To compare the efficacy and feasibility of endoscopic retrograde appendicitis therapy (ERAT) with appendectomy for treating acute uncomplicated appendicitis.This was a prospective multicenter randomized trial in which consecutive patients were randomized at a ratio of 1:1 to receive either ERAT or appendectomy. The outcomes included technical success rate, procedure time, postoperative pain relief, postoperative analgesic use, time to soft diet intake, length of postoperative hospital stay, postoperative complications, and recurrence rate.From August 2013 to December 2015, 110 patients with acute uncomplicated appendicitis were randomized to ERAT or appendectomy. The technical success rate was 94.55% for ERAT compared with 100% for appendectomy. Recurrence of appendicitis within 3-year follow-up occurred in 8 patients following ERAT. Postoperative abdominal pain was less frequent with ERAT than with appendectomy (21.15% [11/52] vs 87.27% [48/55], P 0.001). Soft diet intake begun earlier after ERAT than appendectomy (6 h vs 48 h, P 0.001), and post-procedure hospital stay was shorter (3 days vs 5 days, P 0.001), as was the use of analgesics postoperatively (9.09% vs 49.09%, P 0.001).ERAT is a feasible, safe, and effective alternative approach for the management of acute uncomplicated appendicitis. Compared with appendectomy, advantages of ERAT include no skin wound, organ preservation, reduced postoperative pain, early food intake, quick recovery, fewer postoperative complications, and shorter post-procedure hospitalization. The unsolved problem related to ERAT is the recurrence of appendicitis.

Endoscopic direct-vision imaging or fluoroscopic endoscopic retrograde appendicography was performed to separate suspected acute appendicitis from actual acute appendicitis. The success rate, complications, and recurrence rate were recorded.Results: Acute appendicitis was ruled out by normal endoscopic retrograde appendicography in 8 (24%) and confirmed in 23 patients (70%). In 2 patients (6%), appendiceal orifice cannulation failed. Colonoscopic findings in acute appendicitis were mucosal hyperemia and edema of appendiceal orifice (83%), outpouring of pus from the appendiceal orifice (74%), and swollen cecal mucosa (61%). Appendicograpic findings were either normal or in acute disease showed diffuse luminal dilation (diameter: 0.8± 0.4 mm), partial stenosis (43%), stiffness or inflexibility (87%) and filling defects (22%). There were no complications during or after follow-up for a median of 13 months (IQR: 9– 24 months).Conclusion: Endoscopic retrograde appendicography appears to be a reliable and safe method to confirm or exclude the diagnosis of acute appendicitis and prevent unnecessary appendectomy.Keywords: acute appendicitis, endoscopic retrograde appendicography, diagnosis, appendicography

Background This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic and therapeutic value of a digital single-operator cholangioscope (SOC) system for endoscopic management of acute appendicitis. Methods 14 patients with acute uncomplicated simple or supportive appendicitis were evaluated between November 2018 and September 2020. The diagnosis of acute appendicitis was confirmed by direct colonoscopy imaging and cholangioscope. The success rate of digital SOC-assisted endoscopic retrograde appendicitis therapy (ERAT), the procedure time, postoperative length of hospital stay, complications, and recurrence rate were recorded. Results Technical success rate was 100 %, with high quality imaging of the appendiceal cavity achieved using SOC in all 14 patients. The mean procedure time was 37.8 (standard deviation [SD] 22) minutes. All patients experienced immediate relief from abdominal pain after the procedure. Mean postoperative hospitalization was 1.9 (SD 0.7) days. No recurrence occurred during 2–24 months of follow-up. Conclusion Digital SOC-assisted ERAT provided a feasible, safe, and effective alternative approach for diagnosis and management of acute uncomplicated appendicitis without the need for X-ray or ultrasonic guidance.

