Objective To explore the effect of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt(TIPS)on gut microbiota and blood ammonia level in patients with decompensated cirrhosis,and to analyze the correlation between the gut microbiota and blood ammonia level.Methods From July 2021 to December 2023,the patients with decompensated cirrhosis and portal hypertension complicated by esophagogastric variceal bleeding and/or refractory ascites,who received TIPS at Zhuhai Hospital of Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine,were collected.The blood and stool samples were collected before and after TIPS.The changes in blood routine,prothrombin time,liver function,and blood ammonia level were determined.The change of gut microbiota was detected using 16S rRNA high-throughput sequencing,and Spearman correlation analysis was used to assess the correlation between the gut microbiota and blood ammonia level.Results In 20 patients,the post-TIPS one-month levels of AST,TBil,DBiL,PT,and blood ammonia were higher than their pre-TIPS values(P＜0.05),and the albumin(Alb)level was lower than the pre-TIPS value(P＜0.05).The post-TIPS 3-month levels of TBil,DBil,PT,and blood ammonia were higher than their pre-TIPS values(P＜0.05).One month after TIPS,the beta diversity of the gut microbiota became significantly different from the pre-TIPS pattern(P＜0.05).After TIPS,the harmful bacteria such as Veillonella,Streptococcus and Haemophilus were significantly reduced,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The correlation analysis of gut microbiota and blood ammonia level showed that in T0 group Colidextribacter was positively correlated with blood ammonia level,while Roxobella was negatively correlated with blood ammonia level;and in T1 group,Colidextribacter and Streptococcus were positively correlated with blood ammonia level,while Coprococcus,Bifidobacterium and Parasutterella were negatively correlated with blood ammonia level,and the differences were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).Conclusion In patients with decompensated cirrhosis after receiving TIPS,significant changes in the pattern of gut microbiota occur.Certain correlations exist between the changes of some microbiota and blood ammonia levels.Regulating the intestinal microecology may contribute to reducing blood ammonia level after TIPS.

Objective To investigate the effectiveness and safety of drug-eluting beads bronchial arterial chemoembolization(DEB-BACE)versus BACE for the treatment of stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ lung squamous cell carcinoma.Methods A total of 104 patients with stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ lung squamous cell carcinoma,who were admitted to the Lishui Municipal Central Hospital of China between January 2013 and August 2021,were enrolled in this study.According to the therapeutic scheme,the patients were divided into DEB-BACE group(n=41)and BACE group(n=63).For patients of DEB-BACE group,Cisplatin at 75 mg/m2 dose and gemcitabine at 1 000 mg/m2 dose(400 mg was used as loaded-drug dose)were injected through a microcatheter,which was followed by embolization with CalliSpheres microspheres loaded with 400 mg of gemcitabine.For patients of BACE group,Cisplatin at 75 mg/m2 and gemcitabatin at 1 000 mg/m2 were injected through a microcatheter,which was followed by arterial embolization with blank microspheres.Three weeks after DEB-BACE or BACE,the patients of both groups were started on intravenous chemotherapy.The primary study endpoint was overall survival(OS).The secondary study endpoints included progression-free survival(PFS),objective response rate(ORR),disease control rate(DCR),adverse reactions,and the remission rate of dyspnea.Results Of the 104 patients,63 received BACE sequential intravenous chemotherapy and 41 received DEB-BACE sequential intravenous chemotherapy.The median OS in DEB-BACE group was 23.0 moths,which was obviously longer than 12.0 months in BACE group(P=0.009).Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that DEB-BACE treatment was an independent risk factor for OS(HR=0.59,95％ CI:0.38-0.91,Log-rank test P=0.018).Meanwhile,the remission rate of dyspnea in DEB-BACE group was significantly higher than that in BACE group(57.1％ vs 30.6％,P＜0.043).Conclusion Compared with BACE sequential intravenous chemotherapy,DEB-BACE sequential intravenous chemotherapy can significantly prolong the survival time of patients with stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ lung squamous cell carcinoma and significantly improve the symptoms of dyspnea,which has important applications in the treatment of patients with advanced lung squamous cell carcinoma.

