Objective To evaluate the endovascular treatment of diffuse aortoiliac occlusive diseases. Methods Thirty-two patients underwent endovascular treatment in which rest pain was found in 84.38%, foot local gangrene in 15.62%. Mean age was 69.7 years (range, 52 years to 81 years) and 71.9% was male. Trans Atlantic Inter-Society Consensus C and D disease was respectively in 40.6% and 59.4% patients. Mean length of vasculopathy was (14.6 ± 1.2) cm (range, 4.5 cm to 19.5 cm) All patients had prohibitive risk for open revascularization. With the approach from femoral artery or brachial artery, combined techniques, such as recanahzation, balloon dilation, stent placement and concomitant common femoral endarterectomy were used. Results Technical success was achieved in twenty-nine patients(90.63%). The complication rate was 3.45%. Clinical status was markedly improved in eight cases (27.59%) and moderately improved in twenty-one cases(72.41%). Mean postoperative ABI was 0.73 ± 0.12, mean preoperative ABI was 0.32 ± 0.09. Significant differences were seen between postoperative ABI and preoperative ABI(P<0.05). Mean time of follow-up was (13.9±6.2) months. At 6 months, primary patency was 81.82% and secondary patency was 89.09%. At 12 months, primary patency was 63.64% and secondary patency was 80.18%. Conclusion Combined multiple endovascular technique is a safe and effective method in the treatment of poor risk diffuse aortoiliac occlusive diseases.

Objective The aim of this study was to establish an acute gastric mucosal injury(AGMI)rat model induced by hydrochloric acid(HCl)at different concentration gradients and to investigate the effects of intravenous injection of evans blue(EB)at various concentrations and dosages on survival rate and superficial extravasation.Methods(1)Wistar rats were randomly assigned to five weight-based groups:150～180 g,180～200 g,200～250 g,300～400 g,400～500 g.Each group was further subdivided into eight subgroups based on HCl concentration,specifically:0.40,0.45,0.50,0.55,0.60,0.65,0.70 mol/L HCl,along with a control group treated with saline.This result ed in a total of 40 subgroups,with three rats per subgroup,summing up to 120 animals in total.The survival rate of rats 24 hours post-modeling was assessed,and the interaction between body weight and HCl concentration on rat survival was analyzed.Following the establishment of five graded HCl concentrations,gastric mucosal pathological changes were observed microscopically using hematoxylin-eosin staining(HE)staining.(2)From these result,the highest suitable concentration of HCl was selected to prepare the AGMI model.Subsequently,rats were randomly allocated into different groups based on the concentration and dose of EB,specifically:EB 1(0.5％,0.4 mL),EB 2(1％,0.1 mL/100 g),EB 3(1％,0.2 mL/100 g),EB 4(2％,0.1 mL/100 g),EB 5(2％,0.2 mL/100 g),and EB 6(5％,0.1 mL).Each group consisted of five rats,totaling 30 animals.The survival rate and extent of dermal exudation were evaluated 24 hours post-injection of EB.Results(1)Post-modeling symptoms in AGMI rats intensified with increasing concentrations of HCl,with the 24-hour survival rate in all weight groups being 0％for both 0.65 mol/L and 0.70 mol/L HCl.Kaplan-Meier survival curves indicated significant differences in survival rates among rats in different HCl concentration groups(P＜0.001).Furthermore,a significant interaction effect between HCl concentration and body weight on rat survival time was observed(P＜0.001).The five gradient HCl concentrations established were from 0.40、0.45、0.50、0.55、0.60 mol/L.Histological observations revealed that the degree of inflammatory cell infiltration in the gastric mucosa of AGMI rats escalated with increasing HCl concentrations.(2)AGMI rats prepared with 0.60 mol/L HCl and injected with 5％EB(0.1 mL)had a 24 h survival rate of only 40％.Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed no significant differences in survival rates among AGMI rats under different concentrations and dosages of EB(P＞0.05).Analysis of superficial extravasation revealed that skin and eye color were lighter in EB 1 group rats,with fewer extravasation points,while rats in EB 4 and EB 5 groups exhibited more apparent skin color changes and extravasation.One-way ANOVA further confirmed that the number of superficial EB extravasation points in the EB 3,EB 4,and EB 5 groups was significantly higher than that in EB 1 group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Conclusions HCl modeling successfully achieved a setting of multiple precise concentration gradients.Gastric lavage with HCl concentrations ranging from 0.40 mol/L to 0.60 mol/L in rats with a fasting body weight of 180～200 g was used to successfully prepare an AGMI model.Intravenous injection of 2％EB(0.2 mL/100 g)can facilitate the study and analysis of the distribution characteristics of superficial EB extravasation points in AGMI rats over time and as the condition progresses.

OBJECTIVETo make a system review of the effects of Bushenhuoxue (kidney-tonifying and blood-activating prescription), a category of compound Chinese medicines, on benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and its side effects.

METHODSAll the research articles about Chinese medicines treating BPH from January 1978 to February 2003 were retrieved using the methods of international evidence-based medicine (EBM), and their qualities were evaluated based on JADAD standard and concealment of research allocation. Then the included articles went through META-analysis with Revman 4.2 software.

RESULTSThe efficacy of Bushenhuoxue on BPH was better than Qianliekang but not statistically different from finasteride. The combined use of Bushenhuoxue with surgery had no statistical difference from mere surgical treatment. Four articles reported the side effects of this compound Chinese medicine including upset and pain in the abdomen, nausea, diarrhea and dryness of the nose.

