Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of a modified continuous penetrating-suture pancreaticojejunostomy (PPJ), also known as a continuous PPJ with a U-shaped reinforcement of pancreatic section (U-PPJ), in patients with high risk of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF).Methods:Clinical data of 33 patients with pancreatic tumors undergoing pancreatic surgery in the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College from August 2017 to December 2023 were collected, including 22 males and 11 females, aged (64.9±8.6) years old. According to the fashion of pancreaticojejunostomy, patients were divided into two groups: U-PPJ group ( n=11) and PPJ group ( n=22). The general data, incidence of CR-POPF, abdominal bleeding and other clinicopathological data were collected. Results:All patients underwent pancreatic surgery successfully and were discharged from the hospital uneventfully. Intraoperative blood loss in U-PPJ group was 200.00 (100.0, 200.0) ml, postoperative hospitalization was 13.0 (11.0, 18.0) d, and the drain removal time was 17.0 (12.0, 21.0) d, and no CR-POPF occurred. The intraoperative blood loss, postoperative hospitalization days, drain removal time, and incidence of postoperative biochemical leakage were comparable between the groups (all P>0.05). The incidence of CR-POPF in U-PPJ group was lower than that in PPJ group [0 vs. 22.7% (5/22), P<0.05]. Conclusion:U-PPJ is safe and effective in patients with pancreatic tumors and might reduce the incidence of CR-POPF.

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of oral double-balloon enteroscopy for small intestinal bezoars with obstruction, the clinical, endoscopic, imaging, pathological and surgical data of patients with small intestinal bezoars and obstruction treated in Drum Tower Hospital, the Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School from December 2021 to March 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. A total of 5 patients, all female, aged 52-83 years, were included. The clinical manifestation was mainly digestive tract obstruction. The diameter of bezoars was 30-50 mm. Three were located in the jejunum, one in the proximal ileum, and one at the jejuno-ileal junction. Three cases were diagnosed as having small intestinal bezoars by imaging examination before operation. All 5 patients achieved technical success. Four patients achieved clinical success, the symptoms of obstruction were completely relieved, and 1 patient was partially relieved due to malignant obstruction. No obvious complication occurred in 5 patients after operation. The follow-up time was 15-790 days, and there was no recurrence. The results showed that oral double-balloon enteroscopy for small intestinal bezoars was safe and effective, providing a new treatment for patients with small intestinal bezoars except for surgery.

Objective:To explore the impact of unidentified injectable fillers on the soft tissue of nasal dorsum and rhinoplasty.Methods:The Plastic Surgery Information System of Xinhua Hospital Affiliated with Dalian University was utilized to conduct an analysis of 62 rhinoplasty patients between 2018 and 2019. Specifically, this included 28 patients with an unidentified history of injectable filler rhinoplasty, encompassing 1 male and 27 females with ages ranging from 19 to 53 years and a mean age of 28.8 years. Additionally, 34 patients underwent primary rhinoplasty, all of whom were female with ages ranging from 19 to 46 years and a mean age of 26.8 years. This study examined the effects of unidentified injectable fillers on the soft tissue of the nasal dorsum by analyzing the excised nasal dorsum under a microscope. Subsequently, statistical methods were performed to assess differences in gender, age, preoperative tip protrusion/nose length, postoperative tip protrusion/nose length, dorsal augmentation modality, and satisfaction, and to investigate the effect of unidentified injectables on the rate of dissatisfaction after rhinoplasty.Results:The histopathological analysis of unidentified injectable fillers removed from the nasal dorsum revealed the presence of mainly gel and granular fillers. The gel fillers, characterized by its pink jelly-like texture, contained unidentified injectable fillers, colorless glue, and were observed to flow out upon cutting. The granular filler, on the other hand, appeared as tough, irregularly shaped tissue similar to caviar. Additionally, evidence of muscle tissue in 5 pathologic sections indicated that the unidentified injectable fillers were injected into or near the dorsal nasal muscles, leading to varying degrees of muscle injuries upon excision. A comparison of 28 rhinoplasty patients with unidentified injectable fillers for nasal dorsal augmentation and 34 patients with primary rhinoplasty showed that 11 females in the former group and 4 females in the latter group were dissatisfied with the results. Statistical analysis demonstrated no significant differences between the two groups in terms of gender ( P=0.452), age ( P=0.219), preoperative tip projection/nasal length ( P=0.681), postoperative tip projection/nasal length ( P=0.105), and nasal dorsum augmentation methods ( P=0.413). However, the initial rhinoplasty group had a lower dissatisfactory rate (4 cases, 11.76%) and the unidentified injectables group had a higher dissatisfactory rate (11 cases, 39.29%), which was statistically significant between the two groups (χ 2=6.341, P=0.012). Conclusions:The presence of unidentified nasal injectable fillers can significantly decrease postoperative satisfactory rates, increase the incidence of dissatisfaction, and have adverse effects on the soft tissues of the nasal dorsum and the overall outcome of the rhinoplasty procedure.

