Objective To explore the preliminary experience of a one-stage hybrid operating room (OR) in cerebrovascular surgery.Methods A total of 23 patients [9 male,mean age:(40.0±11.2) years] underwent one-stage hybrid approach in a hybrid OR from September 2012 to December 2013,were chosen in our study.Craniotomy and percutaneous intervention of these patients were performed in a single session.Their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed.Results Thirty-one times of digital subtraction angiography (DSA) was performed in all patients,and 15 patients were diagnosed as having intracranial aneurysms and 8 arteriovenous malformations (AVMs).In one patient,a reposition of the clip was needed due to neck remnant after clipping.Residual nidus resection was done in 2 patients with AVMs.Temporary balloon occlusion happened in 5 patients,parent artery occlusion in 3,and 8 accepted emergency surgery under DSA confirming cerebrovascular diseases and removing hematoma.No procedural complications was observed.Conclusion A combined endovascular and surgical approach conducted in a one-stage hybrid OR provides a new strategy for the treatment of complex and emergency cerebrovascular diseases.

Objective To explore the DNA expression of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) in glioma and the association between HCMV infection and prognosis of glioma patients.Methods Used for this study were 89 specimens of glioma which had been surgically ablated and pathologically confirmed from the patients between January 2007 and December 2016 at Department of Neurosurgery,The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University,and Department of Neurosurgery,The First Hospital of China Medical University.Of them,32 belonged to WHO grade Ⅱ,31 to WHO grade Ⅲ and 26 to WHO grade Ⅳ.Ten specimens of normal brain tissue were excised as controls from the contemporary patients receiving resection for essential epilepsy.Nested PCR was used to analyze the DNA expression of HCMV in the glioma tissue and normal brain tissue,and in the peripheral blood from the glioma and control patients.Prognosis of the glioma patients was evaluated using the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis.Results The DNA expression of HCMV was positive in 46 of the 89 specimens of glioma,involving 14 cases of WHO grade Ⅱ,16 ones of WHO grade Ⅲ and 16 ones of WHO grade Ⅳ.The DNA expression of HCMV was negative in all the 10 specimens of normal brain tissue.There was a significant difference in the DNA expression of HCMV between the glioma tissue and normal brain tissue (P=0.002).The HCMV DNA was measured in the peripheral blood from 26 glioma patients,involving 10 cases of WHO grade Ⅱ,8 ones of WHO grade Ⅲ and 8 ones of WHO grade Ⅳ.No HCMV DNA was detected in the peripheral blood from the 10 control patients.There was a significant difference between the brain glioma and control groups in gene expression of HCMV in peripheral blood (P=0.048).There were no significant differences in the survival rate between the patients with positive or negative DNA expression of HCMV in the glioma tissue or in the peripheral blood from the glioma and control patients (x2=1.849,P=0.174;x2=0.082,2=0.774).Conclusion HCMV infection may play an active role in pathogenesis and development of glioma.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors and etiological characteristics of multidrug-resistant organism (MDRO) infection after traumatic brain injury, and to explore its nursing countermeasures.Methods:From January 2019 to January 2021, convenience sampling was used to select 478 patients with post-traumatic infection in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University as the research object. The patients' gender, age, underlying diseases, and infection types were collected, and the patients were divided into MDRO infection group ( n=69) and non-MDRO infection group ( n=409) according to whether the pathogen was MDRO. Binary Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of MDRO infection. Results:Logistic regression analysis showed that cerebrovascular disease, malnutrition, history of shock, invasive operation, and combined use of antibiotics were independent risk factors for MDRO infection, and the difference was statistical ( P<0.05) . A total of 516 strains of pathogenic bacteria were detected in the infected samples of 478 patients, of which 386 were target strains, involving 73 strains of MDRO (18.91%) , including 22 strains of Staphylococcus aureus (30.14%) , 14 strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (19.18%) , 13 strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae (17.81%) , 11 strains of Escherichia coli (15.07%) , 10 strains of Acinetobacter baumannii (13.70%) , 3 strains of Enterococcus faecalis (4.11%) . The lower respiratory tract was the main site of infection, followed by the urinary tract, wound and upper respiratory tract. Conclusions:Combination of underlying diseases, invasive operation, and combined use of antibiotics all increase the risk of postoperative MDRO infection in patients with traumatic brain injury. Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Klebsiella pneumoniae are common MDROs. Clinical nurses should strengthen the monitoring of the condition of patients with traumatic brain injury, do a good job of isolation protection, to prevent the occurrence of respiratory system, urinary system and wound infection in patients.
