Objective To evaluate the causation and management of complications caused by enteral nutrition (EN)after stomach cancer surgery.Methods The clinical data of 195 gastric cancer patients which used EN after surgery were analyzed retrospectively from September 2002 to April 2008 in our hospital.Results Among the 195 patients,29(14.87%)developed abdominal distention,17(8.71%)diarrhoea,Six(3.07%)metabolic complica tions,three anastomotie leakage,1 patient with colon perforation.Conclusion These complications caused by EN after stomach cancer surgery associated with the stress of surgery,the speed and concentration of nutrition infusion, patients'metabolic conditions and other related factors.

Objective To study the feasibility and timing of early laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) for the patients with mild-to-moderate acute pancreatitis with gallbladder stone.Methods 26 patients with mild-to-moderate acute pancreatitis with gallbladder stone underwent early laparoscopic cholecystectomy.The patients were initially treated with conservative treatment.When the diagnosis was confirmed and the patients were stable,LC was carried out within 48 hours of hospitalization.The results were compared with a delayed group of patients who received delayed LC for acute pancreatitis.Results All the LC operations were successfully carried out.There were no significant differences between the two groups in alkaline phosphatase,alanine aminotransferase,aspartate aminotransferase,blood amylase and urine armylase on postoperative day 1,3,5,7.Patients who received early laparoscopic cholecystectomy had a shorter hospital stay.There were no significant differences between the two groups in the operation time,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative complication rates and recurrence of acute pancreatifis.Conclusion After CBD stones have been ruled out,it is safe and feasible to carry out early laparoscopic cholecystectomy within 48 hours of hospital admission for patients with mild-to-moderate acute pancreatitis with gallbladder stone.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the levels of visfatin in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and to explore the relationship between visfatin levels and caroid atherosclerosis in CKD patients. METHODS: A total of 180 CKD patients (102 non-dialyzed patients and 78 dialysis patients) and 42 healthy subjects enrolled in this study. The serum levels of visfatin, IL-6, and high sensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP) were measured by ELISA. Common carotid arteries intima-media thickness (CCA-IMT), cross-sectional calculated intima-media thickness (c IMT) area and atherosclerotic plaque were detected by non-invasive high-resolution B-mode ultrasonography. RESULTS: The serum levels of visfatin, IL-6 and hsCRP were significantly increased in CKD patients compared with age matched healthy subjects (P<0.01). The serum levels of visfatin, IL-6 and hsCRP in the dialyzed patients were significantly higher than those in non-dialyzed patients (P<0.05). Visfatin levels increased with the progression of renal dysfunction and inversely related to creatinine clearance (Ccr) in non-dialyzed patients (r=-0.415, P<0.05). Patients with carotid artery plaques showed significantly higher levels of visfatin[(34.22±7.96) ng/mL)] compared with those without plaques [(28.24±6.18) ng/mL, P<0.05]. The serum levels of visfatin were closely correlated with IL-6 (r=0.548, P<0.001), hsCRP (r=0.430, P<0.001), CCA-IMT (r=0.462, P<0.05), and c IMT area (r=0.411, P<0.05). After adjusting for GFR, age, gender, and other risk factors associated with atherosclerosis, multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that serum visfatin is a independent risk factor for CCA-IMT (β=0.433, P<0.01) and c IMT area (β=0.412, P<0.01). CONCLUSION The serum level of visfatin increase with the progression of CKD and should be considered to be a new risk factor for atherosclerosis in CKD.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of multi-disciplinary single center's CCCG-HB-2016 regimen in the treatment of hepatoblastoma (HB) in children.Methods:Clinical data of 36 HB patients treated with CCCG-HB-2016 program from Aug 2016 to March 2020 were analyzed.Results:These 36 patients included 20 boys and 16 girls. The serum AFP was all higher than 2 792 ng/ml,there was a correlation between AFP and tumor risk stratification ( H=14.973, P<0.05). Twenty eight cases (77.78%) were epithelial type and 8 cases (22.22%) were mixed epithelial mesenchymal type.All children were treated by tumor resection combined with chemotherapy, and there was a correlation between tumor risk stratification and surgical resection of liver lobe ( H=8.847, P<0.05). The probability of bone marrow suppression in the low-risk group was 58.33% (35/60),that in the intermediate-risk group was 73.49% (61/83) and in the high-risk group was 80.23% (69/86).All 36 cases were followed up to March 31, 2020,with an average follow-up of 21.9 months and the median survival was 22.5 months.The overall survival rate (OS) and event-free survival rate (EFS) were 97.2% and 83.3% respectively. Conclusions:The multidisciplinary CCCG-HB-2016 regimen was with a high success rate and along with a high incidence of bone marrow suppression.

