Objective To compare the effects of remimazolam and propofol on postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV)after pancreatic extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy(P-ESWL),with the aim of optimizing the anesthesia regimen for this procedure.Methods Clinical data were retrospectively collected from patients who underwent P-ESWL for pancreatic stones under general anesthesia at The First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from January 2021 to December 2024.A total of 307 patients were recruited,with 103 in the remimazolam group and 204 in the propofol group.Inverse probability of treatment weighting(IPTW)based on propensity scores was used to balance baseline characteristics and confounding factors between the two groups.The incidence of PONV and anesthesia recovery time were compared between the two groups.Results Before IPTW,there were statistically significant differences between the remimazolam and propofol groups in gender[male/female:51/52 vs.155/49],smoking history(27.2％vs.42.6％),intraoperative sufentanil use[25(10)μg vs.30(10)μg],remifentanil use[429.00(177)μg vs.480.50(209)μg],rocuronium use[36(6)mg vs.38(7)mg],and intraoperative dexamethasone use(62.1％vs.49.0％)(all P＜0.05).After IPTW,the baseline characteristics and confounding factors were balanced and comparable between the two groups(P＞0.05).Before IPTW,the incidence of PONV was higher in the remimazolam group than in the propofol group(24.3％vs.14.7％,P=0.039).After IPTW,the two groups did not significantly differ in the incidence of PONV(21.5％vs.17.5％,P=0.215),and the anesthesia recovery time was significantly shorter in the remimazolam group than in the propofol group[3(3)min vs.9(4)min,P＜0.001].Conclusion Compared to propofol anesthesia,remimazolam does not increase the incidence of PONV in patients undergoing P-ESWL for pancreatic stones and can effectively reduce anesthesia recovery time.

Objective:To explore the clinical effects and value for application of the tibial flap of the second toe with the vascular pedicle including a plantar vein on the reconstruction of fingertip soft tissue defects.Methods:From October 2020 to August 2022, retrospective analysis of 12 patients (12 digits) were treated at the Department of Hand Surgery, Suzhou Ruihua Orthopaedic Hospital for small soft tissue defects of fingertip. The patients were 9 males and 3 females and aged 29-54 years, at 38 years in average. The fingertip defects were measured at approximately 1.2 cm × 0.8 cm to 1.2 cm × 1.2 cm. In the surgery, a tibial flap of second toe was designed to reconstruct the defect in fingertip. The flap were designed on the tibial of second toe without an extended incision in dorsal foot. The pedicle of the flap carried with the lateral proper digital artery, a nerve and the plantar vein of the second toe. At the recipient site, the artery, nerve and vein carried by the pedicle of the flap were end-to-end anastomosed with the digital artery, digital nerve and subcutaneous vein of the finger. The flaps were measured at 1.5 cm×1.0 cm - 1.5 cm×1.5 cm in size. All donor sites were reconstructed with skin grafts from the ipsilateral calf. Scheduled postoperative follow-ups were conducted at the outpatient clinic. The Michigan Hand Function Questionnaire (MHQ) evaluation criteria was employed to assess the recovery of hand function, and Total Active Movement (TAM) was used to evaluate the recovery of range of motion of the interphalangeal joints of the affected fingers.Results:All 12 flaps in the fingertips survived. Postoperative follow-ups lasted from 6 months to 2 years, with an average of 11 months. One flap was slightly bloated and a flap aesthetic surgery was followed at 3 months after the primary reconstructive surgery, and the rest of flaps were all in good appearance. TPD was found at 12 -14 mm for all flaps at 9 months after surgery. All donor sites in the feet and calfs had primary healing, without a contracture or rupture of skin graft or an obvious dysfunction at the donor sites. According to the evaluation criteria of the MHQ, 8 patients were very satisfied with the overall appearance of the hand, and 4 were satisfied. Finger movement was evaluated according to TAM criteria, all 12 fingers were rated excellent.Conclusion:Reconstruction of a fingertip defect with a tibial flap of the second toe with the vascular pedicle including a plantar vein of the second toe has a good clinical efficacy. It has advantages in flap harvest, avoids an extended incision on dorsal foot, and makes a minimal damage to the donor site.

Objective:To explore the application value and treatment effects of multiple free anterolateral perforator flaps of calf for reconstruction of multiple digital wounds in single hand.Methods:From August 2020 to March 2022, 12 patients with soft tissue defects in 35 digits were treated in Department of Hand Surgery, Suzhou Ruihua Orthopaedic Hospital. Ten patients were male and 2 were female, aged 25 to 58 years old. Of the patients, 1 had soft tissue defects in 5 digits, 3 in 4 digits, 2 in 3 digits and 6 in 2 digits. The size of defects was from 1.2 cm ×1.2 cm to 7.0 cm×3.5 cm after debridement. The vascular perforators discovered from intraoperative explorations were found originating from the superficial peroneal artery in 24 flaps, from the peroneal artery in 7 flaps and from the anterior tibial artery in 4 flaps. During surgery, the perforator artery and accompanying veins of the flaps were anastomosed with the proper digital artery and palmar or dorsal subcutaneous veins in the recipient site, respectively. The size of the flaps was from 1.5 cm×1.5 cm to 7.5 cm×4.0 cm. No nerve was affected in the surgery. The wound at donor sites in the calf was sutured directly. Regular postoperative follow-ups were conducted at outpatient clinics. The comprehensive evaluation scale of flap was used to assess the conditions of the donor and recipient sites.Results:In this study, all 35 soft tissue defects of digits in 12 patients were reconstructed by the anterolateral perforator flaps of calf. All the 35 flaps survived after surgery, with a 100% of survival rate. The patients were instructed to carry out early functional training after surgery. Follow-up lasted 6 to 24 months, with an average of 11 months. Twenty-five flaps were found in slightly swollen, and further flap thinning surgery were carried out 3 months after the primary surgery, while the rest of the flaps had good appearance and texture. At 6 months after surgery, all flaps recovered a partial deep and shallow sensory and sense of touch. All wound at donor sites in calf had one-stage healing without dysfunction. The comprehensive evaluation scale was excellent in 28 flaps and good in 7 flaps. The excellent and good rate was 100%.Conclusion:It is an effective method to use multiple free anterolateral perforator flaps of calf to reconstruct multiple digit defects in single hand. The flaps can be conveniently harvested and the multiple digital defects in single hand can be reconstructed in primary surgery with small damages to the donor sites and together with satisfactory clinical outcomes.

