Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a common head and neck malignancy. Approximately 50% to 60% of patients with OSCC are diagnosed at a locally advanced stage (clinical staging III-IVa). Even with comprehensive and sequential treatment primarily based on surgery, the 5-year overall survival rate remains below 50%, and patients often suffer from postoperative functional impairments such as difficulties with speaking and swallowing. Programmed death receptor-1 (PD-1) inhibitors are increasingly used in the neoadjuvant treatment of locally advanced OSCC and have shown encouraging efficacy. However, clinical practice still faces key challenges, including the definition of indications, optimization of combination regimens, and standards for efficacy evaluation. Based on the latest research advances worldwide and the clinical experience of the expert group, this expert consensus systematically evaluates the application of PD-1 inhibitors in the neoadjuvant treatment of locally advanced OSCC, covering combination strategies, treatment cycles and surgical timing, efficacy assessment, use of biomarkers, management of special populations and immune related adverse events, principles for immunotherapy rechallenge, and function preservation strategies. After multiple rounds of panel discussion and through anonymous voting using the Delphi method, the following consensus statements have been formulated: 1) Neoadjuvant therapy with PD-1 inhibitors can be used preoperatively in patients with locally advanced OSCC. The preferred regimen is a PD-1 inhibitor combined with platinum based chemotherapy, administered for 2-3 cycles. 2) During the efficacy evaluation of neoadjuvant therapy, radiographic assessment should follow the dual criteria of Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 and immune RECIST (iRECIST). After surgery, systematic pathological evaluation of both the primary lesion and regional lymph nodes is required. For combination chemotherapy regimens, PD-L1 expression and combined positive score need not be used as mandatory inclusion or exclusion criteria. 3) For special populations such as the elderly (≥ 70 years), individuals with stable HIV viral load, and carriers of chronic HBV/HCV, PD-1 inhibitors may be used cautiously under the guidance of a multidisciplinary team (MDT), with close monitoring for adverse events. 4) For patients with a poor response to neoadjuvant therapy, continuation of the original treatment regimen is not recommended; the subsequent treatment plan should be adjusted promptly after MDT assessment. Organ transplant recipients and patients with active autoimmune diseases are not recommended to receive neoadjuvant PD-1 inhibitor therapy due to the high risk of immune related activation. Rechallenge is generally not advised for patients who have experienced high risk immune related adverse events such as immune mediated myocarditis, neurotoxicity, or pneumonitis. 5) For patients with a good pathological response, individualized de escalation surgery and function preservation strategies can be explored. This consensus aims to promote the standardized, safe, and precise application of neoadjuvant PD-1 inhibitor strategies in the management of locally advanced OSCC patients.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of viral hepatitis mortality and life loss among residents in Pudong New Area from 2003 to 2023, and to provide a basis for related prevention and control work. Methods Viral hepatitis mortality data were obtained from the Pudong New Area mortality monitoring system. The crude mortality rate (CMR), standardized mortality rate (SMR), potential years of life lost (PYLL), average years of life lost (AYLL), and standardized potential years of life lost (SPYLL) were calculated to analyze viral hepatitis deaths. The average annual change (AAPC) and annual percentage change (APC) of the mortality rate were calculated by Joinpoint regression analysis to analyze the trend of mortality. Results The CMR and SMR of viral hepatitis among residents in Pudong New Area from 2003 to 2023 were 3.89/100000 and 1.98/100000, respectively. Both CMR and SMR of viral hepatitis showed a decreasing trend over time (CMR:APC=-5.476, t=-13.581, P<0.001; SMR:APC=- 7.624, t= -21.253, P<0.001). The CMR for males was 4.75/100000 and the SMR for males was 2.65/100000; the CMR for females was 3.04/100000 and the SMR for females was 1.32/100000, with a higher mortality rate for males than for females（Z_CME=12.094，P<0.001; Z_SMR=-14.718，P<0.001). Deaths were concentrated in the age groups of 45-64 years old and 65 years old and above, accounting for 91.62% of the total deaths. The PYLL of deaths due to viral hepatitis among residents in Pudong New Area from 2003 to 2023 was 26912 person-years, with a PYLLR of 0.45% and an AYLL of 8.88 years per person. Conclusion The mortality rate of viral hepatitis among the residents of Pudong New Area in 2003-2023 shows a decreasing trend over time. The mortality rate of males is higher than that of females, and the deaths of middle-aged and elderly people account for a large proportion of the total deaths. Chronic hepatitis B is the main cause of death.

