Objective: To understand the genotype distribution and transmission pattern of rubella virus (RuV) circulating in Yunnan Province. Methods: Throat swab samples were collected from rubella outbreaks and sporadic cases in nine prefectures/cities of Yunnan Province from 2011 to 2021. Virus isolation, amplification of target genes and sequence determination were performed on the RuV-positive samples. The genotypes and lineages of Yunnan strains were determined by comparing them with the reference strains, and further phylogenetic analysis was performed with Yunnan strains and strains circulating in other provinces of China during the same period. Results: RuV circulating in Yunnan province during 2011-2021 showed significant genetic diversity, and three lineages, 1E-L1, 2B-L1 and 1E-L2, were detected. Two lineage-switches were also identified, including the conversion of 1E-L1 to 2B-L1 between 2012 and 2013, and the replacement of 2B-L1 to 1E-L2 after 2018. The time of the switches was basically consistent with the outbreak in Yunnan province in 2012 and the time of the rubella reemergence and epidemic between 2018 and 2019. The amino acid sequence of RuV virus strains in Yunnan province was highly conserved, and no important functional regions were changed. Conclusions: The transmission pattern of RuV in Yunnan province is generally consistent with the epidemic trend of RuV in other provinces of China.

The circadian clock is an evolutionary molecular product that is associated with better adaptation to changes in the external environment. Disruption of the circadian rhythm plays a critical role in tumorigenesis of many kinds of cancers, including prostate cancer (PCa). Integrating circadian rhythm into PCa research not only brings a closer understanding of the mechanisms of PCa but also provides new and effective options for the precise treatment of patients with PCa. This review begins with patterns of the circadian clock, highlights the role of the disruption of circadian rhythms in PCa at the epidemiological and molecular levels, and discusses possible new approaches to PCa therapy that target the circadian clock.

We identified distinct senescence-related molecular subtypes and critical genes among prostate cancer (PCa) patients undergoing radical prostatectomy (RP) or radical radiotherapy (RT). We conducted all analyses using R software and its suitable packages. Twelve genes, namely, secreted frizzled-related protein 4 (SFRP4), DNA topoisomerase II alpha (TOP2A), pleiotrophin (PTN), family with sequence similarity 107 member A (FAM107A), C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 14 (CXCL14), prostate androgen-regulated mucin-like protein 1 (PARM1), leucine zipper protein 2 (LUZP2), cluster of differentiation 38 (CD38), cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP), vestigial-like family member 3 (VGLL3), apolipoprotein E (APOE), and aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 family member (ALDH2), were eventually used to subtype PCa patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and GSE116918, and the molecular subtypes showed good correlations with clinical features. In terms of the tumor immune environment (TME) analysis, compared with cluster 1, cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) scored significantly higher, while endothelial cells scored lower in cluster 2 in TCGA database. There was a statistically significant correlation between both CAFs and endothelial cells with biochemical recurrence (BCR)-free survival for PCa patients undergoing RP. For the GSE116918 database, cluster 2 had significantly lower levels of CAFs and tumor purity and higher levels of stromal, immune, and Estimation of STromal and Immune cells in MAlignant Tumor tissues using Expression data (ESTIMATE) scores than cluster 1; in addition, patients with high levels of CAFs, stromal scores, immune scores, and ESTIMATE scores and low levels of tumor purity tended to suffer from BCR. Based on the median of differentially expressed checkpoints, high expression of CD96, hepatitis A virus cellular receptor 2 (HAVCR2), and neuropilin 1 (NRP1) in GSE116918 and high expression of CD160 and tumor necrosis factor (ligand) superfamily member 18 (TNFSF18) in TCGA database were associated with a significantly higher risk of BCR than their counterparts. In conclusion, we first constructed distinct molecular subtypes and critical genes for PCa patients undergoing RP or RT from the fresh perspective of senescence.

