BACKGROUND: Conventional endovascular stent-graft exclusion for Debakey Ⅲ type aortic dissection is complicated and the complication rates are relatively high. Moreover, their operating techniques have increased the risk of rupture of laminated break. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of improved endovascular stent-graft exclusion for Debakey Ⅲ type aortic dissection by the innovative methods of interventional therapy. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A retrospective case analysis. Cases were selected from Department of Cardiology, Affiliated Hospital of Gannan Medical College between October 2006 and March 2009. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 30 male patients with Debakey Ⅲ type aortic dissection were selected from Department of Cardiology, Affiliated Hospital of Gannan Medical College, aged 43-70(53.5±12.8) years. The time of onset was 5-45 days. METHODS: All patients underwent improved endovascular stent-graft exclusion for Debakey Ⅲ type aortic dissection by the innovative methods of intervsntional therapy. Fine wire bundled endovascular stent-graft were implanted by the innovative transmission and delivery methods in all patients, of which branch stent were implanted when the distance from the break of descending aorta to left subclavian artery was less than 10 mm. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: After the success of operation, aortic angiography was performed to detect stent-graft position, shape, break closure, internal leakage, and patency of the aortic arch branches. The situation of post-operative complications were observed. All cases were followed up by MRI to understand the complications such as aneurysm rupture, internal leakage and stent migration. RESULTS: A total of 33 fine wire bundled endovascular stent-graft were successfully implanted in 30 patients, including 4 branch stents. After the operation, 5 patients were verified endoleak, 3 of them were resolved by repeated stent distension and 2 were treated by implantation of another stent. Three months after the operation, 1 patient showed new rupture at the distal stent and then was successfully implanted a new stent. Three cases showed numbness of right lower extremity and 1 case showed intermittent claudication. In follow-up of 3-32 months, MRI scanning showed the reduction of the false cavity with the formation of intraluminal thrombus, the enlargement of true cavity, and no complications such as tumor rupture, internal leakage or stent displacement were found. CONCLUSION: Fine wire bundled endovascular stent-graft and the innovative methods of interventional therapy for endovascular thoracic aorta repair is an effective, less invasive and safe surgery with fast postoperative recovery, high success rate and few complications for patients with Debakey Ⅲ type aortic dissection, especially for high-risk patients.

Objective To systematically evaluate the intervention effect of social psychological intervention on the health status of patients with bariatric surgery(BS).Methods 8 databases,including PubMed,PsycInfo,and Embase and Clinic Trials,were retrieved to recruit randomized controlled trials with computer from database establishing time to Sep.2022.Independent quality evaluation was conducted by 2 researchers,and Meta-analysis was performed by the RevMan5.3 software.Results Totally 23 RCTs were included.The meta-analysis showed that psychosocial interventions in BS patients improve emotional eating and binge eating behavior[SMD=-0.44,95％CI(-0.78,-0.09),P=0.010;MD=-5.88,95％CI(-8.65,-3.11),P＜0.001],promote better quality of life[SMD=0.30,95％CI(0.02,0.59),P=0.040]and physical mobility,alleviates anxiety and depression[SMD=-0.37,95％CI(-0.67,-0.08),P=0.010;SMD=-0.59,95％CI(-0.84,-0.33),P＜0.001].However,the effect on improving eating disorders[MD=-0.01,95％CI(-0.19,0.18),P=0.950]is not significant,and subgroup analysis results of different intervention measures and follow-up times showed that there was no statistically significant difference in weight changes between the social psychological intervention group and the control group.Conclusion Psychosocial intervention can effectively improve the mental state and eating behavior of the bariatric surgery patients,improve the quality of life and increase physical activity of patients.However,the effect of intervention on eating disorder and weight change is still unclear.More high-quality clinical studies need to be carried out for further verification.
