Carotid atherosclerotic plaque is the main cause of ischemic stroke. In recent years, with the continuous innovation of novel imaging technologies, numerous classification standards for carotid plaques provide more powerful evidence for the features of carotid plaques and perioperative vascular assessment, as well as the reference for surgeons in choosing therapeutic decisions. Ultrasound is the preferred non-invasive and convenient screening tool for carotid stenosis. Invasive examinations such as CT angiography and magnetic resonance angiography are suitable for carotid stenosis patients to determine the plaque composition and stability, which can guide surgical decision-making and help to prevent serious cardiovascular and cerebrovascular adverse events. Advances in the treatment of carotid artery stenosis have focused on the improvement and innovation of vascular interventional devices and surgical procedures, including double-layer stents, coated stents and transcarotid artery revascularization. As technology continues to evolve, molecular imaging and more minimally invasive screening as well as therapies will be the way forward.

Objective:To explore the latent classes of parental feeding behaviors in preschool children, and to examine the relationship between potential types of parental feeding behaviors and parental depression status.Methods:From May to July 2021, parents of preschoolers from eight kindergartens in Shanghai were recruited and investigated.A paper-based questionnaire consisting of the Chinese preschooler’s caregivers’ feeding behavior scale (CPCFBS) and the center for epidemiological studies depression scale (CESD-10) was employed.Finally, a total of 1 006 valid questionnaires were retrieved.Mplus 8.0 and SPSS 26.0 were used for statistical analysis.The latent class analysis was used to identify subgroups of parents based on their feeding practices.Multinomial Logistic regression was used to examine the relevant influencing factors.Results:The feeding behaviors of parental of preschool children could be divided into four potential categories: " high responsiveness and high non-responsiveness type" (24.55%), " low responsiveness and high non-responsiveness type" (27.44%), " high responsiveness and low non-responsiveness type" (28.33%) and " low responsiveness and low non-responsiveness type" (19.68%). The parents with depression status were less likely to be categorized as " high responsiveness and low non-responsiveness type" ( OR=0.386, 95% CI: 0.218-0.684). The parents with older children were more likely to be categorized as " low responsiveness and low non-responsiveness type" ( OR=1.318, 95% CI: 1.039-1.672). Conclusion:The feeding practices of parents of preschool children can be categorized into four latent classes.The parents with depression status are more likely to adopt non-responsive feeding practice than responsive feeding practice.Actively paying attention to and improving the depression status of parents may help the feeder to adopt scientific feeding behavior.

Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a common and serious complication in long-term dialysis patients, who often experience multiple symptoms and a poor quality of life. Parathyroidectomy (PTX) is the best choice for severe SHPT patients with poor drug treatment. At present, the follow-up after PTX has not received sufficient attention, and the assessment of patients' clinical symptoms and quality of life is not yet adequate. In view of this, we systematically combed the changes and influencing factors of patients' quality of life and related symptoms after surgery, in order to provide reference for the practice and research of symptom management of such patients in the future.

Objective: To explore the prevalence of body weight misperception and its influencing factors among female nursing students in Shanghai. Methods: A total of 600 female nursing students from 4 medical colleges in Shanghai were recruited by a convenient sampling method and investigated weight perception and associated factors through online questionnaires. Results: Only 44.50%(267) participants accurately described their body weight,and the proportion of body weight overestimation was 53.83%(323). The consistency between perceived weight status and actual weight status was poor (Kappa=0.20). Factors affecting weight overestimation among female nursing students were personal actual weight levels (OR=0.09-15.02), self-recognized weight level among peers (OR=17.85-202.67), the influence of female image in the media on weight loss ideas (OR=3.21-6.14), living area (OR=1.12-2.55) and stereotypes of obesity (OR=0.98)(P<0.05). Conclusion Female nursing students have low rate of accurate estimation of body weight and tend to overestimate.

