Objective:To explore the application effect of preoperative autologous blood localization method in laparoscopic resection of gastric stromal tumors in unfavorable areas of the stomach.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the case data of 40 patients with gastric stromal tumors in unfavorable locations admitted to Jinjiang Hospital from January 2019 to December 2022. The patients were divided into a control group (intraoperative endoscopic localization method) and an autologous blood localization group according to different intraoperative lesion localization methods, with 20 cases in each group. The surgical time, intraoperative blood loss, hospitalization time, postoperative exhaust time, and adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.Results:The surgery time of the autologous blood localization group was shorter than that of the control group [(92.30±8.80)min vs (108.20±14.87)min, P<0.05]. There was no statistically significant difference in intraoperative bleeding, hospitalization time, and postoperative exhaust time between the two groups (all P>0.05). Two groups of patients did not show an increase in inflammatory indicators such as white blood cells and C-reactive protein on the day after surgery. Both groups of patients did not experience adverse reactions such as fever, abdominal pain, or postoperative complications. Conclusions:The autologous blood injection localization method provides a safe, simple, and effective method for preoperative localization of gastric stromal tumors in unfavorable areas of the stomach under laparoscopy, and is worthy of clinical promotion and use.

Objective To compare the accuracy of the original-mirror alignment algorithm and a landmark-indepen-dent method in constructing the midsagittal plane(MSP)of the cone beam computed tomography in patients with facial deformities,so as to provide a theoretical basis for symmetric analysis.Methods The study was approved by the hospi-tal ethics committee.Cone beam computed tomography data of 30 patients with facial deformities were obtained,and the output was saved in DICOM format.The scan data were imported into Mimics 21.0;after segmentation,three-dimension-al(3D)skull models were reconstructed.Furthermore,the 3D scan data of skulls were transformed into mirror skull models using Geomagic Studio 2014 reverse engineering software.The MSP of each skull was generated using both the original-mirror alignment algorithm and the landmark-independent method.Original-mirror alignment algorithm:the original skull model and its mirror model were combined,and the new data to calculate the MSP(S1)of the original data in Geomagic Studio 2014 were obtained.Landmark-independent method:the following anatomical landmarks were deter-mined using Mimics 21.0:nasion(N),crista galli(CG),sella(S),basion(Ba),vomer(V),posterior nasal spine(PNS),in-cisive foramen(IF),and anterior nasal spine(ANS).The MSP(S2)of best fit was then found by minimizing the mean square distance of these eight anatomical landmarks to a plane in Geomagic Studio 2014.The results of the S1 and S2 models constructed using the original-mirror alignment algorithm and the landmark-independent method,respectively,were scored subjectively by five senior maxillofacial surgeons,and a paired t-test was performed for the two groups.The internal consistency analysis was performed based on secondary experiments to verify the repeatability of the expert evaluation method.Results The average scores of the S1 and S2 models were 65.73 and 75.90,respectively.The aver-age score of the model constructed using the landmark-independent method was significantly higher than that of the model constructed using the original-mirror alignment algorithm(P＜0.01).Furthermore,the results of the internal con-sistency analysis showed that the expert evaluation method had good reliability and validity.Conclusion In patients with facial deformities,the MSP constructed using the landmark-independent method is superior to that constructed us-ing the original-mirror alignment algorithm.This study provides a theoretical basis for maxillofacial symmetry analysis in clinical settings and is clinically feasible.

