This paper introduces the development and application of health-related quality of life (HRQOL) scales in research on coronary heart disease (CHD). Currently, the scales for CHD patients have been more systematically developed and widely used in foreign countries, while domestically in China, they are developed successfully but problematically; research in this field has started later and the scales introduced are limited and not suitable for the entire range of domestic CHD patients. Thus, this paper introduces 26 HRQOL scales in research on CHD, including five generic scales, ten disease-specific scales from abroad and eleven scales originating from China. With the deficiency of HRQOL scales, especially that in traditional Chinese medicine and specific scales, this paper analyzes and summarizes the problems existing in development of scales. The authors also provide solutions in order to help the development and application of scales in further studies.

Objective:Under the new development of breast cancer diagnosis and treatment technology, the relationship between nuclear morphology and different clinicopathological characteristics of breast cancer was analyzed, and its clinical significance was evaluated.Methods:In TCGA (the Cancer Genome Atlas) BRCA (fast invasive carcinoma) data, 443 patients were divided into three groups according to the nuclear morphology: ⑴ the nuclear size and morphology were basically normal; ⑵ the nuclear size slightly increased; ⑶ the nuclear size slightly increased or the difference was obvious. Practical clinicopathological features including American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) tumor stage, AJCC tumor score, AJCC lymph node score, estrogen receptor (ER) status by immunohistochemistry (IHC), progesterone receptor (PR) status by IHC, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) status by IHC and PAM50 subtypes are compared among groups defined by nuclear size. And nuclear size related morphometric parameters, including nuclear area, perimeter, roundness, width and height, are subsequently retrieved in 132 samples and analyzed for their relationship with clinicopathological features.Results:The nuclear size in breast cancer tissues was significantly correlated with survival, especially disease-free survival ( P=0.039). Other clinicopathological parameters, except AJCC T stage ( P=0.006), the immunohistochemical results of molecular markers ER ( P=0.002), PR ( P=0.047) and molecular typing of PAM50 ( P<0.001) were not significantly associated with the nuclear size of cancer tissues. The area, perimeter, roundness, length and width were correlated with each other; the roundness was the most stable parameter and negatively correlated with other parameters; the perimeter was the most sensitive index for identification, while roundness was not. Conclusions:Our research indicates that nuclear size, especially nuclear morphometric parameter, perimeter, provides a valuable clinicopathological index, which is useful not only in differentiating breast cancer cells from normal cells, but in differentiating molecular subtypes.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy and safety analysis of a novel laser localization technology assisted percutaneous puncture of trigeminal nerve microsphere capsule compression surgery for the treatment of primary trigeminal neuralgia.Methods:A retrospective selection was conducted on 63 patients with primary trigeminal neuralgia who underwent percutaneous puncture of the trigeminal nerve microsphere capsule compression surgery at the First Hospital of Hunan University of Chinese Medicine from January 2020 to December 2021. According to different surgical methods, they were divided into a new laser localization assisted puncture group (observation group) of 32 cases and a traditional barehanded localization puncture group (control group) of 31 cases. An analysis was conducted on the surgical time, puncture time, puncture frequency, intraoperative exposure to radiation, number of cases of poor balloon formation, and clinical efficacy within 6 months after surgery for two groups of patients. The prognosis of the patients was followed up at 6 months after surgery.Results:The surgical time, puncture time, puncture frequency, and intraoperative exposure of the observation group were all less than those of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference ( P>0.05) in the number of cases of poor balloon angioplasty between the observation group and the control group, as well as the pain score grading of the Barlow Neurological Institute (BNI) on the first day after surgery. Within 6 months after surgery, there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of facial numbness, diplopia, masseter weakness, perilabial herpes, and recurrent pain between the two groups of patients (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Laser positioning technology can assist in precise puncture of the foramen ovale and accurate placement of balloons based on surgical experience, which helps to improve surgical safety, reduce postoperative complications and intraoperative radiation dose, and achieve satisfactory short-term follow-up results.
