With the increasing proportion of human papilloma virus(HPV)infection in the pathogenic factors of oro-pharyngeal cancer,a series of changes have occurred in the surgical treatment.While the treatment mode has been im-proved,there are still many problems,including the inconsistency between diagnosis and treatment modes,the lack of popularization of reconstruction technology,the imperfect post-treatment rehabilitation system,and the lack of effective preventive measures.Especially in terms of treatment mode for early oropharyngeal cancer,there is no unified conclu-sion whether it is surgery alone or radiotherapy alone,and whether robotic minimally invasive surgery has better func-tional protection than radiotherapy.For advanced oropharyngeal cancer,there is greater controversy over the treatment mode.It is still unclear whether to adopt a non-surgical treatment mode of synchronous chemoradiotherapy or induction chemotherapy combined with synchronous chemoradiotherapy,or a treatment mode of surgery combined with postopera-tive chemoradiotherapy.In order to standardize the surgical treatment of oropharyngeal cancer in China and clarify the indications for surgical treatment of oropharyngeal cancer,this expert consensus,based on the characteristics and treat-ment status of oropharyngeal cancer in China and combined with the international latest theories and practices,forms consensus opinions in multiple aspects of preoperative evaluation,surgical indication determination,primary tumor re-section,neck lymph node dissection,postoperative defect repair,postoperative complication management prognosis and follow-up of oropharyngeal cancer patients.The key points include:① Before the treatment of oropharyngeal cancer,the expression of P16 protein should be detected to clarify HPV status;② Perform enhanced magnetic resonance imaging of the maxillofacial region before surgery to evaluate the invasion of oropharyngeal cancer and guide precise surgical resec-tion of oropharyngeal cancer.Evaluating mouth opening and airway status is crucial for surgical approach decisions and postoperative risk prediction;③ For oropharyngeal cancer patients who have to undergo major surgery and cannot eat for one to two months,it is recommended to undergo percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy before surgery to effectively improve their nutritional intake during treatment;④ Early-stage oropharyngeal cancer patients may opt for either sur-gery alone or radiation therapy alone.For intermediate and advanced stages,HPV-related oropharyngeal cancer general-ly prioritizes radiation therapy,with concurrent chemotherapy considered based on tumor staging.Surgical treatment is recommended as the first choice for HPV unrelated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma(including primary and re-current)and recurrent HPV related oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma after radiotherapy and chemotherapy;⑤ For primary exogenous T1-2 oropharyngeal cancer,direct surgery through the oral approach or da Vinci robotic sur-gery is preferred.For T3-4 patients with advanced oropharyngeal cancer,it is recommended to use temporary mandibu-lectomy approach and lateral pharyngotomy approach for surgery as appropriate;⑥ For cT1-2N0 oropharyngeal cancer patients with tumor invasion depth＞3 mm and cT3-4N0 HPV unrelated oropharyngeal cancer patients,selective neck dissection of levels ⅠB to Ⅳ is recommended.For cN+HPV unrelated oropharyngeal cancer patients,therapeutic neck dissection in regions Ⅰ-Ⅴ is advised;⑦ If PET-CT scan at 12 or more weeks after completion of radiation shows intense FDG uptake in any node,or imaging suggests continuous enlargement of lymph nodes,the patient should undergo neck dissection;⑧ For patients with suspected extracapsular invasion preoperatively,lymph node dissection should include removal of surrounding muscle and adipose connective tissue;⑨ The reconstruction of oropharyngeal cancer defects should follow the principle of reconstruction steps,with priority given to adjacent flaps,followed by distal pedicled flaps,and finally free flaps.The anterolateral thigh flap with abundant tissue can be used as the preferred flap for large-scale postoperative defects.

OBJECTIVE To explore the effect of silencing RNA-373(mir-373)on the proliferation and apoptosis of laryngeal cancer cells and its mechanism.METHODS Laryngeal cancer cells were divided into control group,overexpression group and silence group.Stable overexpression group and silence group were established by cell transfection.MTT assay was used to detect cell proliferation,TUNEL method was used to detect the apoptotic ability,cell invasion was detected by Transwell chamber,cell migration was detected by cell scratch test,Western blot was used to detect the expression of β-Catenin,c-myc,CyclinD1,MMP-9,bc1-2 and Bax in Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.RESULTS Compared with over expression group,the expression of mir-373 in silence group was significantly decreased(t=15.062,P<0.05).Compared with the overexpression group,the apoptosis rate was higher and the proliferation rate was lower in the silencing group at different time points(t=31.025,16.453,22.475,29.672,P<0.05).Compared with overexpression group,the invasion ability and migration number of cells in silencing group were lower(t=35.254,37.205,P<0.05).Compared with overexpression group,the expression levels of β-Catenin,c-myc,CyclinD1,MMP-9,bc1-2 protein in silencing group were lower,and Bax protein was higher(t=4.218,5.307,4.609,5.005,4.328,3.984,P<0.05).CONCLUSION Silencing mir-373 may promote apoptosis and inhibit invasion,proliferation and migration of laryngeal cancer cells by promoting Bax expression,inhibiting the expression of β-Catenin,c-myc,CyclinD1,MMP-9 and bc1-2,and blocking Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of salidroside (Sal) on bone loss in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome(OSAS) rats by regulating the osteoprotegerin(OPG)/receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand(RANKL) pathway. METHODS Rats were randomly divided into(12 rats/group) control group,OSAS group,Sal-L,Sal-M,and Sal-H groups(17.5,35,70 mg/kg). Except for the control group,all other groups were used to replicate the OSAS rat model through hypoxia and reoxygenation cycles. Bone density meters,three-point bending experiments,and Micro CT were applied to measure the bone density,biomechanics,and microstructural changes of the femur in rats. ELISA method was applied to detect serum levels of osteocalcin(BGP),alkaline phosphatase(ALP),and cross-linked carboxy-terminal telopeptide of type Ⅰ collagen(CTX-I). RT-PCR was applied to detect OPG and RANKL mRNA levels in the femur. Western blotting was applied to detect the expression of OPG/RANKL pathway proteins in the femur. RESULTS Compared with the control group,the bone density,maximum intensity,maximum load,trabecular bone volume fraction(Tb.BV/TV),trabecular number(Tb.N),trabecular thickness(Tb.Th),BGP,ALP,OPG mRNA and protein expression,OPG/RANKL ratio of rats in the OSAS group were decreased,the mRNA and protein expression of CTX-I and RANKL were increased(P<0.05). Compared with the OSAS group,the bone density,maximum intensity,maximum load,Tb.BV/TV,Tb.N,Tb.Th,BGP,ALP,OPG mRNA and protein expression,OPG/RANKL ratio of rats in the Sal-L,Sal-M,and Sal-H groups were increased sequentially,the mRNA and protein expression of CTX-I and RANKL were decreased sequentially,the above changes were most great in the Sal-H group(P<0.05). CONCLUSION Salidroside promotes bone formation and inhibits bone resorption by increasing OPG expression and decreasing RANKL expression,thereby reducing bone loss in OSAS rats.

