1.The Development and Utilization of Foreign Open Access Journal Full-text Websites
Journal of Medical Informatics 2009;30(8):34-37
The paper introduces 23 foreign open access journal full-text websites according to subject classification, in order to provide a platform for researchers to get well known about those websites, so as to retrieve foreign medicine journal information quickly and correctly, moreover to make up the deficiency of foreign-language academic journals in our country.
2.How to get free articles on biomedicine from web sites abroad.
Journal of Biomedical Engineering 2010;27(6):1350-1352
Since "Budapest Open Access Initiative" signed in 2002, there have been more and more open-access journals coming out on Internet, thus brining the best condition to the researchers. It has made better the phenomenon of not having enough foreign language periodicals in our country. The present author has selected part of free biomedicine periodical websites: High Wire Press; PubMed Central; BioMed Central; BioLine International; Free Medical Journals Site; Scientific Electronic Library; Hindawi; Academic Journals Inc; Biomedical Journals from India. And then, analysis and demonstration are made with respect to the search channels of 3 main free electronic periodical websites. It is the intent of this paper to make things convenient for researchers to get information from the websites quickly.

Objective:To analyze the pathogenesis and clinical characteristics of appendiceal neoplasms and its prognosis.Methods:In recent 14 years, 94 appendiceal neoplasms were found among 6 334 patients undergoing appendectomy in a single center of Ordos Central Hospital.The initial symptoms, clinical features, auxiliary examinations, pathology, surgical methods, and clinical outcomes of 94 patients diagnosed with appendix tumors were recorded.Results:Appendiceal neoplasms accounted for 1.48% for all undergoing appendectomy. Among these 94 cases, 49 cases were female and 45 cases were male. The median age was 59.5 years. 80 cases were followed up with a follow-up rate of 85.1%, and the follow-up period was 2-175 months.The 5-year overall survival rate was 91.9% and the 10-year overall survival rate was 88.9%.The results of univariate analysis of prognosis showed that the prognosis of patients with WBC count>10.0×10 9/L (χ 2 =8.884, P=0.003) and lymph node metastasis(χ 2 =17.216, P=0.001) was relatively poor. The prognosis of appendiceal adenocarcinoma is relatively poor compared with mucinous tumors(χ 2=13.857 , P=0.001 ). Conclusions:The incidence of appendiceal neoplasms is very low; Chronic lower right abdominal pain accounted for a large proportion of the manifestations; Classification of appendiceal neoplasms, leukocyte count and lymph node metastasis predict the prognosis of patients with appendiceal neoplasms.

Objective To analyze the status of domestic surgical treatment of synchronous peritoneal carcinomatosis from colorectal cancer in China. Methods Clinicopathological data of patients who underwent surgery from October 2003 to October 2018 in 16 domestic medical centers was retrospectively analyzed. Excel database was created which covered 77 fields of 7 parts: baseline information of patients, laboratory tests, imaging tests, chemoradiotherapy information, intra?operative findings, postoperative pathology and follow?up data. The Wilcoxon rank?sum test was used for comparison of the measurement data between groups. The χ2 test was used for comparison of the categorical data between groups. The survival curve was calculated by the Kaplan?Meier method. Results Of the 1 003 patients, there were 575 male and 428 female patients with the age of (58.5±14.1) years (range: 18 to 92 years). In a total of 920 patients, the carcinoma of sigmoid colon was performed in 292 cases (31.8%) with the highest ratio. The proportion of patients with liver metastasis and lung metastasis were 27.9% (219/784) and 8.3% (64/769). Preoperative detection of carcino?embryonic antigen level was the most common method in China (87.74%, 880/1 003), and the positive rate was 64.5% (568/880). The correct rate of preoperative imaging tests was 40.7% (280/688). The ratio of peritoneal carcinomatosis index (PCI) scores between 0 and 10 was the highest (59.6%, 170/285). Two hundred and sixty?two (27.0%) patients were performed by totally laparoscopic operation in 971 patients. The resection of primary tumor was performed in 588 of the 817 patients (72.0%). In a total of 457 cases, 253 (55.4%) patients were performed cytoreduction which group scored completeness of cytoreduction (CCR) 0. The postoperative hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy was implemented in 70 of the 334 cases (21.0%). Among 1 003 cases, 562 cases (56.03%) had complete follow?up data and the median overall survival was 15 months. The primary tumor resection and the CCR scores were affected by the PCI scores. The patients underwent primary tumor resection (187/205 vs. 26/80, χ2=105.085, P=0.000) and the patients were performed cytoreduction which scored CCR 0 or CCR 1 (162/204 vs . 8/78, Z=-10.465, P=0.000) had significant difference between the groups of PCI<20 and≥20. There was a close correlation between the surgical method and the CCR scores (Z=-3.246,P=0.001).When the maximum degree of tumor reduction was planned, most surgeons would choose laparotomy. The overall survival time was longer in patients with primary tumor resection (P=0.000). The median survival time was 18.6 months in the group of primary tumor resection. Conclusions It is difficult to diagnose the synchronous peritoneal carcinomatosis from colorectal cancer before the operation. Primary tumor resection has an obvious effect to prolong the survival time.It is necessary to standardize the treatment of peritoneal metastasis.
