Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy of laparoscopic and open surgery in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) at specific sites of liver.Methods:Data of patients with HCC undergoing hepatectomy in Mengchao Hepatobiliary Hospital of Fujian Medical University from September 2014 to May 2019 were retrospective analyzed. A total of 205 patients were enrolled, including 174 males and 31 females, aged (56.7±11.3) years. According to the surgical methods, patients were divided into laparoscopic group ( n=105) and open group ( n=100). The Child-Pugh score, maximum tumor diameter, tumor location, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative complication rate, liver function(glutamate transaminase, alanine transaminase, etc.) and length of hospital stay were compared between the two groups. Postoperative survival and recurrence were followed up. Survival curves and rates were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier and log-rank test. Results:There were no significant differences in Child-Pugh score, maximum tumor diameter, tumor location between the two groups. Compared to the open group, the laparoscopic group had a decreased blood loss [100 (50, 200) ml vs 150 (100, 200) ml], a lower incidence of postoperative complications[7.6%(8/105) vs 17.0%(17/100)], and a shorter hospital stay [(8.6±1.9) days vs (13.0±3.4) days](all P<0.05). The postoperative glutamate transaminase and alanine transaminase levels were lower in the laparoscopic group than those in the open group. The 1, 3, 5-year overall survival and recurrence-free survival were not significantly different between the two groups (χ 2=0.56, 0.21, P=0.456, 0.648). Conclusion:Laparoscopic surgery in the treatment of HCC at specific sites of liver is a safe, feasible and effective procedure.

Objective:To investigate the effects of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) on hepatic sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs) proliferation, migration, and hepatocyte proliferation.Methods:Eighteen male C57BL/6 mouse aged 6-8 weeks old were underwent partial hepatectomy. Cell proliferation and HO-1 expression in residual liver tissue were detected by immunofluorescence histochemistry at 0 d, 2 d and 4 d after operation. In vitro, LSECs were transfected with adenovirus carrying HO-1 gene (HO-1 group), and the cells were transfected with empty vector adenovirus and the non-transfected cells were used as control. In addition, LSECs from different transfection groups were co-cultured with hepatocyte without contact to evaluate the effect of HO-1 expression on promoting hepatocyte proliferation. Western Blotting and RT-PCR were used to detect the protein and mRNA expression of HO-1, inhibitor of DNA binding and or differentiation (Id1), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and Wnt2. Cell proliferation was detected by EdU. The ability of cell migration was detected by Transwell migration assay.Results:Compared with 0 d after hepatectomy, LSECs proliferation and HO-1 expression within LSECs were increased significantly at 4 d after surgery. EdU positive rate of LSECs in HO-1 group (27.20±4.80)% was higher than that in empty vector group (12.47±3.30)% and non-transfected group (15.97±2.50)%. The number of LSECs migration in HO-1 group (258.70±36.56) was higher than that in empty vector group (122.00±38.16) and non-transfected group (107.70±30.01). The protein and mRNA expression level of HO-1, Id1, HGF and Wnt2 in HO-1 group were higher than that in empty vector group and non-transfected group. EdU positive rate of hepatocytes that co-cultured with LSECs in HO-1 group (18.33±2.52) % was higher than that in empty vector group (11.33±1.53)% and non-transfected group (11.7±2.08)%. The differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Up-regulation of HO-1 promoted LSECs proliferation and migration of, as well as up-regulation of HO-1 in LSECs enhanced the capacity of LSECs to promote hepatocyte proliferation.