Esophageal cancer is a prevalent malignant tumor of the digestive tract in China, and radical surgery remains the cornerstone of its comprehensive treatment. However, multifactorial challenges such as postoperative gastrointestinal tract reconstruction, traumatic stress, and tumor-related metabolic disturbances render esophageal cancer patients highly susceptible to malnutrition. Perioperative nutritional support therapy plays a crucial role in enhancing surgical safety, improving clinical outcomes, and elevating patients' quality of life by regulating metabolic homeostasis, preserving organ function, and optimizing the immune microenvironment. This article reviews the mechanisms underlying malnutrition in esophageal cancer, methods for nutritional status assessment, and precision intervention pathways based on multi-omics evaluations. The aim is to strengthen clinicians' awareness of standardized perioperative nutritional management for esophageal cancer patients and promote its clinical implementation, thereby facilitating postoperative recovery and improving long-term quality of life.

Objective To compare and analyze the impact of intraocular higher-order aberrations and total ocular higher-order aberrations on visual quality after the implantation of different types of multifocal intraocular lenses(MIOL),in order to provide personalized MIOL selection recommendations for patients.Methods A total of 107 patients(107 eyes)with age-related cataract were selected and divided into the SBL-3,MF15,ZMB00,and Zeiss809 groups based on the type of MIOL implanted.Uncorrected distance visual acuity(UCDVA),best-corrected distance visual acuity(BCDVA),best-corrected near visual acuity(BCNVA),optical parameters and wavefront aberrations were compared 3 months postop-eratively.Results Preoperatively,there were no statistically significant differences in any optical parameters or visual acuity among the four groups(all P＞0.05).At three months postoperatively,there were no significant differences in UCD-VA,BCDVA,BCNVA,corneal aberration,or intraocular spherical aberration among the four groups(all P＞0.05).How-ever,significant differences were observed in the predicted visual acuity at 100％,20％,and 9％contrast(100％VA,20％VA,9％VA),streller ratio(SR),modulation transfer function cutoff frequency(MTF cutoff),intraocular coma,intraocu-lar trefoil,total higher-order aberrations,and the average modulation transfer function height values(MTF AH)of the en-tire eye across various spatial frequencies showed significant differences(all P＜0.05).Pairwise comparisons showed that the ZMB00 and Zeiss809 groups had significantly better 100％VA,20％VA,9％VA,SR,MTF cutoff,and MTF AH,and sig-nificantly lower intraocular coma,intraocular trefoil,and total higher-order aberrations than the SBL-3 group(all P＜0.05).The MF15 group only had significantly lower intraocular trefoil than the SBL-3 group(P＜0.05).Correlation analy-sis results at 3 months postoperatively showed that in the SBL-3 and MF15 groups,UCDVA(logMAR)was positively corre-lated with the objective scattering index and negatively correlated with 100％VA,20％VA,9％VA,SR,and MTF cutoff(all P＜0.05).MTF AH was negatively correlated with intraocular coma and total higher-order aberrations,and positively cor-related with intraocular spherical aberration(all P＜0.05).In the ZMB00 and Zeiss809 groups,MTF AH was negatively cor-related with intraocular coma,intraocular trefoil,and total higher-order aberrations(all P＜0.05),but showed no correla-tion with intraocular spherical aberration(all P＞0.05).Conclusion There are no differences in UCDVA,BCDVA,or BCNVA among patients implanted with the four types of MIOLs,but differences existed in objective visual quality.The ob-jective visual quality of ZMB00 and Zeiss809 is significantly better than that of SBL-3,making them the preferred choices for patients with high-quality visual demands;SBL-3 is suitable for basic demand scenarios;MF15,which is only superior to SBL-3 in terms of intraocular trefoil,can be a compromise option for those sensitive to trefoil aberration.