    Objective To observe and compare the clinical effi cacy of open surgery with laparoscopic surgery in the treatment of non-traumatic perforation of stomach and small intestine. Method The clinical data of patients with upper digestive tract perforation admitted to Kunshan Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital Affi liate to Nan-jing University of Chinese Medicine from February 2016 to March 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 53 cases underwent laparoscopic surgery and 46 cases underwent open surgery. The perioperative indicators of the two groups, such as gender, age, body mass index, operation time, anal exhaust time, length of stay, postop-erative infl ammation, nutritional status and surgery complications were compared and analyzed. Result There was no signifi cant diff erence in preoperative basic data such as age and gender between the two groups (P > 0.05). Compared with the open group, the operation time of the laparoscopic group was shorter [(55.5±21.6) min vs.

    (76.1±47.2)min, P < 0.005]. postoperative anal exhaust time was early [(3.4±1.2)d vs. (5.4±1.0)d, P < 0.001], abdominal drainage tube placement time was short [(5.8±1.2)d vs. (7.9±1.7)d, P < 0.001]. the hospital stay was shorter [(9.9±2.3)d vs. (13.4±4.8)d, P < 0.001], and the total cost was lower [(1.58±0.50)ten thousand yuan vs. (2.54±1.58)ten thousand yuan, P < 0.001]. In addition, the laparoscopic group had better infl ammation and nutritional indexes three days after surgery(P < 0.05), and there was no signifi cant diff erence in the incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion Under the condition of the indications of laparoscopic surgery, laparoscopic surgery has signifi cant clinical eff ect, less surgical trauma, and faster postop-erative recovery, which is worthy of clinical application.

    Objective To analyze and compare the eff ects of single port laparoscopic cholecystectomy, triple port laparoscopic cholecystectomy, and open cholecystectomy in patients with cholecystitis and gallstones. Method A total of 93 patients with cholecystitis and gallstones who were treated in Yixing Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital from January 2022 to January 2024 were selected and included in the study. They were divided into three groups according to diff erent surgical forms, corresponding to open surgery group (31 cas-es), three port laparoscopic group (31 cases), and single port laparoscopic group (31 cases), and each group was treated with open cholecystectomy, three port laparoscopic cholecystectomy, and single port laparoscopic cholecys-tectomy. The perioperative indicators, stress response indicators, gastrointestinal function, and aesthetic degree were compared among the three groups. Result The surgical time and incision length of the three port endoscopy groupand the single port endoscopy group were lower than those of the open surgery group, and the intraoperative blood loss was lower than that of the open surgery group, with signifi cant diff erences (P < 0.05); The levels of C-reactive protein, cortisol, and norepinephrine in the three port endoscopic group and the single port endoscopic group were all higher than those in the open surgery group, and the single port endoscopic group had signifi cantly higher levels of these three indicators than the three port endoscopic group (P < 0.05); The gastric emptying rate, number of gastric antral contractions, and number of gastric body peristalsis in the three port endoscopic group and the single port endoscopic group were all higher than those in the open surgery group, and the above three indicators were all higher in the single port endoscopic group than in the three port endoscopic group (P < 0.05); The postoperative aesthetic degree of the single hole endoscopic group was better than that of the three hole endoscopic group and the open surgery group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Although small incision cholecystectomy and laparoscopic cholecys-tectomy have similar therapeutic eff ects, both can eff ectively treat cholecystitis with gallstones. However, compared to small incision cholecystectomy, laparoscopic cholecystectomy brings less trauma and better postoperative re-covery. Among them, the advantage of the single hole endoscopic group is more obvious, and not only does it have better postoperative recovery, but it also has higher aesthetic appeal.

    Objective To explore the relationship between therapy and survival of hepatocellular carcinoma bone metastasis(HCC-BM) patients, and analyze the factors aff ecting the survival of HCC-BM patients. Method The clinical data of HCC-BM patients admitted to Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2019 to January 2023 were retrospectively analyzed, the Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the median survival time and draw the survival curve. Log-Rank test was used for comparison between groups with or without primary tumor treatment, with or without bone metastasis treatment, and various treatment regimens for primary tumor. Factors that may affect the survival of patients such as gender, age, alpha-fetoprotein were included in the Cox regression model for univariate regression analysis, and signifi cant variables were included in the multivariate Cox regression model to identify the independent risk factors aff ecting the survival of HCC-BM patients. Result A total of 81 HCC-BM patients were enrolled, the median interval of HCC-BM patients was 10.5 months, the median survival time was 7.3 months, and the 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates were 37.0%, 17.3%, and 6.2%, respectively. Log-Rank test showed that there were statistically signifi cant diff erences in survival time between HCC-BM patients with or without primary tumor treatment, monotherapy or combination therapy and HCC-BM patients without primary tumor treatment, and bone metastasis treatment or not (all P < 0.05). Univariate regression analysis showed that alpha-fetoprotein and alkaline phosphatase levels, vascular invasion, Child-Pugh score, number of bone metastases, systemic multiple bone metastases, treatment of the primary tumor, treatment of bone metastases, and targeted combined immunotherapy were associated with the prognosis of HCC-BM patients (all P < 0.05). Multivariate regression analysis showed that alpha-fetoprotein ≥ 400μg/L, systemic multiple bone metastases, no primary tumor treatment, and no targeted combined immunotherapy were independent risk factors for poor prognosis of HCC-BM patients (all P < 0.05). Conclusion The morbidity of HCC-BM is high, and the interval and survival time of HCC-BM are short. Treatment of bone metastases can prolong the survival of HCC- BM patients. Combined therapy targeting the primary lesion significantly improves survival outcomes in HCC- BM patients, which is expected to become a better choice for HCC-BM treatment. Alpha-fetoprotein ≥ 400μg/L, systemic multiple bone metastases, no primary tumor treatment, and no targeted therapy combined immunotherapy are independent risk factors for poor prognosis of HCC-BM patients.

