Objective To investigate the short-term therapeutic effect of warfarin in preventing portal vein thrombosis (PVT) after modified laparoscopic splenectomy combined with pericardial devascularization.Methods The retrospective cohort study was used to analyze the clinical data of 32 patients with cirrhotic portal hypertension who were admitted to the Clinical Medical College of Yangzhou University between January 2014 and August 2014.The characteristics of warfarin and aspirin regimens were introduced to the patients before operation for choosing postoperative therapeutic regimen.Based on the decisions, 17 and 15 patients receiving warfarin regimen and aspirin regimen were divided into the warfarin group and the aspirin group, respectively.All the patients underwent successful modified laparoscopic splenectomy and pericardial devascularization with intraoperative autologous blood salvage.The treatments were as follows : from postoperative day 3, patients in the warfarin group received 2.5 mg of oral warfarin once daily with titration of the dose to maintain a target international normalized ratio (INR) of 2.0-3.0 for 1 year;patients in the aspirin group received 100 mg aspirin enteric coated tablets for 1 year;and both groups received 50 mg of oral dipyridamole three times daily for 3 months and subcutaneous injection of 4 100 U of low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) once daily for 5 days.Blood cell analysis, liver function, coagulation function and Doppler ultrasound screening for the occurrence of PVT were performed at the first and third months.Postoperative electronic gastroscopy was performed at 3 months postoperatively for observing the change of the esophageal and gastric-fundus varices.The patients were followed up till February 2015.The incidences of PVT and the level of INR at the first week, the first month and the third month after operation were observed.Measurement data with normal distribution were presented as (x) ± s and analyzed by t test, and measurement data with skewed distribution were presented as M(range) and analyzed by the rank-sum test.Comparison of the mean INR at different time points between the 2 groups was analyzed by the repeated measures ANOVA.Comparison of count data was analyzed by the Fisher's Exact Probility.Results There were no gastrointestinal hemorrhage or perioperative death in the 2 groups.(1) The overall incidences of PVT at postoperative week 1 were 9/17 and 6/15 in the warfarin and the aspirin groups, respectively, with no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).However, the overall incidences of PVT at postoperative month 1 and 3 were 7/17 and 3/17 in the warfarin group, which was significantly different from 12/15 and 12/15 in the aspirin group (P ＜ 0.05).(2)The incidences of main portal vein thrombosis (MPVT) at postoperative week 1 and postoperative month 1 were 5/17 and 6/17 in the warfarin group, 4/15 and 5/15 in the aspirin group, showing no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).The incidence of MPVT at postoperative month 3 was 3/17 in the warfarin group, which was significantly different from 9/15 in the aspirin group (P ＜ 0.05).(3) The INR was changed from 1.30 ± 0.17 before operation to 1.55 ± 0.38 at postoperative month 3 in the warfarin group, and from 1.33 ±0.14 before operation to 1.21 ±0.11 at postoperative month 3 in the aspirin group, showing significant difference in the changing trend between the 2 groups (F =713.908, P ＜ 0.05).(4) All the 32 patients were followed up for a median time of 7 months (range, 3-11 months).The results of electronic gastroscopy at postoperative month 3 showed that the esophageal and gastric-fundus varices were obviously improved or disappeared.Conclusion Warfarin in preventing PVT after modified laparoscopic splenectomy combined with pericardial devascularization is safe and feasible, with a good short-term outcome.

Objective To evaluate modified laparoscopic hepatic hemangioma extraction methods during laparoscopic hepatectomy.Methods From May 2009 to June 2013, 25 hepatic hemangioma patients were admitted for laparoscopic hepatectomy.Patients were divided into modified laparoscopic group with modified laparoscopic hepatic hemangioma extraction methods (MLH, n =11) and traditional laparoscopic group (TLH, n =14).Perioperative clinical parameters were compared between the two groups.Results Operative time (148.6 ± 18.0) min, time to removal of the HCH (15.7 ±4.6) min, visual analog scale pain score on the first postoperative day (2.3 ± 0.9), time to off-bed activity (2.5 ± 0.8) d, and postoperative hospital stay (8.5 ± 2.6)d in the MLH group were all less than those in the TLH group [(163.9±13.2)min, (33.9±3.1)min, (3.4±0.9), (3.1±0.8)d, (10.6±1.9)d] (t=-2.451,t =-11.800, t =-2.931, t =-2.156, t =-2.338,P ＜ 0.05).There were one in the MLH group and two cases in the TLH group developing postoperative complications (P =1.000).Conclusions Modified laparoscopic hepatic hemangioma extraction methods during laparoscopic hepatectomy for hepatic hemangioma is safe, feasible and of good therapeutic effect.

