The peritoneum is one of the most common sites of gastric cancer recurrence or metastasis.Peritoneal metastasis seriously affects the patients life quality and shortens patients survival time,so early diagnosis and active treatment have a major impact on the prognosis. Continuous studies of some biomarkers and extensive using of ncw imaging technology make the early diagnosis of peritoneal metastasis more promising.Simultaneously,with the rapid development of intraperitoneal chemotherapy and molecular targeted therapy,there are more options in the treatment.

New oral fluoropyrimidines,such as capecitabine and S-1,have been widely used for elderly patients with a certain efficiency and slight toxicity.Fluorouracil combined with platinum program probably enhances the effectiveness,but also increases the incidence of adverse reactions.There are a few clinical reports about triple-drug combination for elderly patients,but the toxicity is obvious and the efficacy is not certain.

Objective To study the role of PI3K-Akt-GSK-3β signaling in the apoptosis of renal tubular cells after ischemia-reperfusion injury and the protective mechanism of recombinant human erythropoietin(rHuEPO). Methods The human kidney tubular epithelial cells(HK-2)were cultured in vitro in different conditions as control group with serum, ischemia-reperfusion(IR)group, LY294002 group with LY294002(AKT inhibitor)10 μmol/L 30 minutes before IR treatment, LiCl group with LiCl(GSK-33 inhibitor)20 μtmol/L 30 minutes before IR treatment, rHuKPO group with EPO 20 U/ml 30 minutes before IR treatment, rHuEPO + LY294002 group with EPO 20 U/ml and in the presence of LY294002(10 μmol/L)30 minutes before IR treatment, rHuEPO +LiCl group with EPO 20 U/ml and in the presence of LiCl(20 μmol/L)30 minutes before IR treatment. Akt, GSK-33 and caspase-3 activation were measured by Western blotting. The apoptotic ratio of HK-2 cells was measured by flow cytometry. Cell viability was detected by MTT. Results In comparison with the control group, the apoptotic ratio raised up to 15.20%±1.43%, the expression of Akt activity decreased, GSK-33 activity and caspase-3 activity markedly elevated in IR group(P<0.05). LY294002 group up-regulated the apoptotic ratio(18.20%±2.06%), decreased the expression of Akt activity, increased GSK-33 activity and caspase-3 activity, however, LiCl group down-regulated the apoptotic ratio(12.30%±0.85%), increased the expression of Akt activity, decreased GSK-33 activity and caspase-3 activity compared with IR group(P<0.05). rHuEPO group remarkably decreased the apoptotic ratio(11.10%±1.62%), increased the expression of Akt activity, decreased GSK-33 activity and caspase-3 activity compared with IR group(P<0.05). rHuEPO+LY294002 group elevated the apoptotic ratio(13.40%±1.94%), decreased the expression of Akt activity, increased GSK-33 activity and caspase-3 activity, meanwhile, rHuEPO +LiCl group down-regulated the apoptotic ratio(7.50%±1.31%), increased the expression of Akt activity, decreased GSK-33 activity and caspase-3 activity compared with rHuEPO group(P<0.05). Conclusions PI3K-Akt-GSK-3β signaling pathway is involved in HK-2 cells apoptosis induced by ischemia-reperfusion injury and rHuEPO may be used as a new therapy.

Objective To investigate the effects of extended nursing based on relationship, information and management on the self-care behaviors of patients with heart valve replacement. Methods According to admission time, 37 patients with heart valve replacement were set as the control group, which was given routine nursing intervention and another 42 patients as the study group, which received extended nursing based on the trinity of relationship, information and management 2~8 weeks after discharge. Before and after intervention, patients were evaluated by using the improved version of self-care behavior evaluation scale of heart disease (SNBAOHD). Result There were significant differences between the two groups in other items of SNBAOHD, except two items of low salt diet and medication (P<0.05). Conclusions Extended nursing after discharge based on the trinity of relationship, information and management can help the patients to be continuously cared. In this case, it is effective for the enhancement of off-hospital self-care ability and prevention of disease relapses.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of overlapping biodegradable polymer sirolimus-eluting stents (EXCEL) in treating the patients with diffuse long coronary lesions (total stent length for per lesion>60 mm).
Methods: A total of 71 patients with diffuse long coronary lesions with overlapped EXcellstents implantation in our hospital from 2010-08 to 2012-05 were retrospectively studied. The average age of patients was (62.85 ± 10.26) years and 74.56%with male gender. The clinical endpoints were the major adverse cardiac events (MACE) at in-hospital time and at 2-year follow-up period.
Results: The average target lesion was implanted (2.61 ± 0.52) stents, the mean stent diameter was (3.21 ± 0.35) mm and the length was (73.34 ± 13.11) mm. The in-hospital MACE rate was 4.23%, the 2-year target vessel revascularization and MACE rates were 9.86%and 18.31%respectively. Cox regression analysis indicated that smoking (HR 12.102, 95%CI 1.460-100.309, P=0.021), previous history of MI (HR 11.948, 95%CI 1.144-124.726, P=0.038) and previous history of PCI (HR 0.097, 95%CI 0.010-0.990, P=0.049) were the independent risk factors of out of hospital MACE occurrence.
Conclusion: EXcellstent implantation was safe and effective for treating the patients with diffuse long coronary lesions, the long term follow-up study revealed that there was the increased risk for MACE and target vessel revascularization.

