RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES@#This study was performed to investigate the effects of hyperbaric oxygen and other approaches for treating the osteoradionecrosis of the jaws (ORNJ) systematically.@*METHODS@#According to the preset inclusion and exclusion criteria, randomized controlled trials and cohort studies on hyperbaric oxygen in the treatment of ORNJ were screened, and foreign language databases such as PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane library were searched via a computer; Chinese databases such as CNKI, VIP, Wanfang data, and CBM were searched from the established database to September 2020. Relevant books were searched manually to collect all literatures on the efficacy of hyperbaric oxygen and its related therapies in ORNJ treatment. Two researchers were independent and mutually blind, the papers were selected, data were collected, and the bias risk was evaluated. If any difference was detected, it would be decided by discussion or arbitrated by a third party. The data related to the efficacy of hyperbaric oxygen and its related therapy in the treatment of the ORNJ were extracted, and the Revman5.4 software was used for Meta-analysis. In case of large heterogeneity, sensitivity analysis was performed. A funnel chart was used to evaluate possible publication bias qualitatively.@*RESULTS@#Four randomized controlled trials and seven cohort studies were included in Meta-analyses. In ORNJ treatment, no significant differences between the group subjected to hyperbaric oxygen and both surgery and antibiotics and the group that underwent both surgery and antibiotics (RR=1.16, 95%CI: 0.86~1.58, @*CONCLUSIONS@#Hyperbaric oxygen therapy cannot replace surgery and antibiotic therapy. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is not superior to antibiotics and antifibrotic drugs, but the benefits of antifibrotic drugs should be further explored.

@#Radioactive jaw necrosis is a serious complication of head and neck radiotherapy. This complication's main characteristics are chronic necrosis and infection, and its clinical manifestations are local pain, mouth opening re'striction, speech disorder, dysphagia, exposure of dead bone, prolonged healing of facial and neck soft tissue fistula, and even pathological fracture, which brings great pain to the patient's body and mind. Radioactive jaw necrosis has become a clinical problem in the field of medicine, specifically for maxillofacial surgery of the external head and neck. The pathogenesis of radiation-induced jaw necrosis is still unclear, but high radiotherapy dose, extraction of teeth after radio-therapy and surgical trauma are recognized as high-risk factors. The diagnosis of radiation-induced jaw necrosis needs to be combined with the patient's radiotherapy history, clinical symptoms and imaging examination. Conservative or sur-gical treatment should be selected according to its clinical classification and stages, and the prevention of radiation-in- duced jaw necrosis should be emphasized. The key points are to remove dental caries, residual roots and crowns before radiotherapy; improve radiotherapy technology; and take preventive measures against high-risk factors. In recent years, the diagnosis and treatment of radiation-induced jaw necrosis has gradually become standardized and individualized.This article reviews the progress of treatment and research on radiation-induced jaw necrosis at home and abroad in terms of its definition, etiology, risk factors, diagnosis, treatment and prevention to provide reference for clinical treat-ment.
RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the level and influencing factors of quality of life in patients with osteoradionecrosis of the jaws (ORNJ) in order to provide theory basis for nursing intervention. Methods Ninety-five patients hospitalized from January 2015 to Febury 2017 and participated in the investigation by a convenient sampling method. The functional assessment of cancer therapy-head and neck (FACT-H&N), social support rating scale (SSRS) and general information questionnaire were used to assess the quality of life, social support and basic information in ORNJ patients in our hospital respectively. Results The score of quality of life was (79.99 ±15.72). The index value of common module of quality of life was higher than that of additional concern. The average scores of each dimension of common module from low to high were as follows: functional well-being, social/family well-being, physical well-being and emotional well-being. The multiple linear regression analysis showed that the influencing factors of quality of life were social support, severe mouth opening difficulty (grade Ⅲ and Ⅳ), the course of primary disease (3 ～5 years, 5 ～10 years), which explained 35.6％variation in the quality of life. Conclusions The quality of life of ORNJ patients is generally lower than that of other head and neck cancer patients. The social support, severe mouth opening difficulty and course of primary disease can affect the patients' quality of life.The smaller the mouth opening (≤1 cm), the longer the course of primary disease (3～5 years) and the worse the quality of life is. Thus, nursing staff should pay attention to the quality of life of ORNJ patients and give prospective nursing intervention to improve the quality of life according to the characteristics of the development of the disease.