    Objective Exploring the effect of using five-tiered nutritional intervention in perioperative chemotherapy patients with gastrointestinal tumors. Method 88 patients with perioperative chemotherapy gastrointestinal tumors admitted to the Brain Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from February 2021 to February 2024 were selected. They were randomly divided into a reference group and a study group, with 44 cases in each group, using a random number table method. The reference group patients received routine dietary intervention, while the study group implemented fi ve-tiered nutritional intervention. The nutritional status, immune function indicators, tumor marker levels, improvement in nutritional levels, and bone marrow suppression results of the two groups of patients were observed before and after intervention. Result Before intervention, there was no signifi cant diff erence in nutritional related biochemical indicators, immune function indicators, tumor marker levels, and nutritional levels between the two groups of patients (P > 0.05). After intervention, the nutritional related biochemical indicators, immune function indicators, tumor marker levels, and nutritional levels of the two groups of patients were signifi cantly improved (P < 0.05). In addition, the levels of albumin, hemoglobin, transferrin, and prealbumin, CD3+, CD4+ T lymphocytes, IgM, IgA, and IgG in the study group were higher than those in the control group, and the PG-SGA score, CEA, and CA19-9 levels were lower than those in the control group, with signifi cant diff erences (P < 0.05). After intervention, there was no signifi cant diff erence in the incidence of platelet and hemoglobin inhibition between the two groups of patients (P > 0.05), but the incidence of white blood cell and granulocyte inhibition in the study group was lower than that in the control group, with a signifi cant diff erence (P > 0.05). Conclusion Gastrointestinal tumor chemotherapy patients can be intervened with a fi ve-tiered nutritional guidance program during the perioperative period, which not only improves the patient’s nutritional level, but also improves their immune function, reduces the level of tumor markers, enhances anti-tumor ability, reduces bone marrow suppression, and alleviates chemotherapy adverse reactions during the perioperative period. It has a good nutritional intervention eff ect.

    Objective A prognostic model for pancreatic cancer(PC) based on cuproptosis-related long noncoding RNA (CRL) was constructed to predict the traditional Chinese medicine that regulates cuproptosis- related gene(CRG). Method A risk model for forecasting PC prognosis was constructed by utilizing Cox regression and Pearson correlation analysis, utilizing clinical data and RNA-seqs of 183 PC patients sourced from theTCGA. Screening CRL through LASSO regression, and the nomogram was formed by uniting the risk score and clinical features. To test the model's accuracy, receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC) and C-index were employed. An assessment was made of the correlation between risk scores and immunoinfi ltration and chemotherapy/targeted agents. The potential Chinese medicines for controlling CRG were predicted through the utilization of Coremine Medical database. Result The PC risk model was developed based on the risk scores of six CRLs (MIR1915HG, PRECSIT, AC004982.1, AC023043.4, AC010999.2, FOXCUT).The AUC for forecasting 1-year, 3-year and 5-year survival rates in PC patients was 0.782, 0.786 and 0.912 respectively, as revealed by the risk model, surpassing age, grade and TNM stage. A relationship was found between the risk score and the enrichment of tumor-infi ltrating lymphocytes, the presence of regulatory T cells, and the sensitivity of fourteen chemotherapeutic/targeted drugs. There are ninety-eight Chinese medicines that potentially regulate CRG; their eff ects primarily involve heat clearing and detoxifying properties attributed mainly to liver spleen and lung meridians. Traditional Chinese medicine Tenacissoside may have potential regulatory effects on key gene FDX1 involved in copper death mechanism. Conclusion A risk signature constructed based on six CRLs could assess the prognosis and immunity of PC, and Tenacissoside may have important regulatory effi cacy on the mechanism of coppercuproptosis.

