Aims/introduction: Simple renal cysts (SRC) are associated with age, hypertension and hyperuricemia, which are risk factors of renal impairment. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of SRC and its association with measured glomerular filtration rate (mGFR) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in China.

Methods: A total of 3,552 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus admitted to Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital from January 2012 to December 2016 were investigated. All participants were diagnosed as SRC by color Doppler, and all participants were measured for GFR by using dynamic renal scintigraphy with technetium-99m-diethylene triamine peta-acetic acid.

Results: The prevalence of SRC was 17.4% (619 cases). Participants with SRC had significantly lower mGFR values than those without SRC (86.16 ± 26.20 vs 94.88 ± 23.98 mL/min/1.73 m , P < 0.001). In 478 participants with unilateral renal cyst, the mGFR of the kidney affected by SRC was significantly lower than that of the unaffected kidney (43.32 ± 13.74 vs 44.18 ± 13.34 mL/min/1.73 m , P = 0.014). The participants were divided into four groups according to the quartiles of mGFR level (≥109.50, 93.80-109.49, 76.90-93.79 and <76.90 mL/min/1.73 m ). The prevalence of SRC gradually increased with decreasing mGFR level (12.9, 13.9, 16.6 and 27.8%, respectively; P trend <0.01). After adjusting for age, sex, duration of diabetes, hypertension and other potential confounders, the logistic regression showed that SRC was an independent risk factor for impaired GFR (<60 mL/min/1.73 m ; odds ratio 1.656; 95% confidence interval 1.451-1.890, P < 0.001).

Conclusion: SRC is an independent risk factor for the decrease of mGFR in Chinese diabetes patients, and could affect the renal GFR measured by dynamic renal scintigraphy on the SRC side.

A 28-year-old man was diagnosed with chlamydial urethritis by his previous doctor and was prescribed minocycline (MINO). The result of a urinary chlamydia polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test later confirmed to be negative. However, the patient visited our hospital because of persistent miction pain.

Vacuum-assisted delivery (VAD) uses a vacuum cup on the fetal scalp to apply traction during uterine contractions, assisting complicated vaginal deliveries. Despite its widespread use, VAD presents a higher risk of neonatal morbidity compared to natural vaginal delivery and biomechanical evidence for safe VAD traction forces is still limited. The aim of this study is to develop and assess the feasibility of an experimental VAD testing setup, and investigate the impact of traction forces on fetal brain deformation.

Risk factors for postoperative recurrence after full-endoscopic microvascular decompression for trigeminal neuralgia: a retrospective study and predictive nomogram.

Eur J Med Res

December 2024

Department of Neurosurgery, Neuromedicine Center, Beijing Shijitan Hospital, Capital Medical University, No. 10, Tieyi Road, Yangfangdian, Haidian District, Beijing, 100038, People's Republic of China.

Background: Full-endoscopic microvascular decompression (fE-MVD) is an emerging treatment option for trigeminal neuralgia (TN). However, the risk factors associated with postoperative recurrence of TN after fE-MVD procedure remain controversial. The aim of the present study was to summarize the surgical technique of fE-MVD for the treatment of TN and to develop a predictive model for recurrence at 1 year postoperatively based on independent risk factors.

Objective: Splenectomy is regularly performed in total and distal pancreatectomy due to technical reasons, lymph node dissection and radicality of the operation. However, the spleen serves as an important organ for competent immune function, and its removal is associated with an increased incidence of cancer and a worse outcome in some cancer entities (Haematologica 99:392-398, 2014; Dis Colon Rectum 51:213-217, 2008; Dis Esophagus 21:334-339, 2008). The impact of splenectomy in pancreatic cancer is not fully resolved (J Am Coll Surg 188:516-521, 1999; J Surg Oncol 119:784-793, 2019).

Objective: To determine which parameters, including femur morphology, proximal femur bone mineral density, or patient characteristics, are associated with bisphosphonate-related atypical femur fractures (AFFs) and to investigate the relationships between AFF location and these parameters.

Materials And Methods: Sixteen females with a history of bisphosphonate use who presented with AFFs and 38 females without AFFs, even those with long-term bisphosphonate use of > 5 years, were compared. Patient characteristics; physique, gait ability, and history of pain and medication, were recorded.
