Abstract
Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) present significant challenges due to their associated amputation rates, mortality, treatment complexity and excessive costs. Our earlier work introduced a wound surgical integrated treatment (WSIT) for DFUs, yielding promising outcomes. This study focuses on a specific WSIT protocol employing antibiotic-loaded bone cement (ALBC) in the first Stage, and free vastus lateralis muscle-sparing (VLMS) flaps and split-thickness skin grafts (STSGs) in the second stage to repair non-weight-bearing DFUs. From July 2021 to July 2023, seven DFU patients (aged 47-71 years) underwent this treatment. Demographic data, hospital stay and repair surgery times were collected. Histological and immunohistochemical analyses assessed angiogenesis, collagen deposition and inflammation. SF-36 questionnaire measured pre- and postoperative quality of life. Preoperative ultrasound Doppler showed that the peak blood flow velocity of the recipient area artery was significantly >30 cm/s (38.6 ± 6.8 cm/s) in all patients. Muscle flap sizes varied from 8 × 3.5 × 1 to 18 × 6 × 2 cm. The operation time of the repair surgery was 156.9 ± 15.08 minutes, and the hospital stay was 18.9 ± 3.3 days. Histological analysis proved that covering DFUs with ALBC induced membrane formation and increased collagen, neovascularization and M2 macrophages fraction while reducing M1 macrophages one. All grafts survived without amputation during a 7- to 24-month follow-up, during which SF-36 scores significantly improved. A combination of ALBC with free VLMS flaps and STSGs proved to be safe and effective for reconstructing non-weight-bearing DFUs. It rapidly controlled infection, enhanced life quality and foot function, and reduced hospitalization time. We advocate integrating this strategy into DFU treatment plans.

Abstract
The soft and hard tissue healing of open wounds in immediate implant placement are yet to be explored. The aim of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes of open wound healing using reactive soft tissue (RST) and absorbable collagen sponge (ACS). Forty implants placed immediately in posterior sockets were included; autologous RST was used in 20 and ACS substitute was used in 20. Soft tissue healing was primarily assessed through a novel scoring system and the evaluation of gingival recession. The horizontal bone width (HBW) and interproximal marginal bone level (MBL) were measured on radiographs to observe the hard tissue healing. No significant difference in total soft tissue healing score was observed at 2 weeks postoperatively. Notably, the ACS group showed better tissue colour (P = 0.016) but worse fibrous repair (P = 0.043) scores than the RST group. Gingival recession levels were comparable in the two groups, both before tooth extraction and after placement of the restoration. Regarding hard tissue, HBW and MBL changes showed no intergroup differences. Within the limitations of this study, both RST and ACS seemed effective for open wound closure, achieving ideal soft and hard tissue healing in immediate implant placement.

Abstract
PURPOSE Living with type 1 diabetes requires burdensome and complex daily diabetes self-management behaviors. This study aimed to determine the association between integrated behavior performance and HbA1c, while identifying the behavior with the most significant impact on HbA1c. METHODS A simple and feasible questionnaire was used to collect diabetes self-management behavior in patients with type 1 diabetes (n = 904). We assessed six dimensions of behavior performance: continuous glucose monitor (CGM) usage, frequent glucose testing, insulin pump usage, carbohydrate counting application, adjustment of insulin doses, and usage of apps for diabetes management. We evaluated the association between these behaviors and HbA1c. RESULTS In total, 21.3% of patients performed none of the allotted behavior, while 28.5% of patients had a total behavior score of 3 or more. 63.6% of patients with a behavior score ≥ 3 achieved HbA1c goal, contrasting with only 30.4% of patients with a behavior score of 0-1. There was a mean 0.54% ± 0.05% decrease in HbA1c for each 1-unit increase in total behavior score after adjustment for age, family education and diabetes duration. Each behavior was independently correlated with a lower HbA1c level, with CGM having the most significant effect on HbA1c levels. CONCLUSIONS Six optimal self-management behaviors, especially CGM usage, were associated with improved glycemic control, emphasizing the feasibility of implementing a simplified version of DSMES in the routine clinical care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Secondary lymphedema is a chronic, disabling disease impacting over 50% of patients with cancer and lacking effective pharmacological treatment even for early- to mid-disease stages. Metformin reportedly exerts anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic effects and is safe, with minimal side effects; We investigated the role of metformin in lymphedema mouse models and examined underlying molecular mechanisms. METHODS Male C57BL/6 mice (6-8-week-old; n=15/group) received metformin (300 mg/kg/day) by gavage on day 3 after lymphedema surgery; saline and sham groups were administered the same volume of saline. Hindlimb circumference and tail volume were monitored every two days. On day 28, samples were collected for histological assessment, western blotting, and reverse transcription-quantitative PCR analysis of inflammation, fibrosis, and AMPK expression. AMPK activity was assayed in patients with secondary lymphedema (ISL II) and controls following strict inclusion criteria. RESULTS Compared with the saline group, the metformin group exhibited hindlimb circumference and tail volume reduced by 469.70% and 305.18%, respectively. on day 28. Dermal thickness was reduced by 38.27% and 72.57% in the hindlimbs and tail, respectively. Metformin decreased CD4+ T cell infiltration by 19.73% and expression levels of interleukin (IL)-4, IL-13, IL-17, and transforming growth factor-β1. Additionally, it lowered collagen I deposition by 33.18%. Compared with the saline group, the number of lymphatic vessels increased by 229.96% in the metformin group. Both the saline group mice and patients with lymphedema showed reduced AMPK activity, while metformin increased p-AMPK expression by 106.12%. CONCLUSION Metformin alleviated inflammation and fibrosis and increased lymphangiogenesis in lymphedema mouse models by activating AMPK signaling.

Abstract
Li Shouxian, styled as Shanshu, was a medical doctor in the Qing Dynasty. His work Zhenjiu Yixue (Easy Study of Acupuncture and Moxibustion) has numerous versions, with the most refined one being the self-engraved edition from the third year of Jiaqing's reign, housed in the Jilin Province Library. While most content of the book was drawn from Zhenjiu Dacheng (Great Compendium of Acupuncture and Moxibustion), Li's condensation and arrangement of the material achieved the purpose of making it simple and easy to learn. The book has been widely spread and holds certain academic and historical value. This paper makes a textual research on Li's life, family, and his works, clarifies the content, structure and origin of the version of Zhenjiu Yixue and corrects errors in the version records of this book in the General Catalogue of Chinese Ancient Medical Books.