Objective:To discuss the clinical treatment for arteriosclerosis obliterans combined with acute thrombosis (ASOCAT) of lower extremities.Methods:The treatment methods and results of 30 patients with ASOCAT admitted to our center from Jan 2009 to May 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:The course of acute thrombosis in 30 patients was (9.5±5.2) days, and the average course of ASO was (2.1±1.4) years. Among 30 patients, 13 patients had aortoiliac occlusion (type Ⅰ), and 17 patients had femoropopliteal lesion (type Ⅱ). Twenty-eight patients underwent endovascular treatment, 1 had hybrid operation, and 1 was given aorto-bilateral femoral bypass. One patient died perioperatively. 24 patients were followed up for (16.3±16.1) months. One died during follow-up.Two patients underwent above-knee amputation within 6 months. Two patients had distal superficial femoral artery reocclusion within 12 months. The restenosis/reocclusion rates within 12 months of type Ⅰ and Ⅱ patients were 12.5% and 21.4%, respectively. The 6/12-month amputation-free survival rates for type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ were 87.5%/87.5% and 92.8%/85.7%, respectively.Conclusion:Reasonable and active use of open surgery, endovascular treatment or hybrid operation could achieve acceptable outcomes in patients with ASOCAT.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of transplantation of purified CD34 + cells (PCCs) in treatment of critical limb ischemia (CLI) caused by thromboangiitis obliterans (TAO).Methods From May 2009 to June 2015,34 TAO-induced-CLI cases underwent PCCs transplantation.None of these patients were eligible for surgical or endovascular revascularization.G-CSF was subcutaneously injected for 5 days before peripheral CD34 + cells were isolated,purified and intramuscularly injected in the limbs.Patients were regularly follow-up.Results Technical success was achieved in all cases.The mean number of transplanted cells was (7.5 ± 2.4) × 105/kg.The follow-up was accomplished in 32 cases,ranging from 6 to 79 months (mean 45 ±24 months),and two patients were lost.Wong-Baker FACES pain rating scale score significantly decreased from 8.0 ±2.0(4-10)to 2.2 ±3.1 (P ＜0.05) at 1 month.The Peak pain-free walking time improved from (4.0 ± 2.0) min to (13.5 ± 5.3) min (P ＜ 0.05) at 3 months and (19.0 ± 3.1) min (P ＜ 0.05) at 6 months.The ankle-brachial index increased from 0.42 ± 0.20 to 0.50 ± 0.10 (P ＜ 0.05) at 3 months and 0.52 ± 0.11 (P ＜ 0.05) at 6 months,respectively.Transcutaneous partial oxygen pressure rose from (25 ± 11) mmHg to (48 ± 11) mmHg(P ＜ 0.05) at 3 months and (58 ± 10) mmHg (P ＜ 0.001) at 6 months,respectively.Ulcers healed in 21 out of 22 patients at (5 ± 4) months.The overall amputation-free survival rate was 94.1％ at 6 months and 91.2％ at 48 months.No major adverse events were observed perioperatively or postoperatively.Conclusions Transplantation of PCCs could yield safe,satisfactory and durable treatment outcomes in patients with TAO-induced-CLI.

Objective: To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Endurant stent graft for abdominal aortic aneurysm cases with proximal neck length <10 mm. Methods: This study was a retrospective analysis. From January 2010 to May 2015, 22 consecutive abdominal aortic aneurysm patients with proximal neck length <10 mm were treated with endovascular aortic repair by Endurant stent graft in Department of Vascular Surgery, Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University. There were 19 (86.3%) male cases, aging from 57 to 84 years. All patients underwent preoperative CT angiography and the anatomic parameters of abdominal aortic aneurysm were measured. All patients performed standard endovascular aortic repair first and if there was obvious proximal typeⅠ endoleak, the CUFF or the chimney technology were applied to observed the perioperative technical and the clinical success rate. During follow-up, the incidence of adverse events and the reintervention rate were observed. Results: These 22 cases had proximal neck length 5 to 9 mm with the average of (7.2±1.4) mm. Immediate endoleak occurred in 5 patients with 4 cases of proximal typeⅠ endoleak, 3 cases were implanted proximal CUFF, 1 case implanted CUFF and left renal artery chimney. One case died perioperatively, the clinical success rate was 95.4%, the technical success rate was 77.3%. During the follow-up of 6 to 54 months, there was 1 case with delayed proximal type-1 endoleak, during operation the patient had no endoleak, but disappeared 6 months later without further intervention. So the incidence of adverse event was 4.5% and reintervention rate was 0. Conclusion The Endurant stent graft for abdominal aortic aneurysm cases with proximal neck length < 10 mm is safe and effective.

Objective To generalize and summarize the interventions of community health workers for overweight or obese adults and its effect evaluation,so as to provide references for advancing the work of adult weight management.Methods Literatures published in PubMed,CINAHL,EMBASE,Elsevier,VIP, Wanfang data from 1996 to March 2016 were retrieved. The retrieval formula was (facilitate OR promote OR improve OR influence OR intervene) AND (nurses OR physicians OR doctors OR health professionals OR medical staff) AND (obesity OR overweight OR weight OR body).Results A total of 13 papers were included involving 11 original researches and 2 systematic reviews. Those papers prompted that the process of weight management carried out by medical staff could be intervened from the level of doctors (training,setting up cues), patients (perfecting and handing out health education material),organization (multi-department cooperation, enhancing supervision) to improve the level and behavior of weight management carried out by medical staff. The indicators of effect evaluation included medical staff indicators (knowledge,skills,behaviors,attitudes and beliefs of weight management) and patient indicators (clinical indexes,health behaviors,attitudes,beliefs). Conclusions The adult weight management can be enhanced by multi-level intervention. At the same time, the intervention effect can be reflected comprehensively by synthesizing evaluation indicators in many aspects.
