Intravascular large B-cell lymphoma(IVLBCL) is a rare and aggressive type of lymphoma with diverse and nonspecific clinical manifestations, often leading to misdiagnosis. This article reports a case of IVLBCL in a middle-aged male patient who initially presented with pulmonary arterial hypertension(PAH). The patient exhibited progressive hypoxemia and PAH, showing poor response to standard PAH therapy. Laboratory tests indicated a hyperinflammatory state and significantly elevated lactate dehydrogenase levels, while imaging revealed diffuse bilateral lung lesions. Random skin biopsy identified atypical B lymphocytes within subcutaneous capillaries, confirming the diagnosis of IVLBCL. Following treatment with the ZR-CHOP regimen, the patient's symptoms and laboratory parameters improved markedly. By reviewing relevant literature, this article systematically outlines the diagnostic and therapeutic process of this case, aiming to provide insights for the clinical recognition of such rare presentations.

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.

Objective To survey the free influenza vaccination status and willingness among the elderly in Deqing County,Zhejiang Province,and analyze the influencing factors.Methods Based on population data and the electronic medical system of Deqing County,the influenza vaccine coverage from 2018 to 2022 after the implementation of the free influenza vaccination policy was calculated.A proportional stratified random sampling method was used to select elderly individuals aged 60 and above from six streets/towns in Deqing County.A questionnaire survey was conducted to assess influenza vaccination behaviors from 2020 to 2022 and vaccination willingness for the 2023 influenza season.The chi-square test and logistic regression were used to analyze potential factors associated with vaccination behavior and subsequent willingness among the elderly.Results An average of influenza vaccines for the elderly per year were 56.2 thousand,with influenza vaccination coverage rate of 46.16%in average over the five years.Among 729 subjects,the vaccination rate increased from 69.3%in 2020 to 75.3%in 2022,and 81.9%of them were willing to receive influenza vaccines in the next flu season.Logistic regression analysis revealed that individuals with agricultural household registration(OR=3.05,95%CI:1.82-8.99),lower education levels(OR=2.82,95%CI:1.15-6.93),awareness of the free vaccine policy(OR=4.65,95%CI:1.82-11.91),and belief in vaccine efficacy(OR=6.61,95%CI:3.20-13.61)had higher vaccination rates.Factors associated with a more positive vaccination willingness included an annual household income of<150 thousand CNY(OR=1.65,95%CI:1.04-2.60),awareness of the free vaccine policy(OR=3.07,95%CI:1.84-5.12),perceived vaccine efficacy(OR=4.39,95%CI:2.77-6.96),and perceived vaccine safety(OR=1.57,95%CI:1.01-2.43).The main reasons for non-vaccination were concerned about the side effects of the vaccine(37.9%),thoughts that they were in good health and did not need to be vaccinated(30.3%),and influenza vaccines were ineffective(21.2%).The main reasons for vaccination were to protect themselves(89.1%),vaccination was free(65.5%)and to protect their families(60.6%).Conclusion The elderly in Deqing County had a relatively high influenza vaccination rate and follow-up vaccination willingness rate,but there still existed a gap to reach at target rate recommended by WHO.The local government should strengthen health education related to influenza vaccine knowledge,and publicize free vaccination policy to improve the vaccination rate and willingness in next season.

