Objective:To explore the safety and efficacy of ureteroscopy-assisted laparoscopic ureteroplasty in the healthy side-lying running position for the treatment of ureteral stenosis after pelvic surgery.Methods:The data of 92 patients with ureteral stenosis after surgery admitted to Ganzhou People’s Hospital from June 2017 to February 2023 were retrospectively analysed. There were 31 male patients and 61 female patients, with an average age of (46.4±23.3) years. Of the 92 patients, 53 patients had previously undergone stone fragmentation or stone retrieval surgery for urinary system stones, 35 patients had undergone gynecologic laparoscopic surgery for gynecologic diseases, 2 patients had previous intestinal surgery, and 2 patients had undergone laparoscopic ureteral reconstruction surgery. The mean preoperative serum creatinine was (120.33±16.52) μmol/L, the mean blood urea nitrogen was (14.28 ± 2.47) mmol/L, and the mean renal pelvis dilation was (3.23±2.47) cm. All patients were placed in healthy side-lying running position with general anesthesia. The patient's lower limbs were in the oblique supine position, and the angle of the lower limbs was 60-80°. By using a transabdominal approach, the narrow section of the ureter was mobilized and excised under the guidance of ureteroscopy. The posterior wall of the ureter was sutured and a zebra guidewire was placed into the renal pelvis. An F7 double-J stent was then retrogradely advanced over the guidewire. Then the anterior wall of the ureter was anastomosed to complete the surgery. The operation time, average length of hospital stay, perioperative complications, preoperative and postoperative pyelectasis and renal function changes were recorded, and the clinical efficacy were evaluated by comparative analysis.Results:Of the 92 patients, 90 patients were successfully treated with ureterovesical anastomosis. Two patients underwent ureterovesical reimplantation because of the low position and heavy adhesion of the stenosis segment. There were no cases of conversion to open surgery or intraoperative death. The mean surgery duration was (121.52±22.35) min, the mean drainage tube indwelling time was (3.16±1.23) d, and the mean hospital stay was (6.46±2.37) d. A patient with moderate hydronephrosis exhibited postoperative urinary leakage. Two patients developed symptoms of hematuria after ambulation. Following treatment with bed rest, adequate drainage, and appropriate hemostatic medication, all patients recovered smoothly and were discharged. The double J tube was removed 3 months after operation, and the CT reexamination after extubation showed that the degree of pyelectasis was (2.52±1.54) cm, the average serum creatinine was (89.64±15.21) μmol/L, and urea nitrogen was (9.42±1.36) mmol/L, which was all significantly different from that before operation ( P<0.05). The patients were followed up for 6 to 12 months, and there was no ureteral restenosis. Conclusions:Ureteroscopic-assisted laparoscopic ureteroplasty in the healthy side-lying running position is a safe and effective surgical method for the treatment of short segment (narrow segment <3 cm) ureteral cicatrix stenosis after surgery. And this surgical method has the advantages of accurate positioning of the narrow segment, safe and convenient ureteral free, exact ureteral anastomosis, and easy placement of double J tube.

Crawling is a significant sign of gross motor development in infants,and also an important means of rehabilitation training for patients with motor disorders.The accurate measurement of the motion state during human crawling is essential for evaluating the gross motor developmental process in infants and the rehabilitation outcome of patients with motor disorders.In recent years,many studies have attempted to quantitatively evaluate the motion state by detecting physiological signals during human crawling,but there is a lack of overview on human crawling motion signal acquisition and processing.Herein the detection and processing methods for motion signals during human crawling and relevant researches are reviewed.The mainstream methods for detecting motion signals during human crawling are introduced from the perspectives of inertial sensors,pressure sensors,and surface electromyography.Then,the signal processing and analysis such as periodic segmentation,kinematic analysis,and dynamic analysis in human crawling are summarized.Based on the theory of motion coordination,the research advances in joint synergy and muscle synergy during human crawling are elaborated.Finally,the current problems and future development directions of motion analysis for human crawling are discussed.

