Background/Aims: The aim of this study was to analyze the chronological changes in postoperative complications in surgical ulcerative colitis patients over the past decade in China and to investigate the potential parameters that contributed to the changes. Methods: Ulcerative colitis patients who underwent surgery during 2008–2017 were retrospectively enrolled from 13 hospitals in China. Postoperative complications were compared among different operation years. Risk factors for complications were identified by logistic regression analysis. Results: A total of 446 surgical ulcerative colitis patients were analyzed. Fewer short-term complications (24.8% vs. 41.0%, P=0.001) and more laparoscopic surgeries (66.4% vs. 25.0%, P<0.001) were found among patients who received surgery during 2014–2017 than 2008–2013. Logistic regression suggested that independent protective factors against short-term complications were a higher preoperative body mass index (odds ratio [OR], 0.870; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.785–0.964; P=0.008), laparoscopic surgery (OR, 0.391; 95% CI, 0.217–0.705; P=0.002) and elective surgery (OR, 0.213; 95% CI, 0.067–0.675; P=0.009). The chronological decrease in short-term complications was associated with an increase in laparoscopic surgery. Conclusions Our data revealed a downward trend of short-term postoperative complications among surgical ulcerative colitis patients in China during the past decade, which may be due to the promotion of minimally invasive techniques among Chinese surgeons.

Objective:To explore the risk factors and prognosis of lymph node metastasis and residual cancer following additional surgery after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in early gastric cancer (EGC).Methods:Retrospective analysis was performed on the data of 42 patients with EGC who received additional surgery after ESD in General Surgery Department of Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from August 2012 to August 2019, including 35 males and 7 females, with a male to female ratio of 5∶1 and an average age of 62 (32 to 82 years old). The primary outcomes were lymph node metastasis risk and residual cancer risk, while the secondary outcomes were 3-year and 5-year overall survival. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the risk factors of lymph node metastasis and residual cancer, and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was performed.Results:Multivariate analysis showed that gender ( OR: 45.3, 95% CI: 3.762-546.250, P=0.003), invasion depth ( OR: 3.965, 95% CI: 1.1019-15.432, P=0.047) and histological type ( OR: 9.455, 95% CI: 0.946-94.482, P=0.049) were independent risk factors for lymph node metastasis of early gastric cancer. The type of tumor invasion ( OR: 10.675, 95% CI: 1.840-61.932, P=0.008) and the horizontal resection margin ( OR: 9.341, 95% CI: 1.47-59.346, P=0.018) were independent risk factors affecting the occurrence of residual cancer. Stratified analysis showed that in men, the tumor invaded to T 1b-SM1, and the pathological type was undifferentiated; and in women, the tumor invaded to T 1b-SM2, regardless of the pathological type, lymph node metastasis occurred. When the horizontal margin was positive, regardless of the infiltration pattern; and the infiltration pattern is INF-c, regardless of the horizontal margin, residual cancer occurred. Survival analysis showed that the 3-year (100% vs 60%, P< 0.001) and 5-year overall survival rate (100% vs 25%, P< 0.001) were better than those with lymph node metastasis.The 3-year (100% vs 80%) and 5-year overall survival rates (100% vs 62.5%) of patients without residual cancer were significantly better than those with residual cancer, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.001). Conclusions:Gender, invasion depth and histological type are independent risk factors for lymph node metastasis of early gastric cancer, and tumor invasion form and horizontal incision margin are independent risk factors for the appearance of residual cancer. The long-term survival rate of patients with early gastric cancer without lymph node metastasis and residual cancer was significantly better than that of patients with lymph node metastasis and residual cancer. Therefore, ESD is one of the safe and effective treatment methods for patients with early gastric cancer, but some patients need additional surgery according to the specific situation in order to improve the prognosis.

