ObjectiveTo review the application of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (Ω-3PUFAs) in patients with gastric cancer.MethodThe related literatures about the application of Ω-3PUFAs in patients with gastric cancer were reviewed by searching domestic and international databases.ResultsΩ-3PUFAs didn’t only improve the perioperative immune function and inflammatory response in patients with gastric cancer, but also prevent the occurrence of gastric cancer, inhibit the proliferation and promote the apoptosis of gastric cancer cells, increase the sensitivity of chemotherapy, and reduce the occurrence of chemotherapy-related adverse events.ConclusionsΩ-3PUFAsis an immunological nutrition, which can provide energy and also has functions of anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, immunity regulation. It has been widely used in patients with gastric cancer, but the relevant mechanism needs further to be investigated.
ObjectiveTo investigate the influencing factor of intraoperative hypothermia during laparotomy.MethodsA total of 81 patients underwent laparotomy in our hospital from October 1, 2018 to January 1, 2019 were enrolled. The difference of preoperative baseline data and surgical data between the hypothermia and non-hypothermia groups was compared, and the influencing factor of intraoperative hypothermia during laparotomy was explored.ResultsOf the 81 patients, 32 patients occurred hypothermia during operation. There were no significant differences in gender, age, BMI, HGB, WBC count, PLT count, TB, AST, ALT, ALB, PT, operation time, postoperative hospital stay, and Clavien-Dindo grade between the hypothermia group and the non-hypothermia group (P>0.05), but there were significant differences in intraoperative infusion volume, intraoperative blood loss, and surgical mode (P<0.05). The intraoperative infusion volume and intraoperative blood loss in the hypothermia group were higher than those in the non-hypothermia operation group, and the proportion of hepatectomy was higher than that in the non-hypothermia group. The multivariate analysis show that the intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative infusion volume, and kind of operation were the risk factors for the hypothermia during laparotomy (P<0.05).ConclusionsIntraoperative hypothermia is related to intraoperative bleeding volume, intraoperative fluid infusion volume, and the kind of operation. Therefore, for patients with less bleeding, the intraoperative hypothermia can be reduced by limiting the volume of intraoperative fluid infusion. For those patients with more intraoperative bleeding, warming fluid infusion may reduce the incidence of intraoperative hypothermia.
Objective To explore the effect of different nutrition on the immune function of patients with colorectal cancer. Methods A total of 640 colorectal cancer patients were randomized into the enteral nutrition and peripheral nutrition groups. The peripheral venous blood was sampled before operation and on the postoperative days 1 and 7 to determine the serum levels of IgG, IgA, IgM, the percentage of T lymph cell subgroups CD3, CD4, CD4/CD8 and CRP, PGE, α- antitrypsin etc. The patient’s general condition, side-effects, and complications were observed intimately after surgery. Results Compared with the control group, the IgG, IgA, IgM, CD3, CD4,CD4/CD8 levels of the trial group on postoperative day 7 were higher. But the levels of CRP, PGE, α- antitrypsin were decreased. Hospitalization time and anal exsufflation time were shorter as well. There was no significant difference in either the general conditions or complications between the two groups. Conclusion Application of enteral nutrition after colorectal cancer surgery is safe, ,effective, and can improve the patient’s immune function and prognosis.

ObjectiveTo understand the current state of medical graduate student labor education in the new era and its effectiveness, to explore the mechanism by which labor education affects labor practices, and to identify intervention points for improving labor education. MethodsA questionnaire survey was conducted from July 3 to 13, 2022, on the labor education of 216 medical graduate students from 10 double-first-class universities. The relationship between labor education, labor awareness, labor ability, and labor practices was analyzed. ResultsDescriptive analysis results showed that medical graduate students received little labor education. The structural equation model results showed that labor education positively impacted labor awareness (γ=0.712) and labor ability (γ=0.755), and labor awareness and labor ability positively impacted labor practices (γ=0.400, γ=0.635), indicating that labor education has a positive impact on labor practices. ConclusionTo improve the weak state of medical graduate student labor education, it is necessary to increase related training and courses, enrich the types and content of labor education, strengthen the assessment mechanism of labor education, and strengthen the responsibilities of instructors.
ObjectiveTo analyze the relationship between preoperative pulmonary function indexes and postoperative pneumonia (POP) in patients undergoing upper gastrointestinal surgery.MethodsThe clinical data of 303 patients who underwent lung function examination and upper gastrointestinal surgery in West China Hospital, Sichuan University from September 2020 to January 2021 were prospectively collected and analyzed. There were 217 males and 86 females, with an average age of 61.61±10.42 years. Pulmonary function was evaluated from four aspects including ventilatory function, pulmonary volume, diffusion function and airway resistance. Relevant pulmonary function indicators were displayed as the percentage of actual measured value to predicted value (%pred). The outcome index was pneumonia within 30 days after the surgery. Logistic regression was used to analyze the relationship between preoperative pulmonary function indicators and POP.ResultsA total of 196 patients with gastric cancer and 107 patients with esophageal cancer were included, and the incidence of POP in patients undergoing upper gastrointestinal surgery was 26.7% (81/303). Patients with preoperative low peak expiratory flow (PEF%pred) had a 3.094 times higher risk of developing POP than those with normal PEF%pred [OR=3.094, 95%CI (1.362, 7.032), P=0.007]. The incidence of POP had no correlation with the other preoperative indicators.ConclusionPreoperative PEF%pred may be an important indicator for predicting the occurrence of POP in patients undergoing upper gastrointestinal surgery.
