Objective To explore the predictive value of cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) combined with clinical indexes in the postoperative complications. Methods The clinical data and CPET data (including lung function) of patients undergoing radical esophagectomy in Xuzhou Central Hospital from January 2018 to March 2022 were collected. Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the meaningful evaluation index for the occurrence of postoperative complications. Results A total of 77 patients with esophageal cancer were included, including 59 (76.6%) males and 18 (23.4%) females aged 47-80 years. There were 42 (54.5%) patients in the non-complication group and 35 (45.5%) patients in the complication group. Univariate analysis results showed that the occurrence of postoperative complications was significantly correlated with age, body mass index (BMI), smoking index, tumor stage, the length of postoperative hospital stay, peak work rate (WRpeak), peak kilogram oxygen uptake (VO2peak/kg), the ventilatory equivalent for carbon dioxide slope (VE/VCO2 slope), forced expiratory volume in the first second/forced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC) and maximum expiratory flow rate (MMEF) (P<0.05). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that BMI [OR=1.35, 95%CI (1.03, 1.77), P=0.031], peakVO2/kg [OR=0.64, 95%CI (0.45, 0.93), P=0.018], oxygen uptake-anaerobic threshold (ATVO2) [OR=0.66, 95%CI (0.44, 0.98), P=0.044] and VE/VCO2 slope [OR=1.49, 95%CI (1.10, 2.02), P=0.011] were the related indexes of complications after radical resection of esophageal cancer. The sensitivity of BMI, VO2peak/kg, ATVO2/kg and VE/VCO2 slope in predicting postoperative complications was 82.10%, and the specificity was 87.44%, 95%CI (0.744, 0.955). Conclusion BMI, VO2peak/kg, ATVO2/kg and VE/VCO2 slope can be used as predictors for postoperative complications of esophageal cancer.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of manual acupuncture on endometrial blood flow parameters by three-dimensional (3D) power Doppler ultrasound in women undergoing in vitro fertilization embryo transfer (IVF-ET). METHODS: Seventy patients undergoing IVF-ET were equally randomized into traditional or sham acupuncture treatment group for totally 4 days (from the day of oocyte aspiration to the day of embryo transfer) of treatment by random envelope method at the Reproductive Medicine Center and Outpatient Department of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine, Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medicine College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology from January 2013 to December 2015. Patients in the traditional acupuncture group accepted traditional acupuncture methods with manual acupuncture, and Zhongji (CV3), Qihai (CV 6), Sanyinjiao (SP6), Taichong (LR 3), Tianshu (ST 25), Guilai (ST 29) and Zusanli (ST 36) were chosen. Patients at the sham acupuncture group accepted shallow acupuncture methods at 4 non-meridian points at each shoulder and upper arm. Outcome measures included endometrial ultrasonic indices such as vascularization index (VI), flow index (FI) and vascularization flow index (VFI), endometrial thickness and volume, subendometrial VI (sVI), subendometrial FI (sFI), subendometrial VFI (sVFI), implantation rate, clinical pregnancy rate, abortion rate, live birth rate and number of live births. RESULTS: Finally, 34 patients in the traditional acupuncture group and 35 in the sham acupuncture group completed this trial. VI, FI and VFI of the traditional acupuncture group were significantly higher than those in the sham acupuncture group (P<0.05). No significant differences were found in endometrial thickness, endometrial volume, sVI, sFI, sVFI, implantation rate, clinical pregnancy rate, abortion rate, live birth rate and number of live births (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS Manual acupuncture performed after oocyte aspiration and before transplantation improved the endometrial blood flow parameters VI, RI and VFI in women who underwent IVF-ET, instead of sVI, sFI and sVFI. Therefore, acupuncture might be beneficial in women undergoing IVF-ET by increasing endometrial blood flow and endometrial receptivity. (Registration No. ChiCTR2100053354).

Amorphous solid dispersion (ASD) is one of the most effective formulation approaches to enhance the water solubility and oral bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drugs. However, maintenance of physical stability of amorphous drug is one of the main challenges in the development of ASD. Crystallization is a process of nucleation and crystal growth. The nucleation is the key factor that influences the physical stability of the ASD. However, a theoretical framework to describe the way to inhibit the nucleation of amorphous drug is not yet available. We reviewed the methods and theories of nucleation for amorphous drug. Meanwhile, we also summarized the research progress on the mechanism of additives influence on nucleation and environmental factors on nucleation. This review aims to enhance the better understanding mechanism of nucleation of amorphous drug and controlling over the crystal nucleation during the ASD formulation development.

