ObjectiveTo study the reliability and sensitivity of the gait analysis system based on digital video and image processing.Methods20 healthy subjects were assessed twice by the same doctor having one-week interval to investigate intraobserver reliability, they were also assessed twice separately by two doctors to investigate interobserver reliability. Gait parameters of affected limb of 20 hemiplegic patients were compared with 20 healthy subjects to investigate the sensitivity of this system.ResultsThere were high correlations in all the parameters between the two assessments. The parameters of the patients were significantly different from those of the controls.ConclusionThe system is sufficiently repeatable and sensitive in the assessment of gait.

Objective To investigate the value of intervention bundles in enteral nutrition for patients with esophageal cancer.Methods From October 2014 to September 2015,226 patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma were collected.From April 2015 to September 2015,109 patients(intervention group)were treated with intervention bundles during perioperative period,and from October 2014 to March 2015,117 patients(control group)were treated by routine intervention.Results The albumin,prealbumin,and transferrin showed no significant difference(all P>0.05)before treatment but were significantly different on the eighth day[albumin:(38.2±3.5)g/L vs.(36.3±4.8)g/L,P=0.001;prealbumin:(126.7±52.8)g/L vs.(72.9±42.3)g/L,P=0.001;transferrin:(2.9±1.2)g/L vs.(2.1±1.6)g/L,P=0.001].The incidence of complications was 11.01％(12/109)in intervention group and 21.37％(25/117)in control group(X2=4.422,P=0.035).In addition,the postoperative exhaust time[(52.8±10.9)h vs.(58.7±14.3)h,P=0.001],time to the removal of chest drainage tube[(3.5±0.9)d vs.(4.8±1.3)d,P=0.001],postoperative hospital stay[(11.2±1.3)d vs.(12.1±1.5)d,P=0.001],and hospital costs[(37±4)thousand yuan vs.(39±5)thousand yuan,P=0.004] were also significantly shorter or smaller in the intervention group.Conclusions Intervention bundles is clinically valuable in the early enteral nutrition for patients with esophageal cancer.It can improve the nutritional status of patients,reduce complications,and improve the clinical outcomes.

To study the complete genomic sequence, genomic characteristics, and genetic variation of the bovine papillomavirus 2 genotype (BPV-2) Aks-01 strain at the molecular level, genotyping of this strain from the skin samples of cows in southern Xinjiang (China) was first detected by the polymerase chain reaction with FAP59/FAP64 primers. Based on the complete genome of the BPV-2 reference strain, specific primers and sequencing primers were designed, and the complete genome of the Aks-01 strain amplified and sequenced. Sequence analyses showed that genotyping of the Aks-01 strain belonged to BPV-2. The Aks-01 strain had the structural characteristics of BPV-2. The 7944-bp full-length genomic sequence of the Aks-01 strain was compiled using DNAStar™. The sequence of the Aks-01 strain had 98% similarity to the reference strain from GenBank. The Aks-01 strain was most closely related to BPV-1 and BPV-13. BPV-2, BPV-1 and BPV-13 were grouped within the genus Deltapapillomavirus. The Aks-01 strain is the first BPV-2 strain reported in southern Xinjiang.

Objective To compare the efficacy of neoadjuvant radiotherapy and adjuvant radiotherapy in the treatment of patients who underwent radical esophagectomy for T3 N0 stage. Methods Totally 555 cases of T3 N0 , who underwent t neoadjuvant radiotherapy or adjuvant radiotherapy from 2004 to 2014, were selected from the SEER cancer registry in this study. 486 cases received neoadjuvant radiotherapy ( neoadjuvant radiotherapy group ) and 69 cases received adjuvant radiotherapy ( adjuvant radiotherapy group). Kaplan-Meier (KM) survival and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to analyze the overall survival ( OS) and cancer specify survival ( CSS) of the two groups. A propensity score model was utilized to balance the baseline covariates. Results The CSS in the neoadjuvant radiotherapy group was significantly better than that in the adjuvant radiotherapy group (χ2 = 6. 030, P<0. 05 ) . Multivariate COX regression analysis showed that age, gender, and radiotherapy sequence with surgery were important factors influencing the prognosis of esophageal cancer with T3N0 stage ( Wald=10. 099, 10. 562, 4. 331, P<0. 05) . Compared with the neoadjuvant radiotherapy group, the adjuvant radiotherapy group had a worse CSS ( hazard ratio:1. 649, 95％CI 1. 173-2. 316, P=0. 004) and OS ( hazard ratio:1. 402, 95％CI 1. 020-1. 928, P=0. 037) . According to K-M survival analysis, the adjuvant radiotherapy group showed the worse CSS ( hazard ratio: 1. 813, 95％CI 1. 072-3. 069, P=0. 027) and OS ( hazard ratio: 1. 424, 95％ CI 0. 896-2. 262, P=0. 134) than the neoadjuvant radiotherapy in esophageal cancer with T3N0 stage, which was similar to the matched cohort. Conclusions Compared with postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy, neoadjuvant radiotherapy significantly improves the CSS and OS of T3 N0 patients with esophageal cancer.

