Background: Most children in need of cardiac pacemakers remain dependent on the function of the permanent
from childhood to adulthood. We sought to evaluate and compare the function between epicardial and endocardial
pacemakers in pediatric groups with different conditions. Methods: Between 2012 and 2018, this single-canter study
evaluated 44 pediatric patients with indications for epicardial or endocardial pacemakers. Results: The 2 groups, at a
median age of 5 (0.1–16) years, were compared concerning the characteristics of the leads used (n = 80: bipolar,
unipolar, steroid-eluting, and non–steroid-eluting), survival data, and complications. The reason for pacemaker
implantation was congenital complete heart block in 11 (25%) cases and postoperative heart block in 33 (75%) cases.
The commonest congenital heart disease accompanied by postoperative block was the ventricular septal defect. In
the endocardial lead group, the mean ventricular pacing threshold immediately after the implantation and during
the follow-up was less than that in the epicardial lead group (0.75 vs. 0.81 V; P = 0.01 and 0.8 vs. 2.4 V; P = 0.001).
During the follow-up, the mean battery longevity was better in the endocardial group (last visit: 6.7 endocardial vs.
3.3 years epicardial). Lead failure was commoner in the epicardial pacemaker, and chronic high-pacing threshold
pattern was seen in 14 patients in this group. After 3 years, freedom from lead failure was 94% and 63% in the
endocardial and epicardial leads. Conclusions: Pacemakers with endocardial bipolar steroid-eluting leads showed
better lead characteristics regarding survival and battery longevity than epicardial pacemakers without these lead
characteristics. An appropriate pacemaker type should be selected based on the patient’s condition. 相似文献

BackgroundBariatric surgery is remarkably effective in achieving weight loss and improving obesity-related co-morbidities; however, efforts still continue to improve its long-term outcomes. Particularly, banded Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) has been scrutinized in comparison to standard (nonbanded) RYGB in terms of benefits and postoperative complications.ObjectivesThis study aims to compare the safety and efficacy of banded versus nonbanded RYGB.SettingMeta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs).MethodsA meta-analysis of high-quality studies that compared banded and nonbanded RYGB was conducted through February 2019 by systematically searching multiple electronic databases. Published RCTs comparing these 2 procedures were included to pool the data on excess weight loss, food tolerability, and postoperative complications.ResultsThree RCTs were eligible to be included in this meta-analysis, comprising a total of 494 patients (247 in each group). Two of the RCTs provided 2-year postoperative data, and 1 study reported 5-year outcome. Age ranged from 21 to 50 years, and body mass index ranged from 42 to 65 kg/m2. Percentage of excess weight loss was significantly greater with banded RYGB than with nonbanded RYGB (mean difference 5.63%; 95% CI 3.26–8.00; P < .05). Postoperative food intolerance, emesis, and dysphagia were more common after banded RYGB (odds ratio 3.76; 95% CI 2.27–6.24; P < .001). Nevertheless, major postoperative complications did not significantly differ between the 2 groups.ConclusionFindings of this meta-analysis of RCTs indicate that in a medium-term follow-up, excess weight loss with banded RYGB would be 5% greater than that with the nonbanded RYGB (about 1 point difference in body mass index) at the expense of more food intolerance and postoperative vomiting; however, the frequency of postoperative complications would not be significantly different. 相似文献

Background
The Oklahoma Trauma Registry (OTR) collects data from all state-licensed acute care hospitals. This study investigates trends and outcomes of trauma in Oklahoma using OTR.Methods
107,549 patients (2005–2014) with major severity and one of the following criteria were included: length of hospital stay ≥48?h, dead on arrival or death in the hospital, hospital transfer, ICU admission, or surgery on the head, chest, abdomen, or vascular system. Patient characteristics, mechanisms of injury, and outcomes of trauma were analyzed.Results
Hospital admissions due to falls increased with an annual percent change of 4.0% (95%CI: 3.1%–4.9%) while hospital admissions due to motor vehicle crashes decreased. The number of overall deaths per year remained stable except for the fall-related deaths, which increased proportionate to the increase in the incidence of fall. Fall-related mortality was 4.2% and intracranial bleeding was present in 60% in these patients.Conclusion
Falls are significantly increasing as a mechanism of trauma admissions and trauma-related deaths in Oklahoma. Analysis of state-based trauma registries can identify trends in etiologies of injuries and may indicate a reference point to prioritize preventive plans. 相似文献5.

