RESUMO
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: To investigate the prognostic impact of different tumor invasion patterns in the surgical treatment of T3 glottic laryngeal cancer. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective analysis of clinical data of 91 patients with T3 glottic laryngeal cancer. RESULTS: We found that the posterior invasion being significantly associated with involvement of the lamina of cricoid cartilage (P < 0.001), arytenoid cartilage (P = 0.001), and subglottic (P = 0.001). There was no statistical difference in survival outcomes between the total laryngectomy (TL) group and the partial laryngectomy (PL) group, but in the PL group, tumors with anterior invasion were associated with a better 5-year DFS than tumors with posterior invasion (HR: 4.681, 95% CI: 1.337-16.393, P = 0.016), and subglottic involvement was associated with worse LRRFS (HR: 3.931, 95% CI: 1.054-14.658, P = 0.041). At the same time, we found that involvement of the lamina of cricoid cartilage was an independent risk factor for postoperative laryngeal stenosis in PL patients (HR: 11.67, 95% CI: 1.89-71.98, P = 0.008). CONCLUSION: Selectively performed PL can also achieve favorable oncological outcomes comparable to those of TL. Posterior invasion and subglottic involvement are independent prognostic factors for recurrence after PL in T3 glottic laryngeal cancer, and involvement of the lamina of cricoid cartilage is associated with postoperative laryngeal stenosis. The tumor invasion pattern of patients with laryngeal cancer should be further subdivided to allow for selection of a more individualized treatment plan.

Ultrasensitive and rapid detection of low concentration of Escherichia coli O157: H7 (E. coli O157:H7) in food is essential for food safety and public health. In this study, A novel fluorescence signal amplification biosensor based on magnetic separation platform and red fluorescent carbon dots (R-CDs)-encapsulated breakable organosilica nanocapsules (BONs) for ultrasensitive detection of E. coli O157:H7 was established. Wulff-type boronic acid functionalized magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs@B-N/APBA) with broad-spectrum bacterial recognition ability were synthesized for the first time to recognize and capture E. coli O157: H7 in food samples. R-CDs@BONs labeled with anti-E. coli O157:H7 monoclonal antibody (mAb@R-CDs@BONs-NH2) were used as the second recognition element to ensure the specificity for E. coli O157:H7 and form MNPs@B-N/APBAâ¼ E. coli O157:H7â¼mAb@R-CDs@BONs-NH2 sandwich complexes, followed by releasing R-CDs to generate amplified fluorescence response signals for quantitative detection of E. coli O157:H7. The proposed method had a limit of detection with 25 CFU/mL in pure culture and contaminated lettuce samples, which the whole detection process took about 120 min. This fluorescence signal amplification biosensor has the potential to detect other pathogens in food by altering specific antibodies.

The incidence of the tracheal diverticulum is low, and its risk to surgery and anesthesia has not been emphasized. This article reports a case of laryngeal cancer complicated with tracheal diverticulum, which was successfully rescued after mediastinal emphysema caused by the intraoperative replacement of a tracheal catheter. Operations such as anesthesia intubation may lead to severe complications such as pneumothorax due to diverticulum rupture, and the surgical team should pay more attention to the tracheal diverticulum.

Objective:To investigate the prognostic impact of different tumor invasion patterns in the surgical treatment of T3 glottic laryngeal cancer. Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 91 patients with T3 glottic laryngeal cancer. Results:Among the 91 patients, 58 cases ï¼63.7%ï¼ had anterior invasion and 33 cases ï¼36.3%ï¼ had posterior invasion. The posterior invasion was significantly correlated with invasions of the dorsal plate of cricoid cartilage ï¼P<0.001ï¼, arytenoid cartilage ï¼P= 0.001ï¼, and subglottic regionï¼P = 0.001ï¼. There was no statistical difference in survival outcomes between the total laryngectomy group and the partial laryngectomy group.

The tumor invasion pattern of laryngeal cancer should be further subdivided in order to select a more individualized treatment plan.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the validity and reliability of the Occupational Stress Scale (OSS) for Chinese offshore oil platform workers. METHODS: A 51-item self-administered questionnaire developed in the light of Cooper's questionnaire and company's special situation was used to investigate 561 subjects. RESULTS: 51 occupational stress items relating to offshore oil production were subjected to factor analysis, and nine latent factors were identified, which explained 62.5% of the total variance. According to the contents described by the items included in each factor, they were respectively defined as: "the interface between job and family/social life (factor 1)", "career and achievement (factor 2)", "safety (factor 3)", "management problem and relationship with others at work (factor 4)", "physical factors of workplace (factor 5)", "platform living environment (factor 6)", "role in management (factor 7)", "ergonomics (factor 8)" and "organization structure (factor 9)". Significant difference in the score of five factors was observed among 12 different job categories by analysis of variance. After adjusting for potential confounding factors (age, educational level), hierarchical multiple regression analysis indicated that the score of the OSS was significantly and positively correlated with the poor mental health of the workers (P < 0.01). The consistent test between OSS and each factor showed that Cronbach's alpha were 0.72 - 0.91. CONCLUSION: The OSS is a valid and reliable tool for measuring occupational stress, and can be used to explore occupational stress and its influence on health and safety problems in offshore oil workers.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the association between occupational stress and other socio-psychological factors and work-related unintentional injury in off-shore oil production. METHODS: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 561 Chinese off-shore oil workers. They were inquired with a self-administered questionnaire involving in socio-demographic characteristics, occupational stress, type A behavior personnel, social support and coping style, and work-related unintentional injury in the past year. RESULTS: Seventy-six (13.5%) workers experienced work-related unintentional injury for once time or more in the past year. A total 141 number of person-times were counted including 18 person-times being serious injury, 26 person-times moderate, and 97 person-times light. After adjustment for age, educational level, marital status, duration of off-shore work and job title, logistic regression indicated that perceived stress from "management problem and relationship with others" were significantly associated with work-related unintentional injuries in the past year (OR = 1.33, 95% CI: 1.05-1.68; P < 0.05). Workers lack of emotional support from friends seemed to less reporting on work-related unintentional injuries (OR = 0.37, 95% CI: 0.22-0.63). CONCLUSION: The results implied emphasizing on that the training and guidance as well as better cooperation among the workers might reduce work-related unintentional injuries in off-shore oil industry.
