Objective To investigate the correlation between interleukin-6 (IL-6) and future liver remnant (FLR) growth after associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS).Methods The retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted.The clinicopathological data of 15 patients who underwent ALPPS at the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University between March 2017 and May 2018 were collected.Observation indicators:(1) intraoperative situations in the first staged ALPPS and the second staged ALPPS;(2) postoperative situations:① postoperative complications and duration of hospital stay,② results of pathological examination;(3) IL-6 concentration in the peripheral blood before and after operation;(4)follow-up situations.Follow-up using outpatient examination,telephone interview and internet was performed to detect life quality and survival of patients.Imaging examination was done to detect tumor recurrence and metastasis.Follow-up was done up to May 2018.Measurement data with normal distribution or similar normal distribution were represented as (x)±s.Measurement data with skewed distribution were described as M (range).Repeated measures data were analyzed by the repeated measures ANOVA.Correlation comparison was done using Pearson bivariate correlation test.Results (1) Intraoperative situations.① The first staged ALPPS:15 patients had liver parenchymal transection via anterior approach combined with selective hepatic vascular exclusion,without allogenic blood transfusion.The operation time,volume of intraoperative blood loss,FLR at postoperative 16 days,interval time to the second staged ALPPS,growth rate of liver volume,ratio of FLR and standard liver volume (SLV) were respectively 324 minutes (range,240-387 minutes),356 mL (range,200-600 mL),(582± 134) cm3,24 days (range,9-34 days),35%±20% and 53%±7%.② The second staged ALPPS:of 15 patients,13 underwent the second staged ALPPS successfully including 11 undergoing middle hepatic vein preserved right hepatectomy and 2 undergoing expanded right hemihepatectomy or right trisegmentectomy,1 underwent transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) due to FLR/SLV =31%,1 was detected yellow-white nodules at left lobe and confirmed as hepatocellular carcinoma by frozen section pathological examination,and then improved and discharged after 5-FU abdominal local chemotherapy combined with postoperative TACE.The operation time,volume of intraoperative blood loss of 13 patients undergoing the second staged ALPPS were 324 minutes (range,140-515 minutes) and 639 mL(range,100-1 400 mL).Two patients had blood transfusion including 1 with 800 mL of fresh frozen plasma and 4.0 U of red cells and 1 with 600 mL of plasma and 9.5 U of de-leucocytes and red cells.(2) Postoperative situations.① Postoperative complications and duration of hospital stay:15 patients had no perioperative death,9 and 6 were detected grade A and grade B liver failure respectively,15 had grade Ⅰ complications of Clavien-Dindo classification and no patient had grade Ⅱ and above complications,10 had pleural effusion including 1 with volume of effusion >500 mL.Of 13 patients undergoing the second staged ALPPS,4 and 9 were detected grade A and grade B liver failure respectively,8 and 5 had grade Ⅰ and Ⅱ complications of Clavien-Dindo classification and no patient had grade Ⅲ and above complications,11 had few pleural effusion with volume of effusion <500 mL.Patients with grade B liver failure and grade Ⅱ complications were recovered and discharged after treatments of liver protection,gastric protection,reinforced dressing change,continuous use of Alb,fresh frozen plasma transfusion.The patient with volume of pleural effusion > 500 mL was improved after closed thoracic drainage and other patients with pleural effusion were improved after symptomatic and supportive treatment.Duration of total hospital stay was 31 days (range,22-49 days) in 15 patients.② Results of pathological examination:13 patients undergoing complete ALPPS were diagnosed as hepaticocellular carcinoma with R0 resection and without cancer cells involving surgical margin,including 7 with grade Ⅱ portal vein tumor thrombus.Ishak score for postoperative pathological fibrosis and liver cirrhosis was 7.7±1.4 in 15 patients,including 1 case of 5,1 case of 6,2 case of 7,6 case of 8,5 case of 9.