This disease is frequently complicated by cytokine release syndrome(CRS), a severe condition closely linked to its intrinsic biological characteristics, which is receiving increasing clinical attention. This article systematically elaborates on the latest advances in the molecular mechanisms, diagnostic grading, and therapeutic strategies for EBV+ DLBCL, NOS complicated by CRS, aiming to provide a more comprehensive evidence-based foundation for clinical decision-making.

Objective To investigate the prognostic differences among pure urothelial carcinoma,squamous-differentiated urothelial carcinoma,and pure squamous cell carcinoma,so as to provide reference for postoperative risk stratification.Methods The clinical data of bladder cancer patients who visited the Department of Urology,Peking University First Hospital and underwent radical cystectomy during Jan.2005 and Jun.2024 were retrospectively analyzed.Patients were categorized into the pure urothelial carcinoma group(n=725),squamous-differentiated urothelial carcinoma group(n=189),and pure squamous cell carcinoma group(n=36).General characteristics,surgical approaches,pathological staging,muscle invasion status,and lymph node positivity were compared among the three groups.Kaplan-Meier survival curves were plotted,and prognostic differences among the groups were compared after 1∶1 propensity score matching between each pair.Independent risk factors of prognosis were identified with Cox multivariable regression.Results The pure squamous cell carcinoma group had a higher proportion of female patients(50.00％vs.25.24％vs.22.75％,P=0.002 4).Compared with the pure urothelial carcinoma group,the other two groups demonstrated higher proportions of stage Ⅲ+Ⅳ,higher rates of muscle invasion,and higher lymph node positivity,with the pure squamous cell carcinoma group showing the highest overall staging(69.45％vs.58.20％vs.29.38％,P＜0.000 1).Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that squamous-differentiated urothelial carcinoma group and pure squamous cell carcinoma group had significantly worse survival than the pure urothelial carcinoma group(P＜0.05),while the former two groups exhibited similar outcomes(P=0.85).After propensity score matching,postoperative survival curves among the three groups were not significantly different(all P＞0.05).In multivariable Cox proportional hazards models adjusting for confounders,prognosis was primarily associated with age,muscle invasion,and lymph-node positivity(P＜0.05);pathological subtype was not an independent predictor of postoperative survival.Conclusion In a cohort of non-metastatic patients undergoing radical cystectomy,pure squamous cell carcinoma and squamous-differentiated urothelial carcinoma presented with higher clinical and pathological staging and poorer unadjusted prognosis compared with pure urothelial carcinoma.However,postoperative survival did not differ significantly among the three groups in the same clinicopathological conditions.

Recent studies have shown that the physiological homeostasis of oral mucosal cells is regulated by the circadian clock.Dis-ruption or dysfunction of the circadian clock is closely associated with the development of oral squamous cell carcinoma(OSCC).Research based on the circadian clock offers a novel perspective on the pathogenesis and therapeutic strategies for OSCC.However,there is current-ly limited research on this topic,and people generally have insufficient understanding and recognition of the circadian clock.Given the complexity and challenges of circadian clock which is the fourth dimension of medical research,we organize relevant experts based on summarizing the current research results of circadian clock in the pathogenesis and precision diagnosis and treatment of OSCC,combining the scientific principles of the circadian clock's role and their long-term research experience,then summarizes and recommends the con-sensus opinions for the research of circadian clock in the pathogenesis mechanism and precision diagnosis and treatment of human OSCC,with the hope of providing guidance for the basic research and clinical application of circadian clock or circadian rhythm in the pathogene-sis mechanism and precision diagnosis and treatment of oral and maxillofacial squamous cell carcinoma.

Objective To explore the mechanism of Yizhu Wendan Decoction in treating eczema through GEO database combined with network pharmacology and experimental verification.Methods TCMSP,BATMAN-TCM and ETCM databases were used to screen the active components of Yizhu Wendan Decoction.Disease target information related to eczema was collected through GEO database.The drug-component-target network and PPI network were constructed by intersections of active component targets and disease targets.GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses were performed using DAVID database.CCK-8 method was used to screen out the optimal intervention concentration of freeze-dried powder of Yizhu Wendan Decoction.HaCaT cells were divided into control group,model group,Yizhu Wendan Decoction low concentration group,Yizhu Wendan Decoction high concentration group,si-IL-17RA group,si-IL-17RA+Yizhu Wendan Decoction low concentration group,si-IL-17RA+Yizhu Wendan Decoction high concentration group,Dexamethasone group,si-IL-17RA+Dexamethasone group.Each group was given relevant intervention.The expressions of chemokines and inflammatory factors were detected by qPCR.EdU and Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining were used to detect cell proliferation and apoptosis.Western blot was performed to detect the expressions of proteins related to apoptosis,skin barrier and IL-17 signaling pathway.Results By using databases,180 active components of Yizhu Wendan Decoction were obtained.Combined with GEO database microarrays related to eczema(GSE6012 and GSE57225),8 potential targets of Yizhu Wendan Decoction in the treatment of eczema were obtained.KEGG enrichment pathway mainly involved IL-17 signaling pathway,lipid and atherosclerotic,TNF signaling pathway,fluid shear stress and atherosclerotic,etc.When Yizhu Wendan Decoction freeze-dried powder concentration was 100 μg/mL,cell viability was the strongest.Yizhu Wendan Decoction could significantly inhibit the mRNA expressions of chemokines and inflammatory factors CCL17,CCL22,IL-1β,TNF-α,IL-6,IFN-γ,and increase the mRNA expression of IL-4 in eczema.It promoted the proliferation of HaCaT cells,increased the protein expression of Bcl-2,and reduced the protein expressions of Bad and Cleaved Caspase-3,thus inhibiting HaCaT cells apoptosis;promoted the protein expressions of FLG and LOR,and reduced the expression of MMP9,MMP1,CCL2,FOSL1,IL-17RA proteins in IL-17 signaling pathway.Conclusion Yizhu Wendan Decoction can treat eczema with multiple components,multiple pathways and multiple targets,promote the proliferation of HaCaT cells,inhibit their apoptosis,and restore the skin barrier.Its mechanism may be related to inhibiting the activation of IL-17 signaling pathway.

Oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma(OPSCC)is a malignant tumor originating from the squamous epithelium of the oro-pharyngeal mucosa,accounting for more than 90％of oropharyngeal malignancies.In recent years,human papillomavirus(HPV)infec-tion has become one of the primary etiological factors of oropharyngeal squamous carcinoma.The incidence of HPV-associated oropharyn-geal squamous carcinoma has been rising annually,with a noticeable trend toward younger populations,posing a significant threat to hu-man health.Due to the distinct biological behavior and clinical characteristics of HPV-associated oropharyngeal squamous carcinoma com-pared to its non-HPV-related counterpart,the diagnostic and treatment strategies for oropharyngeal squamous carcinoma have undergone substantial changes.Prevention and screening for oropharyngeal squamous carcinoma are of critical importance.The diagnostic and treat-ment process involves multi-disciplinary collaboration,including oral and maxillofacial surgery,otolaryngology,head and neck surgery,oncology,radiology and pathology.Based on evidence from clinical practice,a comprehensive,integrated diagnostic and therapeutic ap-proach has been established,centered around the concept of"prevention,screening,diagnosis,treatment,and rehabilitation",covering the entire patient lifecycle and providing a valuable reference for clinical practice.

Background and purpose:Colorectal cancer(CRC),ranking as the third most common malignant tumor globally,continues to pose a significant public health challenge due to its high incidence and mortality rates.Chemotherapy remains a cornerstone treatment for advanced CRC.However,its efficacy is often severely limited by the emergence of multidrug resistance(MDR).The drug efflux mediated by ABCB1 is a key mechanism underlying chemotherapeutic failure.Although the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug tepoxalin exhibits potential antitumor activity,it remains unclear whether it influences CRC progression and chemoresistance by targeting ABCB1.This study aimed to elucidate the mechanism by which tepoxalin suppresses CRC cell growth and reverses chemoresistance through the regulation of ABCB1.Methods:This study employed a multifaceted research strategy:Bioinformatics analysis was conducted using the DepMap,The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA),Genotype-Tissue Expression(GTEx)and Human Protein Atlas(HPA)databases to analyze ABCB1 expression profiles and drug sensitivity.In vitro,the cell counting kit-8(CCK-8)assay was used to assess cell proliferation and chemosensitivity,and IC50 values were calculated.A subcutaneous xenograft model in nude mice was established to evaluate the antitumor efficacy in vivo.The drug affinity responsive target stability(DARTS)assay was performed to validate the direct binding between tepoxalin and ABCB1 protein.Transcriptome sequencing and gene set enrichment analysis(GSEA)were utilized to identify downstream signaling pathways.Western blot and immunohistochemistry were applied to detect the expression changes of key proteins.The PI3K-Akt pathway inhibitor copanlisib was used for reverse validation.Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 20.0 software,and graphs were generated using GraphPad Prism 8.0.1.A value of P＜0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results:ABCB1 was significantly overexpressed in CRC tissues and cell lines(P＜0.05).Cells with high ABCB1 expression exhibited increased sensitivity to tepoxalin(R=-0.323,P＜0.001).Tepoxalin directly bound to the ABCB1 protein and promoted its proteasomal degradation.In vivo,tepoxalin significantly inhibited the growth of xenograft tumors(P＜0.01)and downregulated the expression of ABCB1 and Ki-67 proliferation index in tumor tissues.Transcriptomic analysis revealed that tepoxalin suppressed the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway[GSEA,false discovery rate(FDR)＜0.05],leading to reduced transcriptional expression of ABCB1.This effect was replicated using the PI3K-Akt pathway inhibitor copanlisib.Ultimately,tepoxalin synergistically enhanced the efficacy of 5-fluorouracil(5-FU)through the aforementioned actions.Conclusion:Tepoxalin targets ABCB1 through a dual-track mechanism:it directly binds to and destabilizes the ABCB1 protein while simultaneously downregulating its transcriptional expression via inhibition of the PI3K-Akt pathway.This coordinated action can synergistically inhibit CRC cell growth and effectively reverse chemoresistance,offering a novel potential therapeutic strategy for overcoming drug resistance in CRC.

