ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the use of Enterprise stent in the treatment of symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (sICAS) . Methods The clinical data of 27 patients with sICAS, who were treated with Enterprise stent implantation at First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, China, during the period from January 2012 to December 2017, were retrospectively collected. The patient's basic parameters, characteristics of target lesions, technical success rate, perioperative safety and follow-up results were analyzed. Results A total of 27 patients (28 lesions in total) were enrolled in this study, and a total of 28 Enterprise stents were implanted. The preoperative mean stenosis degree of lesions was (75.7 ±6.7) ％, the postoperative residual stenosis degree was (23.2 ±16.6) ％. The technical success rate was 100％. Postoperative complication of perforating branch events occurred in 2 patients. No severe complications such as hemorrhage, artery dissection, in-stent thrombosis, hyper-perfusion syndrome, or cardiovascular events occurred. All patients were followed up for (10.8±9.1) months, and 3 instent restenosis lesions (≥50％) were detected although the patients had no target lesion-related symptoms, the incidence of in-stent restenosis was 10.7％. No newly-developed stroke caused by responsible blood vessel, bleeding events or death occurred. Conclusion For the treatment of sICAS, balloon dilatation followed by Enterprise stent implantation is technically feasible, and clinically safe and effective. The incidence of perioperative complications is low and the follow-up results are satisfactory. Further randomized controlled trials are still needed before its long-term efficacy is clarified.
ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss the establishment of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) model in rabbits by local application of ferric chloride at sinuses sagittalis superior (SSS) combined with thrombin injection, and to evaluate its feasibility and application value. Methods A total of 39 New Zealand white rabbits were randomly and equally divided into three groups with 13 rabbits in each group, local application of cotton piece saturated with saline at SSS for 10 minutes was performed for the rabbits of group A, SSS local application of cotton piece saturated with 40％ ferric chloride for 10 minutes was adopted for the rabbits of group B, while SSS local application of cotton piece saturated with 40％ ferric chloride for 5 minutes together with injection of thrombin was carried out for the rabbits of group C. Whole cerebral DSA was performed immediately after modeling to judge if there was formation of thrombosis. Two days after the modeling, every 3 rabbits from each group were sacrificed to make 2, 3, 5-chloride triphenyl tetrazole (TTC) staining. Seven days after the modeling, the remaining 10 rabbits of each group were examined with DSA, the vascular recanalization rates were calculated, and the histopathological examination was made. Results In group B and group C, SSS thrombosis with surrounding cerebral infarction, edema, inflammatory cell aggregation and other pathological changes were observed. The 7-day vascular recanalization rate in group C was strikingly lower than that in group B (10％ vs 70％, P＜0.05). Surrounding cortical vein thrombus and subcortex petechial hemorrhages were obviously seen in group C. Conclusion For the establishment of CVST model in rabbits, local application of ferric chloride at SSS together with thrombin injection is effective and feasible. The thrombus thus induced is quite stable, and its pathogenesis and pathophysiology are quite similar to clinical manifestations. Therefore, this method can be used for basic research and clinical trials of CVST.
ABSTRACT
Cerebral venous and sinus Thrombosis (CVST) is a rare ischemic cerebrovascular disease,the lesions of 60% patients are involved in multiple venous sinus,of which the superior sagittal sinus thrombosis is most common.The pathogenesis and pathophysiology of CVST has not yet been fully elucidated,and the establishment of stable and ideal animal models can provide a basis for the study of its development,prognosis and efficacy assessment.This article summarizes the characteristics and advantages of several available CVST models,but each method has its own limitations.Therefore,the establishment of a more ideal animal model will help to fully understand the pathogenesis and pathological process of CVST.
ABSTRACT
The hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignant tumors.Patients with hepatobiliary cancer suffer from multiple symptoms,such as physical symptoms and psychology symptoms.In recent years,along with the further research of symptoms,the concept of symptom clusters occurred.Those two issues have always been the hot topics in recent years.Through the efforts of experts at home and abroad,there has been a part of progress in this area.However,the results are not the same.There are lots of disputes in the numbers、sequence、incidences of the symptom clusters.The paper will discuss this issue from symptom experience and symptom clusters in order to provide the reference and basis for symptom management.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate dry chemical analysis of urine,automated quantitative anal-ysis of urine formed elements and urine living cells staining microscope extination combination of the three urine red blood cells for a variety of detection methods in the comprehensive analysis of renal dis-ease in the clinical application. Methods Gemany Miditron Junior Ⅱ of urine analyzer for chemical a-nalysis of urine. UF-1 00 automatic urine visible component analysis(referred to: UF-1 00)living cells (SM)staining, The difference in the imaging system under the microscope, in the urine of red blood cells to identify patterns observed. Results Urine dry chemical analysis,automated quantitative analy-sis of urine fomed elements and ,urlne staineg cells microscope examination of the three organic combi-nation of a variety of detection methods for urine analysis, Application of this paper, Detection of a va-riety of red blood cells urine analysis-urine flow chart of sources of identification laboratory, Improve the analysis of the urine test quality, efficiency and laboratory dinosis, made up of these expenmental methods of the deficiencies. Conclusion Kidney disease is extremely valuable to provide obj ective indi-cators, is in clinical methods.
