Objective To investigate the efficacy of low-dose inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) in the treatment of severe hypoxemia after Sun’s operation. Methods The clinical data of patients undergoing Sun’s operation for acute Type A aortic dissection in our hospital from January 2020 to June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients who received conventional treatment before November 2021 were enrolled as a control group. After November 2021, iNO was used in our hospital, and the patients who received iNO as an iNO group. The preoperative clinical baseline data, perioperative clinical data and oxygenation index were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 54 patients were included in the control group, including 45 males and 9 females, with an average age of 53.0±10.9 years. A total of 27 patients were included in the iNO group, including 21 males and 6 females, with an average age of 52.0±10.6 years. The preoperative body mass index of the two groups was greater than 25 kg/m2, white blood cell count, C-reactive protein were significantly higher than normal level, but there was no statistical difference between the groups (P>0.05). There were no statistical differences in intraoperative data between the two groups (P>0.05). The iNO group had significantly shorter duration of mechanical ventilation, postoperative ICU stay, and postoperative hospital stay than the control group (P<0.001). After 12 h of iNO treatment, hypoxic condition improved obviously, oxygenation indices in 12 h, 24 h, 36 h,48 h, 60 h and 72 h in the iNO group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion The treatment of severe hypoxemia after Sun’s surgery with low-dose of iNO is safe and effective, can significantly improve oxygenation function, and has significant advantages in shortening ventilator use time, postoperative ICU stay and postoperative hospital stay, but it is not significant in changing postoperative mortality.

Objective To study the mechanical response of tibial prostheses and the distal tibial cancellous bone after implantation of radial and axial functionally graded materials(FGM)into the ankle joint.Methods Three FGM were used:titanium alloy-bioactive glass composite FGM(FGM-Ⅰ),titanium(Ti)alloy-ideal bone elastic composite FGM(FGM-Ⅱ),and Ti alloy-hydroxylapatite composite FGM(FGM-Ⅲ).A three-dimensional finite element model of total ankle arthroplasty(TAA)was established,and the simulation software ABAQUS was used for secondary development based on Fortra.By changing the volume fraction,the mechanical properties of the FGM tibial prosthesis can be adjusted both axially and radially.The stress distributions of the tibial prosthesis and cancellous bone after FGM axial and radial tibial component implantation in the standing position were analyzed.Results Compared with Ti alloy tibial prosthesis,three kinds of FGM could effectively reduce the stress concentration on the tibial prosthesis,and the overall effect of FGM-Ⅲ tibial prosthesis was better than that of FGM-Ⅰ and FGM-Ⅱ tibial prosthesis;the radial distribution of FGM could effectively reduce the maximum von Mises stress of the prosthesis.For the tibial cancellous bone,the three types of FGM radial tibial prostheses and FGM-Ⅲ axial tibial prostheses could effectively increase the distal stress,thus,relieving the stress shielding on the cancellous bone;the FGM-Ⅲ radial tibial prosthesis was the most effective in improving the stress level of the cancellous bone.Conclusions FGM-Ⅲ radial ankle prosthesis can effectively reduce the stress concentration phenomenon and the stress shielding effect on the prosthesis to prolong its life,with potential application prospects.

Objective:To classified the fluid location of of grade B and C postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) and propose processing flow.Methods:Data from 232 patients who underwent pancreatic surgery from January 2018 to December 2022 at Department of General Surgery & Hepato-billo-pancreatic,Beijing Hospital were collected retrospectively. Forty-six patients who suffered from grade B and C POPF underwent ultrasound-guided drainage. There were 32 males and 14 females, with an age of (60.2±13.7)years (range:18 to 85 years). The imaging data of postoperative CT were collected and the the fluid location was classified. Then analyzed the drainage status when patents were diagnosed as POPF. Machine learning was performed and a random forest model was applied to construct the relationship between intervention time and mortality. The optimal intervention time was calculated. The patients were then divided into early and late intervention groups and clinical data and outcomes were compared using the t test,Mann-Whitney U test, χ2 test or Fisher′s exact test between the two groups. Results:Based on the results of the random forest model, the optimal puncture time was within 5.38 days after the diagnosis of POPF. Based on the optimal time, 21 patients were subsumed into early intervention group and 25 patients were subsumed into late intervention group. The location of fluid collection was classified into four types: peripancreatic (32.7%,15/46), extra-pancreatic and epigastric (41.3%,19/46), extra-pancreatic and hypogastic (13.0%,6/46) and diffused (13.0%,6/46). The status of the drainage included normal in 10 patients (21.8%), displaced drain in 18 patients (39.1%) and drain removed or blocked in 18 patients (39.1%). The perioperative mortality rate was 19.0% (4/21) in the early intervention group and 8.0%(2/25) in the late. The late intervention group had significantly higher rates of positive drainage fluid cultures (88.0%(22/25) vs. 42.9%(10/21), χ2=10.584, P=0.001), secondary surgery (24.0%(6/25) vs. 0(0/21), P=0.025), and readmission within 90 days(32.0%(8/25) vs. 4.8%(1/21), χ2=5.381, P=0.020) than the early group, and a significantly longer postoperative hospital stay( M(IQR))(24(20)days vs. 39(53)days, Z=3.023, P=0.003). Conclusions:The location of the POPF fluid collection is classified into four types. Early radiological evaluation can detect abdominal effusion promptly,and early puncture and drainage will be beneficial in improving outcomes in these patents.

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.
