In the past, aortic dissection, aortic aneurysm, and other aortic diseases, primarily rely on surgical intervention. In recent years, due to breakthroughs in materials science, endovascular therapy has become the first choice for the surgical treatment of most aortic diseases. However, traditional endovascular repair cannot fully meet the clinical needs for certain complex lesions involving the aortic arch and the originations of visceral arteries. The emergence of physician-modified stent technology has brought new hope for the treatment of complex aortic diseases. This article provides a detailed introduction to the concept, development, technical characteristics, and applications of physician-modified stents in the treatment of aortic diseases, analyzing their advantages and limitations. Physician-modified stents serve as a powerful complement to traditional endovascular interventions and commercial branched stents, yet further research and refinement are still required.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of Rotarex mechanical thrombectomy (Rotarex) combined with drug-coated balloon (DCB) versus percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) combined with DCB in the treatment of femoropopliteal artery in-stent restenosis (ISR).Methods:A multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled trial was conducted. 46 patients with femoropopliteal artery ISR admitted to five hospitals (Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University; Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, Capital Medical University; Beijing Jishuitan Hospital, Capital Medical University; Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University; Beijing Tsinghua Changgung Hospital, School of Clinical Medicine, Tsinghua University) from July 2020 to June 2024 were enrolled. Patients were randomly divided into the Rotarex+ DCB group ( n=24) and the PTA+ DCB group ( n=22) using a random number table. The clinical data of the two groups were collected, including clinical characteristics, Fontaine classification, stent placement location, stent duration, and lesion length. The primary endpoint was the target blood vessel patency rate at 6 and 12 months postoperatively; the secondary endpoints included improvement in clinical symptoms (Fontaine classification), rate of reintervention, and safety indicators. Measurement data were expressed as mean±standard deviation ( ± s), and the t-test was used for comparison between groups; count data were expressed as the number of cases and percentages, and intergroup comparisons were performed using the Chi-test or Fisher exact probability method. Results:At 12 months postoperatively, the target blood vessel patency rate in the Rotarex+ DCB group was significantly higher than that in the PTA+ DCB group (81.8% vs 45.5%, P=0.012), and the proportion of patients in Fontaine classification stage I was also higher (86.4% vs 45.5%, P=0.004). The results at the 6-month follow-up were consistent (target blood vessel patency rate: 87.0% vs 59.1%, P=0.035). In terms of safety, no severe complications such as arterial rupture, amputation, or procedure-related death occurred during the perioperative period in either group. During the postoperative follow-up, no amputation or procedure-related deaths occurred in either group. Conclusion:For the treatment of femoropopliteal artery ISR, Rotarex mechanical thrombectomy combined with DCB is significantly superior to PTA+ DCB in terms of 12-month target blood vessel patency rate and improvement of clinical symptoms, with comparable safety.

This study aims to explore whether Naoxintong Capsules improve multiple cerebral infarctions and myocardial injury via promoting angiogenesis, thereby exerting a simultaneous treatment effect on both the brain and heart. Male SD rats were randomly divided into six groups: sham-operated group, model group, high-dose, medium-dose, and low-dose groups of Naoxintong Capsules(440, 220, and 110 mg·kg~(-1)), and nimodipine group(10.8 mg·kg~(-1)). Rat models of multiple cerebral infarctions were established by injecting autologous thrombus, and samples were collected and tested seven days after modeling. Evaluations included multiple cerebral infarction model assessments, neurological function scores, grip strength tests, and rotarod tests, so as to evaluate neuromotor functions. Morphological structures of brain and heart tissue were observed using hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining, Nissl staining, and Masson staining. Network pharmacology was employed to screen the mechanisms of Naoxintong Capsules in improving multiple cerebral infarctions and myocardial injury. Neuronal and myocardial cell ultrastructures were observed using transmission electron microscopy. Apoptosis rate in brain neuronal cells was detected by TdT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling(TUNEL) staining, and reactive oxygen species(ROS) levels in myocardial cells were measured. Immunofluorescence was used to detect the expression of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1(CD31), antigen identified by monoclonal antibody Ki67(Ki67), hematopoietic progenitor cell antigen CD34(CD34), and hypoxia inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α) in brain and myocardial tissue. Western blot, and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR) were used to detect the expression of HIF-1α, vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF), vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2(VEGFR2), sarcoma(Src), basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF), angiopoietin-1(Ang-1), and TEK receptor tyrosine kinase(Tie-2). Compared with the model group, the medium-dose group of Naoxintong Capsules showed significantly lower neurological function scores, increased grip strength, and prolonged time on the rotarod. Pathological damage in brain and heart tissue was reduced, with increased and more orderly arranged mitochondria in neurons and cardiomyocytes. Apoptosis in brain neuronal cells was decreased, and ROS levels in cardiomyocytes were reduced. The microvascular density and endothelial cells of new blood vessels in brain and heart tissue increased, with increased overlapping regions of CD31 and Ki67 expression. The relative protein and mRNA expression levels of HIF-1α, VEGF, VEGFR2, Src, Ang-1, Tie-2, and bFGF were elevated in brain tissue and myocardial tissue. Naoxintong Capsules may improve multiple cerebral infarctions and myocardial injury by mediating HIF-1α/VEGF expression to promote angiogenesis.

