Anomalous aortic origin of the coronary artery(AAOCA) refers to the abnormal initiation, route, or distribution of coronary arteries, which is generally believed to be caused by abnormal or incomplete development of embryonic coronary arteries, and is a rare congenital cardiovascular malformation. It can exist independently without other congenital heart disease. With the development of medical science and people's understanding of AAOCA, more and more AAOCA has been detected, and its clinical significance has attracted more and more attention. Based on abnormal coronary artery opening, malignant or potential contorts can cause long-term blood flow dynamic change, appear abnormal blood vessel hardening of the arteries, at the same time due to walk in the pulmonary artery and the ascending aorta between two vessels, vulnerable to the extrusion of large blood vessels, which caused a temporary blood flow in coronary artery interruption, can cause acute angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, exercise-induced cardiac syncope. This review focuses on the anatomy, diagnosis and treatment of coronary artery abnormalities arising from aorta.

Objective To analyze influencing factors of paclitaxel coated ballon(PCB)on long-term restenosis in patients with severe subpatellar artery lesions in type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM),and to construct a prediction model.Methods A total of 268 T2DM patients with severe infra-popliteal artery disease and received PCB treatment were selected.Patients were followed up for 1 year after treatment.Patients with target vessel restenosis were included in the observation group,and the other patients were included in the control group.Clinical data of two groups were analyzed.Multivariable Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze influencing factors of long-term restenosis in T2DM patients with severe infra-knee arterial disease,and a nomogram prediction model was constructed.Results A total of 260 patients(97.00%)completed the follow-up,and the incidence of restenosis was 13.85%(36/260).Both univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age,coexisting coronary heart disease,Trans-Atlantic Inter-Society Consensus(TASC)Ⅱ classification,Fontaine staging,glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c)and low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)were independent influencing factors for the occurrence of long-term restenosis in T2DM patients with severe infra-popliteal artery disease(P<0.05).The risk factor with the highest score in the constructed nomogram prediction model was HbA1c,followed by age,LDL-C,TASCⅡ classification,Fontaine stage and coronary heart disease.According to the column chart,the total score was 210 points,and the probability of long-term restenosis was 90%.The discrimination of the nomogram model was 0.866,with a Brier score of 0.081 and a calibration slope of 0.733.When the risk threshold was 0.15 to 1.0,the net benefit rate of long-term restenosis in T2DM patients with severe infra-popliteal artery disease was greater than that of individual evaluation.The smaller the risk threshold,the greater the net benefit rate.The benefit was the best when the threshold reached 0.23.Conclusion The influencing factors for long-term restenosis in T2DM patients with severe subknee artery disease treated by PCB include age,combined coronary heart disease,TASCⅡ grade,Fontaine stage,HbA1c and LDL-C.The prediction model based on the above influencing factors has important value in predicting long-term restenosis in patients.

Objective:To determine the risk factors of reoperation and mortality after complete atrioventricular septal defect repair, and to evaluate the medium and long-term prognosis.Methods:From March 2008 to March 2022, a total of 266 children were selected from the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Nanjing Children's Hospital, who underwent the complete atrioventricular septal defect repair. Exclusion of children with conotrucal anomaly such as tetralogy of Fallot, transposition of the great arteries, and right ventricular double outlet. Demographic characteristics, surgical data, postoperative follow-up and associated risk factors were analyzed.Results:All the children were repaired with modified single-piece method for the first time, and 26 children were reoperated because of severe left atrioventricular valve regurgitation, left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and atrioventricular block. The 1-year, 3-year and 5-year overall survival rate and freedom from reoperation rate of all children were (98.1±0.8)%, (97.3±1.0)%, (96.2±1.2)%, (96.6±1.1)%, (93.9±1.5)% and (92.2±1.7)%, respectively. A total of 11 (42.3%) early reoperations and 15 (57.7%) late reoperations were performed, of which 1-year, 3-year and 5-year survival rates were (92.3±5.2)%, (82.1±8.3)% and (76.6±9.4)% respectively. Multifactorial analysis showed that age <3 months and left atrioventricular regurgitation >grade 2 at 24 hours postoperatively were independent risk factors for reoperation, whereas age <3 months and experience of reoperation were independent risk factors for death of children.Conclusion:Complete atrial septal defects have excellent surgical outcomes, but some children still require reoperation, and age <3 months and postoperative left atrioventricular valve regurgitation(LAVVR)>2 grades remain important predictors of their surgical prognosis.

