For the past 30 years,percutaneous balloon mitral valve dilatation has been performed under the guidance of X-rays and bedside ultrasound.However,there are still some cases of mitral valve stenosis in the large atrium where balloon dilation failed.Intraperitoneal ultrasound-guided percutaneous balloon mitral valve plasty is accurate and feasible,which can reduce the occurrence of complications and improve the success rate of such elderly complex cases.Two patients with severe mitral stenosis underwent percutaneous balloon mitral valve plasty guided by intracardiac ultrasound.The operations were successful without any complications,which can provide reference for clinical treatment of mitral stenosis.

Objective:To investigate the correlation of miR-155 expression with drug sensitivity of FLT3-ITD+acute myeloid leukemia(AML)cell line and its potential regulatory mechanism.Methods:By knocking out miR-155 gene in FLT3-ITD+AML cell line MV411 through CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing technology,monoclonal cells were screened.The genotype of these monoclonal cells was validated by PCR and Sanger sequencing.The expression of mature miRNA was measured by RT-qPCR.The treatment response of doxorubicin,quizartinib and midostaurin were measured by MTT assay and IC50 of these drugs were calculated to identify the sensitivity.Transcriptome sequencing was used to analyze change of mRNA level in MV411 cells after miR-155 knockout,gene set enrichment analysis to analyze change of signaling pathway,and Western blot to verify expressions of key molecules in signaling pathway.Results:Four heterozygotes with gene knockout and one heterozygote with gene insertion were obtained through PCR screening and Sanger sequencing.RT-qPCR results showed that the expression of mature miR-155 in the monoclonal cells was significantly lower than wild-type clones.MTT results showed that the sensitivity of MV411 cells to various anti FLT3-ITD+AML drugs increased significantly after miR-155 knockout compared with wild-type clones.RNA sequencing showed that the mTOR signaling pathway and Wnt signaling pathway were inhibited after miR-155 knockout.Western blot showed that the expressions of key molecules p-mTOR,Wnt5α and β-catenin in signaling pathway were down-regulated.Conclusion:Drug sensitivity of MV411 cells to doxorubicin,quizartinib and midostaurin can be enhanced significantly after miR-155 knockout,which is related to the inhibition of multiple signaling pathways including mTOR and Wnt signaling pathways.

Objective:To investigate the establishment method, coordination points and safe transport management strategy of vena-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) in patients with downtime difficulties during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).Methods:A observation study was conducted. The patients admitted to the department of critical care medicine of the First Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College (Yijishan Hospital) from January 2020 to October 2022 were enrolled. These patients could not be separated from CPB and received VA-ECMO-assisted CPB surgery. The clinical data of the patients were recorded, including the basic information of the patients, the data of VA-ECMO establishment and transport process, the clinical indicators before and after VA-ECMO installation, the operation data of VA-ECMO and clinical outcomes. The experience was summarized from the aspects of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) establishment, transport process, team cooperation, and adverse events during transport. The clinical indicators before and after ECMO operation were compared. According to whether ECMO was successfully weaned, the patients were divided into a successful weaning group and a failure weaning group, and the clinical data between the two groups were compared.Results:Eighteen patients who underwent VA-ECMO-assisted CPB were enrolled, including 10 males and 8 females. The average age was (56.7±12.3) years old. Preoperative left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was 0.46±0.10, and the main reasons for switching to VA-ECMO assistance included right ventricular systolic weakness in 6 cases, total cardiac systolic weakness in 5 cases, left ventricular systolic weakness in 4 cases, high pulmonary arterial pressure in 2 cases, and intractable ventricular fibrillation in 1 case. Among the 18 patients transferred from CPB to VA-ECMO, 10 cases were successfully weaned and 8 cases failed. In ICU, 8 cases survived, 5 cases died, and 5 cases gave up treatment and discharged. The average time for successful CPB to VA-ECMO establishment was (24.6±7.4) minutes, initial