Intraoperative cell salvage (IOCS) has been widely applied as an important blood conservation measure in surgical operations. However, there is currently a lack of clinical practice guidelines for the implementation of IOCS in patients with malignant tumors. This report aims to provide clinicians with recommendations on the use of IOCS in patients with malignant tumors based on the review and assessment of the existed evidence. Data were derived from databases such as PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library and Wanfang. The guideline development team formulated recommendations based on the quality of evidence, balance of benefits and harms, patient preferences, and health economic assessments. This study constructed seven major clinical questions. The main conclusions of this guideline are as follows: 1) Compared with no perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion (NPABT), perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion (PABT) leads to a more unfavorable prognosis in cancer patients (Recommended); 2) Compared with the transfusion of allogeneic blood or no transfusion, IOCS does not lead to a more unfavorable prognosis in cancer patients (Recommended); 3) The implementation of IOCS in cancer patients is economically feasible (Recommended); 4) Leukocyte depletion filters (LDF) should be used when implementing IOCS in cancer patients (Strongly Recommended); 5) Irradiation treatment of autologous blood to be reinfused can be used when implementing IOCS in cancer patients (Recommended); 6) A careful assessment of the condition of cancer patients (meeting indications and excluding contraindications) should be conducted before implementing IOCS (Strongly Recommended); 7) Informed consent from cancer patients should be obtained when implementing IOCS, with a thorough pre-assessment of the patient's condition and the likelihood of blood loss, adherence to standardized internally audited management procedures, meeting corresponding conditions, and obtaining corresponding qualifications (Recommended). In brief, current evidence indicates that IOCS can be implemented for some malignant tumor patients who need allogeneic blood transfusion after physician full evaluation, and LDF or irradiation should be used during the implementation process.

Objective:To explore the hypothesis of "pathogen storage pool" by analyzing the local microbial community of adenoids. Methods:Under the guidance of a 70° nasal endoscope, sterile swabs were used to collect secretions from the adenoid crypts of the subjects. The samples were sent to the laboratory for DNA extraction and standard bacterial 16S full-length sequencing analysis. Results:At the species level, the top three microbial communities in adenoid crypts were Bacillus subtilis（18.78%）, Fusobacterium pyogenes（11.42%）, and Streptococcus pneumoniae（9.38%）. Conclusion:The local microbial community of adenoids exhibits a high degree of diversity, including microbial communities from the oral cavity and gastrointestinal tract. Our research results support the hypothesis that adenoids act as a " pathogen reservoir".

Sigma-1 receptor (σ ₁R) has become a focus point of drug discovery for central nervous system (CNS) diseases. A series of novel 1-phenylethan-1-one O-(2-aminoethyl) oxime derivatives were synthesized. In vitro biological evaluation led to the identification of 1a, 14a, 15d and 16d as the most high-affinity (K _i < 4 nmol/L) and selective σ ₁R agonists. Among these, 15d, the most metabolically stable derivative exhibited high selectivity for σ ₁R in relation to σ ₂R and 52 other human targets. In addition to low CYP450 inhibition and induction, 15d also exhibited high brain permeability and excellent oral bioavailability. Importantly, 15d demonstrated effective antipsychotic potency, particularly for alleviating negative symptoms and improving cognitive impairment in experimental animal models, both of which are major challenges for schizophrenia treatment. Moreover, 15d produced no significant extrapyramidal symptoms, exhibiting superior pharmacological profiles in relation to current antipsychotic drugs. Mechanistically, 15d inhibited GSK3β and enhanced prefrontal BDNF expression and excitatory synaptic transmission in pyramidal neurons. Collectively, these in vivo proof-of-concept findings provide substantial experimental evidence to demonstrate that modulating σ ₁R represents a potential new therapeutic approach for schizophrenia. The novel chemical entity along with its favorable drug-like and pharmacological profile of 15d renders it a promising candidate for treating schizophrenia.

Peri-implant keratinized mucosa (PIKM) augmentation refers to surgical procedures aimed at increasing the width of PIKM. Consensus reports emphasize the necessity of maintaining a minimum width of PIKM to ensure long-term peri-implant health. Currently, several surgical techniques have been validated for their effectiveness in increasing PIKM. However, the selection and application of PIKM augmentation methods may present challenges for dental practitioners due to heterogeneity in surgical techniques, variations in clinical scenarios, and anatomical differences. Therefore, clear guidelines and considerations for PIKM augmentation are needed. This expert consensus focuses on the commonly employed surgical techniques for PIKM augmentation and the factors influencing their selection at second-stage surgery. It aims to establish a standardized framework for assessing, planning, and executing PIKM augmentation procedures, with the goal of offering evidence-based guidance to enhance the predictability and success of PIKM augmentation.

