Objective:To analyze the efficacy and feasibility of performing a new surgical procedure, tunnel esophagogastrostomy, to perform proximal gastrectomy.Methods:The study cohort comprised 10 consecutive patients who had undergone esophagogastrostomy by the tunnel technique in Jiangsu Cancer Hospital between October 2019 and July 2022. All patients were male. Their average age was (64.2±8.1) years and body mass index (25.5±3.2) kg/m2. Nine had upper gastric body adenocarcinoma, the remaining one having signet ring cell carcinoma. TNM staging of the tumors showed that seven were Stage IA, one Stage IB, one Stage IIA, and one Stage IIIA. Briefly, tunnel esophagogastrostomy is performed as follows: After performing a proximal gastrectomy, a rectangular seromuscular flap (3.0 cm × 3.5 cm) is created. The posterior esophageal wall is sutured to the gastric wall at the orad end of the seromuscular flap 5 cm from the stump with three to four stitches. Next, the stump of the esophagus is opened, the posterior esophageal wall is sutured to the gastric mucosa and submucosa, and the anterior esophageal wall is sutured to the full layer of the stomach. Finally, the caudad end of the seromuscular flap is closed. Data on surgical safety, postoperative morbidity, and postoperative reflux esophagitis were analyzed. All enrolled patients completed endoscopic follow-up 1 year and 2 years after surgery.Results:All procedures were completed. They comprised four cases of laparoscopic assisted surgery, four of DaVinci robotic surgery, and two of open surgery. The mean operation time was 212.7±33.2 mins, mean anastomosis time (51.6±5.3) minutes, mean tunnel preparation time (20.0±3.5) minutes, and mean operative blood loss (90.0±51.6) mL. The time to first postoperative passage of flatus was (64.8±11.5) hours. The mean hospital stay after surgery was (9.2±1.7) days. There were no postoperative complications above Clavien-Dindo Grade II. The mean preoperative Reflux Disease Questionnaire score was (3.3± 0.4) before the surgery, (3.8±1.0) 1 month postoperatively, and (3.3±0.4) 12 months postoperatively. All patients underwent endoscopic follow-up; no anastomotic stenoses were found. However, one patient had Grade A reflux esophagitis 1 year after surgery and another Grade B reflux esophagitis 2 years after surgery.Conclusion:Esophagogastrostomy by the tunnel technique is a safe and feasible means of performing proximal gastrectomy.

Objective:To explore the protective efficacy of sulforaphane (SFN) in alleviating intestinal mucosal injury after resuscitation in pigs and its possible mechanism.Methods:This experiment was performed in the laboratory animal center, Zhejiang university. Using a random number table, twenty-four domestic healthy male white pigs were randomly divided into the Sham group, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) group, and SFN group, in which the Sham group had 6 pigs, and the other two groups had 9 pigs, respectively. The experimental parameters of 10 min of cardiac arrest and 6 min of CPR were chosen to establish the porcine model of CPR in the CPR and SFN groups. At 5 min after resuscitation, a dose of 2 mg/kg of SFN was infused via the femoral vein within 10 min in the SFN group. At 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, and 24 h after resuscitation, vein samples were collected, and then the levels of intestinal fatty acid binding protein (IFABP) and diamine oxidase (DAO) in serum were measured by ELISA. Subsequently, 6 pigs were chosen to be euthanized in each group, and then tissue samples were harvested from distal ileum to measure the level of cell apoptosis by TUNEL, the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) and the contents of glutathione (GSH) and malondialdehyde (MDA) by biochemical method, the contents of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE) by ELISA, the fluorescence intensity of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by immunofluorescence staining, and the expression levels of zonula occluden-1 (ZO-1), occludin, nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) by Western blot. Continuous variables were compared with one way analysis of variance among the three groups, and Bonferroni test was used for further pairwise comparison.Results:During the observation period after resuscitation, the serum levels of biomarkers of intestinal mucosal injury including IFABP and DAO were significantly higher in the CPR and SFN groups than in the Sham group (all P<0.05). However, the serum levels of IFABP at 2 h, 4 h, and 24 h after resuscitation and the serum levels of DAO at 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, and 24 h after resuscitation were significantly lower in the SFN group than in the CPR group (all P<0.05). At 24 h after resuscitation, apoptotic index was significantly increased, SOD and CAT activities and GSH contents were significantly decreased, MDA and 4-HNE contents and ROS production were significantly increased, ZO-1 and occludin expression were significantly down-regulated, and Nrf2 and HO-1 expression were significantly up-regulated in the CPR and SFN groups when compared with the Sham group (all P<0.05). However, apoptotic index was significantly decreased, SOD and CAT activities and GSH contents were significantly increased, MDA and 4-HNE contents and ROS production were significantly decreased, and ZO-1, occludin, Nrf2, and HO-1 expression were significantly up-regulated in the SFN group when compared to the CPR group (all P<0.05). Conclusion:SFN could effectively protect against intestinal mucosal injury after resuscitation in pigs, and its mechanism was possibly related to the inhibition of oxidative stress and cell apoptosis via the activation of Nrf2/HO-1 pathway.

