Objective:
Para-aortic lymph node dissection (PALND) is a widely used treatment that causes many complications. This study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of nerve-sparing para-aortic lymph node dissection (NSPALND) by comparing it with conventional PALND in gynecological malignancies and to prove whether locating the superior hypogastric plexus (SHP) can help reveal the para-aortic nerves.
Methods:
This is a retrospective study of the patients who underwent para-aortic lymphadenectomy from January 2020 to December 2022 at Zhejiang Cancer Hospital. All of them were divided into NSPALND and PALND groups according to whether or not nervesparing was performed. The surgical, functional and oncological outcomes were evaluated.
Results:
There were 43 patients enrolled, of which, 20 patients underwent NSPALND and 23 patients underwent PALND. The para-aortic nerves were successfully revealed by locating the SHP in all 20 cases of NSPALND. The post-operative anal exhaust time in the NSPALND group was significantly shorter than that in the PALND group (2.5 vs. 4 days, p=0.006), and the incidence of acute intestinal obstruction in the NSPALND group was significantly lower than that in the PALND group (10% vs. 39%, p=0.029). There was no difference between the two groups in terms of catheterization duration, urinary retention, dysuria, as well as the number of lymph nodes removed and the para-aortic recurrence rate.
Conclusion
NSPALND can significantly reduce the rate of acute intestinal obstruction and improve post-operative intestinal function. Locating the SHP and using it as an anatomical landmark to reveal the para-aortic nerves is feasible. Its exact clinical value needs to be further studied.

Objective:To explore the risk factors for in-hospital mortality in patients with severe trauma and their predictive predictive value.Methods:A retrospective case-control study was used to analyze the data of 509 patients with severe trauma in the trauma database of the Trauma Center of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2017 to December 2021, including 377 males and 132 females, aged 18-94 years [53(42, 65)years]. Injury severity score (ISS) was 16-75 points [22(18, 29)points]. Injured parts included the head and neck in 409 patients (80.35%), the chest in 328(64.44%), the abdomen in 193(37.91%), the pelvis in 142(27.90%), the spine in 79(15.52%), and the limb in 247(48.53%). According to the clinical outcome during the hospital stay, the patients were divided into survival group ( n=390) and non-survival group ( n=119). Baseline and clinical data of the two groups were compared, including gender, age, cause of injury (traffic injury, fall from height, sharp instrument injury, etc.), injury site (head and neck, chest, abdomen, pelvis, spine, limb), vital signs on admission (temperature, systolic blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate), blood tests on admission [hemoglobin, platelets, prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), international normalized ratio (INR), fibrinogen (FIB)], Glasgow coma scale (GCS) upon admission to the emergency room, revised trauma score (RTS) upon admission to the emergency room, ISS after whole-body CT examination, quick sequential organ failure assessment (qSOFA) score upon admission to the emergency room, and INR combined with qSOFA score. The baseline and clinical data of the survival group and the non-survival group were first compared with univariate analysis. Then, the independent risk factors of in-hospital mortality in patients with severe trauma were determined by multivariate Logistic stepwise regression (forward and backward). Based on the above data, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were generated with Medcalc statistical software to analyze the efficacy of each risk factor in assessing in-hospital mortality in patients with severe trauma. Results:Univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in age, injury site, temperature, systolic blood pressure, hemoglobin, platelet, PT, APTT, INR, FIB, GCS, RTS, ISS, qSOFA score, and INR combined with qSOFA score between the two groups ( P<0.05 or 0.01), while there were no significant differences in gender, cause of injury, heart rate, and respiratory rate between the two groups ( P>0.05). Multivariate Logistic stepwise regression analysis showed that age, systolic blood pressure, APTT, ISS, and INR combined with qSOFA score were significantly correlated with in-hospital mortality in patients with severe trauma ( P<0.01). ROC curve analysis results showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of in-hospital mortality in patients with severe trauma predicted by age, systolic blood pressure, APTT, ISS, and INR combined with qSOFA score were 0.63(95% CI 0.59, 0.68) and 0.60(95% CI 0.55, 0.64), 0.66(95% CI 0.62, 0.70), 0.73(95% CI 0.69, 0.77), and 0.75(95% CI 0.72, 0.80), respectively. Conclusions:Age, systolic blood pressure, APTT, ISS, and INR combined with qSOFA score are the independent risk factors for in-hospital mortality in patients with severe trauma. ISS and INR combined qSOFA score can better predict in-hospital mortality of patients with severe trauma than age, systolic blood pressure and APTT.

Objective:To explore the demand and mode of palliative care for emergency dying patients by analyzing the case data of emergency death and cardiopulmonary resuscitation.Methods:The data of 776 cases of emergency clinical death and cardiopulmonary resuscitation in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from 2017 to 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:A total of 687 patients were included with (70.38 ± 16.57) years old, and 49.8% (342/687) of them were 75 years old and above; among them, 36.0% (247/687) patients or their families chose not to give cardiopulmonary resuscitation (DNR) in the last stage of their lives,and 63.2%(156/247) of DNR patients were 75 years old and above. The top four etiology of DNR were cerebral hemorrhage, respiratory failure, multiple organ dysfunction syndrome and out of hospital cardiac and respiratory arrest.After successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation, 37.5% (45/120) of the patients' family members chose to give up treatment again. The median stay time of DNR patients in the emergency room was 738.7 minutes.Conclusions:The patients who choosed DNR were mainly 75 years old and above, with cerebral hemorrhage, respiratory failure, multiple organ failure and cardiac and respiratory arrest. The detention of these patients in the emergency room increases the congestion of the emergency room, and at the same time, they can not get a peaceful palliative care environment. It is suggested that emergency medical staff should strengthen the awareness and improve the ability of palliative care. A relative independent area and corresponding soothing palliative treatment and nursing should be given to the DNR patients.

Objective To observe the therapeutic efficacy and action mechanism of muscle-region alignment electroacupuncture in treating post-stroke shoulder pain. Method Eighty patients were randomized into a muscle-region alignment needling group and a conventional acupuncture group. The Short-form McGill Pain Questionnaire (SF-MPQ), and serum levels of IL-6, TNF-?, and NO were majorly observed before and after the treatment. Result The muscle-region alignment electroacupuncture and conventional acupuncture both obviously reduced the SF-MPQ score and down-regulated the serum levels of IL-6, TNF-?, and NO, and the decreases by the muscle-region alignment electroacupuncture were more significant than that by the conventional acupuncture. Conclusion The action of muscle-region alignment electroacupuncture in treating post-stroke shoulder pain is plausibly by down-regulating serum levels of IL-6, TNF-?, and NO, reducing or inhibiting the production of inflammatory factors and restraining inflammation.
