Objective:To analyze the influencing factors of achieving textbook outcome (TO) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, and to construct a nomograph model to explore its predictive value in TO.Methods:The clinical data of 205 patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma treated by PD in Henan University People's Hospital from January 2019 to December 2022 were analyzed retrospectively, including 88 males and 117 females with the age of (61.3±9.8) years old. Patients were divided into two groups based on whether they achieved TO after surgery: TO group ( n=113) and non-TO group ( n=92). Clinical data such as age, gender, intraoperative blood loss, operation time, blood transfusion volume, pancreatic CT value, and tumor differentiation degree were collected. Logistic regression analysis screened the influencing factors of PD postoperative TO and built a nomogram model. The performance of the nomogram model was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration diagram, and decision curve analysis. Results:Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the higher the degree of tumor differentiation was in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (high differentiation to medium differentiation: OR=7.20, 95% CI: 1.20-43.28; high differentiation to low differentiation: OR=16.55, 95% CI: 2.01-136.11), CT value>38.45 Hu ( OR=0.29, 95% CI: 0.13-0.65), blood transfusion volume ≤350 ml ( OR=8.05, 95% CI: 2.94-22.01) and operative time ≤407.5 min ( OR=10.88, 95% CI: 3.90-30.41), the easier it was to achieve TO after PD (all P<0.05). Based on the above influencing factors, a nomogram model of the postoperative effect of PD on TO was established, and the consistency index of this column graph model was 0.863 (95% CI: 0.816-0.911). The sensitivity and specificity of ROC curve were 0.804 and 0.752, respectively. The calibration diagram showed that the calibration curve fits well with the ideal curve, and the decision curve showed that the model had obvious positive net benefit. Conclusion:The degree of tumor differentiation, CT value, blood transfusion volume, and operation time are independent influencing factors for the achievement of TO after PD in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, and the nomogram model constructed based on which has good predictive performance for TO.

Objective:To analyze the influencing factors of not achieving textbook outcome (TO) after laparoscopic radical surgery in patients with malignant pancreatic body and tail tumor, and to establish and evaluate a nomogram for predicting the failure to achieve TO.Methods:The clinical data of 111 patients with malignant pancreatic body and tail tumors undergoing laparoscopic radical surgery in the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery in Henan Provincial People's Hospital from January 2020 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, including 44 males and 67 females, aged (53.8±14.7) years. All patients were staged TNM I to II, including pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma ( n=102, 91.9%), pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor ( n=5, 4.5%), and pancreatic intraductal papillary mucinous tumors ( n=4, 3.6%). The patients were randomly divided into a training set ( n=78) and a test set ( n=33) at a ratio of 7∶3. The 78 patients in the training set were further divided into TO group ( n=28) and control group ( n=50, not achieving TO). Based on the univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis of training set, the influencing factors of failure to achieve TO after laparoscopic radical surgery in patients with pancreatic body and tail tumor were analyzed. A nomogram based on the multi-factors were established to predict the failure to achieve TO. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration curve, decision curve analysis (DCA) were utilized to evaluate the nomogram. Results:There were significant differences in tumor diameter, positive lymph nodes, operation time and CT value of pancreas between the TO and control groups (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that tumor diameter >4 cm ( OR=9.673, 95% CI: 2.198-42.579), positive lymph node ( OR=5.385, 95% CI: 1.514-19.154), pancreatic CT value ( OR=0.594, 95% CI: 0.392-0.902) were the influencing factors for patients who did not achieve TO (all P<0.05). Based on the results of multiple factors, a nomogram was established to predict the failure to achieve TO after laparoscopic radical surgery. The area under the ROC curve of the nomogram was 0.849 (95% CI: 0.757-0.940) and 0.873 (95% CI: 0.730-1.000) in the training and test sets, respectively. The calibration curve was close to the ideal curve and the predicted results of the nomogram matched well with the actual results. The DCA showed that the nomogram has obvious positive net benefit. Conclusion:The nomogram constructed with tumor diameter > 4 cm, positive lymph nodes and CT value of pancreas for prediction of the patients with pancreatic body and tail malignant tumor after laparoscopic radical surgery did not achieve TO has good performance.

Objective:To compare the therapeutic efficacy of laparoscopic versus open hepatectomy based on three-dimensional image reconstruction in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in the central region of liver.Methods:Clinical data of 118 patients with HCC located in the central region of liver undergoing hepatectomy in the People's Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2020 to December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed, including 85 males and 33 females, aged (57.5±8.9) years old. According to surgical approach, patients were divided into two groups: the open surgery group ( n=66) and laparoscopic surgery group ( n=52). All patients underwent three-dimensional image reconstruction preoperatively to determine the tumor location and its relationship with the hepatic vessels. The operative duration, intraoperative blood loss, incidence of postoperative complications, postoperative hospital stay, and prognosis were compared between the groups. Results:Compared to open surgery, patients in laparoscopic group were younger [(55±9) years old vs. (59±8) years old], and experienced a longer operative time [212.5 (152.5, 262.3) min vs. 161.5 (135.8, 210.0) min] and a shorter postoperative hospital stay [11.0(9.0, 13.0) d vs. 13.0(11.0, 15.3) d] (all P<0.05). Postoperative pathology indicated that R0 resection was achieved in both groups. The incidence of postoperative complications were comparable between the two groups [34.6% (18/52) vs. 39.4% (26/66), χ2=0.28, P=0.594]. The 1-year and 3-year recurrence-free survivals were 69.7% and 53.0% in laparoscopic group, similar to those in open group (71.2% and 53.8%, respetctively, P=0.953). Conclusion:Laparoscopic hepatectomy based on three-dimensional image reconstruction is safe and feasible for HCC in central region in terms of clinical prognosis. Laparoscopic surgery is also associated with a shorter postoperative hospital stay.