BackgroundAlcohol-induced intestinal dysbiosis disrupts and inflammatory responses are essential in the development of alcoholic fatty liver disease (AFLD). Here, we investigated the effects of Fmo5 on changes in enteric microbiome composition in a model of AFLD and dissected the pathogenic role of Fmo5 in AFLD-induced liver pathology.MethodsThe expression profile data of GSE8006 and GSE40334 datasets were downloaded from the GEO database. The WGCNA approach allowed us to investigate the AFLD-correlated module. DEGs were used to perform KEGG pathway enrichment analyses. Four PPI networks were constructed using the STRING database and visualized using Cytoscape software. The Cytohubba plug-in was used to identify the hub genes. Western blot and immunohistochemistry assays were used to detect protein expression. ELISA assay was used to detect the levels of serum inflammatory cytokines. Lipid droplets in the cytoplasm were observed using Oil Red O staining. Apoptosis was detected using a TUNEL assay and flow cytometry analysis. ROS levels were detected using flow cytometry analysis. Nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65 was observed using immunofluorescence staining. Co-immunoprecipitation was used to detect the co-expression of PPARα and Fmo5 in L02 cells. 16S rDNA sequencing defined the bacterial communities in mice with AFLD.ResultsFmo5 is a key DEG and is closely associated with the gut microbiota and PPAR signaling pathway. Gut microbiome function in AFLD was significantly related to the PPAR signaling pathway. AFLD induced shifts in various bacterial phyla in the cecum, including a reduction in Bacteroidetes and increased Firmicutes. Fmo5 and PPARα co-expression in cell and animal models with AFLD, which decreased significantly. Silencing of Fmo5 and PPARα aggravated the functions of AFLD inducing apoptosis and inflammatory response, promoting liver injury, and activating the NF-κB signaling pathway in vivo and in vitro. The NF-κB inhibitor abolished the functions of silencing of Fmo5 and PPARα promoting AFLD-induced apoptosis, inflammatory response, and liver injury.ConclusionOur data indicated that the co-expression of Fmo5 and PPARα was involved in AFLD-related gut microbiota composition and alleviated AFLD-induced liver injury, apoptosis, and inflammatory response by inhibiting the nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65 to inhibit the NF-κB signaling pathway.

Background and Aim: Appendicography had been used in the diagnosis of chronic appendicitis. To our knowledge, the role of endoscopic retrograde appendicography for the diagnosis of acute appendicitis remains unknown. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of endoscopic retrograde appendicography for the diagnosis of acute appendicitis.Patients and Method: Patients with suspected acute appendicitis between December 2013 and November 2015 at Second Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University underwent endoscopic retrograde appendicography. The findings and complication were analyzed retrospectively.Results: Thirty-three patients (20 men and 13 women, average age 44 ± 18 years) with suspected acute appendicitis were studied. Acute appendicitis was ruled out by normal endoscopic retrograde appendicography in 24% and confirmed in 69.6% (23). In 2 patients (8%) appendiceal orifice cannulation failed. Colonoscopic findings in acute appendicitis were mucosal hyperemia and edema of appendiceal orifice (83%), outpouring of pus from the appendiceal orifice (74%), and swollen cecal mucosa (61%). Appendicograpic findings were either normal or in acute disease showed diffuse lumenal dilation (diameter: 0.8 ± 0.4 mm), partial stenosis (43%), stiffness or inflexibility (87%) and filling defects (22%). There were no complications during or after follow-up for a median of 13 months (IQR: 9-24 months).Conclusions: Endoscopic retrograde appendicography appears to be a reliable and safe method to confirm or exclude the diagnosis of acute appendicitis and prevent unnecessary appendectomy.

