ObjectiveTo explore the preventive and therapeutic effects of Jianpi Bushen prescription （JBP） on hematopoiesis and immune system damage in tumor patients after radiotherapy. MethodSixty-four patients diagnosed with tumors of qi and blood deficiency syndrome， who received radiotherapy for the first time at the department of oncology and radiotherapy of Central Theater General Hospital of PLA from January 2023 to December 2023， were enrolled and randomly divided into the JBP combined with radiotherapy group （observation group） and the radiotherapy alone group （control group） at a ratio of 1∶1， with 32 patients in each group. The clinical efficacy of Western medicine， traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndrome efficacy， TCM syndrome scores， blood routine tests， immunological indicators， cytokines， and Karnofsky Performance Status （KPS） scores were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. Adverse reactions during the treatment process were observed to assess the safety of the treatment. ResultA total of 61 patients were ultimately included in this study， with 29 patients in the observation group and 32 in the control group. Compared with pre-treatment levels， the observation group showed significant reductions in the primary and secondary symptoms of qi and blood deficiency syndrome， total symptom score， peripheral blood white blood cell count （WBC）， red blood cell count （RBC）， hemoglobin （HGB）， blood platelet （PLT）， lymphocyte （LYM）， CD3⁺， CD4⁺， CD4⁺/CD8⁺ ratio， interleukin （IL）-4， and IL-10 levels after treatment （P<0.05，P<0.01）.Meanwhile，the levels of peripheral blood CD8⁺，IL-6，interferon （IFN）-γ，tumor necrosis factor （TNF）-α，IL-17， and KPS scores significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. In the control group， significant reductions were also observed in the primary symptoms of qi and blood deficiency syndrome， total symptom score， peripheral blood WBC， RBC， HGB， PLT， LYM， CD3⁺， CD4⁺， CD4⁺/CD8⁺ ratio， IL-4， IL-10， and IL-17 levels （P<0.05， P<0.01）， along with significant increases in peripheral blood CD8⁺， IL-6， IFN-γ， TNF-α， and KPS scores （P<0.05， P<0.01）. After treatment， the total effective rate of TCM syndrome in the observation group was 86.2% （26/29）， ， higher than 50.0% （22/32） in the control group （χ² = 16.543， P<0.01）. The total clinical remission rate in the observation group was 51.7% （15/29）， higher than 25.0% （8/32） in the control group （χ² = 9.159， P<0.05）. Compared with the control group after treatment， the observation group had higher levels of peripheral blood WBC， RBC， HGB， PLT， LYM， CD3⁺， CD4⁺， CD4⁺/CD8⁺ ratio， IL-4， IL-10， and KPS scores （P<0.05）， and lower levels of peripheral blood CD8⁺， IL-6， IFN-γ， TNF-α， and IL-17 （P<0.05）. The most common adverse events in both groups were bone marrow suppression， radiation dermatitis， radiation esophagitis， nausea， and vomiting. The incidence of bone marrow suppression， nausea， and vomiting in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group （P<0.05）. ConclusionJBP can effectively improve the clinical efficacy in tumor patients undergoing radiotherapy， alleviate symptoms of qi and blood deficiency， slow down the reduction rate of peripheral blood WBC， RBC， HGB， PLT， and LYM levels， improve hematopoietic function， slow down the reduction rate of peripheral blood CD3⁺ T cells， CD4⁺ T cells， CD4⁺/CD8⁺ ratio， and cytokines IL-4 and IL-10， enhance the immunity of tumor patients， reduce the expression of cytokines IFN-γ， IL-6， IL-17， and TNF-α， alleviate inflammatory reactions， and reduce the occurrence of post-radiotherapy adverse reactions， thus demonstrating high clinical application value.

