Objective:To establish and assess the quality control and improvement system for metabolic and bariatric surgery in Beijing.Methods:Based on relevant documents from the National Health Commission and the Beijing Municipal Health Commission,and referencing the Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program (MBSAQIP) by the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery,a quality control system was developed under the Beijing Quality Control and Improvement Center of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery. The system incorporated on-site evaluations,data registration,and specialized training. From May to December 2023,on-site assessments were conducted at 21 hospitals in Beijing performing bariatric surgery,evaluating personnel qualifications,infrastructure,clinical workflows,and postoperative follow-up. A quality control database was created to collect real-time surgical data,and training was provided for data entry and professional skills. Assessment results were classified as excellent,qualified,or needing improvement,with rectification suggestions offered and follow-up visits conducted to track progress.Results:All 21 hospitals achieved a 100% compliance rate for surgical indications, 16 (76.2%) met standardized surgical operation criteria,and 14 (66.7%) had standardized postoperative management. However,only 5 (23.8%) achieved a 12-month postoperative follow-up rate of ≥60%,and 4 (19.1%) had established specialized databases. Key challenges included insufficient specialized staffing (19.1%), lack of multidisciplinary collaboration (47.6%), inadequate equipment (57.1%), and low follow-up rates (57.1%). The database collected data from over 2 000 patients across 111 fields. After rectification, specialized database coverage rose to 61.9% (13 hospitals). Multi-level training programs developed backbone physicians and specialized nurses,significantly addressing the shortage of specialized personnel.Conclusion:The quality control system established in this study,through the integration of on-site evaluation,data registration,and specialized training,effectively enhances the standardization of surgical practices and data management capabilities.

Objective:To report the 5-year survival outcomes and recurrence patterns of robotic total gastrectomy (RTG) for locally advanced proximal gastric cancer in order to provide more valuable long-term follow-up results for clinical practice.Methods:This was a prospective, single-arm, open-label clinical trial (FUGES-014; Clinical-Trials.gov, NCT03524287). Patients with locally advanced proximal gastric cancer who underwent RTG at Fujian Medical University Union Hospital from March 5, 2018, to February 10, 2020, were included in the analysis. To evaluate the long-term efficacy of RTG in the most objective manner possible, we performed a propensity score-matched (1∶2) comparative analysis with historical control patients who had undergone laparoscopic total gastrectomy (LTG) from the FUGES-002 study (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02333721) in which the 5-year disease-free survival (DFS), 5-year overall survival (OS), and recurrence patterns were compared between the two groups.Results:Prior to matching, there were 48 cases in the RTG group and 263 cases in the LTG group; patients in the LTG group had more advanced cT and pT stages ( P=0.044 and 0.006, respectively) compared to the RTG group. After matching, there were 48 cases in the RTG group and 96 cases in the LTG group; however, no statistically significant differences were observed in the baseline clinical characteristics between the two groups (all P>0.05). Both groups had a median follow-up of 72 months. The 5-year DFS rates were 75.0% (95%CI: 63.7%- 88.3%) in the RTG group and 61.4% (95%CI: 52.5%-72.0%) in the LTG group ( P=0.116). Similarly, the 5-year OS rates were 79.2% (95%CI: 68.5%-91.5%) and 64.6% (95%CI: 55.7%-74.9%) in the RTG and LTG groups, respectively ( P=0.100). Within 5 years after surgery, tumor recurrence occurred in 10 patients (20.8%) in the RTG group and 33 patients (34.4%) in the LTG group ( P=0.124), and peritoneal recurrence was the predominant pattern in both groups (8.3%[4/48] vs. 10.4%[10/96]; risk difference: -0.02, P=0.554). Gastric cancer-related death was the predominant cause of death in both groups (16.7% [8/48] vs. 31.2% [30/96]; risk difference: -0.15, P=0.064). Among patients stratified by different pathological stages, no statistically significant differences were found in DFS, OS, or recurrence rates between the RTG and LTG groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:We find the long-term oncological outcomes of RTG for locally advanced proximal gastric cancer to be noninferior to those of LTG. RTG should therefore be considered as a valid option for standardized minimally invasive surgery for locally advanced proximal gastric cancer.