blood flow was (3.3±0.4) L/min, and transit time was (8.4±1.5) minutes. ECMO-assisted duration averaged (82.0±69.3) hours. Adverse events occurred in 9 patients during ECMO establishment and transfer. Post-ECMO onboarding for 4 hours, significant improvements were noted in blood lactic acid (Lac), pH value, mean arterial pressure (MAP), central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO 2) as compared with pre-ECMO onboarding [Lac (mmol/L): 10.5±7.0 vs. 15.2±6.8, pH value: 7.38±0.92 vs. 7.26±0.87, MAP (mmHg, 1 mmHg≈0.133 kPa): 74.9±13.7 vs. 58.4±17.0, ScvO 2: 0.678±0.065 vs. 0.611±0.061, all P < 0.01], and vasoactive-inotropic score (VIS) was also decreased (39.8±29.8 vs. 68.9±64.4, P < 0.01). Compared with successful weaning group, the patients in the failed weaning group exhibited higher pre-machine Lac (mmol/L: 18.8±7.8 vs. 12.3±4.3, P < 0.05), longer CPB time [minutes: 238.0 (208.8, 351.2) vs. 200.0 (185.8, 217.0), P < 0.05], and shorter ECMO-assisted time [hours: 19.5 (11.0, 58.8) vs. 94.5 (65.8, 179.8), P < 0.01]. However, there was no statistically significant difference in pre-machine pH value, ScvO 2, MAP, VIS score, and initial blood flow and establishment time of ECMO between the two groups. Conclusions:VA-ECMO is an effective circulatory aid for CPB surgery that cannot be weaned after CPB. The establishment and transfer of CPB "bridge" to ECMO aid depends on multi-disciplinary treatment (MDT) cooperation. The success rate of ECMO weaning is related to the Lac and CPB duration. If it is not possible to detach from the CPB successfully, VA-ECMO should be initiated as early as possible.

Objective To investigate the dosimetric effects of different calculation grid size(CGS)in helical tomotherapy(HT)planning system on stereotactic body radiation therapy(SBRT)for non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Methods Nine NSCLC patients receiving radiation therapy for the first time at some hospital from March 2019 to December 2022 were selected as the subjects.SBRT planning was carried out through the HT system with three different CGS plans(Fine,Normal,and Coarse)and the same pitch,modulation factor(MF)and optimization conditions,and the target area indexes of the three CGS plans were compared including conformity index(CI),homogeneity index(HI),dosimetric parameters of the organ at risk(OAR),point dose verification pass rate,treatment time,number of monitor units and Sinograms.SPSS 22.0 was used for statistical analysis.Results For target area HI,there weres significant differences between CGS Fine plan and Coarse plan and between CGS Normal plan and Coarse plan(P＜0.05),while no statistical differences were found between CGS Fine plan and Normal plan(P＞0.05).For target area CI,there were significant differences between CGS Fine plan and Coarse plan(P＜0.05),while no statistical differences were found between CGS Fine plan and Normal plan and between CGS Normal plan and Coarse plan(P＞0.05).For OAR dosimetric parameters,CGS Fine plan and Coarse plan had significant differences in heart Dmax and Dmean,esophageal Dmax and Dmean,V5,V20,V30 and Dmean of the whole lung and affected lung,V5 and Dmax of the affected lung and heart V10 and V30(P＜0.05),CGS Normal plan and Coarse plan had obvious differences in esophageal Dmax(P＜0.05),and the remained dosimetric parameters were not statistically significant(P＞0.05).Fine,Normal and Coarse plans had the point dose verifica-tion pass rates being 0.96％,1.50％and 1.77％,respectively.In terms of treatment time and number of monitor units,there were significant differences between Fine plan and Coarse plan(P＜0.05)while no statistical differences were found between Fine and Normal plans and between Normal and Coarse plans(P＞0.05).Sinograms analyses showed Fine plan had evenly distributed segment color gradient,Coarse plan had areas of very dark and very light color gradients and Normal plan was somewhere in between.Conclusion Low CGS has to be used as much as possible to obtain accurate dose distribution during SBRT planning for NSCLC patients,which contributes to the execution of the radiation therapy plan and the prevention of ad-verse effects.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2024,45(2):52-57]

Traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome (TSOFS) is a symptom complex caused by nerve entrapment in the supraorbital fissure after skull base trauma. If the compressed cranial nerve in the supraorbital fissure is not decompressed surgically, ptosis, diplopia and eye movement disorder may exist for a long time and seriously affect the patients′ quality of life. Since its overall incidence is not high, it is not familiarized with the majority of neurosurgeons and some TSOFS may be complicated with skull base vascular injury. If the supraorbital fissure surgery is performed without treatment of vascular injury, it may cause massive hemorrhage, and disability and even life-threatening in severe cases. At present, there is no consensus or guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS that can be referred to both domestically and internationally. To improve the understanding of TSOFS among clinical physicians and establish standardized diagnosis and treatment plans, the Skull Base Trauma Group of the Neurorepair Professional Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Neurosurgery Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Traumatology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome ( version 2024) based on evidence of evidence-based medicine and clinical experience of diagnosis and treatment. This consensus puts forward 12 recommendations on the diagnosis, classification, treatment, efficacy evaluation and follow-up of TSOFS, aiming to provide references for neurosurgeons from hospitals of all levels to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Based on WANG Xugao's “thirty methods of treating the liver”， it is believed that the occurrence and development of childhood tic disorders follow the dynamic progression from liver qi disease to liver fire disease and then liver wind disease. The basic pathogenesis of three stages are characterized by binding constraint of liver qi， liver fire hyperactivity， and internal stirring of liver wind. Moreover， liver-blood deficiency and stagnation， and malnutrition of liver yin as the main point in terms of the imbalance of liver qi， blood， yin， and yang should be considered， as well as the imbalance relationship of the five zang organs such as the involvement of other organs and the gradually reach of the other organs. Guided by the principles of “thirty methods of treating the liver”， the treatment of tic disorders in liver qi stage should focus on soothing the liver and rectifying qi， soothing the liver and unblocking the collaterals， using Xiaochaihu Decoction （小柴胡汤） and Sini Powder （四逆散）. The treatment of tic disorders in liver fire stage involves clearing， draining and resolving liver heat， using Longdan Xiegan Decoction （龙胆泻肝汤）， Xieqing Pill （泻青丸）， Danggui Longhui Pill （当归龙荟丸）， and Huagan Decoction （化肝煎）. The treatment of tic disorders in liver wind stage involves extinguishing wind and subduing yang， using Lingjiao Gouteng Decoction （羚角钩藤汤） and Liuwei Dihuang Pill （六味地黄丸）. Throughout the treatment process， attention should be paid to harmonizing the liver's qi， blood， yin， and yang， as well as addressing the pathology of other organs.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics and trends in the prevalence of tuberculosis among in the six urban districts of Tianjin from 2014 to 2023, so as to provide scientific basis for the prevention and control of tuberculosis. Methods Data on the occurrence of new tuberculosis cases among in the six urban districts of Tianjin from 2014 to 2023 were collected through the Tianjin Infectious Disease Report Information Management System, and the epidemiological characteristics of new tuberculosis cases were descriptively analyzed. Then the Average Annual Percentage Change (AAPC) statistics were used to characterize the magnitude and direction of trends. Results A total of 17 818 tuberculosis cases were reported in the six urban districts of Tianjin from 2014 to 2023 , with an average annual reported prevalence rate of 25.61/100 000. The prevalence rate of tuberculosis in the six urban districts of Tianjin from 2014 to 2023 showed a decreasing trend, reporting a prevalence rate of 35.47/100 000 in 2014 and 22.72/100 000 in 2023, and AAPC is -4.86% (-7.13% to -1.56%) , with statistical difference (P<0.05). In terms of gender, the overall prevalence rate of tuberculosis was 31.17/100,000 in males and 19.47/100,000 in females, with statistical difference (χ²=276.12 , P<0.05). The incidence in people younger than 25 years and older than 55 years is on the rise from 2014 to 2023. In terms of occupation, household duties, unemployed people, retired people and office clerks showed a high prevalence rate of tuberculosis. Conclusion The overall prevalence of adult tuberculosis in the six urban districts of Tianjin from 2014 to 2023 shows a decreasing trend, whereas the prevalence rate of males is higher than that of females, and the elderly, families, unemployed people, retirees and office clerks are high-risk groups, so targeted preventive and control measures, health education and screening should be strengthened.
