Objective To evaluate the feasibility and safety of transrudial cerebral angiography and to discuss the technique points, advantages, disadvantages, indication and contraindication. Methods Transradial cerebral angiography was performed in 52 patients who were not suitable for transfemoral access or could not suffer from being kept in bed for 24 hours after transfemoral angingraphy, related comphcations and success rate of puncture and selective angiography were recorded and compared with transfemoral group (n = 83 ). Chi-square test was used for statistics. Results The success rate of puncture and selective angiography and the comphcation rate of transradial and transfemoral groups were 96.2% (50/52),94.2% (49/52),9.6% (5/52) and 100% (83/83),95.2% (79/83),8.4% (7/83),respectively. There were no significant differences between two groups (X2 = 0.000, P>0.05). After angiography, 2 patients of transradial group developed a mild bruise at the puncture site, no hematoma,pseudoaneurysm and artery- venous fistula occurred. Conclusion Transradial selective cerebral angiography is technically feasible and safe with comfortable and minimal comphcations. It should be used as the choice of mutes for selective cerebral angiography.

Objective: To explore the risk factors for Type 1 cardio-renal syndrome (CRS1) atfer ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methods: A total of 378 patients with STEMI were divided into two groups: a CRS1 group (n=98) and a non-CRS1 group (n=280). Clinical characteristics in the 2 groups were compared, and independent risk factors for CRS1 after STEMI were analyzed, and the effect of emergency Results: In the 378 STEMI patients, CRS1 was found in 98 patients (25.9%). Between the 2 groups, there was significant difference in 12 parameters, including age, history of diabetes, admission mean arterial pressure, admission systolic blood pressure, admission heart rate, Killip classification, left ventricular ejection fraction, baseline serum creatinine, baseline evaluated glomerular ifltration rate (eGFR), emergency PCI, β-blockers and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor/angiotensin, receptor antagonist (ACEI/ARB) application (allP<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression showed that age, history of diabetes, admission systolic blood pressure, Killip classification, reduced left ventricular ejection fraction, reduced eGFR, emergency PCI non-undergo and ACEI/ARB non-use were independent risk factors for CRS1 atfer STEMI. In the 256 patients undergoing emergency PCI, 50 patients (19.5%) had CRS1. hTe door-ball time and the amount of contrast agent in the CRS1 group were signiifcantly higher than those in the non- CRS1 group (bothP<0.05), but there was no signiifcant difference in the blood lfow in the “culprit vessel”atfer the PCI (P>0.05). Conclusion: CRS1 is a common complication of STEMI, which is associated with many factors. Immediate revascularization can reduce the incidence of CRS1 in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.

Objective:To study the effect of low-dose aspirin combined with letrozole on serum visfatin, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1) and pregnancy rate in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS).Methods:From November 2016 to November 2018, 110 patients with PCOS in the Third People's Hospital of Datong were selected.According to the random number table, they were divided into the observation group(60 cases) and the control group(50 cases). The control group was treated with letrozole, while the observation group was given letrozole combined with low-dose aspirin.The patients were continuously treated for 3 menstrual cycles.The changes of the serum visfatin, MCP-1, sex hormones, uterine artery blood flow before and after treatment, pregnancy and adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.Results:After treatment, the serum visfatin, MCP-1, testosterone (T), luteinizing hormone (LH), LH/follicular estrogen (FSH), uterine arterial pulsation index (PI) and resistance index (RI) in the observation group were (11.03±2.17)ng/mL, (99.31±14.50)ng/L, (1.57±0.29)mmol/L, (6.57±1.30)U/L, (1.16±0.22), (1.07±0.24), (0.41±0.08), respectively, which were significantly lower than those in the control group[(15.57±2.56)ng/mL, (121.29±20.37)ng/L, (1.78±0.32)mmol/L, (8.40±1.88)U/L, (1.50±0.27), (1.45±0.29), (0.57±0.11)], the differences were statistically significant( t=10.068, 6.593, 3.608, 6.012, 7.278, 7.521, 8.815, all P<0.05). The ovulation rate and pregnancy rate in the observation group were 81.67%(49/60) and 35.00%(21/60), respectively, which were significantly higher than those in the control group[64.00%(32/50), 18.00%(9/50)](χ 2=4.385, 3.974, all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the total incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups( P>0.05). Conclusion:Low-dose aspirin combined with letrozole in the treatment of PCOS can effectively reduce the serum visfatin and MCP-1, regulate the sex hormones levels, improve uterine artery blood flow, improve pregnancy rate, and without increasing adverse drug reactions, so it's worthy of popularizing.

