Methods From June 2009 to September 2010, 5 832 employees in government departments, enterprises and institutions in Neijiang were surveyed using stratified random sampling method. Items like physical exercise, smoking, drinking, educational level, and family history were collected through face-to-face questionnaire, and their height, weight, fasting plasma glucose, triglyceride, cholesterol were measured. SPSS 17.0 was used for statistical analysis, and the relationship of each index was analyzed by Pearson correlative analysis. Bilateral Plt;0.05 was considered to be statistically significant. Risk factors associated with obesity were analyzed by Logistic regression analysis. Results The overweight and obesity morbidity rate was 27.16%, including 1377 cases of overweight (23.6%) and 207 cases of obesity (3.55%). Fasting plasma glucose, triglyceride, and blood pressure of obesity patients were higher than those of the overweight patients. Correlation analysis showed that overweight and obesity were positively correlated with fasting plasma glucose (r=0.116,Plt;0.01), triglyceride(r=0.319,Plt;0.01), uric acid (r=0.373,Plt;0.01), diastolic blood pressure (r=0.198,Plt;0.01), and systolic blood pressure (r=0.212,Plt;0.01), but not correlated with cholesterol. Logistic regression multivariate analysis showed that overweight and obesity were related with age, smoking, sex, sports, the educational level and family history, but not related with drinking. Conclusions The prevalence of overweight and obesity among employees aged 20 to 60 years old in enterprises and government institutions in Neijiang city is 27.16%. People with overweight and obesity are more susceptible to hyperglycemia, hypertension, hyperlipemia, and hyperuricemia. Overweight and obesity were closely related with age, smoking, gender, sports activities, family history, and educational level.
ObjectiveTo study the correlation of lymph node metastasis and recurrence with body mass index (BMI) and estrogen receptor (ER) in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC).MethodThe relevant literatures were retrieved in the past six years through the CNKI, VIP, Wanfang, CBM, PubMed, Medline, Embase, Cochrane Library, etc. databases for meta-analysis of relationship of lymph node metastasis and recurrence of PTC with BMI or ER and its subtypes.ResultsThe meta-analysis showed that the lymph node metastasis of PTC was associated with the BMI and ERα [OR=1.27, 95% CI (1.12, 1.42), P<0.000 1; OR=2.68, 95% CI (1.86, 3.86), P<0.000 01, respectively ], and which not associated with the ER and ERβ [OR=0.87, 95% CI (0.56, 1.35), P=0.53; OR=1.22, 95% CI (0.78,1.89), P=0.39, respectively ]. The ERα was associated with the PTC recurrence [OR=1.87, 95% CI (1.04, 3.35), P=0.04 ], but the BMI was not the risk factor for the recurrence of PTC [OR=1.187 1, 95% CI (0.930 0, 1.515 3), P=0.17 ].ConclusionsAlthough BMI was not found to be associated with PTC recurrence, high BMI promotes PTC metastasis, so lymph node dissection in obese patients should be more careful and comprehensive. Positive ERα increases risk of lymph node metastasis and recurrence of PTC, which can be used as a negative factor in evaluating prognosis of PTC and provide a new idea for endocrine therapy of PTC.