Objective To observe the clinical effect of Yi'naokang Capsules combined with Donepezil Hydrochloride Tablets in treating post-stroke cognitive impairment(PSCI).Methods 110 patients who met the diagnostic criteria of PSCI in the outpatient department were included.According to the random number table method,the patients were divided into trial group and control group,with 55 cases in each group.Patients in control group were treated with routine western medicine,including the treatment of Donepezil Hydrochloride Tablets and secondary prevention of stroke such as lowering blood pressure,lowering blood lipid,lowering blood glucose and anti-platelet aggregation.The trial group was treated with Yi'naokang Capsules on the basis of the treatment in control group,and both groups were treated for 6 months.Before and after 6 months of treatment,the cognitive function of patients was evaluated by the Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MoCA)scale.The activity of daily living(ADL)scale was used to evaluate the ability of daily living,and the severity of cerebral white matter lesions was evaluated by Fazekas scale,and the adverse reactions were also observed.Results After 6 months of treatment,the total score of the MoCA,the scores of visual space and executive function,attention,delayed recall and the ADL of the two groups were all improved(P＜0.05),and the improvement degree of the trial group was better than that of the control group(P＜0.05).The Fazekas score of the trial group after treatment was no significant difference when compared with that before treatment(P＞0.05),but it increased in the control group after treatment(P＜0.05),and the effect of delaying white matter lesion in the trial group was better than that in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Yi'naokang Capsules combined with Donepezil Hydrochloride Tablets are superior to Donepezil alone in the treatment of PSCI,which can safely and effectively improve the cognitive function and daily living ability of patients,as well as prolong the progress of white matter lesions.

Objective:To study the incidences of complications in twins with birth weight discordance (BWD) during hospitalization.Methods:From January 2011 to December 2020, twins born in the Department of Obstetrics and hospitalized in NICU of our hospital were retrospectively studied. Twins with BWD>15% were assigned into BWDT group and BWD≤15% into twins with birth weight concordant (BWCT) group. Complications during hospitalization were compared between the two groups.Results:A total of 1 546 pairs of twins were enrolled, including 486 (31.4%) in BWDT group and 1 060 (68.6%) in BWCT group. Compared with BWCT group, BWDT group had significantly higher incidences of pulmonary surfactant (PS) utilization (47.7% vs. 42.2%), continuous positive airway pressure ≥ 24 h (40.5% vs. 35.0%), high-flow nasal cannula ≥ 24 h (22.8% vs. 16.3%), neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (52.9% vs. 47.1%), bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) (15.6% vs. 11.1%), persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (3.1% vs. 1.4%) and anemia (79.6% vs. 70.1%) (all P<0.05). After adjusting for confounding factors, the risks of pulmonary hemorrhage ( OR=2.036, 95% CI 1.119-3.703, P=0.020) and BPD ( OR=2.960, 95% CI 1.656-5.219, P=0.010) in BWDT group were higher than BWCT group. Conclusions:BWD twins has higher incidences of complications during hospitalization than BWC twins.

Objective:To investigate the clinical utility of intracavitary electrocardiogram (IC-ECG) localization technique in locating the tip of umbilical venous catheterization (UVC).Methods:From April 2020 to March 2021, premature infants admitted to the Department of Neonatology of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University and received UVC were collected for a prospective study. According to whether IC-ECG was used to determine the position of umbilical vein catheter tip during catheterization, they were divided into IC-ECG group and control group. The differences of catheterization success rate, total incidence of catheter-related complications were compared between the two groups. The relationship between characteristic P waves and the position of the catheter tip in the IC-ECG group was also analyzed.Results:A total of 104 premature infants were enrolled, including 52 cases in IC-ECG group and 52 cases in control group. The catheter placement accuracy rate of the IC-ECG group was higher than that of the control group (53.8% vs. 28.8%, P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference of the total incidence of catheter-related complications between the two groups ( P>0.05). Among the 40 cases with characteristic P wave changes in the IC-ECG group, 21 cases had normal P wave, of which 13 cases (61.9%) were with the correct position. And 19 cases had low-amplitude bimodal P waves, of which 15 cases (78.9%) were with the correct position. There was no statistically significant difference of the exact position rate of the catheter tips between the two types of P waves ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The use of IC-ECG localization technique in the process of catheterization of umbilical vein can increase the exact position rate of catheterization. Furthermore, when IC-ECG monitoring shows characteristic P wave changes to normal P wave or low-amplitude bimodal P wave, the tip of the UVC catheter may be located accurately.

