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.

Autophagy is a cellular self-degradation process essential for maintaining metabolic functions in cells and organisms.Dysfunc-tional autophagy has been linked to various diseases,including cancer.The m6A modification,a major RNA modification in eukaryotes,plays a crucial role in regulating autophagy in tumor cells by regulating the expression of autophagy-associated genes(ATGs)or interfering with autophagy-related signaling pathways.Aberrant m6A modification can lead to dysregulated autophagy and impact tumor progression.However,the specific role of m6A in regulating tumor autophagy remains to be explored.Therefore,in this review,we discuss the role of m6A modification in tumor cell autophagy and examine its relationship with tumor progression and drug resistance,aiming to provide a the-oretical foundation for developing new therapeutic strategies.

Objective:To compare the role and efficacy of serum Helicobacter pylori ( HP) antibody combined with pepsinogen (PG) (ABC method), serum PG combined with gastrin-17 (G-17) (new ABC method) and a new gastric cancer screening scoring system for early gastric cancer screening in healthy people. Methods:Serological examinations were performed on healthy people who underwent physical examination and gastroscopy at the Physical Examination Center of Shanghai Songjiang District Central Hospital from January 2019 to December 2021. The population were divided into low-risk population, medium-risk population and high-risk population based on the above three primary screening methods for gastric cancer. Using gastroscopy and biopsy pathology as the gold standard, the ratio of each risk stratification and the detection rate of gastric cancer of the three screening methods were calculated. Advantages and disadvantages of the three methods were evaluated.Results:A total of 3 199 people who completed physical examination and gastroscopy were included in the study. Ten cases (0.31%) of esophageal cancer were detected by endoscopy, all of whom were early esophageal cancer. Thirty-seven cases (1.16%) of gastric cancer were detected,and the detection rate of early gastric cancer was 86.49%(32/37). The three gastric cancer screening methods were used to evaluate the risk of gastric cancer. According to ABC method, there were 1 853 cases (7.92%) in the low-risk group, 1 339 cases (41.86%) in the medium-risk group, and 7 cases (0.22%) in the high-risk group. The detection rates of gastric cancer were 0.97% (18/1 853), 1.42% (19/1 339), and 0.00%, respectively. According to the new ABC method, there were 2 362 cases (73.84%) in the low-risk group, 804 cases (25.13%) in the medium-risk group, and 33 cases (1.03%) in the high-risk group. The detection rates of gastric cancer were 1.14% (27/2 362), 1.24% (10/804), and 0.00%, respectively. According to the new gastric cancer screening scoring system, there were 1 448 cases (45.26%) in the low-risk group, 1 213 cases (37.92%) in the medium-risk group and 538 cases (16.82%) in the high-risk group. The detection rates of gastric cancer were 0.28% (4/1 448), 1.32% (16/1 213) and 3.16% (17/538), respectively. The detection rate of gastric cancer in the medium- and high-risk groups in total was significantly higher than that in the low-risk group with significant difference ( χ 2=17.935, P<0.001). The ROC curve showed that the AUC of the ABC method, the new ABC method and the new gastric cancer screening scoring system were 0.546, 0.503 and 0.760, respectively. The AUC of the new gastric cancer screening scoring system was significantly higher than those of the ABC method and the new ABC method, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.001). Conclusion:The detection rate of gastric cancer in the medium- and high-risk groups of the new gastric cancer screening scoring system is higher than that of the low-risk group, and the missed diagnosis rate of the new gastric cancer screening scoring system is lower than those of the ABC method and the new ABC method. The screening score is of high value for early gastric cancer screening in the healthy population.

