Objective To investigate the safety and effectiveness of laparoscopic orchiopexy assisted by needle grasper hydrodissection for cryptorchidism.Methods From September 2020 to September 2022,21 children with cryptorchidism on 25 sides underwent laparoscopic orchiopexy assisted by needle grasper hydrodissection in our department.The water injection function of needle grasper was applied to inject normal saline into the retroperitoneal space to fully separate the retroperitoneum from the vas deferens and spermatic cord,establishing a liquid barrier to protect the vas deferens and spermatic cord.Then the retroperitoneum was bridge-likely cut off with the assistance of needle grasper.The vas deferens and spermatic cord were completely released in accordance with the principle of integrity and non-destructiveness,then the testes were successfully induced and fixed.Results During the operation,15 cases of inguinal cryptorchidism and 6 cases of intra-abdominal cryptorchidism were confirmed.There were 17 cases of unilateral cryptorchidism and 4 cases of bilateral cryptorchidism.All the 25 testes were successfully re-located into the dartos pouch of the scrotum under laparoscopic guidance.The operation time was 35-75 min(mean,45.1±14.3 min),and there were no surgical complications.During follow-ups for 12-24 months in 21 cases,the testicles were found located in the scrotum without retraction,atrophy,incision infection,incision hernia,or inguinal hernia.Conclusions Needle grasper hydrodissection assisted laparoscopic orchiopexy can effectively protect the vas deferens and spermatic cord.The operation is simple,safe,and effective.

Objective:To study the treatment efficacy and safety in using needle-grasper assisted single-port laparoscopic hepaticojejunostomy to treat choledochal cysts in children.Methods:The data of 41 patients with choledochal cysts treated at the Department of Pediatric Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University and the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2018 to December 2021 were reviewed. There were 8 males and 33 females, aged (2.5±1.9) years. These patients were divided into the needle-grasper assisted single-port laparoscopic hepaticojejunostomy group (needle-grasper group, n=21) and the single-port laparoscopic hepaticojejunostomy group (control group, n=20). Operation time, intestinal function recovery time, gastric tube retention time, abdominal drain indwelling time, postoperative hospital stay, and perioperative complications were compared between the two groups. Results:All 21 children in the needle-grasper group underwent successful surgery without any need to convert to conventional laparoscopic or open surgery. The operation time (156.4±21.2) min was significantly shorter than the control group (218.3±28.6) min ( t=2.95, P=0.017). There were no significant differences in intestinal function recovery time, gastric tube retention time, abdominal drain indwelling time, postoperative hospital stay and perioperative complications between the two groups (all P>0.05). Parents were very satisfied with the cosmetic effect of the invisible scar after surgery. Conclusion:Needle-grasper assisted single-port laparoscopic hepaticojejunostomy was safe, reliable and the operation time was shorter than using a single-port to achieve minimally invasive and scarless surgery.

Objective: To observe the clinical effects of stage-Ⅱ Meek skin grafting on adipose tissue after tangential excision in patients with extensive deep burns, and to explore the functional mechanism. Methods: The medical records of 26 extensively burned patients who met the inclusion criteria and were admitted to the Department of Burns and Plastic Surgery of the Fourth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital from May 2015 to December 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the treatment methods, 14 patients were enrolled in stage-Ⅰ skin grafting group (10 males and 4 females, aged 27 to 75 years), and 12 patients were enrolled in stage-Ⅱ skin grafting group (10 males and 2 females, aged 31 to 76 years). Patients in the 2 groups all underwent debridement of tangential excision, and their healthy adipose tissue was preserved. Meek skin grafting was performed just after tangential excision in patients in stage-Ⅰ skin grafting group. In patients in stage-Ⅱ skin grafting group, porcine acellular dermal matrix (ADM) was applied to cover the wound after tangential excision, and 3 days later, it was removed and Meek skin grafting was performed. The times of complement skin grafting and the wound basic healing time of patients in the 2 groups were observed and recorded. In the stage-Ⅱ skin grafting group, the adipose tissue of patients were taken from the wound center immediately after tangential excision and immediately after the removal of porcine ADM, for the observation of structure of the fault surface of adipose tissue through hematoxylin and eosin staining and microvessel density (MVD) through immunohistochemical staining. Data were processed with independent sample t test and Fisher′s exact probability test. Results: (1) The times of complement skin grafting of patients in stage-Ⅱ skin grafting group was (1.83±0.17) times, which was obviously less than (3.36±0.63) times in stage-Ⅰ skin grafting group (t=2.19, P<0.05). The wound basic healing time of patients in stage-Ⅱ skin grafting group was (35.1±2.3) d, which was obviously shorter than (48.8±4.9) d in stage-Ⅰ skin grafting group (t=2.27, P<0.05). (2) Immediately after tangential excision, the intercellular substance was few between the adipose cells in adipose tissue of patients in stage-Ⅱ skin grafting group. Immediately after the removal of porcine ADM, there was regenerated granulation tissue in the intercellular space of adipose cells of adipose tissue of patients in stage-Ⅱ skin grafting group. Immediately after tangential excision, the MVD of adipose tissue of patients in stage-Ⅱ skin grafting group was 20.2±1.3 under per 400-time field, which was obviously less than 32.2±1.9 under per 400-time field immediately after the removal of porcine ADM (t=-5.38, P<0.01). Conclusions Meek skin grafting on the adipose tissue in stage-Ⅱ surgery after tangential excision could reduce the times of complement skin grafting and shorten wound healing time of patients with extensive deep burns. The mechanism may be related to the improvement of the recipient condition of adipose tissue.

