OBJECTIVETo evaluate the clinical significance of low ligation of inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) and preservation of left colic artery in laparoscopic radical operation for rectal cancer.
METHODSClinical data of 103 rectal cancer patients undergoing laparoscopic radical operation in Ruijin Hospital from May 2015 to January 2016 were retrospectively analyzed, including 61 cases with preservation of left colic artery (low ligation group, LL group) and 42 cases without preservation of left colic artery (high ligation group, HL group). Clinical conditions during operation and after operation were compared between the two groups.
RESULTSAll the patients underwent operation successfully without transferring to laparotomy, intra-operative or post-operative death, and severe intra-operative or anesthetic complications. Age, gender, BMI, ASA score, tumor size and tumor location were not significantly different between the two groups. Four cases(9.5%) in HL group presented ischemic changes in colonic stump during operation, receiving additional colonic resection and no such ischemic changes were found in LL group (P=0.025). The number of harvested lymph node was 16.1±6.8 in HL group and 15.5±7.2 in LL group, number of harvest lymph node in the root of IMA was 4.2±1.7 in HL group with positive rate of 9.5%(4/42) and 4.3±1.7 in LL group with positive rate of 4.9%(3/61), both were not significantly different between the two groups. Lower margin was (2.2±1.4) cm in LL group and (2.8±1.7) cm in HL group, and difference was not significant as well(all P>0.05). There were no significant differences in terms of operation time, blood loss, post-operative complication, recovery of bowel movement and hospital stay. Median follow-up time was 4.5 months(2 to 10 months) and no long-term complications and local recurrence were found.
CONCLUSIONLow ligation of IMA with preservation of left colic artery in laparoscopic radical operation for rectal cancer can provide better blood supply for proximal colon and anastomosis, and can achieve same radical clearance of lymph nodes as high ligation without prolonged operation time, which is worth clinical promotion.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of irisin on ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) in rats and the relationship with expression of NOD-like receptor pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasomes.Methods:Thirty-six SPF-grade healthy adult male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 6-8 weeks, weighing 220-300 g, were divided into 3 groups ( n=12 each) using a random number table method: control group (group C), group VILI and irisin group (group I). All the groups underwent tracheotomy and intubation, group C kept spontaneous breathing for 4 h, and the animals were mechanically ventilated for 4 h in VILI and I groups.Irisin 1 μg/kg was injected via the tail vein at 30 min before tracheal intubation in group I, and the equal volume of normal saline mixture (normal saline∶phosphate buffer solution containing 5% trehalose=1∶9) were given in the other 2 groups via the tail vein.The rats were mechanically ventilated with the tidal volume of 20 ml/kg, respiratory rate 80 breaths/min, inspiratory/expiratory ratio 1∶1, inspired oxygen fraction ratio 21% and positive end-expiratory pressure 0.Blood samples from left femoral artery were collected before tracheal intubation and at the end of mechanical ventilation for detection of PaO 2.The animals were sacrificed and the lung tissue samples and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were then collected for examination of the pathological changes (under the light microscope), and for determination of wet to dry weight (W/D) ratio and the concentrations of total protein in BALF and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and IL-18 in BALF and serum (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in alveolar macrophages in BALF (by DCFH-DA) and the expression of NLRP3, apoptosis-associated speck-like protein (ASC) and caspase-1 protein and mRNA in lung tissues (by Western blot and by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction). The pathological changes of the lung were scored. Results:Compared with group C, PaO 2 was significantly decreased at the end of mechanical ventilation, lung injury score and W/D ratio were increased, concentration of total protein and ROS level in alveolar macrophages in BALF and concentrations of BALF, IL-1β and IL-18 in serum were increased, and the expression of NLRP3, ASC and caspase-1 protein and mRNA in lung tissues was up-regulated in group VILI and group I ( P<0.01). Compared with group VILI, PaO 2 was significantly increased at the end of mechanical ventilation, lung injury score and W/D ratio were decreased, concentration of total protein and ROS level in alveolar macrophages in BALF and concentrations of BALF, IL-1β and IL-18 in serum were decreased, and the expression of NLRP3, ASC and caspase-1 protein and mRNA in lung tissues was down-regulated in group I ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Irisin can reduce VILI, and the mechanism is related to inhibiting activation of NLRP3 inflammasome and reducing inflammatory response in rats.

