Objective:To analyze the relationship between the optimal surgical margin value and clinical prognosis of transoral robotic surgery（TORS） in treating human papillomavirus（HPV） -positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. Methods:A single-center, prospective, observational cohort study was conducted, enrolling patients with early and moderated stage（≤T3 stage） oropharyngeal carcinoma undergoing TORS between July 2020 and April 2024. The proposed optimal surgical margin cutoff value for TORS was set as 2 mm. The primary objectives were to evaluate the optimal clear margin for TORS and its association with overall survival（OS） and progression-free survival（PFS）. Logistic regression was used to analyze correlations between surgical margins and clinical variables, while Cox regression models assessed the impact of surgical margins on OS and PFS. Results:A total of 90 patients（60 males, 66.7%） were included, all had squamous cell carcinoma, with a mean age of 58.0±9.0 years（range: 39-84 years） old. The 1, 2 and 3-year OS rates were 92.3%, 89.9% and 85.0%, respectively, while the 1, 2 and 3-year PFS rates were all 90.1%. For surgical margins ≤2 mm, the 1, 2 and 3-year OS rates were 80.8%, 69.3% and 69.3%, respectively, and PFS rates were 77.9% across three time points. For surgical margins>2 mm, the 1, 2 and 3-year OS rates were 96.5%, 96.5% and 90.6%, respectively, with PFS rates of 94.6%. Logistic regression showed no correlation between surgical margins and tumor type, T/N stage, smoking, alcohol use, or gender（P>0.05）. Cox analysis identified surgical margins>2 mm as a significant factor improving PFS（HR=0.14, 95%CI 0.02-0.90, P=0.038）. Conclusion:This systematic analysis suggests setting a 2 mm and longer as clear surgical margin for TORS. Margins>2 mm are associated with superior postoperative PFS rate and prolonged PFS time in HPV-positive oropharyngeal carcinoma patients.

Objective To investigate the associations between physical health status,refraction and ocular biometrics in school-age children,and further clarify the relation of eyes'refractive status to physical growth and development,so as to provide scientific evidences for myopia prevention and con-trol.Methods A total of 1718 children(977 boys and 741 girls)aged 8-12 years were enrolled in this study.They were collected uncorrected visual acuity,refraction and ocular biometrics,including spherical equivalent,cylindrical equivalent,axial length(AL),corneal refraction(K1,K2)and anteri-or chamber depth(ACD),as well as the AL/CR ratio and spherical equivalent refraction(SER).Moreover,their height,weight and physical fitness level were measured,including speed,strength,flexibility,agility and aerobic endurance.Then all data were analyzed using the Pearson correlation,One-way ANOVA and multiple linear regression model.Results The overall prevalence of myopia was 43.83%,which was higher in girls than in boys(46.96%vs.41.45%).Moreover,the height and weight of school-age children were negatively correlated with SER(P<0.01),but positively correlated with AL,ACD and AL/CR(P<0.01).After controlling the age and gender variables in the multiple linear regression model,it was found that for 10-cm increase in height,SER decreased by 0.013 D(P<0.01),AL extended by 0.022 mm(P<0.01),and ACD increased by 0.002 mm(P<0.05).In addi-tion,for 10-kg increase in the body weight,the AL would be 0.009 mm longer(P<0.05)and ACD 0.002 mm deeper(P<0.05).Moreover,the speed,strength and agility were negatively correlated with SER(P<0.01,P<0.05),but positively correlated with AL,ACD and AL/CR(P<0.01,P<0.05).The maximal oxygen uptake level was positively correlated with SER(P<0.01),and negatively correlated with AL,ACD and AL/CR(P<0.01,P<0.05).After controlling the age and gender variables in the multiple linear regression model,it was found that the children with worse speed quality had shorter AL(-0.043 D,P<0.05).Meanwhile,the better agility was accompanied by the lower SER(-0.003 D,P<0.01),longer AL(+0.002 mm,P<0.05),lighter ACD(+4.812e-4 mm,P<0.05),and higher AL/CR(+2.446e-4,P<0.05).Conclusion With variables of age and gender controlled,the height,weight,and the speed and agility quality are highly associated with eyes'refractive status among chil-dren aged 8-12 years old.It is suggested that the human body may have a coordination mechanism to regulate the development of the body stature,physical fitness and ocular biometrics in the early child-hood,which should be considered in their myopia prevention and control.