Among the various consequence arising from lung injury, hepatic fibrosis is the most severe. Decreasing the effects of hepatic fibrosis remains one of the primary therapeutic challenges in hepatology. Dysfunction of hepatic sinusoidal endothelial cells is considered to be one of the initial events that occur in liver injury. Vascular endothelial growth factor signaling is involved in the progression of genotype changes. The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of the tyrosine kinase inhibitor, vatalanib, on hepatic fibrosis and hepatic sinusoidal capillarization in a carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced mouse model of liver fibrosis. Liver fibrosis was induced in BALB/c mice using CCl4 by intraperitoneal injection for 6 weeks. The four experimental groups included a control, and three experimental groups involving administration of CCl4, vatalanib and a combination of the two. Histopathological staining and measuring live hydroxyproline content evaluated the extent of liver fibrosis. The expression of α-smooth muscle actin (SMA) and cluster of differentiation (CD) 34 was detected by immunohistochemistry. Collagen type I, α-SMA, transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) expression levels were measured by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). The average number of fenestrae per hepatic sinusoid was determined using transmission electron microscopy. Liver fibrosis scores and hydroxyproline content were decreased in both vatalanib groups. In addition, both doses of vatalanib decreased mRNA expression levels of hepatic α-SMA, TGF-β1, collagen-1, VEGFR1, and VEGFR2. Levels of α-SMA and CD34 protein were decreased in the vatalanib group compared with the CCl4 group. There were significant differences in the number of fenestrae per sinusoid between the groups. The present study identified that administration of vatalanib was associated with decreased liver fibrosis and hepatic sinusoidal capillarization in CCl4-induced mouse models, and is a potential compound for counteracting liver fibrosis.

Nowadays, a highly integrated valve-controlled cylinder (HIVC) is applied to drive the joints of legged robots. Although the adoption of HIVC has resulted in high-performance robot control, the hydraulic force system still has problems, such as strong nonlinearity, and time-varying parameters. This makes HIVC force control very difficult and complex. How to improve the control performance of the HIVC force control system and find the influence rule of the system parameters on the control performance is very significant. Firstly, the mathematical model of HIVC force control system is established. Then the mathematical expression for parameter sensitivity matrix is obtained by applying matrix sensitivity analysis (PSM). Then, aimed at the sinusoidal response under (three factors and three levels) working conditions, the simulation and the experiment are conducted. While the error between the simulation and experiment can’t be avoided. Therefore, combined with the range analysis, the error in the two performance indexes of sinusoidal response under the whole working condition is analyzed. Besides, the sensitivity variation pattern for each system parameter under the whole working condition is figured out. Then the two sensitivity indexes for the three system parameters, which are supply pressure, proportional gain and initial displacement of piston, are proved experimentally. The proposed method significantly reveals the sensitivity characteristics of HIVC force control system, which can make the contribution to improve the control performance.

Diagnostic peritoneoscopy is typically performed by using a rigid laparoscope. Inspired by gastric submucosal tunneling for peritoneal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery access and peroral endoscopic myotomy for the treatment of achalasia, we developed a novel esophago-cardial-gastric tunneling (ECGT) peritoneoscopy technique with a flexible endoscope. This study aims to evaluate its feasibility and safety.The study comprised 10 Beagle dogs. A longitudinal mucosal incision was made on the esophageal wall, and a submucosal tunnel was created through the cardia into the stomach. An incision was made in the muscular layer of the stomach, and then the endoscope was advanced into the peritoneal cavity. Peritoneoscopy with the flexible endoscope was performed. After intraperitoneal exploration, the esophageal mucosal entry was closed with endoclips. All dogs resumed food intake 12 hours after the procedures. Diets, behavior, and body temperature of all of the dogs were observed. Endoscopic examinations were performed 4 weeks after the procedure, and then the animals were sacrificed for necropsy.The ECGT peritoneoscopy was successfully done in all dogs. Diets, behavior, and body temperature were normal in all dogs. The entry of the esophagus was healed well in 9 dogs; the mucosa of the entry was torn in 1 dog, but the submucosal tunnel was healed well at the cardia. Necropsy showed complete closure of the gastric serosal exit, and no intraperitoneal abscess was found. Histopathological examinations showed submucosal tunnels healed well.The ECGT peritoneoscopy is feasible and safe for peritoneal exploration. It should be a good choice for the clinical application of diagnostic peritoneoscopy.