Abstract
METHODS Fourteen patients who experienced plantar heel pain and underwent plantar heel SVF-gel grafting between January 2019 and June 2020 were included in this retrospective study. Foot pain and disability were measured at the screening visit and at the 3-, 6-, and 12-month follow-up visits. The volume of the heel fat pad was measured by magnetic resonance imaging. RESULTS Four of the patients had bilateral plantar heel pain, and 10 patients had unilateral plantar heel pain. All patients showed significant improvements in pain and foot function at 3 months after SVF-gel grafting compared with the baseline, with the greatest improvement at 6 months and the effect lasting 1 year or more. In addition, the thickness of the heel fat pad was significantly greater than at baseline at 3 months, and the effect lasted for 1 year or more. CONCLUSION Stromal vascular fraction gel grafting is a safe, minimally invasive, and effective approach to treat plantar heel pain.

Abstract
Introduction: Owing to the need for liposuction and its unsuitability for allogeneic transplantation, the clinical application of stromal vascular fraction gel (SVF-gel) combined with fractional CO2 laser for scar treatment is limited. Adipose tissue extract (ATE), rich in cytokines and growth factors, offers a more convenient option for clinical practice as it can be easily prepared using purely physical methods and has low immunogenicity. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of ATE combined with fractional CO2 laser in the treatment of hypertrophic scars. Methods: ATE was prepared using discarded liposuction fluid from patients undergoing liposuction. A rabbit ear hypertrophic scar model was established and treated with ATE, fractional CO2 laser, or a combination. PBS was used as a control. The scar appearance and histological changes were observed. The immunohistochemistry method was used to evaluate the expression of α-SMA, while perilipin was detected using immunofluorescence. Additionally, the level of adipogenic signal C/EBPα and PPARγ mRNA was studied. Results: Following treatment, the volume of hypertrophic scar decreased, resulting in a softer texture and thinner dermis. Additionally, there was a decrease in the infiltration of inflammatory cells, and the collagen arrangement became looser and more regular, and the expression of α-SMA also decreased, with the combination of ATE and fractional laser showing the most significant improvement. Moreover, the combination group was found to promote subcutaneous fat regeneration and increase the expression of adipogenic signals C/EBPα and PPARγ. Conclusion: The combination of ATE and fractional CO2 laser treatment has been shown to inhibit the development of hypertrophic scars. This effect may be attributed to the enhancement of adipogenesis and decrease in collagen deposition.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic for classification of newly diagnosed diabetes patients and assess the application of the screening tests recommended by the 2022 Chinese Expert Consensus on Diabetes Classification. Methods: Retrospective case series study. The data from the electronic medical record system of patients with new-onset diabetes mellitus (within 1 year of disease onset) who attending the Diabetes Specialist Outpatient Clinic at the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2021 were collected for the analysis. Based on the consensus, patients were categorized according their age of onset, body mass index (BMI), and suspicion of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). The chi-square statistic was used to compare key classifier indicators, including C-peptide, islet autoantibodies, and genetic markers, in the subgroups. The diagnosis in suspected T1DM patients was also evaluated. The screening strategy recommended in the consensus was further assessed using a logistic regression model and the area under the receiver-operating curve (AUC). Results: A total of 3 384 patients with new-onset diabetes were included. The average age of disease onset was (46.3±13.9) years, and 61.0% (2 065/3 384) of the patients were male. The proportions of patients who completed C-peptide and glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody (GADA) tests were 36.6% (1 238/3 384) and 37.5% (1 269/3 384), respectively. There were no significant differences in C-peptide test results among the subgroups (all P>0.05). In contrast, the GADA detection rate was higher in patients with young age of onset (<30 years old), in those who were non-obese (BMI<24 kg/m2), and in those clinically suspected of T1DM (all P<0.05). According to the diagnostic pathway proposed by the consensus, only 57.4% (1 941/3 384) of patients could be subtyped. For a definitive diagnosis, the remaining patients needed completion of C-peptide, islet autoantibody, genetic testing, or follow-up. Furthermore, among patients with clinical features of suspected T1DM, the antibody positivity rate was higher than in non-suspected T1DM patients [24.5% (154/628) vs. 7.1% (46/646), P<0.001]. When the clinical features of suspected T1DM defined in the consensus were taken as independent variables and antibody positivity was considered the outcome variable in the logistic regression model, young onset, non-obese onset, and ketosis onset could enter the model. Based on AUC analysis, the accuracy of the diagnostic model was 0.77 (95%CI 0.73-0.81), suggesting that the clinical features of suspected T1DM in the consensus have good clinical diagnostic value for this patient subgroup. Conclusions: There was a significant discrepancy between the clinical practice of diabetes classification and the process recommended by the consensus, which was specifically reflected in the low proportions of both subtyping indicator testing and definitively subtyped diabetes patients. Attention should be pay to the classification diagnosis process proposed in the consensus and the clinical detection rate of key diabetes subtyping indicators such as C-peptide and islet autoantibodies for diabetes classification should be improved. Noteworthy, the screening strategy for T1DM proposed by the consensus showed good clinical application value.

