In order to reduce intraoperative recurrent laryngeal nerve injury,intraoperative neural monitoring(IONM)is widely used in thyroid-related surgery,especially in reoperations.However,some incidental injuries have also been observed during IONM.This article reported a case suffered skin thermal injury at the site of hypodermic needle electrode placement during IONM in Shanghai International Medical Center.Combining relevant adverse event information and analyzing the causes was essential to understand and prevent potential risks,and prioritize patient safety.

Pharmacy services in grassroots medical institutions provide professional pharmacy services for patients. This service not only expanded the scope of primary care delivery, but also meets the residents′need for appropriate medication. At present, the majority of grassroots medical institutions in China provide outpatient pharmacy services by means of pharmacy service alliance, and foreign grassroots medical institutions mainly provide pharmaceutical outpatient services with drug treatment management as the core for patients by granting pharmacists partial prescription rights.In recent years, pharmaceutical outpatient services in grassroots medical institutions had achieved good results in improving patient clinical outcomes, enhancing medication rationality, and enhancing patient compliance. However, there were many unresolved issues, including low public awareness, shortage of pharmaceutical talents, and imperfect guarantee systems. The author suggestted that efforts should be made to increase the publicity of pharmaceutical outpatient services, improve the training mechanism for pharmacists, strengthen cooperation between pharmacists and clinical physicians, include pharmacists in the contracted service team of family doctors, and improve various guarantee systems, in order to provide reference for promoting the sustainable development of pharmaceutical outpatient services in grassroots medical institutions in China.

Objective To explore the expression and clinical significance of lysine oxidase(Lox)in primary lesion of esophageal carcinoma(ESC A)and bone metastasis lesion based on bioin-formatics.Methods The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)and Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis(GEPIA)databases were used to screen for differentially expressed genes between ESCA and normal esophageal tissues.Follow-up information of patients with surgery for esophageal cancer in the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2016 to December 2020 were screened,and the clinical materials of patients diagnosed as bone metastasis during the follow-up period were collected.Western blot was used to verify the expression of Lox in ESCA and normal esophageal tis-sues;immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expression of Lox in human ESCA tissue and normal tissue;the impact of Lox expression on survival was explored by Kaplan-Meier curve and Cox regression.Results Through the analysis of ESCA data in GEPIA and TCGA databases,it was found that the expression of Lox in ESCA lesions was significantly higher than that in normal tissues(P<0.05);the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)and Gene Ontology(GO)enrichment analyses found that Lox may be involved in the information conduction of various signaling pathways;the Western blot result showed that the expression of Lox in cancer tissue was higher than that in adjacent normal tissue(P<0.05);the analysis of follow-up data found that patients with high expression of Lox were more likely to have multiple bone metastases;survival analysis revealed that patients with high Lox expression had significantly shorter bone metastasis free survival and o-verall survival compared to patients with low Lox expression(P<0.05);Cox regression found that Lox was an independent risk factor for prognosis of patients with esophageal cancer bone metastasis.Conclusion Lox is highly expressed in ESCA and significantly related to clinical prognosis,which can be used as an effective target for the diagnosis and treatment of ESCA.

Drug therapy is a common method to cure diseases and relieve symptoms.The value of patient-reported outcome(PRO)in evaluating the effect of drug therapy has been increasingly paid attention.The PRO scale is a standardized questionnaire,which can scientifically evaluate the experiences and subjective effects of drug use from a patient-centered perspective,and help patients and clinicians make more reasonable medication decisions.By reviewing and sorting out relevant global literature,this paper found that the content of the PRO scales relevant to drug therapy focused on five fields:"medication satisfaction""medication adherence""drug treatment burden""medication-related quality of life"and"adverse drug reactions".This paper described the basic information,measurement characteristics and application of common scales in recent years respectively,and summarized and analyzed the problems and enlightenment of scale development,aiming to provide theoretical reference for the selection,application and development of PRO scales.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic radical resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma at multiple centers in China.Methods:Between December 2015 and August 2019, the clinical data of 143 patients who underwent LRHC in Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College, Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University, Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University, Affiliated Tongji Hospital of Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Hunan Provincial People′s Hospital, the First Hospital Affiliated to Army Medical University, Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital Affiliated to Medical College of Zhejiang University, West China Hospital of Sichuan University, Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University and the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University were collected prospectively. There were 92 males and 51 females with age of (64±11) years (range: 53 to 72 years). Bismuth type: type I, 38 cases (26.6%), type Ⅱ, 19 cases (13.3%), type Ⅲa, 15 cases (10.5%), type Ⅲb, 28 cases (19.6%) and type Ⅳ, 43 cases (30.0%). The patients within the first 10 operation cases in each operation time (the first 10 patients in each operation team) were divided into group A (77 cases), and the patients after 10 cases in each operation time were classified as group B (66 cases); the cases with more than 10 cases in the center were further divided into group A 1 (116 cases), and the center with less than 10 cases was set as group A 2 (27 cases). T test or Wilcoxon test was used to compare the measurement data between groups, and the chi square test or Fisher exact probability method was used to compare the counting data between groups. Kaplan Meier curve was used for survival analysis. Results:All patients successfully completed laparoscopic procedure. The mean operation time was (421.3±153.4) minutes (range: 159 to 770 minutes), and the intraoperative blood loss was 100 to 1 500 ml (median was 300 ml) .Recent post-operative complications contained bile leakage, abdominal bleeding, abdominal infection, gastrointestinal bleeding, and delay gastric emptying, pulmonary infection, liver failure, et al.The post-operative hospital stay was (15.9±9.2) days. The operation time in group B was relatively reduced ( (429.5±190.7)minutes vs. (492.3±173.1)minutes, t=2.063, P=0.041) and the blood loss (465 ml vs. 200 ml) was also reduced ( Z=2.021, P=0.043) than that in group B. The incidence of postoperative biliary fistula and lung infection in patients in group A was significantly higher than that in group B (χ 2=4.341, 0.007; P=0.037, 0.047) .Compared with group A 2, the operation time in group A 1 was relatively reduced( (416.3±176.5)minutes vs. (498.1±190.4)minutes, t=2.136, P=0.034) , the incidence of bile leakage and abdominal cavity infection in group A 1 was lower than that in group A 2 (χ 2=7.537, 3.162; P=0.006, 0.046) . Kaplan Meier survival curve showed that the difference of short-term survival time between group A and group B was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The completion of laparoscopic hilar cholangiocarcinoma radical surgery is based on improved surgical skills, and proficiency in standardized operation procedures.It is feasible for laparoscopic radical resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma to well experienced surgeon with cases be strictly screened, but it is not recommended for widespread promotion at this exploratory stage.
