Objective To explore the expressions of Survivin and VEGF and relationship between them in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods The expressions of Survivin protein and VEGF protein in 50 HCC.30 cirrhosis and 10 normal tissues were assessed by immunohistochemical method.The expressions of Survivin mRNA and VEGF mRNA in 50 HCC,30 cirrhosis and 10 normal tissues were assessed by in situ hybridization.Results The expressions of Survivin and VEGF in cancer tissues,cirrhosis tissues,normal tissues weresignificantly different. The expression of Survivin in HCC tissues was stronger than that in cirrhosis,but the expreesion of VEGF in cirrho- sis was stronger than that in HCC tissues.Conclusion The expression of survivin.is closely associated with the ex- pression of VEGF in HCC and they take positive correlation.The abnormal expressions of Survivin and VEGF are closely associated with the development of HCC.They may play important roles in the development of HCC.

Objective:To evaluate the long-term risk of rebleeding in patients with acute esophageal and gastric variceal bleeding and portal vein thrombosis after endoscopic treatment in liver cirrhosis.Methods:From January to December 2022, 57 patients with acute esophageal and gastric variceal bleeding who were treated by endoscopy in the emergency department of the Zhongshan Hospital affiliated to the Fudan University were included in the study. According to the results of portal vein CT angiography (CTA), the patients were divided into thrombosis group and non thrombosis group. We compared the basic information and endoscopic treatment status of two groups of patients. All patients were followed up until 1 year after endoscopic treatment or April 15, 2023, and re bleeding and survival were recorded during the follow-up period. The influencing factors of rebleeding after 1 year of treatment were analyzed.Results:The patient′s age was (55.9±11.4)years old, mainly male [78.95%(45/57)]. The average time from initial bleeding to endoscopic treatment for all patients was (6.6±2.8)days. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of age, sex, combined liver malignancy, Child-pugh score, first bleeding form, ascites, and first laboratory examination results (including hemoglobin, platelet, Prothrombin time, creatinine) (all P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the history of endoscopic treatment, bleeding distance from endoscopic treatment, the proportion of patients with esophageal varices and gastric varices, the proportion of patients with esophageal varices treated with ligation, and the proportion of patients with gastric varices treated with tissue glue between the two groups (all P>0.05). A total of 2 patients died after surgery, and 12 patients experienced rebleeding, including 10 in the thrombotic group and 2 in the non thrombotic group. Kaplan Meier analysis showed that the 1-year rebleeding rate in the thrombotic group was significantly higher than that in the non thrombotic group (59.02% vs 24.71%, RR=6.002, 95% CI: 1.06-34.00, P=0.020 8). Cox multivariate regression analysis suggests that the presence of portal vein thrombosis ( HR=7.669, 95% CI: 1.453-40.472, P=0.016) was an independent risk factor for recurrent bleeding after endoscopic treatment of acute esophageal and gastric variceal bleeding for one year. Conclusions:Portal vein thrombosis in liver cirrhosis increases the risk of recurrent bleeding after endoscopic treatment for acute esophageal and gastric variceal bleeding for one year. For patients with acute Upper gastrointestinal bleeding complicated with portal vein thrombosis, regular endoscopic and ultrasonic follow-up, individualized endoscopic sequential and selective anticoagulation therapy should be carried out.