Objective:To analyze the impact of lymph node dissection on textbook outcomes (TO) and the prognosis of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 376 ICC patients who underwent hepatectomy in 4 medical centers, including Mengchao Hepatobiliary Hospital of Fujian Medical University et al, from December 2011 to December 2017 were collected. There were 242 males and 134 females, aged 57(range, 48-63)years. According to the criteria of TO, patients were classified as two cate-gories, including patients achieving TO and not achieving TO. Measurement data with normal distri-bution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range) or M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were represented as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test, Yates adjusted chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the non-parameter rank sum test. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted using the Logistic regression model. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw survival curve. Survival analysis was conducted using the Log-rank test. Results:(1) TO situations. Of the 376 ICC patients who underwent hepatectomy, 199 cases achieved TO, including 40 cases with lymph node dissection and 159 cases without lymph node dissection, 177 cases did not achieve TO, including 76 cases with lymph node dissection and 101 cases without lymph node dissection. (2) Influencing factors for TO after hepatectomy of ICC patients. Results of multivariate analysis showed that lymph node dissection, microvascular invasion, nerve invasion and the volume of intraoperative blood loss >800 mL were independent risk factors for achieving TO after hepatec-tomy of ICC patients ( odds ratio=2.22, 2.95, 3.58, 4.09,95% confidence interval as 1.34-3.69, 1.43-6.07, 1.40-9.17, 1.35-12.43, P<0.05). Of the 116 patients with lymph node dissection, 40 cases achieved TO, 103 cases achieved R 0 resection, 38 cases had postoperative complications, 67 cases had delayed hospital stay. The above indicators were 159, 255, 41, 65 of 260 patients without lymph node dissection. There were significant differences in the above indicators between patients with and without lymph node dissection ( χ2=22.90, 15.16, 13.95, 37.78, P<0.05). (3) Follow-up. All the 376 patients were followed up for 19(range, 1-74)months. Of 199 patients achieving TO, the 1-, 2-and 3-year survival rates of 40 patients with lymph node dissection were 54.0%, 36.6% and 26.1%, respectively, versus 67.7%, 42.7% and 34.4% of 159 patients without lymph node dissection, showing no significant difference between them ( χ2=1.89, P>0.05). Of 177 patients not achieving TO, the 1-, 2-and 3-year survival rates of 76 cases with lymph node dissection were 58.9%, 25.7% and 10.3%, respectively, versus 53.0%, 28.5% and 17.2% of 101 cases without lymph node dissection, showing no significant difference between them ( χ2=0.25, P>0.05). Conclusions:Lymph node dissec-tion, microvascular invasion, nerve invasion and the volume of intraoperative blood loss >800 mL are independent risk factors for achieving TO after hepatectomy of ICC patients. Lymph node dissec-tion may increase the postoperative complication rate, prolong the hospital stay and decrease the rate of achieving TO. However, it does not affect the prognosis of patients.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the chronic toxicity and carcinogenicity of paclobutrazol in SD rats. METHODS: Specific pathogen free SD rats at the age of weaning were randomly divided into control group and low-,medium-,and high-dose groups according the body weight,with 120 rats in each group,half male and half female. The study of combined chronic toxicity and carcinogenicity test in rats was carried out in 2 years by feeding the rats with paclobutrazol. The doses in the 4 groups were 0. 0,11. 7,48. 5 and 193. 9 mg·kg~(-1)·d~(-1) for female rats and 0. 0,13. 5,54. 2 and 241. 9 mg·kg~(-1)·d~(-1) for male rats. The body weight of rats was weighted during the experiment. The blood routine,blood biochemistry,organ coefficient and histopathology examinations were performed at the end of paclobutrazol exposure. The mortality and tumor incidence in rats were calculated. RESULTS: The decrease of body weights in female and male rats in dose groups was observed at 1-2 weeks after the experiment,compared with the same sex control group at the same time point( P < 0. 05).At the end of the exposure,the body weights of female and male rats in all three dose groups were lower than that in the same sex rats of control group( P < 0. 05). The mortality rates of female and male rats in the four groups were not significantly different( P > 0. 05). The brain organ coefficients of female rats in the three dose groups were higher than those female rats in the control group( P < 0. 05). The organ coefficients of liver,kidney and ovary of female rats in highdose group were higher than that of female rats in control group( P < 0. 05). The level of total bilirubin in male rats in the three dose groups was lower than that in control group( P < 0. 05). The organ coefficients of brain and lung in male rats in the medium-and high-dose groups were higher than that in the control group( P < 0. 05). The liver organ coefficient in male rats in the high-dose group was higher than that in the control group( P < 0. 05). A total of 244 rats had 402 spontaneous tumors with a tumor incidence rate of 50. 8%(244/480). The incidence of tumor in control,low-,mediumand high-dose groups were 61. 7%( 74/120), 42. 5%( 51/120), 50. 0%( 60/120) and 49. 2%( 59/120)respectively. There was no statistical significance in the incidence of tumors in three dose groups compared with that of the control group. CONCLUSION: Under the dose conditions designed in this study,the lowest observed adverse effect level of paclobutrazol were 11. 7 and 13. 5 mg · kg~(-1)· d~(-1) in females and males respectively. Paclobutrazol was not found carcinogenic to SD rats.
