Night-time surgery for type a aortic dissection: Immediate or delaying?

OBJECTIVES: This study aims to investigate whether surgery performed during night compared with daytime were associated with an increased risk of operative mortality of type A aortic dissection (TAAD) patients. METHODS: A total of 2015 TAAD patients who underwent surgical repair were collected from two cardiovascular centers from Jan 2015 to Jan 2021. According to the start time of surgery, patients were divided into daytime group (06:01 a.m. to 06:00 p.m.) and night-time group (06:01 p.m. to 06:00 a.m.), and retrospective analyses were performed between them. RESULTS: The operative mortality of night-time group (12.2%, 43/352) was dramatically higher than daytime group (6.9%, 115/1663; p = 0.001). There was significant difference between night-time and daytime groups in terms of 30-days mortality (5.8% vs 10.8%; p = 0.001) and in-hospital mortality (3.5% vs 6.0%; p = 0.03). The night-time group had a longer duration of intensive care unit stay (4 vs two; days; p < 0.001) and ventilation support (34 vs 19; hours; p < 0.001), compared with daytime group. The risk factors for operative mortality were night-time surgery (odds ratio [OR], 1.545; p = 0.027), age (odds ratio, 1.152; p < 0.001), total arch replacement (OR, 2.265; p < 0.001) and previous aortic surgery (OR, 2.376; p = 0.003). CONCLUSION: Night-time surgical repair may be associated with higher operative mortality of patients with TAAD. Nevertheless, it is reasonable to offer emergency surgery at night-time for such patients who were more likely to present disastrous complications with delayed surgical intervention, as outcomes indicate acceptable operative mortality.

The progress of mechanical circulatory support devices / 中国胸心血管外科临床杂志

@#As a global disease, heart failure affects at least 26 million people, and its prevalence is still rising. Besides, the mortality rate and readmission rate remain high. Advanced heart failure is the terminal stage of various heart diseases, and often requires some treatments other than drug intervention, such as heart transplantation which is the gold standard for treatment of heart failure. However, limited by the number of donors, the number of heart transplants in the world has reached a bottleneck. There is a huge gap between the number of patients who need heart transplants and patients who get hearts for survival successfully in reality. With the exploration and development of mechanical circulation support devices for more than half a century, they have become a wonderful treatment for patients with advanced heart failure. This article will introduce the latest progress of mechanical circulatory support devices at home and abroad from the aspects of temporary and long-term devices.

Nonsense variation of OTUD5 gene in a fetus with X-linked multiple congenital anomalies- neurodevelopmental syndrome / 中华围产医学杂志

We report a fetus presented with complex cardiac malformations, pulmonary atresia with ventricular septal defect, detected by fetal echocardiography at 17 +4 weeks. The pregnancy was terminated after routine counseling and genetic tests were performed on umbilical cord of the induced fetus and peripheral blood samples of the parents. Whole-exome sequencing identified a novel maternally-inherited and likely pathogenic variation hemizygous nonsense variant, c.1651C>T (p.Gln551*) in the OTUD5 gene (NM_017602.3), which was confirmed by subsequent Sanger sequencing. The fetus was finally diagnosed as X-linked multiple congenital anomalies-neurodevelopmental syndrome.

Effects of mouth opening breathing for different reasons on maxillofacial development in children / 临床耳鼻咽喉头颈外科杂志

Objective:To explore the effects of mouth opening breathing for different reasons on children's maxillofacial development. Methods:One hundred and fifty-one children were selected as the research objects of this experiment. They were divided into 49 cases of adenoid hypertrophy group（group A）, 52 cases of tonsillar hypertrophy group（group B） and 50 cases of adenoid with tonsillar hypertrophy group（Group C）. Healthy children in the same period were selected as the control group, a total of 45 cases. The reflex nasopharyngeal measurement parameters, facial development indexes and cephalometric parameters of group A, group B, group C and control group were analyzed, and the incidence of Angle ClassⅡand Angle Class Ⅲ in group A, group B and group C were studied. Results:Compared with the control group, the reflex nasopharyngeal measurement parameters in group A, group B and group C was significantly different（P<0.05）, and the cephalometric parameters changed with variation in groups（P<0.05）. The incidence of Angle Class Ⅱ facial pattern in group A and group C was higher, but the incidence of Angle Class Ⅲ facial pattern in group B and group C was higher（P<0.05）. Conclusion:Adenoid hypertrophy leads to mandibular retraction; tonsil hypertrophy leads to anterior mandibular arch; adenoid hypertrophy and tonsil hypertrophy are easy to lead to clockwise rotation of the mandible. In clinical practice, to avoid children's uncoordinated maxillofacial development, we should correct the maxillofacial situation of children as soon as possible.

