Objective To discuss the clinical application value of super selective renal artery embolization-assisted(SRAE-assisted)laparoscopic partial nephrectomy(LPN).Methods A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of patients with stage T1 renal carcinoma,who received LPN,was conducted.The patients were divided into SRAE group(performing LPN without adopting renal hilum vascular clamping)and VC group(performing LPN with adopting renal hilum vascular clamping).The time spent for operation,amount of intraoperative blood loss,and preoperative and postoperative renal functions were compared between the two groups.According to the warm ischemia time(WIT),the patients of the VC group were subdivided into WIT＜25 min subgroup and WIT≥25 min subgroup,and the preoperative and postoperative renal functions were compared between the two subgroups.Results A total of 59 patients with renal carcinoma were enrolled in this study,including 12 patients in SRAE group and 47 patients in VC group.In VC group,WIT＜25 min subgroup had 33 patients and WIT≥25 min subgroup had 14 patients.In both SRAE group and VC group,no patient was referred to open surgery or total nephrectomy.No patient in SRAE group was referred to traditional LPN.The time spent for operation in SRAE group and VC group was 100.50(73.75,132.50)min and 120.00(90.00,145.00)min respectively,the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).The postoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR)in SRAE group was 100.56(82.85,106.81),which was remarkably higher than 84.66(70.84,94.85)in VC group(P＜0.05).The postoperative serum creatinine level in VC group was 90.50(77.10,104.90)μmol/L,which was strikingly higher than 72.24(65.97,80.27)μmol/L in SRAE group(P＜0.05).The amount of intraoperative blood loss in SRAE group was 50(50,50)mL,which was lower than 50(50,100)mL in VC group(P＜0.05).In VC group,the postoperative eGFR in WIT≥25 min subgroup was 66.13(47.08,82.50),which was lower than 90.80(77.18,98.78)in WIT＜25 min subgroup(P＜0.05).During the postoperative one-year follow-up,no recurrence was observed in both groups.Conclusion Compared with traditional LPN,SRAE-assisted LPN doesn't need to obstruct the renal hilus during surgery,which can avoid the ischemic impairment of the residual renal function and reduce the amount of intraoperative blood loss,moreover,it doesn't increase the operation time,doesn't increase the incidence of complications such as postoperative bleeding,etc.and doesn't affect the curative efficacy and patient's prognosis.

