Objective:To explore the application effect of Total Life Cycle Management(TLCM)in managing maintenance cost of ultrasound imaging equipment.Methods:Thirty ultrasound imaging equipment of the China-Japan Friendship Hospital from June 2021 to July 2023 were selected.From June 2021 to June 2022,a conventional maintenance mode was adopted to manage these equipment,and TLCM was implemented to manage them from July 2022 to July 2023.The qualified rate and failure frequency of the ultrasound imaging equipment,the satisfaction scores of medical staffs in using equipment,and the costs of operation and maintenance were compared between different management modes.Results:Under TLCM mode,the qualified rate was 93.33%,which was significantly higher than 73.33% under conventional maintenance mode,and the difference was significant(x2=4.320,P＜0.05). Under TLCM mode,the boot-up time of ultrasound imaging equipment was shorter than that under the conventional maintenance mode,and the difference was significant (t=7.146,P＜0.05). Under TLCM mode,the failure rate of long-term use of equipment was lower than that under conventional maintenance,and the difference was significant (x2=4.443,P＜0.05). The satisfaction scores of medical staffs for the performance,efficiency,and cleanliness of equipment under TLCM mode were higher than those under conventional maintenance mode,and the differences of them between two modes were significant (t=3.955,5.872,6.368,8.214,P＜0.05). Under TLCM mode,both maintenance costs and operational expenses were lower than those under conventional maintenance,and the differences of them between two modes were significant (t=41.353,16.743,P＜0.05). Conclusion:TLCM can effectively enhance operationally qualified rate of equipment,and reduce maintenance costs and failure rate of equipment in long-term use,and improves the satisfaction of medical staff.

Objective:To explore the preliminary clinical application efficacy of the side branch protection (SBP) technique in single stent-assisted coiling (SSAC) for the treatment of intracranial acute-angulated absolute wide neck bifurcation aneurysms (aWNBA).Methods:The clinical data of 23 patients with aWNBA treated at the Department of Interventional Medicine of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2013 to June 2024 were retrospectively collected. Patients were divided into two groups based on the stent type used: 11 in the side branch protection (SBP) group and 12 in the double stent-assisted coiling (DSAC) group. The characteristics of aWNBA including the size, the first and second angles between side branches and main artery, and the diameter of aneurysm, were analyzed preoperatively. Stent thromboembolism was recorded during the operation, and Raymond-Roy Occlusion Classification (RROC) and the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) were used to evaluate the treatment efficacy postoperatively. During the follow-up period the RROC and mRS were reevaluated and the stent stenosis was recorded. Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare the two groups′ data of skewed distribution, χ2 test and Fisher′s exact test were used to compare the two groups′ categorical data. Results:The 23 patients with aWNBA included 11 with aneurysms at the bifurcation of the middle cerebral artery, 6 at the top of the basilar artery, and 6 at the bifurcation of the anterior communicating artery. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of aWNBA basic characteristics before operation (all P>0.05). The SBP group had a lower incidence of intraoperative stent thromboembolism and a lower mRS postoperatively compared to DSAC group (all P<0.05); meanwhile, there was no statistically significant difference between two groups on RROC after the operation ( P=0.949). During the follow-up period, the SBP group had lower rates of stent stenosis and mRS compared to the DSAC group (all P<0.05) and there was no statistically significant difference between two groups in RROC ( P=0.527). Conclusions:In cases of dense coiling on aWNBA, the SBP technique in SSAC is able to reduce incidence of the stent thromboembolism, stent stenosis as well as neurological injury; therefore, it is a safe and feasible therapeutic strategy for the aWNBA.

The patients of the LTEVB 12C group received LTEVB 12C, and the patients of placebo group received LTEVB 12C mimetic, all the medications were taken 3 capsules each time and 3 times a day after meals, and the treatment course of 2 groups were both 6 months. The efficacy evaluation criteria included the effective rate (a decrease of ≥1 in histopathological score compared with baseline after 6 months of treatment) and the reversal rate (a decrease of ≥ 2 in histopathological score compared with baseline after 6 months of treatment in the patients with moderate to severe CAG). The impact of lesion sites on the therapeutic effects of LTEVB 12C was analyzed by logistic regression analysis. The two-way unordered Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel chi-square test considering the center effect and Pearson chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Results:The effective rates of chronic inflammation at the antrum greater curvature and corpus greater curvature (23.3%, 110/473 vs. 13.0%, 31/239; 20.3%, 96/472 vs. 12.6%, 30/239), the effective rates of atrophy at the antrum lesser curvature, antrum greater curvature, gastric angle, corpus lesser curvature, and the corpus greater curvature (27.0%, 118/437 vs. 15.7%, 34/216; 29.2%, 126/432 vs. 18.5%, 38/205; 27.8%, 121/435 vs. 16.7%, 36/216; 32.5%, 127/391 vs. 19.8%, 37/187; 33.0%, 119/361 vs. 21.8%, 39/179), and the effective rates of intestinal metaplasia at the antrum lesser curvature, antrum greater curvature, gastric angle, and the corpus lesser curvature (45.0%, 112/249 vs. 29.8%, 31/104; 53.8%, 86/160 vs. 33.9%, 21/62; 45.8%, 103/225 vs. 24.0%, 25/104; 51.9%, 83/160 vs. 28.3%, 17/60) of the LTEVB 12C group were all higher than those of the placebo group, and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=10.76, 6.39, 9.69, 7.91, 11.05, 9.62, 8.57, 5.20, 7.11, 12.45, and 6.73; all P<0.05). The reversal rates of chronic inflammation at the corpus lesser curvature and corpus greater curvature (5.2%, 12/231 vs. 0, 0/123; 4.7%, 8/170 vs. 0, 0/88), the reversal rates of atrophy at the antrum lesser curvature, antrum greater curvature, corpus lesser curvature, and the corpus greater curvature (6.8%, 22/323 vs. 1.3%, 2/151; 9.2%, 29/315 vs. 1.4%, 2/144; 14.2%, 38/267 vs. 2.5%, 3/121; 20.8%, 35/168 vs. 5.8%, 4/69), and the reversal rates of intestinal metaplasia at the antrum lesser curvature, antrum greater curvature, gastric angle, and the corpus lesser curvature (29.8%, 39/131 vs. 9.1%, 4/44; 41.0%, 32/78 vs. 12.5%, 3/24; 33.3%, 44/132 vs. 4.8%, 3/63; 50.0%, 37/74 vs. 8.7%, 2/23) of the LTEVB 12C group were all higher than those of the placebo group, and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=6.58, 5.12, 5.60, 8.61, 11.43, 6.59, 7.30, 4.95, 15.92, 7.62; all P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the effective rates and reversal rates of active inflammation at different locations between the LTEVB 12C group and the placebo group (all P>0.05).

