Objective:To investigate the impact of early invasive arterial blood pressure (IBP) monitoring on survival and neurological outcomes in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients undergoing extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR).Methods:This retrospective cohort study analyzed 44 OHCA patients receiving ECPR between January 2021 and January 2023. Patients were divided into: Early intervention group : IBP established within 3 min of ECMO initiation; Late intervention group : IBP established after ICU admission. Baseline characteristics, ECMO parameters, and clinical outcomes were compared. Multivariable logistic regression (adjusted for age, initial rhythm, etc.) and Spearman's correlation were used.Results:This study included a total of 44 patients treated with OHCA and ECPR, divided into an early intervention group of 23 cases and a late intervention group of 21 cases. The early intervention group showed significantly higher: Survival to discharge (43.5% vs. 9.5%, P<0.05), Good neurological recovery (CPC 1-2: 34.8% vs. 9.5%, P<0.05).Early intervention independently predicted survival (adjusted OR=18.84, 95% CI:1.97-179.98, P=0.01). Stratified analysis by pH (cutoff 7.0) demonstrated consistent benefits in both pH>7.0 ( aOR=0.392, 95% CI:0.106-0.678) and pH≤7.0 subgroups ( aOR=0.385, 95% CI: 0.075-0.695; interaction P=0.183). Early IBP positively correlated with CPC scores ( ρ=0.40, P=0.007). Conclusions:Early IBP monitoring significantly improves survival and neurological outcomes in OHCA-ECPR patients, supporting its integration into standardized protocols.

Strategic management of tributary veins including concomitant versus staged intervention during endovenous thermal ablation for truncal varicose veins remains debated. Concomitant procedures mainly involves thermal ablation with ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy or phlebectomy. Staged strategies include initial truncal ablation followed by deliberated tributary management. Major venous disease guidelines exhibit substantial divergence,Japanese Society of Phlebology guidelines in 2019 contraindicate concomitant procedures, European Society for Vascular Surgery 2022 Clinical Practice Guidelines and Chinese frameworks endorse individualized decision-making,while American Vein and Lymphatic Society guidelines in 2023 prioritize concomitant procedures. Systematic literature review reveals that concomitant procedures do not uniformly translate into reduced reintervention rates or improved early Venous Clinical Severity Scores, yet consistently incur elevated complication risks and postoperative pain. Conversely, staged strategies offer superior tolerability with minimized complications. Hemodynamic principles indicate that most competent tributaries undergo partial or complete regression within 6 weeks to 6 months post-ablation and hemodynamic studies demonstrate that staged approaches preserve the drainage function of tributaries, preventing edema in their respective drainage territories and reducing tributary intervention rates. Future multicenter randomized controlled trials are imperative to delineate comparative outcomes between concomitant and staged management of truncal and tributary veins.

Objective:To investigate the effect of Zhuyu Tongluo Tang combined with manual release on isokinetic muscle strength and serum TGF-β1 and IGF-1 levels in patients with joint stiffness after ankle fracture surgery.Methods:A prospective study was conducted on 80 patients with ankle fractures who experienced joint stiffness during the recovery period after surgery at Nanchang Hongdu Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital from March 2021 to March 2024.The patients were randomly divided into control group(n=40)and observation group(n=40)using a random number table method.Both groups of patients received routine intervention,followed by manual release therapy in control group;observation group received treatment in combination with Zhuyu Tongluo Tang on the basis of control group,with a treatment course of 4 weeks.Compared treatment outcomes,isokinetic muscle strength test indicators,American Orthopaedic of Foot and Ankle Society(AOFAS),ankle activity score(AAS),visual analog scale(VAS),traditional Chinese medicine syndrome score,and changes in dorsiflexion angle from two groups of patients before and after 4 weeks of treatment,and measured serum levels of TGF-β1 and insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1).Results:After treatment,effective rate of control group was 75.00%,while effective rate of observation group was 92.50%(P<0.05);PT,PT/BW and TW of observation group and control group were significantly increased,and PT,PT/BW and TW of observation group were significantly higher than those of control group(all P<0.05);AOFAS and AAS scores of observation group and control group were significantly increased,while VAS score was significantly decreased.AOFAS and AAS scores of observation group were significantly higher than those of control group,while VAS score was significantly lower than those of control group(both P<0.05);scores and total scores of various traditional Chinese medicine symptoms in observation group and control group were significantly reduced,and observation group was significantly lower than that in control group(both P<0.05);dorsiflexion angle of the foot in both observation group and control group were significantly increased,and the increase in observation group was greater than that in control group(both P<0.05);levels of TGF-β1 and IGF-1 in both obser-vation group and control group were significantly increased,and levels of TGF-β1 and IGF-1 in observation group were significantly higher than those in control group(both P<0.05).Conclusion:Combination of Zhuyu Tongluo Tang and manual release can improve the symptoms of joint stiffness and traditional Chinese medicine syndromes during the recovery period of ankle fractures,increase the functional score and isokinetic muscle strength index of the ankle joint,raise the levels of TGF-β1 and IGF-1,and improve the patient's dorsiflexion angle.This treatment regimen has good clinical efficacy.

