Objective To obtain Hangzhou residents' awareness, understanding, demands, and intentions of health examination and explore the factors influencing health examination. Methods Totally 1 183 residents (male: 542, female: 641, aged from15 to 80 years) were investigated by mean of questionnaire which included demographic characteristics, health status, medical behavior and awareness, the subjective reasons of unwilling to take health examination, the intention of choosing an institution, and the data of questionnaire were analyzed using single factor Chi-square test and conditional logistic regression analysis. Results Single factor Chi-square test showed that the factors affecting health examination participation which have statistical significances were as follows, gender (χ2=11.61,P=0.000), age (χ2=9.09, P=0.028), residence registration (χ2=44.16,P=0.000), marital status (χ2=8.96,P=0.03), educational backgroud (χ2=17.33,P=0.000), employment status (χ2=7.97,P=0.005), personal monthly income (χ2=22.82, P=0.000), having any kinds of health insurance (χ2=16.08,P=0.000), and the health examination fees paid by company (χ2=44.78,P=0.000). Conditional logistic regress analysis showed that the related fators which affecting the peoples participating rates of taking health examination are gender (P=0.003, OR=1.782), residence registration (P=0.000, OR=2.208), personal monthly income (P=0.009, OR=1.307), taking any kinds of insurance (P=0.004,OR=2.913)and the company organizing and paying for the healthy examination or not (P=0.000,OR=1.923). Conclusion The participation rates of taking health examination were affected by the factors such as male, younger than 45 years old, divorce, temporary residents, the jobless, low educational diploma and income, not having any insurance, taking the health examinaiton at their own expense and so on.

ObjectiveTo compare the efficacy of intravenous infusion of dexmedetomidine and midazolam for premedication in children.MethodsNinety-two ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ children (46 cases aged 1-3 yr and 46 cases aged 4-6 yr) scheduled for elective general or urologic surgeries,were enrolled in this study.The children were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =46 each):midazolam group (group M) and dexmedetomidine group (group D).The children accompanied by their parents were admitted to the anesthesia preparation room at about 20 min before induction of anesthesia,and midazolam 0.1 mg/kg òr dexmedetomidine 1 μg/kg was infused intravenously over 10 min.Anesthesia was induced with proporol-rocuroniume-remifentanil,and maintained with sevoflurane-remifentanil-rocuroniume.Modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale (mYPAS) score,sedation score,HR,mean arterial pressure (MAP),respiratory rate (RR) and SpO2 were recorded before premedication (T1),before separation from their parents (T2) and when entering the operating room (T3).The incidence of sleep (a sedation score of 4) was recorded at T2,3.The end-tidal concentration of sevoflurane,infusion rate of remifentanil,laryngeal air way removal time,emergence time,duration of stay at the recovery room,incidence of delirium during recovery period,the percentage of patients requiring rescue analgesic,and adverse effects were also retorded.ResultsCompared to that at T1,the mYPAS score was significantly decreased at T2,3,and the sedation score was significantly increased at T2,3 in both groups ( P ＜ 0.05),HR at T2 and MAP at T2,3 were significantly decreased in group D,and HR at T3 was significantly increased in group M ( P ＜ 0.05 ).Compared to group M,the sedation scores and the incidence of sleep were significantly increased at T2,3,and the HR was significantly decreased at T2 in group D ( P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in the mYPAS score,RR,MAP,SpO2,end-tidal concentration of sevoflurane,infusion rate of remifentanil,laryngeal air way removal time,emergence time,duration of stay at the recovery room,incidence of delirium during recovery period,the percentage of patients requiting rescue analgesic,and incidence of adverse effects between D and M groups ( P ＞ 0.05).ConclusionThe sedative efficacy of iv dexmedetomidine is superior to that of iv midazolam when infused for premedication in children,but it exerts much influence on hemodynamics,and the changes in hemodynamics should be noted.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between Creactive protein(CRP)/albumin ratio (CAR) and lymph node metastasis of gastric cancer. Methods:A total of 96 cases of gastric cancer were included in the study. The clinical pathological stage and lymph node detection in patients with gastric cancer were analyzed, with the preoperative CAR as the dependent variable. Results:1) The pa-tients with preoperative CAR>0.04 has higher transfer rate and metastasis than the patients with preoperative CAR≤0.04, and the dif-ference was significant (P<0.05). The lymph node stage of patients with preoperative CAR>0.04 was significantly higher than that of the patients with preoperative CAR≤0.04, and the difference was significant (P<0.05). 2) The mean CAR of patients with Borrmann typesⅠ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ, andⅣgradually increased;with the progression of the pathological stage of gastric cancer, the mean value of CAR in-creased. 3) During the operation, the total number of lymph node dissections was high and the mean value of CAR before the opera-tion was high. Conclusion:The correlation between preoperative CAR and lymph node metastasis in patients with gastric cancer may reflect the degree of lymph node metastasis to a certain extent.