Objective:To investigate the effect of irisin on pyroptosis in rats with ventilator-induced lung injury.Methods:Thirty-six healthy clean-grade male Sprague-Dawley rats, weighing 200-250 g, aged 6-8 weeks, were divided into 3 groups ( n=12 each) using a random number table method: control group (group C), ventilator-induced lung injury group (group V) and ventilator-induced lung injury plus irisin group (group V+ I). In group V+ I, irisin 1 μg/kg was injected via the tail vein before mechanical ventilation.The animals were mechanically ventilated (tidal volume of 40 ml/kg, respiratory rate 60 breaths/min, inspiratory/expiratory ratio 1∶2, positive end expiratory pressure 0 and inspired oxygen fraction ratio 21%.Blood samples were then taken from the femoral artery for blood gas analysis, and PaO 2 was recorded.Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was collected, the total protein concentrations in BALF were measured, and the concentrations of BALF and serum interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and IL-18 were measure by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.The lung tissues were obtained for determination of the pathological changes after HE staining which were scored, wet to dry weight (W/D) ratio, expression of pyroptosis-related proteins N-terminal gasdermin D (GSDMD-N) and caspase-1 protein and mRNA (by Western blot or using real-time polymerase chain reaction). Results:Compared with group C, the lung injury score and W/D ratio were significantly increased, PaO 2 and OI were decreased, the total protein concentrations in BALF, concentrations of IL-1β and IL-18 in BALF and serum were increased, and the expression of caspase-1 and GSDMD-N protein and mRNA was up-regulated in group V ( P<0.01). Compared with group V, the lung injury score and W/D ratio were significantly decreased, PaO 2 and OI were increased, the total protein concentrations in BALF, concentrations of serum IL-1β and IL-18 in BALF and serum were decreased, and the expression of caspase-1 and GSDMD-N protein and mRNA was down-regulated in group V+ I ( P<0.01). Conclusion:The mechanism by which irisin reduces ventilator-induced lung injury is probably related to inhibiting pyroptosis in rats.

Objective:
To investigate the clinical value of laparoscopic peritoneal dialysis catheter implantation in peritoneal chemotherapy for gastric cancer with peritoneal metastasis.
Methods:
From January 2019 to June 2019, the clinical data of 6 patients diagnosed as gastric cancer with peritoneal metastasis were retrospectively analyzed in the Gastrointestinal Surgery Department of Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine. Five were male and 1 was female. The median age was 69.5 (28-77) years. The median body mass index (BMI) was 22.8 (19.6-23.5). All procedures were performed under general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation. The patient′s body position and facility layout in the operating room were consistent with those of laparoscopic gastrectomy. The operator′s position: the main surgeon was located on the right side of the patient, the first assistant stood on the left side of the patient, and the scopist stood between the patient′s legs. Surgical procedure: (1) trocar location: three abdominal trocars was adopted, with one 12 mm umbilical port for the 30° laparoscope (point A). Location of the other two trocars was dependent on the procedure of exploration or biopsy as well as the two polyester cuff position of the peritoneal dialysis catheter: Usually one 5 mm port in the anterior midline 5 cm inferior to the umbilicus point was selected as point B to ensure that the distal end of the catheter could reach the Douglas pouch. The other 5 mm port was located in the right lower quadrant lateral to the umbilicus to establish the subcutaneous tunnel tract, and the proximal cuff was situated 2 cm away from the desired exit site (point C).(2) exploration of the abdominal cavity: a 30° laparoscope was inserted from 12 mm trocar below the umbilicus to explore the entire peritoneal cavity. The uterus and adnexa should be explored additionally for women. Once peritoneal metastasis was investigated and identified, primary laparoscopic peritoneal dialysis catheter implantation was performed so as to facilitate subsequent peritoneal chemotherapy. Ascites were collected for cytology in patients with ascites. (3) peritoneal dialysis catheter placement: the peritoneal dialysis catheter was introduced into the abdominal cavity from point A. Under the direct vision of laparoscopy, 2-0 absorbable ligature was reserved at the expected fixation point of the proximal cuff (point B) for the final knot closure. Non-traumatic graspers were used to pull the distal cuff of peritoneal dialysis catheter out of the abdominal cavity through point B. The 5-mm trocar was removed simultaneously, and the distal cuff was fixed between bilateral rectus sheaths at the anterior midline port site preperitoneally. To prevent subsequent ascites and chemotherapy fluid extravasation, the reserved crocheted wire was knotted. From point C the subcutaneous tunnel tract was created before the peritoneal steath towards the port site lateral to the umbilicus. Satisfactory catheter irrigation and outflow were then confirmed. Chemotherapy regimen after peritoneal dialysis catheterization: all patients began intraperitoneal chemotherapy on the second day after surgery. On the 1st and 8th day of each 3-weeks cycle, paclitaxel (20 mg/m2) was administered through peritoneal dialysis catheter, and paclitaxel (50 mg/m2) was injected intravenously. Meanwhile, S-1 was orally administered twice daily at a dose of 80 mg·m-2·d-1 for 14 consecutive days followed by 7-days rest. To observe the patients′ intraoperative and postoperative conditions.
