In recent years, with the development of organ preservation, surgical techniques, perioperative management and immunosuppression regimens, the success rate of liver transplantation and survival rate of the recipients have been significantly enhanced. Liver transplantation has become the optimal treatment for patients with end-stage liver disease. However, biliary complications still commonly occur after liver transplantation, especially biliary anastomotic stricture. Severe biliary anastomotic stricture will not only increase the cost of treatment, but also lead to graft loss and even affect the survival rate of recipients. Therefore, timely diagnosis and treatment of biliary anastomotic stricture play a significant role in improving the survival rate of liver transplant recipients. In this article, the risk factors, clinical symptoms, diagnosis and treatment of biliary anastomotic stricture after liver transplantation were reviewed, aiming to provide novel ideas for the research, diagnosis and treatment of biliary anastomotic stricture after liver transplantation, and further enhance clinical efficacy of liver transplantation and the quality of life of recipients.

【Objective】 To explore the effect of autologous platelet-rich plasma(PRP) in the treatment of dry eye syndrome. 【Methods】 A total of 64 patients with dry eye treated in the Ophthalmology Department of Jingdong Sino-American Hospital of Hebei Province from March to November 2023 were randomly selected for the study. The patients were divided into observation group and control group according to the random number table method, with 32 cases and 64 eyes in each group. The control group was treated with artificial tears of polyvinyl alcohol without preservatives, and the observation group was treated with PRP eye drops. The clinical efficacy and adverse reactions of the two groups were compared. Overall efficacy, duration of symptom resolution, ocular surface disease index (OSDI), tear film break up time (TBUT), schirmer's test(St) and corneal fluorescein staining (CFS) results of the two groups were observed and compared in 4 weeks. 【Results】 After 4 weeks of treatment, the total effective rate of observation group was 96.88%(31/32), which was significantly higher than that of control group 84.38%(27/32), with statistical significance (P<0.05). After treatment, the St, TBUT, CFS, OSDI and lacrimal river height in observation group were significantly superior to control group, with statistical significance (P<0.05). The disappearance time of dryness, visual fatigue and foreign body sensation in the observation group was shorter than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was 46.875%(15/32), and there was no significant difference between the observation group and the control group. 【Conclusion】 Autologous PRP is an effective and safe choice for the treatment of dry eye syndrome, which is worthy of further study and confirmation.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of transhepatic arterial chemoembolization(TACE)combined with tyrosine kinase inhibitors(TKIs)and programmed death receptors-1(PD-1)inhibitors(TACE+TKIs+PD-1 antibody)in the treatment of moderate advanced unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods The clinical data of 65 patients with moderate advanced unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College from January 2020 to January 2022 were analyzed retrospectively.65 patients were treated with TACE+TKIs+PD-1 antibody.The observation indexes were tumor response,objective response rate(ORR),disease control rate(DCR),total survival time,progression free survival time,conversion operation rate and adverse drug reaction.Results The ORR of 65 p-atients with hepatocellular carcinoma was 49.2％(32/65),and the DCR was 89.2％(58/65).Among them,there were 2 patients with complete remission(CR),30 patients with partial remission(PR),26 patients with stable disease(SD),and 7 patients with progression disease(PD).Among 65 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma,18 patients were transformed into resectable hepatocell-ular carcinoma and underwent RO surgery.The conversion rate was 27.6％(18/65).65 patients were followed up for 3 to 22.4 months,The median follow-up time was 16.5 months.The median overall survival time and median disease progression free survival time of 65 patients were 14.5 months(95％CI:12.3～16.6 months)and 8.8 months(95％CI:6.9～10.6 months),respectively.After treatment,65 patients all had post embolism syndrome(abdominal pain,fever,nausea,vomiting and other symptoms),and some patients had transient abnormal liver function.Adverse drug reactions below grade 3 recovered within a few days.Some patients were associated with multiple adverse drug reactions.1 patient(1.5％)stopped using TACE because of stubborn vomiting,and 5 patients(7.6％)stopped using Lenvatinib because of severe liver function damage during treatment,2 patients(3％)stopped using Camrelizumab because of severe reactive capillary hyperplasia,one patient(1.5％)stopped using Tislelizumab because of severe hypothyroidism,one patient(1.5％)stopped the treatment of Lenvatinib and Sintilimab due to severe gastrointestinal bleeding.The adverse drug reactions of grade 3～4 occurred in other patients were alleviated after drug reduction,symptomatic treatment and hormone treatment.Conclusion TACE+TKIs+PD-1 antibody can obtain reliable clinical efficacy and anti-tumor activity in the treatment of moderate advanced unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma.

