ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the evaluation efficacy and predictive prognostic value of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) response in tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in combination with PD-1 inhibitors (α-PD-1) for intermediate-to-advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 205 patients with intermediate-to-advanced HCC who were admitted to 9 medical centers, including Mengchao Hepatobiliary Hospital of Fujian Medical University et al, from March 2020 to July 2022 were collected. There were 178 males and 27 females, aged (52±12)years. Based on AFP response at 6-8 weeks after treatment, patients were divided into the AFP response group (AFP level decreased by ≥50% compared to baseline) and the AFP no response group (AFP level decreased by <50% compared to baseline). Observation indicators: (1) AFP response evaluation of anti-tumor efficacy; (2) comparison of patient prognosis; (3) analysis of factors affecting patient prognosis. Measurement data with normal distrubution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range) and M( Q1, Q3). Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw survival curve and calculate survival rate, and the Log-Rank test was used for survival analysis. The COX proportional risk model was used for univariate analysis and the COX stepwise regression model was used for multivariate analysis. Results:(1) AFP response evaluation of anti-tumor efficacy. Before treatment, all 205 patients were positive of AFP, with a baseline AFP level of 1 560(219,3 400)μg/L. All 205 patients were treated with TKIs in combination with α-PD-1, and the AFP level was 776(66,2 000)μg/L after 6 to 8 weeks of treatment. Of the 205 patients, 88 cases were classified as AFP response and 117 cases were classified as AFP no response. According to the response evaluation criteria in solid tumors version 1.1, the objective response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) were 42.05%(37/88) and 94.32%(83/88) in patients of the AFP response group and 16.24% (19/117) and 64.10% (75/117) in patients of the AFP no response group, showing significant differences between them ( χ2=16.846, 25.950, P<0.05). According to the modified response evaluation criteria in solid tumors, the ORR and DCR were 69.32% (61/88) and 94.32% (83/88) in patients of the AFP response group and 33.33% (39/117) and 64.10% (75/117) in patients of the AFP no response group, showing significant differences between them ( χ2=26.030, 25.950, P<0.05). (2) Comparison of patient prognosis. All 205 patients were followed up for 12.4(range, 2.4-34.0)months after treatment. The median progression free survival time and total survival time were 5.5 months and 17.8 months, respectively. The 1-year, 2-year progression free survival rates were 20.8% and 7.2%, and the 1-year, 2-year overall survival rates were 68.7% and 31.5%, respectively. The median progression free survival time, 1-year and 2-year progression free survival rates were 9.7 months, 39.6% and 14.2% in patients of the AFP response group and 3.7 months, 7.8% and 2.0% in patients of the AFP no response group, showing a significant difference in progression free survival between them ( χ2=43.154, P<0.05). The median overall survival time, 1-year and 2-year overall survival rates were not reached, 85.2% and 56.3% in patients of the AFP response group and 14.6 months, 56.3% and 14.5% in patients of the AFP no response group, showing a significant difference in overall survival between them ( χ2=33.899, P<0.05). (3) Analysis of factors affecting patient prognosis. Results of multivariate analysis showed that invasion of large blood vessels, extrahepatic metastasis, combined hepatic artery intervention therapy, and AFP response were independent factors influencing progression free survival in patients with intermediate-to-advanced HCC who were treated with TKIs in combination with α-PD-1 ( hazard ratio=1.474, 1.584, 0.631, 0.367, 95% confidence interval as 1.069-2.033, 1.159-2.167, 0.446-0.893, 0.261-0.516, P<0.05), and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group score, invasion of large blood vessels, extrahepatic metastasis, and AFP response were independent factors influencing overall survival in patients with intermediate-to-advanced HCC who were treated with TKIs in combination with α-PD-1 ( hazard ratio= 1.347, 1.914, 1.673, 0.312, 95% confidence interval as 1.041-1.742, 1.293-2.833, 1.141-2.454, 0.197-0.492, P<0.05). Conclusions:AFP response at 6-8 weeks after treatment can effectively evaluate anti-tumor efficacy of TKIs in combination with α-PD-1 for intermediate-to-advanced HCC. AFP response is the independent factor influencing progression free survival and overall survival in patients with intermediate-to-advanced HCC who were treated with TKIs in combination with α-PD-1.