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.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the levels of physical exercise, mental health and social response in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and explore the mediating effect of social response on physical exercise and mental health. MethodsFrom September, 2019 to April, 2024, 211 children with ASD from three special education schools in Haidian District and Shijingshan District of Beijing were selected. They were assessed with general data questionnaire, Physical Activity Rating Scale (PARS-3), Chinese version of Psycho-Educational Profile (C-PEP) and Social Response Scale-Short Form (SRS-SF). The correlation among physical exercise, mental health and social response was analyzed. The mediating effect of social response on physical exercise and mental health was explored. ResultsThe average physical exercise level was (58.72±3.34), the average mental health level was (14.85±1.67), and the average social response level was (24.98±3.79). Physical exercise was positively correlated with mental health (r = 0.546, P < 0.05) and negatively correlated with social response (r = -0.298, P < 0.05). Mental health was negatively correlated with social response (r = -0.397, P < 0.05). Average monthly family income, parental relationship, repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation therapy, physical exercise, social response were the influencing factors of mental health (P < 0.05). Social response was intermediary between physical exercise and mental health, accounting for 14.56%. ConclusionThe mental health level of children with ASD is poor, and there are many influencing factors. Physical exercise can directly affect the mental health of children with ASD, and can also play an indirect role through social response.

OBJECTIVE To establish a interview outline design process and quality control evaluation method based on grounded theory， providing ideas for qualitative research interview outline design in medical fields. METHODS A literature review was conducted to understand the current research status； a preliminary interview outline was developed around the research content. The triangulation method， group evaluation， expert review and pre-interview were adopted to execute the interview outline and conduct quality control. The evaluation indicators and target values were formulated （an average score for the overall quality evaluation of all indicators ≥4.5， and an average score for individual indicators ≥4.00） to evaluate the effect of the interview outline. Taking the research on the mechanism of physicians’ prescribing behavior under the background of Diagnosis Related Groups （DRGs） payment as an example， the methodological contents of above interview outline were applied in practical research. RESULTS The interview outline included basic information and interview questions. The interview questions were divided into three parts：influencing factors survey， promoting and hindering factors of standardizing physician prescription behavior， and communication， with a total of 12 questions. After being reviewed by members of the research group， experts review and pre- interview， a total of 9 people participated in the quality control evaluation of the interview outline. The overall evaluation score was 4.94 （＞4.50）， and the average score of each indicator was greater than 4.00， indicating that the quality of the outline met the requirements for the interview and could be used for the formal interview. CONCLUSIONS The established interview outline design and quality control method based on grounded theory provides ideas for the qualitative research interview outline design in the medical field， and lays the foundation for further using grounded theory to study the influencing factors and mechanisms of physician prescription behavior under the DRG background.

Objective To identify flavonoid glycosides with quorum sensing inhibitory activity from Epimedium brevicornum and evaluate their bioactivity. Methods The minimum inhibitory concentrations （MICs） of five major flavonoid glycosides （baohuoside, icariin, epimedin A/B/C） and the extract of E. brevicornum were firstly determined. Subsequently, the inhibitory effects on the production of purple pigments in Chromobacterium violaceum CV026 were measured. Additionally, the biofilm formation and chitin quantification of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 were assessed. Results The extract of E. brevicornum and its primary components exhibited significant quorum sensing inhibitory activity. Particularly, icariin and epimedin C demonstrated superior inhibitory activity. Conclusion E. brevicornum demonstrates the ability to inhibit the quorum sensing system of Chromobacterium violaceum CV026 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1. Furthermore, icariin and epimedin C （100 μg/ml） show promise for development into novel drugs for quorum sensing inhibitor.

Gout is a systemic inflammatory disease and one of the most common forms of arthritis worldwide. Hyperuricemia is the leading risk factor for gout, with a high incidence rate. The etiology of gout involves the deposition of urate crystals, secondary inflammation, and oxidative stress. These inflammatory and oxidative stress contribute to the pathogenesis of a variety of ocular disorders. Numerous studies have found a correlation of gout and hyperuricemia with ocular diseases, such as direct urate crystal deposition in ocular structures, dry eye syndrome, corneal endothelial damage, scleritis, uveitis, glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and certain metabolic diseases like thyroid-related eye diseases. Furthermore, because of its antioxidant effect, uric acid levels have been linked to a variety of optic neuropathies, including multiple sclerosis-related optic neuritis and neuromyelitis optica. Although the correlation between uric acid levels and ocular diseases has been reported, many aspects remain unresolved. To gain a more thorough understanding of the association between gout, hyperuricemia, and ocular illnesses, this review will delve into their pathogenesis and disease characteristics, aiming to increase knowledge about gout and hyperuricemia and serving as a reference for future studies.