Pancreaticoduodenectomy is one of the most difficult abdominal operations, and the difficulty in resection and complicated digestive tract reconstruction have brought great challenges for surgeons. At present, laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy has been widely used in clinical practice, and compared with traditional 2D laparoscopy, 3D laparoscopy has the features of high magnification, high definition, and three-dimensional vision, which enables surgeons to see more clearly and operate more accurately, and thus it has great potential to be widely used in pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Objective:To examine the surgical approach, practical cognition as well as clinical effect of the orthotopic resection for laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy(OLPD).Methods:From March 2019 to December 2019, 32 cases were treated with laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy (LPD) in a novel approach without mobilization of pancreatoduodenum in Pancreas Center of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine.There were 16 male patients and 16 female patients.The mean age was (64.8±9.5) years old.Body mass index was 14.9 to 31.0 kg/m 2.All patients were diagnosed as ampullary or pancreatic head tumors and were not unresectable cases.In the surgical strategy, Kocher′s dissociation, turning and pulling of the pancreaticoduodenal region, was not performed first.Anatomy in situ, separation of vessels which enter and exit from pancreas, separation of lymphatics and isolation of tumors were carried out in priority through the combined middle and left posterior approaches.Finally, the pancreatic head and duodenum region was mobilized and the entire resection of pancreas in situ was carried out.Digestive tract reconstruction was performed through Child method. Results:Postoperative pathology showed that 27 cases were pancreatic or ampullary malignant tumors and five cases were benign tumors among 32 patients.The operative time was (357.3±64.3) minutes.The diameter of pancreatic ducts was (3.0±1.0) mm. The pancreas of 20 cases (62.5%) were soft. Five patients suffered from pancreatic fistula (Grade B) and one patient suffered from intra-abdominal hemorrhage postoperatively.No other complications like pancreatic fistula (Grade C) or biliary fistula delayed gastric emptying or mortality were encountered.The postoperative hospital day was (13.7±3.6) days.Conclusions:Combining the multi-angle of the laparoscopic approaches and excising the pancreaticoduodenal specimen in situ, OLPD is a kind of surgical method which can realize the concept of no touch tumor surgery.Patients who undergo the OLPD can receive better treatments and results.

Objective To explore the relationship between serum retinol binding protein 4 and serum Lipasin levels and vascular complications in gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM).Methods From Jan.2016 to Jan.2018,80 pregnant women with gestational diabetes diagnosed as GDM in Wenzhou Central Hospital of Zhejiang Province were selected as the study group.They were divided into two groups according to whether they had vascular lesions.Group A included patients with gestational diabetes mellitus complicated with vascular complications and group B included patients without vascular complications.Forty healthy pregnant women were selected as the control group(group C).The levels of fasting plasma glucose (FPG),fasting serum insulin (FINS),homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR),serum retinol binding protein 4 (RBP4) and serum Lipasin were compared among three groups of pregnant women.The vascular complications of GDM were analyzed.Results The levels of FPG,FINS and HOMA-IR in gestational diabetes mellitus pregnant women were higher than those in healthy pregnant women (P＜0.05),and those in group A were higher than those in group B (P＜0.05).The levels of RBP4 and Lipasin in serum of pregnant women with GDM were higher than those of healthy pregnant women (P＜0.05),and those of group A were higher than those of group B (P＜0.05).Spearman univariate correlation analysis showed that serum RBP4 levels were positively correlated with FPG and FINS(P＜0.05),and serum Lipasin levels were positively correlated with FPG and FINS (P＜0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that the levels of FPG,FINS,RBP4 and Lipasin increased,which were independent risk factors for diabetic retinopathy (P＜0.05).Conclusion In GDM with vascular complications,the serum RBP4 and Lipasin levels are higher,which are independent risk factors for vascular complications in GDM,and may participate in the occurrence and development of vascular complications in gestational diabetes mellitus.

Objective To explore the effect of neostigmine in treatment of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) combined with intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH).Methods 42 patients diagnosed as SAP combined with IAH and meeting standard were collected from Aug.2012 to Jul.2016 in our hospital.They were randomly divided into two groups:observation group and the control group.General information of the two groups was comparable.Patients of the control group received conventional treatment methods such as fasting,gastrointestinal decompression,nutritional support,antispasmodic,analgesia,intravenous infusion of omeprazole and octreotide.Patients of the observation group received intramuscular injection of neostigmine methylsulfate on the basis of the control group for seven days.The intra-abdominal pressure,recovery time of bowel sounds,the first exhaust and defecation time,remission time of abdominal distention,modified Marshall score,APACHE-Ⅱ score,SIRS score,total hospitalization time and total hospitalization expenses,MODS rate,operation rate and mortality of the two groups were recorded during the treatment.Results The intra-abdominal pressure of the observation group was (14.25±1.03) mmHg,(13.52 ±1.23) mmHg,(12.73±1.14)mmHg respectively,lower than that of the control group (15.14± 1.12) mmHg,(14.60± 1.11) mmHg,(13.84±1.08) mmHg at the 3rd,4th,and 5th day after treat ment (P＜0.05).For the observation group,the recovery time of bowel sounds was (7.24±1.35) d,the first exhaust and defecation time was (11.33±1.51) d,(8.36±1.63) d,remission time of abdominal distention was (13.62±2.26) d,lower than those of the control group ((9.56±1.17)d,(13.42±1.26)d,(10.45±1.54)d,(16.75±3.05)d) (P＜0.05).The recovery time of bowel sounds,the first exhaust and defecation time,remission time of abdominal distention of the observation group were lower than those of the control group (P＜0.05).The modified Marshall score,APACHE-]Ⅱ score,SIRS score of the two groups had no significant difference (P＞0.05).The total hospitalizationtime and total hospitalization expenses of the two groups had no significant difference (P＞0.05).MODS rate,operation rate and mortality of the two groups had no significant difference (P＞0.05).Conclusions Neostigmine can significantly reduce intra-abdominal pressure of patients suffering from SAP combined with IAH,improve the symptoms of paralytic ileus,promoting exhaust and defecation.However,it has limited effects on prognosis of patients suffering from SAP combined with IAH.

