Objective To investigate the effect of tritiated water on the immune system of zebrafish and its potential molecular mechanism. Methods Zebrafish embryos (2.5 to 3 hours post-fertilization [hpf]) were exposed to 3.7 × 10⁴ Bq/mL tritiated water (tritiated water group), and those exposed to E3 culture medium were used as the control group. The mortality rate, hatching rate, deformity rate, heart rate, body length, yolk sac area, neutrophil count in the tail, immune-related gene expression, and immune-related protein expression of zebrafish in the two groups were determined. Then transcriptome technology was used to further analyze the possible mechanism of tritiated water affecting the immune system of zebrafish. Results Compared with the control group, zebrafish at 72 hpf in the tritiated water group had no significant changes in the mortality rate, hatching rate, deformity rate, body length, and yolk sac area((t = 0.9045, 0.5000, 1.0000, 0.7238, 0.0337, P = 0.4169, 0.6433, 0.3739, 0.4785, 0.9735), but had significantly increased heart rate(t = 4.575，P = 0.002). At 4 days post-fertilization (dpf), the neutrophil count in the tail of zebrafish in the tritiated water group was significantly increased(t = 2.563，P = 0.0196), the mRNA expression of TNF-α was significantly decreased(t = 2.891, P = 0.045), the protein expression of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) was significantly increased(t = 3.848, P = 0.018), and the protein expression of NLRP3 was significantly decreased(t = 14.98, P = 0.001). At 7 dpf, the neutrophil count in the tail and the protein expression levels of NF-κB, NLRP3, and interleukin-1β were significantly decreased(t = 3.772, 7.048, 15.620, 4.423, P = 0.014, 0.002, 0.0001, 0.012). Transcriptome sequencing revealed that differentially expressed genes were mainly enriched in the “neutrophil activation” and “platelet activation pathways” at 4 dpf and in the “neutrophil apoptosis”, “ferroptosis”, and “necroptosis” pathways at 7 dpf. Conclusion Tritiated water exposure induces a temporally dynamic immune response in zebrafish, potentially affecting immune homeostasis by regulating neutrophil activation and apoptosis, as well as the expression of NF-κB and NLRP3.

Objective:To investigate the difference of adverse events in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who underwent on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (ONCABG) and off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG).Methods:The clinical data of COPD patients undergoing CABG surgery admitted to Beijing Anzhen Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University from January 2021 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. According to whether they received cardiopulmonary bypass or not, they were divided into ONCABG group (64 cases) and OPCABG group (154 cases). The preoperative and postoperative clinical data were analyzed. The whole group was divided into 4 subgroups (ON1、ON2、OP1、OP2) according to whether receiving cardiopulmonary bypass or not and FEV160% as the cut-off point, to investigate the difference of postoperative adverse events.Results:A total of 218 patients were included, ranging in age from 45 to 76 years old, with a mean age of (63.81±7.72) years, including 149 males (68.35%). There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative adverse events between the ONCABG and OPCABG groups ( P>0.05). In subgroup analysis, the incidence of postoperative pulmonary infection (72.73% vs. 45.65%, P<0.05) and postoperative atrial fibrillation (59.09% vs. 32.61%, P<0.05) was higher in ON1 (FEV1≤60% ONCABG, 22 cases) group than in OP1 (FEV1≤60% OPCABG, 46 cases) group. Conclusion:The incidence of postoperative pulmonary infection and atrial fibrillation in COPD patients with FEV1≤60% was higher in ONCABG than in OPCABG.

