Purpose:
This study was performed to compare the therapeutic efficacy of endoscopic surgery and open surgery and their effects on postoperative blood coagulation state in patients with thyroid cancer, and to provide evidence for the prevention measurement of thrombosis in the perioperative period.
Methods:
One hundred patients with thyroid cancer who received treatment in our hospital from January 2021 to December 2021, were randomly divided into an endoscopic group and an open surgery group, with 50 patients in each group. The patients in the open surgery group were treated by traditional open surgery, while patients in the endoscopic group accepted endoscopic surgery. The clinically therapeutic effect and blood coagulation of the 2 groups were compared.
Results:
Intraoperative blood loss and length of hospital stay were lower, and operative time was longer in the endoscopic group than in the open surgery group (P < 0.05). The 24-hour postoperative fibrinogen and D-dimer levels were higher in both groups than in the preoperative period, while PT was shorter (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in postoperative complications and follow-up between the 2 groups (P > 0.05), but the incidence of complications, postoperative metastases, and thrombosis was relatively low in the endoscopic group.
Conclusion
In the treatment of patients with thyroid cancer, endoscopic surgery has the advantages of less blood loss, fewer complications, and so on. Endoscopic and open surgery can lead to a hypercoagulable state, but the effect of endoscopic surgery is better than that of open surgery.

Objective:To study the effect of liraglutide on the forkhead box O3a (forkhead box O3a, FoxO3a) /Wnt signaling pathway and vertebral bone density in osteoporotic rats.Methods:Female Sprague-dawley rats were divided into sham operation group, model group, and liraglutide intervention group according to the random number table method, with 10 rats in each group. Both the model group and the intervention group used bilateral oophorectomy to establish an osteoporosis model. The intervention group was injected subcutaneously with liraglutide every day, and the sham operation group and the model group were given an equal volume of normal saline. After 12 weeks of continuous administration, the bone mineral density and bone biomechanics were measured, the serum osteoprotegerin, anti-tartrate acid phosphatase, and osteocalcin levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and the O3a/Wnt pathway was detected by Real-time PCR technology. The expression level of mRNA was detected by Western blot to detect the expression level of related proteins in the O3a/Wnt pathway.Results:The bone mineral density levels of L4,5 (0.33±0.04 vs 0.18±0.03) and left and right femurs (0.37±0.05 vs 0.23±0.04 0.35±0.04 vs 0.24±0.03) of the successfully modeled rats were significantly lower than those of the sham operation group ( P<0.05) . After 12 weeks of treatment, the differences in the maximum bone load, three-point bending stress, bone density and elastic modulus of the three groups of rats were statistically significant. Among them, the sham operation group had the highest level of each index (36.53±5.23, 154.13±6.27, 0.34±0.04, 3 102.34±160.44) , followed by the intervention group (19.37±4.32, 141.54±6.58, 0.18±0.03, 2 270.18±145.53) and the model group in turn (26.17±4.68, 147.56±5.84, 0.28±0.03, 2 804.24±140.42) ( P<0.05) . There were statistically significant differences in the levels of serum osteoprotegerin, anti-tartrate acid phosphatase and osteocalcin among the three groups. Among them, the osteoprotegerin (Sham operation group vs model group vs intervention group: 7.53±0.63 vs 4.57±0.42 vs 6.15±0.61) of the sham operation group was significantly higher than that of the intervention group and the model group. The anti-tartrate acid phosphatase (Sham operation group vs model group vs intervention group: 14.34±2.87 vs 19.53±3.52 vs 15.96±3.14) and osteocalcin levels (Sham operation group vs model group vs intervention group: 0.84±0.09 vs 1.13± 0.12 vs 0.95± 0.08) of rats The factor was significantly lower than that of the intervention group and model group ( P<0.05) . The mRNA and protein expression levels of FoxO3a, Wnt2, and β-catenin in the three groups of rats were significantly different. Among them, Wnt2 and β-catenin in the sham operation group were significantly higher than the intervention group and model group, and FoxO3a was significantly lower than the intervention group and model Group ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:Liraglutide can increase bone density and improve bone biomechanics by activating O3a/Wnt signal, thereby effectively treating osteoporosis.

Objective:To investigate the influential factors for poor prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction and construct a risk prediction nomograph model.Methods:A total of 173 patients with acute myocardial infarction who received treatment in The First People's Hospital of Huzhou from June 2018 to June 2021 were included in this study. They were divided into a good prognosis group ( n = 130) and a poor prognosis group ( n = 43) according to the follow-up results at 6 months after developing acute myocardial infarction. The clinical data of the two groups were compared using retrospective analysis methods. The potential influential factors were preliminarily screened using LASSO regression analysis. The influential factors of poor prognosis for acute myocardial infarction were investigated using logistic regression analysis. The risk prediction nomograph model was constructed using the "rms" package of R 4.2.6 language. The discriminability, calibration, and effectiveness of the model were evaluated by drawing the receiver operating characteristic curve, calibration curve, and decision curve. Model validation was conducted internally using the Bootstrap method (repeated sampling 1 000 times). Results:There were significant differences in the culprit vessel, Killip classification, vessel opening time, cardiac troponin I (cTnI), hypertension history, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), diabetes history, creatinine, hyperlipidemia history, left ventricular ejection fraction, smoking history and creatine kinase isoenzymes-MB between the two groups (all P < 0.05). Seven potential influential factors were screened using LASSO regression model, including diabetes history, infarcted vessel anterior descending branch, Killip IV, vascular opening time, cTnI, NT-proBNP, and left ventricular ejection fraction. Logistic regression analysis showed that vascular opening time ( OR = 0.171, 95% CI: 0.053-0.548, P = 0.003), cTnI ( OR = 0.201, 95% CI: 0.079-0.510, P = 0.001), left ventricular ejection fraction ( OR = 1.469, 95% CI: 1.167-1.847, P = 0.001), NT-proBNP ( OR = 0.996, 95% CI: 0.993-1.00, P = 0.025) were independent influential factors of poor prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction (all P < 0.05). Linear regression analysis results indicate that the regression model did not exhibit significant multicollinearity (variance inflation factor < 10). Based on the four influential factors identified by logistic regression analysis, a nomogram model for predicting the poor prognosis of patients with acute myocardial infarction was developed. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.979 [95% CI (0.959, 0.999)], and the consistency index was 0.934. The calibration curve of the model was close to the ideal curve. Decision curve analysis revealed that when the probability threshold predicted by the model ranged from 0.61 to 0.99, the predictive value of the model was superior. Conclusion:Factors influencing the poor prognosis of acute myocardial infarction include the time of vessel opening, cTnI, NT-proBNP, and left ventricular ejection fraction. The constructed nomogram model demonstrates good efficacy in predicting the poor prognosis of patients with acute myocardial infarction and can provide some reference for clinical doctors and nurses to identify patients with poor prognosis as soon as possible.
