ABSTRACT

Transradial approach is the classical access for coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). With the increase in the number of interventional procedures, some disadvantages of the transradial approach have also been found, it is easy to lead to various complications, such as radial artery occlusion, radial nerve injury, and puncture difficulties after radial artery spasm. Therefore, some experts put forward the approach of distal radial artery approach for interventional therapy, which has the advantages of convenient positioning, easy postoperative hemostasis, less damage to the proximal radial artery and improving patients' comfort. However, there is no special distal radial artery hemostat in clinic, which limits the development of this approach to a certain extent. Therefore, based on the principles of anatomy and physics, cardiovascular physician at Jiading District District Central Hospital in Shanghai designed and invented a distal radial artery hemostatic device, which is convenient for clinical hemostasis of distal radial artery puncture, and obtained the National Utility Model Patent (patent number: ZL 2021 2 2097829.6). The hemostatic device consists of a glove body with a silicone gasket protruding towards the skin on the inner surface and a binding component. The patient's hand is inserted into the glove body, and after being fixed by the restraint component, the silicone gasket can effectively compress the location of the radial artery puncture point, and play a good hemostatic effect with less pressure, avoid the common complications of proximal radial artery hemostatic, and reduce the discomfort of the patient. Has good application value.

ABSTRACT

The present study aimed to explore the main active components and underlying mechanisms of Marsdenia tenacissima in the treatment of ovarian cancer(OC) through network pharmacology, molecular docking, and in vitro cell experiments. The active components of M. tenacissima were obtained from the literature search, and their potential targets were obtained from SwissTargetPrediction. The OC-related targets were retrieved from Therapeutic Target Database(TTD), Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man(OMIM), GeneCards, and PharmGKB. The common targets of the drug and the disease were screened out by Venn diagram. Cytoscape was used to construct an "active component-target-disease" network, and the core components were screened out according to the node degree. The protein-protein interaction(PPI) network of the common targets was constructed by STRING and Cytoscape, and the core targets were screened out according to the node degree. GO and KEGG enrichment analyses of potential therapeutic targets were carried out with DAVID database. Molecular docking was used to determine the binding activity of some active components to key targets by AutoDock. Finally, the anti-OC activity of M. tenacissima extract was verified based on SKOV3 cells in vitro. The PI3K/AKT signaling pathway was selected for in vitro experimental verification according to the results of GO function and KEGG pathway analyses. Network pharmacology results showed that 39 active components, such as kaempferol, 11α-O-benzoyl-12β-O-acetyltenacigenin B, and drevogenin Q, were screened out, involving 25 core targets such as AKT1, VEGFA, and EGFR, and the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway was the main pathway of target protein enrichment. The results of molecular docking also showed that the top ten core components showed good binding affinity to the top ten core targets. The results of in vitro experiments showed that M. tenacissima extract could significantly inhibit the proliferation of OC cells, induce apoptosis of OC cells through the mitochondrial pathway, and down-regulate the expression of proteins related to the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. This study shows that M. tenacissima has the characteristics of multi-component, multi-target, and multi-pathway synergistic effect in the treatment of OC, which provides a theoretical basis for in-depth research on the material basis, mechanism, and clinical application.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo investigate the value of remote consultation of heart sound acquisition in screening and referral of neonates with congenital heart diseases (CHD) in primary hospitals. MethodsA total of 4 030 neonates with non-critical diseases were selected. They were born in Shanghai Pudong New Area Maternal and Child Health Hospital from November 5, 2019 to March 31, 2021. After birth, routine cardiac auscultation was performed and remote consultation of heart sound collection were performed at the same time in combination with percutaneous oxygen saturation measurement to screen CHD. The children with any positive screening index were advised to verify the diagnosis by cardiac ultrasound examination in Shanghai Children's Medical Center. The diagnostic value of different screening methods was compared. ResultsA total of 110 cases were detected positive by routine screening. Among them, 16 cases were lost to follow-up, and 46 cases were confirmed by cardiac ultrasound examination, with a positive diagnosis rate of 48.94% (46/94). A total of 51 cases were detected positive by routine screening and remote consultation of heart sound collection simultaneously. Among them, 42 cases were confirmed by cardiac ultrasound examination, with a positive diagnosis rate of 82.35% (42/51). The difference between the two positive diagnosis rates was statistically significant (P<0.001). ConclusionRemote consultation of heart sound acquisition on the basis of routine neonatal CHD screening can effectively improve the positive diagnosis rate of CHD screening in primary hospitals, and reduce unnecessary referrals. This method is simple and feasible. It has practical value in primary hospitals that lack professional technicians for the diagnosis and treatment of CHD.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To observe the clinical effect of acupuncture for perimenopausal early-wake insomnia.