Objective:To evaluate the short-term and long-term efficacy of Heidelberg triangle dissection in surgical treatment for pancreatic head cancer.Methods:The clinicopathological data of 97 patients with pancreatic head cancer who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy at Cangzhou Central Hospital from Jan 2017 to Jan 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. After propensity score matching, 33 patients were included into the Heidelberg group and 36 patients in the control group.Results:There were no significant difference between Heidelberg group and control group in preoperative general conditions and postoperative major complications, while there were more cases with safe surgical margin > 1 mm (81.8% vs. 58.3%, P=0.034) and a significantly higher total number of lymph node dissection (11.24±2.35 vs. 9.50±2.76, P=0.006). In the survival analysis, the cumulative recurrence rate at 12 months (0.182±0.067 vs. 0.444±0.083, P=0.023) and 18 months (0.424±0.086 vs. 0.667±0.079, P=0.024) were better off in the Heidelberg group, and the local recurrence rate in the Heidelberg group was significantly lower than that in the control group (15.3 % vs. 36.1 %, P=0.037). However, there was no statistical difference in the overall survival time between the two groups. Conclusion:Dissection of Heidelberg triangle in radical resection of pancreatic head cancer reduces tumor local recurrence ,while fails to provide survival benefit.

Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of endoscopic retrograde appendicitis therapy (ERAT) for pediatric acute appendicitis. Methods Thirty-five pediatric patients with acute simple appendicitis admitted between June 2021 and November 2023 were selected as study subjects. Relevant perioperative data including clinical manifestations, diagnostic and therapeutic processes, as well as treatment and follow-up outcomes were collected. Results All 35 patients successfully underwent ERAT with an operation time ranging from 24 to 75 min. Intubation of the appendiceal lumen was successful in all patients, with pus flushed out or stones removed. After contrast administration and flushing, 16 patients were found to have pus only in the appendiceal lumen with no appendicoliths, while 19 patients had both pus and visible appendicoliths with diameters ranging from 2 to 5 mm. Of 19 patients, 17 appendicoliths were loose and 2 were well-formed. Abdominal pain symptoms were alleviated within a short period, with the average VAS score decreasing from 6.6 preoperatively to 1.7 at 3 hours postoperatively and to 0.2 at 24 hours postoperatively. There was a statistically significant difference in Visual Analogue Scale(VAS) scores before and after surgery (P < 0.05). During follow-up ranging from 3 to 11 months postoperatively, appendicitis recurred in one patient one week after ERAT, while no surgery-related complications occurred in the other patients during follow-up. Conclusion ERAT is a safe and effective endoscopic treatment for pediatric acute appendicitis, with advantages including reduced trauma and shorter recovery time. It is particularly suitable for pediatric patients with acute simple appendicitis complicated by appendicoliths, appendiceal lumen stenosis, or intra-appendiceal abscesses.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics and risk factors of local recurrence in resected pancreatic cancer.Methods:The clinicopathological data of 190 patients in whom recurrent sites can be identified after radical resection of pancreatic cancer from Sep 2013 to Aug 2020 at the Cangzhou Central Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. The survival time and clinicopathological characteristics of local recurrence were compared with those of other recurrence types. Cox risk regression model was used to analyze the risk factors of local recurrence.Results:The recurrence sites were local (49 cases, 25.8%), liver (53 cases, 27.9%), lung (35 cases, 18.4%), peritoneal (25 cases, 13.2%) and multiple sites (28 cases, 14.7%). Patients mRFS and mOS were 17.8 months and 30.9 months respectively. The clinicopathological features of patients with local recurrence were compared with those of other recurrence types [tumor diameter ( P=0.023), preoperative CA199 level ( P=0.021), peripancreatic nerve plexus invasion ( P=0.031), lymphovascular invasion ( P=0.004), surgical margin state ( P<0.001) and postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy ( P=0.038)]. Tumor diameter ( P=0.018), peripancreatic nerve plexus invasion ( P=0.002) and postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy ( P=0.004) were independent factors for local recurrence in resected pancreatic cancer, and only peripancreatic nerve plexus invasion was not associated with other recurrence types. Conclusions:Local recurrence in resected pancreatic cancer has important impact on the prognosis of patients. Peripancreatic nerve plexus invasion is an independent factor affecting local recurrence.