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the influencing of portal vein embolization (PVE) and PVE combined with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) on secondary hepatectomy and prognosis of patients with initially unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 102 patients with initially unresectable HCC who were admitted to the Third Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University from October 26,2015 to December 31,2022 were collected. There were 82 males and 20 females, aged 52(range,25?73)years. Of 102 patients, 72 cases undergoing PVE combined with TACE were set as the PVE+TACE group, and 30 cases undergoing PVE were set as the PVE group. Observation indicators: (1) surgical resection rate of secondary hepatectomy and increase of future liver remnant (FLR); (2) situations of secondary hepatectomy; (3) follow-up. 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(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 or Fisher exact probability. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rate and draw survival curve, and Log-Rank test was used for survival analysis. Results:(1) Surgical resection rate of secondary hepatectomy and increase of FLR. The surgical resection rate of secondary hepatectomy in the PVE+TACE group and the PVE group were 72.2%(52/72) and 53.3%(16/30), respectively, showing no significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=3.400, P>0.05). The surgical waiting time, increasing volume of FLR, growth rate of FLR in the 52 patients of PVE+TACE group receiving secon-dary hepatectomy were 20(range, 14?140)days, 140(range, 62?424)mL, 9.8(range, 1.5?26.5)mL/day, respectively. The above indicators in the 16 patients of PVE group receiving secondary hepatectomy were 16(range, 12?35)days, 160(range, 95?408)mL, 10.5(range, 1.2?28.0)mL/day, respectively. There was no significant difference in the above indicators between the 52 patients of PVE+TACE group and the 16 patients of PVE group ( Z=1.830, 1.498, 1.266, P>0.05). (2) Situations of secondary hepatectomy. The operation time, rate of tumor necrosis (>90%, 60%?90%,<60%), cases with complications ≥ grade Ⅲa in the 52 patients of PVE+TACE group receiving secondary hepatectomy were 200(range, 125?420)minutes, 8, 4, 40, 28, respectively. The above indicators in the 16 patients of PVE group receiving secondary hepatectomy were 170(range, 105?320)minutes, 0, 0, 16, 4, respectively. There were significant differences in the above indicators between the 52 patients of PVE+TACE group and the 16 patients of PVE group ( Z=2.132, ?2.093, χ2=4.087, P<0.05). (3) Follow-up. Sixty-eight patients who completed the surgery were followed up for 40(range, 10?84)months. The 1-, 3-, 5-year recurrence free survival rate in the 52 patients of PVE+TACE group receiving secondary hepatectomy were 73.0%, 53.3%, 35.4%, respectively. The above indicators in the 16 patients of PVE group were 62.5%, 37.5%, 18.8%, respectively. There was a significant difference in the recurrence free survival rate between the 52 patients of PVE+TACE group and the 16 patients of PVE group ( χ2=4.035, P<0.05). The 1-, 3-, 5-year overall survival rate in the 52 patients of PVE+TACE group receiving secondary hepatectomy were 82.5%, 61.2%, 36.6%, respectively. The above indica-tors in the 16 patients of PVE group receiving secondary hepatectomy were 68.8%, 41.7%,20.8%, respectively. There was a significant difference in the overall survival rate between the 52 patients of PVE+TACE group and the 16 patients of PVE group ( χ2=4.767, P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared with PVE, PVE+TACE as stage Ⅰ surgery can increase the surgical resection rate of secondary hepatec-tomy and the recurrence free survival rate of patients with initially unresectable HCC, prolong the long-term survival time, but not influence the growth rate of FLR.