Objective:To discuss the distinctive sonographic feature and the biological behavior of renal angiomyolipoma(RAML),and to provide the reference for the clinicians to make the accurate diagnosis of RAML.Methods:The clinical data of one patient with invasive classical RAML combined with pseudaneurysm formation were collected.The sonographic appearances were analyzed in conjunction with the pathological characteristics to clarify the biological behavior of RAML,and the relevant literatures were reviewed.Results:The patient,a 60-year-old female,visited the local hospital due to discomfort in the lumbar area,and received CT examination,and the CT examination results revealed a left renal mass,so the patient came to our hospital.The specialist clinical examinations and laboratory investigations were unremarkable.The ultrasound results indicated an enlarged left kidney with a cystic and solid mass at the upper pole,which featured pseudaneurysm formation(originating from the interlobar arteries);the enhanced CT image results suggested a high probability of upper pole renal carcinoma combined with aneurysmal formation within the tumor,alongside invasion into the left adrenal gland.The patient underwent laparoscopic radical left nephrectomy,and the postoperative pathology confirmed the diagnosis of invasive classical RAML.Conclusion:The classical RAML can exhibit the invasive biological behavior.The pseudaneurysm formation is a special sonographic manifestation of RAML,which can be challenging to differentiate from the other renal tumors.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of Huatan Jieyu Anshen Decoction(mainly with the actions of resolving phlegm,relieving depression and calming mind)combined with abdominal vibration tuina manipulations on chronic insomnia in the elderly.Methods Ninety-four cases of elderly patients with chronic insomnia of phlegm-heat harassing the interior type were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group,with 47 cases in each group.The control group was given Huatan Jieyu Anshen Decoction orally,while the observation group was given oral use of Huatan Jieyu Anshen Decoction combined with abdominal vibration tuina manipulations.The course of treatment for the two groups lasted for 4 weeks.Before and after the treatment,the two groups were observed in the changes of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome scores,Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI)score,Athens Insomnia Scale(AIS)score,Fatigue Scale-14(FS-14)score,World Health Organization Quality-of-Life Brief Scale(WHOQOL-BREF)score,and the serum levels of melatonin(MT),dopamine(DA),and cortisol(CORT).After treatment,the clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated.Results(1)After 4 weeks of treatment,the total effective rate of the observation group was 97.88%(46/47),while that of the control group was 87.23%(41/47),and the intergroup comparison(tested by chi-square test)showed that the therapeutic efficacy of the observation group was superior to that of the control group(P＜0.01).(2)After treatment,the scores of primary and secondary TCM symptoms in the two groups were significantly decreased compared with those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the decrease of the scores of primary and secondary TCM symptoms in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P＜0.01).(3)After treatment,the PSQI scores,AIS scores,and FS-14 scores in the two groups were significantly decreased compared with those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the WHOQOL-BREF scores were significantly increased compared with those before treatment(P＜0.05).The decrease of the PSQI scores,AIS scores and FS-14 scores as well as the increase of the WHOQOL-BREF scores in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P＜0.01).(4)After treatment,the serum MT level of both groups was significantly higher than that before treatment(P＜0.05),and the serum DA and CORT levels were significantly lower than those before treatment(P＜0.05).The increase in serum MT level and the decrease in serum DA and CORT levels of the observation group were significantly superior to those of the control group(P＜0.01).Conclusion The combined therapy of Huatan Jieyu Anshen Decoction combined with vibration tuina manipulations can achieve satisfactory efficacy in the elderly patients with chronic insomnia of phlegm-heat harassing the interior syndrome.The therapy is effective on regulating the central nervous system of the patients,improving the quality of the sleep,and promoting the relief of fatigue and the enhancement of the quality of life,which has great significance to the enhancement of the overall therapeutic efficacy of insomnia.

