MicroRNAs as a novel class of endogenous gene regulators at post-transcription level have been found to play important roles in many biological processes including cellular differentiation, proliferation, apoptosis and regulation of development. The biological mechanisms of microRNAs involved in the pathogenesis of various diseases have been revealed gradually. This paper reviews the Current situation and progress on the microRNAs and their roles in vascular diseases.

Objective To systematically evaluate the safety and feasibility of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in perioperative management of pancreatectomy.Methods Literatures were researched using CNKI,Wanfang database,VIP database,PubMed,Cochrane Library,Embase from January 1990 to March 2018 with the key words including "快速康复外科,加速康复外科,胰腺切除术,胰十二指肠切除术,惠普而术,ERAS,enhanced recovery,fast track,pancreatic surgery,pancreatectomy,Whipple,pancreatoduodenectomy,pancreatoduodenal resection".The cohort study about ERAS in elective pancreatic surgery or pancreaticoduodenectomy were received and enrolled.The patients using ERAS in perioperative management and using traditional perioperative management were respectively allocated into the ERAS group and control group.Two reviewers independently screened literatures,extracted data and assessed the risk of bias.Count data were described as odds ratio (OR) and 95％ confidence interval (CI).Weighted Mean Difference (WMD) was used as a consolidated statistics for measurement data that were measured using the same tool,and standardized mean difference (SMD) was used as a consolidated statistics for measurement data that were measured using the different tools.The heterogeneity of the studied was analyzed using the I2 test.Results Nineteen retrospective cohort studies were enrolled in the Meta analysis,and total sample size was 3 699 patients,including 1 823 in the ERAS group and 1 876 in the control group.The results of Meta analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in the time of postoperative nasogastric tube removal,time for postoperative solid diet intake,time of postoperative defecation recovery,incidence of postoperative overall complications,incidence of postoperative delayed gastric emptying,incidence of postoperative intra-abdominal infection,duration of postoperative hospital stay and hospital expenses between ERAS group and control group (WMD=-1.70,-3.61,-0.86,OR =0.65,0.60,0.70,WMD=-4.64,SMD=-0.48,95％CI:-2.97--0.42,-4.70--2.53,-1.01--0.71,0.52-0.81,0.45-0.80,0.54-0.91,-5.91--3.38,-0.77--0.18,P ＜ 0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the operation time,volume of intraoperative blood loss,incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula,incidence of postoperative wound infection,readmission rate,reoperation rate and mortality between ERAS group and control group (WMD=-9.73,-14.39,OR=0.85,0.72,1.05,0.81,0.74,95％CI:-34.24-14.78,-116.96-88.17,0.72-1.01,0.46-1.14,0.83-1.32,0.58-1.13,0.53-1.02,P＞0.05).The results of subgroup analysis showed that heterogeneity of data was from eastern and western countries.Conclusion ERAS in the perioperative management of pancreatectomy is safe and feasible,it can also promote postoperative recovery of patients and reduce incidence of complications and financial burden.

Objective To explore the predictive value of glucose metabolism and lipid metabolism indexes for in-stent restenosis(ISR)in patients with arteriosclerosis obliterans(ASO)of lower limbs after surgery.Methods A total of 160 patients with ASO of lower limbs admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University and Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital,Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from January 2018 to October 2021 were selected as the research subjects.All patients were treated with percutaneous transluminal angioplasty combined with stent implantation and were followed up for 1 year.Patients were divided into the ISR group(n=59)and the non-ISR group(n=101),according to the incidence of ISR during the follow-up period.General clinical data of patients in the two groups were collected.Univariate analysis was performed to preliminarily screen out the influencing factors for ISR,and the selected indexes were further analyzed by multivariate logistic regression to analyze the influencing factors for the occurrence of ISR in patients with ASO of lower limbs after surgery.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the value of the glucose metabolism and lipid metabolism indexes one day before discharge alone and their combination in predicting the occurrence of ISR in patients with ASO of lower limbs after surgery.The net benefit rate of predicting the occurrence of ISR in patients with ASO of lower limbs by the levels of glucose metabolism and lipid metabolism indexes one day before discharge alone and their combination was analyzed through the decision curve.Results Among the 160 patients,59 developed ISR,with an incidence rate of 36.88％.There was no significant difference in age,gender,alcohol consumption,complications,affected side,Fontaine stage,fasting plasma glucose,and serum triglycerides of patients between the ISR group and the non-ISR group(P＞0.05);the proportion of smokers and the levels of glycosylated hemoglobin A1c(HbA1c)in peripheral blood and low-density lipoprotein(LDL)in serum of patients in the ISR group were significantly higher than those in the non-ISR group,while the level of high-density lipoprotein(HDL)in serum was significantly lower than that in the non-ISR group(P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the elevated levels of HbA1 c in peripheral blood and LDL in serum were risk factors for ISR in patients with ASO of lower limbs after surgery(odds ratio＞1.00,P＜0.05),and the increased level of HDL in serum was the protective factor for ISR in patients with ASO of limbs after surgery(odds ratio＜1.00,P＜0.05).The ROC curve showed that the area under the curve of peripheral blood HbA1c,serum LDL and HDL levels alone and their combination in predicting the occurrence of ISR in patients with ASO of lower limbs after surgery was 0.717,0.761,0.654,and 0.824,respectively;the specificity was 0.861,0.792,0.851,and 0.663,respectively;and the sensitivity was 0.525,0.678,0.424,and 0.864,respectively.The decision curve showed that the net benefit rate for the combination of peripheral blood HbA1c,serum LDL and HDL levels one day before discharge in predicting the occurrence of ISR in patients with ASO of lower limbs after surgery was higher than that of prediction by the said indexes alone.Conclusion Glucose metabolism index peripheral blood HbA1c and lipid metabolism indexes serum LDL and HDL have certain predictive values for the occurrence of ISR in patients with ASO of lower limbs after surgery,and the net benefit rate of the joint prediction of the three indexes is higher.