Results:
All the procedures were performed successfully without intraoperative complications or conversion to laparotomy. No 30 day postoperative complications were observed. The median operative time was 33.5 (23-38) min. The median time to first flatus was 1(1-2) days, and the median postoperative hospital stay was 3 (3-4) days, without short-term complications within 30 days postoperatively. The last follow-up was up to July 10, 2019, and the patients were followed for 4(1-6) months. No ascites extravasation was observed and no death occurred in the 6 patients. There was no catheter obstruction or peritoneal fluid extravasation during and after chemotherapy.
Conclusion
Laparoscopic peritoneal dialysis catheter implantation was safe and feasible for patients with peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer. The abdominal exploration, tumor staging and the abdominal chemotherapy device implantation can be completed simultaneously, which could simplify the surgical approach, improve the quality of life for patients and further propose a new direction for the development of abdominal chemotherapy.

Objective:To investigate the application value of three-dimensional (3D) laparoscope in the transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 20 patients with middle and low rectal cancer who underwent TaTME in the Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine from June 2018 to October 2019 were collected. There were 15 males and 5 females, aged from 28 to 81 years, with a median age of 64 years. Of the 20 patients, 10 patients using 3D laparoscopic system for transanal approach of TaTME were divided into 3D group, and 10 patients using two-dimensional (2D) laparoscopic system for transanal approach of TaTME were divided into 2D group. Observation indicators: (1) intraoperative situations and postoperative recovery; (2) postoperative pathological examination; (3) follow-up. Follow-up was conducted by outpatient examination and telephone interview to detect survival of patients and recurrence and metastasis of tumors in patients up to April 2020. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M (range), and comparison between groups was analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the Fisher exact propability. Comparison of ordinal data was analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test. Results:(1) Intraoperative situations and postoperative recovery: patients in the two groups completed surgeries successfully, without tranversion to laparostomy from laparoscopic surgery, transversion to transabdominal surgery from transanal surgery, or intraoperative death. The cases with terminal ileostomy, cases with manual anstomosis or mechanical anastomosis (anastomotic methods), operation time, volume of intra-operative blood loss, duration of postoperative hospital stay, cases with anastomotic leakage or anastomotic hemorrahge (postoperative short-term complications), cases with anastomotic stenosis of the 3D group were 7, 4, 6, 150 minutes (range, 100-220 minutes), 50 mL (range, 30-100 mL), 8.5 days (range, 7.0-16.0 days), 2, 0, 1, respectively, versus 8, 5, 5, 180 minutes (range, 120-250 minutes), 100 mL (range, 30-200 mL), 9.5 days (range, 6.0-17.0 days), 1, 1, 1 of the 2D group. There was no significant difference in the terminal ileostomy, anastomotic methods, postoperative short-term complications, or anastomotic stenosis between the two groups ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, or duration of postoperative hospital stay between the two groups ( Z=1.909, 1.827, 0.687, P>0.05). Patients with short-term complications in the two groups were improved after conservative treatments. There was 1 patient with anastomotic stenosis in either group, and they were improved after endoscopic balloon dilatation. (2) Postoperative pathological examination: the maximum tumor diameter, distal margin of the tumor, the number of lymph nodes harvested, cases with cancer nodes in the mesentery, cases with complete mesentery or median complete mesentery (the integrity of mesentery), cases in stage Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ (postoperative pathological stage) of the 3D group were 3.8 cm (range, 1.8-5.0 cm), 1.0 cm (range, 0.5-2.5 cm), 14.5 (range, 6.0-19.0), 1, 9, 1, 4, 2, 4, respectively, versus 4.8 cm (range, 1.0-8.5 cm), 0.8 cm (range, 0.3-1.5 cm), 15.5 (range, 8.0-18.0), 1, 8, 2, 2, 4, 4 of the 2D group. There was no significant difference in the maximum tumor diameter, distal margin of the tumor, the number of lymph nodes harvested, the integrity of mesentery, or postoperative pathological stage between the two groups ( Z=1.673, 1.772, 0.038, 0.610, 0.482, P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the cases with cancer nodes in the mesentery between the two groups ( P>0.05). Patients in the two groups had negative distal margin and circumferential margin. (3) Follow-up: patients in the 3D group and 2D group were followed up for 11 months (range, 6-16 months) and 13 months (range, 6-21 months), respectively. During the follow-up, there was no local recurrence, distal metastasis, or tumor-related death. Conclusions:3D laparoscope applied in the TaTME can achieve similar clinical efficacy with 2D laparoscope, which may have a positive impact on the operation time and volume of intraoperative blood loss.

