Application of OrVil TM in patients with recurrent or denovo esophagogastric junction cancer / 中华普通外科杂志

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.

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.

Research on Early Warning Mechanism and Model of Liver Cancer Rehabilitation Based on CS-SVM.

Since the 20th century, cancer has become one of the main diseases threatening human health. Liver cancer is a malignant tumor with extremely high clinical morbidity and fatality rate and easy recurrence after surgery. Research on the postoperative recurrence time and recurrence location of patients with liver cancer has a crucial influence on the postoperative intervention of patients. Evaluation of the clinical manifestations of patients after liver cancer surgery is conducted according to medical knowledge or national standards to determine the main factors affecting liver cancer rehabilitation. In order to better study the mechanism of liver cancer recurrence, this paper uses CS-SVM to predict the recurrence time of liver cancer patients, so as to timely intervene the patients. There are five evaluation indicators which are basic indicators, immune indicators, microenvironment indicators, psychological indicators, and nutritional indicators, respectively. This paper collects the clinical evaluation data of postoperative follow-up visits for patients with liver cancer in a hospital, improves the parameter selection process of the support vector machine by using the search ability of the cuckoo algorithm, and establishes an algorithm-optimized prediction model of support vector machine for the prognosis of liver cancer to predict the location and approximate time of recurrence. According to the clinical evaluation data of patients with liver cancer after surgery, logistics regression, BP neural network, and other related methods are used to predict the prognosis of liver cancer patients after surgery. The prediction effects of several methods are compared, and the superiority of the model is discussed. At the end of this article, we conducted an empirical analysis on the clinical evaluation data of patients with liver cancer after surgery. For the collected samples of 776 liver cancer recurrences after surgery, the established liver cancer prognosis outcome prediction model was used to predict the recurrence time and recurrence location, respectively. The mean square error of recurrence time prediction is 9.2101, which is much smaller than the prediction mean square error of BP neural network of 177.9451; the prediction accuracy of recurrence location is 95.7%, which is much higher than the 63.14% of logistic regression. The empirical analysis results show that the improved support vector machine model based on cuckoo established in this paper can effectively predict the time and location of cancer recurrence.

MRI dynamic enhancement in defining the upper edge of adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction / 中华普通外科杂志

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.

A study on candidates benefiting from adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with pT1N1M0 gastric cancer / 中华普通外科杂志

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.

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.

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.

Myeloid-specific targeting of Notch ameliorates murine renal fibrosis via reduced infiltration and activation of bone marrow-derived macrophage

Macrophages play critical roles in renal fibrosis. However, macrophages exhibit ontogenic and functional heterogeneities, and which population of macrophages contributes to renal fibrosis and the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, we genetically targeted Notch signaling by disrupting the transcription factor recombination signal binding protein-Jκ (RBP-J), to reveal its role in regulation of macrophages during the unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO)-induced murine renal fibrosis. Myeloid-specific disruption of RBP-J attenuated renal fibrosis with reduced extracellular matrix deposition and myofibroblast activation, as well as attenuated epithelial-mesenchymal transition, likely owing to the reduced expression of TGF-β. Meanwhile, RBP-J deletion significantly hampered macrophage infiltration and activation in fibrotic kidney, although their proliferation appeared unaltered. By using macrophage clearance experiment, we found that kidney resident macrophages made negligible contribution, but bone marrow (BM)-derived macrophages played a major role in renal fibrogenesis. Further mechanistic analyses showed that Notch blockade reduced monocyte emigration from BM by down-regulating CCR2 expression. Finally, we found that myeloid-specific Notch activation aggravated renal fibrosis, which was mediated by CCR2 macrophages infiltration. In summary, our data have unveiled that myeloid-specific targeting of Notch could ameliorate renal fibrosis by regulating BM-derived macrophages recruitment and activation, providing a novel strategy for intervention of this disease.

Lymph nodes sorting based on nanometer carbon staining and supplying artery distribution in right-sided colon carcinoma / 中华普通外科杂志

Objective To evaluate a novel lymph node (LN) sorting method on surgical resected sample guided by nanometer carbon staining and principle following the supplying artery tributory in rightsided colon carcinoma.Methods From May 2015 to June 2016,51 patients were randomly divided into two groups adopting traditional LN sorting method and that of a combination of nanometer carbon and artery guided.The final LN status were compared between the 2 groups.Results The total LN number and the positive LN in novel method group were higher than control group (437 vs.349,70 vs.54).The dissection time used,the number of harvested positive LN that was ＜ 5 mm were significantly different [(13.1 ± 3.2) minvs.(17.8 ±3.8)min,t=4.75,P=0.000;1.0±l.0vs.0.2 ±0.6,t=3.51,P=0.000].The number of patients with harvested LN less than 12,the rate of positive lymph nodes,the rate of metastasis were not significantly different (all P ＞ 0.05) between the two groups.Conclusions Use of nanometer carbon development combined with artery approach facilitates LN sorting,yielding more positive LNs,and increating the accuracy of pathological staging in right-sided colon cancer.

