    Abstract Reactive oxygen species (ROS) induces necroptotic and ferroptosis in melanoma cells. Salidroside (SAL) regulates ROS in normal cells and inhibits melanoma cell proliferation. This study used human malignant melanoma cells treated with SAL either alone or in combination with ROS scavenger (NAC) or ferroptosis inducer (Erastin). Through cell viability, wound healing assays, and a Seahorse analyze found that SAL inhibited cell proliferation, migration, extracellular acidification rate, and oxygen consumption rate. Metabolic flux analysis, complexes I, II, III, and IV activity of the mitochondrial respiratory chain assays, mitochondrial membrane potential assay, mitochondrial ROS, and transmission electron microscope revealed that SAL induced mitochondrial dysfunction and ultrastructural damage. Assessment of malondialdehyde, lipid ROS, iron content measurement, and Western blot analysis showed that SAL activated lipid peroxidation and promoted ferroptosis in A-375 cells. These effects were abolished after NAC treatment. Additionally, SAL and Erastin both inhibited cell proliferation and promoted cell death; SAL increased the Erastin sensitivity of cells while NAC antagonized it. In xenograft mice, SAL inhibited melanoma growth and promoted ROS-dependent ferroptosis. SAL induced mitochondrial dysfunction and ferroptosis to block melanoma progression through ROS production, which offers a scientific foundation for conducting SAL pharmacological research in the management of melanoma.

    Abstract Although foamed warm mix asphalt (FWMA) offers several benefits, concerns exist regarding the potential moisture damage that can be produced within it. Boiling water tests, the surface free energy (SFE), the binder bond strength (BBS), and atomic force microscopy (AFM) morphologies are all used to analyse the moisture damage of asphalt. These methods were evaluated and compared in this study. The results indicate that some residual moisture remains trapped in asphalt after foaming and that the foaming states for base asphalt and SBS modified asphalt attain stability after 6 min and 15 min, respectively. Boiling water tests are unsuitable for evaluating the adhesion of FWMA. SFE and BBS tests demonstrated that the residual foaming water undermines the bond strength of FWMA by reducing the cohesion energy. The Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and AFM methods were used to identify differences between morphologies by investigating the various foaming water contents. The results of SFE, BBS, and AFM morphologies were observed to be in agreement. Although cohesive failure modes were observed in the BBS experiment, foaming water aggravates the adhesion failure and causes moisture damage owing to the participation of external water. Furthermore, the results indicate that less water damage resistance is associated with substantial amounts of foaming water. These findings provide a clearer understanding of the moisture susceptibility of FWMA.

    Abstract The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy of surgery combined with triamcinolone acetonide injection in managing the difficult problem of keloid formation after syndactyly release. Twenty-two patients with keloid formation after syndactyly release were retrospectively reviewed. They were divided into a simple surgery group and a surgery plus injection group. Complications, web quality, scar score and satisfaction were assessed and compared. In the surgery plus injection group, three patients (3/13) experienced recurrence and ten webs were good, whereas in the simple surgery group, seven patients (7/9) experienced recurrence and five webs were poor. The mean Vancouver Scar Scale score was significantly lower (4.3 versus 7.8) and the mean Faces Questionnaire satisfaction score was higher (4.2 versus 2.6) in the surgery plus injection group. Combining surgical excision with early and repeated intralesional injection can achieve better results with low recurrence rate and side effects.

    Abstract Human cutaneous melanoma (CM) is a highly invasive malignancy arising from melanocytes, and accompanied by ever-increasing incidence and mortality rates worldwide. Interestingly, microRNAs (miRNAs) possess the ability to regulate CM cell biological functions, resulting in the aggressive progression of CM. Nevertheless, a comprehensive understanding of the underlying mechanism remains elusive. Accordingly, the current study sought to elicit the functional role of miR-141-3p in human CM cells in association with fibroblast growth factor 13 (FGF13) and the MAPK pathway. First, miR-141-3p expression patterns were detected in human CM tissues and cell lines, in addition to the validation of the targeting relationship between miR-141-3p and FGF13. Subsequently, loss- and gain-of-function studies of miR-141-3p were performed to elucidate the functional role of miR-141-3p in the malignant features of CM cells. Intriguingly, our findings revealed that FGF13 was highly expressed, whereas miR-141-3p was poorly expressed in the CM tissues and cells. Further analysis highlighted FGF13 as a target gene of miR-141-3p. Meanwhile, overexpression of miR-141-3p inhibited the proliferative, invasive, and migratory abilities of CM cells, while enhancing their apoptosis accompanied by downregulation of FGF13 and the MAPK pathway-related genes. Collectively, our findings highlighted the inhibitory effects of miR-141-3p on CM cell malignant properties via disruption of the FGF13-dependent MAPK pathway, suggesting a potential target for treating human CM.