Objective:Serum soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1) is a useful biomarker of bacterial infection. However, the diagnostic value of sTREM-1 of alveolar fluid in pulmonary infection is still unclear. This article aimed to explore the value of sTREM-1 of alveolar fluid in the early diagnosis of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) by systematic review of relevant literatures.Methods:CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, PubMed/Medline and Embase databases were retrieved. Articles on diagnosis of VAP by sTREM-1 before June 30, 2019 were collected. QUADAS-2 scale provided by Cochrane Collaboration Network was used to evaluate the quality of diagnostic experiments. RevMan 5.3 and Stata 13.0 software were used to complete Meta-analysis. The levels of sTREM-1 between VAP and non-VAP patients were analyzed by Meta-analysis, and then diagnostic test Meta-analysis was conducted. Heterogeneity, sensitivity and publication bias were analyzed.Results:A total of 24 articles were enrolled. QUADAS-2 scale indicated that the selected literature had low bias and high clinical adaptability. ① In Meta-analysis of sTREM-1 level in alveolar fluid, 20 articles were selected and found to have high heterogeneity ( I2 = 94.4%, P = 0.000). The random effects models were used for Meta-analysis. It was indicated that the sTREM-1 level in alveolar fluid of VAP group was significantly higher than that of non-VAP group with significant difference [standardized mean difference ( SMD) was 1.47, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 1.00-1.95, Z = 6.14, P = 0.000]. By subgroup analysis and Meta-regression analysis, no source of heterogeneity was found. Sensitivity analysis suggested that the results of this Meta-analysis were robust and credible, and Begg funnel plot analysis showed that there was no significant publication bias ( Z = 1.46, P = 0.143). ② A total of 18 articles were included in the Meta-analysis of diagnostic experiments. Deek funnel plot showed publication bias ( P = 0.012). The combined sensitivity was 0.87 (95% CI was 0.81-0.91), specificity was 0.80 (95% CI was 0.73-0.86), and diagnostic odds ratio ( DOR) was 26 (95% CI was 13-50). Subgroup analysis of three different sources of alveolar fluid (bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, endotracheal aspiration fluid and exhaled ventilator condensate) showed that STREM-1 had a certain value in early diagnosis of VAP. The I2 of combined DOR was 35.4%, and I2 of sensitivity was 79.46%, I2 of specificity was 77.61%, suggesting heterogeneity in the selected literature. Subgroup analysis found that nationality, subject design, sample source, sample size and diagnostic "gold criteria" were related to heterogeneity, but not age. The area under synthetic receiver operating characteristic (SROC) curve (AUC) was 0.90 (95% CI was 0.87-0.92). Conclusions:The detection of sTREM-1 level in alveolar fluid can be used for the early diagnosis of VAP with high sensitivity and specificity. If combined with other biomarkers, it may have more diagnostic value.

Objective To evaluate the improvement of lower urinary tract symptoms in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) patients with bladder calculi by lithotripsy and adjuvant traditional Chinese decoction. Methods A total of 72 BPH patients with bladder calculi were recruited and randomly divided into the non-adjuvant treatment group (37 patients) and the adjuvant treatment group (35 patients). The adjuvant treatment group received adjuvant traditional Chinese decoction from 2 days before lithotripsy for 2 weeks. The maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax) , residual urine volume (RU), International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) and Quality of Life (QOL) were assessed before and after the treatment. The time of urine routine returned to normal and the indwelling time of catheter were compared between two groups. Urinary incontinence and recurrent bladder calculi were followed up for 6 months. Results After the treatment, the score of the IPSS (12.9 ± 4.5 vs. 15.7 ± 3.9;t=2.826, P=0.006) and the RU (47.3 ± 9.2 ml vs. 58.4 ± 11.3 ml;t=4.556, P<0.001) in the adjuvant treatment group were significantly lower than those in the non-adjuvant treatment group, and the Qmax (30.4 ± 4.7 ml/s vs. 21.4 ± 3.9 ml/s;t=8.862, P<0.001 ) was significantly higher. The indwelling time of catheter (5.7 ± 2.1 d vs. 8.1 ± 2.2d;t=4.730, P<0.001) and the time of urine routine returned to normal (6.9 ± 2.3 d vs. 10.2 ± 3.1 d;t=5.106, P<0.001) in the adjuvant treatment group were significantly shorter than those in the non-adjuvant treatment group. The 6-month follow-up showed that the incidence of urinary incontinence (2.9% vs. 18.9%;χ2=4.698, P=0.030) and recurrent bladder calculi (5.7% vs. 24.3%;χ2=4.813, P=0.028) in the adjuvant treatment group were significantly shorter than those in the non-adjuvant treatment group, and the total effective rate was significantly higher (62.9%vs. 29.7%; χ2=6.672, P=0.011). Conclusions Lithotripsy and adjuvant traditional Chinese decoction can reduce the IPSS score and RU, increase Qmax, decrease urinary incontinence and recurrent bladder calculi, and improve lower urinary tract symptoms in BPH patients with bladder calculi.
