Background: s/Aims: Distal pancreatectomy with splenectomy (DPS) is a common surgical procedure for pancreatic body cancer.However, spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy (SPDP) utilizing the Warshaw technique (WT) in malignancies is generally not favored due to concerns about inadequate resection. This study aims to assess the feasibility and oncologic outcomes of employing SPDP with WT in pancreatic body cancer. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis comparing 21 SPDP patients with 63 DPS patients matched by propensity score from January 2018 to November 2022. Clinical outcomes and follow-up data were analyzed using R. Results: Both groups exhibited similar demographic, intraoperative, and pathological characteristics, with the exception of a reduced number of total lymph nodes (p = 0.006) in the SPDP group. There were no significant differences in the rates of postoperative complications, recurrence, or metastasis. Local recurrence predominantly occurred in the central region as opposed to the spleen region.There were no cases of isolated recurrences in the splenic region. Median overall survival and recurrence-free survival times were 51.5 months for SPDP vs 30.5 months for DPS and 18.7 months vs 16.8 months, respectively (p > 0.05). The incidence of partial splenic infarction and left-side portal hypertension in the SPDP group was 28.6% (6/21) and 9.5% (2/21), respectively, without necessitating splenic abscess puncture, splenectomy, or causing bleeding from perigastric varices. Conclusions SPDP did not negatively impact local recurrence or survival rates in selected pancreatic body cancer patients. Further studies are necessary for validation.

Objective To explore the feasibility and safety of using indocyanine green combined with autologous blood and methylene blue for localization of small lung nodules during thoracoscopic wedge resection. Methods Patients who underwent CT-guided percutaneous lung puncture injection of localization agents to locate lung nodules at the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University from November 2023 to January 2024 were selected. Under thoracoscopy, lung nodules were located by white light mode, fluorescence mode, or near-infrared mode and wedge resection was performed. The feasibility of using indocyanine green combined with autologous blood and methylene blue for localization of small lung nodules was preliminarily verified by evaluating whether the localization agent concentrated around the nodules, and the safety of this method was verified by analyzing the incidence of adverse reactions during patient puncture and surgery. Results A total of 30 patients with lung nodules were included, including 10 males and 20 females, with an average age of (55.5±11.2) years. In 26 patients, the amount of localization agent used was moderate, the localization agent concentrated around the nodules, and successful precise localization of small lung nodules was achieved. In 4 patients, due to excessive use of localization agent, the marker was diffuse with pleural staining. The overall localization success rate was 86.7%, and when the injection volume of localization agent was 0.2-0.5 mL, the localization success rate was 100.0%. All patients successfully completed thoracoscopic wedge resection and found nodule lesions, with negative margins and a distance from the margin to the lesion that met the requirements. There were no complications. Conclusion Thoracoscopic surgery using indocyanine green combined with autologous blood and methylene blue for localization of small lung nodules is safe and feasible.

Objective To investigate the prognosis and satisfaction of the R2 intervention procedure and develop related predictive models. Methods The clinical data of 64 patients with primary craniofacial hyperhidrosis who underwent R2 intervention surgery at the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University from November 2018 to October 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. By statistically analyzing the risk factors for compensatory hyperhidrosis (CH) and satisfaction, and conducting feature screening, a relevant prediction model was established. Results Finally, 51 patients were collected, including 43 (84.3%) males and 8 (15.7%) females, with an average age of (30.27±7.22) years. Overall postoperative satisfaction was high, with only 5.9% of patients expressing regret about the surgery. However, 92.2% of patients experienced CH. The onset of postoperative CH was most prominent within the first 3 months postoperatively, with the incidence rate stabilizing thereafter. Preoperative heart rate and R2 sympathetic nerve clipping were identified as independent risk factors for severe CH. The preoperative body mass index, the degree of sweating in the chest and abdomen, are significantly correlated with postoperative satisfaction. Conclusion The R2 intervention surgery effectively alleviates the symptoms of primary craniofacial hyperhidrosis, and patient satisfaction is high.

Objective:To construct an evaluation indicator system for the effectiveness of health education in patients with implanted ports, and to provide a theoretical basis for assessing the outcomes of health education in this patient population.Methods:Based on the Knowledge-Attitude-Practice (KAP) theory, a preliminary framework for the health education indicator system was constructed through literature review and semi-structured interviews. The Delphi method was employed to revise and refine the indices, and the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) was used to calculate the weight of each indicator.Results:The effective response rates for the two rounds of Delphi consultation questionnaires were 100.00% (22/22) and 90.91% (20/22), respectively. The expert authority coefficients were 0.925 and 0.918, respectively. The coordination coefficients of expert opinions for the first and second-level indicators in the second round of expert consultation were 0.194 and 0.333, respectively. The final evaluation indicator system for health education effectiveness in patients with implanted ports included 3 first-level indicators and 36 second-level indicators.Conclusions:The constructed evaluation indicator system for health education effectiveness in patients with implanted ports is scientific and reliable and facilitates the accurate assessment of health education outcomes in this patient population.

Objective:To observe the clinical effect of adjustable silicone strap suspension in the treatment of myasthenia gravis ptosis.Methods:From January 2019 to January 2020, 60 patients with myasthenia gravis ptosis (35 males, 25 females, age distribution from 25 to 58 years, with average of 35.63 years) were collected from the Department of Ophthalmoplasty of Aier Eye Hospital affiliated to Wuhan University. They were divided into control group and observation group, with 30 cases in each group. The observation group was treated with adjustable silicone band suspension, and the correction effect, satisfaction, recovery status, ocular surface function index, recurrence rate and complications of the two groups were compared.Results:The excellent rate of operation in the observation group was 93.33% (28/30), which was significantly higher than 63.33% (19/30) in the control group (χ 2=6.29, P<0.05), and the satisfaction of patients in the observation group was 100% (30/30), which was significantly higher than 76.67% (23/30) in the control group (χ 2=5.82, P<0.05). The preoperative corneal curvature and fluorescein staining in the observation group and the control group were significantly lower than those in the postoperative state ( t=6.17, 21.48, P<0.05). The corneal curvature and fluorescein staining score of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group at 3 months after surgery ( t=3.00, 9.06, P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in the incidence of complications such as eyelid imclosure, upper eyelid inversion and unnatural upper eyelid curvature (χ 2=0.19, P>0.05). Follow up at 3 months after surgery, the recurrence rate in the observation group was lower than that in the control group (χ 2=4.63, P<0.05). Conclusions:Surgery is an option for patients with myasthenia gravis ptosis who are not responding well to medical treatment and whose condition is stable. Adjustable silicone strap suspension for the treatment of myasthenia gravis ptosis can significantly improve the surgical success rate and patient satisfaction, with low postoperative complication rate and recurrence rate, which is suitable for clinical application.
