Article Synopsis
- This study investigates the genetic differences between postburn keloids and hypertrophic scars using single-cell sequencing to identify molecular biomarkers for accurate diagnosis.
- Researchers conducted analyses on clinical samples to find genes that could distinguish between the two types of scars, focusing on fibroblast cells.
- They identified two key genes, insulin-like growth factor binding protein 6 and tumor necrosis factor alpha-induced protein 6, which showed high diagnostic accuracy for differentiating keloids from hypertrophic scars.
Purpose: To explore the clinical value of various complete blood count (CBC)-derived inflammation indicators to predict in-hospital mortality in patients with extensive burns.
Methods: Systemic inflammation indexes, including lymphocyte-platelet ratio (LPR), neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), neutrophil-monocyte ratio (NMR), monocyte-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte * platelet (NLPR), systemic inflammation index (SII), and systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) on days 1, 3, and 7 after admission were calculated in 135 patients with extensive burns.
Results: We included 135 patients with extensive burns, including 97 survivors and 38 non-survivors.
Hyperpigmentation is a common complication in patients with burn injuries during wound healing; however, the mechanisms underlying its occurrence and development remain unclear. Recently, postinflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) was found to result from overproduction of melanin. Local or systemic inflammatory responses are often observed in patients who develop hyperpigmentation.

The aim of this study was to compare the perioperative outcomes of circular-stapled anastomosis using a transorally inserted anvil (Orvil™) with those of circular-stapled anastomosis using a transthoracically placed anvil (non-Orvil™) in totally minimally invasive Ivor Lewis esophagectomy (Ivor Lewis TMIE).
Methods: The data of 272 patients who underwent Ivor Lewis TMIE for esophageal cancer at multiple centers were collected from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2017.
