ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effect of transorally inserted anvil (OrVil TM) in patients with relapsed or denovo carcinoma at the esophagogastric junction. Methods:The clinical data of 60 patients who underwent radical intent resection for locally relapsed or denovo esophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma at Zhengzhou University Cancer Hospital from Jan 2011 to Jun 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into two groups according to whether transorally inserted anvil was used. Twenty-six patients who had used the system were assigned to the experimental group. Thirty-four patients without transorally inserted anvil were set to control group.Results:The incisor distance of the experimental group was shorter than that of the control group [36(34-40)cm vs. 39(36-41)cm, Z=-4.948, P<0.05]. Operation time in experimental group was 177 (145-260) min, compared to control group of 172 (140-225) min ( Z=-0.735, P=0.463). Intraoperative blood loss was 200 (100-900) ml in the experimental group and 300 (100-800) ml in the control group ( Z=-1.244, P=0.213). Postoperative upper margin distance of the experimental group was (3.6±1.7) cm compared to control group of (1.8±1.1) cm ( t=-0.735, P<0.01). The positive rate of margin in the experimental group was 4% vs. 15% in the control group ( χ2=1.931, P=0.165). The length of postoperative hospital stay in the experimental group was (18.6±5.2) d vs. (20.5±4.7) d ( t=-1.455, P=0.151). Surgery-related complications developed in 19% in the experimental group vs. 27% in the control group ( P>0.05). Conclusion:The application of the transorally inserted anvil in the operation of patients with locally relapsed or denovo esophagogastric junction cancer after initial operation reduces the difficulty of operation and decreases the positive rate of margin.

ABSTRACT
Object:To investigate the impact of carbon nanoparticle tracing on the number of lymph nodes harvested in obese patients during radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer.Methods:Clinical data of 127 patients undergoing D 2 radical gastrectomy in the Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Zhengzhou University from Jan 2015 to Dec 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. According to whether the patients were injected with carbon nano particles during operation, they were divided into two groups: 64 patients without carbon nano particles during operation served as control group; 63 patients with carbon nano particles were included into experimental group. Results:The operation time of the control group was (160±31) min and that of the experimental group was (168±28) min ( t=-1.521, P=0.445). Intraoperative blood lose in the control group was (234±82) ml and that in the experimental group was (238±84) ml ( t=-0.295, P=0.846). The number of lymph nodes harvested in the first station, in the second station, the number of total lymph nodes and the number of lymph nodes with diameter <5 mm in the control group were less than those in the experimental group(10.4±3.8 vs. 24.5±10.6, t=-10.054),(6.6±2.8 vs. 16.8±7.3, t=-10.381),(17.1±6.4 vs. 41.2±17.6, t=-10.293),(3.9±2.5 vs. 21.2±9.1, t=-14.662) (all P<0.05), while the number of positive lymph nodes was not statistically different between the two groups all (5.9±6.2 vs. 4.2±3.4, t=-1.963, P>0.05). Black staining of lymph nodes in nano carbon group: 1 542 black stained lymph nodes were detected in the experimental group, the black staining rate of lymph nodes was 59.44% (1 542/2 594). Conclusion:Intraoperative application of carbon nanoparticles can significantly increase the number of harvested lymph nodes in obese (BMI≥25 kg/m 2) gastric cancer patients after radical resection.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To compare surgical methods and clinical efficacy among different types of cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP).Methods:A total of 158 patients with CSP who received treatment in Yuncheng Central Hospital from January 2016 to June 2019 were included in this study. According to Expert Consensus on Diagnosis and Treatment of Cesarean Scar Pregnancy (2016 version), type I CSP was found in 55 patients, type II in 86 patients and type III in 17 patients. These patients were divided into groups A (ultrasound-guided suction curettage), B (uterine artery chemoembolization + ultrasound-guided suction curettage) and C (laparoscopic scar pregnancy lesion resection + scar repair) according to different surgical methods. The amount of intraoperative blood loss, the difference in human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) level between before and after surgery, the time to postoperative HCG level returning