Radiochemotherapy-induced oral mucositis (OM) is a common oral complication in patients with tumors following head and neck radiotherapy or chemotherapy. Erosion and ulcers are the main features of OM that seriously affect the quality of life of patients and even the progress of tumor treatment. To date, differences in clinical prevention and treatment plans for OM have been noted among doctors of various specialties, which has increased the uncertainty of treatment effects. On the basis of current research evidence, this expert consensus outlines risk factors, clinical manifestations, clinical grading, ancillary examinations, diagnostic basis, prevention and treatment strategies and efficacy indicators for OM. In addition to strategies such as basic oral care, anti-inflammatory and analgesic agents, anti-infective agents, pro-healing agents, and photobiotherapy recommended in previous guidelines, we also emphasize the role of traditional Chinese medicine in OM prevention and treatment. This expert consensus aims to provide references and guidance for dental physicians and oncologists in formulating strategies for OM prevention, diagnosis, and treatment, standardizing clinical practice, reducing OM occurrence, promoting healing, and improving the quality of life of patients.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Shugan Tiaoshen Acupuncture in the treatment of mild-to-moderate perimenopausal depressive disorder(PDD).Methods A total of 66 patients with mild-to-moderate PDD were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group,with 33 cases in each group.The observation group was treated with Shugan Tiaoshen Acupuncture,and the control group was treated with conventional western medicine for 8 weeks.After 2 months of treatment,the clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated,and the changes in Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD-17)scores before and after treatment,as well as the scores of Menopausal Quality of Life Scale(MENQOL)were observed in the two groups.The changes in serum luteinising hormone(LH),follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH)and oestradiol(E2)levels were compared before and after treatment between the two groups,and the safety and the occurrence of adverse reactions in the two groups were evaluated.Results(1)During the study,3 cases in the observation group and 2 cases in the control group were lost to followup.Finally,30 cases in the observation group and 31 cases in the control group were included in the efficacy statistics.(2)After treatment,the total score of HAMD-17 and the scores of each factor in the two groups were significantly improved(P＜0.05),and the total score of HAMD-17 and the scores of anxiety/somatization factor and sleep factor in the observation group were significantly superior to those in the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).(3)After treatment,the total score of MENQOL and the scores of vascular dimension,physiological dimension and sexual life dimension in the two groups were significantly improved(P＜0.05),and the total score of HAMD-17 and the scores of vascular dimension and physiological dimension in the observation group were significantly superior to those in the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).(4)After treatment,the levels of LH,FSH and E2 in the two groups were significantly improved(P＜0.05),and the improvement of LH,FSH and E2 levels in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P＜0.05).(5)The total effective rate was 93.33%(28/30)in the observation group and 74.19%(23/31)in the control group.The curative effect of the observation group was superior to that of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＞0.05).Conclusion Shugan Tiaoshen Acupuncture in the treatment of mild-to-moderate PDD can significantly improve the clinical symptoms of patients,improve the quality of life of patients,regulate the level of sex hormones,and have a significant effect.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors for late-onset hemorrhagic cystitis(LOHC)after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT),the risk factors for the progression of LOHC to severe LOHC,and the effect of LOHC on survival.Methods:The clinical data of 300 patients who underwent allo-HSCT at the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from January 2015 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.The relevant clinical parameters that may affect the occurance of LOHC after allo-HSCT were selected for univariate and multivariate analysis.Then,the differences in overall survival(OS)and progression-free survival(PFS)between different groups were analyzed.Results:The results of multivariate analysis showed that the independent risk factors for LOHC after allo-HSCT were as follows:age≤45 years old(P=0.039),intensified conditioning regimen with fludarabine/cladribine and cytarabine(P=0.002),albumin ≤ 30 g/L on d30 after transplantation(P=0.007),CMV-DNA positive(P=0.028),fungal infection before transplantation(P=0.026),and the occurrence of grade Ⅱ-Ⅳ aGVHD(P=0.006).In the transplant patients who have already developed LOHC,the