With the growing emphasis on maternal and child oral health, the significance of managing oral health across preconception, pregnancy, and infancy stages has become increasingly apparent. Oral health challenges extend beyond affecting maternal well-being, exerting profound influences on fetal and neonatal oral development as well as immune system maturation. This expert consensus paper, developed using a modified Delphi method, reviews current research and provides recommendations on maternal and child oral health management. It underscores the critical role of comprehensive oral assessments prior to conception, diligent oral health management throughout pregnancy, and meticulous oral hygiene practices during infancy. Effective strategies should be seamlessly integrated across the life course, encompassing preconception oral assessments, systematic dental care during pregnancy, and routine infant oral hygiene. Collaborative efforts among pediatric dentists, maternal and child health workers, and obstetricians are crucial to improving outcomes and fostering clinical research, contributing to evidence-based health management strategies.

Objective Based on U.S.Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System(FAERS)database,the signal mining of tizanidine adverse drug events(ADEs)was conducted to explore the occurrence characteristics of ADE,hoping to provide references for the safe clinical application of tizanidine.Methods The reporting odds ratio(ROR)and medicines and healthcare products regulatory agency methods(MHRA)were used to analyse the ADE of tizanidine using FAERS registration data from the first quarter of 2004 to the second quarter of 2022.After valid signals were obtained,the MedDRA was used for translation and system organ classification.Results A total of 7 135 reports of tizanidine ADE were obtained,including 1 732 patients,1 304 ADE types were involved.According to the results of 2 ADE signal mining methods,at the preferred term(PT)level,177 signals were detected.There were 32 PT signals not included in the drug instructions,including potassium wasting nephropathy,cardio-respiratory arrest,and foetal growth restriction etc.In 1 732 patients,the number of ADE cases of female was 2.37 times that in male(1 057 vs.446),and the age group between 40 and 64 accounted for a large proportion(36.03％).The highest proportion(32.79％)reported by consumers.The system organ class involved mainly included various neurological diseases and psychosis.The median time to onset of tizanidine-related ADEs was 75 d(interquartile range:28-223 d),but it was necessary to be vigilant that ADE may still occur 1 year after starting the drug(13.38％).Conclusion This study aims to suggest that clinical application of tizanidin-related ADE should be paid full attention to the occurrence of ADE such as potassium-wasting nephropathy and suicidally completed,as well as key populations such as women and patients of 40-64 years old.

