Objective To explore the risk factors and possible preventive measures of delayed postoperative intestinal paralysis(PPOI)in elderly(aged ≥75 years)patients with colorectal cancer.Methods This retrospective study included 333 patients with CRC who underwent laporascopic resection in General Department of Beijing Chaoyang Hospital from June 2016 to August 2023.There were 126 patients were enrolled in PPOI group and 207 patients were enrolled in non-PPOI group.The perioperative clinical characteristics of the patients were compared between PPOI group and non-PPOI group,and the risk factors of PPOI and potential preventive measures for them were investigated usingLogisticregression.Results The incidence of PPOI after laparoscopic surgery in elderly patients with colorectal cancer was 37.84％.The ages of the PPOI group and the non-PPOI group were(82.60±3.587)years and(80.38±3.847)years respectively.The rates of primary enterostomy during the operation were 20.63％and 9.66％,respectively,and the preoperative combined nutritional risks were 53.97％and 20.77％,respectively.The preoperative serum albumin levels were lower,which were(35.32±3.77)g/L and(38.36±3.91)g/L,respectively,and the preoperative hemoglobin levels were(104.47±20.31)g/L and(110.33±20.27)g/L,respectively.The intraoperative blood loss was(140.48±130.65)mland(98.26±56.45)ml,respectively.The patients who received enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)measures during the perioperative period were 14.29％and 75.85％,respectively.There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups(P＜0.05).The Logistic analysis showed that the risk factors for elderly patients with PPOI including increased age,preoperative nutritional risk,low preoperative albumin,increased intraoperative blood loss.Moreover,the implementation of ERAS protocols including preoperative nutritional support,multimodal low-opioid anesthesia,gastric tube removal and ground activity early after surgery may be the protective factors of PPOI.Conclusion The risk factors of PPOI for colorectal patients older than 75 years including increased age,preoperative nutritional risk,low preoperative albumin,increased intraoperative blood loss.The ERAS protocols including preoperative nutritional support,multimodal low-opioid anesthesia,gastric tube removal and ground activity early after surgery may be useful to prevent the occurrence of PPOI for elderly patients with colorectal cancer.

Objective:To explore the latent trajectory class of perioperative pain catastrophizing in patients undergoing lumbar internal fixation surgery and analyze the influencing factors of these latent classes.Methods:A total of 180 patients who underwent lumbar internal fixation surgery at Xinxiang Central Hospital from January to December 2023 were selected using convenience sampling. The Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS) was used to assess pain catastrophizing at 1 day preoperatively and on postoperative days 3, 7, and 14. Latent Class Growth Modeling (LCGM) was employed to identify trajectory classes of pain catastrophizing, and Logistic regression analysis was used to examine their influencing factors.Results:A total of 177 patients completed the follow-up, with a follow-up rate of 98.33% (177/180) . The overall perioperative PCS score was (30.39±10.86) . PCS scores at 1 day preoperatively and on postoperative days 3, 7, and 14 were (37.63±6.23) , (33.27±6.00) , (28.55±9.02) , and (23.81±9.33) , respectively. The proportions of patients with PCS≥38 at the four times were 42.94% (76/177) , 23.16% (41/177) , 22.60% (40/177) , and 12.43% (22/177) , respectively. LCGM identified three latent trajectory classes of perioperative pain catastrophizing: "high-level declining group" (55.93%, 99/177) , "high-level fluctuating group" (28.81%, 51/177) , and "persistent high-level group" (15.25%, 27/177) . Logistic regression analysis showed that payment method, surgical duration, and preoperative PCS score were significant influencing factors of pain catastrophizing trajectory classes ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Pain catastrophizing levels in patients undergoing lumbar internal fixation surgery peaked preoperatively. While most patients showed a declining trend postoperatively, a subset exhibited fluctuating or persistently high levels. Payment method, surgical duration, and preoperative pain catastrophizing levels significantly influenced the trajectory of pain catastrophizing, warranting attention from clinical nursing staff.

