Objective To evaluate results of surgical treatment for patients with acute type A aortic dissection using Sun’s operation and triple-branched stent graft. Methods According to the operation mode, thirty-three patients with type A aortic dissection were divided into Sun’s operation group (n=22) and triple branches aortic arch stent-graft placement op?eration (triple-branched) group (n=11). Preoperative examinations included cardiac ultrasound, aortic CT angiography (CTA), hepatic and renal functions and blood routine test in all patients. Intraoperative monitoring included the index about cardiopulmonary bypass and blood loss. The perioperative hepatic and renal functions and complications were also recorded. Survival and recovery rates were evaluated by follow-up between two groups of patients. Results There were six periopera?tive death in Sun’s group, and three patients died in triple-branched group. In triple-branched group, the intraoperative blood loss was significantly increased than that in Sun’s group [(3 586.4±2 926.8) mL vs. (2 630.5±1 821.2) mL, P<0.05]. Postoperative echocardiographic examinations revealed that the left ventricular size (LVEDd) and the aortic diameter were decreased while the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was elevated after surgery in Sun’s group [(50.9±6.9) mm vs. (55.0±7.5) mm,(28.2±1.6) mm vs. (48.8±11.0) mm, 0.620±0.031 vs. 0.469±0.104, P<0.05]. Whereas, only the aortic diame?ter was decreased after surgery in triple-branched group [(28.6±3.9) mm vs. (50.9±9.2) mm, P<0.05]. Kaplan-Meier surviv?al curve showed that five-year survival rate of Sun’s group was similar with that of triple-branched group (Log-rank χ2=0.095,P>0.05). At 5 year after operation, there were no significant differences in the recurrence of new aortic dissection, the incidence of cerebral infarction and mortality between Sun’s group and triple-branched group (P>0.05). Conclusion Sun’s operation can significantly decrease patient’s intraoperative blood loss and improve cardiac function. But its survival rate and long term results need advanced observation.

BACKGROUND: Studies have shown that basic fibroblast growth factor has effects on stimulating vessel regeneration and collateral reconstruction. However, administration was performed mostly by peripheral vein, left atrium or percutaneous coronary intervention, and it is difficult to achieve an effective therapeutic concentration in the local myocardium. OBJECTIVE: Based on the property of poly(D, I-lactic-coglycolic acid) (PLGA), to investigate outcomes of inducing neovascularization in the myocardium in combination of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) by ensuring target release of protein growth factor in local tissue. METHODS: PLGA and bFGF were dissolved in dichloromethane. This liquid mixture was rolled into the form of a hollow tube (3.0 mm outer diameter, 2.8 mm inner diameter, 0.1 mm thick, 10 mm length) for further use. The middle third of the left anterior descending coronary artery of mini-swines was ligated, and the local myocardium became dark purple. After the successful establishment by abnormal regional wall motion in the cardiac apex at anterior wall using ultrasound, the mini-swines were assigned to channels and bare scaffolds (BS) group and channels and bFGF-incorporating scaffolds (FS) group. The scaffold was implanted in the myocardium using self-made hollow bit. At 6 weeks, the number of proliferative cells was quantified by immunohistochemical staining. New vessels were quantified utilizing Image-Pro Plus software package in both groups. Quantitative analysis of changes in mass defect percentage was performed by Emory Cardiac Toolbox software combined with single-photon-emission computed tomography. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: At 6 weeks, number of proliferative cells and the density of new vessels were significantly increased in the FS group compared with BS group(P<0.001). Single-photon-emission computed tomography illustrates that MDP was significantly lower in the FS group compared with the BS group (P < 0.001). Results have suggested that PLGA scaffolds that incorporate bFGF were able to induce angiogenesis and enhance blood-flow perfusion.

Objective:To explore the clinical effect of lenalidomide combined with anti-B-cell maturation antigen chimeric antigen receptor T cell (anti-BCMA CAR-T) in the treatment of relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM).Methods:The clinical data of a patient with RRMM who underwent lenalidomide combined with anti-BCMA CAR-T therapy in Henan Province Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine in January 2020 were analyzed. Clinical manifestations, diagnosis and treatment were also analyzed, and the related literature was reviewed.Results:The patient was a 51-year-old man who was diagnosed as IgD-λ multiple myeloma (MM) in October 2015. The patient achieved remission after 10 courses of chemotherapy regimens including immunomodulators and proteasome inhibitors, followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. MM relapsed after 14 months of transplantation. His disease continued to progress after multiple chemotherapy regimens and mouse or human-derived anti-BCMA CAR-T therapy. After a conditioning chemotherapy regimen of fludarabine and cyclophosphamide, the patient took lenalidomide on day 1 and was infused human-derived anti-BCMA CAR-T cells on the next day. Grade 3 cytokine releasing syndrome (CRS) appeared after infusion, and was resolved after symptomatic treatment. Very good partial response (VGPR) was achieved on day 14 after anti-BCMA CAR-T treatment. VGPR had been maintained for more than 3 months by press time.Conclusion:Lenalidomide combined with anti-BCMA CAR-T therapy is feasible and effective in the treatment of RRMM.
