Objective:To compare the value of new gastric cancer screening scoring system and serum pepsinogen (PG) combined with gastrin-17 (G-17) (new ABC method) in screening gastric cancer and precancerous lesions.Methods:A total of 576 patients were enrolled after the examination of endoscopy at Endoscopy Center,Department of Gastroenterology,from December 2017 to December 2019. There were 275 males and 301 females with an age of 40-72 (52±10) years. According to the new ABC method and the new gastric cancer screening scoring system, the population was divided into three groups according to age,gender,serum helicobacter pylori antibody test, PG Ⅰ/PG Ⅱ(PGR) and G-17 before endoscopy. The detection rates of gastric cancer and atrophic gastritis by two different methods were analyzed and the value in screening gastric cancer and precancerous lesions were evaluated. Statistical analysis was accomplished by Chi-square test and Gamma coefficient analysis. Results:A total of 576 patients were enrolled. According to the new ABC method, 382 patients were classified into low-risk group, 170 patients into middle-risk group and 24 patients into high-risk group, respectively. In the new ABC method, 1 case of gastric cancer (0.3%) was detected in low-risk group, 8 cases (4.7%) in middle-risk group and 3 cases (12.5%) in high-risk group. As for atrophic gastritis, 89 cases (23.3%) was detected in low-risk group, 94 cases (55.3%) in middle-risk group and 18 cases (75.0%) in high-risk group. According to the new gastric cancer screening scoring system, 336 patients were classified into low-risk group, 205 patients into middle-risk group and 35 patients into high-risk group, respectively. One case of gastric cancer (0.3%) was detected in low-risk group, 6 cases (2.9%) in middle-risk group and 5 cases (14.3%) in high-risk group. As for atrophic gastritis, 41 cases (12.2%) were detected in low-risk group, 134 cases (65.4%) in middle-risk group and 26 cases (74.3%) in high-risk group. In this two methods, the prevalence of gastric cancer increased according to the disease stage ( χ2 =22.509, P<0.01; χ2=24.156, P<0.01); in terms of atrophic gastritis, the detection rate of the new screening scoring system in the low-risk group was significantly lower than that in the new ABC method ( χ2=14.844, P<0.01), but higher in the middle-risk group ( χ2=3.955, P=0.047). Gamma coefficient test showed that there were strong correlations between gastroscopy pathology and classification grade of both methods ( P<0.01). Conclusions:Both methods are suitable for screening gastric cancer and precancerous lesions, and the new scoring system may be more valuable in screening gastric cancer and precancerous lesions.

Objective:To evaluate the new scoring system for gastric cancer screening and risk assessment of gastric precancerous lesions.Methods:A total of 442 patients who underwent endoscopy due to stomach discomfort at the First Hospital of Jiaxing from March 2018 to September 2019 were enrolled. The patients were divided into three groups based on the new scoring system for gastric cancer screening before endoscopy: low-risk group (0-11 points), median-risk group (12-16 points) and high-risk group (17-23 points). The detection rates of gastric cancer and atrophic gastritis in three groups were analyzed. According to the range or degree of atrophy or intestinal metaplasia, patients were divided into five groups of stage 0 to Ⅳ based on the operative link for gastritis assessment (OLGA) or operative link for gastritis intestinal metaplasia (OLGIM). The correlation between the new gastric cancer screening scoring system and OLGA or OLGIM staging system were evaluated.Results:Among 442 patients, 211 were assigned to low-risk group, 207 median-risk group and 24 high-risk group according to the new scoring system. For OLGA staging system, there were 241 cases of stage-0, 105 of stage-Ⅰ, 58 stage-Ⅱ, 27 stage-Ⅲ and 11 stage-Ⅳ. For OLGIM staging system, there were 224 cases of stage-0, 113 stage-Ⅰ, 61 stage-Ⅱ, 31 stage-Ⅲ and 13 stage-Ⅳ. The pepsinogen (PG) Ⅰ and pepsinogen ratio (PGR) levels had differences among different OLGA stages ( F=2.844, P=0.027; F=5.435, P=0.001), and these two variables at Stage-Ⅲ and Ⅳ were significantly lower than three other OLGA stages (all P<0.001). The PGR level had differences among different OLGIM stages ( F=3.887, P=0.008), which was significantly lower at Stage-Ⅳ than at other OLGIM stages (all P<0.001). Gamma coefficient analysis and Kendall′s tau-b analysis showed significant correlations between OLGA/OLGIM staging system and new gastric cancer screening scoring system ( P<0.001). Conclusion:The new scoring system is reliable for gastric cancer screening, and is closely linked with OLGA/OLGIM staging system in the risk assessment of gastric precancerous lesions.