The clinical data of 165 patients with gastrointestinal malignant tumors who were admitted to the Ruijin Hospital of Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine between October 2018 and May 2019 were collected. There were 99 males and 66 females, aged from 28 to 86 years, with a median age of 63 years. There were 68 of 165 patients with gastric cancer and 97 with colorectal cancer. Sixteen patients with gastric cancer who underwent laparoscopic radical gastrectomy using the glasses-free 3D laparoscopy system were divided into glasses-free 3D gastric cancer group, and 52 patients with gastric cancer who underwent laparoscopic radical gastrectomy using the polarized glasses 3D laparoscopy system were divided into polarized glasses 3D gastric cancer group. Nineteen patients with colorectal cancer who underwent laparoscopic radical colectomy or proctectomy using the glasses-free 3D laparoscopy system were divided into glasses-free 3D colorectal cancer group, and 78 patients with colorectal cancer who underwent laparoscopic radical colectomy or proctectomy using the polarized glasses 3D laparoscopy system were divided into polarized glasses 3D colorectal cancer group. Observation indicators: (1) operative situations of patients with gastric cancer; (2) postoperative recovery of patients with gastric cancer; (3) postoperative pathological examination results of patients with gastric cancer; (4) operative situations of patients with colorectal cancer; (5) postoperative recovery of patients with colorectal cancer; (6) postoperative pathological examination results of patients with colorectal cancer; (7) follow-up. Follow-up was conducted by outpatient examination or telephone interview to detect complications and survival of patients up to the postoperative 30th day. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M ( P25, P75) or M (range), and comparison between groups was analyzed by the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were represented as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Results:(1) Operative situations of patients with gastric cancer: all the 68 gastric cancer patients received successfully laparoscopic radical gastrectomy, without intraoperative complication or conversion to laparotomy. Cases with distal gastrectomy or total gastrectomy(surgical methods) , operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss were 11, 5, 195 minutes(169 minutes, 214 minutes), 20 mL (10 mL, 90 mL) in patients of the glasses-free 3D gastric cancer group, and 31, 21, 196 minutes(173 minutes, 222 minutes), 40 mL(20 mL, 100 mL) in patients of the polarized glasses 3D gastric cancer group, with no significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=0.432, Z=-0.362, -1.065, P>0.05). (2) Postoperative recovery of patients with gastric cancer: the time to first flatus, time to initial semi-fluid diet intake, duration of postoperative hospital stay were 2 days(2 days, 3 days), 6 days(5 days, 7 days), 10 days(9 days, 14 days) in patients of the glasses-free 3D gastric cancer group, and 2 days(2 days, 3 days), 6 days(5 days, 6 days), 11 days(9 days, 14 days) in patients of the polarized glasses 3D gastric cancer group, with no significant difference between the two groups ( Z=-0.163, -1.870, -0.570, P>0.05). The postoperative complication incidence of the glasses-free 3D gastric cancer group was 12.5%(2/16), including 1 case with duodenal stump fistula, 1 case with anastomotic bleeding. The postoperative complication incidence of the polarized glasses 3D gastric cancer group was 17.3%(9/52), including 2 cases with duodenal stump fistula, 2 cases with delayed gastric emptying, 1 case with pulmonary infection, 1 case with abdominal bleeding, 1 case with anastomotic leakage, 1 case with chylous fistula, 1 case with intestinal obstruction. All the patients with complications were cured after symptomatic supportive treatment. There was no significant difference in the complication incidence between the two groups ( χ2=0.209, P>0.05). (3) Postoperative pathological examination results of patients with gastric cancer: the tumor diameter, cases in stage T1, T2, T3, T4 (tumor T staging), cases with vascular invasion, cases with nerve invasion, cases with tumor nodule, cases in stage N0, N1, N2, N3 (tumor N staging), the number of positive lymph node, the number of lymph node dissected, cases with qualified lymph node dissected, cases in