Objective To investigate the effect of oxaliplatin combined with capecitabine on the rate of local control and anal sphincter preservation of rectal cancer.Methods Eighty patients with stage Ⅱ/Ⅲ colorectal adenocarcinoma were randomly divided into control group and observation group,each group in 40cases.The patients in the observation group were treated with oxaliplatin and capecitabine.The control group was treated with oxaliplatin combined with leucovorin and 5-fluorouracil.The patients were followed up for 2~4 weeks.The local curative effect, perioperative biochemical index,R0 (excision margin without cancer cell) resection rate and sphincter preserving rate were compared between the two groups.Results In the control group, the short-term curative effect was 47.50%, which in the observation group was 60.00%, the difference was statistically significant (x2=4.22,P<0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in the biochemical indicators between the two groups (all P>0.05).The R0 resection rates of the control group and the observation group were 62.50%,57.50% (x2=0.67,P>0.05).The anal sphincter preservation rates of the control group and observation group were 32.50%,37.50% respectively (x2=0.67,P>0.05).The local control rates of the control group and observation group were 90.00%,92.50%,which of the observation group was higher than the control group, but the difference was not statistically significant(x2 =0.32,P>0.05).Conclusion The combination of oxaliplatin and capecitabine can improve the local curative effect in patients with rectal cancer without affecting the biochemical indicators of perioperative patients, but the effect of R0 resection rate and preserving anus rate in patients with rectal cancer compared with the chemotherapy regimen of FOLFOX4 has no significant difference, it is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective To establish normal range of components of cord blood cells in healthy fetuses from 19 to 37 weeks' gestation and to provide proof for diagnosis of hematological disorders in prenatal fetuses and premature infants.Methods Twelve hematological parameters were determined in 182 fetuses using Coulter GENS system 2 full automated blood cell counter,and the blood cells were classified by microscope.Results The number of white blood cell(WBC) was increased gradually from 3.58?10~9/L to 5.76?10~9/L with the gestational weeks increasing from 19 to 37 weeks.The differential counts indicated that the lymphocytes represented the main population.The number of lymphocytes and normoblast was decreased gradually and that of neutrophils was increased gradually.The numbers of monocytes,eosinophils and basophils remained stable as the increasing of gestational weeks.The red blood cell(RBC),hemoglobin(HGB) and hematocrit(HCT) were increased gradually but mean corpuscular volume(MCV) was decreased.The differences between mean corpuscular hemoglobin(MCH),platelet volume distribution width(PDW),mean platelet volume(MPV),plateletcrit(PCT) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration(MCHC) were not significant among different fetuses' ages.Conclusion The components of cord blood cells in healthy fetuses are dynamic and the establishment normal range of components of cord blood cells in healthy fetuses is helpful to diagnose the disorders in prenatal fetuses and premature infants.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Jiawei Simiao powder (JWSMP) combined with celecoxib for the treatment of acute gouty arthritis by conducting a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Methods: The Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure Databases, Chinese Scientific Journal Database, Wanfang, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, PubMed, and Web of Science databases were searched from inception until December 2023. Continuous variables were analyzed using the mean difference (MD) for analysis, and dichotomous variables were used as risk ratios. Data with similar characteristics were pooled for meta-analysis, and heterogeneity was assessed using I2. The Cochrane Handbook was used to assess the risk of bias and quality. RevMan 5.3 software was used to perform the meta-analysis. Results: Thirteen RCTs involving 1007 patients were included in the study. The quality of the included studies was low (unclear randomization processes and insufficient blinding reporting). The group receiving JWSMP combined with celecoxib showed significantly lower levels of serum uric acid (SUA, MD = −66.32, 95% confidence interval (CI): −80.97 to −51.67, P < .001), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR, MD = −6.05, 95% CI: −8.29 to −3.82, P < .001), C-reactive protein (CRP, MD = −7.39, 95% CI: −11.15, −3.63, P < .001), and joint pain score (VAS score, MD = −2.14, 95% CI: −2.4 to −1.88, P < .001) compared to celecoxib alone. Additionally, the JWSMP combined group had a higher total effective rate (risk ratio = 1.22, 95% CI: 1.14 to 1.29, P < .001) and fewer adverse compared to celecoxib alone. Conclusions JWSMP combined with celecoxib is more effective than celecoxib alone in improving the total efficacy rate, alleviating joint pain, and improving SUA, ESR, and CRP levels. JWSMP also reduced the occurrence of adverse events caused by celecoxib. However, the quality of the included studies was low, highlighting the need for further high-quality research with larger sample sizes and robust methodologies, such as double-blind randomization, to confirm these findings.

