Wearable monitoring, which has the advantages of continuous monitoring for a long time with low physiological and psychological load, represents a future development direction of monitoring technology. Based on wearable physiological monitoring technology, combined with Internet of Things (IoT) and artificial intelligence technology, this paper has developed an intelligent monitoring system, including wearable hardware, ward Internet of Things platform, continuous physiological data analysis algorithm and software. We explored the clinical value of continuous physiological data using this system through a lot of clinical practices. And four value points were given, namely, real-time monitoring, disease assessment, prediction and early warning, and rehabilitation training. Depending on the real clinical environment, we explored the mode of applying wearable technology in general ward monitoring, cardiopulmonary rehabilitation, and integrated monitoring inside and outside the hospital. The research results show that this monitoring system can be effectively used for monitoring of patients in hospital, evaluation and training of patients' cardiopulmonary function, and management of patients outside hospital.

Ischemic stroke is a common neurological disorder that can lead to neuronal death and neurological dysfunction. Microglia is the main immune cells in the central nervous system, involved in post-stroke inflammation and tissue repair. Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2), a receptor expressed on the surface of microglia, plays a multifaceted role in neuronal survival and nerve repair after ischemic stroke, including promoting the phagocytosis of microglia, inhibiting excessive inflammatory response, maintaining the proliferation and survival of microglia, protecting neurons from damage, and promoting the recovery of nerve function. Therefore, elucidating the immunoregulatory mechanism of TREM2 on microglia after cerebral ischemia is of great significance for exploring new therapeutic directions for ischemic stroke.

Phagoptosis is a kind of cell death mode which has been widely concerned in recent years. Previous studies have shown that the phagocytosis of viable neurons by microglia (phagoptosis) may be involved in the pathophysiological processes of various neurological diseases, including ischemic stroke. After cerebral ischemia, microglia chemotaxis towards ischemic brain tissue, and then recognize and engulf the stressed neurons, leading to further damage or even death of neurons, thereby exacerbating cerebral ischemic injury. This article reviews the relationship between phagoptosis and cerebral ischemia, with a focus on elucidating the molecular mechanisms of phagoptosis after cerebral ischemia, in order to provide new targets and strategies for the treatment of cerebral ischemia.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of microsurgical treatment in cavernous sinus tumors.Methods:The clinical data of 87 patients with cavernous sinus tumor treated by microsurgery from January, 2010 to August, 2019 were analysed retrospectively. The surgical approaches and microsurgical skills for common tumors in Cavernous Sinus region were discussed. The follow-up included outpatient and telephone follow-ups, and the follow-up results were evaluated by KPS score.Results:Among the 87 cases, 57 were totally resected (65.5%), 14 were subtotal resected (16.1%) and 16 were major resected (18.4%). Hospitalisation ranged from 14 to 98 days, with an average of 29 days. Postoperative complications occurred in 30 cases with cranial nerve injury, 2 brain stem injury, 4 postoperative bleeding, 5 cerebrospinal fluid leakage, 4 infection, 1 Pituitary damage and 1 death. Prognosis and follow-up analysis showed 68 cases with KPS>60 and 66 with KPS>80 at 1 month after surgery; 74 with KPS>70 and 72 with KPS>80 at 3 months after surgery; 78 with KPS>80 by 12 months after surgery. During the follow-up period of 6-120 months, 3 cases died. Recurrence: 6 of incomplete resection of meningioma, were in 1-6 years after the surgery, 4 of incomplete resection of schwannoma in 1-8 years, 2 of pituitary adenoma respectively in 13 and 16 months after the surgery. There was no recurrence after reoperation. Two cases of chondrosarcoma, 3 of chordoma and 3 of germinoma were treated with radiotherapy, and during the follow-up, there was no progress of the focus. No tumor progression or recurrence was found in other cases during follow-up.Conclusion:Surgery of cavernous sinus tumor is difficult due to frequent postoperative complications. Reasonable preoperative plan, surgical approach and precise microsurgical techniques are the keys in reduction of postoperative complications and in the improvement of prognosis.

