Objective:To explore the rehabilitation effects of individual computer story-version magnanimous therapy (ICSMT) on patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD).Methods:A total of 120 patients with end-stage renal disease receiving MHD treatment at the Department of Nephrology Hemodialysis Center of Huadu District People's Hospital of Guangzhou from August 2022 to April 2024 were selected as the study subjects.They were randomly divided into control group ( n=60, receiving routine clinical treatment) and ICSMT group ( n=60, receiving routine clinical treatment combined with ICSMT for psychological intervention) by random number table method.The patients in the two groups were evaluated by the self-rating anxiety scale (SAS), self-rating depression scale (SDS), enterprising and magnanimous questionnaire (EMQ), the short-form-36 health survey (SF-36), and activity of daily living scale (ADL) before intervention and at 4-week post-intervention.Blood pressure, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), hemoglobin (Hb), and serum albumin (ALB) levels were also measured before the intervention and at the 4-week post-intervention.The clinical global impression scale (CGI) was used to evaluate clinical efficacy before the intervention, at the 2-week post-intervention, and at the 4-week post-intervention.Statistics analysis was performed using SPSS 29.0.1.0(171). Independent-samples t-test, paired t-test, Mann-Whitney U test and Wilcoxon signed-rank test were used for statistical analysis. Results:After 4 weeks of intervention, the SAS and SDS in the ICSMT group (49.0 (48.0, 50.0), 50.0 (49.0, 51.0)) were significantly lower than those in the control group (51.0 (50.0, 52.0), 52.0 (51.0, 53.0)) (both P<0.001). The enterprising subscore of the EMQ in the ICSMT group (35.0 (32.0, 37.0)) was significantly higher than that in the control group (31.0 (29.0, 34.0)) ( P<0.001). Furthermore, the differences of enterprising and magnanimous subscores between the two groups before and after intervention in the ICSMT group (2.0 (1.0, 4.0), 1.0 (-1.0, 2.0))were significantly higher than those in the control group (-1.0 (-1.0, 0), -1.0 (-1.2, 0)) (both P<0.05). Systolic and diastolic blood pressure values in the ICSMT group (130 (126, 134) mmHg, 85 (80, 88) mmHg)were significantly lower than those in the control group (145 (138, 152) mmHg, 93 (88, 99) mmHg)(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) after 4 weeks of intervention(both P<0.05). After 4 weeks of intervention, the level of BUN in the ICSMT group (5.5 (3.7, 8.4) mmol/L) was significantly lower than that in the control group (9.1 (6.8, 11.4) mmol/L), while the level of Hb and ALB in the ICSMT group ((115.0±10.0)g/L, (38.3±3.2)g/L)were significantly higher than those in the control group ((104.0±12.0)g/L, (37.1±2.9)g/L) (all P<0.05). After 4 weeks of intervention, the physical functioning, role-physical, general health, vitality, social functioning, role-emotional, and mental health subscores of SF-36 in ICSMT group were all significantly higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05). After 4 weeks of intervention, the score of ADL in the ICSMT group (15.42±1.58)was significantly lower than that in the control group (16.78±2.06) ( t=-4.08, P<0.05). At the 2-week post-intervention and the 4-week post-intervention, the severity of illness (SI) and global improvement (GI) in the ICSMT group were significantly lower than those in the control group, while the efficacy index (EI) in the ICSMT group was significantly higher than that in the control group (all P<0.05). Conclusion:ICSMT can effectively promote the physical, psychological, and social functional rehabilitation of end-stage renal disease patients undergoing MHD, significantly improving their quality of life.

Objective To explore the experiences of children with Crohn's disease and their parents regarding the exclusion diet,and to provide a basis for formulating personalized dietary guidance programs.Methods A total of 12 children with Crohn's disease and their parents,hospitalized in the Department of Gastroenterology at a tertiary children's hospital in Guangzhou from June to December 2023,were selected as research subjects using objective sampling.Semi-structured interviews were conducted,and the data were analyzed and refined using Colaizzi's seven-step analysis method.Results Totally 3 themes and 14 sub-themes were extracted.①Lack of cognition and trust in Crohn's disease exclusion diet(unfamiliarity with the contents of the diet,misunderstanding of the diet's preparation,inadequate response to daily exclusion diet practices,parents' distrust in the exclusion diet).②The practical challenges of the Crohn's disease exclusion diet(the challenge of personal dietary preferences,the challenge of family meal preparation,the challenge of school feeding,food intolerance,feelings of monotony and weariness following the exclusion diet).③Innovations in practicing the Crohn's disease exclusion diet(managing taste fatigue,managing visual fatigue,innovative cooking methods,prioritizing exclusive enteral nutrition followed by the exclusion diet,overcoming the desire for universal food).Conclusion Children with Crohn's disease and their parents exhibit insufficient cognition and trust in the exclusion diet and face various challenges in practice.Clinical medical staff should adopt personalized coping strategies tailored to the specific circumstances of each child.