To evaluate the clinical value of a new method of guide wire extraction and single reverse-α fixation with short nasobiliary duct for oronasal conversion and fixation, patients who underwent endoscopic nasobiliary drainage in Shanghai East Hospital, Tongji University from January to August 2022 were selected. They were randomly divided into guide wire extraction and single reverse-α fixation with short nasobiliary duct group (the observation group, n=145) and guide wire taking and reverse-α fixation group (the control group, n=71). The operation time, one-time operation success rate, adverse events, comfort and satisfaction between the two groups were compared. The operation time in the observation group was significantly shorter than that in the control group [102 ( 91, 117) s VS 136 (127, 145) s, Z=-9.639, P<0.001]. The one-time operation success rate in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [88.28% (128/145) VS 67.61% (48/71), χ2=13.496], the nasopharynx stimulation score [1 (1, 2) VS 2 (1, 2), Z=-4.457] and adverse events incidence [4.14% (6/145) VS 15.49% (11/71), χ2=8.475] in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P<0.05). During the indwelling of nasobiliary duct, the bile drainage volume (179.45±81.54 mL VS 142.89±55.69 mL, t=3.407) and nursing satisfaction score (7.72±0.99 VS 6.06±1.07, t=11.337) in the observation group were higher than those in the control group, and the comfort score (3.00±1.01 VS 4.83±0.99, t=-12.642) and incidence of adverse events [3.45% (5/145) VS 14.08% (10/71), χ2=8.344] in the observation group were lower than those in the control group ( P<0.05). The operation time of nasobiliary duct removal in the observation group was significantly shorter than that in the control group (9.00±1.14 s VS 11.93±1.36 s, t=-16.616, P<0.001). In conclusion, the guide wire extraction and single reverse-α fixation with short nasobiliary duct for nasobiliary oronasal conversion and fixation in endoscopic nasobiliary drainage has the advantages of simple operation, small irritation response and low complication incidence, which is worth of clinical promotion.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors of bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD)in very preterm infants(VPI), and to provide scientific basis for the prevention and treatment of BPD in VPI.Methods:A prospective multicenter study was designed to collect the clinical data of VPI in department of neonatology of 28 hospitals in 7 regions from September 2019 to December 2020.According to the continuous oxygen dependence at 28 days after birth, VPI were divided into non BPD group and BPD group, and the risk factors of BPD in VPI were analyzed.Results:A total of 2 514 cases of VPI including 1 364 cases without BPD and 1 150 cases with BPD were enrolled.The incidence of BPD was 45.7%.The smaller the gestational age and weight, the higher the incidence of BPD( P<0.001). Compared with non BPD group, the average birth age, weight and cesarean section rate in BPD group were lower, and the incidence of male infants, small for gestational age and 5-minute apgar score≤7 were higher( P<0.01). In BPD group, the incidences of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome(NRDS), hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus, retinopathy of prematurity, feeding intolerance, extrauterine growth restriction, grade Ⅲ~Ⅳ intracranial hemorrhage, anemia, early-onset and late-onset sepsis, nosocomial infection, parenteral nutrition-associated cholestasis were higher( P<0.05), the use of pulmonary surfactant(PS), postnatal hormone exposure, anemia and blood transfusion were also higher, and the time of invasive and non-invasive mechanical ventilation, oxygen use and total hospital stay were longer( P<0.001). The time of starting enteral nutrition, cumulative fasting days, days of reaching total enteral nutrition, days of continuous parenteral nutrition, days of reaching 110 kcal/(kg·d) total calorie, days of reaching 110 kcal/(kg·d) oral calorie were longer and the breastfeeding rate was lower in BPD group than those in non BPD group( P<0.001). The cumulative doses of amino acid and fat emulsion during the first week of hospitalization were higher in BPD group( P<0.001). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that NRDS, invasive mechanical ventilation, age of reaching total enteral nutrition, anemia and blood transfusion were the independent risk factors for BPD in VPI, and older gestational age was the protective factor for BPD. Conclusion:Strengthening perinatal management, avoiding premature delivery and severe NRDS, shortening the time of invasive mechanical ventilation, paying attention to enteral nutrition management, reaching whole intestinal feeding as soon as possible, and strictly mastering the indications of blood transfusion are very important to reduce the incidence of BPD in VPI.

Objective:To study the effects of total flavonoids from Baeckea frutescens on the proliferation, migration, invasion, apoptosis and cell morphology changes of cervical cancer SiHa cells.Methods:Cervical cancer SiHa cells were treated with different concentrations of total flavonoids from Baeckea frutescens. CCK8 method was used to detect the proliferation and 50% inhibiting concentration (IC 50) of SiHa cells in vitro. The control group without drug treatment and the experimental group with drug concentration IC 50 were set. Transwell migration and invasion experiments were used to detect the changes of cell migration and invasion ability in vitro in the experimental group and the control group. Laser scanning confocal microscope was adopted for observing the morphological changes of apoptosis in the experimental group and the control group. Flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis rates of the experimental group and the control group. Results:Total flavonoids from Baeckea frutescens inhibited the proliferation of cervical cancer SiHa cells in a concentration-dependent manner. After 48 hours of action, the IC 50 value was 110.8 mg/L. In the migration experiment, the number of transmembrane cells in the control group was 644.00±10.54 and the number of transmembrane cells in the experimental group was 266.00±5.57, with a statistically significant difference ( t=54.942, P<0.001). In the invasion experiment, the number of transmembrane cells in the control group was 298.00±14.36, and the number of transmembrane cells in the experimental group was 85.00±8.62, with a statistically significant difference ( t=38.247, P<0.001). Laser scanning confocal microscope observation showed that in the experimental group, the cell membrane crumpled and lost its original morphology, and the nucleus showed typical apoptotic morphologies such as fragments of different sizes and irregular shapes, and nuclear edge aggregation; but no apoptotic cells were observed in the control group. Flow cytometry showed that the apoptosis rate in the control group was (2.95±1.36)%, and the apoptosis rate in the experimental group was (27.54±1.94)%, with a statistically significant difference ( t=-17.949, P<0.001). Conclusion:Total flavonoids from Baeckea frutescens have obvious inhibitory effects on the proliferation, migration and invasion of cervical cancer SiHa cells cultured in vitro, and promote their apoptosis.

