Objective To determine the effective prognostic parameter and the best prognostic index of gastiric carcinoma.Methods The prognostic relevance of clinical and pathological variables were evaluated in 83 patients with histologically proved stomach carcinoma (including the expression of nm23, c erbB2, microbloodvessel and PTNM) by the multivariate analysis of COX regression.Result PTNM staging was the only parameter to enter the COX model.Conclusion The PTNM staging is the most important, reliable and best varible factor in predicting the clinical outcome of stomach cancer.

Objective To identify etiological factors for non-ulcer dyspepsia (NUD) in elderly patients presenting to the emergency department.Methods A total of 97 elderly patients with NUD presenting to the emergency department from January 2011 to December 2013 were enrolled in the NUD group and 116 elderly people undergoing annual physical examinations served as the control group.Clinical data,including Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection,unhealthy living habits,anxiety,depression and regular intake,were collected and compared between the two groups.Results Compared with the control group,the NUP group showed a higher HP infection rate [70.1％ (68/97)vs.54.3％ (63/116),x2 =5.565,P＜0.05],a higher incidence of unhealthy living habits (unhealthy dietary habits,smoking,drinking,and lack of regular exercise) (P＜0.05),a higher incidence of suspect anxiety/anxiety and a higher incidence of regular intake [30.9％ (30/97) vs 10.3％ (12/116),x2=14.138,P＜0.05].SerumpepsinogenⅠ(PGⅠ) [(178.7±13.6) μg/L vs.(125.2±10.5)μg/L,t=1.971,P＜0.01] and serum pepsinogen Ⅱ(PG Ⅱ) [(28.8±5.3) μg/L vs.(14.7±3.8)μg/L,t=1.960,P＜0.01] levels were also higher in the elderly NUD patients than in the control group.Conclusions HP infection,unhealthy living habits,anxiety and/or depression,and regular intake are closely associated with NUD in the elderly.Serum PGⅠ and PGⅡ could be used as markers in screening for malignant lesions in elderly patients with dyspepsia.

Objective To investigate the effect of tuftsin and its inhibitor on pancreas microcirculation in acute pancreatitis(AP). Methods Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into five groups. Murine AP model was produced by retrograde injection of 4% sodium taurocholate into pancreatic duct, tuftsin or its inhibitor was injected at a dosage of 75 ?g/kg. At the time of 0,3, 6, 12 h, pancreas was harvested for pathology of microthrombus. esults Microthrombus in control group was not different with that in tuftsin group; At the time of 3、6 and 12 h microthrombus in other 3 groups significantly increased than control group and tuftsin group; With time, microthrombus in AP group、AP+ tuftsin group and AP+inhibitor group increased steadily and statistically significant; Tuftsin inhibitor significantly decreased microthrombus at the time of 6、12 h.Conclusions In acute pancreatitis tuftsin deteriorated pancreas microcirculation, which could be partially reversed by the administration of tuftsin inhibitor.

Objective To evaluate surgical treatment for different types of tumor of the suprarenal infrahepatic segment of the inferior vena cava (IVC).Methods A retrospective analysis was made on 8cases of IVC leiomyosarcoma at the suprarenal infrahepatic IVC segment.According to the extent of tumor invasion and collateral circulations,operations included tumor resection plus inferior vena cava reconstruction or tumor resection plus right nephrectomy.Results Tumors were completly resected in all patients.Renal function recovered after operation.During a follow up of 24 mons,7 cases had no recurrence.One case with recurrence after 12 months underwent successful resection and is doing well after a follow-up of 12 months.Conclusion CT and inferior vena cavography can determine the extent of tumor invasion and collateral circulations helping select appropriate surgical aproach before the operation resulting in less renal injury.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of Behcet's disease (BD) with intestinal lesions to provides further reference for the diagnosis and treatment.Methods Four hundred and one cases of BD patients' data were collected including basic data,colonoscopy report,pathology diagnosis and hematologic examination.Statistical description of intestinal lesions was applied and analyzed for the differences between the locations and blood examinations of intestinal lesions.Results Within these 401 BD patients,88 (21.95 ％) with intestinal lesions.Intestinal ulcerations,including both active and inactive phase,appeared in 52 cases (12.97％) mostly founded in ileocecum,in which 62.86％ (22/ 401,5.49％ of all BD patients) without the abdominal discomfort.Compared with inactive phase,the active phase intestinal BD patients have higher inflammation indexes with C reactive protein (CRP) increased of statistical significance (P =0.028).Thirty-three cases (8.23 ％) with adenomas were founded,including tubular adenoma,serrated adenoma and villous adenoma.Mostly occurred in rectum,sigmoid colon,especially the sigmoid colon rectum junction.Adenomas were seen in eider patients with statistical significance compared to BD patients without intestinal lesion or with intestinal ulceration (P =0.022,0.000),and exhibited elder changes of lab tests,such as increas in aspartate aminotransferase (AST),gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) and uric acid (UA).In addition,2 cases of melanosis coli and 1 case of caecal diverticulum were also founded.Conclusions BD patients with intestinal ulcer or adenoma takes a fairly high ratio,and most intestinal BD and BD with adenoma patients did not complaint related symptoms,so colonoscopy as a screening method for diagnosis and treatment of BD is necessary.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of a comprehensive surgical approach of hyoid suspension with Repose system plus uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP) on the treatment of severe obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). METHOD: Twelve patients with severe OSAHS (AHI > 40) diagnosed by polysomnography, were determined for the obstruction in both the velo-pharyngeal and the hypopharynx by preoperative physical examination, fiberoptic pharyngo-laryngoscopy. Two cases were given continuous airway pressure via nose, seven days before operation and then were performed hyoid suspension plus UPPP. The follow up was 3 months postoperatively. The pair T test was used to compare the preoperative and postoperative results by SPSS11.0 for windows. RESULT: At postoperative 3 month, there were statistically significance between preoperative and postoperative measurement in all. Mean AHI decreased from preoperative 69.28 +/- 6.50 to postoperative 19.77 +/- 9.23, lowest mean oxygen saturation increased from 65.25 -/+ 3.14 to 90.17 +/- 2.86. Snoring and sleep apnea disappeared or lessened, with the disappearance or decrease of lethargy at daytime. No severe complication occurred. CONCLUSION Comprehensive surgical approach of hyoid suspension with Repose system plus UPPP is effective surgical approach for patients with severe OSAHS who suffered from oropharyngeal and hypopharyngeal obstruction in short- term result.

