Chinese Journal of General Surgery 2017;32(1):34-36
Objective To explore the safety and effectiveness of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) after laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer.Methods From January 2014 to December 2015,167 gastric cancer patients undergoing laparoscopic radical gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy were divided into the enhanced recovery after surgery group (ERASG,67 cases) and 102 cases the conventional surgery group (CSG,102 cases).The general status,tumor stage,postoperative recovery,complications,hospitalization time and 30 day readmission were compared between ERASG and CSG.Results The first exhaust time in ERASG and CSG were (2.6 ± 1.1) days and (3.8 ± 1.3) days (t =-6.494,P < 0.01).Statistical analysis showed that there was no significant difference in the postoperative hospitalization time,30 day readmission rate,complications,anastomotic leakage,wound infection,pneumonia,gastric retention and intestinal obstruction between of ERASG and CSG (all P > 0.05).Conclusions Patients in ERASG have quicker postoperative recovery than those in CSG,with similar postoperative complications.

Objective To investigate the correlation of clinical stage and treatment plan with prognosis in incidental prostatic carcinoma.Methods From 2004 to 2010,a total of 1076 patients diagnosed as BPH underwent transurethral plasma kinetic enucleation of prostate (TUPKEP) in our hospital,and their clinical data were respectively analyzed.Among them,42 cases were found to have incidental prostatic carcinoma.The correlation of clinical stage and treatment plan with prognosis in incidental prostatic carcinoma were observed.Results Among 1076 BPH patients undergoing TUPKEP operation,42 cases (3.9%) aged 56-88 years were found to have incidental prostatic carcinoma,which all displayed as prostatic adenocarcinoma including 18 cases at T1 a stage and 24 cases at T1b stage.10 cases received endocrinal therapy,14 cases received bilateral orchiectomy,14 cases underwent radical prostectomy and 4 cases were treated with watchful waiting.Patients were followed up for 24 to 96 months.The survival rates were 100.0% and the rates of progression were 0.0%,20.0%,0.0% in T1 a patients received watchful waiting,androgen-deprivation therapy and radical prostectomy,respectively.Total survival rate was 100.0% and total rate of progression was 11.1% in T1a patients.The survival rates were 71.4%,100.0% and the rates of progression were 42.9%,0.0% in T1 b patients received androgen-deprivation therapy and radical prostectomy,respectively.Total survival rate was 83.3 % and total rate of progression was 25.0 % in T1 b patients.Compared with T1 b patients,the total survival rate was higher (x2=18.19,P<0.01) and the rate of progression was lower in T1 a patients (x2 =6.52,P<0.05).Conclusions The survival rate in T1 a patients accepted androgen-deprivation therapy is similar to that in T1 a patients with watchful waiting.Compared with T1a patients,the survival rate is lower but the rate of progression is higher in T1 b patients received active androgen-deprivation therapy.The survival rate is higher in T1 b patients treated with radical prostectomy than in those received other treatments.Watchful waiting is acceptable for T1 a patients.T1 b patients should be treated with radical prostectomy for a better effect.

Objective To discuss the clinical effect of titanium elastic intrameduUary nail (TEIN)in treatment of pediatric radial neck fractures. Methods A total of 16 children with radial neck fractures were treated TEIN from February 2008 to February 2010.Long arm cast immobilization was used one week postoperatively and functional exercise was done after removal of the external fixation.Results All the patients were followed up for average 5.3 months (3.5-14.0 months),which showed the average period of bony union for 5.8 weeks(4-7 weeks).Except for one patient who aroused skin soft-tissue irritation symptoms at the nail end,no other complication was found.The range of motion of the elbow and forearm in injury side of all patients Was the same as the normal side. Conclusions The application of TEIN has advantages of minimal invasive lesion,nil effect on pheseal plate,good fracture union,rapid functional rehabilitation and little compliations and hence is one of ideal choices in treatment of pediatric radial neck fracture.

AIM The purpose is to construct D-hydantoinase genetic engineering strain for the purpose of the industrial production of D-p-hydroxyphenylglycine. METHODS D-hydantoinase gene was created from Pseudomonas putida 9801 by PCR technique and inserted into pMD18-T vector. The recombinant plasmid was transformed into several Escherichia coli strains. The positive transformants with D-hydantoinase activity were obtained by the two step screening, digoxigenin DNA labeling in situ hybridization and D-hydantoinase activity assay. RESULTS The D-hydantoinase activity of the genetic engineering strain E.coli BL21/pMD-dht was 1700 U*L-1 and increased as high as 8 times compared with those of wild-type strain Pseudomonas putida 9801. The subunit molecular weight of recombinant D-hydantoinase was about 53 kDa measured by SDS-PAGE. The amount of the recombinant D-hydantoinase was about 20 percent of total bacterial soluble proteins. CONCLUSION The genetic engineering strain E.coli BL21/pMD-dht possesses the initial industrial production prospects.

Basal rate verification is the process to find and verify the basal rate of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSⅡ) required for basal glucose metabolism.In the present study,five cases of brittle diabetes were treated by CSⅡ with Insulin Lispro.After doses were adjusted to reach steady blood glucose levels,basal rate verifying tests were carried out.The results showed that the overall level and stability of blood glucose were improved markedly after CSⅡ.Before and after the verification of the basal rate,there was no significant difference in CSⅡ total doses.Basal rates decreased from 50% of total to 30% (P<0.05),and boluses increased to 70% (P<0.05).The basal rates during lunch and supper time were reduced by half (P<0.05),the boluses of lunch and supper were increased 1.5 times (P<0.05),and square waves were needed to control postprandial blood glucose.These results suggest that the CSⅡ could smoothly control blood glucose level in brittle diabetes without basal rate verification.However,the implementation of the verification could better determine the basal rates for basal glucose metabolism,and thus help to identify diet-related boluses.
