Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common cancers in the worldwide.In recent years,the development of imaging techniques has facilitated the detection of HCC at early stages.However,HCC has a high frequency of portal vein invasion,which is reportedly observed in 11％ to 42％ of patients with HCC.Portal vein tumor thrombus(PVTT) is a crucial factor that can worsen the prognosis of HCC because it can be wide dissemination of tumor throughout the liver and cause a marked deterioration of hepatic function.It was considered that is not appropriate with surgical treatment in the past,which is treatment conservative or even give up,most of the patients died within a few months.Even if the patients have a chance to surgical resection,and the most of patients combined with TACE,portal vein stent implantation or chemotherapy postoperative,some patients can be more prolonged survival,however,due to the small tumor thrombus and micro metastases have exist before the surgery and can not be checked out.it's difficult to clean up in the surgery,easily lead to HCC recurrence postoperative.However,with the constant awareness the PVTT formation mechanism and scientific technology progress,more and more new treatment techniques is applied to clinical.This view focuses on the portal vein tumor thrombus formation mechanisms and Classic Transcatheter Arterial Chemoembolization and new treatment methods such as:Helical tomotherapy,CIK cell therapy (cytokine-induced killer cell therapy),Chemoembolization and stent combined with iodine-125 seed.

Biliary atresia(BA) is a serious digestive system disease caused by the obliteration of intrahepatic and extrahepatic biliary system of infancy.Without prompt treatment,BA can cause biliary cirrhosis,and ultimately cause liver failure,leading to death.The early diagnosis of BA is crucial to the early treatment.At present,liver biopsy is considered to be the gold standard of diagnosis of BA,but this method has some shortcomings such as invasive,repeated sampling and subjectivity.In contrast,ultrasonography (US),magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and hepatobiliary scintigraphy(HBS) gradually play important roles in clinical diagnoses of BA and become the hotspot of BA diagnoses.This paper focuses on reviewing the clinical applications of BA imaging diagnoses and the latest research progress.

Objective To observe the content of macrophage inflammatory protein-1α(MIP-1α)in plasma and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and the expressions of MIP-1α mRNA and nuclear factor-kappa B( NFκB)p65 mRNA in the lung of rats subjected to mechanical ventilation with high tidal volume. Method Thirty-two healthy Wistar rats were randomly ( random number) divided into control group, ventilator induced lung injury (VILI) group,dexamethasone (DEX) group and budesonide (BUD) group. The content of MIP-1α in plasma and BALF were measured with ELJSA and the expressions of MIP-1α mRNA and NF-κBp65 mRNA in lung of rat were detected by RT-PCR. The data distributed were expressed as (-x) ± s and were compared among 4 groups. Furthermore, the correlation between the content of MIP-1α and the expression of MIP-1α mRNA, and the correlation between the expression of MIP-1α mRNA and the expression of NF-κBp65 mRNA were analyzed in the latter three groups. Results With lessened lung injury ,the content of MIP-1αin plasma and BALF and the expressions of MIP-1α mRNA and NF-κBp65 mRNA in lungs of rats of DEX and BUD groups were significantly lower than those in VILI group ( P ＜ 0.001 ). Although the content of MIP-1α in plasma and BALF and the expressions of MIP-1α mRNA and NF-κBp65 mRNA in lungs of rats of BUD group were higher than those of DEX group, but no significant differences were found between them ( P ＞ 0.05). Correlation study showed that positive correlations were xisted between the MIP-1α in plasma and the expression of MIP-1α mRNA in the lungs ( r = 0.895, P ＜ 0.05)and between the expression of MIP-1α mRNA and the expression of NF-κBp65 mRNA in the lungs ( r=0.801, P ＜ 0.05). Conclusions Glucocorticoid could down-regulate the expression of MIP-1α mRNA by inhibiting the activity of NF-κB in the lungs and may have preventive and therapeutic effect to VILI to some extent. The effect of glucocorticoid used locally against VILI is simnilar to that of systemic administration with lesser adverse reactions.

OBJECTIVE:To prepare Coenzyme Q10 long-circulating liposomes,establish the determination method of content and entrapment efficiency,and prepare it into lyophilized preparation to improve its stability. METHODS:Coenzyme Q10 long-cir-culating liposomes were prepared by film dispersion method. Particle size and Zeta potential of liposomes were determined,and HPLC assay was used to determine the content of coenzyme Q10. Free drugs and liposomes were separated using protamine aggre-gation method,and the encapsulation efficiency was calculated. Lyophilized preparation was prepared by coenzyme Q10 long-circu-lating liposomes,and the changes of content and encapsulation efficiency of drugs were determined 0,30 and 90 days after lyophi-lization. RESULTS:The liposomes were homogeneous in size with mean diameter of(166.0±5.3)nm and Zeta potential of(-22.2± 1.4)mV. Average content(the percentage of content accounted for labeled amount)and entrapment efficiency of 3 batches of sam-ple were 98.2%(RSD=2.8%) and 93.2%(RSD=4.6%),respectively. Compared with 0 d after lyophilization,coenzyme Q10 long-circulating liposomes had no obvious change in the content and encapsulation efficiency 90 d after lyophilization. CONCLU-SIONS:Coenzyme Q10 long-circulating liposomes with high quality and entrapment efficiency and lyophilized preparation being stored stably for 90 d have been prepared successfully.