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 investigate the application value of tear inflammatory factors in early evaluation of the occurrence of complications after trabeculectomy in glaucoma patients.Methods A total of 150 eyes of 150 patients with angle-closure glaucoma who underwent trabeculectomy in Department of Ophthalmology of Zhangjiagang Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine were included.The clinical data of all patients were collected,and the levels of inflammatory factors(including G-CSF,GM-CSF,IFN-γ,MCP-1,TNF-α,IL-12,IL-13,IL-15,IL-1β,IL-4,IL-7,IL-10,IL-17,IL-5)in tears were detected before surgery.According to the occurrence of postoperative complications,the patients were divided into the complication group and the control group,and the clinical data of the two groups were compared.Logistic regression was used to analyze the related factors of the occurrence of complications after trabeculectomy in glaucoma patients.The predictive model of tear inflammatory factors was established by Logistic regression,and the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn to analyze the value of this model in early evaluation of the occurrence of complications after trabeculectomy in glaucoma patients.Results Complications occurred in 35(23.33%)of 150 glaucoma patients after trabeculectomy,including 24 cases of shallow anterior chamber,5 cases of ciliary body or choroid detachment,3 cases of iridocyclitis,2 cases of hyphema,and 1 case of retinal detachment.IFN-γ,GM-CSF and IL-5 levels of the patients in the complication group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the levels of other inflammatory factors of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that increased levels of IFN-γ(OR=0.999),GM-CSF(OR=0.988)and IL-5(OR=0.996)were independent protective factors for complications after trabeculectomy in glaucoma patients(P<0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that the sensitivity and specificity of the model were 94.29%and 83.84%in early evaluation of the occurrence of complications after trabeculectomy in glaucoma patients,and the AUC was 0.906,which was higher than that predicted by IFN-γ(AUC=0.642),GM-CSF(AUC=0.721)and IL-5(AUC=0.666)alone.Conclusion Preoperative analysis of tear inflammatory factors in glaucoma patients can early evaluate the occurrence of postoperative complications,especially the combined detection of IFN-γ,GM-CSF and IL-5 levels is of great significance for predicting the occurrence of complications.

Objective To construct a mouse model of psoriasis with spleen deficiency and dampness obstruction pattern and evaluate the model from multiple dimensions and directions,expects to provide research support for the study of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatment of psoriasis with spleen deficiency and dampness obstruction pattern. Methods A mouse model of spleen deficiency and dampness obstruction pattern was established by feeding a high-fat diet,a mouse model of psoriasis vulgaris was established by externally applying imiquimod ointment,and a mouse model of psoriasis with spleen deficiency and dampness obstruction pattern was constructed by combining the above two models. Indications of spleen deficiency and dampness obstruction pattern were evaluated by comparing the body mass,food intake and water intake of mice in each group. The severity of psoriasis in mice was evaluated by comparing the area of skin lesions,PASI score,the value of transdermal water loss (TEWL),and histopathological morphological changes of skin under HE staining in each group. Flow cytometry was used to detect the expression in various cell types to evaluate the degree of inflammatory response of psoriasis in mice. Observation of adiposity index,changes in the histopathological morphology of liver tissue under HE staining,changes in the mRNA expression levels of related factors in liver tissue and adipose tissue of epididymis of mice detected by RT-qPCR,and changes of ABCA1 protein expression level of skin detected by Western Blot were used to evaluate the lipid metabolism disorders in mice. Results Compared with the mice in the psoriasis vulgaris model group,the mice in the model of psoriasis with pattern of spleen deficiency and dampness obstruction had significantly higher body mass (P<0.001),significantly lower food intake (P<0.005),and the symptoms of pattern of spleen deficiency and dampness obstruction such as greasy fur,mental fatigue,etc. appeared. The TWEL were significantly increased(P<0.001),and the PASI scores also significantly increased(P<0.001). HE results were found psoriasis-like manifestations including hypertrophy of the spinous layer and clubbed hyperplasia. The expression of CD11bhighLy6G+neutrophil subpopulation,CD11binLy6Chigh monocyte subpopulation,CD11binCD11chigh classical dendritic cell subpopulation,F4/80-CD11c+dendritic cell subpopulation was significantly increased (P<0.001). HE staining suggested that the cellular morphology of liver showed obvious vacuolated degeneration,and the index of subcutaneous white adiposity and epididymal adiposity index were both significantly increased (P<0.005). The mRNA levels of FABP4 and CD36 in liver tissue were significantly elevated(P<0.005,P<0.001),while the mRNA expression levels of ABCA1 and PPARγ in epididymal fat tissue were decreased (P<0.05,P<0.01). ABCA1 protein level in skin increased(P>0.05). Conclusion The mouse model of psoriasis with spleen deficiency and dampness obstruction pattern can be used as a reliable animal model for combining disease and pattern,which can provide a reference for further exploration of TCM in the treatment of psoriasis with spleen deficiency and dampness obstruction pattern.

