目的 探讨肠系膜上动脉压迫综合征的诊断和治疗方法。方法 对笔者所在医院2003年8月至2010年8月期间收治的16例肠系膜上动脉压迫综合征患者的临床资料进行回顾性分析。结果 16例肠系膜上动脉压迫综合征患者的临床表现主要为反复发作性进食后上腹部胀痛或隐痛、呕吐且呕吐后症状可缓解(12例),恶心、反酸及嗳气(13例),饭后饱胀感或腹胀(16例),以及食欲不振(13例)。16例患者均行上消化道造影检查明确诊断;3例行腹部彩色多普勒超声检查符合诊断;4例行CT检查排除十二指肠周围占位性病变。16例患者均先行非手术治疗,其中10例患者的腹痛缓解,呕吐消失,好转出院;另6例因治疗无效而行手术治疗,其中行Treitz韧带松解加十二指肠空肠侧侧吻合术2例,行十二指肠空肠Roux-en-Y吻合术3例,行胃大部分切除、胃空肠吻合术(BillrothⅡ式)1例。术后除1例行Treitz韧带松解加十二指肠空肠侧侧吻合术的患者仍有间断腹胀伴恶心外,其余患者均痊愈。结论 肠系膜上动脉压迫综合征主要表现为上腹部胀痛、呕吐、食欲不振及消瘦,确诊依赖于上消化道造影。对其治疗首选非手术治疗,对非手术治疗无效者可采用手术治疗,其中十二指肠空肠Roux-en-Y吻合术是一种有效、易行的手术方式。
Objective To analyze the early effectiveness of unilateral biportal endoscopy (UBE) laminectomy in the treatment of two-level lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS). Methods The clinical data of 98 patients with two-level LSS treated with UBE between September 2020 and December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 53 males and 45 females with an average age of 59.9 years (range, 32-79 years). Among them, there were 56 cases of mixed spinal stenosis, 23 cases of central spinal canal stenosis, and 19 cases of nerve root canal stenosis. The duration of symptoms was 1.5- 10 years, with an average of 5.4 years. The operative segments were L2, 3 and L3, 4 in 2 cases, L3, 4 and L4, 5 in 29 cases, L4, 5 and L5, S1 in 67 cases. All patients had different degrees of low back pain, among of which 76 cases were with unilateral lower extremity symptoms and 22 cases were with bilateral lower extremity symptoms. There were 29 cases of bilateral decompression in both segments, 63 cases of unilateral decompression in both segments, and 6 cases of unilateral decompression and bilateral decompression of each segment. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, total incision length, hospitalization stay, ambulation time, and related complications were recorded. Visual analogue scale (VAS) score was used to assess the low back and leg pain before operation and at 3 days, 3 months after operation, and at last follow-up. The Oswestry disability index (ODI) was used to evaluate the functional recovery of lumbar spine before operation and at 3 months and last follow-up after operation. Modified MacNab criteria was used to evaluate clinical outcomes at last follow-up. Imaging examinations were performed before and after operation to measure the preservation rate of articular process, modified Pfirrmann scale, disc height (DH), lumbar lordosis angle (LLA), and cross-sectional area of the canal (CAC), and the CAC improvement rate was calculated. Results All patients underwent surgery successfully. The operation time was (106.7±25.1) minutes, the intraoperative blood loss was (67.7±14.2) mL, and the total incision length was (3.2±0.4) cm. The hospitalization stay was 8 (7, 9) days, and the ambulation time was 3 (3, 4) days. All the wounds healed by first intention. Dural tear occurred in 1 case during operation, and mild headache occurred in 1 case after operation. All patients were followed up 13-28 months with an average of 19.3 months, and there was no recurrence or reoperation during the follow-up. At last follow-up, the preservation rate of articular process was 84.7%±7.3%. The modified Pfirrmann scale and DH were significantly different from those before operation (P<0.05), while the LLA was not significantly different from that before operation (P=0.050). The CAC significantly improved (P<0.05), and the CAC improvement rate was 108.1%±17.8%. The VAS scores of low back pain and leg pain and ODI at each time point after operation significantly improved when compared with those before operation, and the differences between each time points were significant (P<0.05). According to the modified MacNab criteria, 63 cases were excellent, 25 cases were good, and 10 cases were fair, with an excellent and good rate of 89.8%. ConclusionUBE laminectomy is a safe and effective technique with little trauma and fast recovery for two-level LSS and the early effectiveness is satisfactory.
