Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a common head and neck malignancy. Approximately 50% to 60% of patients with OSCC are diagnosed at a locally advanced stage (clinical staging III-IVa). Even with comprehensive and sequential treatment primarily based on surgery, the 5-year overall survival rate remains below 50%, and patients often suffer from postoperative functional impairments such as difficulties with speaking and swallowing. Programmed death receptor-1 (PD-1) inhibitors are increasingly used in the neoadjuvant treatment of locally advanced OSCC and have shown encouraging efficacy. However, clinical practice still faces key challenges, including the definition of indications, optimization of combination regimens, and standards for efficacy evaluation. Based on the latest research advances worldwide and the clinical experience of the expert group, this expert consensus systematically evaluates the application of PD-1 inhibitors in the neoadjuvant treatment of locally advanced OSCC, covering combination strategies, treatment cycles and surgical timing, efficacy assessment, use of biomarkers, management of special populations and immune related adverse events, principles for immunotherapy rechallenge, and function preservation strategies. After multiple rounds of panel discussion and through anonymous voting using the Delphi method, the following consensus statements have been formulated: 1) Neoadjuvant therapy with PD-1 inhibitors can be used preoperatively in patients with locally advanced OSCC. The preferred regimen is a PD-1 inhibitor combined with platinum based chemotherapy, administered for 2-3 cycles. 2) During the efficacy evaluation of neoadjuvant therapy, radiographic assessment should follow the dual criteria of Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 and immune RECIST (iRECIST). After surgery, systematic pathological evaluation of both the primary lesion and regional lymph nodes is required. For combination chemotherapy regimens, PD-L1 expression and combined positive score need not be used as mandatory inclusion or exclusion criteria. 3) For special populations such as the elderly (≥ 70 years), individuals with stable HIV viral load, and carriers of chronic HBV/HCV, PD-1 inhibitors may be used cautiously under the guidance of a multidisciplinary team (MDT), with close monitoring for adverse events. 4) For patients with a poor response to neoadjuvant therapy, continuation of the original treatment regimen is not recommended; the subsequent treatment plan should be adjusted promptly after MDT assessment. Organ transplant recipients and patients with active autoimmune diseases are not recommended to receive neoadjuvant PD-1 inhibitor therapy due to the high risk of immune related activation. Rechallenge is generally not advised for patients who have experienced high risk immune related adverse events such as immune mediated myocarditis, neurotoxicity, or pneumonitis. 5) For patients with a good pathological response, individualized de escalation surgery and function preservation strategies can be explored. This consensus aims to promote the standardized, safe, and precise application of neoadjuvant PD-1 inhibitor strategies in the management of locally advanced OSCC patients.

Objective To determine the prognostic biomarkers and new therapeutic targets of the lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), based on which to establish a prediction model for the survival of LUAD patients. Methods An integrative analysis was conducted on gene expression and clinicopathologic data of LUAD, which were obtained from the UCSC database. Subsequently, various methods, including screening of differentially expressed genes (DEGs), Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA), were employed to analyze the data. Cox regression and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression were used to establish an assessment model. Based on this model, we constructed a nomogram to predict the probable survival of LUAD patients at different time points (1-year, 2-year, 3-year, 5-year, and 10-year). Finally, we evaluated the predictive ability of our model using Kaplan-Meier survival curves, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, and time-dependent ROC curves. The validation group further verified the prognostic value of the model. Results The different-grade pathological subtypes' DEGs were mainly enriched in biological processes such as metabolism of xenobiotics by cytochrome P450, natural killer cell-mediated cytotoxicity, antigen processing and presentation, and regulation of enzyme activity, which were closely related to tumor development. Through Cox regression and LASSO regression, we constructed a reliable prediction model consisting of a five-gene panel (MELTF, MAGEA1, FGF19, DKK4, C14ORF105). The model demonstrated excellent specificity and sensitivity in ROC curves, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.675. The time-dependent ROC analysis revealed AUC values of 0.893, 0.713, and 0.632 for 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year survival, respectively. The advantage of the model was also verified in the validation group. Additionally, we developed a nomogram that accurately predicted survival, as demonstrated by calibration curves and C-index. Conclusion We have developed a prognostic prediction model for LUAD consisting of five genes. This novel approach offers clinical practitioners a personalized tool for making informed decisions regarding the prognosis of their patients.

Occlusal reconstruction is an important method of restoring a normal occlusal relationship to the natural dentition.The cor-rect choice of lateral occlusion scheme is necessary for physiological occlusal reconstruction.The main lateral occlusion schemes for the occlusal reconstruction of the natural dentition are canine protection and group function.This article reviews the effects of lateral occlu-sion schemes on the stomatognathic system and factors affecting the choice of lateral occlusion schemes in the occlusal reconstruction of natural dentition.According to the literature review,the lateral occlusion schemes affect the physiological functions of the stomatognath-ic system.Both lateral occlusion schemes have less impact on the temporomandibular joint.Group function produces greater EMG activi-ty,jaw movement velocity,and jaw lateral freedom than canine protection.The lateral occlusion schemes of the natural dentition should be selected according to the degree of lateral movement,types of static occlusion,and age of patients.For patients with Angle's ClassⅢ malocclusion,skeletal Class Ⅱ,Ⅲ malocclusion,and the elderly,group function is recommended,while canine protection is more recommended for young adults.For patients who eventually need to achieve canine protection,it is recommended to design group func-tion in the early stage of lateral movement,and gradually transition to canine protection with the increase of lateral movement.Thus,clinicians need to fully understand the influencing factors of lateral occlusion selection during occlusal reconstruction in natural denti-tion,providing a basis for the development of personalized diagnostic and treatment plans.

