RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the risk factors of acute kidney injury(stage 3)developed within 48 hours in elderly patients with sepsis, and to use them to develop a risk prediction model and then evaluate and externally validate the model.Methods:Clinical data of all elderly patients(age≥ 60 years)with sepsis in the intensive care medicine information database(MIMIC-Ⅳ v1.0)were extracted.Independent risk factors were determined by multivariate logistic regression analysis.A risk prediction model was constructed, a nomogram was drawn, and the receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)and the Hosmer-Lemeshow(H-L)test were used to evaluate the model's prediction accuracy and R-squared.Clinical data of elderly patients(age≥ 60 years)with sepsis admitted to the Department of Critical Care Medicine of the Second People's Hospital of Hefei from May 2019 to October 2021 were retrospectively collected and fed into the prediction model to conduct external validation.Results:A total of 1 977 elderly patients with sepsis were screened out from the MIMIC-IV database and included in the training set, of whom, 544 developed AKI-stage 3 within 48 hours.Univariate analysis was performed for factors that might be associated with acute kidney injury in elderly patients with sepsis.Compared with the normal group that did not progress to AKI stage 3, there were statistically significant differences in 28 indicators, such as the duration of ICU stay, intravenous fluid intake in 24 hours, and use of vasoactive drugs[5(3, 9)d vs.7(4, 12)d; 2.05(1.17, 3.27)ml·kg -1·h -1vs.2.37(1.47, 4.10)ml·kg -1·h -1; 761(53.11%) vs.375(68.93%), P<0.001]. Based on the results of multivariate logistic regression analysis, a prediction model was finally constructed with 9 variables: albumin( OR=0.983, 95% CI: 0.966-0.999, P=0.040), aspartate transaminase( OR=1.000, 95% CI: 1.000-1.000, P<0.001), APTT( OR=1.005, 95% CI: 1.001-1.009, P=0.028), total bilirubin( OR=1.003, 95% CI: 1.001-1.004, P=0.001), serum creatinine( OR=1.005, 95% CI: 1.004~1.007, P<0.001), Charlson score( OR=1.117, 95% CI: 1.061-1.177, P<0.001), intravenous fluid intake in 24 hours( OR=1.101, 95% CI: 1.034-1.173, P=0.003), weight( OR=1.023, 95% CI: 1.018-1.029, P<0.001), and mechanical ventilation( OR=2.412, 95% CI: 1.843-3.157, P<0.001). Then a nomogram was generated.The area under the ROC curve(AUC)of the prediction model was 0.755(95% CI: 0.731-0.780), and the H-L test was conducted( χ2=10.89, P=0.208>0.05), indicating a good fit.Data from 102 elderly patients were included in the validation set, with 27 cases that had developed AKI-stage3 within 48 hours, and were fed into the prediction model, with an AUC of 0.778(95% CI: 0.676-0.880)and χ2=3.72 and P=0.882>0.05 from the H-L test, consistent with the results of the training set. Conclusions:The model has some predictive value for acute kidney injury in elderly patients with sepsis.

Objective To investigate the treatment and prognosis of patients with papillary thyroid microcarcinoma. Methods The clinical and following-up data of 124 patients with papillary thyroid microcarcinoma treated at the Department of Head and Neck Surgery of Cancer Centre, SUN Yat-sen University from Jan 1990 to Dec 1999 were analyzed retrospectively for mortality and survival rate ( KaplanMeier). A multivariate analysis was performed in these patients by Cox proportional hazard model. Results The overall 10-year and 15-year survival rate of all 124 patients with papillary thyroid microcarcinoma were 94.9% and 92.5% respectively. The univariate analysis showed the prognostic factors significantly influencing the survival of patients included age (being worse for those of 35 years and older) at presentation, and the status of distant metastasis ( all P < 0. 05 ) , while gender, incidentally found at surgery, the size of primary tumor, the status of neck lymph node metastasis, recurrence after a primary resection, and the extent of surgical resection did not significantly effect the prognosis. Multivariate analysis showed the age more than 35 years at presentation was an independent risk factor indicating worse prognosis (P = 0. 045 ). Conclusioas The prognosis of patients with papillary thyroid microcarcinoma is satisfactory, but that is poor for those patients 35 years old and up at presentation and with distant metastasis.
RESUMEN
Objective To evaluate the clinical characters, management and prognostic factors of patients with differentiated invasive thyroid carcinoma (DITC). Methods The data were analyzed retrospectively for 114 DITC patients treated at Department of Head and Neck Surgery of Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center. Survival analysis was performed by Kaplan-Meier method, comparison among/between groups was performed using log-rank test, and multivariate analysis was carried out using Cox proportional hazard model. Results After surgery, 68 patients were with tumor residue. The 5-year and 10-year overall survival rate were 91.9% and 80.1% respectively in all patients, while the 10-year overall survival rate were 88.5% 、78.5% and 53.1% in no tumor residue group, micro-residue group and grossresidue group respectively. This study failed to prove that radiotherapy might improve the survival rate in patients with postoperative tumor residue. Multivariate analysis indicated that age, invasion to esophagus and recurrence predict the prognosis. Conclusion DITC may be treated mainly by surgical operation. Radical resection is the key factor in the treatment of DITC. Patients with DITC have a relatively poor prognosis.Age, esophagus invasion and status of tumor residue are the most important factors affecting the prognosis.