Abstract
Human acellular amniotic membrane (HAAM) has emerged as a promising tool in the field of regenerative medicine, particularly for wound healing and tissue regeneration. HAAM provides a natural biological scaffold with low immunogenicity and good anti-infective and anti-scarring results. Despite its potential, the clinic application of HAAM faces challenges, particularly with respect to the preparation methods and its low mechanical strength. This review provides a comprehensive overview of HAAM, covering its preparation, sterilization, preclinical research, and clinical applications. This review also discusses promising decellularization and sterilization methods, such as Supercritical Carbon Dioxide (SC-CO2), and the need for further research into the regenerative mechanisms of HAAM. In addition, we discuss the potential of HAAM as a skin dressing and cell delivery system in preclinical research and clinical applications. Both the safety and effectiveness of HAAM have been validated by extensive research, which provides a robust foundation for its clinical application.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic refractory wounds easily relapse and seriously affect the patients' quality of life. Previous studies have shown that stromal vascular fraction gel (SVF-gel) significantly promotes the early healing of chronic wounds; however, the mechanisms of SVF-gel function per se remain unclear, and a long-term follow-up is lacking. This study aims to explore the mechanisms of SVF-gel promoting the healing of chronic wounds and follow up the long-term efficacy of SVF-gel. METHODS Autologous SVF-gel transplantation was performed in 20 patients with chronic wounds (from March 2016 to September 2019), and the size of the wound before and after SVF-gel transplantation was observed. The conditioned medium (CM) was harvested from SVF-gel under serum-free, serum-deprivation and 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) microenvironment in vitro, respectively. The concentration of the growth factors in the two kinds of gel-CM was tested, and their effects on the proliferation and migration of human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) were detected. RESULTS All patients had 100% wound closure eventually, and the average time to complete closure was 28.3 ± 9.7 days. The time of follow-up ranged from 2 to 6 years, and there was no wound recurrence. Interestingly, the concentrations of epidermal growth factor and transforming growth factor β1 of the CM were higher in serum-free and serum-deprivation condition than in 10% FBS microenvironment (p < 0.05). Correspondingly, the proliferation and migration ability of HDFs treated with gel-CM from serum-free condition were stronger than those treated with gel-CM from serum-deprivation (2% FBS) or 10% FBS microenvironment (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION These results indicate that it is safe, effective, and lasting in effect to treat chronic wounds with SVF-gel and mechanisms of action that include secreting various cytokines and promoting cell proliferation and migration ability.

Abstract
Objective To review the research progress of supraclavicular vascularized lymph node transfer (VLNT). Methods The research literature related to supraclavicular VLNT at home and abroad in recent years was extensively reviewed, and the anatomy of supraclavicular lymph nodes, clinical applications, and complications of supraclavicular VLNT were summarized. Results The supraclavicular lymph nodes are anatomically constant, located in the posterior cervical triangle zone, and the blood supply comes mainly from the transverse cervical artery. There are individual differences in the number of supraclavicular lymph nodes, and preoperative ultrasonography is helpful to clarify the number of lymph nodes. Clinical studies have shown that supraclavicular VLNT can relieve limb swelling, reduce the incidence of infection, and improve quality of life in patients with lymphedema. And the effectiveness of supraclavicular VLNT can be improved by combined with lymphovenous anastomosis, resection procedures, and liposuction. Conclusion There are a large number of supraclavicular lymph nodes, with abundant blood supply. It has been proven to be effective for any period of lymphedema, and the combined treatment is more effective. The more clinical studies are needed to clarify the effectiveness of supraclavicular VLNT alone or in combination, as well as the surgical approach and timing of the combined treatment.

Abstract
Triclosan (TCS) is a ubiquitous antimicrobial used in daily consumer products. Previous reports have shown that TCS could induce hepatotoxicity, endocrine disruption, disturbance on immune function and impaired thyroid function. Kidney is critical in the elimination of toxins, while the effects of TCS on kidney have not yet been well-characterized. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of TCS exposure on kidney function and the possible underlying mechanisms in mice. Male C57BL/6 mice were orally exposed to TCS with the doses of 10 and 100 mg/(kg•day) for 13 weeks. TCS was dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and diluted by corn oil for exposure. Corn oil containing DMSO was used as vehicle control. Serum and kidney tissues were collected for study. Biomarkers associated with kidney function, oxidative stress, inflammation and fibrosis were assessed. Our results showed that TCS could cause renal injury as was revealed by increased levels of renal function markers including serum creatinine, urea nitrogen and uric acid, as well as increased oxidative stress, pro-inflammatory cytokines and fibrotic markers in a dose dependent manner, which were more significantly in 100 mg/(kg•day) group. Mass spectrometry-based analysis of metabolites related with lipid metabolism demonstrated the occurrence of lipid accumulation and defective fatty acid oxidation in 100 mg/(kg•day) TCS-exposed mouse kidney. These processes might lead to lipotoxicity and energy depletion, thus resulting in kidney fibrosis and functional decline. Taken together, the present study demonstrated that TCS could induce lipid accumulation and fatty acid metabolism disturbance in mouse kidney, which might contribute to renal function impairment. The present study further widens our insights into the adverse effects of TCS.

Abstract
Background Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is frequently difficult to heal and finally leads to amputation, resulting in high mortality rate in diabetic patients. To date, effective and optimal therapies are still lacking. This study aims to investigate the efficacy of integrated surgical wound treatment (ISWT) mode on diabetic foot wound. Methods From January 2021 to December 2021, 13 diabetic foot patients with Wagner grade 3 to 4 were treated with ISWT mode, which combined TTT technique with debridement, induced membrane technique, vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) technique and skin grafting technique. The time of wound healing, the skin temperature at midpoint of dorsum of affected foot (T), visual analogue scale (VAS) score and ankle-brachial index (ABI) was measured before and after surgery. CTA examination of the lower extremity arteries was performed at the end of the cortex transport to evaluate the small arteriolar formation of the lower extremity. The complications occurred in each patient were recorded. Results 13 patients with age ranging from 45 to 66 years were followed up for 3 to 13 months. All patients healed completely without amputation being performed, no serious complications were found except for one case of nail channel infection. The mean healing time was 25.8 ± 7.8 days, with a range of 17 to 39 days. The mean time of carrying external fixation scaffolds and resuming walking was 71.8 ± 10.0 and 30.8 ± 9.1 days, with a range of 56 to 91 days and 18 to 45 days, respectively. The skin temperature at midpoint of dorsum of affected foot (T), VAS and ABI was all improved significantly at 3 months after surgery. Furthermore, CTA examination showed an increase in the number of lower extremity arteries and a thickening in the size of small arteriolar compared with those of pre-operative, and the collateral circulation of lower extremity was established and interweaved into a network. Conclusion Integrated surgical treatment of diabetic foot wound can achieve satisfactory clinical results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Carotid atherosclerosis plaque rupture is an important cause of myocardial infarction and stroke. The effective segmentation of ultrasound images of carotid atherosclerotic plaques aids clinicians to accurately assess plaque stability. At present, this procedure relies mainly on the experience of the medical practitioner to manually segment the ultrasound image of the carotid atherosclerotic plaque. This method is also time-consuming. OBJECTIVE This study intends to establish an automatic intelligent segmentation method of ultrasound images of carotid plaque. METHODS The present study combined the U-Net and DenseNet networks, to automatically segment the ultrasound images of carotid atherosclerotic plaques. The same test set was selected and segmented using the traditional U-Net network and the ResUNet network. The prediction results of the three network models were compared using Dice (Dice similarity coefficient), and VOE (volumetric overlap error) coefficients. RESULTS Compared with the existing U-Net network and ResUNet network, the Dense-UNet network exhibited an optimal effect on the automated segmentation of the ultrasound images. CONCLUSION The Dense-UNet network could realize the automatic segmentation of atherosclerotic plaque ultrasound images, and it could assist medical practitioners in plaque evaluation.

