International Journal of Surgery 2021;48(5):327-334
Bariatric and metabolic surgery is an effective treatment for obesity and metabolic syndrome with definite results. In recent years, bariatric and metabolic surgery has developed rapidly, and the surgical indications and procedures have gradually matured. At the same time, the complications have also been widely discussed, including those specific to bariatric metabolic surgery and the risks common to gastrointestinal surgery, of which gastrointestinal leak is one of the most important and serious complications, which can be life-threatening in severe cases. This paper will review the mechanisms, clinical manifestations, diagnostic strategies, prevention, and treatment advances related to gastrointestinal leak after bariatric metabolic surgery based on the two major procedures that cause gastrointestinal leak, namely, staple line leak after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy and gastrojejunostomy leak after laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.

Objective; To explore mechanism of Zhongjiling tablet treats experimental autoimmune myasthenia gravis on rats. Methods:Normal mice, immunosuppressive mice and EAMG rats were used to investigate the mechanism. Results:Zhongjiling tablet enhanced T and B cells proliferation of normal mice and immunosuppressive mice induced by ConA or LPS, and increased the production of IL-2. T cell proliferation of EAMG rats was improvement stimulated by AChR and decline by ConA. Zhongjiling tablet inhibited the improvement by AChR and enhanced the decline by ConA, and reduced the expression of IFN-? and IL-4 mRNA. Zhongjiling tablet also induced the apoptosis of CD4 + T lymphocyte stimulated by AChR. Conclusion: Zhongjiling tablet increased immunity of normal mice, immunosuppressive mice and EAMG rats. But it suppressed specific T lymphocyte proliferation induced by AChR and reduced the expression of IFN-? and IL-4 mRNA. It was probably one of mechanisms Zhongjiling tablet induced the apoptosis AChR specific CD4+T lymphocyte.

In the study, the inhibitory effect of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) on Calcium oxalate nephrolithiasis and its possible mechanism were investigated. The rat Calcium oxalate nephrolithiasis model was induced through the combined oral administration of ethylene glycol and ammonium chloride, which was intervened with EGCG. Rat blood samples were collected to detect blood creatinine (Cr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and blood calcium. Rat urine samples were collected to observe and compare 24-hour urine volume, oxalic acid (Ox) and calcium in urine. Renal samples were collected to prepare tissue slices and observe the pathological changes in Calcium oxalate nephrolithiasis. The expression of osteopontin (OPN) in renal tissues was evaluated by Real-time PCR and Western blot. According to the results, compared with normal rats, rats in the nephrolithiasis model showed significant increases in Cr, BUN, urine Calcium, urine Ox and renal OPN expression (P < 0.05), but obvious decrease in 24-hour urine volume (P < 0.05); Compared with rats with nephrolithiasis, those processed with EGCG revealed remarkable declines in Cr, BUN, urine Calcium and urine Ox (P < 0.05), with significant rise in 24-hour urine volume (P < 0.05) in a concentration-dependent manner. Additionally, compared with the control group, nephrolithiasis rats showed significant pathological changes in Calcium oxalate calculus. After ECCG treatment, the renal pathological changes and OPN expression attenuated significantly in a concentration-dependent manner. The results showed that EGCG inhibits the formation of calcium oxalate nephrolithiasis in rats and shows a notable protective effect on renal functions.

Objective To investigate the effect of congenital human cytomegalovirus(HCMV) infection on the growth of embryo and cerebral cortex. Methods HCMV (6.0 log TCID50 in 1.0 ml/mice) was separately injected into the intraperitoneum of 10-week-old female mice on pre-mating, 3, 7, 15 gestation days. Cerebral cortices of fetuses were collected by laparotomy on 19th gestation-day just before delivery. The specimens were fixed with 4% buffered solution of paraformal dehyde. And then sectioned and stained with HE. Meanwhile, part of the specimens was used for viral isolation and HCMV DNA test by PCR. Results In the cerebral cortex of fetal mice, it was found that the capillary was dilated and congested, and the parenchyma was infiltrated with neutrophils, monocyte for experimental group and not for control group. The degeneration, necrosis and apoptosis of neurons co-existed. The rates of virus isolation for the fetal cerebral cortex among pre-mating, 3-, 7-, 15-gestation-day groups were 60%、62%、67%、25%,respectively (χ2=13.475,P<0.05) and the rate for 15 gestation-day group was significantly lower than others. Average weight of experimental mice for 15-gestation-day was significantly lower than control group and those for other gestation groups were not significantly different on group t-test. Conclusion HCMV can replicate in the cerebral cortex of ICR mice, infect fetal and initiate congenital infection of cerebral cortex of fetus. In addition, embryo of different gestation stages can be infected by HCMV on experiment. HCMV delays embryo growth and causes the cerebral cortex damage.

