Methods: 424 cases with liver transplantation were examined by bedside ultrasound after the operations. The results of IVC complications,including thrombosis and stenosis, were analyzed and summarized. Results: 18 cases with IVC complications were detected by bedside ultrasound, including 6 cases of stenosis and 12 cases of thrombosis. Conclusion: Bedside ultrasound is important for diagnosing and monitoring IVC thrombosis and stenosis after liver transplantation, especially in the earlier period. It could provide valuable imaging for clinical diagnosis and treatment promptly.
Objective To explore the efficiency of artificial intelligence algorithm model using preoperative blood indexes on the prediction of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in patients with lower limb fracture before operation. Methods Patients with lower limb fracture treated in the Department of Orthopedics of Deyang People’s Hospital between January 2018 and December 2022 were retrospectively selected. Their basic and clinical data such as age, gender, height and weight, and laboratory examination indicators at admission were collected, then the neutrophi to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), monocyte to lymphocyte ratio (MLR), and platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) were calculated. According to color Doppler ultrasound indication of DVT in lower extremities at admission, the patients were divided into DVT group and non-DVT group. After data preprocessing, grey relational analysis (GRA) was used to screen the combination model of important predictive features of DVT, and BP neural network prediction model was established using the selected features. Finally, the accuracy of BP neural network prediction model was evaluated, and was compared with those of different models in clinical prediction of DVT. Results A total of 4033 patients with lower limb fracture were enrolled, including 3127 cases in the DVT group and 906 cases in the non-DVT group. GRA selected seven important predictive features: absolute lymphocyte value, NLR, MLR, PLR, plasma D-dimer, direct bilirubin, and total bilirubin. The accuracies of logistic regression analysis, random forest, decision tree, BP neural network and GRA-BP neural network combination model were 74%, 76%, 75%, 84% and 87%, respectively. The GRA-BP neural network combination model had the highest accuracy. Conclusion The GRA-BP neural network selected in this paper has the highest accuracy in preoperative DVT risk prediction in patients with lower limb fracture, which can provide a reference for the formulation of DVT prevention strategies.
Objective To analyze the influence of the body mass index (BMI) and age on deep vein thrombosis (DVT) after the total hip arthroplasty(THA) or total knee arthroplasty(TKA) in Chinese patients who received prophylactic treatment for DVT. Methods We used a randomized clinical case-control study. From April 2004 to August 2004, weperformed THA and TKA for 95 patients (128 hips and knees). There were 27 men and 68 women with an average age of 60 years (range, 23-78) at surgery, and withan average BMI of 25.88 kg/m2 (range, 14.34-40.39) before surgery. All the patients were given low-molecular-weight heparin for 7-10 days pre-and postoperatively to prevent DVT. Color Doppler ultrasonography was used to detect DVT of bilateral lower extremities in all the patients before operation and 7-10 days after operation.The patients were divided into 4 groups according to their BMI:the non-obese group (BMI≤25.00 kg/m2), the overweight group (BMI, 25.01-27.00 kg/m2), the obese group (BMI, 27.01-30.00 kg/m2), and the morbidly obese group (BMIgt;30.00 kg/m2); and they were also divided into 4 groups according to their ages (≤40, 4160, 61.70, gt;70 yr) so as to analyze the influence of the BMI and age on DVT. Results The total incidence ofDVT in all the patients was 47.4% (45/95) and the incidence of proximal DVT was 3.2%. Forty-five patients had DVT and 50 patients had no DVT. The average BMI of the patients with DVT was significantly higher than that of the patients with no DVT (Plt;005). The overweight, obese, and morbidly obese patients had an odds ratio of 7.04, 4.8,and 9.6 for DVT compared with the nonobese patients (P＜0.05); but the obese group had a less risk than the other 2 groups.The 41-60, 61-70, and gt;70-year-old patients had an odds ratio of 24.0, 38.2, and 24.4 for DVT compared with the ≤40year-old patients (P＜0.05). Conclusion Obesity (BMIgt;25 kg/m2) and an increasing age (gt;40 yr) are identified as statistically significant risk factors for DVT after THA or TKA, and patients aged 61-70 years are more likely tohave DVT than the other patients. We should pay more attention to those obesity and aged patients when they are undergoing the total joint replacement, and we should give them enough prophylaxis and closely observe the symptoms in their bilateral lower extremities after operation, taking ultrasonography or venography to check DVT if necessary, so that we can give them prompt treatment and prevent fatal pulmonary thromboembolism.