Given the dual role of autophagy presenting in tumorigenesis and inhibition, we established an autophagy-related gene prognostic index (ARGPI) with validation to well predict the biochemical recurrence (BCR), metastasis, as well as chemoresistance for patients with prostate cancer (PCa) who underwent radical radiotherapy or prostatectomy. Then, Lasso and COX regression was used to develop the ARGPI. We performed the whole analyses through R packages (version 3.6.3). Secreted phosphoprotein 1 (SPP1), single-minded 2 (SIM2), serine protease inhibitor b5 (SERPINB5), aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2), and acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain 3 (ACSL3) were eventually used to establish the ARGPI score. Patients were divided into two different-risk groups based on the median ARGPI score, high-risk patients with a higher risk of BCR than low-risk patients (hazard ratio [HR]: 5.46, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 3.23-9.24). The risk of metastasis of high-risk patients was higher than low-risk patients (HR: 11.31, 95% CI: 4.89-26.12). In The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) dataset, we observed similar prognostic value of ARGPI in terms of BCR-free survival (HR: 1.79, 95% CI: 1.07-2.99) and metastasis-free survival (HR: 1.80, 95% CI: 1.16-2.78). ARGPI score showed a diagnostic accuracy of 0.703 for drug resistance. Analysis of gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) indicated that patients in the high-risk group were significantly positively related to interleukin (IL)-18 signaling pathway. Moreover, ARGPI score was significantly related to cancer-related fibroblasts (CAFs; r = 0.36), macrophages (r = 0.28), stromal score (r = 0.38), immune score (r = 0.35), estimate score (r = 0.39), as well as tumor purity (r = -0.39; all P < 0.05). Drug analysis showed that PI-103 was the common sensitive drug and cell line analysis indicated that PC3 was the common cell line of PI-103 and the definitive gene. In conclusion, we found that ARGPI could predict BCR, metastasis, and chemoresistance in PCa patients who underwent radical radiotherapy or prostatectomy.

AIM: To compare the clinical efficacy of conbercept and aflibercept in the treatment of wet age-related macular degeneration(wARMD)based on 4 consecutive intravitreal injections.METHODS: The clinical data of 108 patients(108 eyes)who were diagnosed as wARMD and treated with intravitreal injection at our hospital from January 2019 to January 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into conbercept group(54 cases, 54 eyes)and aflibercept group(54 cases, 54 eyes)according to the different injectable drugs. All patients received intravitreal injection once a month, with four consecutive injections. Follow up for 12mo to observe best corrected visual acuity(BCVA), central macular thickness(CMT), complications and recurrence before and after injection.RESULTS: BCVA and CMT of patients in the two groups at 1, 2, 5 and 8mo after injection had no between-group differences(P&#x003E;0.05), but both were significantly improved compared with those before injection(P&#x003C;0.05). By the end of follow-up, conjunctival hemorrhage occurred in 2 eyes of the conbercept group at the early stage, and increased intraocular pressure and conjunctival hemorrhage occurred respectively in 2 eyes of the aflibercept group. There were no serious complications related to drug injection such as retinal detachment, complicated cataract, endophthalmitis and retinal pigment epithelial tear in the two groups, and there was no difference in the recurrence rate between the two groups(7% vs. 6%, P=1.000).CONCLUSION: On the basis of continuous 4 times of intravitreal injection, both conbercept and aflibercept are safe and effective in the treatment of wARMD, and the efficacy is even.

