Different effects of mechanical embolus removal and intra-arterial thrombolysis on neural functional recovery in patients with acute middle cerebral artery occlusion

Objective:To study the different effects of mechanical embolus removal and intra-arterial thrombolysis on neural functional recovery in patients with acute middle cerebral artery occlusion.Methods: Patients with acute middle cerebral artery occlusion who were treated in the First Hospital of Yulin between September 2013 and October 2017 were selected and retrospectively studied, and the differences in reperfusion therapies in history data were referred to divide them into study group A and study group B who underwent mechanical embolus removal and intra-arterial thrombolysis respectively. The levels of neurocyte damage markers, apoptosis markers and stress markers in serum as well as the expression of Wnt pathway molecules in peripheral blood were determined before treatment and 24 h after treatment.Results: Compared with those of same group before treatment, serum NSE, S100B, VILIP1, sFas, sFasL, ET-1 and MDA levels as well as peripheral blood GSK3β, LC3-II and Beclin1 expression intensity of both groups were decreasing whereas serum BDNF, NTF, sLivin and SOD levels as well as peripheral bloodβ-catenin and mTOR expression intensity were increasing, and serum NSE, S100B, VILIP1, sFas, sFasL, ET-1 and MDA levels as well as peripheral blood GSK3β, LC3-II and Beclin1 expression intensity of study group A after treatment were lower than those of study group B whereas serum BDNF, NTF, sLivin and SOD levels as well as peripheral bloodβ-catenin and mTOR expression intensity were higher than those of study group B.Conclusion: Mechanical embolus removal for acute middle cerebral artery occlusion can be more effective than intra-arterial thrombolysis to reduce the nerve function damage as well as the corresponding oxidative stress and apoptosis.

Application of radioactive iodine-125 microparticles in hepatocellular carcinoma with portal vein embolus

BACKGROUND Radioactive iodine-125(125I)microparticle therapy is a new type of internal radiation therapy that has shown unique advantages in the treatment of malignant tumors,especially hepatocellular carcinoma.Patients with hepatocellular carcinoma frequently experience portal vein embolism,which exacerbates the difficulty and complexity of treatment.125I particles,used in local radiotherapy,can directly act on tumor tissue and reduce damage to surrounding healthy tissue.Through retrospective analysis,this study discussed the efficacy and safety of radioactive 125I particles in portal vein embolization patients with hepatocellular carcinoma in order to provide more powerful evidence supporting clinical treatment.AIM To investigate the effect of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization combined with portal vein 125I particle implantation in the treatment of primary liver cancer patients with portal vein tumor thrombus and its influence on liver function.METHODS The clinical data of 96 patients with primary liver cancer combined with portal vein tumor thrombus admitted to our hospital between January 2020 and December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.Fifty-two patients received treatment with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization and implantation of 125I particles in the portal vein(combination group),while 44 patients received treatment with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization alone(control group).The therapeutic effects on tumor lesions,primary liver cancer,and portal vein tumor embolisms were compared between the two groups.Changes in relevant laboratory indexes before and after treatment were evaluated.The t test was used to compare the measurement data between the two groups,and the χ^(2) test was used to compare the counting data between groups.RESULTS The tumor lesion response rate in the combination group(59.62%vs 38.64%)and the response rate of patients with primary liver cancer complicated with portal vein tumor thrombus(80.77%vs 59.09%)were significantly greater than those in the control group(χ^(2)=4.196,5.421;P=0.041,0.020).At 8 wk after surgery,the serum alpha-fetoprotein,portal vein main diameter,and platelet of the combined group were significantly lower than those of the control group,and the serum alanine aminotransferase,aspartate aminotransferase,and total bilirubin were significantly greater than those of the control group(t=3.891,3.291,2.330,3.729,3.582,4.126;P<0.05).The serum aspartate aminotransferase,alanine aminotransferase,and total bilirubin levels of the two groups were significantly greater than those of the same group 8 wk after surgery(P<0.05),and the peripheral blood platelet,alphafetoprotein,and main portal vein diameter were significantly less than those of the same group before surgery(P<0.05).CONCLUSION In patients with primary liver cancer and a thrombus in the portal vein,transcatheter arterial chemoembolization plus portal vein 125I implantation is more effective than transcatheter arterial chemoembolization alone.However,during treatment it is crucial to pay attention to liver function injury caused by transcatheter arterial chemoembolization.