ObjectiveTo investigate the current status of compliance with antiviral therapy with nucleos(t)ide analogues (NAs) among chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients treated in General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University. MethodsThe CHB patients who received antiviral therapy with NAs at the outpatient and inpatient services of Department of Infectious Diseases, General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University, from May to December, 2017 were enrolled. A questionnaire survey was performed for demographics, family history of CHB, detailed doctor’s advice, daily routines, physical exercise, compliance, awareness of the knowledge about hepatitis B, health belief, and social support, and the influence of various factors on compliance with NAs treatment was analyzed. The Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between groups, and the chi-square test or the Fisher’s exact test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups. A multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the influencing factors for compliance with antiviral therapy with NAs among CHB patients. ResultsA total of 612 questionnaires were distributed, among which 600 were collected, with a questionnaire recovery rate of 98% and a valid rate of 100%. Among the 600 CHB patients, 334 (55.67%) had good compliance with the antiviral therapy with NAs and 266 (44.33%) had poor compliance. Among the 266 CHB patients with poor compliance, 56 (21.05%) did not follow the doctor’s advice and took other drugs, 206 (77.44%) sometimes forgot medication, 187 (7030%) sometimes did not pay attention to medication (time, dose, and frequency), 135 (50.75%) reduced or stopped drugs after symptoms were improved, and 100 (37.59%) stopped the drugs due to symptom aggravation or appearance of other symptoms. The univariate analysis showed that 13 indices were the influencing factors for compliance with NAs treatment among CHB patients (all P＜0.05). A multivariate analysis was performed for these 13 indices and the results showed that race (odds ratio ［OR］=0.218, 95% confidence interval ［CI］: 0.076-0.996, P=0.007), mode of medical payment (OR=0.772, 95%CI: 0.445-0.919, P＜0.001), physical exercise (OR=2.55, 95%CI: 1.472-6.545, P=0.020), level of social support (OR=0.836, 95%CI: 0.649-0.947, P＜0.001), awareness of the outcome of incompliance (OR=0.577, 95%CI: 0.393-0.886, P＜0.001), and self-efficacy (OR=0.094, 95%CI: 0074-0.328, P＜0.001) were independent influencing factors for compliance with NAs treatment among CHB patients. ConclusionCompliance with antiviral therapy among CHB patients is closely associated with the mode of medical payment, psychological state, and self-management ability. Related measures, such as improvement of patients’ ability to pay medical expenses, education on disease risk for patients, and reduction of social discrimination, can help to improve treatment compliance.