Objective To investigate the incidence and adverse prognosis of late onset sepsis(LOS)in neonates in neonatal intensive care unit(NICU).Methods A retrospective study was conducted to collect and analyze the peri-natal condition,underlying diseases,invasive procedures,and adverse prognosis of neonates in NICU of a regional maternal and child healthcare hospital from 2019 to 2023.According to whether LOS occurred during hospitaliza-tion,neonates were divided into LOS group and non-LOS group.The LOS group was divided into 5 subgroups based on whether invasive procedures were performed:LOS plus umbilical vein catheter(UVC)group,LOS plus peripherally inserted central catheter(PICC)group,LOS plus sequential catheter group,LOS plus tracheal intuba-tion group,and LOS plus lumbar puncture group,the relationship between LOS and adverse prognosis was ana-lyzed.Results Among 2 945 neonates in NICU,354(12.02％)developed LOS.Comparison between LOS groups and non-LOS group were as follows:in term of perinatal condition of neonates,there were statistically significant difference in weight,gestational age,and whether they were twins between the two groups(all P＜0.001);in term of underlying diseases,there were statistically significant differences in the number of cases of maternal gestational hypertension,neonatal asphyxia,neonatal congenital heart disease,neonatal ventricular dilation,neonatal pneumo-nia,neonatal hyperthyrotropinemia,and neonatal anemia,as well as five invasive procedures between the two groups(all P＜0.05).Compared with the non-LOS group,the incidences of retinopathy of prematurity(ROP),neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis(NNEC),bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD),and neonatal respiratory distress syndrome(NRDS)in LOS group were all higher(all P＜0.001).Regression analysis showed that compared with the non-LOS groups,the risk of ROP increased in the LOS group and its subgroups,with the LOS plus sequential catheter group having a 2.27-fold higher risk of ROP than non-LOS group;the risk of NNEC increased in the LOS group and its subgroups,with the LOS plus UVC group having an 8.29-fold higher risk of NNEC than the non-LOS group.Except for the LOS plus UVC group,the risk of BPD increased in the LOS group and other subgroups,with the LOS plus PICC group and LOS plus sequential catheter group having 4.68-and 4.64-fold higher risk of BPD than the non-LOS group,respectively;the risk of NRDS in the LOS plus PICC group was 6.84-fold higher than the non-LOS group(all P＜0.05).The top three pathogens causing LOS were coagulase negative Staphylococcus,Klebsiella pneumoniae,and Escherichia coli.Conclusion LOS can significantly increase the risks of ROP,NNEC,BPD,and NRDS.LOS plus invasive procedures can further increase the risk of adverse prognosis.

Objective To evaluate the clinical utility of the f-wave to QRS complex amplitude ratio(f/R ratio)in intracardiac electrogram(IC-ECG)-guided positioning of peripherally inserted central catheter(PICC)tips in patients with atrial fibrillation(AF),providing evidence to enhance clinical practice.Methods This study employed a conve-nience sampling method to enroll eligible AF patients admitted to a tertiary hospital in Suzhou from July 2023 to July 2024.During PICC placement,IC-ECG was utilized to monitor f-wave and QRS complex amplitude variations.Following successful catheterization,the f/R ratio was measured,and chest X-ray was performed to confirm the catheter tip position.The accuracy of PICC tip positioning across different f/R ratio ranges was analyzed,and the incidence of arrhythmias was recorded.A receiver operating characteristic curve was constructed to assess the diag-nostic performance of the f/R ratio in PICC tip localization.Results A total of 68 AF patients were included,with f/R ratios ranging from 20.63％to 91.24％.PICC tip positioning accuracy varied significantly across different f/R ratio ranges(P=0.006).The area under the ROC curve(AUC)for f/R ratio in PICC tip positioning was 0.784(P=0.009),with a maximum Youden index of 0.567,an optimal diagnostic threshold of 40.00％,a sensitivity of 81.7％,a speci-ficity of 75.0％,a positive predictive value of 96.1％,and a negative predictive value of 35.3％.No arrhythmias other than AF occurred during the procedure.Conclusion The f/R ratio provides reliable and safe guidance for PICC tip positioning in AF patients.An f/R ratio ≥40％is associated with higher accuracy in identifying the optimal catheter tip position.

Dihydromyricetin is a flavonoid mainly found in Ampelopsis grossedentata,which has attracted extensive attention due to its diverse pharmacological activities in recent years.However,its low oral bioavailability limits its clinical application.In this article,the pharmacological effects of dihydromyricetin on antibacterial,antiviral,antitumor,inhibition of neuroinflammation,antioxidant,and hepatorenal protection were reviewed.By summarizing,it can be seen that the pharmacological effects of dihydromyricetin are related to the traditional efficacy of Ampelopsis grossedentata.Scholars have used new preparation technologie to design dosage forms and new drug delivery systems such as liposomes,nanoparticles,microemulsions and nanoemulsions,microcapsules and nanocapsules,which can improve the bioavailability and efficacy of dihydromyricetin.Which can provide reference for the development of new drugs.

Objective:To observe the efficacy of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) when it is combined with warm moxibustion scraping therapy (WMST) in the treatment of myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) in the lumbodorsal region.Methods:A total of 112 patients with lumbodorsal MPS were randomly divided into a control group and a combination group, each of 56. All of the patients received TEAS, but those in the combined group additionally received warm moxibustion scraping therapy. The treatment consisted of 3 consecutive courses, with each course lasting 2 weeks and a 1-day rest interval between courses. Before the treatment and after completing 3 courses (post-treatment), the therapeutic effects were evaluated using traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome scores, visual analogue scale (VAS) ratings for pain, a pain rating index (PRI), present pain intensity (PPI), the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI).Results:After the treatment, significant decreases were observed in the average TCM syndrome, VAS pain, PRI, PPI, ODI and PSQI scores of both groups, but the combination group′s averages were all significantly lower than those of the control group. Efficacy among the combination group (92.9%) was significantly higher than among the controls (62.5%).Conclusions:Supplementing TEAS with warm moxibustion scraping can more effectively relieve lumbodorsal pain and dysfunction among patients with lumbodorsal MPS, and improve their sleep quality.