Objective:To establish pig cardiac arrest resuscitation model, and explore the effect of automatic compression synchronous ventilation (ACSV) on cardiopulmonary resuscitation in pigs.Methods:Twelve male white pigs with body weight of (38±3) kg were divided into ACSV group and intermittent positive pressure ventilation (IPPV) group with 6 pigs in each group by random number table method. A porcine cardiac arrest and resuscitation model was prepared with ventricular fibrillation induced by alternating current release via right ventricular electrode for 6 min and compression for 8 min. Mechanical chest external compression depth 5 cm, frequency 100 times/min. The tidal volume of ACSV group was 3 mL/kg and the frequency was 100 times/min. In the IPPV group, the tidal volume was 7 mL/kg and the frequency was 10 times/min. Arterial blood was drawn before resuscitation and at 1, 4 and 7min during resuscitation for blood gas analysis. Coronary perfusion pressure (CPP), end-respiratory carbon dioxide (ETCO 2) and carotid blood flow (CBF) were monitored during resuscitation. Stroke volume (SV) and global ejection fraction (GEF) were recorded by pressure monitoring catheter before and 1, 2 and 4 h after resuscitation. Venous blood samples were collected at each time point and 24 h after resuscitation to detect cardiac troponin I (cTnI), neuron specific enolase (NSE), alamine aminotransferase (ALT), creatinine (Cr), and intestinal fatty acid binding protein (IFABP). Results:(1) During resuscitation, CPP, ETCO 2 and CBF in ACSV group were slightly higher than those in IPPV group, but the differences between groups were not statistically significant. (2) There was no significant difference in pH, PaCO 2, HCO 3- and lactic acid between the two groups during resuscitation. The PaO 2 in ACSV group was higher than that in IPPV group, and the difference was statistically significant at 4 and 7 min. (3) The success rate of resuscitation in both groups was 83.3%, and there was no significant difference in SV and GEF before and after resuscitation. (4) After resuscitation, cTnI, NSE, ALT, Cr, iFABP and other indexes in ACSV group were lower than those in IPPV group, and there were statistically significant differences in cTnI at 24 h after resuscitation, ALT at 2 h and 24 h after resuscitation, and IFABP at 4 h and 24 h after resuscitation (all P<0.05). Conclusions:This study preliminarily suggested that the novel ACSV could significantly improve the oxygen supply level during cardiopulmonary resuscitation in pigs, while keeping the compression efficiency unchanged, avoiding hyperventilation, and reducing multiple organ damage after resuscitation, which is worthy of further study.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of a novel domestic extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) mainframe in a porcine model, and to provide the basis for further clinical application.Methods:Five domestic healthy male white pigs, weighing (51±4) kg, were selected. The ECMO system was established by using a novel ECMO mainframe with imported membrane oxygenator and pipeline, and continued to run for 72 hours. ECMO parameters are as follows: veno-arterial ECMO, centrifugal pump speed 3 000-3 500 r/min, continuous infusion of heparin anticoagulation to maintain the activate clotting time (ACT) of 140-200 s. Real-time monitoring of speed, flow, pressure before pump, pressure after pump, pressure after membrane and other equipment parameters, and the equipment performance was scored. The changes of hemodynamics, blood lactic acid and blood routine were monitored dynamically. Repeated measures analysis of variance was used to compare different time points within the group. At the end of the experiment, the thrombosis in the pump head and oxygenator was observed. The animals were sacrificed to obtain the tissue samples of the main organs for gross observation and pathological injury evaluation.Results:All animals successfully ran the ECMO system for 72 hours. (1) The centrifugal pump speed should be maintained at 3 029-3 483 r/min, the flow rate was maintained at 2.24-2.60 L/min, The pressure before the pump between minus 107.57 and minus 31.86 mmHg, the pressure after the pump was 197.50-282.43 mmHg, and the pressure after the membrane was 178.71-261.5 mmHg, all were in the normal range, and there was no significant difference between different time points (all P>0.05). The performance scores of the mainframe were all 4 points or above, indicating that the use requirements were met. (2) The heart rate of the animals was 50-80 beats /min, the mean arterial pressure was 85-115 mmHg, and the lactic acid was 0.996-2.25 mmol/L, all within the normal range, and there was no significant difference between different time points (all P>0.05). The free hemoglobin was 8.98-16.39 mg/L, and the hemoglobin was 6.58-7.52 g/L, both within a reasonable range, and there was no significant difference between different time points (all P>0.05). The platelet count was 69.6-231.6×10 9/L, and showed a continuous downward trend ( P<0.05). ACT was maintained at 135-169 s, which was within the target range, and there was no significant difference between different time points ( P<0.05). (3) At the end of the experiment, there was no obvious thrombosis in the pump head and oxygenator, no obvious thrombosis or infarction in the heart, brain, liver, lung and kidney, and no obvious hemorrhage or necrosis under the microscope. Conclusions:The ECMO established by the novel domestic ECMO mainframe combined with imported membrane oxygenator and pipeline ran smoothly for 72 hours, achieving the target of effect and safety.

