Objective:To explore the current status of surgery for portal hypertension to grasp current status and future development of surgery in China.Methods:This study is jointly sponsored by China Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Specialist Alliance & Portal Hypertension Alliance in China (CHESS).Comprehensive surveying is conducted for basic domestic situations of surgery for portal hypertension, including case load, surgical approaches, management of postoperative complications, primary effects, existing confusion and obstacles, liver transplantation(LT), laparoscopic procedures and transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt(TIPS), etc.Results:A total of 8 512 cases of portal hypertension surgery are performed at 378 hospitals nationwide in 2021.Splenectomy plus devascularization predominated(53.0%)and laparoscopy accounted for 76.1%.Primary goal is preventing rebleeding(67.0%) and 72.8% of hospitals used preventive anticoagulants after conventional surgery.And 80.7% of teams believe that the formation of postoperative portal vein thrombosis is a surgical dilemma and 65.3% of hospitals practiced both laparoscopy and TIPS.The major reasons for patients with portal hypertension not receiving LT are due to a lack of qualifications for LT(69.3%)and economic factors(69.0%).Conclusions:Surgery is an integral part of management of portal hypertension in China.However, it is imperative to further standardize the grasp of surgical indications, the handling of surgical operation and the management of postoperative complications.Moreover, prospective, multi-center randomized controlled clinical studies should be performed.

Objective:To investigate the effects and mechanism of cystostomy on young rats′ bladders function.Methods:Eighty female SD rats were divided into cystostomy group, sham operation group (the two groups included day 1, 3, 5 after operation), control group(it included day 1, 3, 5 after operation) and medicine intervention group by using random number table, there were 8 rats in each group.Cystometry was conducted in cystostomy group (day 1, 3, and 5 postoperative subgroup), and voided interval (VI), voided volume (VV), postvoid residual urine (PVR), bladder capacity (BC), maximum bladder pressure (Pves.max), bladder threshold pressure (Pves.thr), and bladder compliance(△C) were recorded.The rats in sham operation and control groups voided freely in the condition of diuresis by intravenous infusion saline, and VV, PVR and BC were recorded.Bladders′ tissues were collected for HE staining and histopathological inflammation scores (HIS) after urodynamic investigations.In medicine intervention group, different doses of anisodamine were applied and the changes of VI, VV, PVR, BC, Pves.max and Pves.thr were observed.Results:The trend of VV, VI, BC and △C was upwards on days 1, 3, and 5 postcystostomy.Meanwhile, compared with control group [VV: (1.408±0.033) mL, BC: (1.411±0.032) mL], VV and BC on day 1 and 3 postcystostomy were less[VV: (0.288±0.059) mL, (0.598±0.154) mL; BC: (0.292±0.059) mL, (0.601±0.154) mL]. There were statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). However, VV, PVR and BC on day 5 postcystostomy were not different from that of control group(all P>0.05). HE staining demonstrated that the HIS of days 1 and 3 postcystostomy and day 1 post-sham operation were in severe inflammatory phase, with HIS >4 scores.Additionally, the inflammation on day 5 in cystostomy group and days 3-5 in sham operation group were mild (HIS<2 scores). The correlation test of BC and HIS was negative( r=-0.880, P<0.001). After the application of anisodamine on dose of 0.2 mg/kg, VI, VV and BC of the young rats on day 3 postcystostomy significantly increased, compared with those before intervention [(643.500±65.889) s, (1.073±0.110) mL, (1.076±0.110) mL vs.(367.938±77.697) s, (0.612±0.129) mL, (0.617±0.129) mL, all P<0.05], while PVR, Pves.max and Pves.thr did not significantly change compared with those before intervention. Conclusion:The recent abnormal changes of urodynamics postcystostomy were related to the traumatic acute bladder inflammation in the young rats.On day 5 after the surgery, the bladder function basically returned to normal with the regression of the acute bladder inflammation.Anisodamine at 0.2 mg/kg dose could effectively relieve the symptoms of overactive bladder postcystostomy.