Compare the surgical related indicators, pain level, stress response, and quality of life between two groups of patients. Result The surgical time, incision length, hospitalization time, and postoperative bed rest time of patients in the EVLA group were shorter than those in the SEPS group, and the intraoperative blood loss was less than that in the SEPS group, with significant differences (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups of patients (P > 0.05). At 3, 12, 24, and 48 hours postoperatively, the NRS scores of patients in the EVLA group were signifi cantly lower than those in the SEPS group (P < 0.05). Before surgery, there was no signifi cant diff erence in cortisol and adrenaline levels between the two groups of patients (P > 0.05). Two days after surgery, the levels of cortisol and adrenaline in both groups of patients increased compared to preoperative levels, and the cortisol and adrenaline levels in the EVLA group were lower than those in the SEPS group, with signifi cant diff erences (P < 0.05). Before surgery, there was no signifi cant diff erence in CIVIQ scores between the two groups of patients (P > 0.05). Three months after surgery, the CIVIQ scores of both groups of patients increased compared to preoperative levels. The CIVIQ score of the EVLA group was higher than that of the SEPS group, and the diff erence was signifi cant (P < 0.05). Conclusion For patients with lower limb varicose veins accompanied by pathological perforating dysfunction, EVLA and SEPS have similar eff ects in reducing the incidence of complications. However, EVLA can shorten the recovery time of patients, reduce stress reactions and body pain, and improve their quality of life.

    Objective To explore the clinical effi cacy of using circular areola and radial incision treatment for benign breast tumors. Method Fifty patients with benign breast tumors admitted to our hospital from September 2019 to January 2024 were divided into two groups using a random number table method, with 25 cases in each group. The research group underwent circumareolar incision surgery, while the control group underwent radial incision surgery. Compare the clinical efficacy, perioperative indicators, breast aesthetics score, sensory nerve function in the areola area, and complications between two groups. Result Compared with the control group, the study group had a higher overall treatment effi cacy, shorter surgical scar length, longer surgical time, more bleeding, higher satisfaction with breast aesthetics, better postoperative recovery of sensory nerve function in the areola area,

    and lower incidence of complications, with signifi cant diff erences (P < 0.05). Conclusion Both types of incision surgery can eff ectively treat benign breast tumors. However, patients undergoing circumareolar incision surgery have smaller residual scars on the body surface, resulting in better treatment outcomes. Additionally, postoperative patients have a higher satisfaction with breast aesthetics and will not aff ect the sensory nerve function in the areola area. With fewer complications, it is safe and reliable.

    Objective To investigate the eff ects of laparoscopic cholecystectomy on the levels of infl ammatory factors, pain scores, and incidence of complications in patients with acute cholecystitis caused by stones. Method Eighty patients with acute calculous cholecystitis who visited Shantou Chaonan Minsheng Hospital from June 2023 to June 2024 were randomly divided into a control group (small incision cholecystectomy) and a study group (laparoscopic cholecystectomy) using a random number table, with 40 patients in each group. Compare the levels of infl ammatory factors, pain scores, oxidative stress indicators, and incidence of complications between two groups. Result Before surgery, there was no signifi cant diff erence in the levels of interleukin-6, interleukin-8, C-reactive protein, tumor necrosis factor - α, as well as serum malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels between the two groups of patients (P > 0.05). After surgery, the levels of interleukin-6, interleukin-8, C-reactive protein, tumor necrosis factor - α, and serum MDA in the study group were lower than those in the control group, but the level of SOD was higher than that in the control group, and the diff erences were signifi cant (P < 0.05). At 12 hours, 1 day, and 3 days after surgery, the pain scores of patients in the study group were signifi cantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The total incidence of postoperative complications in the study group (3.33%) was lower than that in the control group (13.33%), and the diff erence was signifi cant (P < 0.05). Conclusion Laparoscopic cholecystectomy for the treatment of acute calculous cholecystitis can inhibit the body's inflammatory response and postoperative pain, reduce surgical stress response, and lower the risk of complications.

    With the global prevalence of metabolic diseases increasing year by year, metabolism related non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become the most common chronic liver disease. NAFLD disease spectrum included initial liver steatosis, advanced non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In NASH stage, lipotoxicity and inflammatory damage of hepatocytes greatly increase the risk of end-stage liver disease. So far, there have been more than 1400 clinical trials for the treatment of Nash worldwide, but no specifi c drugs have been approved with no eff ective treatment for NASH related HCC. Even for emerging immunotherapy, NASH related HCC also showed signifi cant resistance to immunotherapy. The changes of immune microenvironment mediated by innate and adaptive immune cell subsets play an important role in the onset and progression of NASH. Thi s review focuses on the mechanism of a variety of immune cells in NASH and the research status of related immunotherapy, in order to provide reference for understanding the immune microenvironment of NASH and exploring new research directions.