Objective:To analyze the distribution of clopidogrel metabolism-related gene variability in Kawasaki disease (KD) children with coronary artery lesions (CAL) across different age groups and the impact of genetic variability on the efficacy of clopidogrel antiplatelet therapy.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted. Clinical data were collected from 46 KD children with CAL who were hospitalized in the Cardiovascular Center of Children′s Hospital of Fudan University between January 2021 and August 2022 and were treated with clopidogrel, including gender, age, body mass index, course of KD, CAL severity grade, and baseline platelet count. According to their age, the children were divided into ≥2-year-old group and <2-year-old group. Their platelet responsiveness was assessed by adenosine diphosphate-induced platelet inhibition rate (ADPi) calculated via thromboelastography, and children were categorized into high on-treatment platelet reactivity (HTPR) and normal on-treatment platelet reactivity (NTPR) groups. Genotypes of CYP2C19, PON1 and ABCB1 were detected. The t test, one-way analysis of variance and Chi-square test were used for intergroup comparison. Results:Among the 46 KD children with CAL, 34 were male and 12 were female; 37 were ≥2-year-old and 9 were <2-year-old; 25 cases were in the HTPR group and 21 cases were in the NTPR group, with 19 HTPR and 18 NTPR in the ≥2-year-old group, and 6 HTPR and 3 NTPR in the <2-year-old group. Genetic analysis showed that 92 alleles among the 46 children, with frequencies of CYP2C19*1, CYP2C19*2, CYP2C19*3, CYP2C19*17, PON1 192Q, PON1 192R, ABCB1 3435C, ABCB1 3435T at 59% (54/92), 32% (29/92), 9% (8/92), 1% (1/92), 36% (36/92), 64% (59/92), 63% (58/92) and 37% (34/92), respectively. Analysis of the impact of genotype on ADPi revealed that in children aged ≥2 years, those with CYP2C19*1/*3 genotype had significantly lower ADPi than those with CYP2C19*1/*1 genotype ((34±15)% vs. (61±29)%, t=2.18, P=0.036). There were also no significant difference in ADPi among children with PON1 192Q homozygous, PON1 192R heterozygote and PON1 192R homozygous genotypes ((40±22)% vs. (52±33)% vs. (65±27)%, F=2.17, P=0.130), or among those with ABCB1 3435C homozygous, ABCB1 3435T heterozygote and ABCB1 3435T homozygous genotypes ((55±34)% vs. (60±27)% vs. (49±24)%, F=0.33, P=0.719). In <2-year-old group, there were no significant differences in ADPi across CYP2C19*1/*1, CYP2C19*1/*2 and CYP2C19*2*2 genotypes ((40±20)% vs. (53±37)% vs. (34±16)%, F=0.37, P>0.05). There were no significant differences in ADPi across CYP2C19*1/*1 and CYP2C19*1/*3 genotypes ((44±27)% vs. (42±20)%, t=0.08, P>0.05). There were no significant differences in ADPi across PON1 192Q homozygous, PON1 192R heterozygote and PON1 192R homozygous genotypes (45% vs. (55±27)% vs. (24±5)%, F=1.83, P>0.05). There were no significant differences in ADPi across ABCB1 3435C homozygous, ABCB1 3435T heterozygote and ABCB1 3435T homozygous genotypes ((36±16)% vs. (50±35)% vs. 45%, F=0.29, P>0.05). The risk analysis of HTPR in different genotypes revealed that in children aged ≥2 years, carrying at least 1 or 2 loss-of-function alleles of CYP2C19 was a risk factor for HTPR ( OR=4.69, 10.00, 95% CI 1.11-19.83, 0.84-119.32, P=0.033, 0.046, respectively), and PON1 192R homozygosity and carrying at least one PON1 192R allele were protective factors against HTPR ( OR=0.08, 0.13, 95% CI 0.01-0.86, 0.01-1.19, P=0.019, 0.043, respectively). Conclusion:KD children aged ≥2 years carrying CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles and PON1 192Q are more likely to develop HTPR.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors for ankle varus deformity after McFarland fracture surgery in children.Methods:A total of 48 children with McFarland fracture who underwent surgical treatment in the Second General Hospital of Fuzhou from January 2015 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, including 24 males and 24 females, aged 11.2±3.2 years (range, 2-14 years), 19 cases on the left side and 29 cases on the right side. Salter-Harris classification: 34 cases of type III and 14 cases of type IV. Causes of injuries: 28 cases of sports injuries, 15 cases of fall injuries, and 5 cases of car accident injuries. The time from injury to operation was 2.6±1.7 d (range, 1-7 d). The reduction methods included closed reduction in 38 cases and open reduction in 10 cases. Tibial internal fixation: 42 cases of hollow screws, 6 cases of Kirschner pins. There were 30 cases of combined fibula fracture, 20 cases were fixed with plate, 8 cases were fixed with Kirschner's pin, and 2 cases were not treated with internal fixation. The internal fixation survival time was 6.4±2.8 months (range, 1-12 months). The lateral distal tibial angle (LDTA) was used to determine whether the child had ankle varus deformity. The general data and perioperative indicators of the two groups were compared, and the indicators with statistically significant differences were included in binary logistic regression analysis to determine the independent risk factors for ankle varus deformity after McFarland fracture surgery in children. The receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn and the area under the curve of each independent risk factor was calculated.Results:All patients successfully completed the operation and were followed up for 39.2±21.8 months (range, 15-98 months). At the last follow-up, all the 48 children with McFarland fracture had bone union and the internal fixation was successfully removed, and 5 of them had ankle varus deformity. The LDTA of the affected side was 98.6°±4.8° (range, 94°-106°) in the ankle varus deformity group and 89.0°±0.8° (range, 87°-91°) in the non-ankle varus deformity group. The age of children in the ankle varus deformity group was 6.6±5.1 years, which was younger than that in the non-ankle varus deformity group (11.7±2.5 years), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=3.772, P<0.001). The survival time of internal fixation in the ankle varus deformity group was 4.4±2.2 months, which