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with locally advanced or metastatic pulmonary neuroendocrine tumors(NETs).Methods:The clinical records of patients with locally advanced or metastatic pulmonary NETs in Peking Uni-versity Cancer Hospital&Institute were selected from January 2014 to June 2024.The clinical characteristics,treatment,and survival pro-gnosis were then analyzed.Results:There were 32 patients,of which 18 were male and 14 female.The median age was 56 years.Nine pa-tients had typical carcinoid and 23 had atypical carcinoid,with six in stage Ⅲ and 26 in stage Ⅳ.The common metastatic sites included the bones(18 cases),lungs(8 cases),pleura(7 cases),and liver(7 cases).The median length of the measurable primary tumor was 5.2 cm,which was mostly located centrally(22 cases).Five among the 16 patients who underwent somatostatin receptor(SSTR)imaging had high SSTR ex-pression.The initial symptoms mainly included respiratory symptoms,and none of them were combined with carcinoid syndrome.For the first-line treatment,19 patients were treated with chemotherapy,seven were treated with targeted therapy,four were treated with soma-tostatin analogs(SSAs),and two were treated with surgery.The best efficacy was evaluated as a partial response in one case(3.1%),stable disease in 23 cases(71.9%),and non-evaluable or unknown in eight cases(25%)in the first-line treatment.The median progression-free sur-vival(mPFS)of patients who received first-line treatment was 5.2 months(95%CI:0.0-13.9).The PFS of targeted therapy was the longest(11.0 months,95%CI:0.0-29.6),but there was no significant difference compared with the PFS of chemotherapy and SSA groups(P>0.05).The longest PFS(24.5 months,95%CI:0.0-58.7)was found in patients treated with chemotherapy combined with radiotherapy,but there was no significant difference compared to the PFS of the combined immunotherapy and combined anti-angiogenesis groups(P>0.05).The survival rates at 1,3,and 5 years were 79.1%,65.5%,and 58.9%,respectively.Cox regression analysis did not identify independent risk factors for prognosis.Conclusions:The initial symptoms of patients with locally advanced or metastatic NETs were mainly respiratory symp-toms but without specific manifestations.Some of them were accompanied by high SSTR expression,and there was generally no carcinoid syndrome.The first-line systemic therapy mainly included chemotherapy and target therapy,with relatively low objective response and high disease control rates.Targeted therapy and combined radiotherapy have longer PFS than that of chemotherapy.The overall survival of pa-tients with pulmonary NETs was good.

Objective:To investigatetheclinicalefficacy and satetyoflaparoscopic abdominoperineal resection with pelvicperitoneum colsure for low rectal cancer.Methods:A comprehesive search was conducted across multiple da-tabases,including the Cochrane Library、PubMed、Embase、CBM、VIP、CNKI、and WanFang Data,focusing on studies re-lated to pelvic peritoneum colsure(PPC)-oriented laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection from database inception to July,2024.Then,meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3 software.Results:A total of 12 studies involving 999 patients were included.The results showed that there was no significant difference in intraoperative blood loss.The laparoscopic pelvicperitoneum colsure takes a longer time,with a statistically significant difference(WMD=12.37,95%CI=2.27～22.46,P=0.02),but the postoperative exhaust time and hospitalization time are shorter,with a statistically significant difference(WMD=0.40,95%CI=0.07～0.72,P=0.02;WMD=-2.36,95%CI=-3.33～-1.38,P＜0.00001).In terms of postoperative complications,the overall complication rate was higher in the group that did not undergo pelvic-peritoneum colsure,with a statistically significant difference(OR=0.12,95%CI=0.08～0.18,P＜0.00001).The incidence of postoperative intestinal obstruction,perineal incisional hernia,pelvic effusion infection,and radiation enteritis was higher,and the differences were statistically significant(OR=0.24,95%CI=0.13～0.45,P＜0.00001,OR=0.23,95%CI=0.11～0.49,P=0.0001,OR=0.27,95%CI=0.14～0.51,P＜0.0001,OR=0.24,95%CI:0.07～0.81,P=0.03).Conclusion:In lapa-roscopic abdominoperineal resection,closing the pelvicperitoneum has lower postoperative complications,shorter post-operative exhaust time and hospitalization time,and longer operation time,which has better clinical efficacy and safety.

