ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Whether the Western pT1acN0M0 gastric cancer (GC) patients who met the Japanese expanded criteria could be the candidates for endoscopic treatment (ET) remains unclear because of unknown long-term survival outcomes. METHODS: A retrospective cohort study using data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) program was performed. The survival differences between pT1acN0M0 gastric adenocarcinoma patients who received ET or gastrectomy treatment (GT) were evaluated using multivariate survival analysis. RESULTS: A total of 314 pT1acN0M0 gastric adenocarcinoma patients who met the expanded criteria were included, 46 patients received ET and 268 patients received GT. pT1acN0M0 gastric adenocarcinoma patients met the expanded criteria underwent ET experienced a similar hazard of cancer-specific death compared with those underwent GT both in the multivariate Cox survival analysis (adjusted hazard ratio [HR]; 1.18, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.40-3.49; P = 0.766) and the multivariate competing risk model (subdistribution HR [SHR], 1.12, 95% CI 0.38-3.29; P = 0.845). The result that pT1acN0M0 gastric adenocarcinoma patients met the expanded criteria underwent ET experienced comparable survival outcomes to those who underwent GT did not change even compared with those who underwent GT with > 15 lymph nodes examined (adjusted HR, 1.55, 95% CI 0.44-5.49; P = 0.499; SHR, 1.47, 95% CI 0.44-4.88; P = 0.532). CONCLUSIONS: The ET can be considered in Western pT1acN0M0 gastric adenocarcinoma patients who met the Japanese expanded criteria. However, a prospective study should be warranted.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Current guidelines recommend consideration of endoscopic therapy (ET) when treating selected early gastric cancers. However, clinical decision-making on ET versus gastrectomy for early adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction (AEGJ) remains challenging because of uncertain long-term outcomes. METHODS: We performed a retrospective cohort study using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database from 2004 to 2017 of early AEGJ patients underwent ET or gastrectomy. Multivariate models were used to compare cancer-specific survival (CSS). RESULTS: Of 881 included early AEGJ patients, 227 (36.2%) patients underwent ET and 654 (63.8%) patients underwent gastrectomy. Early AEGJ patients who underwent ET experienced a similar hazard of cancer-specific death compared with those underwent gastrectomy in both multivariate Cox regression (HR [hazard ratio], 0.93; 95% CI [confidence interval], 0.55-1.56; P = 0.78) and the multivariate competing risk model (subdistribution HR [SHR], 0.86; 95% CI 0.50-1.45; P = 0.56). Propensity score matching was used, 210 patients underwent ET were matched with 210 patients underwent gastrectomy. Patients underwent ET experienced a similar hazard of cancer-specific death compared with those underwent gastrectomy in both multivariate Cox regression (HR, 0.97; 95% CI 0.53-1.77; P = 0.92) and the multivariate competing risk model (SHR, 0.96; 95% CI 0.52-1.77; P = 0.89). CONCLUSION: Early AEGJ patients who received ET or gastrectomy had comparable long-term outcomes, which lend support to the role of ET in the treatment of these patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effect of different drainage methods on pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD).Methods:The data of all patients with PD in Xijing Hospital, the First Affiliated Hospital of the Fourth Military Medical University from January 2007 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. A total of 670 patients were enrolled, including 415 males and 255 females, aged (58.4±7.3) years, ranging from 24 to 82 years. According to the different method of pancreatic duct drainage, the propensity score was matched, and the patients were divided into internal drainage group ( n=529) and external drainage group ( n=141). The pancreatic fistula rate was compared between the two groups. Factors influencing pancreatic fistula after PD were analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression. Results:The incidence of pancreatic fistula in the internal drainage group was 12.5% (66/529), which was significantly higher than that in the external drainage group 6.4% (9/141) (χ 2= 4.16, P=0.041). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age ≥65 years ( OR=2.004, 95% CI: 1.185-3.390), complicated with digestive diseases ( OR=3.087, 95% CI: 1.599-5.959), history of upper abdominal surgery ( OR=2.031, 95% CI: 1.104-3.734) increased the risk of pancreatic fistula after PD (all P<0.05), decreased the risk of pancreatic fistula after PD in patients with external drainage ( OR=0.470, 95% CI: 0.223-0.989, P=0.047), and decreased the risk of pancreatic fistula after PD with the tumor size ( OR=0.725, 95% CI: 0.556-0.944, P=0.017), tumor located in the common bile duct after PD increased the risk of pancreatic fistula ( OR=1.497, 95% CI: 1.192-1.880, P=0.001). Conclusions:Compared with pancreatic duct drainage, external pancreatic duct drainage is better because of preventing postoperative pancreatic fistula.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Cyclin F (CCNF) dysfunction has been implicated in various forms of cancer, offering a new avenue for understanding the pathogenic mechanisms underlying hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We aimed to evaluate the role of CCNF in HCC using publicly available data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). METHOD: We used TCGA data and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) data to analyze the differential expression of CCNF between tumor and adjacent tissues and the relationship between CCNF and clinical characteristics. We compared prognosis of patients with HCC with high and low CCNF expression and constructed receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. In addition, we also explored the types of gene mutations in relevant groups and conducted Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA). RESULTS: The expression of CCNF in liver cancer tissues was significantly increased compared with that in adjacent tissues, and patients with high CCNF expression had a worse prognosis than those with low CCNF expression. Patients with high CCNF expression also had more somatic mutations. High expression of CCNF hampers the prognosis independently. The GSEA showed that the "http://www.gsea-msigdb.org/gsea/msigdb/cards/BIOCARTA_WNT_PATHWAY" Wnt pathway, "http://www.gsea-msigdb.org/gsea/msigdb/cards/BIOCARTA_P53_PATHWAY" P53 pathway, "http://www.gsea-msigdb.org/gsea/msigdb/cards/HALLMARK_PI3K_AKT_MTOR_SIGNALING" PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway, "http://www.gsea-msigdb.org/gsea/msigdb/cards/HALLMARK_NOTCH_SIGNALING" Notch pathway were enriched in patients with the high CCNF expression phenotype. CONCLUSION: High CCNF expression can be seen as an independent risk factor for poor survival in HCC. Its expression may serve as a target for the diagnosis and treatment of liver cancer.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Our aim was to evaluate the prognostic value of the number of lymph nodes examined (eLNs) on survival in ypN0 gastric cancer (GC) patients, and further to define the optimal number of lymph nodes needed to be examined during radical gastrectomy of ypN0 GC patients. METHODS: A total of 1127 ypN0 GC patients during 2004-2015 from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database were included. The number of eLNs cutoff points that determined the greatest actuarial survival difference was calculated by the X-tile program. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to assess the impact of eLNs on overall survival (OS). RESULTS: The optimal number of eLNs thresholds was determined to be 15 for ypN0 GC patients. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that ypN0 GC patients with ≥ 16 eLNs had a significantly better OS than those with ≤ 15 eLNs (5-year OS; 60.8 vs 45.4%, P < 0.001). Similarly, multivariate Cox analysis revealed that ypN0 GC patients with ≥ 16 eLNs experienced a significantly lower hazard of death than those with ≤ 15 eLNs (adjusted HR; 0.73, 95% CI, 0.60-0.90, P = 0.003). CONCLUSIONS: The number of eLNs was an independent predictor of survival for ypN0 GC patients. A minimum of 15 eLNs is recommended as the cutoff point for the evaluation of the quality of postoperative or prognostic stratification in ypN0 GC patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the therapeutic effect of skull drilling and/or grinding combined with artificial dermis and vacuum sealing drainage in repairing scalp defects with skull exposure.Methods:From October 2014 to May 2018, 18 patients with scalp defect and skull exposure were treated in the Department of Burn and Plastic Surgery, the Second Clinical College of North Sichuan Medical College, including 10 males and 8 females, with an average age of 64 years (range, 34-86 years). The patients were divided into two groups: group A (by drilling skull