With the rapid development of laparoscopic techniques, the safety of laparoscopic surgery has gradually been recognized. Its advantages, including clear visualization, minimal trauma and faster recovery, are increasingly favored by surgeons and patients. Common postoperative complications of laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy include pancreatic fistula, bleeding, gastric paresis, pancreatic insufficiency, and wound infection. Among them, postoperative pancreatic fistula and its related complications are the leading causes of mortality after laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy. This article present an overview of the understanding of postoperative pancreatic fistula, combined with recent research progress in this field, to explore the potential mechanisms of pancreatic fistula occurrence and development, and also summarize the predictive models for postoperative pancreatic fistula and discuss the future trends in laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Objective:To discuss the effect of adipose-derived stem cell-derived exosomes(ADSC-Exos)on the migration ability of the macrophages RAW264.7,and to clarify its role in promoting function of the macrophages.Methods:The adipose tissue adjacent to epididymis of the SD rats was isolated to perform primary culture of the adipose-derived stem cells(ADSCs).The adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation induction was conducted,and the multidirectional differentiation potential of the ADSCs was detected by oil Red O and Alizarin red staining.Western blotting and immunofluorescence methods were used to detect the positive expressions of the ADSCs markers CD29 and CD44;the ADSC-Exos were extracted by Exos isolation kit,and the morphology,size,and distribution of particle size of the ADSC-Exos were examined by transmission electron microscope and nanoparticle tracking analyzer;the expression levels of exosome-specific markers CD9 and TSG101 proteins in the ADSC-Exos were detected by Western blotting method;the uptake of ADSC-Exos by the macrophages was observed by tracing method.The macrophages RAW264.7 were divided into control group,10 mg·L-1 ADSC-Exos group,20 mg·L-1 ADSC-Exos group,and 40 mg·L-1 ADSC-Exos group.The activities of the macrophages in various groups were detected by 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine(EdU)staining;the number of migration macrophages in various groups was detected by Transwell chamber assay;the adhesion of macrophages in various groups was observed by fluorescence microscope.Results:After 24 h of primary culture,the ADSCs adhered to the wall and exhibited scattered,elongated shapes;after 7 d of culture,the adherent cells showed a comb-like,vortex-like orderly arrangement,resembling fibroblasts;after 10 passages,the irregular morphology of the ADSCs and decreased proliferation rate were found.The isolated ADSCs showed potential for the osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation,and the expressions of CD29 and CD44 proteins were positive.The transmission electron microscope observation resuls showed that the ADSC-Exos appeared disc-shaped,and the main peak of particle size distribution was around 132 nm.The CD9 and TSG101 proteins were positively expressed in the ADSC-Exos,indicating successful extraction.The fluorescence microscope results showed red fluorescence signals around the nuclei of the RAW264.7 cells,indicating the uptake of ADSC-Exos by the macrophages.Compared with control group,the rates of EdU positive cells in 10,20,and 40 mg·L-1 ADSC-Exos groups were significantly increased(P<0.05);compared with 10 mg·L-1 ADSC-Exos group,the rate of EdU positive cells in 20 mg·L-1 ADSC-Exos group was significantly increased(P<0.05).Compared with control group,the numbers of migration cells in 10,20,and 40 mg·L-1 ADSC-Exos groups were significantly increased(P<0.05);compared with 10 mg·L-1 ADSC-Exos group,the numbers of migration cells in 20 and 40 mg·L-1 ADSC-Exos groups were significantly increased(P<0.05).Compared with control group,the numbers of the adherent macrophages in 10,20,and 40 mg·L-1 ADSC-Exos groups were significantly increased(P<0.05);compared with 10 mg·L-1 ADSC-Exos group,the number of adherent macrophages in 20 mg·L-1 ADSC-Exos group was significantly increased(P<0.05).Conclusion:The ADSC-Exos can be internalized by the macrophages and they can enhance the migration ability of the macrophages by affecting the cell adhesion.

