To analyse the role and mechanism of lipid metabolism disorder in vascular aging caused by endothelial cells,smooth muscle cells,and macrophages.Lipid metabolism disorder damages endothelial cells and promotes vascular aging through the reactive oxygen species(ROS)pathway,endothelial nitric oxide synthase(eNOS)activity,oxidized low density lipoprotein(ox-LDL),inflammasomes,and various inflammatory factors.Lipid metabolism disorder accelerates vascular aging process through autophagy,DNA damage,and nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)in vascular smooth muscle cells.Lipid metabolism disorder stimulates macrophages in the vascular wall to secrete various inflammatory factors that act on the Toll-like receptor(TLR)pathway,promoting oxidative stress and causing DNA damage,thereby promoting vascular aging.Lipid metabolism disorder promotes oxidative stress and chronic inflammation in endothelial cells,smooth muscle cells,and macrophages,leading to vascular aging.

【Objective】 To investigate the clinical application of self-developed magnetic anchoring device for assisting thoracoscopic pulmonary resection. 【Methods】 Eleven patients underwent thoracoscopic pulmonary assisted with resection magnetic anchoring technique at the Department of Thoracic Surgery, The First Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University, from March to May 2019. Their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. The operation time, blood loss, blood transfusion volume, postoperative hospital stay, and postoperative complications were recorded. 【Results】 There were seven male and four female patients, with the average age of (51.6±13.9) years (range from 22 to 69 years). Three single-port and eight single-utility-port thoracoscopic surgeries were performed. Magnetic instruments provided good surgical field exposure in all operations. Among 11 surgeries, one was converted to thoracotomy and one to three-hole surgery due to enlargement and adhesion of hilar lymph nodes. The operation time was (107.8±63.1) minutes (range of 27-182 minutes). The blood loss was 50 (10-50)mL (range of 5-1 000 mL). No blood transfusion was needed during the operation. The postoperative hospital stay was (5.0±1.8) days (range of 3-9 days). No postoperative complications occurred in all the patients. 【Conclusion】 Magnetic anchor technique can effectively alleviate the "chopstick effect" in thoracoscopic surgery. Magnetic anchor technique is safe and feasible in assisting thoracoscopic pulmonary resection.