Objective To explore the monitoring of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) dynamics in a model of brain herniation induced by acute intracranial hypertension in Guangxi Bama-Mini pigs by phasecontrast cine magnetic resonance imaging (PC cine MRI).Methods Femoral artery blood were extracted from 10 pigs,and injected into the frontal and temporal parietal lobe to make a model of brain herniation induced by acute intracranial hypertension.The mean arterial blood pressure (MAP),intracranial pressure (ICP),and cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) were monitored.Routine T1WI,T2WI,coronal,sagittal and cerebrospinal fluid flow sequence (fast PC cine slice) which positioned on the cervical 3 (C3) vertebral body as the center and perpendicular to the spinal scans were performed on all experimental animals before and after blood injection with 3.0T Magnetic Resonance Imaging.The ICP,MAP,CPP,the absolute values of CSF peak flow velocity and the absolute value of carotid peak flow velocity before and after blood injection were compared.Results The ICP,MAP,CPP,and the absolute value of CSF peak flow velocity before injection of autologous arterial blood were statistically significant as compared with those after blood injection [(6.80±2.044) mmHg vs (52.20±1.619) mmHg,(76.80±7.068) mmHg vs (142.80±12.399) mmHg,(70.00±6.074) mmHg vs (90.50±12.250) mmHg,and the absolute value of CSF peak flow velocity was (243.20±77.671) mm/s vs (201.40±55.482) mm/s,respectively,P＜0.01].The absolute value of the peak velocity of the carotid artery before blood injection was not statistically significant compared with that after blood injection [(876.80±239.908) mm/s vs (799.40±241.829) mm/s,P＞0.05].Conclusion After the formation of brain herniation induced by acute intracranial hypertension,the CSF flow in the C3 level spinal canal showed a low dynamic change,and the CSF flow velocity waveform was disordered and malformed.The non-invasive measurement of CSF dynamics by PC cine MRI can provide an important basis for the change of CSF dynamics in the model of brain herniation induced by acute intracranial hypertension,and provide a theoretical basis for further research on damage control neurosurgery in the future.

Objective To study the efficacy of two different modes of surgical intervention for the treatment of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (HICH):YL-1 type hematoma removed by needle aspiration plus bio-enzyme liquefaction versus conventional craniectomy plus hematoma evacuation.Methods Medical records of 23 patients with HICH treated from December 2012 to February 2017 were retrospectively analyzed.The differences in demographics,length of operation time,costs and length of hospital stay,Glasgow Outcome Scale scores and 3-month follow-up results were compared between the YL-1 type hematoma removed by needle aspiration plus bio-enzyme liquefaction in 12 patients and conventional craniectomy plus hematoma evacuation in 11 patients.Results There were no significant differences in the gender (male 58.33％ vs.63.64％,femal 41.67％ vs.36.36％),age (65.5±11.8 years vs.56.8±10.1 years),preoperative GCS (6.83±3.93 vs.5.82±3.40),intracranial hematoma volume (50.52±23.07 mL vs.68.77±11.18 mL) and length of hospital stay (15.58±14.72 days vs.22.45±18.37 days) (P＞0.05);There were statistically significant differences in length of operation time (0.73±0.21 h vs.3.92±0.67 h) and hospitalization costs (45 230.50±36 566.88 yuan of RMB vs.79 857.90±34 916.48 yuan of RMB) between two groups (P＜0.05);Follow-up 3 months,there were no significant differences in rate of good recovery 33.3％ vs.18.1％,severe disability rate (25.0％ vs.27.3％) and mortality rate (41.7％ vs.54.6％) between two groups (P＞0.05).Conclusions The minimally invasive YL-1 type hematoma aspiration procedure with bio-enzyme liquefaction as a minimally invasive surgery may be superior to conventional craniectomy for treating HICH because it can offer shorter operation time,more accurate hematoma localization,lower risk of injury,and lower hospitalization costs.In particular,the procedure is suitable for elderly,frail,and poor general condition patients.It can also be applied as emergency treatment for HICH.

Osteoarthritis (OA),a common chronic degenerative joint disease,rises gradually with age,which seri-ously affects the quality of life of middle-aged and elderly patients. Currently,the therapeutic medications such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)and analgesics might improve OA symptoms,but cannot prevent the development of OA. The active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM)have unique advantages in the treatment of OA. This article reviews the research progress of active ingredients of TCM in the prevention and treatment of OA reported by domestic and foreign journals in the past five years from the aspects of inhibition of the secretion of inflammation-related factors,improvement of cartilage matrix synthesis and catabolic imbalance, inhibition of chondrocyte apoptosis,promotion of chondrocyte proliferation,and regulation of estrogen levels,with an attempt to provide a theoretical basis for the development of new drugs for OA.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of urethral prefabrication with vaginal mucosa in female-to-male transsexuals and to compare the urologic complications after penile reconstruction in female-to-male transsexuals between prefabrication group and forearm group.Methods Prefabrication of the neourethra with tubed vaginal mucosal graft was performed for 22 female-to-male transsexual patients from 2007 to 2016,while radial forearm flap,known as the traditional tube-within-tube method,was used to construct the neourethra for other 31 cases.Results All of the reconstructed penises survived completely and allowed the patients to urinate while standing in the prefabrication group.Phalloplasty by using the vaginal mucosal graft for urethroplasty significantly decreased the donor scar,the duration of the second operation and the incidence rates of urologic strictures,comparing with the forearm group (P＜0.05).Conclusions It is reliable to use the prefabrication of the neourethra with tubed vaginal mucosal graft in phalloplasty female-to-male transsexual patients.
