[Objective] To evaluate the efficacy and safety of sacral neuromodulation (SNM) in the treatment of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) complicated with underactive bladder (UAB) who respond poorly to transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). [Methods] A retrospective analysis was performed on 10 patients with BPH and UAB treated with TURP by the same surgeon in Zhongda Hospital Southeast University during Jan.2018 and Jan.2023.The residual urine volume was not significantly relieved after operation, and the maximum urine flow rate and urine volume per discharge were not significantly improved.All patients underwent phase I SNM, and urinary diaries were recorded before and after surgery to observe the average daily frequency of urination, volume per urination, maximum urine flow rate, and residual urine volume. [Results] The operation time was (97.6±11.2) min.During the postoperative test of 2-4 weeks, if the residual urine volume reduction by more than 50% was deemed as effective, SNM was effective in 6 patients (60.0%). Compared with preoperative results, the daily frequency of urination [(20.2±3.8) times vs. (13.2±3.2) times], volume per urination [(119.2±56.7) mL vs. (246.5±59.2) mL], maximum urine flow rate [(8.7±1.5) mL/s vs. (16.5±2.6) mL/s], and residual urine volume [(222.5±55.0) mL vs. (80.8±16.0) mL] were significantly improved, with statistical significance (P<0.05). There were no complications such as bleeding, infection, fever or pain.The 6 patients who had effective outcomes successfully completed phase II surgery, and the fistula was removed.During the follow-up of 1 year, the curative effect was stable, and there were no complications such as electrode displacement, incision infection, or pain in the irritation sites.The residual urine volume of the other 4 unsuccessful patients did not improve significantly, and the electrodes were removed and the vesicostomy tube was retained. [Conclusion] SNM is safe and effective in the treatment of BPH with UAB patients with poor curative effects after TURP.

Objective:To evaluate the feasibility and clinical effectiveness of placing a nasointestinal ileus tube (NTI) during extensive adhesive bowel obstruction (ABO) surgery.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical and follow-up data of 60 patients with extensive ABO admitted to the Department of General Surgery of Daxing District Hospital of Capital Medical University from April 2019 to April 2021, of which 30 patients underwent intraoperative NIT intraintestinal alignment (observation group) and 30 patients who did not undergo NIT intraintestinal alignment (control group) during the same period. There were 12 males and 18 females in the observation group. There were 16 males and 14 females in the control group. The operation time, gastrointestinal function recovery time, discharge time, total effective rate and postoperative complication rate were compared between the two groups, and the quantitative data of the recurrence rate of intestinal obstruction at 24 months after surgery were expressed as mean ± standard deviation ( ± s), and the t-test was used for comparison between groups. Numerological data were presented as cases (percentage) [ n (%)], and chi-square tests were used for comparison between groups. Results:All patients were successfully completed the surgery and discharged from the hospital. There was no statistically significant difference in total effective rate between the control group and the observation group( χ2=3.16, P=0.237). The surgical time in the observation group was slightly longer than that in the control group [(110.6±4.6) min vs (94.3±2.5) min, t=17.27, P=0.001]. The recovery time of gastrointestinal function and hospitalization time in the observation group were shorter than those in the control group[(8.13±1.00) d vs (8.70±0.70) d, t=2.53, P=0.014; (12.83±1.57) d vs (13.67±1.03) d, t=0.03, P=0.018]. The incidence of postoperative complications was lower than that in the control group (10% vs 30%, P=0.028), and the difference was statistically significant. Conclusion:Intraoperative application of NIT is safe and effective, and can significantly reduce the recurrence rate of postoperative intestinal obstruction.