Objective To investigate the influence of early oral feeding (EOF)after laparoscopic surgery in the function status and gastrointestinal living quality of the patients with colorectal cancer,and to clarify the feasibility of EOF after laparoscopic surgery.Methods Sixty-three patients underwent laparoscopic surgery of colorectal cancers participated in the trial.Of these,31 patients received EOF as EOF group,received a clear liquid diet on the first postoperative day followed by a regular diet as tolerated;the other 32 patients received traditional oral feeding (TOF ) as TOF group who were fed with feeding only after the recovery of their postoperative gastrointestinal functions. The nasogastric tube was removed from all patients in both groups immediately after surgery.Self-designed EOF questionnaire data, Karnofsky Scores and Gastrointestinal Quality of Life Index (GIQLI)Scores were used to evaluate the functional status and gastrointestinal living guality of the patients. Results The using time of total parenteral nutrition (TPN),time of postoperative hospital stay,and costs after surgery in EOF group were lower than those in TOF group (P<0.05);but there were no significnat differences in the first passage of flatus and feces time between two groups (P<0.05),also there were no significant differences in the incidence of nasogastric tube reinsertion, pulmonary infection, intestinal obstruction, balance of intestinal bacteria,fistula,incision infection between two groups (P>0.05),and the incidence of abdominal distension was higher than that in TOF group (P<0.05);on postoperative day 7,the albumin recovered faster in EOF group (P<0.05),and on postoperative day 4 and 7,the pro-albumin also recovered faster in EOF group (P<0.05);the patients in EOF group had a higher Karnofsky score (P<0.05)and GIQLI score compared with the patients in TOF group (P<0.05 ). Conclusion EOF after laparoscopic surgery in the patients with colorectal cancers is beneficial for rehabilitation,and it can reduce the risk of hospitalization and saving its costs;it plays an active role in protein recovery,and improves the functional status and gastrointestinal living quality of the patients.

health examination at the Kailuan General Hospital of North China University of Science and Technology,Kailuan Linxi Hospital,Kailuan Zhaogezhuang Hospital,Kailuan Tangjiazhuang Hospital,Kailuan Fan'gezhuang Hospital,Kailuan Jinggezhuang Hospital,Kailuan Lyujiatuo Hospital,Kailuan Linnancang Hospital,Kailuan Qianjiaying Hospital,Kailuan Majiagou Hospital and Kailuan Branch Hospital from July 2006 to December 2015 were collected.There were 75 134 males and 19 130 females,aged (51:±:12)years,with a range of 18-98 years.All the subjects were allocated into 3 groups according to tertiles of FBG,including 31 083 with FBG < 4.82 mmol/L in the T1 group,31 594 with 4.82 mmol/L≤ FBG <5.49 mmol/L in the T2 group and 31 587 with FBG ≥5.49 mmol/L in the T3 group.All participants received the same-order health examinations by the fixed team of doctors in 2006,2008,2010,2012 and 2014 at the same place.Epidemiological investigation,anthropometric parameters and biochemical indicators were collected.Observation indicators:(1) comparisons of clinical characteristics among the 3 groups;(2) follow-up and incidence of liver cancer;(3) situations of non-liver cancer death;(4) risk factors analysis affecting new-onset liver cancer;(5) comparisons of the prognostic value of FBG on liver cancer model;(6) effects of FBG on new-onset liver cancer using competing risk model.Follow-up using physical examination was performed to detect new-onset liver cancer and survival up to December 31,2015.The start time of follow-up was the first health examination in 2016 and the terminal event was new-onset liver cancer,loss of follow-up and death.Measurement data with normal distribution were expressed as Mean±SD,and comparisons among groups were analyzed using the one-way ANOVA.Measurement data with skewed distribution were described as M (range),and comparisons among groups were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test.Count data were described as absolute number and percentage,and comparisons among groups were analyzed using the chi-square test.The cumulative incidence and mortality of new-onset liver cancer were calculated and incidence curve was drawn by the Kaplan-Meier method,and comparisons of incidences among groups were done by the Log-rank test.The incidence of liver cancer in patients with different levels of FBG was calculated by person-year incidence (incidence density).The hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of different levels of FBG (classification variable and continuous variable) on new-onset liver cancer were estimated by the COX proportional hazards regression models.Restrictive cubic spline regression was used to calculate the dose-response relation between the continuous FBG and the risks of new-onset liver cancer.The fitting degree of FBG on new-onset liver cancer model was calculated by the likelihood ratio test and akaike information criterion (AIC).The predictive power of different models was calculated using the C-statistics.The net effects of FBG on incidence of liver cancer were analyzed using cause-specific hazard function (CS) and sub-distribution hazard function (SD).Results (1)

