Objective To evaluate the short-term efficacy of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) using Venus A-Plus valve delivery system in patients with severe aortic stenosis. Methods The clinical data of patients undergoing TAVR in our hospital from August 2018 to March 2022 were collected and they were divided into a Venus A-Plus and a Venus A group according to the type of valve delivery system used. The perioperative data of the two groups were compared. Results A total of 121 patients were included, including 70 patients in the Venus A-Plus group [45 males and 25 females with a mean age of (67.81±6.62) years], and 51 patients in the Venus A group [33 males and 18 females with a mean age of (68.25±7.01) years]. All patients underwent TAVR, and the postoperative hemodynamic features (left ventricular ejection fraction, mean cross-valve pressure difference, peak flow rate) were significantly improved (P<0.05). There was no statistical difference in surgical success rate, all-cause mortality, conversion to thorax opening, valve-in-valve placement, moderate or above perivalvular regurgitation, new left bundle branch block or new right bundle branch block between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion TAVR with Venus A-Plus valve delivery system in patients with severe aortic stenosis shows comparable efficacy to the first-generation Venus A system and is satisfactory, safe and reliable.

Objective To investigate the new-onset conduction block after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and summarize the relevant experience. Methods The perioperative data of TAVR patients in the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2016 to February 2023 were collected, and the new-onset incidence of conduction block after TAVR was analyzed retrospectively. Results Finally 352 patients were included, including 225 males and 127 females, with an average age of (67.2±5.1) years, among whom 256 patients were treated with Venus-A valves, 69 patients with Vita-Flow valves, and 27 patients with J-Valve valves. There were 38 (10.8%) patients of new-onset postoperative block. There were 6 (1.7%) patients of new-onset postoperative grade Ⅲ atrioventricular block, including 5 (2.0%) patients of Venus-A and 1 (1.4%) patient of Vita-Flow. Conduction function was restored in 2 patients within 14 days after surgery, and failed to be restored in 4 patients, who then received permanent pacemaker implantation in the Department of Cardiology. There were 27 (7.7%) patients of new left bundle branch block after surgery, including 22 (8.6%) patients of Venus-A, 4 (5.8%) patients of Vita-Flow and 1 (3.7%) patient of J-Valve; and conduction function was restored within 7 days after surgery in 23 patients, and 5 (1.4%) patients developed new right bundle branch blocks after surgery including 4 (1.5%) patients of Venus-A and 1 (1.4%) patient of Vita-Flow. Conclusion New-onset conduction block is a common complication after TAVR, and the new-onset rate of left bundle branch block is the highest, followed by the grade Ⅲ atrioventricular block. Mastering reasonable methods and applying appropriate strategies can effectively reduce the new-onset rate of postoperative conduction block and improve the overall success rate of TAVR surgery.

Objective To explore the effect of acyl-CoA synthetase short-chain family member 3(ACSS3)gene on the proliferation of human large cell lung cancer cells(NCI-H460)using CRISPR/Cas 9 gene editing technology.Methods The expression of ACSS3 was detected by Western blot.ACSS3-targeting sgRNAs were designed,and a CRISPR/Cas 9 knockout vector was constructed and transfected into NCI-H460 cells.The transfected cells were selected with puromycin based on vector-carried resistance.ACSS3-knockout monoclonal cell strains were established by limited dilution method and then expanded in culture.Knockout efficiency was confirmed by Western blot.Cell proliferation was assessed using MTT and colony formation assays.Results The expression of ACSS3 was significantly elevated in NCI-H460 cells as compared with human normal lung epithelial cells BEAS-2B(P＜0.05).No ACSS3 protein was detected in the knockout monoclonal strain,indicating successful generation of ACSS3-knockout NCI-H460 cells.Compared with the control cells transfected with empty vector,the proliferation and colo-ny formation ability were inhibited in NCI-H460 cells with ACSS3 knockout(P＜0.05).Conclusions The ACSS3-knockout NCI-H460 cell strain was successfully established,which provides a foundation for further study on the role of ACSS3 in lung cancer.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of self injury or suicide in adolescent patients with depression.Methods A total of 96 adolescents who were diagnosed with depressive disorder at Yunnan Psychiatirc Hospital and Kunming Psychiatirc Hospital from January 2023 to May 2024 were selected for the study.The case group consisted of 61 adolescents who had self-injury or suicidal behaviors within 30 days,while the control group consisted of 35 adolescents who had no self-injury or suicidal behaviors within at least 30 days.Assessments were performed using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9(PHQ-9),Millon Screening Inventory for Borderline Personality Disorder(MSI-BPD),House-Tree-Person Drawing Test(HTP),and the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale(C-SSRS).Among these,72 subjects underwent skin pressure pain threshold testing using the Algometer HP-50,with 12 in the self-harm or suicide group within 2 days and 60 in the group beyond 2 days.Results(1)Analysis of gender and age between the two groups showed statistically significant differences(P<0.05),with a higher proportion of females and younger ages in the 30-day group;(2)The PHQ-9 score for the 30-day group was(19.59±5.99),with a score of(2.41±0.97)for item 9("Thoughts that it would be better to be dead or to hurt oneself in some way"),and an MSI-BPD score of(7.43±1.61).The scores for the group over 30 days were(10.89±7.99),(1.00±1.11)for item 9,and(5.40±3.13)for MSI-BPD.Independent samples t-test analysis showed significant differences(P<0.01);(3)In the 30-day group,five drawing characteristics from the 47 HTP characteristics(shift of center of gravity,hair not disheveled or no hair,no mountains,no sun,and no flowers or grass)were found to occur at a higher rate,with statistical significance(P<0.05);(4)In the binary logistic regression analysis of 96 patients with the 30-day suicide or self-injury behavior as the dependent variable,the absence of flowers and PHQ-9 question 9 score are the risk factors for adolescent depression patients to have self-injury or suicide behavior within 30 days(OR no flowers=7.934,OR score on PHQ-9 question 9=3.554).(5)Among the 72 subjects the skin pressure pain threshold for adolescents who exhibited self-injure or suicide behaviors within 2 days(8.83±4.27 N)was significantly higher than that for patients beyond 2 days(6.48±3.00 N),with statistical significance(t=-2.201,P<0.05).Additionally,the score for item 9 of the PHQ-9 was higher(2.50±0.67 vs 1.87±0.95),also showing statistical significance(t=-2.201,P<0.05).Conclusion The absence of flowers or grass in HTP painting,and stronger suicidal ideation or suicide attempt are risk factors for self-injury or suicidal behavior in adolescents with depression.Furthermore,those who self-injure or commit suicide within 2 days have a higher pain threshold compared to those beyond 2 days.

