ABSTRACT
Objective:To summarize the clinical data of mitral valve surgery completed in a single surgical team in one year, to discuss the etiologic characteristics, methods, results and early postoperative outcomes of mitral valvuloplasty surgeries, and to analyze the epidemiologic trends of mitral valve diseases admitted to the hospital.Methods:A total of 209 mitral valve surgeries completed by the same surgeon in the single surgical team at the Cardiovascular Surgery, First Medical Center, Chinese PLA General Hospital, from January 2021 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Mitral valve surgery accounted for 53.6% of all surgeries in this team during the same period. There were 100 cases(47.8%) in males and 109 cases(52.2%) in females, aged 11-85 years old, with a mean of(53.5±15.2) years old. There were 121 cases(57.9%) of NYHA class Ⅱ and 88 cases(42.1%) of class Ⅲ/Ⅳ.Results:Of the 152 mitral valvuloplasty surgeries, 117(77%) were performed with a totally Thoracoscopic approach. Annuloplasty rings were applied in 145 cases(95.4%), including semi-rigid closed Physio II annuloplasty rings in 118 cases(81.4%), Gore-Tex artificial chordae were applied in 89 cases(58.6%) for a total of 145, leaflet repair in 15 cases(9.9%), edge-to-edge repair in 2 cases(1.3%), commissure suture in 34 cases(22.4%), and chordae tendineae and papillary muscle splitting in 15 cases(9.9%). The repair rate of degenerative mitral valve disease was 100%, and the repair rate of rheumatic mitral valve disease was 48.1%. The echocardiogram was received about one week after surgery, and there was no or trace regurgitation in 91 cases(59.9%), mild in 58 cases(38.2%), and moderate in 3 cases(2.0%). There were 2 cases(1.3%) of all-cause death.Conclusion:Degenerative mitral valve disease have become the leading cause of mitral valve disease in our center, and the proportion of rheumatic mitral valve disease has decreased. Degenerative mitral valve disease has a very high repair rate, and rheumatic mitral valve disease has a relatively low repair rate due to its special pathologic and anatomic characteristics. Most mitral valvuloplasty procedure can be performed in a totally thoracoscopic approach. The application of a mitral valvuloplasty ring combined with Gore-Tex artificial chordae by an experienced surgeon can achieve reliable repair results.
ABSTRACT
Although the frequency of composite resin restoration in children is gradually increasing, there are insufficient researches about the rate of composite resin repair in children. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the repair rate of composite resin restorations in the permanent first molar in children under 12 years old. This study retrospectively analyzed 169 children treated with composite resin restoration in the permanent first molar from May 2014 to April 2015.According to the location of the tooth, the repair rate was higher in the mandible than maxilla and in the left than right. In the classification of restoration, the repair rate was the highest in the class II cavity, and the repair rate was the lowest in the restoration of the occlusal surface only. Repair rate in two years was 14.8%, and repair hazard ratio decreased with age. The most common reason of composite resin restoration replacement was the secondary caries (74.1%).Within the limits of study, the repair rate of children was higher than that of adult due to the characteristics of children. Therefore, dentists should understand these characteristics and try to reduce the repair rate of composite resin composite restorations.

Medical treatment facility(MTF) is the equipment of diagnosis and therapy of patients in medical service.The quality of MTF is directly related to the life safety of people.So it is very important to recognize and discuss the maintainability using overall quality standpoint.This standpoint is set out to satisfy the need of patients,reflect the need ability characteristics of MTF or medical treatment service.To guarantee the quality not only designs and produces quality but also is the very important means to confirm the quality.
