Objective To evaluate the model of end-stage liver disease (MELD) and Child-Tur-cotte-Pugh (CTP) in prognosis for cirrhotic patients with massive hemorrhage from esophageal varieosis, who underwent emergency endoscopic sclerotherapy (EIS). Methods The clinical and follow-up data of a co-hort of 65 liver cirrhotic patients with massive hemorrhage from esophageal varicosis treated by EIS were ana-lyzed retrospectively. Correlation between MELD values and CTP score and classification was analyzed. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to compare MELD with CTP score and classification in predicting mortality risk. The optimal threshold of MELD to determine the prognostic death risk was calculated by ROC curves. Results MELD, CTP score and classification correlated signifi-cantly with each other. Seven patients died within six months and 9 died within the first year of follow-up.There was no significant difference in gender, age and serum bilirubin between the survival and death groups, while the serum creatinine, international normalized ratio (INR), CTP score, and MELD score were significantly different. The areas under the ROC curve of MELD were both greater than 0.8 to predict 6-month and 1 -year survival, and also were greater than those of CTP score and classification. Areas under the ROC curve of MELD is superior to, but not significantly different though, CTP score or classification. The optimal threshold values of MELD and CTP score both showed satisfactory predicting accuracy of mortality risk. Conclusion MELD is an accurate predictive system for 6 months and 1 year in liver cirrhotic patients with massive hemorrhage from esophageal varicosis treated by EIS. The MELD value is very important in the selection of patients for E1S. But it is not more efficient than CTP score and classification.

Objective To establish a novel experimental neural invasion model with human pancreatic cancer cell line MIA PaCa-Ⅱand explore the biological characters. Methods The tumor mass which was formed by injecting human pancreatic cancer cell line MIA PaCa-Ⅱsubcutaneously was orthotopically transplanted into pancreas of nude mice. Morphological and biological features, metastasis and nerve invasion of the transplanted tumor were studied after 4, 6 and 8 weeks. Expression and distribution of K-ras, C-erbB2, COX-2, PSCA, p53 and DPC4 were detected in MIA PaCa-Ⅱ cell, with SABC immunohistochemistry. Results The successful rate of pancreatic cancer orthotopic implantation was all 100 % after 4, 6, and 8 weeks. The rate of nerve invasion was 50 %, 80 % and 60 % after 4, 6, and 8 weeks. Expression of K-ras, C-erbB2, COX-2 and PSCA were higher in pancreatic cancer cells than in normal pancreas cells. However, p53 and DPC4 expression were lower than normal. Conclusion Neural invasion model with human pancreatic cancer cell line MIA PaCa-Ⅱ orthotopic implantation tumor is successfully established in nude mice. The best time for exploring perinerval invasion is the sixth weeks. Every index studied may play important roles in the development of pancreatic cancer.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effects of perforator flaps in the repair of limb defects.Methods:Anterolateral thigh perforator flap (ALTP), deep inferior epigastric perforator flap (DIEP), posterior in- terosseous artery perforator flap (PIAP), thoracodorsal artery perforator flap (TDAP), medial sural artery perforator flap (MSAP) and radial collateral artery perforator flap (RCAP) were used to repair 56 cases of limb wounds from Novem- ber, 2016 to October, 2018. The sizes of soft tissue defect were ranged from 1.5 cm×1.5 cm to 10.0 cm×24.0 cm, while the sizes of flap were ranged from 2.0 cm×2.0 cm to 11.0 cm×25.0 cm. The recipient sites were all sutured di- rectly. The flaps survived and wound healing were observed postoperatively. Appearance, texture, recovery of the limb function, shape and function of donor site were followed-up regularly.Results:One case of venous crisis occurred on the 3rd day after inferior epigastric artery perforator flap surgery, and survived after exploratory surgery with the necrosis in the distal part of the flap, which healed after dressing. Other 55 flaps all survived. Both recipient site and donor site healed in primary union. The color of the flaps was normal. The skins were soft, and the functions of the limbs recovered well. Only a linear scar remained in the donor area without dysfunction.Conclusion:The perforator flap surgery is reliable for limbs repair and can be promoted and applied.
