Surgical operation is the main treatment of oral and maxillofacial tumors.Dysphagia is a common postoperative complication.Swal-lowing disorder can not only lead to mis-aspiration,malnutrition,aspiration pneumonia and other serious consequences,but also may cause psychological problems and social communication barriers,affecting the quality of life of the patients.At present,there is no systematic evalua-tion and rehabilitation management plan for the problem of swallowing disorder after oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery in China.Combining the characteristics of postoperative swallowing disorder in patients with oral and maxillofacial tumors,summarizing the clinical experience of ex-perts in the field of tumor and rehabilitation,reviewing and summarizing relevant literature at home and abroad,and through joint discussion and modification,a group of national experts reached this consensus including the core contents of the screening of swallowing disorders,the phased assessment of prognosis and complications,and the implementation plan of comprehensive management such as nutrition management,respiratory management,swallowing function recovery,psychology and nursing during rehabilitation treatment,in order to improve the evalua-tion and rehabilitation of swallowing disorder after oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery in clinic.

Cryoablation therapy with explicit anti-tumor mechanisms and histopathological manifestations has a long history.A large number of clinical practice has shown that cryoablation therapy is safe and effective,making it an ideal tumor treatment method in theory.Previously,its efficacy and clinical application were constrained by the limitations of refrigerants and refrigeration equipment.With the development of the new generation of cryoablation equipment represented by argon helium knives,significant progress has been made in refrigeration efficien-cy,ablation range,and precise temperature measurement,greatly promoting the progression of tumor cryoablation technology.This consensus systematically summarizes the mechanism of cryoablation technology,indications for oral mucosal melanoma(OMM)cryotherapy,clinical treatment process,adverse reactions and management,cryotherapy combination therapy,etc.,aiming to provide reference for carrying out the standardized cryoablation therapy of OMM.

Objective To explore the mechanism of Baihu Decoction in the treatment of acute lung injury based on network pharmacology and molecular docking technology;To carry out experimental verification.Methods The active components and targets of Baihu Decoction were searched through TCMSP and BATMAN-TCM databases,and human gene searches were conducted in GeneCards,NCBI,and OMIM databases.PPI network construction and GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis were conducted to determine the important signaling pathways of Baihu Decoction and acute lung injury.Molecular docking of main active components and core target proteins was performed.The effects of Baihu Decoction on survival rate and inflammatory cytokine content in acute lung injury lethal model mice were observed through animal experiments.Results Totally 211 common targets for Baihu Decoction and acute lung injury were screened,and identified effective components such as quercetin,kaempferol,and stigmasterol,etc.Analysis of KEGG pathway enrichment indicated that Baihu Decoction exerted its pharmacological effects in acute lung injury through a variety of signal pathways,including Toll-like receptor signaling pathway,NOD-like receptor signaling pathway,T cell receptor signaling pathway,and MAPK signaling pathway.Molecular docking results showed that Baihu Decoction had good binding strength with MAPK14,STAT3,JUN,MAPK1,MAPK3,FOS and RELA.The results of animal experiments showed that compared with the model group,the survival rate of mice in the Baihu Decoction group was significantly increased,the degree of pathological injury in the lung tissue was reduced,and serum IL-6,TNF-α contents decreased significantly(P<0.05).Conclusion Baihu Decoction can treat acute lung injury by reducing pathological injury to lung tissue and releasing of inflammatory factors.

Neck dissection(ND)is one of the main treatment methods for oral and maxillofacial malignancies.Although ND type is in con-stant improvement,but intraoperative peal-pull-push injury of the accessory nerve,muscle,muscle membrane,fascia and ligament induced shoulder syndrome(SS)is still a common postoperative complication,combined with the influence of radiochemotherapy,not only can cause pain,stiffness,numbness,limited dysfunction of shoulder neck and arm,but also may have serious impact on patient's life quality and phys-ical and mental health.At present,there is still a lack of a systematic evaluation and rehabilitation management program for postoperative SS of oral and maxillofacial malignant tumors.Based on the previous clinical practice and the current available evidence,refer to the relevant lit-erature at home and abroad,the experts in the field of maxillofacial tumor surgery and rehabilitation were invited to discuss,modify and reach a consenusus on the etiology,assessment diagnosis,differential diagnosis,rehabilitation strategy and prevention of SS,in order to provide clinical reference.