Objective: The aim of the current study is to compare the short-term clinical outcomes between Billroth-I reconstruction using an overlap method and delta-shaped anastomosis in totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (TLDG). Method: A retrospective cohort study was performed. The following inclusion criteria were applied: (1) Preoperative gastroscopy and CT confirmed that the tumor is located in the antrum of the stomach, and the biopsy suggested adenocarcinoma; (2) Chest, abdomen and pelvis enhanced CT showed no evidence of distant metastasis; (3) Preoperative gastric reconstruction CT or endoscopic ultrasonography suggested that the clinical stage of the tumor is stage I-III. (4) During the operation, the tumor position was confirmed to be located in the antrum of the stomach by nanocarbon injection or gastroscope; (5) Complete laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for distal gastrectomy, and the gastrointestinal reconstruction was performed by delta-shaped anastomosis or overlap anastomosis. And the following exclusion criteria were applied: (1) History of gastric surgery; (2) Patients who cannot tolerate laparoscopic surgery because of comorbidities. Finally, data on 43 consecutive patients who underwent TLDG with Billroth-I reconstruction between January 2016 and November 2018 in Peking Union Medical College Hospital were retrospectively reviewed. Patients were divided into those who underwent Billroth-I reconstruction using an overlap method (n=20) or using delta-shaped anastomosis (n=23). The demographic and clinical characteristics and perioperative data of the two groups were analyzed. Measurement data that conformed to the normal distribution were expressed as the mean ± s, and differences between groups were compared using Student′s t-test; comparisons between the counting data groups were performed using the χ² test or the continuously corrected χ² test. Results: The demographic and clinical characteristics were similar between the delta-shaped group and the overlap group (P>0.05). There was no significant difference between groups regarding operation time [(185.9±22.8) minutes vs. (184.0±25.8) minutes, t=0.260, P=0.796], blood loss [(50.9±36.0) ml vs. (47.0±30.8) ml, t=0.375, P=0.709], number of stapler reloads used for anastomosis (5.1±0.3 vs. 5.2±0.6, t=-0.465, P=0.651), time to flatus [(3.3±0.9) days vs. (3.6±0.9) days, t=-1.067, P=0.292) and postoperative hospitalization [(8.8±3.1) days vs. (10.4±3.8) days,t=-1.494, P=0.143]. As for the delta-shaped group and the overlap group, the anastomotic leakage rate was 4.3% (1/23) and 0 (χ²=0.000, P=1.000), respectively. The incidence of anastomotic bleeding was 4.3% (1/23) and 5.0% (1/20) (χ²=0.000, P=1.000), while the incidence of intra-abdominal hemorrhage was 4.3% (1/23) and 0 (χ²=0.000, P=1.000). The incidence of gastric emptying disorders was 4.3% (1/23) and 30.0% (6/20), respectively (χ²=3.454, P=0.063). All complications were cured after conservative treatment or symptomatic treatment. Conclusion The overlap method for Billroth-I reconstruction is safe and feasible.

Objective To investigate the advantages and disadvantages of transanal total mesorectal excision with laparoscopic assisted for min-low rectal cancer.Methods Retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 38 patients with min-low rectal cancer who undement laparoscopically assisted transanal total anorectal rectal cancer from November 2014 to May 2018 in the Department of General Surgery,Peking Union Medical College Hospital,Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College.The main outcome measures included gender,BMI,the operating time,intra-operative blood loss,the intraand post-operative complication rate,the distal resection margin length and the circumferential resection margin status of the pathological specimen,the number of lymph nodes acquisitions,as well as the postoperative average hospitalization time.Results The surgery was completed smoothly for all patients in this studying,with no conversion to open surgery.Among all the 38 patients,there were 26 (68.4％) male cases and 12(31.6％) female cases,and 25 cases were with a body mass index (BMI) over 24 kg/m2.The average operating time was (175.2 ± 37.6) minutes.The average intra-operative blood loss was (63.9 ± 42.7) ml.The complications included 1 case of intra-operative presacral venous hemorrhage,and 6 cases of post-operative anastomotic leak (15.8％).There were 18 cases happened perioperative complications,and the rate was 47.4％.The average distance from the distal resection margin to the lower end of the tumor was (2.1 ± 0.4) cm.There were 34 cases of complete mesorectal excision.The average number of lymph nodes retrieved was 14.2 ± 4.5.The average postoperative hospital stay was (9.8 ±5.9) days.Conclusion Transanal total mesorectal excisionwithlaparoscopic-assisted formid-lowrectal cancer can more accurately ensure adequate distal margin and mesorectal integrity.