Objective:To evaluate the dose calculation accuracy of cone-beam CT (CBCT) image by actual measurement method.Methods:CBCT images of 60 patients in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from September, 2021 to May, 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. CBCT images of full-fan and half-fan scanning of the head, half-fan scanning of the chest and pelvis were obtained by the Varian OBI system. Hounsfield unit - electron density (HU-ED) curves corresponding to the scanning conditions were established with CIRS electron density phantom. The radiotherapy plans were designed on the CBCT images, and the dose calculation results of the detection point were compared with the ionization chamber measurement results to analyze the dose error. Then, three-dimensional dose verification system was adopted to detect the accuracy of the CBCT image radiotherapy plans implementation process in 60 patients, and the accuracy of dose calculation was verified according to the D 99%, D mean, D 1% of target volume, D mean and D 1% of organs at risk (OAR), and the γ pass rate. Results:In point dose detection in phantom, the dose calculation errors of CBCT images in the above four scanning patterns were -1.06%±0.87%、-1.67%±0.86%, 0.91%±0.73%, -1.54%±0.90%, respectively. In dosimetric verification based on patients' CBCT image treatment plan, the mean difference of D mean, D 99%, and D 1% of planning target volume (PTV) in all scanning modes were not higher than 2%, and the D mean and D 1% differences of other OAR were not higher than 3%, except for the lens of patients in the head. The average γ values of target volume and OAR were less than 0.5 under the criteria of 3%/2 mm. Conclusions:Under the condition of correctly establishing HU-ED curves, intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) / volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) planning based on CBCT images can be employed to estimate and monitor the actual dose to target volume and OAR in adaptive radiotherapy. Full-fan scanning patterns can further improve the accuracy of dose calculation for the head of patients.

