Objective:To explore the suitable prostate cancer screening mode under the medical community for primary hospitals.Methods:From April 2021 to April 2022, a total of 16007 male population ≥50 years from 9 branches of the medical community of the second hospital of Yinzhou participated in this study. They were divided into four groups according to age with group 1 of 50-59 years old, group 2 of 60-69 years old, group 3 of 70-79 years old, and group 4 of 80 years old and above. Serum tPSA was added to the routine physical examination, and the screening positive patients were referred to the referral hospital for further diagnosis and treatment under the mode of medical community. We proposed multi-parametric MRI (mpMRI) for those with serum PSA ≥4 ng/ml and suspicious lesions should be scored according to PI-RADS V2. The ultrasound-guided transperineal targeted prostate biopsy was performed for those with PI-RADS ≥3 and those with PI-RADS < 3 but tPSA ≥10 ng/ml. The tPSA follow-up examinations were performed every 6 months for tPSA < 10 ng/ml and PI-RADS < 3 points and once a year for tPSA < 4 ng/ml.Results:Among the 16 007 male population ≥50 years, 2 007(12.54%) were found serum PSA ≥4 ng/ml, and 634(31.59%)were referred to the referral hospital through the medical community system. Combining tPSA and mpMRI, 271 patients underwent ultrasound-guided transperineal targeted prostate biopsy. Among them, 162 were finally diagnosed with PCa, with a biopsy positive rate of 59.78%. The detection rate of PCa in all the subjects was 1.01%. According to the pathological grade, 5(3.08%) were in ISUP group 1, 95(58.64%) in ISUP group 2-3, and 62(38.27%) in ISUP group 4-5. There were 102(62.96%), 39(24.07%) and 21(12.96%) with localized, locally advanced or metastatic PCa, respectively. The levels of tPSA in the four groups were (1.13±1.44)ng/ml, (1.77±3.45)ng/ml, (3.27±17.58)ng/ml, and (4.26±11.48)ng/ml, respectively, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.01). The positive number of biopsy in each group was 1 case(0.06%), 56 cases(0.79%), 81 cases(1.36%) and 24 cases(1.82%) respectively, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.01). The number of ISUP 4-5 grades in each group was 0, 17(30.35%), 29(35.80%), and 16(66.67%) respectively, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.01). Conclusions:Based on the medical community system, according to the tPSA screening results of the primary hospitals, it is feasible and effective to refer suspicious patients to the referral hospitals for mpMRI examination, and screen prostate cancer by ultrasound-guided transperineal prostate fusion biopsy.

Objective:Surgical site infection (SSI) is the most common infectious complication after emergency abdominal surgery (EAS). To a large extent, most SSI can be prevented, but there are few relevant studies in China. This study mainly investigated the current situation of SSI occurrence after EAS in China, and further explored risk factors for SSI occurrence.Methods:Multi-center cross-sectional study was conducted. Clinical data of patients undergoing EAS in 33 hospitals across China between May 1, 2019 and June 7, 2019 were prospectively collected, including perioperative data and microbial culture results from infected incisions. The primary outcome was the incidence of SSI after EAS, while the secondary outcomes were postoperative hospital stay, ICU occupancy rate, length of ICU stay, hospitalization cost, and mortality within postoperative 30 days. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to analyze the risk factors of SSI after EAS.Results:A total of 660 EAS patients aged (47.9±18.3) years were enrolled in this study, including 56.5% of males (373/660). Forty-nine (7.4%) patients developed postoperative SSI. The main pathogen of SSI was Escherichia coli [culture positive rate was 32.7% (16/49)]. As compared to patients without SSI, those with SSI were more likely to be older (median 56 years vs. 46 years, U=19 973.5, P<0.001), male [71.4% (35/49) vs. 56.1% (343/611), χ 2=4.334, P=0.037] and diabetes [14.3% (7/49) vs. 5.1% (31/611), χ 2=5.498, P=0.015]; with-lower preoperative hemoglobin (median: 122.0 g/L vs. 143.5 g/L, U=11 471.5, P=0.006) and albumin (median: 35.5 g/L vs. 40.8 g/L, U=9452.0, P<0.001), with higher blood glucose (median: 6.9 mmol/L vs. 6.0 mmol/L, U=17 754.5, P<0.001); with intestinal obstruction [32.7% (16/49) vs. 9.2% (56/611), χ 2=25.749, P<0.001], with ASA score 3-4 [42.9% (21/49) vs. 13.9% (85/611), χ 2=25.563, P<0.001] and with high surgical risk [49.0% (24/49) vs. 7.0% (43/611), χ 2=105.301, P<0.001]. The main operative procedure resulting in SSI was laparotomy [81.6%(40/49) vs. 35.7%(218/611), χ 2=40.232, P<0.001]. Patients with SSI experienced significantly longer operation time (median: 150 minutes vs. 75 minutes, U=25 183.5, P<0.001). In terms of clinical outcome, higher ICU occupancy rate [51.0% (25/49) vs. 19.5% (119/611), χ 2=26.461, P<0.001], more hospitalization costs (median: 44 000 yuan vs. 15 000 yuan, U=24 660.0, P<0.001), longer postoperative hospital stay (median: 10 days vs. 5 days, U=23 100.0, P<0.001) and longer ICU occupancy time (median: 0 days vs. 0 days, U=19 541.5, P<0.001) were found in the SSI group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the elderly (OR=3.253, 95% CI: 1.178-8.985, P=0.023), colorectal surgery (OR=9.156, 95% CI: 3.655-22.937, P<0.001) and longer operation time (OR=15.912, 95% CI:6.858-36.916, P<0.001) were independent risk factors of SSI, while the laparoscopic surgery (OR=0.288, 95% CI: 0.119-0.694, P=0.006) was an independent protective factor for SSI. Conclusions:For patients undergoing EAS, attention should be paid to middle-aged and elderly patients and those of colorectal surgery. Laparoscopic surgery should be adopted when feasible and the operation time should be minimized, so as to reduce the incidence of SSI and to reduce the burden on patients and medical institutions.

