Objective To detect the expression of DBC2 and the methylation status of its gene promoter region in gastric cancer,so as to analyze their correlation. Methods Gastric cancer tissues and adjacent normal tissues were collected from 92 cases as research subjects. The DBC2 mRNA expression and the methylation status of DBC2 gene promoter region in gastric cancer were detected by using RT?PCR and MS?PCR respectively. In addition,the correlation of DBC2 gene methylation status with clinicopathological parameters was analyzed. Results In comparison with adjacent normal tissues,gastric cancer tissues displayed a low expression level of DBC2mRNA and a high methylation level of gene promoter region. Besides, the methylation level was significantly correlated with tumor invasion depth,differentiation and TNM staging(P<0.05). With deep invasion,poor differentiation or higher TNM staging,methylation level of gene promoter region was more significant in gastric cancer tissues. Conclusion High methylation of DBC2 gene promoter region may be a significant contributing factor leading to low DBC2 expression.

Objective To study the efficacy of percutaneous transhepatic cholangiodrainage (PTCD),percutaneous gallbladder drainage,and percutaneous transhepatic biliary stent implantation for the treatment of malignant obstructive jaundice in patients who are observed to fail endoscopic drainage. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 17 patients diagnosed with obstructive jaundice between August 2015 and July 2017 who were observed to have failed endoscopic drainage. Percutaneous puncture drainage had been performed in all patients-different methods were chosen based on the type of lesion and the patient's intraoperative condition. Among these patients, 9 underwent percutaneous transhepatic biliary stent implantation (53%),5 underwent PTCD (29%),and 3 underwent percutaneous gallbladder drainage (18%). The serum levels of total bilirubin (TBIL) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) were assessed a day preoperatively and a week postoperatively. The postoperative decrease (or drop) in the serum TBIL and ALT levels was used as a parameter to assess the efficacy of treatment. Patients were divided into a stent and a tube group. The therapeutic effects were compared between the groups in terms of the drop in the serum TBIL and ALT levels and the survival time of patients. Results The postoperative serum TBIL and ALT levels were significantly decreased in all patients (P < 0. 05). No statistically significant difference was observed between the stent and the tube group in terms of the decrease in serum TBIL and ALT levels (P > 0. 05). However,a statistically significant difference was observed between the stent and the tube group in terms of the survival time of patients (P < 0. 05). Conclusion Percutaneous puncture is an effective treatment modality to manage malignant obstructive jaundice in patients who fail endoscopic drainage. Compared to tube drainage,stent placement can prolong patient survival time. Regarding the decrease in serum TBIL and ALT levels,we conclude that stent implantation is not significantly better than tube drainage.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of percutaneous gallbladder drainage in the treatment of severe acute pancreatitis(SAP). Methods A total of 65 patients treated for SAP in our hospital between January 2014 and April 2017 were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into a gallbladder puncture group and a control group. Follow-up was performed for at least 6 months to monitor mortality and the incidence of complications, including pancreatic abscess, pseudocyst, renal failure, respiratory failure, heart failure, gastrointestinal bleeding, sepsis, and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), The differences in mortality and complication rates between the two groups were statistically analyzed. Results Mortality in the gallbladder puncture group was significantly lower than in the control group (P < 0. 05); the incidence of renal failure, respiratory failure, heart failure, gastrointestinal bleeding, and sepsis in the gallbladder puncture group was lower than in the control group (P < 0. 05); the incidence of pancreatic abscess and pseudocyst in the gallbladder puncture group was similar to that in the control group, showing no significant difference (P > 0. 05); the incidence of DIC in the gallbladder puncture group was lower than in the control group, but the difference was not statistically significant (P > 0. 05). Conclusion Percutaneous gallbladder drainage can effectively reduce the incidence of renal failure, respiratory failure, heart failure, gastrointestinal bleeding, and sepsis in SAP, thereby reducing mortality. However, the incidence of DIC, pancreatic abscess, and pseudocyst is not reduced.
