子野个数限值对宫颈癌固定野调强放疗计划的影响

目的:分析子野个数限值对宫颈癌固定野调强放疗（fixed-field intensity-modulated radiotherapy,ff-IMRT）计划的影响，寻求最优的子野个数限值。方法:选取10例接受ff-IMRT的宫颈癌患者，基于Monaco 5.11.03计划系统，以45 Gy/25 f处方剂量分别对同一患者设计8种ff-IMRT计划（ff-IMRT计划依据子野个数限值命名，子野个数限值分别为40、60、70、80、100、120、130、150），采用SPSS 20.0软件比较除plan100之外7个ff-IMRT计划与plan100剂量学参数、优化时间和治疗参数的差异。结果:8种ff-IMRT计划归一化后，plan40和plan60的D2%、Dmin、CI和HI均劣于plan100（P＜0.05）。8种ff-IMRT计划均能较好保护危及器官（organ at risk,OAR）和正常组织。plan40小肠V45;plan40和plan60小肠D2cc，直肠、膀胱V45、D40%，两侧股骨头V40和正常组织 V35、V40均高于plan100（P＜0.05）。plan40和plan60优化时间、治疗参数均优于plan100（P＜0.05）；plan120、plan130和plan150子野面积、子野个数（51~150 cm2和＞150 cm2）和出束时间均劣于plan100（P＜0.05）。结论:子野个数限值为70~100时，ff-IMRT计划能兼顾剂量学参数满足临床要求、优化时间和治疗参数最优化，建议在设计宫颈癌ff-IMRT计划时在该范围内设置子野个数限值。     

Atrial fibrillation after cardiac surgery: A systematic review and meta-analysis

ObjectiveNew-onset postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) after cardiac surgery is common, with rates up to 60%. POAF has been associated with early and late stroke, but its association with other cardiovascular outcomes is less known. The objective was to perform a meta-analysis of the studies reporting the association of POAF with perioperative and long-term outcomes in patients with cardiac surgery.MethodsWe performed a systematic review and a meta-analysis of studies that presented outcomes for cardiac surgery on the basis of the presence or absence of POAF. MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library were assessed; 57 studies (246,340 patients) were selected. Perioperative mortality was the primary outcome. Inverse variance method and random model were performed. Leave-one-out analysis, subgroup analyses, and metaregression were conducted.ResultsPOAF was associated with perioperative mortality (odds ratio [OR], 1.92; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.58-2.33), perioperative stroke (OR, 2.17; 95% CI, 1.90-2.49), perioperative myocardial infarction (OR, 1.28; 95% CI, 1.06-1.54), perioperative acute renal failure (OR, 2.74; 95% CI, 2.42-3.11), hospital (standardized mean difference, 0.80; 95% CI, 0.53-1.07) and intensive care unit stay (standardized mean difference, 0.55; 95% CI, 0.24-0.86), long-term mortality (incidence rate ratio [IRR], 1.54; 95% CI, 1.40-1.69), long-term stroke (IRR, 1.33; 95% CI, 1.21-1.46), and longstanding persistent atrial fibrillation (IRR, 4.73; 95% CI, 3.36-6.66).ConclusionsThe results suggest that POAF after cardiac surgery is associated with an increased occurrence of most short- and long-term cardiovascular adverse events. However, the causality of this association remains to be established.     

Minimally Invasive Treatments for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia: Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis

PurposeTo review and to compare indirectly the outcomes of minimally invasive therapies for the treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia.Materials and MethodsA literature search via Medline and Cochrane Central databases was completed for randomized control studies published between January 2000 to April 2020 for the following therapies: Rezum, Urolift, Aquablation, and prostatic artery embolization (PAE). Data on the following variables were included: International prostate symptom score (IPSS), maximum urinary flow rate, quality of life, and postvoid residual (PVR). Standard mean differences between treatments were compared through a meta-analysis using transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) to assess differences in treatment effect.ResultsThere was no significant difference in outcomes between therapies for IPSS at the 3, 6, and 12-month follow ups. Although outcomes for Rezum were only available out to 3 months, there were no consistently significant differences in outcomes when comparing Aquablation versus PAE versus Rezum. TURP PVR was significantly better than Urolift at 3, 6, and 12 months. No significant differences in minor or major adverse events were noted.ConclusionAlthough significant differences in outcomes were limited, Aquablation and PAE were the most durable at 12 months. PAE has been well studied on multiple randomized control trials with minimal adverse events while Aquablation has limited high quality data and has been associated with bleeding-related complications.     

