Objective:To investigate the influencing factors for microvascular invasion (MVI) in hepatocellular carcinoma based on three-dimensional visualization and the construction of its nomogram model.Methods:The retrospective cohort study method was conducted. The clinico-pathological data of 190 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who were admitted to Henan University People′s Hospital from May 2018 to May 2021 were collected. There were 148 males and 42 females, aged (58±12)years. The 190 patients were randomly divided into the training set of 133 cases and the validation set of 57 cases by the method of random number table in the ratio of 7:3. The abdominal three-dimensional visualization system was used to characterize the tumor morphology and other imaging features. Observation indicators: (1) analysis of influencing factors for MVI in hepatocellular carcinoma; (2) construction and evaluation of nomogram model of MVI in hepatocellular carcinoma. Measurement data with normal distribution were expressed as Mean± SD, and independent sample t test was used for comparison between groups. Measurement data with skewed distribution were expressed as M( Q1, Q3), and non-parametric rank sum test was used for comparison between groups. Count data were expressed as absolute numbers, and the chi-square test was used for comparison between groups. Corresponding statistical methods were used for univariate analysis. Binary Logistic regression model was used for multivariate analysis. Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curves were plotted, and the nomogram model was assessed by area under the curve (AUC), calibration curve, and decision curve. Results:(1) Analysis of influencing factors for MVI in hepatocellular carcinoma. Among 190 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, there were 97 cases of positive MVI (including 63 cases in the training set and 34 cases in the validation set) and 93 cases of negative MVI (including 70 cases in the training set and 23 cases in the validation set). Results of multivariate analysis showed that alpha-fetoprotein, vascular endothelial growth factor, tumor volume, the number of tumors, and tumor morphology were independent factors affecting the MVI of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma ( odds ratio=5.06, 3.62, 1.00, 2.02, 2.59, 95% confidence interval as 1.61-15.90, 1.28-10.20, 1.00-1.01, 1.02-3.98, 1.03-6.52, P<0.05). (2) Construction and evaluation of nomogram model of MVI in hepatocellular carcinoma. The results of multivariate analysis were incorporated to construct a nomogram prediction model for MVI of hepatocellular carcinoma. ROC curves showed that the AUC of the training set of nomogram model was 0.85 (95% confidence interval as 0.79-0.92), the optimal fractional cutoff based on the Jordon′s index was 0.51, the sensitivity was 0.71, and the specificity was 0.84. The above indicators of validation set were 0.92 (95% confidence interval as 0.85-0.99), 0.50, 0.90, and 0.82, respectively. The higher total score of the training set suggested a higher risk of MVI in hepatocellular carcinoma. The calibration curves of both training and validation sets of nomogram model fitted well with the standard curves and have a high degree of calibration. The decision curve showed a high net gain of nomogram model. Conclusions:Alpha-fetoprotein, vascular endothelial growth factor, tumor volume, the number of tumors, and tumor morphology are independent influencing factors for MVI in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. A nomogram model constructed based on three-dimensional visualized imaging features can predict MVI in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Objective:To study the impact of the age-adjusted Charlson comorbidity index (ACCI) on the prognosis of patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma following laparoscopic surgical resection.Methods:Clinical data of 136 patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma undergoing laparoscopic surgery at Zhengzhou University People's Hospital between January 2013 and January 2018 were retrospectively analyzed, including 81 males and 55 females, aged (63.6±9.8) years. Patients were divided into two groups based on the median ACCI score of 4.0: the high ACCI group (ACCI>4.0, n=49) and low ACCI group (ACCI≤4.0, n=87). The prognosis was compared between the two group. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to analyze the effect of ACCI on survival after laparoscopic surgery. Results:The 1- and 3-year cumulative survival rates in low ACCI group were 87.4% and 48.3%, respectively, compared to 53.1% and 4.1% in high ACCI group ( χ2=27.97, P<0.001). Univariate Cox regression analysis indicated that ACCI >4.0 was associated with prognosis ( HR=3.73, 95% CI: 2.44-5.68, P<0.001). Multivariate Cox regression analysis also indicated that ACCI >4.0 was associated with an increased risk of postoperative mortality in patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma ( HR=2.69, 95% CI: 1.65-4.37, P<0.001). Conclusion:The ACCI is a significant risk factor for survival of patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma following laparoscopic surgery, which could facilitate a precise preoperative assessment of patient status and choice of surgical approach.