Use of intra-arterial chemotherapy for retinoblastoma:results of a survey

·AIM: To obtain baseline knowledge about the current use of intra-arterial chemotherapy(SSOAIC) in centers worldwide.·METHODS: A survey including questions about the use of SSOAIC was emailed to retinoblastoma experts.·RESULTS:Seventy-nine(response rate 69.9%) doctors from 63 centers in 35 countries responded. Thirty-one centers from 19 countries use SSOAIC. Twelve performed more than 50 procedures. Melphalan is the most commonly used drug but 15 centers use more than one drug. First line therapy for advanced unilateral disease is the most common use of SSOAIC(74.2%). Centers with larger experience(】50 applications) were less likely using melphalan alone(P =0.06) and significantly more likely using SSOAIC in more situations such as second line in preference to radiotherapy P =0.05. Nineteen(61.2%)stated that SSOAIC improved their results and 21(77.8%)reported less toxicity compared to other treatments.Three centers reported that SSOAIC did not improve their results. There were regional variations in the use of SSOAIC which is used more frequently as secondary treatment in Europe compared to the USA and Japan.Ten centers identified cost is the major limiting factor for SSOAIC.· CONCLUSION: SSOAIC is used in an increasing number of centers worldwide with regional variations.Centers with more experience in SSOAIC use it in more situations including other drugs than melphalan. The majority of the centers using this technique reportedimproved results and few complications.

Efficacy of intra-arterial contrast-enhanced ultrasonography during transarterial chemoembolization with drug-eluting beads for hepatocellular carcinoma

AIM To assess the usefulness of intra-arterial contrastenhanced ultrasonography(IAUS) during transarterial chemoembolization(TACE) with drug-eluting beads(DEB) for hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).METHODS Thirty two patients with 39 HCC underwent DEB-TACE guided with IAUS, and examined by contrast-enhanced ultrasonography(CEUS) or dynamic CT after DEB-TACE were enrolled in this study. CEUS findings before DEBTACE and IAUS findings were compared. Treatments judged to be complete and incomplete for lesions were appropriate and insufficient, respectively. Findings on CEUS and/or dynamic CT performed 1, 3 and 6 mo after DEB-TACE were evaluated using m RECIST(CR/PR/SD/PD).RESULTS The treatments were complete and incomplete in 26 and 13 lesions, respectively. On imaging evaluation using CEUS and/or dynamic CT one month after treatment, 25 and 1 lesions were judged to be CR and PR, respectively, and at 6 mo after treatment, the results were CR, PR, SD and PD for 24, 1, 0 and 1 of these lesions, respectively, in the 26 completely treated lesions. Of the 13 lesions in which treatment was incomplete, the results on imaging at one month after treatment were CR, PR, SD and PD for 0, 6, 4 and 3 lesions, respectively. The overall CR rate at 6 mo after treatment was 61.5%(24/39).CONCLUSION A combination of DEB-TACE with IAUS can improve the therapeutic effects in patients with HCC.

Combined intra-arterial chemotherapy and intravitreal melphalan for the treatment of advanced unilateral retinoblastoma

●AIM:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of combined intraarterial chemotherapy(IAC)and intravitreal melphalan(IVM)for the treatment of advanced unilateral retinoblastoma.●METHODS:This retrospective study involved 30 consecutive eyes from 30 Chinese patients with advanced unilateral retinoblastoma.All patients were initially treated with IAC combined with IVM.The clinical status and complications were recorded at each visit.●RESULTS:The International Intraocular Retinoblastoma Classification groups were D in 23 eyes and E in 7 eyes.All eyes showed severe cloud vitreous seeds at the first visit.The mean number of IAC cycles and intravitreal injections was 3.2(range,3-4)and 6(range,1-14),respectively.The median follow-up time was 29 mo(range,7-36 mo).Treatment success with regression of the retinal tumor and vitreous seeds was achieved in 29 of 30 eyes(96.7%).Globe salvage was attained in 93.3%(28/30)eyes,and enucleation(n=2)was per formed due to neovascular glaucoma and persistent vitreous hemorrhage.Complications included retinal pigment epithelium(RPE)atrophy(n=13;43%),mild lens opacity(n=7;23%),vitreous hemorrhage(n=5;17%)and rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(n=1;3%).No extraocular tumor extension or metastasis occurred.●CONCLUSION:Combined IAC and IVM is effective and safe for the treatment of advanced unilateral retinoblastoma.

