RESUMO
Objective To evaluate endoscopic surgical treatment of synchronous esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinonm at the esophagogastric junction.Methods The clinical data of 17 patients with synchronous esophageal squamous cell carcinoma associated with adenocarcinoma of esophagogatric junction between Jan 2010 and Jan 2017 were analyzed retrospectively.Results Among these 17 patients,9 patients underwent thoracoscopy and laparoscopy with partial resection of esophagus and proximal stomach,and gastroesophageal and neck anastomosis.3 patients underwent thoracoscopy and laparoscopy with partial resection of esophagus and proximal stomach,gastroesophageal intrathoracic anastomosis.Laparoscopic radical total gastrectomy combined with radiotherapy for esophageal cancer was performed in 5 cases.There was not perioperative death or serious complications.The cumulative survival rates of 1,3 and 5 years after surgery were 100％,42％ and 24％,respectively.Conclusion Thoracolaparscopic surgery combined with local radiation therapy is a safe and effective treatment for patients with synchronous esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma at esophagogastric junction.
RESUMO
Objective To observed the expression of serum TNF-α and IL-10 in rats with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) at different altitudes,and to explore the relationships between TNF-α and IL-10,the pathological changes of the pancreas,and the experimental basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment of SAP.Methods 72 specific pathogen free (SPF) Wistar male rats were divided randomly into three groups:1 500 meters altitude (group L),3 300 meters altitude (group M),and 4 300 meters altitude (group H).These three groups were then each divided randomly into four subgroups:control (group n),6 hours after pancreatitis (group p 6 h),12 hours after pancreatitis (group p 12 h),and 24 hours after pancreatitis (group p 24 h).Pancreatitis was induced by intraductal administration of 5％ sodium taurocholate hydrate (NaTc).The rats were killed at 6,12,and 24 hours after NaTc injection in groups p.The group n rats were killed after 6 hours of pancreas observation.Blood samples and pancreatic tissues were collected post mortem and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) measured serum TNF-α and IL-10.Results Compared with the control (group n),histopathological scores,IL-10,and TNF-α in the same altitude had a significant difference (P ＜ 0.05) in group p at each time point.In the same altitude of group p,histopathological scores and IL-10 were increased with time elapsed (P ＜ 0.05),while TNF-α was decreased with time elapsed (P ＜ 0.05).There was a significant difference between group Mp and Lp in histopathological scores,IL-10,and TNF-α (P ＜ 0.05),and the same result between group Hp and Lp (P ＜ 0.05),but there was no significant difference between group Hp and Mp (P ＜ 0.05).Meanwhile,IL-10 had a positive relationship with histopathological score,but TNF-α had a negative relationship with histopathological score.Conclusions The level of TNF-α increased with increasing altitude but significantly reduced with elapsed time.The level of IL-10 increased with both increasing altitude elapsed time.These results suggested that TNF-o and IL-10 might play a important role at different times in severe acute pancreatitis.
RESUMO
Objective To compare the clinical therapeutic effect of radical resection of esophageal carcinoma under combination of thoracoscopy and laparoscopy (RECTL) with traditional radical resection of esophageal carcinoma(TREC).Methods 80 patients receiving RECTL and 80 patients receiving TREC were chosen in our hospital.The general conditions during operation,pathologic data,postoperative complications and recurrence or metastasis rates were compared between two groups.Results Compared with TREC group,RECTL group had longer operation time 、less bleeding、less postoperative chest drainage liquid amount and less postoperative morphine administration (P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0.01).The postoperative hospital stays were not statistically different between the two groups(P ＞0.05).The length of resected esophagus specimen and tumor near end cutting edge length in RECTL group are longer than that in TREC group,but with the former no statistically different(P ＞0.05) and the latter statistically different(P ＜ 0.05).There were no statistical differences about the number of dissected lymph nodes and the incidence of complications and local recurrence by cut plant between the two groups(P ＞ 0.05).The incidence of postoperative reflux gastritis was 7.1％ in RECTL group and 45 ％ in TREC group,with significantly statistical difference(P ＜0.01).The two groups had similar recurrence or metastasis rate(P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Radical resection of esophageal carcinoma under combination of thoracoscopy and laparoscopy,with small wound and early recovery,has the same effect as traditional operational resection of esophageal carcinoma.