Objective:To examine the significance of serum Endocan levels in evaluating the severity of disease and predicting the prognosis for elderly patients with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome(MODS).Methods:Seventy-five elderly patients from the Department of Geriatric ICU at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were selected and divided into two groups: the non-MODS group and the MODS group.This division was based on the levels of acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHE Ⅱ)scores and MODS scores within 24 hours of admission.Additionally, 40 elderly individuals undergoing physical examination were included as a control group.Venous blood samples were collected from all participants to detect the levels of Endocan using ELISA.The patients were further categorized into the survival group and the death group based on their clinical outcome within 28 days.The Endocan levels in all groups were compared, and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were generated to assess the value of Endocan in determining the severity of the disease and predicting prognosis in elderly MODS patients.Results:The levels of Endocan were found to be higher in the MODS group compared to the non-MODS and control groups[(622.3±149.2)ng/L vs.(433.1±189.7)ng/L, P<0.001]. Furthermore, patients with higher APACHE Ⅱ and MODS scores exhibited higher levels of Endocan.The area under the ROC curve(AUC)for Endocan, MODS score, and Endocan+ MODS score were 0.791, 0.806, and 0.820, respectively( P>0.05). Similarly, the AUC for Endocan, APACHE Ⅱ score, and Endocan+ APACHE Ⅱ score were 0.763, 0.799, and 0.803, respectively( P>0.05). Interestingly, the survival group had lower levels of Endocan compared to the death group[(444.6±193.6)ng/L vs.(618.2±149.5)ng/L, P<0.001]. Conclusions:Endocan can be utilized as a noteworthy indicator, which is associated with the seriousness of illness and the prognosis for elderly patients with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome(MODS).

Objective: To validate the method for measuring the TPV and OAR doses and 2D dose distribution in IMRT through using TLD and radiochromic film. Methods: Eight medical linear accelerators (Valian, Elekta, Siemens) were selected. The polystyrene phantom provided by IAEA was CT scanned and the image obtained was transferred to TPS for formulation of treatment plan, prescription of PTV and OAR doses and calculation of corresponding monitoring unit (MU), IMRT was performed on the phantom using 6 MV X-ray. Irradiated TLDs and films were measured and evaluated at the Secondary Standard Dosimetry Laboratory at the Radiation Safety Institute of Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Results: According to IAEA requirement, the relative deviations between TLD-measured and TPS-planned doses were within ±7.0% for the prescribed PTV and OAR doses. As measured result, the PTV values for 8 accelerators were in the range of 0.6% to 5.9%, consistent with the IAEA requirements, whereas the OAT values for 8 accelerators were within -0.6% to 7.0%, consistent the requirements. As IAEA required, the 2D dose distribution passing rate of 3 mm/3% should be higher than 90%. The film-measured and TPS-planned values for 8 accelerators were within 90.2% to 100.0%, consistent with the requirements. Conclusions TLD and radiochromic film are feasible in validating the PTV and OAR doses and the 2D dose distribution pass rate in IMRT. This method can be widely used in quality audit and internal verification in IMRT in medical institutiions on a large scale.

Objective: To study a method to measure the doses to planned target volume (PTV) and organ at risk (OAR) and 2D dose distribution in IMRT by using TLD and radiochromic film for a verification purpose. Methods: Totally 7 different types of medical linear accelerators were selected from seven hospitals in Hubei province. A polystyrene phantom provided by IAEA was CT scanned and then the scanned images were returned to the Treatment Planning System (TPS) for determining the prescribed doses to PTS and OAR and the corresponding MU. After the phantom was irradiated with 6 MV X-ray, the TLDs and films were transmitted to the secondary standard dosimetry laboratory of China CDC for measurement and estimation. Results: The IAEA required the relative deviations between TLD-measured and TPS-planned doses to OAR and PTV be within ±7.0%. For PTV, the measured-to-planned deviation values for 7 accelerator were within -5.4% to 6.5%, all consistent with the IAEA requirements. For OAR, the values for 5 accelerators were within -2.2% to 6.7%, not consistent the requirements, whereas the values for the other 2 were -8.6% and 8.2% respectively, beyond the required values. The IAEA required that the 2D dose distribution 3 mm/3% pass rate be higher than 90%. The measured values for 7 accelerators were in the range of 90.3%-98.9%, all consistent with the requirements. Conclusions It is feasible scientifically and easy to operate in practice for using TLD and film to carry out dose verification in IMRT. It would be advisable to apply this method to quality verification in IMRT in medical institutions to the extent possible.

