Objective To analyze the characteristics of platelet changes and their influencing factors during postoperative hospitalization in patients who underwent transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Methods The patients who underwent TAVI at Beijing Anzhen Hospital Valve Surgery Center between March 2017 and October 2021 were retrospectively selected. The patients were divided into a self-limiting group and a non-self-limiting group according to the characteristics of postoperative platelet decline. In addition, the general preoperative data, preoperative and postoperative ultrasound data, intraoperative data, and the use of anticoagulant drugs during the postoperative stay in the hospital were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 249 patients were enrolled in this study. There were 175 (70.3%) patients in the self-limiting group, including 100 males and 75 females, and there were 74 (29.7%) patients in the non-self-limiting group, including 43 males and 31 females, with no statistical difference between the two groups (P=0.863). The mean age of patients was 73.11±8.88 years in the self-limiting group and 71.54±10.39 years in the non-self-limiting group (P=0.231). The decline of platelets in the self-limiting group generally occurred on the postoperative day 2 and reached the lowest count on the postoperative day 4, and returned to the baseline level on the postoperative day 5-7, while the platelets in the non-self-limiting group changed by simple rise, fall or irregular fluctuation. Patients in the self-limiting group had severer preoperative aortic stenosis (P<0.001) and used more extracorporeal circulation assistance during surgery (P<0.001). Postoperatively, patients in the self-limiting group were more likely to have periaortic valve leakage than those in the non-self-limiting group (P=0.013). Conclusion Platelet changes in most patients after TAVI show a self-limiting decline, which may be related to the severity of patients’ preoperative aortic stenosis, intraoperative extracorporeal circulation device use, and postoperative perivalvular leakage.

Objective: To evaluate the risk of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) on excess mortality among residents. Methods: The data of residential mortality in Yangzhou City, Jiangsu Province from 2015 to 2021 were collected from the Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. The average daily mass concentration of PM2.5 and meteorology data were collected from the Yangzhou Environmental Monitoring Station and Yangzhou Meteorological Bureau, respectively. The effects of PM2.5 on non-accidental mortality, morality of respiratory diseases and mortality of circulatory diseases were evaluated using a generalized additive model. The risk of excess mortality was evaluated using excess risk (ER) and the number of excess mortality. Results: The median average annual mass concentration of PM2.5 was 38.00 (interquartile range, 31.95) µg/m3 in Yangzhou City from 2015 to 2021, decreasing from 51.75 (interquartile range, 32.82) µg/m3 in 2015 to 28.00 (interquartile range, 23.42) µg/m3 in 2021. The median average annual number of non-accidental mortality, mortality of respiratory diseases and mortality of circulatory diseases were 96 (interquartile range, 22), 9 (interquartile range, 5) and 38 (interquartile range, 13) cases, respectively. The greatest effects of per 10 μg/m3 increase in PM2.5 mass concentration on non-accidental mortality, mortality of respiratory diseases, and mortality of circulatory diseases were seen at a cumulative lag of 1 day (ER=0.528%, 95%CI: 0.293%-0.763%), a cumulative lag of 2 days (ER=0.917%, 95%CI: 0.125%-1.714%) and a cumulative lag of 1 day (ER=0.595%, 95%CI: 0.232%-0.961%), respectively. The number of excess mortality caused by PM2.5 on non-accidental mortality, mortality of respiratory diseases, and mortality of circulatory diseases in Yangzhou City from 2015 to 2021 were 2 125, 412 and 977 cases, respectively; compared with 2015, the number of excess mortality in 2021 decreased by 66.95%, 75.53% and 64.42%, respectively. Conclusions An increase in the mass concentration of atmospheric PM2.5 may elevate the risk of excess mortality among residents. Compared to 2015, the number of excess deaths attributed to exposure to atmospheric PM2.5 declined in 2021.

