ABSTRACT

Objective:To summarize the clinical data of Sun's procedure(total aortic arch replacement with frozen elephant trunk technique) in the treatment of complex aortic arch disease after previous cardiac surgery.Methods:From January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2020, a total of 55 patients underwent resternotomy Sun's procedure in the Aortic Surgery Center of Beijing Anzhen Hospital, including 41 males and 14 females, with a mean age of(45.4±12.7) years old, were retrospectively analyzed. The indications of primary cardiac surgery included type A aortic dissection, aortic root or ascending aortic aneurysm, heart valve surgery, and coronary heart disease. Indications for reoperation included residual aortic dissection larger than 55 mm in diameter, aortic aneurysm dilation, new type A aortic dissection, anastomotic leakage with symptoms, and pseudoaneurysm. All the operations were performed under general anesthesia and median resternotomy, total aortic arch replacement with the stented elephant trunk implantation and were performed by anterograde unilateral or bilateral cerebral perfusion.Results:There was no intraoperative death, and the postoperative mortality was 9.1%(5/55). The causes of death were 2 cases of low cardiac output, 1 case of respiratory failure, 1 case of cerebral complications, and 1 case of gastrointestinal bleeding. Except death, there were 2 cases of postoperative cerebral complications(2/50, 4%), 5 cases of spinal cord injury(transient paraplegia)(5/50, 10%), the median duration of ventilator use was 17 hours(14-42 h). Other postoperative complications included respiratory insufficiency requiring ventilatory support longer than 48 hours(8/50, 16%), renal insufficiency requiring temporary dialysis(2/50, 4%). The follow-up time was(25.9±11.2) months(10-47 months), during which 1 case died due to cerebral complication, 4 cases underwent total thoracoabdominal aorta replacement, and 1 case underwent anastomotic leakage repair.Conclusion:It is safe and effec to perform Sun's procedure(total aortic arch replacement with frozen elephant trunk technique) in the treatment of complex arch disease after previous cardiac surgery.

