Pancreatic cancer is one of the most malignant digestive system tumors. In the recent decade, the effect of diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic cancer has improved due to the renewal of treatment concept and the popularization of effective treatment. However, the overall efficacy of pancreatic cancer is still dismal and the 5-year survival rate is only about 10%. Further improving the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic cancer is the top priority of oncology research and clinical practice. Based on past clinical and scientific research experience, the authors have proposed ten hot spots and future directions for a reference, which focusing on early prevention, early diagnosis, and early treatment of pancreatic cancer, molecular typing and precise treatment, new drug development and regimen combination, surgical technology and strategy change, model establishment and database development, as well as innovation of traditional Chinese medicine and breakthrough of treatment concept. A breakthrough in the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic cancer in the next ten years is raising hope, when doctors can truly prevent and control pancreatic cancer.

Application of two RT-PCR methods for detection of norovirus in market-sold oysters and norovirus genetic characteristic analysis, a survey conducted in Beijing / 中华流行病学杂志

Objective: To evaluate the application of real-time RT-PCR and semi-nested RT-PCR in the detection of norovirus in oysters and analyzing the genetic characteristics of the isolates. Methods: Real-time fluorescent RT-PCR and semi-nested RT-PCR were used to detect norovirus GⅠ/GⅡ in fresh oysters collected from the markets in Beijing from November 2014 to October 2015. The detection rate of the parallel test was also analyzed. In addition, the reliability of semi-nested RT-PCR was evaluated by agreement rate and consistency test (Kappa value). The positive products of norovirus GⅠ/GⅡ capsid protein region gene by semi-nested RT-PCR were sequenced. Software BioEdit 7.0.9.0 was used for sequence alignment, and software Mega 6.0 was used to construct the evolutionary tree. Results: In 72 samples, the detection rate of norovirus was 31.94% (23/72) by real-time RT-PCR, 38.89% (28/72) by semi-nested RT-PCR and 48.61% (35/72) by parallel test. The coincidence rate of the two methods was 73.61%, a moderate degree (Kappa value =0.43). A total of 13 norovirus strains were successfully sequenced, and 11 strains (7 GⅡ.17 strains, 2 GⅡ. 4 Sydney_ 2012 strains, 1 GⅡ. 1 strain and 1 GⅡ. 21 strain) were obtained from norovirus positive samples by two RT-PCR methods, two strains (1 GⅡ. 17 strain and 1 GⅡ. 3 strain) were obtained from real-time RT-PCR negative samples which were positive for norovirus by semi-nested RT-PCR. The similarity between these strains and reference strains from diarrhea patients, environmental sewage, and shellfish products were 84.4% - 100.0%. Conclusions: The parallel test of norovirus in oysters by two RT-PCR methods can improve the detection rate and detect more genotypes. Norovirus strains in oysters were highly homologous with reference strains from diarrheal patients, environmental sewage, and shellfish products. Therefore, surveillance, prevention and control for norovirus should be carried out in people who have frequent contacts with oysters and related environments.

Comprehensive analysis shows that T1 treatment is better than T2 treatment in the growth-promoting and quality-enhancing of ASR.

MET inhibitor tepotinib antagonizes multidrug resistance mediated by ABCG2 transporter: In vitro and in vivo study

Overexpression of ABCG2 transporter in cancer cells has been linked to the development of multidrug resistance (MDR), an obstacle to cancer therapy. Our recent study uncovered that the MET inhibitor, tepotinib, is a potent reversal agent for ABCB1-mediated MDR. In the present study, we reported for the first time that the MET inhibitor tepotinib can also reverse ABCG2-mediated MDR in vitro and in vivo by directly binding to the drug-binding site of ABCG2 and reversibly inhibiting ABCG2 drug efflux activity, therefore enhancing the cytotoxicity of substrate drugs in drug-resistant cancer cells. Furthermore, the ABCB1/ABCG2 double-transfected cell model and ABCG2 gene knockout cell model demonstrated that tepotinib specifically inhibits the two MDR transporters. In mice bearing drug-resistant tumors, tepotinib increased the intratumoral accumulation of ABCG2 substrate drug topotecan and enhanced its antitumor effect. Therefore, our study provides a new potential of repositioning tepotinib as an ABCG2 inhibitor and combining tepotinib with substrate drugs to antagonize ABCG2-mediated MDR.

