Objective To compare the safety and efficacy of directional atherectomy with anti-restenosis therapy(DAART,drug-coated balloon)versus conventional balloon angioplasty(bare-metal stent,BMS)in elderly patients with femoropopliteal artery disease.Methods A retrospec-tive cohort study was conducted on 116 elderly patients undergoing endovascular intervention due to femoropopliteal artery disease in our hospital between May 2016 and September 2019,divided into DAART group(57 cases)and BMS group(59 cases).Results No statistical differences were observed between the DAART and BMS groups in terms of age,risk factors,distribution of Ruth-erford classification,lesion length,lesion type,lesion location,Global Limb Anatomic Staging Sys-tem grade,infra-popliteal runoff status,or preoperative ankle-brachial index(P＞0.05).However,the BMS group had significantly larger proportion of chronic limb-threatening ischemia than the other group(P＜0.05).Both groups achieved a 100％success rate of surgery.The DAART group obtained obviously higher primary patency rates at 1 and 2 years than the BMS group(90.4％vs 75.0％,76.3％vs 57.3％;P＜0.045).There were no significant differences in the rate of freedom from target lesion revascularization at 1 and 2 years between the two group(96.1％vs 88.8％,91.6％vs 77.7％;P＞0.05).In 2 years of follow-up,the incidence of major adverse events was 10.0％(5 cases)in the DAART group and 20.8％(12 cases)in the BMS group,but no obvious difference(P＞0.05).Conclusion DAART demonstrates superior mid-term efficacy than BMS in treating femoropopliteal artery disease in elderly patients.However,comprehensive preoperative assessment is essential to optimize individualized treatment strategies for this population.

Objective:To investigate the mediating effect of dyadic coping on the relationship between self-disclosure and fertility anxiety in women of childbearing age with thyroid cancer.Methods:A total of 258 women of childbearing age diagnosed with thyroid cancer who received treatment at the Department of Thyroid Surgery, First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University between January and October 2024 were selected using convenience sampling. Participants completed a general information questionnaire, the Chinese version of the Reproductive Concerns After Cancer scale (RCAC), the Dyadic Coping Inventory (DCI), and the Distress Disclosure Index (DDI). Structural equation modeling was constructed using SPSS PROCESS v4.1 to examine the mediating role of dyadic coping between self-disclosure and fertility anxiety. Pearson correlation analysis was used to assess the relationships among self-disclosure, dyadic coping, and fertility anxiety.Results:A total of 258 questionnaires were distributed, and 245 valid responses were collected, with an effective response rate of 94.96% (245/258). Among the 245 participants, the mean score of DDI was (37.38±8.42), RCAC was (53.54±12.53), and DCI was (117.10±29.07). Self-disclosure was positively correlated with dyadic coping ( P<0.01), while both self-disclosure and dyadic coping were negatively correlated with fertility anxiety ( P<0.01). Dyadic coping played a partial mediating role between self-disclosure and fertility anxiety, accounting for 43.38% of the total effect. Conclusions:Fertility anxiety in women of childbearing age with thyroid cancer deserves close clinical attention. Interventions should focus on enhancing patients' self-disclosure and dyadic coping abilities to effectively reduce fertility-related anxiety.

Right ventricular-pulmonary artery coupling(RVPAC)refers to the relationship between right ventricular contractility and afterload.Normal RVPAC is maintained only when right ventricular function and pulmonary vascular resistance are appropriately matched.When right ventricular contractility cannot increase to match afterload,thus resulting in right ventricular dysfunction.RVPAC plays an important role in pathophysiology and progression of many cardiovascular diseases,which is crucial for the prognosis of patients.Therefore,early and accurate evaluation of RVPAC has great significance for patient's condition assessment,clinical decision-making,risk stratification and prognosis judgment.There are many evaluation methods currently,which can be divided into invasive and non-invasive methods,among which the non-invasive methods are mainly correlated with ultrasound.This review summarizes pathological mechanism and evaluation methods of RVPAC,advantages and disadvantages of each method and application value of RVPAC in various cardiovascular diseases.

Objective To establish a standardized supply model for ophthalmic surgical instruments using lean manage-ment methods,develop a formula for determining optimal instrument inventory levels,and improve the management efficiency of ophthalmic surgical instruments.Methods A total of 2,281 cataract instrument sets from January 2023 to December 2024 were analyzed.From January to December 2023(1 141 sets),conventional process management was implemented,while from January to December 2024(1 140 sets),a lean theory-based standardized model was applied.Key parameters including surgical time,sterilization workflow,and instrument management were recorded to establish the model.A quantitative analysis incorporating sur-gical time,turnover interval,transportation time,relaxation rate,cycle interval,and target instruments was conducted to derive the inventory formula.A two-month pilot study on cataract surgeries was performed to validate the model's feasibility.The inci-dence of special events before and after implementing the standardized model was compared.Results The formula-derived data aligned with clinical demands,demonstrating precise quantification of ophthalmic instrument sets and high process stability.The incidence of special events post-implementation was significantly lower than pre-implementation(P＜0.05).Conclusion The lean theory-based standardized supply model effectively enhances the management of ophthalmic surgical instruments.
