Objective:To monitor the dynamic changes in coagulation function and assess their clinical significance in patients with gas-tric cancer by using thromboelas to gram (TEG). Methods:A total of 178 patients with gastric cancer from March 2014 to May 2015 in Xinxiang Central Hospital were selected as the experimental group. The patients were grouped based on different tumor stages, inva-sion depths, and lymph node metastasis. The TEG results of all patients were dynamically monitored before and after operation, and 60 healthy persons were selected as normal control group. Blood coagulation change was analyzed by comparing the TEG test results. Results:Compared with those of the control group, the TEG parameters of the experimental group showed significantly decreased R and K values, as well as significantly increased Angle, CI, and MA values, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). In the experimental group, the K values were significantly decreased after operation, whereas Angle, MA, and CI were significantly in-creased (P<0.05). No significant changes were observed in R, LY30, and others. TEG values were significantly different in the compari-son of values for tumor patients with different stages, different tumor infiltration degrees, and with or without lymphatic metastasis. Conclusion:Blood hypercoagulability in the perioperative period was observed in patients with gastric cancer and was positively corre-lated with tumor stages, tumor infiltration degrees, and lymphatic metastasis. Dynamic monitoring of gastric cancer perioperative TEG can provide valuable information for clinical treatment, improve the safety of gastric cancer surgery, and reduce postoperative compli-cations associated with active clinical significance.

In recent years, the clinical experts consensuses or guidelines of ankylosing spondylitis (AS)/spondyloarthritis (SpA) have been constantly updated, but to better understand and practice, patient self-participation management is one of the key points to improve the level of diagnosis and treatment. Through questionnaire survey of these patients, we screened out the most concerned issues, and established the AS/SpA patient practice guideline working group with multidisciplinary physicians and patients. Fifteen opinions, as the AS/SpA patient practice guidelines, are proposed in accordance with the relevant principles of the "WHO guidelines development manual" , and with the international normative process.