OBJECTIVE To study the relationship between serum CC type chemotactic factor 2(CCL2),CC type chemotactic factor 18(CCL18) and clinicopathological parameters and prognosis of patients with glottic carcinoma. METHODS A total of 168 glottic carcinoma patients admitted to Handan Central Hospital and Hebei Engineering University Affiliated Hospital from August 2015 to December 2018 were selected as the research subjects. The receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve was used to determine the optimal cut-off points for serum CCL2 and CCL18. Based on this,patients were divided into CCL2 high expression group and low expression group,CCL18 high expression group and low expression group. The relationship between levels of serum CCL2 and CCL18 and clinical pathological parameters of glottic carcinoma patients was analyzed. Kaplan-Meier curve and Log Rank x2 test were used to analyze the 5-year disease-free survival rate of serum CCL2 high/low expression group and CCL18 high/low expression group. Cox regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of glottic carcinoma prognosis,and the relationship between serum CCL2,CCL18 expression and tumor recurrence/metastasis was analyzed. RESULTS The optimal cut-off points for CCL2 and CCL18 calculated based on the ROC curve were 100.81 and 218.99 pg/ml,respectively. Compared with the low expression groups of CCL2 and CCL18,the high expression groups of CCL2 and CCL18 showed a significant increase in the proportion of T3-T4a,N1-N3 stages,and tumor low differentiation(P<0.05). Of the 168 glottic carcinoma patients,there were 160 patients followed up for 5 years and 8 patients lost for follow-up. There were 67 patients experienced recurrence or metastasis,and 39 patients died due to recurrence or metastasis. The tumor recurrence or metastasis rate was 41.88％(67/160),and the disease-free survival rate was 58.13％(93/160). Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis showed that the 5-year disease-free survival rate of the high expression group of serum CCL2 and CCL18 was significantly lower than that of the low expression group of serum CCL2 and CCL18(P<0.05). Cox regression analysis showed that elevated T staging,cervical lymph node recurrence,elevated N staging,local recurrence,high expression of CCL2 and CCL18 were risk factors for poor prognosis in glottic carcinoma(P<0.05). For analysis the relationship between serum CCL2 and CCL18 expression and tumor recurrence or metastasis,it was found that when both CCL2 and CCL18 were highly expressed,the recurrence or metastasis rate was significantly higher than when both CCL2 and CCL18 were lowly expressed,CCL2 was lowly expressed and CCL18 was highly expressed,and CCL2 was highly expressed and CCL18 was lowly expressed,and the differences were statistically significant(x2=10.450,P=0.015). CONCLUSION The high expression of serum CCL2 and CCL18 in patients with glottic carcinoma is significantly correlated with T stage,N stage,tumor low differentiation,and poor prognosis.

Aim To study the effects of extracellular acidosis on articular chondrocytes pyroptosis and its possible mechanisms. Methods Primary articular chondrocytes were incubated in different pH and NAC. The expression of proinflammatory cytokines IL-1β, IL-18, ASC, NLRP3, caspase-1 were detected by Western blot and real-time PCR. The state of pyropto-sis was identified by AO/EB staining and LDH con-tents. The expression of ROS was observed by DCFH-DA, and ELISA was used to detect the IL-1β,IL-18 in cultured supernatants. Results Compared with the normal cell, extracellular acidosis could increase the expression of IL-1β, IL-18, ASC, NLRP3 and caspase-1 , upregulate the fluorescence intensity of in-tercellular ROS, accompanied with the promoted release of LDH. Moreover, it is observed that extra-cellular acidosis could also induce chondrocytes death by AO/EB staining. NAC,the scavenger of ROS could inhibit these effects of extracellular acidosis on chon-drocytes. Conclusion Extracellular acidosis may in-duce chondrocyte pyroptosis via upregulating the intra-cellular ROS content.