Objective To explore the feasibility of peritoneal dialysis catheter placement assisted by flexible ureteroscope.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of 54 cases of end-stage renal disease receiving peritoneal dialysis catheter placement from May 2019 to March 2023.The placement method was chosen by the patient.In the conventional group,23 cases were guided by a metal guide wire for insertion of the peritoneal dialysis catheter,while in the flexible ureteroscope group,31 cases were guided by flexible ureteroscope instead of guide wire for insertion of the peritoneal dialysis catheter.The success rate of catheterization,surgical time,use of postoperative analgesic,complications related to peritoneal dialysis catheter,and postoperative creatinine decrease were compared between the two groups.Results The catheter placement was successfully performed in both groups.The total incidence of complications related to peritoneal dialysis catheter in the flexible ureteroscope group was lower than that in the conventional group[6.5%(2/31)vs.30.4%(7/23),χ2 =3.878,P =0.049].Between the conventional group and the flexible ureteroscope group,there were no statistically significant differences in the surgical time,postoperative analgesic usage,and the decrease of creatinine at 2 weeks after surgery(P>0.05).The median postoperative follow-up period was10 months(range,3-24 months)in the two groups,and there were no complications such as peritoneal leakage,intestinal perforation,or intraperitoneal bleeding.Conclusion The placement of peritoneal dialysis catheter guided by the flexible ureteroscope instead of metal guide wire is a safe,visible,and accurate method,which can reduce complications related to peritoneal dialysis catheter,and detect and manage comorbidities in the abdominal cavity.

Objective To analyze the short-term clinical efficacy and prognosis of one-stop transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR)+percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the treatment of aortic valve disease with coronary heart disease. Methods The clinical data of patients with aortic valve disease complicated with coronary heart disease who underwent one-stop TAVR+PCI treatment at the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2018 to June 2023 were retrospective analyzed. The preoperative and postoperative clinical data were compared, and 1-month follow-up results were recorded. Results A total of 37 patients were enrolled, including 22 males and 15 females, with an average age of 69.14±6.47 years. Thirty-six patients recovered and were discharged after the surgery, and 1 (2.7%) patient died during the surgery. Self-expanding TAVR valves were implanted through the femoral artery in all patients. One coronary artery was opened by PCI in 35 (94.6%) patients, and two coronary arteries were opened by PCI in 2 (5.4%) patients. All PCI opened arteries had a stenosis>70%. During the postoperative hospitalization, the complications included pulmonary infection in 11 (30.6%) patients, severe pneumonia in 10 (27.8%) patients, liver function injury in 14 (38.9%) patients, renal function injury in 5 (13.9%) patients, cerebral infarction in 1 (2.8%) patient, atrial fibrillation in 1 (2.8%) patient, ventricular premature beats in 2 (5.6%) patients, atrioventricular block in 2 (5.6%) patients, and complete left bundle branch block in 5 (13.9%) patients. The median postoperative ventilation assistance time was 12.0 (0.0, 17.0) h, the ICU monitoring time was 1.0 (0.0, 2.0) d, and the postoperative hospitalization time was 5.0 (4.0, 7.0) d. There was a significant improvement in the New York Heart Association cardiac function grading after surgery (P<0.001). After surgery, there were 21 (58.3%) patients had minor perivalve leakage, 6 (16.7%) patients had minor to moderate perivalve leakage, and no moderate or above degree of perivalve leakage. After one month of postoperative follow-up, 36 patients showed significant improvement in heart function. There were no patients with recurrent acute coronary syndrome, re-PCI, or cardiovascular system disease related re-hospitalization. Conclusion The one-stop TAVR+PCI treatment for patients with aortic valve disease and coronary heart disease can obtain satisfactory short-term clinical efficacy, which is worth further trying and studying.

