【Objective】 Selenium (Se) contents of some chemical forms as total Se,inorganic Se,organic Se and selenomethionine (SeMet) in rice e nriched-Se were determined, in order to provide scientific basis for applying r ice enriched-Se to cancer prevention. 【Methods】 Fluorometric determination wi th 2,3-diaminonaphthalene (2,3-DAN) for total Se, inorganic Se and organic Se, and with CNBr-2,3-DAN for SeMet. 【Results】 Total Se contents of rice enrich ed-Se reaping in summer and autumn were (2.71±0.97) μg/g, (9.87±1.18 ) μg/g, respectively, both higher than that of ordinary rice (P<0.001); the organic Se occupying over 99% of total Se were 2.68, 9.77 μg/g, respectively . Main component of the organic Se was SeMet, and its Se content (Se-SeMet) was (1.45±0.67) μg/g for rice enriched-Se reaping in summer, (4.96±0.98) μ g/g in autumn,and their contents/total Se contents were 53.5, 50.5 %, respecti vely. 【Conclusions】 Most part of Se in rice enriched-Se was natural organic Se and main component of the organic Se was SeMet.

Objective To establish a non-venous bypass orthotopic liver transplantation model in Bama miniature pigs with high repeatability and stability. Methods Twelve Bama miniature pigs were randomly divided into the donor group (n=6) and recipient group (n=6). Pigs underwent non-venous bypass orthotopic liver transplantation. The time of anhepatic phase during operation was shortened, blood pressure during anhepatic phase was stably maintained, and management of anesthesia and body fluid during operation were strengthened. The operation time, anhepatic phase and survival status of the recipients were observed and recorded. The intraoperative heart rate, mean arterial pressure (MAP) and changes in arterial blood gas analysis were monitored. The perioperative liver function was evaluated. Results Among 6 Bama miniature pigs, 1 died from transplantation failure intraoperatively. The operation time of the remaining 5 pigs was (247±27) min and the time of anhepatic phase was (46±4) min. Three animals survived for more than 2 weeks. Compared with the preanhepatic phase, the heart rate of the animals was significantly faster, MAP was considerably reduced to (46±6) mmHg, blood pH value, base excess (BE) and HCO₃^- level were all significantly decreased and serum level of K⁺ was significantly elevated during the anhepatic phase (all P < 0.05). In the neohepatic phase, MAP of Bama miniature pigs was significantly increased, heart rate was dramatically slower.Blood pH value, BE, HCO₃^- level were significantly increased and serum level of K⁺ was significantly declined (all P < 0.05). During abdominal closure, MAP, blood gas indexes and serum level of K⁺ were almost recovered to those in the preanhepatic phase. Compared with preoperative levels, the levels of alanine aminotransferase(ALT), aspartate aminotransferase(AST), lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)and alkaline phosphatase(ALP)were significantly increased after operation (all P < 0.05), the change in AST was the most obvious, and it gradually decreased at postoperative 2 d. The level of γ-gutamyl transferase(GGT) did not significantly elevated. The level of total bilirubin (TB) was evidently elevated at postoperative 5 d. Compared with the preoperative levels, the levels of total protein (TP) and albumin (ALB) were significantly decreased after operation (both P < 0.05), and began to gradually increase at postoperative 1 d. Conclusions The non-venous bypass orthotopic liver transplantation model of Bama miniature pig is convenient, with highly reproducible and survival rate, which can be utilized as a standardized liver transplantation model.

Gastric cancer is a prevalent malignancy of the digestive system, and traditional laparoscopic radical gastrectomy remains a crucial treatment modality. However, the abdominal wound associated with specimen removal during this procedure conflicts with contemporary concept of minimally invasive surgery. Natural orifice specimen extraction surgery (NOSES) is an emerging minimally invasive surgical technique that has gained increasing utilization in patients with gastrointestinal tumors, owing to its benefits of reduced wound, accelerated postoperative recovery, and diminished postoperative pain. In recent years, the extensive application of NOSES technology for colorectal cancer in China has provided theoretical support for the minimally invasive treatment of gastric cancer. With the standardization of community health examinations in China, the incidence of early gastric cancer diagnoses is expected to rise, making NOSES surgery the likely future trend in the surgical treatment for early gastric cancer. However, this area remains under-explored both domestically and internationally. This paper aims to synthesize prior literature and review the historical development, current research status, advantages and disadvantages, technical challenges, and future directions of completely laparoscopic radical treatment of distal gastric cancer utilizing NOSES.

Objective To explore the value of postoperative prognostic nutritional index (post-PNI) in the prognosis of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after hepatectomy. Methods Clinical data of 316 patients receiving HCC hepatectomy in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University between January 2009 and December 2014 was analyzed retrospectively. There were 289 males and 27 females, with a mean age of (50±12) years. The informed consents of all patients were obtained and the local ethical committee approval was received. Post-PNI was calculated using value of ALB and lymphocyte count of the first examination after operation. The optimum cut-off value of post-PNI was defined according to receivers' operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and the patients were divided into high post-PNI group and low post-PNI group. Survival analysis of two groups was conducted using Kaplan-Meier method and Log-rank test, and the influencing factors for survival and prognosis were analyzed by Cox proportional hazard model. Results The optimum cut-off value of post-PNI was 36.4 by ROC curve. There were 165 cases in high post-PNI group, and 151 cases in low post-PNI group. The 1-, 3- and 5-year recurrence-free survival rate and overall survival rate of the high post-PNI group were respectively 74.4%, 55.5%, 50.3% and 93.8%, 85.9%, 78.7%, and were respectively 60.9%, 32.5%, 27.1% and 91.3%, 72.0% and 62.9% in low post-PNI group were, where significant differences were observed (χ2=16.939, 8.428; P<0.05). Multiple-factor analysis showed that post-PNI≤36.4 was the independent risk factor for the recurrence-free survival and overall survival of HCC hepatectomy patients(HR=1.705,1.771;P<0.05).Conclusions Post-PNI is an influencing factor for the recurrence-free survival and overall survival of HCC hepatectomy patients. Low post-PNI patients have worse prognosis.
