Objective:To analyze the efficacy of unilateral arytenoid chondroplasty combined with minimally invasive mucosal flap plasty in the management bilateral vocal cord paralysis.Methods:A total of 66 patients with bilateral vocal cord paralysis hospitalized in the First Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2018 to December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed, among whom there were 8 males and 58 females, with ages ranging from 35 to 86 years old(mean age (57.8±11.6) years). All patients underwent suspension laryngoscopic CO 2 laser unilateral arytenoid chondroplasty and mucosal flap under general anesthesia. Postoperative follow-up period extended from 6 months to 6 years, with a median duration of 28 months. The study compared the degree of dyspnea and voice quality (subjective and objective evaluation) of the patients pre- and post-operatively, and analyzed the clinical differences between patients with and without preoperative or intraoperative tracheotomy, the extubation rate of tracheotomized patients, the recurrence rate, and the complication rate. Continuous variables conforming to normal distribution were tested by t-test and categorical variables by χ2 test,the Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used to analyze the improvement in dyspnea before and after surgery. Results:Compared with the preoperative period, 59 patients showed improvement in postoperative dyspnea ( U=161.5, P<0.01); there was no significant difference in voice disorder index 10, subjective auditory-perceptual assessment, and maximal vocalization time ( P>0.05), all of which remained within the relative normal range. Tracheotomy was performed in 32 out of 66 patients, with predominantly degree Ⅲ- dyspnea (46.9%, 15/32), including 26 patients with preoperative tracheotomy and 6 patients with intraoperative tracheotomy. Among the 34 patients who did not undergo tracheotomy, the majority presented with degree Ⅱ-dyspnea (82.4%, 28/34). All patients achieved successful extubation following surgery, with a mean median time to extubation of 1 month. Conclusions:The combination of unilateral arytenoid chondroplasty and minimally invasive mucosal flap plasty represents a refined and effective therapeutic approach for bilateral vocal cord paralysis. This minimally invasive technique has the potential to reduce the rate of tracheotomy.

OBJECTIVE To standardize the English translations of the current Chinese patent medicine （CPM） instructions in order to increase its English translation quality and improve its readability. METHODS In an attempt to standardize its English translation， 64 CPM instructions were collected as samples for translation projects in Trados， using its two core functions of translation memory and terminology， combined with pre-editing （PRE） and post-editing （PE） skills. RESULTS The results showed that translation projects had up to 21.65% perfect match. Based on translation project practice， it is proposed to use the free translation or transcreation plus transliteration method to translate product names of CPM， and apply two human-computer interaction translation modes：“ machine translation （MT）+computer-assisted translation （CAT）+PE” and “PRE+MT+CAT+PE”， which are adopted in the translation of weak literary sections and strong literary sections， respectively. CONCLUSIONS The application of CAT not only improves the translation quality and the translation mode， reduces the translation cost， and maintains the consistency and style of the translation， but also accumulates language assets for future use， providing a novel reference for translating traditional Chinese medicine literature.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have recently received much attention about the application of drug carriers due to their desirable properties such as nano-size, biocompatibility, and high stability. Herein, we demonstrate orange-derived extracellular vesicles (OEV) nanodrugs (DN@OEV) by modifying cRGD-targeted doxorubicin (DOX) nanoparticles (DN) onto the surface of OEV, enabling significantly enhancing tumor accumulation and penetration, thereby efficiently inhibiting the growth of ovarian cancer. The obtained DN@OEV enabled to inducement of greater transcytosis capability in ovarian cancer cells, which presented the average above 10-fold transcytosis effect compared with individual DN. It was found that DN@OEV could trigger receptor-mediated endocytosis to promote early endosome/recycling endosomes pathway for exocytosis and simultaneously reduce degradation in the early endosomes-late endosomes-lysosome pathway, thereby inducing the enhanced transcytosis. In particular, the zombie mouse model bearing orthotopic ovarian cancer further validated DN@OEV presented high accumulation and penetration in tumor tissue by the transcytosis process. Our study indicated the strategy in enhancing transcytosis has significant implications for improving the therapeutic efficacy of the drug delivery system.

【Objective】 To investigate the practice and benefit of national standardized management of type 2 diabetes in Yulin City. 【Methods】 We recruited the adult type 2 diabetes patients who sought medical help at our hospital from May 2020 to October 2022 as subjects. We collected their basic information (sex and age); measured height, weight, waist and hip circumference, and blood pressure; calculated body mass index (BMI); and detected blood glucose, c-peptide, HbA1c, biomarkers, urinary microalbumin, sensory nerve conduction velocity of lower limbs, ABI, and subcutaneous and visceral fat at the time of MMC recruited and the end of six months. T test and Mann-Whitney U rank sum test were used for measurement data and χ² test or Fisher’s exact probability method for counting data to analyze the data. 【Results】 After 6 months, the levels of fasting blood glucose, postprandial blood glucose, HbA1c, and visceral and subcutaneous fat in all the patients decreased, but the level of fasting c-peptide increased compared with the baseline (all P<0.05). Secondly, compared with the baseline, the control rate of HbA1c (35.21% vs. 13.71% ) and the comprehensive control rate (13.97% vs. 7.26% ) were both significantly increased at six months (P<0.05). Thirdly, after 6 months, the levels of fasting blood glucose, postprandial blood glucose, HbA1c, TG, TC, and UA were decreased more, while the fasting c-peptide and postprandial c-peptide were increased more in the patients of the HbA1c standard group (HbA1c<7% ) than those of the non-standard group. 【Conclusion】 The multiple benefits of blood glucose, blood lipid, uric acid and islet function can be achieved by taking type 2 diabetes patients into MMC. Meanwhile, the rates of HbA1c control and comprehensively reaching the standard are significantly increased. Therefore, MMC can explore a new way for the management of type 2 diabetic patients in this area.