was shorter than that in the non-ankle varus deformity group (6.6±2.8 months), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=1.750, P=0.087). There was no significant difference in gender, side, cause of injury, fracture type, initial displacement distance, fibular fracture, time from injury to operation, reduction method, or fixation method between the two groups ( P>0.05). Age and duration of internal fixation were included in binary logistic regression analysis. The results showed that age ( OR=0.717, 95% CI: 0.543, 0.945, P=0.018) was an independent risk factor for postoperative ankle varus deformity in children with McFarland fracture. The receiver operating characteristic curve of independent risk factors predicting postoperative ankle varus deformity in children with McFarland fracture was drawn and the area under the curve was calculated. The results showed that the best cut-off value of age was 5.5 years, and the area under the curve was 0.807, and the prediction efficiency of the prediction model was good. Conclusion:Age<5.5 years is an independent risk factor for postoperative varus ankle deformity in children with McFarland fracture.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy and quality of life of patients between Billroth Ⅱ+ Braun anastomosis and simple Billroth Ⅱ anastomosis in digestive tract reconstruction after laparoscopic distal gastric cancer radical resection.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on clinical data of 68 patients who underwent laparoscopic distal gastric cancer radical resection in Jinjiang Municipal Hospital from January 2019 to January 2022. Forty patients who underwent Billroth Ⅱ+ Braun anastomosis were included in the observation group, and 28 patients who underwent simple Billroth Ⅱ anastomosis were included in the control group. Perioperative indicators and postoperative indicators one year after surgery were collected to observe the safety and efficacy of patients after surgery.Results:There were no significant differences in operation time, intraoperative bleeding volume, postoperative exhaust time, time to remove gastric tube and drainage tube, and postoperative hospital stay between the two groups (all P>0.05). There were also no significant differences in postoperative complications between the two groups ( P>0.05). One year after surgery, the incidence of food retention and residual gastritis in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05), while there were no significant differences in the incidence of bile reflux and reflux esophagitis between the two groups (all P>0.05). One year after surgery, nutritional evaluation showed that the total protein decline and prognostic nutritional index (PNI) in the observation group were lower than those in the control group, with significant differences (all P<0.05). The incidence of bloating and reflux symptoms in the observation group one year after surgery was lower than that in the control group, with significant differences (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Billroth Ⅱ+ Braun anastomosis is a safe method for digestive tract reconstruction after laparoscopic distal gastric cancer resection, which can improve patients′ quality of life after surgery.

Compared with other solid tumors, the application of immune checkpoint inhibitors in gastrointestinal neoplasms is still in the stage of continuous exploration. This paper intends to review the relevant research and latest progress of immune checkpoint inhibitors in advanced gastric cancer, mismatch repair function defect/microsatellite high instability and mismatch repair function integrity/microsatellite stability or microsatellite low instability, and further evaluate the effectiveness and safety of immunotherapy combined with relevant studies.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of intravenous infusion of tranexamic acid(TXA)on perioperative blood loss in geriatric patients with hip fracture.Methods:In this retrospective study, 54 out of 95 patients with hip fracture aged from 65 years to 100 years, treated at the Department of Trauma and Osteology, West China Hospital of Sichuan University from June 2020 to June 2021 were finally enrolled.Their clinical data were collected.All patients underwent closed reduction PFNA surgery.They were divided into three groups: (1)Control group(n=18): intravenous infusion of normal saline at 30 min before surgery; (2)Single dose group(n=18): TXA(25 mg/kg)was intravenously injected at 30min before surgery; (3)multiple dose group(n=18): 25 mg/kg of TXA was intravenously injected at 30 min before surgery and 15 mg/kg injected again at 3 h and 6 h after surgery.Total blood loss and the incidence of postoperative deep venous thrombosis among 3 group patients were compared.Results:There were no statistically significant differences in gender, age, preoperative platelets, preoperative activated partial thrombin time and preoperative prothrombin time among control group, single dose group and multiple dose group(all P>0.05). Perioperative blood loss was estimated to be 620(330, 1080)ml, 380(270, 490)ml and 520(190, 750)ml in the control group, single dose group and multiple dose group, respectively, with statistical significance( H=8.666, P<0.05). Total blood loss in single dose group was less than in both control( P<0.05, with statistical significance)and in multiple groups( P>0.05, without statistical significance), and total blood loss in multiple dose group was lower than in control( P>0.05, without statistical significance), and higher than in single dose group( P>0.05, without statistical significance). Color ultrasonography was performed on the 1 st and 7 th day after surgery in 3 groups, and no deep venous thrombosis or pulmonary embolism was found in all groups. Conclusions:Intravenous infusion of TXA at half an hour before surgery can effectively reduce the total peri-operative blood loss without increasing the risk of thrombosis.A multiple preoperative intravenous drip of TXA should be cautious as compared with a single preoperative intravenous drip of TXA.