Objective To explore the therapeutic effects of different doses of radioactive iodine-131 on patients with hyperthyroidism.Methods A total of 574 patients with hyperthyroidism treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University from April 2020 to April 2023 were sampled for this study and were divided evenly into the observation group and the control group by a random number table,with 287 patients in each group.The control group was treated with high-dose radioactive iodine-131(＞10-15 mCi),while the observation group was provided with low-dose radioactive iodine-131(5-10 mCi).The therapeutic effects were estimated six months after treatment.Data of the two groups of patients before treatment and 3 and 6 months after treatment were compared,including the levels of thyroid hormone(FT4),free triiodothyronine(FT3),and thyroid-stimulating hormone(TSH),which were measured through the fluorescence immunochromatography of serum(obtained by centrifugation of 3 mL fasting venous blood),and the tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1),interleukin-6(IL-6),and IL-1,which were measured through the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay of serum.The salivary gland uptake index and salivary gland secretion index of the patients before treatment and 3 and 6 months after treatment were measured through radionuclide imaging.The incidence of adverse reactions during treatment was documen-ted.The incidence of hypothyroidism in both groups was evaluated 6 months after treatment.Results The total effective rate of the observation group and the control group was 83.27％(234/281)and 92.88％(261/281),respectively,and that of the observation group was significantly higher(x2=12.353,P＜0.05).The FT4,FT3,and TSH levels of the two groups before treatment showed no statistical discrepancy(P＞0.05).According to data collected 3 and 6 months after treatment,FT4 and FT3 levels of both groups significantly decreased,while TSH increased(P＜0.05)compared to corresponding pre-treatment levels;FT4 and FT3 levels of both groups observed 6 months after treatment were significantly lower than those observed 3 months before,in contrast to the growing TSH trend(P＜0.05).At 3 and 6 months after treatment,FT4 and FT3 levels of the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group,while TSH levels were significantly higher(P＜0.05).The salivary gland uptake index and salivary gland secretion index between the two groups before treatment showed no statistical discrepancy(P＞0.05).At 3 and 6 months after treatment,such indexes of both groups obviously decreased(P＜0.05).However,those observed 6 months after treatment were higher than three months before(P＜0.05).At 3 months after treatment,the salivary gland uptake index and salivary gland secretion index of the observation group were notably higher than the control group(P＜0.05);at 6 months after treatment,no statistical discrepancy was observed between the two groups in terms of the two indexes(P＞0.05).Before treatment,there was no statistical difference in TNF-α,TGF-β1,IL-6,and IL-1 levels between the two groups(P＞0.05).At 3 and 6 months after treatment,the TNF-α,TGF-β1,IL-6,and IL-1 levels of both groups decreased significantly from pre-treatment levels(P＜0.05),and the data observed 6 months after treatment were still lower than those observed 3 months after treatment(P＜0.05).At 3 months after treatment,the TNF-α,TGF-β1,IL-6,and IL-1 levels of the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group(P＜0.05);at 6 months after treatment,no statistical difference was observed between the two groups(P＞0.05).The incidence of adverse reactions during treatment in the control group and the observation group was 16.38％(47/287)and 8.01％(23/287),respectively,and that of the observation group was significantly lower than the other group(x2=8.457,P＜0.05).At 6 months after treatment,the incidence of hypothyroidism in the control group and the observation group was 12.46％(35/281)and 3.56％(10/281),respectively,and that of the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group(x2=15.098,P＜0.05).Conclusion Low doses of radioactive iodine-131 work better in the treatment of hyperthyroidism and can effectively alleviate inflammation and salivary gland dysfunction,with less risk of inducing hypothyroidism and adverse reactions.

