Objective To summarize the efficacy and clinical experiences of emergent coronary artery bypass grafting (E-CABG) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and to discuss the operative opportunity and procedures. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 21 patients with AMI undergoing E-CABG in Sun Yatsen Cardiovascular Disease Hospital between June 1999 and December 2009. Among the patients, there were 14 males and 7 females with their age ranged from 24 to 81 years (63.9±12.4 years). Six patients were operated within 6 hours after the onset of AMI, 7 patients were operated from 6 hours to 3 days after the onset of AMI, and 8 patients were operated from 3 days to 30 days after the onset of AMI. Eight patients had the cardiogenic shock after AMI, one had rupture of ventricular septum and cardiogenic shock, two had rupture of coronary artery after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty, eight had unstable angina and frequent ventricular arrhythmia, one had ventricular fibrillation and cardiac arrest, and one had cardiac trauma. Ten patients were treated with intraaortic balloon pump (IABP). Conventional CABG was performed for 12 patients, off-pump CABG for 5 patients, and on-pump-beating CABG for 4 patients. Results Five patients died after E-CABG with a mortality of 23.8% which was obviously higher than the overall CABG mortality (23.8% vs. 3.1%, χ2=21.184, P<0.05). There were respectively 2, 2 and 1 deaths with a mortality of 33.3%, 28.6% and 12.5% respectively for operations within 6 hours, 6 hours to 3 days and 3 to 30 days after the onset of AMI. The mortality of those patients who were operated within 3 days after AMI was obviously lower (P<0.05). The primary causes of death were low cardiac output syndrome, perioperative acute myocardial infarction after CABG and sapremia. There was one death each for patients operated with off-pump and on-pump-beating CABG. Sixteeen patients were discharged from the hospital. The follow-up was from 6 months to 10 years. There were 6 late deaths among which 5 died of cardiac failure accompanied by pulmonary infection, one died of noncardiac factor. Ten patients survived at present, and the quality of life among 5 patients was unsatisfactory. Conclusion The mortality of E-CABG is obviously higher in patients operated within 3 days of AMI. With the support of IABP, if the operation can be carried out 3 days after the onset of AMI, the surgical success rate will be greatly improved by adopting proper offpump and onpumpbeating procedures.
Abstract: Objective To investigate the application value of the Clinical Score developed by Cleveland University in predicting the occurrence ratio of acute renal failure in Chinese patients after cardiac surgery. Methods A total of 456 adult patients , 230 males and 226 females , with cardiac surgery during August 2008 to July 2009 were included in our study. Their age ranged from 18 to 88 years with an average age of 56.7 years. Before the surgery, Clinical Score was used to predict acute renal failure after cardiac surgery. Based on the score of ≤5, 610, or ≥11, the patients were divided into group Ⅰ (n=401), group Ⅱ (n=42) and group Ⅲ (n=13). The occurrence rate of acute kidney injury (AKI), continuous renal replacement therapy in hospital, multiple organ failure, mortality and other clinical indexes were compared among the 3 groups. Results Occurrence ratio of AKI of group Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ was respectively 2.74%, 28.57% and 76.92% (χ2=73.004, P=0.000). Continuous renal replacement therapy rate was respectively 0.50%, 9.52%, and 38.46% (χ2=36.939, P=0.000). Multiple organ failure rate was respectively 0.50%, 4.76%, and 23.08% (χ2=19.694, P=0.000). Mortality rate was respectively 0.25%, 2.38%, and 15.38% (χ2=14.061, P=0.001). There were significant differences among the three groups. Conclusion The Clinical Score to Predict Acute Renal Failure developed by Cleveland University can effectively predict the occurrence rate of acute renal failure in the Chinese patients after cardiac surgery before the operation. Therefore, corresponding preventive methods can be taken for highrisk patients.
Abstract: Objective To summarize the clinical experience of 13 patients of tricuspid valve replacement and to investigate the indication and method. Methods From January 1994 to December 2005, the clinical datum of the thirteen patients suffering from tricuspid valve disease were reviewed, including rheumatic heart disease 6 cases, congenital heart disease 3 cases, infective endocarditis 3 cases and right ventricular tumor 1 case. All the cases underwent tricuspid valve replacement. Results Two reoperative rheumatic heart disease patients died early after operation and their cardiac function was New York Heart Association (NYHA) class Ⅳ before operation. The followup interval was 3 months to 12 years in 11 cases. There were 2 late death, one died of recurrence of infective endocarditis, and another died of the recurrence of the tumor. One Ebstein anomaly case’s NYHA functional recovered to class Ⅲ, eight cases’s recovered to NYHA classⅠ-Ⅱ. Conclusion The tricuspid valve disease may be a secondary lesion from many causes. Indication of tricuspid valve replacement must be strictly commanded. The late results of tricuspid valve mechanical prostheses replacement is satisfactory.