Objective:To evaluate the efficiency and safety of modified endoscopic anti-reflux mucosectomy (ARMS) for refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease (rGERD) with moderate hiatus hernia.Methods:A total of 30 patients with rGERD with moderate hiatus hernia (3-5 cm) diagnosed at the Department of Gastroenterology of Northern Jiangsu People's Hospital from June 2017 to June 2020 were randomly divided into 2/3 circumferential mucosal resection group ( n=15) and 3/4 circumferential mucosal resection group ( n=15) using random number table method, and received modified ARMS of the corresponding mucosal resection range. The GERD symptoms, esophagitis under endoscopy, 24 h pH results, and lower esophageal sphincter (LES) resting pressure were compared before and after the procedure. The therapeutic effect and complications of the two groups were analyzed. Results:In 2/3 resection group, the GERD questionnaire scores (9.53±0.36 VS 11.93±0.57, t=6.874, P<0.001), acid exposure time (19.81%±1.72% VS 31.45%±2.78%, t=8.020, P<0.001) and the DeMeester score based on 24 h esophageal pH monitoring (40.98±4.55 VS 55.33±5.65, t=6.408, P<0.001) at 6 months after the treatment showed a significant reduction compared with those before. In 3/4 resection group, the GERD questionnaire scores (9.0±0.57 VS 12.47±0.68, t=8.650, P<0.001), acid exposure time (20.07%±2.19% VS 29.96%±3.00%, t=7.444, P<0.001) and the DeMeester score (33.67±3.47 VS 51.17±6.03, t=4.973, P<0.001) at 6 months after the treatment were lower than those before. There was no significant difference in the GERD questionnaire scores ( t=0.790, P=0.436), acid exposure time ( t=0.093, P=0.926) or the DeMeester score ( t=1.278, P=0.212) between the two groups at 6 months after treatment. In the two groups, there was no significant difference in the ratio of esophagitis grade C and D (10/15 VS 5/15, χ2=3.894, P=0.063; 8/15 VS 4/15, χ2=2.778, P=0.125) or LES resting pressure [3.29 (2.66,8.29) mmHg VS 3.98 (3.67,9.43) mmHg, P=0.334;5.78 (1.9,8.46) mmHg VS 5.88 (3.28,8.99) mmHg, P=0.125] before and after the treatment. No postoperative delayed bleeding or perforation was observed. The incidence of postoperative esophageal stenosis of 2/3 resection group was lower than that of the other group (1/15 VS 6/15, χ2=4.658, P=0.021). Conclusion:Modified ARMS is effective for controlling reflux symptoms and esophageal acid exposure in rGRED patients with moderate hiatus hernia (3-5 cm), but cannot significantly increase the postoperative resting pressure of LES. Compared with 3/4 circumferential mucosal resection, 2/3 circumferential mucosal resection can reduce the incidence of postoperative esophageal stenosis.

Objective: To systematically evaluate the correlation between prenatal steroid exposure and hypoglycemia in late preterm neonates. Methods: Eight databases in either Chinese or English, including PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Embase, Medline, Scopus, CNKI, Wanfang and VIP, were searched to extract the studies on the correlation between prenatal steroid exposure and hypoglycemia in late preterm neonates published from the establishment of each database to December 2022. The Meta-analysis was performed using Stata 14.0 statistical software. Results: A total of 9 studies were included in this Meta-analysis, including 6 retrospective cohort studies, 2 prospective cohort studies and 1 randomized controlled trial (RCT) study, involving 9 143 premature infants. The Meta-analysis showed that prenatal steroid exposure increased the risk of late preterm neonatal hypoglycemia (RR=1.55, 95%CI 1.25-1.91, P<0.001). The similar correlation between prenatal steroid exposure and hypoglycemia in late preterm neonates was all found in the following subgroups: North America (RR=1.57, 95%CI 1.37-1.80, P<0.001), enrolling pregnant women with gestational diabetes (RR=1.62, 95%CI 1.26-2.08, P<0.001), A-grade literature quality (RR=1.43, 95%CI 1.14-1.79, P=0.002), criteria for hypoglycemia ≤40 mg/dl (1 mg/dl=0.056 mmol/L, RR=1.49, 95%CI 1.28-1.73, P<0.001), sample size of 501-1 500 (RR=1.69, 95%CI 1.19-2.40, P=0.003) and >1 500 (RR=1.65, 95%CI 1.48-1.83, P<0.001), steroid injection dosage and frequency of 12 mg 2 times (RR=1.66, 95%CI 1.50-1.84, P<0.001), the time interval from antenatal corticosteroid administration to delivery of 24-47 h (RR=1.98, 95%CI 1.26-3.10, P=0.003), unadjusted gestational age (RR=1.78, 95%CI 1.02-3.10,P=0.043) and unadjusted birth weight (RR=1.80, 95%CI 1.22-2.66, P=0.003). Meta-regression results showed that steroid injection frequency and dose were the main sources of high heterogeneity among studies (P=0.030). Conclusion: Prenatal steroid exposure may be a risk factor for hypoglycemia in late preterm neonates.

