Objective:To investigate the feasibility and safety of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided intrahepatic portal vein puncture through jugular vein implantation in transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS).Methods:As research subjects, 5 beagle dogs were anesthetized, and EUS was placed through the jugular vein to observe the intrahepatic portal vein. Under real-time guidance, the portal vein was punctured and a stent was placed to complete the TIPS.Results:Among the 5 beagles, EUS was unable to be placed in 1 due to the small diameter of the external jugular vein, and it was implanted successfully in 4 others through the external jugular vein who underwent real-time guidance of portal vein puncture. Subsequent stent placement and balloon dilation were completed. All animals survived after the experiment.Conclusion:EUS-guided intrahepatic portal vein puncture through jugular vein implantation is safe and feasible in TIPS.

Objective:To investigate the impact of lifestyle index (LSI) on serum uric acid levels in young and middle-aged men.Methods:This was a cross sectional study. A total of 8 067 subjects underwent check-up in Taihu Sanatorium of Jiangsu Province from March 2020 to June 2021 were enrolled, average age were(46.46±8.81) years. According to age, subjects were divided into young male group (18-44 years old, n=3 269) and middle-aged male group (45-60 years old, n=4 798). Height, weight, body mass index, alcohol drinking, smoking, diet, exercise, fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides, high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein-cholesterol(LDL-C), serum uric acid and other data in all cases were measured and recorded. Results:The serum uric acid level in allsubjects was (376.80±74.43)μmol/L and the prevalence of hyperuricemia was 25.7%.The serum uric acid level in the young male group was higher than that in the middle-aged male group [(381.86±74.32)μmol/L vs (373.34±74.32)μmol/L, P<0.001]. The prevalence of hyperuricemia in the young male group was higher than that in the middle-aged male group (27.4% vs 24.5%), and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001). With the improvement of LSI scores, the serum uric acid levels in young and middle-aged men showed a decreasing trend ( P<0.01). Logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for age, fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, triglyceride, HDL-C, LDL-C, hypertension, and diabetes, LSI was an independent factor for serum uric acid levels in young and middle-aged men. The risk of hyperuricemia in young and middle-aged male decreased ( OR 0.83 and 0.84, respectively, P<0.01) for every 1-point increase in LSI. Exercise and body mass index were independently associated with hyperuricemia in the young male group ( OR 0.83 and 0.54, respectively, P<0.05). Exercise, body mass index, and alcohol drinking were independently associated with hyperuricemia in the middle-aged male group ( OR 0.85, 0.51 and 0.65, respectively, P<0.05). Conclusion:LSI is an independent factor associated with hyperuricemia in young and middle-aged men and a healthy lifestyle has a protective effect on serum uric acid levels in young and middle-aged men.

BACKGROUND: Perioperative treatment has become an increasingly important aspect of the management of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Small-scale clinical studies performed in recent years have shown improvements in the major pathological remission rate after neoadjuvant therapy, suggesting that it will soon become an important part of NSCLC treatment. Nevertheless, neoadjuvant immunotherapy may be accompanied by serious adverse reactions that lead to delay or cancelation of surgery, additional illness, and even death, and have therefore attracted much attention. The purpose of the clinical recommendations is to form a diagnosis and treatment plan suitable for the current domestic medical situation for the immune-related adverse event (irAE). METHODS: This recommendation is composed of experts in thoracic surgery, oncologists, thoracic medicine and irAE related departments (gastroenterology, respirology, cardiology, infectious medicine, hematology, endocrinology, rheumatology, neurology, dermatology, emergency section) to jointly complete the formulation. Experts make full reference to the irAE guidelines, large-scale clinical research data published by thoracic surgery, and the clinical experience of domestic doctors and publicly published cases, and repeated discussions in multiple disciplines to form this recommendation for perioperative irAE. RESULTS: This clinical recommendation covers the whole process of prevention, evaluation, examination, treatment and monitoring related to irAE, so as to guide the clinical work comprehensively and effectively. CONCLUSIONS Perioperative irAE management is an important part of immune perioperative treatment of lung cancer. With the continuous development of immune perioperative treatment, more research is needed in the future to optimize the diagnosis and treatment of perioperative irAE.