Objective:To understand the effect of vitamin B1 on lymphocyte function in simulated microgravity.Methods:Splenocytes of mice were isolated,and the rotatary cell culture system was used to simulate microgravity.Lymphocytes were stimulated with mitotic agents Concanavalin A,and cells were treated with different concentrations of vitamin B1,proliferation indexes of lympho-cytes and levels of cytokines in supernatant were detected.Results:Simulated microgravity could inhibit proliferation of splenic lym-phocytes,and decrease levels of cytokines,while vitamin B1 could promote lymphocyte proliferation and cytokines production in cells cultured in simulated microgravity in a dose dependent manner.Conclusion:Vitamin B1 may attenuate the inhibitory effect of simulated microgravity on lymphocytes by regulating cell proliferation and secretion of cytokines.

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a complication in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The Chinese Children's Cancer Group-ALL-2015 protocol was carried out in China, and epidemiology, clinical characteristics, and risk factors associated with VTE were analyzed. We collected data on VTE in a multi-institutional clinical study of 7640 patients with ALL diagnosed in 20 hospitals from January 2015 to December 2019. First, VTE occurred in 159 (2.08%) patients, including 90 (56.6%) during induction therapy and 108 (67.92%) in the upper extremities. T-ALL had a 1.74-fold increased risk of VTE (95% CI 1.08-2.8, P = 0.022). Septicemia, as an adverse event of ALL treatment, can significantly promote the occurrence of VTE (P < 0.001). Catheter-related thrombosis (CRT) accounted for 75.47% (n = 120); and, symptomatic VTE, 58.49% (n = 93), which was more common in patients aged 12-18 years (P = 0.023), non-CRT patients (P < 0.001), or patients with cerebral thrombosis (P < 0.001). Of the patients with VTE treated with anticoagulation therapy (n = 147), 4.08% (n = 6) had bleeding. The VTE recurrence rate was 5.03% (n = 8). Patients with VTE treated by non-ultrasound-guided venous cannulation (P = 0.02), with residual thrombus (P = 0.006), or with short anticoagulation period (P = 0.026) had high recurrence rates. Thus, preventing repeated venous puncture and appropriately prolonged anticoagulation time can reduce the risk of VTE recurrence.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics and risk factors of small airway dysfunction(SAD)in patients with asthma.Methods The clinical data of 200 patients with chronic persistent asthma were included,including general data,disease-related condition,pulmonary function test result,compliance assessment and asthma control status.The clinical features of the two groups were compared.Logistic regression was used to analyze risk factors for asthma SAD,and ROC curves were plotted to assess the predictive power of the model.Results Two hundred patients were divided into the SAD group(128 cases)and the non-SAD group(72 cases).The main risk factors of SAD in patients with chronic persistent asthma included smoking history(OR=4.758,95%CI:2.043-11.081),overweight(OR=2.952,95%CI:1.428-6.105),asthma without clinical remission(OR=6.140,95%CI:2.929-12.870),acute asthma attack in recent 1 year(OR= 3.406,95%CI:1.430-8.117)and allergic rhinitis(OR=2.289,95%CI:1.121-4.673).The area under the curve(AUC)of above risk factors were 0.612,0.610,0.716,0.614 and 0.600,respectively.The AUC of the composite prediction model was 0.826(95%CI:0.769-0.883),which had good prediction value.Conclusion Smoking,overweight,acute asthma attack in recent one year,non-remission period of asthma and allergic rhinitis are independent risk factors for SAD in chronic persistent asthma.The risk factors of SAD should be identified as early as possible,and individualized monitoring and treatment should be taken.

