Objective    To explore the safety and feasibility of uni-portal video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) for the treatment of bronchopulmonary sequestration (BPS). Methods    The clinical data of BPS patients with surgical resection in Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital from February 2010 to June 2021 were reviewed. The patients were divided into a VATS group and a thoracotomy group according to the operation method. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, hospital stay and postoperative complication rate were compared between the two groups. The VATS group was subdivided into a uni-portal VATS group and a multi-portal VATS group for subgroup analysis. Results    Finally 131 patients were enrolled, including 62 males and 69 females with an average age of 39.3±13.2 years. There were 103 patients in the VATS group and 28 patients in the thoracotomy group. A total of 104 patients were diagnosed with left lower BPS, 26 with right lower BPS and 1 with bilateral lower BPS. The main symptom was cough (88 patients, 67.2%). There were 119 patients diagnosed by thoracic enhanced CT before operation. Compared with the thoracotomy group, the operation time was not statistically different (P=0.717), but the blood loss was less, the rate of postoperative complication was lower and hospital stay was shorter in the VATS group (P<0.05). The rate of conversion to open surgery in the uni-portal VATS group and multi-portal VATS group was 11.8% and 13.5%, respectively. Meanwhile, patients in the uni-portal VATS group had shorter operation time and postoperative hospital stay, less blood loss and lower postoperative complication rate than those in the multi-portal VATS group (P<0.05). Conclusion     In order to improve the rate of diagnosis, the lung enhanced CT scan should be selected as an optimal noninvasive method in adult suspected patients (especially those with solid cystic and solid lesions in the lower lobe). Uni-portal VATS is a safe and feasible method for BPS which can be widely promoted.

Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is an acquired clonal hematopoietic stem cell disease caused by abnormal expression of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) on the cell membrane due to mutations in the phosphatidylinositol glycan class A(PIGA) gene. It is commonly characterized by intravascular hemolysis, repeated thrombosis, and bone marrow failure, as well as multiple systemic involvement symptoms such as renal dysfunction, pulmonary hypertension, swallowing difficulties, chest pain, abdominal pain, and erectile dysfunction. Due to the rarity of PNH and its strong heterogeneity in clinical manifestations, multidisciplinary collaboration is often required for diagnosis and treatment. Peking Union Medical College Hospital, relying on the rare disease diagnosis and treatment platform, has invited multidisciplinary clinical experts to form a unified opinion on the diagnosis and treatment of PNH, and formulated the Expert Consensus of Multidisciplinary Diagnosis and Treatment for Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (2024), with the hope of promoting the standardization of PNH diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To compare and analyze the results of hysterosalpingography(HSG)in primary infertility patients who received ultra-liquefied ethiodized poppyseed oil-based contrast medium or iodized oil-based contrast medium.Methods A total of 212 patients with primary infertility who received HSG examination were enrolled,of which 96 patients were in the ultra-liquefied ethiodized pop-pyseed oil-based contrast medium group,while 116 patients were in the iodized oil-based contrast medium group.The visual analogue scale(VAS)score of pain during HSG,adverse reactions(allergic reaction of contrast medium,contrast medium reflux,etc.),24 h-peri-toneal distribution and natural pregnancy rate within 1 year after HSG were analyzed between the two groups.Results The VAS score[(1.62±0.92)points]and the incidence of contrast medium reflux(5.2％)in the ultra-liquefied ethiodized poppyseed oil-based con-trast medium group were lower than those in the iodized oil-based contrast medium group[(3.2±1.42)points and 13.8％],respectively and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant(P＜0.05).In the 24 h-peritoneal distribution,the diagnosis rate of mild pelvic adhesion in the ultra-liquefied ethiodized poppyseed oil-based contrast medium group(26％)was lower than that in the iodized oil-based contrast medium group(39.7％),and the difference was statistically significant(P=0.041).The natural pregnancy rate of the two groups within 1 year was significantly improved,but there was no significant difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion Ultra-liquefied ethiodized poppyseed oil-based contrast medium has less pain,lower incidence adverse reactions and better peritoneal distribution,and improve the natural pregnancy rate in primary infertility patients undergoing HSG.It is a high priority contrast medium for HSG.

Background: Diabetes can complicate hypertension management by increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and all-cause mortality. Studies targeting diabetes detection in hypertensive individuals demonstrating an increased risk of diabetes are lacking.We aimed to assess the performance of hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and its cut-off point in detecting diabetes in the abovementioned population. Methods: Data from 4,096 community-dwellers with hypertension but without known diabetes were obtained from the Study on Evaluation of iNnovated Screening tools and determInation of optimal diagnostic cut-off points for type 2 diaBetes in Chinese muLti-Ethnic (SENSIBLE) study; these data were randomly split into exploration (70% of the sample) and internal validation (the remaining 30%) datasets. The optimal HbA1c cut-off point was derived from the exploration dataset and externally validated using another dataset from 2,431 hypertensive individuals. The oral glucose tolerance test was considered the goldstandard for confirming diabetes. Results: The areas under the ROC curves for HbA1c to detect diabetes were 0.842, 0.832, and 0.829 for the exploration, internal validation, and external validation datasets, respectively. An optimal HbA1c cut-off point of 5.8% (40 mmol/mol) yielded a sensitivity of 76.2% and a specificity of 74.5%. Individuals who were not diagnosed as having diabetes by HbA1c at 5.8% (40 mmol/mol) had a lower 10-year CVD risk score than those diagnosed as having diabetes (P = 0.01). HbA1c ≤ 5.1% (32 mmol/mol) and ≥ 6.4% (46 mmol/mol) could indicate the absence and presence of diabetes, respectively. Conclusions HbA1c could detect diabetes effectively in community-dwellers with hypertension.
