ObjectiveTo analyze the follow-up data of colorectal cancer in the Database from Colorectal Cancer (DACCA).MethodsThe information in the Dacca database was screened, and the one whose operative date and follow-up date were not blank in the total data was selected. The follow-up data were analyzed, including length of follow-up, survival outcomes, coping styles (doctors’ attitude and reaction for follow-up), follow-up path (whether to choose out-patient, Wechat, QQ tools, phone call, text message, mobile application, face-to-face), the number of follow-up (the number of out-patient follow-up, the number of telephone follow-up, and the number of follow-up within 5 years).ResultsA total of 6 437 data items were analyzed for colorectal cancer adjuvant follow-up. ① The follow-up period of five years (2004–2015) was 56.6% (3 642/6 437), and the follow-up time was 0–201, 67 (26, 97) months. ② The highest data composition ratio of survival outcomes was “Survival” (79.7%, 4 611/5 787), and in the data with five-year follow-up period (2004–2015), the highest data composition ratio of survival outcomes was “Survival” (75.0%, 2 550/3 401), and the survival rate of the five-year follow-up period in 2008 was the highest (91.4%, 235/257). ③ The highest data composition ratio of the coping styles was the doctors’ active follow-up (76.8%, 2 121/2 762). ④ The highest data composition ratio of the follow-up path was out-patient service (90.6%, 4 236/4 676). ⑤ The highest data composition ratio of the number of out-patient follow-up was conducted by the original surgical team (100%, 4 380/4 380), the specific number was 0–130、5 (2, 10) times. The data composition ratio of telephone follow-up was 86.9% (3 808/4 380) and the specific number was 0–68、0 (0, 1) times. The highest frequency of follow-up was in the first year (89.9%, 3 044/3 386) and the specific number was 0–73、5 (3, 9) times.ConclusionBy expounding the characteristics of the colorectal cancer follow-up from colorectal cancer in DACCA, it provides some references for using big data to determine prognosis.
Objective To present early follow-up results of surgical closure of ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm (RSVA). Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 32 patients with RSVA or combined with RSVA in our hospital between January 2010 and December 2014. There were 20 males, 12 females aged 37.6±11.2 years. All the patients were surgically corrected under cardiopulmonary bypass. Results The mean cardiopulmonary bypass time was 79±18 min and the mean aortic cross-clamp time was 53±9 min. Except that 1 patient had the first degree A-V block and 2 patients with delayed wound healing, there was no other complication in the early postoperative period. One patient with surgically corrected RSVA was with infective endocarditis after 3 months follow-up. Most patients were with better New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classⅠor Ⅱat the end of the follow-up. Conclusion Surgical closure of RSVA is a safe and effective alternative to surgery with early follow-up results.

Results The results showed that all of the 25 amblyopic children were cured. The treatment duration was from three months to 50 months with an average of 24 months. Conclusion As long as the amblyopia is detected at the early stage and treated before age 12, all the children can be cured.
Objective To investigate the perioperative clinical effects and follow-up results of minimally invasive coronary artery bypass grafting (MICS CABG) versus conventional coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in thoracotomy. Methods The patients who received off-pump CABG in Beijing Anzhen Hospital from January 2017 to October 2021 were collected. Among them, the patients receiving MICS CABG performed by the same surgeon were divided into a minimally invasive group, and the patients receiving median thoracotomy were into a conventional group. By propensity score matching, preoperative data were balanced. Perioperative and postoperative follow-up data of the two groups were compared. Results A total of 890 patients were collected. There were 211 males and 28 females, aged 60.54±9.40 years in the minimally invasive group, and 487 males and 164 females, aged 62.31±8.64 years in the conventional group. After propensity score matching, there were 239 patients in each group. Compared with the conventional group, patients in the minimally invasive group had longer operation time, shorter drainage duration, less drainage volume on the first postoperative day, shorter postoperative hospital stay, and lower rate of positive inotropenic drugs use, while there was no statistical difference in the mean number of bypass grafts, ICU stay, ventilator-assisted time, blood transfusion rate or perioperative complications (P＞0.05). During the median follow-up of 2.25 years, there was no statistical difference in major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, including all-cause death, stroke or revascularization between the two groups (P＞0.05). ConclusionReasonable clinical strategies can ensure perioperative and mid-term surgical outcomes of MICS CABG not inferior to conventional CABG. In addition, MICS CABG has the advantages in terms of postoperative hospital stay, postoperative drainage volume, and rate of positive inotropic drugs use.
Objective To evaluate improved effect for deep venous valve function after superficial vein surgery of lower extremity in the intermediate stage. Methods Totally 43 patients (55 limbs) with varicose veins of lower extremity were enrolled to accept surgical management of vein systems in our department from March 2006 to October 2006. All patients were respectively followed up after 6 months and 4 years about the changes of deep venous valve function with color Doppler ultrasonography. Results Thirty-nine patients’ deep venous valve function kept well up to now, and there was no significant difference between the two results. Four patients without proximal saphenous vein ligation recurred, and there was reflux in deep venous. Conclusion Endovenous laser treatment and ablation of varicose veins of lower extremity with deep venous insufficiency could improve deep venous valve function effectively. Proximal great saphenous vein ligation is important for successful operation.
