Abstract: Background: Submucosal tumors of the digestive tract are common diseases, which are difficult to diagnose and treat because of their occurrence in the digestive tract. In the past, follow-up observation or surgical operation were usually adopted for SMT, but the surgical operation had many disadvantages such as large trauma, many complications and long postoperative recovery time. In contrast, endoscopic therapy is characterized by safety. The clinical features of endoscopic mass resection remain unclear. Objective: To analyze the clinical features of submucosal masses of digestive tract. The pathological types and distribution of the tumor and the safety of endoscopic surgery were also discussedMethods: We analyzed the clinical data of 108 patients with submucosal tumors of the digestive tract by endoscopic surgery in our hospital. Results: The submucosal masses of the digestive tract were mainly leiomyoma and gastrointestinal stromal tumor, mostly benign lesions, mainly distributed in the mucosa and muscularis propria, and there was no difference between the sexes. The operative complication rate of endoscopic surgery for submucosal masses of digestive tract is low. Conclusion: c of small gastric submucosal tumors is safe enough and effective in diagnosis and treatment. EMR and ERE are still commonly used endoscopic surgery methods at present.

Abstract: Background: The lower number of platelet (PLT) has been found to be a risk factor in patients with type A acute aortic dissection (AAD) In admission. However prognostic implications of the PLT count in the type B AAD patients has not yet been elucidated. Methods: We consecutively enrolled 81 patients which confirmed with type B. Patients were divided into survival group and death group and PLT count were measured on admission. Univariate analysis and multiple logistic regression analysis were used to identify the predictors of in-hospital mortality. Results: Compared with the survival group, the death group PLT count was significant lower (172.07±57.38×109/L vs. 227.13±75.97×109/L, P<0.05). The results showed PLT count (HR: 0.993, 95% CI: 0.987-0.997, P=0.043), the area under the ROC curve of PLT count was 0.717, the best cut off was 179.5 × 109 / L, the sensitivity was 72.5%, the specificity was 63.3%, P=0.001; Log Rang test results showed that there was a statistically significant difference in cumulative survival between the high PLT count group (>179.5 × 109 / L) and the low PLT count group (<179.5 × 109 / L) (P=0.001). Conclusions: Low PLT on admission count is one of the specific dead risk factors for type B AAD in-hospital patients.
