BACKGROUND:Few cases of acute cerebral embolism were treated by mechanical thrombectomy al over the world. However, there were few cases currently treated by mechanical thrombectomy using Penumbra system. It is an unclear understanding of effects on regional cerebral blood vessels using this kind of surgery.
OBJECTIVE:To describe effects of numerical simulation on regional cerebral blood vessels of an acute cerebral embolism patient by mechanical embolectomy using Penumbra system.
METHODS:A 77-year-old woman suffering from acute cerebral embolism of left middle cerebral artery was selected. Various raw data were col ected in emergency of digital subtraction angiography, then mechanical thrombectomy using Penumbra system was carried out successful y. After these raw data were processed into dimensional numerical models of two kinds of embolectomy methods (“suction bolt method from near to far”and“suction bolt method from far to near”), and then finite element analysis was carried out.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Model establishment and finite element analysis were successful y conducted. Compared with“suction bolt method from near to far”,“suction bolt method from far to near”models had smal er velocity of flow in catheter and smal er wal shear stress of thrombus (P<0.01), and had larger wal shear stress of blood vessel wal , deformation of blood vessel wal (P<0.01) and deformation of thrombus (P<0.05). Results suggested that finite element analysis of mechanical embolectomy using Penumbra system can help physicians to involve in a clear understanding of their impacts on cerebral blood vessels of patients. As a research method, it is worth to continue to explore in the future.

Objective:To explore the relationship between ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) and neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) before mechanical ventilation in patients with malignant tumors.Methods:A retrospective nested case-control study was conducted. Patients with malignant tumor treated by mechanical ventilation admitted to the Third Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University from February 2015 to February 2020 were enrolled. The patients with VAP were selected as the case group, and the matched non-VAP cases were selected according to 1∶2 as the control group. The clinical data were collected, and the differences of each index between the two groups were compared. The influencing factors of VAP in patients with malignant tumor were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression.Results:During the study period, 1 271 patients with malignant tumors were treated with mechanical ventilation, of which 241 cases had VAP, and the incidence of VAP was 18.96%. There were 232 VAP patients in the case group matched 464 non-VAP patients in the control group. The clinical data of age, gender, hospitalization diagnosis, primary tumor, regional lymph node and distant metastasis (TNM) stage, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHEⅡ), complications, duration of mechanical ventilation, hemoglobin (Hb) and serum albumin (Alb) levels were balanced and comparable between the two groups, and the cluster nursing measures were consistent. Compared with the control group, although there was no significant difference in neutrophil count (NEU) and lymphocyte count (LYM) in the case group [NEU (×10 9/L): 3.81±1.07 vs. 3.64±1.05, LYM (×10 9/L): 2.06±0.59 vs. 2.15±0.62, both P > 0.05], NLR was significantly increased (2.07±1.05 vs. 1.89±0.96, P < 0.05), and the hospital stay was significantly longer (days: 24.84±3.81 vs. 13.19±3.98, P < 0.01). NLR, gender, age, APACHEⅡ score, TNM stage, Hb, serum Alb and duration of mechanical ventilation were included in multivariate Logistic regression analysis. The results showed that patients with elevated NLR had higher risk of VAP [odds ratio ( OR) = 1.187, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 1.015-1.387, P = 0.032]. In patients with VAP, NLR was negatively correlated with the time of mechanical ventilation before VAP (r = -0.327, P = 0.000), and positively correlated with the time of treatment with antibiotics after VAP (r = 0.559, P = 0.000). Conclusion:Elevated NLR in patients with malignant tumors who were on mechanical ventilation can significantly increase the risk of VAP and increase the difficulty of treatment.

BACKGROUND: The biological behaviors of preadipocytes in adipose tissue of young animals have been closely linked to the onset and prevention and treatment of obesity. Observing mechanical oscillation effects on biomechanical behaviors of preadipocytes using biomechanical stimuli would provide more direct experimental evidence for treatment of simple obesity using manipulation and massage therapy.OBJECTIVE: Different frequencies of mechanical force stimulation were performed on preadipocytes from young rats cultured in vitro to observe the changes in cell viability, proliferation, and apoptosis.METHODS: Preadipocytes from SD young rats were in vitro cultured. Following identification, preadipocytes were dynamically, mechanically stimulated through the use of constant temperature oscillator. According to different treatment frequencies, three groups were set: 0 Hz (blank control), 1.5 Hz, and 3 Hz. A 30-minute oscillation, once every 12 hours, total 3 days, was performed in each group. Following dynamic mechanical stimulation, cell viability, proliferation, and apoptosis in young rats were observed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In the initial stage of culture,cells exhibited the morphology similar to fibroblasts. After oil red O staining, red particles appeared in the cells, indicating that the young mouse cells cultured in vitro were preadipocytes. With stimulation of oscillation force, the viability and proliferation of preadipocytes were significantly inhibited (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). There wasno significant difference in effects of mechanical oscillation on preadipocyte apoptosis between 0 Hz and 1.5 Hz, 3 Hz groups (P > 0.05). These findings indicate that thecell biological mechanism underlying preventing simple obesity in adolescents is to inhibit the viability and proliferation of preadipocytes

Objective To introduce a two-stage operative method to treat ma lu nion after the distal femoral fracture. Methods From Aug. 1992 to Aug. 2000, 12 patients underwent osteotomy and secondary fixation due to malunion after the di stal femoral fracture. There were 10 closed fractures and 2 open ones. The prima ry treatment was conservative for 2 patients, and operative for 10. We first per formed the osteotomy along the primary fracture line where the deformity was the most severe. When the roentgenogram confirmed that the deformity had been corre cted satisfactorily, a secondary operation of ORIF (open reduction with internal fixation) was performed. Results On average, all the 12 patients gained bone un ion 5.1 months postoperatively. The mean follow-up duration was 7.2 years (rang e: 3.5 to 11.5 years). None of the patients was afflicted by infection or loosen ing of the internal fixator. According to the Schatzker scoring scale system, al l the patients were evaluated as poor preoperatively, but as excellent in 7, goo d in 4 and fair in 1 at the last follow-up. Conclusion Osteotomy and secondary fixation is not only simple and accessible but also can lead to confirmed clinic al results. However, it is still very important to reduce and fix the acute frac tures stably to avoid malunion.
