RESUMO
Objective To explore the utility of different endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP)complexity scales in the training of endoscopists.Methods Clinical data of 237 patients treated by ERCP completed by trainee physicians at two hospitals in Eastern China from February 2022 to February 2023 were prospectively collected.All ERCP cases were classified using previously proposed complexity grading scales,including the American Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy(ASGE),Morriston and HOUSE grading scales,compared with the hepatopancreatic ampulla features classification.Successful intubation,successful surgical treatment and complication rates within 48 h were recorded.Results Within each grading,subgroups were divided according to severity,and the comparison of intubation success rates between subgroups in the 3 different grades showed statistically significant differences(P = 0.000).The treatment success rate and intubation success rate had similar findings(P = 0.000).There was no correlation between the complication rate and ASGE grading(P = 0.361),Morriston grading(P = 0.332),and HOUSE grading(P = 0.586).When only cases with primitive papillae were considered,the intubation success rate depended on the complexity grading after the newly added classification of hepatopancreatic ampulla features.In the ASGE group,the success rate of intubation was compared between different subgroups,and the difference was statistically significant(P = 0.004);in the Morriston group,the success rate of intubation was compared between different subgroups,and the success rate of intubation was statistically significant(P = 0.002);in the HOUSE group,the success rate of intubation was compared between different subgroups,and the difference was statistically significant(P = 0.000);In the hepatopancreatic ampulla characteristics group,the difference in intubation success rate was statistically significant when compared between different subgroups(P = 0.000).Similar findings were also found for treatment success rate and intubation success rate(P = 0.000).There was no correlation between the complication rate and ASGE group(P = 0.586),Morriston group(P = 0.443),HOUSE group(P = 0.306),and hepatopancreatic ampulla characteristics group(P = 0.350).Conclusion The use of hepatopancreatic ampulla features as a classification of biliary cannulation complexity is feasible and could be an alternative or additional means of predicting successful biliary cannulation and surgical treatment success and could be used in the future to assess endoscopist training and learning progress and technical standards.
RESUMO
ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism and pathway of Gandou Fumu decoction (GDFMD) in the development of liver fibrosis in Wilson's disease (WD). MethodFirst, 30 TX-j mice were randomly divided into the model group, high-dose, medium-dose, and low-dose GDFMD groups, and penicillamine group, with six mice in each group, and another six wild-type mice were used as the normal group. The high-dose, medium-dose, and low-dose GDFMD groups were intragastrically administered drugs of 13.92, 6.96, 3.48 g·kg-1. In the penicillamine group, 0.1 g·kg-1 of penicillamine was given by intragastric administration. The model group and the normal group were given equal volume of normal saline, once a day, for four consecutive weeks. Samples were collected four weeks after gavage, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect type Ⅲ procollagen peptide (PCⅢ), collagen type Ⅳ (Col Ⅳ), hyaluronic acid (HA), and laminin (LN). Hematoxylin-eosin (HE), Masson, and picric acid-Sirus red collagen (Sirus Red) staining were used to observe the histopathological changes of liver fibrosis. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR), immunohistochemistry, and Western blot were used to observe the expressions of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and collagen type Ⅰ (Col Ⅰ), which were related to the activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). The expression of miR-29b-3p was observed by Real-time PCR. The expression of Unc-51-like kinase 1 (ULK1) and its downstream-related factors were observed by Western blot. The downstream genes of miR-29b-3p were verified by the dual luciferase reporter gene detection method. ResultCompared with the normal group, the four items of liver fibrosis (PCⅢ, Col Ⅳ, HA, and LN) in the model group were significantly abnormal (P<0.01), and the pathology was significantly abnormal. The expression of HSC activation-related indicators including α-SMA and Col Ⅰ, as well as α-SMA mRNA and Col Ⅰ mRNA was up-regulated (P<0.05, P<0.01), and miR-29b-3p expression was down-regulated (P<0.01). ULK1, p-ULK1, autophagy-related gene 13 (Atg13), p-Atg13, Beclin-1, FAK family kinase-interacting protein of 200 kDa (FIP200), activating molecule in BECN1-regulated autophagy protein 1 (AMBKA1), and microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3Ⅱ/Ⅰ(LC3Ⅱ/Ⅰ) were up-regulated (P<0.05, P<0.01). p62 protein expression was down-regulated (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the four items of liver fibrosis in the high-dose, medium-dose, and low-dose GDFMD groups and the penicillamine group were significantly improve (P<0.01), and the pathological conditions were improved. The expression of HSC activation-related indicators including α-SMA and Col Ⅰ, as well as α-SMA mRNA and Col Ⅰ mRNA was down-regulated (P<0.05, P<0.01), and the expression of miR-29b-3p was up-regulated (P<0.01). ULK1, p-ULK1, Atg13, p-Atg13, Beclin-1, FIP200, AMBKA1, and LC3Ⅱ/Ⅰ were down-regulated (P<0.05, P<0.01), and p62 protein expression was up-regulated (P<0.01). The prediction software predicted that there was a binding site between miR-29b-3p and ULK1. The dual-luciferase reporter gene detection method indicated that the luciferase activity of the ULK1-WT plasmid-transfected cell group was reduced when miR-29b-3p mimics were co-cultured (P<0.01). ConclusionGDFMD can regulate ULK1-mediated autophagy by up-regulating miR-29b-3p and further exert its anti-hepatic fibrosis effect in Wilson's disease.