OBJECTIVETo demonstrate the clinical applicability of three-dimensional CT angiography by evaluating the anatomic features and variation of inferior mesenteric artery(IMA) and left colic artery(LCA) in order to provide reference to vessel ligation strategy in laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery.

METHODSClinical and image data of 123 patients receiving abdominal multislice CT at The Sixth Affiliated Hospital from 2014 to 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. The images were 3D-reconstructed with computer 3D CT angiography and arterial enhancement phase images were chosen for analysis. Linear distances from IMA root to abdominal aortic bifurcation and from LCA at IMA root level to IMA root were measured. Branch types of IMA, coursing pattern of LCA, and association between LCA and inferior mesenteric vein (IMV) site were summarized.

RESULTSOf 123 cases, 80 were males and 43 were females, mean age was (46.8±16.6) years, body weight was (57.7±10.4) kg, and BMI was (21.3±3.6) kg/m. The average distance from IMA root to abdominal aortic bifurcation was (42.5±7.9) mm, and this distance was closely associated with body weight (OR=4.771, 95%CI: 1.398 to 16.283, P=0.013). Longer distance tended to appear in the heavier patients. LCA and sigmoid artery (SA) originating from same single IMA was found in 61(49.6%) cases; LCA and SA forking at same point in 35(28.5%) cases; LCA and SA coursing together and forking afterwards in 24(19.5%) cases, and LCA disappearing in 3(2.4%) cases. In 71(57.7%) patients, LCA ascended medial to the lateral border of left kidney, while in 16(13.0%) patients, LCA arranged below the inferior border of left kidney. When the LCA site was higher and the distance from LCA to IMA root was closer [distance from LCA to IMA root level was (24.2±9.9) mm, (30.0±15.2) mm and (66.6±12.3) mm, F=83.2, P<0.001]. At the level of IMA root, LCA located medial to IMV in 21(17.1%) cases, located just lateral to IMV in 54(43.9%) cases, and located lateral and ascended far away from IMV in 48(39.0%) cases.

CONCLUSION3D-CT angiography is non-invasive, efficient and accurate in evaluating coursing features and variation of IMA and its branches, which can provide important reference to the surgeons, promising laparoscopic surgery smooth and safe.

To screen the illegal substances in fishery inputs,we established the database including the precursor and the daughter ions for these possible components by the quadrupole/orbit-trap mass spectrometer,and the retention time of each drug on the same chromatographic column.And then,the extracted and diluted samples were analyzed and the components in the real samples were identified under the same conditions.Chromatographic analysis was performed on an Accucore RP-MS column (100 mm × 2.1 mm,2.6 μm) using gradient elution with 0.1％ formic acid in water and 0.1％ formic acid in acetonitrile as mobile phase.Elutes were ionized through heatable electrospray ionization (HESI) in both positive and negative mode simultaneously.Data acquisition was conducted by Full-scan ddMS2 (TopN) mode,in which the full mass profile for a continuous precursor ion injection and the fragments of each high abundant precursor of targeted were acquired with excellent time and mass resolution.Screening was carried out through comparison of the information of real samples with that of standards in the database,which were processed by software (Tracefinder).The Quantification of each component was analyzed based on the precursor ion chromatography acquired by orbit-trap mass spectroscopy,which showed a good linearity between 0.01-1 μg/mL,with R＞0.98.The method was validated by checking its minimum screening concentration (0.5 mg/L for drugs and 5 mg/L for feedstuffs) and evaluating the recovery after addition of the standard mixture in real samples (＞50％,under the addition of 10 and 100 mg/kg).The results for 68 practical samples demonstrated the effective performance of this method for screening with high-throughput,rapidness and acceptable minimum screening concentration and accuracy,in which 15 of 29 fishery drug samples were screened out for positive components that were not indicated in their labels.