Objective To assess the clinical value of a nomogram model constructed by the authors in predicting recurrent laryngeal nerve(RLN)injury after thermal ablation for secondary hyperparathyroidism(SHPT).Methods The clinical data of a total of 102 patients with end-stage renal disease SHPT,who received thermal ablation at the Yulin Municipal First People's Hospital of China from May 2019 to January 2024,were retrospectively analyzed.According to whether RLN injury occurred or not after thermal ablation,the patients were divided into RLN injury group(n=24)and non-RLN injury group(n=78).The clinical data were compared between the two groups.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent risk factors for RLN injury.R language was used to construct a visualization nomogram according to the variables of the logistic regression model.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the discrimination of the nomogram model.Hosmer-Lemeshow test and calibration curve were used to evaluate the goodness of fit and the calibration of the nomogram model.Results Superior gland ablation(OR=8.784,95％ CI:2.056-37.521,P=0.003),total parathyroid gland volume(OR=1.684,95％CI:1.167-2.430,P=0.005),thermal ablation energy(OR=1.132,95％ CI:1.016-1.261,P=0.025)were the independent risk factors for RLN injury after thermal ablation(all P＜0.05).Based on the above 3 risk factors,a nomogram model used for predicting the risk of RLN injury was established.The area under ROC curve(AUC)was 0.868,and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed that the degree of fit was good(P=0.769).The calibration curve indicated that the calibration curve basically coincided with the ideal curve.Conclusion Superior gland ablation,total parathyroid gland volume,and thermal ablation energy are the independent risk factors for RLN injury after thermal ablation in patients with end-stage renal disease SHPT.The nomogram model constructed based on the above mentioned three factors can effectively predict RLN injury.

Objective To investigate the effect of different strand lengths of 125I seeds with the same activity on the dose of different reference points around the seeds.Methods The scanned images were transferred to the three-dimensional treatment planning system(3D-TPS)according to DICOM format.The target volume was delineated at 5 mm and 10 mm above and below the center of the phantom,and a 0.8 mCi seeds strand was simulated.The 1-20 seeds were arranged with an equal spacing of 5 mm(5 mm-100 mm).The 5 mm points above and below the center of the seeds strand were defined as point A and point A',and the 10 mm points above and below the center were defined as point B and point B'.5 mm above and below the edge of the seeds strand on the left side were defined as AL points and AL'points,and 5 mm above and below the edge of the seeds strand on the right side were defined as AR points and AR'points.Similarly,points 10 mm above the above mentioned positions were defined as BL points,BL'points,BR points,BR'points.The average dose symmetry points were measured at AL,AL',AR,and 5 mm,10 mm,15 mm and 20 mm inside AR' of the 45 mm-100 mm seeds strand.The dose at the center was compared with the dose at the end points.The dose at the center point A was compared with the average dose at the symmetry points of 5 mm,10 mm,15 mm and 20 mm inside of the end points AL,AL',AR and AR',and the dose at each point was curve fitting.The correlation between each point and seeds strands of different lengths was analyzed.Results There was a positive correlation between the dose and the length of each point.There was no statistically significant difference between the center point and the end point.There was a statistically significant difference in dosage at points 5 mm and 10 mm inside from point A,while there was no statistically significant difference in dosage at points 15 mm and 20 mm inside from point A.The dose of A,A',B and B' point increased steadily with the increase of seed chain length,and the fitting curves were obtained respectively:y=e(-0.620/x+5.28)(R2=0.992),y=e(-0.640/x+5.34)(R2=0.987),y=e(-0.82/x+4.80)(R2=0.984),y=e(-0.82/x+4.83)(R2=0.9g1).Conclusion The doses at points A,A',B,and B'are positively correlated with seeds strand length and have a high degree of stability.Point A can be used as a reference point for the target area dose of the seeds strand,and point B can be used as a reference point for the dose to critical organs.The dose at other positions is more variable and thus has a certain degree of uncertainty as a reference point for the seeds strand dose.