Abstract
A 36-year-old healthy male patient was presented to the emergency room 3 h after experiencing a laceration to the left foot caused by a porcelain shard. The defect measured 7.5 × 6.0 × 0.8 cm, and the composite amputated tissue consisted of skin and subcutaneous layers. The terminal branch of the lateral calcaneal artery was first anastomosed end-to-end to the corresponding artery in the wound defect. The lateral calcaneal nerve was anastomosed after blood flow was restored. The two lateral veins were anastomosed end-to-end to the corresponding veins in the wound defect. Postoperatively, 1.0 × 1.5 cm area of skin necrosis was present at the distal end of the tissue, which healed smoothly after two weeks of dressing changes. The patient had retained excellent aesthetic and functionality by the 37 month follow up. Although such isolated amputation is relatively rare, microsurgical replantation is, thus, a feasible option in the management of heel amputation.

Abstract
Background Schwann cell-like cells (SCLCs), differentiated from mesenchymal stem cells, have shown promising outcomes in the treatment of peripheral nerve injuries in preclinical studies. However, certain clinical obstacles limit their application. Hence, the primary aim of this study was to investigate the role of exosomes derived from SCLCs (SCLCs-exo) in peripheral nerve regeneration. Methods SCLCs were differentiated from human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSCs) in vitro and validated by immunofluorescence, real-time quantitative PCR and western blot analysis. Exosomes derived from hAMSCs (hAMSCs-exo) and SCLCs were isolated by ultracentrifugation and validated by nanoparticle tracking analysis, WB analysis and electron microscopy. A prefabricated nerve graft was used to deliver hAMSCs-exo or SCLCs-exo in an injured sciatic nerve rat model. The effects of hAMSCs-exo or SCLCs-exo on rat peripheral nerve injury (PNI) regeneration were determined based on the recovery of neurological function and histomorphometric variation. The effects of hAMSCs-exo or SCLCs-exo on Schwann cells were also determined via cell proliferation and migration assessment. Results SCLCs significantly expressed the Schwann cell markers glial fibrillary acidic protein and S100. Compared to hAMSCs-exo, SCLCs-exo significantly enhanced motor function recovery, attenuated gastrocnemius muscle atrophy and facilitated axonal regrowth, myelin formation and angiogenesis in the rat model. Furthermore, hAMSCs-exo and SCLCs-exo were efficiently absorbed by Schwann cells. However, compared to hAMSCs-exo, SCLCs-exo significantly promoted the proliferation and migration of Schwann cells. SCLCs-exo also significantly upregulated the expression of a glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor, myelin positive regulators (SRY-box transcription factor 10, early growth response protein 2 and organic cation/carnitine transporter 6) and myelin proteins (myelin basic protein and myelin protein zero) in Schwann cells. Conclusions These findings suggest that SCLCs-exo can more efficiently promote PNI regeneration than hAMSCs-exo and are a potentially novel therapeutic approach for treating PNI.

Abstract
A new 320 GHz solid-state source interferometer is installed in the Heliotron J helical device to explore the physics of high-density plasmas (ne > 2-3 × 1019 m-3, typically) realized with advanced fueling techniques. This interferometry system is of the Michelson type and is based on the heterodyne principle, with two independent solid-state sources that can deliver an output power of up to 50 mW. A high time resolution measurement of <1 µs can be derived by tuning the frequency of one source in the frequency range of 312-324 GHz on the new system, which can realize the fluctuation measurement. We successfully measured the line-averaged electron density in high-density plasma experiments. The measured density agreed well with a microwave interferometer measurement using a different viewing chord, demonstrating that the new system can be used for routine diagnostics of electron density in Heliotron J.

Abstract
In recent years, concerns have arisen from the chemicals incorporated into tire material which are of potential to leach with the tire and road wear particles (TRWP) into the environment. In this study, the distributions of substituted benzothiazoles (BTHs) and p-phenylenediamines (PPDs), two groups of representative TRWP-related chemicals, were investigated in various size fractions (<20, 20-53, 53-125, 125-250, 250-500, 500-1000 μm) of dust samples from open roads and indoor parking lots in the urban region of Guangzhou (Guangdong, China). Mass weight distribution of the dust samples showed that fractions of <250 μm accounted for >72% of the total dust in both microenvironments. Widespread occurrence was observed with >80% detection frequency for almost all target compounds in all the particle fractions. Concentrations of BTHs and PPDs were similar between the two dust matrices. In addition, the newly defined transformation product of 6PPD, 6PPD-Q was at the median concentration of 122 ng/g in road dust and 154 ng/g in indoor parking lot dust. Overall, concentrations of the target BTHs and PPDs varied in different size fractions, which were mostly dominated in fine particle sizes (<53 μm). Specially, >70% of the target compounds were in the size fractions of <250 μm, suggesting the necessity of using <250 μm fractions of particles for monitoring and evaluating contamination levels and exposure risks of BTHs and PPDs from dust in future studies.

