Helicobacter pylori(Hp)infection is widely prevalent in the world and is a Group Ⅰ carcinogen announced by WHO.Colorectal polyps can be classified as non-adenomatous polyps and adenomatous polyps,and adenomatous polyps is recognized as precancerous lesion of colorectal cancer.More and more studies have found that Hp infection is associated with the formation of colorectal polyps.This article reviewed the progress of research on correlation between Hp infection and colorectal polyps,so as to provide reference for the formulation of clinical diagnosis and treatment strategies for gastrointestinal diseases.

Objective:To investigate the clinical value of emergent endoscopic intervention at different times of acute esophageal and gastric fundal varices bleeding.Methods:From July 2020 to December 2022, data of 207 cases of liver cirrhosis with esophageal and gastric fundal variceal bleeding diagnosed by gastroscopy were retrospectively analyzed, including 74 cases from the Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, 41 cases from Affiliated Jinhua Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, 36 cases from Lanxi People's Hospital, 31 cases from Yongkang First People's Hospital and 25 cases from Pujiang People's Hospital. Patients were divided into 3 groups according to the time of endoscopic intervention and treatment. Patients who received endoscopic treatment within 6 h of hemorrhage were included in group A ( n=68); patients within 6-24 hours were in group B ( n=72). A total of 67 patients selected for conservative drug treatment were included in group C, who did not undergo endoscopic therapy. The prognosis (success rate of hemostasis, early rebleeding rate, mortality rate) and treatment benefit (open diet time, blood transfusion volume, hospital stay, hospital cost) of the 3 groups were compared. Results:The success rates of hemostasis were 100.00% (68/68), 97.22% (70/72), 86.57% (58/67) in group A, B and C respectively with significant difference ( χ2=13.51, P<0.001). The mortalities of the three groups were 0.00% (0/68) in group A, 2.78% (2/72) in group B and 13.43% (9/67) in in group C respectively with significant difference ( χ2 =15.61, P<0.001). The early rebleeding rates of the three groups were 0.00% (0/68) in group A, 2.86% (2/70) in group B, and 13.43% (5/58) in group C respectively with significant difference ( χ2 =3.41, P=0.182). There were significant differences in open diet time (group A: 28.32 ±2.52 h, group B: 37.25±2.45 h, group C: 66.62±2.65 h, F=58.69, P<0.001), blood transfusion volume (group A: 3.62 ± 0.30 U, group B: 5.46 ± 0.37 U, group C: 6.25 ± 0.39 U, F=11.35, P<0.001), hospital stay (group A: 6.58 ± 0.23 d, group B: 7.83 ± 0.34 d, group C: 8.24 ± 0.45 d, F=5.75, P=0.004) and cost (group A: 10 152±821 yuan, group B: 13 568 ± 1 017 yuan, group C: 15 306 ± 1 186 yuan, F=4.96, P=0.008) among the three groups. There was significant difference in Child-Pugh grading among hemostasis-success patients and those who failed ( χ2 =15.63, P<0.001). Conclusion:Early endoscopic diagnosis and treatment in the early 24 hours of acute esophageal and gastric fundal variceal hemorrhage can improve the prognosis and reduce the economic burden of patients with high clinical application value.

