OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of perioperative administration of rhubarb on the acute inflammatory response in patients with gastric cancer. METHODS: In this prospective, single-blinded, controlled clinical trial, thirty-one patients with gastric cancer operatively treated were randomly divided into two groups, with 14 patients in control group and 17 in study group. Patients in both groups were given an isocaloric and isonitrogenous enteral diet. The enteral diet was started 36 hours after operation, and continued for 6 days. Patients in the study group were fed with rhubarb before operation, and at 1 day and 2 days after operation. Indexes of acute inflammatory response such as serum C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), and indexes of nutritional status such as serum albumin (ALB), prealbumin (PA) and transferrin (TRF) were measured before operation, and at 1 day, 3 and 7 days after operation. RESULTS: Patients in both groups had acute inflammatory response, and the indexes of nutritional status decreased after operation.IL-6, CRP and TNF-alpha tested at 3 and 7 days after operation were lower in the study group as compared with those in the control group, and the recovery time of gastrointestinal motility such as borborygmus, gas elimination and defecation was shorter in the study group as compared with that in the control group. The indexes of nutritional status showed no significant differences between two groups after operation. CONCLUSION: Rhubarb can positively modulate the acute inflammatory response, promote the recovery of postoperative gastrointestinal motility, and benefit enteral nutrition support in patients who have undergone major operations for gastric cancer.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of perioperative application of Sijunzi Decoction and enteral nutrition on T-cell subsets and nutritional status in patients with gastric cancer after operation. METHODS: In this prospective, single-blinded, controlled clinical trial, fifty-nine patients with gastric cancer were randomly divided into three groups: control group (n=20) and two study groups (group A, n=21; group B, n=18). Sjunzi Decoction (100 ml) was administered via nasogastric tube to the patients in the study group B from the second postoperation day to the 9th postoperation day. Patients in the two study groups were given an isocaloric and isonitrogonous enteral diet, which was started on the second day after operation, and continued for eight days. Patients in the control group were given an isocaloric and isonitrogonous parenteral diet for 9 days. All variables of nutritional status such as serum albumin (ALB), prealbumin (PA), transferrin (TRF) and T-cell subsets were measured one day before operation, and one day and 10 days after operation. RESULTS: All the nutritional variables and the levels of CD3(+), CD4(+), CD4(+)/CD8(+) were decreased significantly after operation. Ten days after operation, T-cell subsets and nutritional variables in the two study groups were increased as compare with the control group. The levels of ALB, TRF and T-cell subsets in the study group B were increased significantly as compared with the study group A (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Enteral nutrition assisted with Sijunzi Decoction can positively improve and optimize cellular immune function and nutritional status in the patients with gastric cancer after operation.

Objective To investigate the impact of paced QRS duration (pQRSd) on heart function in patients with right ventricular apical pacing. Methods Seventy-six patients with Ⅲ° atrioventricular block received pacemaker treatment were enrolled and randomized into group A (pQRSd < 190 ms, n = 52) and group B(pQRSd≥ 190 ms, n = 24). The concentration of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP),parameters of left atrial diameter (LAD), left ventricular ejection fracetion (LVEF), left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD), left ventricular end systolic dimension (LVEDD) were measured before operation, at 12 months and 24 months after implanting, respectively. The parameters of echocardiography assay, the concentration of BNP and the incidence of heart failure event after implantation were compared between two groups. Results At 12 months after implanting, LVEF of the patients in the group B decreased significantly compared with that of group A (P < 0.05). However, the echocardiography paramenters and the concentration of BNP were not significantly different between the two groups (P > 0.05). At 24 months after implanting, LAD、LVEDD、LVESD of group B increased significantly compared with those of group A [LAD,( 44.5 ± 6.2) mm vs (41.6 ± 5.1) mm, LVEDD, (52.7 ± 9.3) mm vs (48.2 ± 7.5) mm, LVESD, (37.5 ± 5.6) mm vs (33.8 ± 4.9)mm, each P < 0.05, respectively]. The concentration of BNP of group B increased significantly [(408.2 ± 102.1)ng / L vs (243.7 ± 92.8)ng / L, P < 0.001], and LVEF of the patients in group B decreased significantly compared with those of group A [(46.3 ± 6.8)% vs (51.6 ± 5.2)%, P < 0.001], respectively. No significant difference in the incidence of heart failure event (41.7% vs 26.9%, P > 0.05)between two groups during 24-month follow-up. Conclusion The prolonged paced QRS duration has a detrimental effect on long-term cardiac function during RVA pacing in patients with Ⅲ°atrioventricular block.