Kidney transplantation is the first choice for treating uremia.Traditional cardiovascular risk factors,renal insufficiency related changes and immunosuppressive medications increase the risk of left ventricular insufficiency after kidney transplantation.Early identification and timely intervention of left ventricular dysfunction after kidney transplantation are helpful to improve life quality and survival time of the transplant recipients.The application progresses of various echocardiographic techniques in monitoring structural and functional changes of left ventricle after kidney transplantation were reviewed in this article.

"State-target medicine" is a traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） diagnosis and treatment theoretical system proposed by Academician Tong Xiaolin based on the current development of modern medicine. The active stage of gastric ulcer， as a precancerous state of gastric cancer， has a great impact on people's health. Prof. ZHOU Xuewen， a master of TCM， innovatively put forward the theory of "toxicity-heat" etiology for the active stage of gastric ulcer， which plays an important guiding role in clinical diagnosis and treatment. The article took the theoretical system of "state-target medicine" as the framework to explain the rationale， method， formula， and medicine of Prof. ZHOU Xuewen， who applied the Xiaoyong Kuidekang based on the "toxicity-heat" theory to treat the gastric ulcer in the active stage. The Chinese medical name of gastric ulcer， "gastric carbuncle"， was established， and it was believed that gastric ulcer is born due to "toxicity" and is based on "toxicity and heat". In the course of the disease， "toxicity"， "heat"， "deficiency"， and "stasis" coexisted， and its pathogenesis was divided into three phases， namely， toxicity-heat accumulation phase， toxicity-heat affecting the health phase， and weakened body resistance and strengthened toxicity phase. According to the positioning of gastric ulcer as an "internal carbuncle"， Prof. ZHOU Xuewen proposed the treatment of gastric ulcer in the active stage with "carbuncle theory" and introduced the surgical methods of "elimination"， "support"， and "tonifying" into the treatment of gastric ulcer in the active stage. Prof. ZHOU Xuewen took "clearing heat and removing toxins， eliminating carbuncle and generating muscle" as the basic treatment of the disease. For different stages of the disease， Prof. ZHOU Xuewen emphasized the use of the methods of clearing heat and removing toxins， supporting rot and muscle growth， and strengthening the spleen and harmonizing the stomach and created the representative formula for the treatment of gastric ulcer in the active stage with "carbuncle theory"， namely "Xiaoyong Kuidekang"， which could regulate state and targets.

Objective To develop the'E-Bone',a comprehensive one-stop preoperative planning system for reverse total shoulder arthroplasty with improved accuracy and efficiency.Methods The nnU-net deep neural network was utilized for scapula segmentation to obtain precise scapula segmentation results.Based on the 3 key factors,namely bone density,upward and downward angle and nail length,the base was automatically positioned.The quantitative parameters required for surgical planning were calculated.A personalized guide plate was generated by combining glenoid morphology and base positioning information.The system interface was developed to modularize various functions for easy use,providing interactive operation and real-time display.Results Compared with the Mimics system,the'E-bone'preoperative planning system reduced complex manual adjustments during the planning process.The average planned nail length was longer than that of the Mimics system,and the planning time was reduced by 86%.The scapula segmentation accuracy of this system reached 99.93%,better than that of Mimics to achieve a higher precision.Conclusion The"E-bone"system provides a one-stop,efficient,and accurate preoperative planning system for reverse shoulder replacement and potentially broader clinical applications.