【摘要】 目的 探討成人幕上低級別膠質瘤(WHO Ⅱ級)患者術后生活質量的影響因素。 方法 回顧性分析2008年10月—2010年5月經手術切除病變、術后病理證實為低級別膠質瘤的115例患者臨床資料,術后隨訪6~24個月。以患者年齡、性別、主要臨床癥狀、病變部位、病變大小及病理結果為自變量,以術后Karnofsky評分(KPS)改善為因變量,采用Logistic回歸分析研究相關影響因素。采用秩和檢驗比較不同組間KPS差異。 結果 隨訪至術后6個月,患者年齡、病變大小、病變部位、切除范圍以及是否有癲癇史在KPS比較中,其結果有統計學意義(Plt;0.05)。隨訪至術后12個月,切除范圍和癲癇史對KPS評分已無影響(Pgt;0.05)。病理類型、術前是否存在神經功能障礙與術后KPS改善在單因素和多因素比較中無統計學意義。 結論 患者年齡≤50歲、術前有癲癇史、腫瘤直徑≤4 cm、病變表淺、腫瘤全切除的患者術后KPS改善好于年齡gt;50歲、術前無癲癇史、腫瘤直徑gt;4 cm、病變深在、腫瘤次全切除的患者。患者術前是否存在神經功能障礙和病理類型與術后生活質量是否改善無明顯關系。復發也是影響患者術后KPS改善的因素。【Abstract】 Objective To assess the quality of life in adults with surgically managed cerebral supratentorial low grade glioma (WHO grade Ⅱ) and the relevant factors. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 115 patients with histologically proven supratentorial low grade glioma enrolled at West China Hosptial from October 2008 to May 2010. Follow-up lasted for 6 to 24 months after operation. Logisitc regression analysis is used to test the relevant factors with age, gender, main clinical manifestations, lesion location, lesion size and pathological results as the independent variables, and Kamofsky postoperative scale (KPS) scores as dependent variable. KPS scores of different groups were analyzed using the rank test. Results After 6 months of follow-up, we found that age, size, location, extent of surgical excision and eplispy history showed a statistical significance in KPS comparison (Plt;0.05). Till the 12th month in the follow-up, the extent of surgical excision and eplispy history were not statistically significant any more (Pgt;0.05). Histology type and neurological deficit had no relationship with KPS improvement in both single factor analysis and multivariate analysis. Conclusions Patients with an age older than 50 years, preoperative epilepsy history, the largest diameter of the tumor less than 4 cm, shallow lesions, and complete tumor resection have a better KPS improvement after operation than those with corresponding opposite conditions. There is no obvious relationship between histology type, neurologic deficits and KPS improvement after operation. Recurrence is also a factor influencing KPS improvement after operation.
In order to detect the flow characteristics of blood samples in the capillary, this paper introduces a blood flow velocity measurement system based on field-programmable gate array (FPGA), linear charge-coupled devices (CCD) and personal computer (PC) software structure. Based on the analysis of the TCD1703C and AD9826 device data sheets, Verilog HDL hardware description language was used to design and simulate the driver. Image signal acquisition and the extraction of the real-time edge information of the blood sample were carried out synchronously in the FPGA. Then a series of discrete displacement were performed in a differential operation to scan each of the blood samples displacement, so that the sample flow rate could be obtained. Finally, the feasibility of the blood flow velocity detection system was verified by simulation and debugging. After drawing the flow velocity curve and analyzing the velocity characteristics, the significance of measuring blood flow velocity is analyzed. The results show that the measurement of the system is less time-consuming and less complex than other flow rate monitoring schemes.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of early internal fixation combined with free anterolateral thigh perforator flap (ALTPF) transplantation in the treatment of open ankle fracture-dislocation. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 13 patients with open ankle fracture-dislocation who were admitted and met the inclusion criteria between January 2021 and May 2024. Among them, there were 9 males and 4 females, with the ages ranging from 23 to 61 years (mean, 45.3 years). Fracture types included 5 cases of simple medial or lateral malleolar fracture-dislocation, 7 cases of bimalleolar (medial and lateral) fracture-dislocation, and 1 case of trimalleolar fracture-dislocation. Additionally, 3 cases were complicated with bone defects (1 medial malleolus defect and 2 lateral malleolus defects). All injuries were classified as type ⅢB according to the Gustilo-Anderson classification for open fractures. The size of wound defects ranged from 7 cm×5 cm to 18 cm×12 cm. The time from injury to surgery was 2-20 hours (mean, 4 hours). All patients underwent emergency thorough debridement upon admission. The fracture-dislocation was temporarily stabilized with an external fixator, and the wound was covered with antibiotic-impregnated bone cement sheets or vacuum sealing drainage. Definitive internal fixation of the fracture and free ALTPF transplantation were performed 5-7 days after the initial emergency procedure. Postoperatively, wound healing, flap survival, and fracture union were monitored. At last follow-up, clinical outcomes were assessed using the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot score. Results All 13 patients were followed up 6-24 months (mean, 8.2 months). All flaps survived completely, and all fractures achieved union, with an union time of 3-11 months (mean, 5.5 months). One patient developed a superficial infection at the wound margin, which healed after regular dressing changes and drainage. No internal fixation-related complication (e.g., deep infection, implant loosening, or secondary ankle instability) were observed. At last follow-up, the total AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score was 78.6±13.5, with 3 excellent, 7 good, 2 fair, and 1 poor cases, yielding an excellent and good rate of 76.9%. ConclusionEarly internal fixation combined with ALTPF transplantation for open ankle fracture-dislocation can shorten the treatment course and maximize the recovery of ankle joint function.
