RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the risk factors for retrograde type A dissection (RTAD) associated with thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) which provided the basis for clinical risk stratification and treatment decision.Methods:The clinical data of 1 688 patients with thoracic aortic disease who underwent TEVAR in our center from January 2004 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The pathological classification included aortic dissection (1 592 cases) and other thoracic aortic diseases (96 cases). Univariate analysis and categorical multiple logistic regression analysis were used to explore the risk factors for the development of RTAD during or after TEVAR.Results:A total of 18 cases of RTAD were found, with an overall incidence of 1.1% (18/1 688), all of which occurred in aortic dissection group. After adjusting for confounding factors, multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the incidence of RTAD was significantly decreased(OR=0.27,95%CI 0.07-0.96, P=0.043) when the oversize of stentgraft was 11%-20%, the oversize of stentgraft was ≤10% as the control group, and the difference was statistically significant( P<0.05). The ascending aorta diameter was <40 mm as the control group, and there was no significant difference in the incidence of RTAD between the ≥40 mm group and the control group(OR=2.71,95%CI 0.94-7.84, P=0.065). Conclusions:Aortic dissection is more likely to develop RTAD than other thoracic aortic diseases. A proper stentgraft oversizing ratio could reduce the probability of RTAD. That is to say that a too low stentgraft oversizing ratio is not recommended.
RESUMEN
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances （PFASs） are a new type of persistent organic pollutants with global attention. They have shown multiple toxic effects due to their persistent accumulation in human body through exposure to environmental media such as drinking water， food， atmosphere， and soil. However， the bone toxicity of PFASs has not attracted enough attention. It is believed that the exposure and accumulation of PFASs in human have a significant impact on the bone health， especially hindering the healthy bone development in infants and adolescents， and aggravating the occurrence of bone loss and fracture in the elder populations. This paper will review the research progress of the effects of PFASs exposure on bone health indicators such as bone mineral density， and discuss the mechanisms of PFAS in bone toxicity. This review will provide references for revealing the effects of PFASs exposure on bone health and their toxic mechanisms.
RESUMEN
ObjectiveTo establish a non-targeted screening method for emerging contaminants in drinking water based on high-resolution mass spectrometry and apply it to actual water samples. MethodsA total of 9 drinking water samples collected from 3 reservoirs in Shanghai were purified and concentrated by HLB solid phase extraction column， then separated and analyzed by liquid chromatography high-resolution mass spectrometer and gas chromatography high⁃resolution mass spectrometer. The acquired data were analyzed by Thermo Tracefinder， Excel and other software combined with mzCloud and NIST databases. The methodology was verified with representative compound standards. Pesticide and perfluorinated compounds were taken as examples to analyze their pollution status. ResultsA non-targeted analysis strategy based on liquid chromatography and gas chromatography tandem high-resolution mass spectrometry was established. The pollution level of 20 kinds of pesticides and 4 kinds of perfluorinated compounds identified in 9 drinking water samples were higher in the Huangpu River than in the Yangtze River estuary. ConclusionThe established non-targeted screening method by high-resolution mass spectrometry can detect potential emerging contaminants in drinking water without relying on the standards， which provides a powerful technical means for water quality monitoring and risk assessment.