    Abstract Background: The aim of this study was to determine the clinical outcomes of vascularized hemi-metatarsal composite tissue transfer for the reconstruction of type IIIB hypoplastic thumbs.
    Methods: Twenty-eight patients with type IIIB hypoplastic thumbs treated with vascularized hemi-metatarsal composite tissue transfer were included in this retrospective study with a mean follow-up of 2.4 years. Preoperative digital subtraction angiography was performed to examine the vessel variance. Clinical measures included grip and pinch strength, scar status, and Kapandji thumb opposition score. Subjective Pediatric Outcomes Data Collection Instrument scores and parent satisfaction were also evaluated.
    Results: Radial arteries were hypoplastic in 82.1% of the cases, and the common palmar digital artery was chosen as the recipient vessel for the tissue transfer. There was no neurovascular complication. The only donor-site complication was a metatarsal fracture that healed with casting. Key pinch and tripod pinch were 29.5% and 45.8% of the normal side, respectively. The mean grip strength was 51.7% of the unaffected side. The mean Kapandji score was 6. The Pediatric Outcomes Data Collection Instrument scores were high for global function; upper extremity function; transfer; and basic mobility, happiness, and comfort. The Vancouver Scar Scale showed an average score of 2.1. All parents were satisfied with the clinical outcomes.
    Conclusion: Vascularized hemi-metatarsal composite tissue transfer for type IIIB thumb hypoplasia can provide improved subjective outcomes and is a feasible method for the attainment of a five-digit hand.
    Clinical question/level of evidence: Therapeutic, IV.

    Abstract AbstractPelophylax plancyi (Lataste, 1880), Pelophylax chosenicus (Okada, 1931) and Pelophylax hubeiensis (Fei & Ye, 1982) were described chronologically from East Asia. The three species have similar morphological and molecular characteristics, but the taxonomic relationships amongst them have long been ambiguous. To deal with this taxonomic issue, we examined newly-obtained topotypic specimens of P. plancyi, P. chosenicus and P. hubeiensis for morphological comparison. Furthermore, we investigated the phylogeny of pond frogs in Eurasia by Bayesian Inference and Maximum Likelihood analyses of a fragment consisting of mitochondrial DNA gene 16s and provided a molecular phylogeny of the genus Pelophylax. There were no morphological and molecular differences between P. plancyi and P. chosenicus, but both morphological and molecular differences between P. hubeiensis and P. plancyi. Hence, we conclude that P. chosenicus is a junior synonym of P. plancyi and P. hubeiensis is a separate species from P. plancyi.

    Abstract Hand burns are frequently seen in children, often resulting in digital flexion contractures. Traditional split-thickness or full-thickness skin grafts leave notably different skin texture and hyperpigmentation. The purpose of this study was to describe our operation for treating digital flexion contractures with full-thickness plantar skin grafts, and to evaluate the appearance and function outcomes. Hematoxylin and eosin staining, Masson trichrome staining and Melan A (marker of melanocyte) staining were used to evaluate palmar skin, plantar skin, groin skin and burn scars. Full-thickness plantar skin grafts were performed between 2008 and 2015 in 24 hand burn patients with digital flexion contracture. The average age at the time of surgery was 39.3 months and the average follow-up period was 5.5 years. The functional and cosmetic results were assessed. Plantar skin shared similar attributes with palmar skin histologically. Both plantar skin and palmar skin did not express melan A. All of the skin grafts survived well without hematoma, infection and necrosis. The grafts resembled the adjacent normal skin in regards to appearance and texture. The average TAM (total active movement) degree for the fingers was improved from 152.3° to 238.5°. The average VSS (Vancouver Scar Scale) score decreased dramatically from 10.4 to 1.1. Twenty one of twenty four patients (21/24, 87.5%) were very satisfied with function and appearance, and three in twenty four (3/24, 12.5%) were somewhat satisfied. This study indicates that full-thickness plantar skin grafts can achieve a satisfactory appearance and good function for hand burn child patients with digital flexion contractures.

    Abstract Correction of unequal radial polydactyly in which neither thumb duplicates possess both well-developed proximal and distal components, remains challenging. Current techniques using on-top plasty techniques require circumferential incisions, often resulting in postoperative swelling and dorsal scars. We described our experience using a volar approach to achieve better aesthetic and functional results. Twenty-one patients underwent this surgery between 2008 and 2018, with a mean follow-up of 5.1 years. The mean flexion-extension arc for the metacarpophalangeal joint was 75° and that of the interphalangeal joint was 43°. Mean percentage of key, tripod and tip pinch strength were 77%, 79% and 77%, respectively, when compared with the contralateral side. The Vancouver Scar Scale showed an average score of 1.2. We conclude from our study that the volar approach to on-top plasty is a good technique for the correction of unequal radial polydactyly, with good functional and aesthetic results.

    Abstract The Black-spotted Pond Frog, Pelophylax nigromaculatus, is widely distributed across mainland China, Korean Peninsula, and Japan. The taxonomic relationships among P. n. nigromaculatus, Rana nigromaculata mongolia (sensu P. n. mongolicus), and P. tenggerensis have long been ambiguous. Here we examine the topotype specimens of P. tenggerensis and R. n. mongolia, and provide phylogenic analyses based on four mitochondrial DNA sequences. The combined evidences from morphology and molecular phylogeny have shown the distinct specific-level of P. n. mongolicus that distant from P. nigromaculatus, while indicating the homogeneity between P. n. mongolicus and P. tenggerensis. Thus, we suggest elevating P. n. mongolicus as a full species Pelophylax mongolicus comb. nov., and place P. tenggerensis to be a secondary synonym of P. mongolicus comb. nov.
