghua Changgung Hospital admitted 10 young cosmetic patients with poor facial contours, including 1 male and 9 females, aged 18-35 years, with an average of 28 years. Autologous subcutaneous fat was harvested by liposuction and static purification and then injected into the areas with poor facial contour with an amount of 10%-30% over.Results:The facial contour of 10 young cosmetic patients was well improved, and there were no postoperative complications such as facial asymmetry, local uneven skin, skin infection and necrosis or fat embolism. 8 cases were filled once and 2 cases were filled twice. The patients were followed up for 6-24 months and the postoperative effect was good. The excellent and good rate evaluated by patients, plastic surgeon and the third party doctor was more than 80%.Conclusions:The use of autologous fat to improve the facial contour of young cosmetic patients is easy to operate with less trauma and good effect, which is worthy of promotion.

Objective:To retrospectively review the efficacy of enhanced epidural anesthesia in the patients undergoing cesarean section.Methods:The data from patients who underwent cesarean section in our hospital from August 2008 to December 2021 were retrospectively collected. The method of epidural anesthesia, drug dosage, onset time, blocking level, anesthesia effect, remedial medication, and complications related to the method were recorded. The main points of enhanced epidural anesthesia included: ① test negative pressure by rotating the epidural puncture needle in situ to determine the position of the needle tip; ② catheterization after administering local anesthetic through epidural puncture needle to assess the clinical application of this technique. A questionnaire survey was conducted in 134 anesthesiologists with qualifications for epidural procedures. The questionnaire addressed whether to perform routine needle rotation during epidural procedures, direction of needle rotation, and the percentage of the dosage of local anesthetic administered through puncture needle. Results:A total of 10 054 patients received epidural anesthesia (10 016 cases) and switched to general anesthesia because of poor epidural effect or intraoperative emergencies (38 cases) were enrolled. The consumption of local anesthetics for epidural anesthesia was 18 (15, 20) ml.There were 7 287 cases with block plane records, of which the ratio of the block level reached T 6-8 was 86.84%. The time from the beginning of anesthesia to skin incision was 25 (20, 30) min. Sixteen patients (0.159%) switched to general anesthesia because of poor epidural effect.Among 10 016 patients underwent epidural anesthesia, 925 patients (9.235%) received intravenous adjunctive drugs.No patients experienced total spinal anesthesia, 25 patients (0.248%) had epidural perforation due to puncture or needle rotation, and 4 cases (0.039%) local anesthetic intoxication, 3 cases (0.030%) postoperative nerve injury, and 142 patients (1.412%) requiring intervention with vasoactive drugs due to hemodynamic instability within 30 min after epidural administration. Questionnaire survey: The proportion of anesthesiologists rotating epidural puncture needles was 85.1%, and the proportion of anesthesiologists using epidural puncture needles to inject local anesthesia drugs with a dose greater than 50% of the total dose before catheterization was 84.2%. Conclusions:Enhanced epidural anesthesia can provide effective anesthesia for the patients undergoing cesarean section without increasing the risk of complications related to epidural procedures.

Objective:To explore an efficient method of practical teaching for ultrasonography.Methods:There were 41 five-year clinical medical students intending to learn ultrasonography in the spring semester of 2019. After completing common theory courses, they were divided into two groups randomly for practice courses, which consisted of two modules: Lecture and Hands-on. Lecture included case-based learning while Hands-on included pictures reading. Each group followed different sequence of modules. There were assessments of ultrasound theory, practice or the combination of both before, during and after practice courses.Results:The theory and practice ability of each group improved significantly after practice courses ( P < 0.05). Moreover, the group whose Hands-on module preceded Lecture module got the higher scores in the evaluation of the combined ability of theory and practice ( P < 0.05). Conclusion:The theory was as important as the practice during the clerkship of ultrasonography. The clinical practical teaching pattern that Hands-on precedes Lecture has achieved better teaching effects.

Objective To evaluate the applied value of septal cartilage combined with perpendicular plate of ethmoid bone graft in short nose plasty in Chinese people with insufficient septal cartilage.Methods From February 2015 to March 2017,thirty-five women with short noses underwent septal extension grafting in our institute.We used perpendicular plate of ethmoid bone to enhance the L-strut structure.An L-strut,comprising 0.6 cm segments of the caudal and dorsal cartilaginous septum,was left altered to harvest more cartilages for septal extension.The harvested septal cartilage was grafted on one side of the caudal septum.Then the alar cartilage was fixed at the end of the septal cartilage graft.Nasal lengths and nasolabial angles were measured pre-and postoperatively.Results The average nasal lengthening was (3.37±1.87) mm (P＜0.001).There was no infection,cerebral spinal fluid leakage,hemorrhage and other complications postoperatively.The average follow-up was 10 months (6 months to 2 years).After operation,33 patients were satisfied with the nasal contour,1 patient complained of high tip projection whereas one patient complained of low tip projection,and the dissatisfactions were corrected by revision surgeries.Conclusions Combining the septal cartilage with perpendicular plate of ethmoid bone graft presents an adequate nose lengthening and a decreased nostril show,even in patients with very little septal cartilage.With minimum complications,this novel technique provides promising clinical outcomes and high patient satisfaction.

Objective To explore the effects of case nursing combined with cognitive nursing intervention on general status and cognitive function in stroke patients with depression.Methods From October 2016 to April 2018, we selected 96 stroke patients with depression in Department of Neurology of He'nan Provincial People's Hospital. All of the patients were divided into observation group and control group with the random number table, 48 cases in each group. Control group received routine nursing. On the basis of that in control group, observation group applied case nursing combined with cognitive nursing intervention. The investigation was carried out with the Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE), Nurses' Observation Scale for Inpatient Evaluation (NOSIE), Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) and Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) before and after intervention. We also observed patients' abnormal body condition and hospital days.Results The incidence of abnormal body condition of patients in observation group was lower than that in control group with a statistical difference (P<0.05). After intervention, the scores of NOSIE of patients in observation group, the scores of personal neatness, interest and social competence were higher than those in control group; the scores of depression, irritability and slowness were lower than those in control group; the differences were all statistical (P<0.01). The incidence of cognitive disorder and the scores of HAMA as well as HAMD all decreased after intervention, and the improvements of observation group were statistically better than those of control group (P<0.05). There was statistical differences in the hospital days between two groups (P<0.05). Conclusions Case nursing combined with cognitive nursing intervention can improve depression, anxiety and cognitive function, and shorten hospital days among stroke patients with depression which is worth further promotion in clinical application.