or/and grinding combined with artificial dermis cover and vacuum sealing drainage plus two split thickness skin graft repair) and group B (by drilling skull or/andgrinding combined with artificial dermis cover plus two covering leather grinding stage split thickness skin graft repair), 9 cases in each group. The head wound granulation tissue, postoperative complications, skin graft survival rate and wound healing time were compared between the two groups. Vancouver scar assessment scale (VSS) was used to evaluate the wound healing in the two groups.Results:The time of granulation cultivation in group A and group B was (16.44±1.42) days and (29.11±13.32) days, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05); The wound healing time of group A and group B was (26.00±3.32) days and (40.67±14.37) days, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05); The postoperative complications of group A and group B were 1 case and 5 cases respectively, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The skin graft survival rates of group A and group B were (97.11±3.44)% and (95.00±4.74)%, the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05); The wound scar VSS scores of group A and group B were (7.67±1.32) points and (8.78±1.99) points, the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Conclusions:By drilling skull and/or grinding combined with artificial dermis cover and vacuum sealing drainage and two stage split thickness skin graft for repairing scalp defect with skull exposure wound can not only better scalp defect with skull exposure wounds, and reduce the postoperative complications, and significantly accelerate wound healing, but also can effectively improve the quality of wound healing, which is worthy of clinical application.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the possibility of constructing tissue-engineered cartilage three-dimensional nanoscaffolds with collagen Ⅱ (COLⅡ), hyaluronic acid (HA) and chondroitin sulfate (CS).Methods:The tissue-engineered cartilage scaffolds were prepared by electrospinning techniques with the mixture COLⅡ-HA-CS solvent, which dissolved by 3-trifluoroethanol-water. The surface topography was observed under electron microscope (SEM). And the diameter of nanofibers, the water absorption rate, contact angle and degradation rate were also detected. Generation 2 rabbit chondrocytes were seeded into the scaffold. The cell survival rate and proliferation were evaluated by Cell Counting Kit-8.Results:When the concentration range of electrospinning was 80-120 mg/ml and the mixing ratio of Col, HA and CS was 6-8∶1∶1-2, the tissue engineered cartilage nanoscaffolds could be successfully prepared. Their diameters were mainly distributed between 126.5±23.3 nm and 374.7±14.1 nm. The scaffolds had satisfactory hydrophilicity and degradability. The chondrocytes could well adhere and proliferate on the scaffold.Conclusions:The COLⅡ-HA-CS tissue-engineered cartilage nanoscaffolds have good physical and biological properties, which suggests its promising application in tissue-engineered cartilage.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: The question that whether the criteria for endoscopic resection of early gastric non-cardia cancer (GNCC) is appropriate for early gastric cardia cancer (GCC) remains unclear. Thus, our aim was to evaluate the influence of tumor location on lymph node metastasis (LNM) and overall survival (OS) for early gastric cancer (GC). METHODS: A total of 5440 early GC patients in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database were identified. Multivariable analysis was performed to evaluate the influence of tumor location on LNM and OS for early GC. RESULTS: The rate of LNM was 17.48% for early GCC patients (232/1327) and 18.62% for early GNCC patients (766/4113). The early GCC patients experienced no significantly different risk of LNM compared with the early GNCC patients (adjusted OR 0.92, 95% CI 0.76-1.12, P = 0.405). The early GC patients were further stratified by node status. Tumor location was not a predictor of OS for node-negative early GC patients (adjusted HR 1.07, 95% CI 0.96-1.21, P = 0.225) but a predictor of OS for node-positive early GC patients (adjusted HR 1.80, 95% CI 1.48-2.20, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Tumor location was not a predictor of LNM for early GC patients. Moreover, tumor location was not a predictor of OS for node-negative early GC patients. Thus, the criteria for endoscopic resection of early GNCC might be appropriate for the treatment of early GCC.