Efficacy of second-course intra-arterial chemotherapy in children for advanced retinoblastoma recurrence after intra-arterial chemotherapy

Purpose: The present study determined the efficacy and toxicity of second-course intra-arterial chemotherapy(IAC) in advanced retinoblastoma(RB) recurrence in children following failed initial IAC. Materials and Methods: A total of 24 child patients with unilateral or bilateral intra-ocular advanced RB(IIRC Group D and Group E) undergoing second-course IAC treatment after initial intra-arterial chemotherapy between September 2011 and November 2016 were enrolled. Global salvage, ocular adverse events, and systemic adverse events were assessed. Results: Following second-course IAC, 15(62.5%) showed complete control at 34 months follow-up, while 8 cases(33.3%) failed the treatment and 1 patient with metastatic disease(4.2%) eventually died of brain metastasis after refusing treatment. Ocular adverse events included eyelid edema(n=12), ptosis(n=5), forehead erythema(n-5), enophthalmos(n=3), and cataract(n=2). None of the patients had systemic adverse events, such as stroke or sepsis. Also, no secondary neoplasms and technical complications were observed. Conclusion: Second-course IAC is a potential alternative to enucleation in children with advanced RB, who fail an initial course of IAC. However, patients with advanced RB should be managed at experienced centers in order to consider all the alternatives before enucleation.

A mimic of soft tissue infection: intra-arterial injection drug use producing hand swelling and digital ischemia

BACKGROUND: Inadvertent intra-arterial injection of illicit substances is a known complication of injection drug use and can lead to severe complications, including infection, ischemia and compartment syndrome. Identifying complications of intra-arterial injection can be difficult, as clinical manifestations overlap with other more common conditions such as cellulitis and soft tissue infection, and a history of injection drug use is frequently not disclosed.METHODS: A 37-year-old male patient presented with 24 hours of right hand pain, erythema and swelling. Despite classic "track marks", he denied a history of injection drug use, and vascular insults were not initially considered. After failing to respond to three days of aggressive treatment for suspected deep-space infection, an arteriogram demonstrated findings consistent with digital ischemia of embolic etiology.RESULTS: As a result of the delay in diagnosis, the lesion was not amenable to reperfusion and the patient required amputation of the distal digit.CONCLUSION: Practitioners should be alert to the possibility of intra-arterial injection and resulting complications when evaluating unusual extremity infections or unexplained ischemic symptoms, even in the absence of a definite history of injection drug use.

Prognostic value of post-treatment ^(18)F-FDG PET/CT for advanced head and neck cancer after combined intra-arterial chemotherapy and radiotherapy

Objective：To clarify the prognostic value of post-treatment 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose （FDG） positron emission tomography （PET）/computed tomography （CT） in patients with advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma （HNSCC） after combined intra-arterial chemotherapy and radiotherapy （IACR）.Methods：Thirty-six patients with HNSCC who underwent IACR were recruited.The period from the end of IACR to the last post-treatment 18F-FDG PET/CT examination was 8-12 weeks.Both patient-based and lesion-based analyses were used to evaluate the PET/CT images.For lesion-based analysis,36 regions （12 lesions of recurrences and 24 scars at primary sites） were selected.The Kaplan-Meier method was used to assess the overall survival （OS） stratified by 18F-FDG uptake or visual interpretation results.Results：Twelve patients with recurrence were identified by six months after IACR.The sensitivity and specificity in the patient-based analysis were 67％ （8/12） and 88％ （21/24）,respectively.The mean OS was estimated to be 12.1 months （95％ CI,6.3-18.0 months） for the higher maximum standardized uptake value （SUVmax） group （n=7） and 44.6 months （95％ CI,39.9-49.3 months） for the lower SUVmax group （n=29）.OS in the higher SUVmax group （cut-off point,6.1） or positive visual interpretation group was significantly shorter than that in the lower SUVmax or negative visual interpretation group （P＜0.001 and P＜0.05,respectively）.Conclusions：The SUVmax and visual interpretation of HNSCC on post-IACR 18F-FDG PET/CT can provide prognostic survival estimates.

