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.

Objective The leptin receptor,encoded by the LEPR gene,is involved in tumorigenesis.A potential functional variant of LEPR,rs1137101(Gln223Arg),has been extensively investigated for its contribution to the risk of digestive system(DS)cancers,but results remain conflicting rather than conclusive.Here,we performed a case-control study and subsequent meta-analysis to examine the association between rs1137101 and DS cancer risk. Methods A total of 1,727 patients with cancer(gastric/liver/colorectal:460/480/787)and 800 healthy controls were recruited.Genotyping of rs1137101 was conducted using a polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism(PCR-RFLP)assay and confirmed using Sanger sequencing.Twenty-four eligible studies were included in the meta-analysis. Results After Bonferroni correction,the case-control study revealed that rs1137101 was significantly associated with the risk of liver cancer in the Hubei Chinese population.The meta-analysis suggested that rs1137101 is significantly associated with the risk of overall DS,gastric,and liver cancer in the Chinese population. Conclusion The LEPR rs1137101 variant may be a genetic biomarker for susceptibility to DS cancers(especially liver and gastric cancer)in the Chinese population.

Objective: To investigate the differences in enolase and laminin levels in vaginal epithelial tissues between mice successfully infected withGardnerellaand mice not infected with Gardnerella, providing information for further exploration of the correlation between enolase and laminin levels and the incidence of bacterial vaginosis. Methods: Gardnerella strains isolated, purified, and identified from vaginal secretions of patients with bacterial vaginosis were used to infect the vagina of mice and establish a mouse model of bacterial vaginosis. Successful and failed mice was defined as successful and failed groups, respectively. Differential expression of enolase and laminin in the vaginal epithelial tissue of two groups of mice was detected by Western blot. Modeling success rate was statistically analyzed, and the expression differences of enolase and laminin was compared between two groups. Results: One strain of Gardnerella vaginalis infected 10 SPF grade KM mice, 7 mice met the diagnostic criteria for bacterial vaginosis, and 3 mice failed to model, with a success rate of 70%. Western blot was used to detect protein expression levels, and the levels of laminin and enolase in the successfully modeled mouse vaginal epithelial tissue were significantly higher than those in the failed modeling group, with statistical differences between the two groups(P<0.05). Conclusion Enolase and laminin may be involved in the occurrence of bacterial vaginosis, however, further research is needed to determine the mechanisms through which they trigger the occurrence and development of the disease.

Objective To investigate the effects of Huoxue Yiqi Decoction(composed of Carthami Flos,Crataegi Fructus,Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma,and Astragali Radix)combined with Pinggan Qianyang Muzu Powder(composed of Uncariae Ramulus cum Uncis,Prunellae Spica,Chrysanthemi Flos,Lonicerae Japonicae Flos and Cassiae Semen)on blood lipid metabolism and cardiac function in female patients with essential hypertension.Methods A total of 220 female patients with essential hypertension of qi deficiency and blood stasis type were randomly divided into observation group and control group,with 110 cases in each group.The control group was treated with conventional western medicine,and the observation group was treated with Huoxue Yiqi Decoction orally combined with Pinggan Qianyang Muzu Powder for foot bath on the basis of treatment for the control group.The course of treatment for the two groups covered one month.Before and after treatment,the two groups were observed in the changes of blood pressure,blood lipid,traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome scores and cardiac function indicators of left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)and stroke volume(SV).After treatment,the clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated.Results(1)After one month of treatment,the total effective rate of the observation group was 95.45%(105/110),and that of the control group was 84.55%(93/110).The intergroup comparison(tested by chi-square test)showed that the efficacy of the observation group was superior to that of the control group(P＜0.01).(2)After treatment,the TCM syndrome scores of primary symptoms and secondary symptoms in the two groups were decreased when compared with those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the decrease in the observation group was superior to that in the control group(P＜0.01).(3)After treatment,the levels of systolic blood pressure(SBP)and diastolic blood pressure(DBP)in the two groups were lower than those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the decrease of SBP and DBP levels in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P＜0.01).(4)After treatment,the levels of blood lipid indicators of total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG)and low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)in the two groups were lower than those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)were higher than those before treatment(P＜0.05).The decrease of TC,TG and LDL-C levels and the increase of HDL-C level in the observation group were significantly superior to those in the control group(P＜0.01).(5)After treatment,the levels of cardiac function indicators of LVEF and SV in the two groups were higher than those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the increase of LVEF and SV levels in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P＜0.01).Conclusion The combination of Huoxue Yiqi Decoction and Pinggan Qianyang Muzu Powder exerts certain effect in the treatment of female patients with essential hypertension of qi deficiency and blood stasis type.The combined therapy is effective on controlling blood pressure,improving blood lipid metabolism and cardiac function indicators.

