Drug-coated balloons for treating de novo lesions in large coronary vessels:A case report

BACKGROUND Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty,while an effective intervention,can frequently lead to acute occlusion with severe consequences.Although clinical trials have demonstrated the efficacy of drug-coated balloons(DCB)in treating acute coronary artery occlusion and in preventing restenosis,there has been limited exploration on the use of DCB in treating de novo lesions in large vessels.Currently,DCB are only recommended for patients with small vessel lesions and in-stent restenosis lesions,those at high risk of bleeding,and other special groups of patients.CASE SUMMARY This report presents a case of successful drug-coated balloon treatment of de novo lesions in large coronary vessels.Postoperatively,the patient demonstrated favorable recovery,with subsequent examination results revealing no significant differences from the previous examination.CONCLUSION The successful treatment of the patient in our case highlights the potential of DCB in the treatment of de novo lesions in large coronary vessels.

Ice Resistance Assessment for a Large Size Vessel Running in a Narrow Ice Channel Behind an Icebreaker

Large size vessels sailing in continuous level ice and broken ice of high concentration are mostly assisted by icebreakers.This is done in order to provide for fast transportation through the North Sea Route and safe operation in extreme ice conditions.Currently,new large size gas and oil carriers and container ships are being designed and built with beams much greater than the beams of existing icebreakers.At the same time,no mathematical description exists for the breaking mechanism of ice channel edges,when such vessels move under icebreaker escort.This paper suggests a simple method for assessment of the ice resistance in the case of a large ship running in an icebreaker channel;the method is based on modification of well-known semi-empirical methods for calculation of the ice resistance to ships in level and broken ice.The main feature of the proposed calculation scheme consists in that different methods are applied to estimate the ice resistance in broken ice and due to breaking of level ice edges.The combination of these methods gives a deliverable ice resistance of a large size vessel moving under icebreaker assistance in a newly made ice channel.In general,proposed method allows to define the speed of a carrier moving in an ice channel behind a modern linear icebreaker and could be applied at the ship design stage and during development of the marine transportation system.The paper also discusses the ways for further refinement of the assessment procedure suggested.

Nine-year clinical outcomes of drug-eluting stents vs. bare metal stents for large coronary vessel lesions

Objectives To evaluate the very long-term safety and effectiveness of drug-eluting stents （DES） compared to bare-metal stents （BMS） for patients with large coronary vessels. Methods From April 2004 to October 2006, 2407 consecutive patients undergoing de novo lesion percutaneous coronary intervention with reference vessel diameter greater than or equal to 3.5 mm at Fu Wai Hospital in Beijing, China, were prospectively enrolled into this study. We obtained 9-year clinical outcomes including death, myocardial infarction （MI）, thrombosis, target lesion revascularization （TLR）, target vessel revascularization （TVR）, and major adverse cardiac events （MACE, the composite of death, MI, and TVR）. We performed Cox＇s proportional-hazards models to assess relative risks of all the outcome measures after propensity match. Results After propensity scoring, 514 DES-treated patients were matched to 514 BMS-treated patients. The patients treated with BMS were associated with higher risk ofTLR （HR： 2.55, 95%CI： 1.520-4.277, P = 0.0004） and TVR （HR： 1.889, 95%CI： 1.185-3.011, P = 0.0075）, but the rates of death/MI and MACE were not statistically different. All Academic Research Consortium definition stent thrombosis at 9-year were comparable in the two groups. Conclusions During long-term follow-up through nine years, use of DES in patients with large coronary arteries was still associated with significant reductions in the risks of TLR and TVR.

The Use of Anti-Platelet and/or Anticoagulant Agents in the Prevention of Large Vessel Vasculitis-Associated Ischemic Complications: A Meta-Analysis

Objective: To determine the effectiveness of antiplatelet and/or anticoagulant therapy (AP/AC) at reducing ischemic events in patients with Large Vessel Vasculitis (LVV). Methods: We performed a random effects meta-analysis of studies examining antiplatelet and/or anticoagulant therapy (AP/AC) and ischemic events in Takayasu’s Arteritis (TAK) or Giant Cell Arteritis (GCA). Severe ischemic events were defined as stroke, ischemic ocular manifestations and claudication symptoms. Any ischemic event included jaw claudication in addition to the above manifestations. Results: Seven studies met inclusion criteria: 1 TAK and 6 GCA. The majority of patients (>80%) were treated with ASA and treatment was initiated prior to diagnosis of LVV. Risk of severe and any ischemic event in patients with LVV treated with AP/AC versus no treatment was not significantly different (OR 0.570, 95% CI 0.243, 1.340 and OR 0.594, 95% CI 0.248, 1.421, respectively). For studies with follow-up data (26-76 months), AP/AC was protective for severe ischemic events (OR 0.18, 95% CI 0.04, 0.83). Findings were similar when excluding studies that did not account for potential confounders, such as cardiovascular risk factors. Conclusion: At follow-up, antiplatelet therapy significantly decreases ischemic events in patients with LVV. However, in most cases of GCA, the treatment was initiated prior to the diagnosis of vasculitis. The benefit of initiating anti-platelet therapy at the time of GCA diagnosis remains unclear.

