Objective Developing an index system to evaluate the community teaching bases of general practice, for the purpose of identifying and completing at least one demonstration teaching base for general practice in each city in 2010. Methods Initial building of the index system by means of Delphi method and experts interview, followed by selection of experts for consultation, statistical analysis on the results of letter inquiries, and rounded up by the establishment of the index system for evaluation in the end. Results The recovery rates of a two-round Delphi questionnaire response are 94.12% and 100.00%respectively. Expert's authority degrees of five indexes are all over 0.8, which suggests high expert's authority. The average coordination coefficient of two-round Delphi experts consultation is 0.262and 0.534 respectively, showing good experts coordination. In the end, the study established four first-class indexes, ten second-class indexes, 41 third-class indexes and five additional indexes. Conclusions The index system is established in view of the current development of community teaching bases. It focuses on evaluating teachers, the teaching process and base's function. The evaluation system provides reference for selecting demonstration community teaching bases of general practice.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of ocular movement disorders in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and neuromyelitis optica (NMO), and explore the clinical application of videonystagmograph (VNG) exami?nation in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of MS. Methods Sixteen MS ,10 NMO and 30 control ( sudden deafness ) patients were enrolled prospectively. Ocular movement disorders including saccades, gaze fixation, smooth pursuits, opto?kinetic nystagmus and spontaneous nystagmus were evaluated by using VNG. Results The positive rate of ocular motility disorders in MS patients detected by VGN was 68.75%. The incidences of abnormalities in saccades, smooth pursuits and optokinetic nystagmus were significantly higher in MS than in control groups (P= 0.000, 0.001 and 0.001, respectively). The positive rate of ocular motility disorders in NMO patients detected by VGN was 80.00%. The incidences of abnormal?ities in saccades, gaze fixation, smooth pursuits and optokinetic nystagmus were significantly higher in NMO than control groups (P=0.000, 0.012, 0.000 and 0.002, respectively). The positive rate of ocular motility disorders was not significant? ly different in MS and MS patients (68.5%vs. 80%,P>0.05). Compared with bedside physical examination, VNG showed a notable higher sensitivity in the detection of ocular motility disorders(68.75% vs. 37.50%). Furthermore, VNG disor?ders might indicate brain lesions undetected by MRI. Conclusion This small sample research indicates that VNG is a valuable tool in the detection of ocular motility disorders as well as brain lesions in MS and NMO patients. However, its role in the differential diagnosis between MS and NMO is not confirmed.

Objective To study the validity of RAND-UCLA (Rand Corporation and University of California at Los Angeles) consensus panel method in developing guidelines of referral indications for low back pain (LBP).Methods Evidence-based clinical guidelines for LBP management at community level and its referral guidelines published since 2001 and other tools were retrieved with varied tools.All clinical guidelines met inclusion criteria were evaluated with clinical studies and evaluation tools (AGREE).An pool of indication items was established based on evidence for developing referral indications for LBP, which were added by RAND-UCLA consensus panel method, and alternative referral indications were selected and clinical guidelines for LBP referral were established.Results A total of 15 copies of clinical guidelines from nine countries or regions were included in it after critical appraisal.Four copies of referral guidelines from two countries were included.Referral indications for LBP were derived directly from the RAND-UCLA consensus panel process, consisting of 44 referral indications for three groups (immediate, urgent and routine referral).Conclusions The RAND-UCLA consensus panel method is a more useful and practical tool in developing clinical guidelines, referral guidelines, which is worthwhile being recommended and spread.

