Objective Aims To investigate the dynamic changes of multi-organ functional indices in esophageal carcinoma patients during peri-operation period at flatland and moderate high altitude. Methods 44 cases of esophageal carcinoma scheduled to receive gastroesophagostomy were categorized semi-randomly into three groups: Flatland control group (FCG, n=8), moderate altitude lung protection group (MPG, n=16), moderate altitude control group (MCG, n=20). The cases in FCG and MCG underwent routine pulmonary function examination and respiratory tract preparation peri-operatively. Besides the above routine treatment, the cases in MTG received administration of Rahdiola compound capsules preoperatively, with 2 pills a day. Blood-gas and biochemical indices of multi-organs were recorded in the three groups preoperatively and at 1, 3, and 5 days postoperatively respectively. The patients' systematic reaction, the changing trend of the indices reflecting organs function and the postoperative complication were observed. Results The blood-gas parameters were different significantly both preoperatively and postoperatively between the three groups. While other indices reflecting the organs function were not different significantly between the three groups before the operation, but at 1, 3, 5 days postoperatively, the indices in MCG and MPG were significantly different with that in FCG (P

Objective To evaluate the guiding role of capsule endoscopy (CE) in choosing the access route of double-balloon enteroscopy (DBE) for small bowel diseases. Methods Patients with complete CE and with small bowel diseases confirmed by DBE were enrolled. The lesion location found on CE was represented by the time index, which was the ratio of access time from pylorus to lesion over access time from pylorus to ileocecal valve. Based on our previous retrospective evaluation, oral approach was selected when the index was ≤0. 6, otherwise the anal access would be chosen. Accuracy of time index predicting DBE access rout was evaluated. Results Data of 60 patients undergoing both CE and DBE were evaluated. All lesions detected by CE were confirmed by DBE, with 41 via oral route and 19 via anus. Based on the time index with threshold of 0.6, the accuracy of selecting the insertion route of DBE was 100%. Conclusion DBE is an effective approach to confirm CE results. In patients with complete small bowel investigation by CE, the insertion route for DBE can be reliably indicated with time index based on the CE results.

Objective To evaluate the predictive value of morphology of superficial depression in estimation of histology and invasive depth in colorectal neoplasia by using magnifying chromo-endoscopy.Methods Flat or depressed and sessile eolorectal lesions which were indicated for endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) were consecutively collected. Depressed lesions were classified into type 1 (star-like) and type 2 (round) according to the morphology of depressive areas in the colorectal neoplasia with magnifying ehromoendoscopy. The relationship between morphologic classification with histology and invasive depth was studied with reference to pathological diagnosis after EMR. Results Ninety lesions including 25 sessile and 65 flat were resected with EMR. Lesions with central depression (54. 4%,49/90) were more likely to have high-grade dysplasia (HGD) or cancer than those without ( 51.0% vs. 17. 1%,P<0. 001 ). Depressive lesions of type 2 were more susceptible to have HGD or cancer than those of type 1 (89. 5% vs. 26. 7%,P<0. 001 ). The overall accuracy of depression morphology for distinction between lesions of superficial submueosal (m-sm1) and deep submucosal (sm2-sm3) invasion was 83. 7% (41/49). Conclusion The morphology of superficial depression on colorectal neoplasia is highly correlated with the histology and invasive depth,which facilitates the EMR treatment.