早孕期监测子宫动脉多普勒参数在预测低危人群不良妊娠结局的价值

目的 建立妊娠11~13+6周子宫动脉多普勒参数在低危人群中的正常参考值，同时评估其对不良妊娠结局的预测价值。方法 收集2019年6月至2021年6月于我院行产前超声检查的妊娠11~13+6周孕妇，根据妊娠结局分组。收集两侧子宫动脉多普勒指标，包括搏动指数（PI）、阻力指数（RI）、舒张早期是否有切迹，以及孕妇基本临床资料和胎儿出生信息，将以上相关参数进行统计学分析。结果 最终纳入800例孕妇，包括正常妊娠结局组740例和不良妊娠结局组60例。两组孕妇体质量指数（BMI）、分娩孕周和胎儿出生体质量比较，差异均有统计学意义（均P＜0.05）。随着孕周的增加，子宫动脉两侧平均搏动指数（mPI）、平均阻力指数（mRI）和两侧舒张早期切迹检出率均呈逐渐下降的趋势。ROC曲线分析显示，mPI、mRI及两侧舒张早期切迹预测妊娠结局的曲线下面积（AUC）分别为0.542、0.574、0.521，三者联合预测妊娠结局的AUC为0.648；孕妇BMI、年龄mPI、mRI及两侧舒张早期切迹预测妊娠结局的AUC为0.751。结论 建立了低危人群在妊娠11~13+6周子宫动脉多普勒参数的正常参考值范围。在妊娠11~13+6周单纯应用子宫动脉多普勒参数预测妊娠结局的价值有限，将子宫动脉参数与临床相关指标结合可提高对不良妊娠结局的预测价值。

Real-world effectiveness of HPV vaccination against cervical neoplasia among birth cohorts ineligible for routine vaccination

Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine effectiveness may differ between settings. Here we present the first real-world effectiveness study of HPV vaccination on high-grade cervical lesions from Norway, among women who received HPV vaccine outside the routine program. We performed an observational study of all Norwegian women born 1975 to 1996 and retrieved individual data from nationwide registries on HPV vaccination status and incidence of histologically verified high-grade cervical neoplasia during 2006 to 2016. We estimated the incidence rate ratio (IRR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for vaccination vs no vaccination by Poisson regression stratified by age at vaccination <20 years and ≥20 years. The cohort consisted of 832 732 women, of which 46 381 (5.6%) received at least one dose of HPV vaccine by the end of 2016. The incidence rate of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or worse (CIN2+) increased with age regardless of vaccination status and was highest at age 25 to 29, at 637/100 000 among unvaccinated women, 487/100 000 among women vaccinated before age 20 and 831/100 000 among women vaccinated at age 20 or older. The adjusted IRR of CIN2+ between vaccinated and unvaccinated women was 0.62 (95% CI: 0.46-0.84) for women vaccinated below age 20, and 1.22 (95% CI: 1.03-1.43) for women vaccinated at age 20 or older. These findings indicate that HPV vaccination among women too old to be eligible for routine HPV vaccination is effective among women who are vaccinated below age 20 but may not have the desired impact among women who are vaccinated at age 20 or older.     

Diabetic foot ulcers: A devastating complication of diabetes mellitus continues non-stop in spite of new medical treatment modalities

Diabetic foot ulcer is a devastating complication of diabetes mellitus and significant cause of mortality and morbidity all over the world and can be complex and costly. The development of foot ulcer in a diabetic patient has been estimated to be 19%-34% through their lifetime. The pathophysiology of diabetic foot ulcer consist of neuropathy, trauma and, in many patients, additional peripheral arterial disease. In particular, diabetic neuropathy leads to foot deformity, callus formation, and insensitivity to trauma or pressure. The standard algorithms in diabetic foot ulcer management include assessing the ulcer grade classification, surgical debridement, dressing to facilitate wound healing, off-loading, vascular assessment (status and presence of a chance for interventional vascular correction), and infection and glycemic control. Although especially surgical procedures are sometimes inevitable, they are poor predictive factors for the prognosis of diabetic foot ulcer. Different novel treatment modalities such as nonsurgical debridement agents, oxygen therapies, and negative pressure wound therapy, topical drugs, cellular bioproducts, human growth factors, energy-based therapies, and systematic therapies have been available for patients with diabetic foot ulcer. However, it is uncertain whether they are effective in terms of promoting wound healing related with a limited number of randomized controlled trials. This review aims at evaluating diabetic foot ulcer with regard to all aspects. We will also focus on conventional and novel adjunctive therapy in diabetic foot management.     

稳定性冠心病血瘀证的血浆定量蛋白质组学探析＊

目的 基于数据非依赖性采集的定量蛋白质组学技术（data independent acquisition，DIA）对稳定性冠心病血瘀证患者的血浆蛋白质进行研究分析，初步探索冠心病血瘀证的关键生物学过程与核心靶点。方法 选择中国中医科学院广安门医院心血管科收治的5例稳定性冠心病患者作为疾病观察组，同时选取健康成人5人作为对照组，采用DIA蛋白质组学技术对受试者的血浆进行检测，确定蛋白质表达量后进行差异蛋白质表达分析、GO富集分析、KEGG信号通路图查询和蛋白质互作网络分析。结果 在差异倍数为1.5倍时，疾病观察组相比于健康对照组，共鉴定到22个蛋白质下调，9个蛋白质上调。进一步的生物信息学分析表明，冠心病血瘀证的生物学过程与补体参与的慢性炎症反应有关，关键信号通路是补体与凝血级联反应的信号通路，核心蛋白质为C反应蛋白、转甲状腺素蛋白、补体因子H、维生素D结合蛋白等。结论 冠心病血瘀证的生物学过程与补体参与的慢性炎症反应有关。