Objective:To evaluate the incidence, clinical characteristics and prognosis of second primary malignancies (SPMs) among patients with hypopharyngeal carcinoma (HPC) in real-world analysis.Methods:A total of 594 HPC patients admitted to Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College from 2010 to 2018 were retrospectively analyzed.The incidence and clinical characteristics of HPC patients complicated with SPMs were analyzed. Clinical efficacy was compared among different groups.Results:With a median follow-up time of 66.9 months, SPMs were present in 36.4% (216/594) of HPC patients: 22.2% (132/594) were synchronous and 14.1% (84/594) were metachronous. The upper aerodigestive tract was the most common involved region. Compared with patients without SPMs, patients with synchronous and metachronous carcinoma in situ had similar 5-year overall survival (OS) of 42.2% vs. 44.5% ( P=0.958) and 62.2% vs. 44.5% ( P=0.240), respectively. Patients with synchronous invasive SPMs had a worse 5-year OS of 27.2% vs. 44.5% in their counterparts without SPMs ( P=0.001). Patients with metachronous invasive SPMs had similar 5-year OS of 50.2% vs. 44.5% in their counterparts without SPMs ( P=0.587). SPMs accounted for 42.5% of total death in metachronous invasive SPMs group. Conclusions:Patients with HPC have a high probability of developing SPMs. Moreover, the incidence of complicated with esophageal/gastric carcinoma in situ or metachronous SPMs exerts no effect on prognosis, while the occurrence of synchronous SPMs significantly affectes the prognosis of patients. However, the incidence of SPMs is still one of the main death causes in metachronous invasive SPMs group.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Blinatumomab on the treatment of refractory or relapsed precursor B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (R/R BCP-ALL) in children.Methods:Clinical data of children with R/R BCP-ALL treated with Blinatumomab in the Department of Hematology, Children′s Hospital of Soochow University, from August 2021 to June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.Children were divided into<45 kg group and ≥45 kg group according to their weight at admission.They were treated with different dosages of Blinatumomab, and bone marrow remission was assessed at about 15 days.Clinical indicators and adverse events during the treatment period were recorded.The rank sum test of two independent samples were used to compare the differences between groups.The Fisher′ s test was used for comparing categorical variables. Results:Among the 16 children with R/R BCP-ALL, 12 cases (75%) achieved complete response (CR) and minimal residual lesion (MRD) turned negative at about 14 days.Among them, 5 out of 9 children with bone marrow primitive naive cell ratio≥0.5 achieved CR, and 7/7 children with bone marrow primitive naive cell ratio<0.5 achieved CR.The peak value of interleukin-6 (IL-6) in children with CR was significantly higher than those without CR ( Z=2.50, P=0.012). Twelve cases achieved CR on bone marrow assessment around day 15, and 3 cases who did not achieve CR remained in remission on day 28, with an efficacy prediction accuracy of 93.8%(15/16). Adverse events included fever, neutropenia, hypokalemia, abnormal liver function, hypocalcemia, edema, rash, hypertension, myocardial damage, abdominal pain, hypotension, and cytokine release syndrome, which were all grade 1.Neurotoxicity and death were not reported. Conclusions:The remission rate of R/R BCP-ALL in children treated with Blinatumomab was high, especially in patients with a low tumor load.The toxicity and adverse events of Blinatumomab treatment are minor and controllable.Day 15 is the optimal time point to evaluate the efficacy of Blinatumomab on children with R/R BCP-ALL, and a higher IL-6 peak can be served as a predictor of its efficacy.

Abnormal transcription of oncogenes driven by super enhancers was found to be critical for maintaining tumor cell identity.The expression of oncogenes can be effectively suppressed by inhibiting the key regulator that super enhancers regulate oncogene transcription.Bromodomain protein 4(BRD4)is a key protein to recognize the super enhancer regulatory elements, which can bind to acetylated histones or non-histones to regulate gene transcription.The abnormal expression of BRD4 is closely related to the malignant development of a variety of hematologic oncology.Targeting BRD4 can effectively control the malignant development of hematologic tumors.In recent years, BRD4-targeted drugs in hematologic oncology have received extensive attention, and they showed good antitumor effects either as a single drug or in combination with other drugs.In this paper, in order to provide a new understanding of the occurrence of leukemia and treatment of hematologic oncology, the biological functions of BRD4 as well as the molecular drugs targeting BRD4 are reviewed.
