Pancreatic cancer is a common malignant tumor in the digestive tract, and the difficulty of early diagnosis and the lack of effective treatment means are the main reasons for the poor prognosis of pancreatic cancer. In recent years, multidisciplinary treatment (MDT) has become an important means to break through the bottleneck of diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic cancer and improve clinical prognosis. Besides providing patients with high-quality diagnosis and treatment services, this treatment model helps to improve the clinical diagnosis and treatment level of specialists and cultivate high-quality compound medical talents. It also highlights clinical research groups and high-quality case resource sharing, and promotes the clinical application of innovative drugs and new diagnostic and therapeutic technologies, which plays an essential role in increasing the core competence of hospitals. This paper reviews and summarizes the origin, status quo, and deficiencies of the MDT diagnosis and treatment model of pancreatic cancer in China, and examines the prospects for future development, with the aim to provide reference for domestic and foreign counterparts.

To investigate the differences in postoperative short-term complications and long-term prognosis of pancreatic cancer(PC) patients after total pancreatectomy(TP) and pancreaticoduodenectomy(PD).

Objective:To evaluate the accuracy and practicability of hepatocellular carcinoma prediction score (PAGE-B) and modified hepatocellular carcinoma prediction score (mPAGE-B) in predicting the development of hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV)-associated liver cirrhosis and received nucleos(t)ide analogue (NA) treatment.Methods:From June 2009 to December 2014, at Department of Hepatology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University, the clinical data of 707 patients with HBV-associated liver cirrhosis and received NA treatment were retrospectively collected, and the patients were followed up. The risk factors of development of hepatocellular carcinoma were analyzed. PAGE-B (including platelet count, age, gender), mPAGE-B (including platelet count, age, gender and albumin), Child-Turcotte-Pugh (CTP) score and aspartate aminotransferase to platelet ratio index (APRI) were compared in area under receiver operator characteristic curve (AUROC) for predicting the occurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma within 5 years. Risk stratification analysis was carried out for mPAGE-B and PAGE-B. Multivariate Cox regression analysis, receiver operator characteristic curve, Mann-Whitney U test and Kaplan-Meier method were used for statistical analysis. Results:The age of 707 patients was (46.7±12.2) years old, including 567 males (80.2%) and 140 females (19.8%). The positive rate of hepatitis B e antigen was 56.4% (399/707). The scores of PAGE-B, mPAGE-B, CTP and APRI were 15.90±4.24, 12.39±3.58, 6.88±2.15 and 1.80 (0.85, 3.79), respectively. The overall follow up time was (38.14±20.97) months and the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma was 8.1% (57/707). The results of multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that advanced age, low platelet count and quantitative reduction of HBV DNA were independent risk factors of development of hepatocellular carcinoma (Wald=20.44, 5.64 and 9.25; HR(95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.056(1.031 to 1.081), 0.994(0.989 to 0.999) and 0.769(0.649 to 0.911); P<0.001, =0.018 and 0.002). The AUROCs (95% CI) of PAGE-B, mPAGE-B, CTP score and APRI for predicting the occurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma within 5 years were 0.708 (0.639 to 0.778), 0.724 (0.657 to 0.778), 0.576 (0.500 to 0.652) and 0.516 (0.443 to 0.589), respectively. There were no statistically significant differences in AUROCs for predicting the occurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma within 5 years between mPAGE-B and PAGE-B, between APRI and CTP score (both P>0.05). The AUROC for predicting the occurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma within 5 years of CTP score was less than those of PAGE-B and mPAGE-B, and the differences were statistically significant ( Z=3.00 and 3.79; P=0.003, <0.001). The AUROC for predicting the occurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma within 5 years of APRI was less than those of PAGE-B and mPAGE-B, and the differences were statistically significant ( Z=4.75 and 5.46, both P<0.001). There were 51 cases (7.2%), 394 cases (55.7%) and 262 cases (37.1%) in the low-risk (<10) group, medium-risk (10 to 17) group and high-risk (>17) group as assessed by PAGE-B. The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma was 0(0/51), 4.8% (19/394) and 14.5% (38/262), respectively the annual average incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma was 0, 1.6% and 5.5%, respectively, the 5-year cumulative incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma was 0, 7.3% and 31.3%, respectively. The 5-year cumulative incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma of high-risk group was higher than those of medium-risk group and low-risk group (log-rank test=19.27, P<0.001). There were 97 cases (13.7%), 246 cases (34.8%) and 364 cases (51.5%) in the low-risk group (<9), medium-risk group (9 to 12) and high-risk group (>12) as assessed by mPAGE-B. The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma was 2.1% (2/97), 3.7% (9/246) and 12.6%(46/364), the annual average incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma was 0.6%, 1.1% and 4.7%, respectively, the 5-year cumulative incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma was 2.4%, 5.1% and 26.7%, respectively. The 5-year cumulative incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma of high-risk group was higher than those of medium-risk group and low-risk group (log-rank test value=18.64, P<0.001). Conclusions:Both PAGE-B and mPAGE-B can predict the occurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma within 5 years in patients with HBV-associated liver cirrhosis treated with antiviral therapy, identify liver cirrhotic patients at high risk of development of hepatocellular carcinoma and guide clinicans to use more efficient screening strategies.