Background:Gastrointestinal bleeding is caused by factors such as poor platelet and coagulation function,and damage to varicose veins during endoscopic secondary preventive treatment in cirrhosis patients with gastroesophageal varices.At present,there is no clear standard for the use of somatostatin and its analogues after endoscopic secondary preventive treatment.Aims:To investigate the clinical value of somatostatin in preventing rebleeding after endoscopic secondary prophylaxis in patients with gastroesophageal varices.Methods:Clinical data of cirrhotic patients with gastroesophageal varices underwent endoscopic secondary prevention(endoscopic variceal ligation,endoscopic injection sclerotherapy,endoscopic cyanoacrylate injection)from Sept.2020 to Aug.2023 in this region were retrospectively analyzed.And patients were divided into group A(conventional therapy)and group B(conventional therapy+somatostatin).The prognosis(rebleeding rate,mortality rate),treatment benefit(length of stay,hospitalization cost)and blood indicators of the two groups were compared.Results:There was no significant difference in bleeding rate 3 days and 6 weeks after surgery between group A and Group B(P>0.05),and no death occurred after surgery.Hospital stay and hospitalization cost in group A were significantly decreased than in group B(P<0.05).No significant difference in incidence of adverse reaction was found between the two groups(χ2=3.21,P>0.05).No significant differences in hemoglobin,platelets,creatinine and liver function Child grade 6 weeks after surgery in group A and group B were found when compared with before surgery(P>0.05),while D-Dimer level was significantly decreased(P<0.05).Conclusions:For patients with gastroesophageal varices,endoscopic secondary preventive surgery can be performed according to the characteristics of blood flow after preoperative CT examination,and somatostatin can be unnecessary after surgery to improve treatment compliance and reduce the economic burden of patients.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety between WangShiBaoChiWan and mosapride in the treatment of functional dyspepsia (FD).Methods:From September 2019 to September 2020, patients with postprandial fullness and early satiation who met the Rome Ⅳ criteria for FD diagnosis were enrolled from 15 hospitals, including the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University (Shanghai Changhai Hospital), Beijing Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical College. The subjects were randomly divided into WangShiBaoChiWan (experimental) group and mosapride (control) group in the ratio of 1∶1. The treatment regimens were WangShiBaoChiWan+ mosapride simulator, WangShiBaoChiWan simulator+ mosapride, respectively with a treatment period of 2 weeks. The primary efficacy outcome was the improvement rates of main symptoms before and after treatment, the secondary efficacy primary efficacy outcome was the total clinical effective rate and the change of the single symptom score. And the safety indicator included adverse events. Independent sample t-test, paired t-test and chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Results:A total of 251 FD patients were enrolled in the full analysis set, including 124 in the experimental group and 127 in the control group; 241 FD patients were in the per-protocol analysis set, including 117 in the experimental group and 124 in the control group. The analysis of per-protocol analysis set showed that the improvement rates of the main symptoms of the experimental group and the control group were (66±29)% and (60±30)%, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The improvement rate of the main symptoms of the experimental group reached 117% of that of the control group, which exceeded the expected non-inferiority standard of 80%. The total clinical effective rates of the experimental group and the control group were 76.07% (89/117) and 75.81% (94/124), respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The results of full analysis set showed that the incidence of adverse events of the experimental group and the control group was 1.62% (2/124) and 1.57% (2/127), respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). There were no serious adverse events in the two groups. Conclusion:The improvement rate of the main symptoms of WangShiBaoChiWan is not inferior to that of mosapride in the treatment of FD, and it has good safety.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of oral sulfate solution (OSS) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) electrolyte powder for colonoscopy bowel preparation.Methods:A total of 283 randomized patients from 9 centers in China taking OSS ( n=143) or PEG ( n=140) using two-day split bowel preparation regimen received colonoscopy and assessment. The primary index was the bowel preparation success rate [global Boston bowel preparation scale (BBPS)≥ 6 by independent assessment center]. Secondary indices included BBPS global and segmental scores, investigator satisfaction (5-point Likert scale) with the quality of bowel preparation, patient satisfaction assessed by questionnaires, and patient tolerance assessed by Sharma scale. Compliance and safety were compared between the two groups. Results:The bowel preparation success rates were 100.0% for OSS and 99.3% for PEG [adjusted difference 0.7% (95% CI: -5.3% - 6.7%), P<0.001 for non-inferiority]. The BBPS global score in OSS group was significantly higher than that in PEG group (8.1 VS 7.7, P<0.001). The segment BBPS scores were also higher in OSS group than those in PEG group for all 3 segments (right colon: 2.4 VS 2.3, P=0.002; transverse colon: 2.8 VS 2.7, P=0.018; left colon: 2.8 VS 2.7, P=0.007). Investigator Likert score in the OSS group was significantly higher than that in the PEG group (2.6 VS 2.3, P<0.001). There was no significant difference in compliance between OSS and PEG, except for the second dose (90.9% VS 82.6%, P=0.039). There was no significant difference in patient satisfaction, Sharma score or proportion of patients with tolerance-related symptoms between the two groups. Safety was comparable between the two groups, and all adverse events were mild to moderate. Conclusion:OSS has comparable efficacy with PEG, with higher BBPS scores in all segments, better investigator satisfaction, better compliance in split dose, and comparable patient tolerance and safety.

