Objective To evaluate long-term outcome of simultaneous kissing sirolimus-eluting stent (SKS) technique versus single sirolimus-eluting stent (SSS) technique for percutaneous treatment of true coronary bifurcation lesions in large-size vessels.Methods This randomized study assigned 190 patients with a coronary bifurcation lesion to simultaneous kissing stenting (SKS) in both main and side branches and 190 patients to main vessel stenting only (SSS).The endpoints included restenosis,death,non-fatal myocardial infarction,target-lesion revascularization (TLR),stent thrombosis,success rate of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and the operation duration.Results During 1-year follow-up,the SKS group and the SSS group had similar incidences of overall re stenosis [30 ( 15.8 % ) vs.24 ( 15.2 % ),x2=0.000,P<0.05],mainbranch restenosis [20 ( 10.5% ) vs.16 ( 10.1% ),x2=0.003,P > 0.05];side-branch restenosis [13 ( 6.8% )vs.23 ( 14.6% );x2=4.73,P<0.05];death [2 ( 1.1% ) vs.1 ( 0.6% ),x2=0.026,P > 0.05],non-fatal myocardial infarction [4 (2.1% ) vs.2 ( 1.3% ),x2=0.034,P > 0.05],TLR [23 ( 12.1% ) vs.20 ( 12.7% ),x2=0.000,P > 0.05] and stent thrombosis [4 (2.1% ) vs.2 ( 1.3 % ),x2=0.034,P > 0.05] and a shorter operation duration[(20 ± 8) min vs.(45 ± 9) min,t=1.98,P<0.05] than the SSS group.Conclusion For true coronary bifurcation lesions in large-size vessels,SKS and SSS have similar long-term outcomes.The SKS group has a higher success rate of PCI and shorter operation duration.

Objective To explore the impact of MR imaging T2 fluid-attenuated inversion-recovery sequence (MRI T2Flair) excision extension and postoperative chemotherapy in prognosis of patients with glioblastoma (GBM). Methods A retrospective study of clinical data and treatment efficacy of 17 patients with GBM, admitted to our hospital from April 2012 to August 2016, was performed. All patients were performed tumor resection by using awake anesthesia, neuroimage navigation, and intraoperative direct electrical stimulation. The impacts of the resection extent of T2Flair lesions and adjuvant chemotherapy on the prognosis of glioblastoma were analyzed. Results T1 enhanced lesions in these 17 patients were totally resected. The median follow-up duration was 18 months (8 months to 52 months). Median survival time was 20 months; the survival time of patients with resection ranges of 0%-10%, 10%-25% and more than 25% were 19, 22 and 24 months, respectively, without statistical differences (P>0.05). The patients adopted less than 6 courses chemotherapy had a 19-month-long median survival time, and those adopted 6 courses or more courses chemotherapy had a 33-month-long median survival time, with statistically significant difference (P<0.05). Conclusion When T1 enhanced lesions are totally resected, the resection extent of T2Flair lesions has no influence on patients survival time; however, patients accepted 6 or more courses of chemotherapy have a better survival.
