Objective:To investigate the application value of gastric suspension method in supra-pancreatic lymph node dissection of laparoscopic radical gastrectomy of gastric cancer.Method:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 84 patients who under-went laparoscopic radical gastrectomy of gastric cancer at Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from August 2023 to July 2024 were collected. There were 61 males and 23 females, aged (64±11)years. Of the 84 patients, 42 patients undergoing supra-pancreatic lymph node dissection during laparoscopic radical gastrectomy of gastric cancer with traditional method for surgical field exposure were divided into the control group, and 42 patients undergoing supra-pancreatic lymph node dissection during laparoscopic radical gastrectomy of gastric cancer with gastric suspension method for surgical field exposure were divided into the suspension group. Observation indicators: (1) surgical conditions; (2) postoperative conditions. Comparison of measurement data with normal distribution between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Comparison of measurement data with skewed distribution between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Comparison of count data between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Results:(1) Surgical condi-tions. The time for supra-pancreatic lymph node dissection of the control group was (78±14)minutes. Number of grasping operations was 116±34, number of bleeding sites caused by grasping operations was 7.8±2.7, and operation time was (3.9±0.8)hours. The above indicators of the suspension group were (59±12)minutes, 68±19, 2.1±1.5, and (3.3±0.7)hours, respectively. There were significant diffe-rences in the above indicators between the two groups ( t=5.42, 8.10, 8.31, 3.14, P<0.05). (2) Post-operative conditions. The tumor diameter was 2.5(2.0,3.5)cm for patients of the control group, versus 3.0(2.4, 4.4)cm for patients of the suspension group, showing a significant difference between the two groups ( Z=-1.98, P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared with the traditional non-suspension method, the gastric suspension method in laparoscopic radical gastrectomy of gastric cancer for supra-pancreatic lymph node dissection is associated with shorter operation time and less trauma.

Objective:To evaluate the functional outcomes and postoperative complications associated with modified Toupet-like (mToupet-like) anastomosis following proximal gastrectomy for patients with gastric tumors.Methods:After proximal gastrectomy, barbed sutures (2-3 stitches) in the seromuscular layer were used to secure the anterior wall of the stomach at a distance of 1-2 cm from the closure line and the posterior wall of the esophagus at a distance of 5.0 cm from the closure line. The remnant stomach was then positioned posterior to the esophagus on the greater curvature side. Esophagogastric anterior wall anastomosis (manual or circular stapling) was performed at the greater curvature of the remnant stomach, 3 cm distal to the gastroesophageal fixation point. A Toupet-like folding procedure was conducted by folding the reconstructed gastric fundus and wall anteriorly from behind the esophagus and embedding the esophagus within a 270° wrap at the site of stomach-esophagus fixation.Results:Twelve patients with gastric tumors underwent proximal partial gastrectomy with mToupet-like anastomosis in the Department of Gastric Surgery at Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from January to March 2024. Among them, 10 diagnosed as upper gastric adenocarcinoma, and 2 diagnosed as gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors. The cohort included nine male patients and three female patients, aged 46 to 77 years old, with a body mass index (BMI) ranging from 19.7 to 27.3 kg/m2. The maximum tumor diameter was less than 4 cm, and the predicted residual gastric volume exceeded one-half. Laparoscopic surgery was performed in 11 patients, while only 1 patient underwent open surgery. The mean duration of mToupet-like anastomosis was 48.3±8.7 minutes with an estimated intraoperative blood loss was 53.0±11.2 ml. All the 12 patients successfully achieved R0 resection. Among these patietns, the median postoperative hospital stay was 8.5 (7.0, 11.0) days, and the average hospitalization cost was 5.0±0.2 ten thousand yuan. No Clavien-Dindo grade II or higher complications were observed during the perioperative period. Patients were followed up for 6 to 8 months after operation, and no cases of reflux esophagitis were detected by gastroscopy, and no patient required long-term oral proton pump inhibitors.Conclusions:mToupet-like anastomosis for digestive tract reconstruction after proximal gastrectomy is a safe and feasible technique, demonstrating favorable preliminary efficacy.

