Objective:To summarize the clinical characteristics and therapeutic efficacy of central nervous system (CNS) aspergillosis.Methods:The clinical manifestations, laboratory examination, neuroimaging features, treatment and prognosis of 37 cases of CNS aspergillosis diagnosed and treated in the First Medical Center of People′s Liberation Army General Hospital from January 2000 to January 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the correlation between intracranial lesions and paranasal sinus lesions, they were divided into two groups: rhino-cerebral aspergillosis (RA, n=21) group and cerebral aspergillosis (CA, n=16) group. Results:Only 16.2% (6/37) of CNS aspergillosis patients had a clear background of immunosuppression, but 35.1% (13/37) were complicated with diabetes. The most common clinical manifestations were headache (73.0%, 27/37), cranial nerve involvement (59.5%, 22/37) and fever (37.8%, 14/37). Cerebrospinal fluid characteristics included increased pressure (53.8%, 14/26), increased white blood cell count (46.7%, 14/30), decreased glucose (30.0%, 9/30), increased protein (70.0%, 21/30), and high positive results of the metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) of pathogenic microorganism (7/10). Cranial magnetic resonance imaging showed that commonly involved sites were sinus, orbital apex, posterior orbit, cavernous sinus (43.2%, 16/37) and cerebral lobes (27.0%, 10/37). Treatment options included antifungal drugs alone (64.9%, 24/37), combination of drugs and surgery (27.0%, 10/37) and surgery alone (8.1%, 3/37). Compared with the CA group, RA group had fewer males [47.6% (10/21) vs 14/16, χ2=6.34, P=0.012] and older age [(54.2±19.4) years vs (38.4±18.4) years, t=2.50, P=0.017], and was more prone to headache [85.7% (18/21) vs 9/16, χ2=4.00, P=0.046) and cranial nerve involvement [81.0% (17/21) vs 5/16, χ 2=9.31, P=0.006]. The misdiagnosis rate of these patients in the early stage was 73.0% (27/37). A total of 29 patients (85.3%, 29/34) were treated with voriconazole successively, and the course of treatment was 3.0 (0.5, 10.4) months. Compared with salvage therapy, the mortality of primary therapy was lower (4/17 vs 9/12, χ2=7.54, P=0.006). All patients were followed up to December 2021, and 17 patients died, with a mortality rate of 45.9% (17/37). Conclusions:CNS aspergillosis may have no definite immunosuppressive background. Some of CNS aspergillosis patients are complicated with diabetes, and the clinical manifestations of the disease lack specificity, with high misdiagnosis rate in the early stage, no inflammatory changes in cerebrospinal fluid, and high positive rate of mNGS for pathogenic microorganism. Early and long-term application of voriconazole can significantly reduce the mortality rate.

Objective:To investigate the effect of methoxyamine combined with target guided fluid in elderly patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy.Methods:90 elderly patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy were randomly divided into methoxyamine group and control group, with 45 cases in each group. The patients in both groups were treated with intravenous inhalation combined anesthesia. The stroke volume variation (SVV) was maintained at 7%-10% and the central venous pressure (CVP) was 4-8 cmH 2O. In methoxyamine group, 3 μg/(kg·min) methoxyamine was continuously pumped, while the control group was pumped with the same amount of normal saline at the same speed. The intraoperative infusion volume, urine volume, bleeding volume, blood transfusion cases, intraoperative mean arterial pressure, heart rate, blood gas analysis results, B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), creatinine, urea nitrogen level and postoperative exhaust time were compared between the two groups. Results:Compared with the control group, the patients in methoxyamine group had less infusion volume, urine volume, lower postoperative BNP level and heart rate, shorter postoperative exhaust time (all P<0.05), and higher mean arterial pressure ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in blood loss, blood transfusion cases, PaO 2, PaCO 2, pH, creatinine and urea nitrogen between the two groups (all P>0.05). In addition, the number of patients in the methoxyamine group who used pressor drugs was less than that in the control group ( P<0.05), and the frequency of bradycardia was more than that in the control group ( P<0.05). The proportion of tachycardia and urapidil was similar in the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Methoxyamine combined with target guided fluid therapy can reduce the intraoperative infusion volume of pancreaticoduodenectomy in elderly patients, stabilize circulation, shorten postoperative exhaust time, and contribute to the recovery of gastrointestinal function.

Objective To study the correlation between pulmonary surfactant protein C exon5 area's gene polymorphism and the premature infants with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) among Mongolian and Han ethnic in Inner Mongolia District. Methods Fifty unrelated Mongolian RDS premature infants (28 weeks ≤ gestational age <37 weeks) were recruited as study group (31 male and 19 female), and another 50 unrelated Han ethnic RDS premature infants (28 weeks ≤ gestational age<37 weeks) were enrolled at the same time, as control group (27 male and 23 female).Polymerase chain reaction was used for gene polymorphism analysis and gene detection technology was employed to determine the sequence of SP-C gene exon5 area, respectively. At last, the difference in genotype frequency of SP-C gene exon 5 area C. 715G>A(S186 N) was compared between two groups. Results There were three genotypes could be checked out from SP-C gene exon 5 area C. 715G>A(S 186N)locus; namely GG,AA,AG types, and in study group, genotype frequencies of these three genotypes were 28％, 62％ and 10％, respectively, and G allele frequency was 33％, and A allele frequency was 67％. Genotype frequencies in control group were 78％, 10％ and 12％, respectively, and G allele frequency was 84％, A allele frequency was 16％. The A allele genotype frequency in study group at SP-C exon 5 area C. 715G>A(S186N) significantly higher than that in control group. There was statistically significant difference in alleles variations between two groups (χ2 = 53.300, P＜ 0.05). Conclusions SP-C exon 5 area C. 715G>A(S 186N)locus polymorphism related to Inner Mongolia Mongolian premature RDS. Individuals carrying SP-C exon 5 area C. 715G>A (S186N) A alleles have higher risk of suffering from RDS.

