Objective To explore the characteristics of fluid flow within loaded osteons under different boundary conditions.Methods The COMSOL Multiphysics software was used to establish a three-dimensional(3D)finite element model of osteons with different boundary conditions,and the variation rules of pore pressure and flow velocity of osteons under different inner wall pulsating blood pressures and outer wall elastic constraint conditions were analyzed.Results As the pulsatile blood pressure inside the osteon increased from 0 mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa)to 300 mmHg,the peak pore pressure within the osteon correspondingly increased from 26 kPa to 68 kPa.As the elastic constraint on the outer wall of osteons changed from being completely elastic to completely constrained,the peak pore pressure within osteons increased from 15 kPa to 26 kPa,and the peak flow velocity increased from 0.04 um/s to 0.07 um/s.Conclusions This study reveals the influence laws of changes in boundary conditions such as the pulsatile blood pressure on the inner wall and the elastic constraint on the outer wall of osteons on fluid flow characteristics within loaded osteons.These findings are conducive to a deeper understanding of the mechanical response mechanisms of bone tissues in both physiological and pathological states,and provide an important theoretical basrs for further researches on bone mechanotransduction.

Objective To explore the clinical application effects of Chen's pancreatojejunostomy in laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy.Methods Clinical data of 176 patients who underwent laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy in Xiangyang Central Hospital from January 2019 to December 2024 were retrospectively analyzed.According to the methods of intraoperative pancreatojejunostomy,the patients were divided into two groups,the research group(102 cases)using Chen's pancreatojejunostomy,and the control group(74 cases)using duct-to-mucosa pancreatojejunostomy.The two groups were compared on clinical indicators,including operation time,pancreatojejunostomy time,intraoperative blood loss,incidence of postoperative complications,length of hospital stay,and 30-day postoperative mortality rate.Results All 176 patients successfully underwent laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy.There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in intraoperative blood loss,biochemical leakage,abdominal bleeding,upper gastrointestinal bleeding,delayed gastric emptying,bile leakage,abdominal infection,and 30-day postoperative mortality rate(P＞0.05).The pancreatojejunostomy time[(22.33±5.95)min]and operation time[(334.60±66.42)min]in the study group were significantly shorter than those in the control group[(30.70±5.50)min]and[(414.46±60.96)min],with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).Two groups of patients did not develop grade C pancreatic fistula.The incidence of grade B pancreatic fistula in the study group(5.88％)was significantly lower compared to the control group(16.22％),and this difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Additionally,The postoperative hospital stay of the study group patients[(17.10±6.89)days]was significantly shorter than in the control group[(20.88±8.40)days],with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).Conclusion Chen's pancreatojejunostomy is a feasible,safe,and effective procedure in laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy,which can shorten the pancreatojejunostomy time,reduce the incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula,and decrease the length of hospital stay.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of wrapping the hepatic artery with the hepatogastric ligament for preventing bleeding of the hepatic artery and its branches following pancreaticoduodenectomy(PD).Methods 194 patients who underwent PD in Xiangyang Central Hospital from January 2017 to November 2024 were enrolled and categorized into two groups based on whether the hepatic artery was enwrapped with the hepatogastric ligament during the operation.The wrapped group consisted of 95 cases where the hepatic artery was wrapped,while the non-wrapped group had 99 cases without such wrapping.Intraoperative parameters(intraoperative blood loss and operative time)and postoperative complications(pancreatic fistula,abdominal cavity infection,biliary fistula,delayed gastric emptying,postoperative bleeding,and bleeding of the hepatic artery and its branches)were compared between the two cohorts.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify the independent risk factors for postoperative bleeding.Results PD was accomplished successfully in both groups.There was no remarkable difference in intraoperative indices like blood loss and operative time between the two groups(P＞0.05).Similarly,no significant disparities were noted in postoperative complications such as pancreatic fistula,abdominal infection,biliary fistula,and delayed gastric emptying(P＞0.05).Nevertheless,the incidence of postoperative bleeding in the wrapped group was lower than that in the non-wrapped group(3.16％vs.12.12％,P=0.019),and the incidence of bleeding of the hepatic artery and its branches after surgery was also significantly decreased in the wrapped group(0 vs.10.10％,P=0.004).Logistic regression analysis revealed that the operation time(OR=1.013,P=0.011),pancreatic fistula(OR=9.006,P=0.006)and celiac infection(OR=7.930,P=0.014)are independent risk factors of postoperative bleeding,Hepatogastric ligament encapsulation of hepatic artery was an independent protective factor for postoperative hemorrhage of PD(OR=0.084,P=0.006).Conclusion Wrapping the hepatic artery with the hepatogastric ligament reduces PD postoperative bleeding,especially that of the hepatic artery and its branches,without adding other complications.