RESUMO
Wilson's disease (WD) is a copper metabolism disorder caused by mutations in the ATP7B gene, with diverse phenotypes and complex pathogenesis. It is one of the few rare diseases that can achieve good clinical efficacy through standardized treatment. Since there are few systematic reviews of this disease, we summarize the pathogenesis and treatment methods of WD from traditional Chinese and western medicine by reviewing the literature related to WD. In western medicine, ATP7B gene mutation is considered as the root cause of WD, which affects copper transport and causes copper metabolism disorders. The excessive copper deposited in the body will result in oxidative stress, defects in mitochondrial function, and cell death. Western medicine treatment of WD relies mainly on drugs, and copper antagonists are the first choice in clinical practice, which are often combined with hepatoprotective and antioxidant therapy. Surgery is a common therapy for the patients with end-stage WD, and gene therapy provides an option for WD patients. According to the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) theory, WD is rooted in constitutional deficiency and copper accumulation and triggered by dampness-heat accumulation or phlegm combined with stasis. The patient syndrome varies in different stages of the disease, and thus the treatment should be based on syndrome differentiation. The TCM treatment method of nourishing the liver and kidneys and warming the spleen and kidneys can address the root cause. The methods of clearing heat and drying dampness, resolving phlegm and dispelling stasis, and soothing liver and regulating qi movement can be adopted to treat symptoms. On the basis of syndrome differentiation, special prescriptions for the treatment of WD have been formulated, such as Gandou decoction, Gandouling, and Gandou Fumu decoction, which have been widely used in clinical practice. TCM and western medicine have their own advantages and shortcomings. The integrated Chinese and western medicine complementing with each other demonstrates great therapeutic potential. This paper summarizes the pathogenesis and treatment of WD with integrated Chinese and western medicine, aiming to provide a reference for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of this disease.
RESUMO
Gut microbiota dysbiosis is an avenue for the promotion of atherosclerosis (AS) and this effect is mediated partly via the circulating microbial metabolites. More microbial metabolites related to AS vascular inflammation, and the mechanisms involved need to be clarified urgently. Paeonol (Pae) is an active compound isolated from Paeonia suffruticoas Andr. with anti-AS inflammation effect. However, considering the low oral bioavailability of Pae, it is worth exploring the mechanism by which Pae reduces the harmful metabolites of the gut microbiota to alleviate AS. In this study, ApoE-/- mice were fed a high-fat diet (HFD) to establish an AS model. AS mice were administrated with Pae (200 or 400 mg·kg-1) by oral gavage and fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) was conducted. 16S rDNA sequencing was performed to investigate the composition of the gut microbiota, while metabolomics analysis was used to identify the metabolites in serum and cecal contents. The results indicated that Pae significantly improved AS by regulating gut microbiota composition and microbiota metabolic profile in AS mice. We also identified α-hydroxyisobutyric acid (HIBA) as a harmful microbial metabolite reduced by Pae. HIBA supplementation in drinking water promoted AS inflammation in AS mice. Furthermore, vascular endothelial cells (VECs) were cultured and stimulated by HIBA. We verified that HIBA stimulation increased intracellular ROS levels, thereby inducing VEC inflammation via the TXNIP/NLRP3 pathway. In sum, Pae reduces the production of the microbial metabolite HIBA, thus alleviating the ROS/TXNIP/NLRP3 pathway-mediated endothelial inflammation in AS. Our study innovatively confirms the mechanism by which Pae reduces the harmful metabolites of gut microbiota to alleviate AS and proposes HIBA as a potential biomarker for AS clinical judgment.

