ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of endoscopic radial incision (ERI) for congenital membranous duodenal stenosis (MDS).Methods:The clinical data of 13 children with MDS receiving ERI in the Department of Gastroenterology of Xi'an Children's Hospital from May 2017 to December 2021 were reviewed and analyzed. The perioperative management, surgical procedures, postoperative complications and follow-up were summarized.Results:There were 5 boys and 8 girls with a median disease duration of 8 (2-20) months, and the median age of diagnosis was 13 months (5-30 months). The septum of 10 cases (10/13) was located in the descending part of the duodenum, and that of 3 cases (3/13) in the horizontal part. The papilla of 1 case (1/13) opened on the septum, that of 3 cases (3/13) within 5 cm of the mouth side of the septum, and that of 9 cases (9/13) within 5 cm of the anal side of the septum. The median diameter of the septal aperture was 3 mm (2-6 mm). All 13 children successfully underwent ERI with a median operation time of 20 min (15-32 min). The average surgical incision was 3 strokes (2-4 strokes), and the endoscope with outer diameter 9.9 mm could pass stenosis after ERI. The median incision diameter was 10 mm (10-12 mm). All patients achieved relief of clinical symptoms after ERI. One patient (1/13) suffered from the postoperative delayed bleeding, which was stopped by endoscopic titanium clamping. No intestinal perforation or duodenal papilla injury occurred, and median postoperative hospital stay was 6 days (5-10 days). The upper gastrointestinal angiogram and gastroscopy were repeated 3 months after ERI, and the median diameter of stenosis was 12 mm (10-15 mm), which was significantly dilated compared with before. The mean body weight increase at 1 month after ERI was 1.20 kg (0.50-1.80 kg), and the mean body weight increase at 3 months was 3.50 kg (2.50-4.00 kg), which reached the normal body weight of the same age.Conclusion:ERI is safe and effective for the treatment of MDS in children, and shows good clinical application and promotion value.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:For dislocation of acromioclavicular joint induced by coracoclavicular ligament fracture,single EndoButton Plate reconstruction and double EndoButton Plates reconstruction are common repair methods.Further study on the stress distribution and fracture risk of the two repair methods is of great significance. OBJECTIVE:To study the biomechanical properties of the coracoclavicular ligament,and compare the fixation effect,stress distribution and failure mode of single and double EndoButton Plates reconstruction. METHODS:(1)Finite element simulation analysis:Mimics,Wrap and SolidWorks were used to establish normal coracoclavicular ligament,single EndoButton Plate reconstruction and double EndoButton Plates reconstruction.Ansys software was used to analyze the stress and deformation of the scapula and clavicle of each model under vertical load.(2)Sample experiment:Fifteen intact scapular-clavicle specimens were randomly grouped into five groups,with three specimens in each group.In group A,the acromioclavicular ligament was severed and the coracoclavicular ligament remained intact.In group B,acromioclavicular ligaments and trapeoid ligaments were severed,leaving intact conical ligaments.In group C,acromioclavicular ligaments and conical ligaments were cut off,and the intact traprex ligaments were retained.In group D,acromioclavicular and coracoclavicular ligaments were severed,and coracoclavicular ligaments were repaired by single EndoButton Plate reconstruction.In group E,acromioclavicular and coracoclavicular ligaments were severed,and the coracoclavicular ligaments were repaired by double EndoButton Plates reconstruction.The mechanical experiment was carried out by a mechanical testing machine to analyze the biomechanical status,stress distribution and failure patterns of the scapular-clavicle and clavicle. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Finite element simulation analysis:The average stress of coracoclavicular ligament attached specimens was the lowest,and the risk of coracoclavicular fracture was less than that of single and double EndoButton Plates reconstruction.The mean stress of the coracoid process was similar in single and double EndoButton Plates reconstruction,and the fracture risk was similar.