Objective To establish a UV method for the determination of the functional compositions(cinnamic acid derivatives,total flavonoids)in Ligustrum robustum,to predict the contents of trans-p-hydroxycinnamic acid,trans-p-hydroxycinnamic acid esters,and rhoifolin based on UV/HPLC,and to optimize the technological conditions of ultrasonic-assistant extraction of L.robustum.Methods ①In the determination of the functional compositions in L.robustum,total cinnamic acid derivatives were determined by dual-wavelength isobestic point UV method(detection wavelength 316 nm,reference wavelength 268 nm),and total flavonoids were determined by single-wavelength UV method(detection wavelength 268 nm),while rhoifolin was determined by HPLC(C 18 column,eluting with methanol-0.1％acetic acid=40∶60,detection wavelength 310 nm).②The conversion factors were used to establish a UV/HPLC-based prediction model,and the precision of the predicted results was evaluated with other 3 test samples.③ The technological conditions of ultrasonic-assisted extraction were optimized by an orthogonal test.Results ① The linear ranges of total cinnamic acid derivatives,total flavonoids,and rhoifolin were 4.64-20.88,8.24-28.84,5.15-51.50 μg·mL-1(r≥0.999 5),respectively.RSDs of the precision,stability,and reproducibility tests were no more than 1.4％.The recoveries were 97.9％-100.5％(RSD≤ 1.2％,n=6).②The relative errors of the values predicted by UV/HPLC from the results measured by HPLC were from-5.3％to 1.7％.There was no significant difference between the UV/HPLC predicted values and the HPLC determined results(P＞0.05)for the contents of trans-p-hydroxycinnamic acid and rhoifolin.③The optimal technological conditions of ultrasonic-assistant extraction of L.robustum were as follows:ethanol concentration 80％,temperature 50 ℃,liquid-solid ratio 20 mL·g 1,extraction frequency 2 times,extraction time 20 min.The total yield of functional compositions under above conditions was 42.0％.Conclusion The above determination methods are accurate and rapid,and the above extraction technology is effective,energy-saving and rapid,which provide an experimental base for the quality control and application of L.robustum.

Objective To develop a novel protective ventilator circuit component and to verify its performance by water seal and anti-splash experiments.Methods A novel protective ventilator circuit component had a design scheme with the multifunctional joint,and consisted of a tee connection tube,an isolation sleeve and a stop sleeve,of which,the tee connection tube was made of polyethylene polymer material and the others were made of silicone material.The tee connection tube had a T-shaped structure with two standard connection ports,which was composed of an adapter,a sealing cap,a plug and a sealing ring;the isolation sleeve was in the shape of a cylinder with a raised bottom,which was inserted into the adapter;the stop sleeve was located in the isolation sleeve,with an inverted frustum of a cone at the bottom and a rounded hole in the middle of the inverted frustum.An open ventilator circuit tube was involved in the performance verification of the circuit component developed.In the water seal experiment,sputum aspiration was simulated and the heights of the liquid level drop in the L-shaped tubes were compared after sputum aspiration.In the anti-splash experiment,the infection rates on the surfaces of the sterile hole towels and gloves were calculated.Results Water seal experiment showed after sputum aspiration the open ventilator circuit tube had the liquid level at the L-shaped tube higher significantly than that of the circuit component;the anti-splash experiment indicated sputum aspiration resulted in the occurance of the splashing out of the secretion and 77.5%infection rate by the open ventilator circuit tube,while no splashing out and 0%infection rate by the circuit component developed.Conclusion The novel protective ventilator circuit component behaves well in sealing and anti-splashing,and thus is worthy of clinical application for sputum aspiration.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(4):113-117]

Recent studies have shown that the physiological homeostasis of oral mucosal cells is regulated by the circadian clock.Dis-ruption or dysfunction of the circadian clock is closely associated with the development of oral squamous cell carcinoma(OSCC).Research based on the circadian clock offers a novel perspective on the pathogenesis and therapeutic strategies for OSCC.However,there is current-ly limited research on this topic,and people generally have insufficient understanding and recognition of the circadian clock.Given the complexity and challenges of circadian clock which is the fourth dimension of medical research,we organize relevant experts based on summarizing the current research results of circadian clock in the pathogenesis and precision diagnosis and treatment of OSCC,combining the scientific principles of the circadian clock's role and their long-term research experience,then summarizes and recommends the con-sensus opinions for the research of circadian clock in the pathogenesis mechanism and precision diagnosis and treatment of human OSCC,with the hope of providing guidance for the basic research and clinical application of circadian clock or circadian rhythm in the pathogene-sis mechanism and precision diagnosis and treatment of oral and maxillofacial squamous cell carcinoma.
