Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy of direct versus double-balloon occlusion in endoscopic ultrasound-guided gastroenterostomy (EUS-GE) for benign and malignant gastric outlet obstruction (GOO).Methods:Clinical data of patients with GOO who underwent EUS-GE at Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital between April 2017 and July 2024 were analyzed in a retrospectively cohort study. The patients were divided into the direct technique group ( n=36) and the double-balloon occlusion technique group ( n=105). The technical success rate, clinical success rate, procedure time, postoperative stay, stent replacement rate, and incidence of adverse events were compared between the two groups. Results:The technical success rates of the two groups were comparable, 97.2% (35/36) and 94.3% (99/105) ( χ2=0.065, P=0.798), so were the clinical success rates, 94.4% (34/36) and 86.7% (91/105) ( χ2=0.932, P=0.334). However, the direct technique group demonstrated significantly shorter procedure time and postoperative stay compared to the double-balloon occlusion group [33.4 (23.2, 42.3) min VS 43.4 (31.7, 63.1) min, Z=-3.057, P=0.002; 4.0 (3.00, 5.75) days VS 6.0 (5.00, 9.00) days, Z=-4.031, P<0.001]. Adverse event rates [11.1% (4/36) VS 11.4% (12/105), χ2<0.001, P=1.000] and stent replacement rates [5.6% (2/36) VS 9.5% (10/105), χ2=0.152, P=0.696] showed no significant differences. Conclusion:Both EUS-GE techniques achieve comparable efficacy and safety for GOO. However, the direct technique showed significant advantages over the double-balloon occlusion technique in terms of shorter procedure time and reduced postoperative hospital stay.

Objective:To compare minimally invasive surgery with traditional open surgery, analyze the current application status of health economic evaluations in the treatment of digestive tract cancers, such as esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, and colorectal cancer by minimally invasive surgery and provide evidence for the rational selection of clinical treatment, alleviation of disease-related economic burdens, and rational allocation of healthcare resources.Methods:By using five databases, i.e. China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang data, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, PubMed, and Embase, a database was established to retrieve all the papers about health economic studies of minimally invasive surgery for esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, and colorectal cancer published until December 31, 2023. Literature was analyzed by using software NoteExpress 3.8, and data were processed using Excel 2021. The quality of included papers was evaluated using the CHEERS 2022 checklist, and Meta-analysis was conducted by using software Stata 17.0.Results:A total of 10 919 relevant papers were retrieved, and 59 studies were included. Only 14 studies (23.7%) used standard health economic evaluation methods. Meta-analysis results revealed no significant differences in direct medical expenditure and total expenditure between minimally invasive surgery and open surgery. However, the expenditure for minimally invasive surgery exhibited a significant increase [mean difference ( MD)=5 973.12 yuan, P<0.001], while hospital stay and indirect expenditure significantly decreased ( MD: -4.85 days and -733.79 yuan, P<0.001). In China, for gastric cancer, the direct medical expenditure of endoscopic surgery was lower than that of open surgery ( MD=-33 000.00 yuan) with no significant difference ( P<0.001). In colorectal cancer cases, the direct medical and surgical expenditures for laparoscopic surgery were higher than those for open surgery ( MD: 4 277.94 yuan and 4 267.80 yuan, P<0.001), while the indirect and total medical expenditures decreased ( MD: -768.34 yuan and -159.10 yuan). Hospital stays in patients who had minimally invasive surgery for all three types of cancer were shorter than those who had open surgery ( P<0.001). Conclusions:In the treatment of gastrointestinal cancer, compared with open surgery, minimally invasive surgery shows higher expenditure, but has advantages, such as shorter hospital stay and lower indirect expenditure, and there were no significant differences in direct medical and total expenditures between the two approaches. When conducting health economic evaluation, factors such as postoperative complications, hospital stay, and patient's economic status should be considered for their impact on total medical expenditure. It is necessary to pay attention to the application of health economic evaluations in healthcare decision-making.