Objective: To investigate whether type 2 diabetes mellitus increases the risk of hepatitis B-related cirrhosis combined with type 2 diabetes mellitus for the occurrence of primary hepatocellular carcinoma, and to compare the effects of different nature of diabetes duration on the risk of different anti-diabetic drugs. Methods: A retrospective case-control study was conducted. (1) 325 cases with hepatitis B-related cirrhosis complicated with primary hepatocellular carcinoma were selected as the study group and 601 patients with hepatitis B cirrhosis as the control group. The relationship between diabetes mellitus and the risk of primary liver cancer was analyzed by multivariate logistic regression analysis. (2) Selected the study group and control group combined with type 2 diabetes mellitus, and used multivariate logistic regression analysis to study the relationship between diabetes-related factors and the risk of primary liver cancer. Results: The incidence of diabetes was 14.2% in the study group and 6.0% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant between the two groups (P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that type 2 diabetes was one of the independent risk factors for primary hepatocellular carcinoma, which had increased the risk of primary hepatocellular carcinoma (adjusted odds ratio (AOR): 1.982, 95% CI: 1.224-3.210). Patients with diabetes > 10 years (adjusted ratio: AOR value 6.011, 95% CI: 1.659-21.777) were at significantly higher risk for primary hepatocellular carcinoma than that of patients with diabetes < 10 years. Metformin (adjusted odds ratio: AOR 0.188, 95% CI: 0.052-0.688) had reduced the risk, while insulin (adjusted odds ratio: AOR 6.682, 95% CI: 1.899-23.510) had increased the risk. Conclusion Type 2 diabetes mellitus is one of the independent risk factors for primary HCC, which can increase the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma in hepatitis B cirrhosis in relation to the duration of diabetes mellitus. The risk of hepatocellular carcinoma is higher in patients with duration of diabetes > 10 years and metformin reduces the risk.

Objective To investigate the social function, adverse reaction and medication adherence of paliperidone, amisulpride, and olanzapine in patients with first episode schizophrenia.Methods A total of 96 patients with first episode of schizophrenia was randomly divided into three groups, with reference to random numbers, among which there were 32 in paliperidone group, 32 cases in amisulpride group, and 32 in olanzapine group.All the patients in all groups were assessed with negative and positive scale (PANSS), personal and social performance scale (PSP), drug attitude inventory (DAI) at baseline and the end of 6 months.Results (1) There was no significant difference in the therapeutic effect between three groups (P ＞ 0.05);(2) The scores of PSP and DAI were increased in three groups after treatment, and the difference was statistically significant compared to that before treatment (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Three drugs have similar efficacy in the treatment of first-episode schizophrenia, and there is no significant difference in improving medication compliance and social function.

Objective:To study the immunotherapy effects of different doses of human peripheral blood γδT cells on human hepatoma cells (SMMC-7721) xenograft model.Methods: (1)The nude mouse model of liver cancer was established by inoculated BALB/c mouse subcutaneous with human hepatoma cell line (SMMC-7721).(2)The mononuclear cells in healthy human were extracted from peripheral blood,and specific amplification γδT cells in vitro.(3) The nude mouse model divided into 5 groups by random.The positive control group was 5-Fu,negative control group was normal saline(NS).The treatment group was injected different doses of γδT cells(1×105,5×105 and 25×105)by nude mice tail vein.The positive control group injected 5-Fu by enterocoelia,negative control group injected NS by tail veins.The inhibition effect of different dose γδT cells on tumor was observed,including weight,food intake and growth conditions,etc.and the changes of tumor volume (TV),relative tumor volume (RTV)and relative tumor appreciation rate[T/C(%)] were compared with positive control group and negative control group.Results: Different dose of γδT cells had different degree of inhibition on nude mouse xenograft growth.RTV compared with saline negative control group was statistically significant (P<0.05).Compared with the positive control group of 5-Fu,the TV growth was significantly lower than the 5-Fu,degree of inhibition was similar in RTV each dose group,and all slightly higher than the 5-Fu positive control group.The each dose group of T/C (%)was slightly lower than the relative tumor proliferation rate of the control group of 5-Fu,but had no significant difference.Conclusion: The γδT cells from peripheral blood had significant inhibitory effect on nude mice transplanted liver tumor and it may be used as a new treatment for liver cancer immunotherapy provide experimental data.

