OBJECTIVE Melatonin(MEL),a natural hormone with broad-spectrum anticancer effects,has been shown to potentiate the therapeutic outcomes of conventional chemotherapy.This study aims to investigate the combined effects of Doxorubicin(DOX)and MEL on head and neck squamous cell carcinoma(HNSCC)cell lines.METHODS The effects of MEL and DOX on cell proliferation in HNSCC cell lines TU686 and CAL-27 were assessed using the MTT assay.The effects of MEL and DOX on reactive oxygen species(ROS)expression levels in HNSCC cell lines were detected using DCFH-DA fluorescent probe.The effects of MEL and DOX on 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine(8-oxodG)levels in HNSCC cell lines were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).The effects of MEL and DOX on γ-H2AX protein levels in HNSCC cell lines were analyzed via Western blot.The effects of MEL and DOX on antioxidant enzymes levels in HNSCC cell lines were evaluated based on spectrophotometry.The effects of MEL and DOX on cell apoptosis in HNSCC cell lines were detected using an ELISA cell death detection kit.RESULTS The MTT assay revealed that MEL significantly enhanced the cytotoxic effects of DOX in HNSCC cell lines(tTU686=13.51,tCAL-27=17.580,all P<0.05).The combination of MEL and DOX markedly increased intracellular ROS levels(FTU686=89.984,FCAL-27=102.853,all P<0.05),while the expression of antioxidant enzymes was significantly reduced(TU686:the F values of CAT,GPx,GR,GST and SOD are 176.035,34.662,20.260,120.105 and 184.254,all P<0.05;CAL-27:the F values are 96.801,177.398,97.849,102.750 and 186.608 respectively,all P<0.05).Furthermore,this combination treatment significantly elevated the expression levels of 8-oxodG(FTU686=200.078,FCAL-27=663.982,all P<0.05)and γ-H2AX(FTU686=192.500,FCAL-27=285.700,all P<0.01)in HNSCC cell lines.Additionally,compared to single-agent treatment,MEL significantly enhanced DOX-induced apoptosis in HNSCC cell lines(FTU686=2718.253,FCAL-27=5185.334,all P<0.01).CONCLUSION The combination of MEL and DOX can enhance cytotoxic effects on HNSCC cell lines,increase intracellular ROS levels,induce DNA oxidative damage,and impair cellular antioxidant defense capacity,thereby effectively promoting HNSCC cell apoptosis.This combination may represent a novel therapeutic approach to improve clinical outcomes in HNSCC.

Objective:To compare the safety, number of lymph nodes removed, rate of lymph node metastasis, and prognosis between proximal gastrectomy (PG) and total gastrectomy (TG) in patients with Siewert types II and III adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction.Methods:In this retrospective cohort study, clinical data of patients diagnosed with adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction at Changzhi People's Hospital, affiliated with Changzhi Medical College, between December 2019 and November 2022, were collected. Patients who had received neoadjuvant therapy, had multiple malignant lesions in the stomach, had concomitant malignancies in other organs, had incomplete clinical data, or had been lost to follow-up were excluded. The study cohort comprised 308 patients, 99 in the PG group and 209 in the TG group. To reduce confounding bias, propensity score matching was performed, matching patients for age, sex, body mass index, tumor diameter, and pathological stage in a 1:1 ratio, resulting in 73 patients in each group. The primary outcomes assessed were operative details, number of lymph nodes dissected, rate of lymph node metastasis, postoperative complications, duration of hospital stay, and follow-up and survival outcomes.Results:The PG group had a significantly shorter median operative time than did the TG group (250 vs. 280 minutes, Z = -4.970, P<0.001), with fewer cases of intraoperative blood loss >100 mL (30.1%[22/73] vs. 46.6%[34/73], χ2=4.171, P=0.041), and a smaller number of lymph nodes removed (median 33 vs. 46, Z =-4.774, P<0.001); all of these differences are statistically significant (all P<0.05). Differences between the two groups in postoperative hospital stay and postoperative complications were not statistically significant (both P>0.05). Furthermore, no statistically significant differences were found between the PG and TG groups in the number of lymph nodes dissected or the lymph node metastasis rates at stations No. 1, No. 2, No. 3, No. 4sa, No. 4sb, and No. 7 (all P> 0.05). Among the 209 patients in the TG group, analysis of risk factors for metastasis to distal perigastric lymph nodes (No.4d, No.5, and No.6) showed that patients with tumor diameters ≤4 cm and T1–T3 stage disease had significantly lower rates of metastasis to these lymph nodes than did patients with tumor diameters >4 cm and/or T4 stage disease (0/78 vs. 12/131 [9.2%]); these differences are statistically significant ( P=0.014). The median duration of follow-up for the entire cohort was 26 months. The 3-year overall survival rates for the PG and TG groups were 62.5% and 63.3%, respectively; this difference is not statistically significant (χ 2=0.330, P = 0.565). Multivariate analysis showed that older age ( P = 0.035) and advanced pathological stage ( P = 0.018) were significant independent risk factors that affected overall survival in patients with Siewert type II and III adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction. Conclusions:PG is safe and feasible for patients with Siewert types II and III adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction. The number of lymph nodes dissected and metastasis status were similar in the TG and PG groups.