This study aimed to investigate the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of transparent cap-assisted endoscopic hot snare resection for the treatment of HAP. Methods: Endoscopic and clinical data of patients treated with transparent cap-assisted endoscopic hot snare resection for HAP at the Department of Gastroenterology, First Affiliated Hospital of Yangtze University from June 2019 to June 2021, were collected and retrospectively analyzed. Results: A total of 56 patients with HAP were treated with transparent cap-assisted endoscopic hot snare resection, including 53 patients (94.6%) with single hypertrophic anal papillae and 3 patients (5.4%) with multiple HAP;51 patients (83.6%) with basal diameter <5 mm and 10 patients (16.4%) with basal diameter ≥5 mm. The procedures that were performed together with transparent cap-assisted endoscopic hot snare resection for HAP treatment included total colon examination in 56 cases (100%), endoscopic polypectomy in 20 cases (35.7%), endoscopic sclerotherapy for hemorrhoids in 29 cases (51.8%), and endoscopic rubber band ligation for hemorrhoids in 11 cases (19.6%). No patient experienced bleeding during or after HAP with transparent cap-assisted endoscopic hot snare resection. Pain level was evaluated by the visual analog score (VAS) method. 52 patients (92.9%) did not have pain and 4 patients (7.1%) had mild pain 3 days after surgery. At a postoperative follow-up of 2 to 18 months, patient satisfaction with transparent cap-assisted endoscopic hot snare resection for HAP treatment was 100% (56/56). Conclusion: Transparent cap-assisted endoscopic hot snare resection is safe and effective for treating HAP.展开更多

Methods: A total of 886 patients who underwent painless endoscopic gastric polyp resection in the Department of Gastroenterology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Yangtze University, from January 2020 to December 2021, were selected as the study subjects. According to the random number table method, they were divided into an experimental group and a control group, with 443 cases in each group. Patients in the control group were subjected to routine fasting and water restriction for 8 hours before surgery, and routine fasting for 24 hours after surgery. Short-term intravenous nutrition support was provided through fluid supplementation, and finger blood glucose levels were monitored at 1 hour, 4 hours, and 8 hours after completion of intravenous infusion, or when symptoms such as palpitations and cold sweats occurred. The experimental group received oral administration of 5% glucose solution (500 ml) 2 hours before surgery based on the procedures of the control group. The incidence of preoperative discomfort (hunger, thirst, and fatigue), residual gastric fluid volume, and postoperative hypoglycemia were compared between the two groups. Results: The incidence of postoperative blood glucose Conclusion: Based on the study population, oral glucose combined with short-term intravenous nutrition can effectively prevent the incidence of hypoglycemia in patients undergoing painless endoscopic gastric polyp resection. However, due to the limitations of a single-center study and a small number of cases, its feasibility needs to be further validated with more data from multi-center and large-sample cases.展开更多

Methods: 860 patients who underwent endoscopic colorectal polypectomy for colorectal polyps in the Department of Gastroenterology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Yangtze University from January 2020 to December 2021 were selected for the study. The patients were divided into experimental and control groups according to the random number table method, with 430 patients in each group. In the control group, 3 L of polyethylene glycol electrolyte dispersion was used for preoperative intestinal preparation and postoperative fasting was performed routinely for 24 h. Short-term intravenous nutrition support was provided by rehydration, and finger blood glucose was monitored at 1, 4, and 8 h after intravenous infusion or when there were symptoms such as panic and cold sweat;in the experimental group, oral glucose intervention was implemented on the basis of the control group. The incidence of postoperative hypoglycemia, quality of bowel preparation, and tolerance of patients during bowel preparation were compared between the 2 groups. Results: The incidence of postoperative blood glucose Conclusion: Based on the present study population, oral glucose combined with short-term intravenous nutrition can effectively prevent the incidence of hypoglycemia in patients after endoscopic colorectal polypectomy;however, this was limited to a single-center study and the number of cases was small.展开更多

Phosgene is extremely toxic and large amounts of corrosive HC1 are produced as a side product. In the view of environment protection and society safety, development of non-phosgene processes for isocyanates production will be highly desired, and this should be one of the most important missions for green chemistry and catalysis. In this review, efforts for development of non-phosgene method for syntheses of isocyanates, i.e., catalytic syntheses of N-substituted carbamates from nitro- or amino-compounds with CO, dimethyl carbonate (DMC), urea and even CO2 etc. as carbonyl sources, then thermal cracking of N-substituted carbamates to afford corresponding i socyanates, are summarized, and a brief prospect for non-phosgene syntheses of isocyanates is also addressed.展开更多
