ABSTRACT
@#The European Society for Vascular Surgery (ESVS) 2022 clinical practice guidelines showed us venous thrombosis management in January 2022. In terms of iliac vein diseases, it retained some guiding views, upgraded some guiding views, and added some new views compared with the version 2015. It has good guidance and reference significance for medical staff and patients. The part of the guidelines about iliac vein disease is worth our interpretation.
ABSTRACT
@#In addition to the typical respiratory symptoms, COVID-19 patients present with clinical manifestations of cardiovascular system damage, and they are at higher risk of intensive care or mortality. The mechanism of COVID-19's impact on the cardiovascular system is still unclear, therefore we need to pay close attention to it. Based on the existing research, this paper focused on the concurrent characteristics of the cardiovascular system diseases, summarized the possible mechanisms of cardiovascular system damage, including the coronavirus invaders directly into cardiomyocytes and its conduction system, with complications or accompanying conditions such as cytokine storm, imbalance of oxygen supply and demand, drug influence, stress and other damage to cardiovascular system. Meanwhile, current clinical manifestations and treatment methods of COVID-19 were summarized.
ABSTRACT
@#Venous thromboembolism (VTE), comprising both deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, is a chronic illness that contributes significantly to the global burden of disease. The American College of Chest Physicians (ACCP) published the 9th edition of antithrombotic treatment guidelines for VTE (AT9) in 2012, which was first updated in 2016. In October 2021, ACCP published the 2nd update to AT9, which addressed 17 clinical questions related to VTE and presented 29 guidance statements in total. In this paper we interpreted the recommendations proposed in this update of the guidelines.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To investigate the job satisfaction, emotional state and related factors of medical staff participating in online consultation of West China Internet Hospital during the COVID-19 epidemic. Methods Through literature review and expert consultation (Delphi method), the questionnaire was developed, and the online consulting medical staff of West China Hospital of Sichuan University were invited to conduct the questionnaire survey from 26 January to 19 June 2020, and finally the statistical analysis was summarized. Results A total of 132 valid questionnaires were retrieved. Of the 132 subjects, 127 people (96.2%) expressed satisfaction or special satisfaction with the online consulting office format; 103 respondents (78.0%) said that online consulting did not affect or completely did not affect the work and life; 81 people (61.4%) consulted online more than 5 days a week, and 108 people (81.8%) worked within 2 hours a day; the vast majority (97.7%) of the research subjects were satisfied with the content of the training materials and the related support work of the coordination group. Only 29 (22.0%) of the study participants believed that the epidemic caused negative emotions, mainly due to the severity of the epidemic. Conclusion The online consulting medical staff are satisfied with the office form, training materials and coordination work group of the COVID-19 epidemic, and think that it does not affect their work and life. 22.0% of medical staff have negative emotions, and the severity of the epidemic is the main reason.
ABSTRACT
The SARS-CoV-2 has been spread to 26 countries around the world since its outbreak. By February 16, 2020, more than 68 000 people had been diagnosed with COVID-19. Researchers from all over the world have carried out timely studies on this public health emergency and produced a number of scientific publications. This review aims to re-analyze and summarize the current research findings in a timely manner to guide scholars in relevant fields to further SARS-CoV-2 research and assist healthcare professionals in their work and decision-making. The SARS-CoV-2 related terms were selected in both English and Chinese and were searched in several major databases, including Pubmed, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang, and VIP databases. The reference list of each search result was screened for relevance, which was further supplemented to the search results. The included studies were categorized by topics with key characteristics extracted, re-analyzed, and summarized. A total of 301 articles were finally included with 136 in Chinese and 165 in English. The number of publications has rapidly increased since mid-January, 2020, and a peak day was 6th February on which 50 articles were published. The top three countries publishing articles were China, the United States and the United Kingdom. The and its specialty journals have published the most articles, with contribution also from journals such as ( ), ( ), and . All articles were categorized into epidemiology, clinical diagnosis and treatment, basic research, pregnant women and children, mental health, epidemic prevention & control, and others. The literatures related to SARS-CoV-2 are emerging rapidly. It is necessary to sort out and summarize the research topic in time, which has a good reference value for staff in different positions. At the same time, it is necessary to strengthen the judgment of the quality of literatures.

Objective To evaluate 3D printing abdominal aortic aneurysm model in analysis of clinical teaching effect for standardized resident doctors in vascular surgery department. Methods 48 resi-dents in vascular surgery department in our hospital from December 2016 to September 2017 were seleeected and randomly divided into control group and the experimental group. The traditional vascular surgical anatomy atlas, ultrasound, CT abdominal blood vessel 3D reconstruction, digital subtraction, video and so on were used by 24 residents in the control group, while in the experimental group, on the basis of the traditional teaching, abdominal aortic aneurysm model of 3D printing, true aortic coated stent delivery system were increased. After the teaching, the theory of evaluation (abdominal vascular anatomical features, morphological characteristics and classification of AAA, measurement of various parameters and key points of operation in the EVAR) and satisfaction questionnaire were adopted to evaluate the effect of two kinds of teaching methods. SPSS 19.0 was used to conduct t test on two groups of physician evaluation data. Results The results of theoretical assessment showed that there was no significant difference between the control group and the experimental group in the abdominal vascular anatomical features, the morphological features and the classification of the experimental group (P>0.05) in the examination of the common AAA cases and the complicated AAA cases. However, the experimental group was higher than the control group in the mea-surement of the parameters of EVAR, and the score of the operation points and the total score, and the difference was statistically significant (t=2.283, t=2.263, P<0.05). The results of the questionnaire showed that the students' satisfaction scores on the teaching satisfaction of the normal and complex AAA cases were better than those of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion The 3D printing model can increase the understanding and mastery of the anatomy and treat-ment of abdominal aortic aneurysm and improve its learning enthusiasm for vascular surgery. We should make full use of the advantages of 3D printing technology on the basis of retaining the advantages of tradi-tional teaching methods and means, and further enhance the teaching effect.
ABSTRACT
A decade has passed since the terrorist attack of the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. Tragedies such as that caused either by human or the Mother Nature result in damages not only to our physical health, but also our mental health. Although mental problems is generally not as tangible as physical ones, they do put a threat to our society especially in forms of long-term disorders such as post-traumatic stress symptoms [PTSD], depression and generalized anxiety disorder [GAD] and should not be ignored
