Objective: To investigate the relationship between susceptibility and prognosis of laryngeal cancer and genetic polymorphisms in CYP1A1 GSTM1.
Methods: The genetic polymorphisms of CYP1A1 exon-7 and GSTM1 were analyzed by polymorphism-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique in peripheral blood leukocytes of 89 laryngeal cancer cases and 164 non-cancer controls.
Results: Either in the frequency of CYP1A1 (W, MW, M) and GSTM1 negative individual of laryngeal cancer were significantly higher than that in the controls(P < 0.05). Combined genetype of CYP1A1 and GSTM1, that is CYP1A1 W/GSTM1 (-), CYP1A1 MW/GSTM1 (-), CYP1A1 M/GSTM1 (+), CYP1A1 M/GSTM1 (-) had higher risk than those combined genotypes, which ratios were 1.42 (0.62-3.22), 1.67 (0.7-4.03), 2.55 (1.0-6.54) and 4.02 (1.65-9.79), respectively. Statistic analysis suggested an interaction between smoking and CYP1A1 M/GSTM1 (-) genotypes polymorphisms which increase risk of laryngeal cancer. There was no significant difference in the frequency of CYP1A1, GSTM1 individual with the development and prognosis of laryngeal cancer.
Conclusion: The present datas suggested that genetic polymorphisms of CYP1A1 and GSTM1 were susceptible to laryngeal cancer. Individuals with CYP1A1 M or GSTM1 (-) had increased risk of developing laryngeal cancer, but individuals with combined CYP1A1 M/GSTM1 (-) and smoking were more susceptible. Genetic polymorphisms of CYP1A1 and GSTM1 are not related with clinic process of laryngeal cancer.

Background: The advanced stage of cancer is a determining factor in poor prognosis. Head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC) are highly incident in Brazil, but similarly to many Low and Middle-Income Countries, data is limited regarding the proportion of tumours diagnosed at advanced clinical stages and the main factors associated with it. Therefore, this study aimed to identify the factors associated with advanced stage of HNSCC in Brazil.

Objective: This study aimed to clarify whether nutritional status at admission affects enteral nutrition weaning 6 months after surgery in patients with esophageal cancer.
Methods: This was a retrospective study of 81 patients who underwent subtotal esophageal cancer resection between April 2014 and February 2016. The survey items were as follows: 1) sex, 2) age, 3) presence or absence of family members living together, 4) clinical stage, 5) surgical procedure, 6) reconstructed organs, 7) nutritional status at admission, 8) presence or absence of postoperative complications (anastomotic leakage, chylothorax, and recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis), and 9) presence or absence of treatment other than surgery (chemo- or radiotherapy).

Background: Airway obstruction secondary to chyle leak is an exceptionally rare phenomenon. Here, we describe this complication in a patient with anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) undergoing consolidative surgery after BRAF-targeted therapy.
Methods: A 55-year-old man presented with a rapidly enlarging neck mass.

Objective: TRIB3 has been confirmed to participate in and regulate biological metabolic activities in head and neck tumors such as nasopharyngeal carcinoma and oropharyngeal carcinoma, so the purpose of this study was to explore whether there is a correlation between TRIB3 and Laryngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (LSCC) and to preliminarily explore the biological characteristics of TRIB3 in LSCC.
Methods: TRIB3 expression in the LSCC was analyzed based on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. CCK-8 assay, Colony Formation Assay, wound healing assay, and Transwell assay were performed to investigate the roles of TRIB3 in the proliferation, invasion and metastasis of LSCC.

Background And Objectives: Recent advances in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have shown promise in medical image interpretation, yet their utility in surgical contexts remains unexplored. This study evaluates six MLLMs' performance in interpreting diverse imaging modalities for laryngeal cancer surgery.
Methods: We analyzed 169 images (X-rays, CT scans, laryngoscopy, and pathology findings) from 50 patients using six state-of-the-art MLLMs.
