[Objective] To investigate the seroprevalence characteristics of hepatitis E virus (HEV) among blood donors with hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, so as to provide data support for the monitoring, prevention and treatment of HEV. [Methods] From January to December 2022, 219 samples positive for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), 142 occult hepatitis B virus infection (OBI) samples (HBV group) and 873 samples tested negative (control group) were collected. 361 samples were further tested with viral load assay and serological testing for five serological markers (HBsAg, HBsAb, HBeAg, HBeAb and HBcAb), and the DNA load was measured using real time fluorescence quantitative PCR. Commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) were used for the detection of anti-HEV IgG, anti-HEV IgM and HEV antigen (Ag). The Chi-square test or Fisher's exact test was used to assess the differences in the reactivity rates of anti-HEV IgG and anti-HEV IgM among different blood donor populations and different variables. Multivariable logistic regression was used to examine potential risk factors associated with anti-HEV IgG seroprevalence. [Results] In the HBV group, HBsAg positive donors exhibited low expression of antigen. The HBV DNA load of OBI infected donors ranged from 1 to 131.43 IU/mL (median 11.24 IU/mL). The prevalence of anti-HEV IgG and IgM antibody in the HBV group were 34.63% and 1.11%, respectively. Among them, the prevalence of anti-HEV IgG and anti-HEV IgM in the HBV group was 34.63% and 0, respectively (P<0.05), while in the OBI donors, they were 41.55% and 2.82%, respectively. In the normal donors, the reactivity rates for anti-HEV IgG and anti-HEV IgM were 18.67% and 1.49%, respectively. Statistical analysis showed that there was a difference in the reactivity rate of anti-HEV IgG between the HBV-infected donors and the normal donors (34.63% vs 18.67%, P<0.05), but no difference in the reactivity rate of anti-HEV IgM (1.11% vs 1.49%, P>0.05). No HEV Ag was detected in either group of blood donors. Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that age was an independent risk factor for anti-HEV IgG reactivity in both groups of blood donors. [Conclusion] The reactivity rate of anti-HEV IgG among HBV-infected blood donors was significantly higher than that in the normal donors in Wuhan, with age being an independent risk factor. Therefore, for HBV-infected donors, it is essential to strengthen and prioritize the prevention and treatment of HEV to reduce the spread of HEV.

Oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma(OPSCC)is a malignant tumor originating from the squamous epithelium of the oro-pharyngeal mucosa,accounting for more than 90％of oropharyngeal malignancies.In recent years,human papillomavirus(HPV)infec-tion has become one of the primary etiological factors of oropharyngeal squamous carcinoma.The incidence of HPV-associated oropharyn-geal squamous carcinoma has been rising annually,with a noticeable trend toward younger populations,posing a significant threat to hu-man health.Due to the distinct biological behavior and clinical characteristics of HPV-associated oropharyngeal squamous carcinoma com-pared to its non-HPV-related counterpart,the diagnostic and treatment strategies for oropharyngeal squamous carcinoma have undergone substantial changes.Prevention and screening for oropharyngeal squamous carcinoma are of critical importance.The diagnostic and treat-ment process involves multi-disciplinary collaboration,including oral and maxillofacial surgery,otolaryngology,head and neck surgery,oncology,radiology and pathology.Based on evidence from clinical practice,a comprehensive,integrated diagnostic and therapeutic ap-proach has been established,centered around the concept of"prevention,screening,diagnosis,treatment,and rehabilitation",covering the entire patient lifecycle and providing a valuable reference for clinical practice.

Objective To summarize and analyze the clinical features,imaging manifestations,pathological characteristics,treatment approaches,and prognosis of adrenal anastomotic hemangioma(AH),so as to enhance the clinical understanding of this disease.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 3 adrenal AH patients treated in Tongji Hospital during Jan.2012 and Dec.2024.Relevant literature was reviewed.Results All patients were male,aged 34-56 years,with a maximum tumor diameter of 2.0-5.0 cm.All tumors were solitary.No patients presented with special clinical manifestations.Biochemical tests indicated tumors with no endocrine function.Contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed circular mixed density shadows with uneven edge enhancement.Two patients underwent laparoscopic partial adrenal resection,and one patient received robot-assisted laparoscopic partial adrenal resection.Postoperative pathological results of all three cases indicated AH.Immunohistochemistry showed CD31(+),CD34(+),and ERG(+).No recurrence was found in a postoperative follow-up of 1-45 months.A total of 22 cases of adrenal AH were reported in the literature and our center,with onset age ranging from 34 to 83 years.The patients included 17 males and 5 females,with a maximum tumor diameter of 0.6-8.8 cm.Among them,2 cases were multifocal and the tumors were located in the kidneys,beside kidneys,or in the inferior vena cava.Two cases showed clinical manifestations of lower back pain.During the follow-up of 156 months,no recurrence or metastasis was observed.Conclusion Adrenal AH is a rare benign tumor,which mainly occurs in middle-aged and elderly people with no clinical symptoms and endocrine function.Imaging can easily mistake it for pheochromocytoma or well differentiated vascular sarcoma,and the diagnosis mainly relies on pathological examination.It should be distinguished from pheochromocytoma and well differentiated vascular sarcoma.Surgery is the main treatment method and the prognosis is good.