Objective To explore the impact of transpedicular screw fixation on bone metabolism and clinical effi-cacy in thoracolumbar fractures.Methods Totally 77 patients with thoracolumbar fractures(T11-L2)treated at the Spinal Surgery Department of Xinxiang Central Hospital from December 2020 to June 2022 were selected as sub-jects.According to different surgical screw placement methods,the patients were divided into the cross-pedicle screw group(group A,n=41)and the transpedicular screw group(group B,n=36).The two groups were com-pared for surgical indicators(operation time,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative drainage volume,hospital stay),hematological indicators[serum alkaline phosphatase(ALP),serum bone glaprotein(BGP)],radiological indicators(anterior vertebral height ratio,correction rate of vertebral Cobb angle),and clinical efficacy indicators(Oswestry Disability Index ODI score,lumbar spine JOA score).Results The operation time of group A was longer than that of group B(P＜0.05).There was no significant differences in intra-operative blood loss,post-operative drainage volume,and hospital stay between the two groups(P＞0.05).At 3 days after surgery,the hematological indicators of both groups were higher than those of before surgery and the data of group A were higher than those of group B(P＜0.05).At 3 months after surgery,the hematological indicators of Group B were higher than those be-fore surgery and those of group A(P＜0.05).The anterior vertebral height ratio of both groups were better than those before surgery at 3 days,3 months,and 1 year after surgery(P＜0.05).At 1 year after surgery,the anterior vertebral height ratio and Cobb angle correction rate of group A were better than those of group B(P＜0.05).The clinical efficacy indicators of both groups were better than those before surgery at 3 days,3 months,and 1 year after surgery(P＜0.05).At one year after surgery,the clinical efficacy indicators of group A were better than those of group B,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusions In the treatment of thoracolum-bar fractures,compared with the cross-pedicle screw fixation method,the transpedicular screw fixation method has an early stimulating effect on bone metabolism indicators,speeds up healing of fractures and has more advantages in maintaining spinal correction and improving spinal function.

Objective:To explore the clinical effects of free anterolateral thigh perforator flaps in repairing diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) under a multi-disciplinary team (MDT) cooperation model.Methods:The study was a retrospective observational study. From June 2018 to December 2022, 49 DFU patients who met the inclusion criteria were admitted to the Department of Hand and Foot Microscopy and Wound Repair Surgery of Henan Provincial People's Hospital (People's Hospital of Zhengzhou University), including 28 males and 21 females, aged from 47 to 68 years, with type 2 diabetes history period ranging from 6 months to 21 years. Under a MDT cooperation model, the physicians from department of endocrinology comprehensively assessed the patients, stabilized the patients' general condition, and controlled their complications, the surgeons from department of vascular surgery assessed and improved the patients' lower limb blood supply, the physicians from department of infectious diseases provided anti-infection treatment plans, the physicians from department of anesthesiology and perioperative medicine assessed the patients' perioperative risk and ensured their perioperative safety, and according to the patients' condition, the physicians from departments such as cardiology, neurology, nutrition, and rehabilitation actively and timely participated in the treatment. The surgeons from department of hand and foot microscopy and wound repair surgery prepared the wound base and used free anterolateral thigh perforator flaps to repair the wounds. After once or multiple debridement in the first stage, the wound area ranged from 5.0 cm×4.5 cm to 17.0 cm×10.0 cm. After once or twice vacuum sealing drainage treatment, the free anterolateral thigh perforator flaps were used to repair the wounds with incision area of 6 cm×5 cm to 18 cm×11 cm in the second stage. The descending branches of lateral circumflex femoral artery and the accompanying veins of flaps were anastomosed to the arteries and veins in the recipient sites, respectively. The wounds in the flap donor sites were sutured directly. After surgery, whether the patient's perioperative period was stable, the survival of flaps, the healing of wounds in the flap donor and recipient sites were observed. During the follow-up, the texture and appearance of flaps, whether there was a new ulcer, and the patient's walking ability were observed.Results:All the patients had stable perioperative period. Among them, the flaps in 46 patients survived successfully; the flaps in 2 patients developed complete necrosis, including 1 case whose ulcer was healed after repair of pedicled flap from the lower leg, and 1 case who underwent amputation of the lower leg; the flap in 1 patient developed partial necrosis, which was healed after dressing change and skin grafting. The wounds in the flap donor and recipient sites healed well. During the postoperative follow-up of 6-24 months, the flaps had good texture and appearance with no new ulcers, and the patients had no obvious impairment in daily walk.Conclusions:The MDT cooperation model can sufficiently ensure the perioperative safety of DFU patients. The free anterolateral thigh perforator flaps can repair the DFU wounds achieving good clinical effects with high flap survival rate and decreased amputation rate.