occurance of LOHC within 32 days after transplantation(P=0.008)and albumin ≤ 30 g/L on d30 after transplantation(P=0.032)were independent risk factors for the progression to severe LOHC.The OS rate of patients with severe LOHC was significantly lower than that of patients without LOHC(P=0.041).Conclusion:For the patients aged ≤ 45 years old and with intensified conditioning regimen,it is necessary to be vigilant about the occurrence of LOHC;For the patients with earlier occurrence of LOHC,it is necessary to be vigilant that it develops into severe LOHC.Early prevention and treatment of LOHC are essential.Regular monitoring of CMV-DNA and albumin levels,highly effective antiviral and antifungal therapies,and prevention of aGVHD are effective measures to prevent the occurrence and development of LOHC.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors of primary poor graft function (PGF) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in patients with myeloid malignancies and the impact of primary PGF on survival. Methods:The clinical data of 146 patients with myeloid malignancies who underwent allo-HSCT in our hospital from January 2015 to December 2021 were retrospectively studied. Some relevant clinical parameters which may affect the development of primary PGF after allo-HSCT were selected for univariate and multivariate analysis,as well as performed survival analysis. Results:A total of 9 patients (6.16％) were diagnosed with primary PGF,and their medium age was 37(28-53) years old. Among them,1 case underwent matched sibling donor HSCT,1 case underwent matched unrelated donor HSCT,and 7 cases underwent HLA-haploidentical related donor HSCT. Moreover,5 cases were diagnosed as cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection,and 3 cases as Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. Univariate and multivariate analysis showed that CD34+cell dose<5×106/kg and pre-transplant C-reactive protein (CRP)>10 mg/L were independent risk factors for occurrence of the primary PGF after allo-HSCT in patients with myeloid malignancies. The 3-year overall survival (OS) rate of primary PGF group was 52.5％,which was significantly lower than 82.8％ of good graft function group (P<0.05). Conclusion:Making sure pre-transplant CRP≤10 mg/L and CD34+cell dose ≥5×106/kg in the graft may have an effect on preventing the occurrence of primary PGF after allo-HSCT. The occurrence of primary PGF may affect the OS rate of transplant patients,and early prevention and treatment are required.

The health insurance fund acts as the resource for the survival of medical institutions.However,it has shown a development trend of structural friction in the county.By analyzing the relationship between strategic purchasing and the function of health insurance system,this study clarifies the central position of payment and the roles of fund allocation and service compensation.By analyzing the reasons of the imbalance between the health insurance fund and primary services in the county,this study proposes that the strategic purchasing of health care services in the county needs to take into account both the front-end of payment-allocation,and the front-end of service--primary.On this basis,this study put forwards the strategic purchasing of primary health services,which aims to cut off the fund"competition"channel between hospitals and primary health care institutions by changing the fund distribution method;to guide the primary health care to proactively identify and satisfy the changes of the county's residents'service needs by adjusting the service compensation method;and supplemented with joint advocacy and collaborative supervision.The strategic purchasing of primary health services will gradually promote the development of primary health services in the county from sustainable to high-quality.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the efficacy and safety of matched sibling donor allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in the treatment of young patients with multiple myeloma (MM). METHODS: The clinical data of 8 young patients (median age：46 years) with MM who underwent allo-HSCT from HLA-indentical sibling donors in the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from June 2013 to September 2021 were collected, and their survival and prognosis were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS: All the patients were successfully transplanted, and 7 patients could be evaluated the efficacy after transplantation. The median follow-up time was 35.2 (2.5-84.70) months. The complete response (CR) rate was 2/8 before transplantation and 6/7 after transplantation. Acute GVHD developed in 2 cases and extensive chronic GVHD developed in 1 case. Within 100 days, 1 case died of non-recurrent events, and 1-year and 2-year disease-free survival were 6 and 5 cases, respectively. At the end of follow-up, all the 5 patients who survived for more than 2 years survived, and the longest disease-free survival time has reached 84 months. CONCLUSION With the development of new drugs, HLA-matched sibling donor allo-HSCT may be a curable treatment for young patients with MM.