Objective To investigate the postoperative efficacy of laparoscopic hiatal hernia repair(LHHR)combined with Toupet or Dor fundoplication for the treatment of esophageal hiatal hernia(HH).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the case data of HH patients who underwent LHHR combined with Toupet(Toupet group,n=53)and Dor(Dor group,n=53)fundoplication between December 2018 and December 2022 in Department of General Surgery of Gansu Provincial Hospital.Intraoperative and postoperative recovery outcomes of both groups were observed.We analyzed and compared the incidence of dysphagia and gastroesophageal reflux disease questionnaire(GERD-Q)scores at preoperative and postoperative intervals of 1 month,6 months,and 1 year.The incidence of postoperative complications and the 1-year recurrence rate were compared between the two groups.Additionally,factors influencing postoperative dysphagia within the first month were examined.Results The differences between the two groups in operation time,intraoperative bleeding,postoperative ventilation time,postoperative extubation time and hospitalization time were not statistically significant(P>0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of immediate postoperative dysphagia in two groups(P>0.05).Furthermore,the differences between the two groups in the incidence of postoperative complications,such as bloating,abdominal pain and diarrhea,were not statistically significant(P>0.05).The incidence of dysphagia in Toupet group was higher than that in Dor group at 1 month postoperatively,and the difference was statistically significant(P=0.017);but the difference in the incidence of dysphagia between the two groups at 6 months and 1 year postoperatively was not statistically significant(P=0.767,1.000).The results of binary logistic regression analysis showed that both surgical procedure(OR=2.613,95%CI 1.141-5.983,P=0.023)and esophageal contractile reserve function(OR=2.921,95%CI 1.203-7.095,P=0.018)were independent risk factors for the incidence of dysphagia in patients with HH at 1 month after surgery.Compared with the preoperative period,the GERD-Q symptom scores were lower in both groups at 1 month,6 months,and 1 year postoperatively,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05);but there was no statistically significant difference between the groups at the same time point(Fintergroup=0.334,P=0.565).The difference between the two groups in 1-year postoperative recurrence rates was not statistically significant(P>0.05).Conclusions LHHR combined with Toupet or Dor fundoplication are both safe and effective surgical procedures for the treatment of HH,with excellent reflux control,fewer complications and lower recurrence rates,but Toupet fundoplication is more likely to have postoperative short-term dysphagia than Dor fundoplication.

Objective To reveal the development characteristics of fat percentage and muscle mass in three nomadic populations in the Hexi Corridor of Gansu.Methods Bioelectrical impedance analysis was used to determine the values of 13 indexes of fat percentage and muscle mass in 263 cases of Gansu Kazakhs,400 cases of Gansu Mongols,and 362 cases of Yugu adults.Results In the three nomadic populations of the Hexi Corridor,visceral fat level of males was significantly positively correlated with age,while total body muscle mass and estimated bone mass were significantly negatively correlated with age.In females,percent body fat,visceral fat grade,percent left and right upper limb fat,percent right lower limb fat and percent trunk fat were all significantly positively correlated with age,while trunk muscle mass was significantly negatively correlated with age.The result of principal component analysis showed that the three nomadic populations in the Hexi Corridor were close to each other in terms of fat percentage and muscle mass characteristics,with high visceral fat grades in males and normal visceral fat grade in females.Among the 13 populations,three nomadic groups in the Hexi Corridor had high fat percentage and muscle mass.Overall,the nomadic population had greater fat percentage and muscle mass than the semi-agricultural and semi-pastoral population,and even more significantly greater than the agrarian population.The long-term integration of the historical Hexi Corridor populations result ed in the relative proximity of the genetic structure of three nomadic populations,which was a genetic factor for the proximity of their fat percentage and muscle mass.Higher per capita disposable income was a socio-economic factor for high fat percentage and muscle mass among Gansu Kazakhs and Gansu Mongolians.Low average annual temperature was an environmental factor for high muscle mass among Gansu Kazakhs and Yugus.Conclusion Gansu Kazakhs,Gansu Mongols,and Yugus have the fat percentage and muscle mass characteristic of northern Chinese populations.

