RESUMO
OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of fondaparinux versus low molecular weight heparin（nadroparin，enoxaparin）in the treatment of non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome （NSTE-ACS）. METHODS The computer searched PubMed ，Medline，Embase，EBSCO，CNKI，Wanfang medical network ，VIP Chinese Journal Full-text Database and relevant clinical trial registration network for the clinical retrospective cohort study （RCS）of fondaparinux （as trial group）and low molecular weight heparin （natroparin，enoxaparin）（as control group ）in the treatment of NSTE-ACS. The retrieval time limit was from the establishment of the database to August 2021. Newcastle Ottawa scale （NOS）was used to evaluate the quality of literature. Outcome indicators included primary efficacy indicators （incidence of acute myocardial infarction and recurrent angina pectoris during hospitalization ），secondary efficacy indicators [revascularization of target vessels during 话：0835-2862024。E-mail：xiexingxing07@163.com hospitalization， prothrombin time （PT）， activated partial thromboplastin time （APTT）]，safety indicators （incidence of serious cardiovascular events ，severe bleeding ，slight bleeding and severe puncture site co mplications during hospitalization ），combined endpoint indicators （30 and 180 days combined endpoint）. RevMan 5.3 software was used for Meta-analysis of each effect index. RESULTS Finally，17 RCS articles were included，involving 4 946 patients with NSTE-ACS ，including 2 507 in the trial group and 2 439 in the control group.The results of NOS literature quality evaluation showed that there were 8 high-quality studies ，accounting for 47.06％ . The results of Meta-analysis showed that there was no significant difference in the incidence of acute myocardial infarction ，recurrent angina pectoris，revascularization of target vessels ，PT and serious cardiovascular events between 2 groups （P＞0.05）；there was significant difference in the APTT （MD＝1.34，95％CI of 0.22-2.45，P＜0.05），the incidence of severe bleeding （RR＝0.47， 95％CI of 0.30-0.74，P＜0.05），the incidence of slight bleeding （RR＝0.48，95％CI of 0.32-0.71，P＜0.05），the incidence of severe puncture site complications （RR＝0.48，95％CI of 0.25-0.95，P＜0.05），30 day combined endpoint （RR＝0.57，95％CI of 0.46-0.72，P＜0.05），180 days combined endpoint （RR＝0.73，95％CI of 0.54-0.98，P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Fondaparinux in the treatment of NSTE-ACS in China has the same efficacy as low molecular weight heparin （nadroparin，enoxaparin），and has more obvious advantages in drug safety such as bleeding ，severe puncture site complications.
RESUMO
Objective:To evaluate the characteristics of carotid plaque and the immediate outcomes after carotid artery stenting (CAS) in diabetic and non-diabetic patients by optical coherence tomography (OCT).Methods:Patients underwent CAS and OCT before and after operation in the Department of Neurology, Jinling Hospital from January 2014 to March 2019 were enrolled retrospectively. The clinical features, the characteristics of carotid plaque on OCT and the immediate outcomes after CAS were compared between diabetic group and non-diabetic group. The risk factors of stent malapposition were analyzed.Results:A total of 46 patients were enrolled. Their age was 64.02±8.32 years and 41 were males (89.1%). There were 20 patients (43.5%) in the diabetes group and 26 (56.5%) in the non-diabetes group. The proportions of atherosclerotic plaque with thin fibrous cap (40.0% vs. 7.7%; χ2=5.166, P=0.023), plaque rupture (55.0% vs. 23.1%; χ2=4.945, P=0.026) and macrophage infiltration (60.0% vs. 30.8%; χ2=3.930, P=0.047) in the diabetic group were significantly higher than those in the non-diabetic group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that older age (odds ratio [ OR] 1.208, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 1.033-1.413; P=0.018), coronary heart disease ( OR 15.953, 95% CI 1.142-222.952; P=0.040), alcohol consumption ( OR 6.192, 95% CI 1.098-34.923; P=0.039) and lower systolic blood pressure ( OR 0.944, 95% CI 0.894-0.997; P=0.037) were independently associated with stent malaposition. Conclusion:Compared with the non-diabetic patients, carotid plaque in diabetic patients may be more unstable. Older age, coronary heart disease, alcohol consumption and lower systolic blood pressure were associated with stent malaposition after carotid stenting. OCT can reveal the characteristics of carotid plaque and the immediate outcomes after CAS, which can provide strong evidence for treatment decision.

