2.Research progress in postoperative enteral nutrition in patients with esophageal cancer
Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2014;(23):1484-1489
Esophageal cancer is one of the tumors with high morbidity rates in China, and surgery remains to be the preferred treatment. However, certain complications such as anastomotic fistula, lung infection, respiratory failure, and circulatory failure occur after surgery. Postoperative enteral nutritional support could not only maintain and improve the nutritional status of the body but also re-duce complications and maintain normal immune function. This review focuses on the progress in postoperative enteral nutrition in pa-tients with esophageal cancer.

[Objective]To evaluate the clinical result of Weil osteotomy for refer metatarsalgia in hallux valgus. [Method]Between 2004 and 2005, 25 feet of 17 patients with hallux valgus were treated by osteotomy at the base of the first metatarsal and Weil osteotomy of the lesser metatarsal with metatarsalgia. Weight-bearing anterior-posterior and lateral X ray were taken before the surgery and 6 weeks after surgery on follow up. The hallux valgus angle , the intermetatarsal angle between 1st and 2nd metatarsal, and length of the second metatarsal were measured on the X-ray film. AOFAS system was used to judge the clinical result of the surgery. [Result]The hallux valgus before surgery angle was 32??5.7?,after surgery it was 12.8??3.5?; the intermetatarsal angle between lst and 2nd metatarsal before surgery was 24.2??3.7?,after surgery it was 10.5??0.7?; AOFAS score was 45.6?6.9 before surgery , and 86.9?4.6 after surgery ; significant difference was found between the result. The metatarsal after Weil osteotomy was shorten by 3~8 mm, mean 4.5 mm. After surgery 18 feet had pain free, and 7 feet had a signigicant pain relief . All the patient could return to normal life without other treatment. [Conclusion ] The biomechanical changes in the foot with hallux valgus should be analyzed before surgery . Combined use of base osteotomy at the first metatarsal and Weil osteotomy at lesser metatarsal can get satisfactory clinical result in patients with sever hallux valgus and transferred refer metatarsalgia.

Objective Alloreactive lymphocytes specific for graft antigens are implicated in rejection of allograft.This study aims to induce alloreactive lymphocytes depletion or inactivation and allograft immuno tolerance by alloreactive lymphocyte vaccine(ALV).Methods Recipient lymphocytes were expanded for 9-14 days stimulated by donor lymphocytes that had been dealt with mitomycin C.The expanded recipient lymphocytes are termed alloreactive lymphocyte vaccine(ALV).About 0.5?10 7~1.0?10 7cells mixed with freunds complete ajuvant(FCA)were used as ALV to vaccinate itself for 3~4 times as usual. The stimulate index(SI) was measured after vaccination and compared with itself unvaccination. Results The ALV could suppress mixed lymphocyte reaction. The stimulate Index was significantly lower than themselves uninjected with ALV(P

Objective: To evaluate the effect of early enteral nutrition(EEN) on gastric acid secretion in patients with severe brain injury.Methods: 168 patients with severe brain injury(GCS≤8)were divided randomly into two groups.84 patients were given EEN by naso-gastric tube as EEN group and 84 patients were treated with parenteral nutrition(PN)as PN group.Gastric juice pH and upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage were monitored on admission,the 3rd,5th and 7th day after admission.Results: The gastric juice pH was significantly lowered in EEN group.Conclusion: EEN could neutralize gastric acid and increase the gastric juice pH in patients with severe brain injury.

Objective To investigate features of the clinical and pathology of the 32 cases adolescent patients with carcinoma of esophagus.Methods Analysis of 32 cases with esophageal carcinoma by case -control study was carried out ,40 cases of up -50 years old patients,as control group.Results Compared with those in the control group,the adolescent patients rarely was found in early stage ,the pathological differentiation were worse,the more higher malignant degree,the more shorter survival time.Conclusion The clinical symptoms of adolescent patients with esophageal carcinoma is ocult, its early diagnosis rate is low ,and so the worse prognosis.