Bivalves are species-rich mollusks with prominent protective roles in coastal ecosystems.Across these ancient lineages,colony-founding larvae anchor themselves either by byssus produc-tion or by cemented attachment.The latter mode of sessile life is strongly molded by left-right shell asymmetry during larval development of Ostreoida oysters such as Crassostrea hongkongensis.Here,we sequenced the genome of C.hongkongensis in high resolution and compared it to reference bivalve genomes to unveil genomic determinants driving cemented attachment and shell asymmetry.Importantly,loss of the homeobox gene Antennapedia(Antp)and broad expansion of lineage-specific extracellular gene families are implicated in a shift from byssal to cemented attachment in bivalves.Comparative transcriptomic analysis shows a conspicuous divergence between left-right asymmetrical C.hongkongensis and symmetrical Pinctada fucata in their expression profiles.Especially,a couple of orthologous transcription factor genes and lineage-specific shell-related gene families including that encoding tyrosinases are elevated,and may cooperatively govern asymmet-rical shell formation in Ostreoida oysters.

BACKGROUND: Pain and cartilage destruction caused by osteoarthritis (OA) is a major challenge in clinical treatment.Traditional intra-articular injection of hyaluronic acid (HA) can relieve the disease, but limited by the difficulty of longterm maintenance of efficacy. METHODS: In this study, an injectable and self-healing hydrogel was synthesized by in situ crosslinking of N-carboxyethyl chitosan (N-chitosan), adipic acid dihydrazide (ADH), and hyaluronic acid–aldehyde (HA-ALD). RESULTS: This supramolecular hydrogel sustains good biocompatibility for chondrocytes. Intra-articular injection of this novel hydrogel can significantly alleviate the local inflammation microenvironment in knee joints, through inhibiting the inflammatory cytokines (such as TNF-a, IL-1b, IL-6 and IL-17) in the synovial fluid and cartilage at 2- and even 12-weeks post-injection. Histological and behavioral test indicated that hydrogel injection protected cartilage destruction and relieved pain in OA rats, in comparison to HA injection. CONCLUSION This kind of novel hydrogel, which is superior to the traditional HA injection, reveals a great potential for the treatment of OA.

Objective:To investigate the common types, surgical treatment and effects of tracheal stenosis in children.Methods:A total of 23 children with tracheal stenosis in our hospital from December 2017 to August 2020 were retrospectively reviewed, including 14 males and 9 females. The mean age at operation was(8.9±5.8)months(range: 2-3 months) and the mean weight was(6.4±2.3)kg(range: 4.2-10.5 kg). The common types of tracheal stenosis were complete tracheal ring in 9 children, tracheomalacia in 10 and subglottic membranous annular hyperplasia in 4. The type of congenital heart diseases included 10 patients of pulmonary artery sling, 1 of tetralogy of Fallot, 5 of ventricular septal defect, 1 of pulmonary atresia, and 1 of right aortic arch with aberrant left subclavian artery. Slide tracheoplasty was performed in 9 patients, external splint in 8, endotracheal stent in 2 and tracheal dilation in 4. All children were followed up after 1, 3, 6, and 12 months of operation with CT and bronchoscopy.Results:There was 1 death in all 23 patients and the mortality was 4.3%, which died of granulation tissue hyperplasia after slide tracheoplasty. Reoperation was performed in 1 patient with endotracheal stent. All patients were followed for 1 to 24 months. Clinical symptoms of tracheal stenosis disappeared and the results of CT and bronchoscopy were satisfied.Conclusion:Slide tracheoplasty is the effective surgical method for complete trachea ring. 3D printing bioresorbable external splint is a promising method for the treatment of tracheomalacia.