Objective:To investigate the short-term outcome of Heidelberg triangle dissection in laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) for pancreatic cancer.Methods:The clinical data of 84 patients with pancreatic head cancer who underwent LPD from July 2015 to September 2020 in the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery of the Cangzhou Central Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. According to the scope of surgical dissection, the patients were divided into the control group ( n=45) and the Heidelberg group ( n=39). In the control group, routine lymph node dissection was performed, and in the Heidelberg group, all blood vessels, lymphatic tissue and nerve tissue in the Heidelberg triangle area were dissected on the basis of routine lymph node dissection. Operation-related indicators (operation duration, intraoperative blood loss, cases of patients with intraoperative blood transfusion, fasting time and hospitalization duration after operation), postoperative complications (pancreatic fistula, biliary fistula, lymphatic fistula, bleeding and delayed gastric emptying) and postoperative pathological parameters (surgical margin, degree of differentiation, tumor size, cases of nerve invasion, number of dissected lymph nodes, lymph node metastasis and TNM stage) were compared between the two groups. Results:Compared with the control group, the operation time of the Heidelberg group was longer [ (334.85±24.95)min vs (305.09±24.54)min], theincidence of lymphatic fistula was higher (15.4% vs 2.2%), the rate of >1 mm at surgical margin was higher (76.9% vs 53.3%), and the total number of lymph nodes dissection was more [ (11.31±2.46) vs (9.49±2.28)]. All the differences between the two groups were statistically significant ( P<0.05). However, there were no significant differences on the intraoperative blood loss, cases of patients with intraoperative blood transfusion, postoperative hospital stay and fasting time, incidence of pancreatic fistula and biliary fistula, bleeding, delayed gastric emptying, degree of differentiation, tumor size, cases of nerve invasion, lymph node metastasis and TNM stage between the two groups. Conclusions:LPD combined with Heidelberg triangle dissection for pancreatic cancer was feasible and safe, which can increase the R 0 resection rate, remove more lymph nodes, reduce the local recurrence of pancreatic cancer and improve the prognosis of patients.

Objective: To evaluate the anti-tumor activity of mouse multi-subtype heat shock protein/peptide (mHSP/P) vaccine in combination with a programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitor in mouse sarcoma. Methods: Immunohistochemical staining and en-zyme-linked immunosorbent assay (Elisa) was used to quantitatively identify the expression of heat shock proteins (HSP70, HSP90, Grp94) in the sarcoma cell line MCA207. From the protein suspension prepared, mHSP/P and Grp94/peptide (Grp94/P) sarcoma vac-cines were isolated using chromatography and were identified by Western blot (WB). Flow cytometry was used to determine their cy-totoxic effects. The levels of interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) produced upon mHSP/P and Grp94/P stimulation were measured by Elisa. The effect of sarcoma vaccines on the growth and survival of sarcoma was evaluated in mice. The expression of PD-L1 on the surface of MCA207 sarcoma cells was evaluated by immunofluorescent staining. The effect of IFN-γ treatment on the expression of PD-L1 was determined by WB. Animal experiments explored the effects of PD-L1 inhibitor in combination with mHSP/P treatment on tumors. Results: Tumor tissue carries a variety of HSP subtypes (HSP70, HSP90, Grp94). We successfully isolated sarco-ma tissue-derived mHSP/P and Grp94/P tumor vaccines, which were identified by WB; flow cytometry analysis demonstrated their cy-totoxicity. The levels of IFN-γ and TNF-α cytokines upon mHSP/P stimulation were significantly higher than that observed upon Grp94/P stimulation (P<0.05). The expression of PD-L1 on the surface of sarcoma cells increased with IFN-γ treatment. Animal experiments demonstrated that PD-L1 inhibitor in combination with mHSP/P significantly increased the immune response against tumor (P<0.05). Conclusions: Tumor-derived mHSP/P and Grp94/P can be used as tumor vaccines in animal models. The mHSP/P can elicit a stronger anti-tumor immune response than Grp94/P. IFN-γ stimulates the expression of PD-L1 in sarcoma cells, which results in immune eva-sion. The PD-L1 inhibitor in combination with mHSP/P increased the anti-tumor effect in the tumor microenvironment.