to normal level, menstruation recovery, and re-pregnancy were compared between groups.Results:The amount of intraoperative blood loss in the groups A, B and C was (43.33 ± 72.31) mL, (34.41 ± 17.16) mL, (65.71 ± 70.52) mL, respectively. There was significant difference between groups ( F = 8.51, P = 0.014]. The difference in HCG level between before and after surgery in groups A, B and C was (0.64 ± 0.18), (0.79 ± 0.10), (0.76 ± 0.19), respectively. There was significant difference in the difference in HCG level between groups ( F = 19.21, P < 0.001). There was significant difference in the incidence of postoperative menstrual volume reduction between group B and the other two groups ( χ2 = 6.73, P = 0.003). After surgery, intrauterine pregnancy occurred in 12 patients, including 8 patients in group A (type I CSP in 2 patients, type II CSP in 3 patients, type III CSP in 3 patients), 4 patients in group B (type I CSP in 3 patients, type II CSP in 1 patient). Finally, full-term fetus delivery by cesarean section was performed in 6 patients (4 patients in group A and 2 patients in group B). Conclusion:Uterine artery chemoembolization combined with uterine curettage had less blood loss, during surgery and leads to an obvious decrease in HCG level, but it can result in reduction of menstrual volume. Ultrasound-guided suction curettage is preferred for type I and type II CSP. Balloon compression can be used to stop bleeding if massive bleeding occurs. Laparoscopic scar pregnancy lesion resection plus scar repair is recommended for type III CSP.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the application value of one-stitch prophylactic ileostomy in late ileostomy closure.Methods:The prospective randomized control study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 141 patients with rectal cancer who underwent low anterior resection combined with prophylactic ileostomy in the Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2016 to July 2020 were selected. There were 127 patients being selected after excluding 14 cases who did not undergo ileostomy closure. Patients undergoing one-stitch prophylactic ileostomy were divided into observation group, and patients undergoing traditional ileostomy were divided into control group. Observation indicators: (1) grouping situations of the enrolled patients; (2) surgical situations of ileostomy closure; (3) postoperative situations; (4) follow-up. Follow-up was conducted using outpatient examination and telephone interview once a month after low anterior resection combined with prophylactic ileostomy to detect complication and death of patients. The end point was at 3 months after ileostomy closure. The follow-up was up to July 2020. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean±SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( P25, P75) or M (range), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Comparison of ordinal data between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Results:(1) Grouping situations of the enrolled patients: a total of 127 patients were selected for eligibility, aged from 31 to 83 years, with a median age of 64 years. Of 127 patients, there were 66 cases in observation group and 61 cases in control group. (2) Surgical situations of ileostomy closure: all patients from the two groups underwent ileostomy closure successfully. The incision length, operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, cases with abdominal adhesion degree as slight adhesion or obvious adhesion were 4.25 cm(4.00 cm, 5.00 cm), 48.00 minutes(33.75 minutes, 58.00 minutes), 30 mL(20 mL, 50 mL), 34, 32 of the observation group, versus 7.50 cm(7.00 cm, 8.50 cm), 70.00 minutes(57.00 minutes, 80.00 minutes), 30 mL(30 mL, 50 mL), 13, 48 of the control group, showing significant differences between the two groups ( Z=-9.549, -6.133, -2.758, χ2=12.405, P<0.05). (3) Postoperative situations: cases with incision infection of the observation group and the control group were 5 and 13, respectively, showing a significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=4.917, P<0.05). (4) Follow-up: all the 127 patients were followed up for 6-21 months, with a median follow-up time of 10 months. During the follow-up, 3 cases of the control group had postoperative incisional hernia and were cured after conservative treatment. None of patient had anastomotic leakage related complications or died during the follow-up. Conclusion:The one-stitch preventive ileostomy has the advantage of ileostomy closure, which can reduce the operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss and shorten the incision length effectively, so as to reduce the incidence of postoperative incision infection related complications.

ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate whether adjuvant chemotherapy could be beneficial for patients with pT1N1M0 (stage ⅠB) gastric cancer.Methods:From Jan 2010 to Dec 2016, 185 patients with pT1N1M0 gastric cancer who were surgically resected at Henan Cancer Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into chemotherapy group ( n=100) and non chemotherapy group ( n=85). Results:For disease-free survival (DFS) analysis, univariate survival analysis showed that age, examined lymph nodes, vascular invasion, nerve invasion and adjuvant chemotherapy were associated with DFS (all P<0.05); multivariate analysis showed that lymph node resection ≥ 16 ( HR=0.363, 95% CI: 0.160-0.827, P=0.016), vascular invasion ( HR=4.117, 95% CI: 1.796-9.436, P=0.001) and postoperative chemotherapy ( HR=4.530, 95% CI: 1.932-10.622, P=0.001) were independent risk factors for DFS. For disease-specific survival (DSS) analysis, univariate survival analysis showed that lymph node resection, vascular invasion, nerve invasion and adjuvant chemotherapy were associated with DSS; multivariate analysis showed that lymph node resection ≥ 16 ( HR=0.344, 95% CI: 0.144-0.822, P=0.016), vascular invasion ( HR=5.113, 95% CI: 2.029-12.887, P=0.001) and postoperative chemotherapy ( HR=4.694, 95% CI: 1.854-11.888, P=0.001)were independent risk factors for DSS. According to examined lymph nodes and vascular invasion , pT1N1M0 patients were divided into three risk categories (high, medium and low). DFS and DSS were significantly different among the three risk groups (all P<0.001, respectively). Conclusion:pT1N1M0 gastric cancer patients are expected to benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy. Patients with less than 16 lymph nodes and vascular invasion may be particularly suitable for adjuvant chemotherapy.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the clinical significance of MRI dynamic enhancement in defining the upper edge of adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction.Methods:The clinical data of 73 patients with adenocarcinoma on the esophagogastric junction operated from Jul 2018 to Aug 2019 in the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent MRI examination within one week before surgery. First, the T 2WI, diffusion-weighted imaging and dynamic enhanced images of each patient were carefully observed to define the tumor location, size, shape, signal and enhancement mode, then the distances between the upper edge of the tumor and the cardiac incisure on MRI dynamic enhancement were measured independently, and compared with the measured distance in surgical fresh specimens. Results:The mean location of tumor upper edge measured in MRI of 73 patients was (1.75±1.98)cm, while measured in the surgical specimen was (1.72±1.97)cm. There was no significant difference between the two groups ( t=0.572, P=0.569). The intraclass correlation efficient between the two groups was excellent (ICC=0.974, 95% CI: 0.959-0.984, P<0.01). Conclusion:The measurement result of tumor upper edge in MRI is basically consistent with that of surgical specimens. MRI can be used to locate the tumor upper edge for adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction before operation.

ABSTRACT
Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and perioperative safety of FLOT regimen in neoadjuvant chemotherapy for gastric adenocarcinoma.Methods:Data of 128 cases of neoadjuvant chemotherapy for gastric adenocarcinoma at the General Surgery Department of He′nan Cancer Hospital from Jan2018 to July 2019 were divided into FLOT group and SOX/XELOX group.Results:The disease control rate in the FLOT group was 81%, while that in the SOX/XELOX group was only 60% ( P=0.040). In terms of TRG classification and ypT staging, the proportion of TRG0 / 1 in the FLOT group was 49%, which was significantly higher than 21% in the SOX / XELOX group ( P=0.001). In the FLOT group, ypT 0-4 was 2, 10, 8, 17 and 6, respectively, while in the SOX/XELOX group, ypT 0-4 was 1, 9, 15, 26 and 34, respectively, ( P=0.022). In the FLOT group, ypTNM stages Ⅰ, Ⅱ, and Ⅲ were 11, 20, and 12, respectively, while in the SOX/XELOX group, ypTNM stages Ⅰ, Ⅱ, and Ⅲ were 12, 30, and 43, respectively ( P=0.040). Complications occurred in 10 patients (23%) in the FLOT group and 18 patients (21%) in the SOX/XELOX group ( P>0.05). Conclusions:FLOT neoadjuvant chemotherapy for advanced gastric adenocarcinoma does not increase the incidence of perioperative complications while effecting tumor regression and downstaging compared to SOX/XELOX regimen.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effects of preoperative endoscopic mucosal injection of carbon nanoparticle tracer and intraoperative serosa injection of carbon nanoparticle tracer on the acquisition of lymph nodes in total gastrectomy for gastric cancer.