A simplified technique for reconstruction of vesicourethral support in laparoscopic radical prostatectomy improves immediate continence / 中华男科学杂志

Objective@#To investigate the application of a simplified technique for reconstruction of vesicourethral support (RVUS) in laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP).@*METHODS@#From January 2017 to August 2019, 122 patients with localized prostate cancer underwent extraperitoneal LRP, 65 with RVUS (the RVUS group) and 57 without RVUS (the non-RVUS group). We compared the operation time, intraoperative blood loss, rate of pelvic lymph node dissection, neurovascular bundle sparing, incidence of urethrovesical anastomotic urinary leakage (UVAUL), postoperative urinary continence, postoperative hospital stay, intraperitoneal drainage tube removal time, and urethral catheter removal time between the two groups of patients.@*RESULTS@#No statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in the operation time, intraoperative blood loss, rate of pelvic lymph node dissection, neurovascular bundle sparing, or urethral catheter removal time (P > 0.05). The incidence rate of UVAUL was lower in the non-RVUS than in the RVUS group (8.8% vs 0%, P 0.05) and 12 months after catheter removal (87.7% vs 92.3%, P > 0.05). The postoperative hospital stay was dramatically longer in the non-RVUS than in the RVUS group (［9.1 ± 4.3］ vs ［6.7 ± 1.8］ d, P < 0.01) and so was the intraperitoneal drainage tube removal time (［6.9 ± 4.5］ vs ［4.8 ± 1.5］ d, P < 0.01).@*CONCLUSIONS@#The simplified technique for reconstruction of vesicourethral support in laparoscopic radical prostatectomy improves early urinary continence, especially immediate continence, decreases the incidence rate of urethrovesical anastomotic urinary leakage, and shortens the intraperitoneal drainage tube removal time and postoperative hospital stay.?

The application value of dual-layer detector spectral CT angiography in evaluation of brain perfusion in patients with acute ischemic stroke / 中华放射学杂志

Objective:To explore the clinical application value of the dual-layer detector spectral CTA in evaluation of brain perfusion impairment in patients with acute ischemic stroke.Methods:Clinical and imaging data of 35 patients with acute ischemic stroke in Weihai Central Hospital from March 2020 to October 2020 were reviewed retrospectively. All patients underwent head and neck spectral CTA examination and dynamic cerebral perfusion CT examination with dual-layer detector spectral CT. The iodine density map and effective atomic number map were reconstructed using CTA data, and the iodine density and effective atomic number, as well as the cerebral blood volume (CBV) and cerebral blood flow (CBF) values of the hypoperfusion area and the contralateral side were measured and compared; the areas of brain hypoperfusion regions were measured. Pearson′s correlation coefficient was used to analyze the correlation between iodine density values and CBV values, iodine density values and CBF values, effective atomic number values and CBV values, effective atomic number values and CBF values, as well as hypoperfusion area shown on CTA images and displayed on CTP-CBF map.Results:Of all the 35 patients, the iodine density value [(0.22±0.07) mg/ml], effective atomic number value (7.38±0.05), CBV value [(1.9±0.7) ml/100 g] and CBF value [(15.1±5.9) ml/(100 g·min)] of the hypoperfusion area were significantly lower than those of the healthy side [iodine density value (0.44±0.10) mg/ml, effective atomic number value (7.52±0.06), CBV value (3.4±0.7) ml/100 g, CBF value (57±27) ml/(100 g·min); t values were -14.7, -14.5, -11.2, -9.7, respectively, all P<0.001]. No significant difference was found between the hypoperfusion area shown on spectral CTA [(2 292±1 393) mm 2] and shown on CTP-CBF map [(2 290±1 359) mm 2] ( t=-0.076, P=0.944). There was a positive correlation between iodine density value and CBV (affected side: r=0.350, P=0.039, healthy side: r=0.551, P=0.001); a positive correlation was also found between effective atomic number value and CBV (affected side: r=0.488, P=0.003, healthy side: r=0.552, P=0.001); and there was a strong positive correlation between the hypoperfusion area on CTA and that on CTP-CBF ( r=0.993, P<0.001). Conclusion:Dual-layer detector spectral CTA can provide the “one-stop” assessement including head and neck vascular evaluation, as well as the hypoperfution area measument, which can be an alternative rapid method for evaluation of patients with acute ischemic stroke.

Expressions of TGF-β1 and EⅢA-FN after Rat Skeletal Muscle Contusion and Wound Age Estimation / 法医学杂志

Objective To study the expressions of transforming growth factor-β1 （TGF-β1） and EⅢA-fibronectin （EⅢA-FN） at different time points of antemortem injury, antemortem injury postmortem expression and postmortem injury and to explore their application value in wound age estimation. Methods A model of rat skeletal muscle contusion was established. The rats were randomly divided into normal control group （n=5）, antemortem contusion group （n=40）, antemortem contusion postmortem expression group （n=110） and postmortem injury group （n=25）. The expressions of TGF-β1 and EⅢA-FN after rat skeletal muscles antemortem contusion were detected with immunohistochemical staining. Expression changes of TGF-β1 and EⅢA-FN mRNA in each group were analyzed with real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR. Results Immunohistochemical staining results showed that a large number of polymorphonuclear leukocyte, mononuclear cells and fibroblastic cells showed a strong expression of TGF-β1 in wounded zones 12 h-14 d after antemortem contusion. EⅢA-FN was mainly distributed in the extracellular matrix, 3 to 7 d post-traumatic. Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR results showed that TGF-β1 and EⅢA-FN mRNA in antemortem injury group reached the peak at 3 and 5 d post-traumatic respectively. The expressions of TGF-β1 and EⅢA-FN mRNA in antemortem contusion postmortem expression group peaked at 6 h and 12 h postmortem. The expression of TGF-β1 and EⅢA-FN mRNA in postmortem injury group 0.5-12 h postmortem was significantly lower than those of the normal control group and the antemortem contusion group. Conclusion TGF-β1 and EⅢA-FN might become a reference index for skeletal muscle wound age estimation.