OBJECTIVE：To evaluate the benefit and risk of tirofiban in the treatment of acute coronary syndrome （ACS），and to provide evidence-based reference for clinical drug selection and decision. METHODS ：Retrieved from domestic and foreign database as PubMed ，the Cochrane Library ，CNKI and Wanfang database ，during the establishment of database to Apr. 2020，two researcher independently screened the literature based on inclusion and exclusion criteria and extracted the data. After the quality evaluation of the included literatures ，based on rapid health technology assessment ，the extracted results were classifiedly evaluated and comprehensively analyzed. RESULTS ：A total of 13 researches of systematic review/Meta-analysis and 1 research of pharmacoeconomics were included. Compared with placebo ，tirofiban could significantly reduce all-cause mortality [OR ＝0.68， 95％CI（0.54，0.86），P＝0.000 1] and the incidence of major adverse cardiac events （MACE）in patients with ACS [RR ＝0.24， 95％CI（0.14，0.40），P＜0.01]，and increased the incidence of TIMI 3 [OR＝5.73，95％CI（2.99.10.97），P＜0.01]. Tirofiban and eptifibatide had similar therapeutic efficacy in the treatment of ACS ，but tirofiban significantly increased the risk of TIMI small bleeding in patients with ACS [RR ＝0.61，95％CI（0.38，0.98），P＝0.04]. For ACS patients with non-ST elevation （NSTE-ACS）， compared with placbo ，tirofiban significantly reduced the incidence of MACE [RR ＝0.76，95％ CI（0.61，0.96），P＝0.018]，but significantly increased the risk of bleeding [OR ＝1.49，95％CI（1.12，1.98），P＝0.006]，while there was no significant difference in its effects on the all-cause mortality of NSTE-ACS patients （P＞0.05）. For STEMI patients ，compared with placebo ，tirofiban significantly reduced the all-cause mortality [RR＝0.61，95％CI（0.35，1.05），P＝0.007] and the incidence of MACE [RR ＝0.63，95％ CI（0.44，0.90），P＝0.007]. When combined with liposuction ，tirofiban also significantly reduced the incidence of MACE [RR ＝ 2.05，95％CI（1.71，2.46），P＜0.01]，and significantly increased the incidence of TIMI 3 [OR＝3.18，95％ CI（2.4，4.22），P＜ 0.01]，but there was no significant difference in its effects on bleeding risk （P＞0.05）. The included pharmacoeconomic study showed that patients treated with bivalutine could get 10.07 QALYs，patients treated with heparin combined with tirofiban could get 9.98 QALYs，and the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio bivalutine compared to the latter one was 28 575.77 yuan/QALYs，which was lower than 3 times of the per capita GDP of some cities. CONCLUSIONS ：Tirofiban has good efficacy in the treatment of ACS，but it can increase the risk of bleeding than eptifibatide and placebo. Domestic bivalirudin treating for ACS has a cost-effectiveness advantage over tirofiban combined with heparin.

Males typically have high rates of morbidity of primary bladder neck obstruction, while the existing urodynamic examination is invasive and more likely to cause false diagnosis. To build a non-invasive biomechanical detecting system for the male lower urinary tract, a finite element model for male lower urinary tract based on the collodion slice images of normal male lower urinary tract was constructed, and the fluid-structure interaction of the lower urinary tract was simulated based on the real urination environment. The finite element model of the lower urinary tract was validated by comparing the clinical experiment data with the simulation result. The stress, flow rate and deformation of the lower urinary tract were analyzed, and the results showed that the Von Mises stress and the wall shear stress at the membrane sphincter in the normal male lower urinary tract model reached a peak, and there was nearly 1 s delay than in the bladder pressure, which helped to validate the model. This paper lays a foundation for further research on the urodynamic response mechanism of the bladder pressure and flow rate of the lower urinary tract obstruction model, which can provide a theoretical basis for the research of non-invasive biomechanical detecting system.

Objective: To investigate the clinical application of repairing the large-area skin defect of legs with medial-lower-leg-flap with a healthy limb cross-leg bridging thoracic umbilical flap. Methods: 16 cases with a large area of soft tissue defects caused by severe trauma were included in this study. The vascular pedicles of free thoracic umbilical flap were anastomosed with the opposite posterior tibial artery and vein, and the pedicle skin tubes were made and amputated 4 weeks after surgery.Observation of postoperative flap include survival situation, shape, color, elastic, scar contracture, and dysfunction. Results: 16 cases of postoperative all flaps survived.In 1 case pain occurred 10 hours after the operation and led to arterial crisis, which was relieved with analgesia.There were no vascular crisis in other 15 eases. Followed up for 2-24 months, all the flaps survived with good color, elasticity and sensory recovery. There was no apparent stiffness in double knee and ankle joint. Conclusions For the injured limbs impossible to be repaired with local vascular pedicle, routine local transfer of skin flap or cross leg skin flap, the bridge cross anastomosis of free flap graft may be an ideal surgical treatment.

Objective To conduct a systematic review to evaluate efficacy and safety of bladder neck preservation techniques during radical prostatectomy.Methods We searched PubMed,Embase,Medline,Central (the Cochrane Library,Issue 1,2013),CNKI,CBM from the inception to July 2015 for randomized or observational studies assessing the influence of preservation of bladder neck on the continence recovery and cancer control outcomes after radical prostatectomy.Two researchers evaluated the quality of included studies.A meta-analysis was conducted using Review Manager 5.0 software.Results Twelve observational and two randomized studies were analyzed.BNP group had a faster recovery of early continence than non-BNP group at 1 month[OR =2.88,95％ CI 1.80-4.60,P ＜ 0.05],3-4 months [OR =2.32,95％ CI 1.42-3.80,P ＜ 0.05].However there was no statistically significant difference in terms of continence rate at 6 months [OR =1.49,95％ CI 0.97-2.29,P =0.07] and 12 months [OR =0.99,95％ CI 0.70-1.39,P =0.93] among two groups.There was no significant difference in terms of PSM rate [OR =0.92,95 ％ CI 0.71-1.19,P =0.52] between BNP and non-BNP groups.Conclusions We found that preservation of the bladder neck result in earlier return of urinary continence without adversely affecting cancer control.

