Objective:To explore the advantages of internet-based smart healthcare for full-cycle transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) management in reducing postoperative adverse events rate, improving cardiac function, and enhancing quality of life.Methods:This retrospective study enrolled patients with mitral regurgitation who underwent transcatheter TEER at Beijing Anzhen Hospital Valve Intervention Center between June 2021 and September 2023. Patients were classified into degeneration mitral regurgitation (DMR) and functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) according to etiology, with further stratification by enrollment period into usual care group (June 2021 to October 2022) and full-cycle management group (November 2022 to September 2023). The 1-year postoperative follow-up data were collected and compared between subgroups with the same etiology. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were plotted, and log-rank tests were used to compare the differences in major endpoint event-free survival rates between the two groups. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression and logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate the impact of the full-cycle management system on patients′ outcomes.Results:A total of 130 patients were included, aged (72.0±8.6) years, including 82 (63%) males. DMR was identified in 84 cases (40 in the usual care group and 44 in the full-cycle management group), while FMR was observed in 46 cases (27 in the usual care group and 19 in the full-cycle management group). Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated higher 1-year major endpoint event-free survival rates in the full-cycle management group compared to the usual care group, though the difference was not statistically significant (log-rank P>0.05). Compared to the usual care group, the full-cycle management group showed significantly higher proportions of New York Heart Association classification Ⅰ-Ⅱ patients (DMR: 67% vs. 52%, P=0.031; FMR: 68% vs. 52%, P=0.021), greater 6-minute walking distances (DMR: (346.39±70.41) m vs. (294.11±60.47) m, P=0.012; FMR: (356.60±54.68) m vs. (318.55±39.02) m, P=0.004), and superior Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire scores (DMR: 81.50 (74.50, 85.00) points vs. 71.00 (66.00, 82.25) points, P=0.014; FMR: 83.00 (76.00, 85.00) points vs. 74.00 (70.75, 80.00) points, P=0.030). Multivariate logistic regression confirmed the full-cycle management system as an independent predictor for the above improved outcomes (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Smart healthcare-based full-cycle management improves cardiac function and quality of life in mitral regurgitation patients after TEER, demonstrating lower rates of major endpoint events compared to usual care.

Objective::To evaluate the feasibility, safety, and effectiveness of a novel edge-to-edge mitral valve repair system (the NovoClasp system) in patients with severe mitral regurgitation.Methods::In this prospective, single-arm, first-in-human study conducted at Beijing Anzhen Hospital, data were collected from patients undergoing transcatheter edge-to-edge repair using the NovoClasp system. The study candidates were patients exhibiting a mitral regurgitation severity of 3+ or more and were at high-risk or contraindicated for surgical intervention. Technical success and device success according to the Mitral Valve Academic Research Consortium definitions were used as primary outcomes. Other safety and efficacy outcomes were prospectively assessed at device implantation, discharge, and 30 d, 6 months, and 12 months post-procedure.Results::Between October 1, 2021, and January 31, 2022, 11 patients were treated for moderate-to-severe (grade 3+) or severe (grade 4+) mitral regurgitation using the NovoClasp system. All patients had a baseline New York Heart Association functional class of III-IV, with 7/11 exhibiting complex mitral valve disease. All patients achieved the primary endpoints of technical and device success, with a post-operative 30-d mitral regurgitation grade reduction to 2+ or lower, which was maintained at 12 months. One patient had minor bleeding and hematoma at the access site before discharge, and 2 patients were readmitted due to fast atrial fibrillation within 12 months post-discharge. No additional cases of death, adverse cerebral or cardiovascular events, or device-related complications was observed during the follow-up.Conclusion::This study suggested the potential feasibility and safety of the NovoClasp system, showing a promising technical and device success rate, along with a decrease in mitral regurgitation severity. A further pivotal study is needed to assess the procedural and long-term outcomes.

Aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common primary valve lesion requiring surgery or transcatheter intervention in modern era. Its prevalence is rising rapidly as a consequence of the aging population. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) as a therapy option for older high-risk symptomatic severe AS patients has emerged and is currently extending its indications towards surgery intermediate- and low-risk subjects. Considering the common characteristics of frailty and high comorbidity among AS patients, cardiac rehabilitation (CR) has been proven to improve not only survival but also quality of life in previous reports. CR as a classⅠ recommendation in guidelines for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease has been widely used in clinical practice. The purpose of this article is to sort out the current CR programs for TAVR patients in global medical management, and explore the CR optimization program fit for China medical model in post COVID-19 pandemic era.

ObjectiveTo investigate the social support status and influencing factors of schizophrenics in remission in Northeast Sichuan， and to provide ideas for improving their social support. MethodsFrom May to September 2020， a total of 533 patients who met the diagnosis criteria of the International Classification of Diseases， tenth edition （ICD-10） for schizophrenics in remission at the mental health institutions in Guangyuan， Bazhong and Dazhou cities were selected for the survey， and patients were assessed by self-made demographic and clinical data inventory and Social Support Rating Scale （SSRS）. Then the social support status of schizophrenic in remission and influencing factors were analyzed， meantime， the impact of the second round reimbursement policy of medical insurance benefits on their social support was addressed particularly. Results①The SSRS total score， objective support， subjective support， and utilization of support scores of schizophrenics in remission were lower than those of the national norm （t=5.065~30.382， P<0.01）. ②Univariate analysis showed that SSRS score was relatively high among patients with female gender （t=-3.632）， retired status （F=5.951）， married status （F=5.951）， spouse as primary caregiver （F=23.841）， annual household income >5 000 yuan （F=15.892）， patient's economic income （t=4.083）， and outpatient or online follow-up （F=3.954）， with statistically significant differences （P<0.05 or 0.01）. ③The total and dimensional scores of SSRS in patients with access to the second round medical insurance reimbursement were significantly higher than those without （t=10.195~25.103， P<0.01）. ④Multiple linear regression analysis denoted that gender， work status， marital status， primary caregivers， annual family income， economic income， follow-up visits and the second round medical insurance reimbursement were the factors influencing social support status of schizophrenics in remission （β=0.201~2.115， P<0.05 or 0.01）. ConclusionThe social support of schizophrenics in remission in Northeast Sichuan is below the national average， furthermore， their social support levels are affected by the gender， work status， marital status， primary caregivers， annual family income， economic income， follow-up visits and the second round medical insurance reimbursement， and the second round medical insurance reimbursement may ameliorate the social support status of patients.

ObjectiveTo compare the clinical effect between laparoscopic retrograde cholecystectomy and partial cholecystectomy in the treatment of patients with complex bile duct diseases. MethodsThe clinical data of 83 patients with bile duct diseases who were diagnosed and treated in Guangyuan Mental Health Center from June 2013 to March 2015 were collected. Among these patients, 40 underwent laparoscopic retrograde cholecystectomy (group A), and 43 underwent partial cholecystectomy (group B). The surgical procedure and postoperative recovery were compared between the two groups. The independent samples t-test was applied for comparison of continuous data between groups, and the paired t-test was applied for comparison of continuous data within each group before and after treatment; the chi-square test was applied for comparison of categorical data between groups. ResultsCompared with group A, group B had a significantly shorter time of operation, a significantly less blood loss, a significantly lower volume of intraoperative fluid infusion, and a significantly lower volume of peritoneal drainage (t=9.245, 2.394, 2.529, and 3.603, all P＜0.05). The rate of conversion to laparotomy, time to functional recovery of the gastrointestinal tract, and length of hospital stay showed no significant differences between the two groups (all P＞0.05). The body temperature and C-reactive protein on days 1-3 after surgery showed no significant differences between the two groups (all P＞005), while in both groups, the body temperature and C-reactive protein were significantly lower on the 2nd and 3rd days than on the 1st day. (t=3.184, 3.402, 3.151, 3.390, 3.497, 5.184, 3.916, and 6.024, all P＜0.05). Group B had a significantly lower incidence of postoperative complications than group A (2.33% vs 20.00%, χ2=6.696, P=0.010). ConclusionCompared with laparoscopic retrograde cholecystectomy, partial cholecystectomy can shorten the time of operation and reduce intraoperative bleeding and postoperative complications, and holds promise for clinical application.
