Higher Preimplantation Opioid Doses Associated With Long‐Term Spinal Cord Stimulation Failure in 211 Patients With Failed Back Surgery Syndrome

ObjectiveSpinal cord stimulation (SCS) is an effective treatment in failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS). We studied the effect of preimplantation opioid use on SCS outcome and the effect of SCS on opioid use during a two-year follow-up period.Materials and methodsThe study cohort included 211 consecutive FBSS patients who underwent an SCS trial from January 1997 to March 2014. Participants were divided into groups, which were as follows: 1) SCS trial only (n = 47), 2) successful SCS (implanted and in use throughout the two-year follow-up period, n = 131), and 3) unsuccessful SCS (implanted but later explanted or revised due to inadequate pain relief, n = 29). Patients who underwent explantation for other reasons (n = 4) were excluded. Opioid purchase data from January 1995 to March 2016 were retrieved from national registries.ResultsHigher preimplantation opioid doses associated with unsuccessful SCS (ROC: AUC = 0.66, p = 0.009), with 35 morphine milligram equivalents (MME)/day as the optimal cutoff value. All opioids were discontinued in 23% of patients with successful SCS, but in none of the patients with unsuccessful SCS (p = 0.004). Strong opioids were discontinued in 39% of patients with successful SCS, but in none of the patients with unsuccessful SCS (p = 0.04). Mean opioid dose escalated from 18 ± 4 MME/day to 36 ± 6 MME/day with successful SCS and from 22 ± 8 MME/day to 82 ± 21 MME/day with unsuccessful SCS (p < 0.001).ConclusionsHigher preimplantation opioid doses were associated with SCS failure, suggesting the need for opioid tapering before implantation. With continuous SCS therapy and no explantation or revision due to inadequate pain relief, 39% of FBSS patients discontinued strong opioids, and 23% discontinued all opioids. This indicates that SCS should be considered before detrimental dose escalation.     

缺牙间隙对美学区水平骨增量延期种植的临床效果影响研究

目的:评价不同缺牙间隙大小对上前牙区连续缺牙伴水平骨量不足、行水平骨增量延期种植的临床效果影响.方法:回顾性分析2013年1月～2019年6月期间,于烟台市口腔医院种植科就诊,上颌前牙连续缺失,行水平骨增量延期种植的患者,根据缺牙间隙分为两组,A组为2颗牙连续缺失,B组为3～6颗牙连续缺失.通过Mimics软件重建骨增量区3D模型,测量骨增量的体积及宽度;通过Image J软件测量平行投照根尖片种植体周围边缘骨丧失高度.使用SPSS 26.0软件,对测得的结果进行统计分析,P<0.05为差异具有统计学意义.结果:纳入44例患者,年龄18～60(平均38.52±12.56)岁.共计122个位点,植入94枚种植体,其中A组44枚,B组50枚.A、B组每牙位骨增量体积差异无统计学意义(P>0.05);A组每牙位骨增量宽度小于B组每牙位骨增量宽度(P<0.05);种植体周围骨质丧失高度随时间变化而增加(P<0.05);组别对种植体近中及远中骨边缘丧失高度的影响差异无统计学意义(P>0.05).结论:美学区水平骨增量延期种植可获得满意的临床效果,缺牙间隙对对骨增量体积及种植体周围边缘骨质稳定性无影响.     

Efficacy and safety of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) created using covered stents of different diameters: A systematic review and meta-analysis

PurposeThe purpose of this study was to make a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine the stent diameter (8 mm vs. 10 mm) that conveys better safety and clinical efficacy for transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS).Materials and methodsFour databases were used to identify clinical trials published from inception until March 2020. Data were extracted to estimate and compare one-year and three-year overall survivals, hepatic encephalopathy, variceal rebleeding, and shunt dysfunction rates between patients with 8 mm covered stents and those with 10 mm covered stents.ResultsFive eligible studies were selected, which included 489 patients (316 men, 173 women). The 8 mm covered stent group had higher efficacy regarding one-year or three-year overall survival (odds ratio [OR], 2.88; P = 0.003) and (OR, 1.81; P = 0.04) and lower hepatic encephalopathy (OR, 0.69; P = 0.04) compared with 10 mm covered stent group. There were no significant differences in variceal rebleeding rate (OR 0.80; P = 0.67). However, shunt dysfunction was lower in 10 mm covered stent group (OR, 2.26; P = 0.003).ConclusionsOur results suggest that the use of 8 mm covered stents should be preferred to that of 10 mm covered stents for TIPS placement when portal pressure is frequently monitored.     

Confounded association between proton pump inhibitor use and risk of biliary tract cancer: Result from three cohorts

Recent epidemiological studies suggested that proton pump inhibitor (PPI) use was associated with an increased risk of biliary tract cancer (BTC), however, confounders were not adequately controlled. Our study aimed to evaluate PPI use and subsequent risk of BTC and its subtypes in three well-established cohorts. We conducted a pooled analysis of the subjects free of cancers in UK Biobank (n = 463 643), Nurses' Health Study (NHS, n = 80 235) and NHS II (n = 95 869). Propensity score weighted Cox models were used to estimate marginal HRs of PPIs use on BTC risk, accounting for potential confounders. We documented 284 BTC cases in UK Biobank (median follow-up: 7.6 years), and 91 cases in NHS and NHS II cohorts (median follow-up: 15.8 years). In UK biobank, PPI users had a 96% higher risk of BTC compared to nonusers in crude model (HR 1.96, 95% CI 1.44-2.66), but the effect was attenuated to null after adjusting for potential confounders (HR 0.95, 95% CI 0.60-1.49). PPI use was not associated with risk of BTC in the pooled analysis of three cohorts (HR 0.93, 95% CI 0.60-1.43). We also observed no associations between PPI use with risk of intrahepatic (HR 1.00, 95% CI 0.49-2.04), extrahepatic bile duct (HR 1.09, 95% CI 0.52-2.27) and gallbladder cancers (HR 0.66, 95% CI 0.26-1.66) in UK Biobank. In summary, regular use of PPIs was not associated with the risk of BTC and its subtypes.     

潜伏期脑胎盘率对预测新生儿不良结局的价值

目的 探讨低危单胎的足月妊娠自然临产后，潜伏期脑胎盘率(CPR)对预测新生儿不良结局的价值。方法 选取2018年1月至2021年3月我院住院临产分娩的673例孕妇为研究对象，测量胎儿大脑中动脉、脐动脉血流参数，获得分娩结局及新生儿结局。参考既往研究得出的不同孕周CPR正常参考值百分位作为分组指标(CPR≤10%参考值定为低CPR)。比较低CPR组(72例)与正常CPR组(601例)两组妊娠结局、新生儿不良结局。结果 低CPR组与正常CPR组在孕妇年龄、孕龄、产次、孕期体质量增长、总产程、新生儿体质量的构成上差异均无统计学意义(P>0.05)。低CPR组因胎儿窘迫行剖宫产或助产发生率、新生儿任一不良结局发生率、新生儿不良结局率均高于正常CPR组，差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05)。低CPR预测新生儿不良结局的准确率为89.5%(602/673),敏感度为51.7%(15/29),特异度为91.1%(587/644)。结论 本研究数据显示，对于无并发症及合并症、低风险的单胎足月妊娠，潜伏期低CPR与新生儿不良结局相关。
