Objective To discuss the application of the"rotating guidewire and correcting the filter recovery hook direction technique"("rotation-correction loop technique"for short),a technique invented by the authors in clinical practice,in the retrieval of complex inferior vena cava filter(IVCF),and to discuss its technical skills and advantages.Methods The clinical data of 417 patients carrying an IVCF,who were admitted to the Department of Vascular Surgery of Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University of China to retrieve IVCF between January 2022 and December 2022,were retrospectively analyzed.Taking the time spent on the retrieval of IVCF and the intraoperative radiation dose as the evaluation indicators,the advantages and disadvantages of the standard filter retrieval technique,the"rotation-correction loop technique"and the other loop-assisted techniques were compared.Results Both the intraoperative radiation dose and the time spent on the retrieval of IVCF using"rotation-correction loop technique"were remarkably lower than those of other loop-assisted techniques(P＜0.000 1).Conclusion For the retrieval of complex IVCF,especially for the IVCF which is heavily tilted and/or its recovered hook is attached to the vascular wall,the use of"rotation-correction loop technique"can shorten the time spent on the the retrieval of IVCF and reduce the intraoperative radiation dose.This technique carries high safety and practicability,the device is simple and it can be manipulated by single physician,which is conducive to clinical application and promotion.(J Intervent Radiol,2024,33:289-294)

Purpose: The prognosis of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT) is extremely poor, and systemic therapy is currently the mainstream treatment. This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of lenvatinib combined with anti–programmed cell death-1 antibodies and transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (triple therapy) in patients with HCC and PVTT. Materials and Methods: This retrospective multicenter study included patients with HCC and PVTT who received triple therapy, were aged between 18 and 75 years, classified as Child-Pugh class A or B, and had at least one measurable lesion. The overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rates, and disease control rates were analyzed to assess efficacy. Treatment-related adverse events were analyzed to assess safety profiles. Results: During a median follow-up of 11.23 months (range, 3.07 to 34.37 months), the median OS was greater than 24 months, and median PFS was 12.53 months. The 2-year OS rate was 54.9%. The objective response rate and disease control rate were 69.8% (74/106) and 84.0% (89/106), respectively; 20.8% (22/106) of the patients experienced grade 3/4 treatment-related adverse events and no treatment-related deaths occurred. The conversion rate to liver resection was 31.1% (33/106), with manageable postoperative complications. The median OS was not reached in the surgery group, but was 19.08 months in the non-surgery group. The median PFS in the surgery and non-surgery groups were 20.50 and 9.00 months, respectively. Conclusion Triple therapy showed promising survival benefits and high response rates in patients with HCC and PVTT, with manageable adverse effects.

【Objective】 To explore the relationship between the storage time of leukodepleted red blood cells and transfusion adverse reactions by analyzing the occurrence of transfusion adverse reactions of patients after leukodepleted red blood cells transfusion from four hospitals. 【Methods】 By using the electronic medical record management system, the collection and transfusion dates of leukodepleted red blood cells from four hospitals in Enshi Prefecture from 2018 to 2022, as well as the information on transfusion adverse reactions, were retrieved. 【Results】 From 2018 to 2022, a total of 697 61 bags of leukodepleted red blood cells were transfused in four hospitals, resulting in 166 cases of transfusion adverse reactions, among which 93 were allergic reactions, 63 were non hemolytic febrile reactions, and 10 were others, with a total incidence rate of transfusion adverse reactions at 0.24%. The average storage time of leukodepleted red blood cells with and without transfusion adverse reactions was (20.25±6.31) and (19.88±5.50) days, respectively. With a storage time of 7 days as the threshold, the incidence of transfusion adverse reactions was the lowest for a storage time of 15~21 days. The incidence of transfusion adverse reactions of leukodepleted red blood cells in two groups (with storage days ≤21 days and >21 days) was not statistically significant(P>0.05). 【Conclusion】 Allergic reactions were the main type of transfusion adverse reaction caused by leukodepleted red blood cells, and the incidence of transfusion adverse reactions decreased and then increased with the prolongation of the storage time of leukodepleted red blood cells. There was no significant difference in the incidence of transfusion adverse reactions with leukodepleted red blood cells stored for ≤ 21 days and >21 days.

