The medical mobile learning platform was constructed according to the information need of teachers and students in Shanxi Medical University, Changzhi Medical College, and Fenyang Medical College.The teaching and learning resources in Shanxi Medical University were integrated into the platform which could thus provide a variety of interactive learning ways for its users and users could rapidly find out their interested information resources. However, the platform construction needs the implementation of incentive measures, and regulations and rules for the protection of intellectual property rights.

Objective To analyze the effects of laparoscope-assisted Ivor-Lewis surgery on perioperative stress,immune responses and intestinal barrier function in elderly patients with esophageal cancer.Methods A prospective study including 55 elderly esophageal cancer patients undergoing laparoscope-assisted Ivor Lewis surgery (the treatment group,n =25) and Ivor-Lewis surgery(the control group,n=25) was conducted.The white blood cell count,neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio,percentages of CD4 and CD8 cells,CD4/CD8 ratio,C reactive protein (CRP) and D-lactic acid levels were compared between the two groups before and at 1,4 and 7 d after operation.Results The white blood cell count(t =2.689,P =0.010) and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (t =3.300,P =0.002)were lower in the treatment group than in the control group at 1 d after operation.The percentage of CD4 cells was higher in the treatment group than in the control group at 1 d(t =2.242,P =0.029)and 4 d(t =2.031,P =0.047) after operation.The percentage of CD8 cells was higher in the treatment group than in the control group at 1 d after operation(t =2.041,P=0.046).The CD4/CD8 ratio was higher in the treatment group than in the control group at 1 d(t =2.833,P =0.007)and 4 d(t=2.111,P=0.036)after operation.The CRP level was lower in the treatment group than in the control group at 1 d(t=2.267,P=0.028)and 4 d(t =2.111,P =0.036)after operation.The D-lactic acid level was lower in the treatment group than in the control group at 1 d(t =2.267,P=0.028),4 d (t =7.967,P ＜ 0.01) and 7 d (t =2.541,P =0.014) after operation.Conclusions Laparoscopeassisted Ivor-Lewis surgery has good protective effects on perioperative stress,immune responses and intestinal barrier function in elderly patients with esophageal cancer.

Objective To evaluate the effects of artemisinin on proliferation,cell cycle and apoptosis of gallbladder cancer cells.Methods Gallbladder carcinoma cell lines (GBC-SD and NOZ) were cultured in vitro.The effects of artemisinin in different concentration on proliferation of the two cell lines in vitro were examined using MTT assay.The cell cycle distribution of GBC-SD and NOZ cells 24 h after treatments with artemisinin(20 μ mol/L) were examined using flow cytometry.The apoptosis of GBC-SD and NOZ cells 24 h after treatments with artemisinin (20 μ mol/L) were examined using Annexin V/PI staining.The expressions of p-ERK1/2,CDK4,cyclin D1,p16,cytochrome C and caspase-3 were examined by Western blot assay.t-test and one way ANOVA were used to evaluate the differences between two groups and more than two groups,respectively.Results The cell proliferation was significantly inhibited by artemisinin,the ICS0 of artemisinin against GBC-SD and NOZ cells were 14.05 μmol/L and 12.42 μmol/L,respectively.Artemisinin induced cycle arrest,and G1 population of GBC-SD and NOZ cells increased to 74.60％ and 78.86％.Cell apoptosis and apoptotic population of GBC-SD and NOZ cells were increased to 15.67％ and 16.51％ after dealt with artemisinin,respectively.In addition,expression of pl6 was increased,and expressions of p-ERK1/2,CDK4 and cyclin D1 were down-regulated by artemisinin(all P ＜0.05).Cytochrome C was released from mitochondria to cytoplasm leading to the activation of caspase-3 and PARP after dealt with artemisinin (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The inhibition effect of artemisinin on the proliferation gallbladder cancer cells is accompanied by down-regulation of ERK1/2 signaling pathway,G1 phase arrest and triggering caspase-3-mediate apoptosis.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the performance of machine learning models and traditional Cox regression model in predicting postoperative outcomes of patients with esophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma (AEG). METHODS: This study was conducted among 203 AEG patients with complete clinical and follow-up data, who were treated in our hospital between September, 2015 and October, 2020. The clinicopathological data of the patients were processed for analysis using R language package and divided into training and validation datasets at the ratio of 3:1. The Cox proportional hazards regression model and 4 machine learning models were constructed for analyzing the datasets. ROC curves, calibration curves and clinical decision curves (DCA) were plotted. Internal validation of the machine learning models was performed to assess their predictive efficacy. The predictive performance of each model was evaluated by calculating the area under the curve (AUC), and the model fitting was assessed using the calibration curve. RESULTS: For predicting 3-year survival based on the validation dataset, the AUC was 0.870 for Cox proportional hazard regression model, 0.901 for eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), 0.791 for random forest, 0.832 for support vector machine, and 0.725 for multilayer perceptron; For predicting 5-year survival, the AUCs of these models were 0.915, 0.916, 0.758, 0.905, and 0.737, respectively. For internal validation, the AUCs of the 4 machine learning models decreased in the order of XGBoost (0.818), random forest (0.758), support vector machine (0.0.804), and multilayer perceptron (0.745). CONCLUSION The machine learning models show better predictive efficacy for survival outcomes of patients with AEG than Cox proportional hazard regression model, especially when proportional odds assumption or linear regression models are not applicable. XGBoost models have better performance than the other machine learning models, and the multi-layer perception model may have poor fitting results for a limited data volume.