Survival in unresectable sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma treated with concurrent intra-arterial cisplatin and radiation

We report the successful use of RADPLAT to treat a patient with an unresectable T4N0 sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma. This patient received 4 cycles of weekly intra-arterial cisplatin together with thiosulfate infusion with concurrent radiation therapy. Radiation therapy was given in 28 daily fractions to 54 Gy using intensity-modulated radiation therapy followed by a hypofractionated stereotactic boost of 3 fractions to 13 Gy to a total dose of 67 Gy in 31 fractions to the nasal sinus and bilateral neck. Intra-arterial cisplatin was administered using a bilateral approach due to the midline site of this tumor. Within days of the first intra-arterial cisplatin, there was an obvious decrease in tumor size. She has been followed with magnetic resonance imaging and positron emission tomography, and remains disease-free 47 mo post-treatment. Centers with expertise in intra-arterial chemotherapy could consider the RADPLAT approach for patients with unresectable sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma.

Intra-arterial chrono-chemotherapy for liver metastasis arised from colorectal cancer

Objective To evaluate the toxic effects and efficacy of the intra-arterial chrono-chemotherapy on patients with liver metastasis arised from colorectal cancer. Methods Chemotherapy of 42 patients were randomly divided into group A (n = 20) with continuously constant arterial infusion, and group B (n = 22) with arterial chrono-modulated infusion. And the toxic effects and efficacy of two groups were compared. Results A significant difference was found in the toxic effects of digestive system between the two groups. The treatment response was similar in the two groups. Conclusions Intra-arterial chrono-chemotherapy may decrease the toxic effects and improve the life quality of these patients.

Accidental Intra-Arterial Injection during Test Dose of Injection of Benzyl Penicillin: Complications and Management—A Case Report

An 18 years old female patient was given a test dose of Benzyl penicillin in the Antecubital Area on the right forearm by a staff nurse of the department. After the injection, the patient complained of severe pain in the right forearm distal to the injection site. This was followed by blanching of the right forearm and hand. She was immediately heparinised followed by other symptomatic treatments. After 12 hours, a bluish discoloration developed on the hand, both on dorsal and palmar aspect, sparing the thumb. This recovered with medication, except the late development of dry gangrene of the tip of distal phalanx of the little finger which got shrivelled later on. Color Doppler flow study, echocardiography, and CT angiography of the right upper limb were done. Understanding of the pathogenesis and prompt action can help in saving a limb. Education of the medical professionals involved in administering injection is necessary so that they become aware of abnormal course or anomalous anatomy of vessels of upper limb. This can help to prevent the complications.

Successful Treatment of Intra-Arterial Peplomycin Infusion for Recurrent Oral Florid Papillomatosis

A 56-year-old woman had noticed the erosion of oral mucosa and tongue 8 years ago. The mucosal lesions had been initially diagnosed as oral lichen planus and resistant to various treatments with prednisolone, etretinate and mizoribine and so on. One year ago, rapidly growing verrucous lesion occurred on her upper lip. Although we administered intralesional radiation therapy, the tumor recurred and new whitish lesions on the buccal mucosa and hard palate occurred 9 months after treatment. We confirmed an anatomical blood supply to the tumors by a fluorescent real-time imaging system and subsequently administered the intra-arterial infusion of peplomycin through retrograde catheters from bilateral superficial temporal arteries under the final diagnosis as oral florid papillomatosis (OFP). The tumors were dramatically shrunk and did not recur 16 months after treatment. OFP is known as clinically multiple whitish and verrucous lesions over the oral cavity and lip and a subtype of SCC with high differentiation. We suppose that an intra-arterial infusion therapy of peplomycin should be considered as the curative treatment for OFP.

Intra-Arterial Chemotherapy for Retinoblastoma

The management of retinoblastoma is challenging and complex. Preservation of the eyeball as well as vision, with minimum morbidity, is the aim in the initial stages. This has been made possible by the use of chemotherapy that is targeted to the eye in the form of selective intravitreal and intra-arterial chemotherapy which has shown promising results. The efficacy and safety of intra- arterial chemotherapy have been reported by many specialized centers. The aim of this article was to review the role of intraarterial chemotherapy in the management of retinoblastoma and its clinical outcomes. In addition, we will review the possible complications of the procedure. We were able to collect articles relevant to our research objectives by reviewing the title and abstract of each article. Irrelevant articles and those that did not meet the inclusion criteria were excluded. This yielded a total of 19 studies. The results indicated that intraarterial chemotherapy is an effective and new modality of treatment for retinoblastoma to salvage the eyeball and helps in the prevention of enucleation with minimal local and systemic complications that are mostly transient. For future work, we recommend conducting more prospective studies with large samples and the long duration of follow-up. Also, we recommend future studies focusing on assessing visual acuity, as most of the currently available studies did not assess the visual acuity, making the judgment on vision preservation with IAC difficult.

