To investigate the differences in postoperative short-term complications and long-term prognosis of pancreatic cancer(PC) patients after total pancreatectomy(TP) and pancreaticoduodenectomy(PD). Clinical data of PC patients who underwent TP from January 2016 to December 2021(TP group) and PD from January 2019 to December 2021(PD group) at Peking Union Medical College Hospital were retrospectively collected. Patients in the PD group were divided into the pancreatic fistula(PF) high-risk PD group and the recurrence high-risk PD group according to risk factors. After propensity score matching, the differences in postoperative short-term surgical efficacy indicators(postoperative complication rate, 30 d mortality rate, length of hospital stay, etc.), long-term surgical efficacy indicators(overall survival), and quality of life were compared between the TP group and the PF high-risk PD group or the recurrence high-risk PD group. A total of 32 patients in the TP group and 114 patients in the PD group(99 patients in the PF high-risk PD group and 15 patients in the recurrence high-risk PD group) meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled.(1)TP group and PF high-risk PD group: after propensity score matching, 29 patients in the TP group and 56 patients in the PF high-risk PD group were finally included. There was no PF in the TP group, and the rate of PF in the PF high-risk PD group was 19.64%( For PC patients at high risk of PF, TP can achieve short-term surgical outcomes and long-term quality of life comparable to PD with no burden of postoperative pancreatic fistula. For patients with high-risk recurrence, TP can significantly prolong the survival of PC patients while ensuring surgical safety.
2.Advances in prevention and treatment of complications related to percutaneous intervention of atrial septal defect in children
International Journal of Pediatrics 2024;51(7):431-435
Atrial septal defect(ASD)is one of the most common congenital heart diseases in children. Although most children with this condition may not exhibit clinical symptoms,persistent left-to-right shunting can increase the burden on the right heart and compromise cardiac function as they age. Therefore,early intervention is crucial for these children. Percutaneous intervention has superseded conventional surgery as the primary mode of treatment for secondary atrial septal defect in children. The procedure has a low rate of postoperative complications,but carries a substantial risk. Serious complications include unsatisfactory device position or embolization,cardiac erosion,atrioventricular block,thrombosis or thromboembolism,air embolism,and hemolysis. Common complications include headache or migraine,residual shunt,and vascular-related complications. This review focuses on the pathogenesis,clinical presentations,prevention and treatment of complications related to percutaneous intervention of atrial septal defect in children.

The first rate-limiting enzyme of the serine synthesis pathway (SSP), phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH), is hyperactive in multiple tumors, which leads to the activation of SSP and promotes tumorigenesis. However, only a few inhibitors of PHGDH have been discovered to date, especially the covalent inhibitors of PHGDH. Here, we identified withangulatin A (WA), a natural small molecule, as a novel covalent inhibitor of PHGDH. Affinity-based protein profiling identified that WA could directly bind to PHGDH and inactivate the enzyme activity of PHGDH. Biolayer interferometry and LC-MS/MS analysis further demonstrated the selective covalent binding of WA to the cysteine 295 residue (Cys295) of PHGDH. With the covalent modification of Cys295, WA blocked the substrate-binding domain (SBD) of PHGDH and exerted an allosteric effect to induce PHGDH inactivation. Further studies revealed that with the inhibition of PHGDH mediated by WA, the glutathione synthesis was decreased and intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) were elevated, leading to the inhibition of tumor proliferation. This study indicates WA as a novel PHGDH covalent inhibitor, which identifies Cys295 as a novel allosteric regulatory site of PHGDH and holds great potential in developing anti-tumor agents for targeting PHGDH.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy between the pressing tendon suture with a lateral anchor and the knotted suture with a lateral anchor in the treatment of severe rotator cuff tear under shoulder arthroscopy.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted of the 42 patients who had been treated at Department of Orthopedic Sports Medicine, Affiliated Hospital to Qingdao University from December 2018 to December 2019 for severe rotator cuff tear. They were 13 males and 29 females, with an age of (58.3±10.1) years (from 32 to 74 years). The injury was on the right side in 26 cases and on the left side in 16 cases. Of them, 22 received pressing tendon suture with a lateral anchor under shoulder arthroscopy and 20 knotted suture with a lateral anchor under shoulder arthroscopy. The flexion, abduction and external rotation of the shoulder, Visual Analog Scale (VAS) pain score, University of California-Los Angeles (UCLA) score, Constant-Murley shoulder score, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score and imaging MRI Sugaya grading were compared between the 2 groups 12 months after operation.Results:There was no significant difference in the preoperative general data between the 2 groups, showing comparability between them ( P>0.05). At 12 months after operation, the pressing tendon suture group had better abduction and flexion of the shoulder, a lower VAS pain score and a higher ASES score than the knotted suture group, but the differences were insignificant ( P>0.05). At 12 months after operation, the pressing tendon suture group achieved significantly better external rotation (39.2°±11.7°) and significantly higher UCLA score (28.1±4.7) and Constant-Murley shoulder score (77.0±9.3) than the knotted suture group (29.8°±14.6°, 22.1±5.7 and 66.4±11.0) ( P<0.05). At 12 months after operation, the imaging MRI Sugaya grading was significantly lower for the pressing tendon suture group than that for the knotted suture group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:In the treatment of patients with severe rotator cuff tear under shoulder arthroscopy, the pressing tendon suture with a lateral anchor may lead to better clinical prognosis than the knotted suture with a lateral anchor.