The fatality rate of liver failure caused by fatal amanita poisoning is high, and there are no effective antidote drugs in China. On July 30, 2020, the department of infectious diseases and liver diseases of the First People's Hospital of Yunnan Province admitted a 67-year-old female patient with liver failure caused by fatal amanita poisoning. The patient went to the emergency department for treatment due to abdominal pain, vomiting and diarrhea after eating 350-400 g of amanita mushroom for 2 days, accompanied by fatigue for 1 day. There was no abnormality in physical examination. Laboratory indexes: alanine aminotransferase (ALT) 4 798 U/L, aspartate aminotransferase (AST) 10 030 U/L, activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) 57.5 s, prothrombin time (PT) 72.1 s, international normalized ratio (INR) 8.66, prothrombinactivity (PA) 10%. Based on the patient's medical history, clinical manifestations and laboratory data, the diagnosis was amanita peptide mushroom poisoning and acute liver failure. According to the mechanism of amanita toxin poisoning as enterohepatic circulation, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and ultrasound-guided gallbladder puncture and drainage for drainage of bile to discharge toxins were performed to interrupt the enterohepatic circulation of toxins. However, both methods failed, so open cholecystostomy was performed. Because the patient's coagulation function was very poor, artificial hepatic plasma exchange was given to improve coagulation function before open cholecystostomy, and eventually bile was drained successfully. After a total of 19 days of comprehensive medical treatment, the patient was cured and discharged from the hospital, and no sequelae was found after 1 year of follow-up. For such patients, early identification of the disease is required, and blocking the enterohepatic circulation of toxins as soon as possible according to the characteristics and toxicological mechanism of toxins may be the key treatment for rescuing patients with liver failure poisoned by amanita toxin, and it is necessary to combine comprehensive treatments such as active fluid replacement and blood purification to further improve the survival rate.

