Predictive value of combined preoperative fibrinogen and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio for the prognosis of pancreatic cancer patients after radical surgery / 中华普通外科杂志

Objective:To evaluate the prediction value of preoperative Fibrinogen(FIB) in combination with neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio(NLR)for the prognosis of operable pancreatic cancer patients.Methods:The clinical data of 124 patients who underwent radical resection for pancreatic cancer in our hospital from Jan 2010 to Dec 2018 were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into three groups according the high and low NLR, FIB value which defined by the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). The clinicopathological data and overall median survival time were compared between the three groups.Results:Univarate analysis showed that age, tumor stage, NLR, FIB and F-NLR score were associated with the prognosis( P<0.05), while multivariate analysis showed that high F-NLR score was the independent prognostic factor. The median survival time of patients with F-NLR scores 0, 1 and 2 group was 30.6, 20.3 and 13.9 months( P<0.05). The prognosis of high F-NLR score was significantly worse than that of low F-NLR score( P<0.05). Conclusions:A high preoperative F-NLR score was a promising predictor for the prognosis of pancreatic cancer patients after radical resection.

Roles of multidisciplinary team (MDT) in diagnosis and treatment of suspected cases of corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) / 浙江大学学报·医学版

OBJECTIVE@#To analyze the roles of multidisciplinary team (MDT) in the diagnosis and treatment of suspected cases of corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19).@*METHODS@#The clinical data of 48 patients with suspected COVID-19 admitted in Jinhua Central Hospital from January 21, 2020 to March 20, 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.@*RESULTS@#Of the 48 suspected cases, 18 were diagnosed with COVID-19, and 30 were excluded. Each of the confirmed cases were discussed among MDT for 2 to 12 times with an average of (4.7±3.2) times; while for non-COVID-19 patients were discussed for 2 to 4 times with an average of (2.3±0.6) times per case. With the guidance of MDT, one COVID-19 patient was transferred to designated provincial hospital after effective treatment; one patient complicated with acute cholecystitis underwent gallbladder puncture and drainage; and COVID-19 was excluded in a highly suspected patient after alveolar lavage fluid examination. Except one transferred patient, all 17 confirmed COVID-19 patients were cured and discharged; there was no cross-infection occurred in suspected patients during the hospitalization; there were no deaths and no medical staff infections.@*CONCLUSIONS@#The efficiency of diagnosis and treatment for suspected COVID-19 patients can be improved under MDT mode, particularly for complicated and refractory cases.

Surgical treatment for hepatic metastases from colorectal carcinoma / 中华胃肠外科杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the indications and effect of surgical resection for hepatic metastases from colorectal adenocarcinoma and to discuss the implications of clinicopathologic features on the prognosis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A retrospective study of 61 patients undergoing hepatectomy for metastatic tumors from colorectal adenocarcinoma from January 1991 to December 2000 in our hospital was performed retrospectively.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rates after hepatic resection were 72.13%, 58.10% and 26.01% respectively. Complications occurred in 8 cases. Tumor pesudomembrance was found in 20 cases. Dukes stage, pathologic type,the number of hepatic metastases and tumor pesudomembrance were all significant factors for prognosis after surgery (P< 0.05). The 3-year survival rate of the patients with postoperative comprehensive treatment was higher than that with non-postoperative treatment (P< 0.05). The size of hepatic metastases and the resecting time didn't affect the prognosis (P > 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The hepatic metastases from colorectal cancer should be treated by a surgical approach. The earlier stage of clinical pathology,higher differentiation extent, metastases less than 3, the formation of pesudomembrance of the metastatic tumor and the postoperative comprehensive treatment predict a better survival.</p>