ObjectiveTo explore the value of modified subcutaneous lumbar spine index (MSLSI) as a predictor for short-term effectiveness of transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) in treatment of lumbar degenerative disease (LDD).MethodsBetween February 2014 and October 2019, 450 patients who were diagnosed as LDD and received single-segment TLIF were included in the study. Based on the MSLSI measured by preoperative lumbar MRI, the patients were sorted from small to large and divided into three groups (n=150). The MSLSI of group A was 0.11-0.49, group B was 0.49-0.73, and group C was 0.73-1.88. There was no significance in gender, age, disease duration, diagnosis, surgical segment, and improved Charlson comorbidity index between groups (P>0.05). There were significant differences in the subcutaneous adipose depth of the L4 vertebral body and body mass index (BMI) between groups (P<0.05). The operation time, intra-operative blood loss, length of incision, drainage tube placement time, drainage volume on the 1st day after operation, drainage volume on the 2nd day after operation, total drainage volume, antibiotic use time after operation, walking exercise time after operation, hospital stay, the incidences of surgical or non-surgical complications in the three groups were compared. Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between MSLSI and BMI, and partial correlation analysis was used to study the relationship between MSLSI, BMI, improved Charlson comorbidity index, subcutaneous adipose depth of the L4 vertebral body and complications. The Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the value of SLSI and MSLSI in predicting the occurrence of complications after TLIF in treatment of LDD.ResultsThere was no significant difference in operation time, length of incision, antibiotic use time after operation, walking exercise time after operation, drainage tube placement time, drainage volume on the 1st day after operation, drainage volume on the 2nd day after operation, and total drainage volume between groups (P>0.05). The amount of intra-operative blood loss in group C was higher than that in groups A and B, and the hospital stay was longer than that in group B, with significant differences (P<0.05). Surgical complications occurred in 22 cases (14.7%), 25 cases (16.7%), and 39 cases (26.0%) of groups A, B, and C, respectively. There was no significant difference in the incidence between groups (χ2=0.826, P=0.662). The incidences of nerve root injury and wound aseptic complications in group C were higher than those in groups A and B, and the incidence of nerve root injury in group B was higher than that in group A, with significant differences (P<0.05). There were 13 cases (8.7%), 7 cases (4.7%), and 11 cases (7.3%) of non-surgical complications in groups A, B, and C, respectively, with no significant difference (χ2=2.128, P=0.345). There was no significant difference in the incidences of cardiovascular complications, urinary system complications, central system complications, and respiratory system complications between groups (P>0.05). There was a correlation between MSLSI and BMI in 450 patients (r=0.619, P=0.047). Partial correlation analysis showed that MSLSI was related to wound aseptic complications (r=0.172, P=0.032), but not related to other surgical and non-surgical complications (P>0.05). There was no correlation between BMI, improved Charlson comorbidity index, subcutaneous adipose depth of the L4 vertebral body and surgical and non-surgical complications (P>0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that the area under ROC curve (AUC) of MSLSI was 0.673 (95%CI 0.546-0.761, P=0.025), and the AUC of SLSI was 0.582 (95%CI 0.472-0.693, P=0.191). ConclusionMSLSI can predict the short-term effectiveness of TLIF in treatment of LDD. Patients with high MSLSI suffer more intra-operative blood loss, longer hospital stay, and higher incidence of nerve root injury and postoperative incision complications.
ObjectiveTo verify the expression change of insulin-like growth factor-Ⅰ (IGF-Ⅰ) protein and its mRNA before and after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery (RYGB) in obese rats, and to investigate the relationship between the expression of IGF-Ⅰ and proliferation/apoptosis of adipose cells.
Methods① Seventy male SD rats were raised at the SPF level circumstance and were randomly divided into control group (NC group, 10 rats) and high fat diet group (60 rats). Rats of high fat diet group were given specific high fat formula diet, rats of NC group were given particular formula diet. After 6 weeks, the body weights of the rats in high fat diet group were measured, and the 20 rats of top weight were selected. The 20 obese rats were randomly divided into 2 groups:gastric bypass (GB) group (n=10) and sham-operation group (SO group, n=10). RYGB were administered to the rats of GB group, and for rats of SO group, sham operations were performed. Rats of NC group did not receive any surgery. Inguinal adipose tissues[represented the subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT)] and epididymal adipose tissues[on behalf of visceral adipose tissue (VAT)] were taken during operation in rats of GB group and SO group respectively (0.5 g), and 12 weeks after operation in all rats of three groups. The expressions of IGF-Ⅰ protein and its mRNA in adipose tissue were detected by Western blot and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR. ② Transfection experiment. SAT cells were divided into blank control group (BC group, without transfection), IGF-Ⅰ(+) group (gene overexpression group), IGF-Ⅰ(+) empty vector group, IGF-Ⅰ(-) group (gene silencing group), and IGF-Ⅰ(-) empty vector group. Cells were transfected with corresponding vectors with 3 duplicated holes of each group. Cell viability and apoptosis assays were carried out in 48 hours after transfection. Expressions of protein kinase B (AKT), phosphorylated protein kinase B (p-AKT), phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), and phosphorylated phosphoinositide 3-kinase (p-PI3K) were detected by Western blot meanwhile. ③ Wortmannin experiment. SAT cells were divided into Wortmannin (+) IGF-Ⅰ(+) group, Wortmannin (+) IGF-Ⅰ(-) group, Wortmannin (-) IGF-Ⅰ(+) group, and Wortmannin (-) IGF-Ⅰ(-) group, which were transfected with corresponding vectors for 24 hours, then adding Wortmannin (0.1 mmol/L). After 24 hours, the expression levels of AKT, p-AKT, p-PI3K, PI3K, and GAPDH were detected by Western blot.