Objective:To explore the microbiological and disease distribution characteristics of multidrug-resistant bacteria in patients hospitalized in a critical care rehabilitation ward, and to analyze the risk factors leading to multidrug-resistant bacterial infections.Methods:Microbiology screening data describing 679 patients admitted to a critical care rehabilitation ward were retrospectively analyzed to divide the subjects into a multidrug-resistant group (positive for multidrug-resistant bacterial infections, n=166) and a non-multidrug-resistant group (negative for multidrug-resistant bacterial infections, n=513). The risk factors were then analyzed using logistic regression. Results:Among 369 strains of multidrug-resistant bacteria observed, 329 were gram-negative bacteria (89.2%), mainly Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli. They were distributed in sputum (56.9%) and mid-epidemic urine (28.2%) specimens. Patients whose primary disease was hemorrhagic or ischemic cerebrovascular disease accounted for 40.96% and 23.49% of the multidrug-resistant bacterial infections, respectively. Logistic regression analysis showed that albumin level, dependence on mechanical ventilation, central venous cannulation, or an indwelling urinary catheter or cystostomy tube were significant independent predictors of such infections.Conclusion:The multidrug-resistant bacterial infections of patients admitted to the critically ill rehabilitation unit are mainly caused by gram-negative bacteria. Their occurrence is closely related to low albumin levels and mechanical ventilation, as well as to bearing an indwelling central venous catheter, a urinary catheter or a cystostomy catheter.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors which may lead to tracheostomy in patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) in emergency intensive care unit (EICU).Methods:A case-control study was adopted to retrospectively analyze the clinical data of patients hospitalized in EICU receiving IMV from August 2016 to August 2019. The clinical data of patients were extracted through the electronic medical record system of the hospital information database. Patients were divided into the tracheostomy group and successful extubation group according to whether they received tracheostomy during hospitalization. The different clinical characteristics of the two groups were compared, and logistic regression was used to analyze the independent risk factors of tracheostomy.Results:A total of 109 patients were included in this study, among which, 53 patients underwent tracheotomy and 56 patients were successfully extubated. Logistic regression showed that GCS score ≤ 8 ( OR=5.10, 95% CI: 1.68-15.42, P < 0.01), cervical spinal cord injury ( OR=10.32, 95% CI: 2.74-38.82, P < 0.01), and sepsis ( OR=3.45, 95% CI: 1.39-8.54, P<0.01) were independent risk factors of tracheostomy for patients receiving IMV in EICU. Conclusions:If patients receiving IMV have GCS score ≤ 8, cervical spinal cord injury, or sepsis, they should be given more attention, because they may need early tracheostomy to save lives and improve the prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the clinical and pathological features and improve the acknowledgement of intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasm (ITPN) of pancreas.Methods:Six cases with ITPN in the Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University combined with 40 cases from PubMed and CNKI were retrospectively analyzed. There were 25 males and 21 females, aged (58.6±16.0) years. The clinical manifestations, pathological features, treatment and so on were analyzed.Results:All cases were treated with surgery. The main clinical symptoms were upper abdominal pain and discomfort (23 cases, 50.0%), followed by jaundice (9 cases, 19.6%). Seven cases (15.2%) had no clinical symptoms. Three cases (6.5%) had low back discomfort, chills and other rare symptoms, and 4 cases (8.7%) had no clinical symptoms mentioned in the literature. Tumors of 27 cases (58.7%) located in the head of the pancreas, 9 cases (19.6%) in the body and tail, 4 cases (8.7%) in the whole pancreas, 3 cases (6.5%) in the body, 2 cases (4.3%) in ampulla and 1 case (2.2%) in head and body. Most of the tumors located in the main pancreatic duct. Microscopically, back-to-back tubular glands were densely arranged, parts of them with papillary structure, with obvious cell atypia and many mitoses. Twenty-two cases (47.8%) of ITPN were completely confined to the pancreatic duct, and 24 cases (52.2%) were with associated invasive carcinoma. Tumor cells were positive for cytokeratin 7 and mucin 1, but negative for cytokeratin 20, synaptophysin, chromogranin and trypsin. Mucin 2, mucin 5AC and mucin 6 were negative in most cases. Ki-67 ranged from 10% to 70%.Conclusion:Pancreatic ITPNs were mostly located in the pancreatic head, confined to the main pancreatic duct, and were mostly manifested as pain and discomfort in the upper abdomen. Surgery was the main treatment. Tumors cells of ITPN were arranged in tubular and papillary, with severe epithelial atypia and special immunophenotype, parts of cases accompanied with associated invasive carcinoma.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of hemodiafiltration combined with hemoperfusion in the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD).Methods:A total of 40 patients with SHPT undergoing MHD who received treatment at the Blood Purification Center of The First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui University of Science and Technology from February 2021 to March 2023 were included in this prospective cohort study. They were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group ( n = 20/group).The control group received a single high flux hemodialysis, while the observation group used a combination of hemodialysis filtration and hemoperfusion for 3 months. In both groups, the changes in hemoglobin, blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine, serum calcium, serum phosphorus,and parathyroid hormone levels were compared before and after dialysis. Results:After dialysis, the hemoglobin level in the observation group was (119.45 ± 5.27) g/L, which was significantly higher than (106.30 ± 6.52) g/L in the control group ( t = -7.02, P < 0.001). The serum phosphorus level in the observation group was (1.18 ± 0.17) mmol/L, which was significantly lower than (1.52 ± 0.22) mmol/L in the control group ( t = 5.49, P < 0.001). The parathyroid hormone level in the observation group was (122.14 ± 40.57) ng/L, which was significantly lower than (168.78 ± 78.27) ng/L in the control group ( t = 2.39, P = 0.023). Conclusion:Hemodiafiltration combined with hemoperfusion can reduce clinical symptoms, increase hemoglobin level, and reduce phosphorus and parathyroid hormone levels in patients with SHPT undergoing MHD, which deserves clinical promotion.

Objective:To study the clinical, imaging and pathological features of duodenal gangliocytic paraganglioma (DGP).Methods:The clinical, imaging and pathological data of patients with DGP treated at the Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University from January 2012 to October 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Of 8 patients with DGP, there were 7 males and 1 female, with a median age of 52 years (range 37 to 57 years). Five patients were asymptomatic and they were diagnosed on physical examination followed by investigations. Three patients presented with black stools. CT examination showed localized nodular thickening of the duodenum, with enhanced scanning showing obvious progressive contrast enhancement. Endoscopic ultrasonography showed a hypoechoic submucosal lesion in duodenal wall. Histologically, the neoplasm composed of three different cell types which included Schwann cells, epithelioid cells, and ganglioid cells. The Schwann cells expressed NF, NSE and S-100 proteins; the epithelioid cells expressed CK, NSE, Syn and CgA proteins; while the ganglioid cells expressed NSE, Syn, CgA and NF proteins. Endoscopic submucosal dissection was performed in 2 patients and surgical resection was performed in 6 patients.Conclusion:DGP is a rare benign neurogenic tumor which is most commonly found in the duodenum. It has a good prognosis. Imaging and endoscopic examinations demonstrated a submucosal mass. The main treatment are endoscopic resection and local surgical resection.

