Objectives: This study aims to explore the current status and risk factors of oral health-related quality of life OHRQoL in patients with mental disorders and provide evidence for effective intervention measures.
Methods: A total of 397 patients diagnosed with mental illness were selected by convenience sampling, and investigation was carried out using general data questionnaire, health literacy in dentistry-14 (HeLD-14), oral health impact profile-14 (OHIP-14), and oral health status checklist.
Results: The total score of OHIP-14 in patients with mental disorders was 8(2, 14).
Purpose: To evaluate the current status of discharge readiness among postoperative oral cancer patients and identify the primary associated factors.
Methods: Information from 713 oral cancer patients was collected using questionnaire surveys. One-way ANOVA or t-tests were employed to compare differences in discharge readiness across various demographic characteristics.
Objective: To develop and validate a predictive model for identifying vascular crises following free tissue flap transplantation in patients undergoing surgery for oral and maxillofacial tumors.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study utilized medical records from the Department of Head and Neck Oncology, West China Hospital of Stomatology, Sichuan University, covering the period from January 2014 to December 2021. The analysis included 1,786 cases, divided into a training group (n = 1,251) and a validation group (n = 535).

Objectives: This study aimed to explore the risk factors of postoperative hypokalemia in patients with oral cancer and to provide a basis for preventing and controlling postoperative hypokalemia.
Methods: We included 366 patients undergoing oral cancer surgery in the Department of Head and Neck Oncology, West China Hospital of Stomatology, Sichuan University from January 2022 to August 2022. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to determine the risk factors of postoperative hypokalemia.

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the incidence and severity of surgical fear in patients with oral and maxillofacial tumors.
Methods: The survey participants were composed of patients with oral and maxillofacial tumors, who were scheduled to undergo surgery. A general information questionnaire, the Surgical Fear Questionnaire (SFQ), the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ)-9, and the Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)-7 score were used for the investigation.

Objectives: This study aims to identify autonomous risk factors for postoperative dysphagia in oral cancer patients and construct a nomogram prediction model to improve risk assessment accuracy and feasibility in clinical settings.
Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted from March to July 2022 among oral cancer patients undergoing surgical interventions at the Department of Head and Neck Surgery. Clinical data were collected using the Postoperative Dysphagia Risk Factor Questionnaire.

Facial nerve training can prevent facial expression muscle atrophy and promote the recovery of facial para-lysis in patients with peripheral facial paralysis. However, there is still a lack of specific and unified technical standards for facial nerve training, which results in a variety of clinical training methods and uneven levels. In order to standardize the application of facial nerve function training technology for nursing staff, the study convened relevant domestic experts, based on evidence-based combination with the disease characteristics of peripheral facial paralysis and expert clinical experience, conducted in-depth interviews with experts, expert correspondence and expert meetings, and finally formulated the expert consensus on facial nerve function training in patients with peripheral facial paralysis.

The ability to predict surgical site infections (SSIs) early would be advantageous. Previous studies have investigated the use of inflammatory factors in fluids drained from surgical sites to predict SSI, but the diagnostic efficacy of this method requires improvement. Baseline levels of inflammatory factors vary between individuals, but this variation tends to differ in patients with and without SSIs.

Due to the complex mechanisms of HNC and lack of effective biomarkers, the 5-year survival rate of HNC has been low and the mortality rate has been high in recent decades. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), noncoding RNAs longer than 200 bps, are a focus of current cancer research, closely related to tumor biology.

Objective: This study explores the application of gastric tube interposition by touching laryngeal prominence in postoperative oral cancer patients.
Methods: This trial includes 66 patients treated in the West China Hospital of Stomatology from August 2014 to December 2014. These patients were randomly divided into two groups: the test group included 33 patients who underwent gastric tube interposition by touching laryngeal prominence; the 33 other patients, who served as control group, underwent regular gastric tube interposition.

Objective: To study the effect of risk management in nursing management of head and neck oncology.
Methods: In 2010, risk management was applied to the nursing management of head and neck oncology through risk identification, increasing awareness of risk management, defining risk management responsibilities, strengthening the capacity of specialist nurses and emergency response, and strengthening risk control measures. Patients' satisfaction, care complaints, nursing risk occurrence, nurse praised visits between 2009 and 2010 were compared.