ObjectiveTo summarize the existing prevention and treatment methods for postoperative enteral nutrition intolerance in patients with gastric cancer, so as to provide reference for clinical health care providers. MethodThe related literatures on the factors affecting and the prevention and treatment measures for postoperative enteral nutrition intolerance in Chinese and English databases were systematically searched, and summarized. ResultsThe occurrence of enteral nutrition intolerance after gastric cancer surgery was the result of the interaction of multiple factors. Currently, the prevention and treatment measures of enteral nutrition intolerance covered various aspects, including traditional Chinese medicine therapies such as moxibustion and massage, optimizing the nutritional formula to improve tolerance, adjusting the enteral nutrition infusion methods to reduce adverse reactions, and strategies such as enteral nutrition preconditioning. However, the effectiveness of some measures still required further validation. Conclusions At present, a series of measures have been taken in clinic for enteral nutrition intolerance, and some results have been achieved. In the future, we should strengthen the identification of people at risk of enteral nutrition intolerance to prevent the occurrence of enteral nutrition intolerance. At the same time, a scientific enteral nutrition scheme is formulated to ensure the implementation effect of enteral nutrition and promote the prognosis of patients.

Methods Self-made questionnaires were used to investigate the defecation change among patients having undergone inguinal hernia mesh-repairs from May to June 2010, and the correlated factors for change of defecation were analyzed by logistic regression analysis. Results Reduction of activity and food, changes of food ingredients, and worries about recurrence were risk factors for change of defecation. Conclusion In order to facilitate the recovery of the patients, nurses should promote patients’ knowledge on the surgery, guide them to eat as usual and do more exercises, and eliminate their anxiety on recurrence of the disease.
ObejectiveTo summarize the research progress of risk factors contributing to postoperative pulmonary infection in gastric cancer, so as to provide reference for medical decision-makers and clinical practitioners to effectively control the incidence of postoperative pulmonary infection in gastric cancer, ensure medical safety and improve the quality of life of patients. MethodThe researches at home and abroad on the factors contributing to pulmonary infection after gastric cancer surgery in recent years were reviewed and analyzed. ResultsThere was currently no uniform diagnostic standard for pulmonary infection. The incidence of postoperative pulmonary infection for gastric cancer varied in the different countries and regions. The pathogenic bacteria that caused postoperative pulmonary infection of gastric cancer was mainly gram-negative bacteria, especially Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Acinetobacter boulardii, and Klebsiella pneumoniae. The patient’s age, history of smoking, preoperative pulmonary function, preoperative laboratory indicators, preoperative comorbidities, preoperative nutritional status, preoperative weakness, anesthesia, tumor location, surgical modality, duration of surgery, blood transfusion, indwelling gastrointestinal decompression tube, wound pain, and so on were possible factors associated with postoperative pulmonary infection of gastric cancer. ConclusionsThe incidence of postoperative pulmonary infection for gastric cancer is not promising. Based on the recognition of related factors, it is proposed that it is necessary to develop a risk prediction model for postoperative pulmonary infection of gastric cancer to identify high-risk patients. In addition to the conventional intervention strategy, taking the pathogenesis as the breakthrough, finding the key factors that lead to the occurrence of postoperative pulmonary infection of gastric cancer is the fundamental way to reduce its occurrence.
Objective To compare the differences in evaluating readiness for hospital discharge between nurses and colorectal cancer (CRC) patients following enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) pathway. Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted in Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, West China Hospital, Sichuan University. Patient-reported Readiness for Hospital Discharge Scale (RHDS) and nurse-reported RHDS were delivered to 130 CRC patients and 40 nurses respectively. All patients were followed ERAS pathway during perioperative periods. The differences were compared in evaluating readiness for hospital discharge between nurses and CRC patients. Results This study investigated 130 CRC patients and 40 responsible nurses. The scores of RHDS from nurses and patients were 162.86±27.95 and 149.86±33.65 respectively. When evaluating whether patients were ready to go home after discharge, the consistency between nurses’ results and patients’ results was weak（κ=0.365, P<0.001）. Items in patients’ RHDS scoring ranking from high to low were expected support, coping ability, knowledge, and personal status. Items in nurses’ RHDS scoring ranking from high to low were expected support, knowledge, coping ability, and personal status. Besides the " social support” dimension, the scores of other 3 dimensions from nurses were significantly higher than those from patients (P<0.05). Conclusion There is a gap between the assessment of RHDS from nurses and patients, nurses overestimated patients’ discharge readiness level.
