RESUMO
@#Objective To discuss the safety and feasibility of no chest tube (NCT) after thoracoscopic pneumonectomy. Methods The online databases including PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), WanFang Database, VIP, China Biology Medicine disc (CBMdisc) were searched by computer from inception to October 2020 to collect the research on NCT after thoracoscopic pneumonectomy. Two reviewers independently screened the literature, extracted the data, and evaluated the quality of the included studies. The RevMan 5.3 software was used for meta-analysis. Results A total of 17 studies were included. There were 12 cohort studies and 5 randomized controlled trials including 1 572 patients with 779 patients in the NCT group and 793 patients in the chest tube placement (CTP) group. Meta–analysis results showed that the length of postoperative hospital stay in the NCT group was shorter than that in the CTP group (SMD=–1.23, 95%CI –1.59 to –0.87, P<0.000 01). Patients in the NCT group experienced slighter pain than those in the CTP group at postoperative day (POD)1 (SMD=–0.97, 95%CI –1.42 to –0.53, P<0.000 1), and POD2 (SMD=–1.10, 95%CI –2.00 to –0.20, P=0.02), while no statistical difference was found between the two groups in the visual analogue scale of POD3 (SMD=–0.92, 95%CI –1.91 to 0.07, P=0.07). There was no statistical difference in the 30-day complication rate (RR=0.93, 95%CI 0.61 to 1.44, P=0.76), the rate of postoperative chest drainage (RR=1.51, 95%CI 0.68 to 3.37, P=0.31) or the rate of thoracocentesis (RR=2.81, 95%CI 0.91 to 8.64, P=0.07) between the two groups. No death occurred in the perioperative period in both groups. Conclusion It is feasible and safe to omit the chest tube after thoracoscopic pneumonectomy for patients who meet the criteria.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the effect of different concentrations of Echinococcus multilocularis secretion antigen (Em-sAg) on the phenotype and function of mouse bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Methods The bone marrow precursor cells isolated from the mouse bone marrow cavity were stimulated by mouse recombinant granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) to form BMDCs, and then cell morphology was observed under an inverted microscope. After the purity of BMDCs was identified by flow cytometry, BMDCs were divided into control group, positive control group (LPS 1 μg/ml), LPS+3 mg/ml Em-sAg group, LPS+1.5 mg/ml Em-sAg group, LPS+0.75 mg/ml Em-sAg group, and LPS+0.375 mg/ml Em-sAg group. Flow cytometry was used to measure the expression of BMDC surface molecules (CD80, CD86, and MHC-Ⅱ molecules) in each group, and ELISA was used to measure the expression level of the cytokine IL-12p70. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between multiple groups, and the least significant difference t -test was used for further comparison between two groups. Results Observation under an inverted microscope showed that after 8-10 days of culture, the cells had burr-like protrusions and were in a state of complete suspension. Flow cytometry showed that the positive rate of CD11c was above 70% and most of the cultured cells were identified as BMDCs based on this. Flow cytometry further showed that compared with the control group, the LPS group had significant increases in the cell molecules CD80, CD86, and MHC-Ⅱ on surface (all P 0.05). ELISA showed that there was a significant difference in the level of IL-12 p70 between groups ( F =73.140, P < 0.05); compared with the control group, the LPS group had a significant increase in the expression level of IL-12p70 after stimulation ( P < 0.05); compared with the positive control group, the LPS+3 mg/ml Em-sAg group, the LPS+1.5 mg/ml Em-sAg group, the LPS+0.75 mg/ml Em-sAg group, and the LPS+0.375 mg/ml Em-sAg group had a significant reduction in the expression level of IL-12p70 ( P < 0.05), and the degree of reduction in the pro-inflammatory factor IL-12p70 increased with the increase in the concentration of Em-sAg. Conclusion Different concentrations of Em-sAg can inhibit LPS-induced maturity of BMDCs and the expression of the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-12p70.
RESUMO
Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is an autoimmune-mediated abnormal chronic inflammatory disorder and is often misdiagnosed as pancreatic neoplastic lesions. With in-depth studies of this disease in recent years, it has been taken seriously by hepatobiliary physicians and surgeons. This article summarizes the clinical features, diagnostic criteria, and treatment methods for autoimmune pancreatitis at the present stage, so as to provide clinicians with diagnosis and treatment experience to reduce clinical misdiagnosis.
