Objective To investigate the influence of Zengshiling oral liquid on gastric emptying,plasma motilin (MOT) and small intestine propulsion of young rat. Methods Experiment animal were divided into five groups randomly:control group,large dose of Zengshiling oral liquid group,normal dose of Zengshiling oral liquid group,small dose of Zengshiling oral liquid group and Motilium group. The rats were gavaged by 0.9% of NaCl and corresponding drug. 7 days later,gastric emptying was assayed by phenol red,plasma MOT levels and carbon powder propelling rate of small intestine were also assayed. Results The rate of gastric emptying of Zengshiling oral liquid groups were significantly higher than control group (P

Objective To evaluate the accuracy of image registration based on bony structure (RBS) and grey-scale (RGS) in positioning correction of radiation treatment,and their reliability in clinical application.Methods Setup errors of anthropomorphic phantom (chest& abdomen,head& neck) were simulated with x-,y-,z-directions.CBCT images were acquired for each simulation and registered with planning CT.using bony structure and grey-scale registration separately.Geometry accuracy of all registration were then obtained and analyzed.Results The errors of RBS and RGS in x-,y-,z-directions were (-0.65 ±0.22) mm and (-0.70±0.17) mm (P=0.00),(1.02 ±0.27) mm and (0.90±0.20) mm (P =0.00),(1.46 ± 0.53) mm and (1.47 ± 0.47) mm (P =0.54) for head& neck positioning; with (0.82±0.33) mm and (0.79±0.18) mm (P=0.03),(2.45±1.17) mm and (1.61 ±0.84) mm (P =0.00),(1.44 ± 3.25) mm and (0.19 ± 1.11) mm (P =0.00) for chest& abdomen positioning.Conclusions RGS is more accurate and stable than RBS.The accuracy of image registration is a little better for head& neck than that for chest& abdomen.The algorithms of image registration used in clinical application needs to be tested independently and the systematic error needs to be corrected before applying in different treatment techniques according to their accuracy requirement.

Objective To seek a new method to identify viability of myocardium by adenosine stress echocardiography combined with quantitative tissue velocity imaging(QTVI)and tissue tracking(TT).Methods Fifteen healthy canines were selected to establish the models of acute myocardial infarction and reperfusion by ligating anterior descending branch of coronary artery for 90 minutes and then releasing the artery to get reperfusion.After reperfusion.peak velocity in systole(Vs),peak velocity in isovolumic contraction(VIVC)and the displacement in systole(Ds)were measured on anterior wall and anterior septum at baseline.The 2,3,5-triphenyl tetrazolium chloride(TTC)staining was set as a"gold standard"for defining the viable and non-viable groups.The sensitivity and specificity of assessing myocardial viability were determined with QTVI and TT.Comparison of variables between viable and non-viable group was made by using t test.One way analysis of variance and LSD-t test were used to estimate the significance of differences in different states.Results Compared with baseline,Vs,VIVC and Ds decreased significantly(P＜0.01)after reperfusion in both viable and non-viable group.After administration of adenosine,Vs and Ds increased(P＜0.05),but VIVC didn't change significantly compared with that before administration of adenosine in viable group(P＞0.05).Variables in non-viable group didn't change significantly after administration of adenosine(P＞0.05).By receiver operating characteristic(ROC)analysis for predicting myocardial viability,when a cutoff value of △Vs(%)rate was 17.9,the sensitivity and the specificity was 78.6%and 81.1%,respectively,and when the cutoff value of △Ds(%)rate was 18.4,the sensitivity and the specificity was 75.0%,83.6%,respectively.Combined △Vs(%)with △Ds(%),the sensitivity and specificity to prediction of myocardium viability could reach 94.6%and 68.0%,respectively.Conclusions When the viability of myocardium after myocardial infarction is assessed by using the method of adenosine stress echocardiography with QTVI and TT,the sensitivity and the specificity are greatly enhanced.