@*METHODS@#A total of 60 patients with perimenopausal early-wake insomnia were randomly divided into an observation group (30 cases, 3 cases dropped off) and a control group (30 cases, 2 cases dropped off, 2 cases were removed). In the observation group, acupuncture was applied at Baihui (GV 20), Yintang (GV 24+), Anmian (Extra), Hegu (LI 4), Shenmen (HT 7), Taichong (LR 3), Taixi (KI 3), etc., once every other day, 3 times a week. In the control group, oryzanol tablets were taken orally, 20 mg each time, 3 times a day. Both groups were treated for 4 weeks. Before and after treatment, the sleep actigraphy (ACT) was used to measure the effective sleep time, sleep quality, wake-up time, wake-up frequency, each wake-up time, and the Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) score and early-wake score were compared in the two groups, and the clinical effect was assessed.@*RESULTS@#After treatment, compared before treatment, the effective sleep time was prolonged and the sleep quality was improved (P<0.05), the wake-up time, each wake-up time were shortened and wake-up frequency was decreased (P<0.05), the PSQI score and early-wake score were decreased (P<0.05) in the observation group. After treatment, the wake-up frequency, PSQI score and early-wake score were decreased in the control group (P<0.05). The effective sleep time, sleep quality, wake-up time, wake-up frequency, each wake-up time, PSQI score and early-wake score after treatment in the observation group were superior to the control group (P<0.05). The total effective rate was 88.9% (24/27) in the observation group, which was higher than 38.5% (10/26) in the control group (P<0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#Acupuncture can increase the effective sleep time and improve sleep quality in patients with perimenopausal early-wake insomnia.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES@#To develop the birth weight curve of singleton neonates with a gestational age of 24-42 weeks, and to investigate the regional differences of the birth weight curve.@*METHODS@#A total of 11 maternal and child health hospitals with more than 7 000 neonates delivered annually were selected in 11 cities of China (Haikou, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Liuzhou, Guilin, Quanzhou, Chongqing, Chengdu, Changsha, Ningbo, and Lianyungang), and all live singleton neonates delivered in the 11 hospitals from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2020 were enrolled for the development of birth weight curves.@*RESULTS@#A total of 93 720 singleton neonates with a gestational age of 24-42 weeks from the 11 cities were included in the study. The reference values of the 3rd-97th percentiles of birth weight of singleton neonates for the total of the 11 cities and for each of the 11 cities were established, and the birth weight percentile curves were drawn. The birth weight curve level of singleton neonates in Shenzhen and Quanzhou was almost the same as the average level of the 11 cities; the birth weight curve level of singleton neonates in Haikou, Guangzhou, Guilin, and Liuzhou was slightly lower than the average level of the 11 cities; the birth weight curve level of singleton neonates in Chongqing, Chengdu, and Changsha was slightly higher than the average level of the 11 cities; the birth weight curve level of singleton neonates in Ningbo and Lianyungang was higher than the average level of the 11 cities. The average birth weight curve level of singleton neonates in the 11 cities were very close to that of China Neonatal Cooperation Network in 2011-2014.@*CONCLUSIONS@#The reference values of the 3rd-97th percentiles of birth weight of singleton neonates for the total of the 11 cities and for each of the 11 cities are developed, which can be used as a reference for evaluating the intrauterine growth of singleton neonates in the region. The level of intrauterine growth of neonates in some cities is different from the national level.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To explore the value of tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) combined with two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging (2D-STI) at rest on evaluating microcirculation dysfunction and left ventricular dysfunction in patients with angina and no obstructive coronary artery disease(ANOCA). Methods: This retrospective study recruited 78 ANOCA patients, who hospitalized in the People's Hospital of Liaoning Province from August 2019 to July 2021. These patients underwent conventional echocardiography examination, including TDI and 2D-STI, to evaluate the left ventricular dysfunction, and adenosine stress echocardiography (SE) to evaluate the coronary flow velocity reserve (CFVR). ANOCA patients were divided into coronary microcirculation dysfunction CMD group (CFVR<2) and control group (CFVR≥2) according to CFVR. Clinical data, routine echocardiographic parameters, TDI parameters including isovolumic contraction time (IVCT), isovolumic relaxation time (IVRT), ejection time (ET), and STI parameters including global longitudinal peak strain (GLS), time to peak (TTP); peak strain dispersion (PSD) were compared between the two groups. Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of CMD and the predictive value of each parameter to construct a joint prediction model for the diagnosis of CMD in this patient cohort. Results: The mean age was (55.5±11.2) years, 43 (55%) patients were females in this patient cohort, 38 (49%) patienst were didvided into the CMD group and 40 (51%) into the control group. Age, prevalence of hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, and smokers were significantly higher in the CMD group than in the control group (all P<0.05). Tei index was higher, IVCT and TTP were longer, PSD was higher, ET was shorter, and absolute GLS was lower in the CMD group than in the control group (all P<0.05). The results of logistic regression analysis showed that longer IVCT, higher Tei index, higher time to PSD and lower absolute GLS were the independent risk factors of CMD. The ROC curve revealed that the predicting efficacy on CMD was satisfactiory with the combined predictors: AUC=0.884, sensitivity of 82% and specificity of 80%. Conclusions: TDI combined with 2D-STI is associated with a good diagnostic value on the diagnosis of CMD and left ventricular dysfunction in patients with ANOCA, which provides a feasible non-invasive tool for the diagnosis of CMD and risk stratification of patients with ANOCA.