BACKGROUND: Bronchopleural fistula (BPF) is one of the most serious and rare postoperative complications, especially the bronchial stump fistula after lobectomy/pneumonectomy. Common treatment options include conservative medical treatment combined with surgery. However, due to the delayed healing of the fistula, the chest cavity continues to communicate with the outside world, and the patient is prone to complicated with severe thoracic infection and respiratory failure, so that the physical condition can hardly tolerate the second surgical procedure. Endoscopic treatment provides a new option for the treatment of this complication. METHODS: A case of right pulmonary squamous cell carcinoma was admitted to the Department of Thoracic Surgery II, Peking University Cancer Hospital in June 2016. The diagnosis and treatment was retrospectively analyzed, and the literature was reviewed. RESULTS: A 65 year old male patient was admitted to hospital because of "cough with blood in sputum for 3 months". Chest computed tomography (CT) showed soft tissue density mass shadow in the right lower lobe. A tumor could be seen in the opening of the right middle lobe and basal segment of lower lobe. Biopsy confirmed squamous cell carcinoma. Diagnosis consideration: squamous cell carcinoma of the middle and lower lobe of the right lung (cT2aN2, IIIa). Patients received gemcitabine plus cisplatin neoadjuvant chemotherapy for 2 cycles, and the effect of chemotherapy showed stable disease (SD). Four weeks after chemotherapy, the patient underwent video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) assisted right middle and lower lobectomy and mediastinal lymph node dissection. On the 5th day after operation, the patient developed acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and was transferred to intensive care unit (ICU) again after endotracheal intubation. On the 7th day after operation, the patient developed a right intermediate trunk bronchial stump fistula, but due to ARDS, the patient's physical condition could not tolerate the second operation. Under the support of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), a membrane covered, expandable, hinged stent was inserted into the intermediate trunk bronchial stump through rigid bronchoscope, and was successfully blocked. Due to no improvement in ARDS and irreversible pulmonary interstitial fibrosis, the patient received double lung transplantation successfully after systemic anti-infection treatment. CONCLUSIONS Endoscopic implantation of covered stent is a simple, safe and effective method for closure of bronchial stump fistula. When the patient's clinical situation is not suitable for immediate surgery, endoscopic stent implantation can be used as a preferred treatment method to create opportunities for follow-up treatment.

Objective:By comparing the volume% (V% GGOs) of ground glass opacities (GGOs) in high resolution CT (HRCT) of patients with acute paraquat (PQ) poisoning at different time points, its value in the early prognosis of patients with PQ poisoning was analyzed. Methods:The data of patients with PQ poisoning admitted to Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine of Chinese Armed Police Forces from June 2017 to December 2018 were prospectively analyzed. According to the follow-up results after poisoning at 90 days, the patients were divided into the survival group and death group. Three-dimensional reconstruction technology was used to calculate the change of V% GGOs on the 3rd, 5th, and 7th day after poisoning. Chi-square test and One-Way ANOVA of variance were used to compare sex, age, and time of poisoning between the two groups. The Student's t test was used to compare V% GGOs between the two groups at different time points. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to determine the guiding significance of the indicator on the prognosis of patients with PQ poisoning at different time points. Results:A total of 89 patients with PQ poisoning were included in the study, 49 in the survival group and 40 in the death group. There were no statistical differences between the two groups of patients in sex, age, poisoning time, oxygenation index, mean arterial pressure, total bilirubin, blood urea nitrogen, alanine aminotransferase, and aspartate aminotransferase at admission (all P>0.05). The blood PQ concentration (mg/L) in the death group was significantly higher than that in the survival group (6.35 ±0.51 vs 3.49 ±0.21, P= 0.013). On the 3rd, 5th and 7th day after admission, the V% GGOs was significantly higher than that in the survival group (3rd day: 0.062±0.020 vs 0.049±0.007, P= 0.013; 5th day: 0.292±0.130 vs 0.123±0.044, P<0.01; 7th day: 0.334±0.116 vs 0.138±0.034, P=0.019). The area under the ROC curve showed that the prognosis AUC of the 7th day V% GGOs after poisoning was 0.967, the sensitivity was 100% and the specificity was 83.33% when the threshold was 0.16, but the time point was late. On the 5th day after poisoning, the V% GGOs judged the prognosis AUC was 0.842, the sensitivity was 82.35% and the specificity was 89.47% when the threshold was 0.14. On the 3rd day after poisoning, the V% GGOs judged the prognosis AUC was 0.708, the sensitivity was 55.00% and the specificity was 78.95% when the threshold was 0.05. At this time, the sensitivity and specificity were lower than those on the 5th and 7th day. Conclusions:The proportion of ground glass opacity volume in patients with PQ poisoning can be used to evaluate their prognosis, and the best time point is the 5th day after poisoning.

Objective:To establish a disease risk prediction model for the newborn screening system of inherited metabolic diseases by artificial intelligence technology.Methods:This was a retrospectively study. Newborn screening data ( n=5 907 547) from February 2010 to May 2019 from 31 hospitals in China and verified data ( n=3 028) from 34 hospitals of the same period were collected to establish the artificial intelligence model for the prediction of inherited metabolic diseases in neonates. The validity of the artificial intelligence disease risk prediction model was verified by 360 814 newborns ' screening data from January 2018 to September 2018 through a single-blind experiment. The effectiveness of the artificial intelligence disease risk prediction model was verified by comparing the detection rate of clinically confirmed cases, the positive rate of initial screening and the positive predictive value between the clinicians and the artificial intelligence prediction model of inherited metabolic diseases. Results:A total of 3 665 697 newborns ' screening data were collected including 3 019 cases ' positive data to establish the 16 artificial intelligence models for 32 inherited metabolic diseases. The single-blind experiment ( n=360 814) showed that 45 clinically diagnosed infants were detected by both artificial intelligence model and clinicians. A total of 2 684 cases were positive in tandem mass spectrometry screening and 1 694 cases were with high risk in artificial intelligence prediction model of inherited metabolic diseases, with the positive rates of tandem 0.74% (2 684/360 814)and 0.46% (1 694/360 814), respectively. Compared to clinicians, the positive rate of newborns was reduced by 36.89% (990/2 684) after the application of the artificial intelligence model, and the positive predictive values of clinicians and artificial intelligence prediction model of inherited metabolic diseases were 1.68% (45/2 684) and 2.66% (45/1 694) respectively. Conclusion:An accurate, fast, and the lower false positive rate auxiliary diagnosis system for neonatal inherited metabolic diseases by artificial intelligence technology has been established, which may have an important clinical value.