Objective:To explore the application of flipped classroom teaching in the standardized residency training of students in department of hepatic surgery from the perspective of production-oriented approach (POA) theory.Methods:Based on the implementation time of flipped classroom teaching (January 2017) from the perspective of POA theory in West China Hospital, 51 nursing students who were routinely trained in department of hepatic surgery before the implementation (January 2015 to January 2017) were included in the control group. After the implementation (January 2017 to January 2019), 51 nursing students under the residency training were included in the observation group. The changes of test scores, independent learning ability and professional awareness of the two groups of nursing students before and 6 months after the training were compared, and the teaching satisfaction after the training was recorded. SPSS 19.0 was performed for t test and chi-square test. Results:The total scores of the theoretical examination scores of the two groups of nursing students, the total scores of the clinical practice assessment scores, and the self-learning ability assessment scale for nursing college students (learning motivation, self-management ability, learning cooperation ability, information literacy) scores and total scores in each dimension were significantly higher than those before training, and the observation group was significantly higher than the control group ( P<0.05); the two groups of professional maturity scales (career goals, professional self-confidence, professional autonomy, professional value, dependence on relatives and friends, occupation reference) scores of all dimensions were significantly improved compared with those before the training, and the scores of the observation group (career goals, professional self-confidence, professional autonomy, professional value) were significantly higher than those of the control group during the same period ( P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the comparison between the two groups' dependence on relatives and friends and occupational reference scores ( P>0.05); the teaching satisfaction rate of nursing students in the observation group was 96.08%, which was significantly higher than that of the control group (82.35%). Conclusion:The application of flipped classroom teaching from the perspective of POA theory in the standardized residency training of department of hepatic surgery can significantly improve the autonomous learning ability of nursing students, which is conducive to the improvement of test scores and professional awareness, with high teaching satisfaction.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of preoperative 3D simulation on the evaluation of rhinoplasty.Methods:From December 2017 to March 2019, patients in the Department of Burn and Plastic Surgery of the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University were randomly selected as the research subjects. According to whether they had received 3D simulation before surgery, they were divided into the experimental group (after 3D simulation before comprehensive surgery) and the control group (without 3D simulation before comprehensive surgery).

Objective: To investigate the clinical effect of diced cartilage in correcting nasal alar base depression after cleft lip surgery. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in 15 patients of nasal deformity after lip surgery from January 2018 to January 2019. All the patients were taken from autologous costal cartilage to reconstruct the outline of nasal malformation, and the remaining autologous costal cartilage was cut into 0.5-1.0 mm pieces and filled into the basilar lacunar space of the nasal alar by the 1 ml syringe whose anterior needle nipples was removed. The effects of visual images before and after operation were compared and analyzed by Adobe Photoshop CS6 software. The patients were followed up for 6-15 months (mean 10months). The satisfaction and complications of the patients were investigated. Results: The nasal alar base was significantly elevated and the outline of the nasal deformity was improved in 15 patients after operation. The overall effect was satisfactory and no obvious complications were found. No obvious absorption was found in the follow-up. Conclusions The application of diced cartilage to correct the nasal alar base depression after cleft lip surgery was a feasible method with important clinical value. It advanced in taking good use of the remaining cartilage and reducing the damage to both the donor and recipient area.

Objective:To investigate the application of local free-style perforator flap in repairing gluteal bedsores.Methods:A retrospective study was performed. Date from 35 patients(20 males and 15 females, mean age 46 years old, range from 24-71) with gluteal bedsores between June 2017 and June 2019 were retrieved and reviewed by the Department of Burn and Plastic Surgery, Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University. Among these cases, 13 were paraplegia after trauma, 6 were paralysis after cerebral hemorrhage, 13 were chronic infection, and 3 were poor wound healing after tumor resection. The average defect size was 5.6 cm×5.0 cm(range from 2.0 cm×3.0 cm to 10.0 cm×5.0 cm). By following the concept of free-style perforator flap, the flap was designed near the wound according to the perforator location detected by Doppler before surgery, and the defects were recovered by the flaps by rotation or other method such as rotation. Or the perforator flap can be modified into dermis-fat flap and flipped 180° to recover the wound. After the surgery, the survival of the flap or the dermis-fat flap, wound healing, as well as the sense and motion function of buttock and lower limbs were observed and recorded.Results:21 cases were repaired by perforator flap and 14 cases were repaired by modified dermis-fat flap. The size of flap range from 3.0 cm×3.0 cm to 10.0 cm×7.0 cm. The follow-up time was 3-22 months(mean, 12 months). All perforator flaps and dermis-fat flaps survived. The appearance of buttock was pleasant and no recurrence of bedsores. The patients without paraplegia had no major sensory loss and pain. The function of gluteus maximus was basically normal, and the motor function of lower limb was also generally satisfactory.Conclusions:The local free-style perforator flap or modified dermis-fat flap has advantages including simple design and operation, reliable blood supply and minimal damage to the donor site. It is a better way to repair gluteal bedsores.