Objective:To analyze the association between the pre-pregnancy oral microbiota of women and fetal overgrowth, and the possible mechanisms involved.Methods:A nested case-control study design based on a pre-pregnancy cohort was used to select 51 mothers who delivered macrosomia and/or large-for-gestational-age (LGA) infants from the population recruited at the Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital of Jiading District in Shanghai from October 2016 to December 2021 as the case group. A control group was formed by selecting 204 mothers who delivered infants with normal birth weight and appropriate for gestational age during the same period, in a 1:4 ratio. The LGA subgroup consisted of 48 mothers who delivered LGA infants from the total population, and a corresponding control group of 192 was randomly selected from the remaining mothers who delivered non-LGA infants in a 1∶4 ratio for the LGA subgroup analysis. The 16S rRNA gene sequencing technique was utilized to detect pre-pregnancy saliva samples to compare the characteristics of the oral microbiota, differential microorganisms, and differential functional pathways between groups. Nonparametric Wilcoxon rank-sum tests, two independent samples t-tests, or Chi-square (or Fisher's exact) tests were used for statistical analysis. Factor analysis was conducted on the pre-pregnancy diet data of women, and the primary dietary pattern of each study subject was identified based on the highest score of the dietary pattern factors. For microbiota count data, α and β diversity indices were calculated using R and QIIME2 software, and the corresponding microbiota functional count data were acquired through PICRUSt2. Results:(1) General data: There was no significant difference in the time interval from pre-pregnancy sampling to pregnancy and from sampling to delivery between the two groups. In the case group, there were three cases of macrosomia and 48 cases (94.1%) of LGA. The corresponding control group for the LGA subgroup consisted of 192 cases. There were no significant differences in dietary patterns between the case group and the control group. (2) α diversity analysis: The species richness index of the case group was lower than that of the control group [(367.27±84.57) vs. (408.71±93.08), multivariate analysis, P=0.009], while no significant differences were found between the two groups in the Shannon and Simpson indices; the species richness index of the LGA subgroup was also lower than that of the corresponding control group [(371.04±83.92) vs. (408.04±94.21), multivariate analysis, P=0.033], with no significant differences in the Shannon and Simpson indices. (3) β diversity analysis: There was a statistically significant difference in the unweighted UniFrac distance of the oral microbiota between the case group and the control group ( R2=0.006, F=1.479, P=0.048). No significant differences were found in the β diversity indices of the oral microbiota between the LGA subgroup and the corresponding control group. (4) Differential microbiota analysis: There were 14 differential microbiotas from phylum to genus between the case group and the control group. At the genus level, members of the G1 genus of the Streptococcaceae were enriched in the case group, while the Lautropia, Dialister, Leptotrichia, and Rothia were enriched in the control group. In the LGA subgroup and its corresponding control group, there were 14 differential microbiota from phylum to genus; at the genus level, Leptotrichia, Rothia, G6 genus of the Saccharibacteria, and Selenomonas were enriched in the control group (all LDA value>2, and all P<0.05). (5) Differential functional analysis: In the case group, metabolic pathways such as nicotinate degradation [log 2 fold change ( FC)=3.510, q=0.005], de novo synthesis of pyrimidine nucleotides (log 2FC=0.078, q=0.005), and L-tyrosine degradation pathway (log 2FC=0.710, q=0.034) were enriched in the oral microbiota of women. In the LGA subgroup, compared to the corresponding control group, metabolic pathways related to nicotinate degradation were enriched in the oral microbiota (log 2FC=3.660, q=0.012). Conclusions:There are differences in the structure of the pre-pregnancy oral microbiota of mothers with overgrown fetuses compared to those with normally grown fetuses, and mothers of normally grown fetuses show higher diversity in their pre-pregnancy oral microbiota. The enrichment of certain pathogenic bacteria and the reduction of symbiotic bacteria in the pre-pregnancy oral microbiota are associated with fetal overgrowth, and this association may be mediated by functional pathways such as nicotinate degradation.