Effect of neoadjuvant chemotherapy on locally advanced cervical cancer by internal iliac arterial infusion

Objective:To evaluate the effect of preoperative chemotherapy on locally advanced cervical cancer by internal iliac arterial infusion.Methods:Sixty two patients with bulky or locally advanced cervical cancer from 1999 to 2004 were underwent internal iliac arte- rial infusion chemotherapy by using Seldinger technique.Combined regimens were applied in- cluding cisplatin as the major drug.Two weeks later,all patients received radical hysterectomy. Results:The local tumor regression rate was 93.55%.Postoperative pathologic examination showed that no cervical tumor residue in stumps were found in 61 of 62 patients who underwent radical hysterectomy.Large quantity of necrotic tissue appeared on primary tumor.In 16 patients with positive lymph nodes,15 demonstrated necrotic lymph nodes.Conclusion:Internal iliac ar- terial infusion chemotherapy could effectively reduce tumor volume,increase surgical success rate and decrease lymph nodes and subclinical metastasis rates.

Multimodal treatments of right gastroepiploic arterial leiomyosarcoma with hepatic metastasis:A case report and review of the literature

Leiomyosarcoma of an artery is very rare, and cases with hepatic metastasis are even rarer. We describe a case of a 70-year-old man who after follow up due to rectal cancer, presented with an intra-abdominal hypervascular mass and a hepatic mass. After surgical resection, it was diagnosed as a leiomyosarcoma of the right gastroepiploic artery with hepatic metastasis. Multiple metastases had recurred at the liver. He has survived more than 53 mo through multimodal treatments(three surgical resections, radiofrequency ablation, transarterial chemoembolization, chemotherapies, and targeted therapy). Multimodal treatments, including active surgical resection, may behelpful in the treatment of aggressive diseases such as arterial leiomyosarcoma with metastasis.

Role of Intra-Aortic Balloon Pump in Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass —A Vettath Modification

Objective: Hemodynamic deterioration during positioning of the heart has been the most critical complication of off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery. Pre-operative use of intra-aortic balloon pump has been shown to prevent this complication in high risk patients. The role of balloon pump in high risk patients has been questioned by our group. We modified the role of balloon pump in our patients, thus avoiding the conversion to cardiopulmonary bypass. Methods: 4063 off-pump coronary bypass surgeries were performed by a single surgeon in our center, over thirteen years. 130 intra-aortic balloons used between July 2002 and December 2015 were removed from the the-ater, once the distal anastomosis was performed. We studied this group of patients for—time and need for insertion, duration of balloon used, local insertion problems and survival. Results: Initially, we inserted intra-aortic balloons in high risk patients. We observed that, patients with low ejection fraction and patients with critical left main coronary artery disease were not the ones who actually needed balloon pump support. It was the patients who had ongoing ischemia, with preserved left ventricular function, and ST depression intra-operatively, who needed balloon pump support to perform complete anatomical revascularization. Conclusions: Intra-aortic balloon pump has helped us to position the heart without hemodynamic instability, thereby avoiding conversion to cardio-pulmonary bypass. This enabled us to perform off-pump surgery in virtually all areas of the heart, thus maintaining perfect hemodynamics.

Preoperative Intra-Aortic Balloon Counterpulsation in Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Patients with Severe Left Ventricular Dysfunction