RESUMO
As an emerging intravascular imaging technology, intravascular optical coherence tomography (OCT) has been recognized for its clinical application value in the continuous exploration of the past decade. With its high resolution, OCT can clearly display the subtle morphological features of arterial stenosis lesions, help select treatment options, guide stent placement, and evaluate stent-vessel relationship and neo-intimal coverage after stent implantation for timely detecting early and late complications after stent placement. In recent years, a series of studies have also explored the value of OCT in the evaluation of cerebral angiography and intracranial and extracranial artery stent placement. We made a review of this topic.

RESUMO
Objective To investigate the capillary index score (CIS) and clinical outcome after endovascular treatment in patients with anterior circulation acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Methods From March 2014 to March 2017,patients with anterior circulation AIS received endovascular treatment in Jinling Hospital and Wuhu Yijishan Hospital were enrolled retrospectively. The data of intraoperative digital subtraction angiography were collected and CIS was calculated. They were divided into either a poor CIS group (score 0-1) or a good CIS group (scores 2-3). Univariate analysis was used to compare the baseline data, clinical data, and outcomes between the 2 groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the correlation between CIS and symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH), death, and functional outcome at 90 d after endovascular treatment(modified Rankin Scale score 0 to 2 was defined as good outcome). Results A total of 157 patients were enrolled, including 91 (58.0％) had poor CIS and 66 (42.0％) had good CIS.Age(P=0.020),baseline systolic pressure(P=0.014),baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score (P=0.011), early infarct size (P<0.001), as well as the proportions of internal carotid artery occlusion(P<0.001)and embolectomy >3 times(P=0.042)of the poor CIS group were significantly higher than those of the good CIS group.The vascular successful recanalization rate(P<0.001) and good outcome rate (P<0.001) at 90 d in the good CIS group were significantly higher than those in the poor CIS group, while the incidence of sICH (P=0.002) and mortality (P<0.001) were significantly lower than those of the poor CIS group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that CIS were significantly correlated with the functional outcome at 90 d (odd ratio [OR] 0.581, 95％ confidence interval[CI]0.419-0.805;P=0.001)and the risk of sICH at 72 h(OR 0.611,95％ CI 0.407-0.919; P=0.018) after endovascular treatment in patients with anterior circulation AIS,but it did not have a significant correlation with the risk of death (OR 0.783, 95％ CI 0.492-1.246; P=0.301). Conclusions CIS was significantly correlated with the clinical outcome in patients with anterior circulation AIS after endovascular treatment. It can be used as a tool to select patients for endovascular treatment.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the differential effect of neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) at admission on large artery atherosclerosis (LAA) and small vessel occlusion (SVO) in patients with minor stroke.Methods Patients with first-ever acute ischemic stroke registered in Nanjing Stroke Registration System were enrolled retrospectively.Minor stroke was defined as the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score ≤3.Binary logistic regression was used to evaluate the independent relationship between NLR and LAA.Results A total of 417 patients with minor stroke were included,of which 242 were in a LAA group and 175 were in a SVO group.Univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in leukocyte count,neutrophil count,lymphocyte count,NLR,glycosylated hemoglobin,highdensity lipoprotein cholesterol,onset to treatment time,and onset to NLR detection time between the patients of the LAA group and the SVO group (all P ＞0.05).Binary logistic regression analysis suggested that after adjusting for sex and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol,NLR (with the highest quartile as a reference,the first quartile:odds ratio [OR] 0.207,95％ confidence interval [CI]0.089-0.482;P ＞ 0.001;the second quartile:OR 0.277,95％ CI 0.122-0.625,P=0.002;the third quartile:OR 0.456,95％ CI 0.197-1.057;P =0.067),onset to NLR detection time (OR 1.216,95％ CI 1.038-1.424;P =0.015),and glycosylated hemoglobin (OR 1.414,95％ CI 1.142-0.751;P=0.002) were independently associated with LAA.The area under the ROC curve of NLR predicting the LAA was 0.611 in patients admitted within 7 d after onset,and was 0.673 in patients admitted within 24 h after onset.Conclusions The increased NLR was independently associated with the LAA in patients with minor stroke.Early NLR value may have higher predictive value for LAA.