Résumé
Human parainfluenza viruses (HPIVs) is one of the main causes of acute respiratory tract infections in children. HPIVs have been grouped into four serotypes (HPIV1~HPIV4) according to serological and genetic variation. Different serotypes of HPIVs have diverse clinical disease spectrum, epidemic characteristics and disease burden. Based on the nucleotide variation in structural protein genes, HPIVs can be further divided into distinct genotypes and subtypes with diverse temporal and spatial distribution features. The standard molecular typing methods are helpful to clarify the gene evolution and transmission patterns of HPIVs in the process of population transmission. However, the development of molecular epidemiology of HPIVs has been hindered by the lack of a standardized molecular typing method worldwide. Therefore, this study reviewed the viral characteristics, genome structure, existing genotyping methods and evolution of HPIVs, and screened the reference strains for molecular typing, so as to improve the understanding of gene characteristics and molecular typing of HPIVs, and provide an important scientific basis for the monitoring and research of molecular epidemiology of HPIVs in China.

Since January 2022, severe acute hepatitis cases with unknown etiology in children have occurred in many countries in Europe and the United States, and 43.8% of the cases were positive for human adenovirus (HAdV), and some cases were identified as HAdV-41. However, more evidences including etiology, genomics, liver pathology, and immunohistochemistry are needed to determine the main cause of this outbreak. At present, due to the lack of systematic surveillance and research on hepatitis caused by HAdV infection, it is impossible to determine whether there are similar hepatitis cases occurred in China. It is urgent to carry out HAdV virolgocial surveillance based on clinical symptom, and potential risk of HAdV hepatitis should be studied as soon as possible according to the available relevant clinical, epidemiological and virological data, as well as risk factor information, which will provide scientific and technical support for the prevention and control of HAdV-related diseases.

Objective:To evaluate the efficiency and safety of endoscopic anti-reflux mucosectomy (ARMS) for refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease (rGERD) in the absence of hiatus hernia (HH).Methods:Among 28 rGERD patients adimitted to Gastrointestinal Medical Center, Subei People's Hospital from Jan 2018 to Jun 2020 16 underwent endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and 12 did endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), The GERD symptoms, endoscopy, 24-h pH monitoring results, manometry, were compared before and after the procedure.Results:ARMS was successfully performed in all 28 patients. Three months after ARMS, 19 patients discontinued the use of pump inhibitors (PPIs), while 9 patients reduced their PPI dose. The GERD questionnaire scores, the median gastroesophageal flap valve grade, the median DeMeester score and acid exposure time based on 24 h esophageal pH monitoring were significantly lower than those before treatment [6.5±2.5 vs.13.4±3.1, 1(1-2) vs.3(1-3), 14.8(8.2-30) vs.34.6(16.2-60.7), 4.4%(1.3%-7.9%) vs. 8.7%(6.2%-13.9%),all P<0.01]. Esophageal sphincter pressure increased after ARMS, from (9.0±3.2) mmHg to (15.5±5.5) mmHg ( t=0.159, P<0.01). The operation time used in ESD was (66.9±4.5) minutes compared to EMR [(29.1±2.0) minutes]( t=13.911, P<0.001). The treatment cost of ESD was (19.9±1.6) thousand yuan vs. for EMR [(9.0±1.6) thousand yuan]( t=58.411, P<0.001). There were no major complications in both groups. Conclusions:ARMS is safe and effective for treatment of rGERD in the absence of HH, and EMR is less time-consuming and more acceptable technique.

Objective: To investigate the histopathological and hematological changes in reoperation of recurrent chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). Methods: A total of 41 patients with CRSwNP who underwent two consecutive endoscopic sinus surgeries in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from February 1999 to April 2019 were included retrospectively, including 25 males and 16 females, aged (40.7±13.6) years at the former surgery and (47.0±13.2) years at the recurrent surgery. The peripheral blood cell count results were collected. Differential inflammatory cells in nasal polyp tissue sections were counted and characteristics of tissue remodeling were scored. Paired t test was used to compare the hematological and histological data of the two surgeries in the same cohort. Spearman's rank correlation coefficient was used to determine the correlation between tissue and peripheral blood eosinophil contents. Results: In histopathological tissue sections of nasal polyps, the mean tissue eosinophil, lymphocyte and total inflammatory cell counts per high power field significantly decreased (54.04±34.67 vs 76.97±65.59, 35.27±16.61 vs 50.01±26.94, 128.88±41.32 vs 176.38±80.59, t value was 2.413, 2.923, 3.445, respectively, all P<0.05), whereas the percentages of different inflammatory cell types remained unchanged when comparing the recurrent surgery with the former surgery. There was a significant reduction of basement membrane thickness and goblet cell hyperplasia score in the recurrent surgery (1.29±0.84 vs 2.00±0.84, 1.81±1.31 vs 2.44±1.10, t value was 5.367, 2.714, respectively, all P<0.05). Subgroup analysis suggested that changes in asthmatic cases, younger cases and cases without previous surgery were more remarkable than non-asthmatics, older cases and cases with previous surgery, respectively. There was no significant change in peripheral white blood cell counts and differential cell percentages, except a small increase of blood monocyte percentage. Correlation analysis showed that tissue eosinophil content correlated positively with blood eosinophil content at each surgery. Conclusions: In the recurrent surgery of CRSwNP, tissue eosinophil, lymphocyte and total inflammatory cell counts decrease significantly compare with that of the former surgery. The histological inflammatory load decreases with improvement of tissue remodeling, which could be attributed to the integrated treatment with surgery and medications.