Objective To establish an artificial intelligence deep learning model using clinical colonoscopy images and video to assist the diagnosis by colonoscopy. Methods More than 600000 colonoscopy images were collected in endoscopic center of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from 2014 to 2018, and endoscopic experts recorded a large number of high-quality operation video of colonoscopy as analysis data. After repeated discussion by six experts, the classified intestinal sites and pathological features were determined, and fuzzy and confusable images were deleted. The final selection result was approximately 1 out of 4. And then the features of images were marked using an independently developed software. The deep learning algorithm was developed using TensorFlow platform of Google. Results After repeated comparison and analysis of the results of machine training and judgment results combined with pathology from endoscopic experts, the sensitivity of the model for some diseases ( such as colon polyps) was 99％ under laboratory conditions. In the clinical colonoscopy test, the sensitivity, specificity, and overall accuracy of this model for diagnosis of colon polyps were 98. 30％(4187/4259), 88. 10％ (17620/20000), and 92. 92％ [2×98. 30％×88. 10％/(98. 30％+88. 10％)], respectively. The sensitivity and specificity for ulcerative colitis were 78. 32％ ( 2671/3410) , and 67. 06％(13412/20000), respectively. The diagnosis time spent on a single image was 0. 5±0. 03 s, and it was the real time for application, including system recognition, text prompt in video image, background record and storage. Conclusion The artificial intelligence assisted diagnosis model developed by our team can identify colonic polyps, colorectal cancer, colorectal eminence, colonic diverticulum, ulcerative colitis, etc. The auxiliary diagnosis model of colon disease can guide beginners to carry out colonoscopy, and can improve lesion detection rate, reduce misdiagnosis rate, and improve the overall operating efficiency of endoscopic center, which is conducive to the quality control of colonoscopy.

And there was no statistically significant difference in the improvement of PDS main symptoms(postprandial fullnessand early satiety)between the two groups (56.3% ±27.9% vs 54.4% ±32.1%,t =0.606,P =0.727 ).For those with baseline symptom score over 14,median early satiety score of trial group after the treatment was 0,which was lower than that of control group,and the difference was statistically significant (Z =-2.370,P =0.018).The total efficacy rate of traditional medicine of trial group was 80.8% (59/73 )and that of control group was 72.0% (54/75 ),and the difference was not statistically significant (χ2 = 0.676,P =0.411 ).Conclusion Houpu Paiqi mixture has certain efficacy in FD with abdominal distension,and could be used for the treatment of PDS-predominant FD.

AIM: To investigate the apoptosis of implanted tumor of primary human gastric cancer cells in nude mice induced by genistein and the relation between this apoptosis and expression of bcl - 2 and bax. METHODS: Establishing a transplanted tumor model by injecting human primary gastric cancer cells into subcutaneous tissue of nude mice. The different doses of genistein (0.5mg/kg, 1mg/kg and 1.5 mg/kg ) were directly injected beside tumor body respectively,for six times at an interval of two days. Then changes of tumor volume were measured continuously and tumor inhibition rate of each group was calculated. We observed the morphologic alteration by electron microscope, measured the apoptotic rate by TUNEL staining method, detected the expression of apoptosis - regulated gene bcl - 2 and bax by immunohistochemical staining and RT- PCR. RESULTS: Genistein could significantly inhibit carcinoma growth when it was injected near the carcinoma. Genistein induced implanted tumors cells to undergo apoptosis with apoptotic characteristics by transmission electron microscope. The apoptosis index of above three groups was increased progressively. Positive rate of Bcl - 2 protein of above three groups was decreased progressively and positive rate of Bax protein of above three groups was increased progressively by immunohistochemical staining. The density of bcl -2 mRNA decreased progressively and the density of bax mRNA increased progressively with elongation of time by RT - PCR. CONCLUSION: Genistein is able to induce the apoptosis of transplanted tumor cells. This apoptosis may be mediated by down - regulating bcl - 2 and up - regulating bax mRNA and its protein.
