Objective To investigate the protective effect of electrical stimulation-induced auditory brainstem response(EABR)monitoring on the cochlear nerve pathway during acoustic neuroma surgery.Methods The data of 36 patients who underwent acoustic neuroma surgery were studied,all surgeries were performed using the middle fossa approach.Among them,18 cases were monitored intraoperatively using EABR monitoring 4 times as the mo-nitoring group,while the other 18 cases underwent surgery without monitoring as the control group.The monito-ring group,preoperatively,there were 7 ears classified as grade A,6 ears as grade B,and 5 ears as grade C.The preoperative pure tone average thresholds(0.5,1.0,2.0,4.0 kHz)were 37.60±16.95 dB HL,and the maximum tumor diameter was 13.76±4.37 mm.The control group,preoperatively,there were 4 ears classified as grade A,7 ears as grade B,and 7 ears as grade C.The preoperative pure tone average was 46.80±22.64 dB HL,and the max-imum tumor diameter was 13.74±4.26 mm.Results In the monitoring group,except for the first monitoring,the V-wave evoked rate was 72.22%(13/18),and for the remaining three times,it was 100.00%(18/18).The mini-mum current stimulation intensity that could evoke the V-wave was 0.5 mA,and the V-wave latency was 3.97±0.17 ms.Follow-up was conducted for both groups of patients within 1 to 3 months postoperatively.In the monito-ring group,there were 7 ears classified as grade A,4 ears as grade B,4 ears as grade C,and 3 ears as grade D.Among them,3 patients experienced hearing loss after surgery,and the postoperative pure tone average was 52.20±38.35 dB HL.In the control group,there was 1 ear classified as grade A,1 ear as grade B,6 ears as grade C,and 10 ears as grade D.Among them,10 patients experienced hearing loss after surgery,and the postoperative pure tone average was 90.90±37.28 dB HL.Conclusion EABR monitoring during the resection of acoustic neuroma not only has positive significance for improving the hearing protection rate of acoustic neuroma surgery,but also assists the surgeons in identifying the cochlear nerve during surgery.The integrity of the auditory nerve pathway is protec-ted to the greatest extent for possible cochlear implanting.

Objective:To evaluate the safety of neoadjuvant therapy with pembrolizumab combined with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and cisplatin in patients with advanced temporal bone squamous cell carcinoma (TBSCC), and its impact on tumor response rate and disease-free survival (DFS).Methods:This prospective, single-arm, open-label clinical study enrolled patients with advanced (Stage Ⅲ/Ⅳ) TBSCC from Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital. Patients received 2-3 cycles of neoadjuvant therapy with pembrolizumab, 5-FU, and cisplatin, followed by definitive surgery. Postoperatively, patients received 6 cycles of pembrolizumab combined with radiotherapy. The primary endpoint was the 2-year disease-free survival (DFS) rate. Secondary endpoints included objective response rate (ORR) and safety indicators. Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Adverse events (AE) were assessed using the National Cancer Institute′s Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), version 5.0. Statistical analyses were conducted using SPSS software, version 22.0.Results:From August 2021 to April 2024, 16 patients with advanced TBSCC were enrolled (13 males and 3 females), with a median age of 54 years and a median follow-up time of 2.32 years. Following neoadjuvant therapy, the objective response rate (ORR) was 64.3% (9/14), and the disease control rate (DCR) was 92.9% (13/14). The 2-year DFS rate was 86.6%. Common treatment-related adverse events (TRAE) included leukopenia (56.3%, 9/16), nausea and vomiting (50.0%, 8/16), diarrhea, oral mucositis, and elevated liver function tests (25.0%, 4/16). One patient (6.25%) experienced a grade 3 adverse event.Conclusion:Neoadjuvant pembrolizumab-chemotherapy significantly enhances objective response rate and disease-free survival in advanced TBSCC.

With the development of society and economy, the disease spectrum of Chinese residents has undergone a major change, and the public health emergencies have occasionally occurred. The new situation has put forward higher requirements on the emergency capacity, professional technical level and treatment quality of critical care treatment system. Combining with the advantages of hospital aviation, ground and Internet emergency, Henan Provincial People's Hospital established a new construction path of emergency and critical care treatment system, namely "trinity" rescue system of aviation, ground and Internet emergency treatment and the "five-ring" model of critical care treatment system in hospital. The purpose of this paper is to summarize the practical experience of the construction of emergency and critical care system in Henan Provincial People's Hospital, so as to provide reference for the management of emergency and critical care in China.

OBJECTIVE Aim to explore the value and the selection of observation target of P1 component in children with cochlear implant(CI). METHODS 13 children(4.37±0.73 years old) with right side CI and one year of regular post-CI rehabilitation were recruited as CI group. 15 gender and age (4.25±0.84)years matched children with left side external and middle ear malformation were selected as control group. We collected their AEP which showed their reaction to 1000 Hz pure tone and analyzed the P1 component. RESULTS The cut off value between CI group and control groupwas 10.4mV for P1 Amplitude(P1A) and 110.5 mV for P1 Latency(P1L). More precisely, the values of CI group were above the cut off value while the values of control group were below it. Whether choosing P1A or P1L as dividing standard, the AUC were between 0.5 and 0.9(AUC: P1A0.733, P1L0.800), which showed medium distinguishing significance. P1L component showed greater You-den index(0.590>0.471) and sensitivity(0.923> 0.538) while P1A showed greater specificity(0.933>0.667). CONCLUSION P1L shows greater ability in distinguishing the difference between CI group and control group while P1A has advantage in determining their common feature. Generally, P1L shows higher value in studying CI children. We need to make choice between P1A and P1L in different situation and use P1A and P1L standard in series or parallel.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of epidemic and genotype/subtype distribution of hepatitis C virus (HCV) among entry travelers at Tengchong port,to provide references for HCV prophylaxis and treatment.Methods A total of 54 serum samples were collected from anti-HCV positive travelers at Tengchong port from June 2009 to June 2016.HCV NS5B gene was amplified using reverse transcription polyonerase chain reation (RT-PCR) and subsequently sequenced.Based on the obtained sequences and retrieved reference sequences,phylogenetic analysis was conducted to determine HCV genotype/subtype.Results HCV infection rate among entry travelers at Tengchong ports was 0.45 % (54/12 059).Forty five samples were successfully genotyped.Phylogenetically,HCV genotype 3b was revealed to be the predominant subtype (28.89 %,13/45) in this population,followed by genotype 6n (20.0%,9/45),genotype 1b (17.78%,8/45),genotype 3a (13.33%,6/45),genotype 2a (11.11%,5/45),genotype 1a (2.22%,1/45) and genotype 6a (2.22%,1/45).The major genotype in Myanmar travelers was genotype 6,while in Chinese population,genotype 1 predominated.Genotype 6 in the population showed close phylogenetic relationship with strains prevalent in China and Southeast Asia.Genotype 3 was closely clustered with strains prevalent in China.Conclusions The distribution of HCV genotypes among entry travelers at Tengchong port is impacted by HCV epidemic strains both in Yunnan province and neighboring regions.This population serves as a transmitting media which may influence the epidemiological characteristics of HCV in Tengchong and neighboring areas.