ObjectivesTo systematically review the clinical response rate of CD19 chimeric antigen receptor modified-T cells (CD19CART) in the treatment of B cell hematological malignancies.MethodsPubMed, EMbase, CNKI, WanFang Data and VIP databases were searched to collect cohort studies about CD19CART in the treatment of B cell hematological malignancies from 2000 to 2016. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Then, a single rate meta-analysis was performed by R software and SPSS 16.0 software.ResultsA total of 13 prospective cohort studies were included. The results of single group rate meta-analysis showed that the overall pooled response rate of CD19 CART was 68% (95%CI 0.51 to 0.82). The 6 months and 1-year PFS after CD19 CART infused by Kaplan-Meier were 46% (95%CI 0.35 to 0.56) and 24% (95%CI 0.16 to 0.34), respectively. The median duration was 180 days (95%CI 138 to 222). The COX regression model showed lymphodepletion to be the only influence factor of PFS.ConclusionsCD19 CART has a good clinical response rate in the treatment of B cell hematological malignancies. Lymphodepletion is the only important impact on the response rate and PFS. Due to limited quality and quantity of included studies, more high quality studies are required to verify the above conclusions.
Objective To investigate the post-discharge exercise behavior and factors influencing moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA) in patients undergoing lung surgery. Methods A survey was conducted using the Investigation of Exercise Behavior after Lung Surgery questionnaire and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form (IPAQ-SF) among patients who underwent lung surgery. Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the factors influencing patients’ engagement in MVPA. Results A total of 702 patients were surveyed, including 252 males and 450 females, with an average age of 52.4±10.2 years. Patients with lung cancer accounted for 85.9%. Only 36.0% of the patients had regular exercise habits, while 42.3% did not engage in any physical activity. The three main barriers were physical discomfort (pain, coughing, shortness of breath, etc, 54.7%), lack of professional guidance (41.7%), and concerns about the surgical wound (28.9%). The proportions of patients engaging in vigorous, moderate, and low-intensity physical activity were 5.7%, 28.2%, and 66.1%, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that patients with a personal annual income ≥50000 yuan (OR=1.52, 95%CI 1.01-2.29, P=0.044), high school education or above (OR=1.92, 95%CI 1.33-2.76, P<0.001), and lobectomy (OR=1.44, 95%CI 1.02-2.03, P=0.037) engaged in more MVPA. Conclusion Patients undergoing lung surgery have inadequate physical activity after discharge, particularly lacking in MVPA. Patients with higher income, higher educational levels, and lobectomy are more frequently engaged in MVPA. Measures such as symptom control, providing exercise guidance, and enhancing education on wound care may potentially improve the inadequate physical activity in lung surgery patients after discharge.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the short-term results of sleeve wrapping technique using remnant aortic wall in modified Bentall procedure. MethodsThe patients undergoing modified Bentall procedure with the remnant aortic wall as a sleeve to cover the sewing area of composite valved graft and the aortic annulus for proximal hemostasis between March 2021 and March 2022 in Shenzhen Fuwai Hospital were enrolled. Short-term results were assessed by cardiopulmonary bypass time, aortic clamping time, mechanical ventilation time, ICU stay, postoperative hospital stay, effusion drainage on the first postoperative day, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD), and follow-up results. ResultsA total of 14 patients were collected, including 12 males and 2 females, with a mean age of 55.33±10.57 years. There was no postoperative or follow-up death. Cardiopulmonary bypass time was 147.90±21.29 min, aortic clamping time was 115.70±15.23 min, mechanical ventilation time was 19.42±8.98 h, ICU stay was 99.08±49.42 h, and postoperative hospital stay was 16.33±2.74 d. Thoracic drainage volume was 333.33±91.98 mL on the first postoperative day. Only 2 patients required blood transfusion (4.5 U and 2 U, respectively). During the follow-up of 6.17±3.69 months, there was no death, no aortic or valve-related complications. There was statistical difference in the LVEDD between preoperation and before discharge after surgery (P<0.001), and between half a year after surgery and before discharge after surgery (P<0.001). There was a little decrease of LVEF before discharge after surgery compared with preoperative LVEF, but there was no statistical difference (P=0.219). There was no statistical difference in the LVEF half a year after operation compared with that before operation (P=1.000). Conclusion Sleeve wrapping technique using remnant aortic wall in modified Bentall procedure has good short-term results. This modification may be a simple, effective way in controlling proximal bleeding.