Anterior cruciate ligament(ACL)injury is caused by strong violence,which can destabilize the knee joint,cause joint cartilage degeneration,meniscus injury,and in severe cases,develop osteoarthropathy.The gold standard for the treatment of ACLR injuries at this stage is arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament recon-struction(ACLR).In clinical practice,the LARS(Ligament advanced reinforcement system)artificial ligament made of polyethylene terephthalate(PET)as the material has a good effect in the short and medium term,but the long-term biological healing between the graft and the host bone is poor,and the real"ligamentization"requirement of the postoperative graft cannot be met.Coating-modified modification of artificial ligaments can improve their hydrophilicity and biocompatibility,which in turn can promote the healing of graft-bone tunnels.Tendon bone healing is a bone-derived progressive process from indirect insertion to direct insertion,which takes a relatively long time and is closely related to the prognosis and early rehabilitation effect of patients.This article reviews the progress of superficial modification of artificial ligaments to promote ACLR tendon bone healing.

Objective:To investigate the influence of computer tomography (CT) examination bony parameters and surgical methods on difficult pelvis and perioperative efficacy of mid-low rectal cancer.Methods:The retrospective case-control study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 191 patients who underwent robotic or laparoscopic total mesorectal excision (TME) for mid-low rectal cancer in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from January 2021 to December 2022 were collected. There were 123 males and 68 females, aged (60±11)years. According to the surgical difficulty score, 191 patients were divided into the difficult pelvis group of 41 patients and the non-difficult pelvic group of 150 patients. Thirteen pelvic parameters were obtained on CT images of the 191 patients. Observation indicators: (1) comparison of intraoperative and postoperative conditions of patients in the difficult pelvis group and the non-difficult pelvis group; (2) analysis of factors affecting difficult pelvis in patients with mid-low rectal cancer; (3) stratified analysis of different surgical methods for patients with difficult pelvis. Measurement data with normal distribu-tion were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were expressed as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted using the Logistic regression model. Results:(1) Com-parison of intraoperative and postoperative conditions of patients in the difficult pelvis group and the non-difficult pelvis group. There were significant differences in operation time, volume of intra-operative blood loss, sum of the product of the longest diameters (SPD) of tumor lesions, postopera-tive complications, duration of postoperative hospital stay, and hospitalization expenses between the two groups ( t=-4.853, -5.816, Z=2.838, χ2=81.498, t=-5.897, -2.770, P<0.05). (2) Analysis of factors affecting difficult pelvis in patients with mid-low rectal cancer. Results of multivariate analysis showed that gender, age, pelvic inlet, distance between the sacral promontory and the coccyx, depth of the pelvis, line AB, angle A, and angle B were independent factors affecting difficult pelvis in patients with mid-low rectal cancer ( odds ratio=0.080, 1.067, 3.065, 0.004, 10 165.062, 0.019, 0.476, 0.662, 95% confidence interval as 0.016-0.409, 1.008-1.130, 1.388-6.767, 0.001-0.024, 477.574-216 361.071, 0.003-0.131, 0.358-0.632, 0.551-0.794, P<0.05). (3) Stratified analysis of different surgical methods for patients with difficult pelvis. ① Comparison of general preoperative data of patients with difficult pelvis receiving different surgical methods. Of the 41 mid-low rectal cancer patients with difficult pelvis, 15 underwent robotic TME, and 26 underwent laparoscopic TME. There was a significant difference in the body mass index between patients receiving the two surgical methods ( t=-2.055, P<0.05). ② Comparison of intraoperative and postoperative conditions of patients with difficult pelvis receiving different surgical methods. There was no significant difference in operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, SPD of tumor lesions, number of lymph nodes dissected, number of lymph node metastases, distance between tumor and anal verge, combined organ resection, postoperative complications, duration of postoperative hospital stay, hospitalization costs, T staging, N staging, M staging, vascular tumor thrombus, and nerve invasion ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Gender, age, pelvic inlet, distance between the sacral promontory and the coccyx, pelvic depth, AB line, angle A, and angle B are independent factors affecting difficult pelvis in patients with mid-low rectal cancer. There is no difference in perioperative outcomes between mid-low rectal cancer patients of difficult pelvis who received robotic surgery and laparoscopic surgery.
