Application of a New Mesh Fixation Method in Laparoscopic Incisional Hernia Repair.

Laparoscopic incisional hernia repair using intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM) is one of the most widely used minimally invasive methods for repairing incisional hernias. The laparoscopic IPOM involves implanting the mesh into the abdominal cavity through laparoscopy to repair an abdominal wall hernia. In the IPOM surgery, after the closure of the hernia ring, an anti-adhesion mesh is placed laparoscopically.

Iron-Rich Conditions Induce OmpA and Virulence Changes of .

Iron ions affect the expression of outer membrane protein A (OmpA), a major pathogenic protein in To analyze the effect of iron ions on the expression of the OmpA protein of and explore its association with the virulence of OmpA. Site-directed mutagenesis was used to construct gene deletion strains and gene repair strains. The OmpA protein expression of under culture with different contents of iron ions was detected.

Biofilm-Related Genes: Analyses in Multi-Antibiotic Resistant Acinetobacter Baumannii Isolates From Mainland China.

BACKGROUND Acinetobacter baumannii is an important nosocomial pathogen which shows a high level of mortality risk. Several papers have reported biofilm formation as a well-known pathogenic mechanism in A. baumannii infections and exceptional antibiotic resistance.