Objective To explore the feasibility and effect of spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy in patients with distal pancreatic injures and its outcome.Methods Retrospectively analysed the follow up results of 18 patients undergoing spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy in Clinical Medical College of Yangzhou University from March 2008 to November 2012.Results The operations were successful in all of these 18 patients,B-mode ultrasonography and CT scan follow-up revealed that there were no significant changes in the size and structure of the spleens.The operation time was 152 to 188 minutes (mean,172 minutes),and the intraoperative blood loss was 155 to 356 mL (mean,191 mL).The length of postoperative hospital stay was 13 to 19 days (mean,15 days).No bleeding after operation,no pancreatic leakage,and no intraabdominal infection occurred.Conclusions Distal pancreatectomy with spleen and supply vessel preserving is effective and feasible methods for the patients with distal

Objective To find an ideal animal model of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) through investigating the characteristics of three two-hit animal models of ARDS.Methods Forty-eight SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: Control group [2.5 mL/kg normal saline (NS) i.v.given at 0 min and 30 min];OA+OA group [0.5 mL/kg oleic acid (OA) i.v.given at 0 min and 30 min];LPS+LPS group [2.5 mg/kg lipopolysaccharide (LPS) i.v.given at 0 min and 30 min];and OA+LPS group [0.5 mL/kg OA i.v.given at 0 min and 2.5 mg/kg LPS,i.v.given at 30 min].The samples were collected at 5 h after the second drug injection.White blood cells count (WBC),polymorphonuclear leukocyte ratio (PMN%),total protein concentration,tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) level in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF),arterial blood gas analysis and lung wet-dry weight ratio (W/D) were measured,respectively.Pathological changes in the lung tissues were observed and histological scores were evaluated.Results Compared with those in the control group,PaCO2,WBC,PMN%,total protein concentration and TNF-α levels in BALF were significantly increased,while PaO2 was dramatically decreased (P<0.01) in the OA+OA,LPS+LPS and OA+LPS groups.The levels of protein concentration in BALF and lung W/D ratio in the OA+LPS group were significantly higher than these in the LPS+LPS group (P<0.05 for all),but had no statistically significant difference compared with these in the OA+OA group.The levels of WBC,PMN% and TNF-α in BALF in the OA+LPS group were significantly higher than those in the OA+OA group (P<0.05),but not significantly different from those in the LPS+LPS group.The most typical pathological changes and the highest pathological scores were found in the OA+LPS group.Conclusions All the three different methods including OA+OA,LPS+LPS,and OA+LPS can be used to establish “two-hit” animal models of acute respiratory distress syndrome.The “two-hit” animal model of acute respiratory distress syndrome induced by OA+LPS is more closer to clinical ARDS and is useful for studies on the pathophysiology of ARDS,and is an ideal “two-hit” animal model of ARDS.

Objective To investigate the preventive effect research of dezocine in the treatment of hyperpathia caused by remifentanil and sevoflurane. Methods A total of 84 epigastric operation patients were collected into this study. Both of them were anesthetized by the therapy of remifentanil and sevoflurane. Patients of observation group were treated with dezocine before the end of the operation. Patients in control group were treated with fentanyl before the end of the operation. The six behavioral pain score (BRS6) and VAS score were used to evaluate the degree of pain in patients before and after surgery, and recovery time, extubation time and leave PACU time as well as anesthesia ad-verse reactions in the two groups were recorded. Results The differences of preoperative BRS6 and VAS score were not statistically significant (P>0.05), BRS6 and VAS scores at 1 h after surgery in the observation group were significantly lower than the control group; recovery time, extubation time and leave PACU time in observation group were (28.96±5.54) min, (21.08±7.45) min and (58.05±10.32) min, while (38.62±5.05) min, (57.08±5.36) min and (69.05±9.52) min in the control group, the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05); 1d after anesthesia, incidence of vomiting in the observation group was significantly lower than the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Dezocine has perfect preven-tive effect in the treatment of hyperpathia caused by remifentanil and sevoflurane.