Indocyanine green(ICG)near-infrared imaging technology has significant research value in laparoscopic radical gastrectomy and has garnered widespread attention and research both domestically and internationally.However,the application of ICG near-infrared ima-ging technology in laparoscopic radical gastrectomy is still in the exploratory stage in current clinical practice,with no unified standards es-tablished as yet.This review introduces the mechanism of ICG fluorescence imaging and discusses the indications and contraindications of ICG use in laparoscopic radical gastrectomy.The application methods and procedures of ICG molecular fluorescence imaging technology in laparoscopic radical gastrectomy and its clinical applications are elaborated upon.Finally,the practical applications of ICG-guided laparo-scopic radical gastrectomy is summarized and generalized to help facilitate its promotion and further standardization.

Objective:To compare and evaluate recurrence patterns after robotic-assisted gastrectomy (RAG) versus laparoscopic-assisted gastrectomy (LAG).Methods:This was a retrospective cohort study of 2915 consecutive patients with gastric adenocarcinoma confirmed by postoperative histology as T1-4aN0-3M0, who had undergone minimally invasive radical gastrectomy at four large gastric cancer treatment centers (Fujian Medical University Union Hospital: 1426 patients; the First Affiliated Hospital, Nanchang University: 1108; Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital: 196; and First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University: 185 cases) between 1 January 2015 and 30 June 2019. 930 patients had undergone RAG (RAG group) and 1985 had undergone LAG (LAG group). We assessed the following characteristics: age, sex, body mass index, American Society of Anesthesiologists score, comorbidities, tumor size, extent of surgery, extent of lymph node dissection, pT, pN, year of surgery, and adjuvant chemotherapy, after propensity score matching (1:1). There were no significant differences in baseline clinical characteristics between the two groups formed by propensity score matching (837 in each group) (all P>0.05). The 3-year recurrence-free survival (RFS), recurrence pattern, and conditional RFS were compared. Results:We detected no significant differences in the overall recurrence rate at 3 years (128/837 [15.3%] vs. 141/837 [16.8%], P=0.387) or time to recurrence (15.7±8.1 months vs. 16.4±8.4 months, P=0.449) between the RAG and LAG groups. Peritoneal recurrence was the most common type of recurrence in both groups (55 [6.6%] vs. 69 [8.2%], P=0.524). The difference in 3-year RFS between the RAG and LAG groups was not statistically significant (83.2% vs. 82.5%, P=0.781). We found that age > 60 years, total gastrectomy, and worse pT stage and pN stage were independent risk factors for recurrence in the study patients (all P<0.05), whereas the surgical procedure (RAG or LAG) was not an independent risk factor for RFS ( P=0.242). The 3-year conditional RFS at various time points was comparable between the two groups (1 year postoperatively: 84.6% vs. 84.7%, P=0.793; 3 years postoperatively: 91.5% vs. 94.9%, P=0.647). Conclusions:In this multicenter study of patients with locally resectable gastric cancer, we demonstrated that RAG performed by surgeons at large gastric cancer centers is not inferior to LAG in 3-year recurrence rate or recurrence patterns.

Objective:To clarify the application effect of information-guided enteral nutrition-associated diarrhea (ENAD) management process in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) undergoing non-invasive assisted ventilation.Methods:A mixed cohort study of pre- and post-control was conducted. Thirty-nine patients with COPD who were admitted to the emergency intensive care unit (ICU) of Huzhou First People's Hospital from July 1, 2021 to July 31, 2022 were enrolled. Taking the completion of the software development of ENAD management software for critically ill patients on January 28, 2022 as the time node, 20 patients admitted from July 1, 2021 to January 28, 2022 were set as the control group, and 19 patients admitted from January 29 to July 31, 2022 were set as the observation group. The two groups of patients received the same enteral nutrition support treatment, and the control group implemented the conventional ENAD treatment process with enteral nutrition intolerance disposal process as the core. On the basis of the control group, the observation group implemented the information-guided ENAD treatment process, and the system software actively captured the information of ENAD patients and reminded the medical team to improve the patient's diarrhea-related examination and provide alternative treatment plans. The duration of antidiarrhea, feeding interruption rate, and energy and protein intake, blood biochemical indexes, incidence of abnormal blood electrolyte metabolism, daily continuous non-invasive assisted ventilation and endotracheal intubation after 7 days of targeted diarrhea intervention were compared between the two groups.Results:Except for the basal pulse rate, there were no significant differences in gender distribution, age, and vital signs, basic nutritional status, arterial blood gas analysis and blood biochemistry at admission between the two groups, indicating comparability between the two groups. When ENAD occurred, the patients in the observation group obtained earlier cessation of diarrhea than those in the control group [days: 3.00 (2.00, 3.25) vs. 4.00 (3.00, 5.00), P < 