Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma(HNSCC)is characterized by high recurrence or distant metastases rate and the prognosis is challenging.There is mounting evidence that tumor-infiltrating B cells(TIL-Bs)have a crucial,synergistic role in tumor control.However,little is known about the role TIL-Bs play in immune microenvironment and the way TIL-Bs affect the outcome of immune checkpoint blockade.Using single-cell RNA sequencing(scRNA-seq)data from the Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)database,the study identified distinct gene expression patterns in TIL-Bs.HNSCC samples were categorized into TIL-Bs inhibition and TIL-Bs activation groups using unsupervised clustering.This classification was further validated with TCGA HNSCC data,correlating with patient prognosis,immune cell infiltration,and response to immunotherapy.We found that the B cells activation group exhibited a better prognosis,higher immune cell infiltration,and distinct immune checkpoint levels,including elevated PD-L1.A prognostic model was also developed and validated,highlighting four genes as potential biomarkers for predicting survival outcomes in HNSCC patients.Overall,this study provides a foundational approach for B cells-based tumor classification in HNSCC,offering insights into targeted treatment and immunotherapy strategies.

Objective To explore the application of painless diagnosis and treatment technology in children's peripherally inserted central catheter(PICC)guided by ultrasound.Methods Totally 82 children who planned to undergo PICC in the hospital from January 2021 to January 2023 were selected and randomly divided into a control group and an observation group using a random number table method,with 41 cases in each group;The control group underwent conventional ultrasound guided PICC catheterization,while the observation group underwent painless diagnostic and therapeutic techniques using ultrasound guided PICC catheterization;Compare the success rate of catheterization,completion time of catheterization,degree of pain in the child pain[children's pain behavior scale(FLACC)],tolerance[Houpt behavior scale(HBS)],compliance[Frankl scale(FCS)],and family satisfaction between the two groups.Results The success rate of catheterization in the observation group was higher than that in the control group,and the catheterization time was shorter than that in the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.05).The FLACC score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group,while the HBS score and FCS score were higher than those of the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.05);The total satisfaction of family members in the observation group was higher than that in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion The use of painless diagnosis and treatment technology in ultrasound-guided PICC catheterization in children can improve the success rate of catheterization,shorten the catheterization time,reduce the degree of pain in children,enhance tolerance and compliance,and improve family satisfaction.
