Objective:To compare the localization accuracy of interictal 18F-FDG and 18F-flumazenil (FMZ) PET/CT imaging for focal cortical dysplasia (FCD). Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 22 patients (12 males, 10 females; age 8-36 years) with pathologically confirmed FCD who underwent surgical resection at Huashan Hospital, Fudan University from July 2021 to June 2023. All patients underwent 18F-FDG and 18F-FMZ PET/CT scans before surgery. Surgical pathological diagnosis was used as the gold standard. Visual scoring was used to analyze the images. The accuracy of the two imaging methods in the localization of FCD was compared, and subgroup analysis (FCD Ⅱa, FCD Ⅱb) of different pathological type was further performed. Paired- t test, χ2 test or Fisher′s exact test was used to analyze the data. Results:The visual score of 18F-FMZ PET/CT was higher than that of 18F-FDG (3.00±0.82 vs 2.27±0.92; t=4.17, P=0.020). The accuracy of interictal 18F-FMZ PET/CT was 77.27%(17/22), which was higher than that of 18F-FDG PET/CT (36.36%, 8/22; χ2=7.50, P=0.006). Subgroup analysis showed that within the cohort of patients diagnosed with FCD Ⅱa ( n=18), 18F-FMZ PET/CT outperformed 18F-FDG in terms of accuracy for localization (15/18 vs 6/18; P=0.006). Conclusion:Compared to 18F-FDG, 18F-FMZ PET/CT demonstrates clearer and more accurate identification of lesion borders, and exhibits higher precision, which provides valuable guidance for preoperative localization.

Objective:To systematically search, evaluate and integrate the relevant evidence of nutrition management in breast cancer patients, and summarize the best evidence, so as to provide evidence for the clinical practice of nutrition management in breast cancer patients.Methods:Evidence-based nursing method was adopted. The BMJ Best Practice, Cochrane Library, etc. and websites were systematically searched for relevant clinical decisions, guidelines, expert consensus,etc. on nutrition management in breast cancer patients. The search period was from the establishment of the database to June 21, 2023. Three researchers independently evaluated the quality of the included literature and the level of evidence and recommendation.Results:A total of 17 pieces of literature were included, including 2 clinical decisions, 6 guidelines, 1 expert consensus and 8 systematic reviews. A total of 33 pieces of best evidence were summarized on 8 aspects, including objective, nutrition screening and assessment, nutrition management population, body mass index management, nutrient structure, diet type and quantity, the use of health products and nutritional supplements, and nutritional monitoring and follow-up.Conclusions:The study summarized the best evidence on nutrition management in breast cancer patients, and provided evidence-based basis for healthcare professionals to better manage nutrition in breast cancer patients. In the practical application of evidence, the differences in dietary habits, structures and religious beliefs of different regions and cultures should be considered, and the best evidence appropriate for individuals should be reasonably selected, taking patients′ own wishes and preferences into account, so as to provide more scientific and comprehensive nutrition management for breast cancer patients.

Objective:The treatment of head and neck in plexiform neurofibroma (PNF) is a major clinical problem, lacking consensus on surgical treatment, classification, operation timing, and treatment method. The purpose of this study was to provide a basis for further consensus formation by analyzing the clinical manifestations, surgical conditions, tumor recurrence, post-operation satisfaction, and changes in quality of life of patients undergoing PNF surgery in head and neck.Methods:Through medical record review and telephone follow-up, a retrospective analysis was conducted on neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) patients admitted for surgical treatment for PNF patient in head and neck from May 2012 to July 2022 in Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Shanghai Ninth People’s Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine. Complete collection and statistical analysis of patients’clinical data, using telephone follow-up to investigate the immediate postoperative satisfaction and long-term surgical satisfaction of patients and/or their families, as well as standardized quality of life questionnaires HRQol(health related quality of life) and PlexiQol(plexiform neurofibroma quality of life). Based on the data about changes in quality of life before and after surgery and long-term surgical satisfaction, patients were divided into surgical benefit and non-benefit groups. Binary and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the clinical characteristics of patients with long-term surgical benefit.Results:Totally 512 patients with head and neck NF1 were admitted for surgery with complete medical records. 121 patients were identified as NF1 related PNF diagnosed by medical history and radiological examination, and effective follow-up was obtained. There were 70 males and 51 females, aged (25.60±12.85) years old, ranging from 7 to 63 years old, with 41 patients who were ≤ 18 years old and 80 patients over 18 years old. 62.81%(76/121) of patients exhibiting clinical dysfunctions, and the tumor mass were mainly characterized by invasive growth. 41.32%(50/121) of patients underwent multiple surgical treatments, with a total of 215 surgeries performed on 121 patients. The surgical objective included appearance improvement and functional repair. The incidence of postoperative complications was 6.05%(13/215). The follow-up period after last operation was (51.41±27.66) months, and 42.15%(51/121) of patients reported postoperative tumor recurrence. 76.03%(92/121) of patients were satisfied with immediate postoperative result, while the rate decreased to 46.28%(56/121) during long-term follow-up. Family members of patients who were ≤ 18 years old had a higher proportion of dissatisfaction with the scars caused by surgery and a stronger willingness to undergo another surgery. The tumor recurrence was closely related to surgical benefits ( OR=2.32, P<0.05). Further analysis found that the gender and age of patients were the main risk factors for the recurrence. The recurrence risk in patients ≤ 18 years old was significantly higher than in that over 18 years old( OR=3.49, P=0.004), and the highest in the 7-12 year-old group, reaching 68.42%(13/19). The recurrence risk in male patients was significantly lower than that in females ( OR=0.40, P=0.026). Conclusion:The clinical manifestations of PNF patients in head and neck region are complex. Clinical diagnosis and treatment in PNF should focus on the applications in comprehensive method such as full preoperative evaluation, active multi-disciplinary treatment cooperation and combined therapies in order to improve the safety and effectiveness of treatment and reduce tumor recurrence.