Objective:To analyze the influencing factors of abnormal 15-minute retention rate of indocyanine green (ICG R15) (≥10%) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, and to construct a nomogram model, and to evaluate the prediction efficiency of the nomogram model.Methods:The clinical data of 190 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma in Zhengzhou University People's Hospital from December 2017 to June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, including 148 males and 42 females, aged (57.8±9.9) years. According to ICG R15, the patients were divided into ICG R15 normal group ( n=134, ICG R15<10%) and ICG R15 abnormal group ( n=56, ICG R15≥10%). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used to analyze the influencing factors of abnormal ICG R15, and the nomogram model was established. The predictive ability of the model was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and C-index, and the model was verified by calibration curve and decision analysis curve. Results:Abnormal ICG R15 group the proportion of liver cirrhosis, albumin ≤35 g/L, hemoglobin ≤110 g/L, platelet count ≤100×10 9/L, prothrombin time >13 s, alanine aminotransferase >40 U/L, aspartate aminotransferase >40 U/L, total bilirubin >34.2 μmol/L, and the largest tumor diameter >5.0 cm, spleen volume >383.1 cm 3, spleen volume to of non-tumor liver volume (SNLR) >0.276 and liver tumor volume >117.2 cm 3 were higher than that of ICG R15 normal group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that liver cirrhosis ( OR=3.89, 95% CI: 1.28-11.80, P=0.016), spleen volume >383.1 cm 3( OR=5.17, 95% CI: 1.38-19.38, P=0.015), SNLR >0.276 ( OR=5.54, 95% CI: 1.44-21.26, P=0.013) and total bilirubin >34.2 μmol/L( OR=10.20, 95% CI: 1.88-55.39, P=0.007) increased the risk of abnormal ICG R15. A nomogram model was constructed based on the above risk factors. The C-index of the model was 0.915 (95% CI: 0.872-0.957), and the area under the ROC curve predicted by the nomogram model was 0.915 (95% CI: 0.871-0.958). The calibration curve showed that the correlation index of the abnormal ICG R15 predicted by the nomogram was similar to actual situation. Decision analysis curve showed high returns. Conclusion:Liver cirrhosis, spleen volume >383.1 cm 3, SNLR>0.276 and total bilirubin >34.2 μmol/L were indepentlent risk factors for abnormal ICG R15 in patients with hepatocellur carcinoma. The clinical prediction model of ICG R15 abnormality constructed by nomogram has good prediction efficiency, which can provide a reference for evaluating preoperative liver reserve function of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.

Objective: To evaluate diet quality and related problems among children and adolescents in Yunnan Province, in order to provide a theoretical basis for the formulation of targeted dietary interventions for children and adolescents in this region. Methods: Using a stratified random sampling method, 1 078 primary and secondary school students from six prefecture level cities in Yunnan Province were selected from August to November 2022. Dietary quality was evaluated by applying the China Children s Dietary Index (CCDI-2016) on the basis of a 3 d 24 h dietary survey. Results: The total dietary index score of children and adolescents in Yunnan Province was 62.63(54.57,71.19). The overall recommended intakes were largely achieved by consumption of cereals, eggs and sugary drinks, with dietary index scores of 9.91(8.24,10.00), 5.58(0,8.58) and 9.20(7.38,10.00), respectively; there were inadequate intakes of vegetables, legumes, water, vitamin A and dietary fiber, with scores of 5.63(4.09,7.59), 3.48 (0,9.70), 4.23(2.67,5.50), 2.33(1.56,3.53), 3.19(1.63,5.67), respectively; intake of fruits, dairy and aquatic products were severely deficient, with scores of 0(0,1.74), 0(0,2.37), 0(0,9.85), respectively; excessive intake of meat was found, with a dietary index score of 0(0,2.46). The stratified analysis showed that children and adolescents aged 11-13 years had the highest total dietary scores[65.35(54.29,72.03)], followed by those aged 7-10 years[63.46(56.19,72.63)], while the 14-17 year old age group had the lowest scores[59.07(51.15,68.30), H=32.23, P <0.01]. Girls had higher total dietary scores than that of boys[64.20(56.12,72.56), 59.32(52.60,69.72), Z=-5.16, P <0.01], while urban children and adolescents had higher total dietary scores than rural children and adolescents[65.30(54.84,73.62), 62.17(54.31,70.70), Z=-2.11, P <0.05]. Furthermore, higher total dietary index scores were observed among children and adolescents whose parents had a higher educational level( H=27.68, 22.58, P <0.01). The comparison of ethnic groups revealed that the Wa children and adolescents had the highest total dietary index scores, while the Hani children had the lowest( H=27.51, P <0.01). Conclusion The overall dietary quality of children and adolescents in Yunnan Province is not high, the imbalance of dietary nutrition is prominent, and the dietary structure needs to be adjusted and optimized. Intervention programs should focus on the problem of insufficient intake of fruits and vegetables, milk and legumes, aquatic products and excessive intake of poultry meat among children and adolescents.

The United States is the country with the most pilot practices in value-based healthcare payment reform, and value-based purchasing (VBP) is one of its pilot projects. The authors introduced the basic situation and implementation effects of the pilot projects of VBP payment reform in the United States from the hospital and physician levels respectively, and analyzed the causes for their unsatisfactory implementation effects. Then, the authors proposed its enlightenments for China from such aspects as the construction of value-based medical payment index system, implementation of value-based medical payment reform, and management costs, to provide reference for the construction of high-quality value-based medical service system in China.

