Clinical efficacy of antibiotic-loaded bone cement and negative pressure wound therapy in multidrug-resistant organisms diabetic foot ulcers: a retrospective analysis.
Front Cell Infect Microbiol
January 2025
Department of Orthopedics, Fuyang City People's Hospital, Fuyang, China.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical efficacy of antibiotic-loaded bone cement (ALBC) combined with Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) aspiration technique in the treatment of multidrug-resistant diabetic foot ulcers (MDRO-DFUs).
Methods: A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 80 patients with MDROs-DFU who were used Vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) as NPWT excipient and met the inclusion criteria from January 2019 to January 2024 at our hospital. Patients were divided into an experimental group and a control group, with 40 cases in each.
Ascending aorta dilatation for pulmonary atresia with ventricular septal defect: a report of three adult cases.
J Cardiothorac Surg
January 2025
The First Hospital of Tsinghua University, Tsinghua University, Beijing, China.
Background: Patients with pulmonary atresia and ventricular septal defect (PA/VSD) are prone to progressive aortic dilation. However, there are relatively few reports of progressive development of aortic aneurysm or aortic dissection in adult patients who missed early corrective surgery.
Presentation Of Cases: Case 1: A 38-year-old man with PA/VSD and a bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), underwent VSD repair, aortic valve replacement, and PA correction at age 21.
Identification and treatment of -induced diabetic foot ulcer: a case report and microbiome analysis.
Front Med (Lausanne)
December 2024
Department of Clinical Laboratory, Sir Run Run Hospital, Nanjing Medical University, Nanjing, China.
Article Synopsis
- Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) can lead to severe complications like amputation if not treated promptly, often due to delays in care.
- A 56-year-old patient experienced a DFU linked to a bacterial infection from poultry exposure, requiring multiple debridement surgeries and targeted antibiotic treatment.
- Effective management of DFUs involves adjusting antibiotic therapies based on identified pathogens to reduce mortality and prevent irreversible amputations.
Three-dimensional printing-guided percutaneous transcatheter replacement in coarctation of the aorta: a retrospective study.
Front Cardiovasc Med
December 2024
Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Xijing Hospital, Air Force Medical University, Xi'an, Shaanxi, China.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the feasibility and effectiveness of using 3D printed models for treating congenital coarctation of the aorta (CoA) in adolescents and adults, involving 10 patients who underwent the procedure.
- Results showed significant improvements post-treatment: the narrowest diameter of CoA increased from an average of 4.35 mm to 16.84 mm, and transconstrictive systolic pressure difference dropped from 81.29 mmHg to 15.52 mmHg.
- The procedure was generally successful, but there were some complications during hospitalization and follow-up, particularly in patients with additional heart defects.
Ventricular septal defect characteristics influence presence of septal anatomical isthmuses in patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot.
Europace
December 2024
Department of Cardiology, Heart Lung Centre, Leiden University Medical Centre, P.O. Box 9600, 2300 RC Leiden, The Netherlands.
Aims: In repaired tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF), the septal anatomical isthmuses (AI), AI 3, between the ventricular septal defect (VSD) and pulmonary annulus, and AI 4, between the VSD and tricuspid annulus, are important ventricular tachycardia (VT) substrates when slow conducting. Our aim was to assess the influence of VSD characteristics, specifically the presence of muscular or fibrous tissue at its border, on the presence or absence of septal AIs, potentially related to VT.
Methods And Results: All consecutive rTOF patients who underwent electroanatomical mapping between January 2005 and March 2023 with an available surgical report providing VSD details (n = 91) were included.
