Objective:To develop a robotic digestive endoscope system (RDES) and to evaluate its feasibility, safety and control performance by experiments.Methods:The RDES was designed based on the master-slave control system, which consisted of 3 parts: the integrated endoscope, including a knob and button robotic control system integrated with a gastroscope; the robotic mechanical arm system, including the base and arm, as well as the endoscopic advance-retreat control device (force-feedback function was designed) and the endoscopic axial rotation control device; the control console, including a master manipulator and an image monitor. The operator sit far away from the endoscope and controlled the master manipulator to bend the end of the endoscope and to control advance, retract and rotation of the endoscope. The air supply, water supply, suction, figure fixing and motion scaling switching was realized by pressing buttons on the master manipulator. In the endoscopy experiments performed on live pigs, 5 physicians each were in the beginner and advanced groups. Each operator operated RDES and traditional endoscope (2 weeks interval) to perform porcine gastroscopy 6 times, comparing the examination time. In the experiment of endoscopic circle drawing on the inner wall of the simulated stomach model, each operator in the two groups operated RDES 1∶1 motion scaling, 5∶1 motion scaling and ordinary endoscope to complete endoscopic circle drawing 6 times, comparing the completion time, accuracy (i.e. trajectory deviation) and workload.Results:RDES was operated normally with good force feedback function. All porcine in vivo gastroscopies were successful, without mucosal injury, bleeding or perforation. In beginner and advanced groups, the examination time of both RDES and ordinary endoscopy tended to decrease as the number of operations increased, but the decrease in time was greater for operating RDES than for operating ordinary endoscope (beginner group P=0.033; advanced group P=0.023). In the beginner group, the operators operating RDES with 1∶1 motion scaling or 5∶1 motion scaling to complete endoscopic circle drawing had shorter completion time [1.68 (1.40, 2.17) min, 1.73 (1.47, 2.37) min VS 4.13 (2.27, 5.16) min, H=32.506, P<0.001], better trajectory deviation (0.50±0.11 mm, 0.46±0.11 mm VS 0.82±0.26 mm, F=38.999, P<0.001], and less workload [42.00 (30.00, 50.33) points, 43.33 (35.33, 54.00) points VS 52.67 (48.67, 63.33) points, H=20.056, P<0.001] than operating ordinary endoscope. In the advanced group, the operators operating RDES with 1∶1 or 5∶1 motion scaling to complete endoscopic circle drawing had longer completion time than operating ordinary endoscope [1.72 (1.37, 2.53) min, 1.57 (1.25, 2.58) min VS 1.15 (0.86, 1.58) min, H=13.233, P=0.001], but trajectory deviation [0.47 (0.13, 0.57) mm, 0.44 (0.39, 0.58) mm VS 0.52 (0.42, 0.59) mm, H=3.202, P=0.202] and workload (44.62±21.77 points, 41.24±12.57 points VS 44.71±17.92 points, F=0.369, P=0.693) were not different from those of the ordinary endoscope. Conclusion:The RDES enables remote control, greatly reducing the endoscopists' workload. Additionally, it gives full play to the cooperative motion function of the large and small endoscopic knobs, making the control more flexible. Finally, it increases motion scaling switching function to make the control of endoscope more flexible and more accurate. It is also easy for beginners to learn and master, and can shorten the training period. So it can provide the possibility of remote endoscopic control and fully automated robotic endoscope.

In the era of informatization, virtual teaching labs have emerged as a pivotal exploration in the construction of new teaching organizations at the primary level. Virtual labs of teaching research and reform require faculty members to collaboratively conduct teaching reform research and practice, thereby fostering new paradigms and achievements for teaching reforms. It serves as a vital foundation for supporting comprehensive reforms in curriculum teaching and specialty construction. This paper delves into the logical framework of virtual teaching research and reform labs from four dimensions (value orientation, construction principles, organizational structure, and operational safeguards), and elaborates on lab construction pathways from four aspects (technological platforms, behavioral relationships, knowledge management, and spiritual culture). Taking virtual teaching labs for medical education as an example, the paper summarizes practical experience in the innovative exploration of reform-oriented virtual teaching labs. Finally, we discuss the most constraining factors in the current construction of virtual teaching labs, and propose that research on virtual teaching labs should pay more attention to solving practical problems in major and curriculum reforms to promote the integration of medical education and practice, ultimately contributing to the realization of the Healthy China initiative.

