Objective: To investigate the safety and efficacy of transcatheter closure of ruptured sinus of Valsava aneurysm(RSVA). Methods: A total of 33 RSVA patients underwent transcatheter closure from January 2006 to March 2017 in our hospital were included in this retrospective study. The RSVA was diagnosed by echocardiography.Different type of occluders were applied for transcatheter closure based on the aortography results. All the patients were followed up after the procedure. Results: The patients were (37.6±12.1) years old,and the male patients accounted for 78.8%(26 cases).RSVA from right coronary sinus was found in 25 patients,and draining chamber was right atrium in 13 cases, right ventricle in 12 cases. RSVA from noncoronary sinus was diagnosed in 8 patients,and the draining chamber was right atrium. Aortography defined the narrowest diameter at the rupture site was (6.4±1.7)mm. The ratio of Qp/Qs was 2.2±0.5,and the mean pressure of pulmonary artery was 24.0(21.2,33.7)mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa). One patient developed serious occluder related aortic regurgitation and underwent surgery, transcatheter closure was successfully performed in 32 patients. The success rate of transcatheter closure was 97.0%. Two types of device were used in the study including small-waist double-disk ventricular septal defect(VSD) occluders in 20 cases and patent ductus arteriosus(PDA) occluders in 12 cases. During a median follow-up of 73.5(28.3,89.5) months, there were no infective endocarditis, residual shunt, thrombosis, device displacement,serious aortic regurgitation, serious arrhythmia or death.At the last follow-up, the left atrial diameter((37.4±6.5) mm vs. (41.5±5.3)mm,P<0.01),right atrial diameter((42.4±3.0) mm vs. (48.5±6.0)mm,P<0.01), right ventricular diameter((22.2±3.8) mm vs. (27.7±7.2)mm,P<0.01) and left ventricular end-diastolic diameter((51.3±4.9) mm vs.(55.0±4.3)mm,P<0.01)measured by echocardiography were all smaller than pre-procedural level. Conclusion Transcatheter closure of RVSA is a safe and effective strategy and associated with a good long-term outcome.

As the main weapon of cellular immunity,CD4+ T cells play a vital role in controlling and eliminating infections,and are an important barrier for the body to resist infections.Respiratory tract infectious diseases caused by influenza virus infection have extremely high infectivity,morbidity and mortality.The infection mechanism is relatively complicated and has not been fully ex-plained.The exuberant immune response induced by the body after influenza virus infection is described as a"cytokine storm"which is related to pro-inflammatory cytokines and tissue damage,which may eventually lead to acute lung injury.Therefore,this article sum-marizes the current research progress,focusing on the mechanism of CD4+T cells in the cytokine storm induced by influenza virus in-fection and the impact of acute lung injury,providing relevant ideas and theoretical guidance for follow-up research,with a view to the disease caused by influenza virus bring new and effective methods of diagnosis and treatment.

BACKGROUND: To compare the clinical efficacy of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) versus surgery for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer through evidence based medicine analysis. METHODS: A systematic search was performed in the PubMed, EMBASE, CNKI and Wan Fang databases to find studies published before June 2020. Two authors independently extracted the data and assessed the eligibility. All of the statistical analyses were performed using Stata 13.0. Subgroup analysis were performed according to the score matching study and operation type (lobectomy, segmentectomy and thoracoscopic assisted surgery). RESULTS: Finally, 14 articles were included, including 15,841 cases in SBRT group and 17,708 cases in operation group. 10 articles used propensity score matching methods for survival analysis. Thirteen were retrospective cohort studies and one was randomized controlled trial. The results of meta-analysis showed that the overall survival rate of the surgery group and the SBRT group was statistically significant. The overall survival rate of the SBRT group (HR=1.51, 95%CI: 1.31-1.74) was inferior to that of the surgery group. In the subgroup analysis of the surgical type, there was no statistical difference between the SBRT group and each surgical type. The difference of overall survival rate between SBRT group and surgery group was statistically significant (HR=1.66, 95%CI: 1.45-1.90) in studies of propensity score matching. There was no statistically significant difference in cancer-specific survival between the surgery and SBRT groups (HR=1.12, 95%CI: 0.83-1.52). CONCLUSIONS The overall survival rate of surgical treatment is better than that of SBRT, but it has no obvious advantages in cancer specific survival rate.
