Objective To analyze the etiology of duodenal trauma and improve the result of its diagnosis and treatment. Methods The data of 28 cases with duodenal trauma during March 1968 to September 2007 was analyzed retrospectively. Results Twenty-two (78.6%) patients had blunt injuries. The rate of duodenal trauma and associated injuries was 21.4%(6/28)and 89.3% (25/28) respectively. The easiest injury part on the deseending part constituting was 46.4% (13/28) ,the secondary on the horizontal part constituting was 21.4% (6/28).The postoperative complication rate was 28.6% (8/28), the mortality rate was 3.6% (1/28), and the cure rate was 96.4% (27/28). Conclusions The incidence of blunt injuries is high compared with other kinds of duodenal trauma in China. It suggests that the early diagnosis, exploration proper surgical management,and intensive postoperative care are emphasized to reduce the mortality and complication rate.

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of two kinds of homemade sirolimus-eluting stents (Firebird and Excel) for treatment of acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods The 249 consecutive patients with STEMI who underwent PCI were randomly divided into two groups: Excel group (n=136) and Firebird group (n=113). They were followed up for 6-24 months, and coronary angiography was reviewed average 12 months later. The primary endpoints were major adverse cardiac events, including death, reinfarction and target vessel revascularization. The second endpoints included late luminal loss and restenosis 12 months after treatment. Results There were no significant differences in baseline data, coronary arterial lesion before operation, and immediateness condition after PCI between the two groups (all P＞0.05). Within follow-up, there were 2 (1.47%) death cases and 1 (0.88%) death case, 1 (0.74%) and 1 (0.88%) nonfatal myocardial infarction case, 2 (1.47%) and 2 (1.77%) target vessel revascularization cases in the two groups respectively (all P＞0.05). There were no significant differences in late luminal loss of in-stent and in-segment, the rates of in-stent restenosis, in-segment restenosis and stent thrombosis, the in-stent minimal lumen diameter and in-segment minimal lumen diameter between the two groups (all P＞0.05). Conclusions The two kinds of homemade sirolimus-eluting stents may have similar efficacy and safety in patients with STEMI treated with primary PCI.

Objective To analyze the methods and strategy of treatment for multiple injuries in the use of damage control operation, and improve the treatment level and cure rate for multiple injuries.Method From March 2005 to March 2009, 21 patients with multiple injuries were treated by damage control strategy and performed the determinacy operation after the resuscitation in ICU. Results In 21 patients, 16 cases (76.2%) were cured and 5 cases (23.8%) were dead. The injury severity score of 5 dead cases were exceeded 35 points. Conclusions In the strategy of damage control operation, the surgical operation is considered to be a part of the total resuscitative procedure, not the ending of treatment. To those multiple injuries patients, it is safe and effective to perform the damage control operation. It has practical value in clinical treatment.

Objective To determine whether field triage would reduce median contact-to-device ( C2D ) time in patients with ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction ( STEMI ) . Methods Consecutive patients with STEMI underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention( PCI) from March 2010 to February 2014 in Shanghai Pudong Gongli Hospital were analyzed. Patients were divided into two groups. A total of 121 patients were admitted by field triage and 101 patients by non-field triage. The primary study point was C2D time and the study points secondary included ( door-to-balloor, D2B) time, peak Troponin I ( TnI) levels, hospital mortality and 30 days follow-up mortality. Results Baseline and procedural characteristics between the two groups were comparable. Comparing to non-field triage group, the C2D time was reduced [(92. 0 ± 56. 0)min vs. (131. 0 ± 61. 0)min,P﹤0. 01]. The D2B time was lower in the field triage group vs. the non-field triage group [(55. 0 ±26. 0)min vs. (96. 0 ±31. 0)min,P﹤0. 01]. The percentage of patients with C2D time less than 90 minutes increased significantly from 85. 1% to 98. 3%( P﹤0. 01 ) in the field triage group. Peak TnI level was significantly reduced in the field triage group [(23. 5 ±22. 0) μg/L vs. (43. 5 ± 39. 0) μg/L,P﹤0. 01]. In-hospital mortality and 30 days follow-up mortality did not significantly differ between the 2 groups (3. 3% and 3. 0%, P=0. 885;3. 3% and 5. 0%, P=0. 544, respectively). Conclusions In STEMI patients, field triage was associated with significantly reduced C2D and D2B times.

Objective To investigate the impacts of treating stratege for non-infarct related artery on clinical prognosis in elderly patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) after urgent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods From Augst 2007 to Augst 2010,a total of 75 elderly AMI patients (aged 75 years and over) were treated by urgent PCI and confirmed as multivessel coronary disease in our hospital. Among them,30 patients received medicine combined with PCI once again (PCI group) and 45 patients received only medicine treatemt (medicine group).The major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and results ot coronary angiography after treatment for average one year were compared between the two groups. Results There were no significant differences in the rates of in stent restenosis[1 case(2.2 ％)vs.0 case],late loss of in-segment lumen [5 cases(11.1％)vs.3 cases(10.0％)],stent thrombosis[1 case(2.2％)vs.1 case(3.3％)] and larget vessel revascularization [2 cases (4.4 ％ ) vs.1 case ( 3.3 ％) ] between medicine group and PCI group (x2=0.00,0.00.2.03 and 0.00,all P＞0.05).The propertions of angina recurrence and second hospital admission for heart diseases were lower in PCI group than in medicine group [36 cases (80.0％)vs.14 cases(46.7％),18 cases(40.0％)vs.5 cases(16.7％),x2=9.00,4.61,P＜0.01and P＜0.05].However,no differences were found in the secondary heart failure,recurrent nonfatal myocardial infarction,severe arrhythmia,all- cause death and mortality rate of cardiovascular disease between the two groups (x2 =0.09,0.00,0.00,0.00 and 0.00,all P＞ 0.05). Conclusions Compared with single medicine therapy,the medicine combined with PCI for non- infarct-related artery may decrease the rates of angina recurrence and second hospital admission for heart diseases in elderly patients with AMI.

Prostate cancer (PCa) is a pernicious tumor with high heterogeneity, which creates a conundrum for making a precise diagnosis and choosing an optimal treatment approach. Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mp-MRI) with anatomical and functional sequences has evolved as a routine and significant paradigm for the detection and characterization of PCa. Moreover, using radiomics to extract quantitative data has emerged as a promising field due to the rapid growth of artificial intelligence (AI) and image data processing. Radiomics acquires novel imaging biomarkers by extracting imaging signatures and establishes models for precise evaluation. Radiomics models provide a reliable and noninvasive alternative to aid in precision medicine, demonstrating advantages over traditional models based on clinicopathological parameters. The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of related studies of radiomics in PCa, specifically around the development and validation of radiomics models using MRI-derived image features. The current landscape of the literature, focusing mainly on PCa detection, aggressiveness, and prognosis evaluation, is reviewed and summarized. Rather than studies that exclusively focus on image biomarker identification and method optimization, models with high potential for universal clinical implementation are identified. Furthermore, we delve deeper into the critical concerns that can be addressed by different models and the obstacles that may arise in a clinical scenario. This review will encourage researchers to design models based on actual clinical needs, as well as assist urologists in gaining a better understanding of the promising results yielded by radiomics.