Objective:To explore the value and advantages of perioperative nutritional support in enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS).Methods:The clinical data of patients admitted to Jinjiang City Hospital for acute abdomen and undergoing surgery from April 2018 to January 2021 were collected. They were divided into two groups: the enhanced recovery after surgery group (ERAS group, 78 cases) and the traditional perioperative management group (CPM group, 75 cases). The nutritional risk assessment of NRS2002 was performed on admission to the two groups. The postoperative inflammatory indexes, nutrition and rehabilitation related indexes were compared between the two groups.Results:There was no significant difference in preoperative NRS 2002 score, operation method, operation time and blood loss between ERAS group and CPM group ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in C-reactive protein (CRP), albumin (Alb) and prealbumin (PA) between ERAS group and CPM group before operation ( P>0.05). The ALb and PA of the two groups on the first day after operation were significantly lower than those before operation, and the CRP levels on the first, third, fifth and seventh day after operation were higher than those before operation( P<0.05), with significant difference. The CRP level of ERAS group was lower than that of CPM group on the third day after operation, with significant difference ( P<0.05). On the 7th day after operation, the levels of Alb and PA in ERAS group were higher than those in CPM group ( P<0.05). The recovery time of gastrointestinal function and hospitalization days in ERAS group were significantly reduced, and the total cost of hospitalization was significantly less than that in CPM group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Perioperative effective nutritional support is helpful to accelerate the recovery of patients with acute abdomen. The application of enhanced recovery after surgery can effectively improve the nutritional status of patients with acute abdomen, reduce the incidence of complications and improve the clinical outcome of patients.

We report a case of maternal asymptomatic COVID-19 in a patient with typical CT image of pneumonia in the third trimester, and both the mother and baby were well. The patient, a 30-year-old female, was transferred to Yichun People's Hospital at 37 +3 gestational weeks because of a positive 2019 novel coronavirus nucleic acid result over seven hours. Her husband and mother-in-law were diagnosed with COVID-19 eight days before her admission and on the same day, respectively. The patient reported no discomfort before admission, and there were no abnormalities in the prenatal course during her pregnancy. On February 13 (the second day of admission), a patchy blurred shadow was observed in the lower lobe of the right lung in chest CT scan, and a live baby girl was delivered by a precaution-based emergent cesarean section because of suspected fetal distress shown in electrical fetal heart monitoring. Both the mother and the newborn were isolated separately after the operation without etiological examination of amniotic fluid, umbilical cord blood, placenta, etc. All the medical staff involved in the cesarean section were isolated as well. The mother was healthy and remained asymptomatic after delivery, while antiviral and anti-inflammatory treatment was offered. COVID-19 nucleic acid tests of pharyngeal swab were negative on the 4 th and 6 th day after operation. Chest CT on the 5 th day after delivery showed inflammation in the lower lobe of the right lung, and reexamination on the 8 th day showed a slight absorption of the inflammation. Samples of peripheral blood and pharynx swab were obtained from the newborn on the day of birth and four and seven days after birth and novel coronavirus nucleic acid test were all negative. The mother and baby dyad were discharged nine days after operation. And novel coronavirus nucleic acid tests were all negative in all medical staff involved.

Objective:To explore the relationship between the level of C-reactive protein/serum albumin ratio (CAR) and early postoperative anastomotic leakage in patients with colorectal cancer.Methods:From September 2016 to September 2019, all colorectal cancer patients who were treated in gastrointestinal surgery of Jinjiang hospital in Fujian Province were collected for retrospective analysis. The baseline data of the patients were collected. The blood C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT) and serum albumin (ALB) were monitored on the first, third, fifth and seventh days after operation, and the results were statistically analyzed.Results:There was no significant difference in baseline data such as age, body mass index (BMI), operation time and intraoperative hemorrhage between the anastomotic leakage group and the non anastomotic leakage group ( P>0.05), but the hospitalization time of the anastomotic leakage group was longer than that of the non anastomotic leakage group ( P<0.05). The CRP level on the 3rd and PCT level on the 5th day after operation in the anastomotic leakage group were higher than those in the non anastomotic leakage group, with significant difference ( P<0.05). The CAR value on the 3rd and 5th day after operation in the anastomotic leakage group was higher than those in the non anastomotic leakage group with significant difference ( P<0.05). Conclusions:CAR can predict early anastomotic leakage in patients with colorectal cancer.