Different centers collected and summarized their data in 2017 and sent back the questionnaires for summary. RESULTS: A total of 8 766 AA patients were enrolled from 43 medical centers, including 4 711 males (53.7%) with median age of 39 years and 958 (10.9%) patients over 65 years old. Of 8 776 patients, 5 677 cases (64.6%) received one or more imaging examinations, and the other 3 099 (35.4%) did not receive any imaging examination. A total of 1 858 (21.2%) cases received medical treatment, mainly a combination of nitroimidazoles (1 107 cases, 59.8%) doublet regimen, followed by a single-agent regimen of non-nitroimidazoles (451 cases, 24.4%), a nitroimidazole-free doublet regimen (134 cases, 7.2%), a triple regimen of combined nitroimidazoles (116 cases, 6.3%), nitroimidazole alone (39 cases, 2.1%) and nitroimidazole-free triple regimen (3 cases, 0.2%). Of the 6 908 patients (78.8%) who underwent surgery, 4 319 (62.5%) underwent laparoscopic appendectomy and 2589 (37.5%) underwent open surgery. Ratio of laparotomy was higher in those patients under 16 years old (392 cases) or over 65 years old (258 cases) [15.1%(392/2 589) and 10.0%(258/2 589), respectively, compared with 8.5%(367/4 316) and 8.0%(347/4 316) in the same age group for laparoscopic surgery, χ²=91.415, P<0.001; χ²=15.915,P<0.001]. Patients with complicated appendicitis had higher ratio of undergoing open surgery as compared to those undergoing laparoscopic surgery [26.7%(692/2 589) vs. 15.6%(672/4 316), χ²=125.726, P<0.001].The cure rates of laparoscopic and open surgery were 100.0% and 99.8%(2 585/2 589) respectively without significant difference (P=0.206). Postoperative complication rates were 4.5%(121/2 589) and 4.7%(196/4 316) respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant (χ²=0.065, P=0.799). The incidence of surgical site infection was lower (0.6% vs. 1.7%, χ²=17.315, P<0.001), and hospital stay was shorter [6(4-7) days vs. 6(5-8) days, U=4 384 348.0, P<0.001] in the laparoscopic surgery group, while hospitalization cost was higher (median 12 527 yuan vs. 9 342 yuan, U=2 586 809.0, P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS The diagnosis of acute appendicitis is still clinically based, supplemented by imaging examination. Appendectomy is still the most effective treatment at present. Laparoscopic appendectomy has become the main treatment strategy, but anti-infective drugs are also very effective.

