Objective To evaluate prognostic impact of treatment with Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) or upper airway surgery on the patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and coronary heart disease (CHD). Methods Database search in The Cochrane Library, PubMed, OVID and CBM (from establishment dates to October 2009) were conducted. Cohort studies and randomized controlled trials of OSA with CPAP or upper airway surgery in CHD patients were identified. We assessed the quality of the included trials and extracted the relevant data. Statistical analysis was performed using RevMan 4.3.2 software. Results A total of 4 cohort studies involving 945 participants were included. The results of meta-analysis were as follows: a) there were no significant differences in the rate of late lumen loss and 10-year mortality between CHD patients with OSA treated by CPAP and those without OSA (RR=1.84, 95%CI 0.73 to 4.68, P=0.20; RR=0.80, 95%CI 0.24 to 2.64, P=0.71). b) CPAP or uvulopalatopharyngoplasty used in the treatment of OSA on CHD patients after PCI had a significant decrease in the rate of 5-year cardiac death when compared with those untreated OSA patients (RR=0.34, 95%CI 0.14 to 0.82, P=0.02). But there were no differences in the rate of 5-year all-cause mortality, major adverse cardiac events (MACE) between the two groups respectively (RR=0.66, 95%CI 0.39 to 1.10, P=0.11; RR=0.97, 95%CI 0.81 to 1.15, P=0.69). c) CPAP or upper airway surgery in treating OSA significantly reduced the risk of MACE occurrence during the 86.5±39 months follow-up period (RR=0.22, 95%CI 0.07 to 0.72, P=0.01). Conclusion Current evidence indicates that treating OSA with CPAP or upper airway surgery in CHD patients might be associated with a decrease in the risk of cardiac death. But more studies are necessary to evaluate prognostic impact of treatment with CPAP or upper airway surgery on the patients with OSA and CHD. However, due to the limited quantity and quality of the included studies, more high-quality studies are need.
Objective To explore the value of multidetector row helical CT （MDCT） in the diagnosis of lymph node metastasis in adenocarcinoma of esophaogastric junction （AEG）， and to study the pattern of lymph node metastasis of it. Methods The MDCT images of 60 patients with AEG who underwent operation in our hospital from Jan. 2011to Oct. 2012 were collected， in order to explore the value of MDCT in the diagnosis of lymph node metastasis in AEG， and to study the pattern of lymph node metastasis of it. Results With diameter upper 8 mm and the difference of the mean value of enhanced degree upper 70 Hu as the standard of lymph node metastasis， the Kappa value （0.819 and 0.718），sensitivity （83.1% and 91.8%）， and specificity （78.9% and 83.5%） were all optimal. The lymph node metastasis rate was significantly higher in serosa invasion group than those of non-invasion group （P＜0.05）. The metastatic area of lymphnodes mainly concentrated around cardia （No. 7， 8， and 9 group）， lesser curvature of the stomach， celiac axis， and hepato-gastric ligament （No. 10， 11， 12， and 14 group） with the metastasis rate of 83.8% and 82.3%， respectively. Conclusion MDCT is useful to confirm the features， location， and rules of lymph node metastasis in patients with AEG， which is helpful in accurately cleaning the lymph nodes.

ObjectiveTo analyze the clinicopathologic features of thyroid tumors with RAS gene mutation.MethodThe clinicopathologic data of thyroid tumor patients who underwent surgical treatment or biopsy and were diagnosed pathologically at the Department of Pathology of the Shanghai Sixth People’s Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from January 2021 to June 2023, were collected. ResultsA total of 798 patients with thyroid tumors who met the inclusion criteria were collected, including 747 cases of follicular epithelial tumors and 51 cases of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC). Among 798 patients, the RAS gene mutations were detected in 36 cases (4.5%), including 25 (69.4%) patients with NRAS mutations, 8 (22.2%) patients with HRAS mutations, 3 (8.3%) patients with KRAS mutations, and 4 (1.1%) patients accompanied with TERT promoter mutations. Among 36 patients with RAS mutant thyroid tumors, the male to female ratio was 7∶11, with a median age of 48.5 years, with an average tumor diameter of 2 cm. The mutation rate of RAS gene in different histological types of thyroid tumors, from high to low, was highest in the thyroid follicular carcinoma (FTC, 25.9%), followed by differentiated high grade thyroid carcinoma (20.0%), anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (20.0%), noninvasive follicular thyroid neoplasm with papillary like nuclear features (18.2%), follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (FVPTC, 16.0%), and well-differentiated thyroid tumour of uncertain malignant potential (WT-UMP, 12.8%), the mutation rates of RAS gene in the FTC, FVPTC, and WT-UMP were significantly higher than that of the classical papillary thyroid carcinoma (P<0.001 1), and the mutation rate of RAS gene was the lowest in the classical papillary thyroid carcinoma (1.5%). A total of 35 patients were effectively followed up with an average follow-up period of 21.4 months, 6 of whom had cervical lymph node metastasis, 4 patients developed distant metastasis, and 1 patient with anaplastic thyroid carcinoma died. ConclusionsRAS gene mutation can occur in thyroid follicular differentiated tumors and MTC. NRAS mutation is more common. The mutation rate is the highest in FTC, is the lowest in classical papillary thyroid carcinoma. Differential diagnosis combined with tissue morphology and other molecular changes can provide a reference for guiding treatment and evaluating prognosis.