The incidence rate of abdominal trauma is increasing year by year in pediatric trauma， and traumatic pancreatic injury should be taken seriously by clinicians. The pancreas is located behind the peritoneum， and it is difficult to make an early diagnosis of pancreatic injury， especially in children with grade ‍Ⅰ‍/Ⅱ injury. Through a literature review， this article analyzes the application value of endocrine indices and abdominal ultrasound in the early diagnosis of pediatric pancreatic injury， so as to improve the rate of early diagnosis and avoid the onset of related complications. Changes of the endocrine indices such as serum insulin and C Peptide have certain advantages in diagnosing and evaluating the degree of pediatric pancreatic injury and can thus be used as early warning indices for pediatric pancreatic injury. Ultrasound elastography provides a new method for the diagnosis and differentiation of pancreatic injury； contrast-enhanced ultrasound， which has no radioactive damage， has relatively high specificity and sensitivity in identifying pediatric pancreatic injury， and therefore， it is expected to become an alternative to CT examination.

As a normal physiological substance,D-galactose can induce a process similar to natural brain aging in vivo and in vitro when administered excessively,and thus it is widely used to induce brain aging models in China and abroad.The model of brain failure induced by D-galactose has the advantages of a short modeling time,low cost,and significant effect.However,the induction mechanisms are complex and diverse,and the relationships between the mechanisms are unclear,which limit the practical applications of the model.This article reviews the in vivo metabolism of D-galactose and the various mechanisms involved in the induction of brain aging,as well as the links between the mechanisms,to provide a reference for the application and development of this model and the in-depth study of brain aging.

Objective:To compare the application effect of domestic and imported intravenous radiofrequency closure system in the treatment of primary varicose veins of lower extremities.Methods:This single-center prospective, non-inferiority randomized controlled trial was performed in the Department of Vascular Surgery, the Fourth Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine from January 2021 to January 2022. Patients with primary varicose veins of lower extremities who met the ataxation criteria were randomly assigned to the experimental group(domestic novel venous radiofrequency closure system) or the control group(imported venous radiofrequency closure system) in a ratio of 1∶1. The two groups of subjects were compared in terms of target vein closure rate, technical success rate, system operation performance, incidence of adverse events and incidence of serious adverse events(SAE) within 6 months after surgery. Quantitative data were compared by Mann-Whitney U test, and categorical data were compared by χ2 test and non-inferiority test. Results:A total of 80 subjects were included in the trial (41 in the experimental group and 39 in the control group), including 27 males and 53 females, aged ( M(IQR)) 55(23) years (range:40 to 78 years). There were 48 cases of left lower limb and 32 cases of right lower limb. The technical success rate and system control performance between the groups were 100%.The incidence of adverse events (58.5% (24/41) vs. 61.5% (24/39), χ2=0.075, P=0.784), and the incidence of SAE (7.3% (3/41) vs. 5.1% (2/39), χ2=0.163, P=0.686) within 6 months after surgery in experimental group and control group had no statistical significance. There was one device-related adverse event in each of the two groups. In the experimental group, one patient developed endovenous heat-induced thrombosis after surgery and recovered after taking rivaroxaban tablets. One patient in the control group had pain in the upper right thigh for more than 1 day after operation, which was cured after using analgesic cream. No device-related SAE occurred. The venous closure rate of the experimental group was 100% (38/38) at 6 months after surgery, and that of the control group was 97.4% (37/38). The difference between the two groups was 2.63% (95% CI:-3.19 to 8.45, Z=4.865, P<0.01), and the 95% CI lower limit of the difference in target venous closure rate between two groups was greater than the non-inferiority threshold of -10.00%. Conclusion:The early application effect of the new domestic intravenous radiofrequency closure system in patients with primary varicose veins of lower extremities is in line with expectations, it is not inferior to the imported system.

OBJECTIVE：To systematically evaluate the pharmacoeconomic research of the second-generation direct-acting antiviral agents （DAAs）in the treatment of hepatitis C ，and to provide methodological suggestions for economic research ，and to provide decision-making reference for the adjustment of medical insurance catalogues and market access. METHODS ：Retrieved from PubMed ，EMbase，the Cochrane library ，CNKI，Wanfang database and VIP ，the pharmacoeconomic researches of the second-generation DAAs for hepatitis C were collected during Jan. 2015-Jan. 2020. The quality of included studies were evaluated with the checklist about Consolidated Health Economics Evaluation Reporting Standards （CHEERS），and the data were extracted and analyzed quantitatively. RESULTS ：A total of 14 studies were included ，and the standard coincidence rate ranged from 79.2％ to 95.8％；the overall quality was relatively high. Thirteen （92.9％）studies had compared the economics of different treatment schemes from the perspective of the payer by using the Markov model and the lifetime study time limit. Compared with the second-generation DAAs treatment schemes based on sofosbuvir ，all the research results showed that Ombitasvir combined with Dasabuvir（3D），EBR/GZR and GLE/PIB were more economical in the target countries ；single factor sensitivity analysis showed that the research results were more sensitive to the three parameters of drug price ，drug SVR rate and health status utility value. CONCLUSIONS：Among the second-generation DAAs for hepatitis C ，the three regimens of 3D，EBR/GZR and GLE/PIB are more economical. It is recommended that future research on the economics of medicines for hepatitis C adopted dynamic model and the research perspective of the whole society to carry out direct high-quality economic research on a variety of DAAs ；at the same time，considered the effects of drug price ，drug SVR rate and health status utility value on the robustness of basic analysis results in sensitivity analysis in order to increase the credibility of the research results.
