    Abstract Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is the primary cause of respiratory failure in critically ill patients. Despite remarkable therapeutic advances in recent years, ARDS remains a life-threatening clinical complication with high morbidity and mortality, especially during the global spread of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Previous studies have demonstrated that mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based therapy is a potential alternative strategy for the treatment of refractory respiratory diseases including ARDS, while extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) as the last resort treatment to sustain life can help improve the survival of ARDS patients. In recent years, several studies have explored the effects of ECMO combined with MSC-based therapies in the treatment of ARDS, and some of them have demonstrated that this combination can provide better therapeutic effects, while others have argued that some critical issues need to be solved before it can be applied to clinical practice. This review presents an overview of the current status, clinical challenges and future prospects of ECMO combined with MSCs in the treatment of ARDS.

    Abstract Background and aims: Neonatal diseases are a significant threat to global public health, affecting the homeostasis and well-being of patients and reflecting the status of, and challenges to, regional, national, and global healthcare systems. This study sought to investigate how the disease spectrum observed among neonatal inpatients changed after the onset of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.
    Methods: The present hospital-based retrospective study analyzed the demographic and clinical characteristics of 19,943 hospitalized newborns from January 2018 to December 2022 using data derived from pediatric department registers.
    Results: According to the International Classification of Diseases 11th Revision (ICD-11) classification criteria, the two most common neonatal disorders during this study period were "Certain conditions originating in the perinatal period" and "Disease of the respiratory system." Following the start of the COVID-19 pandemic (2020 onwards), the number of neonatal patients declined markedly (5742 per year vs. 2820 per year), and the incidence of "Disease of the respiratory system" was significantly lower than in 2018-2019 (25.72% vs. 17.46%).
    Conclusion: The study offers detailed insights into the shifts in neonatal disease patterns at the Seventh Medical Center of the PLA General Hospital following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, providing a foundation for future research and policymaking efforts.

    Abstract Objective: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is an advanced life support that has been utilized in the neonate for refractory respiratory and circulatory failure. Striving for the best outcomes and understanding optimal surgical techniques continue to be at the forefront of discussion and research. This study presents a single-center experience of cervically cannulated neonatal patients on V-A ECMO, a description of our cannulation/decannulation techniques and our patient outcomes.
    Methods: Single center retrospective review of neonates who received neck V-A ECMO support from January 2012 to December 2022. The data and outcomes of the patients were retrospectively analyzed.
    Results: A total of 78 neonates received V-A ECMO support. There were 66 patients that received ECMO for respiratory support, the other 12 patients that received ECMO for cardiac support. The median duration of ECMO support was 109 (32-293) hours for all patients. During ECMO support, 20 patients died and 5 patients discontinued treatment due to poor outcome or the cost. A total of 53 (68%) patients were successfully weaned from ECMO, but 3 of them died in the subsequent treatment. Overall 50 (64%) patients survived to hospital discharge. In this study, 48 patients were cannulated using the vessel sparing technique, the other 30 patients were cannulated using the ligation technique. We found no significant difference in the rates of normal cranial MRI at discharge between survivors with and without common carotid artery ligation.
    Conclusion: We achieved satisfactory outcomes of neonatal ECMO in 11-year experience. This study found no significant difference in early neuroimaging between survivors with and without common carotid artery ligation. The long-term neurological function of ECMO survivors warranted further follow-up and study.

    Abstract Objective: The aim of the study is to assess the therapeutic effect and applicability of pectoralis major muscle turnover flap (PMMTF) reconstruction for treatment of deep sternal wound infection (DSWI) after cardiac surgery in infants and children.
    Methods: From March 2013 to October 2021, 23 patients with DSWI after cardiac surgery underwent PMMTF reconstruction. The data and outcomes of the patients were retrospectively analyzed.
    Results: Twenty patients were treated with unilateral PMMTF reconstruction, and three patients were treated by bilateral PMMTF. All of the sternal wounds healed successfully. All patients survived and were discharged without evidence of infection. In a follow-up period, ranging from 15 to 83 months (mean 32.6 months), all patients demonstrated normal development with no limitations to limb movements. There were no signs of chronic sternal infection in all of them.
    Conclusion: PMMTF reconstruction is a simple, feasible, and effective treatment of DSWI after cardiac surgery in infants and children, with minimal developmental problems.

    Abstract Outcomes of operations for total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) have improved. However, postoperative pulmonary venous obstruction remains the most significant complication with high morbidity and mortality. We introduce a window anastomosis technique for repair of supracardiac TAPVC in infants. The mainstay of the surgical technique is to resect the anterior wall of the pulmonary vein confluence and part of the posterior wall of the left atrium to form a large and undistorted "window to window" anastomosis.