Objective To develope a clinical decision support system(CDSS)on insulin titration and validate its effectiveness and safety.Methods Eighty patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus treated at the Department of Endocrinology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University from January 2021 to July 2023,who had difficulty in achieving glycemic control on the basis of lifestyle interventions and oral hypoglycemic drug treatments,were selected for the study.The patients were divided into the observation group and the control group using a random number table,with 40 cases in each group.Patients in both groups received oral metformin extended-release tablets,subcutaneous insulin degludec before bedtime,and subcutaneous aspartate insulin injection before three meals for glycemic control.Patients in the observation group were given insulin titration using the CDSS,and patients in the control group were given insulin titration using the conventional method.The retrospective continuous glucose monitoring system was used to monitor time in range(TIR)for glucose,mean amplitude of glycemic excursion(MAGE),mean blood glucose(MBG),standard deviation of blood glucose(SDBG),and the coefficient of variation(CV)of blood glucose.Fasting blood glucose(FBG),2-hour postprandial glucose(2hPG),length of hospitalization,time to achieve standard blood glucose control,and incidence of hypoglycemia of patients were recorded before and after treatment in the two groups.Results There was no significant difference in FBG and 2hPG of patients between the two groups before treat-ment(P＞0.05).The FBG and 2hPG levels of patients in the two groups were significantly lower than those before treatment(P＜0.05).The FBG and 2hPG levels of patients in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group after treatment(P＜0.05).TIR of patients in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group,while MAGE,MBG,SDBG,and CV were significantly lower than those in the control group after treatment(P＜0.05).The length of hospitalization was 9.0(7.3,10.0)days and 11.0(8.3,12.0)days of patients in the observation group and control group,respectively;and the length of hospitalization of patients in the control group was significantly longer than that in the observation group(Z=-2.408,P＜0.05).The time required to achieve glycemic control was 6.5(5.0,8.8)days and 7.5(6.0,10.0)days of patients in the observation group and control group,respectively;and the time required to achieve glycemic control of patients in the control group was significantly longer than that in the observation group(Z=-2.019,P＜0.05).The incidence of hypoglycemia of patients in the observation group and control group was 20.0％(8/40),12.5％(5/40),respectively;there was no significant difference in the incidence of hypoglycemia between the observation group and the control group(x2=0.827,P＞0.05).Conclusion Compared with the conventional titration of insulin,the application of CDSS can provide decision support during the implementation of a basal-meal insulin regimen,which can lead to more effective glycemic control,improved glucose TIR,reduced glycemic fluctuations,shorter time required for patients to achieve glycemic control,and shorter hospital stays without increasing the risk of hypoglycemia.

Objective:To investigate the postoperative prosthesis position and early clinical efficacy of 3D printing patient-specific instrumentation (PSI)-assisted unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA).Methods:The clinical data of 15 patients (17 knees, PSI group) with medial compartment knee osteoarthritis who underwent PSI-assisted UKA in the Second Affiliated Hospital, the Air Force Medical University from May to August 2023 were retrospectively analyzed, matched with fifteen patients (17 knees, non-PSI group) with medial compartment knee osteoarthritis undergoing conventional UKA. The differences in the prosthesis placement positions in the postoperative X-ray films between the two groups were compared, including the coronal varus-valgus angles of the tibial and femoral prostheses, the sagittal posterior inclination angle of the tibial prosthesis, the flexion-extension angle of the femoral prosthesis, and the height of the reconstructed joint line. The indicators related to the lower limb alignment (including the femoral valgus angle, the lateral femoral angle, the hip-knee-ankle angle, and the femur-tibia angle) and the range of motion of the knee joint before and after the operation were compared. The Oxford knee score (OKS), American Knee Society (AKS) knee score and function score, and the visual analogue scale (VAS) were used to evaluate the clinical effects of the two groups.Results:In the PSI group, the coronal varus-valgus angle of the tibial prosthesis was 1.6°±0.3° after the operation, and the sagittal posterior inclination angle was 5.7°±0.8°. The coronal varus-valgus angle of the femoral prosthesis was -0.5°±1.5°, and the sagittal flexion-extension angle was 4.0°±1.9°. In the non-PSI group, the corresponding angles were 2.3°±0.6°, 4.5°±1.0°, 1.4°±1.5°, and 7.3°±2.2° respectively with significant differences between the two groups ( P<0.05). The OKS of the PSI group before and after the operation were 26.5±1.8 and 38.6±4.1 points respectively. The AKS knee score were 56.9±8.6 and 89.2±7.2 points. The AKS function score were 70.1±4.2 and 77.5±9.4 points. The VAS were 4.5±3.7 and 2.3±0.3 points, and the range of motion of the knee joint were 115.2°±4.8° and 125.9°±4.6° with significant differences ( P<0.05). The OKS of the non-PSI group before and after the operation were 25.3±6.2 and 38.2±3.5 points respectively. The AKS knee score were 50.6±9.3 and 84.5±6.6 points. The AKS function score were 73.4±3.9 and 77.2±4.8 points. The VAS were 5.8±2.4 and 2.5±1.6 points, and the range of motion of the knee joint were 113.6°±6.7° and 122.3°±5.0° with significant differences ( P<0.05). There were inter-group differences in the AKS knee score and the range of motion of the knee joint after the operation between the two groups with significant differences ( P<0.05). Conclusion:PSI guides-assisted UKA can effectively correct the lower limb alignment of patients and improve knee joint function with good short-term efficacy. Compared with conventional UKA, PSI guides-assisted UKA is less time-consuming with higher precision in prosthesis installation position and fewer post-operative complications.