Objective To investigate the awareness, implementation, and application of the Radiation Shielding Specification for Radiotherapy Room, Part 3: Radiotherapy Room of γ-Ray Sources (GBZ/T201.3—2014) by medical institution personnel, to collect problems and recommendations, and to provide a scientific basis for further amendments and implementation of the standard. Methods A questionnaire survey about the awareness, training and application situation and the modification advices of the standard was conducted among practitioners engaged in the production, use, and machine room design related to γ-ray source radiotherapy equipment (collectively referred to as medical institution personnel) in 12 provinces and direct-administered municipalities in China. The questionnaires were collected and a special Excel database was set up for statistical analysis using SPSS 22.0. Results A total of 126 practitioners responded and completed the questionnaire. Approximately 75.4% of respondents indicated that they either “understood” or “understood well” the standard; 42.86% received relevant training; 45.24% and 54.76% indicated that the standard “met” or “basically met” the requirements of detection of γ-ray radiotherapy equipment shielding or design of shielding room. The standard was highly evaluated for suitability. However, the awareness of the standard was inadequate, the rate of training participation was low, and its practical application was limited. Conclusion The standard generally aligns with the requirements for shielding room design in γ-ray radiotherapy. Some revisions should be done according to the current situation of γ-ray radiotherapy.

Objective:To explore the application value of neurovascular three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction with 3D-slicer software in the preoperative diagnosis of neurovascular relations and offending arteries in patients with vertebrobasilar dilatation (VBD) complicated with facial muscle spasm (HFS).Methods:The clinical data of 42 patients with VBD complicated with HFS accepted microvascular decompression (MVD) in our hospital from January 2016 to February 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The data of skull 3D-TOF MR angiography and 3D-FiESTA MR imaging were imported into 3D-slicer software to establish 3D models of the blood vessels, brain stem and facial auditory nerves of the patients before surgery. The neurovascular relations and offending arteries found during surgery were compared with those diagnosed by 3D-TOF MR angiography combined with 3D-FiESTA MR imaging and 3D models.Results:The consistencies of neurovascular relations and offending arteries found during surgery and those showed by 3D models were good ( Kappa=0.889, P=0.000; Kappa=0.869, P=0.000). The consistency of neurovascular relations showed by 3D models and those diagnosed by 3D-TOF MR angiography combined with 3D-FiESTA MR imaging was good( Kappa=0.809, P=0.000); there was no significant difference between the two methods in diagnosing neurovascular relations ( McNemar-Bowker=5.000, P=0.082). The consistency of offending arteries showed by 3D models and those diagnosed by 3D-TOF MR angiography combined with 3D-FiESTA MR imaging was poor ( Kappa=0.336, P=0.000); there was significant difference between the two methods in diagnosing offending arteries ( McNemar-Bowker=23.000, P=0.000). Conclusion:The 3D-slicer software is used to perform 3D simultaneous reconstruction of blood vessels, nerves and brain stem in the cerebellopontine angle, and the results are highly consistent with surgical findings; 3D-slicer software is more helpful than 3D-TOF MR angiography combined with 3D-FiESTA MR imaging in identification of offending arteries, surgical risk assessment and surgical strategy formulation in patients with VBD complicated with HFS.

Objective: To explore the relationship between longitudinal trajectory of systolic blood pressure (SPB) and atrial fibrillation (AF) in Kailuan group population. Methods: Our study cohort consisted of 40727 participants with the specific criteria in Kailuan group, Tangshan. SAS Proc Traj procedure was used to identify longitudinal trajectories of SPB throughout 2006-2007, 2008-2009 and 2010-2011. There were 5 longitudinal trajectories generated: Low-stable group,n=10950, Moderate-stable group, n=19158, Moderate-high stable group,n=3713, High-moderate stable group,n=4702 and High stable group,n=2181. Log-rank test was performed to compare AF incidence throughout 2012-2013 and 2014-2015 by physical examination among different groups; Multi Cox regression analysis was conducted to study the relationship among different SBP longitudinal trajectories and AF occurrence. Results:①The mean age of participants was (51.81±11.54) years including 30693 (75.4%) male.②AF occurrence rates in Low-stable, Moderate-stable, Moderate-high stable, High-moderate stable and High stable groups were 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.5%, 0.5% and 0.6% respectively, allP<0.05.③Multi Cox regression analysis presented that with adjusted confounding factors, compared with the patients in Low-stable group, Moderate-high stable, High-moderate stable and High stable SBP longitudinal trajectories were the risk factors for new AF occurrence (HR=7.58, 95% CI 2.08-27.73), (HR=5.30, 95% CI 1.88-14.95) and (HR=8.52, 95% CI 1.96-37.09) respectively, allP<0.05. With excluded history of myocardial infarction/stroke, the sensitivity study showed the similar result with the major research trend. Conclusion: Elevated long trajectory of SPB was the risk factor for new AF occurrence in Kailuan group population.
