Objective Jejunal interposition is an important option for restoring gastrointestinal continuity in patients with complex esophageal cancer in whom the stomach is unavailable for reconstruction due to previous gastrectomy, tumor involvement, failed gastric conduit, or other constraints. Although the jejunum offers a caliber similar to the esophagus, a rich blood supply, and preserved peristaltic function, anatomical variations in mesenteric length and vascular arcades render long-segment and high-level reconstruction susceptible to excessive tension, mesenteric torsion, venous congestion, and inadequate distal perfusion. This consensus aims to provide standardized recommendations for the application of jejunal interposition in this specific patient population. Methods This consensus was developed in accordance with the WHO Handbook for Guideline Development and Chinese national guideline development standards, with reference to the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research & Evaluation Ⅱ(AGREE Ⅱ), Reporting Items for Practice Guidelines in Healthcare (RIGHT), and Scientific, Transparent and Applicable Rankings (STAR) checklists. The project was registered on the international practice guidelines registry platform (PREPARE-2026CN1384). The working group systematically searched Chinese and English evidence addressing 12 clinical questions. Evidence was graded using the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine (OCEBM) 2009 system, with structured appraisal of risk of bias, inconsistency, indirectness, and imprecision. Recommendations were formulated through two rounds of Delphi surveys and a face-to-face consensus meeting, with an agreement threshold of ≥75%. Results The consensus generated 12 recommendations covering indications, selection between jejunum and colon, preoperative assessment, surgical approach and reconstruction route, pedicled jejunal interposition (PJI), supercharged pedicled jejunal interposition (SPJ), indocyanine green (ICG) perfusion assessment, perioperative nutrition, management of anastomotic leakage, long-term follow-up, and special treatment scenarios. Given that the available direct evidence is predominantly derived from single-center retrospective cohorts and case series, recommendations extrapolated from general esophagectomy or other gastrointestinal surgical evidence are deliberately phrased with caution. Conclusion Jejunal interposition is a safe and effective approach for digestive tract reconstruction in patients with complex esophageal cancer in whom the stomach is unavailable. This consensus emphasizes that clinical decision-making should be individualized based on the patient's prior treatment history, reconstruction height, vascular anatomy, technical availability, and institutional experience in the Chinese context.

Objective:To summarize the experience and effect of extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) with in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA).Methods:The data of 70 patients with AMI-IHCA-ECPR in extracorporeal life support center of the first affiliated hospital of Nanjing medical university from January 2017 to December 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were grouped by Survival/death at 90 days, with/without combined intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP). Age, sex, Charlson comorbidity index, initial rhythm, Gensini score, ECPR initial blood gas pH and lactate value, no-flow time, time from cardiac arrest to extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) initiation (CA-Pump On time), ECMO treatment time, 90-day survival rate were analyzed.Results:Among the 70 patients with AMI-IHCA-ECPR, 22 (31.4%) patients survived at 90 days, of whom 19 (86.4%) patients had good neurological outcomes. About 50% of AMI-IHCA-ECPR patients had severe multi-vessel coronary artery lesions, and there was no significant difference in survival outcomes among different vascular lesions. In the IABP group, the success rate of ECMO withdrawal was low, the duration of ECMO treatment was long, and the combination of IABP did not reduce the mortality. Compared with the death group, the 90-day survival group had a lower Gensini score, a higher ECPR initial blood gas pH and a lower lactic acid value.Conclusions:AMI-IHCA-ECPR combined with IABP did not show significant survival benefits, and about 50% of patients had severe lesions of multiple coronary arteries. It is difficult to evaluate the prognosis based on a single offender vessel. It is recommended to evaluate the outcome of patients by quantification of the severity of coronary artery lesions by Gensini score.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of non-ECG-gated scan using wide-body detector in left atrial computed tomo-graphy angiography(CTA)and to assess its value in evaluating left atrial appendage closure(LAAC)outcomes.Methods Patients who underwent LAAC and completed left atrial CTA were prospectively selected.Participants were randomly divided into groups A and B.In group A,the heart rate was measured using a finger clip oximeter before the examination,and the heart rate was set as the simula-ted heart rate.The simulated signal was generated by the CT equipment to complete the examination.In group B,the conventional ECG-gated scan was adopted.The residual leakage of left atrial appendage occluder,image quality,patient comfort and radiation dose of the two groups were compared,and statistical analysis was performed for these indicators.Results Both groups completed the evaluation of the endothelialization degree of the left atrial appendage occluder,and there was no significant difference in the objective image quality evaluation or subjective image score between the two groups(P＞0.05).The total scores of the physiological dimension,psy-chological dimension,social cultural dimension and environmental dimension of patients in group A were higher than those in group B(P＜0.001),and the volume CT dose index(CTDIvol)and dose length product(DLP)decreased by 25％and 25.36％respectively,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.001).Conclusion During the left atrial CTA examination,the wide-body detector with non-ECG-gated scan mode can provide good image quality for clinical use and observe the embolization of the left atrial appendage after LAAC surgery.At the same time,it can effectively reduce the radiation dose for patients and improve patient comfort dur-ing the examination,showing high clinical feasibility and appli-cation value.

