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.

[Purpose]To analyze the trends in incidence,mortality and potential life loss of esophageal cancer in Linzhou City of Henan Province from 2010 to 2019.[Methods]The data of esophageal cancer incidence and mortality from 2010 to 2019 were collected from Linzhou cancer registries.The crude incidence and mortality rates,age-standardized rates(ASR)by sex and age group,the potential years of life lost(PYLL),average potential years of life lost(APYLL),and potential years of life lost rate(PYLLR)were calculated.The average annual percentage change(AAPC)from 2010 to 2019 were analyzed with Joinpoint software.[Results]From 2010 to 2019,there were a total of 8 447 newly diagnosed cases and 6 475 deaths of esophageal cancer in Linzhou.The ASR incidence and ASR mortality of esophageal cancer in the total population,males,females all showed significant downward trends,with AAPCs of-3.97％,-4.35％,-3.29％and-3.78％,-2.68％,-4.95％,respectively(all P＜0.05).The crude incidence and mortality rates in all age groups also showed significant downward trends.The AAPCs of incidence rate for the age groups of 0～49,50～59,60～69,and ≥70 years old were-9.92％,-8.27％,-1.41％,and-3.86％,respectively(all P＜0.05),and the AAPCs of mortality rate were-950％,-12.36％,-2.61％,and-2.98％,respectively(all P＜0.05).From 2010 to 2019,the total PYLL caused by esophageal cancer was 60 880 person years,APYLL was 13.73 person years,and PYLLR was 5.77‰.The PYLL,APYLL,and the PYLLR of the total population and those stratified by sex all showed a decreasing trend(all P＜0.05).[Con-clusion]From 2010 to 2019,the incidence,mortality and potential life loss of esophageal cancer in Linzhou City all decreased,and the long-term effect and screening programs is significant.How-ever,the risk of esophageal cancer among men and the elderly is still relatively high,indicating that more targeted prevention and control strategies should be developed.

[Purpose]To analyze the trends of incidence and mortality of malignant tumors in Linzhou City of Henan Province from 2010 to 2019.[Methods]The incidence and mortality data of malignant tumors of Linzhou cancer registration areas from 2010 to 2019 were collected and evaluated for data quality.The crude incidence/mortality rates and age-standardized incidence/mortality rates by Chinese standard population(ASIRC/ASMRC)were calculated by sex,age and can-cer type.Joinpoint software was used to calculate the average annual percentage change(AAPC)to analyze the trends from 2010 to 2019.[Results]From 2010 to 2019,the crude incidence of malig-nant tumors in Linzhou City showed an upward trend,with an AAPC of 2.09％(95％CI:0.58％～3.63％),while the ASIRC tended to be stable.The incidence of malignant tumors showed a signifi-cant upward trend in the 15～29 and 60～69 age groups,and a significant downward trend in the 70～79 age group.From 2010 to 2019,the ASIRC of esophageal cancer and stomach cancer in both men and women showed a significant downward trend,while that of lung cancer and prostate cancer increased in men,and the incidences of thyroid cancer,uterus cancer,cervical cancer,lung cancer and breast cancer increased significantly in women.From 2010 to 2019,the crude mortality of malignant tumors in Linzhou showed a significant upward trend,with an AAPC of 1.18％(95％CI:0.88％～1.48％),while ASMRC showed a significant downward trend,with an AAPC of-1.63％(95％CI:-1.86％～-1.40％).The mortality increased in the group aged 80 and above,while the other age groups remained in a downward or stable state.From 2010 to 2019,the ASMRC of stomach cancer and esophageal cancer in both men and women showed a down-ward trend,while those of prostate cancer,and malignant tumors of the lip,oral cavity and pha-ryngeal in men increased,and that of ovarian cancer in women increased significantly.[Conclu-sion]The disease burden of malignant tumors in Linzhou City is still heavy.The incidence of common cancer types such as thyroid cancer,prostate cancer and lung cancer shows a significant-ly increasing trends from 2010 to 2019.

Temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis is a common chronic degenerative disease,in which joint pain is the most signif-icant symptom,but its pathogenesis is still unclear.Significant subchondral bone lesions can occur in the early stage of osteoarthritis progression,and more and more experimental evidence shows that subchondral bone lesions play an important role in the pain caused by osteoarthritis.Osteoclasts,osteocytes,osteoblasts,endothelial cells,new generating nerves and blood vessels in the sub-chondral bone matrix microenvironment interact with each other and participate in the process of osteoarthritis pain.Therefore,regu-lating the subchondral bone matrix microenvironment is expected to become a new strategy to control joint pain.

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 investigate the predictive value of endothelial activation and stress index(EASIX)for the prognosis of patients with mantle cell lymphoma(MCL).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted to assess prognosis and compare the clinical features of patients diagnosed with MCL who were admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from January 2010 to June 2023,had therapeutic indications and received standard treatment.Results:A total of 66 patients were included and divided into high EASIX group and low EASIX group,according to a cutoff value of 0.97 determined by the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that prealbumin＜0.2 g/L,high EASIX,and ECOG PS score ≥2 were independent risk factors influencing overall survival(OS)in MCL patients.The median OS of patients in the high and low EASIX group was 13.0 and 37.5 months,and the median progression-free survival was 8.8 and 26.0 months,respectively.The proportions of patients with ECOG PS score ≥2 and prealbumin＜0.2 g/L at onset significantly increased in the high EASIX group compared to those in the low EASIX group.Conclusion:At the time of initial diagnosis,EASIX can serve as an independent prognostic indicator impacting OS in patients with MCL.Furthermore,patients in the high EASIX group experience a poorer prognosis and shorter survival duration compared with those in the low EASIX group.

Objective To investigate the role of the GPR120 gene in the progression of sepsis,explore the molecular mechanisms through which GPR120 gene regulates NOD-,LRR-and pyrin domain-containing protein 3(NLRP3)inflammasome activation and macrophage polarization.Methods The blood and pleural fluid samples were collected from the sepsis patients and the control group.The expression of inflammatory factors and the associated proteins were detected by flow cytometry and ELISA.C57BL/6 mice and monocyte-macrophage cell line(Raw264.7)were treated with lipopolysaccharide(LPS)to construct the sepsis models.After the intervention of GPR120 agonist TUG891,the expression of GPR120 gene,NLRP3 inflammasome protein and macrophage polarization protein were detected between the control group and the sepsis group.Results The expression of inflammatory factors,such as IL-1β in the serum of septic patients,significantly increased compared with the control(P<0.001).And the expression of inflammasome proteins such as NLRP3,Caspase-1 and IL-1β in the pleural fluid also increased(all P<0.05).In vivo,LPS could induce severe inflammation in lung tissue,the GPR120 gene expression decreased in lung tissue,and inflammatory factors were up-regulated in mouse serum(P<0.01).The inflammasome-associated protein and M1 type polarization of macrophages were enhanced,the TUG891 could reduce the inflammatory response,inhibit the NLRP3 inflammasome activating,and promote the M2 polarization of macrophages(P<0.01).In vitro,LPS could inhibit the intracellular GPR120 expression.The inflammatory factors secreted more in LPS-induced sepsis cells.TUG891 could promote the up-regulation of GPR120 protein and alleviate the secretion of inflammatory factors(P<0.05).Conclusion In sepsis,GPR120 gene activation could inhibit the NLRP3 inflammasome activation,promote macrophage polarization,and reduce the inflammatory damage,thereby delay the rapid progression of sepsis.

Temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis(TMJ-OA)is a chronic disorder characterized by degeneration of articular cartilage,pain,and functional impairment,with pathological calcification serving as a central pathological hallmark closely associated with dis-ease progression.Recent studies have demonstrated that pathological calcification accelerates joint destruction by altering cartilage bio-mechanical properties,activating inflammatory responses,and promoting matrix degradation pathways.This review systematically re-views the critical role of pathological calcification in the pathogenesis of temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis(TMJ-OA),with a focus on molecular mechanisms including key signaling pathways,autophagy-derived calcifying vesicles,lysosomal destabilization and organ-elle crosstalk.It further summarizes novel intervention strategies such as pharmacological treatments,gene therapy,and nanotechnology-based approaches,thereby providing a theoretical foundation for the precise prevention and treatment of TMJ-OA.