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and drug resistance of Klebsiella pneumoniae infections at different systems, providing laboratory reference for the rational use of antibiotics in clinical practice.Methods:The clinical characteristics and drug resistance of patients with Klebsiella pneumoniae infections in respiratory, urinary, hematologic, and other systems who received treatment in Wuzhou Red Cross Hospital from January 2015 to December 2021 were analyzed.Results:From 2015 to 2021, there were 3 496 cases of Klebsiella pneumoniae infections in the hospital, among which the respiratory system was most affected with 2 250 strains (64.34%). The sex ratio of patients with Klebsiella pneumoniae infections at different systems was statistically significant ( χ2 = 266.77, P < 0.001). The respiratory system and hematological system were more commonly infected by Klebsiella pneumoniae in men, while the urinary system was more commonly infected in women. The sex ratio of patients with Klebsiella pneumoniae infections at other systems were similar. The age distribution of patients with Klebsiella pneumoniae infections at different systems was significantly different ( χ2 = 176.54, P < 0.001). Klebsiella pneumoniae infections of the respiratory, urinary, and hematological systems were the most common in people aged > 60-80 years, while Klebsiella pneumoniae infections in other systems were mainly found in people aged > 18-60 years. There were significant differences in the distribution of departments among different Klebsiella pneumoniae infection systems ( χ2 = 1 415.30, P < 0.001). The ICU had the highest incidence of Klebsiella pneumoniae infections in the respiratory system, while the department of internal medicine had the highest incidence of Klebsiella pneumoniae infections in the urinary and hematological systems, and the department of surgery had the highest incidence of Klebsiella pneumoniae infections in other parts of the body. The resistance rate of Klebsiella pneumoniae to common antibiotics for the hematologic system was lower than that of the other three infection systems. For infections in the respiratory system, urinary system, and other body parts, the resistance rates of Klebsiella pneumoniae to amikacin, meropenem, imipenem, and piperacillin/tazobactam were all below 10%, while the resistance rate to tobramycin was below 20%, and the resistance rate to cephalosporins was around 30%. Conclusion:The proportion of Klebsiella pneumoniae infections in different body parts varies by gender, age, and department. For Klebsiella pneumoniae infections in the hematological system, the resistance rate to commonly used antibiotics is lower than that for infections in the other three systems. In contrast, Klebsiella pneumoniae infections in the respiratory system, urinary system, and other systems have a particularly high resistance rate to third- and fourth-generation cephalosporins but are still sensitive to piperacillin/tazobactam and carbapenem antibiotics.

Objective:To analyse the differences of related genes between serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) positive gastric cancer and AFP negative gastric cancer, and the relationship between related genes and prognosis of serum AFP positive gastric cancer.Methods:A total of 1 144 gastric cancer patients undergoing surgery at the 940th Hospital , Joint Logistic Support Force, People's Liberation Army from Jan 2013 to Dec 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Of them, 47 cases were of AFP positive gastric cancer, and 47 serum AFP negative case were obtained by proper matching method.Results:Forty-seven patients with serum AFP positive gastric cancer, accounting for 4.1% of all gastric cancer patients during the same period. The prognosis of serum AFP negative gastric cancer is better than that of serum AFP positive gastric cancer. The 1-, 3- and 5-year cumulative survival rates were 95.6% vs. 63.8%, 48.9% vs. 23.4% and 26.7% vs. 14.9%, respectively. There were statistical differences in the immunohistochemistry of AFP, HER2, VEGF, GPC3, SALL4, P53 and Ki67 between the two groups ( χ2=67.758, P<0.001; χ2=4.004, P=0.044; χ2=19.299, P<0.001; χ2=5.232, P=0.022; χ2=6.359, P=0.012; χ2=6.224, P=0.013; χ2=5.232, P=0.022). The more co-positive expressions of AFP, GPC3, VEGF and SALL4, the more likely they were to affect pTNM stage, vascular invasion and liver metastasis ( χ2=5.328, P=0.021; P=0.013; χ2=5.887, P=0.015; χ2=3.923, P=0.048). Univariate and multivariate survival analysis of serum AFP positive gastric cancer showed:AFP, GPC3, VEGF and SALL4 were risk factors for AFP positive gastric cancer ( HR=3.700, P=0.036; HR=4.237, P=0.003; HR=3.916, P=0.004; HR=3.412, P=0.001). Conclusions:Serum AFP positive gastric cancer is a rare and highly invasive special type of gastric cancer. AFP, GPC3, VEGF and SALL4 are overexpressed in serum AFP positive gastric cancer, which is correlated with tumor stage, vascular invasion and liver metastasis. The final diagnosis of serum AFP positive gastric cancer still needs immunohistochemical examination. Preoperative serum AFP level is an important basis for AFP positive gastric cancer screening and AFP immunohistochemical examination.