OBJECTIVE To screen t he active component s of Euchresta japonica against nasopharyngeal carcinoma. METHODS Main chemical components of E. japonica were selected ，and their target proteins were predicted in Swiss Target Prediction database. The target proteins of nasopharyngeal cancer were obtained with GeneCards database. Protein-protein interaction（PPI）network was established after the target of chemical components of E. japonica was intersected with the target of nasopharyngeal carcinoma ；PPI network was analyzed by using Cytoscape 3.6.1 software，and the potential active components and key targets of E. japonica against nasopharyngeal carcinoma were screened. The molecular docking technology was used to evaluate binding ability of active component-key target ；active components of E. japonica against nasopharyngeal carcinoma were screened. The anti-nasopharyngeal cancer effect of potential active components of E. japonica was verified by cell proliferation experiment. RESULTS Seven potential active components （tonkinensisol，quercetin，sophoranone，matrine，genistein，coumarin，maackiain） and 10 core targets （SRC，PIK3CA，MAPK1，MAPK3，AKT1，MAPK8，MAP2K1，PTK2，EGFR，JAK3）of E. japonica against nasopharyngeal carcinoma were screened. The molecular docking results showed that above potential active components all possessed certain anti-nasopharyngeal cancer effect. Cell proliferation activity test showed that tonkinensisol ，sophoranone and maackiain had a very significant inhibitory activity on nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells CNE- 1. CONCLUSIONS Tonkinensisol， sophoranone and maackiain might be the main active components of E. japonica against nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Model informed precision dosing (MIPD) is a new concept to guide precision dosing for individual patient by modeling and simulation based on the available information about the individual patient, medications and the disease. Compared to the empirical dosing, MIPD could improve the efficacy, safety, economics and adherence of the pharmacotherapy according to the individual's pathophysiology, genotyping and disease progression. This consensus report provides a brief account of the concept, methodology and implementation of MIPD as well as clinical decision supporting systems for MIPD. The status and future advancing of MIPD was also discussed to facilitate the appropriate application and development of MIPD in China.

With the increasing cost of drug development and clinical trials, it is of great value to make full use of all kinds of data to improve the efficiency of drug development and to provide valid information for medication guidelines. Model-based meta-analysis (MBMA) combines mathematical models with meta-analysis to integrate information from multiple sources (preclinical and clinical data, etc.) and multiple dimensions (targets/mechanisms, pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics, diseases/indications, populations, regimens, biomarkers/efficacy/safety, etc.), which not only provides decision-making for all key points of drug development, but also provides effective information for rational drug use and cost-effectiveness analysis. The classical meta-analysis requires high homogeneity of the data, while MBMA can combine and analyze the heterogeneous data of different doses, different time courses, and different populations through modeling, so as to quantify the dose-effect relationship, time-effect relationship, and the relevant impact factors, and thus the efficacy or safety features at the level of dose, time and covariable that have not been involved in previous studies. Although the modeling and simulation methods of MBMA are similar to population pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (Pop PK/PD), compared with Pop PK/PD, the advantage of MBMA is that it can make full use of literature data, which not only improves the strength of evidence, but also can answer the questions that have not been proved or can not be answered by a single study. At present, MBMA has become one of the important methods in the strategy of model-informed drug development (MIDD). This paper will focus on the application value, data analysis plan, data acquisition and processing, data analysis and reporting of MBMA, in order to provide reference for the application of MBMA in drug development and clinical practice.
