A Priori Subcell Limiting Approach for the FR/CPR Method on Unstructured Meshes

A priori subcell limiting approach is developed for high-order flux reconstruction/correction procedure via reconstruction (FR/CPR) methods on two-dimensional unstructured quadrilateral meshes. Firstly, a modified indicator based on modal energy coefficients is proposed to detect troubled cells, where discontinuities exist. Then, troubled cells are decomposed into nonuniform subcells and each subcell has one solution point. A second-order finite difference shock-capturing scheme based on nonuniform nonlinear weighted (NNW) interpolation is constructed to perform the calculation on troubled cells while smooth cells are calculated by the CPR method. Numerical investigations show that the proposed subcell limiting strategy on unstructured quadrilateral meshes is robust in shock-capturing.     

Non-robotic minimally invasive gastrectomy as an independent risk factor for postoperative intra-abdominal infectious complications: A single-center,retrospective and propensity score-matched analysis

BACKGROUND Minimally invasive surgery for gastric cancer(GC) has gained widespread use as a safe curative procedure especially for early GC.AIM To determine risk factors for postoperative complications after minimally invasive gastrectomy for GC.METHODS Between January 2009 and June 2019, 1716 consecutive patients were referred to our division for primary GC. Among them, 1401 patients who were diagnosed with both clinical and pathological Stage Ⅲ or lower GC and underwent robotic gastrectomy(RG) or laparoscopic gastrectomy(LG) were enrolled. Retrospective chart review and multivariate analysis were performed for identifying risk factors for postoperative morbidity.RESULTS Morbidity following minimally invasive gastrectomy was observed in 7.5% of the patients. Multivariate analyses demonstrated that non-robotic minimally invasive surgery, male gender, and an operative time of ≥ 360 min were significant independent risk factors for morbidity. Therefore, morbidity was compared between RG and LG. Accordingly, propensity-matched cohort analysis revealed that the RG group had significantly fewer intra-abdominal infectious complications than the LG group(2.5% vs 5.9%, respectively; P = 0.038), while no significant differences were noted for other local or systemic complications.Multivariate analyses of the propensity-matched cohort revealed that non-robotic minimally invasive surgery [odds ratio = 2.463(1.070–5.682); P = 0.034] was a significant independent risk factor for intra-abdominal infectious complications.CONCLUSION The findings showed that robotic surgery might improve short-term outcomes following minimally invasive radical gastrectomy by reducing intra-abdominal infectious complications.     

漏斗胸Nuss矫形术对胸廓的影响及相关因素分析

目的通过CT影像测量了解漏斗胸Nuss矫形术前后胸廓径线的改变情况,探讨并分析Nuss矫形术对胸廓的影响及相关因素。方法对2014年1月至2018年12月郑州大学第一附属医院收治的50例行漏斗胸Nuss矫形术患儿的临床资料进行回顾性分析。50例患儿中男43例,女7例。所有患儿中存在脊柱侧弯6例,胸廓不对称12例,胸骨旋转11例。通过CT影像测量其放置矫形器前及取出矫形器后胸廓各椎体平面最大横内径及该平面胸脊间的距离,通过配对样本t检验比较矫形前后各径线的改变情况,以及通过独立样本t检验分析在不同年龄、性别、矫形时间、漏斗胸对称与否、是否合并脊柱侧弯等情况间的差异性。结果50例患儿均顺利完成矫形器置入术及矫形器拔除术,无明显术中及术后并发症,Nuss矫形后较矫形前相比,胸廓前后径在第8~12胸椎水平均较前增加,第3~5胸椎平面较前减小,胸廓横径在第8~10胸椎平面较前减小;年龄≤10岁、矫形时长≥2年及女性患儿胸廓前后径改变量在多个胸椎平面分别较年龄>10岁、矫形时长<2年及男性患儿大,P<0.05,差异具有统计学意义。结论漏斗胸Nuss矫形后前胸壁凹陷较前明显改善,并且在不同年龄和不同矫形时长间存在差异性,年龄较小及适当增加矫形时间可获得较好的矫形效果,而胸廓横径生长在一定程度上受限。     

LEEP术对绝经后妇女高级别宫颈上皮内瘤变的诊治

目的:探讨绝经后妇女高级别宫颈上皮内瘤变行宫颈环形电切术(LEEP)诊治的临床价值。方法:选择2017年2月-2018年12月于北京妇产医院妇科微创中心因宫颈高级别鳞状上皮内病变(HSIL)行LEEP术的患者共142例,其中绝经组40例,未绝经组102例。收集2组患者的液基薄层细胞学检查(TCT)、高危型人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)检测、阴道镜检查及其活检病理结果、LEEP术后病理结果、切缘病变情况,并将上述检查结果进行组间比较。结果:2组患者阴道镜下宫颈转化区类型比较,差异有统计学意义(χ~2=28.658,P=0.000)。绝经组阴道镜活检与LEEP术后病理符合率为50.00%(20/40),未绝经组符合率为51.96%(53/102),2组差异无统计学意义(χ~2=0.044,P=0.854)。绝经组1例LEEP术后病理升级为宫颈癌,未绝经组1例LEEP术后病理升级为原位腺癌。绝经组术后病理切缘阳性8例(20.00%),未绝经组术后病理切缘阳性16例(15.69%),2组比较差异无统计学意义(χ~2=0.381,P=0.537)。2组患者术后TCT检查比较及高危型HPV感染情况比较,差异均无统计学意义(均P>0.05)。结论:LEEP手术适用于宫颈无明显萎缩的绝经后妇女高级别宫颈上皮内瘤变的诊治,以避免对宫颈病变的漏诊和过度治疗。     

Gastro-oesophageal reflux in children: surgical management

Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) is symptomatic reflux of gastric contents into the oesophagus. Factors predisposing to GORD are loss of the physiological antireflux barrier and anatomic abnormalities of the oesophagus or diaphragm. Conservative measures and medical management results in resolution of symptoms in a majority of children. Surgery is indicated in the event of failure of medical management or severe complications. Surgical procedures include open or laparoscopic fundoplication in children with normal neurology; fundoplication with or without vagotomy and pyloroplasty; surgical feeding jejunostomy and oesophago-gastric dissociation in the severely neurologically impaired children.     

Ross手术的临床应用现状

Ross手术自1967年应用于临床以来，已被用于各种原因引起的主动脉瓣狭窄、左心室流出道梗阻和二尖瓣病变。Ross手术经历了诸如根部置换、圆筒形包埋技术、瓣环缩小技术、Ross—Konno手术和自体肺动脉瓣二尖瓣置换术（Ross—Kabbani手术或RossⅡ手术）。由于自体肺动脉瓣有不需抗凝、大小适宜、能存活、生长和长期耐久的特性，并具有良好的血流动力学表现和对细菌性心内膜炎有抵抗力的优点，尤其适用于妊娠期妇女、儿童和青少年。现就Ross手术的外科技术、手术指征、选择标准、外科处理主动脉瓣狭窄、左心室流出道梗阻和二尖瓣病变的临床应用进展和效果进行综述。