Objective:To assess the effect of intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) on in-hospital mortality in patients with cardiac arrest undergoing extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR).Methods:A retrospective study was performed on 696 patients with intra-hospital cardiac arrest undergoing ECPR from Samsung Medical Center in Korea between January 2004 and December 2013. According to whether IABP was used, the patients were divided into ECPR group and ECPR+IABP group. Cox regression and propensity score matching (PSM) were used to examine the correlation between IABP usage and in-hospital mortality, and standardized mean difference ( SMD) was used to check the degree of PSM. Survival analysis of in-hospital mortality was performed by the Kaplan-Meier method, and further analyzed by the Log-Rank test. Using the propensity score as weights, multiple regression model and inverse probability weighting (IPW) model were used for sensitivity analysis. In-hospital mortality, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) withdrawal success rate and neurological function prognosis were compared between the two groups. Results:A total of 199 patients with cardiac arrest undergoing ECPR were included, including 120 males and 79 females, and the average age was (60.0±16.8) years. Thirty-one patients (15.6%) were treated with ECPR and IABP, and 168 patients (84.4%) only received ECPR. The total hospitalized mortality was 68.8% (137/199). The 1 : 1 nearest neighbor matching algorithm was performed with the 0.2 caliper value. The following variables were selected to generate propensity scores, including age, gender, race, marital status, insurance, admission type, service unit, heart rate, mean arterial pressure, respiratory rate, pulse oxygen saturation, white blood cell count. After the propensity score matching, 24 pairs of patients were successfully matched, with the average age of (63.0±12.8) years, including 31 males and 17 females. The in-hospital mortality was 72.6% (122/168) and 48.4% (15/31) in the ECPR group and the ECPR+IABP group [hazard ratio ( HR) = 0.48, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 0.28-0.82, P = 0.007]. Multiple regression model, adjusted propensity score, PSM and IPW model showed that the in-hospital mortality in the ECPR+IABP group was significantly lower compared with the ECPR group ( HR = 0.44, 0.50, 0.16 and 0.49, respectively, 95% CI were 0.24-0.79, 0.28-0.91, 0.06-0.39 and 0.31-0.77, all P < 0.05). The combined application of IABP could improve the ECMO withdrawal success rate [odds ratio ( OR) = 8.95, 95% CI was 2.72-29.38, P < 0.001] and neurological prognosis ( OR = 4.06, 95% CI was 1.33-12.40, P = 0.014) in adult cardiac arrest patients. Conclusion:In patients with cardiac arrest using ECPR, the combination of IABP was independently associated with lower in-hospital mortality, higher ECMO withdrawal success rate and better neurological prognosis.

From June 2017 to September 2019, 5 patients who were diagnosed as having benign severe pyloric stenosis underwent fully covered stent placement using a new stenting method at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University. Five patients were performed successfully without serious complications. Postoperative barium meal radiograph revealed that the stents were in good location and the acontrast agent passed smoothly. The liquid diet was commenced 1-3 days after surgery. No vomiting, abdominal pain and diarrhea occurred. During the follow-up, all the patients had improved weight and nutritional status. Four patients underwent stent removal 3-4 months postoperatively. One patient was found that the stent had migrated to stomach 3 months after discharge. After removing the stent, balloon dilation and mucosal resection was performed for the mild pyloric stenosis. All 5 patients had an additional follow-up of 3 months, and no symptoms and restenosis occured. These preliminary results showed that the new stenting method of fully covered stent placement is feasible, safe and effective in the treatment of benign pyloric stenosis.

Objective:To study the safety and effectiveness of endoscopic full-thickness resection(EFR) in the treatment of large gastric stromal tumors with diameter of 5-7 cm.Methods:Data of 36 patients with large gastric stromal tumors (5-7 cm) who received EFR or surgery (including laparoscopic and open surgery) in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University and confirmed by postoperative histopathology from January 2017 to October 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into endoscopic group (9 cases) and surgical group (27 cases) according to different resection methods. The perioperative indicators and the total incidence of complications in the two groups were compared.Results:In terms of perioperative indicators, the median operation time of the endoscopic group was significantly longer than that of the surgical group (4.0 hours VS 2.0 hours, P<0.01), and the postoperative fasting time (4.55±0.88 days VS 6.22±2.24 days, t=-2.15, P=0.03) and hospital stay (6.88±1.26 days VS 10.03±2.90 days, t=-3.13, P<0.01) were significantly shorter than those of the surgical group. The median visual analogue scores (VAS) of abdominal pain of the endoscopic group on the first postoperative day (3 VS 6, P<0.01)and the third postoperative day (1 VS 3, P<0.01) were significantly lower than those of the surgical group. The hospitalization cost was significantly less than that of the surgical group (55±14.7 thousand yuan VS 73±24.3 thousand yuan, t=-2.11, P=0.04). In term of the total incidence of complications, the endoscopic group was 11.1% (1/9), which was higher than that of the surgical group [7.4% (2/27)], but there was no statistically significant difference( P=1.00). Conclusion:EFR is safe and effective in the treatment of large gastric stromal tumors (5-7 cm), and has the advantages of less invasiveness, rapid postoperative recovery, and lower hospitalization cost. But how to shorten the operation time is an urgent problem to be solved.