RESUMEN
Background The production and consumption of high polar pesticides in China are the largest in the world. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a method with fast analysis, large flux, and high accuracy to determine the residues of these pesticides in food. Objective To establish a method for the determination of eight highly polar pesticides [chlormequat, paraquat, difenzoquat, cyromazine, propamocarb, glyphosate, (aminomethyl)-phosphonic acid, and glufosinate] in vegetables and fruits by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Methods After comparing various types of hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) columns, and optimizing pH value and buffer concentration of mobile phase, effective chromatographic retention and separation of selected eight pesticides were achieved. Based on the optimization of mass spectrometry under chromatographic conditions, a multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) channel of target compounds was established. In the sample pretreatment, through optimization of water content, extraction solvent, and purification method, a final MRM mode of ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry was used for detection, and the isotope internal standard method was used for quantification. The accuracy and the precision of the method were evaluated using recovery and relative standard deviation. The established method was applied to detect 57 samples of retail vegetables and fruits to investigate the adaptability of the proposed method and the residual levels of selected high polar pesticides. Results For positive ion electrospray ionization (ESI+) detection, we chose Sielc Obelisc R as chromatographic column, and 20 mmol·L−1 ammonium formate solution (pH=3±0.05) and acetonitrile as mobile phase; for negative ion electrospray ionization (ESI−) detection, we chose Shodex Asahipak NH2P-50 2D as chromatographic column, and 5 mmol·L−1 ammonium acetate solution (pH=11±0.05) and acetonitrile as mobile phase to obtain good chromatographic separation and peak shape. Under the optimal conditions of sample water content standardization, using 2% acidified methanol as extraction solvent, and C18 dispersed solid phase extraction purification, the linearity ranges of five analytes (chlormequat, paraquat, difenzoquat, cyromazine, and propamocarb) and three analytes [glyphosate, (aminomethyl)phosphonic acid, and glufosinate] were 1.00-100 μg·L−1 and 5.00-500 μg·L−1 (both correlation coefficients>0.999) respectively, the detection limits were 0.002-0.010 mg·kg−1, and the limits of quantification (LOQ) were 0.005-0.025 mg·kg−1. At three spiked levels (LOQ, 2LOQ, and 5LOQ), the recoveries were in the range of 85.3%–113.2%, and the relative standard deviations were 1.5%–9.5% (n=6). Three target pesticides (chlormequat, cyromazine, and propamocarb) were detected in 57 samples of retail vegetables and fruits, and the residue of chlormequat in cowpea exceeded the maximum residue limit. Conclusion The established method of HILIC combined with ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry and isotopic internal standard quantification has the characteristics of simplicity, stability, and easy operation, which is suitable for rapid screening and quantitative detection of selected eight high polar pesticide residues in large quantities of vegetables and fruits, and provides technical support for monitoring and risk assessment of high polar pesticide residues.

RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the treatment strategies for the thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) of Stanford type B aortic dissection (TBAD) accompanied with intra-or post-operational retrograde type A aortic dissection (RAAD).Methods:TBAD patients who underwent TEVAR in Henan Provincial People′s Hospital from February 2004 to January 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Among 1 176 cases, 14 cases (1.2%) were accompanied with RAAD. Another 9 patients who received TEVAR at other hospitals with TBAD accompanied with RAAD were also collected. In total 23 patients [18 males and 5 females, age as (54±12) years old , ranging from 38 to 79] were included in this study. There were 15 cases of typical dissection, 7 cases of intramural haematoma, and 1 case of penetrating aortic ulcer. Sixteen patients received surgical operation, 1 received hybrid surgery, and the remaining 6 patients underwent conventional therapies. The clinical data and followed up data were collected and analyzed.Results:Among 23 cases, 2 RAAD cases were discovered during the TEVAR, 8 cases were discovered during the perioperative period, 5 cases were discovered within 3 months after discharge, and 8 cases were discovered at more than 1 year after TEVAR, with the longest time point of 120 months after TEVAR. The RAAD rupture was located on the greater curvature side of the aorta in 21 cases, and on the minor curvature side in 2 cases. In 13 cases, the rupture was close to the stent head, and in 10 cases, the rupture was located on the ascending aorta and more than 2 cm from the stent head. Followed up data were collected in 21 cases, with the mean follow-up time as (59±40) months, ranging from 1 to 134 months. Six patients died, with 3 cases of all-reason death and 3 cases of cardiac-reason death. Among the 16 patients receiving surgical operation, one patient died during the perioperative period, and 1 patient suffered from the cerebral infarction and mediastinal infection. Well recovery was found in 1 patient received the hybrid operation. Five of 6 patients who received the conventional treatment died.Conclusions:RAAD is a serious complication related to TEVAR, with low incidence and high mortality rate. RAAD can occur in the early or late stages of TEVAR. TEVAR-associated RAAD has poor therapeutic outcomes, and the surgical operation should be recommended as the preferred treatment for RAAD in clinical practice.