Objective: To investigate the difference of concentrations of specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs) derived from fatty acids in eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (ECRSwNP) and non-eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (nECRSwNP). Methods: A total of 36 patients with bilateral chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) who underwent endoscopic nasal surgeries in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from May 2019 to September 2020 were enrolled, including 27 males and 9 females, with the age from 13 to 67 years. There were 23 cases of ECRSwNP and 13 cases of nECRSwNP. At the same time, 12 control subjects were enrolled. The concentrations of multiple SPMs, including lipoxins (LXA4 and LXB4), resolvins (RvD1, RvD2, RvD3, RvD5 and RvE1), protectins (PDX) and maresins (Mar-1) in nasal polyps with different histological subtypes and normal nasal mucosa were analyzed using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The concentrations of SPMs between groups were compared using Mann-Whitney U test. Spearman's rank correlation coefficient was used to measure the correlation between the concentrations of SPMs in nasal polyps and tissue eosinophil counts. Results: The concentrations of RvD2, RvD3, RvD5, LXA4, LXB4, Mar-1 and PDX in ECRSwNP group were significantly higher than that in controls (Z value was -2.276, -2.313, -3.371, -2.094, -2.051, -3.104 and -2.294, respectively, all P<0.05). The concentrations of RvD2, RvD5, Mar-1 and PDX in ECRSwNP group were significantly higher than those in nECRSwNP group (Z value was -2.175, -2.289, -2.243 and -2.124, respectively, all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in all these SPMs between nECRSwNP and controls (all P>0.05). The concentrations of RvD2, RvD3, RvD5, LXB4, Mar-1 and PDX in nasal polyps correlated positively with tissue eosinophil counts (r value was 0.443, 0.436, 0.371, 0.502, 0.340 and 0.386, respectively, all P<0.05). Conclusions: A varienty of SPMs are elevated in ECRSwNP. Dysregulation of fatty acid metabolism might play an important role in the chronic inflammation of ECRSwNP.

