Objective To investigate the significance of three electrocardiographic indexes in predicting the myocardial infarct related artery (IRA) in inferior wall of acute myocardial infarction (IAMI) Methods One hundred and twenty patients with IAMI were studied Results (1) IRA was related to right coronary artery (RCA) in 98 (81 7%) case, left circumflex branch (LCX) in 22 (18 3%) cases (2) ST segment depression in lead Ⅰ identified RCA occlusion with a sensitivity of 77 6%, specificity of 90 9% in patient with IAMI, but isoelectric or elevated ST segment in lead Ⅰ identified LCX occlusion with a sensitivity of 90 9%, specificity of 77 6% (3) About QRS wave of lead aVL, S/R≥1/3 identified RCA occlusion with a higher sensitivity of 93 9% and a lower specificity of 63 6% (4) When IRA was RCA, ST segment elevated amplitude Ⅲ≥Ⅱ identified as a diagnostic index no matter the location of occlusion Conclusion Three electrocardiographic indexes have significant value in predicting the infarct related artery in inferior wall acute myocardial infarction

Objective:To explore the effectiveness and safety of focused ultrasound ablation surgery (FUAS) for abdominal wall endometriosis.Methods:From November 2019 to October 2022, a total of 34 patients with abdominal wall endometriosis who underwent FUAS were collected, and their clinical features, imaging features, intraoperative treatment and side effects after treatment were analyzed retrospectively, and the improvement of symptoms and re-intervention were followed up.Results:(1) Characteristics of clinical data: the average age of 34 patients with abdominal wall endometriosis was (32.8±3.8) years old. The largest diameter of the lesion was 48 mm, and the median lesion diameter was 24 mm. Thirty cases (88%, 30/34) had moderate to severe periodic pain in abdominal incision before FUAS. All patients were diagnosed by preoperative magnetic resonance imaging, including 19 cases (56%, 19/34) of superficial type, 8 cases (24%, 8/34) of intermediate type and 7 cases (21%, 7/34) of deep type. (2) FUAS treatment parameters: ablation was completed with average operation time of (64±18) minutes, average sonication time was (385±108) s, (103±11) W of average power, (38 819±16 309) J of average total energy, the average treatment area volume of (3.11±1.42) cm 3, and (377.79±106.34) s/h of average treatment intensity. (3) Efficiency: the pain of patients after FUAS was significantly relieved, and the pain scores of patients after 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year after FUAS were significantly decreased ( Z=-4.66, -5.13, -5.11 and -4.91, all P<0.01). One year after FUAS, the near relief and effective pain relief rate was 74% (25/34), and the clinical effective rate was 85% (29/34). Five patients recurred after one year, including 3 patients who underwent abdominal wall endometriosis lesion resection and 2 patients who received drug treatment. One month after FUAS, the size of the lesion did not change significantly compared with that before FUAS ( P>0.05), and the size of the lesion decreased significantly after FUAS at 3 months, 6 months and 1 year ( Z=-2.15, -2.67 and -3.41, all P<0.05). It has no difference in pain relief among different types ( P>0.05), but has significant difference in focus reduction among three types ( P<0.01). (4) Safety: there were 34 cases (100%, 34/34) of skin burning sensation, 19 cases (56%, 19/34) of pain in the treatment area and 2 cases (6%, 2/34) of hematuria. All patients got better after corresponding treatments. Conclusion:FUAS is safe and effective for the treatment of abdominal wall endometriosis, which has clinical application value.

Objective:To perform cross-cultural adaption of the KING′s Parkinson′s Disease Pain Scale (KPPS), explore its reliability and validity in Chinese Parkinson′s disease (PD) patients, and to create the new version of the pain scale which adapts to the Chinese PD patients.Methods:This study enrolled 225 patients, including 121 men and 104 women who were selected from the Outpatient Center of Movement Disorders Clinic of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from July 2018 to July 2020. All patients completed the evaluation of the Chinese Version of KPPS (KPPS-CV). According to the preliminary evaluation results, the expert group modified KPPS-CV after discussion, and developed a Modified KPPS-CV (MKPPS-CV). These patients then completed the MKPPS-CV evaluation during the 3-month follow-up. Cross-cultural adaptation was performed according to published international guidelines that include translation, back-translation, expert review, and pretesting. The following psychometric properties were evaluated: basic item analysis; floor and ceiling effects; construct validity; content validity; criterion validity (Spearman′s rho between the KPPS-CV and Numeric Rating Scale); internal consistency reliability (Cronbach′s alpha); test-retest reliability (intra-class correlation coefficient, ICC).Results:In item analysis, 50% of the items had poor discrimination (critical ratio<3.0), and floor effect was found in all domains (proportion of 0 point>15%). The items were reclassified after exploratory factor analysis. The content validity of item 3, item 10 and item 11 was low (item-level content validity index<0.78). Criterion validity showed the highest correlations (Spearman′s rho>0.88) between the KPPS-CV and Numeric Rating Scale. While overall scale reliability was minimally acceptable at 0.46, which showed a poor reliability of this scale. Test-retest reliability was excellent for each item (Spearman's rho>0.85). The Cronbach′s alpha of MKPPS-CV (0.76) was higher than that of KPPS-CV (0.46). It showed a great improvement after the modifying.Conclusions:When using scales that are not developed for local populations, differences in culture and clinical practices should be taken into account. MKPPS-CV is an acceptable, valid measure to evaluate pain in Chinese PD patients, which is more suitable for Chinese people.