In recent decades,the incidence of human papillomavirus(HPV)-associated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma(OPSCC)has shown a marked increase.Significant changes have also occurred in the OPSCC diagnosis and treatment paradigm.Deter-mining HPV status prior to treatment is now essential,and radiotherapy/chemotherapy,immunotherapy,and minimally invasive surgical techniques have progressively emerged as key modalities for managing OPSCC.However,alongside these paradigm shifts,a comprehen-sive technical consensus guiding the entire diagnostic and therapeutic process for OPSCC patients is currently lacking.Given China's large population base and the rising incidence of OPSCC,an expert panel convened to develop a clinical technical consensus on OPSCC diagno-sis and management tailored to China's specific context.This consensus aims to further enhance and standardize understanding of OPSCC management techniques among relevant healthcare professionals.

Objective:To investigate the endoscopic and pathological characteristics of metachronous early gastric cancer (EGC) after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for EGC.Methods:Data of 451 consecutive EGC patients treated with ESD at the Department of Gastroenterology, Peking University Third Hospital between 1 January, 2005 and 31 December, 2022 were retrospectively collected, of which 252 patients who met the criteria and had endoscopic follow-up ≥ 1 year were enrolled in the retrospective dynamic cohort. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to identify independent risk factors for metachronous EGC after ESD. Pearson's contingency coefficient was applied to analyze endoscopic correlation between the index and metachronous lesions. T-test, χ2 test, and Fisher exact test were used to compare endoscopic pathological features between index and metachronous lesions, the proportion of lesions meeting absolute ESD indication and their maximum diameters between patients undergoing annual vs bi-annual follow-up. Kaplan-Meier analysis assessed the cumulative incidence of metachronous EGC. Results:During a median follow-up of 40 months, 26 patients [10.3% (26/252)] developed metachronous EGC, with a mean interval of 43.9 months. Multivariate Cox regression identified the independent risk factors of index lesions including location in the middle third of the stomach ( HR=3.783, 95% CI: 1.300-11.011, P=0.015), in the anterior wall ( HR=3.934, 95% CI: 1.113-13.904, P=0.033), and the maximum diameter <15 mm ( HR=3.034, 95% CI: 1.074-8.571, P=0.036). Pearson's contingency coefficient showed no significant concordance between index and metachronous lesions for vertical location (C=0.375, P=0.372), horizontal location (C=0.508, P=0.434), gross morphology (C=0.287, P=0.675), or ulcer presence (C=0.194, P=0.313). Compared to index lesions, metachronous lesions were more frequently located on the posterior wall (lesser curvature/greater curvature/anterior wall/posterior wall: 11/2/1/12 VS 96/49/46/61, P=0.031), more often differentiated (differentiated/undifferentiated: 26/0 VS 214/38, P=0.032), and smaller in maximum diameter (8.08±5.99 mm VS 13.95±10.26 mm, t=4.383, P<0.001). No significant differences were observed between patients undergoing annual vs bi-annual follow-up in the proportion of metachronous lesions meeting absolute ESD indication (14/16 VS 9/9, P=0.520) or in maximum diameter (8.11±6.94 mm VS 6.67±4.35 mm, t=-0.275, P=0.535). The cumulative incidence curve of metachronous EGC plateaued after 10 years. Conclusion:Patients with EGC located in the middle third of the stomach, in the anterior wall, or of smaller diameter need intensive endoscopic surveillance after ESD. Posterior wall deserves particular attention during follow-up, with annual endoscopy recommended for at least 10 years post-ESD.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma(OSCC)is a malignant lesion originating from the oral mucosal squamous epithelium,account-ing for over 80％of oral and maxillofacial malignancies.Key etiological factors include tobacco,alcohol abuse,and betel quid chewing.In China,its incidence has shown an overall upward trend,posing a significant threat to public health.OSCC exhibits high local invasive-ness,making early diagnosis critical for improving prognosis.Its clinical management requires close multidisciplinary collaboration among oral and maxillofacial surgery,head and neck surgery,radiation oncology,medical oncology,reconstructive surgery,radiology,patholo-gy,and nutritional support teams.Given the increasing disease burden of OSCC and rapid development of multidisciplinary collaborative models,an expert panel has formulated this integrated management consensus based on evidence-based medicine and extensive deliber-ation.Centered on the'Prevention-Screening-Diagnosis-Treatment-Rehabilitation'framework,the consensus provides comprehensive guidance for the entire disease course of OSCC patients,aiming to standardize clinical practice.
