Objective: To observe the role of parenteral nutrition and laparoscopic therapy in chylous ascites.Methods: A patient with chylous ascites was therapied with parenteral nutrition(4 weeks) and laparoscopic therapy and parenteral nutrition(1 week) subsequently.Output of ascites was daily measured from the drainage catheter of abdominal cavity.The body weight and other nutritional indexes were determined.Results: During the course of parenteral nutrition,the production and output of ascites gradually decreased,the body weight increased,and the serum album in level kept unchanged.After laparoscopic therapy and parenteral nutrition(1 week),ascites decreased significantly and did not rebound after diet,the body weight and the serum album in level also obviously increased.Conclusion: Laparoscopic therapy and parenteral nutrition are very useful in the treatment of patients with chylous ascites.

Objective To explore the therapeutic strategy and clinical value of intraoperative chole-dochoscopy and electrohydraulic lithotripsy for refractory intrahepatic bile duct stones.Methods Liver pa-renchyma,intrahepatic bile duct and bile duct stones were explored under direct vision and intraoperative choledochoscope in 1 1 cases of refractory intrahepatic bile duct stones.Electrohydraulic lithotripsy and lithot-omy were performed to remove the stones and protect the liver parenchyma.If the stones could not be re-moved once,a secondary lithotripsy and lithotomy was performed through the fistula tract.Results All re-fractory calculi were crushed after one or two procedures and the clearance rate were 100%.No complica-tions occurred.Ten patients were followed up from 1 to 3 years except one.Three cases revealed recurrent stone during follow-up due to withdrawal of ursodeoxycholic acid capsules in 1 to 2 years.Seven others showed no stone recurrence within follow-up time.Conclusion Intraoperative choledochoscopy and electro-hydraulic lithotripsy is an easy technique and can effectively protect the liver parenchyma.The life quality of patients can be improved with low surgical risk and postoperative complications.

Objective:To investigate the application value of Laennec approach in laparoscopic anatomical right hemihepatectomy (LARH).Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 2 female patients who underwent LARH via Laennec approach in the First Affiliated Hospital of Kangda College of Nanjing Medical University from May to July 2020 were collected. The two patients were 51 and 57 years old, respectively. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) postoperative situations and follow-up. Follow-up using outpatient examination and telephone interview was conducted to detect post-operative survival and tumor recurrence of patients up to December 2020. Count data were repre-sented as absolute numbers.Results:(1) Surgical situations: 2 patients successfully underwent LARH via Laennec approach, without conversion to open surgery. The operation time was 180 minutes and 185 minutes, and the volume of intraoperative blood loss was 200 mL and 400 mL, respectively. No blood transfusion or gastrointestinal decompression was performed in either patient. (2) Postoperative situations and follow-up: 2 patients began to take liquid diet on the first day and out-of-bed activities on the postoperative second to third day. There was no postoperative bile fistula or bleeding, but different degrees of peritoneal and pleural effusion occurred to the 2 patients after operation. One case was improved after right-sided thoracentesis and chest tube drainage due to dyspnea, and the other case was cured after conservative therapy. There was no perioperative death. The duration of postoperative hospital stay of 2 patients was 13 days and 11 days, respectively. Results of pathological examination showed 1 case of hepatic hemangioma and 1 case of primary liver cancer, respectively. The Laennec capsule was observed on the hepatic vein branches of segment Ⅴ, Ⅵ, Ⅶ, Ⅷ, and the gap existed between the Laennec capsule and the hepatic vein. Two patients were followed up for 7 months and 5 months，respectively. They survived during the follow-up，without tumor recurrence.Conclusion:It is safe and feasible to perform LARH by Laennec approach.

