Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Due to the increasing demand for improving the morphology and function of the external genitalia amongst women, it is necessary to conduct statistical analysis of research data on female genital reconstruction. The current study aimed to use bibliometric analysis to analyse the research hotspots and trend frontiers of the female genital reconstructive research. METHODS Publications on the female genital reconstructive research were extracted from the Web of Science Core Collection database. VOSviewer 1.6.18 was used to establish visualisation maps and find top authors, institutions, countries, burst keywords, co-cited authors, journals, research hotspots, and trends. RESULTS A total of 2207 studies published by 364 different journals authored by 7479 researchers were contained in this study. In the co-authorship analysis, the bulk of the retrieved studies was conducted by the USA, followed by England, Italy, and Netherlands, whilst the most productive institution, journal, and author were U.S. Univ Calif San Francisco, Journal of Sexual Medicine, and Bouman Mark-Bram, respectively. In the co-cited analysis, the top most-cited author and journal were Hage JJ and Journal of Sexual Medicine, respectively. The map of keywords occurrence revealed the most active research aspects were focussed on "vaginoplasty", "feminised genitoplasty", "laser treatment of vaginal atrophy", "transsexualism", and "labiaplasty". The time overlay mapping showed that the study of female genital plastic surgery focusses on the energetic treatment of genitourinary syndromes caused by transsexualism and menopause, especially by using management and treatment of vulvovaginal atrophy for the research trends, and through the vaginoplasty, feminising genioplasty, and laser treatments in the direction of treatments related to physical and mental problems. INTERPRETATION AND CONCLUSIONS This novel inclusive bibliometric analysis can help research workers to quickly understand the potential and active researchers, landmark studies, and topics within their interests. We are willing to provide more beneficial data to contribute valuable research of female genital plastic surgery through this study. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III The journal asks authors to assign a level of evidence to each article.

Abstract
Background Autoamputation of the appendix, i.e., complete separation of a part of the appendix without any surgical intervention, has been rarely documented in the literature in recent years. Herein, we report a case where the amputated part of the appendix was viable after autoamputation and reviewed the related literature. Case presentation A 39-year-old female patient was admitted to our hospital complaining of abdominal pain and subsequently underwent an emergency laparoscopic appendectomy (LA). Intraoperatively, we found an abnormally short appendix protruding from the cecum and a strip-like tissue attached to the mesoappendix, considered a duplex appendix, was resected. Finally, in conjunction with the histopathology findings and the past medical history, the patient was diagnosed with “Pseudo-duplication of the Appendix”. Conclusions Autoamputation of the appendix resulting in preserved tissue viability and absence of necrosis at both ends, can be termed as “Pseudo-duplication of the Appendix”. This condition is very rare in clinical practice and has not been reported in China, to the best of our knowledge. It has been established that the autoamputated appendix can produce chronic inflammation, intestinal fistulae and even cancer, affecting the patient’s quality of life. Accordingly, a clear diagnosis and timely management are essential. In this report, we established a novel classification for “Pseudo-duplication of the Appendix”, hoping that our report will help surgeons better understand this anatomical anomaly of the appendix, to help during the differential diagnosis process and avoid confusion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Since arrhythmia induces irregular pulse waves, it is widely considered to cause flawed oscillometric brachial cuff measurements of blood pressure (BP). However, strong data are lacking. We assessed whether the agreement of oscillometric measurements with intra-arterial measurements is worse during arrhythmia than during regular rhythm. METHODS Among patients of three intensive care units (ICUs), a prospective comparison of three pairs of intra-arterial and oscillometric BP readings was performed among patients with arrhythmia and an arterial line already present. After each inclusion in the arrhythmia group, one patient with regular rhythm was included as a control. International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standard validation required a mean bias <5 (sd 8) mm Hg. RESULTS In 135 patients with arrhythmia, the agreement between oscillometric and intra-arterial measurements of systolic, diastolic and mean BP was similar to that observed in 136 patients with regular rhythm: for mean BP, similar mean bias [-0.1 (sd 5.2) and 1.9 (sd 5.9) mm Hg]. In both groups, the ISO standard was satisfied for mean and diastolic BP, but not for systolic BP (sd >10 mm Hg) in our ICU population. The ability of oscillometry to detect hypotension (systolic BP <90 mm Hg or mean BP <65 mm Hg), response to therapy (>10% increase in mean BP after cardiovascular intervention) and hypertension (systolic BP >140 mm Hg) was good and similar during arrhythmia and regular rhythm (respective areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves ranging from 0.89 to 0.96, arrhythmia vs regular rhythm between-group comparisons all associated with P>0.3). CONCLUSIONS Contrary to widespread belief, arrhythmia did not cause flawed automated brachial cuff measurements.

