Objective? To compare the effect of European Nutritional Risk Screening (NRS 2002) and Patient General Subjective Score (PG-SGA) in perioperative patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, and to provide evidence for clinical nutritional screening in perioperative patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Methods? Using convenience sampling method, 82 patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma who were admitted to the Department of Head and Neck Surgery of Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from October 2015 to December 2017 during perioperative period were selected as the study subjects. NRS 2002 and PG-SGA were used to longitudinally evaluate their nutritional status at admission, 1 day before operation, 2 days after operation, 1 week after operation and at discharge, respectively. The differences of nutritional status between the two assessment tools during perioperative period were compared. Results? The trend of malnutrition risk in NRS 2002 was similar to that in PG-SAG dynamic assessment from admission to discharge, all of which were in the form of "V". The positive rate of malnutrition in PG-SAG assessment was higher than that in NRS 2002, and the difference was statistically significant (P< 0.01). Conclusions? NRS 2002 and PG-SGA are both suitable for nutritional risk screening of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma patients, but the positive rate of PG-SGA is higher, which can effectively screen and evaluate the nutritional status of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma patients, and is conducive to timely providing nutritional intervention and treatment for patients.

Objective To investigate the changes of macular microcirculation and aqueous humor cytokine expression in patients with diabetic macular edema(DME)after anti-vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)treatment,and analyze the relationship with efficacy.Methods A total of 62 patients(91 eyes)with DME who were treated in the First Hospital of Nanchang from October 2021 to August 2023 were selected and treated with intravitreal injection of conbercept.According to the reduction of central macular thickness(CMT),they were divided into efficacy significant group(CMT reduction≥100μm,59 eyes)and non-efficacy significant group(CMT reduction<100μm or increase,32 eyes).The changes of CMT,vessel density(VD)of superficial capillary plexus(SCP),fovea avascular area(FAZ),VEGF,interleuki(IL)-6,IL-8,and IL-10 after anti-VEGF treatment were analyzed.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of each index.Results Before treatment,the levels of VEGF and IL-10 in aqueous humor in efficacy significant group were significantly higher than those in non-efficacy significant group,and the level of IL-8 was significantly lower than that in non-efficacy significant group(P<0.05).After treatment,levels of VEGF,IL-6,IL-8 and IL-10 in aqueous humor in both groups were significantly lower than before treatment(P<0.05).The levels of VEGF,IL-6 and IL-8 in aqueous humor in efficacy significant group were significantly lower than those in non-efficacy significant group,and the level of IL-10 was significantly higher than that in non-efficacy significant group(P<0.05).Before and after anti-VEGF treatment,there were no significant changes in FAZ area and SCP-VD in both groups(P>0.05).Correlation analysis showed that VEGF(r=0.571,P<0.001)and IL-10(r=0.382,P=0.008)in aqueous humor at baseline were positively correlated with CMT reduction,IL-8 was negatively correlated with CMT reduction(r=-0.689,P<0.001).IL-6,FAZ area and SCP-VD were not correlated with CMT reduction(P>0.05).Cytokine levels were not correlated with FAZ area and SCP-VD(P>0.05).ROC curve results showed that area under the curve of IL-8,VEGF and IL-10 at baseline predicting anti-VEGF efficacy were 0.825,0.813 and 0.676,respectively.Conclusion The levels of VEGF,IL-8,and IL-10 in aqueous humor at baseline in DME patients were correlated with anti-VEGF efficacy and could predict the efficacy of anti-VEGF.
