Ventricular septal defect is the most common congenital heart disease in children. Transcathe-ter closure is now becoming an alternative treatment to surgical repair for perimembranous ventricular septal de-fect. As more and more patients are treated with interventional therapy,the immediate and long-term complica-tions are increasingly the cause of concern. This review summarizes the occurrence of complications after tran-scatheter closure of ventricular septal defect,mechanism and treatment of the complications,highlighting the oc-currence of cardiac block as a key point.

Objective To study the effects of light on body weight,learning and memory of mice.Methods Fifty mice aged 20 days were randomly assigned to one of the five groups: 200 W light group,100 W light group,60 W light group,40 W light group and normal control group,with 10 in each.They were exposed to different intensities of light 8 hours per day for 1 week.Then we monitored their body weight,examined the mean latency and inaccuracy number in step-down test,and examined the mean latency using a Morris' water maze to observe the effect of light pollution on the mice's learning and memory.Results Compared with the other four groups,there were significant decelerations of body weight increase in 200 W light group.No significant difference in body weight gain was found among the other four groups.The four light-treatment groups had no significant differences from control group in the mean latency,inaccuracy number in step-down test or the mean latency,or the mean crosses to the target in the Morris' water maze.Conclusion Short time high-intensity light can inhibit body weight increase in mice,but short-time light has no effect on the learning and memory of mice.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effect of microneedle combined with Lauromacrogol on skin capillary network.

METHODS24 male Leghone (1.5-2.0 kg in weight) were randomly divided into three groups as group A (microneedle combined with Lauromacrogol), B (microneedle combined with physiological saline) , and C(control). The cockscombs were treated. The specimens were taken on the 7th, 14th, 21th , and 28th day postoperatively. HE staining, immunohistochemical staining and special staining were performed for study of the number of capillary and collagen I/III , as well as elastic fibers.

RESULTSThe color of cockscombs in group A became lightening after treatment. The number of capillary decreased as showing by HE staining. The collagen I and III in group B was significantly different from that in group A and C (P < 0.05). Special staining showed proliferation of elastic fibers in group B.

CONCLUSIONSIt indicates that microneedle combined with Lauromacrogol could effectively reduce the capillary in cockscomb without any tissue fibrosis. Microneedle can stimulate the proliferation of elastic fiber, so as to improve the skin ageing process.

Objective To investigate the clinical features and the imaging examination changes of bacterial meningitis in children of different age groups,and to offer theoretical basis for the clinic diagnosis of bacterial meningi-tis. Methods The sick children with bacterial meningitis treated in Guangzhou Women and Children′s Medical Center from January 2011 to June 2013,were recruited and divided into three groups according to the age,including newborns group,infants group and more than 1 year group. Eighty-nine cases with purulent meningitis were recruited,included 58 males and 31 females. Among them,there were 34 cases in the newborns group,41 cases in the infants group and 14 ca-ses in the more than 1-year group. The information on the clinical features,laboratory examination and the imaging ex-amination were summarized and analyzed,and were compared among the 3 groups. Results (1)Among them,54 cases with high fever,44 cases with respiratory symptoms,12 cases with alimentary tract symptoms. (2)The major neurologi-cal features included convulsions(44 cases,49. 4%),fatigue(36 cases,40. 4%),vomiting(21 cases,23. 6%),cervical rigidity(9 cases,10. 1%),fontanel full(7 cases,7. 9%),headache(6 cases,6. 7%),limb paralysis(5 cases,5. 6%). The percentage of high fever,vomiting,headache,cervical rigidity in the more than 1 year group were significantly more than those of the newborns group and the infants group(χ2=10. 093,12. 063,34. 466,7. 177,all P<0. 05). (3)Among them,whitebloodcell(WBC)accountswerefrom2.20to60.60×109/L,themeanwas(16.49±10.37)×109/L.Hy-persensitive C-reaction protein concentration in blood was 4. 00 to 376. 53 g/L,the mean was (131. 07±86. 91) g/L. In cerebrospinal fluid(CSF),WBC accounts were from 1 to 21 800×106/L,the mean was (910. 05±274. 07)×106/L, the glucose concentration from 0. 00 to 4. 50 mmol/L,the mean (1. 72±1. 03)mmol/L,the protein concentration from 0. 42 to 4. 89 g/L,the mean was(1. 64±1. 03)g/L. In 40 cases with atypical CSF change, 23 cases with CSF glucose ratio(CSF glucose/blood glucose) less than or equal to 0. 4, and 15 cases with blood cultures positive. (4)The image examination showed magnetic resonance imaging( MRI) abnormalities in 51/75 cases,computerized tomography( CT) scan abnormalities in 15/30 cases. The percentage of convulsions,the brain MRI abnormalities and the MRI display rate of bacterial meningitis in the infants group were significantly more than those of the newborns group and the more than 1 year group(χ2=11. 768,9. 047,7. 674,all P<0. 05). The display rate of meningitis and subdural hydroma by the brain MRI were significantly more than those of the head CT scan(χ2=7. 430,5. 291,all P<0. 05). Conclusions Be-cause of the atypical clinical features of bacterial meningitis in newborn and infant, lumber puncture should be per-formed in all doubtful cases who had a fever and/or seizure. CSF glucose less than or equal to 0. 4 of simultaneously ob-tained blood glucose value,the enhanced MRI sequence or blood cultures were useful for the likelihood of meningitis,if CSF chemistries and cytology vary atypically. The MRI sequence can significantly mostly improve the display rate of bacterial meningitis than the enhance CT.