Objective:Surgical site infection (SSI) can markedly prolong postoperative hospital stay, aggravate the burden on patients and society, even endanger the life of patients. This study aims to investigate the national incidence of SSI following abdominal surgery and to analyze the related risk factors in order to provide reference for the control and prevention of SSI following abdominal surgery.Methods:A multicenter cross-sectional study was conducted. Clinical data of all the adult patients undergoing abdominal surgery in 68 hospitals across the country from June 1 to 30, 2020 were collected, including demographic characteristics, clinical parameters during the perioperative period, and the results of microbial culture of infected incisions. The primary outcome was the incidence of SSI within postoperative 30 days, and the secondary outcomes were ICU stay, postoperative hospital stay, cost of hospitalization and the mortality within postoperative 30-day. Multivariable logistic regression was used to analyze risk factors of SSI after abdominal surgery.Results:A total of 5560 patients undergoing abdominal surgery were included, and 163 cases (2.9%) developed SSI after surgery, including 98 cases (60.1%) with organ/space infections, 19 cases (11.7%) with deep incisional infections, and 46 cases (28.2%) with superficial incisional infections. The results from microbial culture showed that Escherichia coli was the main pathogen of SSI. Multivariate analysis revealed hypertension (OR=1.792, 95% CI: 1.194-2.687, P=0.005), small intestine as surgical site (OR=6.911, 95% CI: 1.846-25.878, P=0.004), surgical duration (OR=1.002, 95% CI: 1.001-1.003, P<0.001), and surgical incision grade (contaminated incision: OR=3.212, 95% CI: 1.495-6.903, P=0.003; Infection incision: OR=11.562, 95%CI: 3.777-35.391, P<0.001) were risk factors for SSI, while laparoscopic or robotic surgery (OR=0.564, 95%CI: 0.376-0.846, P=0.006) and increased preoperative albumin level (OR=0.920, 95%CI: 0.888-0.952, P<0.001) were protective factors for SSI. In addition, as compared to non-SSI patients, the SSI patients had significantly higher rate of ICU stay [26.4% (43/163) vs. 9.5% (514/5397), χ 2=54.999, P<0.001] and mortality within postoperative 30-day [1.84% (3/163) vs.0.01% (5/5397), χ 2=33.642, P<0.001], longer ICU stay (median: 0 vs. 0, U=518 414, P<0.001), postoperative hospital stay (median: 17 days vs. 7 days, U=656 386, P<0.001), and total duration of hospitalization (median: 25 days vs. 12 days, U=648 129, P<0.001), and higher hospitalization costs (median: 71 000 yuan vs. 39 000 yuan, U=557 966, P<0.001). Conclusions:The incidence of SSI after abdominal surgery is 2.9%. In order to reduce the incidence of postoperative SSI, hypoproteinemia should be corrected before surgery, laparoscopic or robotic surgery should be selected when feasible, and the operating time should be minimized. More attentions should be paid and nursing should be strengthened for those patients with hypertension, small bowel surgery and seriously contaminated incision during the perioperative period.