Objective lo explore the application value of medial caudal approach combined with middle page-turning lymphadenectomy in laparoscopic radical right hemicolectomy.Methods Eighty-six patients with right hemicolon cancer admitted to our hospital from May 2019 to May 2020 were selected as the research objects,and they were divided into an observation group of 43 cases and a control group of 43 cases by random drawing.The control group adopts the intermediate approach,and the observation group adopts the medial caudal approach combined with middle page-turning lymphadenectomy.The surgical recovery index,complication rate,serum tumor markers and survival index were compared between the two groups to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety.Results There were no significant differences between the two groups in the number of lymph nodes removed,the length of the intestinal tube removed,extubation,fluid feeding and hospitalization time,the incidence of postoperative complications(P＞0.05),but the operation time and intraoperative bleeding in the observation group were significantly lower,and the postoperative exhaust time was shorter(P＜0.05).The serum CA19-9 and CEA levels of the two groups after one year decreased,and the serum CA19-9 and CEA levels of the observation group were lower than those of the control group(P＜0.05).The disease-free progression period was prolonged in the observation group(P＜0.05),but there was no difference in survival time.Conclusion The medial caudal approach combined with the middle page-turning lymphadenectomy has higher clinical application value in the laparoscopic radical right hemicolectomy,which is conducive to shortening the operation time and postoperative exhaust time,reducing the amount of intraoperative bleeding and postoperative serum CA19-9 and CEA levels,and improving the disease-free progression period with high safety.

Objective To investigate the viability and safety of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy(LSG)based on the TJ point at the junction of the posterior gastric wall and the apex of the medial edge of the left diaphragm.Methods A retrospective analysis of 135 patients with obesity or obesity with metabolic syndrome who underwent LSG from January 2019 to January 2022 were divided into two groups according to the different free modes of fundogastric body.68 patients underwent surgery using the TPOL model LSG.A control group of 67 patients was treated with conventional LSG surgery.To analyze and compare the duration of operation,gastric fundus free time,intraoperative blood loss time,hospital stay time,postoperative gastric fistula,bleeding rate,and occurrence of gastroesophageal reflux disease(GERD)between the two groups.Results All patients successfully completed LSG surgery and were safely discharged.They were followed for a period of 12 to 36 months.the duration of operation for the study group was(56.13±10.56)minutes,while for the control group it was(62.45±12.74)minutes.The gastric fundus was freed in(6.34±4.16)minutes for the study group and(12.58±6.37)minutes for the control group.The duration of hospitalization was(3.84±0.42)days for the study group and(4.06±0.69)days for the control group.The intraoperative blood loss was(10.87±1.28)ml for the study group and(15.56±3.39)ml for the control group.The incidence of postoperative GERD was 5(7.35％)for the study group and 13(19.40％)for the control group.The differences between the two groups were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The decrease in excess weight at 12 months after surgery,as well as complications such as bleeding and gastric fistula,were not statistically significant(P＞0.05).Conclusion LSG(TPOL model)extends from the TJ point(the Tri-junction point where the gastric left mesangium,gastric posterior mesangium,and pancreatic mesangium meet)to the apex of the medial foot edge of the left diaphragm.LSG(TPOL model)can be efficiently and safely achieve tension-free anastomosis,resulting in a complete free gastric fundus.This method is feasible,and has clinical value for the standardized free gastric fundus of LSG.

ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy and safety of CalliSpheres microsphere-transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (CSM-TACE) versus conventional transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (cTACE) in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) through a meta-analysis. MethodsPubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang Data, and VIP were searched for all Chinese and English articles on the application of CSM-TACE and cTACE in HCC published up to the end of October, 2020. After quality assessment was performed for the articles included, RevMan 5.3 software provided by Cochrane Library was used for analysis. ResultsA total of 15 studies were included, with 1535 patients in total. This meta-analysis showed that compared with the patients receiving cTACE, the patients receiving CSM-TACE had significantly higher 1-year overall survival rate (odds ratio ［OR］=2.26, 95% confidence interval ［CI］: 1.63-3.13, P＜0.000 01), 2-year overall survival rate (OR=1.73, 95%CI: 1.20-2.50, P=0.003), and 2-year progression-free survival rate (OR=1.60, 95%CI: 1.05-2.43, P=0.03). In terms of safety, compared with the patients receiving cTACE, the patients receiving CSM-TACE had significantly lower incidence rates of postoperative vomiting (OR=0.65, 95%CI: 0.46-0.92, P=0.01), bone marrow suppression (OR=0.17, 95%CI: 0.05-0.54, P=0.003), and neutropenia (OR=0.18, 95%CI: 0.07-045, P=0.000 3), while there were no significant differences between the two groups of patients in postoperative pyrexia, abdominal pain, and ascites (all P＞0.05). ConclusionCSM-TACE has significant advantages in improving 1- and 2-year overall survival rates and 2-year progression-free survival rates and can significantly reduce the incidence rates of postoperative vomiting, bone marrow suppression, and neutropenia. Therefore, CSM-TACE is a safe and effective treatment method.