Objective To evaluate the function of the reconstructed thumbs and the donor feet after thumb reconstructions with modified wrap-around flap. Methods A total of 65 patients who accepted thumb reconstruction with the modified wrap-around flap between January 2003 and October 2007 were followed up, including 54 males and 11 females with an average age of 33 years (range 15-46 years). There were 12 cases of skin degloving injury and late class I B defect, 44 cases of class II defect and 9 cases of class III A defect. The reconstructed thumbs and donor feet were examined andevaluated. Foot function index-verbal rating scales (FFI-5pt), American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) forhallux metatarsophalangeal-interphalangeal score, gait analysis and dynamic pedobarography were conducted to 20 patients who were followed up recently. Results Sixty-five patients were followed up 6-60 months with an average of 22 months. The reconstructed thumbs had aesthetic appearance and satisfactory range of motion. The two-point discrimination was (9.7 ± 2.8) mm, showing statistically significant difference (P lt; 0.05) when compared with that of the contralateral normal thumb [(4.2 ± 1.1) mm]. Full or most length of the donor toes were preserved in 63 patients. The width of remaining plantar strip skin that covered the plantar weight-bearing area was (24.5 ± 3.7) mm, and its two-point discrimination was (9.0 ± 2.6) mm; showing no statistically significant difference (P gt; 0.05) when compared with that of contralateral normal one [(8.1 ± 1.9) mm]. Of the 20 patients who were followed up recently, the evaluation of the FFI-5pt score showed that the pain scale score was 5.6 ± 4.5, the disabil ity scale score was 1.2 ± 2.7, and the FFI-5pt total scale score was 3.2 ± 2.9. The results of AOFAS cl inical rating scale showed that the pain scale score was 34.0 ± 5.0, the function scale score was 38.7 ± 4.2, the al igment scale score was 15.0 ± 0, and the total AOFAS scale score was 87.7 ± 7.4. There was no statistically significant difference (P gt; 0.05) in the durations of subphases of the gait cycle between the donor foot and the contralateral normal foot, and in the peak force and force-time integral of the two whole foot. The peak force of the donor toe was significantly smaller than that of the contralateral normal toe (P lt; 0.05), but there was no significant difference in the peak pressure (P gt; 0.05); and there were no significant differences in the peak forcesand peak pressures of other six anatomical sites of the two feet (P gt; 0.05). Conclusion Using the modified wrap-around flap for thumb reconstruction, aesthetic and functional thumbs can be obtained, and most of the function of the donor feet can be preserved.
ObjectiveTo enhance the management of occupational exposure, improve post-exposure reporting, promote post-exposure follow-up, reduce blood-borne infections caused by exposure, and ensure occupational safety among medical staff by using comprehensive measures based on nosocomial infection management system.MethodsAll the reported cases of occupational exposure were retrospectively collected from August 2012 to July 2018. The cases were divided into the control group (from August 2012 to July 2015) in which the data were reported in paper, and the observation group (from August 2015 to July 2018) in which the data were reported by nosocomial infection management system. The report and follow up results of occupational exposure in the two groups were compared and analyzed.ResultsAfter three years application of nosocomial infection management system, the occupational exposure report increased 95.8% (increased from 16.7 cases per year to 32.7 cases per year); the follow-up ratio of occupational exposure after one month,3 months and 6 months increased from 65.0% to 93.3% (χ2=15.184, P<0.001), 45.0% to 73.3% (χ2=9.033, P=0.003), and 25.0% to 53.3% (χ2=8.522, P=0.004), respectively.ConclusionApplication of nosocomial infection management system can increase the report of occupational exposure and the follow-up ratio of occupational exposure significantly.
ObjectiveTo understand the follow-up needs of postoperative patients with thyroid cancer and analyze its influencing factors, so as to provide a reference for the establishment of a follow-up management system for patients with thyroid cancer.MethodsConvenience sampling was used to conduct a questionnaire survey on the follow-up need, recovery, anxiety, and stress of patients after thyroid cancer surgery in 2 tertiary A hospitals from March to April in 2020. The self-designed follow-up needs questionnaire, the Quality of Recovery Questionnaire 15 (QoR-15), the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7), and the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-4) were scored. The higher score, the higher need, the better recovery, and the more serious anxiety and stress.ResultsIn this study, 382 questionnaires were distributed, which of 351 were returned and of 349 were valid, the valid callback rate was 99.4% (349/351). ① Follow-up needs. Follow-up form: Online platform was the preferred follow-up method (72.2%), the most patients hoped that the follow-up would be conducted by a doctor (82.5%) and hoped to start the follow-up at 1 month after the operation (67.6%) and in the afternoon (50.7%), the duration of each follow-up was 10–15 min (47.3%), and accepted the follow-up frequency of 1 times per month (41.3%) and the lifetime follow-up (69.9%). Needs degree of follow-up contents: There were 13 follow-up items requiring more than 80% of patients. The top 5 items with the higher follow-up needs score were the question on test results, returning visit guidance, knowledges of metastasis and recurrence, medication guidance, and issuance of inspection orders, and their scores were 4.78±0.47, 4.70±0.51, 4.70±0.57, 4.65±0.59, 4.57±0.64, respectively. The results of multiple linear regression analysis were found that the age (young), marital status (unmarried), medical payment method (with medical insurance), and postoperative interval (<1 month) were closely related to the follow-up needs score (P<0.05). ② Recovery, anxiety, and stress statuses: The total QoR-15 score of patients was 79.87±29.95, which was positively correlated with the total score of follow-up needs (72.93±8.52, r=0.131, P=0.014). No significant correlation was found between the total score of GAD-7 (4.77±3.59) or PSS-4 (6.51±3.10) and the total score of follow-up needs (r=0.068, P=0.207; r=0.008, P=0.881).ConclusionsYoung, unmarried, medically insured, and early postoperative patients with thyroid cancer have higher follow-up needs. Patients with better recovery after surgery have a higher follow-up needs. Medical staff should pay attention to follow-up services after discharge, rationally arrange content, frequency, and time period of follow-up according to follow-up needs of patients, so as to improve quality of medical services.