Early curative repair of urinary fistula caused by iatrogenic injury to ureter, bladder and urethra after resection of rectal cancer / 中华普通外科杂志

Objective To evaluate the result of early repair for urinary fistula caused by iatrogenic injury to ureter,bladder and urethra during resection of rectal cancer.Methods We retrospectively analyzed 26 cases of urinary fistula after resection of rectal cancer patients encountered in Department of General Surgery,Henan Tumor Hospital from October 2005 to May 2016.Urinary fistula was divided into four types according to the site of fistula.Results Surgery was performed ever after the diagnosis of the fistula was identified.In type Ⅰ fistula (6 cases of posterior urethral fistula) the treatment was stent placement and packing of the greater omentum.2 cases of bladder top fistula (type Ⅱ),were treated by fistula repair and cystostomy.Type Ⅲ involved 12 cases (bladder triangle fistula).The treatment was ureter stenting replantation,and cystostomy Type Ⅳ:ureteral fistula in 6 cases,the treatment was end-to-end anastomosis and stenting.After surgery 24 cases were cured and 2 cases (all of type Ⅲ fistula) ended up with permanent bilateral ureterocutaneostomy.Conclusion It is safe and effective to make early remedy repair for ureter,bladder and urethral fistula iatrogenically during rectal cancer resection.

Risk factors analysis of ulcerative colitis-associated colorectal cancer / 中华消化外科杂志

Objective To explore the risk factors of ulcerative colitis-associated colorectal cancer (UC-CRC).Methods The retrospective case-control study was conducted.The clinicopathological data of 536 patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) who were admitted to the Henan Tumor Hospital from March 2004 to June 2015 were collected.Observation indicators:(1) follow-up results:cases with follow-up,follow-up time,cases of UC-CRC,age of onset,pathological type of UC-CRC;(2) risk factors analysis affecting occurrence of UC-CRC:gender,age of onset,course of disease,severity of disease,disease classification,extent of lesion,smoking history,family history of colorectal cancer,anemia,hypoproteinemia,body weight loss,extraintestinal manifestations,colonic polyps,backwash ileitis,atypical hyperplasia,anxiety or depression,treatment method and regular endoscopy reexamination.Follow-up using outpatient examination and telephone interview was performed to detect prognosis of patients up to April 2017.Patients underwent colonoscopy once every 6 months within 3 years after diagnosis and once every 1 year after 3 years.Measurement data with skewed distribution were described as M (range).The univariate analysis was done using the chi-square test and Fisher exact probability.The multivariate analysis was done using the Logistic regression model.Results (1) Follow-up results:of 536 patients,450 were followed up for 26.0-120.0 months,with a median time of 76.4 months.During the follow-up,16 patients were complicated with UC-CRC,including 9 males and 7 females.Age of onset of colorectal cancer was 14-78 years,with an average age of onset of 44 years.Pathological type:high-differentiated right colon adenocarcinoma was detected in 5 patients,high-and moderate-differentiated left colon adenocarcinoma in 3 patients,left colon signetring cell carcinoma in 2 patients,moderate-differentiated rectal tubular adenocarcinoma in 3 patients,highdifferentiated rectal papillary adenocarcinoma in 2 patients and malignant lymphoma in 1 patient.(2) Risk factors analysis affecting occurrence of UC-CRC:the results of univariate analysis showed that course of disease,extent of lesion,colonic polyps and atypical hyperplasia were risk factors affecting occurrence of UC-CRC (x2 =14.848,18.885,10.554,P＜0.05).The results of multivariate analysis showed that course of disease ＞ 10 years,lesion involving the whole colon,colonic polyps and atypical hyperplasia were independent risk factors affecting occurrence of UC-CRC (OR=12.893,17.847,7.326,19.742,95％ confidence interval:1.726-74.337,1.445-89.793,1.263-43.128,3.625-96.524,P＜0.05).Conclusion The course of disease ＞ 10 years,lesion involving the whole colon,atypical hyperplasia and colonic polyps are independent risk factors affecting occurrence of UC-CRC.