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) for treating functional constipation, analyze the incidence of, and factors that influence, adverse events, and provide scientific evidence for optimizing FMT treatment.Methods:This retrospective, multicenter, single-arm, pre–post real-world study included 1529 patients with functional constipation from four clinical centers. Eligibility criteria comprised meeting the diagnostic criteria for functional constipation, having undergone at least one FMT treatment, complete pre- and post-treatment data available, and age ≥18 years. Patients who had received other interventions affecting gut function within 1 month before treatment and those with severe organic diseases or immune deficiencies were excluded. Applying the above criteria yielded 1529 eligible patients with functional constipation from four medical centers (1405 from the Shanghai Tenth People's Hospital Affiliated to Tongji University, 20 from the Central Hospital of Wuhan, 67 from the Shanxi Bethune Hospital and 37 from the Longgang District People's Hospital of Shenzhen). The study cohort comprised 746 male (48.8%) and 783 female patients (51.2%) of mean age (51.4 ± 17.4) years, mean body mass index (26.4 ± 4.9) kg/m2, and mean duration of disease (15.0 ± 8.3) years. The primary outcomes were the incidence, types, and severity of adverse reactions during treatment, and their impact on patients' quality of life. Secondary outcomes included: (1) the efficacy of FMT in treating constipation. This was assessed based on changes in Patient Assessment of Constipation Symptoms (PAC-SYM) scores, where higher score indicates worse symptom. (2) Subjective satisfaction, evaluated through questionnaires or rating scales, reflecting patients' acceptance of and satisfaction with the treatment, with scores ranging from 1 to 5, where higher scores indicated greater satisfaction. Paired t-tests and Wilcoxon signed-rank tests were used to evaluate changes in symptom scores and biochemical indicators before and after treatment. Logistic regression was performed to analyze factors influencing adverse events, and subgroup analyses to explored differences in efficacy between patient groups.Results:In this cohort of 1529 patients with functional constipation, adverse reactions were primarily mild to moderate (1048/1529,68.5%). They comprised fever in 54 patients (3.5%), dizziness or fatigue in 218 (14.3%), throat discomfort in 806 (52.7%), nausea and vomiting in 166 (10.9%), and abdominal distension or pain in 415 (27.1%). According to multivariate logistic regression analysis, PAC-SYM scores were associated with the rate of adverse reactions, higher scores indicating a lower risk (OR = 0.958, 95% CI: 0.923–0.993, P=0.021). Among the 1529 patients, 274 (17.9%) underwent two or more treatment courses. After one treatment course, the patients' PAC-SYM scores decreased from (37.7 ± 3.2) pre-treatment to (23.7 ± 8.6) (mean difference 14.0 ± 9.1). PAC-SYM scores decreased by (20.7 ± 7.7) after two courses of FMT, and by (19.4 ± 6.3) after three courses. After treatment, 50.7%(775/1529) of patients reported satisfaction scores of ≥4. Adverse reactions impacted satisfaction; specifically, dizziness/fatigue, throat discomfort, and abdominal distension/pain were significantly associated with satisfaction (all P < 0.05). Conclusions:FMT achieved good relief of symptoms of functional constipation and multiple treatment courses have a cumulative effect. Adverse reactions, mainly dizziness/fatigue, throat discomfort, and abdominal distension/pain, had significant negative impacts on patient satisfaction.

Objective To explore the effects of preoperative transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE)on early postoperative recurrence in the China liver cancer(CNLC)staging Ⅰb-Ⅱa patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma.Methods The data of patients with CNLC Ⅰb-Ⅱa stage hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent curative liver resection in Xiangyang Central Hospital from May 2017 to May 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.A total of 76 patients were included,patients were divided into preoperative TACE group(n=32)and surgery group(n=44)according to whether they underwent preoperative TACE.Observe the postoperative recovery of patients.Combined with the postoperative pathological results,adjuvant TACE treatment is performed.Regular reexamination and follow-up are conducted after discharge.The Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate survival time,calculate 95％CI,and plot the Disease-free(DFS)survival curve.The Cox proportional risk model was used for univariate and multivariate analysis.Results The 1-year disease-free survival rate in the preoperative TACE group was higher than that in the direct surgery group(96.9％vs.84.1％,P＞0.05).The 2-year disease-free survival rate in the preoperative TACE group was higher than that in the direct surgery group(90.6％vs.70.5％,P＜0.05).The disease-free survival of the preoperative TACE group was higher than the direct surgery group(23.03 months vs.20.14 months,P＜0.05).The incidence of treatment-related adverse events after surgery in the preoperative TACE group was higher than that in the direct surgery group(34.4％vs.20.5％,P＞0.05).Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that different treatment methods,tumor number ≥ 2,and tumor microvascular invasion were prognostic factors affecting tumor recurrence.No severe adverse reactions occurred in either group,and no deaths caused by adverse reactions were observed.Conclusion Compared with direct surgery,preoperative TACE can help improve early postoperative recurrence,prolong patients'disease-free survival,and do not lead to serious adverse events.