OBJECTIVETo compare the difference of intra-abdominal infection between intracorporeal anastomosis (IA) and extracorporeal anastomosis (EA) in patients undergoing laparoscopic right hemicolectomy within postoperative 30 days.

METHODSClinical date of right colon cancer patients undergoing laparoscopic right hemicolectomy at the Department of Colorectal Surgery, PUMCH from January 1st, 2013 to October 31st, 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients with stage IV cancers which could not be radically resected, emergency operation and conversion to open surgery were excluded. The intracorporeal anastomosis and extracorporeal anastomosis were compared in the items of operation time, postoperative infection and postoperative hospital stay.

RESULTSA total of 194 patients were enrolled in the study, including 73 patients with IA and 121 patients with EA. No significant differences were found in gender, age, previous operation history, tumor site and T stage of the tumor between two groups (all P>0.05). There were also no significant differences in mean operative time (162.4 minutes vs. 167.7 minutes, P=0.257), time to first flatus (3.3 days vs. 3.4 days, P=0.744), number of harvested lymph nodes (30.3 nodes vs. 33.8 nodes, P=0.071) and postoperative hospital stay (7 days vs. 7 days, P=0.067) between two groups. The incidence of intra-abdominal infection in patients with IA was significantly higher than that in those with EA [13.7%(10/73) vs. 1.7%(2/121), P=0.001], while the differences of the incidence of wound infection [1.4%(1/73) vs. 3.3%(4/121), P=0.652], respiratory infection [1.4%(1/73) vs. 3.3%(4/121), P=0.652] and urinary tract infection [2.7%(2/73) vs. 0.8%(1/121), P=0.558] were not significant.

CONCLUSIONCompared with EA, IA may increase the risk of intra-abdominal infection in patients undergoing laparoscopic right hemicolectomy.

Objective: To explore the effect of unfavorable histological features on the clinical outcomes of patients receiving radical resection of colorectal cancer. Methods: A retrospective analysis of patients with colorectal cancer who received radical surgery between January 2013 and December 2015 at Department of General Surgery, Peking Union Medical College Hospital was performed. The impact of unfavorable histological features on the oncological outcomes of patients with lymph node-negative colorectal cancer were analyzed.A total of 167 patients were enrolled, including 98 males and 69 females with age of (63.6±11.6) years. Observation indicators included age, T stage, lymphovascular invasion, perineural invasion, tumor deposits, number of lymph node dissection, degree of differentiation, tissue type, and circumferential margin. Univariate analysis was performed with χ² test and multivariate analysis was performed with Cox regression model. Results: Univariate analysis showed that positive circumferential margins (CRM), tumor deposits and age were associated with disease free survival (DFS) rate; positive CRM, age, tumor deposits, and lymph nodes dissection less than 12 were significantly associated with overall survival (OS) rate (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that over 70 years of age (HR=1.053, 95% CI: 1.013 to 1.095, P=0.009), poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma (HR=7.572, 95%CI: 1.815 to 31.587, P=0.005), tumor deposits (HR=4.711, 95% CI: 1.809 to 12.264, P=0.002), mucinous adenocarcinoma (HR=3.063, 95% CI: 1.003 to 9.354, P=0.049), lymphovascular invasion (HR=2.885, 95% CI: 1.062 to 7.832, P=0.038), and nerve infiltration (HR=6.610, 95% CI: 1.037 to 42.122, P=0.046) were adverse prognostic factors of DFS rate; poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma (HR=12.200, 95% CI: 1.985 to 74.972, P=0.007), tumor nodules (HR=5.379, 95% CI: 1.636 to 17.685, P=0.006), over 70 years of age (HR=1.062, 95% CI: 1.013 to 1.114, P=0.013), and perineural invasion (HR=8.043, 95% CI: 1.026 to 63.055, P=0.047) were adverse prognostic factors of OS rate. There was no significant difference in the 3-year DFS rate and 3-year OS rate between T1-2 group and T3-4 group (P>0.05). Conclusion Over 70 years of age, poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma, mucinous adenocarcinoma, tumor nodules, lymphovascular invasion, and perineural invasion are independent adverse prognostic factors of lymph node-negative colorectal cancer.

