RESUMO
@#Objective To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of jejunostomy tube versus nasojejunal tube for enteral nutrition after radical resection of esophageal cancer. Methods PubMed, EMbase, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP and CBM databases were searched to collect the clinical effects of jejunostomy tube versus nasojejunal nutrition tube after radical resection of esophageal cancer from inception to October 2021. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 software. Results Twenty-six articles were included, including 17 randomized controlled studies and 9 cohort studies, with a total of 35 808 patients. Meta-analysis results showed that: in the jejunostomy tube group, the postoperative exhaust time (MD=–4.27, 95%CI –5.87 to –2.66, P=0.001), the incidence of pulmonary infection (OR=1.39, 95%CI 1.06 to 1.82, P=0.02), incidence of tube removal (OR=0.11, 95%CI 0.04 to 0.30, P=0.001), incidence of tube blockage (OR=0.47, 95%CI 0.23 to 0.97, P=0.04), incidence of nasopharyngeal discomfort (OR=0.04, 95%CI 0.01 to 0.13, P=0.001), the incidence of nasopharyngeal mucosal damage (OR=0.13, 95%CI 0.04 to 0.42, P=0.008), the incidence of nausea and vomiting (OR=0.20, 95%CI 0.08 to 0.47, P=0.003) were significantly shorter or lower than those of the nasojejunal tube group. The postoperative serum albumin level (MD=5.75, 95%CI 5.34 to 6.16, P=0.001) was significantly better than that of the nasojejunal tube group. However, the intraoperative operation time of the jejunostomy tube group (MD=13.65, 95%CI 2.32 to 24.98, P=0.02) and the indent time of the postoperative nutrition tube (MD=17.81, 95%CI 12.71 to 22.91, P=0.001) were longer than those of the nasojejunal nutrition tube. At the same time, the incidence of postoperative intestinal obstruction (OR=6.08, 95%CI 2.55 to 14.50, P=0.001) was significantly higher than that of the nasojejunal tube group. There were no statistical differences in the length of postoperative hospital stay or the occurrence of anastomotic fistula between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion In the process of enteral nutrition after radical resection of esophageal cancer, jejunostomy tube has better clinical treatment effect and is more comfortable during catheterization, but the incidence of intestinal obstruction is higher than that of traditional nasojejunal tube.
RESUMO
@# Objective To systematically evaluate the application effect of CT-guided Hook-wire localization and CT-guided microcoil localization in pulmonary nodules surgery. Methods The literatures on the comparison between CT-guided Hook-wire localization and CT-guided microcoil localization for pulmonary nodules were searched in PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Wanfang, VIP and CNKI databases from the inception to October 2021. Review Manager (version 5.4) software was used for meta-analysis. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) was used to evaluate the quality of studies. Results A total of 10 retrospective cohort studies were included, with 1 117 patients including 473 patients in the CT-guided Hook-wire localization group and 644 patients in the CT-guided microcoil localization group. The quality of the studies was high with NOS scores>6 points. The result of meta-analysis showed that the difference in the localization operation time (MD=0.14, 95%CI −3.43 to 3.71, P=0.940) between the two groups was not statistically significant. However, the localization success rate of the Hook-wire group was superior to the microcoil group (OR=0.35, 95%CI 0.17 to 0.72, P=0.005). In addition, in comparison with Hook-wire localization, the microcoil localization could reduce the dislocation rate (OR=4.33, 95%CI 2.07 to 9.08, P<0.001), the incidence of pneumothorax (OR=1.62, 95%CI 1.12 to 2.33, P=0.010) and pulmonary hemorrhage (OR=1.64, 95%CI 1.07 to 2.51, P=0.020). Conclusion Although Hook-wire localization is slightly better than microcoil localization in the aspect of the success rate of pulmonary nodule localization, microcoil localization has an obvious advantage compared with Hook-wire localization in terms of controlling the incidence of dislocation, pneumothorax and pulmonary hemorrhage. Therefore, from a comprehensive perspective, this study believes that CT-guided microcoil localization is a preoperative localization method worthy of further promotion.
RESUMO
@#Since the first case of corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) at the end of 2019, the virus has spread rapidly around the world and has become a global public health problem. In the process of this virus epidemic, compared with the general population, cancer patients are considered to be highly susceptible people, especially the lung cancer patients. Some studies have shown that angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) may be the pathway for SARS-CoV-2 to infect the host. At the same time, ACE2 is often abnormally expressed in non-small cell lung cancer. Therefore, understanding the respective mechanisms of ACE2 in COVID-19 and non-small cell lung cancer has extremely important reference value for the study of vaccines and therapeutic drugs, and also provides meaningful guidance for the protection of patients with lung cancer during the epidemic. This article reviews the possible invasive mechanism of ACE2 in SARS-CoV-2 and its abnormal expression in non-small cell lung cancer.
RESUMO
Objective To systematically evaluate the effect of sequence of pulmonary artery and vein transection in thoracoscopic lobectomy on the efficacy and safety of patients with non-small cell lung cancer. Methods PubMed, EMbase, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP and CBM databases were searched for the researches on The post-operative efficacy of pulmonary arteriovenous and pulmonary vein resection sequence in thoracoscopic lobectomy for non-small cell lung cancer. The retrieval time is from the database construction to May 2022. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 software. Results Eight articles were included, including 3 randomized controlled studies and 5 cohort studies, with a total of 1810 patients. Meta-analysis results showed that: The operative time (MD=13.34, 95%CI(7.36, 19.32), P < 0.0001) and intraoperative blood loss (MD=45.29, 95%CI(40.24, 50.35), P < 0.0001) in the group with priority pulmonary vein resection were significantly higher than those in the group with priority pulmonary vein resection. The difference was statistically significant. However, the benefits of OS (HR=1.34, 95%CI (1.12, 1.60), P=0.001) and DFS (HR=1.44, 95%CI(1.18, 1.76), P=0.0003) in the group of priority pulmonary vein transection were significantly better than those in the group of priority pulmonary artery transection, with statistically significant differences. Conclusion Priority pulmonary vein transection during thoracoscopic lobectomy effectively improved patients' OS and DFS, resulting in higher survival benefit for patients with non-small cell lung cancer, but intraoperative bleeding and operation time are more than those with priority pulmonary artery transection.