Abstract
Atmospheric aerosols have significant effects on the climate and on human health. New particle formation (NPF) is globally an important source of aerosols but its relevance especially towards aerosol mass loadings in highly polluted regions is still controversial. In addition, uncertainties remain regarding the processes leading to severe pollution episodes, concerning e.g. the role of atmospheric transport. In this study, we utilize air mass history analysis in combination with different fields related to the intensity of anthropogenic emissions in order to calculate air mass exposure to anthropogenic emissions (AME) prior to their arrival at Beijing, China. The AME is used as a semi-quantitative metric for describing the effect of air mass history on the potential for aerosol formation. We show that NPF events occur in clean air masses, described by low AME. However, increasing AME seems to be required for substantial growth of nucleation mode (diameter < 30 nm) particles, originating either from NPF or direct emissions, into larger mass-relevant sizes. This finding assists in establishing and understanding the connection between small nucleation mode particles, secondary aerosol formation and the development of pollution episodes. We further use the AME, in combination with basic meteorological variables, for developing a simple and easy-to-apply regression model to predict aerosol volume and mass concentrations. Since the model directly only accounts for changes in meteorological conditions, it can also be used to estimate the influence of emission changes on pollution levels. We apply the developed model to briefly investigate the effects of the COVID-19 lockdown on PM2.5 concentrations in Beijing. While no clear influence directly attributable to the lockdown measures is found, the results are in line with other studies utilizing more widely applied approaches.

Abstract
Background Achieving perfect repair of a nasal defect with the recovery of cosmetic subunits has become a challenge to plastic, dermatologic, and head and neck surgeons. The study aimed to evaluate the effect of reconstructing neoplastic nasal alar subunit defects with sequential facial artery perforator flaps produced from nasolabial groove tissue. Methods A retrospective analysis of 20 patients who had undergone reconstruction for neoplastic nasal alar defects with this technique from January 2017 to October 2019 was performed. The reconstruction procedure used sequential facial artery perforator flaps. The surgical procedure used and follow-up results achieved have been documented photographically for all patients. Results The aesthetic and functional results of surgery were satisfactory in all the 20 patients. After all surgeries, the reconstructed alar tissues were compliant, bilateral symmetries of the alae and nasolabial grooves were satisfactory, and no patients exhibited color mismatches between the flaps and surrounding tissues. During a mean follow-up period of 22 months, none of the patients exhibited alar retraction, inferior displacement, deformation, or hypertrophic scarring. Conclusions The sequential facial artery perforator flap technique created with nasolabial groove tissue to reconstruct neoplastic nasal alar defects is a simple single-stage procedure that provides excellent surgical outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the effectiveness of free lobed perforator flaps in repairing of complex wounds of limbs. METHODS Between January 2018 and January 2021, 10 patients with complex wounds of limbs were admitted. There were 7 males and 3 females, aged from 32 to 64 years, with an average age of 45 years. There were 4 cases of traffic accident injuries, 3 cases of machine strangulation injuries, 1 case of machine crush injury, and 2 cases of heavy object crush injuries. There were 5 cases of upper limb wounds and 5 cases of lower limb wounds. The size of wounds ranged from 11 cm×10 cm to 25 cm×18 cm. The wounds were repaired with tri-lobed flaps of the descending branch of the lateral femoral circumflex artery in 7 cases, four-lobed flaps in 2 cases, and with tri-lobed flaps of the descending branch of the lateral femoral circumflex artery combined with oblique branch in 1 case. The size of flaps ranged from 12.0 cm×10.5 cm to 28.0 cm×12.0 cm. The donor sites were sutured directly in 9 cases and repaired with superficial iliac circumflex artery perforator flap in 1 case. RESULTS Sinus formed at the edge of the flap in 1 patient, which healed after dressing change and drainage; other flaps survived well, and the wounds healed by first intention. The skin flap at donor site survived, and the incisions healed by first intention. All patients were followed up 6-24 months (mean, 11 months). All flaps had good appearance and function, and linear scars were left at the donor site without obvious complications. CONCLUSION Free lobed perforator flap is an alternative method to repair complex wounds of limbs with high safety, good effectiveness, and less complications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Frailty and sleep duration complaints are both prevalent and often coexist among older adults. The purpose of this study was to examine the prospective association between sleep duration and frailty risk in a nationally representative cohort study. DESIGN Prospective cohort study, ten-year follow-up. SETTING Community-based setting in 23 provinces of China. PARTICIPANTS A total of 7623 older adults age 65 and over without frailty at baseline were included in the analysis. MEASUREMENTS The participants were divided into three groups according to self-reported sleep duration: short (≤6 hours per day), middle (>6 but <10 hours per day) and long (≥10 hours per day). Frailty was measured according to the accumulation of health deficits by the construction of a frailty index of 38 items with 0.25 as the cutoff. A Cox proportional hazard model, a competing risk model and a generalized estimating equation (GEE) model with multiple adjustments were performed to evaluate the association between sleep duration and frailty risk. RESULTS During a median follow-up period of 4.4 years (IQR 2.9-9.0), 2531 (33.2%) individuals developed frailty. Compared with participants with middle sleep duration, the risk of frailty was increased among participants with long sleep duration (HR 1.26, 95% CI 1.14-1.38) in the fully adjusted Cox proportional hazard model. However, short sleep duration was insignificantly associated with frailty risk. The competing risk model and the GEE model yielded similar results. CONCLUSION Long sleep duration is significantly associated with frailty incidence among older adults even after adjustment for confounding factors. This study provides reinforcing longitudinal evidence for the need to design sleep quality improvement interventions in health care programs to prevent frailty among older adults.

Abstract
Background: Pyrotinib is a novel irreversible pan-ErbB receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Evidence of the efficacy of pyrotinib-based treatments for HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) in patients exposed to lapatinib is limited. Methods: Ninety-four patients who received pyrotinib as a third- or higher-line treatment for HER2-positive MBC were included in this retrospective study. The primary and secondary endpoints were overall survival (OS) and progression‐free survival (PFS). Propensity score matching (PSM) and inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) analysis were implemented to balance important patient characteristics between groups. Results: Thirty (31.9%) patients were pretreated with lapatinib and subsequently received pyrotinib as an anti-HER2 treatment, and 64 (68.1%) patients did not receive this treatment. The OS and PFS indicated a beneficial trend in lapatinib-naive group compared to lapatinib-treated group in either the original cohort (PFS: 9.02 vs 6.36 months, p = 0.05; OS: 20.73 vs 14.35 months, p = 0.08) or the PSM (PFS: 9.02 vs 6.08 months, p = 0.07; OS: 19.07 vs 18.00 months, p = 0.61) or IPTW (PFS: 9.90 vs 6.17 months, p = 0.05; OS: 19.53 vs 15.10 months, p = 0.08) cohorts. Subgroup analyses demonstrated lapatinib treatment-related differences in PFS in the premenopausal subgroup and the no prior trastuzumab treatment subgroup, but no significant differences were observed in OS. Conclusion: Pyrotinib-based therapy demonstrated promising effects in HER2-positive MBC patients in a real-world study, especially in lapatinib-naive patients, and also some activity in lapatinib-treated patients.

