A Pilot First-in-Human Study of Embrace,a Polyethylene Glycol-Based Liquid Embolic Agent,in the Embolization of Malignant and Benign Hypervascular Tumors

PurposeTo investigate the safety and efficacy of an aqueous polyethylene glycol-based liquid embolic agent, Embrace Hydrogel Embolic System (HES), in the treatment of benign and malignant hypervascular tumors.Materials and MethodsA prospective, single-arm, multicenter study included 8 patients, 5 males and 3 females, with a median age of 58.5 years (30–85 years), who underwent embolization in 8 tumors between October 2019 and May 2020. Technical success was defined as successful delivery of HES to the index vessel, with disappearance of >90% of the targeted vascular enhancement or, for portal vein embolization, occlusion of the portal branches to the liver segments for future resection. The volume of HES administered, ease of use (5 point Likert scale), administration time, and adverse events (AEs) were recorded. Evaluation was performed at 7, 30, and 90 days via clinical assessment and blood testing, and follow-up imaging was performed at 30 days.ResultsEight patients were enrolled, and 10 embolizations were performed in 8 lesions. Tumors included hepatocellular carcinoma (n = 4), renal angiomyolipoma (n = 3), and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (n = 1). Technical success was 100%, and the average ease of use was 3.3 ± 1.0 SD. The HES delivery time was 1–28 minutes (median, 16.5 minutes), and the HES volume injected was 0.4–4.0 mL (median, 1.3 mL). All patients reached 30-day follow-up with imaging, and 6 patients reached 90-day follow-up. There were 3 serious AEs in 2 patients that were unrelated to the embolic agent.ConclusionHES resulted in a 100% embolization technical success rate. The product ease of use was acceptable, and no target vessel recanalization was noted on follow-up imaging at 30 days.

A new mouse model for the neurodevelopmental ciliopathy Joubert syndrome

Recent recognition of the key role of primary cilia in orchestrating human development and of the dire consequences of their dysfunction on human health has placed this small organelle in the spotlight. While the causal link between mutations in ciliary genes and central nervous system malformations and dysfunction is well established, the mechanisms by which primary cilia dysfunction acts on development and function of the CNS remain partly unknown. The recent article by Bashford and Subramanian in The Journal of Pathology describes a new mouse model for the neurodevelopmental ciliopathy Joubert syndrome, supporting a role for ciliary-mediated Hedgehog signaling on proliferation, survival, and differentiation of cerebellar granule cell progenitors. © 2019 Pathological Society of Great Britain and Ireland.

术中电生理动态监护下显微手术切除椎管神经鞘瘤（附65例报告）

目的 探讨术中电生理监护对椎管神经鞘瘤显微手术中的作用及意义，提高对椎管内神经鞘瘤的治疗水平。方法 回顾性分析65例术中电生理动态监护下，显微手术切除椎管内神经鞘瘤。结果 治愈60例（占92．3％），好转5例（占7．7％），无死亡；肿瘤全切62例，次全切除3例，全切率95．4％。结论 常规动态电生理监测下显微手术切除椎管神经鞘瘤，能保全脊髓神经的功能，减少副损伤，提高手术安全性；显微手术有助于提高肿瘤全切率，可有效减少术后复发。对影响脊柱稳定性的行脊柱融合内固定。     

糖化血红蛋白及糖化血清蛋白与糖尿病肾功能衰竭患者的血糖监测

糖化血红蛋白(Hb)A1c是血糖监测的苇要指标,反映检测前2～3个月的平均血糖水平.慢性肾功能衰竭(CRF)患者存在贫血、酸中毒、氧化应激、胰岛素抵抗、血液透析及促红细胞生成素(EPO)的应用等因素,对HbA1c的测定会造成影响.糖化血清蛋白(GSP)反映检测前2～3周的平均血糖水平,仅受血浆蛋白的影响,几乎不受血红蛋白和EPO治疗等以上因素的影响,且对短时间内的血糖变化更为敏感.将GSP作为糖尿病肾功能衰竭患者血糖监测指标可能比HbA1c更理想.     

Turner氏综合征的临床与骨改变分析(附15例报告)

目的通过对15例有详细的临床及影像资料的Turner氏综合征分析,探讨先天性卵巢发育不良综合征(Turner)的临床与骨改变特点。方法收集15例Turner氏综合征临床及骨骼X线平片,分析其表现。结果染色体核型分3型,第1型45,X,8例;第2型46,XX,5例;第3型46,XX/45,X,2例。X线表现有:骨质稀疏14例,掌骨征阳性8例,指骨优势9例,肘外翻10例,脊柱骨化不良5例,足趾趾节短9例,颅底凹陷11例。结论Turner氏综合征患者最终身高明显低于正常人群,智力低下,性发育不全。X线表现典型,骨改变对临床的诊断具有主要参考价值。     

颅脑损伤患者脑疝前驱期特征性临床征象的研究

目的分析总结外伤性脑疝前驱期特征性临床征象及意义。方法回顾分析我科近5年238例脑疝发生前2h内的临床表现和辅助检查特点，并与同期198例未发生脑疝的重型颅脑损伤患者进行对比分析。结果脑疝组前驱期征象如昏迷加深、烦躁加重、尿失禁、侧脑室和外侧裂受压变窄伴脑基底池受压变窄、生命体征改变具有特征性，其发生率明显高于非脑疝组，两组差异有显著性意义（P〈0．01）。结论颅脑损伤患者出现脑疝前驱期特征性临床征象应作为超早期开颅的重要依据，是特殊的、迫切的手术指征。