Objective To reveal the characteristics of Tibetan human body composition in Gannan.Methods The body composition of 410 Tibetan adults(221 males and 189 females)in Gannan was measured by bioelectrical impedance method.The data were processed by SPSS 20.0 statistical software.Results Related analysis results showed that the total body muscle mass,estimated fat level and trunk muscle mass of the male decreased with age,while the percent body water,visceral fat level and percent trunk fat increased with age.The stature and left lower limb muscle mass of the female decreased with age,while body weight,percent body fat,body mass index,visceral fat level,percent right upper limb fat,right upper limb muscle mass,percent left upper limb,left upper limb muscle mass,percent right lower limb fat,percent left lower limb fat,left lower limb muscle mass and percent trunk fat increased with age.Analysis of single factor variance showed that there were statistically significant differences in the four indexes of male percent body water,visceral fat level,percent trunk fat and trunk muscle mass,while there were no statistically significant differences in the other 14 indexes among age groups.Females weight,stature,percent body fat,total body muscle mass,estimated fat level,body mass index,visceral fat level,percent right upper limb fat,right upper limb muscle mass,percent left upper limb fat,left upper limb muscle mass,percent right lower limb fat,percent left lower limb fat,left lower limb muscle mass,percent trunk fat,trunk muscle mass 16 index values were statistically significant differences between age groups,the remaining two index values were not statistically significant differences between age groups.The results of u test showed that the body weight,total body muscle mass,estimated fat level,percent body water,limb muscle mass and trunk muscle mass of males were higher than those of females,and percent body fat,limb fat rate,visceral fat rate and trunk fat rate of females were higher than those of males.According to the body mass index,Gannan Tibetan male and female were overweight;according to the percent body fat,Gannan Tibetan males were non-obesity and females were obesity.Conclusion The body mass index and overall fat content of Tibetan males and females in Gannan are relatively high among the 13 ethnic groups.

Objective To explore the common features of Chinese ethnic groups.Methods Eight body indexes of 62 ethnic groups in China were analyzed.Results The cluster analysis showed that 52 males and 59 females ethnic groups were grouped into the mixed group dominated by the northern ethnic group and the mixed group dominated by the southern ethnic group.Eight Han ethnic groups were grouped into each group,but no Han group was aggregated.The result of body index classification showed that the main body types of Chinese male population were long trunk,middle chest,wide shoulder,wide pelvis and middle leg.Middle body,wide chest,wide shoulder,wide pelvis and middle leg were the main body types of Chinese female population.This showed that the characteristics of Chinese ethnic groups had obvious consistency.The consistency of Chinese group features was related to its close origin.It should be said that Han nationality played an important role in the process of communication and integration of various ethnic groups in China.In the history of the Han nationality,there had been many large-scale population migration.The southern movement of the northern ethnic minorities into the northern Han and the southward movement of the northern Han into the south promoted the formation of the Southern Han,which made the southern Han and the northern Han had similar body features,and also promoted the southern ethnic minorities into the southern Han.In addition,the Han nationality who moved into minority areas also gradually integrated into minority areas.Conclusion There are obvious commonalities in Chinese ethnic groups.

Objective To explore the commonalities and differences of the body characteristics of different language groups in China.Methods The body index data of 65 343 adults(29 667 males and 35 676 females)from 8 language groups in China were measured.Principal component analysis was used to explore the characteristics of human body development in China.Results Among the eight language groups in China,the three ethnic groups of the Altai languages have the largest body weight,large trunk circumference,high stature,long lower limbs,and long trunk.The body height,length,weight and trunk circumference of the Han ethnic group were slightly inferior to those of the Altaic ethnic group.The Tibetan-Burmese ethnic group belongs to the group with higher body height,length,weight and trunk circumference in the southern ethnic group.In contrast,the Zhuang-Dong ethnic group,the Miao-Yao ethnic group and the South Asian ethnic group in the south had smaller trunk circumference,lighter weight,shorter stature,shorter lower limbs and shorter trunk.Conclusion The body characteristics of the northern(or southern)language groups are relatively close,which reflects the commonality of the characteristics of the Chinese language groups.The differences in the characteristics of Chinese language groups are mainly reflected in the fact that the index values of the three language groups in the north are significantly larger than those of the four language groups in the south.Genetic factors,geographical environment factors and social development factors all affect the body characteristics of Chinese language ethnic group.