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the prognostic value of serum levels of miR-134 and miR-146b in elderly patients with acute ischemic stroke(AIS).Methods:A total of 162 elderly patients with AIS admitted to the Third People's Hospital of Haikou from January 2017 to October 2019 were enrolled.According to modified Rankin Scale(mRS)scores, they were divided into the good prognosis group(n=98, mRS score≤2)and the poor prognosis group(n=64, mRS score>2). Based on the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS), patients were divide into the mild group(n=46, NIHSS score<5), moderate group(n=75, 5≤NIHSS score≤20), and severe group(n=41, NIHSS score>20). Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to detect serum levels of miR-134 and miR-146b in each group.Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze risk factors for poor prognosis in elderly patients with AIS.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the value of serum miR-134 and miR-146b levels in predicting poor prognosis of elderly patients with AIS.Pearson correlation was used to analyze the correlations of serum levels of miR-134 and miR-146b with NIHSS and mRS scores in elderly patients with AIS.Results:Serum levels of miR-134(3.26±1.13 vs.0.85±0.38)and miR-146b(2.27±0.93 vs.0.56±0.21)were higher in the AIS group than in the control group( t=14.360 and 12.527, P<0.01). Serum levels of miR-134(4.35±1.46 vs.2.28±0.85)and miR-146b(3.07±1.04 vs.1.51±0.66)were higher in the poor prognosis group than in the good prognosis group( t=13.520 and 11.242, P<0.01). Serum levels of miR-134 and miR-146b in the severe group were higher than in the moderate and mild groups( t=10.815 and 9.462, P<0.01), and they were also higher in the moderate group than in the mild group( t=13.627, 11.611, P<0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that serum miR-134( OR=2.470, 95% CI: 1.603-4.927)and miR-146b( OR=1.914, 95% CI: 1.350-3.406)were risk factors for poor prognosis in elderly AIS patients( P<0.05). The ROC curve analysis showed that the optimal cut-off values of serum miR-134 and miR-146b to predict poor prognosis in elderly AIS patients were 3.84 and 2.68, respectively.The area under the ROC curve(AUC)of combined serum miR-134 and miR-146b(0.926, 95% CI: 0.865-0.987)for the prediction of poor prognosis was higher than that of either marker alone, with a sensitivity and specificity of 92.4% and 86.2%, respectively.The correlation analysis showed that serum levels of miR-134 and miR-146b were positively correlated with NIHSS and mRS scores in elderly AIS patients( r=0.806, 0.871, 0.785 and 0.842, all P<0.01). Conclusions:Increased serum miR-134 and miR-146b levels are correlated with the severity of neurological impairment and prognosis in elderly patients with AIS.Serum miR-134 and miR-146b levels together have a high value in predicting poor prognosis in elderly AIS patients.
RESUMEN
Objective This retrospective study is to investigate the clinical features, treatment methods, and follow?up results of aberrant subclavian artery (ASA) combined with aortic dissection (AD). Methods Totally 17 patients with ASA combined with AD (ASA+AD) admitted to our hospital from August 2013 to February 2018,were included. Among these patients,there were 14 acute cases and 3 chronic cases;13 males and 4 females; aged from 28 to 82 years,with the mean age of (54±14) years. All the ASAs in these 17 patients were located behind the esophagus. There were 15 cases of aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA),including 13 cases of Stanford type B AD (TBAD) and 2 cases of Stanford type A AD (TAAD). The other 2 cases of aberrant left subclavian artery (ALSA) was combined with TBAD. In these 15 patients combined with TBAD, 8 cases received the hybridization treatment, 4 patients underwent the simple transluminal stent?graft placement,and 3 cases were subjected to the conservative treatment. All the other 2 patients combined with TAAD received the surgical treatment. Results Out of these 17 patients,16 cases were successfully followed up,while 1 patient was lost in the follow?up period (who received the conservative treatment). The follow?up period lasted from 5 to 58 months, with an average of (30 ± 15) months. In the patients receiving the hybridization treatment, 1 case reported perioperative death, and another 1 case suffered from severe endoleakage. In the patients receiving the simple transluminal stent?graft placement,1 case reported coldness in right upper extremity, combined with numbness. One case receiving the surgical treatment reported severe endoleakage within 3 months after operation. Moreover, 2 cases reporting severe inner leakage underwent the secondary embolization treatment, obtaining satisfactory embolization effects. For the one case reporting coldness in right upper extremity, combined with numbness, after endovascular repairing treatment,the symptoms were significantly relived after drug treatment,without surgical treatment. No sever complications had been reported for the other patients during the follow?up period. Conclusion Patients with ASA+AD should be clearly diagnosed before surgery, and specific surgical plans should be determined according to specific conditions. Surgical treatment should be preferred for the patients of ASA combined with TAAD. For the patients of ASA combined with TBAD,the TEVAR or hybridization treatment or fenestration treatment could be considered,according to the condition of the arch branch vessels.