Abstract
Objective To explore the feasibility and accuracy of modified three longitudinal and five transverse method in locating perforating branches before anterolateral thigh perforator flap (ALTP) repair. Methods Between January 2019 and December 2019, 41 patients with skin and soft tissue defects were repaired with ALTP. There were 31 males and 10 females. The age ranged from 18 to 61 years, with an average of 32 years. The soft tissue defects were caused by trauma in 38 cases, and the time from injury to operation was 3-7 days, with an average of 4 days. The wounds left after excision of scar contracture deformity because of burn in 3 cases. Soft tissue defects located at upper limbs in 16 cases and lower limbs in 25 cases. The size of soft tissue defects ranged from 10 cm×4 cm to 25 cm×12 cm. Before operation, zonesⅠ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, and Ⅳwere formed on the anterolateral thigh by modified three longitudinal and five transverse method. The perforating branches were detected in these four zones by Doppler ultrasound, and the skin flaps were designed according to the wound area. The perforating branches were explored during operation, and the distribution and types of perforating branches in each zone and the relationship between perforating branches and lateral femoral cutaneous nerve were observed. The ALTP with the size of 12 cm×5 cm to 30 cm×10 cm was used to repair the wound, and the donor site was sutured directly or repaired with the flap. Results A total of 117 perforating branches were detected in 41 patients before operation, and 111 perforating branches were found during operation, with a false positive rate of 5%. The probability of perforating branches in zonesⅠ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, and Ⅳ were 56%, 73%, 76%, and 66% respectively, and the false positive rates were -9%, 7%, 16%, and 4%, respectively. All perforating branches located near the trunk of lateral femoral cutaneous nerve, especially in posterolateral area. There were only 1 perforating branch in 6 cases, 2 perforating branches in 12 cases, 3 perforating branches in 10 cases, and 4 perforating branches in 13 cases. The main types of perforating branches in zonesⅠ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, and Ⅳ were transverse perforating branches, oblique perforating branches, descending perforating branches, and descending perforating branches, respectively. Partial distal necrosis occurred in 2 cases and complete necrosis occurred in 1 case after operation, and the wounds were repaired with skin grafts. The remaining 38 flaps survived successfully, and the wounds and the incisions of donor sites healed by first intention. All patients were followed up 3 to 12 months, with an average of 6 months. The appearance and texture of the skin flap were acceptable, and linear scar remained in the donor site. Conclusion It can simply locate and distinguish the perforating branches and better protect the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve by using the modified three longitudinal and five transverse method before ALTP repair.

Objective
To analysis the Chinese ART data in 2018 to provide evidence for utilization of various ART.
Methods
The data of ART of 263 Reproductive Centers in the mainland of China in 2018 were collected by CSRM ART Data Reporting System. A cross-sectional survey of the use of ART technology was performed.
Results
In 2018, the CSRM data reporting system reported 105 610 AID/AIH cycles, 323 938 oocyte retrieval cycles, 147 129 fresh embryo transfer cycles, 254 012 frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles, and 204 688 newborn . The patient's age was mainly concentrated in the group <35 years old, accounting for 63.75%. The pregnancy rate and live birth rate of retrieval cycles were 52.49% and 42.23% respectively. The pregnancy rate and live birth rate of FET cycles were 48.71% and 37.68% respectively. Among ART complications, the incidence of moderate to severe OHSS was 1.42%, 0.03% postoperative bleeding, 0.01% postoperative pelvic infection, and 0.04% the other complications. The incidence of birth defects of IVF was 0.87%.
Conclusions
This study uses "CSRM data reporting system" data to describe and analyze the current status of ART, basically consistent with the comparison in 2016 and 2017 that most cycles with good outcomes. However, no clear conclusions have been drawn on the changes of PGD/PGS cycle, all-freeze cycle and comprehensive analysis should be conducted by combining with laboratory data.

Abstract
We report the development of a new interferometer with two stable, high-power, 320 GHz solid-state sources in Heliotron J. A heterodyne Michelson interferometer optical scheme is employed. Two solid-state oscillators are utilized as sources with a fixed frequency at 320 GHz and frequency tunable of 312-324 GHz. Quasi-optical techniques are used for beam transmission. The beam is elongated in the vertical direction with two off-axis parabolic mirrors and injected into the plasma as a sheet beam for the multi-channel measurement (>5 ch.). Passing through the plasma, the beam is reflected at a retroreflector-array installed at the vacuum chamber wall. The retroreflector-array is a bunch of retroreflector structures, which can suppress the beam refraction caused by plasma without much space inside a vacuum chamber unlike a single retroreflector and can facilitate the system design. The source, detectors, and the retroreflector-array are tested to evaluate their basic performance on a tabletop experiment.

Abstract
Chronic diabetic wounds affect the quality of life of patients, resulting in significant social and economic burdens on both individuals and the health care system. Although treatment methods for chronic diabetic wounds have been explored, there remains a lack of effective treatment strategies; therefore, alternative strategies must be explored. Recently, the abnormal expression of non-coding RNA in diabetic wounds has received widespread attention since it is an important factor in the development of diabetic wounds. This article reviews the regulatory role of three common non-coding RNAs (microRNA [miRNA], long non-coding RNA [lncRNA], and circular RNA [circRNA]) in diabetic wounds and discusses the diagnosis, treatment potential, and challenges of non-coding RNA in diabetic wounds. This article provides insights into new strategies for diabetic wound diagnosis and treatment at the genetic and molecular levels.