Objective:To analyze prognostic factors of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) combined with portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT) after surgical resection.Methods:The data of 98 patients with HCC combined with PVTT who underwent surgical resection in Ningbo University Affiliated Li Huili Hospital from January 2008 to June 2019 were analyzed retrospectively, including 83 males and 15 females with an average age of 53 years. The survival rate was calculated by Kaplan-Meier method and compared using log-rank test. Cox regression model was used for the multivariate analysis of the prognosis of patients.Results:The 1, 2, and 3-year overall survival rates were 75.9%, 51.5%, and 35.4%, respectively, with a median survival time of 25 months; the 1, 2, and 3-year disease-free survival rates were 35.0%, 16.1%, and 8.6%, respectively, with a median disease-free survival time of 8 months. Multivariate analysis showed that the overall survival of patients with preoperative alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) ≥400 μg/L ( HR=1.760, 95% CI: 1.079-2.873) and hepatic vein tumor thrombus (HVTT, HR=3.809, 95% CI: 1.655-8.765) was poorer after surgical resection (all P<0.05), while the survival of patients with postoperative adjuvant trans-arterial chemoembolization (TACE) ( HR=0.397, 95% CI: 0.220-0.716, P=0.002) was better. Preoperative AFP≥400 μg/L ( HR=2.339, 95% CI: 1.488-3.676) , undergoing HCC resection combined with PVTT dissection ( HR=2.038, 95% CI: 1.090-3.811), and with HVTT ( HR=2.374, 95% CI: 1.160-4.857) (all P<0.05) are independent risk factors for recurrence in patients with HCC combined with PVTT, postoperative adjuvant TACE ( HR=0.535, 95% CI: 0.307-0.933, P=0.027) is a protective factor. Conclusion:Preoperative AFP≥400 μg/L and HVTT are independent risk factors for the prognosis of patients with HCC combined with PVTT. Reasonable selection of surgical methods and postoperative adjuvant TACE may improve the prognosis of patients.

Objective: To investigate DNA damage in the transformed human bronchial epithelial cells (16HBE) induced by hexavalent chromium (Cr⁶⁺⁾ and further elucidate the potential carcinogenesis mechanism of Cr⁶⁺. Methods: 16HBE were treated with different concentration of Cr^{6+ (}0, 0.625, 1.25, 2.5 μmol/L) for 15 weeks. The malignant degrees of transformed cells were identified by the assays for anchorage-independent growth and tumorigenicity. According to the single cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE) assay, the DNA damage rate was calculated. The expression level of 53BP1 was determined by Western blot. Results: Chromium-treated cells could form colonies in soft agar and tumors in nude mice. Compared with the control group, colony formation efficiency of 1.25μmol/L and 2.5 μmol/L Cr⁶⁺-treated cells in soft agar showed significant increases (p<0.05) . The 2.5 μmol/L Cr⁶⁺-treated cells also formed tumors subcutaneously in nude mice. Cr⁶⁺ could cause different degree of DNA damage to 16HBE cells in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, Western blot analyses showed that 53BP1 was aberrantly down-regulated at 2.5 μmol/L dose and has no significant changes at 0.625 μmol/L and 1.25 μmol/L dose under the treatment of Cr⁶⁺. Conclusion The declined expression of 53BP1 may mediate Cr⁶⁺-induced DNA damage and further involved in the cell malignant transformation.

Objective:To study the safety and efficacy of combining portal vein resection and reconstruction (PVR) with resection of perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (PHC).Methods:A total of 104 patients with PHC who underwent hepatectomies for either biliary resection alone or biliary resection combined with PVR from October 2006 to December 2019 at the Department of Hepatopancreatobiliary, Ningbo Medical Center of Lihuili Hospital entered into this study. There were 63 males and 41 females, with the age of (64.4±10.4) years. The control group consisted of 75 patients who underwent biliary resection alone, while the PVR group consisted 29 patients with biliary resection combined with PVR. The patient characteristics and the follow-up outcomes of the two groups were analyzed and compared. Survival analyses were performed using the Kaplan Meier method with the log-rank test.Results:Wedge resection of portal vein, side to side anastomosis in 2 cases, segmental resection and end to end anastomosis in 27 cases. The time taken for PVR and portal vein resection were (12.7±2.9)(range 8 to 18)min and (20.7±7.3)(range 8 to 38) mm, respectively. The estimated blood loss for the PVR group was significantly more than the control group [ M( Q1, Q3)] 800.0 (600.0, 1 500.0) ml vs. 600.0(500.0, 1 000.0) ml ( P<0.05). Based on postoperative pathological studies, the proportion of lymph node metastasis was significantly higher in the PVR group than the control group (58.6% vs. 32.0%, P<0.05). Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅲ and above complications were 30.7%(23/75) and 34.5%(10/29) in the control and PVR groups, respectively ( P>0.05). The re-operation and postoperative 90 days mortality rates were 9.3%(7/75) and 2.7%(2/75) in the control group, compared with 3.4%(1/29) and 0 in the PVR group, respectively (both P>0.05). The 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rates were 81.1%, 44.8% and 36.4% respectively for the control group and 78.1%, 35.9% and 31.4% for the PVR group (χ 2=0.33, P=0.570). Conclusion:When compared to biliary resection alone, biliary resection combined with PVR did not significantly increase postoperative complication and mortality rates, but with comparable long-term survival outcomes. Combined biliary resection with PVR was safe and improved the resection rate in selected patients with locally advanced PHC.

