Background::The effect of bariatric surgery on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) control can be assessed based on predictive models of T2DM remission. Various models have been externally verified internationally. However, long-term validated results after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) surgery are lacking. The best model for the Chinese population is also unknown.Methods::We retrospectively analyzed Chinese population data 5 years after LSG at Beijing Shijitan Hospital in China between March 2009 and December 2016. The independent t-test, Mann–Whitney U test, and chi-squared test were used to compare characteristics between T2DM remission and non-remission groups. We evaluated the predictive efficacy of each model for longterm T2DM remission after LSG by calculating the area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, Youden index, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), and predicted-to-observed ratio, and performed calibration using Hosmer–Lemeshow test for 11 prediction models. Results::We enrolled 108 patients, including 44 (40.7%) men, with a mean age of 35.5 years. The mean body mass index was 40.3 ± 9.1 kg/m 2, the percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL) was (75.9 ± 30.4)%, and the percentage of total weight loss (% TWL) was (29.1 ± 10.6)%. The mean glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level was (7.3 ± 1.8)% preoperatively and decreased to (5.9 ± 1.0)% 5 years after LSG. The 5-year postoperative complete and partial remission rates of T2DM were 50.9% [55/108] and 27.8% [30/108], respectively. Six models, i.e., "ABCD", individualized metabolic surgery (IMS), advanced-DiaRem, DiaBetter, Dixon et al’s regression model, and Panunzi et al’s regression model, showed a good discrimination ability (all AUC >0.8). The "ABCD" (sensitivity, 74%; specificity, 80%; AUC, 0.82 [95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.74–0.89]), IMS (sensitivity, 78%; specificity, 84%; AUC, 0.82 [95% CI: 0.73–0.89]), and Panunzi et al’s regression models (sensitivity, 78%; specificity, 91%; AUC, 0.86 [95% CI: 0.78–0.92]) showed good discernibility. In the Hosmer–Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test, except for DiaRem ( P <0.01), DiaBetter ( P <0.01), Hayes et al ( P = 0.03), Park et al ( P = 0.02), and Ramos-Levi et al’s ( P <0.01) models, all models had a satifactory fit results ( P >0.05). The P values of calibration results of the "ABCD" and IMS were 0.07 and 0.14, respectively. The predicted-to-observed ratios of the "ABCD" and IMS were 0.87 and 0.89, respectively. Conclusion::The prediction model IMS was recommended for clinical use because of excellent predictive performance, good statistical test results, and simple and practical design features.

Objective:To present the surgical details of manual double-layer suturing in patients with obesity combined type 2 diabetes mellitus by three-incision laparoscopic single-anastomosis duodenal-jejunal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy .Methods:Clinical data and follow-up information of 52 obesity combined type 2 diabetes mellitus patients (BMI 27.59-43.71 kg/m2) who underwent three-incision laparoscopic single-anastomosis duodenal-jejunal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy from Jan 2019 to Jul 2022 at Beijing Shijitan hospital were retrospectively analyzed.Results:The procedure was successful in all patients. The median operative time was 120 (90, 120) min, and the median intraoperative bleeding was 20.0 (10.0, 27.5) ml. No fistula or serious surgical complications were observed in the patients at 1 month postoperatively. Compared with the preoperative period, the patient's weight decreased [(93.22±15.21) kg vs. (69.97±11.06) kg, t=21.707, P<0.01], BMI decreased [(33.11±4.09) kg/m 2vs. (24.86±2.95) kg/m 2, t=23.224, P<0.01], and the patient's fasting glucose level decreased [9.52 (7.57, 12.96) mmol/L vs. 5.47 (4.66, 6.39) mmol/L, Z=6.11, P<0.01]. The remission rate of various obesity comorbidities was greatly improved. Conclusion:Under the condition of three-incision laparoscopy, the pure manual duodenal and jejunal double-layer suture method is safe, feasible, and effective for patients with obesity combined with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Objective To explore the effect of century cloud weight loss(CCWL)follow-up system on the dietary behavior compliance,follow-up rate and weight loss effect of patients after bariatric surgery.Methods A total of 222 obese patients undergoing Beijing Shijitan Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University in 2022 were selected as the study subjects.A total of 108 patients from January to June 2022 were included in control group,and routine follow-up management mode was adopted.A total of 114 patients from July to December 2022 were included in intervention group and were followed up by CCWL follow-up system.The dietary behavior compliance,postoperative follow-up rate,percentage of excess weight loss(%EWL),glucose and lipid metabolism indexes were compared between two groups.Results At 1 month,3 months and 6 months after surgery,the eating behavior after bariatric surgery(EBBS)score,follow-up rate and%EWL of patients in intervention group were significantly higher than those in control group(P<0.05).At 1 month after surgery,there was no significant difference in triacylglycerol(TG),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),fasting blood glucose(FBG)levels in two groups(P>0.05),and 2-hour postprandial blood glucose(2hBG)in intervention group was significantly lower than that in control group(P<0.05).At 3 months and 6 months after surgery,TG,FBG and 2hBG in intervention group were significantly lower than those in control group,while HDL-C was significantly higher than that in control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The application of CCWL follow-up system in patients with bariatric surgery can improve postoperative eating behavior,increase postoperative follow-up rate,and strengthen the effect of postoperative weight loss.

