    2024, 20 (2):  176. 
    Abstract ( 8 )   PDF (5813KB) ( 4 )  
    Objective To prepare osteochondral tissue engineering materials by mixing chitosan (CS) and collagen
    (Col), and their physical properties and biological safety were tested, so as to provide a biological scaffold material for the
    repair of osteochondral injury. Methods The three groups of mixed scaffolds of CS and Col were made by vacuum freeze
    drying method in different proportions. The porosity, water absorption expansion rate, hot water dissolution rate and
    mechanical properties of the scaffolds were detected. The scaffold structure was observed by scanning electron microscope,
    and its cytotoxicity and biocompatibility were detected by CCK-8 method, F-actin staining method, and Live/Read cell
    staining method. Results The scaffolds were white and regular cylinders, and all three groups of scaffolds had good
    porosity, water absorption expansion rate, hot water dissolution rate and mechanical properties. Scanning electron microscopy
    showed that all three groups of scaffolds had good porous grid structure, and the physical properties were the best when CS︰
    Col was 1︰3. The results of CCK-8 method showed that, compared with the control group, there was no obvious growth
    inhibition in the three groups within a certain time (P>0.05)
    . The results of F-actin staining showed that the cells in each
    group were uniform in size, the cytoskeleton was regular in shape, and the nucleus was not stained and broken. After DAPI
    staining, it was found that the cells grew and distributed well in the scaffold. Live/Read cell testing revealed that all three
    groups of scaffolds had no cytotoxicity to cells, and there was no significant difference in cell viability among the three groups
    of scaffolds (P>0.05)
    . Conclusion CS-Col composite scaffold has good biocompatibility and physical properties, and it is a
    potential tissue engineering material for osteochondrosis.

    MA Lina, WU Jingjing, CHEN Hongfeng
    2024, 20 (2):  184. 
    Abstract ( 6 )   PDF (4529KB) ( 7 )  
    Objective To establish a rat model of granulomatous mastitis through the combination of gastrin-induced
    elevation of serum lactogen and rat milk injection, and to analyze and evaluate the value of each modeling factor and index on
    the model, and to explore an animal model that better fits the characteristics of the disease. Methods Sixteen adult female
    Wistar rats were divided into two groups:6 rats in the normal control group and 10 rats in the model group. The normal control
    group was not given any special treatment. Rats in the model group were injected subcutaneously with gastrin for 2 weeks, and
    the rats were injected locally with a suspension (milk plus adjuvant) on the 1st,7th and 14th days respectively. The changes
    in body weight and mammary mass size were measured once a week. Serum prolactin levels were detected by ELISA before, at
    the 2nd and 4th week of modeling. After the rats were executed, the histopathological changes of mammary glands were
    observed by HE staining. The serum levels of IL-1β and IL-6 were measured by high-throughput liquid-phase protein
    microarray assay before and after modeling. Results After modeling, the skin and breast lumps of the model rats showed
    similar clinical manifestations as those of patients with granulomatous mastitis. In terms of serum prolactin level, the PRL
    level of the model group was higher than that of the normal control group at week 2(P<0.001); The PRL level of the model group was still higher than that of the normal control group at week 4(P<0.01). In terms of pathomorphology, some of the masses were visible as acne-like material to the naked eye, and microscopically the lesion areas were seen as multifocal scattered distribution of epithelioid cells constituting granulomatous nodules with a variety of inflammatory cell infiltrates,
    mainly lymphocytes, and foamy histiocytes, plasma cells, multinucleated giant cells and macrophages. The levels of serum
    interleukin 1β(IL-1β) and interleukin 6(IL-6) after modeling were higher than before modeling (P<0.01). Conclusion  Gastrin-induced elevation of serum lactogen combined with rat milk injection can successfully establish granulomatous mastitis model after 4 weeks of modeling.