Abstract
Objective To summarize the research progress of the effects of high glucose microenvironment on the biological activity of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs). Methods The literature on the high glucose microenvironment and ADSCs at home and abroad in recent years was reviewed, and the effects of high glucose microenvironment on the general characteristics, differentiation potential, angiogenesis, and nerve regeneration of ADSCs were summarized. Results The accumulation of advanced glycosylation end products (AGEs) in the high glucose microenvironment led to changes in the biological activities of ADSCs through various pathways, including cell surface markers, proliferation, migration, multi-lineage differentiation, secretory function, and tissue repair ability. The ability of ADSCs to promote angiogenesis and nerve regeneration in high glucose microenvironment is still controversial. Conclusion High glucose microenvironment can affect the biological activity of ADSCs, and the effect and mechanism of ADSCs on angiogenesis and nerve regeneration in high glucose microenvironment need to be further studied.

Abstract
Anterolateral thigh (ALT) free flaps are widely used for reconstruction, but poor sensory recovery of the flap tissue can cause unsatisfactory outcomes and poor function. Adipose‐derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) promote neural regeneration, but the clinical use of stem‐cell therapy has been limited by lack of regulatory approval. Nanofat is an autologous product that is prepared mechanically from harvested fat. It is enriched in ADSCs and does not contain any exogenous substances. The developmental and adult neurobiology of nerve‐growth factor (NGF) are well investigated, and mouse (m)NGF has been used to promote recovery following peripheral nerve injury. We investigated the promotion of nanofat and mNGF as either mono‐ or combined therapy on the sensory recovery of ALT free flaps. We found that nanofat and mNGF had a synergistic effect on sensory recovery that was associated with stimulation of angiogenesis and neurogenesis. Nanofat combined with mNGF was better at promoting neural regeneration and improving sensory recovery than treatment with either agent alone. The results provide a theoretical rationale for further study of the clinical use of nanofat combined with mNGF to promote the sensory recovery of ALT free flaps.

Abstract
Early detection of cervical lymph node metastasis (CLNM) from squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the oral cavity remains challenging. This prospective study was performed to evaluate the ability of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) to detect CLNM from oral cavity SCC. Additionally, its diagnostic value was compared with that of contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT). Forty-eight consecutive patients with SCC of the oral cavity were enrolled. All subjects were examined preoperatively with both CEUS and CECT. Subsequently, neck dissections were performed for these patients, and cervical lymph nodes separated from the surgical specimens were assessed histologically. The diagnostic performance of these two examinations was compared based on the results of histopathology. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and Youden index for CEUS and CECT were 69.39% vs. 44.90%, 94.71% vs. 97.12%, 89.88%% vs. 87.16%, 75.56% vs. 78.57%, 92.92% vs. 88.21%, and 64.10% vs. 42.02%, respectively. A significant difference was observed in terms of sensitivity (P=0.024) and Youden index (rate difference 22.08%, 95% confidence interval 2.72-41.44%). Therefore, CEUS appears to be a promising diagnostic tool that is superior to CECT for detecting CLNM from SCC of the oral cavity, with a higher sensitivity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) have become one of the most utilized adult stem cells due to their abundance and accessibility. Recent studies have shown that paracrine cytokines, exosomes, and other active substances are the main factors through which ADSCs exert their biological effects. MAIN BODY Adipose cell-free derivatives have been recently gaining attention as potential therapeutic agents for various human diseases. These derivatives include ADSC-conditioned medium (ADSC-CM), ADSC exosomes (ADSC-Exo), and cell-free adipose tissue extracts (ATEs), all of which can be conveniently carried, stored, and transported. Currently, research on ADSC-conditioned medium (ADSC-CM) and ADSC exosomes (ADSC-Exo) is surging. Moreover, cell-free adipose tissue extracts (ATEs), obtained by purely physical methods, have emerged as the focus of research in recent years. CONCLUSION Adipose cell-free derivatives delivery can promote cell proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis, suppress cell apoptosis, and inflammation, as well as reduce oxidative stress and immune regulation. Thus, adipose cell-free derivatives have a broad therapeutic potential in many areas, as they possess anti-skin aging properties, promote wound healing, reduce scar formation, and provide myocardial protection and neuroprotection. This article summarizes these effects and reviews research progress in the use of adipose cell-free derivatives.

Abstract
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a widely distributed non-fermentative Gram-negative opportunistic pathogen that is often responsible for nosocomial infections. Gene interference is a potentially valuable tool for investigating essential genes in P. aeruginosa. To establish a gene interference platform in P. aeruginosa, CRISPR system was used with an inactive Cas9 protein. The CRISPR-dCas9 system was cloned into pHERD20T, a shuttle vector with arabinose inducible promoter, and was further modified to target a regulatory gene prtR that is essential for the viability of P. aeruginosa. Cells expressing the prtR-targeting CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) showed growth defect in an arabinose dose-dependent manner. A high-throughput RNA sequencing analysis of bacterial cells with or without the CRISPRi-mediated prtR inhibition indicated that prtRis a global regulator affecting multiple biological processes. In conclusion, the CRISPR-dCas9-based gene knockdown system has been successfully implemented in P. aeruginosa and demonstrated to be an effective tool in the investigation of essential or difficult-to-inactivate genes in this species.

Abstract
Despite being an attractive cell type for mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) transplantation therapy for wound healing, human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) from diabetes mellitus (DM) patients result in remarkable retention of stem cell activity due to diabetes-induced glucolipotoxicity. We explored the effect of diabetes and medium containing AGEs on the cell activity, phenotype, multipotency, angiogenic potential, and the therapeutic effect of hADSCs. Then, miRNA-1248 was selected by miRNA microarray analysis to further study the core molecular pathways that regulate the wound healing ability of hADSCs. hADSCs isolated from DM patients or cultured in medium containing AGEs in vitro exhibited decreased effectiveness in stem cell therapy. The expression of miRNA-1248 was decreased in the hADSCs of DM patients and hence failed to positively regulate stem cell activity, differentiation functions, and angiogenesis promotion effect. This concomitantly increased the expression of CITED2, an inhibitor of HIF-1α, thus influencing growth factors that promote angiogenesis, cellular proliferation, and wound healing. Overall, our data demonstrated that the glucolipotoxicity-impaired wound healing ability of hADSCs might occur through the miR-1248/CITED2/HIF-1α pathway. MiRNA-1248 may have potential to be used as a novel therapeutic target for wound healing in DM patients or restoring the wound healing ability of diabetic hADSCs.

