Backgrounds: Survival and aortic-related adverse events after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for aortic intramural hematoma (IMH) and aortic dissection (AD) are controversial. We aimed to assess the preoperative characteristics and to evaluate TEVAR outcomes of acute type B IMH and AD.

Methods: Between June 2002 and May 2021, 83 patients with acute type B IMH and 755 patients with acute type B AD underwent TEVAR at the General Hospital of Northern Theater Command. We retrospectively analyzed data from these patients, including clinical characteristics and follow-up outcomes.

Results: The patients with IMH were significantly older than the ones with AD (P < 0.001). Diabetes mellitus (P = 0.035) and ischemic cerebrovascular disease (P = 0.017) were more common in the IMH group than in the AD group. The results demonstrated a less long-term aortic-related death-free survival rate in the IMH group than the AD group for all the patients (P = 0.014) and the matched patients (P = 0.027). It also presents a lower long-term overall survival rate (P = 0.047) and aortic-related event-free rate (P = 0.048) in the IMH group than in the matched patients.

Conclusions: Compared with AD patients, patients with IMH who underwent TEVAR had a worse long-term outcome of aortic-related survival in all and matched patients.

Background And Aims: Pancreatic fluid collections (PFCs), including walled-off necrosis (WON), are significant complications of acute pancreatitis, and their management often involves drainage, although the optimal type of stent for this purpose remains uncertain. This meta-analysis aimed to compare metal versus plastic stents for endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided drainage of PFCs.

Methods: We searched PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing metal with plastic stents for drainage of PFCs.

Malperfusion in Patients with Acute Type A Aortic Dissection: A Nationwide Analysis.

Ann Thorac Surg

January 2025

Division of Cardiovascular Surgery, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA; Leonard Davis Institute, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA; Penn Cardiovascular Outcomes, Quality, & Evaluative Research Center, Philadelphia, PA.

Background: This study describes in detail the clinical burden of malperfusion associated with acute Type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) in a large, national cohort and the effect of treatment strategy on outcomes.

Methods: All patients undergoing repair of ATAAD between 2017 and 2020 in the Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) Adult Cardiac Surgery Database were studied. Malperfusion was defined using STS definitions based on imaging or surgeon's evaluation.

Purpose: Patients with adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer are recognized as a vulnerable subpopulation in high-income countries (HICs). Although survival gaps between HIC and low- and middle-income country (LMIC) children with cancer are well described, LMIC AYAs have been neglected. We conducted a systematic review to describe cancer outcomes among LMIC AYAs.

Intra-Mesopore Immunoassay Based on Core-Shell Structured Magnetic Hierarchically Porous ZIFs.

ACS Sens

January 2025

Key Laboratory for Ultrafine Materials of Ministry of Education, School of Materials Science and Engineering, East China University of Science and Technology, Shanghai 200237, China.

It is crucial yet challenging to sensitively quantify low-abundance biomarkers in blood for early screening and diagnosis of various diseases. Herein, an analytical model of intra-mesopore immunoassay (IMIA) was proposed, which was competent to examine various biomarkers at the femtomolar level. The success is rooted in the design of an innovative superparamagnetic core-shell structure with FeO nanoparticles (NPs) at the core and hierarchically porous zeolitic imidazolate frameworks as a shell (FeO@HPZIF-8), achieved through a soft-template directed self-assembly coupled with confinement growth mechanism.