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of patients with stage T2 bladder cancer who underwent combined treatment of bladder-preserving surgery and adjuvant intra-arterial chemotherapy.Methods The survival data of bladder cancer paients from January 2000 to December 2014 with stage T2N0M0 were retrospectively analyzed.Thirty-five patients of cT2N0M0 receive combined treatment of bladder-preserving surgery and adjuvant intra-arterial chemotherapy(group A),and 80 patients of pT2N0M0 underwent radical cystectomy (RC) (group B).The pathological diagnosis of all patients was urothelial carcinoma.In group A,there were 33(94.2％) males and 2 (5.8％) females;20 (57.1％) tumor size less than 3 cm and 15 (42.9％) larger than 3 cm;24 (68.6％) with single tumor and 11 (31.4％) with multiple tumors;11 (31.4％) patients with primary tumors and 24 (68.6％) recurrent tumors.In group B,there were 71 (88.7％) males and 9 (11.3％) females;35 (43.8％) tumor size less than 3 cm and 45(56.2％) larger than 3 cm;44 (55.0％) with single tumors and 36 (45.0％) with multiple tumors;22(27.5％) patients with primary tumors and 58 (72.5％) recurrent tumors.Results Groups A and B consisted of 35 and 80 patients and median follow-up time was 68 (13-157)and 67 (4-198)months,respectively.There was no significantly statistical difference in disease-specific survival (DSS) between the two groups(P =0.888),76.5％ for group A and 60.6％ for group B respectively.In group A,26 (74.3％) patients achieved complete response (CR) to intra-arterial chemotherapy.Additionally,amounts of 21 (60.0％) patients preserve their functional bladder successfully and their median follow-up time was 69 (13-134)months.8 patients receive delayed radical cystectomy when suffered tumor recurrence and none of them had lymph node metastases.Of those pathological stage was presented as stage T2 5 cases,T3 2 cases and T4 1 case.Importantly,the 8 patients who receive delayed RC did not confer worse DSS when compared with those underwent immediate RC in group B (P =0.809).Cox proportional hazards model showed that tumor number and CR to intra-arterial chemotherapy was independent prognostic factor for disease-free survival (HR =0.238,P =0.007) and DSS(HR =0.085,P =0.004) respectively.During the period of intra-arterial chemotherapy,we did not observe hematological toxicity of grade Ⅳ and the hematological toxicity of grade Ⅰ-Ⅲ was 9 (25.7％),6 (17.1％) and 4 (11.4％).Conclusions For patients with T2N0M0,combined treatment of bladder-preserving surgery and adjuvant intra-arterial chemotherapy could be a therapy with long-term survival outcome and safety.The therapy could be offered as alternative treatment option for patients who were unsuitable for receiving RC.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of maintenance electroconvulsive therapy (MECT) combined with quetiapine treatment for manic episodes of bipolar disorder.Methods:A total of 103 patients with manic episodes of bipolar disorder received treatment in Kangci Hospital of Jiaxing from January 2019 to August 2020 and were included in this study. They were randomly divided into observation ( n = 46) and control groups ( n = 57). The observation group was given MECT combined with quetiapine treatment and the control group was treated with magnesium valproate sustained-release tablets combined with quetiapine. All patients received 4 weeks of treatment. Clinical efficacy, total hospital cost, drug cost during hospitalization, drug proportion, adverse reactions, and scores of the Bech-Rafaelsdn Mania Rating Scale and the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test pre- and post-treatment were compared between the two groups. Results:After 4 weeks of treatment, total response rate was significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group [76.09% (35/46) vs. 56.14% (32/57), χ2 = 4.45, P < 0.05]. In the observation group, total hospital cost, drug cost during hospitalization, and drug proportion were (16074.52 ± 1019.81) yuan, (1374.52 ± 619.81) yuan, and 8.70% respectively, which were not significantly different from those in the control group [(15618.14 ± 1550.34) yuan, (1261.14 ± 750.34) yuan, 10.53%, t = 1.71, 0.82, χ2 = 0.09, all P > 0.05]. After 4 weeks of treatment, Bech-Rafaelsdn Mania Rating score was significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group [(7.36 ± 3.04) points vs. (10.23 ± 2.37) points, t = 5.38, P < 0.001]. The number of wrong responses and the number of perseverative errors in the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test in the observation group were (40.45 ± 3.61) counts and (9.56 ± 1.39) counts, respectively, which were significantly lower than those in the control group [(48.59 ± 4.51) counts, (12.08 ± 1.25) counts, t = 10.17, 9.56, both P < 0.001]. The number of perseverative errors in the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test was significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group [(33.85 ± 2.50) counts vs. (29.71 ± 2.14) counts, t = 8.90, P < 0.001]. There was no significant difference in total incidence of adverse reactions between observation and control groups (21.74% vs. 22.81%, χ2 = 0.01, P > 0.05). Conclusion:MECT combined with quetiapine treatment is highly effective on the manic episodes of bipolar disorder. The combined therapy is worthy of clinical application.