0.01], and the feeding interruption rate was significantly lower than that in the control group [10.53% (2/19) vs. 65.00% (13/20), P < 0.01]. After 7 days of diarrhea intervention, the energy intake of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group [kJ·kg -1·d -1: 66.28 (43.34, 70.36) vs. 47.88 (34.60, 52.32), P < 0.01], the levels of hemoglobin (Hb), albumin (Alb) and serum prealbumin (PAB) were significantly higher than those in the control group [Hb (g/L): 119.79±10.04 vs. 110.20±7.75, Alb (g/L): 36.00 (33.75, 37.25) vs. 31.00 (30.00, 33.00), PAB (mg/L): 155.79±25.78 vs. 140.95±14.97, all P < 0.05], the daily continuous non-invasive assisted ventilation duration was significantly shorter than that of the control group [hours: 14 (12, 16) vs. 16 (14, 18), P < 0.01], and the arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO 2) was significantly lower than that of the control group [mmHg (1 mmHg ≈ 0.133 kPa): 66.00 (62.00, 70.00) vs. 68.00 (67.50, 70.05), P < 0.05]. However, there were no significant differences in protein intake, incidence of abnormal electrolyte metabolism, and incidence of endotracheal intubation due to acute respiratory failure between the two groups. Conclusion:The information-guided ENAD treatment process can enable the COPD patients undergoing continuous non-invasive assisted ventilation who experience ENAD to receive earlier cessation of diarrhea, and improve the protein energy metabolism and respiratory function of the patients.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical value of analgesia and sedation under bispectral index (BIS) monitoring combined with hydraulic coupled intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring in severe craniocerebral injury (sTBI). METHODS: (1) A prospective self-controlled parallel control study was conducted. A total of 32 patients with sTBI after craniotomy admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) of the First People's Hospital of Huzhou from December 2020 to July 2021 were selected as the research objects. ICP was monitored by Codman monitoring system and hydraulically coupled monitoring system, and the difference and correlation between them were compared. (2) A prospective randomized controlled study was conducted. A total of 108 sTBI patients admitted to the ICU of the First People's Hospital of Huzhou from August 2021 to August 2022 were selected patients were divided into 3 groups according to the random number table method. All patients were given routine treatment after brain surgery. On this basis, the ICP values of the patients in group A (35 cases) were monitored by Codman monitoring system, the ICP values of the patients in group B (40 cases) were monitored by hydraulic coupling monitoring system, and the ICP values of the patients in group C (33 cases) were monitored combined with hydraulic coupling monitoring system, and the analgesia and sedation were guided by BIS. The ICP after treatment, cerebrospinal fluid drainage time, ICP monitoring time, ICU stay time, complications and Glasgow outcome score (GOS) at 6 months after surgery were compared among the 3 groups. In addition, patients in group B and group C were further grouped according to the waveforms. If P₁ = P₂ wave or P₂ and P₃ wave were low, they were classified as compensatory group. If the round wave or P₂ > P₁ wave was defined as decompensated group, the GOS scores of the two groups at 6 months after operation were compared. RESULTS: (1) There was no significant difference in ICP values measured by Codman monitoring system and hydraulic coupling monitoring system in the same patient (mmHg: 11.94±1.76 vs. 11.88±1.90, t = 0.150, P = 0.882; 1 mmHg≈0.133 kPa). Blan-altman analysis showed that the 95% consistency limit (95%LoA) of ICP values measured by the two methods was -4.55 to 4.68 mmHg, and all points fell within 95%LoA, indicating that the two methods had a good correlation. (2) There were no significant differences in cerebrospinal fluid drainage time, ICP monitoring time, ICU stay time, and incidence of complications such as intracranial infection, intracranial rebleeding, traumatic hydrocephalus, cerebrospinal fluid leakage, and accidental extubation among the 3 groups of sTBI patients (P > 0.05 or P > 0.017). The ICP value of group C after treatment was significantly lower than that of group A and group B (mmHg: 20.94±2.37 vs. 25.86±3.15, 26.40±3.09, all P < 0.05), the incidence of pulmonary infection (9.1% vs. 45.7%, 42.5%), seizure (3.0% vs. 31.4%, 30.0%), reoperation (3.0% vs. 31.4%, 40.0%), and poor prognosis 6 months after operation (33.3% vs. 65.7%, 65.0%) were significantly lower than those in group A and group B (all P < 0.017). According to the hydraulic coupling waveform, GOS scores of 35 patients in the compensated group were significantly higher than those of 38 patients in the decompensated group 6 months after operation (4.03±1.18 vs. 2.39±1.50, t = 5.153, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The hydraulic coupled intracranial pressure monitoring system has good accuracy and consistency in measuring ICP value, and it can better display ICP waveform changes than the traditional ICP monitoring method, and has better prediction value for prognosis evaluation, which can replace Codman monitoring to accurately guide clinical work. In addition, analgesia and sedation under BIS monitoring combined with hydraulic coupled ICP monitoring can effectively reduce ICP, reduce the incidence of complications, and improve the prognosis, which has high clinical application value.

