Gram-negative bacteria secrete outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) that play critical roles in intraspecies, interspecies, and bacteria-environment interactions. Some OMVs, such as those produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, have previously been shown to possess antimicrobial activity against competitor species. In the current study, we demonstrate that OMVs from Burkholderia thailandensis inhibit the growth of drug-sensitive and drug-resistant bacteria and fungi. We show that a number of antimicrobial compounds, including peptidoglycan hydrolases, 4-hydroxy-3-methyl-2-(2-nonenyl)- quinoline (HMNQ) and long-chain rhamnolipid are present in or tightly associate with B. thailandensis OMVs. Furthermore, we demonstrate that HMNQ and rhamnolipid possess antimicrobial and antibiofilm properties against methicillin- resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). These findings indicate that B. thailandensis secretes antimicrobial OMVs that may impart a survival advantage by eliminating competition. In addition, bacterial OMVs may represent an untapped resource of novel therapeutics effective against biofilm- forming and multidrug-resistant organisms.

Objectives. Despite the efficacy of surgical treatments, the high rate of recurrence in juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma (JNA) after surgery remains an unresolved problem. The present study comprehensively analyzed the risk factors and characteristics of JNA recurrence, providing clinical guidance for reducing recurrence. Methods. A total of 123 patients who underwent surgery for JNA between 1997 and 2019 at a single hospital were analyzed retrospectively. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to assess the clinical risk factors for the recurrence of JNA. The relapse-free survival and annual cumulative recurrence rates were analyzed for subgroups defined according to clinical parameters. Results. After screening, 78 of the 123 patients were included in the present study. The main risk factors associated with JNA recurrence included the year of diagnosis, tumor size, sphenoid bone invasion, Radkowski stage, surgical approach, and intraoperative bleeding. Importantly, the surgical approach and sphenoid bone invasion were independent prognostic factors affecting recurrence. Patients who underwent endoscopic surgery without sphenoid bone invasion exhibited longer relapse-free survival. In the present study, the overall cumulative recurrence rate of JNA was 38.7%, and recurrence occurred mainly in the first year after the initial surgery. Conclusion. Endoscopic surgery achieved better relapse-free survival in JNA patients, and patients with sphenoid bone invasion should be carefully explored to avoid residual JNA. The recurrence rate of JNA differed among subgroups defined based on clinical parameters and was highest in the first year after surgery. Computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging, along with close follow-up, should be performed strictly within 1 year after the primary operation.
