Objective To discuss the value of double contrast-enhanced ultrasound(DCEUS) as a method to predict the pathologic grade of regression to preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy(NAC) in advanced gastric cancer(AGC) patients,the contrast parameters of gastric carcinoma were measured and its correlation with pathologic response degree was analyzed.Methods Fifty seven patients with endoscopic biopsy-proven AGC were considered for a complete resection of the lesion and had a DCEUS prior to and following XELOX pre-operative NAC therapy for 3 cycles.The arrival time (AT),time-to-peak (TTP), baseline intensity(BI) and peak intensity(PI) of the primary gastric tumor were measured.The enhanced intensity(EI)was defined as PI minus BI.The percentage of change of DCEUS parameters before and after NAC therapy and its correlation with phathologic grades of regression was calculated.Patients were divided into responder and nonreponder group according to different pathologic response grade.The differences of DCEUS parameters between two groups were compared.The diagnostic accuracy of DCEUS in prediction of benefit from preoperative NAC was represented by means of receive operating characteristic(ROC)curves. Results After NAC,the PI and EI values of local gastric cancer were significantly lower than before NAC. There were significant differences in PI and EI after NAC between the responder and nonresponder groups. Among the DCEUS parameters showed significant correlation with pathologic grade of regression,the correlation factor was highest in percentage of EI reduction of primary gastric tumor(ρ= -0.501 ,P =0.007).When the optimal cutoff value of EI reduction rate of gastric tumor determined was 27%,a sensitivity of 81 .8% and specificity of 66.7% were achieved.Conclusions DCEUS might be a novel, noninvasive,liable and potential method to select the benefit responder from the preoperative NAC in AGC patient.

Objective To investigate the influence factors on the graft hemodynamics after liver transplantation by CT perfusion(CTP).Methods Thirty three liver recipients received CT angiography (CTA)and CTP after liver transplantation.The cases would be excluded when their peak values of the aorta enhancement on time-density curves were out of 95%confidence level.The 95% confidence levels of the hepatic artery perfusion(HAP),portal vein perfusion(PVP),total liver perfusion(TLP)and hepatic perfusion index(HPI)were calculated based on the recipients without postoperative complications and named them as references to those with complication.Results Twenty nine recipients were enrolled in the study.15 of them had no postoperative complication while the other 14 had.The 95% confidence levels of HAP,PVP,TLP and HPI on the 15 recipients without complications were(0.1509-0.3183),the 14 cases with complications.HAP decreased in 7 cases,5 of them had hepatic artery stenosis and 3 of them had splenomegaly.HAP increased in 2 cases.both of them had portal vein stenosis.PVP decreased in 13 cases,8 of them had portal vein stenosis,portal vein thrombosis or occlusion,4 of them had splenorenal shunts and 2 of them had fatty liver.TLP decreased in 12 cases and coincident with PVP decreasing.Only 2 cases had HPI decreasing accompanied with HAP decreasing.Conclusion The hepatic blood perfusion through the hepatic artery and portal vein could be quantitatively measured non-invasively by CTP.The severity and the subtypes of the hepatic ischemia could be evaluated objectively,which is helpful for treatment guidance.

The more times of participation in research integrity training, the better cognition of misconduct of scientific research process, research results publication process, and overall academic misconduct, with significant differences ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The education on scientific research integrity of medical post-graduates should be carried out systematically, while the content should be improved and the form should be enriched for scientific research integrity education, so that the medical post-graduates can have a deeper understanding of the code of academic practices, and an education model of scientific research integrity for medical post-graduate which is suitable for China′s national conditions can be gradually developed.

Objective:To analyze the research hotspots and frontiers of hospital research management research from 1981 to 2022.Methods:The relevant literature in the field of hospital scientific research management was retrieved from the CNKI database to explore the trends of publications in this research field. A scientific knowledge graph was drawn and a visualization analysis of the information of authors, issuing units, and research institutions were conducted by Cite Space.5.8.R3.Research hotspots were discussed based on keyword emergence, cluster analysis, and keyword time zone graph.Results:The publication trend in this field was generally policy-oriented, but the cooperation among authors and institutions was relatively loose, and the research hotspots were gradually shifting from scientific research funding management to discipline construction, talent training, translational medicine, and informatization. Cluster analysis found that the main content of hospital scientific research management was scientific research funding and clinical scientific research management and the main management objects were the medical and nursing staff.Conclusions:Hospital scientific research managers must adhere to the policy-oriented approach, strengthen the cooperation and exchanges in scientific research management, innovate the scientific research management mode around the research hotspots and development trends, and promote the quality and efficiency of scientific research management.