Objective To explore the changes in early serum calcium,serum phosphorus,and calcium-phosphorus product levels in patients with fractures and analyze their correlation with the fracture site.Methods 1 049 patients with fractures admitted to Sichuan Province Orthopedic Hospital from January 2021 to November 2023 were selected as the research subjects.According to the fracture location,they were roughly divided into two groups:upper body fracture(n=478)and lower body fracture(n=571).Carefully divided into ten groups:vertebral fracture(n=108),clavicle fracture(n=109),upper limb fracture(n=106),hand fracture(n=104),femoral neck fracture(n=103),femoral intertrochanteric fracture(n=106),patella fracture(n=101),lower limb fracture(n=103),foot fracture(n=105)and other fractures(n=104).Another 110 cases of healthy physical examination people during the same period were selected as the control group.Venous blood was drawn from all patients twice on the day of emergency within 24 to 48 hours after admission,serum calcium and serum phosphorus were measured,and the calcium-phosphorus product was calculated.Compare the changes in the levels of the three and analyzed their correlation with the fracture site.Results Compared with the control group,the serum calcium(2.27±0.12 mmol/L,2.19±0.12 mmol/L vs 2.35±0.10mmol/L),serum phosphorus(1.00±0.20mmol/L,1.08±0.19mmol/L vs 1.15±0.15mmol/L),and calcium-phosphorus product(28.10±6.00mg/dl,29.30±5.85mg/dl vs 33.41±4.87mg/dl)of fracture patients were all reduced on the day of emergency and 24 to 48 hours after admission,and the differences were statistically significant(t=6.804,12.501;7.475,3.722;8.964,7.115,all P＜0.01).Comparing upper and lower body fractures,serum calcium,serum phosphorus,and calcium-phosphorus product on the emergency day was lower in lower body fracture than in upper body fracture(t=4.129,5.931,6.660,all P＜0.01),24 to 48 hours after admission,only the serum calcium and calcium-phosphorus product were lower in lower body fracture than in upper body fracture(t=6.432,1.990,all P＜0.05),and the differences were statistically significant,respectively.Comparing along the time axis,24 to 48 hours after admission compared with the emergency day,both upper and lower body fractures showed a decrease in serum calcium and an increase in serum phosphorus(t=12.779,-5.730;16.919,-14.358),calcium-phosphorus product only increased in lower body fracture(t=-8.860),and the differences were statistically significant(all P＜0.01),respectively.Compared with the day of emergency,24 to 48 hours after admission for patients with fractures in different parts,except for vertebral fracture,serum calcium in the other nine groups decreased(t=6.233～11.349,all P＜0.01),except for upper limb fracture and hand fracture,the serum phosphorus in the other eight groups increased(t=-7.770～-3.327,all P＜0.01),the calcium-phosphorus product of vertebral fracture,femoral neck fracture,femoral intertrochanteric fracture,lower limb fracture,foot fracture,and other fractures increased(t=-5.819～-2.927,all P＜0.01),and the differences were statistically significant,respectively.Conclusion The serum calcium,serum phosphorus,and calcium-phosphorus product of patients with fractures all decreased on the day of emergency.24 to 48 hours later,the serum calcium of most patients continued to decrease while the serum phosphorus and calcium-phosphorus product gradually increased.The degree of change in their levels was related to the fracture site.

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.

Neonatal lupus erythematosus(NLE)is caused by the transmission of maternal anti-Ro/SSA antibodies,anti-La/SSB antibodies,and other autoantibodies to the fetus through the placenta.Usually,with the disappearance of autoantibodies in the children's body,abnormal changes in the mucocutaneous,blood system,and digestive system can spontaneously subside,but the damage to various systems caused by autoantibodies may persist for a long time.This article provides a comprehensive review of the manifestations and prognosis of NLE in various systems,including mucocutaneous,blood system,circulatory system,nervous system,digestive system,respiratory system,aiming to provide reference for clinical work.
