The study aims to summarize topical and frontier issues in sepsis and exosomes and provide advice and resources for researchers working in related disciplines. Publications on exosomes in sepsis from 2004 to 2022 were extracted from the Web of Science Core Collection database. VOSviewer 1.6.18 and CiteSpace 6.1.3 were used to conduct the bibliometric analysis. ⋯ Singer m, 2016, Jama-j am med assoc was the most co-cited reference. "Mesenchymal stem cells derived exosomes," "microRNAs," "apoptosis," and "immunomodulatory therapy" are the current research hot spots and frontiers. This study provides a comprehensive overview of the current status and trends in sepsis and exosomal research. Researchers working in this area will benefit from the hot spots and trends of exosomes in sepsis discovered through this study.

Review Case Reports
Anomaly originated flexor digitorum superficialis muscle of the small finger: A case report.
We present a clinical case of flexor digitorum superficialis (FDS) muscle belly of the small finger originating from the palm of a patient undergoing carpal tunnel surgery with a literature review. ⋯ Asymptomatic small finger FDS muscle anomalies can occur, as demonstrated in this case study. Thus, physicians should familiarize themselves with small finger FDS muscle anomalies during interactions with patients to facilitate future treatments of patient complaints related to the hand, as well as wrist laceration or trauma requiring hand exploration.

After 30 years of development, laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair (LIHR) has become the main method for treating adult inguinal hernia. LIHR is more standardized, the approach of single-port laparoscopic hernioplasty, the advantages of robotic inguinal hernioplasty, the application of new patches and the selection of surgical methods for different populations have become the focus and difficulty of current research. This article summarized the research progress of LIHR in recent years. Different keywords and phrases including inguinal hernia, LIHR, transabdominal laparoscopic preperitoneal hernia repair, and total extraperitoneal hernia repair were used to search the PubMed, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Web of Science databases for related original and review articles that serve the aim of this article well, which was to perform a nonsystematic review of the development, progress, and current status of LIHR.

Transnasal humidified rapid-insufflation ventilatory exchange (THRIVE) is used in tracheostomy but not in cases of airway obstruction. This case report explores the use of THRIVE for managing airway obstruction during tracheostomy in patients with subglottic and tracheal stenosis, thereby addressing the current knowledge gap and exploring its potential for airway management. ⋯ THRIVE could be considered a temporary measure to enhance oxygenation before initiating a definitive treatment strategy.