ObjectiveTo investigate the differences in the risk factors for postoperative pancreatic fistula （POPF） after pancreaticoduodenectomy （PD） between the 2005 and 2016 editions of the definition and classification standards for pancreatic fistula， and to establish a risk prediction model for pancreatic fistula based on the 2016 edition. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 303 patients who were admitted to Tianjin Third Central Hospital and underwent PD from January 2016 to May 2022， and the patients with POPF were identified based on the new and old editions. The independent-samples t test or the non-parametric Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of continuous data between groups， and the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups. The univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to investigate the differences in the risk factors for pancreatic fistula after PD between the two editions； a risk prediction model was established for POPF based on the 2016 edition， and the receiver operating characteristic curve was used to invesitgate the accuracy of this model in predicting POPF and perform model validation. ResultsAccording to the 2005 edition， the univariate analysis showed that the diameter of the main pancreatic duct （χ²=31.641， P<0.001）， main pancreatic duct index （χ²=52.777， P<0.001）， portal vein invasion （χ²=6.259， P=0.012）， intra-abdominal fat thickness （χ²=7.665， P=0.006）， preoperative biliary drainage （χ²=5.999， P=0.014）， pancreatic cancer （χ²=5.544， P=0.019）， marginal pancreatic thickness （t=2.055， P=0.032）， pancreatic CT value （t=-3.224， P=0.002）， and preoperative blood amylase level （Z=-2.099， P=0.036） were closely associated with POPF， and the multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that main pancreatic duct index （odds ratio ［OR］=0.000， 95% confidence interval ［CI］： 0.000‍ ‍—‍ ‍0.011， P<0.05）， pancreatic cancer （OR=4.843， 95%CI： 1.285‍ ‍—‍ ‍18.254， P<0.05）， and pancreatic CT value （OR=0.869， 95%CI： 0.806‍ ‍—‍ ‍0.937， P<0.05） were independent risk factors； based on the 2016 edition， the univariate analysis showed the diameter of the main pancreatic duct （χ²=5.391， P=0.020）， main pancreatic duct index （χ²=11.394， P=0.001）， intra-abdominal fat thickness （χ²=8.899， P=0.003）， marginal pancreatic thickness （t=2.665， P=0.009）， pancreatic CT value （t=-2.835， P=0.004） were closely associated with POPF， and the multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that main pancreatic duct index （OR=0.001， 95%CI： 0.000‍ ‍—‍ ‍0.050， P<0.05） and pancreatic CT value （OR=0.943， 95%CI： 0.894‍ ‍—‍ ‍0.994， P<0.05） were independent risk factors. A risk prediction model was established for POPF after PD， and the ROC curve analysis showed that this model had an area under the ROC curve of 0.788 （95%CI： 0.707‍ ‍—‍ ‍0.870） in the modeling group and 0.804 （95%CI： 0.675‍ ‍—‍ ‍0.932） in the validation group. ConclusionMain pancreatic duct index and pancreatic CT value are closely associated with POPF after PD， and the risk prediction model for pancreatic fistula based on the 2016 edition has a good prediction accuracy.
