Objective To evaluate the accuracy and influencing factors of mini-probe endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) in determining the T stage for early gastric cancer (EGC).Methods The clinical data of 103 patients with EGC who were admitted to the Peking University Cancer Hospital from March 2011 to June 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.The diagnosis results of mini-probe EUS were compared with postoperative pathological findings,of which the differences in the accuracy of mini-probe EUS in determining the T stage of EGC were analyzed according to tumor location,diameter,differentiated types,with or without ulceration and Lauren classification.The rate comparison and univariate analysis were done by the chi-square test,and multivariate analysis was done using the Logistic regression model.Results Among 107 lesions,75 lesions were detected in uT1a stage by mini-probe EUS and 32 lesions in uT1b stage.The results of pathological examination showed that 61 lesions were detected in T1 a stage,40 lesions in T1 b stage and 6 lesions in T2 stage.The accuracy of mini-probe EUS in the T1 stage of EGC was 66.4％ (71/107),including 70.7％ (53/75) in the uT1 a stage and 56.3 ％ (18/32) in the uT1b stage of EGC.There were significant differences in the accuracy of mini-probe EUS for determining the T stage of EGC among the patients with different tumor diameters,different differentiated types and with or without ulceration (x2=7.834,7.432,6.461,P ＜0.05).The results of multivariate analysis showed that tumor diameter more than 30 mm and undifferentiated types of tumors were independent risk factors affecting the accuracy of miniprobe EUS in determining the T stage of EGC (OR =0.340,0.332,95％ confidence interval:0.563-0.932,0.582-1.022,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The clinical value of mini-probe EUS in the T stage of EGC is relatively high.The accuracy of mini-probe EUS detecting in the T1 a stage of EGC is higher than the T1 b stage of EGC,and the factors affecting the accuracy of mini-probe EUS in determining preoperative stage of EGC include tumor diameter more than 30 mm and undifferentiated type of tumors.

Objective To investigate the value of narrow band imaging (NBI) and lugol chromo-endoscopy (LCE) in the diagnosis of advanced esophageal carcinoma.Methods The clinical data of 162 patients with advanced esophageal carcinoma who received NBI and LCE at the Cancer Hospital of Peking University from November 2010 to May 2012 were retrospectively analyzed.Esophageal mucosa was first examined using white light imaging (WLI),and then followed by NBI and LCE,and the lengths of the lesions were recorded.Biopsy histology was obtained in all abnormal mucosa which were detected by NBI or LCE.Difference in the length of lesions detected by the NBI/LCE and WLI was calculated.Surgical approach and method of anastomosis were recorded for patients who received surgical treatment,and the final treatment method was recorded for patients who did not receive surgical treatment.Difference in the treatment methods was compared before and after endoscopy.Results The length of the lesions detected by the 3 methods was identical in 121 patients,different in 41 patients.The difference ranged between 1 and 3 cm was observed in 22 patients,＞3 cm and ≤5 cm in 8 patients,＞5 cm and ≤10 cm in 7 patients,＞ 10 cm in 4 patients.Of the patients in the above mentioned 4 categories,there were 1,2,2,4 patients in each category received neo-adjuvant therapy,and the rest patients received operation.Superficial cancer contiguous to the primary lesion was found in 41 patients,including squamous cell carcinoma in 31 patients,carcinoma-in-situ in 3 patients and severe dysplasia in 7 patients.Of the 153 patients who received surgery,the surgical plan for 12 patients was modified.Intrathoracic anastomosis was changed to cervical anastomosis in 2 patients,anastomosis under the aortic arch was changed to anastomosis above the aortic arch in 3 patients,trans-abdominal operation was changed to thoraco-abdominal operation in 7 patients.Conclusions The combination of NBI and LCE is more accurate to evaluate the extent of lesions of advanced esophageal carcinoma,and is useful to decide the treatment protocol.Pathological examination of the adjacent abnormal mucosa should be carried out for patients whose lesion length was inconsistent under different observation methods.