Objective:To explore the status of HBV infection, immune response to hepatitis B vaccine and its influencing factors of one-year old children born to HBV infected mothers in real world.Methods:In this cross-sectional study, eligible mothers infected with chronic HBV and children who completed standard vaccination against hepatitis B vaccine and hepatitis B immunoglobulin injection were selected. Clinical biochemical, virological measurements, data of antiviral therapy and complications during pregnancy and childbirth were collected by HIS(Hospital Information System)system and LIS (Laboratoty Information Management System) system. At one year of age, the children were tested for HBsAg, HBsAb and HBV DNA in venous blood specimens.Results:A total of 1 302 eligible mothers and children were collected, including 600 in high viral load group (mothers’ HBV DNA≥2×10 5 IU/ml) and 702 in low viral load group (mothers’ HBV DNA<2×10 5 IU/ml). In high viral load group, 587 patients received antiviral drugs in the middle or late trimester (Treated group) and 13 patients did not receive antiviral drugs (Untreated group). No chronic HBV infection occurred in children of low viral load group, and in 5 cases (0.83%) the infection occurred in high viral load group. In the five HBV infected children, 3 cases (0.51%) were in the treated group, and 2 cases (15.38%) in untreated group. The failure rate of mother-to-child blocking in low viral load group was significantly lower than that in high viral load group ( χ2=5.87, P=0.015), and it was significantly lower in treated group than that in untreated group ( χ2=29.195, P=0.001). The percentages of HBsAb level <10 mIU/ml, 10- <100 mIU/ml and ≥100 mIU/ml in 1 297 children without HBV infection were 1.15%, 15.65% and 83.19%, respectively. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that maternal total bilirubin level and hypothyroidism during pregnancy were correlated with HBsAb level at 1 year of age ( χ2=29.003, P <0.05). Conclusions:Antiviral drugs taken during pregnancy by pregnant women with high HBV viral load can significantly reduce mother-to-child transmission of HBV. Follow-up on the response of children born to HBV-infected mothers to hepatitis B vaccine should be enhanced after birth.

Objective:To explore the application effect of high-efficiency steam cleaner in cleaning cerebral pressure tube.Methods:A total of 3 000 cerebral pressure tubes recovered in the First Department of Disinfection and Supply Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from October 1, 2019, to March 31, 2020, were selected for analysis. According to different cleaning methods, they were divided into the observation group, the control group A and control group B, with 1 000 in each group. The observation group used enzyme solution immersion combined with the high-efficiency steam cleaner to clean, the control group A used enzyme solution immersion to clean, and the control group B used enzyme solution immersion combined with the ultrasonic cleaner to clean. The cleaning time, qualified cleaning quantity, cleaning safety, residual gas and item damage of the three cleaning methods were compared.Results:The cleaning time of cerebral pressure tubes in the observation group was (8.75±1.16) min, which was lower than that of the control group A (12.38±1.35) min and the control group B (10.17±2.09) min, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01) . The number of qualified and safe cleaning of cerebral pressure tubes in the observation group was more than those of the control group A and the control group B, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . The amount of residual gas and the number of goods damaged of the cerebral pressure tubes in the observation group were less than those of the control group A and the control group B, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The high-efficiency steam cleaner has a better effect on cleaning the cerebral pressure tube and is suitable for popularization and application.

Clinical data of 113 patients with non-alcoholic fat liver disease (NAFLD) diagnosed by liver biopsy from January 2015 to January 2017 in Taizhou People's Hospital were retrospectively reviewed . Patients all underwent transient elastographic ( TE) examination and the values of fat attenuation index (FAI) were obtained.The hepatocyt fatty changes in pathological examination were scored as 0 (＜5%, n＝40), 1 (5%-33%,n ＝27), 2 (34% -66%,n ＝28) and 3 (＞66%, n ＝18).There were significant differences in AST , Glu, TC and FAI among patients with hepatocyte fatty change scores 0, 1, 2 and 3, and the FAI was significantly correlated with the degree of fatty liver disease .The areas under the ROC curve (AUCs) of FAI in patients with hepatocyte fatty change scores 1, 2 and 3 were 0.78, 0.90 and 0.96, respectively.Logistic regression analysis showed that FAI was correlated with TG , TC and BMI.The results suggest that FAI in TE can be a non-invasive, rapid and objective evaluation method for patients with NAFLD.