ABSTRACT

Astrocytes are a heterogenous group of macroglia present in all regions of the brain and play critical roles in many aspects of brain development, function and disease. Previous studies suggest that the B-cell lymphoma-2 associated X protein (BAX)-dependent apoptosis plays essential roles in regulating neuronal number and achieving optimal excitation/inhibition ratio. The aim of the present paper was to study whether BAX regulates astrocyte distribution in a region-specific manner. Immunofluorescence staining of SOX9 was used to analyze and compare astrocyte density in primary somatosensory cortex, motor cortex, retrosplenial cortex and hippocampus in heterozygous and homozygous BAX knockout mice at age of six weeks when cortical development has finished and glia development has reached a relatively steady state. The results showed that astrocyte density varied significantly among different cortical subdivisions and between cortex and hippocampus. In contrast to the significant increase in GABAergic interneurons, the overall and region-specific astrocyte density remained unchanged in the cortex when BAX was absent. Interestingly, a significant reduction of astrocyte density was observed in the hippocampus of BAX knockout mice. These data suggest that BAX differentially regulates neurons and astrocytes in cortex as well as astrocytes in different brain regions during development. This study provided important information about the regional heterogeneity of astrocyte distribution and the potential contribution of BAX gene during development.

ABSTRACT

@#BACKGROUND: To explore the clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and treatment of patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) complicated with drug-induced erythroderma. METHODS: The clinical data of 12 AIDS patients with drug-induced erythroderma in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. The general information, offending medications, complications, modified severity-of-illness score for toxic epidermal necrolysis (SCORTEN) scores, and disease outcome spectrums were analyzed. RESULTS: Drug-induced erythroderma was mostly caused by antiviral drugs, antituberculosis drugs, antibiotics, traditional Chinese medicine, and immune checkpoint inhibitors. The spectrum of sensitizing drugs was broad, the clinical situation was complex, and infections were common. The affected areas were greater than 40% body surface area in all patients. The modified SCOTERN score averaged 3.01±0.99. All patients were treated with glucocorticoids, and nine patients were treated with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) pulse therapy at the same time. The average time to effectiveness was 7.08±2.23 days, and the average hospital stay was 17.92±8.46 days. Eleven patients were cured, and one patient died of secondary multiple infections, who had a modified SCORTEN score of 5 points. The mortality rate in this study was 8.3%. CONCLUSIONS: The clinical situation of AIDS patients with drug-induced erythroderma in hospitalized patients is complex and the co-infection rate is high. The use of modified SCORTEN score may objectively and accurately assess the conditions, and the use of glucocorticoid combined with IVIG therapy may improve the prognosis.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES@#To study the effect of glucose metabolism disorders on the short-term prognosis in neonates with asphyxia.@*METHODS@#A retrospective analysis was performed on the medical data of the neonates with asphyxia who were admitted to 52 hospitals in Hubei Province of China from January to December, 2018 and had blood glucose data within 12 hours after birth. Their blood glucose data at 1, 2, 6, and 12 hours after birth (with an allowable time error of 0.5 hour) were recorded. According to the presence or absence of brain injury and/or death during hospitalization, the neonates were divided into a poor prognosis group with 693 neonates and a good prognosis group with 779 neonates. The two groups were compared in the incidence of glucose metabolism disorders within 12 hours after birth and short-term prognosis.@*RESULTS@#Compared with the good prognosis group, the poor prognosis group had a significantly higher proportion of neonates from secondary hospitals (48.5% vs 42.6%, @*CONCLUSIONS@#Recurrent hyperglycemia in neonates with asphyxia may suggest poor short-term prognosis, and it is necessary to strengthen the early monitoring and management of the nervous system in such neonates.