Objective To investigate the clinical safety and value of vagus nerve-preserving versus conventional laparoscopic splenectomy and azygoportal disconnection.Methods A total of 60 cirrhotic patients with bleeding portal hypertension undergoing modified laparoscopic splenectomy and azygoportal disconnection between Apr 2015 and Sep 2016 were retrospectively analyzed.Patients were divided into nonvagus nerve-preserving (n =37) and vagus nerve-preserving group (n =23).Results Operative time (169 ± 42) min,and incidences of postoperative complications (102/370),delayed gastric emptying (35/37),epigastric fullness (22/37),diarrhea (26/37) in non-vagus nerve-preserving group were all more than those in vagus nerve-preserving group [(147 ± 21) min,(21/230),(2/23),(2/23),(2/23)] (t =2.684,x2 =29.583,44.272,15.229,21.606,all P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant between-group difference in body weight at admission and on postoperative day 7 (POD 7) between the two groups.However,body weight in vagus nerve-preserving group was significantly higher on postoperative 6 month (POM) compared with that in non-vagus nerve-preserving group [(63 ± 10) kg vs.(70 ± 12) kg,t =2.546,P ＜ 0.05].There was no significant between-group difference in ALB levels at admission and on POD 7 between the two groups.However,ALB levels in vagus nerve-preserving group at POM 6 were significantly higher than those in non-vagus nerve-preserving group [(42 ±6) g/L vs.(46 ±5) g/L,t =-2.607,P ＜ 0.05].Conclusion Vagus nerve-preserving laparoscopic splenectomy and azygoportal disconnection for cirrhotic portal hypertension is safe,feasible and with good therapeutic effect.

Objective: To explore the clinical outcome of advanced testicular nonseminomatous germ cell cancer patients undergoing post chemotherapy retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (PC-RPLND), and to analyze the relevant prognostic factors of lymph node pathological. Methods: A total of 43 consecutive testicular nonseminomatous germ cell cancer patients underwent PC-RPLND between March 2001 and December 2014 in Department of Urology at Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center were retrospectively reviewed. The average age of the patients was (29.0±11.5) years (ranging from 12 to 58 years). Before PC-RPLND, 22 patients were classified as phase Ⅱ, while 21 were phase Ⅲ. Primary tumor histology revealed seminomatous elements in 19 cases, embryonal cell carcinoma in 22 cases, yolk sac tumor in 13 cases, chorionic carcinoma in 3 cases, mature teratomatous elements in 11 and immature teratomatous elements in 2 cases. Patients were treated with cisplatin-based chemotherapy after orchectomy and then underwent surgical resection of retroperitoneal lymph nodes.After PC-RPLND, all patients underwent a periodic review including the blood routine, biochemistry routine and computed tomography or ultrasonograph of the chest, the abdomen and the pelvis. The association of pathological data with patient′s clinic features and the correlations between molecular features detected with each other were assessed by the t test, χ² and Fisher′s exact test. Multivariate logistic regression were used to assess prognostic factors. Results: The median operative time was 278 minutes (ranging from 50 to 715 minutes). Median blood loss was 425 ml (ranging from 50 to 5 000 ml). Eight patients received blood transfusion intra-operatively, 2 patients underwent adjunctive surgical procedures, 4 patients developed ileus and 4 had an ascites chylosus following PC-RPLND, 1 patient had a postoperative hyperthermia and retrograde ejaculation was present in 10 patients. The transverse diameter of the residual tumor in patients ranged from 0.8 to 18.2 cm. Necrosis, teratoma and viable germ cell tumors were found in 15, 17 and 11 of all patients. The median follow-up time was 46 months (ranging from 6 to 169 months). There were 39 patients had no tumor recurrence, 7 patients were found recurrence after PC-RPLND, 5 died of malignant germ cell tumor. The normal serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level before chemotherapy (HR=25.811, 95%CI: 0.678 to 982.624, P=0.017) and relative changes more than 50% in retroperitoneal lymph node size (HR=0.016, 95%CI: 0 to 0.698, P=0.032) were statistically significant prognostic factors of the presence of necrosis. Conclusions Since most residual masses are not sensitive to chemotherapy, PC-RPLND is still an essential part of the treatment of metastatic testicular nonseminomatous germ cell cancer. Patients with the normal serum LDH level before chemotherapy and a shrinkage of 50% or more in retroperitoneal mass have a considerably chance of having necrosis in the retroperitoneum resection. This may help to refine the selection of candidates for PC-RPLND.
