[Association of chronic hydrocephalus after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage with transforming growth factor-β1 levels and other risk factors].
To study the role of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) levels and other risk factors in the occurrence of chronic hydrocephalus after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). ⋯ In adult patients with aSAH, the risk factors for chronic hydrocephalus include ventricular expansion, aneurysm position, Fisher classification, ventricular hemorrhage score and postoperative intracranial infections. These risk factors can have greater clinical value than TGF-β1 levels in the CSF in predicting the occurrence of chronic hydrocephalus following aSAH.

[Clinical value of inferior vena caval filter insertion under color Doppler flow imaging guidance through the right internal jugular vein].
To explore the efficacy and feasibility of color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI)-guided inferior vena caval filter (IVCF) insertion through the right internal jugular vein for prevention of pulmonary embolism in patients with deep venous thrombosis (DVT). ⋯ CDFI-guided IVCF insertion via the jugular vein is safe and feasible. Compared with X-ray guidance, CDFI guidance is convenient and substantially reduces the procedural cost and avoids the risk of radiation exposure.