Abstract
Objective To investigate effectiveness of anteromedial thigh perforator flap in repair of soft tissue defects of lower limbs. Methods Between January 2015 and October 2018, 7 patients with soft tissue defects of the lower limbs were repaired with the anteromedial thigh perforator flaps. The patients were males, aged 8-30 years (median, 23 years). There were 5 cases of traffic accident injuries (the time from injury to admission was 1-4 hours, with an average of 1.5 hours), 1 case of scar formation after traffic accident, and 1 case of scar deformity after burn. The defect located in calf in 5 cases, foot in 1 case, and thigh in 1 case. The area of soft tissue defects ranged from 12 cm×4 cm to 21 cm×7 cm; and the area of flaps ranged from 14 cm×5 cm to 24 cm×8 cm. The donor sites were sutured directly. Results The flaps survived completely after operation in 6 cases, and the wounds healed by the first intention; the partial necrosis of flap occurred and healed after skin graft repair in 1 case. One incision partially ruptured in the donor site and healed after dressing change; the other incisions healed by the first intetion. All patients were followed up 6 months to 2 years with an average of 9 months. Except 1 case complained of edema of the flap, the other patients had good shape, good color, and no swelling. Conclusion For patients with soft tissue defects of lower limbs that cannot be repaired with anterolateral thigh perforator flap, the anteromedial thigh perforator flap can be used for good results.

Abstract
Aim: We investigated the healing effects of conditioned medium (CM) derived from a physiological 3D culture system engineered to use an extracellular matrix/stromal vascular fraction (SVF) gel enriched for adipose on diabetic wounds in rats. This CM (Gel-CM) was compared with that from a 2D culture system that used SVF cells (SVF-CM). Materials & methods: Keratinocytes, fibroblasts and wounds were treated with Gel-CM and SVF-CM, and cytokine levels in the CM types were quantified. Results: Proliferation and migration of keratinocytes and fibroblasts were significantly higher after treatment with Gel-CM than with SVF-CM. Collagen secretion by fibroblasts and wound closure were highly stimulated by Gel-CM. Proteomic analyses revealed a higher concentration of growth factors in Gel-CM than in SVF-CM. Conclusion: Gel-CM is a promising therapeutic option for treating diabetic wounds.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the characteristics of body composition (BC) in gout patients and its clinical significance. Methods: Consecutive gout patients were recruited between August 2017 and December 2018. Demographic information, clinical characteristics and comorbidities were collected. BC was assessed by bioelectric impedance analysis including body fat percentage (BF%), trunk and limb BF%, appendicular skeletal muscle index. Overfat was defined by BF% ≥25% for male and ≥35% for female. The association between BC and serum uric acid (sUA) was evaluated by multiple linear regression. Results: A total of 362 gout patients were recruited with median age 38 (30, 52) years, 96.1% (348/362) were male. Mean sUA was (551±133) μmol/L. The mean BF% was (25.8±6.4)% with 53.6%(194/362) patients overfat. Male gout patients with overfat showed more affected joints [4(2, 6) vs. 2(2, 5)], higher sUA [(576±126)μmol/L vs. (523±134) μmol/L], higher prevalence of dyslipidemia [70.1%(131/187) vs. 54.0%(87/161)], metabolic syndrome [60.8%(118/187) vs. 28.0%(47/161)], fatty liver [58.2%(113/187) vs. 35.1%(59/161)] and hypertension [44.4%(83/187) vs. 25.5%(41/161)] than male patients with normal fat (all P<0.05). Their BF%, trunk BF% and limb BF% were positively correlated with the numbers of affected joints, sUA, metabolic syndrome, fatty liver, and hypertension, respectively (r=0.154-0.435, all P<0.05). Multivariable linear regression suggested that BF% (β=4.29, P=0.020) and trunk BF% (β=9.11, P=0.007), but not limb BF%, were positively correlated with sUA. Conclusion: Overfat is very common in gout patients. The proportion of trunk fat in male patients is positively correlated with sUA. When assessing obesity in gout patients clinically, body composition analysis should be performed simultaneously.

Abstract
Formula-fed infants are more susceptible to infectious diseases because they lack the maternal immune factors transferred from breast milk, while their own immune system is still immature. As timely probiotic administration was suggested to promote immune system development in formula-fed infants, this study aimed at assessing the safety and the effects of a probiotic supplement (Bifidobacterium infantis R0033, Bifidobacterium bifidum R0071, and Lactobacillus helveticus R0052) on mucosal immune competence and digestive function in formula-fed infants. Healthy infants (3.5-6 months old) were randomised to receive either probiotic- (n=66) or placebo-supplemented (n=66) formula once a day for four weeks. In the probiotics group, faecal secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA) levels remained similar between visit 2 (baseline; V2) and visit 3 (end-of-treatment; V3), but decreased in the placebo group. Changes in SIgA levels following treatment (log10ΔV3-V2 [95%CI]) between the probiotic and placebo groups were statistically significant (23 ng/dl [-57;102] and -137 ng/dl [-212;-62], respectively (P=0.0044; ANCOVA)). While log10ΔV3-V2 [95%CI] for salivary SIgA levels increased in both groups, this trend was more pronounced in the probiotics than in the placebo group with an increase of 123 ng/dl [9;236] and 37 ng/dL [-72;147], respectively (P=0.2829; ANCOVA). The weekly average number of stools/day was significantly higher in the probiotics group compared to placebo during the last week of treatment for the per protocol population. There was no difference in microbiota composition or anthropometric parameters between groups. No serious adverse event was reported, and all adverse events were mild and unrelated to the product or study. Our results show that formula-fed infants receiving probiotics maintained higher faecal SIgA levels at the end of the four-week treatment period, suggesting a positive effect of probiotics on SIgA production. This study demonstrates the safety of this probiotic formulation in infants. Formula-fed infants may benefit from probiotics supplementation to sustain the development of mucosal immunity.