Objective To explore the efficacy of peroneus brevis tendon transfer and peroneal tendofascial flap for repairing achilles tendon and overlying skin defect.Methods From April,2004 to May,2015,5 cases of achilles tendon and overlying skin defect were treated with peroneus brevis tendon transfer and peroneal tendofascial flap.In these cases,the length of the achilles tendon defect was from 3.0 cm to 8.0 cm,and the size of skin defect ranged from 2.0 cm × 3.0 cm to 3.0 cm × 5.0 cm.Using peroneus brevis tendon to reconstruct achilles tendon defect,and covered with peroneal tendofascial flap,and then skin graft.One of them combined with the gastrocnemius tendon V-Y advancement to promote the reconstruction of achilles tendon longer defect.The patients were followed-up regularly,and evaluated by the American Society of Ankle Arrhythmia (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot scoring system.ResultsAll operations were successful and the grafted skin survived.All cases were followed-up from 6 months to 10 years with an average of 5.2 years.At the time of last followed-up,all wounds healed well without re-infection and ulceration.Not foot varus deformity and the strongth was back to the level before the injury.AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score was increased from (50.44 ± 12.05)(preoperative) to (90.02 ± 6.55)(the last follow-up) (P＜0.05).Conclusion There were some advantages in the method of the treatment of achilles tendon and overlying skin defect by using peroneus brevis tendon transfer and peroneal tendofascial flap,such as easy to cut,small damage to the donor area,and no significant deformity to the receptor area,etc.It is a good way to repair achilles tendon and overlying skin defects.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the better method of digestive tract reconstruction in proximal gastrectomy for early gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma.

METHODSA total of 153 cases of early gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma who were planned to receive radical proximal gastrectomy from January 2003 to December 2011 were prospectively enrolled and randomly divided into two groups by table of random number according to methods of digestive tract reconstruction, including 3S anastomosis group (80 cases, 3S jejunal interposition) and traditional anastomosis group (73 cases, esophageal remnant gastric posterior wall anastomosis). Postoperative complications, operative time, mortality, nutritional parameters and postoperative quality of life were compared between these two groups.

RESULTSThere were no significant differences between two groups in postoperative complications, operative time and mortality (all P>0.05). 3S anastomosis group was better in nutritional parameters than traditional group six months after operation (P<0.05). As compared to traditional group, incidence of reflux esophagitis decreased [20.0%(16/80) vs. 46.6%(34/73), P<0.01] and gastric emptying time prolonged obviously [(160.8±8.1) min vs. (61.1±10.8) min, P<0.01] in 3S anastomosis group 18 months after operation. Postoperative QLQ-C30 rating scale revealed quality of life was significantly higher in 3S anastomosis group as compared to traditional group.

CONCLUSIONJejunal interposition is a better method of digestive tract reconstruction in proximal gastrectomy for early gastroesophageal junction carcinoma.

OBJECTIVETo study the safety and feasibility of fast track surgery (FTS) in the promotion of postoperative recovery for gastric cancer patients undergoing gastrectomy.

METHODSFrom January to December in 2013, 71 gastric cancer patients were prospectively enrolled and randomized into the FTS group and the control group. Patient in the FTS group received FTS management and those in the control group received routine management. The postoperative recovery and stress were compared between the two groups.

RESULTSFTS was associated with shorter time to bowel function return [(67.8±19.7) h vs. (90.0±20.6) h, P<0.01], shorter hospital stay [(13.5±3.0) d vs. (17.8±7.3) d, P=0.01], lower hospital cost [(23.8±3.7) thousand Yuan vs. (27.8±6.1) thousand Yuan, P<0.05], and less stress response (lower pain score, WBC count, C-reactive protein, all P<0.01). The postoperative complications including ileus, infection, anastomotic leakage were similar (all P>0.05).