(3) IL-6 concentration in the peripheral blood before and after operation:IL-6 concentration in the peripheral blood before surgery was (8±3)ng/L in 15 patients,and (207±150)ng/L,(104±65)ng/L,(45±38)ng/L,(26±9)ng/L,(18±10)ng/L at 1,3,5,7,10 days after the first staged ALPPS,showing a statistically significant difference in changing trend before and after surgery (F=25.877,P<0.05) and statistically significant differences in paired comparison between 1,3,5,7,10 days after the first staged ALPPS and before surgery respectively (P<0.05).There was correlation between IL-6 concentration in the peripheral blood at 1,3 days after the first staged ALPPS and growth of FLR (r=0.766,0.881,P<0.05),and also between IL-6 concentration in the peripheral blood at 1,3 days after the first staged ALPPS and growth rate of FLR (r =0.810,0.879,P< 0.05).(4) Follow-up:15 patients were followed up for 1-14 months with a median time of 7 months.Of the 15 patients,1 without the second staged ALPPS died of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome at 7 months after the first staged ALPPS,14 survived and took care of theirselves in daily life during follow-up with improved life quality,including 1 detected multiple lung metastases at 12 months after complete ALPPS with mild increased AFP and 13 undetected new lesions in the remnant liver on contrast-enhanced CT and liver contrast-enhanced ultrasonography with normal AFP.Conclusion The peak of IL-6 concentration in peripheral blood at 1,3 days after the first staged ALPPS is significantly correlated with the hyperplasia of FLR,which may be used to predict the hyperplasia of FLR.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between serum uric acid level and hyperglycemia.Methods:A medical examination cohort of the staff of our hospital was constructed. From February 1 st, 2011, to December 31 st, 2011, 3 937 staff members without hyperglycemia were selected, and baseline data were collected through a questionnaire survey, physical examination, measurement of blood lipid and blood glucose, assessment of kidney function, and other laboratory tests. The subjects were followed up during the annual physical examination for 7 years, from January 1 st, 2012, to December 31 st, 2018. They were divided into four groups according to serum uric acid level: uric acid<360 μmol/L, 360≤uric acid<420 μmol/L, 420≤uric acid<480 μmol/L, and uric acid≥ 480 μmol/L. With the occurrence of hyperglycemia as the outcome indicator; uric acid level as the observation index; uric acid<360 μmol/L as the control group; and gender, age, body mass index, smoking, hypertension, dyslipidemia as confounding factors, Cox regression was performed before and after adjusting confounding factors to analyze the relationship between different uric acid levels and the incidence of hyperglycemia in the entire sample, in the male staff, and in the female staff. Results:The 7-year cumulative incidence of hyperglycemia in the four groups were 15.7%, 34.0%, 38.8%, and 43.8%, respectively ( Z=148.94, P<0.01). In the male staff, the 7-year cumulative incidence rates in the four groups were 23.4%, 29.9%, 34.7%, and 35.8%, respectively ( Z=11.17, P<0.01). In the female staff, the 7-year cumulative incidence rates in the four groups were 14.2%, 42.5%, 52.2%, and 65.0%, respectively ( Z=141.84, P<0.01. After adjusting for gender, age, body mass index, smoking, hypertension, and dyslipidemia, the risk of hyperglycemia in the 360≤uric acid<420 μmol/L, 420≤uric acid<480 μmol/L, and uric acid≥ 480 μmol/L groups were 1.73 (1.39-2.15), 1.86 (1.42-2.45), and 1.95 (1.34-2.85) times higher than that in the control group (all P<0.05). Among female staff, the risk of hyperglycemia in the 360≤uric acid<420 μmol/L, 420≤uric acid<480 μmol/L, and uric acid≥ 480 μmol/L groups were 2.18 (1.62-2.94), 3.41 (2.24-5.20), and 3.02 (1.69-5.40) times, respectively, and were also higher than those in the control group (all P<0.01). Conclusion:With the increase of serum uric acid level, the risk of hyperglycemia in medical staff increases, which is mainly manifested in female staff.
