Methods Thirty-nine cases undergoing LC were randomly divided into a CAGA group and a GA group. The CAGA group was treated with electroacupuncture at Hegu （合谷- LI 4）, Neiguan （内关PC 6）, Zusanli （足三里ST 36） and Yanglingquan （阳陵泉 GB 34） for 15-30 minutes followed by the general anesthesia, and the continuous electroacupuncture stimulation was given till the operation finished. The GA group was treated with simple general anesthesia. Changes of T cell subsets, tumor necrosis factor-alpha （TNF-α） and interleukin-6 （IL-6） were observed before anesthesia induction, and 2 hours, 1st and 3 rd day after operation, and the adverse reaction after operation was recorded. Results At 2 hours after operation, the percentages of CD3 and CDs in both groups were significantly lower than those before anesthesia induction （all P〈0.05）, and the percentage of CD4 in the GA group decreased significantly （P〈0.05）, while the percentage of CD： did not significantly change and CD4/CD8 increased significantly in the CAGA group （P〈0.05）. At 3 days after operation, the level of TNF-α in the ACGA group decreased significantly as compared with that before anesthesia induction （P〈0.05）. The cases with nausea after operation in the CAGA group were significantly less than those in the GA group （P〈0.05）. Conclusion Acupuncture combined with general anesthesia has a little effect on immune function in patients of LC with less adverse reactions.展开更多

