Objective To investigate interventions of vitamin E( VE) on indomethacin-induced gastric mucosal injury. Methods Fifty mice were randomly divided into 5 groups. Normal control group was administrated with saline, others were intragastrically administrated with indomethacin ( 20 mg · kg-1 ) . After 4 hours, mice were intragastrically treated with saline, cimetidine(200 mg·kg-1),VE(25,50 mg·kg-1) once a day for 5 consecutive days. By the end of the treatment,gastric mucosa injury index,serum superoxide dismutase(SOD) activity,and malondialdehyde(MDA) content were determined. ResultsGastric mucosal injury indexs of mice treated with cimetidine,VE at low and high doses were significantly lower than that of the model control and higher than that of the normal control(P<0. 01). VE at high doses showed significantly less mucosal injury than that of the cimetidine group(P<0. 05). Healing-rate of gastric mucosal injury in cimetidine group,VE low-dose and high-dose groups were significantly higher than that of model control group(P<0. 01). SOD activity of VE at low and high doses was significantly lower than that of the model control and cimetidine groups(P<0. 05). The results also revealed that cimetidine and two doses of VE significantly elevated SOD activity and lowered the level of MDA(P<0. 05, 0. 01). Conclusion VE can obviously promote the healing of gastric mucosal injury,especially at high dose,which is better than cimetidine,while,the low dose is comparable with cimetidine.

The high-pass filter which is designed to overcome the polarization voltage in the ECG measurements can affect the measurement of the ST-segment; but the accuracy of the ST-segment will have an impact on the diagnosis and treatment of heart diseases. This paper used the ECG detection platform to test the effect of the high-pass filter at different frequency and studied the effect of the high-pass filter on the ST segment to ensure proper use of different application modes.

OBJECTIVESTo compare the prognostic value of three lymph node(N) staging systems, including the number of metastatic lymph nodes(pN), the metastatic lymph node ratio (Nr) and the log odds of positive lymph nodes (LODDS), in gastric cancer patients after radical resection.
METHODSClinical and pathological data of 1 796 patients who underwent gastric cancer radical resection with complete follow-up information from January 2000 to December 2010 at Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center were retrospectively analyzed. For each patient, N stages were classified according to three lymph node staging systems (pN, Nr, and LODDS). The relationship between each N staging was examined. Survival was analyzed using the Cox's proportional hazard model, and discrimination of staging system was determined using the change value of Chi squared statistic (▹χ) from the log-likelihood test. A larger ▹χvalue indicates a better discriminatory ability. The homogeneity of 5-year overall survival across each pN stage within each Nr and LODDS stage was compared by using the log-rank test. The subgroup analysis was performed to evaluate whether each of the competing system was affected by the number of lymph nodes retrieved.
RESULTSThe mean number of lymph node examined and positive nodes in the entire cohort was 21.1±12.1 and 7.9±8.2,respectively. The median overall survival of all the patients was 45 months (95% CI: 42.6 to 47.4 months), and the 5-year survival rate was 55.0%(95% CI: 52.6% to 57.4%). The ▹χof Nr system was 198.546, which was higher than that of pN(191.255) and LODDS(196.557) system. Except for the pN3b stage, significant heterogeneity was found among patients of different Nr subcategories in 5-year overall survival rate (all P<0.05) within each pN stage. While there was no significant difference in overall survival when any of the Nr stages was stratified by pN stages(all P>0.05). Significant difference in survival among patients of different LODDS subcategories was also seen within each pN stage. But for the LODDS system, the survival rate was similar among patients of different pN subcategories (all P>0.05) apart from the LODDS3 stage. The hazard ratios of patients with insufficient lymph nodes examined (≤15) were higher than those with sufficient nodes examined (>15) when the pN classification was used (all P<0.05), whereas similar results were not found if the Nr or LODDS classification was applied.
CONCLUSIONCompared with the pN staging system, both the Nr and LODDS staging system, especially the former, have a higher degree of discrimination ability and robustness to predict the prognosis in patients with gastric cancer after radical resection.

Objective:
To explore the effect of a phased rehabilitation training programme to relieve shoulder dysfunction in patients after neck dissection and to provide effective solutions for postoperative shoulder joint function recovery of patients
Methods:
This study has been reviewed and approved by the Ethics Committee, and informed consent has been obtained from patients. A phased rehabilitaiton training programme for the shoulder after neck dessection was developed through literature review and discussion, and 70 eligible patients from Hospital of Stomatology, Sun Yat-sen University from December 2020 to April 2021 were selected and randomly divided into the test group and control group (35 patients in each group). The control group underwent motor rehabilitation training from 6 weeks postoperative to 1 year after surgery, such as shoulder mobility and coordination training and small range of motion training of the neck, while the test group took part in a rehabilitation training program that included familiarization maneuver training, protective rehabilitation, exercise rehabilitation, and resistance training in the following four stages: preoperative, postoperative general anesthesia and awake until the removal of stitches, the removal of stitches until 6 weeks after surgery, and 6 weeks after surgery until 1 year after surgery. The frequency of training in both groups was at least 3 days per week, and the length of each training session was 10-15 min. The intensity of exercise was 2-3 points on the Borg Conscious Exercise Intensity Scale (i.e., mild-to-moderate tachypnea or fatigue). The neck dissection injury index (NDII) was used to evaluate the quality of life related to shoulder joint function at four time points: preoperative, postoperative 3 months, postoperative 6 months, and postoperative 12 months. The higher the score, the better the quality of life.
Results:
28 cases in the test group and 32 cases in the control group completed a one-year follow-up. At 3 and 6 months postoperative, the NDII of the test group was significantly higher than that of the control group [3 months postoperative: test group (93.48 ± 9.36) vs. control group (80.00 ± 11.34) (P<0.001), 6 months postoperative: test group (98.21 ± 4.76) vs. control group (90.70 ± 9.12) (P<0.001)]; 12 months after surgery, the NDII of the test group (97.23 ± 4.88) was still higher than that of the control group (96.33 ± 4.49), but the difference was not statistically significant (P = 0.458). The difference in NDII scores among subjects at 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery was statistically significant in each group (P<0.001).
Conclusion
The application of the phased rehabilitation training method in neck dissection patients has a feasibility and could improve the quality of life of patients' shoulder joint function within 6 months after surgery.
