Objective:This study aims to investigate the feasibility and safety of implanting leadless pacemakers in the low septum and its impact on cardiac electrical synchronization.Methods:A total of 36 patients who received leadless pacemaker implantation at Fuwai Central China Cardiovascular Hospital from January 2021 to August 2023 were included in this study.According to implantation sites of leadless pacemakers,patients were divided into mid-septal group(n=16)and low-septal group(n=20).The clinical characteristics and cardiac electrical synchronization were compared between the two groups.Results:There were 21 male patients,mean age was(68±13)years old.There was no statistical difference in the type of brady-arrhythmia between the two groups(P=0.73).There were 61 implant attempts in these 36 patients,and there was no significant difference in the number of attempts,procedure time,and pacemaker parameters between the two groups,but the average procedure time tended to be shorter in the low-septal group([84±37]minutes vs.[105±35]minutes,P=0.09).In terms of electrical synchronization,there was no statistical difference in QRS duration between the low-septal group and the mid-septal group([162.0±21.1]ms vs.[174.0±14.8]ms,P=0.20).There were no vascular puncture complications,cardiac perforation,or pericardial tamponade during the procedure.There were no complications and readmissions related to the leadless pacemaker during follow-up period.Conclusions:Our results show that the implantation of a leadless pacemaker in the low ventricular septum is safe and effective,has a similar impact on cardiac electrical synchronization as mid-septal pacing.

Objective To systematically review the risk factors for liver injury in breast cancer patients after chemotherapy.Methods PubMed,Cochrane Library,Embase,Web of Science,CNKI,SinoMed,WanFang Data and VIP databases were electronically searched to collect studies on the influential factors of liver injury in breast cancer patients from inception to March 31,2024.Two reviewers independently screened the literature,extracted data and evaluated the risk of bias of the included studies.Meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software.Results A total of 15 studies involving 6,486 patients were included.The results of Meta-analysis showed that hepatitis B virus infection[OR=2.41,95％CI(1.52,3.82),P＜0.001],lymph node metastasis[OR=1.27,95％CI(1.05,1.55),P=0.02],hyperlipidemia[OR=1.58,95％CI(1.13,2.20)P=0.007],liver metastasis[OR=3.19,95％CI(2.11,4.84),P＜0.001],tumor node metastasis(TNM)stage Ⅲ to Ⅳ[OR=1.49,95％CI(1.17,1.90),P＜0.001],were risk factors for liver injury after breast cancer chemotherapy.Compared with other chemotherapy agents/regimens,the use of fluorouracil[OR=0.58,95％CI(0.42,0.80),P＜0.001],cyclophosphamide[OR=0.65,95％CI(0.47,0.89),P=0.008],AC regimen[OR=0.38,95％CI(0.22,0.66),P＜0.00 1]and neoadjuvant chemotherapy[OR=0.61,95％CI(0.43,0.88),P=0.007]were associated with a lower risk of liver injury,the use of paclitaxel drugs[OR=2.85,95％CI(2.31,3.52),P＜0.001],intensive regimen[OR=3.48,95％CI(2.15,5.62),P＜0.001],TAC regimen[OR=2.42,95％CI(1.38,4.24),P=0.002]increased the risk of liver injury.Tumor TNM stage I[OR=0.63,95％CI(0.51,0.78),P=0.001]were protective factors for liver injury after chemotherapy in breast cancer patients.Conclusion The current evidence shows that multiple factors influence the incidence of liver injury after breast cancer chemotherapy.Medical staff can formulate targeted chemotherapy programs according to the influencing factors and clinical characteristics to reduce the risk of liver injury after chemotherapy.

Objectives:This study aims to explore the impact of new-onset heart conduction block post transcatheter aortic valve replacement(TAVR)on the cardiac conduction status during 1-year follow-up.Methods:A total of 130 patients who completed TAVR surgery at Fuwai Central-China Cardiovascular Hospital from July 2019 to October 2022 were screened.Among them,56 cases with postoperative heart conduction block were selected for analysis.According to the degree of heart block,patients were divided into mild block group(n=36),moderate block group(n=9),and severe block group(n=11).The clinical characteristics and cardiac conduction conditions at 1-year follow-up between different groups were compared.Results:During a mean(8.5±4.1)months follow-up period,10(17.9%)patients had long-term atrioventricular conduction block,and 46(82.1%)patients had partial or complete recovery of heart block,with 28(50.0%)patients with completely recovered cardiac conduction.In the mild block group,22(61.1%)cases were completely recovered,9(25.0%)patients partly recovered,and 5(13.9%)cases uncovered.In the moderate block group,2(22.2%)cases were completely recovered,5(55.6%)patients partly recovered,and 2(22.2%)cases uncovered.Difference in long-term atrioventricular conduction block among three groups was statistically significant(P<0.001).The Kaplan-Meier curve shows that patients with moderate to severe heart block have a higher rate of long-term atrioventricular conduction block(86.1%vs.77.8%vs.72.7%,log-rank P=0.03).Cox multivariate analysis exhibited that old age(≥75 years old,HR=1.204,95%CI:1.051-1.525,P=0.041)and severe heart conduction block(HR=1.106,95%CI:1.100-1.616,P=0.031)are the two independent risk factors for long-term atrioventricular conduction block post TAVR.Conclusions:The ratio of complete cardiac conduction recovery post TAVR is 50.0%.Older age(≥75 year)and new-onset severe heart conduction block are independent risk factors for long-term atrioventricular conduction block post TAVR procedure.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of ganciclovir combined with spleen aminopeptide in treating infectious mononucleosis(IM)and its impact on the immune function of diseased children.Methods Totally 120 diseased children with IM accepted by our hospital from February 2022 to August 2024 were stochastically assigned into a treatment group and a monotherapy group.The monotherapy group received treatment with ganciclovir,while the treatment group received treatment with spleen aminopeptide in addition to the monotherapy group.The efficacy,symptom improvement time,serum inflammatory factors,immune indicators,and biochemical indicators before and after treatment were compared between the two groups.Results The efficacy of the treatment group was better than that of the monotherapy group,and the symptom relief time was shorter than that of the monotherapy group(P＜0.05).After treatment,the serum amyloid A,TNF-α,IL-6,procalcitonin,CD3+T,CD8+T,lactate dehydrogenase,alanine aminotransferase,EBV-DNA,creatine kinase,and white blood cell count in both groups decreased,while CD4+T and CD4+T/CD8+T increased.The amplitude of the treatment group was greater than that of the monotherapy group(P＜0.05).Conclusion The combination of ganciclovir and spleen aminopeptide in treating IM is beneficial for enhancing the immune function of T lymphocytes of diseased children,alleviating inflammatory reactions,improving biochemical indicators,and enhancing efficacy.