ABSTRACT

Interactions between gut microbiome and host immune system are fundamental to maintaining the intestinal mucosal barrier and homeostasis. At the host-gut microbiome interface, cell wall-derived molecules from gut commensal bacteria have been reported to play a pivotal role in training and remodeling host immune responses. In this article, we review gut bacterial cell wall-derived molecules with characterized chemical structures, including peptidoglycan and lipid-related molecules that impact host health and disease processes via regulating innate and adaptive immunity. Also, we aim to discuss the structures, immune responses, and underlying mechanisms of these immunogenic molecules. Based on current advances, we propose cell wall-derived components as important sources of medicinal agents for the treatment of infection and immune diseases.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the association of biliary, pancreatic, and ampullary tumors with the onset of acute pancreatitis (AP) and the clinical features of tumor-induced AP by retrospectively analyzing the clinical data of patients with tumor-induced AP. Methods Related clinical data were collected from the patients with AP who were admitted to The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2013 to August 2021. The etiological composition of AP was analyzed, as well as the change in the incidence rate of tumor-induced AP; the clinical features of AP were compared between tumor-induced and non-tumor-induced AP and between the tumors at different locations to explore the pathogenesis of tumor-induced AP. For normally distributed continuous data, the t -test was used for comparison between two groups; a one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between multiple groups, and the SNK- q test was used for further comparison between two groups. For non-normally distributed continuous data, the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison between two groups; the Kruskal-Wallis H test was used for comparison between multiple groups, and the Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used for further comparison between two groups. The chi-square test or the Fisher's exact test was used for comparison of dichotomous categorical data between groups, and the goodness-of-fit test was used for comparison of polytomous categorical data between groups. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the differential factors for pancreatic tumor-induced AP, and a multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the independent predictive factors for tumor-induced AP. Results A total of 8106 patients with AP were enrolled, among whom 84 patients (1.04%) had tumor-induced AP (tumor group). The tumor group had a significantly higher mean age than the non-tumor group ( t =6.050, P < 0.001). The mean time from initial onset of AP to tumor diagnosis was 7.38 months. Among the 84 patients with tumor-induced AP, 75 (89.2%) had mild AP (MAP), 8 (9.5%) had moderate severe AP, and 1(1.2%) had severe AP; as for the origin of tumor, 11(13.1%) had tumor originating from the lower biliary tract, 13(15.5%) had tumor originating from the ampulla, and 60(71.4%) had tumor originating from the pancreas. Recurrence of AP (risk ratio [ RR ]=8.362, 95% confidence interval [ CI ]: 3.162-22.115, P < 0.001), pancreatic duct dilatation ( RR =10.996, 95% CI : 3.871-31.236, P < 0.001), bile duct dilatation ( RR =7.738, 95% CI : 2.521-23.752, P < 0.001), and leukocyte count ( RR =0.766, 95% CI : 0.666-0.881, P < 0.001) were independent predictive factors for tumor-induced AP. Conclusion Tumor-induced AP is common in middle-aged and elderly men, with the clinical manifestations of MAP, easy recurrence, pancreatic duct dilatation/bile duct dilatation, and a persistent increase in the tumor marker CA19-9. Imaging examination of the biliary, pancreatic, and ampullary regions should be enhanced for AP with the above characteristics and no apparent trigger, and follow-up should be strengthened to avoid the missed diagnosis of tumor and the influence on prognosis.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To summarize the clinical outcomes and experience of redo median sternotomy on proximal aortic repair. Investigate the relationship between first operation and reoperation, reoperation indications, cardiopulmonary bypass strategy, intraoperative technical details, early and mid-term postoperative results.Methods:There were 28 patients underwent 29 times of redo median sternotomy on proximal aorta from April 2017 to December 2019. There were 23 males (79.3%) with an average age of (45.1±12.7) years (26-79 years), 15 Marfan syndrome (15/29, 51.7%) and 3 Behcet's disease (3/29, 10.3%). The primary operation included aortic valve or mitral valve replacement, Bentall procedure, ascending aortic replacement, simultaneous abdominal aortic replacement, Sun's procedure and coronary artery bypass grafting. The indications for reoperation were: aortic root aneurysm or coronary artery aneurysm, anastomotic leakage, perivalvular leakage due to inflammatory aortic disease, acute or chronic type A aortic dissection and aortic root abscess, aortic arch aneurysm. The surgical methods were Bentall, Cabrol, wheat, aortic valve sparing root replacement with replantation, anastomotic leakage repair, CABG, total arch replacement + stent elephant trunk implantation (Sun's procedure), ascending aorta to abdominal aorta bypass, abdominal aortic replacement.Results:One patient (3.4%) died in hospital because of severe postoperative pulmonary complications, consolidation of both lungs, ARDS and hypoxia. Postoperative low cardiac output was occurred in 2 cases (6.9%), 1 case was cured by ECMO, and 1 case died half a year after operation during follow up period. Re-exploration for postoperative hemorrhage was occurred in three cases (10.3%). Renal failure requires dialysis was 3 cases (10.3%), and transient paresis was 1 cases (3.4%), respectively. All of them were recovered before discharge. During the follow-up period, one patient died of multiple organ failure due to low cardiac output, and one patient underwent total thoracoabdominal aortic replacement. One patient underwent Cabrol for aneurysm of the coronary artery after Bentall procedure. One year later, type A dissection occurred again and Sun's procedure was performed through a median sternotomy.Conclusion:Reoperation of proximal aorta after cardiac and aortic surgery is safe and effective, with good short-term and medium-term results. Comprehensive preoperative evaluation, successful sternotomy, establishment of cardiopulmonary bypass and effective organ protection are the key to successful operation. Patients with aortic diseases, especially Marfan syndrome, are more likely to undergo reoperation. Close follow-up and timely reoperation are necessary to avoid aortic rupture. Sun's procedure is suitable for redo complex arch operation.

