Objectives Early recurrence after surgical resection adversely affects long-term survival of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. This study aims to develop and validate a novel predictive model for early recurrence of HCC after curative resection. Methods A retrospective study included 132 HCC patients who underwent surgical resection at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University between October 2018 and May 2021. Clinical and pathological features were evaluated to assess parameters independently linked with early recurrence. Associations between possible risk factors and early recurrence were evaluated using multivariate logistic regression models. Results Of the 132 individuals, 48 (36.36 %) had early recurrence. Multivariate analysis identified AFP level >= 400 ng/mL (OR=2.603, 95 % CI: 1.056-6.587, p=0.039), portal hypertension (OR=3.556, 95 % CI: 1.195-11.049, p=0.024), tumor size>10 cm (OR=5.036, 95 % CI: 1.264-23.237, p=0.027), albumin<35 g/L (OR=0.127, 95 % CI: 0.041-0.353, p<0.001), and GGT >= 50 U/L (OR=2.172, 95 % CI: 0.863-5.612, p=0.042) were independently predictive of early recurrence. Conclusions Early recurrence after HCC resection is associated with high AFP levels, presence of portal hypertension, larger tumor size, reduced serum albumin, and elevated GGT levels. Monitoring of these signs after surgery may help identify patients at a higher risk more quickly, allowing for earlier intervention and potentially better long-term outcomes.
Background The advantages of laparoscopic left-sided hepatectomy (LLH) for treating hepatolithiasis in terms of the time to postoperative length of hospital stay (LOS), morbidity, long-term abdominal wall hernias, hospital costs, residual stone rate, and recurrence of calculus have not been confirmed by a randomized controlled trial. The aim of this trial is to compare the safety and effectiveness of LLH with open left-sided hepatectomy (OLH) for the treatment of hepatolithiasis. Methods Patients with hepatolithiasis eligible for left-sided hepatectomy will be recruited. The experimental design will produce two randomized arms (laparoscopic and open hepatectomy) at a 1:1 ratio and a prospective registry. All patients will undergo surgery in the setting of an enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) programme. The prospective registry will be based on patients who cannot be randomized because of the explicit treatment preference of the patient or surgeon or because of ineligibility (not meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria) for randomization in this trial. The primary outcome is the LOS. The secondary outcomes are percentage readmission, morbidity, mortality, hospital costs, long-term incidence of incisional hernias, residual stone rate, and recurrence of calculus. It will be assumed that, in patients undergoing LLH, the length of hospital stay will be reduced by 1 day. A sample size of 86 patients in each randomization arm has been calculated as sufficient to detect a 1-day reduction in LOS [90% power and α = 0.05 (two-tailed)]. The trial is a randomized controlled trial that will provide evidence for the merits of laparoscopic surgery in patients undergoing liver resection within an ERAS programme. Conclusions Although the outcomes of LLH have been proven to be comparable to those of OLH in retrospective studies, the use of LLH remains restricted, partly due to the lack of short- and long-term informative RCTs pertaining to patients with hepatolithiasis in ERAS programmes. To evaluate the surgical and long-term outcomes of LLH, we will perform a prospective RCT to compare LLH with OLH for hepatolithiasis within an ERAS programme.

原发性肝细胞癌(简称肝癌)是我国常见的消化道恶性肿瘤之一,据统计,肝癌为2018年全球第六大癌症和第四大癌症死因,每年约有841000例新病例和782000例死亡;主要包括肝细胞癌(占病例的80%)和肝内胆管癌(占病例的20%)以及其他罕见类型.
To study whether laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) is able to alleviate the postoperative liver function impairment for hepatocellular carcinoma patients, the clinical data of 103 patients were retrospectively analyzed, including 42 patients who underwent LLR and 61 patients who underwent open liver resection (OLR), during the period spanning from 2012 to 2017. The postoperative peak aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase levels in the LLR group were significantly lower than those of the OLR group (209.76±189.516 vs. 262.55±181.19, P=0.046; 250.56±200.944 vs. 411.01±412.51, P=0.005, for aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase, respectively). The recovering of postoperative total protein and albumin in the LLR group was faster than that in the OLR group, and the total protein and albumin levels on the postoperative day-5 were significantly higher in the LLR group than in the OLR group (62.528±9.427 vs. 57.87±6.101, P=0.019; 36.456±4.875 vs. 33.653±4.112, P=0.012, respectively). In conclusion, these data show that LLR alleviates postoperative liver function impairment and increases liver function recovery.