ObjectiveTo investigate whether the effects of paeonol (Pae) on angiotensin Ⅱ (AngⅡ)-induced senescence in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) were related to angiotensinogen of silencing regulatory information factor 6 (SIRT6)/adenosine diphosphate ribose polymerase 1 (PARP1) signaling pathway in VSMCs. MethodThe model of VSMC-stress aging induced by AngⅡ (100 nmol·L-1) was established. The rats were divided into normal group, model group, low, medium, and high-concentration Pae groups (30, 60, 120 μmol·L-1). The positive rate of cell senescence was detected by SA-β-Gal staining, the ability of cell proliferation was detected by the cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) method, the expression of SIRT6, PARP1, p16, p21, p53, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)-damaged protein γ-H2AX was detected by Western blot, and VSMC proliferation was detected by EdU staining. The silenced VSMCs were prepared by siRNA-SIRT6 transfection, and the protein expressions of SIRT6, PARP1, p16, and γ-H2AX in VSMCs silenced by SIRT6 were observed. ResultThe results of SA-β-Gal staining showed that the senescence positive rate of SA-β-Gal staining in the model group was higher than that in the normal group (P<0.01), and the positive rate of SA-β-Gal staining in the Pae group was significantly lower than that in the model group (P<0.05, P<0.01). The results of Western blot showed that as compared with the normal group, the expression of PCNA, SIRT6, and PARP1 in the model group was down-regulated, and the expression of aging-related proteins p16, p21, p53, and γ-H2AX was up-regulated in the model group (P<0.05, P<0.01). Compared with the model group, Pae promoted the protein expression of PCNA, SIRT6, and PARP1 and inhibited the protein expression of p16, p21, p53, and γ-H2AX in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.05, P<0.01). The results of EdU staining showed that the number of EdU positive cells in the model group was lower than that in the normal group (P<0.01), and the number of EdU positive cells in Pae groups was significantly higher than that in the model group (P<0.05, P<0.01). After SIRT6 silencing, the effects of Pae on promoting SIRT6 and PARP1 and inhibiting P16 were reversed (P<0.05, P<0.01). In addition, the addition of SIRT6 inhibitor (IN-1) promoted the occurrence of cell senescence induced by AngⅡ (P<0.05, P<0.01). ConclusionPae can effectively inhibit the aging of VSMCs, and its mechanism may be related to the regulation of SIRT6/PARP1 signal pathway.
RESUMO
ObjectiveThis study aimed to investigate the HIV genotypic subtypes and molecular transmission clusters among men who have sex with men (MSM) with newly reported HIV infections in Dehong Dai and Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture (Dehong Prefecture), Yunnan Province, China, between 2010 and 2019. The study aimed to identify potential high-risk transmitters and provide reference data for screening, management, and intervention of infection sources. MethodsPlasma samples from newly reported HIV-positive MSM individuals in Dehong Prefecture between 2010 and 2019 were collected. The viral pol gene fragments were amplified, sequenced, and genotyped. Genetic distances (GD) between pairwise sequences were analyzed and calculated. MEGA 7.0 and Gephi were used for phylogenetic and molecular transmission network analysis. ResultsA total of 159 newly reported HIV infections among MSM were included in the study, with successful genotyping of 100 cases. Nine HIV-1 subtypes were identified, with the most prevalent being CRF01_AE subtype (52%), followed by CRF07_BC subtype (31%), CRF55_01B subtype (10%), and others (7%). Cluster analysis revealed a total network access rate of 67%, forming three transmission clusters. CRF01_AE subtype formed two transmission clusters with 38 and 3 infected individuals, while CRF07_BC subtypes formed one transmission cluster with 26 infected individuals. The transmission network within the CRF01_AE clusters exhibited a more complex relationship. Significant differences in educational level were observed between the two main transmission clusters. ConclusionThe predominant HIV subtypes among newly reported MSM cases in Dehong Prefecture between 2010 and 2019 were CRF01_AE and CRF07_BC. Significant cultural differences are observed between the main transmission clusters. Continued monitoring of genotypic subtypes and targeted interventions within transmission clusters are warranted.