Purpose::The toughest challenge in pedestrian traffic accident identification lies in ascertaining injury manners. This study aimed to systematically simulate and parameterize 3 types of craniocerebral injury including impact injury, fall injury, and run-over injury, to compare the injury response outcomes of different injury manners.Methods::Based on the total human model for safety (THUMS) and its enhanced human model THUMS-hollow structures, a total of 84 simulations with 3 injury manners, different loading directions, and loading velocities were conducted. Von Mises stress, intracranial pressure, maximum principal strain, cumulative strain damage measure, shear stress, and cranial strain were employed to analyze the injury response of all areas of the brain. To examine the association between injury conditions and injury consequences, correlation analysis, principal component analysis, linear regression, and stepwise linear regression were utilized.Results::There is a significant correlation observed between each criterion of skull and brain injury ( p < 0.01 in all Pearson correlation analysis results). A 2-phase increase of cranio-cerebral stress and strain as impact speed increases. In high-speed impact (> 40 km/h), the Von Mises stress on the skull was with a high possibility exceed the threshold for skull fracture (100 MPa). When falling and making temporal and occipital contact with the ground, the opposite side of the impacted area experiences higher frequency stress concentration than contact at other conditions. Run-over injuries tend to have a more comprehensive craniocerebral injury, with greater overall deformation due to more adequate kinetic energy conduction. The mean value of maximum principal strain of brain and Von Mises stress of cranium at run-over condition are 1.39 and 403.8 MPa, while they were 1.31, 94.11 MPa and 0.64, 120.5 MPa for the impact and fall conditions, respectively. The impact velocity also plays a significant role in craniocerebral injury in impact and fall loading conditions (the p of all F-test < 0.05). A regression equation of the craniocerebral injury manners in pedestrian accidents was established. Conclusion::The study distinguished the craniocerebral injuries caused in different manners, elucidated the biomechanical mechanisms of craniocerebral injury, and provided a biomechanical foundation for the identification of craniocerebral injury in legal contexts.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of conventional open ankle fusion and three dimensional(3D) printed guide plate assisted arthroscopic ankle fusion.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was performed on 256 patients with advanced traumatic ankle arthritis, who were admitted to the Department of Orthopaedics, Shanghai Sixth People′s Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from May 2018 to February 2023 and underwent ankle fusion procedures. The study cohort comprised 119 males and 137 females, with an age of (59.6±9.5) years (range: 37 to 83 years). Among them, 175 cases underwent internal fixation with plates and screws (58 cases through the combined medial and lateral approach, and 117 cases through the simple lateral approach), 48 cases underwent internal fixation with screws through the anterior approach (conventional open group), and 33 cases underwent minimally invasive arthroscopic ankle fusion assisted by 3D printed guide plate (3D printed guide plate arthroscopy group). Propensity score matching was employed to achieve a 1∶1 match(caliper value=0.02) between the baseline characteristics of patients in the 3D printed guide plate arthroscopy group and the conventional open group. Perioperative and follow-up data between the two groups were compared using the t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, Wilcoxon signed rank test, χ2 test or corrected χ2 test as appropriate. Results:Matching was successfully achieved with 20 cases in both the 3D printed guide plate arthroscopy group and the conventional open group, and there were no statistically significant differences in baseline characteristics between the two groups (all P>0.05). The operation time in the 3D printed guide plate arthroscopy group was significantly longer than that in the conventional open group ((88.9±5.6) minutes vs. (77.9±11.7) minutes; t=-2.392, P=0.022), while the frequency of intraoperative fluoroscopies ((1.7±0.8) times vs. (5.2±1.2) times; t=10.604, P<0.01) and length of hospitalization ((5.5±0.9) days vs. (6.4±1.5) days; t=2.480, P=0.018) were significantly lower in the 3D printed guide plate arthroscopy group compared to the conventional open group. The fusion rate was 95.0% (19/20) in the 3D printed guide plate arthroscopy group and 85.0% (17/20) in the conventional open group, with no statistically significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=0.278, P=0.598). The fusion time was (12.1±2.0) weeks in the conventional open group and (11.1±1.7) weeks in the 3D printed guide plate arthroscopy group, with no statistically significant difference between the two groups ( t=1.607, P=0.116). At the final follow-up, the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society ankle hindfoot scale was (72.6±5.5)points in the 3D printed guide plate arthroscopy group and (70.5±5.8)points in the conventional open group, with no statistically significant difference between the two groups ( t=-1.003, P=0.322). The pain visual analogue score of the 3D printed guide plate arthroscopy group was ( M(IQR)) 1.50 (1.00) points, lower than that of the conventional open group by 3.00 (1.00) points, with statistically significant differences ( Z=-3.937, P<0.01). There was no significant difference in complication rate between the conventional open group and the 3D printed guide plate arthroscopy group (25.0%(5/20) vs. 5.0%(1/20), χ2=1.765， P=0.184). Conclusion:3D printed guide plate assisted arthroscopic ankle fusion exhibited several advantages, including reduced frequency of fluoroscopies, alleviation of postoperative pain, and decreased complications and length of hospitalization.