Objective:To investigate the clinicohistologic and molecular pathological characteristics of invasive stratified mucin-producing carcinoma(ISMC).Methods:The clinicopathological data,immunohistochemistry,alcian blue/periodic acid-Schiff(AB/PAS)staining,molecular detection and PD-L1 expressions of 11 cases of ISMC and 4 cases of stratified mucin-producing intraepithelial lesion(SMILE)in the pathological database of Anqing Medical Center of Anhui Medical University/Anqing Municipal Hospital and the first Affiliated hospital of Wannan Medical School/Yijishan Hostital between January of 2018 and March of 2024 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:ISMC patients often presented with irregular vaginal bleeding.Morphologically,the cells containing mucus in the cytoplasm were arranged in stratified layers,surrounded by a palisade,and the tumor cells might be signet ring-shaped or have clear cytoplasm.ISMC might occur in both pure and mixed forms.ISMC had highly invasive biological characteristics.CK7,p16,p40 and(or)p63 were expressed focally or positively in the form of palisades around the cancer nests.AB-PAS staining was positive.HPV test results:HPV16/18 was positive in ISMC(1/4);HPV16/18 was positive before surgery(4/6);no HPV was detected in SMILE;all ISMC cases expressed PD-L1.Eight ISMC patients were successfully followed up for 4-39 months(average 20.50 months),and four SMILE patients for 1-25 months(average 8.25 months).All followed-up patients survived;however,one ISMC patient developed multi-organ metastases post-surgery.Conclusion:ISMC has unique morphological characteristics and immunophenotypes,indicated by high invasiveness and poor prognosis.All ISMC are PD-L1 positive,suggesting that these patients may benefit from PD-L1 immunotherapy.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness, safety, and cost among urinary follicle-stimulating hormone (u-FSH), recombinant FSH (r-FSH)α, and r-FSHβ in the early follicular phase prolonged protocol for patients under 35 years old with normal ovarian function.Methods:It was a retrospective cohort study. Patients under 35 years old with normal ovarian function who underwent early follicular phase prolonged protocol for ovulation stimulation and using in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) for fertilization in Reproductive Health Hospital of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2018 to December 2023 were recruited, including the fresh and frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles. Patients were divided into u-FSH group, r-FSHα group, and r-FSHβ group. A total of 1 048 ovarian stimulation cycles were included, with 150 cycles, 490 cycles and 408 cycles in the three groups respectively. A total of 710 FET cycles with fresh cycle cancellation were included, with 95 cycles, 320 cycles and 295 cycles in the three groups respectively. The baseline data, pregnancy outcomes, safety, and cost were compared among the three groups. The main observation indicators were cumulative pregnancy rate and cumulative live birth rate (CLBR). A binary logistic regression model was used to control confounding factors, and to analyze the relationship between three ovulation inducing medicine and CLBR. Results:The difference in the number of oocytes retrieved among the u-FSH group, r-FSHα group, and r-FSHβ group was statistically significant [13.0 (10.0, 16.0), 14.0 (11.0, 18.0), 15.0 (11.0, 19.0), respectively, P=0.012], and the difference in the number of 2PN embryos was statistically significant [9.0 (6.0, 12.0), 10.0 (7.0, 13.0), 10.0 (7.0, 13.0), respectively, P=0.046]. There were no statistically significant differences in the number of available embryos, available embryo rate, the number of high-quality embryos, high-quality embryo rate, available blastocyst formation rate, fresh cycle clinical pregnancy rate, live birth rate in fresh cycle, cumulative pregnancy rate of frozen embryos with fresh cycle cancellation, CLBR of frozen embryos with fresh cycle cancellation, cumulative clinical pregnancy rate, CLBR, moderate to severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome incidence, ectopic pregnancy rate, multiple pregnancy rate and neonatal malformation rate among the three groups (all P>0.05). In terms of economy, the u-FSH group had the lowest total gonadotropin cost for each patient, while the r-FSHα group had the highest. The differences among the three groups were statistically significant [u-FSH group 4 429.08 (3 198.78, 5 044.23) yuan, r-FSHα group 6 023.72 (5 433.75, 7 529.65) yuan, r-FSHβ group 5 480.00 (4 550.90, 6 437.86) yuan, P<0.001]. Binary logistic regression analysis was conducted, using u-FSH as a control. The CLBR of the r-FSHα group and r-FSHβ group showed no statistically significant difference compared with the u-FSH group (a OR=0.95, 95% CI: 0.57-1.58, P=0.838; a OR=0.89, 95% CI: 0.54-1.48, P=0.654). Conclusion:For patients under 35 years old with normal ovarian function undergoing long protocol ovarian stimulation, the effectiveness and safety of the three ovarian-stimulating medicine are similar, but u-FSH has economic advantages.