文摘Geological prospecting and the identification of adverse geological features are essential in tunnel construction,providing critical information to ensure safety and guide engineering decisions.As tunnel projects extend into deeper and more mountainous terrains,engineers face increasingly complex geological conditions,including high water pressure,intense geo-stress,elevated geothermal gradients,and active fault zones.These conditions pose substantial risks such as high-pressure water inrush,largescale collapses,and tunnel boring machine(TBM)blockages.Addressing these challenges requires advanced detection technologies capable of long-distance,high-precision,and intelligent assessments of adverse geology.This paper presents a comprehensive review of recent advancements in tunnel geological ahead prospecting methods.It summarizes the fundamental principles,technical maturity,key challenges,development trends,and real-world applications of various detection techniques.Airborne and semi-airborne geophysical methods enable large-scale reconnaissance for initial surveys in complex terrain.Tunnel-and borehole-based approaches offer high-resolution detection during excavation,including seismic ahead prospecting(SAP),TBM rock-breaking source seismic methods,fulltime-domain tunnel induced polarization(TIP),borehole electrical resistivity,and ground penetrating radar(GPR).To address scenarios involving multiple,coexisting adverse geologies,intelligent inversion and geological identification methods have been developed based on multi-source data fusion and artificial intelligence(AI)techniques.Overall,these advances significantly improve detection range,resolution,and geological characterization capabilities.The methods demonstrate strong adaptability to complex environments and provide reliable subsurface information,supporting safer and more efficient tunnel construction.
文摘BACKGROUND Left colon cancer surgery relies on laparoscopic hemicolectomy,with digestive tract reconstruction critical.End-to-side anastomosis(ESA)and side-to-side anastomosis(SSA)anastomoses are common,but their comparative outcomes,especially in splenic flexure handling and efficacy,need clarification.This study compares ESA and SSA to guide surgical practice.AIM To compare the clinical outcomes of laparoscopically assisted left hemicolectomy with ESA and SSA.METHODS A total of 334 patients were included,with 105 patients from the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University and 229 patients from the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University,between January 1,2012,and May 31,2020.The patients were divided into two groups:146 cases in the ESA group and 188 cases in the SSA group.Clinical data from both groups were compared,and the survival prognosis was followed up.RESULTS The operation time for the ESA group was significantly shorter than that of the SSA group(197.1±57.7 minutes vs 218.6±67.5 minutes,χ2=4.298,P=0.039).There were no significant differences between the two groups in intraoperative blood loss,postoperative pain score at 48 hours,time to first bowel movement,number of lymph nodes dissected,or postoperative complications such as anastomotic leakage,bleeding,stenosis.and adhesive intestinal obstruction at 6 months,12 months,and 24 months(P>0.05).Specifically,the incidence of complications like anastomotic leakage was 2.1%in the ESA group vs 4.3%in the SSA group(P=0.264).The 5-year disease-free survival(DFS)rate was 66.4%for the ESA group and 63.9%for the SSA group(P=0.693).There were no significant differences in the overall survival rate between the two groups.The incidence of splenic laceration was significantly higher in the SSA group(3.7%vs 0.7%,P=0.018).Overall,the 5-year DFS was 66.4%for ESA and 63.9%for SSA,with no significant difference in survival between the groups(P=0.693).CONCLUSION Both laparoscopically assisted left hemicolectomy with ESA and SSA are feasible and offer comparable long-term outcomes.ESA may reduce the need for splenic flexure dissociation,particularly when the tumor is located at the descending colon or its junction with the sigmoid colon,and especially in obese patients,elderly individuals with multiple complications,or those with severe adhesions in the splenic flexure of the surgical field.
文摘BACKGROUND Laparoscopic appendectomy(LA)is the standard treatment for acute appendicitis in children,offering reduced postoperative pain and quicker recovery compared to open surgery.A critical aspect of LA is the secure closure of the appendiceal stump to avoid complications such as leakage and abscess formation.Various closure techniques are employed,including endoloops(ELs),staplers,clips,and energy devices;however,the optimal method remains unclear due to inconsistent evidence.AIM To systematically evaluate and rank the effectiveness and safety of different appendiceal stump closure techniques used in pediatric LA.By assessing outcomes such as postoperative complications,operative time,and length of hospital stay,this analysis seeks to provide evidence-based guidance to clarify clinical decision-making and optimize patient care.METHODS This systematic review and network meta-analysis,conducted according to PRISMA and Cochrane guidelines,compared the effectiveness and safety of stump closure methods in pediatric LA.Databases searched included PubMed,Cochrane Central,Web of Science,and Scopus up to May 1,2025.Eligible studies included both randomized and non-randomized designs reporting surgical outcomes in pediatric patients.Two reviewers independently extracted data and assessed the risk of bias using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale.A frequentist network meta-analysis with a random-effects model was conducted using R software to evaluate total complications(primary outcome),as well as operative time and hospital stay(secondary outcomes).P-scores were used to rank the effectiveness of treatments.RESULTS Fourteen studies comprising over 50000 pediatric patients were included in the network meta-analysis comparing appendiceal stump closure techniques in LA.No significant differences in total postoperative complications or hospital stay were observed among techniques,including EL,endostapler,polymer clip,LigaSure,harmonic scalpel(HS),and sutures.HS showed a statistically significant reduction in operative time compared to EL(mean difference:-13.5 minutes),while other methods did not demonstrate significant time savings.No technique was associated with a statistically significant increase or decrease in postoperative complications or length of stay.Publication bias was minimal,and the methodological quality of included studies was moderate to good.CONCLUSION While all closure techniques show similar safety profiles,HS offers shorter operating times.These findings support tailoring stump closure method selection based on operative efficiency and resource availability.

文摘Objective To compare effects of combined acupuncture and general anesthesia （CAGA） and general anesthesia （GA） on immune function in patients of laparoscopic cholecystectomy （LC） in peri-operative period. Methods Thirty-nine cases undergoing LC were randomly divided into a CAGA group and a GA group. The CAGA group was treated with electroacupuncture at Hegu （合谷- LI 4）, Neiguan （内关PC 6）, Zusanli （足三里ST 36） and Yanglingquan （阳陵泉 GB 34） for 15-30 minutes followed by the general anesthesia, and the continuous electroacupuncture stimulation was given till the operation finished. The GA group was treated with simple general anesthesia. Changes of T cell subsets, tumor necrosis factor-alpha （TNF-α） and interleukin-6 （IL-6） were observed before anesthesia induction, and 2 hours, 1st and 3 rd day after operation, and the adverse reaction after operation was recorded. Results At 2 hours after operation, the percentages of CD3 and CDs in both groups were significantly lower than those before anesthesia induction （all P〈0.05）, and the percentage of CD4 in the GA group decreased significantly （P〈0.05）, while the percentage of CD： did not significantly change and CD4/CD8 increased significantly in the CAGA group （P〈0.05）. At 3 days after operation, the level of TNF-α in the ACGA group decreased significantly as compared with that before anesthesia induction （P〈0.05）. The cases with nausea after operation in the CAGA group were significantly less than those in the GA group （P〈0.05）. Conclusion Acupuncture combined with general anesthesia has a little effect on immune function in patients of LC with less adverse reactions.