Objective To observe the physique and anatomy changes in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) during intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), using repeated CT images and deformable registration technique, and analyze their impact on delivery dose distribution.Methods Ten NPC patients were randomly selected from those who had received IMRT treatment.Gross tumor volume of nasopharyn (GTVnx), GTV of metastastatic lymph node (GTVnd), clinical target volume (CTV) and normal tissue or organ (OAR) were re-contoured on the in-course repeated CT images using a kind of deformable registration and auto-segmentation software according to the original planning contouring.Changes in volume of treatment targets and organs at risk were evaluated and the trends were then analyzed.Dose distributions were recalculated with repeated CT images and compared to the original plans.Results The volume of GTVnx were decreased by 6.44%,10.23% and9.72%(F=1.34,P=0.278) in the 2-,4-and 6-week after IM RT comparing with before IM RT, with 6.59%, 30.98 % and 35.13 % (F = 9.22, P =0.000) in GTVnd, 0.73%, 1.86% and 1.41% (F=0.33,P=0.722) in CTV1, -1.78%, -6.47%and -9.34% (F =16.89 ,P =0.000) in CTV2, 13.96%, 32.97% and 37.77%(F=17.17,P=0.000)in the left parotid , and 3.56% , 29.57% and 35.63% (F = 13.49 , P = 0.000) in the right parotid.The mean dose change rate of GTVnx were -0.39%, 0.08% and 0.32% (F =0.15 ,P =0.860) in the 2-,4- and 6-week after IMRT comparing with planning faction dose, with 0.53%, 1.19% and 0.69% (F=0.81,P=0.455) in GTVnd, 1.95%, 2.70% and 3.78% (F=0.61,P=0.552) in the spinal cord,0.32%, 0.81% and 0.62% (F=0.03,P=0.975) in the brain stem, 4.50%, 4.66% and 7.20% (F=0.33,P=0.725) in the left parotid, 2.20%, 7.17% and 7.12% (F= 1.24,P=0.306) in the right parotid.Conclusions The GTVnd, CTV2 and parotids shrinks obviously along with the treatment times for NPC patients during IMRT.Although changes in fraction dose of GTV, CTV, spinal cord, stem and parotids are not significant, further study with larger samples is needed.

Objective To evaluate the short and long term efficacy of self-expandable metallic stent implantation through bronchoscope in the management of the patients with malignant airway stenosis.Methods Seventy-four hospitalized patients with malignant airway stenosis during a 10-year period were selected as our subjects from Dec.2002 to Nov.2012 in the Respiratory Department of the Central Hospital of Wuhan.All these patients underwent bronchoscope for nitinol self-expandable metallic stent implantation.Clinical improvement,6min walking distance (6MWT),mMRC index,arterial blood gas,as well as early and late postoperative complications were investigated.Results A total of 77 stents were implanted,including 34 covered metallic stents and 43 uncovered metallic stents.All patients showed the obvious relief of dyspnea after the operation.6MWT at pre-operation was (172 ± 45)m and (288 ± 36)m at 28 week post-operation.Arterial blood gas was (61.34 ±6.44)mmHg at pre-opemtion and (72.12 ±6.87) mmHg at 28 week post-operation.mMRC was 3.56 ± 0.44 at pre-operation and 1.96 ± 0.37 at 28 week post-operation.All these differences were significant(P ＜ 0.01).The operation succeeded in releasing bucking of patients with esophago-tracheal fistula.Symptoms such as fever,cough,pharyngodynia,foreign body sensation and hemoptysis were observed,and all the above side effect could be solved while no serious complications arose.Conclusion Bronchoscopic insertion of metallic airway stents for malignant airway stenosis is a safe and effective procedure that could obviously relieve respiratory distress and improve the quality of life.

Objective To treat complex wounds of the chest wall tuberculosis by the use of wound healing techniques (focal debridement + the VSD) and joint plastic surgery (transfer of skin flap, skin graft, flap stuffing, etc) and to explore the clinical features of the tuberculous chest wound, the feasibility and effectiveness of treatments.Methods Clinical data of 11 hospitalized patients with chest wall tuberculosis were collected during 2012-2014.The therapeutic effect, intraoperative and postoperative complications, and postoperative follow-up were retrospectively analyzed.Results Among 7 cases using lesion debridement, VSD suction drainage and local flap repair (skin grafting), 6 cases were cured.The response rate was 90.9%.All 4 cases using debridement and local flap repair (skin grafting) were cured.Only one case of recurrence was observed during the follow-up period of 3-34 months.Conclusions Using of wound healing techniques with plastic surgery is an effective treatment, which has good therapeutic effect on the wound deeply infiltrated.