The pilot project for alternative payment models was originated from the implementation of the 2010 Affordable Care Act in the United States, which aimed to establish a new payment mode to replace the traditional payment based on service fees, thereby achieving the goals of ensuring healthcare quality, reducing healthcare costs, and improving healthcare equity. The pilot projects of alternative payment models included two types: accountable care organizations and bundled payments for care improvement. The authors introduced their profile and implementation effects, analyzed the causes of the current implementation effects, and then proposed enlightenments for the value-based medical payment reform in China, with the aim of providing reference for the construction of a high-quality value based medical service system in China.

Objective To study the effects of different parenteral nutrition on acute inflammatory response,immune cells and lipid metabolism in patients after pancreaticoduodenectomy.Methods Eighty patients after pancreaticoduodenectomy were divided into study group and control group,with 40 cases in each group.Structural fat emulsion was used in study group and medium/long chain fat emulsion in control group.The changes of acute inflammation,immune cells and lipid metabolism were compared between the two groups.Results (1)The levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) and serum prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in the two groups were significantly higher on the first day after operation than those before operation.The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).The level of CRP and PGE2 decreased to the preoperative level on the seventh day after operation,but the decline rate in the study group was significantly faster than that in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).(2) The levels of CD3 +,CD4 +,CD8 +,CD4 +/CD8 + in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).(3) After 3-7 days of intravenous parenteral nutrition infusion,the blood lipid level was significantly lower in study group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Structural fat emulsion alleviates the inflammatory reaction in patients after pancreaticoduodenectomy,promotes the recovery of immunity,significantly reduces the level of blood lipids.

Objective To evaluate the clinical application value of portal vein implantation pump for chemotherapy in patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) after radical surgery.Methods The clinical data of 97 patients with ICC who underwent radical surgery in Henan People's Hospital from June 2012 to June 2016 were retrospectively analyzed.Results Among the 97 patients,14 patients received portal venous pump chemotherapy (portal group),33 patients received peripheral venous chemotherapy (peripheral group),and 50 patients did not receive postoperative chemotherapy (control group).There were no statistically significant differences in gender and age between the three groups.The results of survival analysis indicated that the disease-free survival (DFS) period and overall survival (OS) time in the portal group and the peripheral group were significantly better than that in control group (both P ＜ 0.05).In addition,despite the lack of statistical significance (P ＞ 0.05),for the control of intrahepatic metastasis,portal vein pump chemotherapy was better than that of systemic chemotherapy via peripheral vein,and almost all side effects of chemotherapy in the portal group were lower than those in the peripheral group.Conclusion Portal vein pump chemotherapy can improve the prognosis of intrahepatic bile duct patients,especially for the control of intrahepatic metastasis,and can reduce systemic side effects of chemotherapy.

Objective:To study the miR-100 expression levels in the tissues of hepatocellular carcinoma patients, and to further explore the correlation between miR-100 and the invasion and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma cells and its effect on patients’ prognostic survival.Methods:Clinicopathological data of 70 cases that underwent hepatectomy from December 2013 to December 2016 in the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery of Henan Provincial People's Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR was used to detect the different miR-100 expression levels in cancerous and adjacent tissues. The expression of miR-100 with different clinicopathological features was compared, and the prognostic factors of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma were comprehensively analyzed. The correlation between miR-100 and patients’ clinicopathological features was tested by χ 2. Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw the survival curve. Log-rank test was used to examine the survival rate difference in each subgroup. Cox regression model was used to analyze the multivariate prognosis. Results:miR-100 expression was down-regulated to a different degree in hepatocellular carcinoma tissues than the corresponding adjacent tissues. Among them, the down-regulated expression of miR-100 in hepatocellular carcinoma tissues accounted for 82.9% (58/70, P < 0.05) of all cases when compared to corresponding paracancerous tissues. miR-100 expression level was significantly correlated to high Edmondson’s grade, high TNM stage and intrahepatic metastasis ( P < 0.05). The overall survival time of miR-100 positive expression was significantly higher than that of miR-100 negative expression (Log-rank χ 2 = 8.257, P < 0.05). Univariate survival analysis results revealed that the miR-100 expression level, tumor size, TNM stage, Edmondson’s grade, and presence or absence of venous tumor thrombosis had a poor prognosis ( P < 0.05). Cox multivariate regression analysis showed that the tumor size, Edmondson’s grade, and miR-100 expression level were independent factors affecting the prognostic survival in hepatocellular carcinoma patients. In addition, patients with low positive expression rate of miR-100, large tumors and high Edmondson’s grade had a poor prognosis. Conclusion:The level of miR-100 expression in hepatocellular carcinoma cells is low, so it is closely related to the invasion and metastasis and affects the prognostic survival of hepatocellular carcinoma patients.
