We ex- amined this technique＇ s usefulness in retrograde CTO-PCI cases. Methods We retrospective analyzed 728 con-secutive CTO-PCI cases from January 2014 to September 2016. One hundred and forty-two patients who had un- dergone retrograde PCIs using septal collateral channels （CCs） were collected. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to identify independent predictors for SST CCs crossing success. Results The CCs crossing success rate was 89.4% during retrograde PCI. Three factors were figured out as independent predictors, includ- ing CCs tortuosity （OR 0.164, 95%CI： 0.041-0.657; P=0.011）, diameter of distal CTO lesion （2.035, 95%CI： 1.011-4.099; P=0.047） and LAD-CTO （OR 0.244, 95%CI：0.067-0.894; P=0.033）. There were complications of CCs injury in 23.2% cases and 2.1% cases had cardiac tamponade without any in-hospital death. Conclusion SST is an effective method in collateral crossing during retrograde CTO-PCI. It has high successful rate regard-less of the Werner Collateral Class of interventional collaterals, especially in invisible collaterals. This technolo- gy is feasible in daily practice of retrograde PCI.展开更多

METHODS Twenty-five windsurfers(21 male; aged 31 ± 8 years) and 32 kitesurfers(23 male; aged 29 ± 11 years) presented at our hospital during the 2-year study period. Various injury data were recorded,including transport to hospital and treatment. After a median follow-up of 16 mo(range,7-33 mo),18 windsurfers(72%) and 26 kitesurfers(81%) completed questionnaires on the trauma mechanisms,the use of protective gear,time spent on windsurfing or kitesurfing,time to return to sports,additional injuries,and chronic disability. RESULTS Most patients sustained minor injuries but severe injuries also occurred,including vertebral and tibial plateau fractures. The lower extremities were affected the most,followed by the head and cervical spine,the upperextremities,and the trunk. The injury rates were 5.2 per 1000 h of windsurfing and 7.0 per 1000 h of kitesurfing(P = 0.005). The injury severity was the same between groups(P = 1.0). Less than 30% of the study population used protective gear. Kitesurfers had a higher number of injuries,and required transport by ambulance,inpatient hospital stay and operative treatment more often than windsurfers,but these differences were not statistically significant(P > 0.05). The median time to return to windsurfing and kitesurfing was 5 and 4 wk,respectively(P = 0.79). Approximately one-third of the patients in each group experienced chronic symptoms.CONCLUSION Kitesurfing results in a significantly higher injury rate than windsurfing in the same environmental conditions but the severity of the injuries does not differ.展开更多

In order to add transaction features for some NoSQL database systems, many scholars have tried different techniques. Unfortunately, there is a lack of research on Redis’s transaction in the existing literatures. This paper proposes a transaction model for key-value NoSQL databases including Redis to make possible allowing users to access data in the ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation and Durability) way, and this model is vividly called the surfing concurrence transaction model. The architecture, important features and implementation principle are described in detail. The key algorithms also were given in the form of pseudo program code, and the performance also was evaluated. With the proposed model, the transactions of Key-Value NoSQL databases can be performed in a lock free and MVCC (Multi-Version Concurrency Control) free manner. This is the result of further research on the related topic, which fills the gap ignored by relevant scholars in this field to make a little contribution to the further development of NoSQL technology.展开更多