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the association of C20orf54 gene rs3746804 position single nucleotide polymorphism and susceptibility to esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).Methods Purification of genomic DNA from whole blood was used the Maxwell(R) 16 System.rs3746804 in C20ort54 was detected by direct sequencing in 434 ESCC patients from Changzhi (Shanxi province) and Linzhou (Henan province) and 554 healthy controls from Changzhi,Linzhou and including immigrators from Linzhou to Changzhi.Results For rs3746804,the genotypic frequencies of CT(37.5％ vs 51.0％,37.5％ vs 52.0％),CC (44.2％ vs 34.8％,44.2％ vs 33.0％) in Changzhi ESCC patients showed significant differences with healthy Changzhi controls and the healthy immigrator controls (all P ＜ 0.05),and the frequencies of TT(18.3％ vs 4.1％) and CC (44.2％ vs 54.6％) in Changzhi ESCC patients showed significant differences with Linzhou ESCC patients (all P ＜0.05).The genotypic frequencies of TT (4.1％ vs 15.0％),CT (41.2％ vs 52.0％) and CC(54.6％ vs 33.0％) showed significant differences between Linzhou ESCC patients and the healthy immigrator controls (all P ＜ 0.05),and the frequencies of TT (4.1％ vs 14.1％) and CC (54.6％ vs 34.8％) showed significant differences between Linzhou ESCC patients and Changzhi healthy controls (all P ＜ 0.01).Meanwhile,there were significant differences between ESCC patients (including Changzhi and Linzhou ESCC patients) and healthy controls (including the healthy Changzhi,Linzhou and immigrator controls) in genotypic frequencies of CT(39.2％ vs 48.7％) and CC (48.8％ vs 38.2％) (all P ＜ 0.01).CT and CT + TT genotype could decrease the risk of ESCC compared with the CC genotype (OR =0.630,95％ CI0.481-0.826 ; OR =0.654,95％ CI 0.507-0.844).Conclusion There is a closed relationship between SNP rs3746804 in C20orf54 and susceptibility to ESCC.
RESUMO
ObjectiveTo study the relationship between plasma riboflavin levels and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.Methods We detected and compared plasma concentrations of riboflavin in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and immigrants of Linzhou living in Changzhi.Plasma riboflavin levels were quantified in 445 ESCC patients,689 healthy control subjects and 347 immigrants of Linzhou living in Changzhi by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.ResultsThe plasma riboflavin levels in patients with ESCC were significantly lower than those in the healthy controls and immigrants of Linzhou living in Changzhi [ (731.69 ± 330.67 ) μg/L vs ( 1090.43 ± 445.08 ) μg/L,(731.69 ± 330.67) μg/L vs ( 897.58 ± 177.78) μg/L,respectively,all P ＜ 0.05 ],and the plasma riboflavin levels of the healthy controls were higher than those in the immigrants of Linzhou living in Changzhi (P ＜ 0.05).ConclusionPatients with ESCC have decreased plasma riboflavin levels as compared with the healthy controls and immigrants of Linzhou living in Changzhi,there exists a lack of riboflavin in ESCC patients,but the specific mechanism needs further study.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the mRNA expression of survivin, livin and XIAP gene in peripheral blood of patients with gastric cancer and its relationship with clinico-pathological features.Methods This study included 50 patients with gastric cancer and 20 healthy donors. The expression of survivin, livin and XIAP gene was detected by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-QPCR) using a molecular beacon probe, while recombination plasmid containing the sequence of survivin, livin and XIAP was standard. The relationship between copies of survivin, livin and XIAP gene expression in peripheral blood with gastric cancer and clinical data was analyzed. Results A linear standard curve was obtained between 103 ～ 1010 copies. The copies of survivin, livin and XIAP mRNA in peripheral blood of patients with gastric cancer did not correlate with gender, age, and histological types ( P ＞ 0.05). There were positive relationships between copies of survivin, livin and XIAP gene with lymph node metastasis and TNM stage (P ＜0.05 ). The expression of survivine, livin and XIAP was all negative in peripheral blood of healthy people. 52% (17/33) of patients suffered from recurrence or metastasis who had positive expression of survivin and/or livin and/or XIAP mRNA, while it was 18% (3/17)among the negative survivin and/or livin and/or XIAP mRNA caces ( P ＜ 0.05). Conclusions The expression of survivin, livin and XIAP mRNA can be used to detecte micro-metastasis in peripheral blood circulation of gastric cancer.