Objective To develop a static progressive ankle stretcher for the treatment of functional disorders caused by scar contracture of the Achilles tendon after burn,and to evaluate its application effect.Methods The static progressive ankle stretcher was composed of a plantar support section and a calf support section,which was mainly made of a 3.2 mm-thick medical low-temperature thermoplastic plate,a commercially available 1 mm-diameter steel wire rope,grooved wheels,ice fishing reels with a diameter of about 50 mm,curved folding hinges and a locking threader with a hole diameter of about 1.5 mm.Totally 49 patients with scar contracture after deep Ⅱ to Ⅲ-degree burns of the Achilles tendon admitted to some hospital from March 2021 to January 2023 were prospectively selected and divided into a conventional rehabilitation group(25 cases)and a combined rehabilitation group(24 cases)using a randomized numerical table method.The patients in the conventional rehabilitation group underwent routine scar care such as anti-scarring medication application at home,scar massage,resistance training,joint loosening training in the hospital and compression therapy with the customized compression stockings/pants at the rest of the time,the patients in the combined rehabilitation group were treated with the static progressive ankle stretcher besides the measures taken for the conventional group.The two groups were compared in terms of scarring,ankle function and active dorsiflexion mobility of the ankle joint before and 12 weeks after the treatment,balance and walking ability 4 weeks and 12 weeks after the treatment,adverse events during the treatment and patient satisfaction 12 weeks after the treatment.SPSS 23.0 statistical software was used for data analysis.Results In terms of scarring condition,ankle function and active dorsiflexion mobility of the ankle joint all the patients were improved 12 weeks after the treatment,and the ones in the combined rehabilitation group behaved better than the ones in the conventional group,with the differences being statistically significant(P<0.05).The balance and walking ability 12 weeks after the treatment was better than that 4 weeks after the treatment in the two groups,and the combined rehabilitation group gained advantages over the conventional group in balance and walking ability,with the difference being statistically significant(P<0.05).During the treatment no adverse events due to the static progressive ankle stretcher were found,such as muscle tissue strain,scarred skin rupture,instrument friction and pressure injury.The combined rehabilitation group had higher patient satisfaction than the conventional group 12 weeks after the treatment,with the differences being statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion The static progressive ankle stretcher combined with the conventional rehabilitation treatment contributes to improving contracture scar conditions and joint mobility at the Achilles tendon area of the post-burn patients,which helps accelerate the recovery of ankle function after burns and enhance the balance and walking ability of the patients.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(10):54-59]

In recent decades,the incidence of human papillomavirus(HPV)-associated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma(OPSCC)has shown a marked increase.Significant changes have also occurred in the OPSCC diagnosis and treatment paradigm.Deter-mining HPV status prior to treatment is now essential,and radiotherapy/chemotherapy,immunotherapy,and minimally invasive surgical techniques have progressively emerged as key modalities for managing OPSCC.However,alongside these paradigm shifts,a comprehen-sive technical consensus guiding the entire diagnostic and therapeutic process for OPSCC patients is currently lacking.Given China's large population base and the rising incidence of OPSCC,an expert panel convened to develop a clinical technical consensus on OPSCC diagno-sis and management tailored to China's specific context.This consensus aims to further enhance and standardize understanding of OPSCC management techniques among relevant healthcare professionals.

Hearing loss is the most prevalent disabling disease. Cochlear implantation（CI） serves as the primary intervention for severe to profound hearing loss. This consensus systematically explores the value of genetic diagnosis in the pre-operative assessment and efficacy prognosis for CI. Drawing upon domestic and international research and clinical experience, it proposes an evidence-based medicine three-tiered prognostic classification system（Favorable, Marginal, Poor）. The consensus focuses on common hereditary non-syndromic hearing loss（such as that caused by mutations in genes like GJB2, SLC26A4, OTOF, LOXHD1） and syndromic hereditary hearing loss（such as Jervell & Lange-Nielsen syndrome and Waardenburg syndrome）, which are closely associated with congenital hearing loss, analyzing the impact of their pathological mechanisms on CI outcomes. The consensus provides recommendations based on multiple round of expert discussion and voting. It emphasizes that genetic diagnosis can optimize patient selection, predict prognosis, guide post-operative rehabilitation, offer stratified management strategies for patients with different genotypes, and advance the application of precision medicine in the field of CI.