Objective: To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of infectious diseases at schools in Beijing from 2010 to 2020, providing evidence for the prevention and control strategies in school infectious diseases. Methods: Information on public health emergencies was collected from Public Health Emergency Reporting System (the subsystem of Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System) reported from 2010 to 2020. Results: A total of 146 public health emergencies and 138 public health emergencies of infectious diseases in schools were reported in Beijing from 2010 to 2020, including 4 291 cases with the rate of 2.32% and affected or exposed 185 179 cases. There were significant difference in mean annual incidence rates( χ 2=782.46, P <0.01). There were 71 events of respiratory infectious diseases and 66 events of intestinal infectious diseases, accounting for 51.45% and 47.83%, respectively. The annual incidence peaks of public health emergencies of infectious diseases were during March-June and October-December. The events mainly occurred in kindergartens and primary schools among each stage of school periods with 51 and 46 incidences respectively, which accounted for 70.29% of the total number of public health emergencies in schools. The leading infectious diseases among all the reported events in kindergartens and primary schools were hand foot mouth disease and varicella. Varicella and other infectious diarrhoeal diseases were at the top lists of infectious disease outbreaks at the secondary and university stages. Conclusion Infectious diseases events were the major type of public health emergencies at schools in Beijing from 2010 to 2020. Respiratory infectious diseases and intestinal infectious diseases were the keys to the prevention and control of public health emergencies related to school. It is necessary to strengthen the surveillance for public health emergencies especially for symptom surveillance. The prevention and control measures should be taken according to the characteristics of different age groups. At the same time, the prevention and control of school infectious diseases and the drill of the plan during peak periods need to be particularly strengthened.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy in obese adolescents.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinical data of 37 obese adolescents who were admitted to Drum Tower Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing University Medical School between July 2016 and August 2020 were collected. There were 18 males and 19 females, aged 18(range, 13?19)years. All patients underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrec-tomy. Observation indicators: (1) surgical and postoperative situations; (2) follow-up. The patients were followed up by outpatient review to detect body weight, blood glucose, blood lipid, blood pressure, nutrition situation and related complications at 3, 6 and 12 months after operation. The follow-up was up to August 2021. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD. Repeated measurement data were analyzed by Repeated Measures Anova. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented by M(range). Count data were expressed as absolute numbers or percentages. Results:(1) Surgical and postoperative situations. All 37 patients under-went laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy successfully, the operative time was (50±7)minutes, the volume of intraoperative blood loss was (53±17)mL, and the duration of postoperative hospital stay was (3.0±0.5)days. Of the 37 patients, 2 cases had puncture infection. There was no complication such as bleeding occurred. (2) Follow-up. Of the 37 patients, 35, 31 and 22 cases were followed up at postoperative 3, 6 and 12 months, respectively. There was no anemia, malnutrition, trace element deficiency or other nutrition-related complications during the follow-up, and there was no death. The body mass, body mass index, homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance, triglyceride, total cholesterol, systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, vitamin D, folate of the 37 patients were (117±19)kg, (40±5)kg/m 2, 6.59(range, 2.84?28.02), (1.6±0.7)mmol/L, (4.5±0.7)mmol/L, (141±22)mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kpa), (84±18)mmHg,(14±5)μg/L, (10±5)μg/L before the surgery, and (81±15)kg, (27±4)kg/m 2, 2.69(range, 1.08?9.71), (0.9±0.5)mmol/L, (4.5±0.7)mmol/L, (115±15)mmHg, (70±11)mmHg, (23±10)μg/L, (9±5)μg/L at postoperative 12 months. There were significant differences in the time effect of above indicators ( Ftime=214.14, 160.37, 12.66, 11.77, 2.90, 18.08, 11.32, 8.61, 5.04, P<0.05). The percentages of excess of body mass index lost of the 37 patients were 48%±19%, 77%±28% and 89%±24% at postoperative 3, 6 and 12 months, the percentages of excess weight loss were 42%±13%, 63%±17% and 75%±18%, the percentages of total body weight loss were 18%±5%, 26%±6% and 34%±7%, respectively. There were significant differences in the time effect of above indicators ( Ftime=83.96, 107.24, 109.06, P<0.05). The hemoglobin A1c was 4.8%, 5.0%, 5.1% and 4.9%, 5.2%, 5.2% in the 2 patients with type 2 diabetes at postoperative 3, 6 and 12 months, respectively, and they were relieved without drug treatment.

BACKGROUND: Management of gastric leak after sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is challenging due to its unpredictable outcomes. We aimed to summarize the characteristics of SG leaks and analyze interventions and corresponding outcomes in a real-world setting. METHODS: To retrospectively review of 15,721 SG procedures from 2010 to 2020 based on a national registry. A cumulative sum analysis was used to identify a fitting curve of gastric leak rate. The Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank tests were performed to calculate and compare the probabilities of relevant outcomes. The logistic regression analysis was conducted to determine the predictors of acute leaks. RESULTS: A total of 78 cases of SG leaks were collected with an incidence of 0.5% (78/15,721) from this registry (6 patients who had the primary SG in non-participating centers). After accumulating 260 cases in a bariatric surgery center, the leak rate decreased to a stably low value of under 1.17%. The significant differences presented in sex, waist circumference, and the proportion of hypoproteinemia and type 2 diabetes at baseline between patients with SG leak and the whole registry population ( P = 0.005, = 0.026, <0.001, and = 0.001, respectively). Moreover, 83.1% (59/71) of the leakage was near the esophagogastric junction region. Leakage healed in 64 (88.9%, 64/72) patients. The median healing time of acute and non-acute leaks was 5.93 months and 8.12 months, respectively. Acute leak (38/72, 52.8%) was the predominant type with a cumulative reoperation rate >50%, whereas the cumulative healing probability in the patients who required surgical treatment was significantly lower than those requring non-surgical treatment ( P = 0.013). Precise dissection in the His angle area was independently associated with a lower acute leak rate, whereas preservation ≥2 cm distance from the His angle area was an independent risk factor. CONCLUSIONS Male sex, elevated waist circumference, hypoproteinaemia, and type 2 diabetes are risk factors of gastric leaks after SG. Optimizing surgical techniques, including precise dissection of His angle area and preservation of smaller gastric fundus, should be suggested to prevent acute leaks.
