RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the effect of interventional embolization of prostate artery in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia with prostatic volume>80 ml.Methods:A total of 56 patients with BPH combined with hypertension, diabetesand heart disease with prostate volume>80 ml in Meizhou People′s Hospital from April 2018 to November 2020 were selected. They were divided into the study group and the control group according to a simple random number table, 28 cases in each group. The patients in the study group were performed prostatic arterial embolization, and the patients in the control group were performed transurethral resection of the prostate. The efficacy, perioperative conditions, preoperative and 1 month after operation serum total prostate specific antigen (TPSA) level, free prostate specific antigen (FPSA) level, prostate volume, and international prostate symptom score (IPSS) were compared between the two groups. The sexual life quality after operation for 6 months was compared between the two groups.Results:The efficacy of the two groups had no significant difference ( P>0.05). The intraoperative blood loss, postoperative catheterization, postoperative hospital stay in the study group were less than those in the control group: (10.65 ± 1.89) ml vs. (119.64 ± 23.60) ml, (2.16 ± 0.39) d vs. (3.05 ± 0.61) d, (3.03 ± 1.82) d vs. (7.10 ± 2.39) d, the differences were statistically significant( P<0.05). The levels of serum TPSA, FPSA and prostate volume, IPSS at the first month after surgery in the two groups had no significant differences ( P>0.05). After operation for 6 months, the scores of Chinese Index of Sexual Function for Premature Ejaculation-5 (CIPE-5) and International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) in the study group were higher than those in the control group: (18.63 ± 2.51) scores vs. (15.71 ± 2.29) scores, (16.38 ± 4.14) scores vs. (13.98 ± 3.82) scores, the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Prostate arterial embolization is effective in BPH patients with prostate volume>80 ml and underlying diseases. Compared with transurethral prostatectomy, it has the advantage of faster recovery after surgery, and it has an ideal effect in controlling diseases, improving urination function, and quality of sexual life.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the success rate, operation time and complications of ultrasound combined with X-ray-guided precise implantation of totally implantable access port (TIAP) in the chest wall.Methods:A total of 623 patients who underwent implantation of totally implantable venous access ports in the chest wall in Meizhou People's Hospital, China between January 2015 and August 2018 were included in this study. In group A ( n = 320), jugular or subclavian access ports were precisely implanted in the chest wall under the guidance of ultrasound combined with X-ray. During the surgery, color Doppler ultrasound was used to guide the puncture and a C-arm machine was used to locate the position of catheter tip. In group B ( n = 303), venous access ports were implanted using the conventional method. Subclavian vein puncture was performed using anatomic landmarks and the depth of catheterization was estimated by experience. The success rate of the first implantation, operation time, and complications (pneumothorax, hemothorax, catheter displacement, poor position of catheter tip, skin infection, and thrombosis) were compared between the two groups. Results:There were no statistical differences in baseline data between the two groups ( P > 0.05). The success rate of the first implantation in the group A was significantly higher than that in the group B [100% (320/320) vs. 93.06% (282/303), χ2 = 22.95, P < 0.01]. The operation time in the group A was significantly shorter than that in the group B [(26.48 ± 5.49) minutes vs. (35.51 ± 14.37) minutes, t = -10.25, P < 0.01]. In group A, 2 patients developed pneumothorax and healed after conservative treatment, 6 patients had thrombosis, and the incidence of complications was 2.5% (8/320). In group B, complications occurred in 67 patients, including pneumothorax in 9 patients, poor catheter tip position in 17 patients, thrombosis in 36 patients, and skin infection in 1 patient, and the incidence of complications was 22.11% (67/303). There was significant difference in the incidence of complications between the two groups ( χ2 = 56.53, P < 0.01). In group B, 6 out of 9 patients developing pneumothorax were healed after closed thoracic drainage, and 4 patients underwent a secondary surgery because of catheter displacement into the internal jugular vein. Conclusion:Precise implantation of venous access ports in the chest wall guided by ultrasound combined with X-ray has the advantages including 100% success rate of first precise implantation, few complications, short operation time, high comfort, safety and efficacy.
RESUMEN
Objective:To respond to the national requirements on the construction of research integrity, and improve the capacity building of research integrity at hospitals.Methods:Dealing with research integrity problems identified at hospital before 2018, measurements that include " policy and procedures development, standardization of the management of scientific research activities, and optimizing the scientific and technological evaluation system" were adopted to promote the construction of research integrity. Such corrective activities were monitored to summarize experiences and lessons for the continuing improvement of research integrity construction.Results:Both " heteronomy" and " self-discipline" of research integrity have been sublimated simultaneously, at the same time, a tailored research integrity management system with the characteristics of local hospitals has been established.Conclusions:Updating institutional policy and procedures, taking paper management as a priority, as well as research integrity training, these measurements played important roles in promoting the research integrity capacity building at hospitals.