(2)Sample experiment:In groups A,B,C,D and E,the stiffness of specimens was(26.4±3.5),(19.8±2.8),(21.3±3.2),(57.7±4.1),and(46.2±2.8)N/mm,respectively;the ultimate loads were(545.5±53.7),(360.1±42.1),(250.9±44.4),(643.5±39.1),and(511.9±31.7)N,respectively;global stiffness in groups D and E was higher than that in group A(P=0.000 06,0.000 3);ultimate load in group D was higher than that in group A(P<0.05);the ultimate load was not significantly different between the group E and group A(P>0.05).Ligament fracture was observed in groups A,B and C and coracoid process fracture was found in groups D and E.(3)These results suggest that from the biomechanical analysis,Single EndoButton Plate reconstruction and double EndoButton Plates reconstruction are effective treatment techniques for coracoclavicular ligament fracture in acromioclavicular joint dislocation,but increase the risk of fracture.The double EndoButton Plates reconstruction dispersed the stress of the steel plate and reduced the contact force between the steel plate and bone,but slightly reduced the ultimate bearing capacity.Single and double EndoButton Plates reconstruction should be selected according to the actual clinical situation.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effect of infliximab combined with miRNA-21 on lung cancer A549 cells.Methods:A549 cells were cultured in vitro and then divided into four groups (blank group, infliximab group, miRNA-21 inhibitor group and combined treatment group) ; CCK-8 test was used to detect cell proliferation; Flow cytometry experiments was employed to detect apoptosis; Western blot was used to detect protein expression.Results:The survival rates of A549 cells in the miRNA-21 inhibitor group and the combined treatment group were 48.67%±2.83% and 25.69%±1.98%, which were significantly different ( P<0.001) ; The proportion of A549 apoptotic cells in the miRNA-21 inhibitor group and the combined treatment group were 46.73%±2.18% and 76.58%±3.67%, respectively, with significant differences ( P<0.001) ; The expression of Caspase-3 (1.21±0.26 vs 0.57±0.07) and Bad (1.08±0.11 vs 0.52±0.06) in the combined treatment group was significantly higher than that of the miRNA-21 inhibitor group in the detection of apoptosis-related proteins, and the expression of Bcl-2 was significantly reduced, with a significant difference ( P<0.001). In the combined treatment group, the expression levels of TNF-α (0.63±0.11 vs 1.23±0. 22, 1.18±0.17, 1.14±0.17) and NF-κB p65 (0.34±0.08 vs 1.31±0.09, 1.29±0.12, 1.11±0.06) were both reduced, and there was a significant difference compared with the other three groups ( P<0.001) . Conclusion:Infliximab combined with miRNA-21 inhibitors can play a synergistic role in lung cancer cells, inhibit the TNF-α/NF-κB signaling pathway, regulate the expression of the Bcl-2 family and Caspase-3, and promote apoptosis, thereby inhibiting lung cancer A549 cell proliferation.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the diagnostic and therapeutic value of one-time biliopancreatic-duct-imaging-system (eyeMax)-assisted endoscopic retrograde appendicitis therapy (ERAT) for children.Methods:A total of 11 children who were diagnosed as having uncomplicated acute appendicitis by imaging in Xi′an Children′s Hospital from August to November 2022 were enrolled. All patients received subscope-assisted ERAT. Subscope was intubated into the appendix cavity to observe the mucosa directly. Appendicitis was treated through cleansing, fecalith extraction, stent drainage. The clinical manifestations under subscope were recorded, as well as the treatment success rate, intubation success rate, the effective rate, complication incidence during and after the operation.Results:The age of 11 children was 7.93±2.67 years old. Appendix intubation was successful in all patients. Congestion and swelling of the mucosa in appendiceal orifice and appendix cavity were seen under the subscope in 11 children. There were 6 cases with appendiceal fecaliths, 8 cases with pus and 6 cases with luminal distortion or stenosis. Perforation was observed in 1 case during the operation and no other complication occurred. All patients were treated under subscope, including flushing appendiceal cavity (11 cases), fecalith extraction with extraction basket (3 cases), and appendiceal drainage with stenting (2 cases). The symptoms and signs were relieved after the operation, and the effective rate within 48 hours was 10/11. There were no procedure-related complications or recurrence during postoperative follow-up for 1 week to 4 months.Conclusion:Acute appendicitis could be diagnosed by observing the appendix cavity directly under one-time biliopancreatic-duct-imaging-system-assisted ERAT, and also could be treated with the system, where appendix could be preserved and radiation damage could be avoided with safety and effectiveness.