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore clinical application value of immediate breast reconstruction with silicone prosthesis after nipple areolar sparing mastectomy for breast cancer.Methods:The clinical data of 30 breast cancer patients underwent immediate breast reconstruction with the silicone prosthesis after nipple areolar sparing mastectomy from January 2016 to January 2018 were collected. In the observation group, 15 patients underwent immediate breast reconstruction with the silicone prosthesis after nipple areolar sparing mastectomy. In the control group, 15 patients underwent conventional modified radical mastectomy only. The differences of operation indicator and postoperative complications between the two groups were compared, and the postoperative cosmetic effects were evaluated.Results:The patients successfully completed prosthetic breast reconstruction in the observation group. The surgical time and indwelling time of the drainage tube in the observation group were both increased compared with the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=118.8 and t=23.9, P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in the complications of postoperative flap necrosis, subcutaneous hematoma, intraoperative infection and incision dehiscence ( P>0.05). The total complications rate of the observation group was 40%, compared with the control group (20%), there were not statistically significant differences ( P>0.05). The postoperative aesthetic effect evaluation showed that the reconstructed breast was full in shape and basically symmetrical to the contralateral side, with an excellent and good rate of 83.3%. The patients were satisfied with the appearance of the breast. All patients were followed up for 12 to 36 months with the average time of 24 months, and local recurrence and distant metastasis were not observed. Conclusions:In the modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer with preserved nipple and areola, the immediate application of silicone prosthesis for breast reconstruction has the advantages of less trauma, faster postoperative recovery and better cosmetic effect, which is worthy of clinical application.

ABSTRACT

Objective To understand the distribution of Oncomelania hupensis snails and changes of water levels in Gaoyou sections of the Li Canal following the operation of the eastern route project of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project. Methods The Oncomelania snails were monitored in the river banks and water bodies of Gaoyou sections of the Li Canal by means of systematic sampling combined with environmental sampling as well as collection of the floaters from 2014 to 2019, and the water levels were collected in Gaoyou sections of the Li Canal at the typical hydrological year before the operation of the eastern route project of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project and during the period between 2016 and 2019. Results A total area of 235.42 hm2 were investigated and a total of 75.8 kg floaters were collected in Gaoyou sections of the Li Canal from 2014 to 2019; however, no snails were found. The water level in Gaoyou sections of the Li Canal was predominantly high in the flood season and low in the dry season before the operation of the eastern route project of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, and the water level was elevated in the dry season and relatively low in the flood season after the operation of the project. Conclusion Following the operation of the eastern route project of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, the original river bank that is characterized by “land in winter and water in summer” has changed in Gaoyou sections of the Li Canal, which is not favorable for snail breeding.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the effect of three anatomical parameters (maxillary sinus width, maxillary sinus angle, and residual bone height) on the outcomes of transcrestal sinus lift with simultaneous implant placement.@*METHODS@#A total of 60 maxillary sinuses in 42 patients were included in this study. All patients were treated with transcrestal sinus lift procedure associated with simultaneous implant placement using a composite graft material of autogenous bone and Bio-Oss. For each patient, beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans were performed preoperatively, immediately after surgery, and 6 months after surgery. The parameters were measured on the preoperative and postoperative CBCT images. The correlation of three anatomical parameters with graft resorption was analyzed using Pearson's correlation test.@*RESULTS@#The average residual bone height was (4.46±1.55) mm. The average width of maxillary sinus was (13.86±2.71) mm. The average sinus angle was 78.09°±10.27°. A significant positive correlation was observed between maxillary sinus width and graft resorption (P<0.01). A positive association was also found between sinus angle and graft resorption (P<0.01).@*CONCLUSIONS@#The findings show that graft bone resorption in elevated sinus has a positive correlation with the sinus width and sinus angle.

