Background:Gastric cancer is a common gastrointestinal malignancy. The detection rate of early gastric cancer is still low in China,and some gastric cancer patients visit the hospital due to acute disease,such as gastric perforation. Aims:To investigate the influence of acute disease on long-term prognosis in gastric cancer patients. Methods:A total of 318 patients with gastric cancer from Jan. 2009 to Jan. 2015 at Shaoxing People’s Hospital were enrolled,and were divided into acute disease group and non-acute disease group. Clinicopathological characteristics were analyzed. Patients were followed up,and survival rate was compared between the two groups. Results:Fifty-three(16. 7% )patients had acute disease,and the remaining 265(83. 3% )patients were without acute disease. Compared with non-acute disease group, percentage of TNM Ⅳ stage was significantly increased(P < 0. 05),and percentage of radical surgery was significantly decreased in acute disease group(P < 0. 05). Kaplan-Meier assay showed that survival rate in acute disease group was significantly decreased when compared with non-acute disease group( P < 0. 05). After adjusting the TNM stage and surgical treatment,no significant difference in survival rate was found between the two groups. Conclusions:Gastric cancer patients with acute disease have lower survival rate. Acute disease may be not an independent prognostic factor, higher TNM stage and lower proportion of radical surgery are the main reasons for poor prognosis in gastric cancer patients with acute disease.

This study was aimed to diffuse the lung and promote urination for the observation of cardiopulmonary re-lated index change of cor pulmonale rats to further explore the treatment effect on the pulmonary function, pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and the influence of right heart hypertrophy of rats, in order to further illustrate the ef-fect of diffusing the lung and promoting urination for cor pulmonale. Sixty Wistar rats were randomly divided into the control group, model group and Xiao-Qing-Long decoction (XQLD) group with 20 rats in each group. The AniRes2003 animal lung function analysis system was applied to measure the pulmonary function of rats. And the multi-guide physiological recorder was used in the recording of the pulmonary artery pressure of rats. The conven-tional weighing method was applied to calculate and obtain the change of right heart hypertrophy. The results showed that compared to the control group, symptoms in the model group became severe obviously, which include reduced activity, slow movement and occasional airway sputum sound, and the right heart hypertrophy index of the model group increased obviously (P < 0.01). Compared to the model group, the pulmonary function and pulmonary artery pressure of the XQLD group have obvious difference (P< 0.05). It was concluded that to diffuse the lung and pro-mote urination can effectively improve the pulmonary function, PAH and the right heart hypertrophy index of rats with cor pulmonale (fluid retention). The effect of this method is definite in the treatment of cor pulmonale.

Radial-cephalic arteriovenous fistula (RCAVF) is considered the first choice for hemodialysis vascular access because of its high patency rate and less complications.But up to 50% of the fistula can not mature.This is mainly due to persistent low blood flow or difficulty in cannulation can not lead to adequate hemodialysis.Inflow or outflow stenosis,anastomotic stenosis,exceedingly deep location of the vein,flow diversion into accessory veins are the common causes of impaired maturation.In addition,thrombosis is a common of stenosis.Preoperative assessment by physical examination and ultrasound examination of blood vessels,select the appropriate blood vessels for the fistula is of great significance.Choose the appropriate treatment for the cause of maturation disorders.Postoperative aspirin is widely used to prevent thrombosis and reduce the occurrence of stenosis;Surgery has the advantage of bypassing the damaged area but creating a new stoma;in recent years,endovascular technique because of its characteristics of minimally invasive in most of the time is the first choice.In this paper,the definition,etiology,diagnosis and treatment of fistula maturation disorder are reviewed.