Traditional Chinese medicines have demonstrated clinical efficacy in preventing and treating chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathic pain(CIPNP).However,their specific clinical application and mechanism of action require further in-depth study and exploration.There is thus a need to develop more accurate and clinically relevant animal models that reflect the occurrence and development of human diseases as a tool for research.This review provides an in-depth analysis and discussion of the recent establishment and detection criteria of existing rat and mouse animal models of paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathic pain.We also evaluate and explain the application of these models for the prevention and treatment of CIPNP in traditional Chinese medicine,thus providing a theoretical basis and reference for future experimental and mechanistic research on the subject.This research will benefit clinical practice and promotion,offering valuable insights into preventing and treating CIPNP using traditional Chinese medicines.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of high- and standard-dose radiotherapy (HD-RT vs. SD-RT) during definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy (dCCRT) for esophageal cancer (EC), aiming to assess the advantages and disadvantages of these two radiotherapy doses when using modern radiotherapy techniques. Methods:Literature review was conducted from PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang database, and abstracts of the American Society of Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) and the European Society of Radiotherapy and Oncology (ESTRO). Randomized controlled trials (RCT) comparing high-dose radiotherapy (HD-RT: ≥59.4 Gy,1.8 Gy per time) with standard-dose radiotherapy (SD-RT: 50 Gy, 2 Gy per time, or 50.4 Gy, 1.8 Gy per time) during dCCRT for EC were included. The retrieval time was from the establishment of the database to January 1, 2023. The meta-analysis was performed using Stata 16.0 software.Results:A total of 1 158 patients from 5 RCT that meet the inclusion criteria were finally included. In 4 RCT, subgroup analysis of 940 patients using modern radiotherapy techniques were performed. Patients in the HD-RT and SD-RT groups had similar 1-, 2-, and 3-year overall survival (OS)( RR=1.03, 95% CI=0.86-1.22, P=0.757; RR=1.05, 95% CI=0.94-1.17, P=0.433; RR=1.05, 95% CI=0.96-1.14, P=0.314; respectively) and 2- and 3-year locoregional progression-free survival (LRPFS) ( RR=0.94, 95% CI=0.82-1.08, P=0.390; RR=0.96, 95% CI=0.86-1.09, P=0.560; respectively). Patients in the HD-RT group had a higher incidence of grade ≥ 3 treatment-related adverse reactions rates ( OR=1.35, 95% CI=1.03-1.77, P=0.029) and treatment-related death rates ( OR=1.66, 95% CI=0.97-2.83, P=0.062) compared with their counterparts in the SD-RT group. In the subgroup analysis using modern radiotherapy techniques, HD-RT did not improve LRPFS compared to SD-RT, but increased the incidence of adverse reactions, and yielded no OS benefit. Conclusions:Whether modern precision radiation therapy is employed or not, SD-RT yields similar LRPFS and OS, and lower grade ≥ 3 treatment-related adverse reactions rates compared with HD-RT. Therefore, standard-dose (50 Gy, 2 Gy per time, or 50.4 Gy, 1.8 Gy per time) should be considered as the recommended dose in dCCRT for EC. Further RCT are needed to verify our conclusions.

Objective:To investigate the safety and efficacy of robot-guided ventricular partition puncture drainage in severe intraventricular hemorrhage.Methods:A total of 23 patients with severe intraventricular hemorrhage who underwent robot-guided ventricular partition puncture drainage (experimental group) and 19 patients who underwent robot-guided bilateral ventricular puncture drainage (control group) at Department of Neurosurgery, People's Hospital of Baise from January 2021 to December 2021 were included. The differences in residual hematoma volume within 24 h of surgery, drainage tube retention time, mortality rate within 30 d of surgery, incidence of complications (re-bleeding, intracranial infection, pulmonary infection, hydrocephalus) within 6 months of surgery, and scores of Glasgow coma scale (GCS), activity of daily living (ADL), and National Institutes of Health stroke scale (NIHSS) at 6 months after surgery were compared between the 2 groups.Results:Compared with the control group, the experimental group had significantly lower residual hematoma volume within 24 h of surgery ([8.854±3.519] mL vs. [5.668±2.873] mL), shorter drainage tube retention time ([6.580±1.981] d vs. [4.910±2.763] d), lower incidence of hydrocephalus within 6 months of surgery (42.105% vs. 8.696%), and significantly higher GCS and ADL scores and lower NIHSS scores at 6 months after surgery (8.790±2.898 vs. 11.610±2.948; 69.470±12.899 vs. 78.480±12.861; 13.950±5.265 vs. 9.870±4.124, P<0.05). Conclusion:Robot-guided ventricular partition puncture drainage is a safe and effective surgical method for severe intraventricular hemorrhage.

BACKGROUND:It has been confirmed that basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) can promote the growth, proliferation, differentiation and functional expression of most cels derived from neuroderm and mesoderm. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of bFGF-transfected bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel transplantation in rats with acute kidney injury. METHODS: bFGF genes were transfected into bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels via an adenovirus vector, and then expression of bFGF in transfected cels was identified using RT-PCR technology. Rat models of acute kidney injury were prepared by clipping bilateral renal pedicles, and then randomized into three groups (n=20): rats were given injection of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel suspensionsvia tail vein as negative transfected group, those given injection of bFGF-transfected bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel suspensionsvia tail vein as bFGF-transfected group, and the others given injection of DMEMvia tail vein as model group. Four weeks later, levels of serum creatinine and urea nitrogen were detected, expressions of connective tissue growth factor and growth factor in renal tissues were detected by Western blot assay, and morphology of renal tissues was observed using hematoxylin-eosin staining. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:bFGF genes were successfuly transfected into bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels. Compared with the model group, the levels of serum creatinine and urea nitrogen were significantly reduced in bFGF-transfected and negative transfected groups, especialy in the bFGF-transfected group (P < 0.05), while expressions of connective tissue growth factor and transforming growth factor in renal tissues in bFGF-transfected and negative transfected groups were significantly weakened in these two groups (P < 0.05), but there were no significant differences between the bFGF-transfected group and negative transfected group (P > 0.05). Besides, renal tissues necrosis and inflammatory reactions were mitigated in the negative transfected group; renal tubules with normal outlines and no overt necrotic cels could be found in the bFGF-transfected group. These findings show that bFGF-transfected bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel transplantation plays a better role in acute kidney injury repair in rats.

