Objective:The nasal swell body（NSB） consists of the nasal septal cartilage, nasal bone, and swollen soft tissue, all of which are visible during endoscopic and imaging examinations. Although the function of the NSB remains uncertain, there is evidence to suggest that it plays a vital role in regulating nasal airflow and filtering inhaled air. Based on anatomical and histological evidence, it is hypothesized that the NSB is indispensable in these processes. This study aims to investigate the impact of NSB on nasal aerodynamics and the deposition of allergen particles under physiological conditions. Methods:The three-dimensional （3D） nasal models were reconstructed from computed tomography （CT） scans of the paranasal sinus and nasal cavity in 30 healthy adult volunteers from Northwest China, providing basis for the construction of models without NSB following virtual NSB-removal surgery. To analyze the distribution of airflow in the nasal cavity, nasal resistance, heating and humidification efficiency, and pollen particle deposition rate at various anatomical sites, we employed the computed fluid dynamics（CFD） method for numerical simulation and quantitative analysis. In addition, we created fully transparent segmented nasal cavity models through 3D printing, which were used to conduct bionic experiments to measure nasal resistance and allergen particle deposition. Results:①The average width and length of the NSB in healthy adults in Northwest China were （12.85±1.74） mm and （28.30±1.92） mm, respectively. ②After NSB removal, there was no significant change in total nasal resistance, and cross-sectional airflow velocity remained essentially unaltered except for a decrease in topical airflow velocity in the NSB plane. ③There was no discernible difference in the nasal heating and humidification function following the removal of the NSB; ④After NSB removal, the deposition fraction（DF） of Artemisia pollen in the nasal septum decreased, and the DFs post-and pre-NSB removal were（22.79±6.61）% vs （30.70±12.27）%, respectively; the DF in the lower airway increased, and the DFs post-and pre-NSB removal were（24.12±6.59）% vs （17.00±5.57）%, respectively. Conclusion:This study is the first to explore the effects of NSB on nasal airflow, heating and humidification, and allergen particle deposition in a healthy population. After NSB removal from the healthy nasal cavities: ①nasal airflow distribution was mildly altered while nasal resistance showed no significantly changed; ②nasal heating and humidification were not significantly changed; ③the nasal septum's ability to filter out Artemisia pollen was diminished, which could lead to increased deposition of Artemisia pollen in the lower airway.

OBJECTIVE To establish the correlation evaluation and quality evaluation method of HPLC fingerprint grade of color sorting Lonicerae Japonicae Flos, and provide technical basis for the grade standard of color sorting Lonicerae Japonicae Flos. METHODS The chromatographic column was SVEA C18(250 mm×4.6 mm, 5 μm); mobile phase was acetonitrile(A)- 0.2% formic acid aqueous solution(B); gradient elution; injection volume was 10 μL; detection wave length was 245 nm; volume flow rate was 0.5 mL·min-1; column temperature was 38 ℃. The common peak determination and similarity evaluation of HPLC chromatogram data were carried out by using the Similarity Evaluation System of Traditional Chinese Medicine Chromatographic Fingerprints(Version 2012); the color sorting grade evaluation was carried out by CA, PCA and PLS-DA. The first part of Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2020 Edition was used to measure the quality control indicators, and the data were analyzed comprehensively. RESULTS A total of 28 common peaks were identified in the fingerprints, and 7 components were identified. The similarity of 24 batches of color sorting grade samples was 0.936-0.968. CA and PCA divided 28 batches of Lonicerae Japonicae Flos samples into 4 categories, which were basically consistent with the classification of color sorting, and PLS-DA achieved a discrimination result that was very consistent with the classification of color sorting. The color sorting grade was negatively correlated with the diameter, flowering rate, damage rate, and luteolin content of Lonicerae Japonicae Flos. The color sorting grade was positively correlated with chlorogenic acid, 3,5-di-O-caffeoyl quinic acid and 4,5-di-O-caffeoyl quinic acid. There was a clear correlation between the color sorting of Lonicerae Japonicae Flos and established fingerprint overall. There were differences in the quality of Lonicerae Japonicae Flos in the color sorting grade. Based on the sensory indicators of diameter, flowering rate, and damage rate, the content, diameter, flowering rate, and damage rate of luteolin showed a trend from high to low, ranging from third grade>second grade>first grade>special grade. The content of three phenolic acids showed a trend from high to low, ranging from special grade>first grade>second grade>third grade. Among the special grade, the content of three phenolic acids was the highest. CONCLUSION Combining the content of luteolin and phenolic acids as evaluation and control indicators for color selection grade is feasible and scientific, which can achieve intelligent color sorting grade production of Lonicerae Japonicae Flos grade.

Objective    To compare the short-term and long-term effects of minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) and traditional open esophagectomy (OE) in patients with stage T1b esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Methods    We retrospectively analyzed the clinical pathology data of 162 patients undergoing thoracic surgery at Northern Jiangsu People's Hospital from 2015 to 2018 whose pathological diagnosis was stage pT1b ESCC. According to the surgical approach, they were divided into MIE group and OE group. There were 55 males and 21 females in the OE group, with an average age of 63.3±5.6 years, and 60 males and 26 females in the MIE group, with an average age of 64.7±6.1 years. The preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative data of the two groups were compared and followed up. Survival data were compared using Kaplan-Meier and log-rank tests between the two groups, and Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to analyze prognostic factors. Results    Compared with the OE group, the intraoperative bleeding volume of the MIE group was less (119.8±70.0 mL vs. 210.5±136.2 mL, P<0.001), and the lymph nodes dissected during the operation were more (19.1±7.4 vs. 13.8±5.9, P<0.001), the rate of postoperative pulmonary infections was lower (9.3% vs. 21.1%, P=0.036), but the operation time was longer (240.0±52.4 min vs. 179.5±35.7 min, P<0.001). Twenty-one patients had lymph node metastasis, and the lymph node metastasis rate was 13.0%. At the end of the follow-up, 19 patients died, and the overall survival (OS) at 1 year, 3 years, and 5 years after operation were 97.5%, 88.8% and 82.9%, respectively; 31 patients had recurrence and metastasis, and the disease-free survival (DFS) rate at 1 year, 3 years, and 5 years after operation was 95.1%, 80.9% and 75.6%. There was no significant difference in OS and DFS between the two groups. Multivariate Cox regression analysis of OS found that lymph node metastasis, anastomotic fistula and chylothorax were independent risk factors for OS. Multivariate Cox regression analysis of DFS found that lymph node metastasis, anastomotic fistula, chylothorax, and vascular cancer thrombus were independent risk factors for OS. Conclusion    MIE can achieve the same long-term effects as OE, with less intraoperative bleeding, more lymph nodes dissected, and lower incidence of postoperative pulmonary infections, but it takes longer operation time.

The concept of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) was firstly demonstrated in practice by the Danish scholar Henrik Kehlet in the early 2000s. At present, the ERAS concept has been widely used in a variety of surgical fields, but its application in esophageal cancer surgery is still limited. The new esophageal ERAS guidelines issued by ERAS Association bring new opportunities for the application and promotion of esophageal cancer surgery. Combined with the current situation of esophageal cancer surgery in China and related literature, in this paper we discuss the specific measures of ERAS concept in perioperative application of esophageal cancer in China.
