Stress can affect the physiological status and production performance of waterfowl through effect on genes and proteins of the neurohumoral regulation, gut microbiota and lipid oxidation, leading to economic losses. Common stress in waterfowl includes heat stress and cold stress. In production, the cold and heat stress of waterfowl can be alleviated by controlling ambient temperature and adding nutrients in diets. In the paper, ducks and geese are taken as representatives of waterfowl and the main influencing mechanisms and nutritional regulation measures of cold and heat stress in winter and summer water-saving poultry production are reviewed, to provide reference for waterfowl breeding and production.

Situs inversus totalis (SIT) is a rare congenital condition, with an extremely low incidence. There is no difference between SIT individuals without onset of diseases and healthy counterparts. However, when SIT individuals suffer from diseases, the diagnosis and treatment are highly challenging due to insufficient understanding of SIT populations, especially for those complicated with end-stage liver disease and requiring liver transplantation. It is a huge challenge for surgeons whether SIT individuals serve as donors or recipients of liver transplantation. In this article, recent case reports related to liver transplantation in SIT patients were summarized, and the development, key procedures, clinical prognosis and postoperative complications of liver transplantation in SIT patients were reviewed.

Liver transplantation can completely remove the tumor and the diseased live r at the same time and is the best choice for patients with liver cancer and liver cirrhosis. With the advances in multimodality therapy for liver cancer in recent years, the concept of conversion therapy has been introduced into the fields of surgical treatment of liver cancer and liver transplantation, and successful conversion therapy is expected to help ineligible liver cancer patients to meet the criteria for liver transplantation and thus improve their prognosis. This article briefly introduces the advances in conversion therapy for liver transplantation for liver cancer. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] more...

Objective To investigate the clinical factors that affect the prognosis of patients with primary vaginal cancer. Methods Clinical data of 118 primary vaginal cancer patients with pathological diagnosis and clinical follow-up data from the Department of Gynecology of Liaoning Cancer Hospital & Institute from 1999 to 2014 were collected and retrospectively analyzed. The relationship of prognosis and factors including age, history of hysterectomy, pathological types, International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage, tumor size, tumor location and therapeutic methods were analyzed, respectively. Results The median survival time of the 118 patients was 93 months. The survival rates of 1, 3, 5, 10 and 15-year were 89.7%, 68.1%, 60.4%, 37.3% and 19.0%, respectively.The results of univariate analysis showed that the FIGO stage, pathological types, tumor size, therapeutic methods and tumor location were related to the prognosis of patients with primary vaginal cancer (all P<0.05), while the patients′ age, history of hysterectomy were not (all P>0.05). The results of Cox multivariate regression analysis indicated that FIGO stage (P=0.008), tumor location (P=0.001) and therapeutic methods (P=0.007) were independent prognostic factors of the patients with primary vaginal cancer. Conclusions Prognostic factorsofpatients with primary vaginal cancer include FIGO stage, pathological types, tumor size, therapeutic methods and tumor location. Among them, therapeutic methods and tumor location are the independent prognostic factors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] more...

Objective To analyze three-dimensional imaging characteristics and advantages for severe portal vein stenosis after liver transplantation, and to evaluate clinical efficacy of portal vein stent implantation. Methods Clinical data of 10 patients who received portal vein stent implantation for severe portal vein stenosis after liver transplantation were retrospectively analyzed. Results Among 10 patients, 3 cases were diagnosed with centripetal stenosis, tortuosity angulation-induced stenosis in 2 cases, compression-induced stenosis in 2 cases, long-segment stenosis and/or vascular occlusion in 3 cases. Three)dimensional reconstruction images possessed advantages in accurate identification of stenosis, identification of stenosis types and measurement of stenosis length. All patients were successfully implanted with portal vein stents. After stent implantation, the diameter of the minimum diameter of portal vein was increased [(6.2±0.9) mm vs. (2.6±1.7) mm, P<0.05], the flow velocity at anastomotic site was decreased [(57±19) cm/s vs. (128±27) cm/s, P<0.05], and the flow velocity at the portal vein adjacent to the liver was increased [(41±6) cm/s vs. (18±6) cm/s, P<0.05]. One patient suffered from intrahepatic hematoma caused by interventional puncture, which was mitigated after conservative observation and treatment. The remaining patients did not experience relevant complications. Conclusions Three-dimensional visualization technique may visually display the location, characteristics and severity of stenosis, which is beneficial for clinicians to make treatment decisions and assist interventional procedures. Timely implantation of portal vein stent may effectively reverse pathological process and improve portal vein blood flow. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] more...

Objective To summarize the diagnosis and treatment experience of portal vein aneurysm after liver transplantation. Methods Clinical data of two recipients with portal vein aneurysm after liver transplantation were retrospectively analyzed. Clinical features, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis were summarized based on literature review. Results Both two cases were diagnosed with intrahepatic portal vein aneurysm complicated with portal vein thrombosis and portal hypertension after liver transplantation. Case 1 was given with targeted conservative treatment and he refused to undergo liver retransplantation. Physical condition was worsened after discharge, and the patient eventually died from liver graft failure, kidney failure, lung infection, and septic shock. Case 2 received high-dose glucocorticoid pulse therapy, whereas liver function was not improved, and the patient was recovered successfully after secondary liver transplantation. Conclusions Long-term complication of portal vein aneurysm (especially intrahepatic type) after liver transplantation probably indicates poor prognosis. Correct understanding, intimate follow-up and active treatment should be conducted. Liver retransplantation may be a potential treatment regimen. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] more...
