Allergic reactions in neurosurgical procedures are uncommon, but they are detrimental to a patient's prognosis and recovery. By synthesizing data collected from other surgical fields, possible triggers and alternatives have been identified. Current treatment guidelines involve stabilizing the patient in emergency situations, symptom management, and identification of causative allergens. Preoperative allergy screening is uncommon due to the low prevalence of perioperative hypersensitivity reactions. However, preoperative questionnaire screening can identify when preoperative allergy screening, premedication, or use of a material alternative is necessary. Greater emphasis on material alternatives, increased preoperative screening, and more data can improve the prognosis of neurosurgical patients at risk of perioperative allergic complications.

Neck trauma has the characteristics of diversity, complexity, and danger. Mild injuries generally require debridement and suturing or symptomatic treatment. In severe cases, acute laryngeal obstruction, subcutaneous emphysema, severe deformation and collapse of laryngeal and tracheal cartilage, or damage to adjacent organs may occur. If not diagnosed in a timely manner or mishandled, it can endanger the patient’s life or leave sequelae. If foreign body residue is caused by head and neck trauma, a reasonable judgment should be made based on the patient’s condition and corresponding measures should be taken. Accurate localization of foreign bodies before and during surgery, as well as appropriate surgical methods, are key to ensuring successful treatment. This article reports a case of a small foreign body in the neck admitted to Xianning Central Hospital at the end of January 2023.

Lifestyle factors play a crucial role in the influence of semen quality, and they are especially significant in the context of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) clinical treatment for poor semen quality. TCM theory emphasizes the importance of healthy lifestyle habits for overall well-being. Therefore, it is essential to consider lifestyle factors in the clinical management of TCM and semen quality. Lifestyle can act as a bias factor that affects research quality, making it vital to pay special attention to its impact in clinical trial research on male semen quality. This article aims to improve the quality and design of clinical research on male sperm quality by examining the effects of various lifestyle factors on semen quality, including physical activities, dietary patterns, smoking, alcohol consumption, coffee intake, sleep, and psychological stress. Each lifestyle factor has its own distinct influence on semen quality, and there is a synergistic effect when multiple lifestyle factors are combined. These findings emphasize the need for careful consideration of lifestyle factors and their interactions in the design and implementation of TCM clinical trial research.