Objective To retrospectively analyze the changes in cerebral blood flow(CBF)of hippocampus before and after radiotherapy(RT)and to explore its relationship with dose for providing a feasible approach for dynamically monitoring hippocampal response after whole brain radiation therapy in patients with brain metastases(BMs).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on magnetic resonance(MR)images from 43 BMs patients before and after RT,including T1-weighted imaging(T1WI)and three-dimensional arterial spin labeling(3D-ASL)imaging.Manual segmentation of the hippocampal structures was performed on T1WI to determine hippocampal volume,while CBF within the hippocampus was derived from 3D-ASL images.Patients were categorized into different groups according to the time interval between two MR scans and the dose received by the hippocampus,namely short time interval[<30 d,with an average of(19.74±7.15)d]≤1 Gy,1-30 Gy and≥30 Gy groups;long time interval[>3 months,with an average of(495.50±226.06)d]≤1 Gy,1-30 Gy and≥30 Gy groups.The patterns of changes in hippocampal CBF and volume,as well as the dose-effect relationship following RT were analyzed.Results(1)A total of 86 hippocampi were enrolled,showing reductions of 8.32%in minimum CBF(CBF-min),7.31%in maximum CBF(CBF-max),8.09%in mean CBF(CBF-mean),and 4.11%in hippocampal volume after RT(P<0.05).The decrease rates of CBF-min,CBF-max and CBF-mean were 6.33%,7.01%and 8.23%higher than the reduction rate of hippocampal volume,respectively.(2)With a brief interval between two MR simulation localization scans,hippocampal CBF in the groups receiving≤1 Gy and 1-30 Gy exhibited an increase,with the increase rate positively correlated to the radiation dose absorbed by the hippocampus.Conversely,in the group receiving≥30 Gy,hippocampal CBF decreased.The variations in the rate of hippocampal CBF change across the dose groups were statistically significant,except when comparing≤1 Gy and 1-30 Gy groups(P<0.05).Additionally,the hippocampal volume in all 3 dose groups experienced a slight increase,with the growth rate also positively correlated to the radiation dose received by the hippocampus;however,these differences were not statistically significant(P>0.05).(3)With a long interval between MR simulation localization scans,both hippocampal CBF and volume in all 3 dose groups demonstrated decreasing trends,with the decrease rate positively correlated to the radiation dose received by the hippocampus.Statistically significant differences in the rate of CBF change were noted among the dose groups,except for the comparison between≤1 Gy and 1-30 Gy groups(P<0.05).The reduction rate of hippocampal volume across 3 dose groups was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion The reduction in hippocampal CBF following RT in BMs patients is more sensitive than the reduction in hippocampal volume,exhibiting a pronounced dependence on both time and radiation dose.Consequently,CBF changes should be employed as a standard bioindicator for monitoring the response to hippocampal RT and predicting radiological injuries after whole brain radiotherapy in BMs patients.

Background Air pollution exposure has a significant impact on maternal and child health. However, the research on the association between ambient ozone (O3) exposure during pregnancy and the risk of premature birth in newborns is limited, and the conclusions are inconsistent. Objective To investigate the association of ambient O3 exposure during pregnancy with the risk of preterm birth in Guangdong Province. Methods Data of pregnant women in Guangzhou from 2013 to 2019 and Foshan from 2018 to 2023 were collected, and O3 concentrations during different trimesters were assessed according to maternal residential addresses. Bilinear interpolation was used to evaluate the concentrations of air pollution. A cohort study design was adopted in our study. Restricted cubic spline curves were used to evaluate the exposure-response relationship between O3 exposure and preterm birth risk and explore potential exposure threshold of O3. Logistic regression models were used to evaluate the association of O3 exposure with preterm birth. Results A total of 702 924 pregnant women were included in this study, of whom 43 051 (6.12%) were preterm. The average O3 exposure concentrations of pregnant women during the first, second, third, and whole trimesters were 95.51, 97.51, 100.60, and 97.87 μg·m−3, respectively. We observed J-shaped associations between O3 exposure and preterm birth risk during the second, third, and whole trimesters of pregnancy using restricted cubic spline curves. This study found that there were threshold concentrations between O3 exposure and preterm birth risk during different gestational periods, and the threshold concentrations in the first, second, third, and whole trimesters were 112.32, 99.83, 111.74, and 112.46 μg·m−3, respectively. During the second, third, and whole trimesters of pregnancy, after adjusting for maternal age, baby sex, pre-pregnancy body mass index, mode of delivery, baby birth weight, gestational diabetes, and gestational hypertension, the odds ratios (OR) of preterm birth were 1.02 (95%CI: 1.01, 1.04), 1.02 (95%CI: 1.00, 1.03), and 1.17 (95%CI: 1.13, 1.21) for each 10 μg·m−3 increase in O3 concentration above the O3 threshold. No significant association was found between O3 exposure and the risk of preterm birth during the first trimester. Conclusion There is a nonlinear association between the risk of preterm birth and O3 exposure during pregnancy, and higher concentrations of O3 exposure during pregnancy are associated with the risk of preterm birth. Above the O3 threshold concentration during pregnancy, especially during the second, third, and whole trimesters, the risk of preterm birth elevates with the increase of O3 exposure concentrations.