Objective To compare the clinical efficacy and prognosis of endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD)and surgical methods in the treatment of early esophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma(AEG),and to analyze factors influencing prognosis.Methods Hospitalized patients with early AEG who underwent ESD or surgical treatment at Anhui Provincial Hospital from January 2010 to December 2022 were collected.Among them,186 patients underwent ESD and 364 patients underwent surgical treatment.Propensity score matching was used with a ratio of 1∶1,with 164 patients in each group.Clinical outcomes,survival outcomes,and postoperative complications were compared before and after matching.Factors influencing mortality and recurrence in EGJ patients were analyzed.Results 1.Before and after matching,the ESD group had lower surgical time,hospital stay,hospital costs,intraoperative bleeding volume,and adverse events compared to the surgical group(P＜0.001).2.The matched ESD group had 1-,3-,and 5-year overall survival rates of 99.5％,94.5％,and 90.2％,respectively,while the surgical group had rates of 100％,99.4％,and 97.5％for the same periods.The 1-,3-,and 5-year recurrence-free survival rates in the matched ESD group were 99.5％,96.3％,and 93.4％,respectively,compared to 100％,98.6％,and 92.5％in the surgical group.Kaplan-Meier survival analysis before and after matching showed no significant difference in overall survival and recurrence-free survival between the two groups(P＞0.05).3.Age,poor differentiation,and vascular invasion were independent risk factors for OS;age and tumor size were independent risk factors for RFS.Conclusion Patients with early AEG undergoing ESD or surgical treatment have consistent clinical outcomes.ESD can be considered an effective and safe treatment for early AEG.

Objective To propose a Q factor-based fatigue vibration evaluation method of the ultrasonic knife tip.Methods Firstly,an ultrasonic cutter fatigue testing table was established to realize repeated cutting,which was composed of a power supply module,a three-axis moving module,an ultrasonic cutter clamping module and a control module.Secondly,10 ultrasonic knives of some brand underwent fatigue testing with the table,during which non-contact measurement of the ultrasonic knife tip vibration was carried out and the Q factors were calculated at the five periods of the fatigue test,including the periods before cutting,after 500 times of cutting,after 1 000 times of cutting,after 2 000 times of cutting and after 3 000 times of cutting.Finally,the average cutting speed and burst pressure for coagulated vessels were computed at each period to validata the effectiveness of the method proposed.Results It's indicated that Q factor could effectively reflect the fatigue degradation of the ultrasonic knife tip,while the average cutting speed and burst pressure for coagulated vessels were difficult to efficiently evaluate the fatigue degradation level of the ultrasonic knife tip due to the uncertainty factors in the measurement process.Conclusion The proposed Q factor-based evaluation method can directly evaluate fatigue vibration of the ultrasonic knife tip in an accurate and quantitative manner.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2024,45(6):17-22]

Objective To carry out accurate quantative evaluation of MRI scanning noise based on laser vibrometry technology.Methods Skull and spine MRI was performed with mute and conventional sequences.A laser vibrometry device was used to sample the surface vibration noise at the outer edge of the inspection hole of MRI system according to GB/T 16539-1996 Acoustics—Determination of sound power levels of noise sources using vibration velocity—Measurement for seal machinery,and the indicators of sound power level,sound pressure level and perceived noise level obtained by the three calculation methods(LPN1,LPN2 and LPN3)were analyzed with some dedicated MRI noise analysis software.Results The peak sound pressure levels for conventional and mute sequences of skull scanning were 81 and 63 dB(A),respectively,and mute sequence reduced the noise level significantly;the peak sound pressure levels for conventional and mute sequences of spine scanning were 79 and 75 dB(A),respectively,and the noise reduction level was significantly lower than that of skull scanning.Significant differences in noise reduction were not found in spine scanning sequences,while were found in skull scanning sequences.During spine and skull scanning LPN1,LPN2 and LPN3 obtained by the three calculation methods of conventional and mute sequences were all higher than the overall sound power and overall pressure levels obviously.Conclusion Mute sequence can not realize linear noise reduction for the whole frequency band,the perceived noise of the human ear during MRI scanning is related directly to the scanning sequence,and there may be some bias when only one physical indicator is involved in the noise evaluation of MRI system.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2024,45(10):20-24]