This prospective study aimed to compare the value of fine needle aspiration (FNA) cytology (FNAC) and flow cytometric immunophenotyping (FCI) with histopatopathology (HP) in the diagnosis and classification of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Twenty-nine excised lymph nodes suspected of NHL were evaluated using FNAC, FCI, and HP. Specimens were divided into two equal parts; one for HP and the other for FNAC and FCI. Results were compared in terms of diagnosis (malignant, benign or reactive, and metastatic) and NHL class. With combined FNAC/FCI, 11 (37.9%) cases were diagnosed as NHL, 11 cases (37.9%) as reactive lymph node, six cases (20.6%) as Hodgkin's lymphoma, and one case (3.4%) as metastasis. HP revealed nine cases (31%) of NHL, five cases (17.2%) of reactive lymph nodes and all the diagnosed metastatic and Hodgkin's lymphoma. Considering histology as a gold standard method in diagnosis, the sensitivity, specificity, PPV and NPV of FNAC/FCI in differentiate malignant and benign lesion were 73.9%, 83.3%, 94.4%, and 45.5%, respectively and in differentiate NHL from others were 75%, 93.8%, 90%, and 83.3%, respectively. Cytology and HP in addition to FCI and HP are significantly different from determination of NHL lesions point of view (P = 0.001 and P < 0.0001, respectively). However, FCI can be considered as an adjunctive method for Cytology especially because Cytology is not competent enough to differentiate between benign lesions and Lymphoma. Additionally, FCI is shown to be an accurate method in classifying NHL. 相似文献

This case is a rare aspect of inguinal hernia. The patient was admitted with a 10-day pain of right groin and a past history of an inguinal hernia which was irreducible at the time of admission. In the operating room, the hernia sac was opened which included a perforated and gangrenous appendix that is called Amyand's hernia. The patient underwent appendectomy and herniorrhaphy at the same operation. 相似文献

Production of abnormal hemoglobin (HbS) in sickle‐cell disease (SCD) results in its polymerization in deoxygenated conditions and in sickled‐RBC formation. Dense RBCs (DRBCs), defined as density >1.11 and characterized by increased rigidity are absent in normal AA subjects, but present at percentages that vary of a patient to another remaining stable throughout adulthood for each patient. Polymerized HbS has reduced affinity for oxygen, demonstrated by the rightward shift of the oxygen‐dissociation curve, leading to disturbances in oxygen transport. Ninety‐two SCD patients' total RBCs were separated into LightDRBC (LRBC) (d < 1.11 g/mL) and DRBC fractions. Venous blood partial oxygen pressure and RBC‐fraction–deoxygenation and –reoxygenation Hb–oxygen‐equilibrium curves were determined. All patients took a 6‐minute walking test (6MWT); 10 had results before and after >6 months on hydroxyurea. 6MWT time with SpO2 < 88% (TSpO2 < 88) assessed the physiological impact of exertion. Elevated mean corpuscular hemoglobin (Hb) concentrations, decreased %HbF, and 2,3‐bisphosphoglycerates in DRBCs modulated Hb–oxygen affinity. Deoxygenation and reoxygenation Hb–oxygen equilibrium curves differed between normal Hb AA and SS RBCs and between LRBCs and DRBCs, with rightward shifts confirming HbS‐polymerization's role in affinity loss. In bivariate analyses, 50% Hb saturation correlated positively with %DRBCs (P < 0.0001, r2 = 0.34) and negatively with %HbF (P < 0.0001, r2 = 0.25). The higher the %DRBCs, the longer the TSpO288 (P = 0.04). Hydroxyurea was associated with significantly shorter TSpO2 < 88 (P = 0.01). We report that the %DRBCs directly affects SCD patients' SpO2 during exertion; hydroxyurea improves oxygen affinity and lowers the %DRBCs. Am. J.