Objective: To assess value of contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in TN staging of pancreatic cancer and compared with contrast enhanced computed tomography(CECT). Methods: Seventy-eight cases with pancreatic cancer confirmed by pathology were enrolled in this study. All patients were examined using CEUS and CECT and staged according to the 8th guideline of pancreas tumors of AJCC. The diagnostic accuracies of CEUS in TN staging of pancreas tumors were compared with CECT. Results: The diagnostic accuracies of CEUS in T staging and N staging of pancreatic cancer were 80.8%, and 78.2%, respectively. For CECT, the diagnostic accuracies in T staging and N staging were 88.5%, and 88.5%, respectively. There was no significant difference in the diagnostic accuracies between CEUS and CECT in T staging(χ²=1.56, P=0.21). The diagnostic accuracy of CEUS in N staging was significantly lower than that of CECT(χ²=3.86, P=0.04). Conclusions The diagnostic accuracy of CEUS in T staging of pancreatic cancer is similar to that of CECT, while in its N staging is lower than that of CECT.

Objective: To investigate the application and therapeutic effect of external tissue expansion-assisted autologous fat grafting for delayed breast reconstruction. Methods: Patients began wearing the BRAVA negative pressure system 8 hours a day for recipient tissue expansion for one month before the fat grafting procedure. After fat grafting, BRAVA was recommended to be worn 8 hours a day from postoperative 48 hours to one month. The interval of each fat grafting procedure was 2.5 to 3.0 months. The procedures were repeated until the completion of breast reconstruction. Water-jet assisted liposuction and subcutaneous release of scars were also performed during surgery. Results: From January 2013 to November 2016, 29 patients were followed up for 12 to 58 months, with average of 31.6 months. 28 patients completed the external tissue expansion-assisted autologous fat grafting breast reconstruction. Completion required 1 to 6 procedures, with average of 3.4 procedures. The total initial fat fill volume for each breast was ranged from 200 to 1 000 ml, with average of 583.7 ml. The initial fat fill volume for each breast was ranged from 92.5 to 243.7 ml per operation, with average of 173.8 ml. One patient underwent latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap breast reconstruction after 3 fat grafting procedures. 8 patients completed the inframammary fold reconstruction, 3 patients underwent breast lift, 1 patient underwent lipofilling augmentation for the contralateral side. Postoperative satisfaction rate was 82.8% in patients and 75.9% in surgeon. Complication statistics: 5 cases of palpable nodules which recognized as fat necrosis (17.2%), one case of nontuberculous mycobacterial infection (3.4%) and one case of locoregional cancer recurrence (3.4%). Conclusions External tissue expansion-assisted autologous fat grafting is a minimally invasive procedure for breast reconstruction. Satisfactory results could be obtained for most of the patients who would like to choose fat grafting and have enough fat deposit in other parts of the body.

Objective: To compare the scar condition after breast implantation with axillary, periareolar and inframammary fold (IMF) incisions. Methods: The consecutive patients who were diagnosed as breast hypoplasia and underwent breast implantation surgeries between May 2012 to December 2014 were included in the research. The scars were assessed at 1, 6 and 12 months after surgery with VSS and patient satisfaction scoring. The results were analyzed with Variance and Kruskal-Wallis test based on the data type. Results: The scars of 173 patients were assessed 3 times with the follow-up rate being 82.4%. The VSS scores of every incision declined with time, and the patient satisfaction scores increased gradually. At one month after surgery, the media VSS scores were 6 in axillary group and 4 in periareolar and IMF groups, the differences had statistical significance (P<0.05). The media scores of patients satisfaction were 8 in periareolar group and 7 in axillary and IMF groups. The scores of periareola group were higher than those of axillary with statistical significance(P<0.05). When 6 months after surgery, the media VSS scores were 4 in axillary group and 3 in periareolar and IMF groups. The scores of axillary group were higher than those of IMF with statistical significance(P<0.05). The media scores of patients satisfaction were 8 in 3 groups. When 12 months after surgery, the media VSS scores were 0.5 and 1 in periareolar group (left and right respectively), and 2 in axillary and IMF groups. The media scores of patients satisfaction were 9 in 3 groups. No differences were found in VSS and patients satisfaction scores among three kinds of incisions (P>0.05). Conclusions The scars of three incisions achieved similar cosmetic effects and patient satisfaction at long-time follow-up.
