Objective To evaluate the safety,tumor radical and early postoperative efficacy through comparison of laparoscopic gastric D2 radical surgery with traditional open gastric D2 radical surgery.Methods 254 patients with upper stomach cancer underwent surgery were selected,132 cases using conventional open gastrectomy (the traditional laparotomy group),122 patients underwent laparoscopic radical gastrectomy (laparoscopic surgery group).Laparoscopic surgery group with traditional open surgery group had no statistically significant differences in gender,age,tumor location,histological type and TNM staging.Results Open surgery group and laparoscopic surgery group had statistically significant differences in operative time [(235.78±31.56) min,(256.43±54.08) min,P ＜ 0.001],blood loss [(326.69±89.73) ml,(158.31±62.98) ml,P ＜ 0.001],incision length [(16.53±2.34) cm,(5.51±1.15) cm,P ＜ 0.001],gastrointestinal recovery time [(4.22±0.91) d,(3.31±0.83) d,P ＜ 0.001],first time eating liquid [(5.78±0.95) d,(5.56±0.78) d,P ＜ 0.001] and postoperative hospital stay [(12.62±2.89) d,(11.18±1.78) d,P ＜ 0.001].The total number of lymph node dissection and complications was not statistically significant.Conclusions Laparoscopic gastric D2 radical surgery is a safe,minimally invasive surgical method.Laparoscopic gastric D2 radical surgery has the same lymph node dissection and good early outcome compared with the traditional gastric D2 radical surgery,but postoperative recovery fast and less invasive.

Objective To explore the effect of intracerebroventricular injection of AR-M1896, a galanin receptor 2 agonist, on depres-sion-like behavior in rat chronic mild stress (CMS) model. Methods 48 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned into control group, CMS group, CMS artificial cerebrospinal fluid (aCSF) group and CMS AR-M1896 group equally. The control group received no interven-tion, and the other groups were established chronic mild stress model. After six-week of stress, forced swim test and sucrose preference test were conducted to identify the CMS rats. AR-M1896 or aCSF was injected into the lateral ventricle of CMS AR-M1896 group and CMS aC-SF group, respectively. The immobility time and climbing time in the forced swim test were analysed, and the sucrose consumption percent-age in the sucrose preference test was measured. Results The immobility time decreased (F=11.998, P<0.01), climbing time increased (F=8.268, P<0.05), and the sucrose consumption percentage increased (F=10.352, P<0.01) in CMS AR-M1896 group, compared with CMS aC-SF group. Conclusion Intracerebroventricular administration of galanin receptor 2 agonist AR-M1896 is effective on depression in CMS model rats.

Objective To explore the curative effect of deep-brain magnetic stimulation (DMS) on learned helplessness behavior in the chronic restrained stress (CRS) rat model. Methods Twenty-nine Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into control group (n=8) and CRS group (n=21). CRS group was exerted chronic restrained stress, while the control group did not receive any stress, for three weeks. Then learned helplessness behavior was tested using Forced Swimming Test (FST) and the hopeless rats of the CRS group were divided ran-domly into sham group (n=6), DMS group (n=8) and citalopram group (n=7), that received corresponding treatment respectively. They were evaluated with FST again after one-week treatment. Results The immobile time in FST was longer in CRS group than in the control group after three-week stress (F=11.260, P=0.002). After one-week treatment, no significant improvement was found in the citalopram group (F=1.565, P=0.235), however, the immobile time in DMS group decreased (F=6.277, P=0.025), and was shorter than that in the sham group (F=5.560, P=0.036). Conclusion CRS could result in learned helplessness behavior, which could be alleviated with one-week DMS.

OBJECTIVEThe aim of this study was to establish patient-derived lung cancer xenograft models in nude mice by subcutaneous and subrenal capsule transplantation, and to analyze the differences in biological characteristics of the xenografts.

METHODSSurgically resected lung cancer specimens from 11 patients were implanted subcutaneously and under the renal capsule in nude mice. The tumor growth and histopathological features were observed and human origin of the blood vessels in the first-generation xenograft tumors was evaluated by SP immunohistochemistry using anti-human CD31 antibody.