Objective To observe the clinical effect of doing Huatuo five-animal play treating blood-stasis-type silent myocardial ischemia(SMI)and its influence on coronary hemodynamics.Methods Ninety patients diagnosed as silent myocardial ischemia were randomly divided into a five-animal play group(n=45,age:51.56±11.00 years,24 males and 21 females)and a regular exercise group(n=45,age:52.44±7.19 years old,24 males and 21 females)according to a random number table.The five-animal play group practised the traditional five-animal play,while the regular exercise group con-ducted daily 30-minute moderate-intensity treadmill aerobic exercise,five times a week,for 4 weeks.The changes in the number of abnormal ST-T segment occurrences,myocardial oxygen consumption(CMO),coronary ischemia threshold(CIT),and blood smoothness index(BSD)within 24-hour ambu-latory electrocardiogram before and after the intervention were observed in both groups,with the thera-peutic effect and hemodynamic characteristics of both groups evaluated.Results The average number of ST-T segment abnormalities decreased after intervention in both groups(P<0.001),with significantly greater improvement in the five-animal play group than the regular exercise group(P<0.001).More-over,the average CMO decreased significantly,while the average CMR and BSD increased significant-ly in both groups after intervention(P<0.05),with significantly greater improvement in the five-ani-mal play group than the other group.Meanwhile,the total effective rate in the five-animal play group was significantly higher than the regular exercise group(P<0.01).Conclusion Undergoing the five-ani-mal play and moderate intensity treadmill aerobic exercise both are effective in treating silent myocardi-al ischemia.However,the former therapy is superior to the latter in bettering CMO,CIT and BSD.

Aim To predict and verify the potential mechanism of the compatibility of"ginseng-astragalus-pueraria"in protecting islet morphology and improving insulin resistance by using network pharmacology.Methods The active ingredients and targets of the horn medicine were obtained from three platforms:TC-MSP,TCMIP,and BATMAN.The targets of type 2 dia-betes mellitus(T2DM)were obtained from three plat-forms:TTD,OMIM,and disgeNET.The PPI network was constructed by using the STRING database and Cy-toscape 3.9.1;GO and KEGG analysis were per-formed;POCASA 1.1 was used to predict protein binding sites,and AutoDock Vina1.1.2 was used for docking and experimental verification.Results"Gin-seng-astragalus-pueraria"screened out 2 021 targets,of which 152 were closely related to T2DM,and 10 key genes and the AGE-RAGE signaling pathway were i-dentified.Molecular docking showed that quercetin had good binding to RAGE,INS,and PI3K.Experi-ments showed that the horn drug increased insulin binding rate and secretion index and reduced serum in-sulin level and insulin resistance index.These data benefited from"ginseng-astragalus-pueraria"reducing the expression of AGE-RAGE,activating PI3K-Akt,in-hibiting NF-κB,and reducing the expression of IL-6,IL-1β and TNF-α.Conclusion The study suggests that"ginseng-astragalus-pueraria"regulates the AGE-RAGE/PI3K-Akt/NF-κB signaling pathway,repairs damaged islet morphology,and improves insulin resist-ance.

Objective:To investigate the learning curves of gastroscopy and colonoscopy for surgeons.Methods:Clinical data of ordinary digestive endoscopy performed by gastrointestinal surgeons in Peking University People's Hospital from March, 2022 to March, 2024 were collected retrospectively. Learning curves were plotted according to the number of examinations and learning time, and the cumulative sum control chart method was used to determine the number of cases required to achieve proficiency in endoscopic examination.Results:Six gastrointestinal surgeons (sequentially) received training in gastroscopy and colonoscopy. All surgeons were male physicians with a doctoral degree and the professional title of attending physician. The average age was (33.0 ±1.9) years, and the average job tenure was (4.0±1.8) years. The median time required for proficiency in gastroscopy was 31 weeks, with a median number of cases of 624. Similarly, the median time required for proficiency in colonoscopy was also 31 weeks but with a median number of cases of 470.Conclusions:Surgeons need at least 31 weeks of independent operation to become proficient in endoscopic examination and more than 600 cases to be proficient in gastroscopy. Surgeons with gastroscopy experience also need 31 weeks of independent operation but at least 450 cases to become proficient in colonoscopy.

This study was aimed at establishing a method of ultra-fast quantitative PCR for Brucella detection.We used an exogenous recombinant plasmid as the internal reference and targeted the T4SS secretion system,an important Brucella viru-lence factor,to design specific primers and probes.The sensitivity,specificity,and repeatability of this method were evaluated,and a standard curve was constructed.The coincidence rate of detection findings with this method versus quantitative PCR was determined.This method markedly decreased the detection time to only 10 minutes.The standard curve demonstrated a good linear relationship(Y=-3.410 7x+38.357,R2=0.998 5)with a low minimum detection limit of 10 copies/μL.The method exhibited good specificity and did not specifically amplify several common clinical bacteria other than Brucella.The de-tection of three concentrations of positive plasmids yielded coefficients of variation(CVs)of 0.20％to 0.91％,thus demonstra-ting the method's excellent repeatability.Furthermore,140 clinical samples were analyzed concurrently with the fluorescence PCR method,which yielded a 100％compliance rate and consistent results.Our findings indicated that the Brucella ultra-fast quantitative PCR was ultrafast;had high sensitivity,high specificity,and good specificity;and can be used for the clinical de-tection of Brucella and emergency investigation of epidemics.Therefore,this method is valuable for the early diagnosis of Bru-cella.