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of endoscopic-assisted dual-plane augmentation mammoplasty via abdominoplasty incision.Methods:The clinical data of patients who underwent concurrent abdominoplasty and endoscopic breast augmentation utilizing a single incision at Xi’an International Medical Center Hospital from August 2023 to February 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. Through a lower abdominal incision, a 4 cm-wide subcutaneous tunnel was endoscopically dissected in a superolateral direction from the lateral aspect of the xiphoid region, traversing the abdominal wall flap dissection area. Initially, the medial-inferior origin of the pectoralis major muscle was exposed and excised. Subsequently, the posterior space of the pectoralis major muscle was dissected to create the prosthesis space, and the rib origin of the pectoralis major muscle was severed 1 cm above the inframammary fold to establish a type Ⅰ dual-plane configuration. Depending on the patients’ breast morphology, the glandular tissue could be dissected superiorly from the surface of the pectoralis major muscle to form a type Ⅱ or type Ⅲ dual-plane. The prosthesis was then implanted, and its position was adjusted accordingly. After the drainage was placed, the remaining operation of abdominoplasty was continued. Patients’ basic information, implant volume, postoperative extubation time, and postoperative complications were recorded. A Likert scale of five points was used to evaluate preoperative and postoperative breast satisfaction [ranges from 1 to 5 points, 1 = very dissatisfied, 2 = dissatisfied, 3 = average, 4 = satisfied, 5 = very satisfied, respectively, satisfaction rate calculated as: ( "very satisfied" + "satisfied" )cases/total cases×100%]. SPSS 25.0 statistical software was used for statistical analysis. Measurement data in accordance with normal distribution were expressed as Mean±SD, and satisfaction scores not in accordance with normal distribution were expressed as M( Q1, Q3), compared by Wilcoxon rank sum test before and after operation. The count data were expressed by cases (%). Results:A cohort of 25 patients were included in the study, with a mean age of (29.8±2.9) years and a mean body mass index (BMI) of (20.8±1.7) kg/m 2. The median volume of the implanted prosthesis was (290.4±40.8) ml (range: 250-410 ml), and the mean extubation time was (3.1±0.9) d (range: 2-6 d). The mean follow-up duration was (270.0±52.4) d (range: 188-356 d). All patients demonstrated full, symmetrical, and natural breast contours. No significant complications, such as infection, hematoma, abnormal breast morphology, implant displacement, or exposure, were observed. The patient satisfaction scores significantly improved from preoperative median 1 (1, 2) to postoperative median 5 (4, 5), and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-4.44, P<0.001). Patient satisfaction rate increased significantly from 12% (3/25) to 100% (25/25). Conclusion:Endoscopic-assisted dual-plane augmentation mammoplasty via abdominoplasty incision is a straightforward, feasible, safe, and effective procedure that eliminates breast scarring. Postoperative outcomes indicate an absence of serious complications, and patient satisfaction rates are high.

OBJECTIVES: To study the epidemiological characteristics of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection in hospitalized children with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in Hebei Province. METHODS: Hospitalized children with CAP who tested positive for RSV and were admitted to Hebei Children's Hospital from various cities and counties across Hebei Province between January 2019 and December 2023 were included in the study. Clinical data were collected and analyzed to assess epidemiological characteristics. RESULTS: The clinical data of 43 978 children with CAP were collected, with an overall RSV detection rate of 25.98%. The detection rate was higher during the implementation of non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) (30.60%) than in the non-NPIs period. Winter and spring were the primary epidemic seasons for RSV each year except in 2022. The detection rate in males (26.62%) was higher than in females (25.06%) (P<0.001). The highest detection rate (59.18%) was found in infants aged 29 days to <1 year. Single RSV infection was more common, with rhinovirus being the most frequent co-infection. CONCLUSIONS The overall RSV detection rate in Hebei Province is influenced by NPIs, being higher during their implementation. RSV predominantly circulates in winter and spring. The detection rate of RSV is higher in males and infants. RSV infection is primarily single, most often co-occurring with rhinovirus.