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the predictive value of a regression model based on diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) parameters for prediction of the recurrence risk in patients with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2)-negative early invasive breast cancer.Methods:A retrospective cross-sectional study was designed. The clinicopathological (age, histological grade, Ki-67 level, etc.) and imaging data of 50 patients (50 lesions) with ER-positive, HER-2 negative early invasive breast cancer who underwent treatment at Wuxi People′s Hospital from January 2016 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were female, aged 29 to 81 years, and underwent pre-operation conventional MRI and DKI examinations. The volume of breast fibroglandular tissue (FGT), background parenchymal enhancement (BPE), and internal enhancement features were recorded; the peak enhancement (PH), peak enhancement rate, time to peak, mean kurtosis (MK), and mean diffusivity (MD) were calculated. Based on the 21-gene recurrence risk scores, patients were divided into low recurrence risk group and medium-high recurrence risk group. Independent sample t test, Mann-Whitney U test, χ2 test were used to compare the differences of various indicators between the two groups. Two logistic models were constructed with age, PH, MD, and MK as independent variables (Pre1), and with Ki-67, age, PH, MD, and MK as independent variables (Pre2), respectively. The efficacy of the models in predicting low recurrence risk in patients was assessed using receiver operating characteristic curve and area under the curve (AUC). Results:There were 25 cases in the low recurrence risk group and 25 cases in the medium-high recurrence risk group. The differences in age, FGT, PH, MD, MK, and Ki-67 between the low recurrence risk group and the medium-high recurrence risk group were statistically significant (all P<0.05), while other indexes showed no statistically significant differences (all P>0.05). The AUC of Pre1 in predicting low recurrence risk of ER-positive, HER-2 negative early invasive breast cancer was 0.87, with a sensitivity of 0.76 and specificity of 0.88. The AUC of Pre2 for predicting the low recurrence risk of ER-positive, HER-2 negative early invasive breast cancer was 0.92, with a sensitivity of 0.84, and specificity of 0.92. Conclusions:A multi-parameter model based on DKI can effectively predict the recurrence risk of ER-positive and HER-2 negative breast cancer. The model with combination of Ki-67 can further improve the predictive efficacy, and help effectively identify patients at low recurrence risk.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To study the clinical effects of portal vein embolization (PVE) with N-butyl cyanoacrylate copolymer (NBCA) and with gelatin sponge (GS) as embolization materials in patients with initially unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods:Clinical data of 90 patients with initial unresectable HCC who underwent PVE treatment at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University from November 2014 to April 2020 were included. There were 77 males and 13 females, aged 48 (25, 67) years old. Patients were divided into two groups according to the embolization materials selected in PVE: NBCA group ( n=60) and GS group ( n=30). Forty-eight and 18 patients finally underwent secondary hepatectomy in NBCA group (resectable NBCA group) and GS group (resectable GS group), respectively. Clinical data including future liver remnant (FLR) growth rate and secondary hepatectomy rate were analyzed. Survivals after hepatectomy was followed up by telephone, WeChat, and outpatient review. Results:The secondary hepatectomy rate in NBCA group was higher than that in GS group [80%(48/60) vs. 60%(18/30), P=0.043]. The waiting time from primary intervention to secondary hepatectomy in resectable NBCA group was 15 (7, 96) d, which was shorter than that in resectable GS group [40 (28, 118) d, P<0.001]. The FLR growth rate of resectable NBCA group was 9.03 (1.24, 29.64) ml/d, which was faster than that in resectable GS group [3.76 (0.08, 8.03) ml/d, P<0.001]. The recurrence-free survival (RFS) rates of patients in resectable NBCA group were 69.1%, 62.0% and 44.7% at 1, 2 and 3 years after surgery, and the overall survival (OS) rates were 76.4%, 69.5% and 59.6%, respectively. The RFS rates of patients in resectable GS group were 60.6%, 48.5% and 35.4% at 1, 2 and 3 years after surgery, and the OS rates were 66.7%, 60.6% and 42.4%, respectively. There were no significant differences in RFS and OS between two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:PVE with NBCA and GS as embolization material showed good efficacy in patients with initially unresectable HCC. The FLR growth rate and secondary hepatectomy rate of patients using NBCA were better than those of patients using GS.

