Objective To assess the effect of preoperative carbohydrate preconditioning on postoperative insulin resistance and inflammatory response in patients after gastroenteric tumor resection.Methods Sixty patients with elective gastroenteric tumor resection were divided into preoperative carbohydrate preconditioning group and control group by random digits table with 30 cases each.Preoperative carbohydrate preconditioning group was given oral containing 50 g glucose carbohydrate 300 ml 2 h before surgery,and control group was given traditional method,fasting 12 h before surgery and water deprivation 6 h before surgery.The blood samples were collected to measure the level of fasting blood glucose (FBG),fasting insulin (FINS),interleukin (IL)-6 and C-reactive protein (CRP),3 h before surgery and 1,3,7 d after surgery respectively.Homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) was computed.Results There were no statistical differences in FBG,FINS,IL-6,CRP and HOMA-IR 3 h before surgery between the 2 groups (P ＞ 0.05).The FBG,FINS,IL-6,C RP and HOMA-IR in the 2 groups at 1,3 d after surgery were significantly higher than those 3 h before surgery,but those except for FBG in control group were significantly higher than those in preoperative carbohydrate preconditioning group [1 d after surgery:(39.67 ± 10.37) mU/L vs.(25.78 ± 12.43) mU/L,(98.67 ± 12.42) μg/L vs.(65.36 ± 16.72)μg/L,(121.74 ±11.32) mg/L vs.(82.18 ±4.36) mg/L,19.07 ±5.49 vs.11.67 ±6.32;3 d after surgery:(24.34 ±6.78) mU/L vs.(16.23 ±7.56) mU/L,(116.43 ± 18.57) μg/L vs.(78.53 ± 10.38) μg/L,(151.30 ± 10.46) mg/L vs.(129.29 ± 10.24) mg/L,8.56 ±2.87 vs.5.12 ±2.11],there were statistical differences (P ＜0.05).There were no statistical differences in FINS and HOMA-IR in preoperative carbohydrate preconditioning group between 7 d after surgery and 3 h before surgery (P ＞ 0.05),but there was statistical difference in control group (P＜ 0.05).There were no statistical differences in FBG,IL-6 and CRP in the 2 groups between 7 d after surgery and 3 h before surgery (P ＞ 0.05).There was no aspiration during anesthetic stage.Conclusion Preoperative carbohydrate preconditioning may shorten the insulin resistance time after gastroenteric tumor resection,reduce the intensity of insulin resistance,and improve inflammatory response,thus contributing to the rehabilitation of patients.

Objective To discuss the clinical value of bile reinfusion via nasojejunal tube on liver function after biliary tract surgery. Methods Eighty patients with biliary tract surgery and bile outer drainage were divided into bile reinfusion group and control group by random digits table method with 40 cases each. The clinical data concerning the liver function and volume of biliary drainage were collected. Results The patients were well tolerated for bile reinfusion, and abdominal distension, nausea and vomiting occurred in some patients. The symptoms improved significantly after symptomatic treatment. The alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and total bilirubin (TBIL) levels at the fifth day after operation in bile reinfusion group were significantly reduced than those in control group:(31 ± 18) U/L vs. (48 ± 32) U/L and (51 ± 32)μmol/L vs. (76 ± 38)μmol/L, the aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and ALT levels at the seventh day after operation in bile reinfusion group were significantly reduced than those in control group: (32 ± 19) U/L vs. (43 ± 26) U/L and (20 ± 19) U/L vs. (31 ± 22) U/L, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). The volume of biliary drainage in the bile reinfusion group was significantly increased compared with that in control group at the third and fourth day after operation:(485 ± 52) ml vs. (428 ± 96) ml and (509 ± 62) ml vs. (458 ± 59) ml, and there was statistical difference (P<0.01). Conclusions Bile reinfusion via the nasojejunal tube may facilitate the recovery of liver function after biliary tract surgery.

The overall skin ulceration area was accounted for 13% of total body surface area. We chose different dressings, combination anti-infection with promoting wound healing for nursing and achieved great effect. The skin lesions gradually healed and the patient went to the general ward successfully.

Objective:Colorectal cancer screening was performed on a general population with age ranging between 40 and 74 years old to evaluate the screening effects of questionnaire survey, fecal occult blood (FOB) test, and colonoscopy, as well as to provide some implications of colorectal cancer screening strategies. Methods: Two-step screening model of questionnaire survey combined with FOB test was applied for the screening. Colonoscopy was conducted in a high-risk population identified through preliminary screening as final diagnosis. Results:Based on the 2,117,304 cases screened, the screening compliance was 39.72%, and 126,118 cases (5.96%) were identified as high risk. Colonoscopies were performed on 25,837 cases, of which 8,095, 1,236, 134, 112, and 336 were identified as adenoma, advanced adenoma, severe dysplasia lesions, early cancer, and advanced cancer, respectively. The early stage di-agnostic rate was 81.52%. Conclusion:The colorectal cancer screening method performed in Tianjin can significantly concentrate on the high-risk population with colorectal cancer, increase the positivity rate of total colonoscopy, and economize medical resources.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of laparoscopic endoscopic cooperative dissection without mucosa injury for patients with small gastric stromal tumor. Methods Fifteen patients with small gastric stromal tumor underwent laparoscopy and endoscopy combination therapy from January 2015 to October 2016. The gastric serous layer was cut open after submucosal injection, and then tumor was removed without mucosa injury under laparoscope. The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. Results All of the 15 patients successfully completed the operation,and no one conversed to open surgery because of intraoperative complications. The operation time was 53.4±15.8 min, and the intraoperative blood loss was 15.2±3.5 mL. The gastric tube was pulled out on the day of operation.The mean time of recovering liquid diet after operation was 1.6±0.5 days, and the length of postoperative hospital stay was 3.3 ± 0.6 days. All the specimen had complete pseudocapsule,and their pathology results were all gastric stromal tumors,including 12 cases of very low risk degree, 2 low risk degree, and 1 middle risk degree. Conclusion Laparoscopic endoscopic cooperative dissection for small gastric stromal tumor has satisfactory short-term outcomes and shows a quick postoperative recovery,which meets the idea of minimally invasive surgery and rapid recovery. It is a new choice of treatment for patients with small gastric stromal tumor.

Myocardial ischemia (MI) causes somatic referred pain and sympathetic hyperactivity, and the role of sensory inputs from referred areas in cardiac function and sympathetic hyperactivity remain unclear. Here, in a rat model, we showed that MI not only led to referred mechanical hypersensitivity on the forelimbs and upper back, but also elicited sympathetic sprouting in the skin of the referred area and C8-T6 dorsal root ganglia, and increased cardiac sympathetic tone, indicating sympathetic-sensory coupling. Moreover, intensifying referred hyperalgesic inputs with noxious mechanical, thermal, and electro-stimulation (ES) of the forearm augmented sympathetic hyperactivity and regulated cardiac function, whereas deafferentation of the left brachial plexus diminished sympathoexcitation. Intradermal injection of the α₂ adrenoceptor (α₂AR) antagonist yohimbine and agonist dexmedetomidine in the forearm attenuated the cardiac adjustment by ES. Overall, these findings suggest that sensory inputs from the referred pain area contribute to cardiac functional adjustment via peripheral α₂AR-mediated sympathetic-sensory coupling.