ABSTRACT
Objective:To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of capsule endoscopy for the diagnosis of intestinal diseases in children.Methods:Clinical data of 113 pediatric patients who received capsule endoscopy in Xi'an Children's Hospital from October 2018 to September 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The completion rate, passage time of stomach and small intestine, lesion detection rate, adverse reactions and complications of capsule endoscopy were analyzed.Results:Among 113 pediatric patients, 78 (69.03%) were male and 35 (30.97%) were female. The age was (99.8±44.7) months (9-195 months), and 31 (27.43%) were under 7 years old. The minimum weight was 9 kg and the minimum height was 70 cm. Eighty-seven pediatric patients (76.99%) swallowed capsules orally (the oral group) with the minimum age of 4 years and 3 months. Capsules were implanted in 26 pediatric patients (23.01%) under gastroscopy (the gastroscopic group), with the maximum age of 9 years and 2 months. Unexplained abdominal pain (47.79%) and unexplained gastrointestinal bleeding (31.89%) were common in the pediatric patients. The completion rate of capsule endoscopy was 97.35% (110/113), and the detection rate of lesions in small intestine was 31.81% (35/110). The passage time of small intestine in the gastroscopic group was significantly longer than that of the oral group (461.04±129.27 min VS 288.23±107.84 min, t=5.646, P<0.01). There was no significant difference in the passage time of stomach or small intestine among different genders, different ages or different endoscopic examination results ( P>0.05). The positive results of capsule were not correlated with the method of ingestion ( P=0.401, OR=2.562, 95% CI:0.284-23.077), gender ( P=0.154, OR=2.352, 95% CI:0.726-7.616), age ( P=0.949, OR=1.007, 95% CI:0.816-1.242), examination reason ( P=0.246) or small intestine passage time ( P=0.219, OR=1.003, 95% CI:0.998-1.008). No complications such as capsule retention occurred in any pediatric patient. Conclusion:Capsule endoscopy in children is noninvasive, rapid and simple, which can improve the diagnostic rate of small intestinal diseases in children, and can be further promoted in pediatric patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To evaluate high resolution esophageal manometry (HREM) in peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) for pediatric achalasia of cardia (AC).Methods:Data of 30 AC children who received POEM in Xi′an Children′s Hospital from January 2013 to September 2019 were reviewed. HREM was performed before and 6 months after POEM. Preoperative and postoperative lower esophageal sphincter pressure (LESP), 4-second integrated relaxation pressure (4sIRP), Eckardt scores and nutritional status were compared.Results:Children with AC aged between 4-14 years. Postoperative LESP was 5.50±1.13 mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), which was significantly lower than that before operation (26.23±4.47 mmHg) with significant difference ( t=-24.623, P<0.001). Postoperative median 4sIRP was 5 mmHg, which was 20 mmHg lower than that before operation (25 mmHg) with significant difference ( Z=-4.786, P<0.001). Postoperative median Eckardt symptom score decreased significantly compared with that before (1 VS 8, Z=-4.796, P<0.001). Severe malnutrition of the AC children improved evidently to normal( Z=-5.166, P<0.001). Conclusion:POEM can significantly improve the characteristics of esophageal dynamics in children with AC, and HREM can be an important indicator for follow-up evaluation of POEM.
ABSTRACT
Centralized drug procurement in large quantities is a major step to deepen the medical and healthcare system reform, to improve the mechanism of drug price formation, and to give full play to the role of medical insurance in guiding drug prices in China. Combined with the practice of centralized drug purchasing in public hospitals, the authors sorted out the practical problems and causes from four aspects which affected the implementation of centralized drug purchasing policy in public hospitals: selection on centrally purchased drugs, procurement and supply, clinical use, and hospital financial operation. On this basis, suggestions were put forward to provide reference for the normalization of centralized drug procurement work, such as coordinating national and regional drug collection policies, reasonably setting distribution costs, extending the agreed procurement period, and carrying out special evaluation for drug collection.
