Objective:To investigate the value of transanal multipoint full-layer puncture biopsy (TMFP) in predicting pathological complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy (nCRT) in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) and to establish a predictive model for providing clinical guidance regarding the treatment of LARC.Methods:In this multicenter, prospective, cohort study, we collected data on 110 LARC patients from four hospitals between April 2020 and March 2023: Beijing Chaoyang Hospital of Capital Medical University (50 patients), Beijing Friendship Hospital of Capital Medical University (41 patients), Qilu Hospital of Shandong University (16 patients), and Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University (three patients). The patients had all received TMFP after completing standard nCRT. The variables studied included (1) clinicopathological characteristics; (2) clinical complete remission (cCR) and efficacy of TMFP in determining pCR after NCRT in LARC patients; and (3) hospital attended, sex, age, clinical T- and N-stages, distance between the lower margin of the tumor and the anal verge, baseline and post-radiotherapy serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and carbohydrate antigen (CA)19-9 concentrations, chemotherapy regimen, use of immunosuppressants with or without radiotherapy, radiation therapy dosage, interval between surgery and radiotherapy, surgical procedure, clinical T/N stage after radiotherapy, cCR, pathological results of TMFP, puncture method (endoscopic or percutaneous), and number and timing of punctures. Single-factor and multifactorial logistic regression analysis were used to determine the factors affecting pCR after NCRT in LARC patients. A prediction model was constructed based on the results of multivariat analysis and the performance of this model evaluated by analyzing subject work characteristics (ROC), calibration, and clinical decision-making (DCA) curves. pCR was defined as complete absence of tumor cells on microscopic examination of the surgical specimens of rectal cancer (including lymph node dissection) after NCRT, that is, ypT0+N0. cCR was defined according to the Chinese Neoadjuvant Rectal Cancer Waiting Watch Database Study Collaborative Group criteria after treatment, which specify an absence of ulceration and nodules on endoscopy; negative rectal palpation; no tumor signals on rectal MRI T2 and DWI sequences; normal serum CEA concentrations, and no evidence of recurrence on pelvic computed tomography/magnetic resonance imaging.Results:Of the 110 patients, 45 (40.9%) achieved pCR after nCRT, which was combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors in 34 (30.9%). cCR was diagnosed before puncture in 38 (34.5%) patients, 43 (39.1%) of the punctures being endoscopic. There were no complications of puncture such as enterocutaneous fistulae, vaginal injury, prostatic injury, or presacral bleeding . Only one (2.3%) patient had a small amount of blood in the stools, which was relieved by anal pressure. cCR had a sensitivity of 57.8% (26/45) for determining pCR, specificity of 81.5% (53/65), accuracy of 71.8% (79/110), positive predictive value 68.4% (26/38), and negative predictive value of 73.6% (53/72). In contrast, the sensitivity of TMFP pathology in determining pCR was 100% (45/45), specificity 66.2% (43/65), accuracy 80.0% (88/110), positive predictive value 67.2% (45/67), and negative predictive value 100.0% (43/43). In this study, the sensitivity of TMFP for pCR (100.0% vs. 57.8%, χ 2=24.09, P<0.001) was significantly higher than that for cCR. However, the accuracy of pCR did not differ significantly (80.0% vs. 71.8%, χ 2=2.01, P=0.156). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that a ≥4 cm distance between the lower edge of the tumor and the anal verge (OR=7.84, 95%CI: 1.48-41.45, P=0.015), non-cCR (OR=4.81, 95%CI: 1.39-16.69, P=0.013), and pathological diagnosis by TMFP (OR=114.29, the 95%CI: 11.07-1180.28, P<0.001) were risk factors for pCR after NCRT in LARC patients. Additionally, endoscopic puncture (OR=0.02, 95%CI: 0.05-0.77, P=0.020) was a protective factor for pCR after NCRT in LARC patients. The area under the ROC curve of the established prediction model was 0.934 (95%CI: 0.892-0.977), suggesting that the model has good discrimination. The calibration curve was relatively close to the ideal 45° reference line, indicating that the predicted values of the model were in good agreement with the actual values. A decision-making curve showed that the model had a good net clinical benefit. Conclusion:Our predictive model, which incorporates TMFP, has considerable accuracy in predicting pCR after nCRT in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer. This may provide a basis for more precisely selecting individualized therapy.

