ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate A modified Blumgart pancreaticojejunostomy in laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy.Methods:The clinical data of 81 patients undergoing laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy in Zhengzhou University Affiliated Cancer Hospital from Jan 2019 to Jan 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 26 patients underwent modified Blumgart anastomosis and 55 underwent conventional Blumgart anastomosis.The data of demographics, liver function, pancreatic texture, operational result and complications were compared between the two groups.Results:The preoperative data (body mass index, preoperative albumin, prealbumin, transaminase, total bilirubin) between two groups were comparable ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in pancreatic texture, pancreatic duct diameter and intraoperative blood loss between the two groups ( P>0.05). The modified group had shorter total operation time ( P<0.05), shorter pancreaticojejunostomy time ( P<0.05), shorter postoperative hospital stay ( P<0.05). The incidence of total pancreatic fistula and biochemical fistula in the modified group were lower than those in the conventional group ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of B/C grade pancreatic fistula and bile leakage, postoperative bleeding, infection and delayed gastric emptying between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conlusions:The modified Blumgart pancreaticojejunostomy during laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy is safe, easy to do and time saving. While the incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula with clinical significance and other major complications were similar to traditional Blumgart procedure.

ABSTRACT

Sleep deprivation (SD) has a profound impact on the central nervous system, resulting in an array of mood disorders, including depression and anxiety. Despite this, the dynamic alterations in neuronal activity during sleep deprivation have not been extensively investigated. While some researchers propose that sleep deprivation diminishes neuronal activity, thereby leading to depression. Others argue that short-term sleep deprivation enhances neuronal activity and dendritic spine density, potentially yielding antidepressant effects. In this study, a two-photon microscope was utilized to examine the calcium transients of anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) neurons in awake SD mice in vivo at 24-hour intervals. It was observed that SD reduced the frequency and amplitude of Ca2+ transients while increasing the proportions of inactive neurons. Following the cessation of sleep deprivation, neuronal calcium transients demonstrated a gradual recovery. Moreover, whole-cell patch-clamp recordings revealed a significant decrease in the frequency of spontaneous excitatory post-synaptic current (sEPSC) after SD. The investigation also assessed several oxidative stress parameters, finding that sleep deprivation substantially elevated the level of malondialdehyde (MDA), while simultaneously decreasing the expression of Nuclear Factor erythroid 2-Related Factor 2 (Nrf2) and activities of Superoxide dismutase (SOD) in the ACC. Importantly, the administration of gallic acid (GA) notably mitigated the decline of calcium transients in ACC neurons. GA was also shown to alleviate oxidative stress in the brain and improve cognitive impairment caused by sleep deprivation. These findings indicate that the calcium transients of ACC neurons experience a continuous decline during sleep deprivation, a process that is reversible. GA may serve as a potential candidate agent for the prevention and treatment of cognitive impairment induced by sleep deprivation.

ABSTRACT

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is mostly treated by surgery combined with interventional therapy, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and local treatment. However, it often relapses after the operation. And the prognosis of advanced patients is poor, and the effective rate of chemotherapy and molecular targeted therapy is low. Recent studies indicated that the occurrence and progress of HCC are closely related to the immune function of the body. Immunotherapy, as a new type of tumor therapy, has drawn much attention. By improving the immunogenicity of tumor cells and the killing sensitivity of effector cells, it stimulates the immune function of the body, prolongs the progression-free survival time and the overall survival time of patients, and becomes an integral part of the comprehensive treatment of liver cancer. This article reviewd the progress in immunotherapy of HCC in the recent years.

Objective:To study the safety and efficacy of liquid isolation assisted technology in ultrasound-guided percutaneous radiofrequency ablation for hepatocellular carcinoma adjacent to liver surfaces.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 246 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma near liver surfaces treated by radiofrequency ablation from November 2016 to November 2019 at the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery, Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Zhengzhou University. There were 182 males and 64 females, aged (56.7±9.2) years. The patients were divided into the liquid isolation group with liquid isolation assisted technology for radiofrequency ablation ( n=131) and the conventional treatment group with conventional radiofrequency ablation ( n=115). The complication, one-time complete ablation and progression-free survival rates were compared between the two groups. Results:The incidence of intraoperative complications in the liquid isolation group was 21.4% (28/131), versus 20.9% (24/115) in the conventional treatment group. There was no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). The incidence of postoperative complications in the liquid isolation group was 20.6% (27/131), which was significantly lower than that in the conventional treatment group 33.9% (39/115) ( P<0.05). The incidence of postoperative pain in the liquid isolation group was 6.1% (8/131), which was significantly lower than that in the conventional treatment group 15.7% (18/115) ( P<0.05). For the 131 patients in the liquid isolation group, there were 183 tumors near to liver surfaces. For the 115 patients in the conventional treatment group, there were 142 lesions near to liver surfaces. The one-time complete ablation rate in the liquid isolation group was 94.0% (172/183), which was significantly higher than the 75.4% (107/142) in the conventional treatment group ( P<0.05). The progression-free survival rate in the liquid isolation group was significantly better than that in the conventional treatment group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The liquid isolation technique increased the one-time complete ablation rate of liver cancer adjacent to liver surfaces, reduced the incidence of postoperative complications and improved prognosis.