Objective:To investigate the clinical value of Delphian lymph node (DLN) metastasis (DLNM) in predicting regional lymph node involvement in patients with intrathyroidal papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC).Methods:Clinical and pathological data from 345 consecutive patients with pathologically confirmed DLN status, who underwent initial surgical treatment at the Department of Surgical Oncology, First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine between Jan 2020 and Dec 2022, were retrospectively analyzed.Results:DLNM was identified in 61 patients (17.7%). Univariate analysis revealed significant associations between DLNM and male sex, elevated preoperative thyroglobulin levels, larger tumor size, maximum tumor diameter >10 mm, bilateral lesions, multifocality, lymphovascular invasion, and lymph nodes metastases in pretracheal, paratracheal, and lateral cervical(all P ≤0.001). Elevated thyroglobulin antibody levels ( χ2=6.201, P=0.013) and Hashimoto's thyroiditis ( χ2=11.340, P<0.001) were protective factors for DLNM. Multivariate analysis identified male sex, lymphovascular invasion, pretracheal, and paratracheal lymph node metastases ( χ2=6.689, P=0.010; χ2=8.163, P=0.004; χ2=7.605, P=0.006; χ2=8.324, P=0.004) as independent risk indicators for DLNM. Patients with DLNM exhibited significantly higher risks of lymph nodes metastases in pretracheal ( χ2=27.307, P<0.001), paratracheal ( χ2=38.697, P<0.001), and lateral cervical ( χ2=36.459, P<0.001). Conclusion:DLNM demonstrates predictive value for both central compartment and lateral cervical lymph node metastases, warranting particular attention to meticulous dissection of the prelaryngeal region during surgery.

Objective:To explore the safety, effectiveness, and short-term outcomes of transoral robotic surgery (TORS) for supraglottic laryngeal cancer.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with supraglottic laryngeal cancer who underwent TORS at Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, Tongji Hospital of Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Eye Ear Nose and Throat Hospital of Fudan University, and the First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University between January 2018 and April 2024. Data on operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative hospital stay, perioperative tracheostomy, nasogastric feeding, complications, and short-term follow-up were analyzed. Statistical analysis was performed using Python.Results:A total of 27 patients with supraglottic laryngeal cancer were included from the four centers, including 24 males and 3 females, with a median age of 66 (65, 68) years [ M( Q1, Q3), same below]. There were 26 cases of squamous cell carcinoma and 1 case of adenoid cystic carcinoma.The TNM staging included T1 in 10 cases (37.04%), T2 in 13 cases (48.15%), and T3 in 4 cases (14.81%); N0 in 14 cases (51.85%), N1 in 7 cases (25.93%), and N2 in 6 cases (22.22%). The Da Vinci Si system was used in 23 cases, and the Da Vinci Xi in 4 cases. The robotic surgical time was 53 (30, 58) min. Concurrent neck dissection was performed in 25 cases, neoadjuvant therapy was given preoperatively in 8 cases (29.63%), and postoperative radiotherapy was administered in 13 cases (48.15%). Tracheostomy was performed in 11 cases (40.74%). Nasogastric tube placement was required in 23 cases (85.19%), with a median duration of 16 (12, 21) days. The postoperative hospital stay was 9.19±4.07 days. The median follow-up time was 12 (3, 30) months. Local recurrence occurred in 2 cases. The 3-year overall survival rate was 100%, and the 3-year disease-free survival rate was 94.1%. Conclusion:With appropriate patient selection, TORS for supraglottic laryngeal cancer demonstrates satisfactory short-term outcomes, thereby offering advantages in safety, efficacy, and minimal invasiveness, which can be considered a new treatment option for this condition.
