Objective:To investigate the application value of barbed suture in reinforcing anastomosis during laparoscopic radical resection of rectal cancer.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 215 patients with rectal cancer who underwent laparoscopic radical resection in the Renji Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine from March 2016 to December 2018 were collected. There were 122 males and 93 females, aged (62.3±0.7)years, with a range from 20 to 75 years. Of 215 patients, 86 patients undergoing laparoscopic radical resection of rectal cancer with barbed suture for anastomosis were allocated into barbed suture group, and 129 patients undergoing laparoscopic radical resection of rectal cancer without reinforced anastomosis were allocated into traditional group, respectively. Observation indicators: (1) intraoperative situations; (2) postoperative situations; (3) follow-up. Follow-up using outpatient examination and telephone interview was performed to detect postoperative complications, anastomotic healing and patency of patients up to May 2019. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were described as M (range). Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the chi-square test. Ordinal data were analyzed using the Friedman non-parametric test. Results:(1) Intraoperative situations: patients in the two groups underwent laparoscopic radical resection of rectal cancer successfully, without conversion to open laparotomy. The volume of intraoperative blood loss, operation time, distance between the anastomosis and dentate line, length of auxiliary incision of the barbed suture group were (127±9)mL, (160.2±3.8)minutes, (3.56±0.15)cm, (4.12±0.11)cm, respectively, versus (114±6)mL, (128.9±2.4)minutes, (3.67±0.12)cm, (4.25±0.09)cm of the traditional group. There was a significant difference in the operation time between the two groups ( t=7.33, P<0.05), but no significant difference in the other indicators between the two groups ( t=1.32, 0.61, 0.94, P>0.05). (2) Postoperative situations: the time to first flatus after surgery and duration of postoperative hospital stay of the barbed suture group were (72.5±2.2)hours and (8.1±0.5)days, respectively, versus (76.2±1.7)hours and (8.0±0.5)days of the traditional group, showing no significant difference between the two groups ( t=1.33, 0.87, P>0.05). (3) Follow-up: 215 patients were followed up for 6-12 months, with a median follow-up time of 8 months. In the barbed suture group, 2 patients had postoperative anastomotic leakage, 5 had urinary retention, 6 had incision infection, 4 had intestinal obstruction, 3 had bowel dysfunction in 6 months after operation. In the traditional group, 13 patients had postoperative anastomotic leakage, 15 had urinary retention, 11 had incision infection, 8 had intestinal obstruction, 9 had bowel dysfunction in 6 months after operation. There was a significant difference in the anastomotic leakage between the two groups ( t=4.77, P<0.05), but no significant difference in the urinary retention, incision infection, intestinal obstruction, bowel dysfunction in 6 months after operation between the two groups ( t=2.07, 0.17, 0.22, 1.26, P>0.05). Patients in the two groups showed unobstructed intestinal tract on enteroscopy. Conclusion:The barbed suture for reinforcing anastomosis in radical resection of rectal cancer is safe and feasible, which can reduce the incidence of anastomotic leakage.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of modified Guipi Decoction combined with omeprazole in the treatment of acute non-variceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding (ANVUGIB) with failure of the spleen to control blood vessels syndrome.Methods:Prospective cohort study. A total of 120 patients from January 2018 to December 2021 Taihe County Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine with ANVUGIB of failure of the spleen to control blood vessels syndrome were selected, and the patients were divided into observation group and control group according to the random number table method, with 60 cases in each group. The control group was treated with a large dosage of proton pump inhibitor (omeprazole injection was injected intravenously first, and then omeprazole enteric coated tablets were taken); the observation group took Guipi Decoction on the basis of the control group, and both groups were treated for 7 days. TCM syndrome score, Hemoglobin (Hb) and hematocrit (HCT) levels were measured by colorimetry before and after the treatment. BUN was detected by urease glutamate dehydrogenase method. Prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and fibrinogen (FIB) levels were detected by immunoturbidimetry. The adverse reactions during treatment were recorded and the clinical efficacy was evaluated.Results:Two patients in the observation group and two patients in the control group dropped out of the study. After treatment, the scores of main symptoms, secondary symptoms and total scores in the observation group were lower than those in the control group ( t values were respectively 10.73, 4.45, 7.98, P<0.05). After treatment, the levels of HCT [(41.25 ± 5.03)% vs. (38.19 ± 5.26)%, t=2.95], Hb [(81.09 ± 5.23) g/L vs. (78.39 ± 5.37) g/L, t=2.74] in the observation group were higher than those in the control group ( P<0.01), and BUN [(4.38±0.96) mmol/L vs. (5.39 ± 1.13) mmol/L, t=5.19] was lower than that in the control group ( P<0.01); PT [(12.48 ± 0.67) s vs. (13.22 ± 0.73) s, t=5.69], APTT [(24.66 ± 2.29) s vs. (27.78 ± 2.04) s, t=7.75] were lower than those in the control group ( P<0.01), and FIB [(3.68 ± 0.62) g/L vs. (3.41 ± 0.74) g/L, t=2.13] level was higher than that in the control group ( P<0.05). The total effective rate of the observation group was 93.1% (54/58), and that of the control group was 79.3% (46/58), with statistical significance ( χ2=4.64, P=0.031). During the treatment, the incidence of adverse reactions in the control group was 3.4% (2/58), while that in the observation group was 1.7% (1/58), without statistical significance ( χ2=0.34, P=0.559). Conclusion:High-dosage omeprazole treatment with the addition of internal administration of Guipi Decoction can significantly improve coagulation function, correct the signs and symptoms associated with insufficient blood volume in the body circulation, improve hemostatic efficiency, and reduce the risk of bleeding in patients with ANVUGIB, without increasing the risk of patient safety with the drug.