BACKGROUND: MiR-148b-3p is an important microRNA that has been reported to be significantly related to various types of cancer, but its role in lung adenocarcinoma remains elusive. The purpose of this study is to detect the expression level of miR-148b-3p in lung adenocarcinoma specimens, and to analyze its correlation with the clinicopathological features as well as the prognosis of patients with lung adenocarcinoma. METHODS: A total of 123 tumor specimens from lung adenocarcinoma patients who underwent surgical resection in our department from January 2011 to December 2012 were collected. The expression of miR-148b-3p was detected by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), and its correlation with clinicopathological features of patients with lung adenocarcinoma was analyzed. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard models were used to analyze independent predictors of overall survival in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. The overall survival (OS) of patients in miR-148b-3p high expression group and miR-148b-3p low expression group were estimated by means of the Kaplan-Meier method and were compared using the Log-rank test method. RESULTS: Of the 123 patients with lung adenocarcinoma, 71 were in miR-148b-3p high expression group and 52 in low expression group. MiR-148b-3p was significantly associated with tumor grade (P=0.001) and tumor size (P=0.007), but not with age, gender, smoking history, history of alcohol, tumor thrombus, pleural invasion, node status or metastasis status. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard model analysis showed that tumor size (P=0.032), node status (P=0.005) and miR-148b-3p expression level (P=0.047) were significant independent predictors of overall survival of patients with lung adenocarcinoma. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the overall survival of patients with high expression of miR-148b-3p was significantly better than that of patients with low expression (P=0.010). CONCLUSIONS MiR-148b-3p was significantly associated with tumor grade and tumor size in lung adenocarcinoma, and served as an independent predictor of overall survival of patients with lung adenocarcinoma. The overall survival of patients with high expression level of miR-148b-3p was significantly better than that of patients with low expression.

Objective: To investigate the anatomical and surgical approaches to middle cranial fossa through orbital lateral wall under endoscope. Methods: Cadaveric formalin fixed specimens and fresh colored silicone injected specimens were used for this study. All anatomic technical measurements were performed under 0° and 30° endoscope and infrared rays navigation. The surgical approach was designed with the bony opening on the lateral wall of orbit through which the lateral side of the middle cranial fossa could be directly entered under endoscope. One case of recurrent meningioma was performed through this surgical approach. SPSS 20.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Results: The approach can directly enter the middle cranial fossa and expose anatomic landmarks including superior orbital fissure, lateral side of cavernous sinus, foramen rotundum, foramen ovale, foramen spinosum, petrosal bone and others as well as Ⅱ, Ⅲ, Ⅳ, Ⅴ, Ⅵ cranial nerves under endoscope. The maximal bony opening through the lateral wall of orbit was measured, with a horizontal diameter of (1.38±0.68) cm, a vertical diameter of (2.02±0.32) cm, a depth of (1.44±0.42) cm from bony opening margin to the dura. The recurrent meningioma involving lateral side of the middle skull base was successfully removed by this surgical approach through lateral wall of orbit. Conclusion Lateral transorbital endoscopic approach to the lateral side of middle skull base is a safe, feasible, and minimally invasive method, which allows surgeons to directly manipulate diseases involving this area with good visualization and minimal invasion under endoscope.

To investigate whether postoperative therapy can bring survival benefits to patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who have received neoadjuvant chemotherapy with TP regimen. Methods     We retrospectively reviewed clinical data of 115 patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy with TP regimen and underwent esophagectomy in our hospital from January 2007 through December 2016. Patients were divided into two groups including a non-receiving treatment group (54 patients with 47 males and 7 females) and a receiving treatment group (61 patients with 52 males and 9 females). There were 31 patients with postoperative chemotherapy, 14 with postoperative radiotherapy, and 16 with postoperative chemotherapy and radiotherapy in the receiving treatment group. Results     In the non-receiving treatment group, the 5-year median disease free survival (DFS) rate was 54.7%, and the 5-year overall survival (OS) rate was 55.3%. In the receiving treatment group, the median DFS was 46.0 months (95% CI 22.9–69.1), the 5-year DFS rate was 42.3%; and the   median OS was 68.0 months (95% CI 33.0–103.0), the 5-year OS rate was 51.3%. Furthermore, there was no statistical difference between the two groups with regards to DFS (P=0.641) or OS (P=0.757) using Kaplan-Meier method. Besides, in each subgroup, the results of Cox proportional hazard model analysis showed postoperative treatment did not improve survival (P>0.05, respectively). Conclusion     Postoperative treatment does not bring survival benefits to patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who have received neoadjuvant chemotherapy with TP regimen.