Objective To investigate the feasibility, safety and efficacy of endovascular implantation of 125I seeds under the dual-guidance of ultrasound and digital subtraction angiography (DSA) for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) associated with portal vein tumor thrombus. Methods A total of 30 patients with primary HCC complicated by portal vein tumor thrombus underwent implantation of 125I seeds via portal vein. Guided by ultrasound, percutaneous transhepatic puncturing of portal vein was performed first, then, catheter was inserted, which was followed by transcatheter 125I seeds implantation into the affected portal vein under DSA guidance. The technical success rate, postoperative complications, routine blood tests, liver function, the suppression of portal vein tumor thrombus and survival time were analyzed. Results Successful implantation of 125I seeds was achieved in all patients, no serious procedure-related complications occurred. All patients were followed up for 3-36 months, the portal vein tumor thrombus showed a significant shrinkage in all patients. The median survival time was about seven months. Conclusion For the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma associated with portal vein tumor thrombus, endovascular implantation of 125I seeds under the dual-guidance of ultrasound and digital subtraction angiography is clinically safe and feasible. This treatment has satisfactory effect on the portal vein tumor thrombus.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the protective effect of velvet antler polypeptides(VAP)on hydrogen peroxide( H2 O2 )-induced injury in vascular endothelial cells and the possible mechanism.METHODS The EVC-304 cells cultured invitrowere incubated with H2 O2 for another 12 h after pretreat-ment with VAP 20,40 and 80 mg·L-1 for 24 h. Cell viability was determined by MTT assay, Hoechst333258 staining was used to observe cell morphology,the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD)and the level of malondialdehyde( MDA)were detected with kits and the expression of heat shock protein(HSP70)and caspase 3 was detected by Western blotting. RESULTS Compared with the normal control group,the cell survival rate was decreased significantly in H2 O2 injury group( P ﹤0.01),cell shrinkage,chromatin condensation,and nuclear fragmentation were seen,the intracellular SOD activity decreased while MDA content increased(P﹤0.01),and caspase 3 and HSP70 expression increased(P﹤0.01). Compared with H2 O2 group,the cell survival rate in VAP 20,40 and 80 mg·L-1 pre-treatment groups increased significantly(P﹤0.01),the apoptosis ratio declined from(25.3±1.0)% to (15.2±1.2)%,(10.3±0.9)% and(7.9±1.4)%(P﹤0.01),the SOD activity increased to 19.2±0.5,22.3± 1.7 and(24.9±0.6)kU·g-1 protein(P﹤0.01),MDA concentration decreased to 1.51±0.2,1.48±0.3 and (1.02±0.1)μmol·g-1 protein(P﹤0.01),and the expression of caspase 3 and HSP70 declined significant-ly(P﹤0.01). CONCLUSION VAP has exert protective effect on H2 O2-induced injury in vascular endothe-lial cells. The possible mechanism might be related to improvement of intracellular oxidative stress level.

Objective Acute respiratory dysfunction (ARD) can occur after aortic surgery with the use of cardiopulmonary bypass and deep hypothermic circulation arrest, but relatively little is known about acute respiratory dysfunction in the patients with type A aortic dissection. This study aims to analyze the independent risk factors of acute respiratory dysfunction after A type aortic dissection surgery and to assess possible prevention and treatment option in the future. Methods Clinical data of the 252 patients including 193 male patients and 59 female patients who underwent type A aortic dissection surgery from February 2009 to October 2010 were collected. The mean age was 47 years. Postoperative acute respiratory dysfunction was defined as oxygenation impairment (PaO2/FiO2 ＜ 150) that occurred within 72 h of surgery except pleural effusion, cardiogenic pulmonary edema, pneumonia, pulmonary embolism and haemato-/ pneumothorax. There were 187 acute A type aortic dissection patients and 65 chronic type A aortic dissection patients. Clinical characteristics including age, gender, weight, height, history of hypertension, history of smoking, preoperative complications such as preoperative shock and acute renal failure, pericardial effusion, previous cardiac surgery, time from event to surgery, malperfusion syndrome, cardiopulmonary time, cross-clamp time,deep hypothermia circulation arrest time, surgical procedure, duration of intensive