Objective To determine the association of gallstone,cholecystectomy and colorectal cancer.Methods From 2000 through 2007,a historical cohort study was carried out in the check analysis of the cumulative incidence of colorectal cancer of 3809 gallstone patients who had had cholecystectomies (cholecystectomy sub-group),1764 gallstone patients who had not had cholecystectomies(noncholecystectomy sub-group)and 8187 nongallstone patients(control group)were also included in the analysis of the incidence of colorectal cancer.Results(1)The cumulative incidence of colorectal cancer of the gall-stone group was 0.43 %(24/5573)while that of the control group was 0.13 %(11/8187)(x2 =11.879,P =0.001).(2)The cumulative incidence of colorectal cancer in cholecystectomy sub-group was 0.45%(17/3890)while that of the non-cholecystectomy sub-group was 0.40%(7/1764)(x2=0.069,P =0.793).(3)The cumulative incidence of colorectal cancer was 0.23%(8/3467)in gallstone patients with a conrse < 15 years,while that was 0.76%(16/2106)when the course ≥ 15 years(x2 =8.550,P =0.003).(4)Serum triglyceride level elevated in 20.83%(5/24)colorectal cancer cases of gallstone group,however serum triglyceride level elevated only in 5.86%(325/5549)of gallstone group with non-colorectal cancer cases(x2 =9.621,P =0.002).(5)The incidence of colorectal cancer in gallstone group was not related to gender,age,overweight,hypertension,diabetes mellitus and dysfunction of liver(x2 =1.444,P =0.229;x2=7.833,P=0.251;x2 =1.151,P=0.283;x2 =0.797,P=0.372;x2 =0.939,P=0.332;x2 =2.103,P =0.147).(6)The ratio of rectal cancer,right colonic cancer,left colonic cancer and multifocal carcinoma were 41%(10/24),38%(9/24),17%(4/24)and4%(1/24),respectively.Conclusions Gallstone is a high risk factor of colorectal cancer irrespective of whether or not a cholecystectomy is carried out.Over fifteen-years course of gallstone and hypertriglyceridemia significantly increases the risk of the colorectal cancer in gallstone patients.The incidence of rectal cancer and right colonic cancer is more frequently seen in gallstone related colorectal cancer.

Objective:To look for the problems faced in the construction of the tele-critical care system, explore the framework of construction of the tele-critical care system, and verify the application effects of the established tele-critical care system.Methods:Through literature review and on-site investigation and demonstration, the causes affecting the construction of the tele-critical care system were explored. Through on-site investigation of the actual situation of the critical care department in relevant hospitals, arguing and choosing intended intensive care unit (ICU) and cooperative third-party communication and equipment companies, and through the Internet of Things and 5G communication technology, a tele-critical care system with the core hospital of the group as the center and the member institutes within the group as the nodes was built. Via the established tele-critical care system, activities such as tele-monitoring, visual remote ward rounds, remote consultation, remote teaching were carried out to verify the functions of the system.Results:The insufficient cognition of relevant personnel, tele-medicine practice certification requirements, information security issues and the barriers of equipment information integration were the main causes affecting the construction of tele-critical care system. There were five parts in the tele-critical care system architecture foundations, including bed unit equipment and audio and video information collection system, lossless and secure transmission of collected information, real-time display of information in the remote center, real-time staff interaction between the centre and the nodal hospitals, and information cloud storage. It has been verified that patients' diagnostic and treatment information can be transmitted safely, losslessly and in real-time by a special line through private 5G network. Through this system, real-time and stable upload of audio and video information of patients and application information of monitors, ventilators and infusion work stations can be achieved; combined with tele-conference connections to conduct two-way communication with local medical staff, real-time tele-monitoring, visual remote ward rounds, remote consultation, remote teaching and other functions can be achieved.Conclusion:The tele-critical care system we established is feasible to construct within the medical group and can safely and effectively realize the functions of real-time tele-monitoring, visual remote ward rounds, remote consultation, and remote teaching.