Purpose: Neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC) represents a particularly aggressive subtype of prostate cancer with a challenging prognosis. The purpose of this investigation is to craft and confirm the reliability of nomograms that can accurately forecast the 1-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) rates for individuals afflicted with NEPC. Materials and Methods: Data pertaining to patients diagnosed with NEPC within the timeframe of 2010 to 2020 was meticulously gathered and examined from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program (SEER). To predict OS and CSS, we devised and authenticated two distinct nomograms, utilizing predictive variables pinpointed through both univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses. Results: The study encompassed 393 of NEPC patients, who were systematically divided into training and validation cohorts at a 2:1 ratio. Key prognostic factors were isolated, verified, and integrated into the respective nomograms for OS and CSS. The performance metrics, denoted by C-indices, stood at 0.730, 0.735 for the training set, and 0.784, 0.756 for the validation set. The precision and clinical relevance of the nomograms were further corroborated by the analysis of receiver operating characteristic curves, calibration plots, and decision curve analyses. Conclusions The constructed nomograms have demonstrated impressive efficacy in forecasting the 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS and rates for patients with NEPC. Implementing these predictive tools in clinical settings is anticipated to considerably enhance the care and treatment planning for individuals diagnosed with this aggressive form of prostate cancer, thus providing tailored and more precise prognostic assessments.

Objective: The CT/MRI Liver Imaging Reporting and Data System (LI-RADS) demonstrates high specificity with relatively limited sensitivity for diagnosing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in high-risk patients. This study aimed to explore the possibility of improving sensitivity by combining CT/MRI LI-RADS v2018 with second-line contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) LI-RADS v2017 using sulfur hexafluoride (SHF) or perfluorobutane (PFB). Materials and Methods: This retrospective analysis of prospectively collected multicenter data included high-risk patients with treatment-naive hepatic observations. The reference standard was pathological confirmation or a composite reference standard (only for benign lesions). Each participant underwent concurrent CT/MRI, SHF-enhanced US, and PFB-enhanced US examinations. The diagnostic performances for HCC of CT/MRI LI-RADS alone and three combination strategies (combining CT/ MRI LI-RADS with either LI-RADS SHF, LI-RADS PFB, or a modified algorithm incorporating the Kupffer-phase findings for PFB [modified PFB]) were evaluated. For the three combination strategies, apart from the CT/MRI LR-5 criteria, HCC was diagnosed if CT/MRI LR-3 or LR-4 observations met the LR-5 criteria using LI-RADS SHF, LI-RADS PFB, or modified PFB. Results: In total, 281 participants (237 males; mean age, 55 ± 11 years) with 306 observations (227 HCCs, 40 non-HCC malignancies, and 39 benign lesions) were included. Using LI-RADS SHF, LI-RADS PFB, and modified PFB, 20, 23, and 31 CT/MRI LR-3/4 observations, respectively, were reclassified as LR-5, and all were pathologically confirmed as HCCs. Compared to CT/MRI LI-RADS alone (74%, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 68%–79%), the three combination strategies combining CT/MRI LI-RADS with either LI-RADS SHF, LI-RADS PFB, or modified PFB increased sensitivity (83% [95% CI: 77%–87%], 84% [95% CI: 79%–89%], 88% [95% CI: 83%–92%], respectively; all P < 0.001), while maintaining the specificity at 92% (95% CI: 84%–97%). Conclusion The combination of CT/MRI LI-RADS with second-line CEUS using SHF or PFB improved the sensitivity of HCC diagnosis without compromising specificity.

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) in differentiating tumor deposits (TDs) from metastatic lymph nodes (MLNs) in rectal cancer. Materials and Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 70 patients with rectal cancer, including 168 lesions (70 TDs and 98 MLNs confirmed by histopathology), who underwent pretreatment MRI and subsequent surgery between March 2019 and December 2022. The morphological characteristics of TDs and MLNs, along with quantitative parameters derived from DCE-MRI (K trans , kep, and v e) and DWI (ADCmin, ADCmax, and ADCmean), were analyzed and compared between the two groups.Multivariable binary logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses were performed to assess the diagnostic performance of significant individual quantitative parameters and combined parameters in distinguishing TDs from MLNs. Results: All morphological features, including size, shape, border, and signal intensity, as well as all DCE-MRI parameters showed significant differences between TDs and MLNs (all P < 0.05). However, ADC values did not demonstrate significant differences (all P > 0.05). Among the single quantitative parameters, v e had the highest diagnostic accuracy, with an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.772 for distinguishing TDs from MLNs. A multivariable logistic regression model incorporating short axis, border, v e, and ADC mean improved diagnostic performance, achieving an AUC of 0.833 (P = 0.027). Conclusion The combination of morphological features, DCE-MRI parameters, and ADC values can effectively aid in the preoperative differentiation of TDs from MLNs in rectal cancer.
