Objective To investigate the predictive factors for postoperative gastrointestinal function in patients undergoing laparoscopic radical rectectomy(LRR),and thereby construct a predictive model.Methods A total of 155 patients who underwent LRR at our hospital from February 2021 to April 2024 were selected for this study.Based on the postoperative intake-nausea-vomiting-examination-duration of symptoms(I-FEED)scoring system,patients were divided into postoperative gastrointestinal dysfunction(POGD)and non-POGD groups.Clinical data of the selected patients were collected,and Logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors influencing the occurrence of POGD in LRR patients.A predictive model for POGD was constructed,and its predictive performance was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.The calibration ability of the model was assessed using the H-L test.Results Of the 155 LRR patients,2 were excluded due to intraoperative conversion to open surgery and 1 due to insufficient data,resulting in a total of 152 patients included in the analysis.The incidence of POGD in these 152 patients was 33.55％(51/152).Logistic regression analysis identified age(OR=2.687,95％CI=1.422-5.078,P=0.003),smoking history(OR=2.564,95％CI=1.395-4.713,P=0.004),preoperative albumin(Alb)level(OR=0.851,95％CI=0.781-0.927,P＜0.001),dexmedetomidine combined with general anesthesia(OR=0.382,95％CI=0.214-0.682,P=0.001),the location of the abdominal auxiliary incision(OR=2.992,95％CI=1.278-7.006,P=0.007)and ligation location of inferior mesenteric artery(OR=3.784,95％CI=1.624-8.815,P=0.001)as influencing factors for POGD in LRR patients.The ROC curve showed that the predictive model constructed using these factors had an area under the curve(AUC)of 0.905,indicating good predictive performance.The H-L goodness-of-fit test showed no significant difference between the predicted and observed values(P＞0.05),indicating good calibration ability.Conclusion Age,smoking history,preoperative Alb level,dexmedetomidine combined with general anesthesia,the location of the abdominal auxiliary incision and ligation location of inferior mesenteric artery are influencing factors for POGD in LRR patients.The predictive model constructed based on these factors has good predictive value and calibration ability,providing a basis for targeted prevention and treatment to reduce the risk of POGD.

Objective To analyze the correlation of cholecystectomy and changes in intestinal microbiota composition and function by observing functional characteristics of differential microbial communities.Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted on the patients(PC group,n=73)undergoing cholecystectomy in our hospital from 2020 to 2021.Another 56 healthy age-and gender-matched individuals(HC group)without a history of cholecystectomy were subjected and served as the control group.Fecal specimens were collected from the 2 groups.16S rRNA sequencing analysis was performed to examine the changes in composition and function of intestinal microbiota.Results There were no statistical differences between the 2 groups in baseline indicators,such as gender,age,BMI,smoking and drinking history,blood pressure,heart rate,and comorbidities,but significant difference was observed in total bilirubin(TBIL)between them(P<0.01).Alpha diversity analysis showed no significant difference in Chao1,Shannon,and Simpson indices between the 2 groups.Beta diversity analysis using the Bray-Curtis distance algorithm revealed a significant difference between the 2 groups at the class and genus levels(P<0.05).The analysis of microbiota relative abundance using LEFSE showed that Enterobacteriaceae,Lactobacillales,Citrobacter,Megasphaera,Lactobacillus,Enterococcus,Akkermansia,Streptococcus,Klebsiella,and Ruminococcus_gnavus were up-regulated in the PC group,and Lachnospiraceae,Sutterellaceae,Lachnospirales,Lachnospira,and Sutterella were down-regulated.Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)functional prediction analysis indicated that significant differences were seen between the 2 groups in metabolic pathways,including ascorbic acid(vitamin C)metabolism and aldonic acid metabolism(P<0.05),tricarboxylic acid cycle(TCA cycle)(P<0.05),glutathione metabolism(P<0.05),glutamic acid metabolism(P<0.05),secondary bile acid metabolism(P<0.05),and pentose phosphate pathway(P<0.01).Conclusion Cholecystectomy is closely associated with the structural alterations in the composition of intestinal microbiota.Variations in microbiota composition and function may induce perturbations in TCA cycle and glutathione metabolism,glutamate metabolism,secondary bile acid metabolism,and pentose phosphate pathways.