ObjectiveTo analyze the platelet (PLT) count, coagulation function, and portal vein thrombosis (PVT) in the patients underwent splenectomy due to different etiologies. MethodsThe patients who underwent splenectomy in the Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University from January 2013 to December 2022 were collected. According to the etiology, the patients were assigned into the occupying group (splenic and pancreatic occupying lesions), hypersplenism group (portal hypertension and hypersplenism), and splenic rupture group (traumatic splenic rupture). The changes of PLT, white blood cells (WBC), red blood cells (RBC), neutrophils (Neut), prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), fibrinogen (Fib), D-dimer (DD), and PVT were observed after splenectomy. ResultsA total of 166 patients were collected, including 42 in the occupying group, 22 in the hypersplenism group, and 102 in the splenic rupture group. There were no statistically significant differences in the age and preoperative Child-Pugh score among the patients of the three groups (P>0.05). There were 12 (7.2%) patients with PVT, including 2 in the occupying group, 6 in the hypersplenismn group, and 4 in the splenic rupture group. The PVT incidence among the three groups had a statistical significant difference (Fisher exact test, P=0.003), which in the hypersplenismn group was higher than the occupying group (P=0.016) and the splenic rupture group (P=0.002), while there was no statistically significant difference between the occupying group and the splenic rupture group (P=1.000). The overall trend was that the PLT, RBC, WBC, and various coagulation function indicators such as PT, APTT, and Fib among the three groups all showed an upward trend immediately after splenectomy, but the postoperative peak time and change trends had no markedly regular among the three groups. The PLT of the patients with and without PVT changed over time during the observation period (patients without PVT: F=60.238, P<0.001; patients with PVT group: F=9.700, P=0.043), and which showed a continuous upward trend after surgery, reaching a peak on the 14th day and then beginning to decline in the patients of both 2 groups. However, there was no statistically significant intergroup effect between the 2 groups (F=0.056, P=0.816). ConclusionsThe results of this study suggest that the peak value of PLT in the hypersplenism group is lower as compared with the occupying group and the splenic rupture group, and the PVT is more likely to occur. However, no difference of the PLT level is found in the patients without and with PVT.
Objective To analyze the relation between the mode of delivery and postpartum lower extremity deep venous thrombosis （DVT）， and discuss the therapy methods. Methods The clinical data of 48 patients with postpartum lower extremity DVT from 2006 to 2012 in this hospital were analyzed retrospectively. Results There were 15 897 patients with the delivery， of whom were 10 097 cases of cesarean section and 5 800 cases of spontaneous delivery， the incidence rate of lower extremity DVT in the patients with cesarean section was significantly higher than that in the patients with spontaneous delivery〔0.41% （41/10 097） versus 0.12% （7/5 800）， χ2=9.94，P＜0.005〕. The higher incidence rate of cesarean section， the higher incidence rate of lower extremity DVT， which was a positive correlation between them （rs=0.87，P＜0.05）. Forty-three cases were only treated by drug therapy， 2 cases were performed operation combined with drug therapy， and 5 cases were placed the inferior vena cava filter. Forty-eight cases were cured and discharged. Conclusions The incidence rate of lower extremity DVT of cesarean section is higher as compared with the spontaneous delivery. The thrombolysis and （or） anticoagulation therapy is an effective way in the treatment for DVT. Controlling indications of cesarean section and early postpartum out-of-bed can decrease the DVT.
Objective To summarize the research about the stability of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) of the lower extremity in recent years. Methods The literatures about the stability of DVT of lower limbs at home and abroad in recent years were reviewed. Results There are few studies on the stability of DVT at home and abroad, which limited on the floating thrombus. Conclusion The stability of DVT can be effectively evaluated by SOMATOM Force CT (The third generation dual source CT).
ObjectiveTo investigate the risk factors,characteristics and prognosis in Tibetan patients with venous thromboembolism. MethodsTibetan patients with VTE from plateau area,admitted in West China Hospital from January 2010 to December 2012,were recruited in the study. The VTE diagnosis was confirmed by CT pulmonary angiogram (CTPA) or vascular ultrasound examination. Risk factors,clinical symptoms,signs and laboratory tests were retrospectively investigated and follow-up by telephone interview was conducted. Results31 Tibetan VTE patients with 16 males and 15 females were included. The investigation of risk factors revealed that 15 patients suffered from obese(48.3%),10 patients suffered from highly viscous hyperlipidemia(32.3%). The most common clinical symptom was dyspnea(29%),followed by chest pain(19.4%),hemoptysis(16.1%) and cough(12.9%). The common signs were lower extremity edema(73.3%) and lung rale(36.7%). All the patients received anticoagulation therapy,and inferior vena caval filters were implanted in 2 patients. In two years' follow-up after discharge,2 patients died of tumor,2 died of pulmonary embolism,6 patients suffered from chronic embolization syndrome with lower extremity edema or pain,1 patient suffered from pulmonary hypertension after embolization,and thrombus in 20 patients disappeared or recanalized. ConclusionTibetans long-termly reside in high altitude areas with the eating habits of high-fat diet,which may increase the incidence of acquired risk factors such as viscous hyperlipidemia and obesity. There are no specific clinical symptoms and signs among Tibetan VTE patients,with dyspnea as the most common symptom and lower extremity edema as the most common sign. Patients with risk factors which can be eliminated in a short term have better prognosis.
Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of intermittent pneumatic compression in prevention of deep venous thrombosis after major orthopedic operation. Methods We searched MEDLINE (1966 to January 2008), The Cochrane Library (Issue 2, 2008), CBM (1996 to January 2008), CNKI (1998 to January 2008), VIP (1998 to January 2008), and retrieved clinical controlled trials (CCTs) or randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in which IPC was used as an intervention to prevent DVT, and all the trials were published in English or Chinese. The methodological quality of the included studies was assessed according to the standard of Cochrane systematic review. RevMan 4.2 software was used for meta-analysis. Results Seven RCTs and 1 CCT were included. Their methodological quality was poor. The results of Meta–analyses showed: (1) The incidence of DVT in the IPC group was lower than that in the control group (RR=0.20, 95%CI 0.11 to 0.35, Plt;0.000 01); (2) There was no difference in the incidence of DVT between the IPC group and the LMWH group (RR=0.70, 95%CI 0.28 to 1.74, P=0.44); (3) The incidence of DVT in the IPC plus LMWH group was lower than that in the LMWH-alone group (RR=0.23, 95%CI 0.10 to 0.52, P=0.000 4). Furthermore, the incidence of DVT in the IPC plus LMWH group was lower than that in the GCS plus LMWH group (Plt;0.000 1). No severe adverse reaction of IPC in DVT prevention was reported. Conclusion IPC shows an effective tendency in DVT prevention, but because of the low quality and the small sample of the included studies, this conclusion needs to be verified by protocols of more samples and high quality.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the treatment effective of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) of low extremities. MethodsThe clinical data of 86 patients with DVT were analyzed retrospectively, which were divided into thromboectomy group (12 patients) and thrombolysis group (74 patients) according to the therapy methods. The thromboectomy group patients were treated by thromboectomy using Fogarty balloon catheter plus thrombolytie, thrombolysis group patients were treated by thrombolysis (urokinase or antithrombus enzyme of viper). ResultsThere were 8 cases healed, 4 cases relieved, 0 invalidated in the thromboectomy group and 15 cases healed, 50 cases relieved, 9 cases invalidated in the thrombolysis group at discharge. During 3-100 months of following up with an average 27 months, 10 cases and 62 cases were examined by Bultrasonic in the thromboectomy group and thrombolysis group, respectively, 6 cases were not damaged in the function of valves of the thromboectomy group, 9 cases were not damaged in the function of valves of the thrombolysis group. The rates of acute response, longtime patency, and normal valve in the thromboectomy group were higher than those in the thrombolysis group (Plt;0.05), the rate of post-thrombotic syndrome in the thromboectomy group was lower than that in the thrombolysis group (Plt;0.05). ConclusionsEarly thromboectomy is an effective way of restoring the fluency of deep vein and protecting the efficiency of the vein value organization, and reducing the sequela of DVT. Thrombolysis can only relieve the symptomation, but it can not protect the crawling and relapsing of thrombus.
ObjectiveTo understand the initiation, maturing, and resolution of thrombus by comparing the length and weight of thrombus at different time in the rat inferior vena cava (IVC) stenosis model. MethodsForty-eight female Sprague Dawley rats, weighing 180-230 g, were selected to prepare the IVC stenosis model by blocking the most of the IVC blood flow. The length and weight of IVC thrombus were measured at different time points, the histological features were observed via HE staining. ResultsBlood clots formed after 2 hours of modeling, the thrombus length and weight showed no significant difference between at 2 hours and 4 hours after modeling (P>0.05). The thrombus length and weight increased significantly at 6 hours, showing significant differences between at 2 and 4 hours and at 6, 8, 12, 24, and 48 hours (P<0.05); and from 6 to 48 hours, there was no significant difference in the thrombus length and weight (P>0.05), indicating that thrombus was stable, or maturing. Blood clots began to become smaller after 3 days when compared with ones at 48 hours (P<0.05), indicating the start of resolution at 3 days. At 7 days, the thrombus length and weight became further smaller when compared with ones at 3 days (P<0.05). The thrombus completely subsided at 21 days, the IVC recanalized. HE staining showed that thrombus formed after 2 hours of modeling; from 6 to 48 hours, the lumen became hyperemia, and the inflammatory cells, especially neutrophils, could be found. The organization of thrombus could be observed at 3 days and 7 days; thrombus gradually vanished at 21 days. ConclusionThe time of thrombus initiation, maturing stage, and resolution stage is 6 hours, 6 to 48 hours, and 3 to 21 days after modeling, respectively.