Objective To investigate the value of X-ray guided desmopressin (DDAVP) stimulated bilateral inferior petrosal sinus sampling (IPSS) in diagnosing the recurrence of ACTH dependent Cushing disease or ineffectiveness after surgery or radiotherapy. Methods Retrospective analyses of patients with recurrent ACTH dependent Cushing disease (31 cases) or ineffective (3 cases) treatment after surgery or radiotherapy from January 2013 to October 2014 in our hospital was conducted. Bilateral inferior petrosal sinus angiography showed the same side of the cavernous sinus to prove successful intubation. The cases with discontinuous of the inferior petrosal sinus and cavernous sinus were excluded by this study. Finally, there were 34 cases of the patients in this study. Diagnosis was based on the ratio of ACTH level in IPS to peripheral vein after desmopressin test.The gradient≥2 at baseline or gradient≥3 after desmopressin test suggested the sources were in the pituitary. Diagnosis was confirmed by gold standard to investigate the value of X-ray guided desmopressin (DDAVP) stimulated bilateral IPSS. Results The IPS gradient≥2 at baseline or gradient≥3 after desmopressin test suggested the sources were in the pituitary in 30 patients. A total of 22 (22/30) patients underwent surgery with a final diagnosis of ACTH adenoma. The symptoms were obviously relieved in 8 (8/30) cases after sellar area gamma knife treatment and lesions were confirmed in the pituitary. IPS gradient<2 at baseline or gradient<3 after desmopressin test was found in 4 cases. One case (1/4) was found to have for ACTH adenoma after pituitary surgery. The other 3 cases (3/4) were confirmed to have lung carcinoid and clinical symptom alleviated after surgery. The sensitivity of desmopressin stimulated IPSS was 96.8%, the specificity was 100%, and the accuracy was 97.1%. Conclusion Desmopressin stimulated IPSS is an effective diagnostic procedure in diagnosing ACTH dependent Cushing disease recurrence or ineffectiveness after surgery or radiotherapy.

Objective:
To investigate the relationship between radiofrequency ablation immediately after enhanced CT scanning and the occurrence of contrast agent spillover and postoperative severe bleeding, and analyze the risk factors for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
Methods:
A retrospective analysis of 199 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent radiofrequency ablation of liver cancer in our hospital from January 2016 to January 2017 was reviewed. A total of 232 cases were treated with ablation. The agent spillovers were divided into two groups, one for the contrast agent spill group and the other for the non-contrast agent spill group. Its basic clinical data, laboratory data related to the risk of bleeding, and imaging data were analyzed to explore their clinical treatment effects and the risk factors for their occurrence. According to different data, t-test, χ2 test or logistic regression test was used for statistical analysis.
Results:
In 199 patients, a total of 232 cases were treated with ablation, including 138 males and 61 females. The average age was (57.56 ± 12.09) years and the average diameter of lesions was (3.42 ± 2.30) cm. A total of 30 cases (12.93%) of contrast agent spillover occurred immediately after the ablation of CT scanning needle. There were no severe bleeding and no special clinical intervention after the operation. The other 202 cases were non- contrast agent spill group, but 2 cases had severe bleeding and had corresponding clinical interventions. Univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in thoracentesis (