Objective:To compare surgery-related indicators, patient recovery status, perioperative complications and risk factors affecting the occurrence of postoperative grade Ⅲ or higher complications in patients undergoing laparoscopic gastric mesenchymal tumor surgery with different visceral fat areas.Methods:Clinical data of 116 patients with gastric interstitial tumor in Shaanxi Provincial People′s Hospital from April 2014 to June 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, including 44 male patients and 72 female patients, with patient aged from 25 to 88 years old and the mean age was (61.8±10.7) years, including 54 patients in the high VFA group and 62 patients in the low VFA group. SPSS 23.0 was used for statistical analysis, and t-test and χ2 test were applied to compare and analyze the patients′ surgery-related indexes, postoperative recovery status, complications within 30 d after surgery and differences in Clavien-Dindo classification of complications, while univariate and multifactorial analyses were used to study the factors affecting the occurrence of postoperative grade Ⅲ or higher complications. Results:Patients in the high VFA group had a higher body mass index than in the low VFA group, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=4.48, P<0.001); patients in the high VFA group had longer operative time ( t=2.88, P=0.005), more intraoperative bleeding ( t=2.17, P=0.032), longer period of fasting ( t=2.73, P=0.008), longer time for defecation ( t=4.46, P<0.001) and bowel movement ( t=4.62, P<0.001), and longer postoperative hospital stay ( t=3.43) compared with those in the low VFA group ( t=2.73, P=0.001), prolonged defecation ( t=4.46), prolonged bowel movement ( t=4.62), and prolonged postoperative hospitalization ( t=3.43), with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05); the incidence of postoperative complications was significantly higher in the high VFA group (31.4%) compared with the low VFA group (14.5%) ( χ2=4.78, P=0.029); among them, the incidence of postoperative pulmonary infection was significantly higher in patients in the high VFA group (12.9%) compared with those in the low VFA group (1.6%), and the difference between them was statistically significant ( χ2=4.16, P<0.05); while the differences in postoperative incision-related complications, anastomotic fistula, lower limb venous thrombosis, and intestinal obstruction were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The incidence of postoperative complications above grade Ⅲ of the Clavien-Dindo complication classification was significantly higher in patients in the high VFA group (16.7%) compared with those in the low VFA group (4.8%), and the difference between the two was statistically significant ( χ2=4.35, P<0.05); univariate analysis revealed that operative time ≥300 min and increased VFA were the risk factors for postoperative grade Ⅲ or higher complications, while VFA was not an independent risk factor. Conclusion:Larger visceral fat area increases the difficulty of laparoscopic gastric mesenchymal tumor surgery operation, and also affects patients′ postoperative recovery, leading to increased postoperative complications, but VFA is not an independent risk factor affecting the occurrence of postoperative grade Ⅲ or higher complications in patients with gastric mesenchymal tumor.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors affecting the occurrence of perioperative complications in patients with locally progressive gastric cancer undergoing radical gastric cancer treatment.Methods:The clinical data of 129 patients with locally progressive gastric cancer from January 2017 to December 2019 in Shaanxi Provincial People′s Hospital were retrospectively analyzed, including 98 males and 31 females, with an age ranged from 27 to 79 years and a mean age of (60.61±10.00) years. The postoperative complications of 129 patients with gastric cancer were firstly counted, and then the relationship between clinical data such as patients′ general condition, intraoperative status and pathological indexes and the occurrence of perioperative complications was analyzed by using univariate analysis, and significant factors were included in the logistic regression model for multifactor analysis to study the independent risk factors for the occurrence of perioperative complications.Results:Of the 129 patients, 25 cases (19.38%) had postoperative complications, including 10 cases (7.75%) with Clavien-Dindo classification combined with grade Ⅲ or higher complications. The results of univariate analysis suggested ACCI score >4 (30.76% vs 68.00%, χ2=11.86, P=0.001), body mass index ≥25 kg/m 2 (24.03% vs 60.00%, χ2=12.18, P=0.001), and preoperative hypoproteinemia (17.30% vs 36.00%, χ2=4.25, P=0.039), vascular cancer embolism (14.42% vs 40.00%, χ2=7.70, P=0.006), operative time ≥ 400 min (26.92% vs 52.00%, χ2=5.84, P=0.016), intraoperative bleeding ≥ 400 mL (13.46% vs 44.00%, χ2=12.03, P=0.001) were risk factors for the development of perioperative complications in patients with locally progressive gastric cancer. Multifactorial analysis showed that ACCI score >4, body mass index ≥25 kg/m 2, preoperative hypoproteinemia, vascular cancer embolism, and intraoperative bleeding ≥400 mL were independent risk factors for the occurrence of perioperative complications in patients with locally progressive gastric cancer ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The occurrence of perioperative complications in locally progressive gastric cancer hands was closely associated with ACCI score, body mass index, preoperative hypoproteinemia, vascular cancer embolism and intraoperative bleeding. ACCI score is expected to be a predictor of the occurrence of perioperative complications in patients with locally progressive gastric cancer.