ABSTRACT

The treatment principle for primary liver cancer referring as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in this article is comprehensive treatment based on radical hepatectomy. Focusing on improving the resection rate and reducing the recurrence rate after operation, the conversion therapy, preoperative neoadjuvant therapy and postoperative adjuvant therapy have emerged to become potentially curative strategies and research hotspots. HCC is highly invasive and often complicated with cirrhosis, so comprehensive treatment is essential for better prognosis. However, due to the controversy of surgical indications and heterogeneity among individuals, the concepts and treatment methods of above three therapies, especially between the conversion therapy and the preoperative neoadjuvant therapy, remain overlap and puzzle sometimes. Moreover, because of the different therapy goals, the above three therapies are different in the selection of treatment methods, duration of therapy and evaluation criteria. Based on clinical practice, the authors investigate the progress and hot spots of the conversion therapy, preoperative neoadjuvant therapy and post-operative adjuvant therapy of HCC, expecting more clinical evidence-based medicine to standardize the development of comprehensive treatment, so as to become a breakthrough to improve the diagnosis and treatment of HCC.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To observe the expression of serum nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) and monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) in patients with early diabetic nephropathy (EDN) and the effect of pioglitazone on the expression of inflammatory factors and renal protective mechanism.Methods:A retrospective case-control study was conducted.From January 2019 to December 2019, the patients were divided into pioglitazone group ( n=35) and glimepiride group ( n=34). At the same time, 30 healthy people in the physical examination center of our hospital were selected as the control group.The levels of serum NF-κB and MCP-1 were detected by immunohistochemistry.The changes of fasting glucose, Hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c), renal function, urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER), and hypersensitive C-reactive protein(hsCRP), interleukin-6(IL-6), homeostasis model insulin Resistance index (HOMA-IR) were detected and compared among the three groups before treatment, pioglitazone group and glimepiride treatment group after treatment.To observe the effect of pioglitazone on serum NF-kB and MCP-1 expression in patients with early type 2 diabetic nephropathy. Results:Serum NF-κB, MCP-1, UAER, fasting blood glucose, HbA1c, HOMA-IR, hsCRP, IL-6 were significantly higher in the diabetic nephropathy group than those in the control group before treatment ( t values were 9.16, 7.61, 16.99, 17.01, 17.05, 12.01, 8.69, 6.28, all P<0.01). After 12 weeks of treatment, the levels of NF- κB, MCP-1, HOMA-IR, hsCRP, IL-6 and UAER in pioglitazone group were lower than those in glimepiide group ( t values were -5.03, -4.63, -2.35, -8.03, -3.06, -2.10, P<0.05 or P<0.01). After treatment, there were no statistically significant differences in fasting blood glucose and HbA1c between the pioglitazone group and the glimepiide group (all P>0.05). Serum NF-κB, MCP-1, HbA1c, HOMA-IR and UAER in EDN group were significantly positively correlated ( R values were 0.568, 0.532, 0.521, 0.466, all P<0.05). Conclusion:The expression of NF - κ B and MCP-1 in serum of EDN patients was increased, which indicated that there was chronic inflammation in patients.Pioglitazone could down regulate the expression of NF - κ B and MCP-1, so as to play an anti-inflammatory and renal protective role.

