Objective To assess safety and feasibility of laparoscopic gastrectomy in the elderly with gastric cancer. Methods From January 2010 to September 2014, 146 elderly (age ≥65 years old) patients with gastric cancer underwent radical operations in the Department of General Surgery, Guangdong Academy of Medical Sciences and Guangdong General Hospital were collected, then were divided into a laparoscopy-assisted radical gastrectomy (LAG group, n=40) and an open radical gastrectomy (OG group, n=106) according to the operative mode. The differences of intraoperative and postoperative situation, and the postoperative complications were analyzed between the LAG group and the OG group. Results ① The age, gender, body mass index, albumin, ASA grade, tumor location, differentiation degree, TNM stage, radical gastrectomy, and digestive tract anastomosis had no significant differences between the LAG group and the OG group (P>0.05). ② None of the patients died during the operative period and there was no significant difference in the mean number of retrieved lymph nodes between these two groups (P>0.05). In the aspects of the intraoperative blood loss, the first flatus time or the first feeding time, and the postoperative hospitalization stay in the LAG group were significantly less than those in the OG group (P<0.05). For the operative time, the OG group showed a distinctive advantage with a significantdifference than the LAG group (P<0.05). ③ The rate of postoperative complication in the LAG group and OG group was 10.0% (4/40) and 15.1% (16/106) respectively, and the difference was not significant (χ2=0.64, P=0.591), the grade of the Clavien-Dindo complications had no significant difference (χ2=0.63, P=0.592). ④ None of the patients died following operation in the LAG group and one case died in the OG group because of the respiratory and circulatory failure caused by the pulmonary embolism. Conclusion Preliminary results of limited cases in this study show that LAG in the elderly patients with gastric cancer could reduce intraoperative blood loss, shorten the first flatus time or the first feeding time, and postoperative hospitalization stay, could obtain same radical effect without increasing incidence of postoperative complications as compared with OG, so it is safety and feasible.
Objective To verifying the characteristics of optical coherence tomography(OCT) in exudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Methods The patients being investigated in this series included 16 cases (19 eyes) of exudative age-related macular degeneration diagnosed by FFA and OCT examinations, among them 4 cases (6 eyes) were examined with ICGA. The color photographs of ocular fundi, FFA, ICGA and OCT were investigated by contrasting each other. Results As compared with the FFA and ICGA examinations, the characteristic findings found in OCT in patients with exudative AMD in this series were as the following:①serous detachment of neurosensory epithelium in 11 eyes,②retinal hemorrhage in 2 eyes,③serous detachment of retinal pigment epithelium in 5 eyes,④hemorrhagic detachment of retinal pigment epithelium in 10 eyes,⑤disciform scar in 4 eyes,⑥fibrovascular pigment epithelial detachment and occult CNV in 12 eyes. Conclusion OCT can supply a comprehensive survey of exudative AMD, in making the diagnosis as an important complementary examination of FFA and ICGA. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,2000,16:220-223)
Objective To investigate the clinical therapeutic effect of the ulnar neurolysis and nerve anterior transposition with an immediate range of motionfor the cubital tunnel syndrome in the aged. Methods Forty-three patients (24males and 19 females, aged 60-81 years, averaged 67) admitted for the cubital tunnel syndrome from January 1999 to December 2004 were randomly divided into 2groups: Group A (n=20) and Group B (n=23), with an illness course of 2-10 months. All the patients underwent the ulnar neurolysis and the nerve anterior transposition. After operation the patients’ elbows in group A were immobilized with the plaster slab for an external fixation for 3 weeks; the patients’ elbows in group B did not use the external fixation, but began an immediate range of motion on the 2nd day after operation. The Bishop scoring system was used to evaluate the patients’ functional recovery in the 2 groups. Results The follow-up for 1-5 years showed that the ulnar nerve function of all the patients were improved but no significant differences were found between the 2 groups (P＞0.05). The patients in Group A returned to daily activities or work at 45.2±5.1 days, but the patients in Group B required 15.5±3.8 days, with a significant difference between the 2 groups (P＜0.05). According to Bishop scoring system, the resutls were excellent in 14 cases, good in 4 cases, fair in 1 case and poor in 1 case in Group A, and 16, 4, 2 and 1 respectively in Group B. There was no significant difference between the two groups(P＞0.05). Conclusion The ulnar neurolysis and nerve anterior transposition with an immediate range of motion for the cubital tunnel syndrome can promote the ulnar function recovery of the oldaged patients. They can return to their daily activities or work at a more rapid speed when their elbows are mobilized immediately after operation.
ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical features and strategy of diagnosis and treatment of the abdominal trauma in elder people. MethodsClinical data of 68 elderly patients with abdominal trauma were analyzed retrospectively.ResultsDiagnosis in 35 of 68 cases were confirmed within 12 hours after trauma (51.5%). Fiftyeight cases in this group were treated surgically and 10 cases with nonsurgical treament.There were 7 death, the overall mortality was 10.3%. The cause of death was septic shock and multiple organ systemic failure. ConclusionThe elder patient with abdominal trauma has its speciality in clinical and pathophysiological characteristics and is less tolerant to trauma, which easily leads to misdiagnosis or maldiagnosis. The principle of treatment is to choose positive surgery, to streng then the perioperative management, to protect the function of each important organ, and to prevent the occurrence of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome.

Objective To systematically review the effect of different nutrient interventions on the physical function of elderly people with frailty through network meta-analysis. Methods The PubMed, Cochrane Library, EMbase and Web of Science were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials of different nutrient interventions on physical function of the elderly with frailty, from database inception to June 30, 2022. Two reviewers independently screened the literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Network meta-analysis was then performed using ADDIS 1.16.8, GeMTC 14.3, and Stata 15.0 software. Results A total of 13 studies involving 1 144 patients were included. There was no statistically significant difference in handgrip strength, time up to go test, gait speed, and short physical performance battery (SPPB) among different nutrient interventions. Significant differences were not found in vitamin D+ whey protein (VDWP) vs. placebo and Leu vs. placebo in handgrip strength, or VDWP vs. placebo in SPPB. The probability ranking diagram showed that the most effective of handgrip strength, time up to go test, gait speed, and SPPB were milk protein concentrate (MPC80), L-carnitime (L-Car), leucine (Leu), and MPC80, respectively. Conclusion The current evidence suggests that nutritional intervention did not significantly improve physical function in the frail elderly. MPC80, Leu, L-Car, and VDVEWP may play a role in improving the physical function of frail elderly people. Nutritional support programs that increase the above nutrients, combined with exercise training may become a better way to improve the physical function of frail elderly.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the association between overweight, obesity, abdominal obesity, and cognitive impairment (CI) in the elderly. MethodsThe CNKI, WanFang Data, VIP, CBM, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were electronically searched for studies on the relationship between overweight, obesity/abdominal obesity, and CI in the elderly from their inception to July 2024. Two researchers independently screened the literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Meta-analysis was performed using Stata 15.0 software. ResultsA total of 38 studies involving 1 783 087 subjects were included. Meta-analysis results showed that compared with normal-weight individuals, overweight (OR=0.96, 95%CI 0.91 to 1.02, P=0.201) was not statistically significant in the risk of CI in the elderly. Obesity (OR=1.14, 95%CI 1.02 to 1.28, P=0.03) and abdominal obesity (OR=1.16, 95%CI 1.11 to 1.21, P<0.001) may be risk factors for CI in the elderly. Subgroup analysis was conducted based on study type, BMI standards, cognitive diagnostic standards, national development level, abdominal obesity diagnostic standards, and follow-up time. Among the subgroups analyzing the correlation between overweight and CI in the elderly, follow-up time ≤5 years (OR=0.68, 95%CI 0.58 to 0.80) showed a lower proportion of CI compared to other follow-up periods. In the subgroups analyzing the correlation between obesity and CI in the elderly, follow-up time ≤5 years (OR=0.71, 95%CI 0.50 to 1.01) was not statistically significant compared to other follow-up periods. For abdominal obesity, a significant association with increased CI risk in the elderly was found only in the subgroup with a follow-up time of 5-10 years (OR=1.21, 95%CI 1.15 to 1.27), compared with other follow-up periods. ConclusionCurrent evidence suggests that obesity and abdominal obesity may increase the risk of CI in the elderly. Proper weight management is crucial for preventing and delaying the progression of CI in the elderly.