Objective To study the therapeutic effect of pinaverium bromid and oryz-aspergillus enzyme and pancreatin tablet on patients with bile duct Ⅲ of sphincter of Oddi dysfunction (SOD) after cholecystectomy.Methods 72 patients who had a diagnosis consistent with bile duct Ⅲ of SOD seen from February 2010 to February 2013 in our hospital were randomly divided into the control group and the treatment group.Patients in the control group were given pinaverium bromid for 3 months while patients in the treatment group were,in addition to pinaverium bromid,given oryz-aspergillus enzyme and pancreatin tablet.Relief of abdominal pain,abdominal distention and recurrence of the above symptoms after drug withdrawal were studied.Results The scores on abdominal pain in the treatment group before and after treatment were 7.5 ± 1.1 and 3.0 ± 1.6 (P ＜ 0.05) while the scores in the control group were 7.4 ± 1.1 and 5.0 ± 1.4 (P ＜ 0.05),respectively.Alleviation of abdominal pain in the treatment group was superior to the control group (P ＜ 0.05).The scores on abdominal distention in the treatment group before and after treatment were 5.4 ± 0.6 and 1.6 ± 0.5 (P ＜ 0.05) while the scores in the control group were 5.2 ± 0.5 and 4.7 ± 0.8 (P ＞ 0.05),respectively.Alleviation of abdominal distention in the treatment group was superior to the control group (P ＜0.05).The scores of abdominal pain and distention in half year after 3 months' therapy in the treatment group were 3.1 ± 1.7 and 1.7 ± 1.1,respectively,which obviously were lower than the control group (5.4 ± 1.4 and 5.0 ± 0.6,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Pinaverium bromid and oryz-aspergillus enzyme and pancreatin tablet could effectively alleviate abdominal pain and distention in patients with bile duct Ⅲ of SOD after cholecystectomy and the recurrence rates of symptoms were significantly lower.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of electroacupuncture in treating deglutition disorders after radiotherapy of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Method Forty nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients with deglutition disorders after radiotherapy were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 20 in each group. The control group was intervened by nourishing nerve, improving microcirculation, promoting nerve growth factor, and physical rehabilitation. Based on the treatment given to the control group, the treatment group was additionally intervened by electroacupuncture. Water drinking test was adopted to evaluate the deglutition function before and after intervention, and the clinical efficacy was compared. Result After intervention, there was no significant difference in comparing the deglutition function between the two groups (P>0.05). The total effective rate was 80.0%in the treatment group versus 50.0% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion Electroacupuncture is an effective method in treating deglutition disorder after radiotherapy of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Objective To perform a mechanical test of fresh cadaver specimens and compare the biomechanical properties of the novel minimal invasion dynamic hip plate (MIDHP) and the dynamic condylar screw (DCS) in treatment of subtrochanteric fractures of the femur.Methods All specimens were firstly used to simulate models of Seinsheimer type ⅡA subtrochanteric fractures of the femur,which were later divided into DCS group and MIDHP group.Based on experimental requirements,the femoral head and distal femur were embedded using seff-freezing type dental base acrylic resin powder.Torsion strength test was given in the first place,succeeded by compression strength test.Finally,destructive test was made to record the limit load.All experimental data were analyzed statistically.Results Torsion strength test showed that specimens of both groups were basically stable as the reverse was within 3°.Torque for specimens in DCS and MIDHP groups was (3.16 ± 0.13) N · m and (3.31 ± 0.27) N · m respectively as the reverse was 1.5°.Both torque and torsion stiffness had no statistical significance between the two groups,and the anti-rotation features of the two internal fixations were similar.Compression strength test showed that compression stiffness of specimens in DCS group was (532.27 ±61.02) N/mm and (581.98 ±77.56) N/mm in MIDHP group at a load of 800 N,with evidently higher compression displacement and stiffness in MIDHP group (P ＜ 0.05).Destructive test showed the maximum load of specimens in DCS and MIDHP groups was (2 994.38 ±244.81) N and (3 322.13 ± 141.21) N respectively,far higher in MIDHP group (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions MIDHP is characterized by reasonable design,strong anti-rotation property and anti-compression property over DCS.In comparison with DCS,MIDHP has biomechanical advantage in treatment of femoral subtrochanteric fractures,for it can be performed minimally invasive and is worthy of further application.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of endoscopy for patients with anastomotic or nonanastomotic biliary strictures after liver transplantation.Methods Clinical and follow-up data of 56 patients,38 (67.9％) with anastomotic strictures (AS),and 18 (32.1％) with nonanastomotic strictures (NAS) after liver transplantation,who underwent endoscopic therapy were collected and analyzed.Results Compared to AS patients,NAS patients showed shorter time from liver transplantation to initial presentation (4.45 ± 1.47 vs.8.00 ±2.31 months,P =0.000),underwent more ERCP procedures (6.20 ±1.28 vs.4.11 ± 1.51,P =0.000) and received more stents (10.20 ±3.59 vs.7.53 ±2.12,P =0.001).Although the success rate was not statistically different,patients with NAS needed longer treatment duration and had higher recurrence rate (50.0％ vs.18.2％,P =0.033) as well as shorter duration from treatment to recurrence.Among patients with AS,the treatment failure group had longer stricture length (13.00 ±3.61 vs.6.63 ±2.09,P =0.000) than the success group and the patients who experienced recurrence had longer stricture length (10.48 ± 1.07 vs.5.86 ± 1.55,P =0.000) and narrower stricture diameter (1.52 ± 0.38 vs.1.94 ± 0.32,P =0.001).Among NAS patients,the multiple biliary strictures group had lower success rate and higher recurrence rate,but with no statistical significance (62.5％ vs.90.0％,P =0.275 and 66.7％ vs.37.5％,P =0.592,recpectively).Conclusion NAS patients have lower response to endoscopic treatment than AS patients.The length and diameter of biliary stricture in AS as well as the number of stricture in NAS may influent the effect of endoscopic treatment.