CONCLUSIONMassive, multi-center and randomized controlled clinical trials should be conducted to find out more effective methods for treating BPH with Chinese medicines based on the improvement of measurable symptom evaluation method and for evaluating their side effects.

Objective To investigate the changes in psychological state after occupational exposure in the AIDS occupational exposure population and related influencing factors,and to provide baseline data and a basis for related departments to conduct mental health prevention and intervention for personnel with occupational AIDS exposure.Methods AIDS risk assessment was performed for all personnel with occupational AIDS exposure in 2014 in Nanning,China,and the Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL-90) psychological scale was used for psychological state evaluation at 24 hours,1 week,and 3 months after occupational exposure in all persons who met the research criteria.Results Most of the persons with occupational AIDS exposure came from secondary and tertiary hospitals (85％),and nurses accounted for the highest percentage (78.3％).The age ranged from 21 to 50 years,and the mean age was 31.02+7.92 years.The persons with occupational AIDS exposure aged 20～29 years accounted for the highest percentage (51.6％),and most persons (76.7％) graduated from junior colleges.Compared with the adult norm,there was significant increases in the total psychological score and the number of positive items after occupational exposure (P＜0.05).The scores of all items at 24 hours were significantly higher than those at the other time points,and the scores of all items gradually decreased over time (F=227.24,267.57,and 287.46,P＜0.05).Compared with the adult norm,there were significant increases in the factor points at 24 hours and significant reductions in the factor points at 3 months (P＜0.05).Compared with those at 24 hours,the factor scores at 3 months decreased significantly (P＜0.05).Conclusion Occupational AIDS exposure affects the mental status of related personnel,and the mental status at 24 hours after exposure is poor.Related departments should provide corresponding psychological counseling for the occupational exposure population at different exposure times.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility of two-stage crestal approach sinus elevation in severe atrophic maxilla.Methods:A total of 25 patients (male: 13 cases,female: 12 cases) who attended Department of Implant Center, Stomatological Hospital, Southern Medical University from May 2016 to May 2018 were included in this study. The age of the patients was 32-49 years old. The inclusion criteria were: single or multiple tooth loss in posterior maxilla with residual bone height ranged from 1.5 to 3.0 mm and vertical bone width≥6 mm, no pathological changes or septum were detected in the sinus. The elevated sides were divided into three groups according to different buccal-palatal sinus width (SW): wide (16 case, SW＞15 mm), normal (12 case, 12 mm≤SW≤15 mm), narrow (5 case, SW<12 mm). Finally, 23 patients with 33 implants were placed by the two-stage crestal approach for sinus elevation. Six months after implant placement, final restorations were delivered. Implant survival rate, implant stability quotient (ISQ), immediate vertical bone height (VBH) after surgeries, changes of sinus elevation height (cSEH), marginal bone loss (MBL) at 1 year follow-up were examined.Results:Twenty-three patients were finally included in the study, including 12 males and 11 females, aged (41.2±7.6) years old. All implants healed uneventfully. ISQ (wide: 50.81±2.69; normal: 60.58±2.54; narrow: 63.12±3.58), immediate VBH after 1st surgery [wide: (7.99±1.13) mm; normal: (8.95±0.81) mm; narrow: (9.18±0.90) mm] and 2nd surgery [wide: (11.46±0.88) mm; normal: (12.77±0.49) mm; narrow: (12.57±0.55) mm], cSEH six months after 1st [wide: (3.87±0.43) mm; normal: (2.01±0.65) mm; narrow: (1.49±0.33) mm] and 2nd [wide: (1.16±0.29) mm; normal: (1.04±0.33) mm ; narrow: (0.97±0.41) mm] surgery, MBL [wide: (0.91±0.05) mm; normal: (0.79±0.10) mm; narrow: (0.74±0.07) mm] were significantly different among three groups ( P<0.05). In all the three groups, cSEH was barely detected at 1-year follow-up ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Two-stage crestal approach for sinus elevation might be an alternative protocol in severe atrophic posterior maxilla, especially in cases with narrow and normal buccal-palatal width. There is an urgent need for long time follow-up and more clinical cases.

PURPOSE: We evaluated the usefulness of intracranial stent implantation for treating patients with atherosclerotic stenosis and with recurrent, ischemic, neurological symptoms despite having undergone medical therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Between March 2004 and April 2010, we attempted intracranial, stent-assisted angioplasty in 77 patients with 85 lesions (anterior circulation 73 cases, posterior circulation 12 cases) and who had ischemic neurological symptoms with more than 50% major cerebral artery stenosis. We analyzed the results regarding the technical success rate, complication rate, and restenosis rate during the mean 29.4 month follow-up period. RESULTS: Intracranial stent implantation was successfully performed in 74 cases (87.1%). In nine cases among the 11, failed cases, stent implantation failure was due to the tortuosity of the target vessel. One patient experienced middle cerebral artery rupture during the procedure, and we embolized the vessel using a microcoil. Five patients developed cerebral infarction in three weeks after the procedure, three of whom improved using conservative management, although the other, two patients expired. The mean number of residual stenoses decreased from 72.3% to 14.7%. Three patients demonstrated significant in-stent restenosis, i.e. more than 50%, during the follow-up period. CONCLUSION: As stent-assisted angioplasty in intracranial, atherosclerotic stenosis is effective and relatively safe, it can be considered as an alternative treatment for patients with recurrent, ischemic, neurologic symptoms despite having undergone medical therapy.