Objective To discuss the application of using transulnar approach(TUA),which is used as a complementary approach,after failure of transradial approach(TRA)in performing neurointerventional surgery,and to evaluate its clinical safety and feasibility.Methods A total of 189 consecutive patients,who were admitted to the Department of Neurointerventional Surgery,Affiliated Hospital of Binzhou Medical University of China from January to August of 2023 to receive treatment,were retrospectively collected.Of the 189 patients receiving neurointerventional surgery using TRA,23 adopted TUA puncture after failure of TRA puncture.The clinical data and the surgical materials were retrospectively collected.The diameter and depth of the radial artery and ulnar artery were measured by Doppler ultrasound before the operation.A 6 F catheter sheath was used to establish intraoperative manipulation access.After treatment,Doppler ultrasonography was used to assess the occurrence of arterial puncture-related complications and the patency of artery.The technical success rate and the puncture-related complications of TUA in neurointerventional surgery were calculated and analyzed.Results All the 23 patients underwent neurointerventional surgery.The preoperative mean ulnar artery diameter of the forearm and the depth of the ulnar radial artery measured by Doppler ultrasound were(2.1±0.3)mm and(5.6±1.0)mm respectively.The success rate of using TUA after failure of TRA for neurointerventional surgery was 91.3％(21/23)and no additional re-disinfection was required during the same procedure.In 2 patients,transfemoral artery approach(TFA)was used after failure of TUA.The causes of TUA failure included failure of guide wire insertion due to repeated puncturing(n=1)and failure of catheterization due to severe pain(n=1).Postoperative forearm angiography with manual-push injection method demonstrated that ulnar artery spasm occurred in S patients(34.8％).Postoperative re-examination of Doppler ultrasonography showed that no diminished pulse of the ulnar artery or hand ischemia was observed.One patient developed fat liquefaction at the puncture site,two patients developed hematoma around the puncture point,and one patient experienced transitory numbness around the puncture point.Thirty days after treatment,the follow-up check with Doppler ultrasonography showed that no ulnar artery occlusion was observed.Conclusion During the performance of neurointerventional surgery,the use of TUA after failure of TRA,which is used as a complementary approach,is clinically safe and feasible.However,because TUA carries several certain technical difficulties such as puncturing,catheterization,deeper position and smaller diameter of ulnar artery,diffuse arterial pulsation,etc.the operators need to go through a long learning curve before his or her puncturing success rate of ulnar artery can be surely improved.

Objective To explore the safety and efficacy of semiconductor laser combined with sclerotherapy in the treatment of venous malformations(VM)in child patients.Methods The clinical data of 68 child patients with VM,who were admitted to the Affiliated Children's Hospital of Zhengzhou University of China from April 2023 to April 2024,were retrospectively analyzed.The child patients were divided into semiconductor laser combined with sclerotherapy group(laser+sclerotherapy group)and simple sclerotherapy group(sclerotherapy group),with 34 child patients in each group.The reduction rate of lesion size and the incidence of complications were compared between the two groups.Results The total effective rate and significant effective rate in the laser+sclerotherapy group were 100％ and 79.41％(27/34)respectively,which were higher than 82.35％(28/34)and 29.41％(10/34)respectively in the sclerotherapy group.The incidences of blister and pigmentation complications in the laser+sclerotherapy group were 11.76％(4/34)and 14.71％(5/34)respectively,which were lower than 41.18％(14/34)and 38.24％(13/34)respectively in the sclerotherapy group,and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).Conclusion In treating child patients with VM,the combination use of semiconductor laser and sclerotherapy has higher clinical safety and effectiveness.

Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy(HAIC)combined with anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody(anti-PD-1 mAb)in treating advanced hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)with microvascular invasion(MVI).Methods The clinical data of 156 patients with advanced HCC,who received HAIC-mFOLFOX6 combined with anti-PD-1 mAb(HAIC-PD-1 group,n=61)or received simple HAIC-mFOLFOX6(simple HAIC group,n=95)at the Union Shenzhen Hospital,Huazhong University of Science and Technology of China From January 2018 to December 2021,were retrospectively collected.After propensity score matching(PSM)for 156 patients,the overall cohort and the matched cohort(PSM cohort)were obtained.The differences in overall survival(OS)and progression-free survival(PFS)were compared between the two cohorts.Based on the modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors(mRECIST)the tumor response to treatment was evaluated.The objective response rate(ORR)and disease control rate(DCR)were compared between the overall cohort and the PSM cohort.Univariate analysis and multivariate analysis were used to identify the independent predictive factors affecting OS and PFS.Results In both the overall cohort and the PSM cohort,the OS and PFS in the HAIC-PD-1 group were better than those in the simple HAIC group(both P＜0.01),while no statistically significant differences in ORR and DCR existed between the HAIC-PD-1 group and the simple HAIC group(both P＞0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that ALBI grade and therapeutic method were the independent predictive factors for OS,while extrahepatic metastases and therapeutic method were the independent predictive factors for PFS.Conclusion In treating patients with advanced HCC complicated by MVI,H AIC-mFOLFOX6 combined with anti-PD-1 mAb carries more significant survival benefits when compared with simple HAIC-mFOLFOX6.In aspect of controlling the tumor progression,HAIC-mFOLFOX6 combined with anti-PD-1 mAb and simple HAIC-mFOLFOX6 have similar efficacy.