Based on the ideas of management systemization, system standardization, process specialisation, post accountability, duty formalization, form informatization, information digitization and digital intelligence, the smart, mobile and paperless bedside billing service was developed which incorporated both functional and financial prospects. The innovation was realized by Internet+ bedside billing and an integrated information platform, so that the inter-hospital billing system could be connected to the medical insurance system, electrical receive system and commercial insurance system. This saved manpower and equipment deployment, and improved service quality. The bedside intelligent mobile billing system of a hospital was launched in January 2021, and the average discharge billing time of inpatients in 2020 and 2021 was 44.36 min and 30.59 min, respectively, and the online billing fee time was significantly shorter than offline billing in 2021, and the differences were all significant( P<0.01).

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has poor prognosis due to limited therapeutic options. This study examines the roles of genome-wide association study identified PDAC-associated genes as therapeutic targets. We have identified HNF4G gene whose silencing most effectively repressed PDAC cell invasiveness. HNF4G overexpression is induced by the deficiency of transcriptional factor and tumor suppressor SMAD4. Increased HNF4G are correlated with SMAD4 deficiency in PDAC tumor samples and associated with metastasis and poor survival time in xenograft animal model and in patients with PDAC (log-rank P = 0.036; HR = 1.60, 95% CI = 1.03-2.47). We have found that Metformin suppresses HNF4G activity via AMPK-mediated phosphorylation-coupled ubiquitination degradation and inhibits in vitro invasion and in vivo metastasis of PDAC cells with SMAD4 deficiency. Furthermore, Metformin treatment significantly improve clinical outcomes and survival in patients with SMAD4-deficient PDAC (log-rank P = 0.022; HR = 0.31, 95% CI = 0.14-0.68) but not in patients with SMAD4-normal PDAC. Pathway analysis shows that HNF4G may act in PDAC through the cell-cell junction pathway. These results indicate that SMAD4 deficiency-induced overexpression of HNF4G plays a critical oncogenic role in PDAC progression and metastasis but may form a druggable target for Metformin treatment.