Objective:To compare the short-term clinical effect of gastrointestinal or enterointestinal dominant channels after radical proximal gastrectomy combined with dual-channel anastomosis for upper gastric cancer.Methods:A total of 72 patients in Hefei Second People's Hospital from Jan 2017 to Jul 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, including 29 patients in the total gastrectomy group, and 43 patients in the group of radical proximal gastrectomy+dual-channel anastomosis, and by imaging results it was futher stratified into gastrointestinal dominant channel sub-group (26 cases) and intestinal dominant channel sub-group (17 cases).Results:The number of lymph node dissection in the total gastrectomy group was more than that in the proximal stomach group (27.9±3.2 vs. 25.4±2.9, t=3.441, P<0.05). While the 12 months post operation albumin [(36.1±2.4) g/L vs. (34.1 ± 2.3) g/L, t=3.526, P=0.001], hemoglobin [(122.9 ± 6.9) g/L vs. (115.9 ± 6.0) g/L, t=4.444, P=0.000], vitamin B12 [(349.0±21.7) pmol/ml vs. (77.9±8.5) pmol/ml, t=63.931, P=0.000] level, and the body mass index [(23.01±0.78) kg/m 2vs. (21.95±0.67) kg/m 2, t=5.978, P=0.000] decline level was unfavored ( P<0.05). The 12 months post operation vitamin B12 level, body mass index, albumin and hemoglobin level had no statistical difference in the two subgroups of proximal gastrectomy (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy with double tract reconstruction for proximal gastric cancer is safe and reliable, which can effectively improve the postoperative nutritional status, prevent postoperative anemia.

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent stem cells that exist widely in the human body, which can self-renewal and differentiate into different types of cell. Due to its advantages of tumor tissue tropism and easy to be engineered, it has been widely used in cancer treatment research recently. However, the tumor-promoting or anti-tumor effect of MSCs is controversial, especially for unmodified MSCs. Therefore, researchers are more inclined to use MSCs as carriers to engineer them. With the deepening in understanding of vesicles, it is found that the vesicles derived from MSCs seem to have greater advantages as carriers. Although the current research of MSCs in the treatment of tumors has been initiated in the clinic, there are still many problems to be solved in the pre-clinical application.

To explore the correlation between hyperuricemia and renal damage in patients with lupus nephritis (LN).
 Methods: The data for clinical features, laboratory and renal pathological examination were collected from 177 renal biopsy-proven LN patients with or without hyperuricemia and were retrospectively analyzed to determine the correlation between serum uric acid and renal damage.
 Results: LN patients with hyperuricemia group had higher rate of hypertension and higher level of blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine while lower estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and lower positive rate of anti-U1RNP antibody (P<0.05). In the LN patients with hyperuricemia group, renal pathological scores, including acitive index, chronic index and tubulointerstitial lesions, were higher than those in the LN patients without hyperuricemia group (P<0.05). The level of serum uric acid was positively correlated with serum creatinine, renal pathological classification and renal pathological scores while negatively correlated with eGFR (P<0.05).
 Conclusion: LN patients with hyperuricemia are associated with more serious renal damage. Hyperuricemia is an important predictor for poor prognosis in patients with LN.