RESULTSThe patient-derived lung cancer tissues were successfully implanted subcutaneously and under the renal capsule in 11 nude mice. The operation time of subcutaneous implantation was 13 min, and the tumor formation rate was 36.4% (4/11). The operation time of implantation under the renal capsule was 45 min, and the tumor formation rate was 45.5% (5/11). Histopathological examination of the xenografts using HE staining showed the same morphology of the human lung cancers, and immunohistochemical observation with CD31staining showed that 83.3% (5/6) blood vessels in the xenograft tumors was of human origin.

CONCLUSIONSBoth methods of subcutaneous and subrenal capsule transplantation can be used to successfully establish patient-derived lung cancer xenograft models in nude mice. The subcutaneous implantation is simple to operate, less time-comsuming, and easy to observe the tumor growth, but with a lower success rate of tumor formation. Transplantation under the renal capsule has a higher tumor formation rate, but is more difficult to operate, taking more time, and difficult to observe the growth of the tumor. The xenograft tumors formed by both methods in the first generation display biological characteristics of human lung cancer, the xenograft tumor models are close to human lung cancer, and therefore may provide a stable, reliable, and useful animal model in human lung cancer research.

Objective To discuss the safety and the application of the self-designed multifunctional inflatable pelvis and hip-joint fixator (MIPHF) in damage control in pelvic fracture patients.Methods The MIPHF was subjected to pressure test and quality inspection.From September 2016 to June 2017,61 pelvic-fracture patients were treated with our self-designed MIPHF as pre-hospital first-aid care according to the concept of damage control orthopedics (DCO) (MIPHF group).The control group consisted of 69 pelvic-fracture patients who had not received pre-hospital first-aid care with the self-designed MIPHF from December 2015 to August 2016.There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in gender,age,types of pelvic fracture,and preoperative injure severity score (ISS).The study compared the two groups for the case fatality rate,volume of blood transfused during surgeries,early complication rates,fracture reduction (Matta standards),and long-term efficacy (Cole scores).Results The pressure test showed that the MIPHF had a good fixation effect on the pelvis.And the quality inspection showed that the material used for the MIPHF was in line with national standards and the safety was guaranteed.The MIPHF group had 1 death (1.6％) and the control group had 8 deaths (11.6％),which was a significant difference (x2=4.979,P=0.026).All survival patients in both groups were followed up.The MIPHF group (61 cases) received 3.0 to 18.0 months follow-up,with an average of 9.0 months.And the control group (69 cases) had 18.0 to 30.0 months follow-up,with an average of 21.9 months.In the MIPHF group,23 cases were treated conservatively,and 37 cases were treated with surgery.Among them,3 cases were fixed with external fixator,20 cases with anterior open reduction and internal fixation,9 cases with posterior open reduction and internal fixation,and 5 cases with combined anterior and posterior fixation.The timing of surgery was 1 to 20 days after injury,with an average of 4.1 days.The volume of blood transfused in the MIPHF group during surgery was 200 to 1500 ml,with an average of 628.6 ml.In the control group,27 patients were treated conservatively,and 42 patients were treated with surgery.Among them,2 cases were fixed with external fixator,24 cases with anterior open reduction and internal fixation,10 cases with posterior open reduction and internal fixation,and 6 cases with combined anterior and posterior fixation.The timing of surgery was 1 to 15 days after injury,with an average of 3.l days.The volume of blood transfused in the control group during surgery was 200 to 4000 ml,with an average of 1 707.1 ml.There was a significant difference between the two groups in intraoperative blood transfusion(Z=-2.330,P=0.020).The MIPHF group had 10 (16.4％) cases of early serious complications and the control group had 22 (31.9％) cases,which had a significant difference (x2=4.187,P=0.041).According to the criteria proposed by Matta et al.,the good rate of results for treating fractures was 82.0％ in the MIPHF group and 60.9％ in the control group,which got a significant difference (x2=6.967,P=0.008).The MIPHF group and the control group also differed significantly in their mean long-term Cole scores (27.2±4.0 versus 25.1 ±5.6,t=2.457,P=0.015).Conclusion MIPHF,which reflects the DCO concept,may be recommended as pre-hospital first-aid care for patients with pelvic fracture because it can lessen bleeding and prevent secondary pelvic injury,thus reduce case fatality rate and the incidence of complications.It can also improve the success rate of treating pelvic fracture,which will positively affect long-term outcomes.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of different combinations of acupuncture and robot training on balance function in patients with Parkinson's disease.Methods A total of 60 patients with Parkinson's disease admitted to Wenzhou Traditional Medicine Hospital from October 2020 to October 2022 were randomly divided into two groups.Group A was given robot training after receiving acupuncture of Baihui and Dazhui points.Group B received those treatments simultaneously.And the balance function of patients was evaluated by Berg balance scale(BBS),Morse fall assessment scale(MFS)and timed up and go test(TUGT).Results In the intra-group comparison,TUGT in group A was significantly improved after 4 weeks of treatment(P<0.01);MFS and TUGT in group B were significantly improved compared with those before treatment(P<0.01).After 8 weeks of treatment,BBS and TUGT in group A were significantly improved compared with those before treatment(P<0.01);BBS,MFS and TUGT in group B were significantly improved compared with those before treatment(P<0.01).At the 12th week,BBS,MFS and TUGT in both groups were significantly improved compared with those before treatment(P<0.01).Comparison between groups:BBS,MFS and TUGT in group B were not significantly different from those in group A at 4 weeks of treatment(P>0.05);After 8 weeks of treatment,MFS in group B was significantly improved compared with that in group A(P<0.05),BBS and TUGT were better than that in group A without significant difference(P>0.05).After 12 weeks of treatment,BBS(P<0.01),MFS(P<0.01)and TUGT(P<0.05)in group B were significantly improved compared with group A.Conclusion Acupuncture at Baihui and Dazhui points combined with robot training simultaneously can improve the balance function and anti-falling ability of Parkinson's disease.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) versus functional electrical stimulation (FES) in the treatment of post-stroke complex regional pain syndrome. Methods:The randomized controlled study included 60 patients with post-stroke complex regional pain syndrome who received treatment at the Wenzhou TCM Hospital of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University from July 2021 to February 2023. These patients were divided into an rTMS group ( n = 30) and an FES group ( n = 30) using a random number table method. Patients in the rTMS group were treated with rTMS, while those in the FES group were treated with FES. All treatments were performed once daily for 8 consecutive weeks. The clinical efficacy, total active movement score of the fingers, Fugl-Meyer assessment scale score, Activity of Daily Living score, modified Barthel Index score, shoulder joint range of motion, and safety were compared between the two groups. Results:The total response rate in the FES group was 86.7% (26/30), which was significantly higher than 83.3% (25/30) in the rTMS group ( Z = 0.09, P = 0.93). After treatment, there were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of total active movement score of the fingers and Fugl-Meyer assessment scale score ( P = 0.244, 0.262). No significant differences were found between the two groups in MBI score and ADL score (both P > 0.05). There was also no significant difference in shoulder joint range of motion between the two groups ( P > 0.05). Conclusion:Both rTMS and FES are highly effective for post-stroke complex regional pain syndrome. They can improve upper limb function, enhance daily living abilities, and remodel neurological functions of the brain.

