Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of the median and paramedian approaches in ultrasound-guided combined spinal-epidural anesthesia for patients with hemorrhoidectomy and to evaluate the differences between the two techniques.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on 90 AIDS patients who underwent hemorrhoidectomy under combined spinal-epidural anesthesia from February 2024 to March 2025.The patients were categorized into two groups based on the ultrasound-guided puncture approach:a midline approach group and a paramedian approach group.In the midline approach group,anatomical landmarks such as the spinous process space,facet joint,and transverse process were identified in the transverse axial plane for accurate localiza-tion.The puncture site was determined as the midpoint of the interspinous space along the spinal midline,and an out-of-plane puncture technique was utilized.In the paramedian approach group,positioning was performed by scanning the lamina in the sagittal oblique plane.The dorsal complex structure space with the clearest visibility was centered under the probe,and an in-plane puncture technique was applied,with the needle advanced from the caudal to the cephalad direction to complete the combined spinal-epidural procedure.Data regarding puncture performance,complications,and anesthetic efficacy were systematically recorded and assessed for both groups.Results Intergroup analysis demonstrated that the paramedian approach group exhibited significantly fewer total puncture attempts and a higher success rate on the first attempt(P<0.05).No significant differences were observed between the two groups regarding the need to change puncture levels or modify the puncture approach(P>0.05).The midline approach group showed a significantly higher incidence of paresthesia and a greater frequency of post-operative puncture site tenderness at two days post-surgery compared to the paramedian approach group(P<0.05).Anesthetic efficacy was comparable between the two groups,with no statistically significant difference detected(P>0.05).Conclusions In hemorrhoidectomy procedures for AIDS patients,the paramedian approach demon-strates advantages over the median approach in terms of puncture success and reduced complications associated with ultrasound-guided combined spinal-epidural anesthesia.However,no significant difference in anesthetic efficacy is observed between the two approaches.

Objective:To study the predictive value of Barcelona clinic liver cancer (BCLC) staging system combined with albumin-indocyanine green (ALICE) score (ALICE-BCLC) in hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma, and compare it with BCLC staging system combined with Child-Pugh score (CP-BCLC).Methods:The clinical data of 311 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent hepatectomy at Jinhua Hospital Affiliated to Zhejiang University from April 2012 to June 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 271 males and 40 females, with a median age of 59 years old (range 26 to 92 years old). These patients were divided into two groups based on the ALICE-BCLC: the ALICE-BCLC grade 0 group ( n=63) and the ALICE-BCLC grade A group ( n=248); and another two groups based on the CP-BCLC: the CP-BCLC grade 0 group ( n=58) and the CP-BCLC grade A group ( n=253). The clinical data, including indocyanine green retention rate at 15 min, and albumin were collected and the scores were calculated. Follow-up was conducted by combining outpatient visits with telephone calls. The survival rate was calculated by the life method, and survival curves were drawn by the Kaplan-Meier method. The multivariate Cox regression model was used to determine the main factors affecting prognosis. Weighted Kappa was used to compare consistency of the two staging systems. Results:Multivariate analysis showed that a maximum tumor diameter >5 cm, total bilirubin >18 μmol/L, major hepatectomy, CP-BCLC grade A and ALICE-BCLC grade A to be independent risk factors affecting overall survival of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma after liver resection with curative intent (all P<0.05). The median survival of patients in the CP-BCLC grade 0 group and the CP-BCLC grade A group were 43.0 and 28.0 months, respectively. There was a significant difference between the two groups ( P=0.017). The median survival of patients in the ALICE-BCLC grade 0 group and the ALICE-BCLC grade A group were 41.4 and 28.1 months, respectively. There was a significant difference between the two groups ( P=0.035). The weighted Kappa coefficient of ALICE-BCLC and CP-BCLC was 0.949, showing a strong consistency ( P<0.001). Conclusion:ALICE-BCLC showed a good predictive value for prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma after liver resection, and it had a similar overall prognostic discrimination ability as CP-BCLC.

