1.BDNF and TrkB may be new hope for treatment of tumor
International Journal of Surgery 2013;(6):389-394
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor is the ligands of tyrosine kinase receptor B,for the binding of brain-derived neurotrophic factor to tyrosine kinase receptor B receptor,signal transmitted to the nucleus,resulting in a variety of biological effects.Lots of researchs had found that brain-derived neurotrophic factor and tyrosine kinase receptor B expression in malignant tumors more than non-cancerous adjacent tissue and normal tissue,and their effect can promote tumor blood vessel formation,suppress of cell anoikis,promote tumor growth,differentiation and metastasis.The relationship of brain-derived neurotrophic factor and tyrosine kinase receptor B provide a new therapeutic strategy for clinical treatment.From the current basic and clinical research,this treatment strategy has great prospect.

Objective To summarize the pathology of congenital intestinal atresia,the incidence and prenatal diagnosis rate of different types,and to analyze the location and type of intestinal atresia as well as the factors that affect the mortality of various types of intestinal atresia.Method We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 147 children with congenital intestinal atresia from January 2013 to March 2016,including gender,gestational age,parity,prenatal diagnosis or not,delivery methods,hospital admission,surgical methods,findings during surgery,combined malformations,complications and prognosis.They were analyzed statistically.Result A total of 147 cases,including 69 males and 78 females were enrolled.There were 40 premature infants and 107 full term cases.Twins were found in 3 cases.Hospital admission age range from 1 hour to 62 days;admission weight range from 1 480 g to 4 200 g;32 cases were diagnosed before birth.2 cases were abandoned before surgery because of trisomy 21.Postoperatively,the occlusion sites was confirmed as following:67 cases (46.2%) in ileum,43 cases (29.7%) in jejunum,26 cases (17.9%) in duodenum,and 9 cases (6.2%) in colon.The pathological types were as following:type Ⅰ 42 cases (29.0%),type Ⅱ 8 cases (5.5%),type Ⅲa 65 cases (44.8%),type Ⅲb 15 cases (10.3%) and type Ⅳ 15 cases (10.3%).22 cases (14.9%) were died because of refusal of treatment:7 cases were due to short bowel syndrome and meconium peritonitis,6 cases were due to postoperative chronic pseudo-obstruction,and 5 cases had anastomotic leakage requiring reoperation.1 case had postoperative enterocolitis and gave up treatment,1 case had anastomotic leak and sever systemic post-surgery infection and gave up further treatment,and 2 cases gave up because of 21-trisomy syndrome.Conclusion The operation plan of intestinal atresia should be based on the location and type of the blockade;the location and complications of the blockade (pseudo-obstruction,short bowel syndrome,and anastomotic leakage) are important factors affecting the treatment and prognosis.

Objective To investigate the effect of surgical treatment of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) with different surgical ages.Methods From January 2014 to December 2017,105 neonates with NEC in our hospital were divided into early operation group (operation age < 7 days,n =47) and late operation group (7 < operation age < 28 days,n =58).The general data,surgical indications,intraoperative conditions,surgical methods,postoperative complications,and postoperative survival rates were compared between the two groups.Results Among the 105 neonates with NEC,74 were male and 31 were female.The average birth weight was (2 398 ± 927)g,and the average gestational age was (35 ± 4)weeks.Compared with the early operation group,the late operation group had lighter birth weight,smaller gestational age and higher rate of respiratory failure (P < 0.05).There was no significant difference between the two groups in the proportion of surgical indications (diffuse peritonitis,pneumoperitoneum,and medical treatment ineffective) (P > 0.05).The necrosis rate of small intestine in the late operation group was higher than that in the early operation group,but the necrosis rate of small intestine and colon was lower than that in the early operation group (P < 0.05).There was no significant difference in the proportions of the two groups in the surgical methods (enterostomy,intestinal resection and anastomosis and enterostom,exploratory laparotomy,abdominal drainage,and intestinal resection and anastomosis) (P > 0.05).The incidence of intestinal stenosis in early operation group was higher than that in late operation group (P < 0.05).The survival rate of early operation group was 78.7%,while that of late operation group was 63.8%,with no significant difference (P > 0.05).Conclusions The patients with NEC who were operated within 1 week after birth are more common in term infants and with colon necrosis,and are more likely to occur intestinal stenosis after surgery.The patients with NEC who were operated after 1 week of birth are more common in prematures and low-birth-weight patients,and are often associated with respiratory failure.Pneumoperitoneum and diffuse peritonitis are common surgical indications for NEC.Enterostomy is the major surgical method.Choosing the right timing and surgical method can improve the prognosis of patients with NEC.