Results① PCR results showed that, in SAT, compared with preoperative GB group, the expression levels of IGF-Ⅰ mRNA and its protein in postoperative GB group were both lower (P < 0.01). However, the expression levels of IGF-Ⅰ mRNA and its protein between preoperative SO group and postoperative SO group showed no significant difference (P > 0.05). In VAT, the expression levels of IGF-Ⅰ mRNA and its protein in 5 groups showed no significant difference (P > 0.05). ② The MTT results showed that, IGF-Ⅰ(+) group harbored stronger proliferation abilities compared with its negative control group (P=0.04), whereas IGF-Ⅰ(-) group had lower abilities compared with its negative control group (P=0.04). The results of flow cytometry assay showed that, the apoptosis rate of IGF-Ⅰ(+) group was lower (P=0.04) than that of the corresponding negative control group, and it was higher in IGF-Ⅰ(-) group than that of the corresponding negative control group (P=0.04). ③ Compared with IGF-Ⅰ(+) empty vector group, p-PI3K/PI3K ratio (P=0.03) and p-AKT/AKT (P=0.04) ratio of IGF-Ⅰ(+) group were increased; compared with IGF-Ⅰ(-) empty vector group, p-PI3K/PI3K ratio (P=0.04) and p-AKT/AKT ratio (P=0.04) of IGF-Ⅰ(-) group were decreased. The p-AKT/AKT ratio of Wortmannin (-) IGF-Ⅰ(+) group was higher (P < 0.05) than that of Wortmannin (+) IGF-Ⅰ(+) group; the p-AKT/AKT ratio of Wortmannin (-) IGF-Ⅰ(-) group was lower than that of Wortmannin (-) IGF-Ⅰ(+) group (P < 0.05).
ConclusionsIGF-Ⅰ is involved in the accumulation of subcutaneous fat in rats. RYGB can significantly reduce the expression levels of IGF-Ⅰ mRNA and its protein in subcutaneous fat of rats, so as to achieve the effect of weight loss.
Objective To formulate an individualized evidence-based treatment for a patient with severe obesity. Methods According to the PICO (patient intervention comparison outcome) principle, the evidence was collected and critically assessed after the clinical issues were put forwarded. The patient’s preference was also taken into account in the decision making process. Results Nine clinical guidelines, eight systematic reviews or meta-analyses and three randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were included. According to the data from the included studies and patient’s special condition, a reasonable surgical treatment regime was made to reduce the weight, relieve all kinds of complications and improve the life quality which were all regarded as the expected target. After one year’s follow-up, the patient’s weight reduced by 20 kg, and some obesity-related co-morbidities such as sleep apnea syndrome and hyperlipoidemia were also improved significantly. Conclusion The laparoscopic adjustable gastric band is an effective operation for severely obese individuals. This procedure can not only achieve weight loss, but also improve some obesity-related co-morbidities.
ObjectiveTo summarize the mechanism of effects of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) on gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and the research progress of LSG in combination with fundoplication on obesity with GERD. MethodThe literatures of studies relevant to relation between LSG and GERD and effect of LSG combined with fundoplication on obesity accompanying GERD at home and abroad were searched and reviewed. ResultsAlthough there was considerable disagreement over the effect of LSG on GERD, the evidence showed that the LSG alone might worsen the existing GERD or promote new GERD, which mainly due to the destruction of the lower esophageal sphincter, deactivation of His angle, elevated intragastric pressure, and shape of sleeve stomach. Currently, the LSG in combination with fundoplication had been gradually applied in the clinical treatment of obese patients with GERD. And the short-term results of follow-up showed that the effects of weight loss and anti-reflux could be obtained, which needed to be evaluated by more studies and longer follow-up. ConclusionsThere is a risk of worsening existing GERD or promoting new GERD after LSG surgery. The LSG in combination with fundoplication is safe and feasible, which not only makes up for the adverse effects of LSG only on GERD after surgery, but also achieves the same similar effect of weight loss as LSG, providing a new choice for obese patients with GERD.
