Objective:To explore the effect of Gubi Decoction on serum related inflammatory factors and PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway in osteoarthritis model rats. Methods:Seventy SPF rats were randomly divided into the blank group, sham operation group, Glucosamine sulfate group, and the low, medium and high dose Gubi Decoction groups. Except the blank group and sham operation group, knee osteoarthritis animal models were prepared by the modified Hulth method in each group. On the 28th day after successful model preparation, the high, medium and low dose Gubi Decoction groups were given Gubi Decoction 24, 12 and 6 g/kg by gavage respectively; glucosamine sulfate group was given glucosamine sulfate tablet suspension 3 g/L by gavage, once a day for 28 days. The levels of TNF-α and IL-1β in serum were detected by ELISA. The gene expressions of PI3K, Akt and mTOR in cartilage tissue were detected by Real-PCR. The protein expressions of PI3K, Akt, p-PI3K, p-Akt and mTOR were detected by Western blot. Results:Compared with the model group, the knee joint diameter[(11.17 ± 1.81) mm, (11.60 ± 1.38) mm, (10.80 ± 1.17) mm vs. (12.57 ± 0.98) mm] of the rats in the glucosamine sulfate group and the medium and high dose Gubi Decoction groups significantly decreased ( P<0.05). The content of TNF-α [(111.43 ± 21.98) ng/L, (53.42 ± 13.25) ng/L vs. (157.89 ± 23.60) ng/L], IL-1β [(67.50 ± 18.44) ng/L, (48.22 ± 9.63) ng/L vs. (96.11 ± 14.85) ng/L] in the medium and high dose Gubi Decoction groups significantly decreased ( P<0.05), and the expression of PI3K (1.87 ± 0.17, 1.24 ± 0.49 vs. 2.19 ± 0.47), Akt (1.50 ± 0.51, 1.10 ± 0.32 vs. 2.68 ± 0.63), and mTOR (1.32 ± 0.54, 1.10 ± 0.33 vs. 2.94 ± 0.55) mRNA in the medium and high dose Gubi Decoction groups significantly decreased ( P<0.05). The expression of PI3K, Akt, p-PI3K, p-Akt in the low, medium and high dose Gubi Decoction groups significantly decreased ( P<0.05), and the expression of mTOR in the medium dose Gubi Decoction group significantly decreased ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Gubi Decoction can significantly reduce the level of inflammatory factors in the serum of osteoarthritis model rats, and its anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects may be related to PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway.

Objective:To evaluate the safety, efficacy and long-term survival of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for colorectal precancerous lesions and early cancer in the elderly over 80 years old.Methods:Clinical data of colorectal precancerous lesions and early cancer treated with ESD from January 2007 to December 2014 at Endoscopy Center of Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University were retrospectively analyzed. A total of 721 patients with 778 lesions were included in this study. These patients were stratified by age: the super-elderly group (≥80 years old, 55 patients, 7.6%) and the non-super-elderly group (<80 years old, 666 patients, 92.4%). The outcomes of ESD, complication incidences, pathological characteristics, and long-term survival were compared between the two groups.Results:Except that the incidence of chronic concomitant diseases in the super-elderly group was significantly higher than that in the non-super-elderly group [54.5% (30/55) VS 31.5% (210/666), P<0.001], other baseline characteristics were not significantly different ( P>0.05). There were no significant differences in the complete resection rate [93.1%(54/58) VS 95.3%(686/720)], the R0 resection rate [89.7% (52/58) VS 93.2% (671/720)], the curative resection rate [84.5% (49/58) VS 90.3% (650/720)], the complication incidence [5.5% (3/55) VS 2.7%(18/666)], or the median hospitalization (2.98 days VS 2.54 days) between the two groups (all P>0.05). The three-year overall survival rates of the super-elderly group and non-super-elderly group were 95.8% and 98.0%, respectively, and the five-year overall survival rates were 85.1% and 97.4%, respectively. Conclusion:Colorectal ESD is safe and effective for elderly patients (age ≥80 years old) despite a significantly higher incidence of chronic concomitant diseases than that in the non-super-elderly patients.

Objective:To explore the necessity and safety of selective endoscopy to detect gastrointestinal (GI) malignancy during the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).Methods:A retrospective cohort study was carried out to analyze the clinical data of selective endoscopy performed at the Endoscopic Center, Zhongshan Hospital of Fudan University from February 20 to March 6, 2020. Clinical data included epidemiological questionnaire, chief complaints, endoscopic findings and biopsy pathology results, etc. All medical staff had blood test for IgM/IgG antibodies of COVID-19. Patients and their families were followed up by phone to determine whether they were infected with COVID-19. Meanwhile, the clinical data of selective endoscopy during the same period from February 20 to March 6, 2019 were collected as the control group to compare the overall results of endoscopy examinations during the epidemic and the detection rate of GI malignancy.Results:A total of 911 patients underwent endoscopy in the epidemic period group, and a total of 5746 cases in the control group, which was 6.3 times over the epidemic period group. In the epidemic period group, 544 cases received gastroscopy and 367 cases received colonoscopy, while 3433 cases received gastroscopy and 2313 cases received colonoscopy in the control group, which were both 6.3 times of epidemic period group. Gastroscopy revealed that 39 patients (7.2%) were diagnosed with upper GI malignancies in the epidemic period group and 77 patients (2.2%) in the control group with significant difference (χ 2=40.243, P<0.001). The detection rate of gastric cancer in these two groups was 3.3% ( n=18) and 1.7% ( n=59) respectively with significant difference (χ 2=6.254, P=0.012). The detection rate of esophageal cancer was 3.7% ( n=20) and 0.5% ( n=18) respectively with significant difference (χ 2=49.303, P<0.001). Colonoscopy revealed that colorectal cancer was found in 32 cases (8.7%) of the epidemic period group and 88 cases (3.8%) of the control group with significant difference (χ 2=17.888, P<0.001). During the epidemic period, no infection of medical staff was found through the blood test of IgM/IgG antibodies on COVID-19. No patient and family members were infected with COVID-19 by phone follow-up. Conclusion:Compared with the same period in 2019, the number of selective endoscopy decreases sharply during the epidemic period, while the detection rate of various GI malignant tumors increases significantly, which indicates that patients with high-risk symptoms of GI malignancies should still receive endoscopy as soon as possible. Provided strict adherence to the epidemic prevention standards formulated by the state and professional societies, it is necessary to carry out clinical diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible.

Objective To improve the detection rate of early esophageal cancer during endoscopy by construction of artificial intelligence assistant diagnosis system. Methods A total of 2400 esophageal images were collected from Zhongshan Hospital of Fudan University from January 2016 to December 2017, including 1200 images of early esophageal cancer and 1200 images of normal esophageal mucosa. The lesions in pictures were marked with rectangular box by using computer program. Among them, 2000 pictures were divided into the training set and 400 pictures into the test set. An assistant diagnostic model of early esophageal cancer was established by back propagation algorithm in computer deep learning. The training model was tested and the sensitivity and specificity of the system at different cut-off points in the test set was calculated. Receiver operating characteristic ( ROC) curve was used to evaluate the performance of the diagnostic model. Results The area under ROC curve ( AUC) of the auxiliary diagnostic model was 0. 9961. The sensitivity and specificity were satisfactory. Conclusion The deep learning model constructed in this study has good specificity, sensitivity and AUC value in the diagnosis of early esophageal cancer, and can assist endoscopists in real-time diagnosis in clinical examination.