Objective: To analyze the correlation between the changes of fibrinogen and the treatment effect of all-frequency sudden deafness, and to explore the individualized treatment strategy for the use of Batroxobin. Methods: Patients with all-frequency sudden deafness who were admitted to Department of Otorhinolaryngology, People′s Hospital of Peking University, from January 2010 to September 2016 were selected. All patients were given standard treatment and regular use of Batroxobin. Value of fibrinogen on D1 (before treatment) / D3 / D7 (±1) and D14 (±2) were recorded, at the same time, the correlation between the changes of fibrinogen and prognosis of all-frequency sudden deafness by the audiograms of onset and after-treatment of all patients were analyzed. Independent t-test was used to analyze normal distributed measurement data and chi square linear trend test was used to analyze the curative effect of different fibrinogen groups. Results: A total of 148 patients were included, the outcomes were worst when the patient′s fibrinogen was below 2 g/L or above 4 g/L before treatment, ineffective rate were both 50%. The fibrinogen was lowest when the treatment came to the third day. Normally, the patient′s prognosis was best when this value waved between 0.7 and 0.9 g/L, with a total effective rate between 73.9% and 83.3%. The fibrinogen value of the 7th day was a good indicator of the outcome, and Fib7 value was significant lower in patients of effective group than ineffective ones ((1.25±0.37)g/L vs (1.38±0.35) g/L, t=-0.27, P=0.04). Patients found a best recovery when Fib7 was below 1 g/L, and the higher the Fib7 value, the higher the inefficiency (χ²=7.55, P=0.01). Batroxobin showed safety during the treatment and found no complications. Conclusion The change of fibrinogen in the process of all-frequency sudden deafness is closely related to the curative effect.

BACKGROUND:The self-expanding Smart nitinol stent system is a popular treatment for carotid artery stenosis, because it is easy to manipulate and deploy, and endothelialization is rapid. OBJECTIVE:To assess the efficacy of Smart nitinol stent system for the treatment of severe atherosclerotic carotid stenosis. METHODS:We conducted a retrospective, single-center, non-randomized, paral el control ed trial. A cohort of 103 patients with severe atherosclerotic carotid stenosis was included in the analysis after obtaining written informed consent from participants or their guardians. Treatment was undertaken according to each patient’s wishes after weighing the options:a Smart nitinol stent system (Cordis Corporation, Miami, FL, USA) was used in 40 patients, while 63 were managed conservatively with antiplatelet drugs. The primary outcome is the degree of disability of dependence 2 years after treatment, assessed by the modified Rankin Scale. The secondary outcomes are mRS scores 90 days and 1 year after treatment, recurrence of cerebrovascular events, and severity of neurologic deficit measured using the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale 1 and 2 years after treatment. The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Beijing Jishuitan Hospital, China (approval number:201605-01) and conducted in accordance with the guidelines of the Declaration of Helsinki, formulated by the World Medical Association. This trial was registered at ClinicalTrial.gov (NCT02800174). DISCUSSION:Previous studies of the Smart nitinol stent system for the treatment of carotid stenosis are mostly self-control ed case series or smal cohort studies with short fol ow-up periods. Consequently, the long-term influence of Smart nitinol stent deployment on the risk of cerebrovascular events and long-term outcomes are not known. This trial il uminates the therapeutic benefits of the Smart nitinol stent system in a 2-year fol ow-up study involving a large cohort of patients with severe atherosclerotic carotid stenosis.

Objective To summarize the clinical features and vascular lesions in patients who suffered from cerebellar infarction with vertebral artery hypoplasia(VAH). Methods Retrospective analysis was used in the research. The selected patients suffered from cerebellar infarction with VAH or stenosis (stenosis rate≥50%). Seventy-one patients with cerebellar infarction were enrolled. There were 34 patients in VAH group and 37 patients in vertebral artery stenosis group. The age, sex, risk factors, clinical manifestations and characteristics of vascular examination were compared. Results The age, sex, risk factors between two groups had no significant differences (P>0.05). The scores of National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) between two groups had no significant difference (P>0.05). The proportion of early neurological deterioration in VAH group (41.2%, 14/34) was higher than that in vertebral artery stenosis group (18.9%, 7/37), χ2=4.21, P<0.05. There were more patients with anterior circulation artery stenosis in the VAH group (35.3%, 12/34), compared with that in artery stenosis group (13.5%, 5/37),χ2=4.62, P<0.05. Except the ipsilateral vertebral artery, other arteries stenosis in VAH group (44.1%, 15/34) was significantly higher than that in vertebral artery stenosis group (13.5%, 5/37),χ2=8.20, P<0.05. Conclusions Cerebellar infarction with vertebral artery hypoplasia is more likely to have multiple cerebral arterial stenosis (stenosis rate ≥50%). The patients who suffered from cerebellar infarction with vertebral artery hypoplasia might be prone to early neurological deterioration.
