Objective To compare and analyze the early- to mid-term outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) combined with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) versus surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) combined with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) for the treatment of significant aortic stenosis (AS) and coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods The data of patients with significant AS and CAD who underwent surgical treatment at Central China Fuwai Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2018 to July 2023 were collected. These patients were divided into a TAVR+PCI group and a SAVR+CABG group according to the operation method. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to select patients with close clinical baseline characteristics, and the early- to mid-term outcomes of the two groups were compared. Results A total of 272 patients were enrolled, including 208 males and 64 females, with a mean age of (64.16±8.24) years. There were 47 patients in the TAVR+PCI group and 225 patients in the SAVR+CABG group. After 1 : 1 PSM, 32 pairs were selected. There was no statistical difference in baseline data between the two groups (P>0.05). Compared with the SAVR+CABG group, the TAVR+PCI group had significantly shorter operative time, mechanical ventilation time, ICU stay, postoperative hospital stay, and less intraoperative bleeding, and significantly lower postoperative transfusion and complete revascularization rates (P<0.05). The differences in the rates of postoperative in-hospital death, myocardial infarction, stroke, or other complications between the two groups were not statistically significant (P>0.05), and the differences in the rates of moderate-to-severe perivalvular leakage, death, or readmission in the mid-term follow-up were not statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusion In patients with significant AS and CAD, the early- and mid-term rates of death and complications are similar between those treated with TAVR+PCI and SAVR+CABG, and TAVR+PCI is a safe alternative to SAVR+CABG.

Objective:To determine the effects of early enteral nutrition (EEN) on the short-term prognosis of patients receiving veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO).Methods:61 patients admitted to the Coronary Care Unit (CCU) of Henan Provincial Peoples' Hospital from February 2022 to March 2023 to receive VA-ECMO treatment were selected as the study objects according a retrospective survey. The patients were divided into an achievement group ( n=34) and a non-achievement group ( n=27) based on whether the feeding amount reached 70% or over of the target calories (25kcal/kg.d) on the 7th day of ECMO treatment. The general characteristics, disease information, complications, and prognosis between the two groups after ICU admission were recorded and compared. A multivariable Cox proportional hazards model was used to evaluate the impact of various factors on clinical outcomes. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to draw survival curves for the two groups, and the predictive value of the ratio of actual EN intake to target energy was calculated by plotting the ROC curve. Results:A total of 61 patients were included, with an overall in-hospital mortality rate of 50.82% (31/61), with 32.35% (11/34) in the achievement group, and 70.37% (19/27) in the non-achievement group. Cox regression analysis revealed that the occurrence of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HR=0.341, 95% CI:0.119-0.975), ECOM weaning failure ( HR=0.269, 95% CI:0.111-0.651), and achieving EN targets on the 7th day of VA-ECMO treatment ( HR=10.891, 95% CI:1.178-100.718) were independent factors for patient mortality during hospitalization. The ROC curve for the percentage of EN achievement on the 7th day of VA-ECMO treatment and in-hospital mortality showed an area under the curve of 0.755, with a cutoff value of 0.73. Conclusion:The presence of ischemic hypoxic encephalopathy, ECOM weaning failure, and whether achieving EN targets or not is closely related to the prognosis of VA-ECMO patients. Patients who achieving EN targets of over 73% had the lowest in-hospital mortality rate. Therefore, more attention should be paid to the energy intake of VA-ECMO patients to reduce their risk of mortality.