ABSTRACT

Objective::To detect the expression levels of peripheral blood Treg/Th17 cells and related cytokines in patients with Hepatitis B virus-related acute-on-chronic liver failure (HBV-ACLF) with different traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome " Yanghuang-Yinyanghuang-Yinhuang" , in order to explore the cellular immunological characteristics of different TCM syndromes of liver failure. Method::The 32 cases of patients with HBV-ACLF in early, middle and late stages in line with the " Yanghuang-Yinyanghuang-Yinhuang" TCM syndrome grouping were selected. Flow cytometry was used to detect the frequency expression of Treg/Th17 cells in peripheral blood. The expression levels of interleukin-10(IL-10), transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β), interleukin-17A(IL-17A), tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) and interleukin-23(IL-23) were detected by cytometric bead array (CBA). The expressions of transcription factor forkhead box P3(FoxP3) and retinoid-related orphan nuclear receptor-γt(ROR-γt) mRNA were detected by Real-time PCR. The SPSS 20.0 software was applied in data statistics and processing to analyze the expression characteristics of Treg/Th17 cells and related cytokines in patients with different TCM syndrome types of HBV-ACLF. Result::The patients with HBV-ACLF Yanghuang syndrome were mainly distributed in the early stage of liver failure, those with Yinyanghuang syndrome were mainly distributed in the middle stage, and those with Yinhuang syndrome were distributed in the late stage. From Yanghuang syndrome, Yinyanghuang syndrome to Yinhuang syndrome, the frequency of Treg and Th17 cells gradually increased, and the differences among the groups were statistically significant (P<0.05). From Yanghuang syndrome, Yinyanghuang syndrome to Yinhuang syndrome, Treg cytokines IL-10, TGF-β gradually increased, and the differences among the groups were statistically significant (P<0.05). Th17 cytokines IL-17A, TNF-α, IL-23 gradually increased, of which IL-17A were differences between Yanghuang syndrome and the Yinyanghuang syndrome, as well as Yanghuang syndrome and Yinhuang syndrome (P<0.05). From Yanghuang syndrome, Yinyanghuang syndrome to Yinhuang syndrome, the expression of FoxP3 was gradually decreased, while that of ROR-γt was gradually increased, and the differences among the groups were statistically significant (P<0.01). Conclusion::There is a certain correlation between the different course of early, middle and late stages of HBV-ACLF and the distribution of TCM syndromes. The frequency of Treg and Th17 cells and the correlation of IL-17A, TGF-β and IL-10 with TCM syndrome differentiation are related, suggesting that Treg and Th17 cells have a certain reference value for the diagnosis of patients with HBV-ACLF and the syndrome differentiation of TCM syndromes.