ABSTRACT

In this review paper, the influence of the changes of sex hormone levels in the reproductive transition period such as puberty, menstrual cycle, pregnancy, postpartum and menopause on the brain structure was retrospectively analyzed. The results showed that the fluctuation of sex hormone level in different reproductive cycles caused the change of neuroplasticity, which have a macroscopic and microscopic impact on the brain, causing normal or pathological changes in the brain, and there was a significant correlation between the changes of brain volume and sex hormone levels. These results indicated that sex hormones played an important role in the plasticity of brain structure at different stages of female reproductive transition, and the periodic and progressive changes in sex hormone levels were also critical to the influence of mood, cognitive function and psychoneurosis throughout the female life cycle. Therefore, a full understanding of the changes of brain structural plasticity and pathology related to sex hormones is helpful to understand the neural mechanism of the influence of sex hormones on brain structure, and provide effective theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of diseases in different hormonal transition periods for women in the future.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To summarize our clinical experience in the treatment of aortic root aneurysm by aortic valve sparing root replacement.Methods:From May 2017 to October 2019, a total of 20 patients with aortic root aneurysm underwent aortic valve sparing root replacement by reimplantation method. There were 17 males and 3 females, with an average age of(35.6±15.8) years(12-63 years). There were 11 cases of Marfan syndrome, 5 cases of bicuspid aortic valve, and 1 case of redo operation. The preoperative diameter of ascending aorta was(40.6±9.7)mm, the diameter of aortic sinus was(52.2±9.2)mm, and the diameter of aortic valve ring was(27.1±3.6)mm. There were 10 cases of no or mild regurgitation, 5 cases of moderate regurgitation and 5 cases of severe regurgitation. In the whole group of patients, the root replacement of aortic valve was retained by reimplantation, and the artificial graft were selected as: 26, 28 and 30mm straight vessels, 1, 3 and 6 cases, respectively, 26 and 28mm artificial graft with valsalva sinus, 4 and 6 cases, respectively. During the operation, aortic valve cusp repair was performed in 6 cases, such as plication of the free margin( 4 cases), decalcification(1 case) and raphe release(1 case).Results:None of the patients died in hospital or underwent rethoracotomy for hemostasis. During the operation, the duration of CPB time was(171.0±25.6) minutes and the duration of cross-clamp time was(134.0±23.2) minutes. There were 12 cases of aortic valve regurgitation and 8 cases of mild regurgitation. The mean follow-up was(15.1±9.8) months(4-33 months). During the follow-up period, there were 2 cases with moderate aortic regurgitation no need reoperation, while the rest of the patients had no or mild regurgitation. There are no patients undergoing reoperation. During the follow-up, 1 patient suffered coronary artery embolism in left circumflex artery and recovered after medicine treatment.Conclusion:Reimplantation with aortic valve sparing root replacement is safe and effective in the treatment of aortic root aneurysm, and the early and mid-term follow-up results are satisfactory, which can avoid anticoagulation-related complications and is suitable for young patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective To retrospectively analyze perioperative and early outcomes after Sun's procedure of type A aortic dissection patients with different