stage Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, Ⅳ (TNM clinical staging) were 3.0 cm(2.0 cm, 5.0 cm), 5, 3, 1, 7, 8, 5, 2, 3, 2, 4, 7, 6(1, 15), 28(22, 43), 15, 4, 3, 9, 0 in patients of the glasses-free 3D gastric cancer group, and 3.5 cm(2.0 cm, 6.0 cm), 13, 10, 4, 25, 19, 23, 2, 26, 6, 7, 13, 1(0, 7), 29(21, 39), 43, 21, 10, 20, 1 in patients of the polarized glasses 3D gastric cancer group. There was no significant difference in the tumor diameter, tumor T staging, cases with vascular invasion, cases with nerve invasion, cases with tumor nodule, the number of lymph node dissected, cases with qualified lymph node dissected, TNM clinical staging between the two groups ( Z=-0.570, -0.434, χ2 =0.926, 0.851, 1.655, Z=-0.579, χ2=1.193, Z=-1.134, P>0.05). There were significant differences in the tumor N staging and the number of positive lymph node between the two groups ( Z=-2.167, -2.283, P<0.05). (4) Operative situations of patients with colorectal cancer: all the 97 colorectal cancer patients received successfully laparoscopic radical colectomy or proctectomy, without intraoperative complications or conversion to laparotomy. Cases with radical colectomy or proctectomy (surgical methods), operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss were 7, 12, 132 minutes(97 minutes, 156 minutes), 20 mL(10 mL, 50 mL) in patients of the glasses-free 3D colorectal cancer group, and 40, 38, 124 minutes(110 minutes, 159 minutes), 25 mL(15 mL, 65 mL) in patients of the polarized glasses 3D colorectal cancer group, with no significant difference between the two groups ( χ2 =1.276, Z=-0.141, -0.863, P>0.05). (5) Postoperative recovery of patients with colorectal cancer: the time to first flatus, time to initial semi-fluid diet intake, duration of postoperative hospital stay were 2 days(1 days, 3 days), 5 days(5 days, 6 days), 8 days(7 days, 10 days) in patients of the glasses-free 3D colorectal cancer group, and 2 days(1 days, 3 days), 5 days(4 days, 6 days), 8 days(6 days, 10 days) in patients of the polarized glasses 3D colorectal cancer group, with no significant difference between the two groups ( Z=-0.678, -1.751, -1.674, P>0.05). The complication incidence of the glasses-free 3D colorectal cancer group was 15.8%(3/19), including 1 case with anastomotic leakage after low anterior proctectomy, 1 case with incision infection, 1 case with urinary tract infection. The complication incidence of the polarized glasses 3D colorectal cancer group was 14.1%(11/78), including 3 cases with anastomotic leakage after low anterior proctectomy, 2 cases with intestinal obstruction, 2 cases with urinary tract infection, 2 cases with incision infection, 1 case with anastomotic bleeding, 1 case with pulmonary infection. One of the 3 cases with anastomotic leakage after low anterior proctectomy in the polarized glasses 3D colorectal cancer group was cured after remedial terminal ileostomy. The other patients with complications were cured after symptomatic supportive treatment. There was no significant difference in the complication incidence between the two groups ( χ2=0.035, P>0.05). (6) Postoperative pathological examination results of patients with colorectal cancer: the tumor diameter, cases in stage T1, T2, T3, T4 (tumor T staging), cases with vascular invasion, cases with nerve invasion, cases with tumor nodule, cases in stage N0, N1-N2 (tumor N staging), the number of positive lymph node, the number of lymph node dissected, cases with qualified lymph node dissected, cases in stage Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, Ⅳ (TNM clinical staging) were 5.0 cm(3.0 cm, 6.0 cm), 3, 2, 7, 7, 3, 2, 1, 8, 11, 0(0, 4), 17(14, 23), 18, 2, 3, 12, 2 in patients of the glasses-free 3D colorectal cancer group, and 4.0 cm(3.0 cm, 5.0 cm), 7, 16, 43, 12, 14, 12, 7, 46, 32, 0(0, 1), 16(13, 19), 74, 14, 17, 40, 7 in patients of the polarized glasses 3D colorectal cancer group, with no significant difference between the two groups ( Z=-0.768, -1.135, χ2 =0.049, 0.292, 0.278, 1.762, Z=-0.694, -1.349, χ2=0.001, Z=-1.011, P>0.05). (7) Follow-up: 165 patients received follow-up, with out short-term reoperation or postoperative death in the postoperative 30 days. Conclusion:There is no significant difference in the efficacy between glasses-free 3D laparoscopic surgery and polarized glasses 3D laparoscopic surgery for radical resection of gastrointestinal malignant tumors, of which the clinical value requires further study.