Large vessel vasculitis with rare presentation of acute rhabdomyolysis:A case report and review of literature

BACKGROUND Musculoskeletal involvement in primary large vessel vasculitis(LVV),including giant cell arteritis and Takayasu's arteritis(TAK),tends to be subacute.With the progression of arterial disease,patients may develop polyarthralgia and myalgias,mainly involving muscle stiffness,limb/jaw claudication,cold/swelling extremities,etc.Acute development of rhabdomyolysis in addition to aortic aneurysm is uncommon in LVV.Herein,we report a rare case of LVV with the first presentation of acute rhabdomyolysis.CASE SUMMARY A 70-year-old Asian woman suffering from long-term low back pain was hospitalized due to limb claudication,dark urine and an elevated creatine kinase(CK)level.After treatment with fluid resuscitation and antibiotics,the patient remained febrile.Her workup showed persistent elevated levels of inflammatory markers,and imaging studies revealed an aortic aneurysm.A decreasing CK was evidently combined with elevated inflammatory markers and negativity for antineutrophilic cytoplasmic antibodies.LVV was suspected and confirmed by magnetic resonance angiography and positron emission tomography with 18Ffluorodeoxyglucose/computed tomography.With a favourable response to immunosuppressive treatment,her symptoms resolved,and clinical remission was achieved one month later.However,after failing to follow the tapering schedule,the patient was readministered 25 mg/d prednisolone due to disease relapse.Follow-up examinations showed decreased inflammatory markers and substantial improvement in artery lesions after 6 mo of treatment.At the twelvemonth follow-up,she was clinically stable and maintained on corticosteroid therapy.CONCLUSION An exceptional presentation of LVV with acute rhabdomyolysis is described in this case,which exhibited a good response to immunosuppressive therapy,suggesting consideration for a differential diagnosis when evaluating febrile patients with myalgia and elevated CK.Timely use of high-dose steroids until a diagnosis is established may yield a favourable outcome.

Analysis on Endovascular Therapy for Acute Ischemic Stroke with Large Vessel Occlusion and Large-Scaled Core Infarct Volume in the Time Window

Patients who received endovascular therapy (EVT) for acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion (AIS-LVO) and large-scaled core infarct volume in the time window were analyzed. Literature data were reviewed. Results showed that although EVT is the first choice to AIS-LVO, patients often have poor prognosis. Alberta stroke program early CT score (ASPECTS) based on computerized tomography angiography source image (CTA-SI) can reflect the real cerebral perfusion more truly, and it can assess the size of core infarct more quickly and accurately, thus enabling to judge prognosis.

Application of Frontotemporal Expanded Flap with Bilateral Superficial temporal vessels in Repair of Large Area Scar Contracture in Face and Neck

Objective To summarize the clinical experience of frontotemporal expanded flap with bilateral superficial temporal vessels in repairing large area scar contracture in face and neck.Methods 14 patients with facial and Cervical scar contracture in our hospital were taken as the research object.With bilateral superficial temporal vessels as pedicles,a 400-600 ml skin dilator was inserted into the forehead and 50-100 ml skin dilator was inserted into the two temporal parts respectively.Within 3-4 months,the water injection volume reaches 2 times of the dilator volume.After maintaining for one month,skin flap transplantation was performed.The frontal flap was reserved for hairline reconstruction,and the flap was cut to cover the area after facial and Cervical scar release to reconstruct the jaw-neck angle.The pedicle division and pedicle trimming were performed 3-4 weeks after operation.Results All the 14 patients completed the operation successfully.The flap expansion time is 5-6 months.The expanded skin flap covers an area of 26 cm×9 cm-42 cm×16 cm,and all the skin flaps survived after operation.Among them,2 patients suffered from flap congestion after flap transplantation.Follow-up for 6-12 months showed that the color and texture of the skin flap were similar to those of facial skin,with natural transition and no obvious bloating.The angle between the lower jaw and the neck is about 90.The anterior flexion,posterior extension,lateral flexion and rotation of the neck are obviously improved compared with the anterior,and the posterior extension is close to normal.Conclusion Frontotemporal expanded flap with bilateral superficial temporal vessels is suitable for patients with large-area scar contracture in face and neck that cannot be repaired after expansion of adjacent local normal tissues.

Comprehensive Marine Observing Experiment Based on High-Altitude Large Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(South China Sea Experiment2020 of the “Petrel Project”)

In collaboration with 12 other institutions, the Meteorological Observation Center of the China Meteorological Administration undertook a comprehensive marine observation experiment in the South China Sea using the Yilong-10 high-altitude large unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV). The Yilong-10 UAV carried a self-developed dropsonde system and a millimeter-wave cloud radar system. In addition, a solar-powered unmanned surface vessel and two drifting buoys were used. The experiment was further supported by an intelligent, reciprocating horizontal drifting radiosonde system that was deployed from the Sansha Meteorological Observing Station, with the intent of producing a stereoscopic observation over the South China Sea. Comprehensive three-dimensional observations were collected using the system from 31 July to2 August, 2020. This information was used to investigate the formation and development processes of Typhoon Sinlaku(2020). The data contain measurements of 21 oceanic and meteorological parameters acquired by the five devices, along with video footage from the UAV. The data proved very helpful in determining the actual location and intensity of Typhoon Sinlaku(2020). The experiment demonstrates the feasibility of using a high-altitude, large UAV to fill in the gaps between operational meteorological observations of marine areas and typhoons near China, and marks a milestone for the use of such data for analyzing the structure and impact of a typhoon in the South China Sea. It also demonstrates the potential for establishing operational UAV meteorological observing systems in the future, and the assimilation of such data into numerical weather prediction models.
