This package is based on the secondary developing of the nonlinear control system simulation language SIMNON. Being constructed with modularization programming, the package can be used for general purposes conveuieutly and has strong graphic functions. The design principle for this simulation package is discussed in datail in this peper; and an application example (DSC controlled AC drive system with RDCLI) as well as its simulation results are given.展开更多

However, little is known about the efficacy of staple-line reinforcement by barbed suture for preventing AL.AIM To evaluate the efficacy of staple-line reinforcement using barbed suture for preventing AL in laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer.METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the clinical datum of 319 patients undergoing laparoscopic low anterior resection combined with double stapling technique between May 1, 2017 and January 31, 2021. All surgeries were performed by the same surgical team specializing in colorectal surgery. Patients were divided into two groups depending on whether they received reinforcing sutures. Patients’ baseline characteristics did not show any significant difference between the two groups. We analyzed patient-, tumor-, as well as surgery-related variables using univariate and multivariate logistic analyses.RESULTS There were 168 patients in the reinforcing suture group and 151 patients in the non-reinforcing suture group. AL occurred in 25 cases(7.8%). Its incidence was significantly higher in the non-reinforcing suture group than in the reinforcing suture group(4.8% vs 11.3%, P = 0.031). The multivariate analyses demonstrated that the tumor site, tumor size and presence of staple-line reinforcement were independent risk factors for AL. We divided these patients into two risk groups based on the combination of tumor site and tumor size. Patients without any risk factor were assigned to the low-risk group(n = 177), whereas those having one or two risk factors were assigned to the high-risk group(n = 142). In the high-risk group, the AL incidence considerably decreased in the reinforcing suture group compared with that in the non-reinforcing suture group(P = 0.038). Nonetheless, no significant difference was found in the low-risk group between the two groups.CONCLUSION Staple-line reinforcement by barbed suture may decrease the incidence of AL. A large-scale prospective randomized controlled trial is needed for evaluating the efficacy of staple-line reinforcement for preventing AL.展开更多