Analysis of MYRF gene variant in a fetus with Cardiac-urogenital syndrome / 中华医学遗传学杂志

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the genetic basis for a fetus with Cardiac-urogenital syndrome (CUGS).@*METHODS@#A fetus with congenital heart disease identified at the Maternal Fetal Medical Center for Fetal Heart Disease, Beijing Anzhen Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University in January 2019 was selected as the study subject. Clinical data of the fetus was collected. Copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq) and trio-whole exome sequencing (trio-WES) were carried out for the fetus and its parents. Candidate variants were verified by Sanger sequencing.@*RESULTS@#Detailed fetal echocardiographic examination had revealed hypoplastic aortic arch. The results of trio-WES revealed that the fetus has harbored a de novo splice variant of the MYRF gene (c.1792-2A>C), for which both parents were of the wild-type. Sanger sequencing confirmed the variant to be de novo. Based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), the variant was rated as likely pathogenic. CNV-seq has identified no chromosomal anomalies. And the fetus was diagnosed with Cardiac-urogenital syndrome.@*CONCLUSION@#The de novo splice variant of the MYRF gene probably underlay the abnormal phenotype in the fetus. Above finding has enriched the spectrum of MYRF gene variants.

Preoperative ascending aorta diameter and prognosis analysis of patients with acute type A aortic dissection / 中华胸心血管外科杂志

Objective:To investigate the preoperative ascending aorta diameter in patients with acute type A aortic dissection in the Chinese population, compares and analyze the differences in preoperative blood biomarkers, and evaluate the impact of the preoperative ascending aorta diameter in this part of patients on the short-term prognosis of patients.Methods:A collection of 641 patients with acute type A aortic dissection who were enrolled in the " Acute Aortic Syndrome High-Risk Early Warning and Intervention Study" project from January 2018 to January 2020 were collected. Divide the patients into two groups (group Ⅰ<55 mm, group Ⅱ≥55 mm) according to the preventive intervention value of ascending aorta diameter recommended by the guideline for studying preoperative ascending aorta diameter difference in blood biomarkers and the influence of ascending aorta diameter on the short-term prognosis of patients. All patients had CT scans to assess the diameter of the ascending aorta before operation.Results:In this study, all patients with acute type A aortic dissection had a mean preoperative ascending aorta diameter of (46.9±9.7)mm. The preoperative ascending aorta diameter of all patients was less than 55 mm, accounted for 84.1%. Male patients were more likely to have aortic dissection than females; most patients' age was less than 60 years old. The preoperative blood inflammatory index counts were higher in the ascending aorta diameter ≥55 mm group. However, the long-term prognosis of patients with different ascending aorta diameters before surgery was not apparent in this study. The preoperative survival rate and short-term survival rate of patients with ascending aorta diameter <55 mm were higher than those of other groups, but the difference was not statistically significant.Conclusion:In patients with acute type A aortic dissection, the diameter of the ascending aorta is usually less than 55 mm. Moreover, the blood inflammatory index counts are high in the preoperative ascending aorta diameter ≥55 mm group. Meanwhile, patients with smaller ascending aorta diameter have better survival rate and short-term prognosis.

Changing of haemostatic system in a pig model during different types of hypothermic circulatory arrest.

BACKGROUND: Hypothermic circulatory arrest is usually used in aortic surgery, congenital heart defect repairs and other complex surgeries. It is frequently associated with excessive postoperative bleeding and the transfusion of allogeneic blood products. The physiopathology of hypothermic circulatory arrest-induced coagulopathy has never been systematically studied. The aim of the study was to investigate this phenomenon in a pig model. METHODS: Ten pigs were randomly assigned to 30 min of hypothermic circulatory arrest at either 15 °C (n = 5) or 25 °C (n = 5). Detection of apoptosis and haemostatic system assays were performed in this experiment. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were performed at ten time points in each group to study the changes in the coagulation system in hypothermic circulatory arrest. All of the statistical analyses were performed in SPSS software, version 18.0, and as bilateral tests, and p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in the effect of different types of hypothermic circulatory arrest on routine laboratory tests and tissue sample analysis (p > 0.05, for all). Our results demonstrated that more severe systemic activation of the coagulation system (TAT and F1+2) was applied in the deep hypothermic circulatory arrest group but not in the moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest group (TAT/p = 0.01, F1+2/p = 0.03). However, this activation of the coagulation system (AT III and PC) was not associated with changes in the anticoagulation pathway (AT III/p = 0.24, PC/p = 0.33). In addition, analysis of biomarkers of the haemostatic system revealed that the consumption of coagulation is more concentrated on extrinsic coagulation factors (FVII/p = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest is more suitable for patients with coagulation dysfunction. We believe the application of deep hypothermic circulatory arrest should pay more attention to changes in coagulation rather than the anticoagulation pathway. Extrinsic coagulation factor supplementation is more effective after deep hypothermic circulatory arrest.

Risk factors for 24-hour death in acute type A aortic dissection patients with conservative treatment / 中国胸心血管外科临床杂志

@#Objective    To explore the risk factors for 24-hour death in acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) patients with conservative treatment. Methods    From January 2009 to January 2018, 243 ATAAD patients who received non-surgical intervention were admitted in Beijing Anzhen Hospital, including 167 males and 76 females with an average age of 53.0±12.0 years. The risk factors for 24-hour mortality were analyzed. Results    The total in-hospital mortality rate was 37.9% (93/243), and 13.6% (33/243) patients died within 24 hours of onset. We found that left ventricular end diastolic diameter [LVEDD, OR=0.45, 95%CI (0.25, 0.83), P<0.01] and aortic regurgitation [OR=7.26, 95%CI (1.67, 31.53), P<0.01] were independent risk factors for 24-hour death in patients with ATAAD. Conclusion    In this study, LVEDD and aortic regurgitation are identified as independent risk factors for 24-hour mortality in ATAAD patients. Therefore, patients with aortic regurgitation and small LVEDD should be treated with sugery as soon as possible.