Objective:To summarize the strategy and method for the treatment of critically ill patients with self-made extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) system.Methods:A observative study was conducted. Fifty-six patients with ECMO assisted support in Fuwai Central China Cardiovascular Disease Hospital from December 2020 to December 2021 were enrolled. According to the clinical situation of the patients and the wishes of the family, conventional ECMO package (conventional group) or self-made ECMO package (self-made group) was chosen. In the conventional group, the disposable ECMO package was used to install the machine, pre charge and exhaust the air. In the self-made group, the disposable consumables commonly used in extracorporeal circulation during cardiac surgery (including centrifugal pump heads, membrane oxygenation, tubes, connectors, etc.) were used to create a self-made ECMO system. Based on the patient's situation, personalized tube model selection and length control were carried out. The preparation time, auxiliary time, auxiliary method, total pre charge volume, free hemoglobin (FHb) levels after 2 hours of ECMO operation and operating costs, as well as changes in hemodynamics, arterial blood gas analysis, and blood indicators within 48 hours after ECMO placement in the two groups were recorded. The occurrence of adverse events related to the ECMO system during ECMO adjuvant therapy in two groups was simultaneously observed.Results:Fifty-six patients were enrolled finally, with 28 cases in the conventional group and 28 cases in the self-made group, and all successfully completed the operation of ECMO. There was no statistically significant difference in ECMO system preparation time, auxiliary time, auxiliary method, and FHb levels after 2 hours of ECMO operation between the conventional group and the self-made group [preparation time (minutes): 13±4 vs. 15±5, auxiliary time (hours): 287±34 vs. 276±42, veno-arterial ECMO (cases): 22 vs. 24, veno-venous ECMO (cases): 6 vs. 4, FHb after 2 hours of ECMO operation (mg/L): 226±67 vs. 253±78, all P > 0.05]. However, the total pre charge volume and operating costs in the self-made group were significantly lower than those in the conventional group [total pre charge volume (mL): 420±25 vs. 650±10, operating costs (ten thousand yuan): 3.8±0.4 vs. 6.7±0.3, both P < 0.01]. The hemodynamics, arterial blood gas analysis, and blood indicators of patients in the two groups were relatively stable within 48 hours after ECMO operation, and most of the indicators between the two groups showed no statistically significant differences. The hemoglobin (Hb) levels at 12, 24, and 48 hours after the machine transfer in the self-made group were significantly higher than those in the conventional group (g/L: 128.5±23.7 vs. 117.5±24.3 at 12 hours, 121.3±31.3 vs. 109.6±33.2 at 24 hours, 118.5±20.1 vs. 105.2±25.7 at 48 hours, all P < 0.05). Both groups of patients did not experience any adverse event related to the ECMO system, such as membrane pulmonary infiltration, joint detachment, and massive hemolysis, during the ECMO assisted treatment process. Conclusion:When implementing ECMO for critically ill patients in clinical practice, a self-made ECMO system with disposable consumables commonly used in extracorporeal circulation during cardiac surgery can be used for cardiopulmonary function assistance support, thereby saving patients medical costs and alleviating their dependence on disposable ECMO package in clinical practice.

Objective:To compare the outcomes between the patients of peroneal tendon dislocation treated by either total endoscopic surgery with preferential incision of the tendon sheath or traditional open surgery.Methods:This is a retrospective cohort study. The clinical data of 45 patients with peroneal tendon dislocation were operated at the Department of Sports Medicine and Joint Surgery, Nanjing First Hospital from July 2016 to June 2020. There were 26 males and 19 females,aged (31.2±9.3) years (range: 17 to 45 years). Among them,23 patients underwent open peroneal tendon groove deepening followed by tendon sheath repair(traditional open group), and the other 22 patients underwent similar operations but all-endoscopically with preferential incision of peroneal tendon sheath(total endoscopic group). The perioperative data of patients were collected, and pain visual analogue score (VAS) was used to evaluate the pain changes before and after surgery and during the follow-up period, and the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society ankle hindfoot scale (AOFAS-AH), range of motion (ROM), the MOS item short form health survey (SF)-36, and the homemade questionnaire of patient satisfaction were used to evaluate the patients′ outcomes after the operation, and CT scan was carried out to observe the deepening of the fibular groove and MRI to observe the status of the peroneal tendon and sheath during the follow-up. Independent sample t test, Wilcoxon rank sum test were used for comparison of quantitative data between groups. Chi-square test,Mann-whitney U or Fisher exact test was used for comparison of classified data, respectively;repeated measure ANOVA and paired sample t test were used for comparison of quantitative data before and after surgery in groups. Results:There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups of patients in terms of gender, age, disease duration, side of injury, and injury typing (all P>0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of operation time ((47.9±5.4)minutes vs. (47.2±6.3)minutes; t=0.402, P=0.690), but the incision length ((2.17±0.35)cm vs.(5.97±0.42)cm; t=32.892, P<0.01) and hospitalization time ((4.0±1.7)days vs. (7.6±3.6)days; t=4.249, P<0.01) were significantly shorter in the total endoscopic group than those in the traditional open group. All patients were followed up for more than 12 months, and the follow-up time was (19.2±3.9) months (range: 12 to 24 months). The total endoscopic group showed a significant increase in VAS, AOFAS-AH, SF-36 score and patient satisfaction rate at 3 months postoperatively and the last follow-up (all P<0.05). Three months after surgery, the ROM in the total endoscope group was higher than that in the traditional group ((62.14±1.46) ° vs. (53.13±1.52) °; t=20.315, P<0.01), and there was no significant difference between the two groups at the last follow-up ((63.18±1.10) ° vs. (63.48±2.43) °; t=0.531, P=0.599). The imaging examination results showed that the situation of fibular groove deepening in the total endoscopic group was better than that in the traditional open group. Conclusion:Total endoscopic surgery with preferential incision of the tendon sheath has the advantages of minimally invasivenessas compared with traditional open surgery with faster recovery and better outcome.