Objective To explore the effect and mechanism of sleeve gastrectomy (SG) for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rats. Methods Thirteen male GK rats at 12 weeks of age were randomly divided into SG group (n=7) and sham operation group (SO group, n=6), receiving SG surgery and sham operation respectively.Body weight, food intake in 24hours, fasting plasma glucose, plasma glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), and plasma Ghrelin of rats in 2 groups were measured or tested before operation, 1, 4, 10, and 26 weeks after operation. In 10 weeks after operation, fecal energy content of rats in 2 groups was tested, in addition, oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and insulin tolerance test (ITT) were performed to investigate the glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity. Results ①Body weight:there were no significant difference on body weight between the 2 groups (P>0.05). Compared with time point of before operation, the body weight of both 2 groups decreased in 1 week after operation (P<0.01), but increased in 10 weeks and 26 weeks (P<0.01). ②Food intake in 24 hours:compared with SO group, the food intake of SG group were lower in 4 weeks and 10 weeks after operation (P<0.05). Compared with time point of before operation, the food intake of SG group were lower in 1, 4, and 10 weeks after operation (P<0.05), but lower only in 1 week in SO group (P<0.05). ③Value of fasting glucose:compared with SO group, the value of fasting glucose in SG group were lower after operation (P<0.01). Compared with time point of before operation, the value of fasting glucose of SG group were lower after operation (P<0.01), but decreased in 1 week only in SO group (P<0.01). ④Level of serum GLP-1:compared with SO group, the levels of serum GLP-1 in SG group were higher in 4, 10, and 26 weeks after operation (P<0.05). Compared with time point of before operation, the levels of serum GLP-1 in SG group were higher in 4, 10, and 26 weeks after operation (P<0.05), but levels of serum GLP-1 in SO group didn’t change significantly (P>0.05). ⑤Level of serum Ghrelin:compared with SO group, the levels of serum Ghrelin in SG group were lower at alltime points after operation (P<0.01). Compared with time point of before operation, the levels of serum Ghrelin in SGgroup were lower at all time points after operation (P<0.001), but levels of serum Ghrelin in SO group didn’t change significantly (P>0.05). ⑥Areas under curves (AUC):the AUC of OGTT and ITT test in SG group were both lower than those of SO group (P<0.01). Conclusion SG surgery can induce the level of fasting plasma glucose, and canimprove glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity with significant changes of levels of plasma GLP-1 and Ghrelin, sugg-esting that SG surgery may be a potential strategy to treat patient with T2DM but without obesity or insulin resistance.
ObjectiveTo build a lentiviral expression vector regulated by two targets 5 copies of HREs and hTERTp, express the target gene CDX2, and to test the activity of hTERT promoter by using LoVo cells for transfection. MethodsAfter the primer sets were designed, the hTERT promoter was cloned by PCR amplification from the genome of colon cancer. The CEA promoter was removed from the original vector pLEGFP-5HRE-CEAp by double digestion and PCR method, and then the hTERTp was introduced into the vector to construct the recombinant plasmid pLEGFP-5HRE-hTERTp. 5HRE-hTERTp was obtained by PCR, while the CMV promoter was removed from the original vector pLVX-EGFP-3FLAG by double digestion and PCR method, and then the 5HRE-hTERTp was introduced into the vector to construct the recombinant plasmid pLVX-5HRE-hTERTp-EGFP-3FLAG. The CDX2 was cloned by PCR amplification from GV230-CDX2-EGFP, and the EGFP was removed from the vector pLVX-5HRE-hTERTp-EGFP-3FLAG by double digestion, and then the CDX2 was introduced into the vector to construct the recombinant plasmid pLVX-5HRE-hTERTp-CDX2-3FLAG. LoVo cells ex vivo was transiently transfected by pLVX-5HRE-hTERTp-EGFP-3FLAG to evaluate the activity of hTERTp by detecting the expression of green fluorescence protein EGFP. ResultsPCR and sequencing analyzing showed that pLEGFP-5HRE-hTERTp, pLVX-5HRE-hTERTp-EGFP-3FLAG, and pLVX-5HRE-hTERTp-CDX2-3FLAG were sequenced correctly and the same as our designed. pLVX-5HRE-hTERTp-EGFP-3FLAG was successfully transfected into LoVo cells ex vivo and expressed green fluorescence protein EGFP, which showed that hTERTp was activated and promoted the expression of downstream gene. ConclusionThe lentiviral expression vector, pLVX-5HREhTERTp-EGFP-3FLAG and pLVX-5HRE-hTERTp-CDX2-3FLAG are successfully constructed, which lays the foundation of further research. But the function of dual-target regulation needs further proof.
