Objective To evaluate the creditability of warning message of white differential count (WDF) and white precursor cell (WPC) channels in Sysmex XN-3000 hematology analyzer,and verify its optimal threshold and adjust the alarm threshold.Methods A total of 61 EDTA-K2 anticoagulated blood samples without abnormal warning and 521 EDTA-K2 anticoagulated blood samples with abnormal warning were simultaneously detected in WDF and WPC channels.After the smear specimens of blood sample were automatically prepared by the instrument,microscopic examinations were performed manually.The results of microscopic examination were considered as the gold standard to determine the reliability of the warning message from the instrument and verify the reasonability of initial warning threshold value provided by the manufacture.Consequently,the threshold values were adjusted based on the requirements in practical work.Results The warning messages of atypical lymphocytes and blasts/abnormal lymphocytes in WDF channel were higher sensitive (95.8％ and 100％ respectively),but lower specific (34.7％ and 23.5％ respectively) compared with microscopic examination.The warning messages of atypical lymphocyte,blasts and abnormal lymphocytes in WPC channel were lower sensitive (81.3％,66.7％,and 76.5％ respectively) but higher specific (61.9％,55.5％ and 88.3 ％ respectively) compared with microscopic examination.According to the ROC curve analysis,the prognostic values of warning message of microscopic examination were of medium level,except the warning message for abnormal lymphocytes was poor compared with WPC channel.Combining the practical retest rules,the optimal critical threshold values of atypical lymphocytes and blasts/Abn lymph in WDF channel were adjusted as 120,and they were adjusted as 140 in WPC channel.Conclusion The high sensitive WDF channel should first be used for screening,and the detectable warning message could be retested by using high specific WPC channel to shorten the turnaround time of the test results and improve the working efficiency.The initial critical warning threshold provided by the manufacture should be verified and adjusted to the optimum critical threshold in order to ensure the accuracy of test results.

Objective To analyze the difference of serum levels of anti-Mullenan hormone (AMH) in chil-dren with different ages and different types of cryptorchidism,and to explore its role in the evaluation of tes-ticular development.Methods 60 children with simple cryptorchidism were selected as case group and 52 healthy children were selected as control group.The levels of serum AMH in two groups of children were measured and the differences were compared.Results (1)The level of AMH in the case group was lower than that in control group (P < 0.05),and there was no statistical significance between two subgroups of >6 to 11 years old children with cryptorchidism and healthy children (P>0.05).(2)The level of AMH in bi-lateral cryptorchidism group was lower than that in unilateral cryptorchidism group (P<0.05),and there was no significant difference between two subgroups of >6 to 11 years old children with bilateral cryptorchidism and unilateral cryptorchidism (P>0.05).(3)The level of AMH in the high level cryptorchidism group was lower than that of the low level cryptorchidism group (P<0.05),and there was no statistical difference be-tween between two subgroups of 3~11 year old children with cryptorchidism and low level cryptorchidism (P>0.05).(4)AMH level was negatively correlated with age,and positively correlated with testicular devel-opment.Conclusion AMH can be used as an important indicator of testicular development in children with cryptorchidism.

OBJECTIVETo systematically assess the safety and efficacy of hand-assisted laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (HALG) versus open distal gastrectomy (ODG) for gastric cancer.

METHODSChinese or English literature regarding comparison of HALG and ODG were collected by searching in databases (such as PubMed, Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang database) between January 1996 and September 2016. The data of operative time, incision length, blood loss, number of harvested lymph nodes, time to flatus, hospital stay, postoperative complication morbidity and long-term outcomes were compared between the two procedures. Then funnel plot was used to evaluate publication bias and sensitivity analysis was used to evaluate the stability of the results. All these data analyses were performed using the Meta for or Meta package of R version 3.3.1.