Objective to investigate the feasibility of laparoscopic radical resection for hilar cholangiocarcinoma.Methods From June 2016 to June 2018,30 patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma (HCC) underwent total laparoscopic radical resection.Results Surgery was successfully performed in all cases without conversion,15 cases underwent hilar bile duct resection,and hilar lymph node dissection,14 cases underwent left hemi-hepatectomy and caudate lobectomy,and 1 case underwent extrahepatic bile duct resection.The operation time was 258-336 min,(286.8 ± 18) min,intraoperative bleeding was 60-210 ml (139.7 ±38.0) ml.Postoperative bile fistula occurred in 5 cases,healed conservatively after 5 days,stress ulcer in 1 case,and intestinal anastomotic bleeding in 1 case,were all cured by themselves.Postoperative hospitalization was 7-12 days (mean 8.9 d).After 6-12 months follow-up,3 cases died of recurrent and metastatic cancer after 6 months of operation,27 cases were alive.Conclusion Total laparoscopic radical resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma is safe and feasible.

Objective To investigate the role of high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) in hepatic endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) in rats with trauma. Methods Sixty SPF Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into groups (n = 6). The rat model of liver injury following traumatic stress was established by continuous compressing the bilateral hind-limbs of rats for 3 hours and then intermittent compressing and decompressing for 30 minutes respectively three times with standard weight of 15 kg. The experiment 1 was divided into two groups: control group and 6, 18, 30 hours after crush. The experiment 2 was divided into control group, crush model group (18 hours after crush), HMGB1 inhibitor sodium butyrate (SB) or ethyl pyruvate (EP) groups, and SB or EP treatment groups (500 mg/kg SB solution or 40 mg/kg EP solution was injected intraperitoneally after 3 hours crush). The levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in serum were measured with automatic biochemistry analyzer. Histopathological severity of liver injury was assessed by hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining. The expressions of HMGB1 and ERS-related proteins were detected with Western Blot. The expression and translocation of HMGB1 in liver tissue were evaluated by immuno-histochemical technique. Results ① Compared with the control group, the pathological changes of liver injury, the levels of AST and ALT in serum and protein expression of HMGB1 as well as ERS-related proteins such as glucose regulated protein 78 (GRP78), caspase-12, and inositol-requiring enzyme 1α (IRE1α) in liver tissue were significantly increased after traumatic stress, and reached the peak at 18 hours. The expression of C/EBP-homologous protein (CHOP) was increased in a time-dependent manner and peaked at 30 hours after crush. Immunohistochemistry showed that HMGB1 expression increased at 6 hours after crush, some HMGB1 shifted from nucleus to cytoplasm, and the expression was more obvious at 18 hours. ② Compared with crush model group, the expressions of HMGB1 and ERS-related proteins were significantly decreased following the administration of HMGB1 inhibitors SB or EP (HMGB1/β-actin: 0.703±0.213, 0.512±0.075 vs. 1.041±0.186; GRP78/β-actin:0.614±0.052, 0.450±0.115 vs. 0.847±0.120; caspase-12/β-actin: 0.636±0.066, 0.812±0.142 vs. 1.086±0.130;CHOP/β-actin: 0.314±0.046, 0.621±0.123 vs. 0.996±0.764; IRE1α/β-actin: 0.473±0.033, 0.519±0.094 vs. 0.742±0.054, all P < 0.05), the levels of serum AST and ALT were significantly decreased [AST (U/L): 1 030.50±427.73, 1 414.50±347.86 vs. 2 122.20±322.76; ALT (U/L): 285.75±11.30, 368.50±80.58 vs. 473.80±33.54, all P < 0.01], the degree of acute liver injury was reduced. Only SB or EP could not affect the parameters mentioned above. Conclusion HMGB1-ERS pathway was involved in mediating traumatic stress-induced acute liver injury in rats.
