Objective: To explore change of plasma endogenous hydrogen sulfide content before and after late open vasculature in patients with myocardial infarction and its significance. Methods: A total of 60 patients with primary myocardial infarction, who didn’t receive thrombolytic therapy and lesion locations had been confirmed by coronary angiography, were divided into group of successfully open after occlusion in proximal segment of left anterior descending artery (LAD group, n=20), group of successfully open after occlusion in proximal segment of right coronary artery (RCA group, n=20) and group of successfully open after occlusion in proximal segment of both above arteries (LAD + RCA group, n=20). Spectrophotometry method was used to measure concentration of endogenous H2S before and after open vasculature in all groups. Results: Compared with endogenous H2S level before open vasculature, there were significant increase in endogenous H2S level in LAD group [(24.44+3.27) μmol/L vs. (37.47+2.38) μmol/L], RCA group [(24.48+3.60) μmol/L vs. (37.22+2.56) μmol/L] and LAD + RCA group [(20.41+2.22) μmol/L vs. (30.34+2.37) μmol/L] after open vasculature, P<0.05 all. Conclusion: Concentration of endogenous hydrogen sulfide significantly increases after open vasculature in patients with myocardial infarction; it may be beneficial for prognosis of patients.

Peritoneal metastasis in gastric cancer is associated with rapid disease progression. Hyperthermic intraoperative peritoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) done immediately after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) has become an important treatment for peritoneal metastasis in gastric cancer patients. However, different treatment options for HIPEC exist with potential influence on survival rates and prognosis in patients, exist. These treatment options include open or closed abdomen technique, perfusion solution, number of catheters, temperature, duration, and drug regimens. This paper aims to provide more evidence on standardization of HIPEC treatment options and technologies by systematically reviewing different drug regimens and technical approaches. The study included 2 randomized controlled trials, 3 phase I/II clinical trials, 2 prospective cohort studies, and 34 retrospective cohort studies, involving 1511 patients. The most common HIPEC option is to dissolve 50-75 mg/m 2 of Cisplatin and 30-40 mg/m 2 of Mitomycin C in 3-4 L saline solution at 42-43℃. After gastrointestinal anastomosis, 2-3 catheters are used in the HIPEC system with a perfusion flow rate of 500 ml/min. The duration is 60-90 minutes. Anastomotic leakage was low in studies where HIPEC was performed after gastrointestinal anastomosis. The utilization of open HIPEC and a two-drug regimen resulted in improved overall survival rates. The future development of HIPEC aims to enhance tumor-specific therapy by optimizing various aspects, such as identifying the safest and most effective chemotherapy regimens, refining patient selection criteria, and improving perioperative care.