Objective:To analyze the research hotspots and frontiers of hospital research management research from 1981 to 2022.Methods:The relevant literature in the field of hospital scientific research management was retrieved from the CNKI database to explore the trends of publications in this research field. A scientific knowledge graph was drawn and a visualization analysis of the information of authors, issuing units, and research institutions were conducted by Cite Space.5.8.R3.Research hotspots were discussed based on keyword emergence, cluster analysis, and keyword time zone graph.Results:The publication trend in this field was generally policy-oriented, but the cooperation among authors and institutions was relatively loose, and the research hotspots were gradually shifting from scientific research funding management to discipline construction, talent training, translational medicine, and informatization. Cluster analysis found that the main content of hospital scientific research management was scientific research funding and clinical scientific research management and the main management objects were the medical and nursing staff.Conclusions:Hospital scientific research managers must adhere to the policy-oriented approach, strengthen the cooperation and exchanges in scientific research management, innovate the scientific research management mode around the research hotspots and development trends, and promote the quality and efficiency of scientific research management.

Objective:To investiagte the ability of albumin-indocyanine green (ALICE) score, albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) score and Child-Pugh score in predicting postoperative liver failure (PHLF) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, and to determine the clinical value of ALICE score.Methods:The clinical data of 397 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent hepatectomy in the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery, Jinhua Hospital Affiliated to Zhejiang University from June 2015 to June 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, including 350 males and 47 females, aged (58.9±11.2) years. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used to analyze the risk factors of PHLF. The predictive ability of ALICE score for PHLF was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and compared with ALBI score and Child-Pugh score.Results:There were 74 patients with PHLF and 323 patients without PHLF. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that Child-Pugh score ( OR=1.630, 95% CI: 1.251-2.486, P=0.034), ALBI score ( OR=1.863, 95% CI: 1.028-3.119, P=0.049) and ALICE score ( OR=1.759, 95% CI: 1.216-3.078, P=0.038) were independent risk factors for PHLF in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, and the risk of PHLF increased with the increase of grade. The area under the ROC curve of ALICE score predicting PHLF in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma was 0.613 (95% CI: 0.564-0.662), the area under the ALBI score was 0.612 (95% CI: 0.563-0.661), and the area under the Child-Pugh score was 0.555 (95% CI: 0.505-0.605). The ALICE score was better than the Child-Pugh score, and the difference was statistically significant ( z=2.04, P=0.041). In small liver resection patients, ALICE score was better than Child-Pugh score ( z=2.61, P=0.009). There was no significant difference betwenn ALICE score and ALBI score ( z=0.06, P=0.954). Conclusion:ALICE score can predict the occurrence of PHLF in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, especially in patients with small liver resection, its value is similar to ALBI score, but better than Child-Pugh score.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effects of 5-fluorouracil in different mass concentrations combined with triamcinolone in the treatment of keloids.Methods:From March 2018 to March 2019, 29 patients with 31 keloids receipted in the Department of Plastic Surgery of Fujian Medical University Union Hospital, 11 patients with 20 keloids receipted in the Department of Dermatology of Pingtan Comprehensive Experimental Area Hospital, and 9 patients with 9 keloids receipted in the Fuzhou Heisey-Dea Aesthetic Clinic were included in this prospectively randomized control study, with 27 males and 22 females, aged (30±9) years. According to the random number table, the keloids were divided into low mass concentration group (19 keloids, 17 patients), medium mass concentration group (21 keloids, 19 patients), and high mass concentration group (20 keloids, 17 patients). Then 5-fluorouracil at mass concentrations of 0.5, 5.0, and 12.5 mg/mL combined with triamcinolone acetonide were injected respectively, once every 4 weeks, for a total of 3 times. Before the first treatment and in 3 months after the last treatment, the appearance of keloids was evaluated by Vancouver Scar Scale (VSS) and pain and pruritus of keloids were evaluated by Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Then the score differences before and after the treatment were calculated. In 6 months after the last treatment, the patients' efficacy satisfaction was evaluated by efficacy satisfaction rating scale. Adverse reactions during the treatment were recorded. In the follow-up of one year after the last treatment, the recurrence rates of keloids were counted. Data were statistically analyzed with chi-square test, one-way analysis of