文摘As pivotal supporting technologies for smart manufacturing and digital engineering,model-based and data-driven methods have been widely applied in many industrial fields,such as product design,process monitoring,and smart maintenance.While promising,both methods have issues that need to be addressed.For example,model-based methods are limited by low computational accuracy and a high computational burden,and data-driven methods always suffer from poor interpretability and redundant features.To address these issues,the concept of data-model fusion(DMF)emerges as a promising solution.DMF involves integrating model-based methods with data-driven methods by incorporating big data into model-based methods or embedding relevant domain knowledge into data-driven methods.Despite growing efforts in the field of DMF,a unanimous definition of DMF remains elusive,and a general framework of DMF has been rarely discussed.This paper aims to address this gap by providing a thorough overview and categorization of both data-driven methods and model-based methods.Subsequently,this paper also presents the definition and categorization of DMF and discusses the general framework of DMF.Moreover,the primary seven applications of DMF are reviewed within the context of smart manufacturing and digital engineering.Finally,this paper directs the future directions of DMF.

文摘BACKGROUND The incidence of gastric cancer has significantly increased in recent years.Surgical resection is the main treatment,but the method of digestive tract reconstruction after gastric cancer surgery remains controversial.In the current study,we sought to explore a reasonable method of digestive tract reconstruction and improve the quality of life and nutritional status of patients after surgery.To this end,we statistically analyzed the clinical results of patients with gastric cancer who underwent jejunal interposition double-tract reconstruction(DTR)and esophageal jejunum Roux-en-Y reconstruction(RY).AIM To explore the application effect of DTR in total laparoscopic radical total gastrectomy(TLTG)and evaluate its safety and efficacy.METHODS We collected the relevant data of 77 patients who underwent TLTG at the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University from October 2021 to January 2023.Among them,35 cases were treated with DTR,and the remaining 42 cases were treated with traditional RY.After 1:1 propensity score matching,the cases were grouped into 31 cases per group,with evenly distributed data.The clinical characteristics and short-and long-term clinical outcomes of the two groups were statistically analyzed.RESULTS The two groups showed no significant differences in basic data,intraoperative blood loss,number of lymph node dissections,first defecation time after operation,postoperative hospital stay,postoperative complications,and laboratory examination results on the 1st,3rd,and 5th days after operation.The operation time of the DTR group was longer than that of the RY group[(307.58±65.14)min vs(272.45±62.09)min,P=0.016],but the first intake of liquid food in the DTR group was shorter than that in the RY group[(4.45±1.18)d vs(6.0±5.18)d,P=0.028].The incidence of reflux heartburn(Visick grade)and postoperative gallbladder disease in the DTR group was lower than that in the RY group(P=0.033 and P=0.038).Although there was no significant difference in body weight,hemoglobin,prealbumin,and albumin between the two groups at 1,3 and 6 months after surgery,the diet of patients in the DTR group was better than that in the RY group(P=0.031).CONCLUSION The clinical effect of DTR in TLTG is better than that of RY,indicating that it is a more valuable digestive tract reconstruction method in laparoscopic gastric cancer surgery.

文摘With the continuous increase of aeroengine flight ceiling(>20 km),the thin atmosphere at high altitudes and the size effect all cause the compressor component inlet Reynolds number to decrease rapidly to a critical value(approximately 2.0×10^(5)),and the significant transition process on the blade/endwall surface leads to the sharp degradation of compressor performance,which seriously affects the engine fuel consumption and working stability at high altitudes.In this paper,the research progress on the internal flow mechanism and flow control methods of axial compressors at low Reynolds numbers is reviewed from the aspects of quantification and prediction of performance variation,flow loss mechanism related to separation and transition,efficient transition control and flow field organization.The development trend of the low-Reynolds-number effect of axial flow compressors is noted,and the difficulties and application prospects of aerodynamic design and efficient flow control methods for compressors under low Reynolds numbers at high altitudes are discussed.