RESULTSA total of 7 studies with 835 patients (323 cases in HALG group and 512 cases in ODG group) were included. Compared with ODG, HALG had a longer operative time (WMD=28.93 minutes, 95%CI=9.59 to 48.28, Z=2.93, P=0.000), a shorter incision length (WMD=-10.31 cm, 95%CI=-14.01 to -6.62, Z=-5.47, P=0.000), less blood loss (WMD=-140.08 ml, 95%CI=-215.07 to -65.09, Z=-3.66, P=0.000), faster gastrointestinal recovery (WMD=-1.23 days, 95%CI=-1.89 to -0.56, Z=-3.62, P=0.000), shorter postoperative hospital stay (WMD=-3.24 days, 95%CI=-5.47 to -1.02, Z=-2.85, P=0.000). In subgroup analysis, 3 studies published before 2013 vs. 4 studies published afterwards, the number of harvested lymph nodes (WMD=-0.78, 95%CI=-2.05 to 0.50, Z=-1.19, P=0.235) and postoperative complication morbidity (RR=1.02, 95%CI=0.43 to 2.44, Z=0.05, P=0.961) did not differ significantly between two groups. Compared with ODG, the RR(95%CI) of ileus of HALG was 0.43 (0.07 to 2.82), but the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.383). One study reported the 5-year overall survival rates of HALG and ODG were 81.0% vs 67.5%, and the tumor recurrence rates were 7.1% vs 22%, respectively, but the differences were not statistically significant(all P>0.05). Sensitivity analysis showed that the above results were stable. The funnel plots of the lymph nodes and postoperative complication morbidity did not present significant publication bias.

CONCLUSIONSHALG has the advantages of minimal invasiveness such as shorter incision length and quicker recovery. Furthermore, the short-term efficacy of HALG is similar to conventional open surgery. However, the long-term efficacy is lack of support from multicenter long-term follow-up results.

Gastric duplication cyst is a very rare gastrointestinal tract malformation that accounts for 2％-4％ of alimentary tract duplications.It is a diagnostic dilemma for doctors because its clinical and radiological manifest is usually nonspecific.At the present stage,it can only rely on surgery.We should pay attention to ectopic pancreas resection and ligation of pancreatic duct during operation.There was one case of gastric duplication cyst with ectopic pancreas in adults from the Second Affdiated Hospital of Nanchang University.

Objective:Whether extralevator abdominoperineal excision (ELAPE) improves survival and safety remains controversial.Systematic review of all comparative studies to define the superiority of ELAPE to conventional abdominoperineal excision (APE).Methods:Corresponding data,with case-control studies or cohorts regarding intraoperative perforation rate,the local recurrence rate and postoperative complications in the ELAPE group and the APE group,were retrieved from PubMed,Embase,the Cochrane Library,Chinese Biomedical Literature (CMB),VIP,China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI),and Wanfang Database.Meta-analysis was performed by using RenMan 5.2.Results:A total of 10 articles were included.Intraperative perforation rate (MD=0.54,95％ CI 0.31 to 1.39,P=0.03),local recurrence rate (MD=0.30,95％ CI 0.21 to 0.42,P＜0.001) in the ELAPE group was significantly lower than that in the APE group.The difference in positive margin rate between the 2 groups was not statistically significant (P=0.07).Conclusion:Through gap repair of episiotomy and individualized therapy can improve ELAPE postoperative quality of life.ELAPE shows certain advantages in treating lower rectal cancer comparing to APE,but it should pay attention to individualized treatment.More studies through large sample multi-center,medium and long term randomized design are necessary to determine the effect of surgery on tumor.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of a novel computer-assisted navigation technique for intraoperative correction of femoral rotation deformity in diaphyseal fractures.Methods From November 2015 to November 2016,a navigation system (BrainLAB,Germany) was used in antegrade intramedullary nailing for 13 patients with femoral shaft fracture to intraoperatively restore the normal length and rotation of the fractured femur.They were 11 men and 2 women,with an average age of 38.2 years.The iujury affected the left side in 5 cases and the right side in 8.According to the Winquist Classification,there were 6 cases of type Ⅰ,3 ones of type Ⅱ,3 ones of type m,and one of type Ⅳ.This navigation system allowed the surgeons to detect and set the femoral anteversion (FAV) and length of the injured leg at the desired angle and length of the healthy contralateral femur,precisely matching the contralateral limb and restoring the normal length and rotation of the fractured femur.All the patients underwent postoperative CT scan of bilateral femora for measurement of the lengths and rotations which were conpared with the intraoperative values obtained with the navigation system.Results Additional operative time required for computerized navigation averaged 42.8 min (from 35 to 55 min).The mean length difference between the treated and untreated femora was 4.2 nnn (from 2 to 9 mm).The FAVs obtained from intraoperative navigation and postoperative CT scan were 34.0° ± 8.4° and 33.5° ± 8.3° in the healthy side and 31.2° ± 8.5° and 32.8° ± 9.0° in the injured side,showing no significant differences either between the 2 sides or between intraoperation and postoperation (P ＞ 0.05).The mean rotational difference between the 2 extremities were 4.8° ± 1.6° for the navigation and 3.8° ± 1.9° for the CT scan,showing an insignificant difference (P ＞ 0.05).All the incisions healed well with no intraoperative or postoperative complications.Conclusions This novel navigation technique may serve as a reliable tool to accurately correct the rotational malalignment of femoral shaft fractures intraoperatively,but care should be taken in every step of the navigation procedure to reduce complications.