Objective:To explore the advantages of robotic-arm assisted total hip arthroplasty (rTHA) in acetabular component positioning and lower limb length assessment in patients with severe pelvic coronal tilt.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 122 patients with unilateral end-stage hip disease and coronal pelvic tilt angle >3° who underwent total hip arthroplasty (THA) at the First Medical Center of PLA General Hospital from June 2022 to December 2023. Among them, 44 patients underwent rTHA, and 78 underwent manual THA (mTHA). The rTHA group included 18 males and 26 females, with an average age of 60.5±9.3 years; the mTHA group included 41 males and 37 females, with an average age of 58.5±8.4 years. Compare the differences in the anteversion angle, abduction angle, pelvic tilt angle, leg length discrepancy (LLD) of the acetabular prosthesis, and the proportions of patients with LLD>0.5 cm and >1 cm between the two groups of patients after surgery. Calculate the proportion of outlier rates of acetabular abduction angle (<30° or >45°), and proportions within Callanan's safe zone. The early efficacy of the hip joint was evaluated by using the modified Harris score and joint range of motion.Results:All patients were followed up for 6 to 12 months, with an average of 8 months. All the surgical incisions of the patients achieved primary healing. Postoperative comparisons showed no statistically significant differences in acetabular abduction angle (39.5°±3.3° vs. 38.4°±7.3°) or anteversion angle (20.7°±1.6° vs. 19.7°±1.6°) between rTHA and mTHA groups ( P>0.05). However, pelvic tilt angle [2.5° (1.1°, 3.6°) vs. 3.5° (2.3°, 5.9°)] showed a statistically significant difference ( U=4.371, P=0.008). The rTHA group exhibited smaller absolute LLD [0.2 (0.1, 0.4) cm vs. 0.5 (0.2, 0.5) cm] and lower proportions of LLD >0.5 cm [14% (6/44) vs. 49% (38/78)] and >1 cm [2% (1/44) vs. 18% (14/78)], with statistical significance ( P<0.05). The rTHA group had a lower outlier rate for acetabular abduction angle (<30°or >45°) compared to the mTHA group [2% (1/44) vs. 33% (26/78)], with statistical significance (χ 2=10.388, P<0.001). Taking the Callanan safety zone as the standard, the proportion of acetabular cups within the safe zone was significantly higher in the rTHA group (98%, 43/44) compared to the mTHA group (67%, 52/78), with a statistically significant difference (χ 2=13.998, P<0.001). The modified Harris score and hip joint range of motion in the mTHA group increased from 47.6±6.6 points and 83° (73°, 88°) before the operation to 83.5±11.2 points and 118° (110°, 122°) at the last follow-up, respectively. The rTHA group increased from 46.5±9.2 points and 79° (71°, 90°) before the operation to 85.0±12.5 points and 124° (116°, 130°) at the last follow-up. The differences in the modified Harris score and hip joint range of motion between the two groups before the operation and at the last follow-up were statistically significant ( P<0.05). However, there was no statistically significant difference between the groups at the last follow-up ( P>0.05). No THA-related complications occurred during follow-up period. Conclusion:For patients with end-stage hip joint diseases with coronal tilt exceeding 3°, robotic-assisted technology significantly improves the accuracy of acetabular component placement during THA and offers better control of postoperative LLD.

Objective:To explore the clinical application value of serum N-glycan profiles for evaluating the severity of liver tissue inflammation in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB).Methods:A total of 221 CHB patients who underwent liver biopsy at Mengchao Hepatobiliary Hospital of Fujian Medical University from January 2018 to December 2020 were retrospectively enrolled. The Scheuer scoring system was used to assess the histological inflammation grade of the liver tissue. Serum N-glycan levels were measured using DNA sequencer-assisted N-glycan fingerprinting (NGFP). Using the upper limit of the alanine aminotransferase (ALT) reference value (40 U/L) as a cutoff, logistic regression models were developed to construct diagnostic models under two scenarios: normal ALT or abnormal ALT. Models based on serum N-glycan levels and serum N-glycan levels combined with routine laboratory indicators, were used to non-invasively evaluation of various pathological grades of liver tissue inflammation in CHB patients. The DeLong test was used to compare the diagnostic efficacy of the models by analyzing the areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Glycosylation-related gene expression differences associated with varying degrees of liver inflammation were analyzed using the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database.Results:In CHB patients with normal ALT level, the relative abundances of N-glycan structure peak 1 (NGA2F) and peak 2 (NGA2FB) increased with higher liver inflammation grades, while the relative abundance of peak 5 (NA2) decreased ( P<0.05). The AUCs of the HIS-G model (HIS-G A) and its enhanced version (HIS-G A Plus) for identifying significant inflammation and necrosis (≥G2, indicating the initiation of antiviral therapy) were 0.805 (95% CI 0.690-0.899) and 0.904 (95% CI 0.821-0.960), respectively. In CHB patients with ALT>40 U/L, the relative abundances of peaks 1 (NGA2F), 2 (NGA2FB), and 3 (NG1A2F) increased with higher liver inflammation grades, while the relative abundances of peaks 8 (NA3) and 11 (NA4) decreased ( P<0.05). The AUCs of the HIS-G model (HIS-G B) and its enhanced version (HIS-G B Plus) for identifying significant inflammation (≥G2) were 0.810 (95% CI 0.727-0.889) and 0.838 (95% CI 0.754-0.901), respectively. With increasing liver inflammation grades, the expression levels of four glycosyltransferase genes (CHST4, FUT8, SLC51B, and ST8SIA4) were significantly upregulated ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Serum N-glycan biomarker models can be used to assist in evaluating the severity of liver tissue inflammation in CHB patients with both normal and abnormal ALT levels.