ABSTRACT

Surgery is the most important radical treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but less than 30% of HCC patients have the chance for radical surgery at initial diagnosis. How to transform unresectable tumor into the candidate of radical resection becomes an important way to improve the survival rate of HCC and has been a research hotspot in recent years. At present, comprehensive application of the therapies including hepatic artery catheterization, radiotherapy, and targeted therapy can achieve the downstaging of HCC, or portal vein embolization, liver partition, and portal vein ligation can rapidly increase residual liver volume; all these methods can realize successful conversion and help patients obtain the opportunity for radical resection. However, further exploration and studies are needed to investigate how to optimize a variety of treatment modes, standardize the multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment of complex liver cancer, and improve the efficiency and safety of surgical resection.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of Fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron-emission temography-computed tomography (PET-CT) examination in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) staging.Methods The retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted.The clinicopathological data of 190 patients with ICC who were admitted to the Eastern Hepatobiliary Surgery Hospital Affiliated to Naval Military Medical University from September 2013 to June 2016 were collected.There were 107 males and 83 females,aged from 37 to 79 years,with an average age of 57 years.There were 90 cases without distant metastasis undergoing surgery treatment and 100 with distant metastasis undergoing non-surgical treatment.Patients underwent preoperative CT,magnetic resonance imaging (MRI),and PET-CT examination,and then received surgery or non-surgery according to preference of patients and their family members.Observation indicators:(1) imaging features on preoperative CT,MRI,PET-CT examination;(2) treatment;(3) evaluation of tumor diameter,multiple tumors,macrovascular invasion,and bile duct invasion by three examinations in ICC staging of patients undergoing operation;(4) evaluation of regional lymph node metastasis by three tests in ICC staging of patients undergoing operation;(5) evaluation of distant metastasis in ICC staging by three tests.Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean±SD,and comparison between groups was analyzed by single factor ANOVA and paired comparison was analyzed by SNK method.Measurement data with skewed distribution were described as M (range).Count data were described as absolute number or percentage,and comparison between groups was analyzed using the chi square test.Results (1) Imaging features on preoperative CT,MRI,PET-CT examination:all the 190 patients received routine upper abdominal CT,MRI,and systemic PET-CT examination before treatment.CT imaging of ICC showed inhomogeneous low density on plain scan,peripheral enhancement in arterial phase,persistent enhancement of tumor margin in portal phase,and sometimes mild to moderate centripetal enhancement.MRI imaging showed heterogeneous low signal on T1-weighted imaging,uneven high,and slightly high signal on T2-weighted imaging.Reinforcement on MRI is the same as CT.Transverse images,fusion transverse images and maximum intensity projection images of PET-CT imaging showed abnormal high FDG uptake around the tumor.(2) Treatment:81 out of the 90 ICC patients with surgery treatment underwent hepatectomy and lymphadenectomy,and 9 underwent only tumor tissue biopsy and lymph node biopsy due to intraoperative finding of abdominal metastasis.Of the 100 non-operated patients,30 received systemic chemotherapy,23 received local radiotherapy,and 47 gave up treatment.(3) Evaluation of tumor diameter,multiple tumors,macrovascular invasion,and bile duct invasion by three examinations in ICC staging of patients undergoing operation:the tumor diameters of ICC on CT,MRI and PET-CT were (6.8±2.8)cm,(6.9±2.9)cm,(7.2±2.8)cm,respectively.There was no significant difference among the three methods (F=0.085,P>0.05).CT,MRI,PET-CT had similar accuracy of 80.0% (72/90),78.9% (71/90),72.2% (65/90) on diagnosing multiple tumors,87.8%(79/90),92.2% (83/90),94.4% (85/90) for macrovascular invasion,and 93.3% (84/90),95.6% (86/90),96.7% (87/90) for vascular and bile duct invasion,respectively,there was no significant difference in the above indicators between the three groups (x2 =1.801,2.662,1.131,P>0.05).(4) Evaluation of regional lymph node metastasis by three examinations in ICC staging of patients undergoing operation:the accuracy of CT,MRI and PET-CT examination for lymph node metastasis was 62.2% (56/90),68.9%(62/90),86.7% (78/90) and sensitivity was 40.0% (16/40),47.5% (19/40),80.0% (32/40),respectively,showing significant differences between the three groups (x2 =14.446,14.666,P<0.05),showing a significant difference between CT and PET-CT examination (x2=14.134,13.333,P<0.05),showing a significant difference between MRI and PET-CT examination (x2=8.229,9.141,P<0.05).The sensitivity of CT,MRI and PET-CT examination for lymph node metastasis was 80.0% (40/50),86.0% (43/50),92.0% (46/50),showing no significant difference between the three groups (x2=2.990,P>0.05).(5) Evaluation of distant metastasis in ICC staging by three tests:there were 27,34 and 100 cases with distant metastasis evaluated by CT,MRI and PET-CT examination,including 40 with supraclavicular lymph node metastasis,32 with bone metastasis,30 with mediastinal lymph node metastasis,20 with hilar lymph node metastasis,17 with pulmonary metastasis;77 patients had more than 2 sites of metastasis.The accuracy of CT,MRI and PET-CT examination for distal metastasis in 190 ICC patients was 61.58% (117/190),65.26% (124/190),98.42% (187/190),respectively,with a significant difference between the three groups (x2=83.639,P<0.05),with a significant difference between CT and PET-CT examination (x2=80.592,P<0.05),between MRI and PET-CT examination (x2=70.284,P< 0.05).Conclusion PET-CT examination makes up for the deficiency of CT and MRI in judging regional lymph node metastasis and distant metastasis,and contributes to the clinical staging of ICC.