Objective To investigate the correlation of Cathepsin D and P selectin expression with the clinico-pathologic features and prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods Immunohistochemistry (S-P method) was applied to detect the expression of Cathepsin D and P selection in 30 NSCLC specimens. Results The positive rates of cathepsin D and P selectin were 66 7% and 76 7% respectively. Cathepsin D expression in NSCLC was positive relation with the tumor size, TNM stage and lymph node metastasis(P0 05). The 3 years survival rate of the patients with the expression of both the Cathepsin D and P selectin was much lower than that of the patients with negative expression of both the Cathepsin D and P selectin(P

Objective To explore the diagnostic value and optimal cut-off point of symptom index (SI) in gastroesophageal reflux-induced chronic cough (GERC).Methods The recordings of multichannel intraluminal esophageal impedance and pH monitoring were retrospectively analyzed in 118 patients with suspicious GERC.SI for all the refluxes,acid reflux and non-acid reflux was calculated respectively by analyzing the temporal association between detected reflux and cough recorded on diary card.Based on the favorable response to the anti-reflux therapy,the diagnostic value for GERC of SI was evaluated and compared with that of the symptom association probability (SAP).Results GERC was definitely determined in 100 patients (84.7%).When SI for all the refluxes was used for the diagnosis of GERC,the cut-off point of ≥45% had the highest diagnostic efficacy,with the sensitivity of 56.0%,the specificity of 83.3%and Youden index of 0.393.SI for acid or non-acid reflux had the same optimal cut-off point of ≥30% and presented with the similar efficacy in the diagnosis of acid or non-acid GERC.Compared with SAP of ≥75%,SIforall the refluxes of ≥45% had a lower sensitivity (56.0% vs 75.0%,x2 =7.988,P=0.005),a higher specificity (83.3% vs 44.4%,x2 =5.900,P =0.015) and the comparable positive or negative predictive value in the diagnosis of GERC.The diagnostic accuracy for GERC was further improved when combining SI for all the refluxes with SAP.Conclusion SI for all the refluxes has a diagnostic value similar to SAP and its optimal cut-off point for GERC may be ≥45%.

Objective To investigate the effect of Bi-level positive airway pressure ventilation (BiPAP) combined with Seretide on quality of life of elder patients with moderate and severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and type Ⅱ respiratory failure.Methods Eighty elderly patients with moderate to severe COPD and type Ⅱ respiratory failure were selected and randomly divided into observation group (n =40) and control group(n =40).The two groups were given conventional anti infection,oxygen inhalation,spasmolysis,expectorantand other conventional treatment,and the use of BiPAP ventilator assisted ventilation.Patients in observation group were administered the combined of Seretide and BiPAP treatment,and patients in control were received only BiPAP.Arterial blood gases before and after 7 d treatment,lung function and quality of life evaluation results (SQGR score) before and after 7 d,3 months and 6 months treatment,were measured.Results There were significant differences in terms of arterial blood gases,pulmonary function key indicators,SQGR score between two groups before and after treatment(P < 0.01).PaCO2 was significantly after 7 d of treatment in observed group was (42.9 ± 7.9) mmHg,lower than that of the control group ((47.6 ± 8.0) mmHg; t =8.467,P <0.001).There was no significant difference in terms of forced expiratory volume in one second(FEV1) in both groups at 7 d,3 months,6 months after treatment (P > 0.05).FEV1/forced vital capacity (FVC) in two group at 3 months,6 months after treatment were different compared to 7 d after treatment (observation group:(49.9 ±5.1)% and (47.1 ±4.2)%,(50.2 ± 5.0)% and(47.1 ±4.2)% ;control group:(49.0 ± 5.4)%and (46.6 ± 5.9) %,(49.8 ± 5.2) % and (46.6 ± 5.9) % ; P < 0.05).SQGR score in observation group at six months after treatment were (40.8 ± 8.5),significantly lower than that of 7 d after treatment(45.9 ± 10.8),P < 0.05),and significantly lower than the control group after 6 months of treatment ((40.8 ± 8.5) vs (46.0± ± 8.0),P < 0.05).Conclusion Seretide combined with BiPAP treatment can significant improve lung function and the quality of life of patients with moderate and severe COPD and type Ⅱ respiratory failure.
