【Objective】To create a TCM quality of life(QOL)scale for knee osteoarthritis(OA)and to evaluate QOL of knee OA patients treated by warming collaterals and activating blood therapy.【Methods】QOL of 32 patients with knee OA was evaluated by the created TCM QOL scale and SF-36 questionnaire respectively before and after collaterals-warming and blood-activating treatment by Jingu Tongxiao Pill.【Results】The scoring results of TCM QOL scale showed that syndrome manifestation scoring,activities of daily life(ADL)scoring and comprehensive scoring were decreased after treatment(P

Objective To evaluate the surgical effect of laparoscopic anterior resection of rectal carcinoma with or without the left colic artery.Methods Through computer searching PubMed,Cochrane Library,Embase,WanFang Date and CNIK Date.Handsearching the Gray literature simultaneously.The randomized controlled trails and clinical controlled trials comparing low ligation with high ligation the inferior mesenteric artery in laparoscopic anterior resection of rectal carcinoma were colected.Data were screened,extracted and evaluated by two reviewers independently.Meta-analyses were conducted using the sofeware STATE12.0.The standardized mean difference were calculated for continuous data and odds ratio for dichotomous and the point estimates of each effect quantity and 95％ confidence interval were calculated.TheI2 test was used to test the heterogeneity of the inchuded literature:if the heterogeneity was small,the fixed effects model was adopted.otherwise,the random effects models was adopted and explored the heterogeneity by sensitivity analysis or subgroup analysis.Results Forteen articles including 15 researches were met the selection criteria.The Meta-analyses showed that the grope of low ligation had lower rate of anastomotic fistula (OR =0.394,95 ％ CI:0.251-0.616,P =0.000) and longer opration time (SMD =0.361,95％CI:0.242-0.480,P =0.000).There is no statistical differences in the number of lymph node dissection besides the root of IMA (SMD =-0.017,95％ CI:-0.130-0.097,P =0.772) intraoperative biood loss (SMD =0.083,95 ％ CI:-0.048-0.214,P =0.213).Conclusions In spite of reserved the left colic artery had longer operation time it can reducedrate of anastomotic fistula effectively and there is no statistical differences in the number of lymph node dissection besides the root of IMA,intraoperative blood loss.It is possible to promote the use of reserved the left colic artery in laparoscopic anterior resection of rectal carcinoma.

Objective To systematically evaluate the diagnostic value of optical imaging combined with indocyanine green (ICG)?guided sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy in gastric cancer, and to identify potential factors that would influence diagnostic accuracy. Methods Study was carried out by searching the electronic database of PubMed, Embase, Medline, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library with keywords as"gastric/stomach"and"cancer/carcinoma/tumor/tumour/adenocarcinoma/neoplasm"and"sentinel lymph node"and"near?infrared/NIR or fluorescent imaging"and"indocyanine green/ICG". Literature inclusion criteria: (1) gastric cancer clinical stage was cT0?3; (2) clinical stage determined by at least 2 kinds of imaging modalities; (3) optical imaging (near?infrared or fluorescence imaging) combined with ICG?guided SLN biopsy; (4) prospective study to predict lymph node metastasis; (5) intraoperative or postoperative pathology for all lymph nodes removed; (6) patients number in the literature >10 cases. Exclusion criteria: (1) patients with a history of ICG allergy or chemoradiotherapy; (2) previous history of endoscopic mucosal resection or endoscopic submucosal dissection; (3) patients with a variety of gastrointestinal tumor; (4) case reports, conference abstracts, clinical guidelines, editorials, reviews, meta?analysis and correspondence letters; (5) in vitro or animal experiments; (6) insufficient diagnostic efficacy data. The meta?analysis was performed in the Stata12.0 software using the "bivariate mixed?effects model"combined with the "midas" command to pool the data. Information such as true positive value, false positive value, false negative value, and true negative value of each included articles were extracted. The literature quality assessment map was drawn to describe the overall quality of the articles; the heterogeneity analysis was performed with the forest map, with P<0.01 considered as statistical significance; the funnel plot was used to describe publication bias, with P<0.1 considered as statistically significant. Area under curve (AUC) of summary receiver operator characteristic (SROC) was used to describe the diagnostic accuracy and the AUC closer to 1 indicated higher diagnostic accuracy. If there was heterogeneity (I2>50%) among studies, regression analysis and subgroup analysis were performed. P<0.05 was considered as statistically significant. Results A total of 15 studies (1020 patients) were included. The optical imaging contained near?infrared (NIR) and fluorescent imaging (FI). The diagnostic value of optical imaging combined with ICG?guided SLN biopsy in gastric cancer was as follows: the pooled sensitivity (Sen) was 0.95 (95% CI:0.82 to 0.99), specificity (Spe) was 1.00 (95% CI: 0.92 to 1.00), positive likelihood ratio (PLR) was 30.39 (95% CI: 9.14 to 101.06), negative likelihood ratio (NLR) was 0.05 (95% CI:0.01 to 0.20), diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) was 225.54 (95% CI: 88.81 to 572.77), AUC was 1.00 (95% CI: 0.99 to 1.00), threshold value was sensitivity=0.95 (95% CI: 0.82 to 0.99) and specificity=1.00 (95% CI: 0.92 to 1.00). Deeks method revealed DOR funnel plot of SLN biopsy was not asymmetrical obviously with significant difference (P=0.01), which indicated remarkable publishing bias. Meta?subgroup analysis showed that compared to FI, NIR imaging had higher sensitivity (0.98 vs. 0.73); compared to 0 minutes, optical imaging performed 20 minutes after ICG injection had higher sensitivity (0.98 vs. 0.70); compared to mean detected number of SLN of 4, mean detected number≥4 had higher sensitivity (0.96 vs. 0.68); compared to HE stain, immunohistochemistry+HE had higher sensitivity (0.99 vs. 0.84); compared to subserous injection of ICG, submucosa injection of ICG had higher sensitivity (0.98 vs. 0.40); compared to injection of 5 g/L ICG, 0.5 g/L and 0.05 g/L had higher sensitivity (0.98 vs. 0.83); compared to cT2?3 tumor, early stage (cT1) tumor had higher sensitivity (0.96 vs. 0.72); compared to ≤ enrolled 26 cases in the study, > 26 cases had higher sensitivity (0.96 vs. 0.65); compared to papers before 2010, papers after 2010 had higher sensitivity (0.97 vs. 0.81); whose differences were all significant. Sensitivity differences between mean tumor diameter of ≤30 cm and >30 cm, open surgery and laparoscopic surgery, lymph node regional dissection and retrieved dissection were not significant (all P>0.05). Conclusions Optical imaging combined with ICG? guided SLN biopsy is clinically feasible, and especially suitable for early gastric cancer. However, the ICG being used in current studies may be overdosed. Higher sensitivity may be achieved from NIR imaging when compared with FI method.