Objective:To investigate the clinical value of totally laparoscopic exclusion of splenic artery aneurysm combined with pericardial devascularization for portal hypertension com-plicated with splenic aneurysm.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 17 patients with portal hypertension complicated with splenic aneurysm who were admitted to 2 medical centers (15 cases in Shenzhen University General Hospital and 2 cases in Wuhan First Hospital) from January 2013 to May 2020 were collected. There were 7 males and 10 females, aged (59±14)years. All patients underwent totally laparoscopic exoclusion of splenic artery aneurysm combined with pericardial devascularization. Observation indicators : (1) surgical and postoperative conditions; (2) complications; (3) follow-up. Follow-up was conducted by out-patient examiantion and telephone interview to detect the effect of exclusion of arterial tumor, and blood re-flow, portal vein thrombosis and survival of patients 3 months after operation. The follow-up was up to December 2020. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Results:(1) Surgical and postoperative conditions. All 17 patients successfully completed the operation, without perioperative death. The operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss of 17 patients were (181±30)minutes, 187(range, 90?420)mL. The white blood cell count, red blood cell count, hemoglobin, serum albumin were (9±4)×10 9/L, (3.5±0.9)×10 12/L, (86±17)g/L, (36±7)g/L on the postoperative day 3. Time to postoperative abdominal drainage tube removal and duration of post-operative hospital stay were (7±4)days and (11±4)days. (2) Complications. All 17 patients had ascites after surgery, which were improved after oral treatment with diuretics. There was no complication such as intra-abdominal hemorrhage, gastrointestinal fistula, pleural effusion, infection, abscess formation, fever and vascular embolism. (3) Follow-up. All the 17 patients were followed up for 28.6(range, 7.0?84.0)months. During the follow-up, the splenic aneurysm cavity of all patients was completely isolated, no blood re-flow and no portal vein thrombosis was observed, and no patient died. Conclusion:Totally laparoscopic exclusion of splenic artery aneurysm combined with pericardial devascularization is safe and feasible in the treatment of portal hypertension complicated with splenic aneurysm.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy and influence factors of direct pulp capping using a bioactive ceramic in mature permanent teeth with carious pulp exposure, in order to explore the feasibility and indications of vital pulp therapy for such teeth.Methods:From January 2016 to September 2017, 57 patients (57 teeth) with carious pulp exposure in mature permanent teeth were selected from the Department of Cariology and Endodontology, Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology. All the teeth were preoperatively diagnosed as deep caries with normal pulp or reversible pulpitis. After rubber dam isolation, all the carious dentin was removed and the exposed pulp tissue was observed under microscope. Hemostasis should be achieved within 3 min by using 2.5% sodium hypochlorite cotton pellets with a gently press. A resin composite restoration was performed immediately or 2 weeks later after direct pulp capping by using a bioceramic material (iRoot BP Plus). The patients were re-examined 12 to 50 months after operation (average 30 months) and the outcomes were evaluated by symptoms, clinical examination and X-ray. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to calculate the success rate and influence factors were analyzed by Log-Rank test.Results:Totally 50 patients [age (32±13) years old (13-68 years old), 12 males and 38 females] received the follow-up examination more than one year. The overall success rate was 90% (45/50) and the success rates at 1 year, 2 years, 3 years and more were 98%, 89% and 81%, respectively. Age, gender, symptom, tooth and cavity type, pulpal exposure size and coronal restoration material had no significant correlations with the treatment outcome ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Direct pulp capping of mature permanent teeth with carious pulp exposure by using iRoot BP Plus might have high success rate. There′s no significant correlations between the major clinical factors and the treatment outcome.