Objective To study the relationship between juxtapapillary duodenal diverticulum (JPDD) and pancreaticobiliary diseases, and the effect of JPDD on the diagnosis and treatment of ERCP. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on data of 1230 patients who had received ERCP in general surgery departments of Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University from January 2012 to January 2017. The patients were divided into JPDD group ( n=360) and non-JPDD group ( n=870) according to whether JPDD was found. Patients with JPDD were divided into intradiverticular papilla group ( n=41) and non-intradiverticular papilla group ( n=319) according to whether the papilla located in diverticulum. The incidence of pancreaticobiliary diseases, success rate of cannulation, success rate of stones removal, and incidence of postoperative complications among each group were compared by using chi-square test or Fisher's exact probability. P < 0. 05 was statistically significant. Results The incidence of choledocholithiasis, primary choledocholithiasis and recurrent choledocholithiasis were 87. 78% (316/360), 31. 11% (112/360), and 6. 67% (24/360), respectively, in the JPDD group, and 75. 52% (657/870),19. 08% (166/870), and 4. 02% (35/870), respectively, in the non-JPDD group. There were significant differences between the two groups (χ2=23. 158, P<0. 001; χ2=21. 068, P<0. 001; χ2=3. 897, P=0. 048) . No significant differences were observed in the success rate of cannulation and complete stones removal during the first ERCP session, as well as the incidence of postoperative hemorrhage, pancreatitis and hyperamylasemia between the two groups ( all P>0. 05) . The incidence of recurrent choledocholithiasis in the intradiverticular papilla group and the non-intradiverticular papilla group were 14. 63% ( 6/41) and 5. 64% (18/319), respectively, with significant difference (χ2 =4. 721, P=0. 030). There were no significant differences between the two groups in the incidence of choledocholithiasis and primary choledocholithiasis, the success rate of cannulation and complete stones removal during the first ERCP session, as well as the incidence of postoperative hemorrhage, pancreatitis and hyperamylasemia ( all P>0. 05) . Conclusion JPDD is associated with the occurrence of primary choledocholithiasis. JPDD patients, especially the patients with intradiverticular papilla, are more likely to have recurrent choledocholithiasis after ERCP treatment.

Objective:
To investigate the effect of thapsigargin (TG) which can induce endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) on the replication of coxsackievirus B 3 (CV-B3).
Methods:
After 10 MOI CV-B3 infected HeLa cells were exposed 0.25 μmol/L TG for 3 h, 6 h and 9 h, virus RNA of HeLa cells were extracted and viral replication was evaluated by real time PCR. After 0.25 μmol/L、0.08 μmol/L and 0.025 μmol/L TG exposed, the plaque of CV-B3 was used to confirm further replication of CV-B3. To verify TG induced ERS through three signal pathway, one of among PERK, ATF6 and IRE1 inhibitors GSK2656157, AEBSF and STF-083010, and 0.25 μmol/L TG were used in HeLa cells infected with 10 MOI CV-B3, replication of CV-B3 was evaluated by qRT-PCR.
Results:
The stimulation of TG did not induce increase of virus replication after post-infection 3 h. However, TG induced replication of virus to increase 2.5 times after post-infection 6 h and 158.6 times after post-infection 9 h. And, the area of viral plaque was significantly increased. ATF6 inhibitors AEBSF significantly inhibited promotion of virus replication from TG.
Conclusions
TG can promote the replication of CV-B3 through ATF6 signal pathway.