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.

The concept of'harmony'is the soul of traditional Chinese culture,which has a profound impact on the formation and development of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM).TCM is rooted in traditional Chinese culture,and the mode of thinking in TCM is in line with traditional Chinese culture.Based on the harmony culture,TCM has developed a unique view of health,disease and therapeutics.From the view of the harmony culture and by combining with years of clinical experience in treating dermatosis,Chinese medical master XUAN Guo-Wei has applied the concept of'harmony'in the TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment system in clinic,and has developed the academic thoughts of harmonizing therapy for removing toxins for the diagnosis and treatment of dermatosis.The thoughts of harmonizing therapy for removing toxins includes four aspects,namely harmonizing yin and yang,harmonizing healthy qi and pathogenic qi,harmonizing water and fire(i.e.,clod and hot),and harmonizing the administration of formula and drugs,aiming to remove toxins and expel pathogens and value the harmony.The thoughts of harmonizing therapy for removing toxins will beneficial to the comprehensive understanding of the unique health-disease-therapeutics concept in TCM,and will be helpful for managing the doctor-patient relationship,which is of enlightening significance to the modern clinical practice with TCM.

Human brain banks use a standardized protocol to collect,process and store post-mortem human brains and related tissues,along with relevant clinical information,and to provide the tissue samples and data as a resource to foster neuroscience research according to a standardized operating protocols(SOP).Human brain bank serves as the foundation for neuroscience research and the diagnosis of neurological disorders,highlighting the crucial rule of ensuring the consistency of standardized quality for brain tissue samples.The first version of SOP in 2017 was published by the China Human Brain Bank Consortium.As members increases from different regions in China,a revised SOP was drafted by experts from the China Human Brain Bank Consortium to meet the growing demands for neuroscience research.The revised SOP places a strong emphasis on ethical standards,incorporates neuropathological evaluation of brain regions,and provides clarity on spinal cord sampling and pathological assessment.Notable enhancements in this updated version of the SOP include reinforced ethical guidelines,inclusion of matching controls in recruitment,and expansion of brain regions to be sampled for neuropathological evaluation.

Traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome (TSOFS) is a symptom complex caused by nerve entrapment in the supraorbital fissure after skull base trauma. If the compressed cranial nerve in the supraorbital fissure is not decompressed surgically, ptosis, diplopia and eye movement disorder may exist for a long time and seriously affect the patients′ quality of life. Since its overall incidence is not high, it is not familiarized with the majority of neurosurgeons and some TSOFS may be complicated with skull base vascular injury. If the supraorbital fissure surgery is performed without treatment of vascular injury, it may cause massive hemorrhage, and disability and even life-threatening in severe cases. At present, there is no consensus or guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS that can be referred to both domestically and internationally. To improve the understanding of TSOFS among clinical physicians and establish standardized diagnosis and treatment plans, the Skull Base Trauma Group of the Neurorepair Professional Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Neurosurgery Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Traumatology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome ( version 2024) based on evidence of evidence-based medicine and clinical experience of diagnosis and treatment. This consensus puts forward 12 recommendations on the diagnosis, classification, treatment, efficacy evaluation and follow-up of TSOFS, aiming to provide references for neurosurgeons from hospitals of all levels to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS.