Objective:To compare the wound healing time, Surgical site infection (SSI) rate and other postoperative outcomes between the gunsight closure and purse-string closure technique in loop stoma closure.Methods:Between November 2013 and December 2017, a total of 143 patients who underwent gunsight stoma reversal were included in this multicenter prospective randomized controlled trial. The patients were randomized to undergo gunsight (gunsight group, n=72) or purse-string closure technique (purse-string group, n=71). The primary endpoint was wound healing time. The second endpoints were the incidence of SSI, morbidity, and patient satisfaction. Statistical analysis between groups was performed using the t-test, repeated measures analysis of variance, Mann-Whitney U test, χ 2 test or Fisher′s exact test. Results:There were 45 males and 27 females with age of 67 (11) (M( Q R)) years in gunsight group, 42 males and 29 females with age of 65 (20) years in purse-string group. The body mass index, American Society of Anesthesiologist classification, comorbidities, primary diagnosis, the type of ostomy, intraoperative blood loss, perioperative complications, postoperative hospital stay, hospitalization cost, SSI rate and incisional hernia (stoma site) between the 2 groups were not significantly different ( P>0.05). Although had a statistically longer operating time (80(10) minutes vs. 70(10) minutes, Z=-2.381, P=0.017), patients who underwent gunsight procedure and a significantly shorter wound healing time (17(2) days vs. 25(4) days, Z=-10.199, P<0.01), higher patient satisfaction score with regards to wound healing time (3(1) vs. 3(1), Z=-4.526, P<0.01), and higher total patient satisfaction score (25(3) vs. 25(3), Z=-2.529, P=0.011) compared with those who underwent purse-string procedure. Conclusions:The gunsight and purse-string techniques are effective procedures for stoma reversal and both have low SSI rate. The gunsight technique is associated with shorter wound healing time, higher levels of patient satisfaction compared with purse-string technique, and is recommended as the closure technique of choice.

Objective To evaluate the clinical use of delayed open reduction and internal fixation technique in the treatment of Rud?i Ⅲ Pilon fractures. Methods From May 1997 to June 2003, 38 patients with Rud?i Ⅲ Pilon fractures underwent immediate calcaneal traction as well as treatment with methylprednisolone and mannitol. After 5-8 days, all patients underwent regular open reduction and internal fixation with cloverleaf buttress plates. One week after the operation, ankle joint began to exercise with no weight bearing. Results All patients were followed up for average 18 months and evaluated subjectively and objectively by using systems of Teeny and Wiss, which showed good results for 74 %, mild for 21% and poor for 5%. All fractures healed within an average of 5.7 months except for two cases of infections and one soft tissue complication. Conclusion Delayed open reduction and internal fixation offers acceptable way for treatment of severe Pilon fractures.

Methods Retrospective study was carried out in 12 cases that had received extended tibia tubercle osteotomy in Zhongshan Hospital from May 1998 to October 2002. Results After osteotomy, all knees were healed clinically and radiologically at 6th month postoperatively. Average range of joint motion increased from 79 degrees to 95 degrees. Average knee score improved from 60 to 85. Conclusion Extended tibia tubercle osteotomy can improve the exposure of operation and knee joint function.

PurposePresent study investigated the role of metal on metal surface replacement of the hip in treating the young patients suffering rheumatoid arthritis or aseptic necrosis of femoral head.Methods Between Jan. 1995 and Dec. 1996.16 patients with 17 hips( rheumatoid arthritis 14, aseptic necrosis of femoral head 3) were resurfaced with hybrid metal on metal surface replacement prothesis. Patients were evaluated by self assessment form,hip function examination. Radiographs and Harris hip score. The average follow up time was 58.2 months. ResultsNo patient received revision. Radiographs showed that all implants were in position satisfyingly. No loosening were revealed. The result of self assessment showed that patients were satisfied with 16 hips. The Harris score rose from preoperative 44(31 - 52) to postoperative 91 (79- 96). ConclusionsThe metal on metal surface replacement of hip is a useful treatment to release pain and keep the hip function of young patients suffering rheumatoid arthritis or aseptic necrosis of femoral head.

Objective To explore the association of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) with pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH).Methods We oligotyped HLA-DQA1, -DQB1 locus of 30 Chinese PIH families and 14 control families in Shanghai area by polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific oligonucleotide (PCR-SSO) hybridization method (probes labeled by nonradioactive technique).Results Compared with the control group, the allelic frequency of HLA-DQB1*0502 was significantly higher in PIH couples, and the sharing of HLA-DQA1 increased in PIH couples as well. No difference was found in HLA-DQA1 allelic frequencies or HLA-DQB1 sharing between the two groups. Analysis of neither HLA-DQA1 nor HLA-DQB1 allelic frequencies in PIH patients and PIH mother-and-fetuses showed positive result.Conclusion HLA-DQB1*0502 may be a marker of susceptibility to PIH. DQB1*0502 itself or some gene(s) located in HLA class Ⅱ region and in linkage disequilibrium with 0502 affect maternal T cell immunity during pregnancy. The increase of compatibility in HLA-D region causes the production of blocking antibody to decrease.