OBJECTIVETo understood the accuracy of oral fluid-based rapid HIV self-testing among men who have sex with men (MSM) and related factors.

METHODSSurvey was conducted among MSM selected through non-probability sampling to evaluate the quality of their rapid HIV self-testing, and related information was analyzed.

RESULTSThe most MSM were aged 21-30 years (57.0%). Among them, 45.7% had educational level of college or above, 78.5% were unmarried, 59.3% were casual laborers. The overall accuracy rate of oral fluid based self-testing was 95.0%, the handling of"inserting test paper into tube as indicated by arrow on it"had the highest accuracy rate (98.0%), and the handling of"gently upsetting tube for 3 times"had lowest accuracy rate (65.0%); Chi-square analysis showed that educational level, no touch with middle part of test paper, whether reading the instruction carefully, whether understanding the instruction and inserting test paper into tube as indicated by the arrow on it were associated with the accuracy of oral fluid-based rapid HIV self-testing, (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that educational level, no touch with middle part of test paper and understanding instructions were associated with the accuracy of oral fluid-based rapid HIV self-testing.

CONCLUSIONSThe accuracy of oral fluid-based rapid HIV self-testing was high among MSM, the accuracy varied with the educational level of the MSM. Touch with the middle part of test paper or not and understanding the instructions or not might influence the accuracy of the self-testing.