tear size ratia.Methods To retrospectively analyze the general information of 120 patients with acute Stanford type A aortic dissectiontreatedin our center from November 2014 to December 2016.Patients were divided into three group according to proximal and distal tear sizeratio(PDTSR):35 patients in Group A(PDTSR≥2),44 patients in Group B (1/2 < PDTSR < 2)and 41 patients in Group C (PDTSR ≤ 1/2).Retrospectively reviewed the data of perioperativeand follow-up period.Results Preoperative mortality was significantly higher in Group A (37.1% vs.2.3% vs.2.4%;P < 0.001).Preoperative morbidity higher in Group A,but there was no significant difference.Ventilator support of duration > 5 days in Group A is significantly higher in Group A (P =0.006).Three-month closure rate of false lumen was higher in Group A (85.0% vs.65.0% vs.72.7 %,P =0.263).Proximal tear significantly larger than distal tear was found associated with preoperative death in logistic regression analysis.Conclusion Acute type A aortic dissection patients with larger proximal tear size need more urgent surgery to fix the dissection.Sun's procedure was an effective way to cure type A aortic dissection,while patients with relatively larger distal tears need more strict postoperative follow-up.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of intra-articular injection of ozone in collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) rats and to assess its effects on serum receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) levels. Methods Forty weight age malched Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal control group (normal group), the CIA model group (CIA group), ozone (O 3 group), and methotrexate (MTX group). In addition to the normal control group, Freund's complete adjuvant and bovine type Ⅱ collagen were injected to establish the rat model of CIA. After the model was sucessfully developed, double ankle injection concentration ozone group of 40 μg/ml of O3 each 1 ml, 1 times a week, a total of injection for 3 weeks for the experimenal group. MTX group of 0.9 mg/kg was injected 1 times a week for 3 weeks for the MTX group. Degree of foot swelling was measured, and radiographic assessment of arthritis index (AI) score was performed. One week after treatment, angular vein blood was collected for the rats after the intervention, flow multi-factor detection technology was used to test each rat. T test or Wilcoxon rank test was used to compare the difference between groups. Results ① After 3 week administration with O3, dcgree of foot swelling, and AI of the O3 group was reduced significanly than the CIA group during the same period (foot swelling degree: O3 group: (4.21±0.14) ml, CIA group (9.12±0.17) ml, T=64.08, P=0.00; AI O3 group: [(2.97± 0.18) ml, CIA group: 5.76 ±0.13, T=37.24, P=0.00], and X-ray showed joint damage was alleviated. ② The serum level of RANKL in the CIA group was significantly higher than of the normal group [CIA model group 1890.70(797.03, 10571.94)], normal group [74.46(29.21, 95.37), T=43, P=0.005] during the same period; The serum level of RANKL in the O3 group was significantly lower than the CIA group [O3 group 28.09 (14.11, 207.30), CIA group 1890.70 (797.03, 10571.94), T=39, P0.05).③Serum RANKL/OPG of the CIA group was significantly higher than that of the normal group during this period, the difference was statistically significant [CIA group 250.68(42.33, 2959.78), normal group 4.32(3.16,5.30), T=36, P0.05). Conclusion Intra-articular injection of concentration of 40 μg/ml of O3 can reduce RA rat joint swelling degree, which may relate to the mechanism that O3 can lower levels of serum RANKL and RANKL/OPG ratio, reduce osteoclast formation and activation.

