Objective:To investigate the clinical safety and efficacy of robot-assisted laparoscopic ventral onlay lingual mucosal graft ureteroplasty for ureteral stricture.Methods:The clinical data of 6 patients with ureteral stricture admitted to the Guizhou Provincial People's Hospital from December 2020 to August 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 3 males and 3 females, with an average age of (40.2±11.5) years old. The status of ureteral stricture and hydronephrosis was measured by ultrasonography, CT urography and ureteral retrograde angiography. There were 2 cases of left ureteral stricture and 4 cases of right ureteral stricture, including 4 cases of upper segment stricture and 2 cases of middle segment stricture. The separation of the renal pelvis on the affected side was 3.2 (2.1, 4.2) cm. The length of ureteral stricture was 3.8 (2.5, 4.3) (1.0-5.0) cm, and the preoperative blood creatinine was 90(71, 97)μmol/L. Robot-assisted laparoscopic ventral onlay lingual mucosal graft ureteroplasty was performed in all cases under general anesthesia. The strictured ureter segment was separated and longitudinally cut during the operation. The lingual mucosal grafts 2.5-5.0 cm in length and 1.0-1.5 cm in width was cut according to the stricture. Then the lingual mucosal grafts were harvested and placed in the strictured ureter as a ventral onlay. One double J tube was placed in the affected side in all cases during operation. The perioperative outcomes and complications were analyzed. The blood creatinine and renal pelvis separation on the affected side after surgery were compared with the preoperation.Results:All the surgeries were successfully completed. The average operative time was (190.8 ± 59.0) min, median blood loss was 40 (20, 63) ml, postoperative indwelling time of the drainage tube was 6 (4, 6) days, gastrointestinal function recovery time was 3 (2, 3) days, postoperative hospital stay was 6 (6, 7) days. The patients had clear pronunciation and lingual incision recovered 1 week post-operatively. The urine tube was removed 2 weeks after surgery, and the double J tube was removed 8 (6, 10) weeks post-operatively. Radiological examination revealed significant difference in hydronephrosis on the affected side 3 months post-operatively compared with the preoperation, and the separation of the renal pelvis on the affected side was 1.2 (1.2, 1.4) cm after surgery. The blood creatinine was 79(71, 104)μmol/L at 3 month after surgery, which was also improved compared with preoperative.Conclusions:Robot-assisted laparoscopic ventral onlay lingual mucosal graft ureteroplasty is a feasible and safe option for the treatment of ureteral stricture with less trauma, rapid recovery, and less complications.

ObjectiveTo investigate the contamination status of Staphylococcus aureus in food and the presence of enterotoxin genes in Jiading District, Shanghai, and to provide a basis for the prevention and treatment of foodborne Staphylococcus aureus disease. MethodsFrom 2021 to 2023, 15 types of food were sampled for S. aureus testing, and the presence of five enterotoxin genes, including sea⁃see, was tested in the strains. ResultsOut of 705 food samples, 88 (12.48%) were positive for S. aureus. S. aureus was detected in 12 of the 15 food types, with the three food types with the highest positive rates being cold noodles (45.00%), raw poultry (26.25%), and vegetable salads (20.00%). The enterotoxin gene carriage rate was 32.95% in food strains. The carriage rates for sea, seb, and sec were 7.95%, 12.50%, and 14.77%, respectively. Neither sed nor see was detected. The detection rate of strains carrying two types of enterotoxin genes was 2.27%. The enterotoxin carriage rates in strains from vegetables, beverages, and raw meat were 57.14%, 40.00%, and 30.00%, respectively. ConclusionThe S. aureus detection rate in food in Jiading District is much higher than the national average. The enterotoxin gene carriage rates are high, with food strains carrying sea, seb, and sec, with sec being the most prevalent. There is a need to enhance monitoring of S. aureus and enterotoxins, especially in high-risk foods such as noodles, vegetables, and non-packaged beverages.

Objective:To prepare the resiquimod-loaded lipid microbubbles R848-MBs, evaluate their enhanced ultrasound imaging and high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation effects, and explore their ability to improve tumor immune microenvironment synergize with HIFU.Methods:R848-MBs were prepared by the thin film hydration-mechanical shock method; The basic characteristics and safety of R848-MBs were detected, the HIFU controlled-release characteristics were verified in vitro and the drug metabolism and biological distribution were investigated in vivo. The ability of enhancing ultrasound imaging was observed in vitro and in vivo. To investigate the enhanced HIFU ablation effect of R848-MBs, six EMT6 tumor-bearing mice were randomly divided into HIFU group and R848-MBs+ HIFU group, three mice in each group, the changes in contrast average sound intensity before and after ablation in mouse tumor areas and the change of ultrasound image gray value in tumor area were evaluated, the tumor were resected to observe the coagulative necresis by TTC staining and HE staining. Forty-five tumor-bearing mice were randomly divided into control group, Free R848 group, HIFU group, Blank-MBs+ HIFU group and R848-MBs+ HIFU group, nine mice in each group. On the third day after treatment, 3 mice in each group were randomly selected and killed, to evaluate the ability of R848-MBs to improve tumor immune microenvironment synergize with HIFU. The expression level of CRT on the surface of tumor cells were detected by immunofluorescence staining, the proportion of mature DC in lymph nodes, spleen, and CD8 + T cells in spleen were detected by flow cytometry. The treatment effectiveness of each group( n=6) were evaluated by measuring tumor volume, observing and drawing survival curves. Results:The R848-MBs lipid microbubbles with good safety were successfully prepared, with a concentration of 2.58×10 9/ml, as spherical bubbles under optical microscope and laser confocal microscopy, in a particle size of (1.72±0.11)μm, at a surface potential of (-10.16±0.73)mV. The cumulative drug release was up to 83.44% after HIFU (90 W, 3 s) in vitro. The concentration of R848 in plasma decreased rapidly, and the drug concentration in tumor tissue of the R848-MBs+ HIFU group was higher than that of the R848 group 24 hours after treatment ( P<0.01). The ultrasound imaging of R848-MBs was significantly enhanced in contrast mode in vitro and in vivo; R848-MBs can significantly enhance the HIFU ablation effect, the contrast average sound intensity change in the tumor area before and after ablation in the R848MBs+ HIFU group was greater than that in the R848 group ( P<0.05), and the immediate ultrasound grayscale value change in the HIFU+ R848-MBs group was 46.34±3.21, which was significantly greater than that in the HIFU group (10.67±1.53), with statistical significance ( P<0.000 1). Coagulation necrosis was observed in tumor HE staining and TTC staining. The results of treatment efficacy in vivo showed that R848-MBs+ HIFU group had the strongest therapeutic effect, and R848-MBs combined with HIFU treatment could significantly prolong the survival period of mice compared with intravenous injection of free R848 ( P<0.01). Immunofluorescence staining and flow cytometry results showed an increase in the expression level of CRT on the surface of tumor tissue in the R848-MBs combined with HIFU group, and the percentage of mature DC in tumor draining lymph nodes (58.53±1.04)% were significantly higher than those in the HIFU group (37.56±2.13)% ( P<0.001), and the percentage of mature DC in the spleen (70.65±1.91)% were significantly higher than those in the HIFU group (36.46±3.89)% ( P<0.001), the percentage of CD8 + T cells in the spleen (27.46±3.04)% was significantly higher than that in the HIFU group (18.69±0.29)% ( P<0.01). Conclusions:The HIFU controlled-release lipid microbubbles R848-MBs can not only enhance the efficiency of HIFU ablation, but also improve the tumor immune microenvironment.