The aim of the present study was to detect the effect of the recombinant human endostatin Endostar on hepatic sinusoidal capillarization in CCl4‑induced murine models of liver fibrosis. The liver fibrosis model was induced in BALB/c mice using intraperitoneal injection of CCl4 for 6 weeks. Animals were divided into the following six treatment groups: Group 1, normal animals; group 2, CCl4‑induced liver fibrosis; group 3, CCl4+Endostar 20 mg/kg/day for 6 weeks; group 4, CCl4+Endostar 10 mg/kg/day for 6 weeks; group 5, CCl4+Endostar 20 mg/kg/day for 4 weeks; and group 6, CCl4+Endostar 10 mg/kg/day for 4 weeks. The average number of fenestrae per hepatic sinusoid was determined using transmission electron microscopy. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and VEGF receptor (VEGFR) 1 and 2 expression was detected by western blot analysis. There were significant differences in the number of fenestrae per sinusoid between the normal control and untreated model fibrotic mice (P

Ro60/SSA is a vital auto antigen that is targeted in Sjogren's syndrome and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). However, its role in solid cancers has rarely been reported. The present study investigated the expression and function of Ro60/SSA in the development of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) both in vitro and in vivo. Immunohistochemistry was used to examine the expression of Ro60/SSA in PDAC and normal pancreatic tissues by using tissue microarray chips. The results showed that Ro60/SSA expression was increased in PDAC tissues compared with normal pancreatic tissues. Knockdown of Ro60/SSA by siRNA transfection significantly decreased cell proliferation and invasion in vitro. Furthermore, knockdown of Ro60/SSA inhibited the growth of subcutaneous tumors in vivo. Taken together, the current study provides evidence of new function of Ro60/SSA in the development of cancer. It facilitates pancreatic cancer proliferation, migration and invasion. Therefore, it may represent a novel molecular target for the management of pancreatic cancer.

We report the interplay between Cooper pairs in superconductor NbN and topological surface states in $\mathrm{Sm}{\mathrm{B}}_{6}$ nanowire through magnetotransport measurements. The NbN electrodes are superconductive below 13.5 K and the $\mathrm{Sm}{\mathrm{B}}_{6}$ nanowire shows the surface states dominate transport below 6 K. The tunneling between the topological surface states in $\mathrm{Sm}{\mathrm{B}}_{6}$ and the Cooper pairs in NbN gives rise to a transition from positive to negative magnetoresistance between 0 and 14 T.

${\mathrm{SmB}}_{6}$, as a topological Kondo insulator, has spin-momentum-locked surface states and fully insulating bulk, which presents promising spintronic applications. Here, we report on the magnetotransport properties of individual ${\mathrm{SmB}}_{6}$ nanowires. With decreasing temperature below 10 K, the surface states dominate the transport behavior as reflected by the resistance saturation. At 1.5 K, a transition from negative to positive magnetoresistance occurs with gradually increasing the bias current. The nonlocal measurements indicate that the surface state transport is spin polarized, and the spin diffusion length is as long as 0.5 \ensuremath{\mu}m. Bias-current-modulated two-channel transport is employed to explain the observed sign reversal of the magnetoresistance.