ABSTRACT
The laterodorsal tegmentum (LDT) is a brain structure involved in distinct behaviors including arousal, reward, and innate fear. How environmental stimuli and top-down control from high-order sensory and limbic cortical areas converge and coordinate in this region to modulate diverse behavioral outputs remains unclear. Using a modified rabies virus, we applied monosynaptic retrograde tracing to the whole brain to examine the LDT cell type specific upstream nuclei. The LDT received very strong midbrain and hindbrain afferents and moderate cortical and hypothalamic innervation but weak connections to the thalamus. The main projection neurons from cortical areas were restricted to the limbic lobe, including the ventral orbital cortex (VO), prelimbic, and cingulate cortices. Although different cell populations received qualitatively similar inputs, primarily via afferents from the periaqueductal gray area, superior colliculus, and the LDT itself, parvalbumin-positive (PV) GABAergic cells received preferential projections from local LDT neurons. With regard to the different subtypes of GABAergic cells, a considerable number of nuclei, including those of the ventral tegmental area, central amygdaloid nucleus, and VO, made significantly greater inputs to somatostatin-positive cells than to PV cells. Diverse inputs to the LDT on a system-wide level were revealed.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of endoscopic radial incision ( ERI) for treatment of benign esophageal stenosis in children. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on clinical data of 20 children with benign esophageal stenosis who underwent ERI from January 2013 to May 2018 in Xi′an Children′s Hospital. The procedure, improvement of clinical symptoms, and complications related to the operation were analyzed. Results All 20 patients were successfully treated with ERI, with median operation time of 10 min (5-25 min), and median number of narrow ring incision of 4 times (1-8 times) . No fever, poststernal pain, bleeding or perforation was found in any child after operation. The hospital stay was 4-7 days, with a median of 4. 5 days. The postoperative follow-up was 3-24 months, with an average of 7. 9 months. At one month after operation, the stenosis diameter of 20 cases was enlarged[ 1. 0 cm ( 0. 6-1. 5 cm) VS 0. 3 cm ( 0. 1-0. 5 cm) , t=11. 018, P<0. 001] , and dysphagia score was lower[ 0 ( 0-2) VS 2. 5 (2-4), Z=4. 027, P<0. 001] compared with that before. The median weight of 19 children increased by 2 kg ( 1-4 kg ) three months after operation. There was no significant correlation between improvement of dysphagia after ERI and sex, age, times of preoperative treatment and diameter of stenosis ( all P>0. 05) , but there was a negative correlation between improvement of dysphagia after ERI and the length of stenosis ( r=-0. 514, P=0. 020) . Conclusion ERI is safe and effective for treatment of benign esophageal stenosis in children, which can be recommended in clinic.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the anatomic relationships between the portals and radial nerve of three different operations of antrolateral approach elbow arthroscopy.Methods The dissections were pedormed in 10 formalin soaked adult cadaver elbows.The distances from the three different antrolateral portals to the radial nerve in extension and flexion 90° position were measured.The portal A was located at 3 cm distal and 1 cm anterior to the lateral epicondyle;the portal B was located at 2 cm distal and 2 cm anterior to the lateral epicondyle;the portal C,1 cm distal and 1 cm anterior to the lateral epicondyle.Results The nearest distances from the anterolateral portal A,B,and C to the radial nerve in extension position were (2.30 ± 0.95) mm,(3.00 ± 1.56) mm,and (3.60 ± 1.65) mm,with significant differences (F =11.097,P =0.001).Statistical difference in distances from the anterolateral portal to the radial nerve between portal A and C was found (P =0.006).No statistically significant difference was seen between A and B or B and C (PA-B =0.134,PB-c =0.072).The distances from the anterolateral portal A,B,and C to the radial nerve in flexion 90° position were (4.40 ± 2.01) mm,(6.10 ± 1.79) mm,and (7.90 ± 1.85) mm,with significant differences (F =54.775,P =0.000).There were statistically significant difference among the three approaches (PA-B =0.000,PA-c =0.000,PB-c =0.002).The distances increased when the position changed from extension to flexion 90° for portal A (t =-5.161,P =0.001),portal B (t=-8.188,P=0.000),and portal C (t =-10.167,P =0.000).Conclusion The anterolateral portal 1 cm distal and 1 cm anterior to the lateral epicondyle is the safest apporach.