Objective:To investigate the treatment and prognosis of esophageal cancer patients with pulmonary resection history.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 58 esophageal cancer patients with pulmonary resection history who were admitted to Chest Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine and Jiangxi Provincial People's Hospital from May 2019 to April 2024 were collected. There were 52 males and 6 females, aged (69±3)years. Observation indicators: (1) surgical and postopera-tive conditions; (2) postoperative pathological examination results; (3) follow-up; (4) stratified analysis. Comparison of measurement data with normal distribution between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Comparison of count data between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Comparison of ordinal data between groups was conducted using the non-parametric rank sum test. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to plot survival curve and calculate survival rate, and the Log-rank test was used for survival analysis. Results:(1) Surgical and postoperative conditions. Of the 58 esophageal cancer patients, 49 patients underwent transthoracic approach (26 cases of ipsilateral approach and 23 cases of contralateral approach of pulmonary resection history), and 9 patients underwent mediastinoscopic-laparoscopic approach. There were 57 cases with R 0 resection and 1 case with R 2 resection because of tumor invading carina. The total operation time of 58 patients was (246±27)minutes, and the volume of intraoperative blood loss was (114±29)mL. There was no unplanned reoperation or perioperative death for all patients. The duration of postoperative hospital stay of 58 patients was (10.4±4.6)days, and time for intensive care unit stay was (1.4±0.5)days, and no patient readmitted to intensive care unit due to changes in conditions. The postoperative total incidence of complications of 58 patients was 41.4%(24/58). The Clavien-Dindo grading of complications for all patients was 1-2 grade. (2) Postoperative pathological examination results. Results of postoperative pathological examination showed there were 51 cases of squamous cell carcinoma, 6 cases of adenocarcinoma, and 1 case of melanoma. Number of lymph node dissected of 58 patients was 27±6. The ratio of patient with positive lymph node was 37.9%(22/58). One patient may experience more than 1 region of positive lymph node metastasis. Results of postoperative pathological staging showed 5 cases of ⅠA stage, 2 cases of ⅠB stage, 13 cases of ⅡA stage, 15 cases of ⅡB stage, 4 cases of ⅢA stage, 16 cases of ⅢB stage, and 3 cases of ⅣA stage. Thirteen of the 58 patients underwent neoadjuvant therapy, with the pathological staging as 6 cases of Ⅰ stage, 4 cases of Ⅱ stage, 3 cases of ⅢB stage after therapy. Results of postoperative tumor regression grade for the 13 patients with neoadjuvant therapy showed 4 cases of grad 0, 3 cases of grade 1, 6 cases of grade 2. (3) Follow-up. All 58 patients were followed for 24 (4, 50)months, and no patient died within 90 days after surgery. During the follow-up period, 19 patients experienced tumor recurrence and metastasis and 17 patients died. Twenty-one patients underwent postoperative adjuvant therapy, including 7 cases with chemoradiotherapy, 7 cases with chemotherapy, 3 cases with chemotherapy and immunotherapy, 2 cases with immuno-therapy, 2 cases with radiotherapy. The postoperative 1-, 2-year overall survival rates of the 58 patients were 91.3%, 78.7%, respectively, of whom undergoing McKeown surgery and mediastinoscopic-laparoscopic surgery with postoperative 1-, 2-year overall survival rates as 89.2%, 83.1% and 85.7%, 53.6%, respectively. The postoperative 1-, 2-year esophageal cancer specific survival rates for patients undergoing McKeown surgery and mediastinoscopic-laparoscopic surgery were 94.4%, 87.9% and 85.7%, 71.4%, respectively. There was no significant difference in postoperative 1-, 2-year overall survival rates and postoperative 1-, 2-year esophageal cancer specific survival rates between patients undergoing McKeown surgery and mediastinoscopic-laparoscopic surgery ( P>0.05). (4) Stratified analysis. Of the 49 patients underwent transthoracic approach for esophageal cancer, there were significant differences in surgical method, surgical type, time of chest surgery, cases with upper mediastinal lymph node dissection, and duration of postoperative hospital stay between patients with pulmonary resection history as ipsilateral approach and contralateral approach ( χ2=11.74, 11.68, t=-2.25, χ2=8.45, t=-2.17, P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in total operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, the number of lymph node dissected, post-operative total complications, and postoperative pathological TNM staging ( P>0.05). For patients with pulmonary resection history as ipsilateral approach and contralateral approach, the postopera-tive 1-, 2-year esophageal cancer specific survival rates were 95.5%, 95.5% and 81.4%, 71.1%, showing a significant difference between them ( χ2=5.63, P<0.05). Conclusions:The transthoracic approach and mediastinoscopic-laparoscopic approach are safe and feasible for esophageal cancer patients with pulmonary resection history. Compared with patients with pulmonary resection history as contralateral approach, patients with pulmonary resection history as ipsilateral approach have a higher ratio of McKeown surgery, minimally invasive surgery and upper mediastinal lymph node dissection, shorter time of chest surgery and duration of postoperative hospital stay, better esophageal cancer specific survival rate. And there is no increase in perioperative risk.