Objective:To explore and analyze the reliability and safety of sham feeding in facilitating the recovery of gastrointestinal function after laparoscopic appendectomy (LA), by using a new device, the Artificial Intelligence Bowel Tone Monitoring System.Methods:The data of 100 cases in Shaanxi Provincial People′s Hospital from Dec. 2020 to Sep. 2022 with acute appendicitis operated by LA who met the inclusion criteria. In this prospective study, participants were divided by random number table into a control group and an experimental group, with 50 cases in each group. The control group performed routine postoperative LA care, and the experimental group performed routine postoperative LA care and sham-feeding state care. The age, gender, recovery time of postoperative bowel sounds, time of first postoperative anal discharge, postoperative nausea and vomiting, abdominal distention, dry mouth and halitosis, and postoperative abdominal pain and other complications were recorded. GraphPad Prism 9.0 and SPSS 22.0 software were adopted to conduct data organization and analysis.Results:There were 100 valid cases in this trial. There were no statistical differences between the two groups in terms of gender, age, duration of surgery, abdominal pain and other symptoms ( P>0.05). The recovery time of bowel sounds after surgery was (8.92±0.56) h in the experimental group and (10.55±0.88) h in the control group, which was statistically significant ( t=10.99, P<0.0001); the recovery time of bowel sounds after surgery was (20.10±0.50) h in the experimental group and (20.96±0.59) h in the control group. There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups ( t=7.84, P<0.0001); there was a statistically significant difference between the experimental group (22%) and the control group (42%) for postoperative nausea and vomiting ( χ2=4.60, P=0.032); there was a statistically significant difference between the experimental group (16%) and the control group (52%) for postoperative abdominal distension ( χ2= There was a statistical difference between the experimental group (40%) and the control group (68%) ( χ2=7.89, P=0.005). The number of hospitalization days in the control group was (11.40±2.47) days and the days in the experimental group was (9.30±2.01) d, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( t=4.65, P<0.001); the hospitalization cost in the control group was (27 270.11±2 645.30) yuan and the cost in the experimental group was (23 669.68±2 841.28) yuan, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( t=6.56, P<0.001). Conclusion:To a certain extent, sham feeding can accelerate the recovery of gastrointestinal function in patients after LA, reduce the common postoperative discomfort, length of stay and hospital costs of patients.

OBJECTIVETo compare the efficacy of laparoscopic versus open tension-free mesh repair using biologic mesh for inguinal strangulated hernia.

METHODSClinical data of 27 patients with inguinal strangulated hernia in the Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital between January 2012 and April 2014 were analyzed retrospectively. All the patients underwent one-stage tension-free repair using biological mesh, including laparoscopic(n=13) and open procedures(n=14).

RESULTSAs compared with the open group, the laparoscopic group had shorter operative time [(90.8±11.6) min vs. (130.8±32.5) min, P<0.01], lower rates of hematoma/seroma and wound infection[(7.7% vs. 42.9%) and (0 vs. 28.6%) respectively, both P<0.05], faster recovery of bowel function [(2.5±0.3) d vs. (3.8±1.4) d, P<0.01], and shorter hospital stay [(6.3±1.8) d vs. (9.8±3.2) d, P<0.01]. The mean follow-up was 5.7 months (ranged from 2 to 12 months), and no recurrence or serious complications occurred.

CONCLUSIONLaparoscopic tension-free hernia repair using biological mesh for inguinal strangulated hernia has significant advantage versus open operation.