Objective To compare the surgical and functional outcomes of single-site (transumbilical two-port) intracorporeal purse-suturing (IP) and single-port extracorporeal knotting (EK) for laparoscopic pediatric inguinal hernia (PIH) repair.Methods Between June 2008 and December 2014,358 PIH children underwent lapamscopic inguinal herniorrhaphy,including 126 treated by single-site intracorporeal purse string stitching using a needle-holder (IP group),and 232 by single-port extracorporeal knotting using an inner two-hook needle with preperitoneal hydrodissection (EK group).Results In all patients laparoscopic procedures were completed successfully without conversion.The operating time in IP group was significantly longer than that in EK group [unilateral:(20.4 ± 2.1) min vs.(9.4 ± 1.3) min,t=-5.23,P＜0.01;bilateral:(31.3 ±2.9) min vs.(15.2±1.7) min,t=-4.22,P＜0.01)].The hospital stay were similar between the two groups [(2.35 ±0.25) d vs.(2.38 ±0.18) d,t =-0.062,P ＞ 0.05].Five cases had intraoperative hematoma in the IP group while none in the EK group.One each suffered from recurrence in IP group and EK group.Three postoperative hydroceles were seen in IP group and one in EK group.Subcutaneous knot granulomas were seen in two in EK group.Conclusions Both IP and EK laparoscopic procedures are safe and feasible.With the assistance of preperitoneal hydrodissection technique,single-port laparoscopic EK herniorraphy is superior to single-site IP repair in easy performance and shorter operation time.

Objective To investigate the distribution of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infections among general population in Tianjin. Methods Individuals (n=11 096) who visited our hospital for medical examination and H. Pylori infection screen were included in the research objects. Rapid urease method was utilized to rapidly detect H. pylori infection among the popultion. Individuals were grouped based on their gender, age and occupations, and then were analyzed. Results H. pylori-positive rate was 30.52%(3 386/11 096) in 11 096 individuals, in which there were 34.77%(1 784/5 131) male and 26.86%(1 602/5 965) female respectively. Individuals were divided into 5 groups according to their ages:19 to 29 years old group, 30 to 39 years old group, 40 to 49 years old group, 50 to 59 years old group, 60 to 69 years old group and 70 to 92 years old group. The positive rates of H. pylori increased with age:19.50%( 379/1 944 ) in 19-29 years old group, 25.82%(650/2 517 ) in 30-39 years old group, 31.59%( 908/2 874 ) in 40-49 years old group, 37.48%(915/2 441 ) in 50-59 years old group, 41.09%( 353/859 ) in 60-69 years old group and 39.18%(181/462) in 70-92 years old group. The differences in positive rates between different age groups were all of statistically significant (P<0.05). Individuals were also divided into seven groups according to their occupations: medical worker group, worker group, teacher group, engineer group, clerk group, civil worker group and other career group. The positive rates of H. pylori infection were 25.42%(586/2 305), 29.35%(1 062/3 618), 30.61%(360/1 176), 32.49%(116/357), 33.44%(205/613), 34.52%(455/1 318)and 35.23%(602/1 709) respectively. The positive rate was 25.42% (586/2 305) medical workers, which was lower than that of other occupation groups with significant difference (P<0.002). Conclusion Good management of H. pylori diagnosis and treatment in mid-dle age and elderly together with popularizing knowledge of H.pylori prevention can effectively reduce H.pylori incidence.

Objective To conclude the application experience of intraoperative ultrasound added with neuronavigation in resection of intracranial gliomas.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 60 patients with intracranial gliomas,performed resection in our hospital from January 2010 to June 2013 by intraoperative ultrasound added with neuronavigation; 32 of them had high-grade gliomas and 28 low-grade ones.Ultrasonoscopy of different grade gliomas was studied.Results The accuracy of localization was 100％ in 60 patients with intracranial gliomas.Ultrasonic image of high-grade gliomas enjoyed obvious hyperechogenicity and the boundaries were clear usually; ultrasonic image of low-grade ones were slightly hyperechogenic or isoechogenic and the boundaries were indistinct usually.Inhomogeneous hyperechogenic of the ultrasonoscopy of intracranial gliomas before resection and hypoechogenic of residual cavity after resection were noted,respectively.Total removal was achieved in 50 patients,subtotal resection in 6 and partial resection in 4.Brain swelling happened postoperatively in 1 and was remitted by decompressive craniectomy.Hemiplegia happened in 2,and no death occurred postoperatively.Conclusions Intraoperative ultrasound is important to the correct of brain shift,and has clear and important value to the choice of operation approach and incising cortex.Ultrasonic image of high-grade gliomas and calcified lesions enjoys the best view.Intraoperative ultrasound added with neuronavigation can raise resection rate of intracranial gliomas.