Objective: To develop a headspace gas chromatography ( HS-GC ) assay for simultaneous determination of dichloroacetic acid ( DCA ) and trichloroacetic acid ( TCA ) in urine. Methods: Urine samples (5 mL) were transferred to a 22 mL headspace bottle, added with 0.5 mL 10% sodium acetate solution , immediately sealed, and shaken evenly. The bottle was placed in the HS-GC system, and equilibrated at 90 ℃ for 60 minutes. The mixture was separated with the HP-INNOWAX chromatographic column, and the DCA and TCA concentrations were detected with the hydrogen flame detector. Results: Under the optimal experimental conditions, the correlation coefficient of DCA and TAC was both > 0.999 0 within the range of 10-500.0 μg/L, and the lowest detection limits of DCA and TAC were 2.0 and 3.5 μg/L, with the spike recovery rate of 87.40% to 101.44%, and relative standard deviations of 1.89% to 3.25%. Of the 35 urine samples sampled from occupational populations, DCA and TCA were not detected. Conclusions The establishment of the HS-GAS assay through addition of sodium acetate and optimization of the headspace conditions, has high recovery and precision, which is effective to meet the requirements for daily determination of DCA and TCA in urine samples.

Parkinson's disease (PD), known as one of the most universal neurodegenerative diseases, is a serious threat to the health of the elderly. The current treatment has been demonstrated to relieve symptoms, and the discovery of new small-molecule compounds has been regarded as a promising strategy. Of note, the homeostasis of the autolysosome pathway (ALP) is closely associated with PD, and impaired autophagy may cause the death of neurons and thereby accelerating the progress of PD. Thus, pharmacological targeting autophagy with small-molecule compounds has been drawn a rising attention so far. In this review, we focus on summarizing several autophagy-associated targets, such as AMPK, mTORC1, ULK1, IMPase, LRRK2, beclin-1, TFEB, GCase, ERR

Objective To investigate the effects of dexmedetomidine on renal function in patients with hemorrhagic shock undergoing emergency surgery.Methods Sixty patients (27 males, 33 females) with hemorrhagic shock, aged 18-69 years, ASA physical status Ⅲ or Ⅳ, required emergency surgery under general anesthesia, were randomized into two groups (n=30 each): dexmedetomidine group (group D) and control group (group C).The patients in group D receiving a loading dose of dexmedetomidine (0.5 μg/kg within 10 min) after the induction of anesthesia followed by a continuous infusion rate of 0.4 μg·kg-1·h-1 till 30 min before the end of surgery, while those in group C received equal volume of normal saline.Venous blood were obtained immediately before beginning of surgery (T1), immediately after surgery (T2), 24 h after surgery (T3) and 72 h after surgery (T4) for detecting the concentrations of the serum creatinine (Scr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN), the contents of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and high mobility group box-1 (HMGB1).The range ability of the concentration of the serum Scr from T4 to T1 (ΔScr) and the content of the serum HMGB1 from T4 to T1 (ΔHMGB1) were also calculated and recorded.Hemodynamic index (including MAP, HR) and arterial blood gas results were recorded during surgery.Results Compared with T1, MAP, CVP and BE were increased, meanwhile, HR and Lac were decreased at T2, but there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups.No statistical difference was found in BUN at any time point between group D and group C.Compared with T1, Scr decreased in both groups at T2-T4.The ΔScr in group D was higher than that in group C at T4 (P＜0.05).The content of serum NGAL at T4 in group D was significantly dropped when compared with T1 (P＜0.01) and was lower than that in group C (P＜0.05).Compared with T1, the content of serum HMGB1 was significantly decreased in both groups at T2 (P＜0.05);the content of serum HMGB1 at T3 in group C was significantly increased and was higher than that in group D;the ΔHMGB1 in group C was higher than that in group D.Conclusion Hemorrhagic shock could induce acute kidney injury.Perioperative continuous infusion of dexmedetomidine facilitated renal function recovery after ischemia-reperfusion injury in patients with hemorrhagic shock through inhibiting the elevation of serum HMGB1.