Background: The intra-aortic balloon pumping (IABP) is the most used ventricular mechanical assist device. In recent years, the preoperative use in patients with severe ventricular dysfunction presents itself as a great benefic strategy to the postoperative recovery. This paper aim is to evaluate the IABP post-operative benefit in patients with severe ventricular dysfunction. Methods: From January 2011 to March 2016, 125 patients underwent a coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) with cardiopulmonary bypass and preoperative IABP in Teaching Hospital of the ABC Medical School and Hospital Estadual Mario Covas. The inclusion criteria were the presence of severe ischemic cardiomyopathy with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) less than or equal to 40%, estimated by Doppler echocardiography using the Simpson method. The preoperative LVEF was 30.25% ± 8.53% and the diastolic diameter of the left ventricle (LVDD) 67.75 ± 16.37 mm. IABP was installed approximately 15 hours before the surgery. Results: The patients required the IABP for 2.4 ± 1.58 days, and vasoactive drugs, 4.8 ± 2.12 days. We performed 3.2 ± 1.9 grafts per patient and the total length of stay was 07 ± 5.52 days. Cardiopulmonary bypass time was 67 ± 10.95 minutes and anoxia time, 46.4 ± 10.06 minutes. Twelve patients (9.6%) had pneumonia and four (3.2%), atrial fibrillation. We observed a LVDD reduction to 63 ± 16.26 (p = 0.068) and LVEF enhancement to 36.50 ± 16.86 (p = 0.144). The data were analyzed statistically according to the Wilcoxon test. There were no deaths. Conclusion: The initial experience of the authors with the preoperative IABP in patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction suggests great benefit in post-operative recovery with im-provement of LVEF and reduction of LVDD.

术后经导管动脉化疗栓塞对原发性肝细胞癌合并门静脉Ⅰ型癌栓患者预后的影响

目的探讨术后经导管动脉化疗栓塞(TACE)对原发性肝细胞癌合并门静脉Ⅰ型癌栓患者预后的影响。方法回顾性纳入2016—2020年在北京市海淀医院及广西医科大学第一附属医院行肝细胞癌合并门静脉Ⅰ型癌栓手术切除的45例患者,其中28例行TACE者作为观察组,17例未行TACE者作为对照组。采用Kaplan-Meier曲线分析两组患者的生存情况,单因素log-rank检验和多因素Cox回归分析探讨影响患者生存时间的独立危险因素。结果单因素log-rank检验显示,年龄、体重指数、术前甲胎蛋白水平、肝硬化、肿瘤直径、巴塞罗那肝癌分期、术后行TACE为肝癌合并门静脉Ⅰ型癌栓患者术后生存时间的影响因素(P<0.05)。多因素Cox回归分析显示,术前甲胎蛋白≥400μg/L为肝癌合并门静脉Ⅰ型癌栓患者术后生存时间的独立危险因素(P<0.05),而体重指数≥24 kg/m2、术后行TACE为其独立保护因素(P<0.05)。结论对伴有门静脉Ⅰ型癌栓的原发性肝细胞癌患者,术后行TACE可延长生存时间,改善预后。

Current Status of Intra-Vascular Imaging during Coronary Interventions

Most important interventional application of IVUS is plaque assessment, vessel sizing and stent implantation guidance. Image guided PCI is associated with decreased incidence of stent thrombosis and MACE rate as evident in recently published meta-analysis of IVUS guided PCI studies. Many imaging studies have shown very clearly under-expansion, edge-dissection, tissue-prolapse, mal apposition, and geographical miss are associated with adverse events following DES implantation, and IVI guides in optimization of stent implantation by identifying and rectifying these predictors of DES outcomes.

多模式CT指导下动脉溶栓对急性致残性非大血管脑梗死患者氧化应激、炎症反应及神经功能的影响

目的探讨多模式CT指导下动脉溶栓在急性致残性非大血管脑梗死患者治疗中的应用价值。方法回顾性分析2022年1月至2023年12月收治的急性致残性非大血管脑梗死患者80例的临床资料,根据治疗方案分为观察组和对照组各40例。观察组行多模式CT指导下应用动脉溶栓,对照组行静脉溶栓。比较2组临床疗效、溶栓前后神经功能损伤程度(NIHSS评分)、氧化应激反应指标[超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GSH-Px)、丙二醛(MDA)]、炎症反应指标[白细胞介素-6(IL-6)、肿瘤坏死因子-α(TNF-α)、超敏C反应蛋白(hs-CRP)]、血管再通情况及不良事件发生率。结果2组总有效率比较差异无统计学意义(P>0.05);溶栓后2 h、24 h、7 d及30 d,观察组NIHSS评分低于对照组(P<0.05);溶栓后7 d及30 d,观察组SOD、GSH-Px水平高于对照组,MDA、IL-6、hs-CRP、TNF-α水平低于对照组(P<0.01);2组血管再通率、不良事件发生率比较差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论多模式CT指导下动脉溶栓与静脉溶栓效果及安全性相当,但动脉溶栓能减轻炎症反应及氧化应激损伤,改善神经功能。