In recent years, with the clinical application of minimally invasive surgical techniques and comprehensive preoperative treatment, the survival rate of locally advanced esophageal cancer has significantly improved. However, the treatment of metastatic esophagogastric cancer still relies mainly on systemic therapy, and immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy has become a first-line treatment option, prolonging the survival of patients with metastatic esophageal cancer. Oligometastatic esophageal cancer is expected to bring survival benefits through systemic therapy combined with local treatment. The 2024 European clinical practice guidelines for oligometastatic esophagogastric cancer have been officially released, which standardize the definition, diagnosis, and treatment of oligometastatic esophageal cancer for further prospective studies. The authors interpret this guideline, especially by reviewing the clinical evidence of oligometastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, to provide reference for the diagnosis and treatment of oligometastatic esophageal cancer in China.

Objective: To understand the influence of the concept of movement education on the fundamental motor skills of preschool children aged 3-6, so as to provide a reference for improving the quality of preschool education and promoting the all round development of preschool children. Methods: From August 2022 to June 2023, 592 normally developing preschool children aged 3- 6 in a certain kindergarten in Qingdao were selected as the research objects by convenience sampling. They were randomly divided into the intervention group (physical education activities designed based on the concept of movement education) and the control group (original teaching plan). The intervention lasted for 24 weeks (twice a week, 40 minutes each time). Test of Gross Motor Development-2 (TGMD-2) was used to evaluate the children s gross motor skills, and repeated measures analysis of variance was used to analyze the data of the two groups before and after the intervention. Results: Except for running and kicking, the group main effects ( F group =18.78-104.77), time main effects( F time =243.23-3 003.19), and other interactive effects between group and time ( F group×time =14.01-322.91) were of statistical significances for gross motor, movement motor, manipulative motor and each sub indicator between intervention group and control group. Further simple effect analysis results showed that, before intervention, there were no statistically significant differences in the total scores of gross motor (48.95±10.65,45.87±10.98), movement motor ( 25.93± 7.31,23.46±7.32) and manipulative motor (23.15±4.40,22.40±4.69) between the intervention group and the control group ( F=3.69, 2.94, 1.90, P >0.05); and two goups were also found of no statistical significance in the each sub indicator of movement and manipulative motor ( F=0.01-3.58, P >0.05); after intervention, the total scores of gross motor, movement motor, and manipulative motor in the intervention group (75.92±9.48, 38.12±5.40, 37.80±4.92) were all better than those in the control group ( 59.52± 12.12, 30.71±7.47, 28.81±5.54) ( F =168.15, 97.58, 210.71), and the total indicators of both goups had better scores than those before the intervention ( F intervention = 3 498.90 , 1 438.27, 2 431.24; F control =545.58, 309.18, 283.29)(all P <0.01); after intervention, the intervention group had better scores in all sub indicators (except for running and kicking) than the control group ( F =43.57-297.71), and the each sub indicator of both goups had better scores than those before the intervention ( F intervention = 300.58-858.65; F control =12.28-135.64)(all P <0.01). Conclusion Physical education activities designed based on the concept of movement education could better promote the development of children s fundamental motor skills.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effectiveness of single-balloon and double-balloon enteroscopy in diagnosing pediatric small bowel diseases and assess the diagnostic efficacy of computed tomography enterography (CTE) for small bowel diseases using enteroscopy as the reference standard. METHODS: Clinical data from 576 children who underwent enteroscopy at Hunan Children's Hospital between January 2017 and December 2023 were retrospectively collected. The children were categorized based on enteroscopy type into the single-balloon enteroscopy (SBE) group (n=457) and double-balloon enteroscopy (DBE) group (n=119), and the clinical data were compared between the two groups. The sensitivity and specificity of CTE for diagnosing small bowel diseases were evaluated using enteroscopy results as the standard. RESULTS: Among the 576 children, small bowel lesions were detected by enteroscopy in 274 children (47.6%).There was no significant difference in lesion detection rates or complication rates between the SBE and DBE groups (P>0.05), but the DBE group had deeper insertion, longer procedure time, and higher complete small bowel examination rate (P<0.05). The complication rate during enteroscopy was 4.3% (25/576), with 18 cases (3.1%) of mild complications and 7 cases (1.2%) of severe complications, which improved with symptomatic treatment, surgical, or endoscopic intervention. Among the 412 children who underwent CTE, the sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing small bowel diseases were 44.4% and 71.3%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS SBE and DBE have similar diagnostic efficacy for pediatric small bowel diseases, but DBE is preferred for suspected deep small bowel lesions and comprehensive small bowel examination. Enteroscopy in children demonstrates relatively good overall safety. CTE demonstrates relatively low sensitivity but comparatively high specificity for diagnosing small bowel diseases.