Objective:To summarize the experience and effect of extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) on the treatment of sudden cardiac death (SCD).Methods:The data of 120 adults with SCD-ECPR in emergency department of the first affiliated hospital of Nanjing Medical University from April 2015 to April 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were grouped by Survival/death at 90 days, OHCA/IHCA (out-of-hospital/in-hospital cardiac arrest), with/without acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and divided according to 60 min of the time from cardiac arrest to extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) initiation (CA-Pump On time). Age, sex, Charlson comorbidity index, IHCA/OHCA, initial rhythm, no-flow time, CA-Pump On time, ECMO evacuation success rate, 90-day survival rate, ECMO treatment time were analyzed.Results:①Total of 114 adult patients with SCD-ECPR were enrolled, and 45 (39.5%) patients survived at 90 days, of whom 40 (88.9%) patients had good neurological outcomes.②Age and no-flow time were significantly lower in the 90-day survival group than that in death group, and the proportion of IHCA and shockable initial rhythm was higher. ③The no flow time in IHCA group was significantly lower than that in OHCA group, and the 90-day survival rate was higher. ④OHCA and regional interhospital transport prolonged CA-Pump On time and reduced the 90-day survival rate. ⑤The AMI group was older with a higher Charlson comorbidity index, and the 90-day survival rate was significantly lower than that in non-AMI group.Conclusions:ECPR improves the prognosis of patients with SCD, there are high benefits in patients with long healthy life expectancy, IHCA, shockable initial rhythm, and short no flow time. The smooth life-saving chain of SCD-ECPR improves survival rate, by screening high benefit candidates in patients with OHCA, delayed initiation of ECPR or requiring interhospital transport, despite CA-Pump On time > 60 min, there is still survival potential.

Objective:To investigate the major adverse kidney events (MAKE) in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) with extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR).Methods:The data of 75 patients with AMI-ECPR in Emergency Medicine Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from April 2015 to April 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were grouped by survival/death at 90 days, with/without renal replacement therapy (RRT), and whether to initiate RRT because of acute kidney injury (AKI). age, sex, Charlson comorbidity index, OHCA/IHCA (out-of-hospital/in-hospital cardiac arrest), initial rhythm, Gensini score, ECPR initial blood gas pH and lactate value, no-flow time, time from cardiac arrest to extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) initiation (CA-Pump On time), ECMO and RRT treatment time, 90-day survival rate were analyzed. Moreover, the renal function of the survivors was followed up.Results:① Total of 68 AMI-ECPR patients were enrolled, 22 (32.4%) patients survived at 90 days, 54 (79.4%) combined with RRT, and 48 (70.6%) MAKE within 90 days. ②Compared with the death group, the 90-day survival group had a higher proportion of initial shockable heart rhythm, a lower Gensini score, a higher ECPR initial blood gas pH and a lower lactic acid value. ③The severity of coronary artery disease, ECPR initial acidosis and hyperlactacemia in the RRT group was significantly higher than that in the non-RRT group, and all the non-RRT group patients survived. ④ There was no difference between the AKI-RRT group and the non-AKI-RRT group. Of 21 patients with stage 1 AKI initiating RRT, 5 survived, one of them still needs RRT for 90 days, and 7 patients with stage 2 to 3 AKI initiating RRT died.Conclusions:The 90-day MAKE rate in AMI-ECPR patients was as high as 70.6%, and the 90-day renal insufficiency rate in AMI-ECPR survivors with AKI was as high as 20.0%. Active initiation of RRT to avoid AKI or early initiation of RRT may improve the prognosis of AMI-ECPR patients.