group,showing statistically significant differences among groups (x2 =761.68,F=417.84,1 010.71,747.64,702.73,1 075.06,703.83,x2=447.44,2 109.38,165.97,66.69,78.90,15.50,2 576.95,P<0.05).(2) Follow-up and incidence of liver cancer:all 94 264 participants were followed up for 817 475 person-year,with a total person-year incidence of 3.71/10 000 person-year,1.13/10 000 person-year in the female participants and 4.37/10 000 person-year in the male participants.The incidence density of liver cancer was 2.84/10 000 person-year,3.64/10 000 person-year,4.64/10 000 person-year in the T1,T2,T3 groups,respectively.The cumulative incidence was 2.76‰,3.90‰,4.90‰ in the T1,T2,T3 groups,respectively,showing statistically significant differences among groups (x2=11.95,P < 0.05),showing no statistically significant difference between T1 and T2 groups (x2 =2.73,P>0.05),showing statistically significant differences between T1 and T3 groups,between T2 and T3 groups (x2=11.56,4.10,P<0.05).(3) Situations of non-liver cancer death:during the follow-up,6 880 of 94 264 participants had of non-liver cancer related death,with a non-liver cancer death intensity of 84.16/10 000 person-year.The non-liver cancer death intensity was 79.19/10 000 person-year,68.17/10 000 person-year,105.32/10 000 person-year in the T1,T2,T3 groups.The accumulative mortality was 78.90‰,67.80‰,104.40‰ in the T1,T2,T3 groups,respectively,showing a statistically significant difference among groups (x2 =1 231.46,P < 0.05),showing statistically significant differences between T1 and T2 groups,between T1 and T3 groups (x2 =5.29,4.36,P<0.05),showing no statistically significant difference between T2 and T3 groups (x2 =0.09,P> 0.05).(4) Risk factors analysis affecting new-onset liver cancer.Results of COX proportional hazards regression model analysis showed that continuous FBG was a related factor affecting new-onset liver cancer after adjustment of gender,age,BMI,ALT,drinking,smoking,physical exercise,positive HBsAg,fatty liver,liver cirrhosis,malignant tumor in immediate family (HR =1.06,95% CI:1.01-1.12,P<0.05).After ln transformation of FBG,ln FBG was a related factor affecting new-onset liver cancer (HR=1.81,95% CI:1.21-2.70,P<0.05).Results of restrictive cubic spline regression showed that continous FBG and ln FBG were nonlinear correlated with incidence of liver cancer (RCS_ S1_x2 =7.21,4.36,P<0.05).After adding FBG as classification variable in the COX model,risk of new-onset liver cancer in the T2 and T3 groups was increased compared with the T1 group (HR=1.45,1.67,95% CI:1.07-1.95,1.25-2.22,P < 0.05).(5) Comparisons of the prognostic value of FBG on liver cancer model:multivariate model was constructed after adding risk factors of gender,age,BMI,ALT,drinking,smoking,physical exercise,positive HBsAg,fatty liver,liver cirrhosis,malignant tumor in immediate family,and C-value,-2Log L and AIC were 0.79,6 313.30 and 6 345.30 for the multivariate model.Then FBG variable was added into the multivariate model,and the C-value,-2Log L and AIC of the multivariate model + FBG model were 0.80,6 300.48 and 6 336.48,respectively,showing statistically significant differences compared with the T1 group (x2 =12.82,P<0.05).(6) Effects of FBG on new-onset liver cancer using competing risk model.Results of competing risk model showed that the risk of new-onset liver cancer in the T2 group was not affected compared with the T 1 group (HR =1.42,95%CI:0.98-1.97,P>0.05) and risk of new-onset liver cancer in the T3 group was increased compared with the T1 group with the SD model (HR=1.63,95% CI:1.16-2.26,P<0.05),after adjustment of gender,age,BMI,ALT,drinking,smoking,physical exercise,positive HBsAg,fatty liver,liver cirrhosis,malignant tumor in immediate family.In the CS model,the risk of new-onset liver cancer in the T2 group was not affected compared with the T1 group (HR=1.43,95% CI:0.99-1.97,P>0.05) and risk of new-onset liver cancer in the T3 group was increased compared with the T1 group (HR=1.65,95% CI:1.18-2.23,P< 0.05).Conclusions The elevated FBG is an independent risk factor for the incidence of liver cancer.After considering the competitive risk of death,the risk effect of high-level FBG on the liver cancer still exists.