RESUMO
Objective:To evaluate the preventive effect of indwelling pancreatic duct guide wire through nasobiliary drainage catheter for post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) pancreatitis (PEP) in cholelithiasis patients with small-caliber pancreatic duct.Methods:The clinical data of 127 patients with gall bladder and common bile duct stones undergoing ERCP and elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy in the Cholelithiasis Center of Shanghai East Hospital Affiliated to Tongji University from January 2019 to June 2023 were analyzed retrospectively, including 55 males and 72 females, aged (56.95±10.86) years old. According to the preventive methods of PEP, patients were divided into the guide wire group (indwelling pancreatic duct guide wire through nasobiliary drainage catheter), stenting group (nasobiliary catheter with 5Fr 5 cm single pigtail pancreatic duct stent) and conventional group (nasobiliary catheter). The incidence of post-ERCP hyperamylasemia (PEH) and PEP were compared.Results:The incidence of PEH in the guide wire group was lower than that in the conventional group [17.8% (8/45) vs. 43.5% (10/23), P=0.023], and also lower than that in the stenting group [17.8% (8/45) vs. 32.2% (19/59)], despite no statistical significance ( P=0.337). The incidences of PEH were comparable in the stenting group and conventional group [32.2% (19/59) vs. 43.5% (10/23), P=0.096)]. The incidence of PEP in the guide wire group was lower than that in both the stenting group [6.7% (3/45) vs. 23.7% (14/59), P=0.030]. and conventional group [6.7% (3/45) vs. 30.4% (7/23), P=0.025]. The incidences of PEP were comparable in the stenting and conventional group [23.7% (14/59) vs. 30.4% (7/23), P=0.532]. Conclusion:Compared to the preventive pancreatic duct stenting, indwelling pancreatic duct guide wire through nasobiliary drainage catheter can effectively prevent the PEH and PEP in high-risk patients with a small-caliber pancreatic duct.
RESUMO
Objective:To study the feasibility and safety of percutaneous jejunal drainage in treatment of hepatolithiasis after choledochojejunostomy.Methods:The clinical data of 24 patients with hepatolithiasis after choledochojejunostomy treated by percutaneous jejunal drainage at the Cholelithiasis Center, Shanghai East Hospital Affiliated to Tongji University from May 2021 to May 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 16 males and 8 females, aged (50.46±10.89) years old. Ultrasound and X ray guided percutaneous jejunography was performed under local anesthesia for patients with hepatolithiasis after choledochojejunostomy. Then the fistula was directly dilated to 16.0Fr, and percutaneous jejunal choledochoscopy was performed 3 days later. The success rate, complication rate and stone removal rate were analysed.Results:Twenty-four patients were treated with percutaneous jejunography, with a success rate of 79.2%(19/24), including 19 patients after anterior colonic cholangiojejunostomy with a success rate of 94.7%(18/19), and 5 patients after retrocolonic cholangiojejunostomy with a success rate of 20.0%(1/5). There was no complication including bleeding, intestinal leakage and bile leakage. In 19 patients with successful percutaneous jejunography, the success rate of fistula dilation was 100%(19/19), and there was no complication. Five patients with failed percutaneous jejunography underwent open choledocholithotomy through the jejunal output-loop, and bile leakage occurred in one patient. Thirteen patients with anastomotic stenosis, 5 with intrahepatic biliary strictures, and 6 with anastomotic and intrahepatic biliary strictures were diagnosed by choledochoscopy and selective cholangiography in these 24 patients. After choledochoscopic electrotomy, cylindrical balloon dilation, stone removal, stenting and other treatments, the stenosis relief rate was 100%(24/24), and the clearance rate of intrahepatic bile duct stones was 91.7%(22/24).Conclusion:Percutaneous jejunal drainage was a feasible, safe and minimally invasive method for treatment of hepatolithiasis after choledochojejunostomy. The procedure was especially suitable for patients with anterior colonic cholangiojejunostomy.