    HAO Zijia, XING Qian, HU Dandan, et a(l
    2024, 20 (2):  190. 
    Abstract ( 6 )   PDF (1406KB) ( 2 )  
    Objective To explore the influencing factors of hyperplastic scar and establish a risk prediction model. Methods From April 2021 to April 2023, 102 patients with hyperplastic scar treated in our hospital were selected as hyperplastic scar group, and 102 patients without hyperplastic scar were selected as control group. The clinical data of the two groups were compared, random forest algorithm was used to screen variables, and multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the factors affecting the formation of hyperplastic scar. The sensitivity of the research results was analyzed by correlation E-value method. The value of β in the results of multifactor analysis was substituted into the regression equation y=1-1 / ( 1+e-z), and the prediction model was established and its prediction efficiency was evaluated. Results A total of 9 variables were selected by random forest algorithm. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age ≤ 30 years old, scar history, family scar history, history of poor wound healing, spicy eating habits, wound type of burn, and elevated level of transforming growth factor β1( TGF-β1) were risk factors for hyperplastic scar formation. Scar prevention measures and the increase of tumor necrosis factor-α( TNF-α) level were protective factors. E=1.984, with a 95% CI lower limit of 1.216, the sensitivity of the research results was relatively high. When the probability of hypertrophic scar formation predicted by the model was 0.85, the Youden's J statistic was the highest (74.38), and the prediction effect was the best. The prediction accuracy, sensitivity and specificity were 89.03%,85.73% and 88.65% respectively. The area under the ROCcurve of the subjects was 0.847(95% CI:0.782-0.913, P<0.001), indicating good differentiation. The results of the cross over experiment showed that the fitting degree of the model parameters in the training and validation sets was high  (Nagelkerke R2=0.602), and the model was relatively stable. Conclusion Age, scar history, dietary habits, and serum  inflammatory factor levels are related to the formation of hypertrophic scars. Personalized intervention measures should be  taken in clinical practice to reduce the rate of hypertrophic scar formation.

    2024, 20 (2):  199. 
    Abstract ( 4 )   PDF (993KB) ( 5 )  
    Objective To explore the related factors of capsular contracture of prosthetic breast augmentation. Methods
    A retrospective controlled study was used to analyze the clinical data of 227 patients who underwent breast augmentation with
    silicone gel prosthesis from April 2019 to January 2020. According to whether capsule contracture occurred, the patients were
    divided into capsule contracture group and control group, followed up for 24 months. The age, BMI, smoking history,
    lactation history, surgical approach, prosthesis brand and surface properties, whether prosthesis was too large, whether
    endoscope was used, drainage volume and hematoma between the two groups were compared, and regression analysis was
    performed for the factors with significant correlation. Results There were no significant differences in age, BMI, lactation
    history, surgical approach, brand of prosthesis, surface traits of prosthesis, whether to use endoscope or not and drainage
    volume between the two groups (P>0.05)
    . Smoking history, oversized prosthesis and hematoma were significantly correlated
    with the occurrence of capsular contracture (P<0.05)
    . Logistic regression analysis showed that after correcting the surgical
    approach, prosthesis surface properties and whether or not to use endoscopy, smoking history (OR=2.968,
    95%CI:
    1.385-
    6.365), oversized prosthesis (OR=6.028,
    95%CI:
    2.448-14.845) and hematoma (OR=14.560,
    95%CI:
    1.783-118.922)
    were still positively correlated with capsular contracture. Conclusion Smoking history, excessive prosthesis selection and
    hematoma increase the incidence of capsular contracture, and the specific mechanism needs further study.

    LIAO Guoying, ZHONG Linhong, WANG Fan, et a(l
    2024, 20 (2):  220. 
    Abstract ( 3 )   PDF (1019KB) ( 2 )  
    Objective To investigate the correlation between general anesthesia and neurodevelopmental outcomes in
    children. Methods This retrospective cohort study included children under 3 years old who received general anesthesia in
    our hospital from January 2017 to December 2020 as the anesthesia group, and outpatient or inpatient children aged 3 to 6
    years old who did not receive general anesthesia during September 2022 to August 2023 as the control group. From September
    2022 to August 2023, the study population was assessed for abnormal neurodevelopmental outcomes by the mental
    developmental screening test (DST) at 0-6 years of age. The DST evaluated gross motor, fine motor, language, adaptive
    behavior, and social and self-care. The t-tests were conducted to compare scores on different dimensions between the two
    groups. Linear regression analyses were performed to assess the associations between general anesthesia and children's
    neurodevelopmental outcomes after adjusting for con-founders. Stratified analyses were conducted to explore the impact of
    general anesthesia on neurodevelopmental outcomes in children based on different age ranges of exposure. Results A total of

    336 children participated in the study, with 132 in the control group and 204 in the anesthesia group. The testing age was 


    (4.8±1.2) years in both the control and anesthesia groups, and there was no statistically significant difference (P>0.05)
    .Compared with control group, children in the anesthesia group had lower scores in fine motor, adaptive behavior, language,
    and social and self-care, with statistically significant difference (P<0.05). After adjusting for con-founders, the effects of
    anesthesia on the adaptive behavior and language remained significant (P<0.05). Stratification analysis according to the age
    at the time of anesthesia showed that general anesthesia at 0-1 year old was associated with lower scores of adaptive behavior
    and social and self-care factors (P<0.05), and general anesthesia at 2 to 3 years old was associated with lower language
    factor scores (P<0.05). Conclusion Exposure to general anesthesia at an early age (<3 years old) is associated with poor
    neurocognition in adaptive behavior and language. General anesthesia at different ages has different effects on the
    development of specific nerve functional areas.
