Objective To investigate the effectiveness and safety of carotid stenting for progressive cerebral watershed infarction (PCWI) patients with ipsilateral internal carotid stenosis or occlusion during the progressive stage. Methods The clinical data of 23 PCWI patients with ipsilateral internal carotid stenosis or occlusion treated with carotid stenting during the progressive stage were analyzed retrospectively. Among them, 18 were severe internal carotid artery stenosis, and 5 were carotid artery occlusion. Carotid artery stenting were performed in patients with severe internal carotid artery stenosis. The first-stage angioplasty and second-stage stenting were performed in patients with internal carotid artery occlusion. The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score and the modified Rankin scale (mRS) were used to evaluate preoperative and postoperative neurologic deficits. Results Twenty-two of 23 patients were stented successfuly, the Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) flow grade was 3, and the technical success rate was 95. 7% . None of the patients demonstrated hyperperfusion in the ipsilateral hemisphere. At day 30 postprocedure, the NHISS scores were significantly improved compared with before procedure (4. 41 ± 1. 88 vs. 10. 00 ± 1. 47; t = 11. 234, P < 0. 001). The preprocedural TIMI flow grade was 3 in 12 patients (52. 2% ). Proportion of patients with TIMI flow grade 3 after procedure was significantly increased compared with before procedure (95. 7% vs. 52. 2% ; χ2 = 11. 274, P = 0. 002). The proportion of patients with mRS scores 0-2 at day 90 after procedure was significantly increased compared with before procedure (69. 6% vs. 0% ; χ2 = 24. 533, P < 0. 001). Conclusions Carotid stenting during the progressive stage is safe and it may improve the prognosis in PCWI patients with ipsilateral internal carotid stenosis or occlusion.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of early carotid artery stenting in treating cerebral watershed infarction patients with carotid artery stenosis. Methods A total of 33 patients with acute cerebral watershed infarction complicated by carotid artery stenosis received carotid artery stenting within one week after the onset of the disease. The clinical safety and efficacy were evaluated. Results The carotid artery stenting was successfully accomplished in all 33 patients with a success rate of 100%. After the procedure, different degree of bradycardia and hypotension was seen in 23 patients, which restored to normal after prompt medication with atropine, dopamine, etc. During the procedure, one patients developed cerebral embolism due to dislodgment of emboli, resulting in contralateral hemiparalysis, and the contralateral limb muscle strength returned to preoperative status after proper treatment. After the treatment, no ipsilateral hemisphere excessive perfusion or cerebral hemorrhage occurred. Thirty days after the treatment, NHISS scores of the patients were obviously improved, which were significantly different from those determined before the treatment (P<0.05). Conclusion For the treatment of acute cerebral watershed infarction, early carotid artery stenting to relieve carotid artery stenosis is quite safe and it may improve the prognosis as well.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) technique used in karyotype analysis of chorionic villi from missed abortion. Methods Feb 2008 to Oct 2008, 91 patients with missed abortion diagnosed by hormonal measurement, type B ultrasound and physical exam matched with 20 normal pregnant women undergoing artificial abortion were enrolled in this study. Chorionic villi was obtained by suction dilation and curettage in aseptic condition, then those villi was cultured and analyzed by traditional cytogenetic karyotyping method, in the mean time, the DNA extracted from villi was detected by MLPA. The results of chromosomal G-banding of chorionic villi were compared between two methods. Results The diagnostic concordance of MLPA and traditional karyotyping was observed in 92% (84/91) cases, there were 84 cases in the case group with diagnostic concordance by traditional karyotyping and MLPA except 7 cases of euploidy could not be detected by MLPA. The 84 cases included 40 normal karyotype,29 trisomy of euchromosome, 1 double trisomy of euchromosome, 10 monosomy X , 1 monosomy X combined with trisomy of euchromosome, 2 chimaera of X chromosome, 1 structural abnormity of euchromosome. Among 7 cases with discordance diagnosis, 2 cases with trisomy and 5 cases with tetrasomy of euchromosome were identified in traditional karyotyping, however, they were all diagnosed with normal disomy by MLPA. Of 20 villi from normal pregnancy, two methods got the consistent results. Conclusion The MLPA was rapid and efficacy method used for analyzing aneuploids in chorionic villi.

Abstract Inoculation of COVID-19 vaccines is an important approach to preventing SARS-CoV-2 infections and reducing the severe disease and mortality of COVID-19. The elderly, children and adolescents, pregnant women, lactating women, patients with chronic diseases and immunocompromised individuals are considered to be susceptible to and at a high risk of COVID-19. Early, safe and effective inoculation of COVID-19 vaccines is critical for the successful building of the population immune barrier against COVID-19. This review, based on data from clinical trials, summarizes the safety and efficacy and safety of COVID-19 vaccines among special populations, so as to provide insights into COVID-19 vaccination among special populations.

Objective To estimate clinical application of multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) for rapid prenatal detection of aneuploid abnormalities in amniotic fluid.Methods Totally 1229 amniotic fluid samples were collected from the pregnant women receving prenatal diagnosis for chromosomal abnormalities in Prenatal Diagnosis Center of Shenzhen Maternity and Child Healthcare Hospital from October 2009 to December 2010.All the samples were investigated independently with both MLPA and G-band karyotyping to detect aneuploidies of chromosomes X,Y,13,18 and 21.A comparison was followed the results acquired from two methods for evaluation of sensitivity and specificity of MLPA.ResultsThirtyeight aneuploidies were detected by G-band karyotyping,in which 34 were nonmosaic aneuploidies and 4were mosaic aneuploidies.MLPA and G-band karyotyping had consistent results in detecting the nonmosaic aneuploidies of chromosomes X,Y,13,18 and 21. Among 4 mosaic aneuploidies detected by G-band karyotyping,2 were confirmed by MLPA independently.Conclusions The sensitivity and specificity of MLPA in detecting the nonmosaic aneuploidies of chromosomes X,Y,13,18 and 21 were clinically acceptable.MLPA provides an efficient,reliable method for rapid detection of aneuploidies.

