Objective:To investigate the factors influencing the occurrence of esophageal stenosis after endoscopic radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for total or near total circumferential early esophageal cancer and precancerous lesions.Methods:Between November 2018 and April 2022, 37 patients who underwent RFA for early esophageal squamous cell carcinoma or intraepithelial neoplasia at Zhongda Hospital, Southeast University were included in a case-control study, and were divided into two groups based on the occurrence of postoperative esophageal stricture: the group with postoperative esophageal stenosis (case group, n=15) and the group without postoperative esophageal stenosis (control group, n=22). The differences in general information, endoscopic findings, and surgical procedures between the two groups were analyzed. Results:There was no significant difference in gender ( P=0.708), age ( t=1.106, P=0.413), smoking or drinking ( P=0.329), preoperative pathology ( P=0.194), circumferential situation ( P=1.000), Paris type ( P=0.379), lesion length ( t=-0.825, P=0.927), ablation length ( t=-0.134, P=0.723), ablation times ( P=0.306), or interval between each ablation ( P=0.500) between the two groups; however, there was significant difference in invasion depth between the two groups ( P=0.021). Conclusion:For total or near total circumferential early esophageal cancer and precancerous lesions, the depth of lesion infiltration may affect the occurrence of esophageal stenosis after RFA. The likelihood of esophageal stenosis may rise with increased infiltration depth, suggesting a need for further research to validate these findings.

Objective:To evaluate the application value of preconceptional laparoscopic cervical cerclage(LCC)in improving the pregnancy outcomes with cervical incompetence(CIC).Methods:Clinical data of 112 pa-tients with CIC who underwent preconceptional LCC in The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from July 1,2014 to May 31,2023 were retrospectively reviewed.The surgical indications of preconceptional LCC in-cluded:failed transvaginal cervical cerclage(TCC)(42 patients),history of cervical surgery+failed TCC(7 pa-tients),unsuitability for TCC(10 patients)and strong request from patients(53 patients).The surgical situation and pregnancy outcome of preconceptional LCC were analyzed,and the gestational age of delivery before and af-ter preconceptional LCC surgery and different surgical indications were compared in postoperative delivery pa-tients who underwent preconceptional LCC.Results:The median operation time of 112 patients was 65.5 min,the median intraoperative blood loss was 10.0 ml,and there were no intraoperative complications.The postopera-tive hospital stay was 2.9±0.6 d.108 cases were followed up after surgery,with 77 cases of pregnancy and de-livery after LCC.A total of 205 deliveries were made before surgery,and 81 deliveries were made after surgery.Successful postoperative deliveries(delivery after 28 weeks)were 78(96.3% ),with an average gestational age 37.4±1.7 weeks.The preterm birth rate was 16.7%,term birth rate was 83.3% .The delivery rate at≥28 weeks after preconceptional LCC was significantly higher than the previous delivery rate of pre pregnancy LCC(96.3% vs.10.7%,P<0.05),and the gestational age was significantly prolonged(36.4±5.5 weeks vs.19.8±7.5 weeks,P<0.05).The postoperative delivery gestational week of preconceptional LCC with different surgical indi-cations was significantly later than the previous delivery gestational week of pre pregnancy LCC(P<0.05),ex-cept for the indication of unsuitability for TCC(P>0.05).Conclusions:Preconceptional LCC surgery is highly safe and can effectively prolong the gestational age and improve pregnancy outcomes in patients with CIC.It can be an effective treatment method for patients with a history of TCC failure.

With the increasing emphasis on the bio-psycho-social medical model, significant progress has been made in patient-reported outcomes. Now, through a comprehensive analysis and synthesis of literature within the field, this study explores the advancements in the application of patient-reported outcomes in clinical research on lymphoma. The intention is to provide valuable references for future related studies.
