Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The clinical trial study aims to screen the genotype of children with neuroblastoma and conduct an in-depth analysis of sequencing data and tumor-specific transcripts by using technologies--Deep Sequencing Technology and Third Generation Sequencing Technology.
The main questions this study aims to answer are: \[Question 1\]This study will use Third Generation Sequencing technology to find specific transcript variants associated with cancer differentiation; \[Question 2\]This study will identify possible tissue differential expression by using the Deep Sequencing Technology.
Participants will undergo surgery, during which doctors will remove tumor tissue and adjacent normal tissue. In this experiment, the tumor tissue of children with neuroblastoma will be used as the experimental group, and the adjacent normal tissue will be used as the control group. In this study, the different genotypes of children with neuroblastoma are screened by Deep Sequencing Technology and Third Generation Sequencing Technology. And according to the difference in genotypes, doctors will treat children with neuroblastoma personally. This study hopes to find new single nucleotide polymorphism and therapeutic targets.

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Firstly, researchers collect tumor tissues and adjacent normal tissues of 20 children with neuroblastoma meeting the inclusion criteria and collect their clinical data. In this experiment, the tumor tissue of children with neuroblastoma will be used as the experimental group, and the adjacent normal tissue will be used as the control group.
Secondly, researchers will find differentially expressed genes using Deep Sequencing technology and Third Generation Sequencing Technology to sequence 7 neuroblastoma cell lines. The expression of the transcription isoforms was divided into one group of N-myc gene amplification and another group of N-myc gene non-amplification by using Third Generation Sequencing Technology. After extracting the total RNA from tissues, researchers check the RNA's purity, concentration, and integrity. If the RNA is tested up to standard, researchers will build a gene library. After the construction of the gene library is completed, researchers will use the machine to sequence tissues.
Finally, survival analysis and repeated measurements will be used to analyze the data of the experimental group and control group in this experiment. T-test will be used for measurement data. χ2 test will be used for counting data. Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression analysis will be used for survival analysis. All statistical analyses will be performed using Statistical Analysis Software (Stata 26.0). P \< 0.05 is considered significant.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
neuroblastoma group
The resected tumor tissue of patients with neuroblastoma was taken by surgical operation as experimental group.
Personalized surgical therapy of neuroblastoma
If the size of the tumor tissue is too large, the doctor gives the patient chemotherapy and then performs surgery to remove the tumor. In this study, the genotypes of children with neuroblastoma are screened by using Deep Sequencing Technology and Third Generation Sequencing Technology, and the treatment will be performed according to different therapeutic modalities.
Normal tissue adjacent to the tumor group
The normal tissue adjacent to tumor of patients with neuroblastoma was taken by surgical operation as control group.
No interventions assigned to this group