Hyperuricemia is a risk factor for various diseases, but knowledge on acute hyperuricemia is still not sufficient. The present study was aimed to investigate the effect of acute hyperuricemia on red blood cells from hemorheological point of view, and to provide the reference for clinical treatment. The rats were gavaged with 500 mg/kg hypoxanthine and intraperitoneally injected with 100 mg/kg oxonate to induce the model of acute hyperuricemia. The same volume of blood samples were drawn within time period of 0, 1, 2, 3 and 6 h, respectively, from the inner canthus of rats to measure the serum uric acid, hemorheological parameters and the malondialdehyde level. It was found that in each period of 1, 2 and 3 h, the rats had significantly higher levels of uric acid. The integrated deformation index and relax index were increased. The hemolysis rate was significantly reduced. The plasma malondialdehyde level was obviously decreased at the end of 2 h. The results suggested that short-term elevated uric acid could improve the hemorheological parameters and the lipid oxidative level in red blood cells.

Objective To investigate the serum concentrations of protein-bound uremic toxins of hippuric acid ( HA) , indoxyl sulfate ( IS ) , p-cresyl sulfate ( PCS ) and 3-carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furanpropionic acid ( CMPF ) in patients with chronic kidney disease(CKD) 3-5 stages(CKD3-5) and to assess the correlation between renal function and pro-tein-bound uremic toxin concentrations in CKD3-5 patients.Methods Serum concentrations of HA, IS, PCS, and CMPF from 60 healthy volunteers and 112 CKD3 -5 patients were measured by liquid chromatography mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry ( HPLC-MS/MS ) .Correlation analysis was conducted between the levels of HA, IS, PCS, CMPF and the estimated glomerular filtration rate( eGFR) .Results Compared with healthy subjects, serum concentrations of these four solutes were significantly increased in CKD3-5 patients (all P<0.01).The serum levels of HA,IS and PCS in CKD3-5 patients were significantly increased (all P<0.05),while those of CMPF did not significantly change (P>0.05).Linear correlation analysis showed that HA, IS, PCS and CMPF were in significantly negative correlation with eGFR.The curve regression analysis showed that the curvilinear regression fitting equation was Y=-46.171lnX+209.464(R2 =0.601,P<0.01)for HA and eGFR, Y=-62.570 lnX+279.537(R2 =0.633,P<0.01)for IS and eGFR, Y=-84.297 lnX+383.172(R2 =0.529,P<0.01)for PCS and eGFR, and was Y=-7.648 lnX+53.546(R2 =0.172,P<0.01)for CMPF and eGFR .Conclusion The levels of the four types of protein-bound toxins in CKD3-5 patients increase significantly compared to healthy subjects.The serum levels of HA,IS and PCS are increased when the renal function decreases, but the level of CMPF changes little.Renal dysfunction can lead to significantly elevated levels of HA,IS and PCS in CKD3-5 patients, but has little effect on CMPF.

Objective To evaluate the knee joint function at 3-7 years after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction with ligament advanced reinforcement system (LARS) artificial ligament and assess the morphologic changes of LARS artificial ligament in human tissues.Methods Fifty-seven patients (58 knees) undergone ACL reconstruction with LARS artificial ligament were recruited to this multi-factor retrospective study and divided into acute injury group and chronic injury group according to time between injury and operation.LARS artificial ligament harvested from the three patients (4 knees)who had an additional surgery were observed histologically.Results Knee joint function and range of movement were significantly improved after surgery (P ＜ O.O1),however subjective and objective estimation on knee joint function presented no statistical differences between the two groups (P ＞0.05).X-ray films and MRI revealed different degree of bone tunnel progressive augmentation in average 1.5 years,indistinctive correlation of knee joint stability with bone tunnel augmentation (P ＞ 0.5) as well as no statistical difference concerning incidence of tibial and femoral bone tunnel augmentation (P ＞ 0.05).Histological observation revealed well-arranged fiber tissue growth into LARS artificial ligament as well as fibrous joint among single-beam polyester fibers as well as a bundle of polyester fibers at postoperative 2 years.Conclusions (1) LARS artificial ligament gains a satisfactory knee joint stability and function in ACL reconstruction.(2) There exists bone tunnel augmentation that tends to stability at postoperative 1.5 years,but knee joint stability is not correlated to the extent of bone tunnel augmentation after surgery.(3) Postoperative data evaluation of acute injury and chronic injury is the same.(4) Human normal fibrous tissues grow into LARS artificial ligament regularly.