Objective To investigate the application of bundles of intervention in the treatment of postoperative delirium in esophageal cancer.Methods Thirty-six cases of delirium associated with esophageal cancer(study group)after the application of bundles of intervention in the Affiliated Huaian No.1 People's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from November 2015 to August 2016 were analyzed,and 41 cases of postoperative delirium(control group)from January 2015 to October 2015 were treated by routine treatment.Results The mean duration of postoperative delirium was(3.6±0.8)d in the study group and(4.7± 1.2)d in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(t =4.783,P<0.01).The incidence rates of other complications in the study group and control group were 19.4％(7/36)and 34.1％(14/41),respectively,and there was no significant difference(χ2=2.089,P=0.148).The incidence rates of accidental events in the study group and control group were 13.9％(5/36)and 31.7％(13/41),respectively,and the difference was statistically significant(χ2= 4232,P= 0.040).There was no significant difference in the postoperative exhaust time and removal of chest tube drainage time between the two groups(both P＞ 0.05),but there was a significant difference in postoperative hospital stay and hospital costs between the two groups(t values were 4.726 and 2.065,both P<0.05).Conclusions In the treatment of postoperative delirium in esophageal cancer,applying the bundles of intervention concept is feasible and effective.It can significantly reduce postoperative delirium duration and accelerate the rehabilitation of patients.

One hundred and eighty three patients with esophageal cancer admitted from September 2015 to September 2016 were randomly divided into two groups:91 patients received clinician-involving pre-discharge and postoperative follow-up health education (study group) and 92 patients received traditional health education (control group).The quality of life and the compliance rate of comprehensive treatment within 3 months after discharge were evaluated and compared between two groups.The overall scores of quality of life in study group was significantly better than those of the control group (P＜ 0.05),and the compliance rate of comprehensive treatment after discharge in study group was significantly higher than that of control group [82.4％(75/91) vs.67.4％(62/92),x2=5.49,P=0.02].It is suggested that clinician participating in the pre-discharge and follow-up health education can improve the quality of life of patients,and improve the compliance of comprehensive treatment after discharge.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the application of bundles of intervention in the treatment of esophageal carcinoma anastomotic leak.

METHODSFrom January 2014 to May 2015, 44 cases of esophageal carcinoma anastomotic fistula were treated by bundles of intervention (through the collection of a series of evidence-based treatment and care measures for the treatment of diseases) in Department of Thoracic Surgery, Huai'an First Hospital, Nanjing Medical University (bundles of intervention group), and 68 patients with esophageal carcinoma postoperative anastomotic leak from December 2013 to January 2012 receiving traditional therapy were selected as the control group. The clinical and nutritional indexes of both groups were compared.

RESULTSThere were no significant differences in general data and proportion of anastomotic leak between the two groups. Eleven patients died during hospital stay, including 3 cases in bundles of intervention group(6.8%) and 8 cases in control group (11.8%) without significant difference(P = 0.390). In bundles of intervention group, 1 case died of type III( intrathoracic anastomotic leak, 2 died of type IIII( intrathoracic anastomotic leak. In control group, 2 cases died of type III( cervical anastomotic leak, 2 died of type III( intrathoracic anastomotic leak and 4 of type IIII( intrathoracic anastomotic leak. The mortality of bundles of intervention group was lower than that of control group. The duration of moderate fever [(4.1±2.4) days vs. (8.3±4.4) days, t=6.171, P=0.001], the time of antibiotic use [(8.2±3.8) days vs.(12.8±5.2) days, t=5.134, P = 0.001], the healing time [(21.5±12.7) days vs.(32.2±15.8) days, t=3.610, P=0.001] were shorter, and the average hospitalization expenses[(63±12) thousand yuan vs. (74±19) thansand yuan, t=3.564, P=0.001] was lower in bundles of intervention group than those in control group. Forty-eight hours after occurrence of anastomotic leak, the levels of hemoglobin, albumin and prealbumin were similar in both groups. However, at the time of fistula healing, the levels of hemoglobin [(110.6±10.5) g/L vs.(103.8±11.1) g/L, t=3.090, P=0.002], albumin [(39.2±5.2) g/L vs.(36.3±5.9) g/L, t=2.543, P=0.013] and prealbumin [(129.3±61.9) g/L vs.(94.1±66.4) g/L, t=2.688, P=0.008] were significantly higher in bundles of intervention group.

CONCLUSIONIn the treatment of postoperative esophageal carcinoma anastomotic leak, application of bundles of intervention concept can significantly improve the nutritional status and improve the clinical outcomes.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVEThe new edition of the TNM staging for lung and pleural tumours has been finished, which put weight on the extent of primary tumor as one of the important prognosises. But little study has performed on the primary tumor extent < or = 2 cm. The aim of this study is to explore the prognosis of patients with tumor extent < or = 2 cm in stage I of non-small cell lung cancer, which helps us to choose the best treatment for these patients.

METHODSRetrospective study on the clinical response and survival time of whom underwent complete surgical resection and diagnosed as T1a of stage I NSCLC from 1998 to 2004 was analyzed. Data was analyzed by SPSS 17.0 software.

RESULTSOverall survival rate was 80.8%. By the study, age (P = 0.241), gender (P = 0.175), history of smoking (P = 0.845), pathologic type ( P =0.265), and systematic mediastinal lymphadenectomy (SML )(P = 0.918) or not, postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy or not ( P = 0.616) and visceral pleural invasion (P = 0.827) were not the prognosises of these patients. Only the tumor differentiation such as poorly differentiated was the important prognosis ( P = 0.01).

CONCLUSIONIn the tumor extent < or = 2 cm of stage I non-small cell lung cancer, the visceral pleural invasion maybe not influence the patients survival. The tumor differentiation is one of the important prognostic factors.