Objective:To evaluate the disinfection effect of high-energy pulse ultraviolet disinfection equipment in medical institution settings.Methods:The disinfection effect was evaluated through field tests and laboratory tests. Among them, 135 high-frequency contact points were selected from nine departments in the field test. Samples were collected before and after disinfection, and the disinfection effects of 75% alcohol wipes wiping disinfection, high-energy pulse ultraviolet disinfection robot disinfection and high-energy pulse ultraviolet handheld disinfection instrument were compared. In the laboratory test, 30 infected areas of the simulated test table were exposed to vertical ultraviolet irradiation and the bacterial-killing rate before and after disinfection was calculated.Results:In the field test, the bacteria-killing rates of 75% alcohol wipes, high-energy pulse ultraviolet disinfection robot and high-energy pulse ultraviolet handheld disinfection instrument were 94.99%, 91.53% and 95.94%, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant. The disinfection effect of the high-energy pulse ultraviolet handheld disinfection instrument was better than that of the high-energy pulse ultraviolet disinfection robot ( P values <0.05). In the laboratory test, the killing log value of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli on the carrier were both greater than 3.00. In the simulated field test, the killing log value of Staphylococcus aureus on the surface samples were 4.99. Conclusion:Both the high-energy pulse ultraviolet handheld disinfection instrument and the high-energy pulse ultraviolet disinfection robot have good disinfection effects, which are similar to the disinfection effects of conventional 75% alcohol wipes.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of plasma exosomal microRNA (miR)-124-3p in the risk of chronic cerebral hypoperfusion (CCH).Methods:A case-control study. Thirty patients who were diagnosed with CCH (CCH group) based on cranial artery spin labeling (ASL) in the neurology outpatient clinic of Sichuan Provincial People′s Hospital from March 2022 to June 2022 and 30 healthy volunteers (control group) were included. Age, gender, smoking history, alcohol consumption history, diabetes history, hypertension, hyperlipidemia history, uric acid, fasting blood glucose, homocysteine and plasma exosomal miR-124-3p expression level were compared between the two groups. Comparisons of categorical variables were analyzed by either χ2 test or Fisher′s exact test. If the data of continuous variables followed a normal distribution, they were expressed as mean±standard deviation (SD) and compared by t-test for two independent samples; otherwise, the data were expressed as M( Q1, Q3), and analyzed by Mann-Whitney U test for comparison between two groups. The correlation between cerebral blood flow and exosomal miR-124-3p levels was analyzed by Pearson′s correlation. Binary multifactorial logistic regression analysis was used to determine the risk factors associated with CCH, and corresponding odds ratios ( OR) and 95% confidence intervals ( CI) were calculated. P<0.05 was considered significant. Results:There was no significant difference in age (64±8 vs. 60±8 years old), gender (33.3% vs. 30.0%), history of smoking (20.0% vs. 3.3%), alcohol consumption (20.0% vs. 6.7%), diabetes mellitus (13.3% vs. 13.3%), hypertension (53.3% vs. 30.0%), history of hyperlipidemia (46.7% vs. 36.7%), uric acid (288±60 vs.319±67 μmol/L), and fasting glucose [4.99(4.63, 5.91) vs. 5.28(5.09, 6.05) mmol/L] and homocysteine [11.35(10.18, 13.08) vs.11.00(9.78, 13.03) μmol/L] between the CCH and control groups ( P>0.05). Plasma exosomal miR-124-3p expression was significantly higher in the CCH group than in the control group [13.08 (8.59, 21.55) vs. 2.85 (1.44, 5.10), respectively; U=169.50, P<0.001]. Pearson′s correlation test showed that the level of exosomal miR-124-3p was negatively correlated with cerebral blood flow in the hypoperfused region in patients with CCH ( r=-0.932, P<0.001). Multi-factor logistic regression analysis showed that plasma exosomal miR-124-3p was independently associated with the risk of CCH ( OR=1.169,95% CI 1.063-1.286, P=0.001). Conclusions:The expression of plasma exosomal miR-124-3p is negatively correlated with cerebral blood flow in areas of low perfusion and is an independent risk factor for CCH. Plasma exosomal miR-124-3p may thus serve as a valid biomarker for CCH risk prediction.