The difference was statistically significant ( t or χ 2 values were 60.795, 6.570, 56.629, P<0.01 or 0.05). The comfort score of the experimental group was (4.61±1.06) points, the bile flow rate was (241.52±53.95) ml/days, which were higher than (5.76±0.76) points and (174.09±47.55) ml/days of the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( t values were 10.448, 11.265, P<0.01). Conclusions:Shortening the length of nasobiliary duct combined with single reaction "α" method has the advantages of simper operation and nursing, low prolapse rate, high comfort and good drainage effect. It is worthy of clinical application.
RESUMO
Pancreatic tuberculosis is a chronic and specific disease of the pancreas ,which is rare in clinic. Pancreatic tuberculosis accounts for less than 5% of general miliary tuberculosis.This disease is often secondary to tuberculosis in other parts of the body.Because of the lack of awareness of pancreatic tuberculosis ,it is easy to be misdiagnosed as pancreatic cancer.In the past,there were reports of pancreatic tuberculosis misdiagnosed as pancreatic cancer and then underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy treatment .In clinical practice,most of the cases of pancreatic tuberculosis were confirmed by during operation or postoperative pathology.In recent years,with the increase of the incidence of tuberculosis,the reports of pancreatic tuberculosis have also increased.Therefore,the study reviewed the literature of pancreatic tuberculosis in recent years in order to improve the understanding of pancreatic tuberculosis by the medical workers.

The clinical data of 7 patients who underwent the treatment of gradual and persistent balloon dilatation (GPBD) by percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTC)for traumatic biliary stricture in Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Dalian University were analyzed retrospectively.Balloon catheters were successfully implanted in 5 cases by PTC,and with the help of ERCP in 2 PTC failed cases.There was no bleeding,acute pancreatitis and other complications.Two balloon catheters were damaged and displaced,respectively.All the biliary strictures were relieved.No biliary sludge was attached on the surface of the balloon and in the bile duct.Bile duct mucosa had congestion edema and cellulose attachment.There was no biliary stricture recurrence in the follow-up of 5 to 27 months.This study showed GPBD by PTC was a simple,safe and effective method for treating traumatic biliary strictures.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the nursing points of endoscopic full-covered self-expanding removable metal stents (FCSERMS) implantation for bile duct anastomotic strictures after liver transplantation. Methods The clinical data of patients who were treated by endoscopic full-covered self-expanding removable metal stents implantation for bile duct anastomotic strictures after liver transplantation from January 2013 to July 2015 were retrospectively analyzed, and the nursing process were summarized. Results The group of 9 patients were successfully placed and removed with FCSERMS. There was no postoperative complication, such as stent migration, acute pancreatitis, biliary bleeding and intestinal leakage. All the bile duct strictures were relieved after FCSERMS removement. Followed up for 10-32 months, there was no symptom and sign of bile duct anastomotic stricture recurrent. Conclusions The key in nursing points of FCSERMS implantation for bile duct anastomotic strictures after liver transplantation are introducing the function of FCSERMS and therapeutic process to improve patient compliance, mastering the endoscopic operations, the placement and removal method of FCSERMS to short operation time, strengthening postoperative nasal bile duct care, paying attention to the observation, detection and treatment of postoperative complications after the metal stent placement and removement, as well as the continuing care during the period between placement and removment of FCSERMS.
RESUMO
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatonraphy (ERCP) is the main treatment modality for common bile duct stone.Biliary hemorrhage easily occurred in patients suffering from cirrhosis during and after ERCP.From May 2012 to May 2016,8 cases diagnosed with cirrhosis and common bile duct stones who developed post-ERCP refractory biliary hemorrhage were treated with full-covered self-expanding removable metal stents (FCSERMS),including 5 cases with perioperative hemorrhage of ERCP and 3 cases with delayed onset of biliary hemorrhage post ERCP.All the patients were successfully implanted with FCSERMS.Seven patients had successful hemostasis,and the other one case with ineffective hemostasis was treated with interventional arterial embolization later.Four stents were removed within 4 weeks and one in 8 months after ERCP.No evidence of biliary hemorrhage,intestinal fistula and other complications was observed during removal procedures.Spontaneous stent dislodgment occurred in one patient in postoperative 4 weeks,one patient died of liver failure in postoperative 6 months and one patient carried FCSERMS for 23 months.
