Methods The clinical data of one patient with pancreatic cancer on the 8th July, 2009 was retrospectively analyzed. The chief complaints included abdominal distension and vomiting. Results By exploratory surgery in time,the patient was diagnosed as pancreatic cancer and underwent the resection. Conclusion The onset of pancreatic cancer is very insidious,usually with a high misdiagnosis rate. How to make the right early diagnosis and to avoid misdiagnosis are the focal points of improving the prognosis.
As one of the crucial measures in the action plan for improving health services, day surgery is committed to efficiently integrating medical resources and improving the quality of medical services. Nowadays, public hospitals in China are vigorously promoting the day surgery cases. The normalization of day surgery is also one of the major goals for the Department of Gastroenterology to meet the current medical needs and explore sub-professional development in line with the discipline’s advantages. Taking the current status of day surgery in the Department of Gastroenterology of West China Hospital of Sichuan University as an example, this paper explores and constructs the “Huaxi Model of Day Surgery in the Department of Gastroenterology”, focusing on the management mode, operation process, operation implementation, quality and safety assurance of day surgery, so as to facilitate the exchange of experiences.
Coronary heart disease with gastrointestinal bleeding is common in clinical practice. The disease is dangerous and has a high mortality rate. This article will review the risk factors for coronary heart disease with gastrointestinal bleeding (including Helicobacter pylori infection, long-term use of antiplatelet drugs and combined anticoagulation drugs), blood transfusion strategies (including hemoglobin transfusion thresholds and platelet transfusion strategies), and the management of antithrombotic drugs after bleeding (including the management of antiplatelet drugs and the management of anticoagulation combined with antiplatelet drugs). The purpose is to provide a theoretical basis for the diagnosis and treatment of coronary heart disease with gastrointestinal bleeding.
Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of somatostatin and the analogue-octreotide in preventing post-ERCP pancreatitis. Methods We searched Cochrane Clinical Trial Register （Issue 1, April, 2004 ）, MEDLINE （1966- April, 2004）, EMBASE （1985- April, 2004）, CBM disc （1970- April, 2004） and The Clinical Trial Register of Chinese Evidence-Based Medicine Center and handsearched the related journals to identify Randomized Controlled Trials （RCT）of somatostatin and octreotide in post-endoscopic retrograde chnlangiopancreatography pancreatitis（PEP）prevention. Systematic review was conducted using the method recommended by The Cochrane Collaboration. Results Thirty-one trials involving 4 728 patients undergoing ERCP were included. Meta-analysis showed that the incidence of post-ERCP pancreatitis [ OR 0.33, 95% CI 0. 20 to 0. 54; P =0. 000 01 ; NNT =13] was significantly reduced by somatostatin. Octreotide could only reduce the incidence of hyperamylasemia [ OR 0. 54, 95% CI 0. 38 to 0. 77 ; P =0. 000 7 ]. The inci- dence of PEP, severe PEP and post-ERCP abdominal pain could not be reduced by octreotide. Conclusions Somatostatin can prevent post-ERCP pancreatitis. Four trials are of high quality in the 12 included studies and the results are consistent with the sensitive-analysis, so it is credible to some extent. However, existing evidence does not support that octreotide can reduce the incidence of PEP, so it is not recommended for this indication. Sensitive-analysis even showed that octreotide could increase the incidence of PEP. Therefore, whether it is necessary to carry out further clinical trials should be considered with caution.
Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of pancreatic duct stenting in prevention of post-ERCP (endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography) pancreatitis for patients at high risk. Methods We searched the Controlled Trials Database of the Cochrane Upper Gastro-Intestinal and Pancreatic Disease Group (Issue 1, 2004), Cochrane Controlled Trials Register (Issue 1, 2004), MEDLINE (1966-2004, 4), EMBASE (1985-2004, 4), CBMdisk (1970-2004, 4), and the Chinese Cochrane Center Database of Clinical Trials; we handsearched 8 Chinese journals, and references of eligible studies were also screened for inclusion. Randomized controlled trials on pancreatic stent for preventing post-endoscopic restrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis (PEP) were identified.The systematic review was conducted using methods recommended by the Cochrane Collaboration. Results Six trials involving 468 high-risk patients for post-ERCP pancreatitis were included. The incidence of post-ERCP pancreatitis was significantly reduced by pancreatic duct stenting (Peto RR 0.31, 95% CI 0.19 to 0.52; P＜0.000 01; NNT=6). The incidence of severe PEP was also significantly lower in pancreatic duct stenting group compared with the control group (Peto OR 0.13, 95% CI 0.04 to 0.47; P=0.002; NNT=24). The results were consistent with the sensitivity-analysis when abstracts were excluded. Conclusion Pancreatic duct stenting appears to be an effective method to prevent PEP. Due to the limitation of the included trials and their methodology, the results should be considered with caution. High quality and large-scale trials are required.
Colorectal cancer is one of the most common malignant diseases that threatens human being's health. With researches on microRNAs (miRNAs) getting deeper and wider, more evidences revealed that a great many of miRNAs have been involved in the development of colorectal cancer and have the potential to become the biomarker for early diagnosis, prediction of prognosis and recurrence of colorectal cancer. MiRNA-143/miRNA-145 are significantly reduced in several cancers, including colorectal cancer, showing an antitumorigenic activity. In the present article, we make a brief review on the advances in the researches on miRNA-143/miRNA-145 and colorectal cancer to provide guidance for further explorations of the mechanism and target therapy of this disease.
Objective To assess the effect of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for the prevention of colorectal neoplasia. Methods A systematic review of all relevant randomized controlled trials and quasi-randomized controlled trials of NSAIDs for prevention of colorectal neoplasms was performed by using The Cochrane Collaboration recommended methods. Results Nine trials were included and assessed. There was sufficient evidence for aspirin to prevent the development of colorectal adenomas compared with placebo in three trials of high quality and large sample size with relative risk (RR) 0.81, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.72 to 0.91 and P=0.000 5 . No adequate evidence supported aspirin in the prevention of development of colorectal cancer (RR 0.97, 95% CI 0.79 to 1.20, P= 0.79). However, there was no evidence to support sulindac and celecoxib curing or preventing colorectal adenomas or familial adenomatous polyposis (RR 0.71, 95% CI 0.49 to 1.03, P= 0.07 and RR 0.90, 95% CI 0.76 to 1.07, P=0.23). No evidence on the dose of NSAIDs was used for prevention of colorectal adenomas at present. No significant difference was seen in the number of adverse events between patients taking NSAIDs and those taking placebo (P=0.9). Conclusions Aspirin may prevent the development of colorectal adenomas and may avoid polypectomy for 1 in every 10 to 18 persons but we don’t know whether aspirin can be substituted for endoscopically removed colorectal polyps. However, the true clinical benefit for prevention of colorectal neoplasia of NSAIDs should be considered.