Objective:To explore the relationship between the maternal dietary patterns during pregnancy and the early childhood BMI change trajectory.Methods:The subjects were 1 241 pairs of pregnant women and their children in Ma'anshan maternal and infant health cohort. The food frequency questionnaire was used to collect the maternal diet data during pregnancy. The cohort children were followed up at birth, month 3, 6, 12, 18 and 24, respectively. The body height and weight data of the cohort children were collected. The principal component analysis was used to determine the categories of maternal dietary patterns during pregnancy, group-based multi-trajectory modeling was used to fit the early childhood BMI change trajectory, and the multiple classification logistic regression model was used to evaluate the relationship between the maternal dietary patterns during pregnancy and the early childhood BMI change trajectory.Results:The maternal dietary patterns during pregnancy included protein type, healthy type, vegetarian type, processing type and beverage type, which could explain 50.04% of the total dietary variation. Among them, the protein type, main dietary pattern, could explain 21.34% of the total dietary variation. The early childhood BMI change trajectory was from thinnish stature to average stature, then to mild obesity, accounting for 42.9%, 45.6% and 11.5% respectively. After controlling the potential confounding factors, it was found that there was a statistical correlation between healthy type and beverage type of maternal dietary patterns during pregnancy and early childhood BMI change trajectory ( P<0.05). Comparison of change trajectories between thinnish type and average stature type, children in the low-level group of healthy diet pattern tended to have a thinnish type change trajectory in early life ( OR=1.286, 95% CI: 1.002-1.651). Comparison of change trajectories between mild obesity type and average stature type, children in the high-level group of beverage diet pattern tended to have a mild obesity type change trajectory in early life ( OR=0.565, 95% CI: 0.342-0.935). The other dietary patterns had no statistical correlation with the early childhood BMI change trajectory. Conclusions:Maternal dietary patterns during pregnancy can affect the early childhood BMI change trajectory, and the low-level healthy type diet is an independent risk factor for thinnish type change trajectory, and the high-level beverage type diet is an independent risk factor for the mild obesity type change trajectory.