Analyzed the clinical data of 54 patients with low rectal cancer who received robot assisted TME or laparoscopic assisted TaTME in the first hospital of Jilin University from January 2020 to July 2022, including 39 males and 15 females, with a median age of 61 years old. They were divided into robot assisted TME group ( n=29) and laparoscope assisted TaTME group ( n=25) according to the surgical methods. Follow-up was carried out through outpatient, telephone and wechat. The follow-up time was 30 days after operation. The quality of mesorectal excision was divided into high quality and low quality according to the evaluation of the integrity of the mesentery of the specimen after total mesorectal excision and the circumferential cutting edge. The primary outcome was the quality of mesorectal excision, and the secondary end points were surgery related information, postoperative pathological information, and postoperative complications. SPSS25.0 software was used for statistical analysis. The measurement data of skew distribution were expressed by M( Q1, Q3), and the Mann Whitney U test was used for comparison between groups. The counting data were expressed by n(%), and the comparison between groups was conducted by χ2 test or Fisher exact probability method. Results:The high-quality mesorectal excision rate in TaTME group was 88% (22 cases), and the high-quality mesorectal excision rate in robot group was 100%, with no statistical difference( χ2=3.69, P=0.093). The operation time of TaTME group and robot assisted TME group was [180 (165, 220)] min and [140 (117, 168)] min, respectively, with statistical significance ( U=125.00, P<0.001). The preventive ileostomy rate was 100% in the TaTME group and 37.9% in the robot group( χ2=23.27, P<0.001). Compared with TaTME group, robot assisted TME had a longer distance from the lower tumor to the distal cutting edge [10 (5, 25) mm vs 35 (21, 41) mm, U=117.00, P<0.001], a longer distance from the deepest tumor to the circumferential cutting edge [15 (10, 25) mm vs 25 (20, 34) mm, U=165.50, P=0.003], and a larger tumor maximum meridian [20 (4, 52) mm vs 42 (30, 48) mm, U=202.50, P=0.005]. The total incidence of complications within 30 days after operation was 16.7%, of which the incidence of Clavien-Dindo Ⅰ to Ⅱ complications was 11.1%, and the incidence of Clavien-Dindo ⅢA complications was 5.6%. The overall complication rate of TaTME group was higher, but there was no significant difference (20.0% vs 13.8%, χ2=0.37, P=0.718). Conclusion:Both TaTME and robot assisted TME can ensure good quality of TME operation and can be used as an effective and safe treatment for low rectal cancer. When performing TaTME surgery for low rectal cancer, it is more necessary to ensure sufficient distal margin distance.

Current status of organophosphorus pesticide residues in root and rhizome medicinal materials and research progress of rapid detection methods / 中国中药杂志

The medicinal plants with roots and rhizomes as the medicinal parts account for about 1/3 of Chinese medicinal herbs. Root and rhizome medicinal materials are widely used in clinical practice, whereas their wild resource reserves are insufficient to meet the market demand. With the expansion of planting areas, the formation of large-scale production areas, and the increase in planting years, diseases and insect pests of these medicinal plants, which are diverse and have broad transmission routes, strong concealment, and heavy damage, have become more and more serious. The prevention and control of these diseases and insect pests is characterized by multiple ways of pesticide application, large consumption of pesticides, susceptibility to soil barrier, difficulty in the control, and unstable control efficiency. Organophosphorus pesticides(OPPs) are widely used in the cultivation of Chinese medicinal plants because of their diverse varieties, broad-spectrum, good efficacy, and low residues, and have a positive effect on the yield and quality of Chinese medicinal materials. However, the abuse of OPPs not only increases the planting cost, but also affects the quality and safety of Chinese medicinal plants, the safety of clinical use of Chinese medicine, and the ecological safety of production areas. This paper reviewed the research and development progress of OPPs, the registration status of OPPs used in root and rhizome medicinal materials, residue limit standards, residue status, and rapid detection technology progress of OPPs. This review aims to provide research ideas and references for standardizing the use of OPPs in root and rhizome medicinal materials, reducing OPP residues, and establishing a fast, efficient, accurate, and reliable method for the detection of OPP residues in Chinese herbal medicine.