ABSTRACT

Objective The objective of this study was to investigate the miR-345 expression level in non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)tissue and its potential clinical significance.Methods Real-time PCR was conducted to evaluate the expression of miR-345 in NSCLC tissues in 98 samples and cell lines.Then the association between tissue miR-345 expression level and clinical outcomes was further analyzed.Results The expression level of miR-345 was significantly decreased in NSCLC tissues and cell lines when compared to the controls(P<0.05).miR-345 expression level in NSCLS tissues was associated with various clinicopathological parameters including LN metastasis(P<0.001),distant metastasis(P=0.028),TNM stage(P=0.004)and grade(P=0.011).In addition,the NSCLC patients in the low miR-345 expression group showed significantly shorter overall survival time than that in the high miR-345expression group(P=0.021).Multivariate analysis showed that the expression of miR-345 was an independent risk factor for NSCLC(HR=3.897,95% CI:2.263~10.440;P=0.012).Conclusion The expression level of miR-345 was decreased in NSCLC tissues as well as cell lines compared with normal controls.Low miR-345 expression in tissues was associated with progression and poor prognosis of NSCLC.These results indicate that miR-345 may be a novel prognostic marker in NSCLC.

Objective To observe the effects of intra-articular ozone injection on the secretion of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α,Interleukin (IL)-6,IL-17A,and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the serum of rats with collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) and explore the therapeutic mechanism of ozone in RA treatment.Methods Thrity-two Wistar rats were randomized into 4 groups,including the ozone groups that receivedintra-articularinjection of 40 μg/ml ozone (O3 group),a blank control group (normal group),a methotrexate (MTX) group (MTX group) anda collagen-induced arthritismodel (CIA group).All the rats,except for those in the blank control group,were subjected to hypodermic injection of bovine collagen Ⅱ and complete Freund's adjuvant to induce CIA.Ozone treatment was administered once weekly for 3 weeks starting at 14 days after the model were established.MTX group were treated with methotrexate 0.9 mg/kg,once a week,a total of three weeks.The swelling degree of the foot were observed,and the serum contents of TNF-oα,IL-6,IL-17A and VEGF were detected.One-way analysis of variance or Kruskal-Wallis test was used to evaluate the experimental data.Results At the end of treatment,the degree of foot swelling was reduced significantly in rats with O3 group compared with that in the CIA group [(4.21±0.14) ml vs (9.12±0.17) ml,t=8.43,P=0.023].The serum concentration of TNF-α,IL-6 and VEGF showed significant difference between the CIA group and the O3 group[91.55(86.55,98.53) pg/ml vs 14.45 (12.55,16.15) pg/ml,x2=6.216,P=0.002;145.08(37.44± 362.82) pg/ml vs 5.84(5.47,15.93) pg/ml,x2=13.136,P=0.004;51.56(46.09,74.10) pg/ml vs.36.22(32.18,41.69) pg/ml,x2=3.732,P=0.002].There was no statistically significant difference between the O3 group and MTX group [14.45(12.55,16.15) pg/ml vs [12.45(11.80,15.60) pg/ml,x2=0.243,P>0.05;5.84(5.47,15.93) pg/ml vs 7.86(5.25,15.23) pg/ml,x2=0.058,P>0.05;36.22(32.18±41.69) pg/ml vs 40.17(35.47,50.73) pg/ml,x2=0.516,P>0.05].The serum concentration of IL-17A showed no significant difference between the normal group,the CIAgroup,the MTX group and the O3 group (F=1.827,P=0.165).Conclusion Intra-articular injecfion of 40 μg/ml ozone can attenuate synovitis in rats with CIA,the mechanism may relate to the inhibition of TNF-oα,IL-6 and VEGF in the serum.

ABSTRACT

Objective To identify the risk factors for acute kidney injury (AKI) in overweight patients who underwent surgery for the treatment of acute type A aortic dissection(TAAD).Methods A retrospective study including 108 consecutive overweight patients(body mass index(BMI) ≥24) between January 2010 and May 2013 in Beijing Anzhen Hospital was performed with Sun's procedure of total aortic arch replacement and frozen elephant trunk implantation.AKI was as defined according to Acute Kidney Injury Network (AKIN) criteria based on serum creatinine(sCr) or urine output.Results The mean age of the patients was(43.69 ± 9.66) years.During the postoperative period seventy-two patients(66.7%) developed AKI.The overall postoperative mortality rate was 7.4%,8.3% in AKI group and 5.6% in non-AKI group.There is no statistically significant difference between the two groups(P =0.32).A logistic regression analysis was performed to find out the independent risk factors for AKI:elevated preoperative sCr level and postoperative drainage volume.Renal replacement therapy(RRT) was performed in fifteen patients (13.9 %).Conclusion A higher incidence of AKI (66.7 %) in overweight patients following acute TAAD was identified.The logistic regression model found out elevated preoperative sCr level and 72 hour drainage volume as the two independent risk factors for AKI in overweight patients.More attention should be paid to prevent AKI in overweight patients following TAAD.

ABSTRACT

Aortic arch reconstruction is one of the most challenging operations in aortic surgery. Anatomical abnormalities of the aortic arch, including bovine aortic arch, aberrant right subclavian artery, and single vertebral artery have direct impact on the choice of surgical procedures and methods of brain protection.The risk of aortic arch reconstruction and the difficulty of operation, it is possible to avoid the injury of patients by strictly grasping the indication of operation. Intraoperative arterial cannulation and brain protection strategies are directly related to the success of the operation. This article makes a brief review of the above problems in the reconstruction of the aortic arch, hoping to be helpful to the cardiovascular surgeon.