Objective To approach the design and clinical application of large anterolateral thigh flap and its effect in wound repair.Methods The flaps were designed according to the anatomical features of perforating branches in the anterolateral thigh flaps.When a flap was chipped,a thick branch or a terminal branch of original vessel was reserved,another suitable perforating branch was selected in the proximal or distal end of the flap,and then the two vessels were anastomosed to enlarge the range of blood supply.If the vessel pedicle of a flap was a musculocutaneous perforating branch,the perforating branch of anastomosis was cut at out-point of muscle.If the vessel pedicle of a flap was a intermusclar branch or a direct skin artery,the perforating branch of anastomosis was cut widely.From May 2006 to May 2012,the technique was applied in 28 patients with large skin defect of limbs.The diameters of perforating branches obtained at out-point of muscles were measured during surgery.The survival of flaps was observed after surgery and complications in donor sites were checked during follow-ups.Results There were 18 flaps whose vessel pedicle were musculocutaneous perforating branches.The branches were cut at outpoint of muscles.The diameters of these vessels were measured during surgery.They ranged from 1.3 mm to 1.8 mm with an average of 1.45 mm.All of the vessels could be anastomosed.All 28 flaps survived.All flaps survived.The areas of the flaps ranged from 22 cm × 15 cm to 42 cm × 14 cm.Artery crisis happened in 2 flaps whose vessel pedicle were musculocutaneous perforating branches.The second look operation found that the areas of artery anastomosis of perforating branches and vessel pedicles were compressed by hematoma and thrombus formed.The 2 flaps survived after the hematoma was cleared away and the vessels were reanastomosed.There were no infections.Both the donor and recipient site healed by first intention with no necrosis of flap margin.All 28 patients were followed up by 4-13 months with an average of 8 months.There were no apparent collapse deformities,muscle necrosis,declines of muscle strength and muscle hernia in the donor sites.The appearance of flaps was flat,the color was close to normal and the quality was fine.Conclusion It is a safe and effective method to repair wound surface by large anaterolateral thigh flap obtained by the modus operandi of perforating branch anastomosis.

OBJECTIVE: To assess hearing effect of ossicular chain reconstruction with titanium ossicular replacement prosthesis during mastoidectomy with synchronous ossiculoplasty in chronic middle ear disease. METHOD: Retrospective reviews were performed for 139 patients who had underwent mastoidectomy and tympanoplasty with titanium ossicular replacement prostheses at the same time between 2008 and 2011. The partial ossicular replacement prostheses (PORP) were used in 91 patients and the total ossicular replacement prostheses (TORP) were used in 48 patients respectively. All patients had follow-up for 2 to 5 years. The preoperative and postoperative mean air conduction and air-bone gaps(ABG) for the four frequencies (0.5, 1.0, 2.0 and 4.0 kHz) were evaluated. The improvement of mean air conduction and ABG over the same frequencies were measured. A postoperative ABG less than or equal to 20 dB was considered a successful operation. The hearing results of titanium PORP and TORP were compared. RESULT: The mean air conductions were (53.97 +/- 11.32)dB and (36.80 +/- 11.68) dB preoperatively and postoperatively in PORP group. The mean improvement in air conduction was (17.17 +/- 5.79)dB. The mean ABG was (31.84 +/- 6.17)dB and (15.13 +/- 7.22)dB preoperatively and postoperatively in PORP group. The mean improvement in ABG was (17.71 +/- 5.5)dB. The difference of hearing threshold between preoperative and postoperative had statistical significance (P < 0.01). The mean air conduction were (58.05 +/- 11.35)dB and (44.53 +/- 13.15)dB preoperatively and postoperatively in TORP group. The mean improvement in air conduction was (13.52 +/- 7.81)dB. The mean ABG; were (35.67 +/- 5.73)dB and (21.48 +/- 7.01)dB preoperatively and postoperatively for TORP group. The mean improvement of hearing threshold in ABG was (14.18 +/- 7.53)dB. The difference of hearing threshold between preoperative and postoperative had statistical significance (P < 0.01). ABG less than 20 dB after operationwas happened in 68.63% of the patients (74.73% for PORP and 54.17% for TORP). There was statistically significant difference between PORP and TORP (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION We conclude that titanium ossicular reconstruction during mastoidectomy with synchronous ossiculoplasty give stable and excellent hearing results. We obtained better results with PORP than with TORP.