Incidence and risk factors of anastomotic leak after transanal total mesorectal excision in China: a retrospective analysis based on national database / 中华胃肠外科杂志

Objective: Transanal total mesorectal excision (taTME) was a very hot topic in the first few years since its appearance, but now more introspections and controversies on this procedure have emerged. One of the reasons why the Norwegian Ministry of Health stopped taTME was the high incidence of postoperative anastomotic leak. In current study, the incidence and risk factors of anastomotic leak after taTME were analyzed based on the data registered in the Chinese taTME Registry Collaborative (CTRC). Methods: A case-control study was carried out. Between November 15, 2017 and December 31, 2020, clinical data of 1668 patients undergoing taTME procedure registered in the CTRC database from 43 domestic centers were collected retrospectively. After excluding 98 cases without anastomosis and 109 cases without complete postoperative complication data, 1461 patients were finally enrolled for analysis. There were 1036 males (70.9%) and 425 females (29.1%) with mean age of (58.2±15.6) years and mean body mass index of (23.6±3.8) kg/m(2). Anastomotic leak was diagnosed and classified according to the International Study Group of Rectal Cancer (ISREC) criteria. The risk factors associated with postoperative anastomotic leak cases were analyzed. The impact of the cumulative number of taTME surgeries in a single center on the incidence of anastomotic leak was evaluated. As for those centers with the number of taTME surgery ≥ 40 cases, incidence of anastomic leak between 20 cases of taTME surgery in the early and later phases was compared. Results: Of 1461 patients undergoing taTME, 103(7.0%) developed anastomotic leak, including 71 (68.9%) males and 32 (31.1%) females with mean age of (59.0±13.9) years and mean body mass index of (24.5±5.7) kg/m(2). The mean distance between anastomosis site and anal verge was (2.6±1.4) cm. Thirty-nine cases (37.9%) were classified as ISREC grade A, 30 cases (29.1%) as grade B and 34 cases (33.0%) as grade C. Anastomotic leak occurred in 89 cases (7.0%,89/1263) in the laparoscopic taTME group and 14 cases (7.1%, 14/198) in the pure taTME group. Multivariate analysis showed that hand-sewn anastomosis (P=0.004) and the absence of defunctioning stoma (P=0.013) were independently associated with anastomotic leak after taTME. In the 16 centers (37.2%) which performed ≥ 30 taTME surgeries with cumulative number of 1317 taTME surgeries, 86 cases developed anastomotic leak (6.5%, 86/1317). And in the 27 centers which performed less than 30 taTME surgeries with cumulative number of 144 taTME surgeries, 17 cases developed anastomotic leak (11.8%, 17/144). There was significant difference between two kinds of center (χ(2)=5.513, P=0.019). Thirteen centers performed ≥ 40 taTME surgeries. In the early phase (the first 20 cases in each center), 29 cases (11.2%, 29/260) developed anastomotic leak, and in the later phase, 12 cases (4.6%, 12/260) developed anastomotic leak. The difference between the early phase and the later phase was statistically significant (χ(2)=7.652, P=0.006). Conclusion: The incidence of anastomotic leak after taTME may be reduced by using stapler and defunctioning stoma, or by accumulating experience.

Pylorus-preserving gastrectomy and segmental gastrectomy: discrimination of concepts and surgical procedures / 中华胃肠外科杂志

Both pylorus-preserving gastrectomy (PPG) and segmental gastrectomy (SG) achieve the preservation of gastric cardia and pylorus through the circumferential resection of stomach, while concepts and surgical procedures of these two operations are obviously different. In this sense, transectional gastrectomy includes both PPG and SG. PPG is one of the standard surgical procedure for early gastric cancer (EGC). The extent of lymph node dissection (No.1, 3, 4sb, 4d, 6, 7, 8a, 9) and the retention of infrapyloric vessels, hepatic and pyloric branch of vagal nerve has formed a consensus. Meanwhile, SG is regarded as an investigational treatment according to the Japanese gastric cancer treatment guidelines. It is still controversial and may generate an ethical risk in the clinical practice. This article distinguishes the difference in the concepts and surgical procedures between PPG and SG, assisting a comprehensive evaluation in further research.

Influencing factors of preoperative pulmonary function in elderly patients undergoing rotator cuff surgery / 北京大学学报(医学版)