Objective:To construct a nomogram model for differentiating gastric schwannoma (GS) from gastric stromal tumor (GST) (diameters 2 to 5 cm) based on CT imaging features before surgery.Methods:The clinical and imaging data of 49 patients with GS and 240 patients with GST in the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University from July 2009 to April 2023 and Guangdong Provincial People′s Hospital from June 2017 to September 2022 were analyzed retrospectively. The independent factors for differentiating GS from GST were obtained by multivariate Logistic regression analysis. The nomogram model was constructed by R4.3.1 software. The efficacy of the nomogram model for differentiating GS from GST was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve, and calibration curve and decision curve analysis were used to evaluate the predictive efficacy and clinical application value of the nomogram model.Results:There were no statistical differences in the clinical symptom rate, calcification rate, ulcer rate, tumor vessel rate, ratio of long diameter to short diameter and CT value difference during the arterial and nonenhanced phases (CTV A-N) between GS patients and GST patients ( P>0.05). The proportion of female, incidence of lesions located in central or lower part of stomach, extraluminal or mixed growth rate, tumor-associated lymph node rate, strong enhancement rate, CT value difference during the portal and nonenhanced phases (CTV P-N), CT value difference during the delayed and nonenhanced phases (CTV D-N), CT value difference during the portal and arterial phases (CTV P-A) and CT value difference during the delayed and portal phases (CTV D-P) in GS patients were significantly higher than those in GST patients: 75.51% (37/49) vs. 58.33% (140/240), 85.71% (42/49) vs. 54.17% (130/240), 75.51% (37/49) vs. 45.00% (108/240), 44.90% (22/49) vs. 5.42% (13/240), 51.02% (25/49) vs. 27.08% (65/240), 32.0 (26.0, 43.5) HU vs. 29.0 (22.0, 37.7) HU, (44.59 ± 13.46) HU vs. (32.94 ± 12.47) HU, 20.0 (11.5, 25.0) HU vs. 10.0 (5.0, 17.0) HU and 9.0 (6.0, 12.0) HU vs. 4.0 (-2.7, 7.0) HU, the age, irregular shape rate, cystic degeneration rate and heterogeneous enhancement rate were significantly lower than those in GST patients: (58.12 ± 12.59) years old vs. (62.05 ± 11.22) years old, 16.33% (8/49) vs. 38.33% (92/240), 18.37% (9/49) vs. 51.25% (123/240) and 34.69% (17/49) vs. 56.25% (135/240), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05 or<0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis result showed that location, cystic degeneration, tumor-associated lymph node, CTV P-A and CTV D-P were the independent factors for differentiating GS from GST ( OR= 3.599, 0.201, 19.031, 1.124 and 1.160; 95% CI 1.184 to 10.938, 0.070 to 0.578, 6.159 to 58.809, 1.066 to 1.185 and 1.094 to 1.231; P<0.05 or<0.01). The nomogram model for differentiating GS from GST was constructed based on location, cystic degeneration, tumor-associated lymph node, CTV P-A and CTV D-P. The area under curve of the nomogram model for differentiating GS from GST was 0.924 (95% CI 0.887 to 0.951). The calibration curve analysis result showed that there was a good agreement between the predicted GS curve and the actual GS curve (the mean absolute error was 0.033). The result of the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test indicated that the calibration of the nomogram model was appropriate ( χ2 = 2.52, P = 0.961). The clinical decision curve analysis result showed that when the threshold for the nomogram model for differentiating the two tumors was>0.03, the nomogram yielded more net benefits than the "all patients treated as GS" or "all patients treated as GST" scenarios. Conclusions:The nomogram model based on CT imaging features can be used to differentiate GS from GST before surgery.