Decreasing hepatic fibrosis remains one of the major therapeutic challenges in hepatology. The present study aims to evaluate the effect of Endostar on both CCl4-induced liver fibrosis in mice and a hepatic stellate cell (HSC) line. Two main models were studied: (i) a liver fibrosis model was induced in BALB/c mice using CCl4 by intraperitoneal injection for six weeks. Six animal groups were studied: group 1: normal animals; group 2: CCl4-induced liver fibrosis; group 3: CCl4 + Endostar 20 mg/kg/d, six weeks; group 4: CCl4 + Endostar 10 mg/kg/d, six weeks; group 5: CCl4 + Endostar 20 mg/kg/d, four weeks; group 6: CCl4 + Endostar 10 mg/kg/d, four weeks corresponded to different Endostar doses and duration of administration. Liver fibrosis was evaluated by histopathological staining and liver hydroxyproline content. Expressions of collagen type I, α-smooth muscle actin ( α-SMA), TGF-β1 and VEGFR were measured by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). (ii) A liver cell model. HSC-T6 cells were cultured with or without Endostar for 12 h or 24 h. Expressions of collagen type I, α-SMA, and TGF-β1 were measured by real-time PCR. Collagen I and transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) contents in cell supernatant were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. As compared to the group without Endostar, liver fibrosis scores and hydroxyproline content were decreased in both Endostar groups ( P 4-induced mice and collagen synthesis in HSCs in vitro. Therefore, this recombinant human endostatin is a promising compound for counteracting liver fibrosis.

SmB6, a topological Kondo insulator, with a gapped bulk state and metallic surface state has aroused great research interest. Here, we report an exotic hysteresis behavior of magnetoresistance in individual SmB6 nanowire in a temperature range in which both surface and bulk states contribute to the total conductance. Under a magnetic field parallel to the SmB6 nanowire, the resistance suddenly increases at the turning point from up-sweep to down-sweep of the magnetic field. The magnetoresistance hysteresis loops are well consistent with the magnetocaloric effect. Our results suggest that the SmB6 nanowires possess potential applications in the magnetic cooling technology.

A three-dimensional (3D) Dirac semimetal is known as a 3D analog of graphene; its Fermi-arc-like surface states are attractive for spintronic applications and can potentially modulate graphene via interface engineering. Here, we report the asymmetric magnetotransport in graphene/Cd3As2 heterostructure devices. The electron transfer occurring at the graphene/Cd3As2 interface results in a strong n-type doping of graphene. The interfacial coupling between graphene and Cd3As2 also enables us to selectively pin the chemical potential of graphene. The asymmetrical magnetotransport near the zero Landau level in graphene suggests that the interfacial coupling between Cd3As2 and graphene can be modulated by the magnetic field.A three-dimensional (3D) Dirac semimetal is known as a 3D analog of graphene; its Fermi-arc-like surface states are attractive for spintronic applications and can potentially modulate graphene via interface engineering.

Polycrystalline CuIn(Se,S)2 (CISS) thin films with chalcopyrite structure were synthesized by sol-gel spin-coating method. Sequential reduction, selenization and sulfurization treatments were performed with hydrogen, Se and H2S vapor, respectively. The effects of different sulfurization times on the films were also studyed. X-ray diffraction (XRD), and SEM analysis have been employed to examine the structural properties and surface morphology of polycrystalline CISS thin films. The experimental results demonstrated that the obtained CISS had good crystallinity and uniformity.

Based on 2006 look-up tables to analysis the effect of pipe diameters on CHF, the correlations are established for horizontal helically coiled tube by introducing equivalent geometrical parameter. According to experimental data, it is found that the correlation is very suitable, and the regularity of horizontal helically coiled tube geometry parameters on CHF tends to be consistent with that of a vertical tube.