Objective:To explore the application of optical coherence tomography (OCT) in the interventional diagnosis and treatment of intermediate coronary disease.Methods:Patients were enrolled during January 2017 to January 2019, in the Department of Cardiology, the Ninth People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine.The patient whose diagnosis was confirmed as intermediate coronary artery lesion by coronary angiography then underwent coronary OCT examination.The general information, disease history, drug use, biochemical indicators and OCT imaging indicators were collected.Results:(1)A total of 75 borderline lesions were detected in 69 patients with coronary heart disease, including 52 cases of left anterior descending artery (LAD) (75.4%), 4 cases of left circumflex artery (5.8%, 4/69), and 19 cases (27.5%, 19/69) of right coronary artery (RCA). (2) According to the analysis of the plaque characteristics of borderline lesions OCT, 7 cases were accompanied with thrombosis, 6 cases with plaque rupture, 25 cases with thin fiber cap lipid plaque, 49 cases with macrophages, 35 cases with microvascular, 35 cases with cholesterol crystallization, 3 cases with ulcer and 6 cases with intimal dissection.(3)The median of the minimum lumen area (MLA) determined by OCT was 2.9 mm 2.In the MLA<2.9 mm 2 group, C-reactive protein (CRP) ((2.92±2.44) mg/L vs.(1.98±1.30) mg/L, P=0.045), total cholesterol (TC) ((4.13±0.78) mmol/L vs.(3.74±0.75) mmol/L, P=0.041), low density lipoprotein cholesterol ((2.77±0.83) mmol/L vs.(2.22±0.78) mmol/L, P=0.007), small and dense LDL ((1.02±0.44) mmol/L vs.(0.80±0.34) mmol/L, P=0.024), lipoprotein a ((1.16±0.17) mg/L vs.(0.95±0.09) mg/L, P=0.042) were significantly higher than those in MLA≥2.9 mm 2 group.(4). According to the interventional strategy, patients were divided into two groups: percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) group (N=16) and non-PCI group (N=59). The area stenosis (AS%) ((68.58±4.90)% vs.(63.10±7.09)%, P=0.001), diameter stenosis (DS%) ((65.65±6.91)% vs.(60.77±8.41)%, P=0.024), lipid plaque curvature ((245.3±41.0)° vs.(189.8±99.6)°, P=0.001), lipid plaque length ((19.11±6.40) mm vs.(14.72±9.30) mm, P=0.035) were deteriorated significantly in the PCI group than those in non-PCI group, the differences were all of them were statistically significant.(5)The incidence of 1-year major cardiovascular adverse events (MACE) was 6.25% in Oct guided PCI group and 5.08% in patients without PCI.There was no significant difference between the two groups ( P=0.317). Conclusion:According to the OCT assessment in the intermediate coronary lesions, it is found that the smaller the luminal area, the higher the serum LDL cholesterol level.More Interventional therapy were performed in the vulnerable plaques with large lipid cores.Decision-making for intermediate lesion was highly depended on the plaque tissue characteristics, rather than just MLA size.

Objective :To analyze correlation among fasting (FBL) and postprandial blood lipids (PBL) ,blood lipid fluctuation (absolute value of PBL‐FBL) and severity of coronary artery disease .Methods :Cross‐sectional study was performed among 264 patients undergoing coronary angiography (CAG) in our hospital .According to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or not based on CAG results ,patients were divided into plaque group (n＝128) and PCI group (n＝136).Gensini score was used to assess severity of coronary artery disease .Blood lipid levels and its fluctu‐ation were compared between two groups .Correlation among blood lipid levels ,blood lipid fluctuation and severity of coronary artery disease were analyzed .Results :Compared with plaque group ,there were significant rise in per‐centages of men and smokers ,waist circumference ,levels of postprandial‐fasting (P‐F ) serum LDL‐C (ΔLDL‐C ) and P‐F plasma apolipoprotein B (ΔApoB ) , and significant reduction in plasma level of P‐F apolipoprotein A1 (ΔApoA1) in PCI group , P＜0. 05 or ＜ 0. 01. Pearson correlation analysis indicated that serum fasting and post‐prandial HDL‐C levels ,plasma fasting and postprandial levels of ApoA1 and ΔApoA1 were significant inversely cor‐related with Gensini score ( r＝ －0. 130～ －0.218 , P＜0. 05 or ＜0. 01) ,and levels of plasma fasting lipoprotein a (Lp (a)) ,serum fasting and postprandial levels of free fatty acid (FFA) ,serum P‐F FFA (Δ FFA) were significant positively correlated with Gensini score ( r＝0. 139－0. 176 , P＜0.05 or ＜0.01).Multifactor linear regression anal‐ysis indicated that postprandial serum HDL‐C was protective factor for Gensini score (B＝ －22.274 , P＝0.002 ) , while postprandial serum FFA ,Δ FFA ,waist circumference and hyperlipidemia history were its influencing factors (B＝0. 388～24. 135 , P＜0. 05 or ＜0.01).Conclusion :Measurements of fasting and postprandial blood lipid levels and their fluctuation contribute to more comprehensively and objectively assessing blood lipid levels and severity of coronary disease in patients with coronary artery disease .
