Objective To analyze the technical essentials of single-microport assisted micro-uni-port thoracoscopic surgery, and to investigate its surgical efficacy and promotional value. Methods Clinical data of patients who consecutively underwent radical upper lobectomy in the Department of Thoracic Surgery of Xi'an International Medical Center Hospital from March 2023 to June 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the surgical approach, patients were divided into two groups: the single-microport assisted group (underwent upper lobectomy via single-microport assisted micro-uni-port thoracoscopy) and the traditional uniportal group (underwent traditional uniportal thoracoscopic lobectomy). Clinical outcomes were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 62 patients were enrolled. There were 30 patients in the single-microport assisted group, with a mean age of (57.4±10.8) years, and 32 patients in the traditional uniportal thoracoscopic group, with a mean age of (57.6±8.7) years. The baseline data were comparable between the two groups. All patients in both groups successfully underwent minimally invasive surgery without conversion to thoracotomy. The operative time in the single-microport assisted group was significantly shorter than that in the traditional uniportal group [(146.03±30.79) min vs. (171.41±36.41) min, P=0.004]. However, there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in intraoperative blood loss, number of dissected lymph nodes, duration of chest tube drainage, postoperative pain score, postoperative hospital stay, hospitalization cost, or incidence of postoperative complications (all P>0.05). Conclusion Single-microport assisted micro-uni-port thoracoscopic surgery for upper lobectomy can maximally integrate the advantages of three-port and uni-port VATS while effectively avoiding their disadvantages. It significantly shortens the operative time without increasing postoperative pain or complications, and represents a more minimally invasive, safer, and more convenient surgical approach.

Objective:To retrospectively analyze and compare the clinical effects of rigid neuroendoscopic hematoma removal and drilling irrigation drainage in the treatment of chronic subdural hematomas with mixed density on head CT, and explore the appropriate surgical methods for chronic subdural hematomas with mixed density.Methods:A retrospective case-control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 80 patients with CSDH with mixed density CT findings admitted to the Department of Neurosurgery of Guizhou Medical University Affiliated Hospital from January 2021 to November 2023. There were 57 males and 23 females. According to the surgical method, patients were divided into endoscopic group ( n=36) and drilling group ( n=44). Patients in the endoscopic group underwent hard neuroendoscopic hematoma removal surgery, while patients in the drilling group underwent drilling flushing and drainage surgery. Compared the surgical time, drainage time, hematoma clearance rate, length of hospital stay, markwalder neurological function grading, and activities of daily living (ADL) score between two groups 30 days after surgery. Followed up for 3 months to record the recurrence situation.Measurement data with a normal distribution were expressed as mean±standard deviation ( ± s), and t-test was used for inter-group comparison. Measurement data with a non-normal distribution were expressed as M( Q1, Q3), and rank sum test was used for inter-group comparison. Chi-square test or Fisher′s exact test was used for inter-group comparison of count data. Rank sum test was used for inter-group comparison of ordinal data. Results:The operation time, postoperative drainage time, 24-hour hematoma clearance rate, midline deviation distance and hospital stay in the endoscopic group respectively were (77.50±8.15) min, 1.00(1.00, 2, 00) d, (95.00±2.66)%, 1.00(0.00, 2.00) mm, (9.47±2.52) d. The drilling group were (44.77±6.56) min, 3.00(2.25, 3.00) d, (87.86±3.43)%, 3.00(2.00, 3.00) mm, (11.84±3.28) d, the difference was statistically significant between the two groups ( P<0.05). Comparison of long-term efficacy in the endoscopic group, the hematoma clearance rate at 30 days after operation, the ADL score at 30 days after operation, and the number of recurrence cases at 3 months after operation respectively were 99.00(97.25, 100.00)%, (88.06±7.86) points, and 1 case. The drilling group were 93.50(91.25, 95.75)%, (83.29±9.58) points and 10 cases, with statistical difference between the two groups( P<0.05). 30 day postoperative Markwalder neurological functional grading, there were 27 cases grades 0, 9 cases of grade I, and 0 cases of grade II in endoscopic surgery. In the drilling group, there were 24 cases, 15 cases, and 5 cases, respectively. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with drilling and drainage irrigation surgery, neuroendoscopic treatment of mixed density chronic subdural hematoma takes a relatively long time, but the hematoma clearance rate is higher, the hospitalization time is shorter, the postoperative recovery is faster and the recurrence rate is lower. Neuroendoscopic therapy has unique advantages and may be more suitable for the treatment of mixed density CSDH.

ObjectiveAutism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by difficulties with communication and social interaction, restricted and repetitive behaviors. Previous studies have indicated that individuals with ASD exhibit early and lifelong attention deficits, which are closely related to the core symptoms of ASD. Basic visual attention processes may provide a critical foundation for their social communication and interaction abilities. Therefore, this study explores the behavior of children with ASD in capturing attention to changes in topological properties. MethodsOur study recruited twenty-seven ASD children diagnosed by professional clinicians according to DSM-5 and twenty-eight typically developing (TD) age-matched controls. In an attention capture task, we recorded the saccadic behaviors of children with ASD and TD in response to topological change (TC) and non-topological change (nTC) stimuli. Saccadic reaction time (SRT), visual search time (VS), and first fixation dwell time (FFDT) were used as indicators of attentional bias. Pearson correlation tests between the clinical assessment scales and attentional bias were conducted. ResultsThis study found that TD children had significantly faster SRT (P<0.05) and VS (P<0.05) for the TC stimuli compared to the nTC stimuli, while the children with ASD did not exhibit significant differences in either measure (P>0.05). Additionally, ASD children demonstrated significantly less attention towards the TC targets (measured by FFDT), in comparison to TD children (P<0.05). Furthermore, ASD children exhibited a significant negative linear correlation between their attentional bias (measured by VS) and their scores on the compulsive subscale (P<0.05). ConclusionThe results suggest that children with ASD have difficulty shifting their attention to objects with topological changes during change detection. This atypical attention may affect the child’s cognitive and behavioral development, thereby impacting their social communication and interaction. In sum, our findings indicate that difficulties in attentional capture by TC may be a key feature of ASD.