Objective:Surgical site infection (SSI) is the most common infectious complication after emergency abdominal surgery (EAS). To a large extent, most SSI can be prevented, but there are few relevant studies in China. This study mainly investigated the current situation of SSI occurrence after EAS in China, and further explored risk factors for SSI occurrence.Methods:Multi-center cross-sectional study was conducted. Clinical data of patients undergoing EAS in 33 hospitals across China between May 1, 2019 and June 7, 2019 were prospectively collected, including perioperative data and microbial culture results from infected incisions. The primary outcome was the incidence of SSI after EAS, while the secondary outcomes were postoperative hospital stay, ICU occupancy rate, length of ICU stay, hospitalization cost, and mortality within postoperative 30 days. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to analyze the risk factors of SSI after EAS.Results:A total of 660 EAS patients aged (47.9±18.3) years were enrolled in this study, including 56.5% of males (373/660). Forty-nine (7.4%) patients developed postoperative SSI. The main pathogen of SSI was Escherichia coli [culture positive rate was 32.7% (16/49)]. As compared to patients without SSI, those with SSI were more likely to be older (median 56 years vs. 46 years, U=19 973.5, P<0.001), male [71.4% (35/49) vs. 56.1% (343/611), χ 2=4.334, P=0.037] and diabetes [14.3% (7/49) vs. 5.1% (31/611), χ 2=5.498, P=0.015]; with-lower preoperative hemoglobin (median: 122.0 g/L vs. 143.5 g/L, U=11 471.5, P=0.006) and albumin (median: 35.5 g/L vs. 40.8 g/L, U=9452.0, P<0.001), with higher blood glucose (median: 6.9 mmol/L vs. 6.0 mmol/L, U=17 754.5, P<0.001); with intestinal obstruction [32.7% (16/49) vs. 9.2% (56/611), χ 2=25.749, P<0.001], with ASA score 3-4 [42.9% (21/49) vs. 13.9% (85/611), χ 2=25.563, P<0.001] and with high surgical risk [49.0% (24/49) vs. 7.0% (43/611), χ 2=105.301, P<0.001]. The main operative procedure resulting in SSI was laparotomy [81.6%(40/49) vs. 35.7%(218/611), χ 2=40.232, P<0.001]. Patients with SSI experienced significantly longer operation time (median: 150 minutes vs. 75 minutes, U=25 183.5, P<0.001). In terms of clinical outcome, higher ICU occupancy rate [51.0% (25/49) vs. 19.5% (119/611), χ 2=26.461, P<0.001], more hospitalization costs (median: 44 000 yuan vs. 15 000 yuan, U=24 660.0, P<0.001), longer postoperative hospital stay (median: 10 days vs. 5 days, U=23 100.0, P<0.001) and longer ICU occupancy time (median: 0 days vs. 0 days, U=19 541.5, P<0.001) were found in the SSI group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the elderly (OR=3.253, 95% CI: 1.178-8.985, P=0.023), colorectal surgery (OR=9.156, 95% CI: 3.655-22.937, P<0.001) and longer operation time (OR=15.912, 95% CI:6.858-36.916, P<0.001) were independent risk factors of SSI, while the laparoscopic surgery (OR=0.288, 95% CI: 0.119-0.694, P=0.006) was an independent protective factor for SSI. Conclusions:For patients undergoing EAS, attention should be paid to middle-aged and elderly patients and those of colorectal surgery. Laparoscopic surgery should be adopted when feasible and the operation time should be minimized, so as to reduce the incidence of SSI and to reduce the burden on patients and medical institutions.