OBJECTIVE To assess the outcomesof three different therapeutic approaches for the treatment of T3N0M0(stage Ⅲ) glottic squamous cell carcinoma. METHODS Sixty-five cases of T3N0M0 glottic squamous cell carcinoma treated with curative intent by three different modalities include vertical hemilaryngectomy(VHL,n=21),total laryngectomy(TL,n=31)and radiotherapy(RT,n=13) were reviewed retrospectively. The survival rate,recurrence rate at the primary lesion site and jugular lymph node, and laryngeal preservation was compared among three methods. RESULTS There was no significant difference in the overall survival rates(Cox proportion hazard model) and recurrence rates at the primary lesion site or jugular lymph node among the three methods. Laryngeal function was preserved in 100% of the cases in the VHL and RT groups after initial treatment. CONCLUSION The three treatment modalities had statistically similar survival and recurrence rates. Patients treated with VHL and RT had a higher rate of laryngeal preservation compared to that of TL, hence VHL or RT is a valid alternative to TL in treating selected patients with T3N0M0 glottic squamous cell carcinoma.

RESUMEN
Purpose:To investigate the curative effect of T3 lesions of supraglottic carcinoma in our hospital and discuss the management of T3 lesions.Methods:33 cases of T3 supraglottic carcinoma hospitalized in Cancer Center of Sun Yat sen University of Medical Sciences from 1982 to 1991 were reviewed. All primary lesions were resected by surgery, including 27 total laryngectomy and 6 horizontal supraglottic laryngectomy. The treatment modality of the neck was as follows: Among 13 clinically positive neck 2 underwent radical neck dissection, 11 underwent selective neck dissection. Among 20 clinically N0 cases 1 underwent elective neck dissection and the rest watchful waiting. In this group 19 cases were treated by definitive surgery, the rest 14 cases managed by surgery plus radiotherapy.Results:The 5 year survival rate in our group was 63.6%(21/33), the 5 year tumor free survival rate was 57.6%(19/33) and the 5 year cumulative survival rate by Kaplan Meier was 63.9%. The 5 year survival rate in partial laryngectomy and total laryngectomy was 80% and 59.9% respectively, no significant difference was shown by Kaplan Meier analysis(Log Rank=0.82, P =0.3646). The 5 year survival rate in definitive surgery and surgery plus radiotherapy was 56.4% and 67.3% respectively. There was also no significant difference by Kaplan Meier analysis (Log Rank=0.61, P =0.4341). 5 cases presented primary relapse and 12 cases neck relapse in our group. The primary and neck control rate was 84.8%(28/33)and 63.6%(21/33)respectively.Conclusions:For T3 subtypes with pre epiglottic space or tongue base infiltration, horizontal supraglottic laryngectomy could abtain better result. One should be careful when applying partial laryngectomy in T3 with cord fixation. Although surgery plus radiotherapy could not significantly influence survival, it could have a tendency to get higher 5 year survival rate than definitive surgery. Radiotherapy and chmotherapy need to be study further.

RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the prognostic factors of differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) in patients younger than 45 years. Methods Clinical data of all patients less than 45 years old at presentation with DTC in our hospital from Jan 1985 to Dec 1997 were analyzed retrospectively. Single variable analysis was performed by life-table method. Multivariate analysis was performed by Cox proportional hazard model. Results Two hundred and seventy two cases were analyzed. The overall 10-year survival rate was 93. 0%. The main prognostic factors influencing survival were age at presentation, the status of lymph node metastasis and distant metastasis; distant metastasis was the risk factor independently influencing survival by multivariate analysis. Conclusions Distant metastasis is the factor influencing survival significantly. The prognosis of these patients without distant metastasis is good. Total or near-total thyroidectomy and postoperative 131I therapy may be essential for a better prognosis in patients with distant metastasis.