Endoscopic resection of esophageal or cardial subepithelial tumors (SETs) originating from the muscularis propria (MP) is rarely done due to the high risk of perforation, fistula formation, and secondary infection. The aim of this study was to evaluate the preliminary clinical feasibility and safety of tunneling endoscopic muscularis dissection (tEMD) for resection of SETs located in the esophagus and gastric cardia Twelve patients with SETs originating from the MP of the esophagus (n = 7) or cardia (n = 5) were treated by tEMD. The procedure included creation of a submucosal tunnel to reach the tumor, dissection of the tumor from the surrounding submucosal tissue and the unaffected MP layer, full-thickness resection of the tumor and affected MP, and subsequent closure of the tunnel mucosal entry with endoscopic clips. The en bloc resection rate was 100 % (seven lesions affected the deep MP so complete MP resection was performed; five lesions affected the superficial MP for a partial MP resection). The average tumor size was 18.5 ± 6.9 (range 10–30) mm. The mean operating time was 78.3 ± 25.5 (range 50–130) min. The histological diagnoses were two gastrointestinal stromal tumors with very low risk, nine leiomyomas, and one schwannoma. Air leakage and effusion included subcutaneous and mediastinal emphysema in eight patients (66.7 %), pneumothorax in four (33.3 %), pneumoperitoneum in three (25.0 %), and small pleural effusion in two (16.7 %). All air leakage and effusion cases were resolved with conservative management. No patient developed delayed hemorrhage and chronic fistula after tEMD. During the mean follow-up time of 7.1 ± 4.3 (range 2–15) months, no tumor recurrence was found in any patient. tEMD appears to be a feasible minimally invasive and effective treatment for patients with SETs originating from the MP layer of the esophagus and cardia.

A non-vacuum process for fabrication of polycrystalline CuIn(Se,S)2 (CISS) thin films with chalcopyrite structure were synthesized by sol-gel spin-coating method using nitrates as precursor for low-cost photovoltaic applications. Sequential reduction, selenization and sulfurization treatments were performed with hydrogen, Se and H2S vapor, respectively. X-ray diffraction (XRD), SEM and EDS analysis have been employed to examine the structural properties, surface morphology and atomic concentrations of polycrystalline CISS thin films. The experimental results demonstrated that the obtained CISS had good crystallinity, uniformity and near stoichiometric composition.

NOTES cholecystectomy has become one of the hottest areas of research. But most of the cases need the assistance of the laparoscope. This study is conducted to evaluate the feasibility and safety of a newly proposed operative method-functional cholecystectomy by pure NOTES.The functional cholecystectomy was performed on eight female miniature pigs. An incision was made on the vaginal wall, and an endoscope was inserted into the peritoneal cavity to create a pneumoperitoneum to expose the intra-abdominal viscera, gallbladder, and cystic duct. The cystic duct was isolated and closed with a clip. Then, an injection needle was inserted into the gallbladder to suck up the bile. After the gallbladder was washed with saline, an incision was made on the wall of the gallbladder, and the tip of the endoscope was inserted into the gallbladder cavity. After the endoscope was withdrawn, the gallbladder incision was closed with clips in four pigs and was suspended in the other four pigs. The vaginal incision was closed with clips. All the animals were closely monitored and euthanized 28 days after the procedure. Necropsy was performed.The functional cholecystectomy was successfully completed in all eight pigs. No severe intraoperative complications occurred. The animals recovered well postoperatively. At necropsy, no macroscopic signs of intraperitoneal infection or bile leakage in the peritoneal cavity were observed, and the clips were still present on the cystic duct in a good position in all cases. The gallbladder incision healed, with no sign of bile leakage or injury to the adjacent organs.We successfully performed the functional cholecystectomy by transvaginal approach on pigs, which appears to be feasible, safe, and convenient. Functional cholecystectomy provides a new fitting path to pure NOTES.

Self-powered photodetectors with a broadband response have attracted great attention due to their potential applications in sensing, imaging, communication, and spectroscopy. Specifically, those with the detection wavelength range covering mid-infrared at room temperature are very challenging and highly desired. Here, the photoresponse of self-powered SmB6 photodetectors is demonstrated through the spatially resolved photocurrent mapping. The photocurrent originates from the interface between the SmB6 and Au electrodes due to the charge separation by built-in electric fields at the interface. It exhibits a stable photoresponse over broadband wavelengths ranging from 488 nm to 10.6 μm at room-temperature. Our results suggest that the chemical vapor deposition grown SmB6 nanowires could be promising candidates for future broadband self-powered detectors and pave the way toward SmB6-based optoelectronic applications.