Objective: To investigate the diagnosis and treatment for enterocutaneous fistula (ECF) in China, and to explore the prognostic factors of ECF. Methods: A multi-center cross-sectional study was conducted based on the Registration System of Chinese Gastrointestinal Fistula and Intra-Abdominal Infections to collect the clinical data of ECF patients from 54 medical centers in 22 provinces/municipalities from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2018. The clinical data included patient gender, age, length of hospital stay, intensive care unit (ICU) admission, underlying diseases, primary diseases, direct causes of ECF, location and type of ECF, complications, treatment and outcomes. All medical records were carefully filled in by the attending physicians, and then re-examined by more than two specialists. The diagnosis of ECF was based on the clinical manifestations, laboratory/imaging findings and intraoperative exploration. Results: A total of 1521 patients with ECF were enrolled, including 1099 males and 422 females, with a median age of 55 years. The top three primary diseases of ECF were malignant tumors in 626 cases (41.2%, including 540 gastrointestinal tumors, accounting for 86.3% of malignant tumors), gastrointestinal ulcers and perforations in 202 cases (13.3%), and trauma in 157 cases (10.3%). The direct causes of ECF were mainly surgical operation in 1194 cases (78.5%), followed by trauma in 156 (10.3%), spontaneous fistula due to Crohn′s disease in 92 (6.0%), radiation intestinal injury in 41 (2.7%), severe pancreatitis in 20 (1.3%), endoscopic treatment in 13 (0.9%) and 5 cases (0.3%) of unknown reasons. All the patients were divided into three groups: 1350 cases (88.7%) with simple ECF, 150 (9.9%) with multiple ECF, and 21 (1.4%) with combined internal fistula. Among the patients with simple ECF, 438 cases (28.8%) were jejuno-ileal fistula, 313 (20.6%) colon fistula, 170 (11.2%) rectal fistula, 111 (7.3%) duodenal fistula, 76 (5.0%) ileocecal fistula, 65 (4.3%) ileocolic anastomotic fistula, 55 (3.6%) duodenal stump fistula, 36 (2.4%) gastrointestinal anastomotic fistula, 36 (2.4%) esophagogastric/esophagojejunal anastomotic fistula, 29 (1.9%) gastric fistula and 21 (1.4%) cholangiopancreatiointestinal. Among all the simple ECF patients, 991 were tubular fistula and 359 were labial fistula. A total of 1146 patients finished the treatment, of whom 1061 (92.6%) were healed (586 by surgery and 475 self-healing) and 85 (7.4%) died. A total of 1043 patients (91.0%) received nutritional support therapy, and 77 (6.7%) received fistuloclysis. Infectious source control procedures were applied to 1042 patients, including 711 (62.0%) with active lavage and drainage and 331 (28.9%) with passive drainage. Among them, 841 patients (73.4%) underwent minimally invasive procedures of infectious source control (replacement of drainage tube through sinus tract, puncture drainage, etc.), 201 (17.5%) underwent laparotomy drainage, while 104 (9.1%) did not undergo any drainage measures. A total of 610 patients (53.2%) received definitive operation, 24 patients died within postoperative 30-day with mortality of 3.9% (24/610), 69 (11.3%) developed surgical site infection (SSI), and 24 (3.9%) had a relapse of fistula. The highest cure rate was achieved in ileocecal fistula (100%), followed by rectal fistula (96.2%, 128/133) and duodenal stump fistula (95.7%,44/46). The highest mortality was found in combined internal fistula (3/12) and no death in ileocecal fistula. Univariate prognostic analysis showed that primary diseases as Crohn′s disease (χ²=6.570, P=0.010) and appendicitis/appendiceal abscess (P=0.012), intestinal fistula combining with internal fistula (χ²=5.460, P=0.019), multiple ECF (χ²=7.135, P=0.008), esophagogastric / esophagojejunal anastomotic fistula (χ²=9.501, P=0.002), ECF at ileocecal junction (P=0.012), non-drainage/passive drainage before the diagnosis of intestinal fistula (χ²=9.688, P=0.008), non-drainage/passive drainage after the diagnosis of intestinal fistula (χ²=9.711, P=0.008), complicating with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) (χ²=179.699, P<0.001), sepsis (χ²=211.851, P<0.001), hemorrhage (χ²=85.300, P<0.001), pulmonary infection (χ²=60.096, P<0.001), catheter-associated infection (χ²=10.617, P=0.001) and malnutrition (χ²=21.199, P<0.001) were associated with mortality. Multivariate prognostic analysis cofirmed that sepsis (OR=7.103, 95%CI:3.694-13.657, P<0.001), complicating with MODS (OR=5.018, 95%CI:2.170-11.604, P<0.001), and hemorrhage (OR=4.703, 95%CI: 2.300-9.618, P<0.001) were independent risk factors of the death for ECF patients. Meanwhile, active lavage and drainage after the definite ECF diagnosis was the protective factor (OR=0.223, 95%CI: 0.067-0.745, P=0.015). Conclusions The overall mortality of ECF is still high. Surgical operation is the most common cause of ECF. Complications e.g. sepsis, MODS, hemorrhage, and catheter-associated infection, are the main causes of death. Active lavage and drainage is important to improve the prognosis of ECF.