Objective To explore the value of SpyGlass (direct visualization system) guided laser lithotripsy for large bile duct stones in ERCP.Methods Thirty-three patients with large bile duct stones were randomly assigned to two groups: SpyGlass guided laser lithotripsy group (n =16) and mechanical lithotripsy group (n =17).All patients underwent ERCP procedures for stones extraction.The success rate of complete stone removal, the early complication rate related to the procedure and procedure time were compared between the two groups.Results The success rate of complete stone removal in SpyGlass guided laser lithotripsy group was higher than that of the mechanical lithotripsy group [75.0％ (12/16) VS 41.2％ (7/17) ,P ＜ 0.05].There were no significant differences between two groups in either procedure time [(51.6 ± 18.6) min VS (60.4 ± 12.3) min, P ＞ 0.05] or the early complication rate related to the procedure (18.8％ VS 5.9％ ,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion SpyGlass guided laser lithotripsy is safe and effective for large bile duct stones.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Spyglass single-operator cholangioscopy-guided laser lithotripsy for removing difficult bile duct stones.Methods A total of 39 patients with difficult bile duct stones were divided into Spyglass single-operator cholangioscopy-guided group (n =20) and fluoroscopy guided group (n =19) to receive corresponding treatments.The success rates of complete stone removal and the complication rates related to the procedure were compared between the two groups.Results There was no significant difference in success rate of complete stone removal between Spyglass single-operator cholangioscopy-guided group(17/20, 85.0％) and the fluoroscopy guided group(16/19, 84.2％ ,P =0.661) or in rates of procedure related complication (acute pancreatitis P =0.695, infection of bile duct P =1.000).Conclusion Both Spyglass single-operator cholangioscopy-guided laser lithotripsy and fluoroscopy are safe and effective.

Allergic diseases such as allergic asthma, allergic der-matitis, allergic rhinitis, are polygenic diseases, involving the interaction between the environment, genes and immunity. In the past few decades, the incidence rate of allergic diseases in-creased predominantly and influenced the quality of people's lives seriously, so looking for new targets for the prevention and treat-ment of allergic diseases and drugs with less adverse reaction be-comes a hot topic for researchers. MicroRNAs(miRNAs)are a class of endogenous non-coding small RNAs that mediate nega-tively posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression by targe-ting specific mRNA sequences to inhibit the translation of mR-NAs. They are widely involved in the biological processes of cell differentiation, immune response and tumor development. The study shows that miRNAs can control the occurrence and devel-opment of allergic diseases. Studying the regulatory role of miR-NAs in allergic diseases has important implications for exploring the immunopathological mechanisms and discovering new thera-peutic targets of drugs.

Objective To evaluate a method named “one-step procedure”,i.e.,combined duode-noscopy,laparoscopy and choledochoscopy for choledocholithiasis accompanied with cholecystolithiasis.Meth-ods Fifty-three cases with gallbladder stones combined with common bile duct stones diagnosed from February 2012 to February 2014 were assigned to two groups,29 cases in “one-step procedure”group,who underwent duodenoscopy,laparoscopy and choledochoscopy in one operation,and 24 cases in the control group,who first-ly underwent endoscopic sphincterotomy to remove common bile duct stones,and then LC was performed after several days.The rate of complications related to the procedure,success rate of complete stone removal,length of hospital stay and hospitalization expenses were compared between the two groups.Results All 53 patients underwent the surgery and ERCP procedure successfully.There were no significant differences between the“one-step procedure”group and the control group in complication rates[3.4%(1 /29)VS 12.5%(3 /24),P =0.21],complete stone removal rates[96.6%(28 /29)VS 100.0%(24/24),P =0.37].Differences were sig-nificant in length of hospital stay (6.7 ±1.3d VS 10.9 ±1.6d,P <0.01 )and hospitalization expenses (15 724 ±1 613 yuan VS 19 829 ±2 433 yuan,P <0.05)between the “one-step procedure”group and the control group.Conclusion The “one-step procedure”,the combined duodenoscopy,laparoscopy and chole-dochoscopy,is safe,effective,and has smaller length of hospital stay and lower hospitalization expenses.
