Surgical treatment outcomes of naso-orbito-ethmoid fractures using 3D printing-assisted patient specific mesh: a prospective study.

Background: This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of three-dimensional (3D) printing-assisted treatment for naso-orbito-ethmoid (NOE) fractures and to compare it with conventional surgical methods.

Methods: This research conducted a retrospective analysis of 84 patients with NOE fractures who received surgical treatment at the 900th Hospital of Joint Logistics Support Force of the Chinese People's Liberation Army from January 2018 to July 2023. The patients were divided into two groups based on whether 3D printing was applied as the experimental group ( = 44) and the traditional group ( = 40).

Global, regional, and national burden of laryngeal cancer attributable to smoking, 1990-2021, and projections to 2036: a systematic analysis of the Global Burden of Disease study 2021.

Background: Laryngeal cancer, predominantly linked to smoking, persists as a formidable global health challenge. Acquiring a deeper understanding of laryngeal cancer attributable to smoking (LCAS) burden and trends is essential for crafting nuanced and impactful prevention and intervention strategies.

Methods: The Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs), mortality, and corresponding Age-Standardized DALY rate (ASDR) and Age-Standardized Mortality Rate (ASMR) were systematically evaluated using the GBD 2021 data.

Next-generation sequencing of circulating tumor DNA in cerebrospinal fluid for detecting gene mutations in central nervous system lymphoma patients.

Background: To evaluate the potential clinical value of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in the diagnosis and monitors the central nervous system (CNS) lymphomas.

Methods: This was a prospective study of 17 consecutive patients with B-cell lymphoma: 10 patients with CNS lymphomas and 7 patients with B-cell lymphomas at high clinical risk of CNS relapse. Genomic profiles were performed on the CSF and plasma samples of patients by next-generation sequencing.

Frequency-specific analysis of hearing outcomes after surgery for chronic ear diseases.

Objective: To examine the relationship between different surgical factors and frequency-specific hearing results following surgery for chronic ear disorders.

Methods: We reviewed retrospectively data of 246 patients with chronic ear diseases who had surgery between January 2019 and December 2020. Seventy-three patients did not fulfil the criteria and were excluded.

A retrospective study of 134 patients with cervical region Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease.

Background: To explore the clinical and laboratory features, therapy and prognosis of Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease (KFD) in the cervical region.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 134 patients who were diagnosed and treated with KFD from January 2000 to May 2022 in Fujian Medical University Union Hospital (Fujian, China). Their clinical characteristics, affected lymph node size, imaging examinations, and laboratory study results were analyzed.

Dynamic Prediction of Survival for Sinonasal Extranodal Natural Killer/T-cell Lymphoma.

Background: Extranodal natural killer/ T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL) is a rare malignant tumor. This study aimed to develop a predictive nomogram and a web-based survival rate calculator for dynamically predicting the survival of patients with sinonasal ENKTL (SN-ENKTL).

Methods: This study investigated patients (n = 134) with SN-ENKTL who had been initially treated in our hospital between Jan 2008 and Dec 2016.

Synthetic Antibacterial Quaternary Phosphorus Salts Promote Methicillin-Resistant -Infected Wound Healing.

Background: Drug-resistant microbes pose a global health concern, requiring the urgent development of effective antibacterial agents and strategies in clinical practice. Therefore, there is an urgent need to explore novel antibacterial materials to effectively eliminate bacteria. The synthesis of quaternary phosphonium salt in haloargentate systems, wherein the phosphorus atom is represented in a cationic form, is a possible strategy for the development of antibacterial materials.

Evaluation of the clinical characteristics and prognostic factors of gastrointestinal non-Hodgkin lymphoma based on anatomical sites and histological subtype.

Background: This study aimed to analyze the clinical characteristics and prognostic factors of patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in the gastrointestinal tract.

Methods: This study investigated patients ( = 456) with gastrointestinal tract NHL who had been initially treated in our hospital between January 2018 and December 2021. We compared clinical characteristics and prognostic factors according to the anatomic site of involvement and histologic subtypes.

A retrospective study of 20 patients with Kimura's disease from China.

Background: Kimura's disease (KD) is an eosinophilic proliferative lymphoid disease with rare incidence rate and nonspecific clinical symptoms.

Objectives: To investigate the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of KD.

Materials And Methods: The clinical manifestations, laboratory examination, imaging examination, proposed treatment, and prognosis of 20 patients with KD treated in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed.

Clinical efficacy of the 'sandwich technique' in repairing cholesteatoma with labyrinthine fistula.

Background: Labyrinthine fistula is the most common complication of middle ear cholesteatoma.

Aims/objectives: To explore the postoperative hearing changes and surgical results of repairing middle ear cholesteatoma with labyrinthine fistula using the 'sandwich technique'.

Materials And Methods: We retrospectively studied the clinical data of 36 patients (36 ears) who underwent surgical treatment for cholesteatoma with labyrinthine fistula.

A retrospective study of 44 patients with head and neck Castleman's disease.

Purpose: To explore the clinical and pathological features, therapy and prognosis of Castleman's disease (CD) in the head and neck.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical and pathological data of 44 patients with head and neck CD who were diagnosed in the Fujian Medical University Union hospital (Fujian, China) between May 2008 and June 2021. According to the clinical classification, they were divided into two groups, the unicentric CD (UCD, n = 20) and the multicentric CD (MCD, n = 24).