Objective: To investigate the effects of milrinone on levels of inflammatory factors and liver and renal function after CPB in rheumatic heart disease patients for valve replacement. Methods: From January 2014 to January 2016, 80 patients received valve replacement in the Central Hospital of Chongqing Three Gorges were randomly divided into observation group and control group by block randomization grouping method, with 40 patients in each group.The patients in the observation group were pumped intravenously with milrinone 0.5μg·kg^-1·min^-1 for 72h after surgery, while the patients in the control group were not pumped.The serum levels of IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, TNF-α were detected by ELISA before operation and on 0d, 1d, 3d, 5d after operation, respectively.The levels of ALT, AST, Scr were also detected at the same time.Moreover, the time for operation, extracorporeal circulation, interruption, mechanical ventilation, ICU and hospital were also compared between the two groups. Results: The levels of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8 and IL-10 increased immediately after operation in both groups[control group: (14.97±5.14)pg/mL, (52.45±10.37)pg/mL, (34.10±8.38)pg/mL, (32.27±8.45)pg/mL; observation group: (16.05±5.71)pg/mL, (54.39±8.56)pg/mL, (33.80±7.69)pg/mL, (31.48±5.94)pg/mL, t=-0.628, -0.644, 0.116, 0.342], and the peak values of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-8 reached on the first day after operation in both two groups[control group: (52.07±10.18)pg/mL, (96.04±26.45)pg/mL, (91.14±18.28)pg/mL, (48.10±9.78)pg/mL; observation group: (50.37±12.98)pg/mL, (93.66±24.10)pg/mL, (83.16±16.28)pg/mL, (46.68±9.25)pg/mL, t=0.559, 0.295, 1.458, 0.473], and the peak value of IL-10 reached on the 3rd day after operation(t=-3.577), the differences were statistically significant on the 3rd day after operation[control group: (36.03±9.39)pg/mL, (59.56±14.38)pg/mL, (53.91±13.16)pg/mL, (85.55±16.49)pg/mL; observation group: (36.70±4.33)pg/mL, (36.20±3.85)pg/mL, (42.91±7.30)pg/mL, (101.33±10.81)pg/mL, t=-0.289, 7.017, 3.267, -3.577]. The levels of ALT, AST and Scr increased immediately after operation in both groups[control group: (38.51±5.12)U/L, (40.23±5.03)U/L, (62.27±5.02)μmol/L; observation group: (39.20±4.67)U/L, (39.6±4.94)U/L, (73.61±4.04)μmol/L, t=0.114, 0.243, 0.630], there were tatistically significant difference between the two groups on the 5th day after operation[control group: (61.45±5.27)U/L, (54.20±7.0)U/L, (86.45±9.01)μmol/L; observation group: (36.20±3.85)U/L, (34.85±7.12)U/L, (83.7±11.07)μmol/L, t=11.231, 9.224, 5.647], and on the fifth day, the levels of ALT, AST and Scr in the observation group dropped to normal, while only the level of Scr in the control group dropped to normal.There were no statistically significant differences in the time of operation, extracorporeal circulation, interruption, mechanical ventilation between two groups (t=0.267, 0.151, 0.187, 0.773, all P>0.05). However, there were statistically significant differences in the time of ICU and hospital [control group: (54.90±16.84)h, (14.35±3.01)d, observation group: (44.05±7.06)h, (10±1.86)d, t=8.149, 13.042, all P<0.05]. Conclusion Milrinone can obviously improve the inflammatory reaction in surgical trauma tissues caused by IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, TNF-α, and can protect liver, renal tissue from injury, moreover, it can decrease the incidence of postoperative complications and the length of hospital stay.