Objective: To analyze the Clavien-Dindo classification of complications after right hemicolectomy and to explore the prognosis factors for postoperative complications. Methods: The retrospective case-control study was adopted. The clinical data of 176 patients who underwent right hemicolectomy at Department of General Surgery, Peking Union Medical College Hospital from October 2016 to February 2018 were collected. There were 95 male and 81 female patients with age of (62.4±12.7) years. The Clavien-Dindo classification was used for postoperative complications. Univariate and multivariate analysis were used to analyze the independent prognosis factors of complications after right colon resection. Results: Of the 176 patients, 2 patients had intraoperative complications (1.1%) and 39 patients had postoperative complications (22.2%), of which 10 cases had more than two complications, with a total of 53 complications. The proportions of Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ complications were 41.5% (22/53), 49.1% (26/53), 7.5% (4/53), and 1.9%(1/53). Postoperative complications were associated with age, smoking history of the last 1 year, combined organ resection, lymph node dissection, intracorporeal anastomosis, and preoperative blood AST and Ca levels (all P<0.05). The results of multivariate analysis showed that intracorporeal anastomosis (OR=5.62, 95% CI: 2.46 to 12.85, P=0.00), preoperative blood AST (OR=-0.009, 95% CI: -0.018 to 0.000, P=0.04) and Ca (OR=0.51, 95% CI: 0.08 to 0.95, P=0.02) levels were independent prognosis factors affecting complications after right hemicolectomy. Conclusions Complications of right hemicolectomy were mainly Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅰ and Ⅱ. Laparoscopic intracorporeal anastomosis should be carefully chosen, which may increase postoperative complications.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics and the therapeutic effects of signet ring cell carcinoma (SRCC) of rectum and sigmoid colon.Methods:Clinical data and the follow-up information of 29 SRCC patients treated in our tertiary care center from 2008 to 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. The clinicopathological features, diagnostic and therapeutic effects, and the prognostic outcomes were analyzed.Results:Among the 29 patients, 17 were male, 12 were female. The average age was (48.7±14.3) years. Colonoscopy revealed the features of diffuse circumferential thickening of the bowel wall in 20/29 cases (69.0%), while in 9/29 cases (31.0%), endoscopic biopsies showed false negative results. Twenty-five% (4/16) and 17.6% (3/17) lesions were misdiagnosed as the inflammatory changes by endoscopic rectal ultrasonography exam and rectal MRI scan, respectively. Thirteen of the 29 patients received the neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NCRT), 27 patients underwent the radical resection surgeries, and 8 underwent the postoperative radiotherapy. With a median follow-up of 38.5 (3.5-87.0) months, the cumulative 3-years overall survival (OS) rate was 54.0%, and the cumulative 3-years disease-free survival (DFS) rate was 43.0%. The OS rates of patients treated with or without NCRT (non-NCRT) were 46.2% and 69.2%, respectively, without significant difference ( P>0.05). The DFS rates of patients treated with or without NCRT were 45.8% and 39.2%, respectively, without significant difference ( P>0.05). Parameters including age younger than 40 years and tumor size larger than 5 cm were independent potential risk factors for shortened OS ( P<0.05). Conclusions:SRCC of the rectum and sigmoid colon is a rare malignant tumor with special clinical manifestations. It is younger-onset, highly malignant and with very poor prognosis. Therefore, in-depth researches with focus upon the progress of molecular oncology are urgently needed to substantially improve the therapeutic effect of this disease.