The protection of deep hypothermic circulatory arrest for vital organs compares with moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest in pig model / 中华胸心血管外科杂志

Objective:To examine whether the use of moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest in a pig model provides comparable vital organ protection outcomes to the use of deep hypothermic circulatory arrest.Methods:Thirteen pigs were randomly assigned to 30 minutes of hypothermic circulatory arrest without cerebral perfusion at 15℃(n=5), 25℃(n=5) and a control group(n=3). The changes in standard laboratory tests and capacity for protection against apoptosis in different vital organs were monitored with different temperatures of hypothermic circulatory arrest management in pig model to determine which temperature was optimal for hypothermic circulatory arrest.Results:There were no significant differences in the capacity for protection against apoptosis in vital organs between 2 groups( P>0.05, respectively). Compared with the moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest group, the deep hypothermic circulatory arrest group had no significant advantages in terms of the biologic parameters of any other organs( P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with deep hypothermic circulatory arrest, moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest is a moderate technique that has similar advantages with regard to the levels of biomarkers of injury and capacity for protection against apoptosis in vital organs.

YAP/TAZ is related to the postoperative in-hospital death of Stanford type A aortic dissection / 中华胸心血管外科杂志

Objective:This study investigated the association between Yes-associated protein and WW domain-containing transcription regulator protein 1(YAP/TAZ) and the in-hospital surgical mortality rate of STAAD patients.Methods:The mouse β-aminopropionitrile monofumarate(BAPN) model was used to test the level of YAP/TAZ. From July 2016 to December 2016, the blood samples of 139 people who received routine physical examinations consecutively Beijing Anzhen Hospital were included as the control group.According to the inclusion and exclusion requiement, 95 consecutive patients with STAAD who underwent surgery in Beijing Anzhen Hospital during the same period, were involved in the final cohort study. The main outcome measure was in-hospital death. Their blood samples were regarded as the test group. The predictors of postoperative in-hospital death were confirmed by univariate regression analysis. Multivariable logistic regressions were used to analyze the association of the preoperative plasma level of TAZ and the postoperative in-hospital mortality of STAAD patients.Results:The YAP level showed less change in blood samples of both STAAD patients and the BAPN-induced STAAD mice compared to that of the sham control, while TAZ concentration experienced a significant increase. In the crude model, TAZ showed a positive correlation with in-hospital death( OR=1.327, 95% CI: 1.014-1.737, P=0.0392). In adjusted model Ⅰ and adjusted modelⅡ, similar results were found( OR=1.348, 95% CI: 1.010-1.803, P=0.0429; OR=1.353, 95% CI: 1.008-1.816, P=0.0442). Conclusion:The high level of TAZ in the blood suggested poor surgical prognosis for STAAD patients, and patients with a TAZ level ≥13 ng/ml had much higher mortality.

Analysis of curative effect of transoral radiofrequency ablation microsurgery on glottic carcinoma with anterior commissure involvement at the early stage / 中华耳鼻咽喉头颈外科杂志

Objective@#To explore the key technique and outcome of transoral radiofrequency ablation microsurgery for early stage of glottic carcinoma with anterior commissure involvement (ACI).@*Methods@#A retrospective analysis was conducted on 31 patients, who were diagnosed as early stage glottic carcinoma during January 2010 to March 2016 in ENT Department. According to whether the anterior commissure was involved or not, two groups were divided. There were eleven cases with ACI (stages T1a, T1b, and T2). Twenty cases without ACI (stages Tis, T1a, and T2). All the patients received transoral radiofrequency ablation microsurgery and followed up closely.Only one case received radiotheraphy after surgery. SPSS19.0 software was used to analyze data.@*Results@#The follow-up time was 12-67 months, and the median follow-up time was 30 months. Nine among 11 cases with ACI obtained good oncologic outcomes, initial local recurrence was identified in 2/11 cases, including 2 cases of T2. Two cases ultimately required salvage total laryngectomy. Meanwhile, initial local recurrence was identified in 2/20 cases without ACI, including 1 case of T1a and 1 case of T2. One case underwent elective neck dissection, and another one received salvage total laryngectomy.Compared to the patients without ACI, it seemed that the cases with ACI always accomponied with a little higher initial local recurrence and lower overall laryngealpreservation, but the difference had no significance (P>0.05).@*Conclusions@#Transoral radiofrequency ablation microsurgery is an effective treatment for glottic carcinoma with ACI. Its advantages, such as more flexibility and deformability, make it more feasible to operate at the narrow space of anterior commissure assisted with laryngeal endoscopy.Good oncologic outcomes can be obtained by this technique with lower initial local recurrence as well as higher overall laryngeal preservation rate.