ObjectiveTo explore the syndrome elements and evolving patterns of patients with hepatitis B virus-related acute on chronic liver failure （HBV-ACLF） at different stages. MethodsClinical information of 1,058 hospitalized HBV-ACLF patients， including 618 in the early stage， 355 in the middle stage， and 85 in the late stage， were collected from 18 clinical centers across 12 regions nationwide from January 1， 2012 to February 28， 2015. The “Hepatitis B-related Chronic and Acute Liver Failure Chinese Medicine Clinical Questionnaire” were designed to investigate the basic information of the patients， like the four diagnostic information （including symptoms， tongue， pulse） of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， and to count the frequency of the appearance of the four diagnostic information. Factor analysis and cluster analysis were employed to determine and statistically analyze the syndrome elements and patterns of HBV-ACLF patients at different stages. ResultsThere were 76 four diagnostic information from 1058 HBV-ACLF patients， and 53 four diagnostic information with a frequency of occurrence ≥ 5% were used as factor analysis entries， including 36 symptom information， 12 tongue information， and 5 pulse information. Four types of TCM patterns were identified in HBV-ACLF， which were liver-gallbladder damp-heat pattern， qi deficiency and blood stasis pattern， liver-kidney yin deficiency pattern， and spleen-kidney yang-deficiency pattern. In the early stage， heat （39.4%， 359/912） and dampness （27.5%， 251/912） were most common， and the pattern of the disease was dominated by liver-gallbladder damp-heat pattern （74.6%， 461/618）； in the middle stage， dampness （30.2%， 187/619） and blood stasis （20.7%， 128/619） were most common， and the patterns of the disease were dominated by liver-gallbladder damp-heat pattern （53.2%， 189/355）， and qi deficiency and blood stasis pattern （27.6%， 98/355）； and in the late stage， the pattern of the disease was dominated by qi deficiency （26.3%， 40/152） and yin deficiency （20.4%， 31/152）， and the patterns were dominated by qi deficiency and blood stasis pattern （36.5%， 31/85）， and liver-gallbladder damp-heat pattern （25.9%， 22/85）. ConclusionThere are significant differences in the distribution of syndrome elements and patterns at different stages of HBV-ACLF， presenting an overall trend of evolving patterns as "from excess to deficiency， transforming from excess to deficiency"， which is damp-heat → blood stasis → qi-blood yin-yang deficiency.

Objective To explore the learning curve of robotic-assisted kidney transplantation(RAKT).Methods The clinical data of 96 consecutive RAKT patients performed by the same surgical team were retrospectively analyzed.The arterial anastomosis time,venous anastomosis time,ureteral anastomosis time,hospital stay,and blood loss were selected as evaluation indicators.The learning curve of RAKT was analyzed using the cumulative sum(CUSUM),and the curve was divided into the learning improvement stage and the proficient mastery stage according to the learning curve.The learning curve was verified by comparing the general data and surgical data of patients in different learning stages,and the clinical efficacy of each stage was analyzed.Results The optimal fitting equation of the learning curve reached its peak at the 33rd case,which was the minimum number of surgeries required to master RAKT.There was no statistically significant difference in age,gender,dialysis type,previous abdominal surgery history,number of donor renal arteries,and preoperative serum creatinine between the learning improvement group and the proficient mastery group(all P>0.05).Compared with the learning improvement stage,the body mass index(BMI)was higher,and the number of right donor kidney was increased compared to the left donor kidney in the proficient mastery stage(both P<0.05).There were no significant differences in arterial anastomosis time,ureteral anastomosis time,postoperative serum creatinine,and complications between the two groups(all P>0.05).The iliac vessel dissection time,warm ischemia time,venous anastomosis time,blood loss,and hospital stay in the proficient mastery stage were superior to those in the learning improvement stage,with statistically significant differences(all P<0.05).Conclusions RAKT requires at least 33 cases to cross the learning curve.There is no difference in complications and recovery of transplant renal function between the learning improvement stage and the proficient mastery stage.

Objective:We aimed to develop a novel visualized model based on nomogram to predict postoperative overall survival.Methods:This was a multicenter, retrospective, observational cohort study, including participants with histologically confirmed gastric and colorectal cancer who underwent radical surgery from 11 medical centers in China from August 1, 2015 to June 30, 2018. Baseline characteristics, histopathological data and nutritional status, as assessed using Nutrition Risk Screening 2002 (NRS 2002) score and the scored Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment, were collected. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression and Cox regression were used to identify variables to be included in the predictive model. Internal and external validations were performed.Results:There were 681 and 127 patients in the training and validation cohorts, respectively. A total of 188 deaths were observed over a median follow-up period of 59 (range: 58 to 60) months. Two independent predictors of NRS 2002 and Tumor-Node-Metastasis (TNM) stage were identified and incorporated into the prediction nomogram model together with the factor of age. The model's concordance index for 1-, 3- and 5-year overall survival was 0.696, 0.724, and 0.738 in the training cohort and 0.801, 0.812, and 0.793 in the validation cohort, respectively.Conclusions:In this study, a new nomogram prediction model based on NRS 2002 score was developed and validated for predicting the overall postoperative survival of patients with gastric colorectal cancer. This model has good differentiation, calibration and clinical practicability in predicting the long-term survival rate of patients with gastrointestinal cancer after radical surgery.