Objective To investigate the efficacies of laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) surgery in the treatment of patients with different body mass indexes (BMI) and type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods The clinical data of 40 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who underwent LRYGB surgery at the Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University from January 2013 to December 2013 were retrospectively analyzed.According to different BMI,8 patients with BMI < 27.5 kg/m2 were allocated into group 1,14 patients with BMI≥27.5 kg/m2 and <32.5 kg/m2 in group 2 and 18 patients with BMI≥32.5 kg/m2 in group 3.Forty patients were followed up via telephone interview and food habits questionnaire by weight loss file managers of Shengjing Hospital and the fourth Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University.All the patients received the reexamination of blood test and data collection at postoperative year 1.The preoperative and postoperative 1-year fasting plasma glucose,glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1 c),BMI and C-peptide were collected and detected.The fasting plasma glucose < 7.00 mmol/L and HbA1 c < 7.00% were used as a standard of complete remission.Count data and comparison of rates were analyzed using the chi-square test.Measurement data with normal distribution were presented as x ± s and analyzed by the t test.Skew distribution data were described as M (range) and analyzed by the Wilcoxon rank sum test.Repeated measurement data were analyzed by the repeated measures ANOVA.Results Forty patients received successful LRYGB surgery without perioperative complications,and were followed up for 1 year at the Shengjing Hospital (23 patients),the fourth Affiliated Hospital (8 patients) and other hospitals (9 patients).Of the 40 patients,85.0% (34/40) of patients had no postoperative long-term obvious malnutrition,anastomotic stenosis,ion disorders and digestive tract dynamic obstacles,15.0% (6/40) of patients were not adapted to the change of life habits such as frequent nausea and vomiting.Five patients with different degrees of frequent vomiting,abdominal pain and night heartburn within postoperative 1 month had the remission of synptoms after symptomatic treatment.One patient in group 2 had a symptom of hypertonic coma due to intake of oral high-sugar drinks at postoperative 1 week and then was cured by hospitalization.The fasting plasma glucose,HbA1c and BMI in group 1 from preoperation to postoperation were decreased from 11.07 mmol/L (range,6.00-17.00 mmol/L) to 7.18 mmol/L (range,6.00-15.00 mmol/L),from 8.85% (range,6.00%-11.00%) to 6.35% (range,6.00%-9.00%) and from 26.0 kg/m2 (range,22.0-27.0 kg/m2) to 22.2 kg/m2 (range,20.0-25.0 kg/m2),with significant differences (F =2.413,3.256,6.750,P < 0.05).C-peptide from preoperation to postoperation was decreased from 1.20 nmol/L (range,1.00-3.00 nmol/L) to 1.07 nmol/L (range,1.00-2.00 nmol/L),with no significant difference (F =1.678,P > 0.05).The remission rate of diabetes in group 1 was 3/8.The fasting plasma glucose and HbA1c in group 2 from preoperation to postoperation were decreased respectively from 10.73 mmol/L (range,7.00-19.00 mmol/L) to 5.89 mmol/L (range,5.00-9.00 mmol/L) and from 8.00% (range,6.00%-15.00%) to 5.85% (range,5.00%-8.00%).The BMI from preoperation to postoperation was decreased from 31.0 kg/m2 (range,29.0-32.0 kg/m2) to 25.5 kg/m2 (range,21.0-29.0 kg/m2),with significant differences in the above 3 indexes (F =5.449,4.008,-3.296,P < 0.05).C-peptide from preoperation to postoperation was decreased from 1.53 nmol/L (range,1.00-5.00 nmol/L) to 1.52 nmol/L (range,1.00-6.00 nmol/L),with no significant difference (F =-0.251,P > 0.05).The remission rate of diabetes in group 2 was 10/14.The fasting plasma glucose,HbA1c and BMI in group 3 from preoperation to postoperation were decreased from 9.44 mmol/L (range,5.00-16.00 mmol/L) to 6.65 mmol/L (range,4.00-15.00 mmol/L),from 7.90% (range,6.00%-11.00%) to 6.45% (range,5.00%-9.00%) and from 36.9 kg/m2 (range,33.0-47.0 kg/m2) to 27.7 kg/m2 (range,23.0-34.0 kg/m2),with significant differences (F =-3.027,-3.410,-3.724,P < 0.05).C-peptide from preoperation to postoperation was decreased from 2.91 nmol/L (range,0.00-9.00 nmol/L) to 2.13 nmol/L (range,0.00-6.00 nmol/L),with no significant difference (F =-3.724,P > 0.05).The remission rate of diabetes in group 3 was 14/18.There was no significant difference in the remission rate of diabetes of 3 groups (x2 =4.460,P > 0.05).There were significant differences in the changing trends of fasting plasma glucose and BMI among the 3 groups (F =3.200,22.500,P < 0.05).There were no significant differences in the changing trends of HbA1c and C-peptide among the 3 groups (F =0.720,1.640,P > 0.05).Conclusion LRYGB surgery is feasible for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus with effectively decreasing fasting glucose,and should be performed on patients with BMI ≥ 27.5 kg/m2 instead of patients with BMI < 27.5 kg/m2 according to a correlation of blood glucose control and preoperative BMI.