Objective:To investigate the association of thallium exposure during pregnancy with pregnant blood pressure changing and hypertensive disorder complicating pregnancy(HDCP).Methods:A total of 3 240 pregnant women who had establish maternal health care manual in Ma′anshan Maternal and Child Health-Care Hospital and met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were included in this study between May 2013 and September 2014.We collected their general demographic characteristics and blood pressure through questionnaire and medical records. Meanwhile we measured serum thallium concentrations by experimental technology. We use multiple logistic regression to analyze the association between thallium exposure during pregnancy and HDCP. Mixed linear model were used to analyze the association between thallium concentration and maternal systolic blood pressure (SBP) or diastolic blood pressure(DBP) in different trimestersResults:The age of 3 240 pregnant woman was (26.61±3.64) years, and the detection rate of HDCP was 5.9%(191).The median ( P 25, P 75) of thallium concentrations in first trimester, second trimester and third trimester were 62.96 (50.79, 77.04), 62.19 (50.87, 75.26), 48.84 (38.00, 66.00) ng/L, respectively. Multiple logistic regression results suggested after adjusting various confounding factors, the risk of HDCP in pregnant women with high concentrations of thallium (>77.04 ng/L) in the first trimester is 1.75 (95% CI:1.01-3.03) times higher than which with low concentrations(<50.82 ng/L). Mixed linear model results suggested there are positive correlation between thallium concentrations with maternal DBP in first trimester (β=1.12, 95% CI: 0.39-1.85). Conclusion:Exposure to high levels of thallium during first trimester may increase the risk of HDCP, and the exposure of thallium may be effective to DBP of pregnant.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of middle-preserving pancreatectomy (MPP).Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of two patients who underwent MPP in Fujian Provincial Hospital from July 2019 to October 2019 were collected. Case 1 was a 52-year-old woman with multiple serous cystic neoplasms of the pancreatic head and tail. Case 2 was a 20-year-old man with chronic pancreatitis and multiple pancreatic duct stones. After comprehensive evaluation, two patients were performed laparoscopic pancreatic head tumor resection+ pancreatic tail resection+ splenectomy+ pancreaticojejunostomy and duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection+ pancreatic tail resection+ lithotomy by longitudinal pancreatic duct incision+ side-to-side pancreaticojejunostomy, respectively. Observation indicators: surgery, operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, blood transfusion, postoperative fasting blood glucose, postoperative complications, duration of postoperative hospital stay, postoperative pathological examination, and follow-up. Follow-up was performed using outpatient examination and telephone interview to detect new-onset diabetes mellitus, pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy and disease recurrence up to March 2020.Results:Two patients successfully underwent MPP. The operation time of case 1 and case 2 were 470 minutes and 400 minutes, the volume of intraoperative blood loss were 200 mL and 100 mL, respectively. No blood transfusion was performed in either patient. The postoperative fasting blood glucose fluctuated between 5.4 and 11.8 mmol/L in case 1, and fluctuated between 5.9 and 11.3 mmol/L in case 2. Case 1 developed abdominal infection after operation, and was discharged after anti-infective treatment. Case 2 had good recovery with no complication. No pancreatic fistula or perioperative death occurred in two patients. The duration of postoperative hospital stay were 12 days and 8 days of case 1 and case 2, respectively. The pathological examination of case 1 showed serous cystadenoma of the pancreatic head and pancreatic tail. The pathological examination of case 2 showed that slightly dilated pancreatic ducts of the pancreatic head and tail with multiple stones and chronic inflammatory cells infiltration around the pancreatic ducts. The length of pancreas preserved was 8.5 cm and 8.3 cm of case 1 and case 2 on postoperative computed tomography (CT) reexamination. Two patients were followed up for 5 months and 7 months, respectively. During the follow-up, both patients had no new-onset diabetes and they didn′t require pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy. Both patients underwent upper abdominal CT examination at postoperative 5 months, which showed good blood supply in middle pancreas and no signs of recurrence of cystadenoma or stones.Conclusions:MPP is a safe and feasible procedure for the treatment of multifocal pancreatic lesions. The procedure can eradicate the lesions and ensure good control of blood glucose in patients.

Objective:To investigate the developmental behavior of early term infants at 6 months and its difference from that of complete full-term infants.Methods:A healthy maternal and infant birth cohort in maanshan city, established in Maanshan Maternal and Child Health Hospital from June 2015 to June 2016. Birth outcomes were copied from the hospital electronic medical record system after delivery. The Chinese Ages and Stages Questionnaires was used to assess developmental behavior. The chi-square test and multivariate unconditional logistic regression model were used to analyze the differences in the behavioral development of early and full term infants.Results:The birth rate of early term infants was 24.74% (500/2 021). The detection rates of communication, gross motor, fine motor, problem solving and individual-social areas in early term infants were 2.1%, 3.2%, 6.1%, 6.3% and 2.7%, respectively. The detection rate of problem-solving area in early term infants was significantly higher than that in the full-term infants (6.3% vs. 3.7%, χ 2=5.42, P<0.05). After controlling for confounding factors, compared with full-term infants, the risk of problem-solving area in early infants was significantly increased ( OR=1.65, 95%CI:1.01-2.70, P<0.05). Conclusion:The risk of behavioral retardation in Early term infants is significantly higher than that in full-term infants, and long-term follow-up and appropriate early development promotion interventions are needed to improve their quality of life.