Objective To explore the factors affecting the prognosis of patients with symptomatic severe intracranial artery stenosis after interventional therapy,and to construct a nomogram prediction model accordingly.Methods The clinical data of 121 patients with symptomatic severe intracranial artery stenosis,who received interventional treatment at the First People's Hospital of Zhengzhou from June 1,2021 to October 31,2024,were retrospectively analyzed.The general data,characteristics of vascular lesions,treatment-related factors and prognosis of patients were collected.According to the modified Rankin scale(mRS)score,the patients were divided into good prognosis group(mRS score ≤2 points)and poor prognosis group(mRS score＞2 points).The clinical data were compared between the two groups.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify and determine independent factors affecting patient's outcomes,to construct a nomogram prediction model and to validate this model.Results Among the 121 patients,31(25.61％)had poor prognosis and 90(74.38％)had good prognosis.The postoperative 3-month mRS score was lower than preoperative mRS score value(P＞0.05).There were significant differences in hypertension history,stenosis site,stenosis degree,collateral circulation state,interventional therapeutic mode,cholesterol level,platelet count,lesion length and preoperative NIHSS score(P＜0.05)between the poor prognosis group and the good prognosis group.Multivariate analysis showed that hypertension history,stenosis degree,collateral circulation status,cholesterol level,platelet count,lesion's length and preoperative NIHSS score were the independent influencing factors for the prognosis of patients with symptomatic severe intracranial artery stenosis.The predicted AUC of the nomogram model was 0.931(95％ CI=0.873-0.989),and the calibration curve showed that the predicted value was in good agreement with the actual value.Conclusion Hypertension history,stenosis degree,collateral circulation status,cholesterol level,platelet count,lesion length and preoperative NIHSS score are the important influencing factors for the prognosis of patients with symptomatic severe intracranial artery stenosis.The nomogram prediction model constructed in this study shows a high accuracy in predicting the prognosis of patients,and it can provide important reference for clinical decision-making.

Objective To investigate the DSA imaging characteristics and efficacy of interventional treatment for post-pancreaticoduodenectomy hemorrhage(PPH),and to analyze the factors influencing recurrent bleeding following successful interventional hemostasis.Methods Clinical data of patients who underwent interventional treatment for PPH between January 2013 and December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.All patients underwent DSA examination,and interventional therapy was the primary treatment option for patients with positive findings.Statistical analysis was performed on DSA angiography manifestations,bleeding sites,success rate of interventional treatment and hemostasis effectiveness.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the independent risk factors for rebleeding after interventional treatment for PPH.Results A total of 139 patients with PPH were included in this study.All 139 patients underwent DSA examination,with a positive rate of 82.01％(114/139)in the first examination.Major angiographic manifestations included contrast agent extravasation,pseudoaneurysm,and disrupted vascular architecture;bleeding sites included gastroduodenal artery in 45 cases(39.47％),hepatic artery in 22 cases(19.30％),and superior mesenteric artery in 32 cases(28.07％).107 patients underwent interventional treatment(81 embolization and 26 stenting),with a success rate of 91.59％(98/107).The independent risk factors for recurrent bleeding after interventional treatment in patients with PPH included preoperative bleeding(P＜0.001)and pancreatic fistula(P=0.041).Conclusion Interventional procedures for PPH can be efficient in diagnosis and treatment,with a high success rate and effective hemostasis.However,it should be noted that some patients remain at risk of recurrent bleeding after successful interventional hemostasis.