CONCLUSIONFast track surgery decreases postoperative stress response and promotes recovery.

Objective:To compare minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis (MIPPO) and open reduction and internal fixation via traditional lateral L-type approach (ORIF-LA) in the therapeutic effects concerning reduction and calcaneal alignment for Sanders Ⅲ/Ⅳ calcaneal fractures.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted of the 105 patients with calcaneal fracture who had been treated at Department of Foot and Ankle Surgery, Qilu Hospital from 2014.1 to 2018.2. Of them, 50 were treated with MIPPO (group A) and the other 55 with ORIF-LA (group B). The X-ray lateral and axial films, three-dimensional computed tomography (CT) of the calcaneal were taken pre-operatively and post-operatively to evaluate the reduction and calcaneal alignment. The American Orthopedic Foot Ankle (AOFAS) Ankle-Hind Foot Scale and Foot Function Index-Verbal Rating Scales (FFI-5pt) were adopted to assess the therapeutic effects. The postoperative complications of the two groups were compared.Results:All patients were followed up for 20-36 months (mean 24 months). The length of hospital stay and incision in group A was shorter than that in group B ( t=-11.276, -25.965, P<0.001). In group A and group B, the correction degrees of B?hler angle and Gissane angle were (34.49±3.81)°, (35.12±3.77)° and (-20.62±9.86)°, (-20.94±8.38)°, respectively ( P>0.05). Posterior calcaneal articular surface defects or steps in group A and group B were 1.55(1.12, 2.00)mm and 1.20(1.03, 1.60)mm, indicating that there was no significant difference in the reconstruction ability between the two groups ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in VAS pain score between the two groups at 3 months after operation ( P>0.05), but group A was significantly lower than group B at 3 days after operation ( P<0.001). There was no significant difference in AOFAS and FFI-5pt scores between the two groups at 18 months after operation ( P>0.05). The complications of group A (6.0% incision infection, 2.0% incision area sensory disturbance, 2.0% foot stiffness) were lower than those of group B (16.36% incision infection, 14.55% incision area sensory disturbance, 10.9% foot stiffness) ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with ORIF-LA, the MIPPO shows promising results in terms of reduction capacity and safety. Use of the MIPPO technique minimized the risk of postoperative wound complications and achieved superior functional outcomes compared with standard locking plate fixation via the extended lateral approach. MIPPO can be used as a choice for the treatment of calcaneal fracture.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of achilles tendon rupture in male patients and to verify them.Methods:Retrospective analysis was made on the medical records of male inpatients with achilles tendon rupture (242 cases in achilles tendon rupture group) and simple ankle joint injury (825 cases in control group) admitted to Qilu Hospital of Shandong University from May 2013 to June 2020. The tendency score matching method was used to balance the confounding factors at a ratio of 1∶1. After matching, 147 cases were in achilles tendon rupture group and 147 cases in control group. The baseline data and related indicators were compared before and after matching, and the risk factors of achilles tendon rupture were analyzed by constructing a multivariate logistic regression model.Results:The age, smoking rate, drinking rate, family history of hypertension and diabetes, previous history of hypertension, diabetes and coronary heart disease, and BMI of the achilles tendon rupture group before matching were significantly lower than those of the control group (all P<0.05). After matching, there was no significant difference in age, smoking proportion, drinking proportion, family history of hypertension, diabetes and coronary heart disease, previous history of hypertension, diabetes and coronary heart disease, and BMI between the two groups (all P>0.05). After matching, the levels of fasting uric acid (UA), cholesterol (TG) and triglyceride (TC) in achilles tendon rupture group were significantly higher than those in control group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Multivariate binary logistic regression analysis showed UA ( OR=1.006, 95% CI: 1.003-1.010, P<0.001), TC ( OR=2.462, 95% CI: 1.194-5.076, P=0.015) was an independent risk factor for achilles tendon rupture in male. Conclusions:Dyslipidemia and UA may be an independent risk factor for achilles tendon rupture in male.
