Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of domestic RECO flow restoration device in endovascular treatment of acute ischemic stroke(AIS)patients in a real-world setting.Methods From January 2019 to June 2021,consecutive patients with acute intracranial vessel occlusion treated with RECO device from 8 stroke centers in Jiangsu Province were analyzed retrospectively.Baseline and clinical data were collected,including age,gender,baseline modified Rankin scale(mRS)scores,National Institutes of Health stroke scale(NIHSS)score on admission,trial of Org 10172 in acute stroke treatment(TOAST)classification,responsible location of occlusion,wake-up stroke,and medical history(hypertension,diabetes mellitus,hyperlipidemia,atrial fibrillation,coronary heart disease,peripheral arterial disease),smoking,and alcohol consumption.Furthermore,surgical parameters were collected,including time indicators(intervals between symptom onset,admission,puncture and recanalization),preoperative intravenous thrombolysis,general anesthesia,combination of aspiration,number of passes,first pass effect(modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction[mTICI]grade 3 achieved with s single stent-based thrombectomy),rescue therapy(including thrombectomy with other stents,intra-arterial urokinase thrombolysis,intra-arterial application of tirofiban,emergency angioplasty[stent implantation,balloon dilatation,balloon dilatation combined with stent implantation]),balloon guided catheter and NIHSS score at discharge.The effectiveness indicators included immediate successful recanalization after the operation(mTICI grade ≥ 2b),complete recanalization(mTICI grade 3),and a good prognosis at 90 d after the operation(mRS score ≤2).The safety indicators included symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage(sICH)within 24 h after the operation,device-related intraoperative complications(such as thrombus escape,iatrogenic dissection,bleeding at the surgical site),and all-cause mortality within 90 days after the operation.All patients were divided into the anterior circulation occlusion group and the posterior circulation occlusion group according to the location of the responsible occluded vessel,and the effectiveness and safety indexes were analyzed.Results A total of 366 patients with AIS caused by intracranial vessel occlusion who underwent mechanical thrombectomy with the domestic RECO thrombectomy stent were included.The average age was(69±11)years,with 54 patients(14.8％)over 80 years old and 221 patients(60.4％)male.There were 296 patients in the anterior circulation occlusion group and 70 patients in the posterior circulation occlusion group.(1)Immediate successful recanalization(mTICI grade≥2b)was achieved in 337 patients(92.1％),and complete recanalization was achieved in 282 patients(77.0％)immediately after the operation.The average number of thrombectomies was(1.9±1.0)times,and 141 patients(38.5％)achieved recanalization on the first attempt.9 patients(2.5％)used other stents during the operation,and 65 patients(17.8％)underwent emergency angioplasty.The incidence of sICH within 24 h after the operation was 10.9％(40/366),the good prognosis rate at 90 d after the operation was 53.6％(196/366),and the all-cause mortality rate at 90 d after the operation was 23.0％(84/366).The incidence of device-related intraoperative complications was 3.6％(13/366).The median time from arterial puncture to recanalization was 75(52,110)min,and the median time from onset to recanalization was 370(280,488)min.(2)The good prognosis rates at 90 d after the operation in the anterior and posterior circulation occlusion groups were 55.1％(163/296)and 47.1％(33/70),respectively.The immediate successful recanalization rates were 93.2％(276/296)and 87.1％(61/70),respectively.The immediate complete recanalization rates were 79.1％(234/296)and 68.6％(48/70),respectively.The incidence of sICH within 24h after the operation was 12.2％(36/296)and 5.7％(4/70),respectively.The incidence of device-related intraoperative complications was 3.7％(11/296)and 2.9％(2/70),respectively.The all-cause mortality rate within 90 d after the operation was 21.6％(64/296)and 28.6％(20/70),respectively.There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in the above aspects(all P＞0.05).Conclusions The application of the domestic RECO thrombectomy stent in the treatment of AIS caused by intracranial vessel occlusion can effectively and safely achieve vascular recanalization.The results of this study still need to be further verified by prospective controlled studies.

Objective Radiation can cause multiple damages to tissues and organs.This study aimed to explore the protec-tive effect of Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides ( GLPs) against the 60 Co-γray radiation injury in mice and provide an experimental basis for the clinical use of GLPs. Methods One hundred mice were randomly divided into five groups of equal number: normal control, gavage control, radiation control, high-dose GLPs, and low-dose GLPs.Models of radiation injury were made in the mice by whole-body exposure to 60 Co-γrays.Three days before and after mod-eling, the animals in the high-dose and low-dose GLPs groups were given GLPs intragastrically at the dose of 100 and 50 mg/kg respec-tively, once daily for 14 days.Then the 30 day survival rate and sur-vival time of the model mice were recorded and the changes in the pe-ripheral blood index, spleen index, and serum superoxide dismutase( SOD) activity were observed. Results GLPs significantly increased the 30-day survival rate and the mean survival time of the mouse models (P<0.05), decreased the reduction of WBC count in the peripheral blood, and shortened the time of WBC restoration ( P<0.05 ) .Furthermore, GLPs obviously improved the spleen index and SOD activity of the Co-γray irradiated animals. Conclusion GLPs, with a significant anti-radiation effect, can effectively raise the survival rate of the mice exposed to a lethal dose of 60 Co-γrays, reduce radiation injury to WBC and platelets, and increase the activity of SOD in irradiated mice.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of local injection of botulinum toxin A ( BTX-A ) combined with infrared polarized light for patients with chronic migraine ( CM ). Methods Ninety-one patients with CM were randomly divided into 4 groups.Group A served as the control group in which Nimodipine was used to treat CM ( n =22 ) ; in group B infrared polarized light was used to irradiate the area of the CM for 50 to 60 d ( n =22 ) ; in group C subcutaneous injections of BTX-A were used ( n =24 ) ; and in group D infrared polarized light irradiation of the affected area was combined with subcutaneous injections of BTX-A ( n =23 ).The onset of headaches,their severity,quality of life,as well as side effects were recorded using the migraine disability assessment scale (MIDAS) and the short form of the medical outcomes study form (MOS-SF).The results obtained before and after 6 months of treatment were compared. Results Both of MIDAS and MOS-SF assessment showed significant differences before treatment and after 1,3 and 6 months of treatment in all groups.After 1,3 and 6 months of treatment,the MIDSA and MOS-SF results revealed statistically significant differences between groups A and D,as well as between groups B and C. Conclusion BTX-A injection combined with infrared polarized light exerts significant therapeutic effects on CM with few side effects.