ABSTRACT

With the development of diagnostic and screening technologies,the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with extrahepatic metastasis is increasing and surgical rate is also increasing.There is currently no standard of treatment.Four famous experts and their teams in hepatic surgery discussed reasonability of surgical treatment for HCC with extrahepatic metastasis based on clinical experiences.Professor Geng Xiaoping suggested that HCC with extrahepatic metastasis was classified as advanced HCC,however,under the premise of strict control of indications,selective patients undergoing comprehensive treatment combined with surgical procedures could achieve good prognosis.For some rare liver malignancies,active surgical treatment for extrahepatic metastasis based on comprehensive treatment was recommended.Professor Zhou Jian proposed that resection of intrahepatic lesions in HCC with extrahepatic metastasis should be based on the premise of whether to prolong the survival of patients.He advocated choice of individualized treatment and comprehensive treatment of multiple methods to benefit patients' survival.The necessary intrahepatic lesion resection was a positive and feasible treatment strategy.Professor Wang Jie shared the diagnosis and treatment of 2 patients with HCC and extrahepatic metastasis,suggested that primary tumor resection might have a favorable impact on the prognosis of these patients with resectable primary tumors.Therefore,surgical treatment was important for HCC patients with extrahepatic metastasis,and surgical therapy combined with personalized systemic treatment showed survival benefit for selected patients.Professor Zhou Weiping recommended that choosing surgery for HCC with extrahepatic metastasis should be extraordinarily cautious.Priority should be given to improving the survival rate of patients.In the case of effective control or complete necrosis of extrahepatic metastases,hepatic primary tumor resection was still the current mainstream opinion.

At present,the early diagnosis rate of primary liver cancer is still low in China.The early diagnosis rate according with Milan standard is only 20%-30%,which affects the survival rate of liver cancer after treatment.This phenomenon has some reasons.The first,regular screening of high risk population of liver cancer is not enough;the second,Hepatitis carriers have low awareness of the correlation between hepatitis and liver cancer;the third,diagnosis of liver occupying lesions by medical staff is nonstandard.The diagnostic specification and detailed process of primary liver cancer have been released and regularly updated at home and abroad.However,the implementation of the diagnostic process is still not very strict,which leads to delayed diagnosis and treatment.Based on the direction of primary liver cancer and the analysis for the causes of early diagnosis rate of primary liver cancer at home and abroad,this paper focused on the problems that should be paid attention to in the standardized diagnosis process of primary liver cancer,and systematically elaborated the way to improving early diagnosis rate of primary liver cancer.