Objective:To summarize the atypical manifestations and treatment strategies of serous microcystic neoplasm of the pancreas.Methods:Review the case data of 11 cases of pancreatic serous microcystic adenoma with atypical preoperative clinical imaging findings admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital from July 2008 to October 2019, and summarize their clinical manifestations, CT/MRI features, and preoperative clinical diagnosis, surgical methods, postoperative conditions.Results:The median age of the 11 patients was 50 (46-66) years old, 7 females, and 4 males. There were 8 cases with back pain and 6 cases with weight loss. The preoperative imaging examination found that the lesion was located in the head and neck in 8 cases, with pancreaticobiliary duct dilatation in 7 cases, suspected vascular invasion in 3 cases, and pancreatic parenchymal atrophy in 2 cases, 3 cases showed rich blood supply and solid space, and 2 cases were connected to the pancreatic duct. Preoperative diagnosis of pancreatic malignant tumors accounted for 4 cases, neuroendocrine tumors in 3 cases, solid pseudopapillary tumors in 3 cases, and intraductal papillary mucinous tumors in 1 case. All patients underwent surgical treatment, 3 cases of distal pancreatectomy (2 cases of using Kimura method to protect the spleen), 3 cases of pancreaticoduodenectomy, 1 case of total pancreatectomy, 2 cases of pancreatic head resection with duodenum preservation, 2 cases of local resection. All patients had no early postoperative deaths. There were 2 cases of grade B pancreatic fistula, 2 cases of biochemical leakage, 1 case of postoperative abdominal hemorrhage, and 2 cases of delayed gastric emptying, all of which were cured after active treatment. The median postoperative hospital stay was 18 (7-63) days.Conclusions:Pancreatic serous microcystic neoplasm could be accompanied by atypical features such as pancreatic/bile duct dilation, parenchyma atrophy, or even present vessel invasion. Understanding the atypical clinic and image features would help improving differential diagnosis and treatment. For those with invasive features, surgical exploration should be recommended.

Objective To study the effects of prosthetic alignment on internal contact mechanical characteristics of intact knee joint for transfemoral amputees. Methods The gait experiment of transfemoral amputees was performed under different alignment conditions, and the differences of lower limb motion and ground reaction force (GRF) were analyzed and compared with those of the non-amputees. The three-dimensional （30） finite element model of knee joint was build and used to analyze the effect of alignments of socket adduction and abduction on internal contact mechanical characteristics between femur cartilage, tibia cartilage and meniscus. Results For knee joint of the non-amputees, contact force was mainly concentrated on the medial sides at the moment of the first GRF peak, while contact force was mainly concentrated on the lateral sides at the moment of the second GRF peak. However, for intact knee joint of the transfemoral amputees, contact force was mainly concentrated on the medial side at the moment of two GRF peaks. The stress of the medial meniscus, contact force and contact area between the medial meniscus and cartilage all obviously increased under the alignment of 6° socket adduction. Conclusions Compared with non-amputees, the incidence of knee osteoarthritis (OA) in amputees was higher, which was related to the long-term overload of the medial knee joint. The alignment of socket adduction may increase the risk of knee OA in the intact side of transfemoral amputees. In clinic, excessive adduction of the socket should be avoided during prosthetic alignment.