RESUMO
Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy and prognosis of robotic-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS )compared with traditional thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) in the treatment of thymoma.Methods:The clinical data of 128 patients with thymoma who underwent surgery in our hospital from January 2006 to November 2019 were retrospectively analyzed, There were 83 males and 45 females. The age ranged from 23 to 76 years old, with an average of (45.89±13.84) years old. The patients were divided into RATS group (58 cases) and VATS group (70 cases). Cox proportional risk model was used to analyze the factors affecting the postoperative hospital stay. Results:Compared with VATS group, RATS group patients had longer operation time[(128.61±32.13)min vs. (96.42±45.37)min, P=0.036], less intraoperative blood loss[(35.25±5.62)ml vs. (58.36±3.65)ml, P=0.016], less blood transfusion (1.72% vs. 7.14%, P=0.029), and less postoperative complications (17.2% vs. 22.9%, P=0.039). The average total hospitalization cost was higher [(56 721.18±98 457.24) yuan vs. (25 135.68±12 403.29) yuan, P<0.001], and the average postoperative hospitalization time was shorter[(4.15±1.51) days vs. (6.65±2.74)days, P<0.001], all with statistically significant differences. However, there was no statistical differences in conversion to thoracotomy, intraoperative complication, the surgical margin was positive, postoperative infectionpostoperative drainage amount, postoperative drainage time, expenses for medicine and anesthetic fee( P>0.05). Multiple linear regression models showed that different groups ( P=0.013), age ( P=0.025), combined with myasthenia gr avis( P=0.047), combined with underlying disease( P=0.016), intraoperative blood loss( P=0.034), conversion to thoracotomy ( P=0.024), postoperative infection( P=0.008), postoperative complications( P=0.026) and postoperative drainage time ( P=0.031) affected postoperative hospital stay. Conclusion:Robot-assisted thymectomy is a safe and effective method for the treatment of thymomas. RATS recover faster after surgery with fewer complications and shorter hospital stays than RATS after thoracoscopic surgery, but more large, high-quality studies are needed to evaluate the effectiveness of RATS.

RESUMO
Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is one of global public health problems, and predominantly results in severe hepatic diseases including hepatic cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. The traditional standard of care for chronic HCV is the combination of ribavirin and pegylated interferon, which is insufficient to cure the HCV infection due to the suboptimal sustained viral response and severe side effects. Recently new therapeutic approaches have been developed, including direct-acting antiviral agents (DAA) and host-targeting agents, which target essential proteins or host factors in HCV life cycle, such as NS3/4A protease, NS5B polymerase and NS5A protein. These agents exhibit high efficacy, improving safety and tolerability. Thus, the approval of the nucleotide polymerase inhibitor sofosbuvir provides a breakthrough therapy against chronic hepatitis C infection. This review describes the current different classes of HCV inhibitors during the last decades, and their chemical structures, mechanisms and related anti-viral property.
RESUMO
The strategies for automatic extraction of key words from medical news were put forward by adding the MeSH terms into the general classification table in combination with the length of MeSH terms and location-weigh-ted MeSH terms.The key words randomly selected from 100 papers reporting medical news on 10 Websites were in-dexed and verified by machine indexing.The extraction accuracy was 0.34 and the recall rate was 0.30, showing that the strategies can be used for automatic extraction of key words from medical news.
RESUMO

RESUMO
AIM To identify potential amino acid residues that contribute to different catalytic characteristics of CYP2A6 and CYP2A13 enzymes in nicotine metabolism. METHODSWild type of CYP2A6 and CYP2A13 and their mutants CYP2A6V117A, CYP2A6G164H, CYP2A6I208S, CYP2A6R372H, CYP2A6S465P and CYP2A13A117V, CYP2A13H164G, CYP2A13S208I, CYP2A13H372A and CYP2A13P465S, were subjected kinetic analysis in nicotine 5'-hydroxylation. RESULTS For CYP2A6, substitution of isoleucine 208 to serine caused dramatic kinetic property changes with K_m and V_( max) varied from 62.25 μmol·L~(-1) and 6.53 mol·min~(-1)·moL~(-1) to 345 μmol·L~(-1) and 2.19 mol·min~(-1)·moL~(-1). However, the corresponding serine 208 to isoleucine mutation did not heavily affect the enzyme activity in CYP2A13. The histidine 372 to arginine mutation resulted in a remarkable catalytic efficiency decrease with K_m and V_( max) changes from 26.01 μmol·L~(-1) and 24.51 mol·min~(-1)·moL~(-1) to 148.7 μmol·L~(-1) and 6.11 mol·min~(-1)·moL~(-1) in CYP2A13, but the switching of argenine 372 to histidine did not show expected corresponding crucial influence in CYP2A6 activity. Substitutions on the other positions changed enzyme activities in different rates. CONCLUSION The isoleucine 208 is crucial to human CYP2A6, while the 372 histidine is a key amino acid residue for CYP2A13 in nicotine 5'-hydroxylation.
