RESUMO
Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in the treatment of superficial esophageal cancer (SEC), and to explore the application value of ESD in the treatment of SEC.Methods:From January 2016 to December 2019, at The First Affiliated Hospital With Nanjing Medical University, the clinical data of 368 patients with SEC and receiving ESD treatment were retrospectively analyzed, induding the general condition, the circumferential proportion of lesions, effectiveness of ESD treatment (en bloc resection rate, complete resection rate, curative resection rate, operation time and resected lesion area), incidence of complications and follow-up. 368 patients were divided into stenosis group (94 cases) and non-stenosis group (274 cases) according to the occurrence of esophageal stenosis after ESD. The circumferential proportion of lesions, operation time and resected lesion area were compared between stenosis group and non-stenosis group, and the independent risk factors of esophageal stenosis after ESD were analyzed. Independent sample t test, chi-square test and binary logistic regression analysis were used for statistical analysis. Results:Among 368 patients, 270(73.4%) were male and 98 (26.6%) were female; the age was (64.4±7.6) years old. The circumferential proportion of lesions of 231 cases (62.8%) was <1/2 circle, 49 cases (13.3%) was 1/2 to <2/3 circle, and 88 cases (23.9%) was ≥2/3 circle. The en bloc resection rate of the lesion was 98.6%(363/368), the complete resection rate and curative resection rate were both 97.8% (360/368). The operation time was (89.4±47.9) min. The area of resected lesion was (12.5±8.9) cm 2. The incidence of perforation during operation, delayed bleeding and stenosis was 0.3% (1/368), 0.5% (2/368) and 25.5% (94/368), respectively. The followed-up period was 8 to 53 months, and the median follow-up period was 25 months. During the follow-up period, no recurrence or new lesion was found, and no lymph node or distant metastasis occurred. The circumferential proportion of lesions of 38 cases (40.4%) of stenosis group and 193 cases (70.4%) of non-stenosis group was <1/2 circle, respectively, the circumferential proportion of lesions of 9 cases (9.6%) and 40 cases (14.6%) was 1/2 to <2/3 circle, respectively, the circumferential proportion of lesions of 47 cases (50.0%) and 41 cases (15.0%) was ≥2/3 circle, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=47.30, P<0.01). The operation time of stenosis group was longer than that of non-stenosis group, the resected lesion area was larger than that of non-stenosis group ((126.1±56.3) min vs. (76.8±37.2) min, (17.5±10.7) cm 2 vs. (10.8±7.4) cm 2), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=9.57 and 5.41, both P<0.01). The results of binary logistic regression analysis showed that circumferential proportion of lesions ≥2/3 circle, operation time and the resected lesion area were independent risk factors for the occurrence of esophageal stenosis after ESD (odds ratio=0.253, 1.018 and 1.041, 95% confidence interval 0.116 to 0.551, 1.011 to 1.025, 1.007 to 1.076, all P<0.05). Conclusions:ESD is a safe and effective way to treat SEC, with low local recurrence rate and few complications, which is worthy of further clinical promotion.
RESUMO
To explore the effect of proton pump inhibitors (PPI) on the micro-structure of bone in older men. A retrospective study was conducted on data of patients over the age of 60 who were admitted to the Geriatric Department of Jiangsu People′s Hospital from June 2018 to January 2019. Patients were divided into control group (taking PPI for less than 1 week, 50 cases) and PPI treatment group (taking PPI for more than 3 months, 30 cases). Biochemical indexes, bone mineral density (BMD)and trabecular bone score (TBS) were analyzed. Compared with control group, the weight and albumin level in the PPI treatment group were lower, and the thyrotropin level was higher ( P<0.05). There was no statistical difference in the BMD of femur or lumbar vertebrae between the two groups ( P>0.05), but the TBS of lumbar vertebrae in the PPI treatment group was significantly decreased ( P<0.05). Correlation analysis found that TBS was positively correlated with alkaline phosphatase (ALP) ( r=0.45, P=0.002) and body mass index ( r=0.164, P=0.045), and negatively correlated with age ( r=-0.291, P=0.025). Multiple linear regression model analysis showed that there was still a positive correlation between TBS and ALP ( β=0.437, P=0.023). In the elderly men, the use of PPI for more than 3 months can significantly affect the bone micro-structure, and the bone micro-structure can better reflect the adverse effect of PPI on bone than BMD.