Objective:To clarify the clinicopathological features, prognosis, and recurrence pattern of early-onset gastric cancer (EOGC).Methods:Using data from the gastric cancer database of Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University, we performed a retrospective, large-scale, real-world study of 5046 patients with gastric cancer who had undergone redical or palliative gastrectomy from January 2013 to December 2018, including 425 patients with EOGC (age ≤45 years) and 4621 controls. All those patients were pathologically confirmed adenocarcinoma with complete follow-up of five years. Residue gastric cancer and patients without complete clinical or follow-up data were excluded. We used a combination of outpatient and telephone follow-up, ending in October 2022 (median duration of follow-up 60 months), and compared the clinicopathological features and prognosis of the two groups.Results:The clinicopathological features of EOGC included female predominance (61.1% [262/425 vs. 26.3% [1217/4621], χ 2=234.215, P<0.001), fewer comorbidities (31.3% [133/425] vs. 58.5% [2703/4621], χ 2=34.378, P<0.001), poorer differentiation (90.6% [385/425] vs. 78.2% [3614/4621], χ 2=30.642, P<0.001), higher proportion of diffuse type (53.9% [229/425] vs. 18.3% [846/4621], χ 2=274.474, P<0.001), higher proportion of T4 stage (44.7% [190/425] vs. 37.5% [1733/4621], χ 2=17.535, P=0.001), more lymph node metastases (60.5% [257/425] vs. 53.9% [2491/4621], χ 2=6.764, P=0.009), and higher proportion of pathological stage III/IV (47.5% [202/425] vs. 42.4% [1959/4621], χ 2=4.093, P=0.043). The 5-year overall survival rates of the EOGC and control groups were 55.1% and 49.1%, respectively. Overall survival was significantly better in the EOGC than in the control group ( P<0.001). According to subgroup analysis, the prognosis of pathological stage I/II/III EOGC was better than that of the control group. Recurrence rates were similar in the two groups, whereas patients with EOGC had a higher proportion of peritoneal recurrence (7.8% [33/425] vs. 3.2% [146/4621], χ 2=23.741, P<0.001) and a lower proportion of distant metastasis (4.9% [21/425] vs. 8.3% [385/4621], χ 2=6.247, P=0.012). Conclusion:EOGC has unique clinicopathological features and recurrence patterns and resectable EOGC has a better prognosis, suggesting that patients with EOGC should be actively treated with the focus on preventing peritoneal recurrence.

Objective:To investigate the effect of the number of positive preoperative serological tumor markers on the surgical approach and prognosis of patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.Methods:This is a retrospective case-series study. Data from 548 patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma after radical resection from October 2010 to April 2019 were retrospectively collected in 10 hospitals of China. There were 277 males and 271 females with an age of (57.8±10.2)years(range:23 to 84 years). Four hundred and twenty-six patients(77.7%) had at least one positive preoperative serum tumor marker. The data collection included the results of 4 preoperative serological tumor markers,other preoperative indicators(5 prodromal symptoms, 6 medical history,8 preoperative serological indicators,5 preoperative imaging indicators,and 14 preoperative pathological examination indicators),baseline data (gender and age),surgical methods,and prognostic follow-up data. Four preoperative results of serologic tumor marker and surgical procedure were converted into categorical variables. The number of positive preoperative serum tumor markers was used as the treatment variable,the surgical method was used as the mediating variable,and the survival time was used as the outcome variable. Univariate and multivariate analysis were used to screen for other preoperative indicators which were independent factors that influenced the surgical procedure and the prognosis of patients as covariates to analyze the mediating effect.Results:Of the 548 patients included in the study, 176 patients (32.1%) underwent partial hepatectomy,151 patients(27.5%) underwent hemihepatectomy, and 221 patients(40.3%) underwent partial hepatectomy or hemihepatectomy combined with other treatments. The results of the univariate and multivariate analysis showed that the number of positive serum tumor markers,intrahepatic bile duct dilatation,portal vein invasion,pathological differentiation,pathological type,vascular invasion,T stage,N stage and maximum tumor diameter were independent factors influencing the surgical procedure(all P<0.05). Intrahepatic bile duct dilatation,pathological differentiation and T stage were independent prognostic factors for patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma(all P<0.05). Intrahepatic bile duct dilatation,differentiation and T stage were included as covariates in the mediation effect model. The results showed that the number of positive serum tumor markers before surgery had a negative predictive effect on the survival time of patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma ( β=-0.092, P=0.039),and had a positive predictive effect on the surgical method ( β=0.244, P<0.01). The number of positive serum tumor markers had a negative predictive effect on the survival time of patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma ( β=-0.151, P=0.002). Direct and indirect effects accounted for 71.3% and 28.7% of total effects,respectively. Conclusions:The higher the positive number of preoperative tumor markers,the worse the prognosis of patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. The number of positive cells not only directly affects the prognosis of patients,but also indirectly affects the prognosis of patients by affecting the surgical method.
