Objective To investigate the effect of differentdoses of oxycodone on postoperative recovery quality in elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.Methods Elderly patients scheduled for elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy at Mianyang Central Hospital from September 2023 to April 2024 were selected.Patients were randomly divided into group C,group O1 and group O2.Ten minutes before anesthesia induction,group O1 received intravenous oxycodone 0.05 mg·kg-1,group O2 received oxycodone 0.1 mg·kg-1,and group C received an equivalent volume of 0.9%sodium chloride.Observe and compare the scores of the Quality of Recovery-40(QoR-40)scale at 24 hours postoperatively,the Visual Analogue Scale(VAS)for pain at 10 minutes postoperatively and incidence of postoperative respiratory amnesia among the three groups.Multiple linear regression analysis was used to investigate the effect of hydrocodone on postoperative QoR-40 score.Results A total of 117 patients were included,39 in each group.According to the dropout criteria,a total of 34 cases were included in the group C,38 cases in group O1,and 38 cases in group O2.Compared to group C,group O1 and O2 showed significantly higher QoR-40 scores at 24 hours postoperatively(P<0.01),particularly in physical comfort,emotional state,independent functioning,and pain(P<0.05 or P<0.01).However,there was no significant difference between group O1 and O2(P>0.05).Both oxycodone groups had significantly lower 10-minute postoperative VAS scores than group C(P<0.05).Group O1 had a lower incidence of respiratory amnesia than group O2(P<0.05).Multivariate regression revealed that oxycodone use,age,postoperative nausea/vomiting,and 10-minute VAS scores collectively explained 69%of the variance in QoR-40 scores at postoperatively(adjusted R2=0.69),with oxycodone use significantly improving QoR-40 scores at postoperatively[β=9.336,95%CI(7.428,11.243),P<0.001].Conclusion Preoperative intravenous administration of oxycodone improves the quality of recovery in elderly patients after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.The incidence of postoperative respiratory amnesia was lower in 0.05 mg·kg-1 oxycodone dose group.

Objective To investigate the effect of intravenous flurbiprofen axetil on the incidence and severity of catheter-related bladder discomfort(CRBD)after transurethral resection of the prostate(TURP).Methods The elderly patients undergoing TURP under general anesthesia were enrolled,and randomly divided into two groups:flurbiprofen axetil group(group F)and control group(group C).Ten minutes before the end of surgery,group F was given 50 mg of flurbiprofen axetil intravenously,group C was given an equal amount of 0.9％sodium chloride injection.The primary outcome indicator was the incidence of moderate to severe CRBD immediately after entering the resuscitation room(T0).Secondary indicators included the incidence and severity of CRBD at 1 h(T1),2 h(T2),and 6 h(T3)after entering the resuscitation room,the amount of sufentanil used within 24 hours after surgery,postoperative NRS score,flurbiprofen axetil-related and analgesic adverse reactions 24 hours after surgery,and patient satisfaction.Results A total of 90 patients were included and each group was 45 patients.The incidence of moderate to severe CRBD at T0 was significantly lower in group F than that in group C(8.9％vs.33.3％,P=0.004).The incidence of CRBD in T1,T2,and T3 was lower in group F than in group C(P＜0.05).The incidence of mild CRBD at T3 in group F was lower than that in group C(P＜0.05).The incidence of moderate to severe CRBD at T1 and T2 in groups F was lower than that in group C(P＜0.05).The amount of sufentanil used in group F at 24 hours after surgery was significantly lower than that in group C(P=0.001).The pain scores in group F at T0,T1,T2,and T3 were lower than those in group C(P＜0.05);The postoperative patient satisfaction score in group F was higher than that in group C(P=0.001).However,there were no significant differences between the two groups in postoperative anesthesia resuscitation time and 24-hour adverse reactions incidence(P＞0.05).Conclusion Intravenous flurbiprofen axetil can safely and effectively reduce the incidence and severity of CRBD after TURP.It can significantly relieve pain,reduce sufentanil use,and have high clinical application value.

Objective:To summarize preliminary experience and outcomes of transoral robotic surgery (TORS) in hypopharyngeal cancer.Methods:Clinical data of 28 patients with hypopharyngeal cancer underwent TORS with Da Vinci Si or Xi surgical system in three medical centers(Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University and Eye & ENT Hospital of Fudan University) in China from Sep 2017 to Mar 2024 were respectively analyzed. All patients were males, aged from 47 to 82(62.5±7.1) years old. According to TNM staging of AJCC, the stages included T1 in 6 cases, T2 in 17 cases, T3 in 3 cases and T4 in 2 cases; N0 in 18 cases, N1 in 3 cases, N2 in 6 cases, N3 in 1 case. SPSS version 26 was applied, and with Kaplan-Meier surviving curves, overall survival, local control rate and disease-free survival for those patients were calculated.Results:All 28 patients underwent successfully their TORS, no any case with transfer opening or positive surgical margin. Two patients died within one month after surgery. Two patients experienced minor oral bleeding, and subsenquently was cured. The follow-up period ranged from 1 to 81 months, with an average of 24.8 months, in which, five patients(17.9%) died, five patients(17.9%) experienced local recurrence and four patients(14.3%) had distant metastases. The three year overall survival, local control rate and disease-free survival were 77.1%, 74.6% and 57.1%, respectively.Conclusion:In properly selected cases of hypopharyngeal cancer, TORS can offer acceptable survival and local control rates, which can be considered as a new useful option for the surgery of hypopharyngeal cancer.

Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI) has been considered as an inevitable process of liver transplantation. Hepatocyte ferroptosis is a key factor in HIRI development, yet precise mechanism and potential therapies are still unclear. Here, we demonstrated a strong correlation between hepatocyte ferroptosis and the downregulation of poly(rC)-binding protein (PCBP2), which compromised the stability of antiporter system Xc^- (consisted of SL3A2/SLC7A11). Besides, inhibiting PCBP2 contributed to facilitating cofactor p300 to enhance the transcriptional activity of HIF1α, leading to the expression and secretion of HMGB1. Then, released HMGB1 from ferroptotic hepatocytes worsened M1 macrophage recruitment and immune response during HIRI. Additionally, acteoside (ACT) was shown to assist PCBP2 in stabilizing the mRNA stability of Slc3a2 and Slc7a11, as well as enhance the binding affinity of PCBP2-system Xc^-. Beyond that, ACT also supported PCBP2 to limit HMGB1-induced M1 macrophage recruitment through imposing restrictions on p300 and HIF1α. Furthermore, specific knockdown of PCBP2 in hepatocytes directly interposed the therapeutic efficacy of ACT on HIRI mice. In conclusion, ACT alleviated hepatocyte ferroptosis and HIRI via promoting PCBP2 to maintain the stability of system Xc^- and limit HIF1α/p300-HMGB1 signaling. These findings highlight the therapeutic benefits of ACT in treating HIRI and offer insights into innovative therapeutic strategies.

Hepatic ischemia‒reperfusion injury (HIRI) is a common and inevitable complication of hepatic trauma, liver resection, or liver transplantation. It contributes to postoperative organ failure or tissue rejection, eventually affecting patient prognosis and overall survival. The pathological mechanism of HIRI is highly complex and has not yet been fully elucidated. The proposed underlying mechanisms include mitochondrial damage, oxidative stress imbalance, abnormal cell death, immune cell hyperactivation, intracellular inflammatory disorders and other complex events. In addition to serious clinical limitations, available antagonistic drugs and specific treatment regimens are still lacking. Therefore, there is an urgent need to not only clarify the exact etiology of HIRI but also reveal the possible reactions and bottlenecks of existing drugs, helping to reduce morbidity and shorten hospitalizations. We analyzed the possible underlying mechanism of HIRI, discussed various outcomes among different animal models and explored neglected potential therapeutic strategies for HIRI treatment. By thoroughly reviewing and analyzing the literature on HIRI, we gained a comprehensive understanding of the current research status in related fields and identified valuable references for future clinical and scientific investigations.

Giant cell tumors originating in the larynx are extremely rare. This article presents a case of a recurrent postoperative giant cell tumor of the larynx（GCTL）. The patient, a 28-year-old male, underwent a total thyroidectomy in June 2022 due to a thyroid mass. The postoperative pathological diagnosis was giant cell tumor of soft tissues. The patient was readmitted in June 2023 due to the recurrence of the neck mass and underwent partial laryngectomy and partial hypopharyngectomy to completely remove the tumor. Based on postoperative pathology, immunohistochemistry（H3.3 G34W+）, and genetic testing, the neck mass was ultimately diagnosed as GCTL. The patient did not receive radiotherapy or chemotherapy, and at the 12-month postoperative follow-up, there was no evidence of tumor recurrence.

Osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) is the most common complication of spinal osteoporosis, mostly occurring in thoracolumbar segment, which can cause acute and chronic pain at the fracture site and loss of vertebral height, and can lead to progressive kyphosis. For kyphosis caused by old OVCF, open surgery such as anterior or posterior decompression and fusion, internal fixation and osteotomy can improve local sequence and achieve satisfactory kyphotic correction which is difficult to complete in percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) and percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP), and reconstruct the sagittal balance. Due to the older age of OVCF patients, some of them have poor general conditions. In addition, osteoporosis leads to increased vertebral fragility, which increases the risk of surgery and postoperative internal fixation failure. The anterior approach presents some problems including a complex approach and poor mechanical stability. At present, most studies focus on posterior surgery. Due to the limitation of kyphosis correction by decompression and fixation alone, osteotomy is often required to correct kyphosis. In cases of old OVCF with kyphosis, the screw holding capability decreases due to the decrease of bone mineral density. Additionally, once the screw loosens, the orthopedic effect is inevitably affected. To enhance pedicle screws, most studies have utilized bone cement to increase the axial pullout force of the vertebral body and improve screw stability. The selection from different osteotomy methods is a critical determinant in achieving favorable surgical outcomes for patients.
