Background: Perineal wound complications after abdominoperineal resection continue to be a significant challenge. Complications, ranging from 14% up to 60%, prolong hospitalization, increase risk of readmission and reoperation, delay the start of adjuvant therapy, and place psychological stress on the patient and family.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of closed incision negative pressure therapy on perineal wound healing.

Design: This was a retrospective study.

Settings: The study was conducted in an academic community hospital.

Patients: Patients who underwent abdominoperineal resection from 2012 to 2020 were included.

Main Outcome Measures: Perineal wound complications within 30 and 180 days were the primary outcome measures.

Results: A total of 45 patients were included in the study. Of these, 31 patients were managed with closed incision negative pressure therapy. The overall perineal wound complications were less frequent in the closed incision negative pressure therapy group (10/31; 32.2%) compared to the control group (10/14; 71.4%; = 5.99 [ p = 0.01]). In the closed incision negative pressure therapy group, 2 patients (20%) did not heal within 180 days and no patient required reoperation or readmission. In the control group, 4 patients (44%) had not healed at 180 days and 1 patient required flap reconstruction. When the effect of other variables was controlled, closed incision negative pressure therapy resulted in an 85% decrease in the odds of wound complications (adjusted OR 0.15 [95% CI, 0.03-0.60]; p = 0.01).

Limitations: The nonrandomized nature and use of historical controls in this study are its limitations.

Conclusions: The ease of application and the overall reduction in the incidence and severity of complications may offer an option for perineal wound management and possibly obviate the need for more expensive therapies. Further prospective controlled trials are required to effectively study its efficacy. See Video Abstract at http://links.lww.com/DCR/B895 .

La Terapia Por Presin Negativa Incisional Cerrada, Reduce Las Complicaciones De La Herida Perineal Despus De La Reseccin Abdominoperineal: ANTECEDENTES:Las complicaciones de la herida perineal, después de la resección abdominoperineal, continúan siendo un desafío importante. Las complicaciones, que van desde el 14% hasta el 60%, prolongan la hospitalización, aumentan el riesgo de reingreso y reintervención, retrasan el inicio de la terapia adyuvante y generan estrés psicológico en el paciente y su familia.OBJETIVO:Evaluar el impacto de la terapia de presión negativa con incisión cerrada en la cicatrización de heridas perineales.DISEÑO:Estudio retrospectivo.ENTORNO CLINICO:Hospital comunitario académico.PACIENTES:Se incluyeron pacientes sometidos a resección abdominoperineal entre 2012 y 2020.PRINCIPALES MEDIDAS DE VALORACION:Las complicaciones de la herida perineal dentro de los 30 y 180 días fueron las principales medidas de valoración.RESULTADOS:Se incluyeron en el estudio a un total de 45 pacientes. De estos, 31 pacientes fueron tratados con terapia de presión negativa con incisión cerrada. Las complicaciones generales de la herida perineal fueron menos frecuentes en el grupo de terapia de presión negativa con incisión cerrada (10/31, 32,2%) en comparación con el grupo de control (10/14, 71,4%) (X_1 ^ 2 = 5,99 [ p = 0,01]). En el grupo de terapia de presión negativa con incisión cerrada, dos pacientes (20%) no cicatrizaron en 180 días y ningún paciente requirió reintervención o readmisión. En el grupo de control, cuatro pacientes (44%) no habían cicatrizado a los 180 días y un paciente requirió reconstrucción con colgajo. Cuando se controló el efecto de otras variables, la terapia de presión negativa con incisión cerrada resultó con una disminución del 85% en las probabilidades de complicaciones de la herida (OR ajustado, 0.15 [IC 95%, 0,03-0,60]; p = 0,01).LIMITACIONES:La naturaleza no aleatoria y el uso de controles históricos en este estudio, son limitaciones.CONCLUSIÓNES:La facilidad de aplicación, reducción general de la incidencia y gravedad de las complicaciones, pueden ofrecer una opción para el manejo de las heridas perineales y posiblemente obviar la necesidad de tratamientos más costosos. Se necesitan más ensayos controlados prospectivos para efectivamente estudiar la eficacia. Consulte Video Resumen en http://links.lww.com/DCR/B895 . (Traducción-Dr. Fidel Ruiz Healy ).

ICEmST contributes to colonization of Salmonella in the intestine of piglets.

Salmonella enterica serovar 4,[5],12:i:- sequence type 34 (ST34) has recently become a global concern for public and animal health. The acquisition of mobile genetic element ICEmST, which contains two copper tolerance gene clusters, cus and pco, influences the epidemic success of this clone. Copper is used as a feed additive in swine at levels that potentially lead to selection pressure for Enterobacteriaceae; however, it remains unclear whether the copper tolerance system of ICEmST functions in vivo.

The urban agglomeration represents the predominant form of new urbanisation, yet the evolution of its internal spatial structure exhibits pronounced spatial and temporal heterogeneity. This study concentrates on the Bohai Rim urban agglomeration, one of three major urban agglomerations in China, which has received comparatively limited research attention but has also undergone substantial urbanisation. Therefore, we reassessed and explored the spatial-temporal evolution of the spatial structure of urban expansion using Exploratory Spatiotemporal Data Analysis (ESTDA), and summarized the driving mechanisms using Geographically and Temporally Weighted Regression (GTWR).

Building resilient cities has become an emerging risk management strategy, thus it is necessary to make a scientific evaluation on urban resilience. In this study, both the Driving Force-Pressure-State-Impact-Response (DPSIR) framework and the BP neural network are innovatively adopted to construct a comprehensive urban resilience evaluation system. Prefecture-level cities in Hubei Province are examined for empirical analysis.

Adequate and sufficient sleep is essential for good health, effective functioning, and well-being, yet recent trends show increasing sleep deprivation, especially among adolescents and young adults. General procrastination and bedtime procrastination understood as the tendency to delay going to bed without external pressure, may contribute to sleep deprivation and fatigue. This study investigated how individual differences in time perspective are related to sleep sufficiency and daytime fatigue, two different sleep outcomes.