Objective To investigate the imaging anatomy and clinical significance of the inferior pancreaticoduodenal veins (IPDVs).Methods The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted.The clinicopathological data of 42 patients with pancreatic head ductal adenocarcinoma who were admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January to June 2018 were collected.There were 24 males and 18 females,aged from 41 to 78 years,with an average age of 61 years.Patients received preoperative contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) examination with 1 mm slice thickness,and underwent corresponding surgery according to the preoperative evaluation.Observation indicators:(1) results of preoperative CT examination;(2) surgical situations.Normality of measurement data was analyzed using Shapiro-Wilk test.Measurement data with skewed distribution were described as M (QR) or M (range),and comparison between groups was analyzed by the Mann-Whitney U test.Count data were described as absolute number or percentage,and comparison between groups was analyzed by the chi-square test.Results (1) Results of preoperative CT examination:42 patients received preoperative contrast-enhanced CT examination with 1 mm slice thickness.① The first jejunal venous trunk was identified in all the 42 patients.The first jejunal venous trunk crossed dorsal to the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) in 34 patients and ventral to the SMA in 8 patients.② Of 42 patients,2 showed no IPDV,and 40 showed IPDV including 23 with 1 IPDV,13 with 2 IPDVs,3 with 3 IPDVs,and 1 with 4 IPDVs.A total of 62 IPDVs were identified in the 42 patients,with an average IPDV number of 1 (range,0-4).There were 43 IPDVs drained into first or second jejunal venous trunks and 19 IPDVs drained into superior mesenteric vein (SMV).③ Of 42 patients,type Ⅰ IPDV was identified in 32 patients including 20 with 1 IPDV drained into jejunal venous trunk at dorsal side of SMA,7 with 2 IPDVs drained into jejunal venous trunk at dorsal side of SMA,2 with 3 IPDVs drained into jejunal venous trunk at dorsal side of SMA,and 3 with 1 IPDV drained into jejunal venous trunk at ventral side of SMA,and non-type Ⅰ IPDV was identified in 10 patients;type Ⅱ IPDV was identified in 18 patients including 17 with 1 IPDV drained into SMV and 1 with 2 IPDVs drained into SMV,and non-type Ⅱ IPDV was identified in 24 patients.Some patients can simultaneously had type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ IPDV.(2) Surgical situations:42 patients underwent pancreatoduodenectomy,14 of which underwent laparoscopic surgery and 28 underwent open surgery.There were 5 cases with SMV or portal vein reconstruction,and 18 with intraoperative blood transfusion.All the 42 patients were diagnosed as pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma by postoperative pathological examination,including 30 of R0 resection and 12 of R1 resection.The volume of intraoperative blood loss,cases with intraoperative blood transfusion,cases with R0 and R1 resection (situation of surgical margin),cases with SMV or portal vein reconstruction were 650 mL(853 mL),15,20,12,4 in the 32 patients with type Ⅰ IPDV,aod 475 mL (480 mL),3,10,0,1 in the 10 patients with non-type Ⅰ IPDV;there were significant differences in the volume of intraoperative blood loss and situation of surgical margin (Z=94.000,x2=5.250,P＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in the cases with intraoperative blood transfusion,cases with SMV or portal vein reconstruction between patients with type Ⅰ and non-type Ⅰ IPDV (x2 =0.045,0.886,P＞0.05).Conclusions IPDVs can be distinguished on the contrast-enhanced CT with slice thickness,and classified as IPDVs drained into SMV or jejunal venous trunk.It is necessary to carefully deal with IPDVs drained into jejunal venous trunk in the pancreaticoduodenectomy due to its more volume of intraoperative blood loss and lower R0 resection rate.

Objective To investigate the differences in the survival time and the occurrence of complications between esophageal cancer patients treated with fully-covered segmented esophageal internal irradiation stent and esophageal cancer patients treated with conventional esophageal internal irradiation stent.Methods The clinical data of 66 esophageal cancer patients,who had received esophageal internal irradiation stents placement,were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into the study group (using fullycovered segmented esophageal internal irradiation stent,n=30) and the control group (using conventional esophageal internal irradiation stent,n=36).The postoperative complications,including restenosis,stent migration,chest pain,etc.,and the survival time of the two groups were recorded.The results were analyzed,and P＜0.05 was considered to be statistically significant.Results No statistically significant difference in the restenosis rate existed between the study group and the control group (20.0％ vs.30.6％,P=0.403);although the median time of restenosis in the study group was longer than that in the control group (161.5 d vs.138 d,P=0.025).The stent migration rate in the study group was higher than that in the control group (33.3％ vs.8.3％,P=0.014).The difference in the median time of stent migration between the two groups was not statistically significant (91.5 d vs.166 d,P=0.236).No statistically significant difference in the median survival time existed between the two groups (186 d vs.178 d,P=0.486).No statistically significantly differences in the incidence of other stent-related complications existed between the two groups.Conclusion Fully-covered segmented esophageal internal irradiation stent can delay the occurrence of restenosis,although it can increase the stent migration rate to a certain degree.
