The value of LCI-based modified Kyoto classification risk scoring system in predicting the risk of early gastric cancer.

OBJECTIVE: To study and compare the value of the Kyoto classification risk scoring system and the modified Kyoto classification risk scoring system based on linked color imaging (LCI) in predicting the risk of early gastric cancer. METHODS: One hundred and fifty patients with pathologically confirmed non-cardia early gastric cancer by endoscopic LCI and 150 non-gastric cancer patients matched for age and gender were included. Basic patient data and whole gastric endoscopic images under LCI were collected, and the images were scored according to the LCI-based Kyoto classification risk scoring system and the LCI-based modified Kyoto classification risk scoring system. RESULTS: Compared with the LCI-based Kyoto classification risk scoring system, the LCI-based modified Kyoto classification risk scoring system had a higher AUC for predicting the risk of early gastric cancer (0.723 vs. 0.784, p = 0.023), with a score of ≥3 being the best cutoff value for predicting the risk of early gastric cancer (sensitivity 61.33%, specificity 86.00%), and scores of 3 to 5 were significantly associated with early gastric carcinogenesis significantly (OR = 9.032, 95% CI: 4.995-16.330, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Compared with the LCI-based Kyoto classification risk scoring system, the LCI-based Kyoto modified classification risk scoring system has a better value for predicting the risk of early gastric cancer, and the score of 3 to 5 is a high-risk factor for the risk of early gastric cancer development, which is more strongly correlated with the risk of early gastric cancer.

Effects of light music played by piano intervention on satisfaction, anxiety, and pain in patients undergoing colonoscopy: A randomized controlled trial.

BACKGROUND: Colonoscopy is the main kind of way to detect and treat diseases about large intestine, but during the examination and preparation, these 2 processes are able to lead abdominal pain, abdominal distention and other discomfort feel, which will cause patients to refuse the examination and become anxious. Painless and sedative endoscopy may reduce discomfort of patients, but there is a risk of adverse effects. Many studies have shown that playing music during colonoscopy can reduce discomfort and increase acceptance of colonoscopy, but the conclusion remains controversial. The 3 approaches of random, single-blind, controlled method were used to investigate the interventions effects of piano light music on satisfaction, anxiety and pain in patients undergoing colonoscopy. METHODS: A total of 216 patients were randomly divided into piano music group (n = 112, piano music played during colonoscopy) and control group (n = 104, no music during colonoscopy) to compare patients satisfaction, anxiety score, pain score, vital signs, endoscopic difficulty score, and willingness to undergo colonoscopy again. RESULTS: There were no significant differences in vital signs, pre-colonoscopic state anxiety score, and trait anxiety score before and after colonoscopy, and willingness to undergo colonoscopy again between the 2 groups (P > .05). The difficulty of colonoscopy operation and the score of state anxiety after colonoscopy in the piano group were lower than those in the control group (P < .05), and the satisfaction of colonoscopy process, pain management and overall service satisfaction were better than those of the control group (P < .05), and they were more likely to listen to music in the next examination (P < .001). CONCLUSION: The light music played by piano can relieve patients' anxiety, improve the satisfaction of colonoscopy process, pain management and service satisfaction, reduce the difficulty of colonoscopy, which have no obvious adverse reactions. Therefore, it is worthy of promotion.