Aim To establish limited sampling strategy to esti-mate area under the drug concentration versus time curve(AUC0-t)of lymphoma patients treated with autologous stem cell transplantation(ASCT)who had busulfan intravenous infu-sion.Methods Twelve lymphoma patients treated with ASCT received a conditioning regimen containing busulfan 105 mg·m-2,Ⅳ infusion for 3 h.Blood samples were obtained 1 h after the start of the first dose of the busulfan infusion,at 5 min,1 h,2 h,4 h,6 h and 18 h after the end of the drug administration.LC-MS/MS was used to determine the busulfan serum concentra-tion.After obtaining the clinical pharmacokinetic parameters of busulfan by traditional pharmacokinetic method,multiple linear stepwise regression analysis was used to establish the AUC0-t es-timation model of busulfan based on limited sampling method.The model was further verified by Jackknife and Bootstrap meth-od.Bland-Altman plots were used to evaluate the consistency between the limited sampling method and the classical pharma-cokinetic method.Results The multiple linear regression equa-tion analysis of C60min,C180min and C300min was obtained by the limited sampling method.The regression equation was AUC0-t=295.003C60min+233.050C180min+273.163C300min-1202.713,r2=0.995,MPE=-0.87％,RMSE=2.40％.Conclusion The limited sampling model with three-point estimation can be used to estimate the AUC0-t of busulfan exposure in lymphoma patients with ASCT to provide reference for clinical application of busulfan.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective To monitor the antifungal resistance of clinical isolates of Candida spp.in the East China region.Methods MALDI-TOF MS or molecular methods were used to re-identify the strains collected from January 2018 to December 2022.Antifungal susceptibility testing was performed using the broth microdilution method.The susceptibility test results were interpreted according to the breakpoints of 2022 Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)documents M27 M44s-Ed3 and M57s-Ed4.Results A total of 3 026 strains of Candida were collected,65.33％of which were isolated from sterile body sites,mainly from blood(38.86％)and pleural effusion/ascites(10.21％).The predominant species of Candida were Candida albicans(44.51％),followed by Candida parapsilosis complex(19.46％),Candida tropicalis(13.98％),Candida glabrata(10.34％),and other Candida species(0.79％).Candida albicans showed overall high susceptibility rates to the 10 antifungal drugs tested(the lowest rate being 93.62％).Only 2.97％of the strains showed dose-dependent susceptibility(SDD)to fluconazole.Candida parapsilosis complex had a SDD rate of 2.61％and a resistance rate of 9.42％to fluconazole,and susceptibility rates above 90％to other drugs.Candida glabrata had a SDD rate of 92.01％and a resistance rate of 7.99％to fluconazole,resistance rates of 32.27％and 48.24％to posaconazole and voriconazole non-wild-type strains(NWT),respectively,and susceptibility rates above 90％to other drugs.Candida tropicalis had resistance rates of 29.55％and 26.24％to fluconazole and voriconazole,respectively,resistance rates of 76.60％and 21.99％to posaconazole and echinocandins non-wild-type strains(NWT),and a resistance rate of 2.36％to echinocandins.Conclusions The prevalence and species distribution of Candida spp.in the East China region are consistent with previous domestic and international reports.Candida glabrata exhibits certain degree of resistance to fluconazole,while Candida tropicalis demonstrates higher resistance to triazole drugs.Additionally,echinocandins resistance has emerged in Candida albicans,Candida glabrata,Candida tropicalis,and Candida parapsilosis.