OBJECTIVETo compare the clinical efficacy of the lymph node dissection patterns of the reverse and the traditional cabbage in hand-assisted laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy (HALG).

METHODSFrom December 2010 to October 2013, 194 patients with HALG in Chengdu Military General Hospital were enrolled in this study. According to the pattern of lymph node dissection, 108 patients were performed with the reverse procedure which took spleen as starting point, from left to right, and 86 patients were performed with the traditional cabbage procedure which took the abdominal cavity as the center, from both sides to middle. A retrospective comparative analysis was made on the intra- and post-operative data between the two groups.

RESULTSAll the patients were successfully performed with HALG, and no peri-operative death occurred. There were no significant differences in the incision length [(7.0 ± 0.2) cm vs. (6.9 ± 0.3) cm], the operative time [(170.9 ± 33.8) minute vs. (174.6 ± 22.4) minute], dissected lymph node number (17.6 ± 7.5 vs. 17.1 ± 5.8) and post-operative complications [(6.5%(7/108) vs. 8.1%(7/86)] between the reverse group and cabbage group (all P>0.05). However, less blood loss [(204.6 ± 98.2) ml vs. (259.1 ± 122.6) ml, P<0.01] and shorter postoperative hospital stay [(9.0 ± 1.7) day vs. (10.5 ± 4.0) day, P<0.01] were observed in reverse group as compared to cabbage group. During 1 to 6 months follow-up, no death case was found in reverse group, while 1 case died due to upper gastrointestinal bleeding 48 days after operation in cabbage group.

CONCLUSIONEfficacy is similar between the two HALG procedures in lymph node dissection, while reverse procedure has certain advantages, such as less blood loss and faster recovery.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM) for the rectal tumor.Methods The clinical data of 35 patients with rectal tumors who were admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University between November 2012 and March 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.The preoperative endorectal ultrasonography (ERUS) was applied to patients for evaluating local invasion and lymph node metastasis,and confirming the pathological types of tumors,size and location of tumors,depth of invasion and with or without lymph node enlargement around the rectal wall,and then patients underwent TEMs.Patients were followed up by outpatient examination,telephone interview and instant messenger (WeChat) till August 2014.Results The tumors of 6 patients were located in the anterior wall of rectum,11 were in the posterior wall of rectum,9 were in the left and 9 in the right side walls of rectum.The diameter of tumor,distances between distal margin of tumor and anal verge,volume of intraoperative blood loss and operation time were (2.3 ± 0.9) cm (range,0.7-4.8 cm),(8 ±4)cm(range,4-17 cm),(32 ±19)mL (range,5-60 mL) and (79 ±35)minutes (range,31-150 minutes),respectively.Tumors with positive margin showed the negative margin after supplementary resection.All the patients didn't receive the specific analgesic therapy with the intake of liquid diets at postoperative day 1-3,and they were discharged after anal exsufflation.The duration of hospital stay was (4.2 ±1.2)days (range,2.0-9.0 days).The results of pathological examination showed that rectal adenoma were detected in 12 patients,rectal carcinoma in situ in 2 patients (Tis stage),rectal carcinoid in 2 patients,low-risk T1 stage of rectal cancer in 9 patients,high-risk T1 stage in 7 patients and T2 stage in 3 patients who received chemotherapy.Seventeen patients had postoperative complications,including 9 with perineum swelling and frequent defecation,4 with functional impairment of anal sphincter,2 with acute urinary retention and 2 with mild errhysis with the eased symptoms after symptomatic treatment.A total of 35 patients were followed up for 5-22 months with a median time of 11 months.The recurrence rate of rectal cancer was 2/19,including in the low-and high-risk T1 stage of 1/16 and in T2 stage of 1/3.Two of 12 patients without adjuvant therapy had recurrence of tumors,and other patients had no recurrence of tumors after adjuvant therapy.Conclusion TEM is safe and feasible in the treatment of rectal adenoma,carcinoma in situ,rectal carcinoid as well as rectal cancer in the low-and high-risk T1 stage.

The Nrf-2/ARE signaling pathway is not only affected by itself but also influenced by multiple tumor-related signals. To expand our understanding about the Nrf-2/ARE signaling pathway and lay a theoretical foundation for further research, we reviewed the effects of multiple tumor-related signals on the Nrf-2/ARE signaling pathway and studied the possible underlying mechanisms.