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical equivalence between a domestic calcipotriol/betamethasone dipropionate ointment and the originator product in the treatment of stable plaque psoriasis.Methods:A multicenter, randomized, double-blind, three-arm, parallel-group, active- and placebo-controlled study was conducted, and 449 patients aged 18 - 65 years with stable plaque psoriasis were enrolled from 25 hospitals (such as the First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University). Eligible patients had a baseline physician's global assessment (PGA) score of ≥ 3 points, baseline body surface area (BSA) involvement of 5% - 30%, and a target lesion psoriasis area and severity index (TL-PASI) for plaque elevation of ≥ 3 points. Participants were randomly assigned in a 2:2:1 ratio to the test group ( n = 179), reference group ( n = 180), and placebo group ( n = 90), and applied the domestic calcipotriol/betamethasone dipropionate ointment, originator product, and ointment base respectively, once daily in the evening for 4 weeks. Efficacy and safety were assessed at weeks 1, 2, and 4. The primary efficacy endpoints were the treatment success rates and clinical success rates in each group at week 4. The per-protocol set (PPS) was used for the primary efficacy analysis, and the intention-to-treat (ITT) set for supplementary efficacy analysis. Equivalence between the test and reference preparations was tested using the Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel method adjusted for randomization strata. Superiority of the test and reference preparations over the placebo was also tested. Measurement data were compared among the 3 groups using analysis of variance or non-parametric tests, while treatment success rates, clinical success rates, and incidence rates of adverse reactions were compared using the chi-square test. Results:The ITT, PPS, and safety sets included 447, 420, and 448 patients, respectively. In the ITT set, patients were aged 43.6 ± 12.8 years, including 320 (71.6%) males and 127 (28.4%) females, and the disease duration was 11.21 ± 9.05 years; 316 (70.7%) had a PGA score of 3 points and 131 (29.3%) had a PGA score of 4 - 5 points. No significant differences in the baseline characteristics (including age, sex, disease duration and disease severity) were observed among the 3 groups (all P > 0.05). Based on the PPS analysis, the treatment success rates were 57.9% (99/171) in the test group, 50.3% (86/171) in the reference group, and 7.7% (6/78) in the placebo group, and the clinical success rates were 57.9% (99/171), 50.3% (86/171), and 10.3% (8/78), respectively; both the test and reference groups were superior to the placebo group in both treatment and clinical success rates (all P < 0.001) ; the rate differences for treatment success (90% confidence interval [ CI]: -1.3% - 16.4%) and clinical success (90% CI: -1.3% - 16.3%) between the test and reference groups were entirely within the pre-defined equivalence margin (-20% - 20%). Subgroup analyses by baseline PGA scores: for patients with a baseline PGA score of 3 points, the treatment success rates in the test, reference, and placebo groups were 60.8% (73/120), 52.1% (62/119), and 11.1% (6/54), respectively, and the corresponding clinical success rates were 61.7% (74/120), 53.8% (64/119), and 13% (7/54), respectively; the test and reference groups did not differ significantly in treatment or clinical success rates (both P > 0.05), but both showed higher success rates than the placebo group (all P < 0.001) ; the results of statistical comparisons among the 3 groups in patients with a baseline PGA score of 4 - 5 points were consistent with those observed in patients with a baseline PGA score of 3 points. The percentage reductions in PGA and TL-PASI scores from baseline to weeks 1, 2, and 4 showed significant differences among the 3 groups, which were significantly higher in the test and reference groups than in the placebo group (all P < 0.001), but did not differ between the test and reference groups (all P > 0.05). The primary adverse reactions were local skin reactions, such as pruritus, pain, and erythema. The incidence rates of adverse reactions were 8.9% (16/179) in the test group, 7.3% (13/179) in the reference group, and 7.8% (7/90) in the placebo group, with no significant difference among the 3 groups ( P > 0.05) . Conclusions:The domestic calcipotriol/betamethasone dipropionate ointment demonstrated clinical equivalence to the originator product in the treatment of stable plaque psoriasis, and the two agents exhibited comparable efficacy for patients with varying degrees of disease severity, and were comparable in the speed and degree of clinical improvement, with similar favorable safety profiles.