Objective:To explore the risk factors influencing the prognosis for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) recurrence after liver transplantation and summarize the relevant diagnostic and therapeutic experiences.Methods:The clinicopathological features with diagnosis and treatment plan of 102 recurrent HCC patients fulfilling the Fudan Criteria were compared for survival rate (univariate analysis) and independent prognostic indicators were obtained by Cox multivariate analysis.Results:The 1/3/5-year overall survival rates were 92.2%, 48.6% and 34.6% and the 1/3/5-year survival rates with tumor were 63.2%, 31.0% and 16.7% respectively. Cox regression analysis indicated that patient age, whether tumor can be surgically resected or not and personalized diagnostic & therapeutic plan based upon targeted therapy were independent prognostic factors affecting the overall survival rates and survival rates with tumor.Conclusions:Although HCC recurrence and metastasis after liver transplantation seriously influence patient prognosis, satisfactory outcomes may be obtained for some patients through active, effective and precise managements.

It is significant to establish scene ECG database which improves the automatic diagnostic function of electrocardiograph under different application scenarios. We built the ECG database in different scene according to the hospital level (grade 3, grade 2, grade 1) and clinical environment (intensive care and acute wards, outpatient clinics and general wards). Sample size was obtained according to the incidence of various ECG diagnoses. The database covers ECG signal, ECG waveform, ECG characteristic values, ECG diagnostic results by experts and clinical information of patients etc. It not only provides important reference for electrocardiograph manufacturers to evaluate and test the parameters of automatic diagnosis under different clinical scene, but also provides valuable scientific research and teaching resources for medical workers.

Objective:To investigate the safety and feasibility of minimally invasive pancreatic tumor enucleation.Methods:The clinicopathological data of 60 patients with minimally invasive pancreatic tumor enucleation admitted to the Department of Pancreatic Surgery of Fudan University Cancer Center from November 2019 to August 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 17 males and 43 females,with age of (50.0±13.2)years(range: 23 to 73 years). Tumors were located in the head of pancreas in 40 cases(66.7%),neck and tail of pancreas in 20 cases(33.3%). Patients were divided into robotic group( n=25) and laparoscopic group( n=35) according to surgical methods. The measurement data were compared by t-test or Mann-Whitney U test, and the categorical data were compared by χ 2 test or Fisher exact probability method. The influencing factors of postoperative pancreatic fistula were analyzed by univariate and multivariate Logistic regression. Results:All patients successfully completed tumor enucleation without conversion to laparotomy. The operation time was (183.5±67.3)minutes(range:90 to 410 minutes). Twelve patients(20.0%) underwent stent placement and pancreatic duct repair during operation. The removal time of abdominal drainage tube after operation was (24.7±22.9)days(range:2 to 113 days). The tumor diameter in the robotic group was larger than that in the laparoscopic group((3.5±0.9)cm vs. (2.9±0.7)cm, t=-2.825, P=0.006). The incidences of postoperative biochemical fistula and grade B pancreatic fistula were 20.0%,22.9% and 36.0%,51.4%,respectively(χ2=2.289, P=0.318). There were no grade C pancreatic fistula,lymphatic fistula,biliary fistula,delayed gastric emptying,secondary operation and perioperative death in both groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed on the occurrence of clinically related pancreatic fistula(above grade B). The results showed that the increase of body mass index( OR=1.285,95% CI:1.053 to 1.569, P=0.014),the larger diameter of the tumor( OR=3.703,95% CI:1.465 to 9.360, P=0.006) and intraoperative pancreatic duct repair( OR=7.889,95% CI:1.471 to 42.296, P=0.016) were independent risk factors,whereas robotic surgery( OR=0.168,95% CI:0.036 to 0.796, P=0.025) was a protective factor. No case of pancreatin dependent dyspepsia and new onset diabetes mellitus was observed. Conclusions:Minimally invasive tumor enucleation is feasible in the treatment of benign and low-grade pancreatic tumors. The incidence of pancreatic fistula is high in the short term after operation,but serious complications are rare. The robot assisted system can reduce the risk of postoperative pancreatic fistula and has more advantages in dealing with larger diameter tumors because of clearer surgical vision and more accurate operation.