OBJECTIVE@#To analyze the preoperative pulmonary function in rotator cuff injury patients and the possible influencing factors.@*METHODS@#All the rotator cuff surgery patients who underwent pre-operative pulmonary function examination in Peking University Third Hospital from Jan. 2020 to Jun. 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. Their perioperative medical records and main parameters of pulmonary function were collected from database management system, and their gender, age, body mass index (BMI), smoking history, time from injury, visual analogue scale (VAS) and other factors impacting on preoperative pulmonary function were studied.@*RESULTS@#Twenty-nine patients with rotator cuff injury were included, among whom 1 patient was reported to have restrictive ventilation dysfunction and 2 patients to have obstructive ventilation dysfunction. All the three patients denied the history of respiratory diseases, and had no respiratory symptoms. In all enrolled patients, the mean forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1)/ forced vital capacity (FVC) was 79.2%±5.9%, and the mean VAS pain score was 3.66±1.26. In addition, the dynamic pulmonary functions (FVC, FEV1) were reduced in more than half of the elderly, and the total lung capacity (TLC) was lower than the estimated value in 2/3 of the elderly. There were significant differences in three main indexes of pulmonary functions between genders, and the percentage of the estimated TLC between normal BMI group (18 kg/m2 < BMI < 24 kg/m2) and overweight/obesity group (BMI≥24 kg/m2) was significantly different. Based on the injury time longer than 1 year or not, the results indicated that FVC and TLC were significantly different between the two groups.@*CONCLUSION@#In addition to gender and age, time from injury and severity of pain, as well as overweight/obesity, may influence pulmonary function outcomes in the elderly rotator cuff patients. Targeted intervention can be carried out on these factors before surgery. Preoperative lung function test can be used as one of the basic evaluation indexes for respiratory training and rehabilitation of patients.

The correct diagnosis relies on synovial fluid analysis and bacterial culture. Our proposed treatment protocol is arthroscopic debridement and antibiotic therapy as quickly as possible.

Research progress of single-incision laparoscopic radical gastrectomy / 中华胃肠外科杂志

Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignant diseases in the world, which has a high incidence in our country and threatens people's health seriously. Laparoscopic radical gastrectomy is one of the main methods of surgical treatment for gastric cancer, whose clinical application has a history of near 30 years. With the in-depth understanding of minimally invasive surgery and the improvement of patients' cosmetic demand, single-incision laparoscopic surgery has emerged. Since the first report of single-incision laparoscopic radical gastrectomy in 2010, its safety has been preliminarily confirmed. While this result still needs to be further verified by more prospective randomized controlled studies. Compared with traditional laparoscopic radical gastrectomy, single-incision laparoscopic radical gastrectomy has the advantages of less trauma, less postoperative pain and faster postoperative recovery. So it has been favored by surgeons. However, the steeper learning curve and difficult operation of single-incision laparoscopic radical gastrectomy limit its promotion in clinical applications. At present, there are still controversies and confusions in the single-incision laparoscopic radical gastrectomy. This article elucidates the advances and existing problems of single-incision laparoscopic radical gastrectomy.

Monitoring and management of intracranial pressure in pediatric severe traumatic brain injury / 中国小儿急救医学

Continuous intracranial hypertension in patients with severe traumatic brain injury(sTBI) is the key factor of secondary brain injury.The management of elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) can improve the outcome.ICP monitoring methods are divided into invasive and non-invasive.Non-invasive monitoring has not yet reached a level of sufficient accuracy for treatment decisions in clinical practice as invasive monitoring.The gold standard to measure ICP is through an external ventricular drain coupled to an external fluid-filled transducer measurement.The treatment strategy of sTBI is stratified.It can be divided into baseline care, first tier therapies and second tier therapies according to the difficulty of management and treatment risk.The therapeutic targets are mitigating intracranial hypertension, optimizing cerebral perfusion and oxygenation, and preventing or reversing cerebral herniation.From the baseline care, sTBI patients gradually upgrade the therapies until the targets are achieved, so to improve the outcomes of sTBI children.

The effectiveness of Orem self-care model for elderly patients with hip fracture: a Meta-analysis / 中国实用护理杂志

Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness of Orem self-care model for elderly patients with hip fracture.Methods:The databases including Medline, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library Database, Wanfang, CNKI, VIP, and CMB were searched from inception to September 2020. All randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of the Orem self-care model applied in elderly patients with hip fracture were included. Two investigators independently screened research, extracted data and assessed the quality of literature based on standard methods. RevMan 5.3 software was performed to conduct the Meta-analysis.Results:A total of 11 RCTs were included, involving 1 088 patients. Compared with conventional nursing model, self-care model could effectively reduce the incidence of complications during hospitalization ( RR=0.26, 95% CI 0.18-0.39, P<0.001) and improve the Harris scores ( MD=13.33, 95% CI 11.09-15.57, P<0.001) of elderly patients with hip fracture. However, the impacts of self-care model on alleviating postoperative pain was still uncertain. Additionally, the self-care model could shorten hospital stay, but the combined effect size was unavailable due to the high heterogeneity between related studies. Conclusions:In comparison with conventional nursing model, the Orem self-care model was more beneficial to shorten the hospitalization stay, reduce the incidence of postoperative complications and promote hip joint function of elderly patients with hip fractures. To confirm the effectiveness of self-care models in pain management for elderly patients with hip fractures, multicenter RCTs with high quality and large samples are needed.
