Objective Investigate the clinical efficacy and application value of gasless trans-subclavian approach endoscopic surgery(GTAES)for the treatment of primary hyperparathyroidism(PHPT).Methods 55 PHPT patients who underwent unilateral parathyroid adenoma resection from January 2023 to October 2024 were absorbed.Based on surgical approaches,31 patients were divided into the traditional low-collar arc incision open surgery group(open group)and 24 patients were divided into gasless trans-subclavian approach endoscopic surgery group(endoscopic group).The perioperative data,anterior neck function recovery,and incision healing were compared between two groups.Results There were no significant differences in operation time,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative drainage volume and postoperative hospital stay between the two groups(P＞0.05).The preoperative blood calcium levels of the endoscopic group and the open group were(2.68±0.10)mmol/L and(2.63±0.16)mmol/L,respectively.The blood calcium levels on the first day after surgery were(2.39±0.12)mmol/L and(2.36±0.16)mmol/L,respectively.Preoperative parathyroid hormone(PTH)was 27.55(110.05,155.75)pg/ml in endoscopic group and 137.00(107.00,210.30)pg/ml in open group,respectively.PTH on the first day after surgery was 18.98(12.64,23.53)pg/ml and 13.85(7.36,23.23)pg/ml,respectively.Blood calcium and PTH in each group 1 day after surgery decreased compared with that before surgery,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).There were no postoperative complications such as hoarseness,bleeding and incision infection in both groups.Postoperative hand and foot numbness:5 cases(20.8％)in endoscopic group and 8 patients(25.8％)in the open group,there was no significant difference between the two groups(P=0.667).There was no significant difference in the score of neck pain 3 days after surgery between the two groups(P＞0.05).The score of swallowing tension[(1.92±1.06)points compared with(2.77±1.38)points,P=0.015]and the score of anterior neck discomfort[(1.63±0.88)points compared with(2.35±1.33)points,P=0.018]in the endoscopic group one month after surgery were better than those in the open group.There was no significant difference in the score of neck scar scale between the two groups 3 months after surgery(P＞0.05).VAS score of incision satisfaction was(9.08±0.88)in endoscopic group and(8.19±1.30)in open group,and the endoscopic group was better than the open group,the difference was statistically significant(P=0.004).Conclusion For PHPT patients caused by unilateral parathyroid adenoma confirmed through preoperative localization examination,GTAES is a safe and effective surgical approach,which offers unique advantages in intraoperative lesion identification,cosmetic outcomes of the incision,and preservation of anterior neck function,providing a new surgical option for PHPT patients.

The incidence rate of thyroid cancer is rising rapidly worldwide,and the academic community has different views on its causes.Some believe that thyroid cancer is caused by over-diagnosis,but according to a large sample of epidemiological studies,its incidence rate is rising.The latest study reports that the mortality rate of thyroid cancer in the United States is on the rise,which may be related to the downgrade of diagnosis and treatment for papillary thyroid cancer according to the ATA guidelines.The mortality rate in Asian countries such as South Korea is showing a decreasing trend over time,which might be related to the active diagnosis and treatment measures.The 5-year survival rate of thyroid cancer in China has increased from 67.5％in 2003-2005 to 84.3％in 2012-2015,which still lags far behind 98.3％in the United States.Considering the differences in homogeneous diagnosis and treatment of thyroid cancer in China,if we blindly follow the guidelines of other countries,it may lead to an increase in the mortality rate of thyroid cancer in China.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of intravenous thrombolysis with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) in patients with maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) and acute ischemic stroke.Methods:The clinical data of 235 patients with acute ischemic stroke receiving MHD were collected in our hospital from March 2018 to October 2021. According to the treatment methods chosen by themselves, these patients were divided into control group ( n=70, only receiving standardized secondary stroke prevention), rt-PA low-dose group ( n=85, receiving rt-PA intravenous thrombolysis, 0.6 mg/kg) and rt-PA standard-dose group ( n=80, receiving rt-PA intravenous thrombolysis, 0.9 mg/kg). The effective rate 24 h after treatment, good efficacy rate 7 d after treatment, and good prognosis rate and mortality 90 d after treatment were used to evaluate the effectiveness. The incidences of intracranial hemorrhage, symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage, and severe extracranial hemorrhage 90 d after treatment were used to evaluate the safety. Results:There was no statistical difference in the good prognosis rate 90 d after treatment among the rt-PA low-dose group, the rt-PA standard-dose group and the control group (71.8%, 68.8%, and 64.3%; P>0.05), but the effective rate 24 h after treatment and good efficacy rate 7 d after treatment in the rt-PA low-dose group and rt-PA standard-dose group (44.7%, 57.7%; 46.3%, 62.5%) were both significantly higher than those in the control group (27.1%, 38.6%; P<0.05). The mortality 90 d after treatment in the rt-PA low-dose group (7.1%) was significantly lower than that in the rt-PA standard-dose group (22.5%) and control group (21.4%, P<0.05). The incidences of intracranial hemorrhage and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage in the rt-PA low-dose group (8.2%, 3.5%) were significantly lower than those in the rt-PA standard-dose group (22.5%, 16.3%; P<0.05), and the incidences of extracranial complications and gastrointestinal bleeding (5.9%, 1.2%) were significantly lower than those in the rt-PA standard-dose group (18.8%, 10.0%; P<0.05). Conclusion:Intravenous thrombolytic therapy with 0.6 mg/kg rt-PA is recommended for acute ischemic stroke patients receiving MHD.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and risk factors of restless leg syndrome (RLS) in hemodialysis patients after kidney transplantation failure.Methods Patients of hemodialysis after kidney transplantation failure were investigated by face-to-face interviews,from March to July,2015,at four dialysis units in Beijing.RLS was diagnosed according to the International RLS Study Group (IRLSSG) criteria.The severity of RLS was assessed using International RLS Rating scale.Besides,three validated sleep disorder questionnaires (Hamilton anxiety and depression scale,Epworth sleepiness scale and Pittsburgh sleep quality index) were completed by the patients at the same time.Results Ninety-four hemodialysis patients after kidney transplantation failure were enrolled;46 patients (48.94％) met the diagnosis of RLS,the average age was 53.44±l 1.89 years,and the median time of RLS onset after kidney transplantation failure was 46 months.The International RLS Rating scale scores of the patients were 17.26±7.81;76.0％ patients were above moderate.As compared with the non-RLS patients,patients with RLS used more erythropoietin (44/48 vs.46/46),less ferrila (30/48 vs.19/46),and few hypnotic medicine (10/48 vs.3/46),with significant differences (P＜0.05).The serum ion,serum ferritin and serum Vitamin B12 of patients with RLS were significantly lower as compared with non-RLS patients (P＜0.05);and poorer sleep quality and higher depression scale scores in the patients with RLS were noted as compared with those in the non-RLS patients (P＜0.05).Conclusion The prevalence of RLS in hemodialysis patients after kidney transplantation failure is high,low iron protein content,low serum iron content and low vitamin B12 levels may be risk factors for RLS.