Objective To evaluate the influence of routine lateral release to the clinical outcomes after total knee arthroplasty without patellar resurfacing.Methods The study involved all patients divided into two groups using a randomised group method.During total knee arthroplasty(TKA),forty-three patients were treated with lateral release in the treatment group,while Forty-two patients in the control group were not treated with lateral release.Both groups were assessed for anterior knee pain,patient satisfaction,Knee Surgery Society(KSS)score,KSS function score,patella score,and incidence of postoperative complications.Results After 24 months of follow-up,the treatment group was found to have a lower incidence of anterior knee pain compared to the control group(P<0.05),and there were no statistically significant differences in postoperative satisfaction,complication rate,KSS knee score,KSS function score,and patella score between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion The study suggests that routine lateral release can reduce anterior knee pain and does not increase the risk of postoperative complications after total knee arthroplasty without patellar resurfacing.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of modified Atkins diet (MAD) in treating global growth retardation (GDD).Methods:A prospective multicenter clinical controlled study was conducted.The children were included from 8 departments of children′s rehabilitation in Henan Province from July 2017 to October 2017.A total of 154 children who met the inclusion criteria were randomly assigned into the routine treatment group (88 cases) and MAD therapy group (66 cases). A total of 62 children in MAD therapy group and 59 children in routine treatment group completed the study for 15 months.The routine treatment group was provided comprehensive rehabilitation training, and the MAD therapy group was given MAD treatment on the basis of rehabilitation training.Two-way repeated-measures ANOVA was used to compare the differences among datas at different time points. Results:After 3 months, there were significant differences in the scores of the Chinese Version of Urban Infant-Toddler Social and Emotional Assessment (CITSEA)/Achenbach Children′s Behavior Scale (CBCL) between the 2 groups (all P<0.05). Significant improvement was seen in the MAD group.After 6 months, the MAD therapy group had significantly higher scores on the Gesell Developmental Scale for language and social behavior than the routine treatment group (all P<0.05). After 9 months, the scores of the children in the MAD therapy group were better than those in the routine treatment group in the Gesell Developmental Scale adaptive energy area and the infant-junior high school student social life scale (S-M scale), and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). After 15 months, the fine motor in the MAD therapy group was better than that in the routine treatment group ( P<0.05). At the early stage of MAD therapy, 28 patients showed mild adverse reactions that were reversed after symptomatic treatment.No severe adverse reactions were observed. Conclusions:MAD therapy can improve the neuro-development, emotional and social behaviors, and adaptive behaviors with no severe adverse effects.

Objective:To investigate the consistency and correlation of the respiratory synchronization tracking and fiducial marker respiratory synchronization tracking in the Cyberknife stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) with the diaphragm as the tracking target.Methods:A total of 11 patients hospitalized at Union Hospital Affiliated to Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology from April 2018 to November 2019 were enrolled, including 8 cases of lung cancer, 2 cases of liver cancer with lung metastasis and 1 case of colorectal cancer with lung metastasis. All enrolled cases used fiducial marker tracking plan (RT) and diaphragm contour tracking plan (DT), and then all received tumor visualization simulation tests. Bland-Altman method was used to make the consistency analysis of the offset in the visualization tests process of 2 tracking plans at each respiratory time point. The minimum tolerance distance, uncertainty and average standard deviation and maximum standard deviation in the optimal model state plans were compared between the both plans by using t test. Results:Compared with RT, the translational standard deviations of DT tracking were listed as follows: head-foot direction (0.4±2.9) mm, left-right direction (0.3±4.4) mm, anterior-posterior direction (-1.8±6.8) mm. The Bland-Altman method showed that the consistency between RT and DT was better in the head-foot and left-right directions, and worse in the anterior-posterior direction; the synchronization was only better in the head-foot direction, and worse in both the left-right and anterior-posterior directions. Results of the model quality comparison showed that the uncertainty of RT was higher than that of DT, and the difference was statistically significant [(23±6)% vs. (9±4)%, t=-5.24, P = 0.001], while the differences of the minimum tolerance distance, average standard deviation and maximum standard deviation were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Patients who use respiratory synchronization Cyberknife SBRT with the diaphragm as the tracking target have better consistency and synchronization in the head-foot direction, but worse in the left-right and anterior-posterior directions. Under the corresponding marginal margin of the target area in the left-right direction, for tumors near the diaphragm that are not visible in the visual test, it is potentially feasible to use the diaphragm as a tracking target to implement respiratory synchronization SBRT. For larger motion amplitudes in the left-right and anterior-posterior directions, more caution is required.

Objective:To establish a multilocus sequence typing (MLST) assay for Corynebacterium ( C.) striatum, explore the population structure and evolution relationship of clinical isolates of C. striatum. Methods:Seven housekeeping genes ( gyrA, gyrB, hsp65, sodA, secA1, rpoB, 16S rRNA) were amplified with PCR by using self-designed specific primers and sequenced. Then, the sequences were assembled with software SeqMan. The gene diversity and gene recombination characteristics were evaluated by using software DnaSP 5.10.01 and Splits tree 4.14.2. The phylogenetic tree and the minimum spanning tree were constructed based on the sequence types (ST) characteristics by using software MEGA 7.0.14 and BioNumerics, respectively. In addition, the genetic evolutionary relationship among STs were analyzed by using software eBURST 3.0. Results:The expected amplification products of seven sites selected in all the test strains were obtained. Splits tree showed that the clustering of all C. striatum strains was consistent, suggesting that gene recombination is the potential driving force for the evolution of C. striatum. All of the 344 C.striatum strains were divided into 72 STs by MLST and 85.7% of the strains formed clonal complexes. CC19 was the predominant clonal complex, whereas ST16 in the clonal complex was detected in the most strains. ST had a certain geographic clustering and a certain correlation with the isolation time. Conclusions:C. striatum showed high genetic diversity in China and CC19 was the predominant clonal complex. The MLST assay established in this study can be used for the typing of C. striatum, but further improvement is needed.