Objective To explore the effect of Tongdu Tiaoshen acupuncture,a needling method for dredging governor vessel and regulating mind,on cerebral hemodynamics and oxygen free radicals in the patients with post-stroke epilepsy(PSE).Methods A total of 60 patients with PSE were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group,with 30 cases in each group.Both groups were given basic treatment for lowering lipid level,controlling blood pressure and glucose contents,and counteracting platelet aggregation.Moreover,the control group was treated with Sodium Valproate Sustained-Release Tablets,and the treatment group was treated with Tongdu Tiaoshen acupuncture mainly on the acupoints of Baihui(GV20),Shenting(GV24),Shuigou(GV26),Fengfu(GV 16),Fengchi(GB20)based on the treatment for the control group.One month constituted a course of treatment,and the treatment for the two groups covered three courses of treatment.The number of epileptic seizures,the severity of electroencephalogram(EEG),the peak systolic velocity(Vs)and end diastolic velocity(Vd)of bilateral anterior cerebral arteries,middle cerebral arteries and posterior cerebral arteries detected by transcranial Doppler ultrasonography(TCD),and the changes in the peripheral levels of oxygen free radicals such as malondialdehyde(MDA),hydroxyl radical(OH),lipid peroxide(LPO)and superoxide dismutase(SOD)in the two groups were observed before and after treatment.After treatment,the clinical efficacy and safety of the two groups were evaluated.Results(1)After three months of treatment,the total effective rate of the treatment group was 93.33％(28/30),and that of the control group was 73.33％(23/30).The intergroup comparison(tested by chi-square test)showed that the efficacy of the treatment group was significantly superior to that of the control group(P＜0.05).(2)After treatment,the average monthly epileptic seizure frequency in the two groups was decreased when compared with that before treatment(P＜0.05),and the decrease in the treatment group was more significant than that in the control group(P＜0.05).(3)After treatment,the grading of EEG severity in the two groups was significantly improved when compared with that before treatment(P＜0.05),and the improvement in the treatment group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P＜0.05).(4)After treatment,the peripheral levels of oxygen free radicals of MDA,OH and LPO in the two groups were lower than those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the peripheral level of SOD was higher than that before treatment(P＜0.05).The decrease of MDA,OH and LPO levels and the increase of SOD level in the treatment group were significantly superior to those in the control group(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).(5)After treatment,the values of cerebral hemodynamic indicators of Vs and Vd of both left and right anterior cerebral artery,middle cerebral artery and posterior cerebral artery in the two groups were higher than those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the increase in the treatment group was significantly superior to that in the control group,the differences being statistically significant(P＜0.05).(6)During the treatment,there were no fainting,sticking of needle,bleeding and rash occurring during acupuncture in the two groups,which indicated that the therapy had high safety.Conclusion Tongdu Tiaoshen acupuncture can significantly reduce the seizure frequency of PSE and improve the severity of epileptic EEG.Its therapeutic mechanism may be related with the decrease of the oxygen free radical levels and with the improvement of cerebral hemodynamics.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy,safety,and potency ratio of microwave ablation(MW A)combined with percutaneous osteoplasty(POP)for the treatment of flat bone metastases.Methods A total of 57 patients with flat bone metastases complicated by intractable pain,who underwent MWA combined with POP(combination therapy)or only POP(pure POP therapy)at the Zhongshan Municipal People's Hospital of China between January 2016 and January 2023,were enrolled in this study.The combination therapy group had 36 patients and the pure POP therapy group had 21 patients.Visual analog scale(VAS),Oswestry Disability Index(ODI),quality of life assessment scale(QOL)were used to evaluate the preoperative and the postoperative different period efficacy,and the results were compared between the two groups.The procedure-related complications in both groups were recorded.Results The technical success rate in the 57 patients was 100％,and no serious postoperative complications occurred.The mean follow-up time was(4.7±1.3)months(range of 3.4-7.2 months).The preoperative and the postoperative one-day,one-week,one-month and 3-month VAS scores in the combination therapy group were(7.39±1.09)points,(6.53±1.17)points,(1.94±0.70)points,(1.11±0.66)points and(1.39±0.59)points respectively,which in the pure POP therapy group were(7.52±1.01)points,(6.81±0.66)points,(3.38±0.65)points,(2.33±0.56)points and(2.52±0.50)points respectively.One week after operation,the VAS scores in the combination therapy group and the pure POP therapy group were decreased by(5.44±1.32)points and(4.14±0.96)points respectively.The differences in the postoperative one-week(t=-7.62,P＜0.01),one-month(t=-7.28,P＜0.01)and 3-month(t=-7.58,P＜0.01)VAS scores between the two groups were statistically significant.The preoperative and the postoperative one-day,one-week,one-month and 3-month ODI scores in the combination therapy group were(44.33±2.91)points,(44.08±2.82)points,(15.92±3.04)points,(14.00±2.39)points and(16.08±3.61)points respectively,which in the pure POP therapy group were(45.67±3.03)points,(45.14±2.80)points,(22.38±3.09)points,(19.76±2.99)points and(22.10±3.10)points respectively.One week after operation,the ODI score in the combination therapy group was decreased by(28.42±4.23)points,which in the pure POP therapy group was decreased by(23.29±4.28)points.The differences in the postoperative one-week(t=-7.50,P＜0.01),one-month(t=-7.37,P＜0.01)and 3-month(t=-6.51,P＜0.01)ODI scores between the two groups were statistically significant.The preoperative and the postoperative one-day,one-week,one-month and 3-month QOL scores in the combination therapy group were(24.69±3.92)points,(26.06±3.05)points,(38.67±3.00)points,(40.25±3.42)points and(39.58±3.99)points respectively,which in the pure POP therapy group were(24.43±3.53)points,(26.76±3.05)points,(32.81±2.17)points,(33.95±2.68)points and(31.19±4.27)points respectively.One week after operation,the QOL score in the combination therapy group was increased by(13.97±4.88)points,which in the pure POP therapy group was increased by(8.38±4.50)points.The differences in the postoperative one-week(t=8.34,P＜0.01),one-month(t=7.56,P＜0.01)and 3-month(t=7.18,P＜0.01)QOL scores between the two groups were statistically significant.The mean operation cost in the combination therapy group was 10 480.43 Chinese yuan,which was higher than that in the pure POP therapy group.Conclusion For the treatment of flat bone metastases,both pure POP therapy and MWA combined with POP therapy are clinically safe and effective,which can significantly relieve pain and improve quality of life.Compared with pure POP therapy,the MWA combined with POP therapy is more effective but its medical cost is more expensive.