This article presents a case of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in a pregnant woman caused by coronary artery dissection. The 41-year-old patient had undergone cardiac valve surgery at the age of 1 and had no risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes, smoking, alcohol use, or a family history of coronary artery disease. At 31 +1 weeks of gestation, she experienced sudden chest pain for 4 hours and was emergently referred to Peking University First Hospital on June 1, 2021. Electrocardiogram revealed ST-segment elevation in leads I, aVL, and V 2 to V 6. Biochemical assays showed elevated levels of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I and creatine kinase-MB. Echocardiography indicated segmental ventricular wall motion abnormalities (apical) and reduced left ventricular function, confirming the diagnosis of acute anterior wall STEMI. The patient promptly underwent emergency coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention and confirmed coronary artery dissection. Postoperative care included antiplatelet, anticoagulation, and supportive treatment. At 34 +3 weeks of gestation, with the condition of acute anterior wall STEMI being relatively stable, a cesarean section was successfully performed. Regular cardiology follow-ups were scheduled postpartum, and cardiac function was normal in two years after discharge.

Objective To investigate the significance of alkaline phosphatase to albumin ratio(APAR)in the diagnosis and prognosis evaluation of trauma sepsis in patients with multiple trauma.Methods A total of 130 patients with multiple trauma treated in this hospital from January 2021 to October 2023 were selected as subjects.According to the presence or absence of trauma sepsis,they were divided into sepsis group(82 cases)and non-sepsis group(48 cases).The patients with traumatic sepsis were followed up for 28 d and divided into survival group(67 cases)and death group(15 cases)according to the prognosis.The levels of alkaline phos-phatase and albumin in peripheral blood were detected by automatic biochemical analyzer,and APAR was cal-culated.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of alkaline phosphatase,albumin,and APAR for trauma sepsis in patients with multiple trauma.Multivariate Logistic re-gression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of the prognosis of trauma sepsis in patients with multiple trauma.Results The levels of alkaline phosphatase and APAR in sepsis group were higher than those in non-sepsis group,and the level of albumin was lower than that in non-sepsis group(P＜0.05).The area under the curve(95％CI)of alkaline phosphatase,albumin,and APAR for predicting traumatic sepsis in patients with multiple trauma were 0.753(0.702-0.801),0.849(0.798-0.900),and 0.901(0.850-0.952),respectively.The cut-off values were 142.12 U/L,27.89 g/L and 5.24,the specificity were 55.24％,66.16％and 85.43％,and the sensitivity were 91.67％,91.67％and 84.12％,respectively.The levels of alka-line phosphatase and APAR in the death group were higher than those in the survival group,and the level of albumin was lower than that in the survival group(P＜0.05).Compared with the survival group,the death group had significantly higher proportion of patients aged ≥ 60 years,sequential organ failure score,acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅰ(APACHEⅡ)score,and levels of C-reactive protein,blood lactic acid,and serum creatinine(P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that old age(OR=2.330,95％CI 1.568-3.462),high APACHE Ⅱ score(OR=2.056,95％CI 1.448-2.921),high expression of alkaline phosphatase(OR=2.479,95％CI 1.652-3.720),low expression of albumin(OR=2.525,95％CI 1.543-3.288),and high APAR(OR=2.849,95％CI 1.848-4.394)were the influencing factors of the prog-nosis of trauma sepsis in patients with multiple trauma(P＜0.05).Conclusion APAR can be used as a bio-logical index to predict trauma sepsis in patients with multiple trauma,and the abnormal increase of APAR is associated with the prognosis of trauma sepsis.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of AcoStream peripheral thrombus aspiration system combined with catheter-directed thrombolysis in the treatment of lower extremity deep vein thrombosis.Methods:The clinical data of 16 lower extremity deep vein thrombosis cases treated with AcoStream peripheral thrombus aspiration system combined with catheter-directed thrombolysis, admitted to the authors′ hospital from May 2022 to November 2022, were retrospectively analyzed. The differences in circumferential diameter between the affected limb and the healthy side, venous patency score, thrombus clearance grade and intraoperative blood loss were observed and compared. The Villalta score was used during the follow up. Paired sample t-test and Wilcoxon rank sum test were used to compare the changes in the observed indicators before and after treatment to evaluate the efficacy. Results:Treatment were successfully performed in all patients. Before treatment, the circumference differences between the affected and unaffected thighs and calves were (3.69±0.97) and (3.34±0.75)cm, respectively, the venous patency score of the affected side was 8(7.25,9) points. After treatment, the circumference differences between the affected and unaffected thighs and calves were (0.81±0.68) and (0.84±0.70)cm, respectively. The venous patency score of the affected side was 1(0,1)points, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.001). Grade Ⅲ thrombus clearance was achieved in 7 patients, grade Ⅱ thrombus clearance was achieved in 9 patients. The average blood loss during thrombus aspiration was (133.1±12.0) ml. Following up for 6 months, the Villalta score was 0(0,1.75) points. Conclusion:Acostream peripheral thrombus aspiration system combined with catheter-directed thrombolysis is safe and effective for the treatment of lower extremity deep venous thrombosis, with satisfactory short-term efficacy and high clinical application value.