Objective:To investigate anticoagulant effects of mechanical methods in obese patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG).Methods:In this prospective study, 54 obese patients receiving LSG were enrolled . All patients were given post-op mechanical methods for thrombogenic interventions. BMI and the operation-related factors were recorded. Venous blood specimens were taken from each patient before surgery, at the end of pneumoperitoneum (i.e., 0 h after surgery), at 24 hours after surgery for prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), fibrinogen (FIB) and D-dimer (D-D).Results:All 54 obese patients successfully underwent LSG. No severe complications were observed. Before operation, the mean BMI was (43.49±8.29) kg/m 2. DVT-2600 device was applied in all patients for 3 consecutive days after surgery. The PT values increased at 0 h, 24 h after surgery [(12.4±1.2) s, (12.4±0.8) s vs. (11.2±0.8) s, P=0, 0]. The APTT values at 0 h, 24 h after surgery decreased [(29.7±3.6) s, (29.0±3.1) s vs.(31.2±3.3) s, P=0.020, 0.001]. However, the D-D values increased at 0 h,24 h after operation [(213±143) ng/ml ,(445±237) ng/ml vs. (85±108) ng/ml, P=0, 0]. All patients were followed up for 1 month, and no thrombosis -related complications were observed. Conclusion:Mechanical methods for obese patients after LSG can help decrease the risk of deep venous thrombosis.

The difference between the QOL of pre- and post-operation was analyzed.Results:All the patients completed the questionnaire. The Cronbach α coefficient of the questionnaire was higher than 0.7. The post-operational scores of 6 items were significantly higher than that of pre-operation. ( P<0.001). The proportion of "poor" and "very poor" QOL in the pre-operational patients was 43.8%, compared with 0 in the post-operative patients;the proportion of "good" and "very good" QOL in the pre-operatve patients was 4.7%, compared to 86.7% in the post-operative patients ( χ2=146.863, P<0.001). Conclusions:MA Ⅱ questionnaire is a professional, easy oprated tool for assessment of QOL associated with obesity.

Objective:To study the clinical effect of liposuction combined with lymphatico-venous anastomosis for treatment of breast cancer-related lymphedema(BCRL).Methods:From Nov 2015 to Nov 2017, 111 patients with BCRL admitted to the Department of Lymphatic Surgery at Beijing Shijitan Hospital were enrolled. The rank-sum test was used for statistical analysis. The frequencies of erysipelas episodes before and after combined surgeries were compared.Results:The mean upper limb circumference significantly decreased at 7 days[0.2 cm (-0.8, 1.1)], at follow-up[0.2 cm(-0.4, 1.0)]compared with that of preoperation[5.0 cm(4.1, 6.9)]( P<0.05). The mean upper limb volume significantly decreased at day 7[26 ml(-120, 155)], at follow-up[37 ml(-66, 165)]compared with preoperation[786 ml(632, 1 200)]( P<0.05). The incidence of erysipelas of the affected limbs significantly decreased after treatment. Furthermore, the softness and the feeling of heaviness of the affected limbs significantly improved after the combined procedures(all P<0.05). Conclusion:Liposuction combined with lymphatico-venous anastomosis is an effective method for the treatment of breast cancer-related lymphedema.