variance, paired sample t test, least significant difference t test, Wilcoxon rank sum test, Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test, or Fisher′s exact probability test. Results:Before the first treatment, the appearance VSS scores of appearance of keloids in the three groups were similar ( F=0.039, P>0.05). In 3 months after the last treatment, the appearance VSS scores of keloids in low mass concentration group were significantly higher than those in medium mass concentration group and high mass concentration group ( t=2.267, 4.086, P<0.05 or P<0.01). In 3 months after the last treatment, the appearance VSS scores of keloids in low mass concentration group, medium mass concentration group, and high mass concentration group were significantly decreased compared with those before the first treatment ( t=18.222, 44.272, 22.523, P<0.01). The differences of appearance VSS scores of keloids in low mass concentration group before and after treatment were significantly lower than those in medium mass concentration group and high mass concentration group ( t=-4.096, -6.357, P<0.01), and the differences of appearance VSS scores of keloids in medium mass concentration group before and after treatment were significantly lower than those in high mass concentration group ( t=-2.368, P<0.05). Before the first treatment, the pain and pruritus VAS scores of keloids in the three groups were similar ( χ2=0.149, P>0.05). In 3 months after the last treatment, the pain and pruritus VAS scores of keloids in low mass concentration group were significantly higher than those in medium mass concentration group and high mass concentration group ( Z=2.191, 4.386, P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the pain and pruritus VAS scores of keloids in medium mass concentration group were significantly higher than those in high mass concentration group ( Z=2.276, P<0.05). In 3 months after the last treatment, the pain and pruritus VAS scores of keloids in medium mass concentration group and high mass concentration group were significantly decreased compared with those before the first treatment ( Z=-3.904, -3.844, P<0.01). The differences of pain and pruritus VAS scores of keloids in low mass concentration group before and after treatment were significantly lower than those in medium mass concentration group and high mass concentration group ( Z=-4.265, -6.104, P<0.01). In 6 months after the last treatment, the efficacy satisfaction scores of the corresponding patients of keloids were (88±8) points in high mass concentration group, which were significantly higher than (76±8) points in medium mass concentration group and (60±8) points in low mass concentration group ( t=-3.820, -6.675, P<0.01), and the efficacy satisfaction scores of the corresponding patients of keloids in medium mass concentration group were significantly higher than those in high mass concentration group ( t=-2.984, P<0.05). There was only statistically significant difference in pain within the 3 groups ( P<0.01). In the follow-up of one year after the last treatment, the recurrence rate of keloids in high mass concentration group was significantly lower than that in low mass concentration group ( χ2=8.313, P<0.01), and the recurrence rate of keloids in medium mass concentration group was similar to the recurrence rates in low mass concentration group and high mass concentration group ( P>0.05). Conclusions:After treating keloids with high mass concentration of 5-fluorouracil combined with triamcinolone acetonide, the symptoms were significantly improved, the efficacy satisfaction of patients was increased, with no obvious adverse reactions but long lasting efficacy. Their overall effects are better than treatment using medium and low mass concentrations of 5-fluorouracil, which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective:To explore the effect of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO)upon supporting during bilateral lung transplantation(BLTx)for different primary diseases.Methods:The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed for 139 cases of BLTx. They were divided into non-ECMO and ECMO groups. The perieoperative data of two groups were compared.Results:BLTx was successfully performed in all patients. As compared with non-ECMO group, operative duration, mechanical ventilation time and ICU hospitalization time were significantly prolonged in ECMO group ( P<0.05). The proportion of patients with different primary diseases was statistically significant different between two groups( P<0.01). ECMO was employed intraoperatively in all IPAH patients. ECMO proportion was higher in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis(IPF)patients but lower in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)counterparts( P<0.05). In terms of cardiac function indices, patients with a moderate/severe elevation of pulmonary artery pressure had a higher proportion of ECMO application( P<0.001). Moreover, the application of ECMO increased with the severity of tricuspid regurgitation and pulmonary vascular resistance(PVR)( P<0.05). Conclusions:It is both safe and feasible to apply ECMO during BLTx. ECMO support should be given a high priority during BLTx for patients with primary diseases such as IPAH, IPF, severe preoperative PAP, tricuspid regurgitation and PVR. On the other hand, ECMO is sufficient as an alternative choice for COPD patients.