Objective To analyze the clinical and biochemical,as well as genetic characteristics of a patient with Wiedemann-Steiner syndrome (WDSTS).Methods The clinical data of a patient with WDSTS were collected.The patient was treated with recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) combined with gonadotrophine-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa).Blood samples of the patient and her parents were taken for whole-Exome Sequencing (WES).Relevant literatures about KMT2A mutations were reviewed.Results The 5-year old girl presented with growth retardation,with height 100 cm (-2.4 SD),torpid reaction,and facial anomalies including low hairline,thick eyebrow and hair,hypertelorism,a wide nasal bridge.She had small and puffy hands and feet,excessive hair around back of neck,bilateral forearm and lower limbs.Her GH peak level was 26.6 ng/ml during GH stimulation test.She was re-examined at the age of 10.4 years,with severe short stature (120 cm/-3.58 SD) and a Tanner stage 2 of breast development.Her bone age was found to be approximately 11.4 years.Height increased from 120 cm at the age of 10.4 years to 147.3 cm after rhGH treatment combined with GnRHa for 2.5 years.rhGH therapy alone continued for 1.1 years and a height of 150 cm was reached at the age of 14.9 years,with bone age 14 years.Gene sequencing revealed a de novo frameshift mutation (c.10051 delA,p.Thr3351 Leufs * 17) of exon 27 in KMT2A gene of the patient,but without any mutation in her parents.Through a literature review,seventy-one patients with WDSTS (including present case) presented with intellectual disability (70/71),facial anomalies (70/71),short stature (50/71),and hypertrichosis (39/71).Conclusion Patients presented with short stature,typical facial dysmorphism,intellectual disability,and hypertrichosis should be considered for WDSTS.The mutation p.Thr3351Leufs * 17 in the KMT2A gene detected in our patient is a novel mutation.This is so far the first report of WDSTS patient who was successfully treated with a combination of GH and GnRHa at the onset of puberty to improve her adult height.

Objective:To investigate the safety of intraoperative prophylactic addition of tirofiban on the basis of preoperative oral administration of aspirin and clopidogrel in patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms accepted stent-assisted coil embolization, and explore the effect of tirofiban on perioperative thrombotic events.Methods:The clinical data of 275 patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms who underwent stent assisted coil embolization in our hospital from January 2016 to December 2019 were retrospectively collected. Among them, 110 patients admitted to our hospital from January 2016 to December 2017 only received preoperative oral administration of aspirin and clopidogrel combined with antiplatelet treatment (classic group), and 165 patients admitted to out hospital from January 2018 to December 2019 received intraoperative prophylactic addition of tirofiban on the basis of preoperative oral administration of aspirin and clopidogrel (improved group). The differences of perioperative safety and thrombotic events between the two groups were compared and analyzed.Results:The incidence of intraoperative visual thrombotic events in the classic group and the improved group were 6.4% (7/110) and 1.2% (2/165), respectively, with significant difference ( P<0.05); the incidence of postoperative thrombotic events was 4.5% (5/110) and 2.4% (4/165), respectively, without significant difference ( P>0.05); the incidence of urethrorrhagia was 9.1% (10/110) and 21.2% (35/165), respectively, with significant difference ( P<0.05); and the incidence of gingival hemorrhage was 13.6% (15/110) and 19.4% (32/165), respectively, without significant difference ( P>0.05). No acute gastrointestinal hemorrhage or cerebral hemorrhage occurred in both groups; urethrorrhagia and gingival hemorrhage were transient and relieved spontaneously. Conclusion:Intraoperative prophylactic addition of tirofiban on the basis of preoperative oral administration of aspirin and clopidogrel can reduce the incidence of intraoperative visual thrombotic events without increasing the risk of hemorrhage in stent-assisted coil embolization of unruptured intracranial aneurysms.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the effect of 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) and nanoparticles of amorphous calcium phosphate (NACP) on the protein-repellent property of dental adhesive.

METHODSMPC and NACP were incorporated into SBMP as the test group. Scotchbond Multi-Purpose (SBMP) was used as control group. Human dentin shear bond strengths were measured. Protein adsorption onto samples was determined by micro bicinchoninic acid (BCA) method. A dental plaque microcosm biofilm model with human saliva as inoculum was used to investigate biofilm viability.

RESULTSThe dentin bond strength of modified group was (28.7±2.2) MPa, which was not significantly different from that of the SBMP control group. The amount of protein adsorption in the modified group and the SBMP control group were (0.21±0.02) µg/cm(2) and (4.17±0.45) µg/cm(2) respectively. Lactic acid production of biofilms in modified group and SBMP control were (7.71 ± 1.01) mmol/L and (19.18 ± 2.34) mmol/L repectively.

CONCLUSIONSMPC-NACP based dental adhesive greatly reduce the protein adsorption and bacterial adhesion, without compromising dentin shear bond strength. This novel bonding agent may have wide application.