Objective To explore the value of Chinese thyroid imaging reporting and data system(C-TIRADS)combined with intranodular and perinodular stiffness for distinguishing benign and malignant thyroid nodules.Methods Data of routine ultrasound and ultrasonic shear wave elastography(SWE)in 117 patients with thyroid nodules confirmed by fine needle aspiration cytology(FNAC)and/or surgical pathology were retrospectively analyzed.The nodules were classified according to C-TIRADS and SWE parameters of nodules and surrounding 2 mm glands measured with SWE technique,including Young's modulus of thyroid nodules(E)and perinodular glandular(Eshell)(the maximum[Emax/Eshellmax],the mean[Emean/Eshellmean]and the minimum[Emin/Eshellmin]as well as standard deviation[ESD/EshellSD]values).Then receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn,and area under the curve(AUC)was calculated to assess the efficacy of C-TIRADS,SWE and the combination for differentiating benign and malignant thyroid nodules.Results Totally 117 thyroid nodules of 117 patients were enrolled,including 50 benign and 67 malignant ones.SWE parameters of malignant thyroid nodules were higher than those of benign ones(all P＜0.001).AUC of C-TIRADS for differentiating benign and malignant thyroid nodules was 0.736,with sensitivity of 79.10％,specificity of 68.00％and accuracy of 74.36％.AUC of Emax,Emean,Emin and ESD was 0.816,0.752,0.664 and 0.705,respectively,of Emax was the highest.AUC of Eshellmax,Eshellmean,Eshellmin and EshellSD was 0.834,0.804,0.693 and 0.697,respectively,of Eshellmax was the highest,which was not statistically difference with that of Emax(Z=1.044,P=0.297).AUC of C-TIRADS+Emax and C-TIRADS+Eshellmax was 0.835 and 0.843,respectively,being not significantly different(Z=0.574,P=0.566)but higher than that of C-TIRADS(AUC=0.736,Z=2.510,2.230,both P＜0.05),with diagnostic specificity and accuracy both higher than those of C-TIRADS(all P＜0.05).Conclusion C-TIRADS combined with intranodular and perinodular stiffness could be used to effectively distinguish benign and malignant thyroid nodules,which might improve diagnostic efficiency of C-TIRDAS.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological features and the prognosis of IgA nephropathy (IgAN) in children with massive proteinuria.Methods:It was a retrospective cohort study. Clinical data of IgAN children with massive proteinuria admitted to the Department of Nephrology, Children's Hospital Affiliated to Capital Institute of Pediatrics from January 2008 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into effective group and ineffective group according to whether urine protein turned negative after 6 months of initial treatment. The follow-up endpoint event was defined as a reduction in proteinuria of less than 50% or end-stage renal disease (ESRD) achievement. MedCalc software was used to perform Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, and Log-rank test was used to compare the difference of renal survival between the two groups.Results:A total of 127 patients were diagnosed as primary IgAN by renal biopsy, of whom 57 patients with IgAN showed massive proteinuria. These 57 IgAN patients with macroproteinuria accounted for 44.9% of the total IgAN patients and were enrolled in the study. Among the 57 cases, 33 cases (57.9%) were Lee's grade Ⅲ, 11 cases (19.3%) were below Lee's grade Ⅲ, and 13 cases (22.8%) were above Lee's grade Ⅲ. The follow-up time was 4.0 (3.0,5.8) years. In the initial treatment, among 57 patients, 46 (80.7%) were effective (effective group) and 11 (19.3%) were ineffective (ineffective group). Compared with the effective group, the ineffective group had a higher proportion of concurrent AKI at the onset of disease and longer recovery time of renal function, with significant difference (7/11 vs. 13/46, χ2=4.878, P=0.027). Compared with the effective group, the proportion of Lee grade Ⅲ or above was higher in the ineffective group, and the difference was statistically significant (5/11 vs. 8/46, χ2=3.971, P=0.046). There were significant differences in endocapillary hypercellularity (E1), segmental glomerulosclerosis or adhesion (S1) and cellular/fibrocellular crescents (C2) of Oxford classification between IgAN children with Lee grade Ⅲ or below and those over Lee grade Ⅲ (11/13 vs. 20/44, χ2=6.204, P=0.013; 12/13 vs. 17/44, χ2=11.566, P=0.001; 9/13 vs. 7/44, χ2=14.131, P=0.001). Among 57 patients, endpoint events occurred in 2 patients who both were urinary protein unmitigated, and none of the children progressed to ESRD. There was no significant difference in cumulative renal survival between the two groups by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Log-rank test ( χ2=0.537, P=0.460) after addition of calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) to the initial treatment ineffective group. Conclusions:Macroproteinuria is the prominent manifestation of IgAN in children. The pathological type is mainly Lee grade Ⅲ. Children with macroproteinuria have a good prognosis in the short and medium term after active treatment. For IgAN with macroproteinuria that does not respond well to initial treatment, AKI is more common at onset, and renal function recovery time is longer. The application of CNIs may have a certain effect on improving the renal outcome of IgAN with massive proteinuria.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between abdominal visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and cardiometabolic risk (CMR) through quantitative computed tomography (QCT).Methods:The present study included 76226 participants. Abdominal fat areas were measured using the QCT Pro Model 4 system. Cardiometabolic indices were collected, including systolic and diastolic blood pressures, fasting plasma glucose, total cholesterol, triglyceride, and low-density and high-density lipoprotein cholesterols CMR score was the sum of abnormal blood pressure, fasting glucose, triglyceride, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Restricted cubic spline and ordered logistic regression models were applied.Results:The mean age was 50±13 years and the percentage of men was 58.8%. The level of VAT area was higher in men than in women (191.7±77.1 cm 2 vs 116.4±56.2 cm 2, P<0.0001 for all). After adjustment for age, the cardiometabolic indices except high-density lipoprotein cholesterol increased with increasing VAT area. When VAT area was 300 cm 2, age-adjusted odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals of a CMR score ≥ 1 were 14.61 (13.31, 16.04) for men and 5.46 (4.06, 7.36) for women, and the age-adjusted probability of a CMR score ≥ 3 was 31.7% for men and 31.3% for women. Conclusions:QCT-derived VAT is closely related to CMR. The findings suggest that measurement of visceral fat is recommended for the management of abdominal obesity in subjects who agree to undergo lung cancer screening via low-dose CT without additional radiation exposure.

Objective:To investigate the normal reference values of spinal bone mineral density measured by quantitative computed tomography (QCT) and the differences of bone mineral density (BMD) in different regions of in Chinese adult males.Methods:Men who underwent low-dose CT lung scan for cancer screening in regions of Northeast, North, East, South, Central and Southwest of China from January 2018 to December 2019 were selected. And the lumbar vertebrae BMD values in the male subjects were measured by the QCT system (Mindways Software, Inc.). The mean BMD values and their decline rates were calculated at an age interval of 10 years, and the prevalence of osteoporosis was calculated according to the American College of Radiology spine QCT osteoporosis diagnostic criteria.Results:A total of 50 682 males with a mean age of (50.22±12.79) years (ranged 20 to 98 years) were included in this study. The peak BMD of (173.11±28.56) mg/cm 3 in the healthy Chinese adult male population appeared in the age group of 20 to 29 years and then declined with age. Before the age of 70 years, the BMD was relatively higher in males in South China, and it was lower in Central China and Southwest China, and it was intermediate in Northeast, North and East of China, with statistically significant differences. There was no significant differences in BMD in the males in the two age groups of 70 to 79 years and 80 and older among the regions in China. The overall decline rate of spinal BMD in Chinese males under QCT was about 46.92% over the lifetime, and it declined obviouslyin the 40-49 age group. The overall prevalence of osteoporosis in Chinese male population aged 50 years and above was approximately 11.42%, with the highest prevalence in Southwest China and Central China (14.72% and 13.87%, respectively) and the lowest in North China and South China (8.53% and 7.71%, respectively). Conclusions:A reference of lumbar spine BMD values for healthy males in China based on QCT is established. BMD values were highest in South China and Lowest in Central China.
