ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical value of right lateral position with real-time monitor for capsule endoscopy.MethodsA total of 80 patients were randomly divided into two groups.The observation group assumed the right lateral position,while the control group was in upright,standing or sitting position.The capsule endoscope was monitored real time.The patients were allowed to move after the capsule endoscope passed pylorus.Gastric transit time,small bowel transit time,small bowel examination completion rate and positive detection rate were compared between the two groups.ResultsThe mean gastric transit time of the observation group was (31.7 ± 29.8)min,which was significantly shorter than that in the control group (62.6 ± 55.9) min ( U =559.000,P =0.020).The mean transit time of small bowel was (221.3 ±78.8) min in the observation group,which was not significantly different from that of the control group ( t =0.511,P =0.611 ).The examination completion rate of whole small bowel was 95.0% (38/40)in the observation group,which was significantly higher than that of the control group (x2 =5.165,P =0.023).The positive detection rates were 75.0% (30/40) and 65.0% (26/40),respectively,which were not significantly different (x2 =0.952,P =0.329).ConclusionThe right lateral position with real-time monitor during capsule endoscopy is of better clinical value.

BACKGROUND: Studies have confirmed that Atorvastatin drugs can increase the number of endothelial progenitor cells significantly in vitro, as well as the content of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF). OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of Atorvastatin on VEGF expression in necrotic femoral heads of rabbits. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The randomized controlled animal experiment was performed at the Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University, from September 2007 to November 2008. MATERIALS: Forty-five male and female healthy New Zealand white rabbits weighing 2.5-3.5 kg were randomly divided into normal control group, model control group and AtorvastaUn group, 15 rabbits in each group. METHODS: Nitrogen refrigeration was used to develop femoral head necrosis models of rabbits in the model control and Atorvastatin groups. Two weeks after modeling, the animals in the Atorvastatin group were administered intragastically with Atorvastatin, normal control and model control group were treated with the same volume of normal saline. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Each five rabbits were sacrificed at the 4th, 8th, and 12th weeks respectively for general observation, X-ray and histological observation. VEGF protein expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry method and VEGF mRNA level was assessed by reverse transcription - polymerase chain reaction method. RESULTS: The VEGF protein and mRNA levels in the model control and Atorvastatin groups were obviously lower than those in the normal control group, while the VEGF protein and mRNA levels in the Atorvastatin group were much higher than those in the model control group at the 8th and 12th weeks alter the treatment with Atorvastatin (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Atorvastatin can significantly upregulate the expression of VEGF, which is probably an effective clinical treatment to avascular necrosis of the femoral head.

Objective To build a bio-material artificial chest wall and discuss its feasibility and efficiency in reconstruction of huge bony defects of chest wall in mongrels in comparison with traditional "sandwich" procedure. Methods (1) The procine osteal and membranate tissues were treated with epoxy cross linking method and their surfaces were modified with amino acid solutions at various concen-trations and at different temperatures to obtain an artificial pleura and artificial ribs for construction of the artificial chest wall. (2) The huge bony defects (5 cm×5 cm) were created in chest wall of five Chinese mongrels. (3) Three mongrels in test group was repaired with artificial chest wall, while two mongrels in control group was repaired with traditional "sandwich" complex. A follow-up was carried out to observe reconstruction effect and rejection in both groups at 3,6 and 12 months after implantation. Results There was no death found during the perioperative period and at 12 month follow-up in test group, with abnormal contour of chest wall and good thoracic activity after reconstruction. In the meantime, there found no rejection, collapse in the repaired region or paradoxical respiration. The postoperative X-rays at 3,6,12 and 24 months showed a good integrity of the thorax, with no collapse, deformation or abnormal movement. Meanwhile, the follow-up of control group showed a normal contour but slight collapse, with no paradoxical respiration. The Chest X-ray examination revealed that the bone cement in" sandwich" complex was X ray opaque and showed mild abnormal movement with breathing. The common blood test and immune items showed no abnormal. Conclusions The bio-material artificial chest wall is a safe and effective reconstruction technique for bony defects of thoracic wall in mongrels, with no acute or chronic rejection.

Objective:To investigate the short-term efficacy of totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (TLDG) after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) versus direct TLDG for early gastric cancer.Methods:The propensity score matching and retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 623 patients with early gastric cancer who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from March 2014 to December 2019 were collected. There were 405 males and 218 females, aged from 26 to 86 years, with a median age of 62 years. Of 623 patients, 25 cases undergoing TLDG after ESD were divided into ESD+TLDG group and 598 cases undergoing TLDG directly were divided into TLDG group. Observation indicators: (1) the propensity score matching conditions and comparison of general data between the two groups after propensity score matching; (2) intraoperative and postoperative situations of TLDG; (3) stratification analysis of the ESD+TLDG group. The propensity score matching was conducted by 1∶2 matching using the nearest neighbor method. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean±SD, and comparison between groups was done using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M (range) and comparison between groups was done using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were represented as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Comparison of ordinal data between groups was analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test. Results:(1) The propensity score matching conditions and comparison of general data between the two groups after propensity score matching: 75 of 623 patients had successful matching, including 25 in the ESD+TLDG group and 50 in the TLDG group. Before propensity score matching, the body mass index (BMI), cases with tumor diameter ≤20 mm, 21 to 30 mm or>30 mm, cases with tumor classified as stage Ⅰ, stage Ⅱ or stage Ⅲ of clinical staging were (22.3±3.6)kg/m 2, 16, 6, 3, 24, 1, 0 of the ESD+TLDG group, respectively, versus (24.3±2.7)kg/m 2, 238, 125, 235, 312, 126, 160 of the TLDG group, showing significant differences in the above indicators between the two groups ( t=2.744, Z=?2.834, ?4.209, P<0.05). After propensity score matching, the BMI, cases with tumor diameter ≤20 mm, 21 to 30 mm or >30 mm, cases with tumor classified as stage Ⅰ or stage Ⅱ of clinical staging were (22.3±3.6)kg/m 2, 16, 6, 3, 24, 1 of the ESD+TLDG group, versus (23.6±2.9)kg/m 2, 29, 12, 9, 48, 2 of the TLDG group, showing no significant difference between the two groups ( t=1.542, Z=?0.597, 0.000, P>0.05). (2) Intraoperative and postoperative situations of TLDG: after propensity score matching, the operation time and time to postoperative drainage tube removal were 180 minutes(range, 124 to 289 minutes) and 6 days(range, 4 to 13 days) of the ESD+TLDG group,respectively,versus 170 minutes(range, 106 to 250 minutes) and 6 days (range, 4 to 9 days) of the TLDG group, showing significant differences between the two groups ( Z=-2.396, -3.039, P<0.05).

Conclusions:Compared with cases undergoing TLDG directly, the operation time to TLDG and time to drainage tube removal after TLDG for cases undergoing ESD+TLDG are prolonged, but there is no difference in the short-term efficacy. For cases undergoing TLDG ≤21 days after ESD and cases undergoing TLDG >21 days after ESD, there is a significant difference in the operation time of TLDG.