Objective This retrospective study is to analyze and summarize the clinical features and therapeutic experience of the isolated abdominal aortic dissection(IAAD). Methods Totally 17 patients of IAAD, who were admitted to our hospital from January 2009 to January 2016, were included in this retrospective analysis. Five patients with obvious pain or abdominal aorta diameter of 30 mm accompanied with sub-renal anchorage area of 15 mm, underwent endovascular repair. In these 5 patients, 4 cases were subjected to bifurcated stent graft endovascular repair and 1 case received the aorta uni-iliac endovascular repair combined with femoral-femoral artery bypass treatment. Moreover, 2 patients with sub-renal anchorage area of less than 15 mm were subjected to surgical treatment. In these 2 patients, 1 case with obvious pain and abdominal aorta diameter of 30 mm underwent the abdominal aorta-right iliac artery bypass combined with femoral-femoral artery bypass, while the other case with abdominal aorta diameter of 30 mm but no pain received the abdominal aorta-bilateral iliac artery bypass. Furthermore, 8 patients with no obvious pain and abdominal aorta diameter of less than 30 mm received conservative medical treatment. In addition, there were 2 patients with obvious pain and abdominal aorta diameter of 30 mm suffering from sudden death during the surgical preparation. Important complications of these patients during hospitalization and follow-up period were recorded, analyzed, and compared. Results For the 5 patients undergoing endovascular repair, the averaged hospitalization duration was(15.4 ± 2.9)d, one of whom died during hospitalization. There were 3 cases with follow-up period of ≥ 12 months, and 1 case reported left iliac branch occlusion. For the 2 patients subjected to surgical treatment, the follow-up period was less than 12 months, and no serious complications occurred during hospitalization or follow-up period. For the 8 patients receiving conservative medical treatment, the averaged hospitalization duration was(11.1±5.2)d. There were 4 cases with follow-up period of ≥ 12 months, and no serious complications occurred during hospitalization or follow-up period. Conclusions Endo or open surgical treatment is recommended for patients with isolated abdominal aortic dissection with obvious pain or abdominal aortic diameter of 30 mm. For the patients with no pain and abdominal aortic diameter of less than 30 mm, conservative medical treatment is recommended.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of hybrid operation in treating Stanford type B aortic dissection. Methods During the period from January 2011 to December 2013, hybrid operation was performed in 33 patients with complex Stanford type B aortic arch dissection. The patients included 28 males and 5 females with a average age of (50±12) years. The clinical effect and the complications, occurring in perioperative period and in 24-month follow-up period, were analyzed. Results The operation was successfully accomplished in all 33 patients, with a technical success rate of 100%. The average hospitali-zation time was 20 days. After the operation, 29 cases were followed up for 3-34 months and 4 cases were lost to follow up, the following-up rate was 87.9%. In 21 cases, the following-up time was over 12 months. Postoperative angiography showed that there was no typeⅠendoleak; complications included pulmonary infection (n=1), strokes (n=1), reversible abnormal renal function (n=6) and retrograde aortic arch dissection (n=1). No paraplegia occurred. During hospitalization time, two cases died, the mortality was 6.06%. During the following-up time, graft infection occurred in one case and continued presence of retrograde aortic arch dissection was observed in one case. Conclusion The complication occurrence after hybrid operation for Stanford type B aortic dissections is low. The hybrid technique is very safe and feasible, but several serious postoperative complications should not be ignored. The long-term effectiveness needs to be further clarified by systemic and large sample studies.