ABSTRACT

Mechanical ventilation is a medical method used frequently in critically ill patients after operation in the department of surgery, but its own invasive nature often causes great discomfort, inducing anxiety and irritability to the patients, therefore, postoperatively analgesic and sedative drug treatments are often necessary. With the general progress and attention paid on the critical care medicine, more and more people have studied the analgesic and sedative schemes for mechanical ventilation patients. In this article, the related contents in recent years concerning commonly used analgesic and sedative drugs, the standard criteria for analgesic and sedative therapy, the application of analgesic evaluation tool, and the analgesic and sedative therapy in domestic and abroad nursing intervention in ICU were reviewed and summarized.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of capecitabine in the treatment of colorectal cancer. Methods Totally 160 elderly patients with stageⅣcolorectal cancer were enrolled in this study. After first-line combined chemotherapy,80 patients were treated with capecitabine monotherapy(maintenance group)and another 80 cases were not(control group). The survival rate was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier curve and the efficiency and incidence of adverse events were compared. Results (1) The Kaplan-Meier curve suggested that the difference between two groups was statistically significant(P<0.05).(2)The response rate of maintenance group was significantly higher than that of control group (P < 0.05). (3)The incidence of adverse events during capecitabine monotherapy was lower than that during combined chemotherapy(P < 0.05).(4)The incidence of adverse reactions during capecitabine monotherapy was similar to that of control group(P > 0.05). Conclusion Capecitabine monotherapy in patients with stage Ⅳ colorectal cancer after combined chemotherapy has a longer median PFS than those without maintenance but similar adverse reactions ,which was worthy of clinical promotion.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To discuss the application of three dimentional(3D)visualization technologies in treatment plan of hepatic malignant tumor.@*Methods@#The clinical data of 300 patients with liver malignant tumor who received treatment from January 2016 to January 2017 in the Third Department of Hepatic Surgery of Eastern Hepatobiliary Surgery Hospital was retrospectively analyzed in this study, including 221 male and 79 female patients aged from 7 to 76 years with median age of 54 years. The median height was 168 cm (115-183 cm), the median weight was 65 kg (20-105 kg) and the median tumor volume was 142 ml (23-2 493 ml). Three-dimensional visualization technology was used in all patients to reconstruct liver three-dimensional graphics. Also, two and three-dimensional methods were taken respectively to evaluate patients and develop treatment strategy. The change of treatment strategy caused by 3D evaluation, actual surgical plan, operation time, time of hepatic vascular occlusion, intraoperative blood loss, volumes of blood transfusion and postoperative complications was observed.@*Results@#After three-dimensional visualization technology was applied, 75(25%) of 300 patients′ treatment strategies had been changed. The range of hepatectomy was extended in 25 patients. And 7 of them were due to hepatic venous variation, which resulted in increasing drainage area. In other 4 patients, liver resections were extended due to lack of perfusion of the liver parenchyma after the removal of portal vein. And hepatectomy was expanded in 14 patients in order to increase the surgical margin. The range of hepatectomy was reduced in 8 patients, 4 of which were due to hepatic venous variation, such as hepatic vein of segment 4 or lower right posterior hepatic vein. The remaining 4 cases were because of insufficient residual liver volume.The surgical resection was performed in 278 cases, 257 of which received operation directly. Left hepatectomy was performed in 24 patients and right hepatectomy was performed in 33 patients. Left trisectionectomy was carried out in 12 patients and right trisectionectomy was carried out in 11 patients. Caudate lobectomy was applied in 10 patients. There were 18 cases of left lateral sectionectomy, 7 cases of right anterior sectionectomy, 25 cases of right posterior sectionectomy and 18 cases of mesohepatectomy. Single or multi segment resection was performed in 99 patients. The treatment strategy of thirty-six patients was converted to staged hepatectomy (ALPPS 11 cases and portal vein embolization 25 cases). The median operation time was 130 minutes (90-360 minutes) and the median inflow blood occlusion time was 20 minutes (0-75 minutes). Median blood loss volume was 200 ml (20-1 600 ml). Thirty-seven of 278 patients received transfusions, and the average red blood transfusion volume was (4.4±1.7)units (0-8 units). Median hepatic resection volume was 530 ml(30-2 600 ml). There were 117 cases of pleural effusion after operation, including 3 patients needing invasive therapy. Ascites occurred in 23 patients, 6 of whom needed invasive therapy. Biliary leakage was observed in 30 patients. Eight patients occurred hepatic cutting surface hemorrhage, 6 of whom received blood transfusion, and 4 of whom underwent laparotomy to stop bleeding. Three patients had pulmonary infection after surgery and 3 patients appeared biliary obstruction. Deep vein thrombosis took place in 2 patients and portal vein thrombosis was observed in 4 patients. No postoperative liver failure and death ever happened in our study group.@*Conclusion@#Three-dimensional visualization technique can optimize the treatment strategy of patients with liver malignant tumor, improve surgical safety.