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of biportal endoscopic discectomy combined with annulus fibrosus suture in the treatment of recurrent lumbar disc herniation (RLDH). Methods The clinical data of patients with RLDH who underwent biportal endoscopic discectomy combined with annulus fibrosus suture using a single-use suture device at Mianyang Orthopaedic Hospital between May 2020 and July 2022 were retrospectively collected. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scores for low back and leg pain and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) scores on postoperative Day 3 and at the last follow-up were used to assess pain and functional status. Postoperative lumbar CT, MRI, and dynamic X-rays were obtained to evaluate the extent of decompression, disc removal, and spinal stability. Clinical efficacy during follow-up was assessed using the MacNab criteria since postoperative 3 months. Results Twenty-one RLDH patients (16 males, 5 females) with a mean age of (45.14±15.26) years (range: 17-62 years) were included. The involved segments were L3-L4 in 1 case, L4-L5 in 9 cases, and L5-S1 in 11 cases. All surgeries were successfully completed without complications such as nerve injury, symptomatic epidural hypertension, dural tear, cerebrospinal fluid leakage, or infection. All patients were followed up for a mean duration of (11.38±3.51) months (range: 4-17 months). No recurrence of disc herniation or segmental instability was observed during follow-up. Significant improvements were seen in VAS scores for low back pain (2.90±0.70, 1.38±0.81), leg pain (2.33±0.58, 1.29±0.46), and ODI scores [(24.12±5.05)%, (11.29±1.86)%] on postoperative Day 3 and at the last follow-up compared to the preoperative values [5.90±1.09, 6.10±0.77, (57.08±9.72)%; all P<0.05]. According to the MacNab criteria, the clinical efficacy was rated as excellent in 16 cases, good in 3 cases, and fair in 2 cases, yielding an excellent-good rate of 90.5%. Conclusion Biportal endoscopic discectomy with annulus fibrosus suture is a safe and effective treatment for RLDH, demonstrating favourable clinical outcomes and warranting further research and application.
Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of endoscopy-assisted anterior cervical discectomy and fusion for cervical spondylosis. Methods The clinical data of patients treated with water medium endoscopy-assisted anterior cervical discectomy and fusion for cervical spondylosis at Mianyang Orthopedic Hospital between September 2021 and September 2023 were retrospectively collected. The surgical efficacy and nerve injury recovery were evaluated based on the Neck Disabilitv Index (NDI), Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score, improvement rate of JOA score, Cobb angle and height changes of the affected intervertebral space before surgery and at the last follow-up, as well as the occurrence of surgical complications. Results A total of 29 patients were included, including 18 males and 11 females. The average age was (52.34±8.96) years, and the average duration of illness was (17.31±6.60) months. The average follow-up time was (11.69±3.41) months. At the last follow-up, the patients’ NDI (3.55±3.09 vs. 17.28±5.51), Cobb angle [(15.25±4.83) vs. (?1.34±7.50)°], intervertebral height [(8.04±0.82) vs. (4.67±0.95) mm], and JOA score (15.90±1.11 vs. 11.17±1.65) improved compared to preoperative levels (P<0.05). The JOA score improvement rate assessment showed that 16 cases were excellent, 11 cases were fine, 2 cases were moderate, and the excellent and fine rate was 93.10%. All patients did not experience serious complications after surgery. Conclusion Water medium endoscopy-assisted anterior cervical discectomy and fusion for cervical spondylosis has good clinical efficacy and safety.