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is characterized by high postoperative recurrence and mortality rates. In recent years, researchers have identified a significant correlation between microvascular invasion (MVI) and early postoperative recurrence and metastasis of HCC, making it a focal point of HCC research. Accurate preoperative prediction of MVI occurrence and the implementation of relevant interventions (such as expanded resection) could provide substantial benefits to patients. This study analyzes global research over the past decade on MVI predictive indicators based on tumor biological characteristics, genetic measurements, imaging examinations, and tumor markers. The aim is to use these predictive indicators to objectively forecast the occurrence of MVI, thereby aiding in preoperative individual assessments and enhancing treatment plans.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of maxillary distraction osteogenesis (DO) and Le FortⅠ osteotomy (LFⅠ) in patients with complex cleft lip and palate.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted, clinical data were collected involving patients with complex cleft lip and palate who required combined orthodontic and orthognathic treatment and were treated at the Stomatological Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from January 2015 to December 2022. Patients were divided into three groups based on the surgical method used for the maxilla: total maxillary distraction (TMD, group A), anterior maxillary distraction (AMD, group B), and Le Fort Ⅰ osteotomy (LFⅠ, group C). Cone-beam CT scans and lateral cephalograms were obtained preoperatively and at 3 months postoperatively. Three-dimensional reconstructions were performed using Mimics 21.0 and Dolphin Imaging 11.9 software to evaluate changes in craniofacial morphology and airway. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS 25.0. Intragroup comparisons before and after surgery were performed using the Wilcoxon rank sum test, and intergroup comparisons among the three groups were conducted using the Kruskal-Wallis H test. Results:A total of 15 patients were included, with 5 patients in each group. The cohort comprised 8 males and 7 females, aged between 15 and 21 years. There were no statistically significant differences in the distribution of gender, age, or cleft lip and palate classification among the three groups ( P>0.05). Postoperatively, all three groups showed improvement in maxillary hypoplasia. Compared to preoperative measurements, the angle formed by the points A (subspinale), N (nasion), and B (supramentale) (ANB angle) increased in all three groups (all P<0.05). The vertical distance from point A to the nasion perpendicular (A-Nperp) increased in groups A and B ( P<0.05 for both) but not in group C ( P>0.05). The area of the alveolar gap showed an increasing trend in all three groups ( P>0.05). The mandibular plane angle (FMA) decreased postoperatively in group B but showed an increasing trend in the other two groups, though the differences were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Postoperative airway volume increased or showed an increasing trend in groups A ( P<0.05) and B ( P>0.05) but decreased in group C ( P>0.05). Intergroup comparisons showed significant differences in the angle formed by the sella (S), nasion (N), and point A (SNA angle) and the vertical distance from the anterior nasal spine to the coronal plane (ANS-CP) ( P<0.05). Group A had significantly larger SNA angles and ANS-CP values than group B, and the ANS-CP value in group A was significantly larger than in group C (all P<0.05). There were no other statistically significant differences among the groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:For patients with severe maxillary hypoplasia due to complex cleft lip and palate, TMD can correct sagittal discrepancies between the upper and lower jaws, increase upper airway volume, but may potentially enlarge the alveolar gap area and increase vertical height of the maxilla. AMD result in less change in maxillary position compared to TMD and is mainly used for patients with severe maxillary dental crowding, needing increased arch length, having minor sagittal discrepancies, or with preexisting velopharyngeal dysfunction. LFⅠ result in changes in maxillary position similar to AMD but less than TMD, making it suitable for patients with moderate maxillary hypoplasia and mild maxillary dental crowding. The advantage of LFⅠ lies in its precise postoperative occlusal design and accurate three-dimensional movement of the jaw.
