Objective To explore the expression of EphB4 and VEGF in esophageal cancer tissues and their relationship with microvessel density (MVD ) ,and analysis the curative effect of postoperative esophageal cancer radical under thoracoscope . Methods Theexpression of EphB4 and VEGF was detected by immunohistochemistry in tumor specimens from 76 cases of esopha-geal squamous cell carcinoma and paratumor normal specimens ,used CD34 as marker to count MVD .According to the situation of expression of EphB4 and VEGF ,we analysis their relationship with lymph node metastasis rate ,recurrence and 5-year survival rate . Results The positive expression rate of EphB4 and VEGF in cancerous tissue (57 .89% and 61 .84% ) ,were significantly higher than that in tissue adjacent to carcinoma(0 and 7 .89% )(P<0 .05) .The positive expression rate ofEphB4 and VEGF in high MVD values of patients (67 .44% and 76 .19% ) ,were significantly higher than thatin low MVD values of patients (45 .45% and 44 .11% )(P<0 .05) .The positive expression rate ofEphB4 and VEGF in the patientswith lymph node metastasis group and associ-ated with recurrence ,were significantly higher than that of group without lymph node metastasis and group without recurrence (P<0 .05) .The positive expression rate of EphB4 and VEGF in patients of greater than or equal to 5 years of survival rate(45 .00% and 45 .45% ) ,were significantly lower than in patientsof Less than 5 years of survival rate (80 .36% and 85 .19% )(P<0 .05) .Conclu-sion EphB4 and VEGF are highly expressed in esophageal cancer tissue ,which may be closely associated withmicrovessel density , and lymph node metastasis ,recurrence and 5 years survival rate ;the curative effect of positive expression rate of EphB 4 and VEGF is poor .

Objective To investigate the effects of urinary ostomy bag connected with disposable drainage bag on drainage of abdominal cavity after surgery on gastrointestinal tumor.Methods A total of 82 patients carried out drainage of the abdominal cavity after surgery on gastrointestinal tumor in Cancer Hospital of Jiangxi Province from January to December 2015 were selected and divided into control group (n=40) and observation group (n=42).During the period of abdominal cavity drainage,the control group was given routine dressing change.In addition to the conventional treatment of the drainage incision,the observation group utilized urinary ostomy bag connected with disposable drainage bag for drainage.The incidence rates of leakage and irritable dermatitis around abdominal drainage mouth,dressing times of drainage incision,healing time of drainage incision and patient comfort in drainage were compared between the two groups.Results At the end of abdominal cavity drainage,the incidence rates of leakage and irritable dermatitis around abdominal drainage mouth of the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group (x2 =5.550,6.717;P=0.043,0.010);the dressing times of drainage incision in the observation group was significantly less than that in the control group (t=13.840,P=0.000);the healing time of drainage incision in the observation group was significantly shorter than that in the control group (t=6.854,P=0.000);the comfort in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group 0=7.429,P=0.000).Conclusion Urinary bag connected with disposable drainage bag for drainage after surgery on gastrointestinal tumor can effectively reduce the occurrence of leakage and irritable dermatitis around abdominal drainage mouth,improve patient comfort,it is worthy of clinical promotion.
