RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the efficacy of different preferred thrombectomy strategies for embolic acute vertebrobasilar artery occlusion (AVBAO).Methods:Forty-four patients with embolic AVBAO who underwent endovascular treatment in Department of Neurology, Nanyang Central Hospital from January 2019 to June 2021 were included in the study. Patients were divided into stent-retriever thrombectomy group ( n=27) and aspiration thrombectomy group ( n=17) according to different preferred thrombectomy strategies. Modified Rankin scale (mRS) was used to evaluate the prognoses of these patients 90 d after surgery; the differences of clinical data, surgery-related characteristics, prognoses and complications between the two groups were compared. Results:There was no significant difference between the 2 groups in terms of time from onset to puncture, sites of target vessel occlusion, proportion of patients accepted intraoperative remedial measures, and successful recirculation rate of target vessels ( P>0.05). Compared with the aspiration thrombectomy group, the stent-retriever thrombectomy group had significantly decreased utilization rate of middle catheters, significantly increased retrieval attempts in thrombectomy, statistically lower re-recanalization rate of first-time thrombectomy on the target vessels, significantly longer time from puncture to re-recanalization, and significantly higher incidence of new embolism ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the 2 groups in incidences of vascular rupture and postoperative spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH), and good prognosis rate 90 d after surgery ( P>0.05). Conclusion:For embolic AVBAO patients, similar recanalization and short-term good prognosis can be obtained by aspiration thrombectomy to those by stent-retriever thrombectomy; besides that, aspiration thrombectomy has advantages as shorter recanalization time, less new embolic complications and higher re-recanalization rate of first-time thrombectomy.
RESUMO
Objective@#To explore the correlation and consistency between thromboelastography (TEG) and traditional coagulation tests (CCTs) in ischemic cerebral vascular disease (ICVD).@*Methods@#Totally 108 ICVD patients admitted to Nanyang Central Hospital from May 1 to October 31 2018 were enrolled. Patients’ TEG parameters (R value, K value, Angle value, MA value, CI value and G value) and CCTs parameters (PT, APTT, TT, and FIB) were collected and analyzed retrospectively. The Spearman correlation coefficient was used to explore the correlation between TEG and CCTs parameters, and Kappa (κ) to explore the consistency in determining the coagulation status of the patients. The ROC curve was used to analyze the predictive value of TEG parameters for abnormal results of CCTs, and the results of TEG and CCTs were comprehensively analyzed to evaluate the ability to predict the coagulation status of patients.@*Results@#(1) PLT was positively correlated with MA value and G value; PT and APTT were positively correlated with K value; TT was positively correlated with R value and K value; FIB was positively correlated with Angle value, MA value and G value. TT was negatively correlated with Angle value and CI value; FIB was negatively correlated with K value. (2) PT and MA values, PT and G values, FIB and MA values, FIB and G values were accordant in valuing the hypoxic state of ICVD patients. (3) PLT and Angle values, PLT and MA values, PLT and CI values, PLT and G values were accordant in assessing hypercoagulable status of ICVD patients; FIB and Angle values, FIB and MA values, FIB and CI value, and FIB and G value were consistent in evaluating the hypercoagulable state of ICVD patients. (4) For detecting TT>20 s, the AUC of K value and Angle value were 0.648, 0.651, respectively; For detecting FIB>4 g/L, the AUC of Angle value and MA value were 0.717 and 0.747, respectively; For detecting PLT>300×109/L, the AUC of MA value was 0.808 (all P<0.05).@*Conclusions@#There is weak correlation and consistency between TEG and CCTs parameters in ICVD patients. The TEG parameters have good predictive value in evaluating the abnormal results of CCTs, but cannot replace the CCTs. Combination of these two methods can better reflect the coagulation status of patients, so as to afford assistance.

RESUMO
AIM:To study the influence of bone marrow mesenchymol stem cell-drived exosomes(BMSC-exo-somes)on hindlimb activity,and the numbers of reactive astrocytes and residual neurons in spinal cord injury(SCI)rats. METHODS:BMSCs were cultured using the whole bone marrow adherent culture method and surface markers CD 90 and CD34 were verified by flow cytometry.Exosomes were isolated by ultracentrifugation and the morphology of exosomes was observed under transmission electron microscope.The protein markers CD63 and CD9 were verified by Western blot.After exosomes were applied to SCI rats,the Basso,Beattie and Bresnahan locomotor rating scale score,the Nissl staining of the lesion site,and the numbers of reactive astrocytes and residual neurons were assessed at various time points.RESULTS:Transmission electron microscopic observation revealed the presence of saucer -shaped vesicles.BMSC-exosomes were found to express high levels of CD63 and CD9.Compared with injury group,significant improvement of hindlimb activity scores from day 14 after injury in treatment group was observed(P<0.05),and less reactive astrocytes and more residual neu-rons from day 7 after injury were also observed(P<0.05).CONCLUSION:BMSC-exosomes inhibit reactive astrocytes and death of neurons,and improve hindlimb activity in the rats after SCI.