Objective:To investigate the influencing factors of operation time for laparos-copic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) and analyze the learning curve of LSG in sarcopenic obesity (SO) and non-sarcopenic obesity (NSO).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinical data of 240 obesity patients who underwent LSG in the Fujian Medical University Union Hospital from January 2018 to June 2022 were collected. There were 52 males and 188 females, aged (30±8)years. Patients underwent L3 vertebral body horizontal axial computer tomography (CT) scanning before and after receiving LSG to accurately segment muscles and fats. Observation indicators: (1) treatment and follow-up; (2) influencing factors of operation time for LSG; (3) cumulative sum (CUSUM) of learning curve; (4) comparison of clinical data between patients in the initial and profi-cient stages. Measurement data with normal distribution were represent as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(IQR), and comparison between groups was conducted using the non-parameter test. Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted using the Logistic regression model. The CUSUM of learning curve was calculated and the fitting process was conducted on scatter plot of learning curves. Results:(1) Treatment and follow-up. Of the 240 patients, there were 97 cases of SO and 143 cases of NSO. All 240 patients underwent LSG successfully, without conversion to open surgery. The operation time of 240 patients was (108±23)minutes. None of patient died during the perioperative period and all patients underwent follow-up during the postoperative 6 months. (2) Influencing factors of operation time for LSG. Results of multivariate analysis showed that SO was an independent factor influencing operation time for LSG ( odds ratio=2.207, 95% confidence interval as 1.207-4.038, P<0.05). (3) CUSUM of learning curve. Results of CUSUM of operation time in patients of SO and NSO showed that the best fit equation of patients of SO was y=-4E-08x 6+1E-05x 5-0.001 1x 4+0.063 1x 3-1.89x 2+28.126x-48.671 (x means the number of surgical cases), with goodness-of-fit R 2 as 0.833, and the best fit equation of patients of NSO was y=3E-09x 6-1E-06x 5+0.000 2x 4-0.010 9x 3+0.063 8x 2+12.053x-65.025 (x means the number of surgical cases), with goodness-of-fit R 2 as 0.716. Based on the trend of CUSUM of learning curve of operation time, the peak value of number of surgical cases in patients of SO and NSO was 81 and 36, respec-tively, which was used to divide the learning curve as two stages of the initial stage and the proficient stage. (4) Comparison of clinical data between patients in the initial and proficient stages. ① Of the 97 patients of SO, there were 81 cases and 16 cases in the initial stage and the proficient stage of LSG, with the operation time, postoperative duration of hospital stay as (119±23)minutes, (5.9±2.3)days and (106±21)minutes, (4.7±0.5)days, showing significant differences between them ( t=2.074, 2.147, P<0.05). ②Of the 143 patients of NSO, there were 36 cases and 107 cases in the initial stage and the proficient stage of LSG, with gender (female), height, preoperative body mass, defatted body mass, operation time, postoperative duration of hospital stay, body mass at postoperative 6 month, body mass index (BMI) at postoperative 6 month, percentage of excess weight loss (EWL%) at postoperative 6 month, cases with EWL% >100% at postoperative 6 month, excess BMI at post-operative 6 month as 20, (170±10)cm, (110±25)kg, (57±12)kg, (108±22)minutes, (6.1±1.6)days, (80±16)kg, (27.63±4.22)kg/m2, 83%±35%, 9, 1.99(6.03)kg/m2 and 87, (164±8)cm, (99±20)kg, (52±12)kg, (100±19)minutes, (4.7±1.1)days, (71±16)kg, (25.89±4.48)kg/m2, 103%±42%, 48, 0.31(5.82)kg/m2, showing significant differences between them ( χ2=9.484, t=3.266, 2.424, 2.141, 2.137, 5.821, 2.740, 1.993, -2.524, χ2=4.432, Z=-2.300, P<0.05). Conclusions:SO is an independent factor influencing operation time for LSG. It is suggested that the surgeons need to finish 81 cases and 36 cases master LSG in patients of SO and NSO.