Objective@#To analyze the dynamic trend of caries prevalence of permanent teeth and DMFT in the 7-year-old primary school students of Han nationality from 1991 to 2014, and to provide a basis for the development of caries prevention measures for children and adolescents.@*Methods@#A total of 100 652 students from the 7yearold age group of 30 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities in 1991, 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010 and 2014 from Physical Fitness And Health Surveillance Of Chinese School Students were selected. DMF% and DMFT were used as indicators to analyze the change trend of caries prevalence of permanent teeth and DMFT in different groups of 7-year-old primary school students of Han nationality in the past 25 years.@*Results@#During the 25 years, the DMF% of primary school students in 7 years old group showed an overall U-shaped development trend. DMF% was 7.9% in 1991, lowest at 3.2% in 2005, and 5.2% in 2014. The DMFT basically showed a steady fluctuation trend. DMFT of rural girls were higher than the other three groups.@*Conclusion@#In view of the serious caries problem among primary school students aged 7 in China, it is necessary to continue to improve oral health strategies, strengthen the publicity of prevention and treatment of caries and oral health education, increase the input of oral health resources in rural areas, reduce the prevalence of caries and protect children’s oral health.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of simultaneous heart valve surgery and coronary artery bypass surgery in the treatment of coronary heart disease with valvular disease.Methods:From January 2014 to January 2018, 60 patients with coronary heart disease and valvular heart disease who admitted to Zhejiang Lyucheng Cardiovascular Hospital were selected in the prospective study.According to the random number table method, they were randomly divided into two groups, with 30 cases in each group.The observation group underwent heart valve surgery and coronary artery bypass grafting at the same time, while the control group underwent heart valve surgery first and then coronary artery bypass grafting at intervals.The recovery after operation, cardiac function index, quality of life score and incidence of complications after operation were compared.Results:(1)The ICU monitoring time[(5.29±1.04)d], duration of mechanical ventilation[(3.95±0.98)d] and hospitalization time[(13.59±2.84)d] in the observation group were shorter than those in the control group( t=4.205, 4.015, 3.997, all P<0.05). (2) After treatment, the left ventricular ejection fraction[(49.36±6.25)%] and stroke output[(76.29±5.31)mL] of the observation group were higher than those of the control group ( t=4.066, 4.093, all P<0.05), and the level of brain natriuretic peptide[(378.32±27.82)ng/L] was lower than that of the control group ( t=4.152, P<0.05). (3) After treatment, the scores of physical health, mental health, living environment and social relations in the observation group were (89.47±8.69)points, (84.49±8.21)points, (88.16±9.24)points and (85.46±8.95)points, respectively, which were higher than those in the control group ( t=4.139, 3.753, 3.859, 4.389, all P<0.05). (4)The total incidence of postoperative complications in the observation group was 3.33%(1/30), which was lower than 20.00%(6/30) in the control group (χ 2=4.043, P<0.05). Conclusion:Simultaneous heart valve surgery and coronary artery bypass grafting can reduce the postoperative complications of patients with coronary heart disease and heart valvular disease, accelerate the recovery rate and improve the heart function and quality of life.
Résumé
Objective:To evaluate the efficiency and safety of endoscopic submucosal tunnel dissection (ESTD) on treatment of early esophageal cancer with submucosal fibrosis.Methods:In the Department of Gastroenterology of Northern Jiangsu People′s Hospital from June 2015 to Feburary 2018, data of 87 patients undergoing ESTD or endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for early esophageal cancer or precancerous lesion were collected with inclusion criteria of cancer size less than 1/3 circumference with submucosal fibrosis, which was confirmed by pathology. According to the degree of submucosal fibrosis, 60 patients had mild fibrosis (31 underwent ESTD and 29 underwent ESD), and 27 patients had severe fibrosis (16 underwent ESTD and 11 underwent ESD). The dissection speed, en bloc resection rate, complete resection rate, and the complications (including bleeding, muscularis injury, perforation, neck subcutaneous emphysema and esophageal stenosis) were compared between the two methods of dissection in the groups with same degree of submucosal fibrosis.Results:For patients with mild submucosal fibrosis, ESTD had a higher en bloc resection rate (96.8%, 30/31) and complete resection rate (96.8%, 30/31), and lower muscularis injury rate (6.5%, 2/31) than those of ESD [82.8% (24/29), 75.9% (22/29), and 17.2% (5/29), respectively, all P<0.05]. There was no difference in the dissection speed, incidence of intraoperative bleeding, perforation and postoperative esophageal stenosis between the two methods (all P>0.05), and no postoperative delayed bleeding or neck subcutaneous emphysema occurred. For patients with severe submucosal fibrosis, ESTD had a higher dissection speed (12.3±2.8 mm 2/min), and lower incidence of intraoperative bleeding (12.5%, 2/16), muscularis injury (18.8%, 3/16), perforation (6.3%, 1/16) and neck subcutaneous emphysema (6.3%, 1/16) than those of ESD [7.1±3.2 mm 2/min, 54.5% (6/11), 54.5% (6/11), 27.3% (3/11), and 27.3% (3/11)]. There was no difference in en bloc resection rate, complete resection rate, and the incidence of postoperative esophageal stenosis between the two methods, and no postoperative delayed bleeding occurred. Cancer recurred locally in 2 patients undergoing ESD and 1 patient undergoing ESTD at 12 months after the operation, and 1 patient undergoing ESTD developed metachronous cancer at 24 months after the operation. Conclusion:ESTD is safe and effective for endoscopic management of early esophageal cancer or precancerous lesion with submucosal fibrosis. Compared with standard ESD, the advantage of ESTD is more efficient for patients with mild submucosal fibrosis, and is safer for patients with severe submucosal fibrosis.