groups were analyzed using the one-way ANOVA.Measurement data with skewed distribution were described as M (range),and comparisons among groups were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis test.Count data were described as case number and percentage,and comparisons among groups were analyzed using the chi-square test.The cumulative incidence was calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method,and comparisons of incidences among groups were done by the Log-rank test.The incidences of digestive carcinomain patients with different BMI were calculated by person-year incidence (incidence density).The hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of different BMI (continuous variable and classification variable) on new-onset digestive carcinoma were estimated by the COX proportional hazards regression models.Restrictive cubic spline regression was used to calculate the dose-response relation between the continuous variable and the risks of digestive carcinoma.The fitting degree of BMI on new-onset digestive carcinoma model was calculated by the likelihood ratio test and akaike information criterion (AIC).Results (1) Comparisons of clinical characteristics among the 3 groups:age,sex (male),systolic pressure,diastolic pressure,waistline,total cholesterol (TC),triglyceride (TG),fasting plasma glucose (FPG),C reactive protein,cases with smoking,drinking,physical exercise,positive HBsAg,high salt intake,malignant tumor in immediate family were (51± 13)yeas,28 607,(125±20) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa),(80± 11) mmHg,(81±9) cm,(4.9± 1.1) mmol/L,1.05 mmol/L(range,0.75-1.49

group,showing statistically significant differences among groups (F=90.60,x2 =576.34,F=2 768.38,3 570.80,22 319.30,256.99,x2 =9 108.21,F=507.11,x2 =3 219.47,52.78,64.38,13.36,0.76,130.39,9.74,P<0.05).(2) Incidence of digestive carcinoma in the participants:all the 95 177 participants were followed up for 845 085 person-year,1 215 were diagnosed as new-onset digestive carcinoma,with a total person-year incidence of 1.44 thousand person / year.Of 1 215 patients,413 had colorectal-anal cancer,306 had liver cancer,234 had gastric cancer,113 had esophageal cancer,91 had the pancreatic cancer,36 had gallbladder carcinoma or cholangiocarcinoma,25 had intestinal cancer.Three patients had intestinal cancer complicated with colorectal-anal cancer.The person-year incidence of digestive carcinoma was 1.46 thousand person / year,1.37 thousand person / year and 1.53 thousand person / year in the normal BMI group,overweight group and obesity group,respectively.The cumulative incidences of digestive carcinoma in the normal BMI,overweight,obesity group were respectively 11.8‰,10.1‰ and 12.1‰,showing a statistically significant difference among 3 groups (x2=6.13,P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference between the normal BMI group and obesity group (x2 =1.07,P>0.05),and statistically significant differences between the overweight group and normal BMI group and obesity group,respectively (x2=3.90,4.10,P < 0.05).(3) Risk factors analysis affecting new-onset digestive carcinoma.Results of COX proportional hazards regression models showed that continuous BMI was not related factor affecting new-onset digestive carcinoma after adjustment of age,gender,systolic pressure,TC,TG,FPG,smoking,drinking,physical exercise,positive HBsAg,high salt intake,malignant tumor in immediate family (HR=0.99,95%CI:0.98-1.01,P>0.05).After adding BMI as classification variable in the COX model,risk of new-onset digestive carcinoma in the overweight group was reduced compared with normal BMI group (HR =0.88,0.88,95%CI:0.78-1.01,0.77-0.98,P<0.05) and risk of new-onset digestive carcinoma in the obesity group was not affected (HR=1.03,1.04,95%CI:0.88-1.20,0.89-1.22,P>0.05).Results of restrictive cubic spline regression showed a "U" shaped relationship between BMI and incidence risk of digestive carcinoma and the lowest incidence of digestive carcinoma in patients with BMI as 25-27 kg/m2.(4) Comparisons of the fitting degree of BMI on new-onset digestive carcinoma model:multivariate model was constructed after adding risk factors of age,gender,systolic pressure,TC,TG,FPG,smoking,drinking,physical exercise,positive HBsAg,high salt intake,malignant tumor in immediate family,and-2Log L and AIC were 27 175.05 and 27 203.05 for the multivariate model.Then BMI variable was added into the multivariate model,and the-2Log L and AIC of the multivariate model+BMI model were 27 169.53 and 27 201.53,respectively,with a statistically significant difference compared with normal BMI group (x2 =5.52,P<0.05).(5) Stratified analysis of risk factors affecting new-onset digestive carcinoma at different locations.Results of COX proportional hazards regression models showed risks of new-onset digestive carcinoma in the overweight and obesity groups were reduced compared with normal BMI group (HR=0.57,0.42,95%CI:0.38-0.84,0.23-0.79,P<0.05) in the esophageal cancer model.Risks of new-onset digestive carcinoma in the overweight group were reduced compared with normal BMI group (HR=0.72,95%CI:0.55-0.93,P<0.05) and risk of new-onset digestive carcinoma in the obesity group was not affected (HR=1.10,95%CI:0.82-1.47,P>0.05) in the liver cancer model.Conclusions Participants in the overweight group have the lowest incidence of digestive carcinoma,especially in the esophageal cancer and liver cancer model.Incidence of digestive carcinoma is the lowest with BMI as 25-27 kg/m2.
