Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of precise mechanical thrombectomy based on ABC 2D scale in acute intracranial large artery occlusion stroke (ALVOs). Methods:A prospective study was performed. Two hundred and two patients with ALVOs accepted early mechanical thrombectomy in Department of Neurology, Maoming Clinical School of Guangdong Medical University from January 2021 to February 2022 were enrolled. They were randomly divided into experimental group ( n=102) and control group ( n=100). Stent retriever partially retracted with intermediate catheter for mechanical thrombectomy (SWIM) was the first choice for patients in control group. ABC 2D scale was used to prejudge the pathogenesis of patients in experimental group: patients with scores of 0-3 were considered as having embolic occlusion and a direct aspiration first pass technique (ADAPT) was the first choice, and SWIM would be chosen if suction catheter could not be in place; patients with scores of 4-7 were considered as having intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis occlusion and SWIM was the first choice. The clinical data, surgical effectiveness, surgical safety, and good prognosis rate 90 d after mechanical thrombectomy (modified Rankin scale scores of 0-2 as good prognosis) of the 2 groups were compared. Results:Experimental group had significantly shorter time from puncture to recanalization (51.0[35.0, 78.5] min vs. 67.0[45.0, 100.0] min), and statistically lower NIHSS scores 24 h after mechanical thrombectomy (10.00[4.75, 16.25] vs. 13.00[8.00, 19.00]), significantly higher good prognosis rate 90 d after mechanical thrombectomy (69.6% vs. 46.0%), statistically lower mortality 90 d after mechanical thrombectomy (3.9% vs. 13.0%) compared with control group ( P<0.05). No significant differences were noted in first-pass effect rate, successful vascular revascularization rate, or incidences of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) and ectopic embolization between the control group and experimental group ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Patients with ALVOs accepted early mechanical thrombectomy can have shorter time from puncture to vascular recanalization and better prognosis after etiologically prejudging by ABC 2D scale for thrombectomy.

Objective:To study the current status of longitudinal extrauterine growth restriction (EUGR) in extremely preterm infants (EPIs) and to develop a prediction model based on clinical data from multiple NICUs.Methods:From January 2017 to December 2018, EPIs admitted to 32 NICUs in North China were retrospectively studied. Their general conditions, nutritional support, complications during hospitalization and weight changes were reviewed. Weight loss between birth and discharge > 1SD was defined as longitudinal EUGR. The EPIs were assigned into longitudinal EUGR group and non-EUGR group and their nutritional support and weight changes were compared. The EPIs were randomly assigned into the training dataset and the validation dataset with a ratio of 7∶3. Univariate Cox regression analysis and multiple regression analysis were used in the training dataset to select the independent predictive factors. The best-fitting Nomogram model predicting longitudinal EUGR was established based on Akaike Information Criterion. The model was evaluated for discrimination efficacy, calibration and clinical decision curve analysis.Results:A total of 436 EPIs were included in this study, with a mean gestational age of (26.9±0.9) weeks and a birth weight of (989±171) g. The incidence of longitudinal EUGR was 82.3%(359/436). Seven variables (birth weight Z-score, weight loss, weight growth velocity, the proportion of breast milk ≥75% within 3 d before discharge, invasive mechanical ventilation ≥7 d, maternal antenatal corticosteroids use and bronchopulmonary dysplasia) were selected to establish the prediction model. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the training dataset and the validation dataset were 0.870 (95% CI 0.820-0.920) and 0.879 (95% CI 0.815-0.942), suggesting good discrimination efficacy. The calibration curve indicated a good fit of the model ( P>0.05). The decision curve analysis showed positive net benefits at all thresholds. Conclusions:Currently, EPIs have a high incidence of longitudinal EUGR. The prediction model is helpful for early identification and intervention for EPIs with higher risks of longitudinal EUGR. It is necessary to expand the sample size and conduct prospective studies to optimize and validate the prediction model in the future.

Objective To compare the dosimetric differences in volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) of Monaco planning system for nasopharyngeal carcinoma between Pareto and Constrained optimization in order to provide a reference for future mode selection. Methods Select 20 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma whom were calculated by Pareto and Constrained modes in the same CT image. Prescription dose of target PGTV, PTV1 and PTV2 was 70.29、60.39 and 54.45 Gy with 33 fractions, 5 times a week. The differences in target dose, organs at-risk dose, monitor units and segments were compared in the condition of 95% of the target volume reached the prescribed dose. Results Compared with Pareto group, Constrained group achieved a better HI and CI. CI of PGTV and PTV1 signed statistical differences (P < 0.05). Dose of OARs in Constrained group were all lower than those in Pareto group except Optical-l and lens-l. The differences of spinal cord prv dose and V₃₀ of Parotid-r between two groups was significant (P < 0.05) while the differences of monitor units and segments between two groups was not significant (P > 0.05). Conclusion The length of middle turbinate is negatively correlated with the occurrence and severity of CMS. There is no significant correlation between the degree of curling and the occurrence of CMS, but patients with lower degree of curling of middle turbinate may have more serious CMS.

【Objective】 To analyze the influence of different Inc parameters in the Monaco planning system on the left breast cancer volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) planning, in the hope of providing some reference for plan design. 【Methods】 Seventeen left-breast cancer patients who were receiving radical radiotherapy were selected. The plans were enrolled in the design of VMAT with the same optimization conditions but different Inc parameters in the Monaco planning system. All plans used different Inc parameters like 10°, 20°, 30°, and 40°. The results of the plan were compared. The dosimetric parameters of the PTV and the organs at risk inquired by the plan were analyzed. The SPSS software was used for calculating the differences between the VMAT plans and evaluating the quality of the plans. 【Results】 The different Inc parameters affected the dosimetric parameters D98%, D2%, D50%, V55 Gy of PTV and CI, HI (F=10.528, F=15.154, F=15.513, F=16.979, F=4.632, F=14.277, all P<0.05). The MU of the four groups significantly differed (F=4.632, P<0.05), and the difference of V10 on the ipsilateral lung was significant (F= 3.324, P<0.05), the remaining parameters in the four groups had no statistically significant difference. 【Conclusion】 For the left-breast cancer volumetric modulated arc therapy, the smaller of Inc parameter on the plan had better dose distribution and conformity index while the monitor units increased. 40° was not suitable for the breast cancer VMAT plan, and the high amount beyond the range would increase the toxic and side effects on the skin.