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the influencing factors related to the complications of esophageal foreign body in children. Methods Data of 150 children with esophageal foreign bodies admitted to Xi'an Children' s Hospital from January 2012 to June 2015 were included in the retrospective analysis. Related clinical variables ( gender, age, location, time, size, sharpness, quality, and severity of complications) were statistically analyzed. Results Spearman correlation analysis showed that the age of children was negatively correlated with esophageal foreign body complications (r=-0. 187, P=0. 022), incarceration time ( r=0. 456, P<0. 001) , sharpness ( r=0. 384, P<0. 001) and quality ( r=0. 234, P=0. 004) was positively correlated with the incidence of complications. Non?conditional Logistic regression analysis for polytomous ordinal response showed that incarceration longer than 8 h yielded complication risks 9. 507 times as much as that less than 8 h ( 95%CI:2. 982?30. 309) . Obtuse or sharp foreign body yielded risk 142. 751 times as smooth foreign body did (95%CI:13. 736?1483. 562). Conclusion Incidence and severity of complications of esophageal foreign body in children are closely related to the age of the children, incarceration time and the degree of sharpness. For patients of less than 1 year old, incarceration for more than 8 hours, with an obtuse or sharp foreign body, early diagnosis and treatment is essential.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To establish an algorithm on the turnover ratio of drug inventory. Methods: According to the employed method in the commercial field on calculating the inventory turnover and the requirements in the review of three level hospitals by the National Health and Family Planning Commission, an appropriate method for calculating the turnover rate of drug inventory was de-duced. Meanwhile, a corresponding program was performed for the verification. Results:Only the day turnover could be obtained ac-cording to the algorithms on the inventory turnover in commercial field, and the circumstances of the sales could be replaced by the cur-rent sales to obtain the statistics at any given time, while there was remarkable difference between the calculated results and the actual results of some species. If the time in store was chosen as the statistical index, the problem could be avoided. Conclusion:The meth-od with drug storage time as the statistical index can calculate the inventory turnover ratio at any time precisely, which also can be pro-grammed automatically, and the proportion of available varieties meets the inspection requirements.

ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:Legacy posterior stabilized prosthesis has advantages in theoretic design,in vitro kinematics and abrasion, but it remains unclear whether its clinical outcomes for vaglus knee deformity are better than Legacy constrained condylar knee prosthesis. OBJECTIVE:To explore the midterm folow-up effect of Legacy posterior stabilized prosthesis in total knee arthroplasty in patients with valgus knee deformity. METHODS: From February 2006 to November 2013 in Department of Bone and Joint Surgery, Affiliated Hospital of Luzhou Medical Colege, total knee arthroplasty was used to treat valgus knee deformity in 33 cases (35 knees). Parapatelar medial approach was used. Precise osteotomy was utilized to correct limb alignment. Lateral soft tissue received selective release. Finaly, an equal type of Legacy posterior stabilized prosthesis (Zimmer, USA) was implanted and fixed with antibiotic bone cement. The differences in hospital for special surgery knee score, range of motion of knee, femoral tibial angle, and maximum flexion and extension angle, as wel as X-ray film results were compared and analyzed before and after replacement. The complications including deep vein thrombosis, peri-prosthetic infection, patelar clicking, unstable knee, and common peroneal nerve injury were recorded after surgery. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Al patients were folowed up for 24-50 months. The incision was healed in one-stage. No complications such as peri-prosthetic infection appeared. Three patients suffered from common peroneal nerve palsy, which was cured at half a year after surgery by expectant treatment such as trophic nerve. Two cases suffered from knee instability after replacement, which was improved at 1 month after external fixation with a brace. One case experienced deep vein thrombosis in the lower extremity, which was improved after treatment with low molecular weight heparin anticoagulation. During final folow-up, hospital for special surgery knee score increased from (51.85±4.15) preoperatively to (85.77±2.50) postoperatively (P < 0.01). There were excelent in 20 knees, good in 11 knees, with an excelent and good rate of 89%. X-ray films showed that hindlimb alignment was apparently corrected, prosthetic position was good, no loosening occurred. These data indicate that total knee arthroplasty, using parapatelar medial approach, obtained good correction outcomes through the accurate amputation to correct hindlimb alignment and selective release of the soft tissue with Legacy posterior stabilized prosthesis in the treatment of valgus knee deformity.