To investigate the clinical application ofthe "three lines and one plane" concept as the anatomic landmarks during laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE).From January 2014 to February 2017, 148 cases of LCBDE performed in the General Surgery Department of the 2nd affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University were recruited, and analyzed in this study. "Three lines and one plane" was applied as anatomical landmarks during LCBDE, and the perioperative clinical outcomes were analyzed.No serious operational complications occurred in all the patients in this study. Two cases (1.4%) was converted to open operation. Two other cases (1.4%) suffered post-operative bile leakage and were cured by conservative treatment. All patients recovered uneventfully.Anatomical landmarks of "three lines and one plane" is benefit in helping surgeons to build a three-dimensional (3D) anatomical construction, and avoiding the operative injury of the bile duct, and vessels.
Objective To compare the perioperative outcomes of laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) versus open liver resection (OLR) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods A total of 89 HCC patients undergoing liver resection between January 2012 and November 2016 were enrolled.Nonparametric tests were employed to compare the clinicalpathological characters and preoperative outcomes.Results No significant difference was observed in clinicalpathological features and postoperative morbidity.LLR group had shorter hospital stay (Z =4.642,P <0.01),lower serum ALT level in 1st,3rd and 5 day (Z =2.157,3.089,2.384,all P <0.05) and AST level in 1st-and 3rd-day postoperatively (Z =2.688,2.566,all P <0.05).The growth rate in serum total protein (TP) and albumin (ALB) postoperatively is higher for LLR group (y =2.348 4x + 51.696 vs.y =0.902 9 + 35.532),(y =1.539 9x + 29.68 vs.y =0.732 9x + 30.406).Conclusion LLR allows quicker liver function recovery and shortens patients' postoperative hospital stay.
A comprehensive meta-analysis was performed to investigate whether the combination of high-/low-dose of aspirin and various intensities of warfarin (W) offer greater benefit than aspirin (ASA) alone. A total of 14 randomized clinical trials (RCTs) having 26,916 patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) met inclusion criteria. The efficacy and safety of all outcomes which included myocardial infarction (MI), all-cause death, stroke, and bleeding were calculated. The overall outcomes analysis showed there was no significant difference in the risk of MI (relative ratio [RR] 0.959, 95 % confidence interval [CI] 0.78–1.04, P = 0.308), stroke (RR 0.789, 95 % CI 0.57–1.09, P = 0.145), and all-cause death (RR 1.007, 95 % CI 0.93–1.09, P = 0.87) between the combination group and ASA group. The subgroup analysis suggested that ASA (≤100 mg/day) plus W (mean international normalized ratio [INR] 2.0–3.0) decreased the risk rate of stroke (RR 0.660, 95 % CI 0.50–0.87, P = 0.003). There was a lower risk of MI (RR 0.605, 95 % CI 0.47–0.77, P < 0.0001) as well as stroke (RR 0.594, 95 % CI 0.45–0.79, P < 0.0001) between W (INR 2.0–3.0) combined with ASA (mean dose ≥100 mg/day) and ASA. However, the risk of major bleeding (RR 1.738, 95 % CI 1.45–2.08, P < 0.0001) and minor bleeding (RR 2.767, 95 % CI 2.12–3.61, P < 0.0001) was almost doubled in the combined groups. Compared with ASA, high-dose aspirin with moderate-intensity warfarin (INR 2.0–3.0) may better reduce the risk of MI and stroke but confer an increased risk of bleeding.
Objective: To investigate the application value of using “three lines and one plane” as landmarks for extrahepatic bile ducts in laparoscopic surgery for bile duct stones. <br> Methods: From January 2014 to December 2015, 445 cases of laparoscopic cholecystectomy and 70 cases of laparoscopic common bile duct exploration consecutively performed in the First Department of General Surgery of the Second Affliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University. “hTree lines and one plane” which refers to the upper curve of the duodenal bulb, the arc incisure curve of the hepatic pedicle of the right posterior lobe, the middle line between the common hepatic duct and the common bile duct and the plane of the hilar plate, were used as anatomical landmarks for extrahepatic bile ducts during operation in all patients. <br> Results: No bile duct injury or surgical death occurred in any of the entire group of patients. No open surgical conversion was needed in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy, while in those undergoing laparoscopic common bile duct exploration, one case (1.4%) was converted to open operation and 2 cases (2.9%) developed postoperative bile leakage that was cured by conservative treatment. All patients recovered uneventfully. Conclusion: Using “three lines and one plane” as guidance for dissection of the extrahepatic bile ducts can avoid bile duct and vascular injury during laparoscopic surgery for bile duct stones. So, it is recommended to be used.

Cecropin-P17 is a peptide derived from Cecropin B. In this study, we investigated the effects and relative mechanisms of Cecropin-P17 in a human liver cancer cell line (HepG-2) in vitro and in vivo. A cell viability assay, Annexin V/propidium iodide assay, western blot, flow cytometry, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, and a tumor-xenograft model were applied to elucidate the mechanism exerted by Cecropin-P17 on HepG-2 cells. Cecropin-P17 significantly inhibited the proliferation of HepG-2 cells and demonstrated low cytotoxicity to normal liver cells in vitro. The apoptotic rate of HepG-2 cells was increased after Cecropin-P17 treatment together with increased production of reactive oxygen species. Moreover, Cecropin-P17 stimulated caspase-3, caspase-9, and Bax and inhibited Bcl-2 on both the transcriptional and translational levels. Finally, Cecropin-P17 significantly suppressed tumor growth in a HepG-2-bearing nude mouse model. All of these results indicated that Cecropin-P17 could be a potential agent for the treatment of liver cancer.