Objective:To evaluate the short-term efficacy of split liver transplantation (SLT) in patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF).Methods:The clinical data of 9 ACLF patients receiving SLT in our center from Mar 2021 to May 2022 were retrospectively analyzed to evaluate its safety and efficacy.Results:The preoperative APASL ACLF Research consortium (AARC) score of the 9 ACLF patients was 8 points in 1 case, 9 points in 3 cases, 10 points in 3 cases, 11 points in 1 case and 12 points in 1 case, 7 cases were in AARC-ACLF grade 2, and 2 cases in grade 3.In-situ liver splitting was performed in 9 deceased donors, including 4 classical split cases, 5 full size split cases. Among these 9 ACLF patients, 2 received left half liver transplantation, 3 received right half liver transplantation, and 4 received extended right lobe liver transplantation. After transplantation, all 9 recipients were discharged fully recovered, 1 case developed Clavien grade Ⅳa complication and 2 cases developed Clavien grade Ⅲb complication.After SLT treatment the median postoperative hospital stay was 27 days, the 1-year survival rate was 100%, and the organ survival rate was 88.9%.Conclusion:Split liver transplantation is a safe and feasible treatment method for ACLF patients.

Objective:To explore the feasibility of technological modification and innovation of full-left/full-right liver splitting in situ for donors and examine the safety of clinical application for liver transplantation (LT).Methods:From March 2021 to June 2022, clinical and surgical data are retrospectively reviewed for 27 donors undergoing full-left/full-right liver splitting in situ and the corresponding 49 recipients undergoing full-left/full-right LT.According to the split liver technique used in donor liver surgery, they are divided into conventional split group(group A, 13 cases)and innovative split group(group B, 14 cases). The corresponding recipients are divided into two groups of recipient C(25 cases)and recipient D(24 cases). General profiles, intraoperative findings, type of vascular allocation and short-term outcomes in two groups are compared.After full-size split liver transplantation(fSLT), follow-ups continued until the end of September 2022.Results:There are 23 males and 4 females in donors.The causes of mortality for donors are traumatic head injury(12 cases)cerebrovascular accident(13 cases)and anoxia encephalopathy(2 cases). Baseline characteristics of two groups indicate that body weight and body mass index(BMI)are higher in group B and blood sodium level is lower than that in group A( P<0.05). No statistical differences exist for the others.Liver splitting time is significantly shorter in group B than that in group A(175 vs.230 min, P=0.022). No significant inter-group difference exists in type of vascular allocation.Retrohepatic inferior vena cava(IVC)is split in one case in group A and 10 cases in group B( P=0.001). Among 20 cases of right hemiliver requiring a reconstruction of segment Ⅴ/Ⅷ venous outflow, 12 cases in group A and 3 cases in group B are reconstructed with conventional independent bridging method(independent type)while another 5 cases in group B reconstruct with innovated technique by bridging Ⅴ/Ⅷ vein for splitting IVC with iliac vessel and molding all outflows as one for anastomosis(combined typ e). There is significant inter-group difference( P=0.004). No significant differences exist in operative duration, anhepatic phase or blood loss between groups C and B, except for T tube retaining in 7 cases of group A and 14 cases of group D( P=0.032). Twelve cases developed a total of 26 instances of≥Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅲ complications.Of which, 7 cases in group C and 5 cases in group D show no significant difference in postoperative morbidity.However, for serious biliary complications(≥Clavien Dindo grade Ⅲ), there are 6 cases in group C versus none in group D( P=0.016). Two cases died from postoperative complication with a postoperative mortality rate of 4.1%.Postoperative hospital stay is similar in two groups.And accumulates 6/12-month survivals were 95.9% and 87.7% for grafts and 95.9% and 92.4% for recipients respectively. Conclusions:Operative duration of full-left/full-right liver splitting in situ tends to shorten with an accumulation of a certain amount of cases.Technological modification and innovation in IVC splitting and segment Ⅴ/Ⅷ vein reconstruction should be further validated as both feasible and safe by short-term outcomes of the corresponding recipients.