care unit stay and postoperative complications including tracheotomy, dialysis dependent renal failure and hospital mortality were gathered. Arterial blood analysis, chest X ray, ventilator parameters, number of blood transfusion and flood balance were assayed after operation. All the factors were evaluated by means of univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis to identify relative risk factors of ARD. Results Acute respiratory dysfunction occurred in 32 (12.7% ) patients. The in-hospital mortality was significant difference between acute respiratory dysfunction group and non- acute respiratory dysfunction group (P ＜ 0.05). The value of BMI, incidence of acute aortic dissection, preoperative SBP level, cardio-pulmonary bypass time, aortic clamp time and total arch replacement in acute respiratory dysfunction group were significantly higher than the values in non- acute respiratory dysfunction group. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed blood transfusion more than 10 units and cardio-pulmonary bypass time more than 160 minutes were independent risk factors of early stage acute respiratory dysfunction after type A aortic dissection surgery.Conclusion Acute respiratory dysfunction after type A aortic dissection was a severe early stage postoperative complication and was associated with in-hospital mortality. The patients in acute aortic dissection were prone to have acute respiratory dysfunction. The independent risk factors of acute respiratory dysfunction included blood transfusion more than 10 units and cardio-pulmonary bypass time more than 160 minutes.

Objective To investigate the effect of malignant tumor on neuromuscular block of cisatracurium. Methods Sixty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients with head and neck neoplasms (15 cases with benign tumor, 45 with malignant tumor), aged 18-64 yr, were randomly divided into 4 groups ( n = 15 each): Ⅰ benign tumor group (group B,3 × ED95 ); Ⅱ -Ⅳ different dose cisatracurium group (group C1 (2 × ED95 ), C2 (3 × ED95 ) and C3 (4 ×ED95)). Neuromuscular block was assessed with accelerograph F (TOF-watch SX). Single stimulation of ulnar nerve was used.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of oral and external application of Chinese medicine combined with Ilizarov external fixator and the accordion technique for severe chronic osteomyelitis of the tibia.Methods A total of 78 patients with severe chronic osteomyelitis of the tibia were randomized into a routine treatment group and a combined treatment group, 39 in each group. All the patients in the two groups received external fixation by use of Ilizarov external fixator and the accordion technique. All the patients in the combined treatment group received oralGuyu decoction. The patients who had large wound received vacuum-sealing drainage in the routine treatment group, and vacuum-sealing drainage combined with external application ofShengji-Yuhong plaster in the combined treatment group. All the patients were treated for 8 weeks and followed up for 2 years. The time to wound healing and fracture healing, and the drainage time were compared between the two groups. Functional and radiologic findings were evaluated according to Paley's criteria. The functions of the knee joint and ankle joint were evaluated using the Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) knee score and the scoring system of Baird and Jackson, respectively.Results The time to wound healing (17.33 ± 6.21 dvs. 22.27 ± 8.12 d;t=3.018,P=0.004) and the time to fracture healing (32.25 ± 6.02 weeks vs. 36.37 ± 7.75 weeks;t=2.623,P=0.011), and the drainage time (17.01 ± 4.66 dvs. 21.51 ± 5.23 d;t=4.012, P<0.001) in the combined treatment group were significantly shorter than those in the routine treatment group. According to Paley's criteria, the patients who achieved a score of excellent or good for fracture healing (84.6%vs. 53.8%;χ2=7.282,P=0.007) and function (92.3%vs. 66.7%;χ2=6.369,P=0.012) in the combined treatment group were significantly more than those in the routine treatment group. The scores of the HSS knee score (84.56 ± 7.42vs. 78.81 ± 5.33;t=3.391,P=0.002) and the scoring system of Baird and Jackson (85.01 ± 8.21vs. 79.21 ± 6.78;t=3.402,P=0.024) in the combined treatment group were significantly higher than those in the routine treatment group.Conclusion OralGuyu decoction and external application ofShengji-Yuhong plaster combined with Ilizarov external fixator and the accordion technique can promote recovery of the joint function, fracture healing and wound healing.