Objective:To investigate the effect of peripheral plus ring size and its potential associations with pupil diameter (PD) on axial length (AL) elongation in myopic patients after wearing orthokeratology lenses.Methods:A case-control study was conducted.One hundred eyes from 100 myopic patients who underwent orthokeratolokgy lenses fitting were enrolled at Beijing Ming Vision and Ophthalmology from January to June 2020.AL and central corneal thickness (CCT) measurements were obtained using Lenstar LS900 ocular biometry, and steep keratometry (Ks), flat keratometry (Kf) were assessed using the TMS-4 corneal topographer.The patients were divided into larger peripheral plus ring diameter (LPPRD) group consisting of 55 eyes with PD0.05). There was no significant difference in PD at different time points before and after wearing orthokeratology lenses between the two groups ( Fgroup=1.133, P=0.293; Ftime=231.427, P=0.112). Conclusions:The size of peripheral plus ring and its relationship with PD are key factors influencing the AL elongation rate in myopic patients after wearing orthokeratology lenses.With smaller PPRD, patients have slower AL elongation and better myopia control.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors of bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD)in very preterm infants(VPI), and to provide scientific basis for the prevention and treatment of BPD in VPI.Methods:A prospective multicenter study was designed to collect the clinical data of VPI in department of neonatology of 28 hospitals in 7 regions from September 2019 to December 2020.According to the continuous oxygen dependence at 28 days after birth, VPI were divided into non BPD group and BPD group, and the risk factors of BPD in VPI were analyzed.Results:A total of 2 514 cases of VPI including 1 364 cases without BPD and 1 150 cases with BPD were enrolled.The incidence of BPD was 45.7%.The smaller the gestational age and weight, the higher the incidence of BPD( P<0.001). Compared with non BPD group, the average birth age, weight and cesarean section rate in BPD group were lower, and the incidence of male infants, small for gestational age and 5-minute apgar score≤7 were higher( P<0.01). In BPD group, the incidences of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome(NRDS), hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus, retinopathy of prematurity, feeding intolerance, extrauterine growth restriction, grade Ⅲ~Ⅳ intracranial hemorrhage, anemia, early-onset and late-onset sepsis, nosocomial infection, parenteral nutrition-associated cholestasis were higher( P<0.05), the use of pulmonary surfactant(PS), postnatal hormone exposure, anemia and blood transfusion were also higher, and the time of invasive and non-invasive mechanical ventilation, oxygen use and total hospital stay were longer( P<0.001). The time of starting enteral nutrition, cumulative fasting days, days of reaching total enteral nutrition, days of continuous parenteral nutrition, days of reaching 110 kcal/(kg·d) total calorie, days of reaching 110 kcal/(kg·d) oral calorie were longer and the breastfeeding rate was lower in BPD group than those in non BPD group( P<0.001). The cumulative doses of amino acid and fat emulsion during the first week of hospitalization were higher in BPD group( P<0.001). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that NRDS, invasive mechanical ventilation, age of reaching total enteral nutrition, anemia and blood transfusion were the independent risk factors for BPD in VPI, and older gestational age was the protective factor for BPD. Conclusion:Strengthening perinatal management, avoiding premature delivery and severe NRDS, shortening the time of invasive mechanical ventilation, paying attention to enteral nutrition management, reaching whole intestinal feeding as soon as possible, and strictly mastering the indications of blood transfusion are very important to reduce the incidence of BPD in VPI.

Objective To investigate the effect of BIS-guided closed-loop target-controlled infusion on perioperative Th1/Th2 balance in elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic radical gastrectomy under different anesthesia and sedation depths. Methods We applied random number table method to divide 73 elderly patients undergoing elective laparoscopic radical gastrectomy into BIS closed-loop target-controlled infusion group with BIS value of 55(group H, n=36) and BIS value of 45(group L, n=37).Intravenous blood samples were collected immediately before surgery (T1), 2h after surgery (T2), 24h after surgery (T3) and 72h after surgery (T4).IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α and IFN-γ were determined by flow cytometry microsphere array.We compared operation duration, postoperative PACU stay time and postoperative hospitalization time between two groups. Results Compared with T1, IL-6 and IL-10 concentration in group H at T2, T3 and T4 significantly increased (P < 0.05), IL-4 and TNF-α in group H at T4 were significantly increased (P < 0.05), IL-2 and IFN-γ in group H at T2 and T4 were significantly increased (P < 0.05), the concentration of IL-6 and IL-10 in group L at T2, T3 and T4 were increased (P < 0.05), IL-2 in group L at T4 was decreased (P < 0.05), and IFN-γ/IL-6 in two groups were decreased at T2, T3 and T4(P < 0.05).Compared with group L, IL-6 and IL-10 in group H were significantly increased at T2(P < 0.05), IFN-γ/IL-6 in group H was significantly decreased (P < 0.05), IL-2 and IL-10 in group H were significantly increased at T4(P < 0.05).Operation duration, postoperative PACU stay time and postoperative hospitalization time had no statistical significance between two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion The anesthesia and sedation depth of BIS-guided closed-loop target-controlled infusion set at 45 is better than 55 in maintaining Th1/Th2 balance in elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic radical gastrectomy, but it has no obvious effect on long-term prognosis.

Primary ureteral plasmacytoid carcinomas is a rare tumor with high grade and poor diagnosis. Pathological and immunohistochemical staining play an extremely key role in diagnosis since there is no specific clinical and radiological evidence. The surgical removement is the first line treatment. Herein, we report a case of ureteral plasmacytoid carcinoma that was well controlled with multimodal therapy.
