ABSTRACT
Objective To study the relative risk factors of simultaneous gastric and colonic polyps,pro-vide theoretical basis for simultaneous gastrointestinal endoscopy monitoring for high-risk population. Methods Retrospective analysis on the patients with a total of 506 cases in the department of gastroenterology of Zhujiang Hospital from 2014 to 2016 and diagnosis gastric polyps or colonic polyps. Adopt cases-control research,the pa-tients(138)with gastric polyps and colonic polyps were divided into case group,the patients(99)with gastric polyps or colonic polyps(269)were divided into control group.Results The colonic polyps group is mainly com-posed of male(69.1%);while gastric polyps group is mainly composed of female(76.8%);The proportion of the patients over 50 years old with gastrointestinal polyp is higher(81.9%).The proportion of Hp infection in the colon-ic polyps group is higher(43.1%),followed by the cases group(31.9%).The composition of the pathological types between gastric polyps group,colonic polyps group and cases group is similar,while there is no correlation on the pathological types between gastric polyps and colonic polyps in the cases group. Conclusion The male patients who diagnosis gastric polyps should perform colonoscopy,the gastric polyps patients who is Hp infection should per-form colonoscopy,the patients over 50 years old are suggested to perform gastrointestinal endoscopy. There is no correlation on the pathological types between gastric polyps and colonic polyps,further studies will be conducted to expand the study sample size.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To compare the clinical effect of glucocorticoids and NSAID in the treatment of partial splenic embolization syndrome.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Sixty patients with cirrhosis and spleen hyperactivity who developed partial splenic embolization syndrome after partial splenic embolization with Seldinger technique were randomized equally into two groups to receive treatments with intravenous dexamethasone or oral nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). White blood cell counts, liver functions, fever duration, abdominal pain duration, hospital stay, and occurrence of upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage and spleen abscess were recorded and analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>In dexamethasone group, the average fever duration, abdominal pain duration, and hospitalization days was 3.36∓2.31, 7.39∓4.00, and 11.48∓3.29 days, respectively, significantly shorter than those in NSAIDs group (5.72∓3.83, 9.59∓4.22, and 15.07∓7.93 days, respectively, P<0.05). Seven days after the operation, white blood cell count (×10(9)=L) significantly increased from 4.23∓5.09 to 8.49∓3.53 in dexamethasone group (P<0.05), and from 3.21∓1.33 to 6.52∓2.37 in NSAIDs group (P<0.05); the increment was more obvious in dexamethasone group (P<0.05). The two groups of patients showed no significant difference in liver functions after the operation. None of the patients developed upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage or spleen abscess.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Intravenous dexamethasone produces better therapeutic effect than oral NSAIDs in the management of partial splenic embolization syndrome.</p>