ABSTRACT

Objective::Through the retrospective study of Hepatitis B virus-related acute-on-chronic liver failure (HBV-ACLF) patients, the clinical features and the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome distribution of HBV-ACLF complicated with bacterial infection were preliminarily expounded, so as to provide the corresponding theoretical basis for the diagnosis and treatment of HBV-ACLF secondary bacterial infection. Method::A unified data collection form for patients with slow plus acute liver failure was designed by the retrospective epidemiological investigation method. The clinical data of 307 patients with HBV-ACLF who were hospitalized at the Hepatology Institute of the First Affiliated Hospital of Hunan University of Chinese Medicine were collected in strict accordance with the inclusion and exclusion standards, and the main symptoms and the TCM symptoms were screened. Then, according to whether or not there was a bacterial infection, the patients were divided into a combined bacterial infection group and a non-combined bacterial infection group. The distribution characteristics of the main symptoms and the TCM symptoms in two groups were compared, and the distribution characteristics of TCM symptoms of HBV-ACLF with bacterial infection were obtained. Result::Compared with patients with uncombined bacterial infection, patients with combined bacterial infection had significantly increased abdominal distension, puffiness, purple and dark tongue color, abdominal varicose tendons, subcutaneous stasis spots, and tooth marks on the side of the tongue. Compared with patients with combined bacterial infections, patients with uncombined bacterial infections mainly showed bright yellow head, yellow tongue coating, and significantly increased dry mouth (P<0.05, P<0.01). The main symptoms of patients with combined bacterial infections was the combination of syndrome (93.6%), and more spleen deficiency syndrome (81.6%), patients with uncombined bacterial infections mainly suffered from a single syndrome (53.5%), which was mostly damp-heat syndrome (51.9%), patients of concurrent syndrome with combined bacterial infections mostly suffered from false and real syndrome (94.4%), which was significantly higher than those with uncombined bacterial infections (58.9%). Conclusion::The patients with HBV-ACLF without bacterial infection mainly suffered from damp-heat symptoms and signs. With the combination of bacterial infection, the symptoms and signs of spleen deficiency and blood stasis gradually worsened. HBV-ACLF patients with bacterial infection mainly suffered from spleen deficiency and blood stasis, while patients with unincorporated bacterial infection mainly suffered from the single damp-heat symptoms and signs.

ABSTRACT

Alzheimer' s disease (AD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disease, which is seriously affecting people' s lives. Until now, the pathogenesis of AD is still unknown which result in its worldwide difficulties in prevention and treatment. Some studies have shown that AD might be a metabolic disease associated with glucose, lipid and energy metabolisms. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) believes that the spleen is acquired foundation and the origination of Qi and blood. The function of spleen is not only closely related to the metabolism of substance and energy, but also related to the aging of human body. In this article, we summarized and analyzed the interrelationship of metabolism, AD and spleen, as well as the effect of spleen-invigorating prescription on AD. The purpose of the paper is to analyze the possible mechanism of TCM treating AD from the perspective of regulating metabolism, explore the potential value of spleen-strengthening TCM in the treatment or prevention of AD, and provide new ideas for exploring the drug development and TCM therapy of AD.

ABSTRACT

@#Objective    To compare the outcomes of sutureless technique and conventional technique in the surgical repair for infracardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC). Methods    The clinical data of 46 consecutive patients with infracardiac TAPVC undergoing surgical repair in our hospital between June 2014 and April 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients with combined congenital cardiac anomalies such as single ventricle and tetralogy of Fallot were excluded. Patients were divided into a conventional technique group and a sutureless technique group according to the surgical techniques. There were 35 patients in the conventional technique group, including 28 males (80.0%) and 7 females (20.0%) with a median age of 21 (8, 42) d and a median weight of 3.6 (3.0, 4.0) kg. There were 11 patients in the sutureless technique group, including 8 males (72.7%) and 3 females (27.3%) with a median age of 14 (6, 22) d and a median weight of 3.5 (2.9, 3.6) kg. The curative effect of the two groups was compared. Results    There were 5 deaths (10.9%) in the conventional technique group, including 4 in-hospital deaths (8.7%) and 1 late death (2.2%). Overall mortality of the conventional technique group (14.3%, 5/35) was higher than that of the sutureless technique group (0.0%, 0/11), although the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.317). Cox regression analysis showed that sex (P=0.042), age at repair (P=0.028), cardiopulmonary bypass time (P=0.007), aortic cross-clamping time (P=0.018) and duration of ventilation (P=0.042) were risk factors for postoperative mortality. The median follow-up was 18.00 (5.00, 37.75) months. Postoperative pulmonary venous obstruction occurred in 22 patients of the conventional technique group, which was significantly more than that of the sutureless technique group (P=0.000). Conclusion    For infracardiac TAPVC, sutureless technique can reduce the incidence of postoperative pulmonary venous obstruction compared with conventional technique.