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinical data of 118 patients with gastric cancer who underwent total gastrectomy in the Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Zhengzhou University between May 2017 and April 2018 were collected. There were 79 males and 39 females, aged from 26 to 81 years, with an average age of 59 years. Of 118 patients, 56 patients undergoing preoperative endoscopic mucosal injection of carbon nanoparticle tracer were divided into observation group and 62 patients undergoing intraoperative serosa injection of carbon nanoparticle tracer were divided into control group. Observation indicators: the total number of lymph node dissected, the number of positive lymph node dissected, the number of lymph node dissected at the first station and the number of lymph node dissected at the second station. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the independent-sample t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M (range), and comparison between groups was analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Comparison of ordinal data was analyzed using the rank sum test. Results:The total number of lymph node dissected, the number of positive lymph node dissected, the number of lymph node dissected at the first station, the number of lymph node dissected at the second station of the observation group were 48±16, 3(range, 0-25), 26±9, 23±7, respectively. The above indicators of the control group were 41±13, 4(range, 0-28), 25±8, 16±5, respectively. There were significant differences in the total number of lymph node dissected and the number of lymph node dissected at the second station between the two groups ( t=2.494, 6.588, P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in the number of positive lymph node dissected and the number of lymph node dissected at the first station between the two groups ( Z=0.747, t=1.689, P>0.05). Conclusions:Carbon nanoparticle labeled lymph node staining using preoperative endoscopic mucosal injection of carbon nanoparticle tracer or intraoperative serosa injection of carbon nanoparticle tracer is safe and effective in total gastrectomy for gastric cancer. Compared with intraoperative serosa injection of carbon nanoparticle tracer, preoperative endoscopic mucosal injection of carbon nanoparticle tracer can increase the total number of lymph node dissected, especially the number of lymph node dissected at the second station of gastric cancer.
ABSTRACT
HDA9, a member of the deacetylase family, plays a vital role in regulating plant flowering time through flowering integrator SOC1 and AGL24. However, it remains elusive how HDA9 interacts with SOC1 and AGL24 in flowering time control. Here, HDA9 was cloned in Brassica juncea and then its three active sites were separately replaced with Ala via overlap extension PCR. Thus, mutants of HDA9(D172A), HDA9(H174A) and HDA9(D261A) were constructed and fused into the pGADT7 vector. The yeast one-hybrid assays indicated that HDA9 mutants remained the interactions with the promoters of SOC1 and AGL24. Furthermore, the aforementioned results were confirmed in the dual luciferase assays. Interestingly, the DNA-protein interactions were weakened significantly due to the mutation in the three active sites of HDA9. It suggested that flowering signal integrator SOC1 and AGL24 were regulated by the key amino acid residues of 172th, 174th and 261th in HDA9. Our results provide valuable information for the in-depth study of the biological function and molecular regulation of HDA9 in Brassica juncea flowering time control.

ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the performance of an enhanced fluorescent staining for the rapid diagnosis of invasive mycosis, especially rare cases, considering the traditional culture method always leads to delays in clinical diagnosis for its time consuming. Methods Cases of invasive mycosis identified by fluorescent staining in our hospital from September, 2017 to September, 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Three rare in-vasive infections were reported in this study. Clinical specimens were pretreated using standard procedures and then smeared on slides along with the enhanced fluorescent dye. Species of the pathogens were identified accord-ing to their morphology under fluorescent microscope. The traditional culture method was used as a standard method to identify the pathogenic species based on their colony morphology, followed by PCR and sequencing analysis for further confirmation. Results Three cases of invasive mycosis caused by rare pathogens of Talaro-myces marneffei, Mucorales and Prototheca were rapidly diagnosed with the fluorescent staining method. Sequen-cing results indicated the species were Talaromyces marneffei, Rhizopus arrhizus and Prototheca wickerhamii. Conclusions Fluorescent staining is a rapid, economic and direct method for the diagnosis of invasive mycosis. The morphology of fungi is clear and easy to identify after fluorescence staining, which could be used for indica-tive diagnosis of highly suspected invasive mycosis and serve as an important complement to the traditional cul-ture method, especially for the diagnosis of rare or uncultured fungal pathogens.

ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the role of telehealth?based dialysis registration systems in real?time and dynamic reflection of renal anemia in hemodialysis (HD) patients, and discuss the prospect of its application in dialysis registration management. Methods The Red China project was to build up a dialysis registration system based on the WeChat mobile terminal platform. Demographic and baseline laboratory parameters such as age, gender, primary disease, dialysis age, creatinine were recorded in this system. Hemoglobin (Hb) level was monthly recorded. The platform generated Hb statistics report for each HD center monthly, including the detection rate, target rate and the distribution level of Hb, and released it to physicians through the WeChat terminal of mobile phone. After that, physicians could change the treatment of anemia individually on basis of this report. Here the demographic and baseline laboratory parameters, the detection rate, target rate, the average level and the distribution of Hb from June 2015 to October 2017 after the project launched were analyzed. Results From June 2015 to October 2017, 8392 maintenance HD patients from 28 HD centers in Shanghai were enrolled, of whom 5059(60.3％) were male.The average rate age was (60.5 ± 13.7) years old. Baseline average Hb was (108.3±16.0) g/L. Baseline detection rate and target rate were 54.2％and 47.5％, respectively. After 28 months follow?up, the detection rate of Hb increased from 54.2％ to 73.6％ (P<0.001), the target rate of Hb increased from 47.5％ to 56.1％ (P<0.001), and the level of average Hb rose from (108.3±16.0) g/L to (110.7±16.0) g/L. The difference between average Hb in two consecutive months was less than 1.3 g/L. Conclusions The telehealth?based dialysis registration system can timely report the anemia situation of HD patients, which may improve the awareness rate of anemia, the degree of attention and the compliance of anemia monitoring, so as to improve the detection rate and target rate of Hb and reduce the fluctuation of Hb, which helps to maintain the HD patients to correct anemia in a timely, stable and long?term way. The telehealth?based dialysis registration system, as an improved mode of dialysis registration is a promising way for long?term management of renal anemia in dialysis patients.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the technical advantages of nano carbon development combined with artery approach in lymph node sorting of rectal cancer.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From December 2015 to June 2016, 70 patients with of rectal cancer in General Surgery Department of Henan Cancer Hospital were randomly divided into nano carbon development combined with artery approach group(artery approach group) and conventional group. Specimen of artery approach group was placed on the sorting table. Anatomy was performed from the root of inferior mesenteric artery to left colonic artery, sigmoid artery and superior rectal artery. Along the arterial vessel shape, the black-stained lymph nodes and non-stained lymph nodes (perhaps pink, pale yellow, white or pale brown) were examined carefully using visual and haptic combination method for identification of lymph node. From the root of inferior mesenteric artery, central lymph nodes were sorted. Along the vessel shape, vascular lymph nodes were sorted. Intestinal lymph nodes around the rectum were examined as well. Then, specimen was reversed on the sorting table and underwent sorting as above after the examination of obverse. The conventional group received routine method. The total number, the average harvested number, the number of positive lymph nodes and the number of patients with lymph nodes less than 12 were compared between two groups.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Among 70 cases, 37 were male and 33 were female with the median age of 57(32-88) years old. Dixon resection was performed in 46 cases, and Miles resection in 24 cases. Total sorting lymph node was 1 105, including 641 of artery approach group and 464 of control group with significant difference (t=20.717, P=0.000). Lymph node sorting time of artery approach group was (12.6±3.9) minutes, which was shorter than (18.2±4.1) minutes of control group (t=12.464, P=0.000). In artery approach group, number of lymph node with diameter less than 5 mm was 142, sorting rate was 22.2%(142/641), of which 29 were positive(20.4%). In conventional group, 37 lymph nodes with diameter less than 5 mm were found, and sorting rate was 8.0%(37/464), of which 6 were positive(16.2%). Number of the first station of lymph node sorting in artery approach group and conventional group was 282(44%) and 169(36.4%); number of the second station lymph node sorting was 230(35.9%) and 180(38.8%); number of the third station lymph node sorting was 129(20.1%) and 115(24.8%).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The method of nano carbon development combined with artery approach in lymph node sorting of rectal cancer has some advantages, such as simple operation, more harvested lymph nodes, and more accurate pathological staging.</p>