Abstract
Kidney dysfunction is a recognized complication after non-renal solid organ transplantation, particularly after intestinal transplant. In our study, we reviewed data on 33 multivisceral transplant (MVT)- and 15 isolated small bowel (ISB)-transplant patients to determine risk factors for kidney dysfunction. Kidney function was estimated by modified diet in renal disease (MDRD) and Schwartz formula for adults and children, respectively. Acute kidney injury (AKI) was defined as an increase in the serum Cr (sCr) greater than twofold. Kidney function declined significantly at one yr after transplantation with 46% of subjects showing an estimated GFR (eGFR) <60 mL/min. Patients with an episode of AKI were more likely to have reduced eGFR than those without AKI (p < 0.025). In linear regression analyses, age, pre-transplant sCr, eGFR at postoperative day (POD) 30, 90, 180, 270, and tacrolimus level at POD 7 showed significant correlation with one yr post-transplant eGFR (p < 0.05). Pediatric patients and patients with MVT had lesser decline in kidney function compared with adults or patients with ISB. In conclusion, risk factors for post-transplant kidney dysfunction in intestinal transplantation included age, pre-transplant sCr, AKI episode, eGFR at POD 30, 90, 180, 270, and tacrolimus level at POD 7.

Abstract
Abstract
Background. Complaints of sleep disturbances are common in patients with breast cancer and may affect their quality of life. Insomnia, fatigue, and sleep fragmentation were previously reported in these patients. However, no studies reported polysomnographic data to elucidate the etiology of these symptoms. We hypothesized that patients with breast cancer will have considerable abnormalities on their monitored overnight sleep studies including sleep disordered breathing, periodic leg movement, and spontaneous arousals.Methods. Data from sleep studies were prospectively collected from cancer patients who undergo a sleep study at the MD Anderson Sleep Center and who consented to participate. All breast cancer patients who underwent a poylsomnogram between 1/30/2007 and 4/1/2009 and signed informed consent were identified. The prospectively collected data included demographics, breast cancer clinical data and treatment, as well as polysomnographic data.Results. Sixty-nine patients (68 female, 1 male) were identified with breast cancer. All patients underwent a formal sleep consultation. The median age was 56 (range: 38 to 75 years), and the median body mass index (BMI) was 33 kg/m2 (21 to 52).Tumor characteristics were as follows: 55 patients (80%) had invasive ductal carcinoma, 8 (12%) had invasive lobular carcinoma, 5 with ductal carcinoma in situ (7%), and 1 unknown (1%). ER/PR was positive in 44 patients (64%), and HER-2 positive in 9 patients (13%). Five patients (7%) had stage 0, 12 (17%) had stage I, 30 (44%) had stage II, 12 (17%) had stage III, and 10 (15%) had stage IV disease. Twenty-four patients (35%) had completed treatment, 10 patients (15%) were receiving chemotherapy, and 34 patients (50%) were receiving hormonal therapy.Fifty-one patients (74%) were referred for daytime sleepiness and fatigue, 11 (16%) for sleep apnea symptoms, 1 (1%) for pulmonary hypertension and 6 (9%) for insomnia. In 55 patients (81%), the median Epworth Sleepiness Score 12 (4 to 21) was consistent with excessive daytime sleepiness.Sleep fragmentation was noted in all patients with a median sleep efficiency of 86% (36% to 98%) and a median Arousal Index of 33 arousals/hour of sleep (7 to 118). Furthermore, the median percentages of delta sleep (deep sleep) and REM sleep were notably diminished at 1% and 13% respectively. Sleep disordered breathing was noted with a median Apnea Hypopnea Index (AHI) of 10 apneas and hypopneas/hour of sleep (0 to 68). Only 2 patients were noted to have significant periodic limb movements with arousals. There was no difference in these abnormalities between treatment groups (chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, or no treatment).Conclusions. This is the first report of polysomnographic data in breast cancer patients. Our data show that sleep disordered breathing (obstructive sleep apnea) is a cause of sleep disturbance in a number of these patients. Conversely, periodic leg movement was not common among these patients. Of interest, the high Arousal Index indicates a high frequency of spontaneous arousals not explained by apnea or hypopnea and these findings did not vary across treatment types. These findings show unique abnormalities in the sleep architecture of breast cancer patients that are provoking and warrant further study.

Abstract
Willebrand's disease is the most frequent inborn coagulopathy and type 3 is its most severe form. Pregnancy and delivery are critical events in women with Willebrand's disease of type 3. Prophylactic treatment for delivery and early postpartum period is recommended. We report the management of pregnancy and successful delivery of a 32-year-old woman with type 3. Prophylactic treatment with 2000 IU of Willebrand's disease factor (WdF) was given twice a day during the delivery day and the day after, and 1000 IU per day during the next three days. The patient did not show any spontaneous metrorrhagia but anemia. No bleeding was observed in the newborn.
