Objective:To explore the application value of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in laparoscopic radical resection of bladder cancer and ileal bladder surgery under modular operation procedures.Methods:A retrospective selection of 42 cases of laparoscopic radical radical resection of bladder cancer and ileal bladder surgery performed by the Department of Urology, General Hospital of Southern Theater Command from January 2017 to December 2019 were divided into two groups according to the different management methods adopted during the perioperative period: ERAS management group and conventional management group, each with 21 cases. Among them, patients in the ERAS management group were managed by ERAS during the perioperative period, and patients in the conventional management group were managed by conventional management during the perioperative period. The postoperative hospital stay, first exhaust time, first defecation time, first time to get out of bed, first liquid food time, postoperative visual analogue scale (VAS) score, as well as transferrin, upper arm circumference, body mass index, plasma albumin, total protein, and total protein were compared between the two groups of patients after surgery. The measurement data conforming to the normal distribution were expressed as mean±standard deviation ( Mean± SD), and the in dependent t-test was used for comparison between groups; the measurement data of non-normal distribution were expressed as the median (interquartile range) [ M( P25, P75)], the independent sample Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison between groups; the Chi-square test was used for comparison of enumeration data between groups. Results:The postoperative hospital stay in the ERAS group was (8.9±1.8) d, the first exhaust time was (33.4±3.2) h, the first defecation time was (60.3±7.8) h, the first time to get out of bed was (23.1±6.7) h, the first liquid food time was (82.7±18.5) h and postoperative VAS was (1.3±0.6), that were significantly reduced compared with the conventional treatment group [(12.3±2.3) d, (51.4±5.2) h, (73.0±8.1) h, (34.7±8.2) h, (109.7±21.6) h, (3.6±0.8)], the difference were statistically significant ( P<0.05). In the ERAS group, the decreased value of transferrin was [0.8 (-0.4, 2.2) g/L], the decreased value of body mass index was[1.61±0.73], the decreased value of plasma albumin was [3.5±1.5 g/L], the decrease value of total protein was[10.1±5.6 g/L] and the decrease value of prealbumin was [90.5±11.3 mg/L] were significantly lower than those of the conventional management group[(1.9(0.9, 3.6) g/L, (2.32±1.05) kg/m 2, (9.6±2.0) g/L, (16.3±4.9) g/L, (131.3±7.4) g/L], and the difference were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Modular laparoscopic precision resection of bladder cancer and ERAS concept after ileal bladder surgery is beneficial to shorten the hospital stay, reduce postoperative pain, have less impact on the patient′s body loss and immune function, and can speed up the patient′s postoperative recovery.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of β-elemene combined with gefitinib in the treatment of advanced lung adenocarcinoma patients with slow progression after first-line gefitinib treatment and its effects on quality of life and immune function.Methods:A prospective cohort study design was used to enroll patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma who met the inclusion criteria from June 2017 to December 2018 in our hospital. They were divided into experimental group and control group by random number table method. The experimental group was given elemene combined with gefitinib, and the control group was only given gefitinib. The clinical efficacy, quality of life and immune function of the two groups were compared after 2 cycles of treatment. The PFS2 (time from slow progression of disease to rapid progression of disease) was followed up.Results:A total of 61 patients were included. There were 30 cases in the experimental group and 31 cases in the control group. The disease control rates of the experimental group and the control group were 83.3% (25/30) and 58.1% (18/31) respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=4.680, P=0.031). The short-term efficacy of the experimental group was better than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-2.623, P=0.009). The median PFS2 of the experimental group was 4.20 months (95% CI: 3.94-4.46), and the median PFS2 of the control group was 4.00 months (95% CI: 2.94-5.07), with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=4.948, P=0.026). Quality of life was compared between the two groups: in terms of physical function, emotional function and overall quality of life, score differences before and after treatment of the experimental group were higher than those of the control group, with statistically significant differences [6.67(-6.66, 20.00) vs. 0(-6.66, 6.66), Z=-2.429, P=0.015; 29.17(2.08, 56.26) vs. 12.49(-14.59, 39.57), Z=-2.263, P=0.024; 16.67(-33.33, 56.67) vs. 8.34(-18.74, 35.42), Z=-2.249, P=0.025]. In terms of immune function, CD4 + T cells level in the experimental group increased after treatment compared with that before treatment (44.27%±6.78% vs. 41.17%±3.73%, t=-2.426, P=0.022), and CD8 + T cells level decreased compared with that before treatment (21.47%±3.18% vs. 23.50%±2.37%, t=2.532, P=0.017). After treatment, the level of CD4 + T cells in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group (44.27%±6.78% vs. 39.63%±5.80%, t=2.725, P=0.011). Conclusion:β-elemene combined with gefitinib has a certain effect in the treatment of advanced lung adenocarcinoma patients with slow progression after first-line gefitinib treatment, and the quality of life and immune function are improved. It is worthy of further clinical research.

Objective To observe the effect of athletic taping on shoulder subluxation in stroke patients with hemiplegia. Methods From March, 2017 to March, 2018, 40 stroke patients with hemiplegia were randomly divided into control group (n = 20) and experiment group (n = 20). They all accepted routine rehabilitation training, and the experiment group accepted athletic taping before the training. They were measured acromio-humeral distance (AHD) before and after four weeks of treatment. Meanwhile, the were assessed with Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) of pain, simplified Fugl-Meyer Assessment-upper extremity (FMA-UE) and Functional Comprehensive Assessment (FCA). Results AHD, and scores of VAS, FMA-UE and FCA improved in both the groups after treatment (Z > 3.508, t > 4.544, P < 0.001), and improved more in the scores of VAS, FMA-UE and FCA in the experiment group than in the control group (Z = -3.151, t > 2.843, P < 0.01). Conclusion Athletic taping can alleviate shoulder pain, promote upper limb functional recovery and improve the ability of daily living for stroke patients with hemiplegia.

The fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda, is a destructive pest native to America and has recently become an invasive insect pest in China. Because of its rapid spread and great risks in China, understanding of FAW genetic background and pesticide resistance is urgent and essential to develop effective management strategies. Here, we assembled a chromosome-level genome of a male FAW (SFynMstLFR) and compared re-sequencing results of the populations from America, Africa, and China. Strain identification of 163 individuals collected from America, Africa and China showed that both C and R strains were found in the American populations, while only C strain was found in the Chinese and African populations. Moreover, population genomics analysis showed that populations from Africa and China have close relationship with significantly genetic differentiation from American populations. Taken together, FAWs invaded into China were most likely originated from Africa. Comparative genomics analysis displayed that the cytochrome p450 gene family is extremely expanded to 425 members in FAW, of which 283 genes are specific to FAW. Treatments of Chinese populations with twenty-three pesticides showed the variant patterns of transcriptome profiles, and several detoxification genes such as AOX, UGT and GST specially responded to the pesticides. These findings will be useful in developing effective strategies for management of FAW in China and other invaded areas.