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the safety and efficacy of artificial ascites-assisted ultrasound guided percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of liver tumors adjacent to the gastrointestinal tract.Metbods After ultrasound-guided percutaneous placement of a central venous tube,saline was injected into the abdominal cavity.The presence of fluid between the liver tumor and its adjacent gastrointestinal organs forms a zone of isolation.Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) was then carried out.This is a retrospective study on 32 patients whose lesions were adjacent to the gastrointestinal tract treated from January 2015 to December 2016 with RFA after establishment of artificial ascites.One month after ablation,CT/MR was performed to evaluate whether the lesions were completely ablated.Results All the 39 lesions in the 32 patients were successfully treated with RFA after establishment of artificial ascites.The complete ablation rate was 92.3 % (30/32) after one ablation session.One patient developed a high fever after surgery,another patient had nausea and vomiting during surgery,and two more patients complained of right shoulder and back pain.There were no severe complications such as hemorrhage or gastrointestinal perforation.There was no treatment related deaths.Conclusions For liver tumors which were adjacent to the gastrointestinal tract,establishment of artificial ascites significantly improved the visual field under ultrasound,and reduced the chance of collateral gastrointestinal thermal injury.The treatment of ascites-assisted ultrasound guided percutaneous radiofrequency ablation of liver cancer was safe and efficacious.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the effect of parecoxib combined with ropivacaine for incision infiltration on agitation during recovery from anesthesia in patients undergoing abdominal hepatectomy. Methods Forty patients of both sexes, aged 35-64 yr, with body mass index of 18-24 kg∕m2 , of Ameri-can Society of Anesthesiologists physical statusⅠ or Ⅱ, undergoing elective partial hepatectomy, were di-vided into parecoxib sodium group ( group P ) and parecoxib sodium plus ropivacaine group ( group RP ) with 20 cases in each group. Parecoxib sodium 40 mg was intravenously injected at 30 min before operation in group P. Parecoxib sodium 40 mg was intravenously injected at 30 min before operation, and incision in-filtration was performed with 0. 5% ropivacaine 20 ml at the end of surgery in group RP. Patient-controlled intravenous analgesia was performed at the end of surgery in both groups. The development of agitation, re-spiratory depression and nausea and vomiting was recorded within 30 min after operation. Blood samples were collected from the radial artery immediately before induction ( T0 ) , at the end of surgery ( T1 ) and at removal of extubation ( T2 ) for determination of plasma cortisone ( Cor) concentrations ( by radio-immunity method), plasma epinephrine (E) and norepinephrine (NE) concentrations (by enzyme-linked immu-nosorbent assay) and blood glucose ( using a blood gas analyzer) . Results Compared with the baseline at T0 , the plasma concentrations of Cor, Glu, E and NE were significantly increased at T1,2 in two groups ( P>0. 05) . The incidence of agitation and plasma concentrations of Cor, Glu, E and NE were significantly low-er at T1,2 in group RP than in group P ( P<0. 05) . No patients developed nausea and vomiting and respira-tory depression in two groups. Conclusion Parecoxib combined with ropivacaine for incision infiltration can decrease the occurrence of agitation during recovery from anesthesia, which is related to inhibiting stress responses of patients undergoing abdominal hepatectomy.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To identify potential mutation of the PAX6 gene in a family affected with congenital aniridia from northeastern China.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Two patients were collected from the family and underwent full ophthalmologic examinations. Genomic DNA was extracted from all family numbers and 100 healthy controls. The coding regions and flanking sequence of the PAX6 gene were amplified by PCR amplification and subjected to bidirectional DNA sequencing.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>A nonsense mutation (c.718 C>T) was identified in exon 9 in both patients but not in other unaffected families or the 100 healthy controls. However, obvious difference was noted in the phenotype between the two patients. One of the patient has presented irregular cornea, which was infrequently reported.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>A c.718C>T transitional mutation has been found to underlie the aniridia, which showed an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern in this northeastern Chinese family.</p>