Objective To evaluate the effect of optical body surface monitoring system(OSMS)in setup of intensity modulated radiotherapy(IMRT)for thoracic tumorsand to analyze its relationship with BMI.Methods Thesetup errors of CBCT and location CT with body membrane and the registration errors of OSMS and first body surface reference image without body membrane were obtained in 49 patients with thoracic tumor who received routine intensity modulated radiotherapy.The paired t-test was used to analyze the difference of registration errors between the two image guidance methods.Pearson′s correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between CBCT errors and OSMS errors,and Bland-Altman analysis was employed to evaluatethe agreement of the two errors.The correlation and consistency of the two registration errors in patients with different BMI index were analyzed.PTV external marginsby the two registration methods were calculated using Van Herk formula.Results The OSMS and CBCT groups demonstrated significant differences in setup errors in the ventrodorsal direction(P<0.05),while no significant differences were found in the left-right,head-foot translation directions,or RTN rota-tion directions(P>0.05).Although the two methods showed a significant correlation in setup errors(P<0.05),this correlation was only moderate in the head-foot and left-right directions(r=0.500,0.408),weak in the RTN rotation direction(r=0.339),and very weak in the ventrodorsal direction(r=0.152).The limits of agreement(LOA,95％CI)between the two methods were[-0.45,0.45]cm in the left-right direction,[-0.59,0.57]cm in the head-foot direction,and[-0.48,0.40]cm in the ventrodorsal direction,with(-2.08°～2.19°)in the RTN rotation direction.Different BMI levels influenced the results of the two registration methods,particularly in patients with a BMI of 18.5～23.9 kg/m2.In this group,OSMS and CBCT exhibited a strong correlation in the head-foot direction(r=0.731),a moderate correlation in the left-right direction(r=0.512),and weak correlations in the ventrodorsal and RTN rotation directions(r=0.345,0.267).The absolute difference in setup errors between the two imaging systems was 0.4～0.5 cm/2°.Using CBCT and OSMS image guidance,the margins in the left-right,head-foot,and ventrodorsal directions were[0.5 cm,0.7 cm,0.3 cm]for CBCT,and[0.5 cm,0.7 cm,0.5 cm]for OSMS.Conclusion In chest tumor patients with a BMI of 18.5～23.9 kg/m2,OSMS and CBCT image guidance methods show good correlation in the head-foot and left-right directions,but their limits of agreement exceed the clinically acceptable range.OSMS cannot yet replace CBCT for image guidance in chest tumor intensity-modulated radiotherapy.Further improvements to tumor motion surrogates are necessary to enhance the accuracy of OSMS image guidance.

Objective To explore the mechanism of electroacupuncture in improving lipid metabolism in polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS)based on metabolomics combined with transcriptomics.Methods Eight-een SD rats were divided into the control group,the PCOS group and the electroacupuncture group,with 6 rats in each group.The PCOS group and the electroacupuncture group used intragastric letrozole to establish the PCOS model.After the model was established,the electroacupuncture group was intervened with electroacu-puncture,while the control group was only given sodium carboxymethyl cellulose by gavage.Observed the changes in body weight and estrous cycle of the three groups,detected the sex hormones,blood lipids,liver function,ovarian morphology,plasma metabolism and liver function indicators of the three groups.Metabolo-mics was used to analyze the differences in metabolites in plasma,the differences in gene expression in the liv-er were detected by RT-qPCR.Results Weight gain and estrous cycle disorder occurred in the PCOS group,and the ovarian morphology showed a thinning of the granulosa cell layer,with a significant reduction in the number of corpus luteum and mature follicles.Meanwhile,sex hormones were abnormal(total testosterone and androgen levels were increased,estradiol and progesterone levels were decreased),dyslipidemia occurred(TC,TG,LDL-C were increased,HDL-C level was decreased),and liver function was abnormal(AST,total protein,ALB,TBIL were increased).The electroacupuncture group significantly reduced weight.It improved the estrous cycle,and the granulosa cell layer of the ovary thickened,with a significant increasing in the num-ber of corpus luteum and mature follicles.Meanwhile,sex hormone levels were improved(androgen and total testosterone levels were decreased,estradiol level was increased),lipid balance(TC,TG,LDL-C levels were reduced,HDL-C level was increased)and liver function(AST,total protein,ALB,and TBIL levels were de-creased)was restored.Transcriptomics suggested that electroacupuncture down-regulated the expression of cytochrome P450(CYPs)family genes related to steroid hormones and lipid metabolism,and the results were confirmed by RT-qPCR.Combined omics analysis revealed that electroacupuncture might mainly exert its effect on improving lipid metabolism disorders in PCOS rats through the linoleic acid metabolic pathway.Con-clusion Electroacupuncture can regulate lipid metabolism in rats with PCOS.