Objective: To conduct a scoping review on the types, construction methods and predictive performance of health literacy prediction models based on machine learning methods, so as to provide the reference for the improvement and application of such models. Methods: Publications on health literacy prediction models conducted using machine learning methods were retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP, PubMed and Web of Science from inception to May 1, 2024. The quality of literature was assessed using the Prediction Model Risk of Bias ASsessment Tool. Basic characteristics, modeling methods, data sources, missing value handling, predictors and predictive performance were reviewed. Results: A total of 524 publications were retrieved, and 22 publications between 2007 and 2024 were finally enrolled. Totally 48 health literacy prediction models were involved, and 25 had a high risk of bias (52.08%), with major issues focusing on missing value handling, predictor selection and model evaluation methods. Modeling methods included regression models, tree-based machine learning methods, support vector machines and neural network models. Predictors primarily encompassed factors at four aspects: individual, interpersonal, organizational and society/policy aspects, with age, educational level, economic status, health status and internet use appearing frequently. Internal validation was conducted in 14 publications, and external validation was conducted in 4 publications. Forty-two models reported the areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve, which ranged from 0.52 to 0.983, indicating good discrimination. Conclusion Health literacy prediction models based on machine learning methods perform well, but have deficiencies in risk of bias, data processing and validation.

Furthermore, the paper explores the implications of foreign HeLit-Schools research and practice for China under the context of "Healthy China" construction, as well as the key strategies for Chinese schools in the implementation of HeLit-Schools, aiming to provide a new perspective and theoretical support for Chinese schools to practice the "Healthy China initiative" and strengthen school construction from the perspective of health literacy.

Multiple primary lung cancer(MPLC)refers to patients with two or more primary lesions of lung cancer.It can be divided into synchronous MPLC(sMPLC)and metachronous MPLC(mMPLC)based on the timing of occurrence.In recent years,the detection rate of MPLC has gradually increased.However,considerable controversy exists in distinguishing MPLC from intrapulmonary metastasis(IM),especially when the histopathological types are identical.Given the significant differences in treatment strategies and prognosis in clinical practice currently,accurate diagnosis of MPLC is cru-cial for personalized precision therapy.Molecular genetics and sequencing technologies offer effective strategies for assessing the clonal origin of tumors.There have been reports of coexisting mutations in the epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR)and anaplastic lymphoma kinase(ALK)fusion genes in non-small cell lung cancer,but case of EGFR mutation following an ALK mutation has not been mentioned.This article accurately diagnoses and retrospectively analyzes the clinical data of a case of ALK mutant adenocarcinoma in a male patient who developed an EGFR mutation with multiple metastases four years after surgery,and reviews the relevant literature.This paper aims to deepen the understanding of mMPLC and provide clinical refer-ences for the diagnosis and treatment of such patients.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the clinical effect of biliary stent combined with intra-biliary radiofrequency ablation and stent alone in the treatment of malignant obstructive jaundice.Methods:The PubMed, Cochrane library, Embase, HowNet, Wanfang, Weipu were systematically searched, the search time was up to February 2021. To collect and compare the clinical efficacy studies of combined intra-biliary radiofrequency ablation in the treatment of patients with malignant obstructive jaundice before biliary stent placement. After literature screening, data extraction and quality assessment conducted by two independent reviewers. Meta-analysis was performed with the patients' 1-year survival rate, 6-month patency rate after biliary stent operation, and comparative changes in postoperative complications as the main outcome indicators.Results:Finally, 9 studies were included, comprising 2 randomized controlled studies (RCT) and 7 retrospective studies, involving a total of 443 patients, with 211 cases in the biliary stent combined with intra-biliary radiofrequency ablation group and 232 cases in the stent alone group. The results of meta-analysis showed that in two joint groups compared with the stent alone group, in overall analysis, the rate of re-obstruction of the biliary tract decreased 6 months after stenting ( OR=0.24, 95% CI: 0.13-0.42) and 1-year survival rate increased ( OR=3.79, 95% CI: 2.08-6.90), the differences are statistically significant ( P<0.001), there was no statistical difference in the complications ( P=0.13). In ERCP group, the rate of re-obstruction of the biliary tract decreased 6 months after stenting ( OR=0.21, 95% CI: 0.08-0.55), and the 1-year survival rate significant increase ( OR=3.63, 95% CI: 1.76-7.48), the differences are statistically significant ( P<0.01). In PTCD group, the rate of re-obstruction of the biliary tract decreased 6 months after stenting ( OR=0.25, 95% CI: 0.12-0.51), and the 1-year survival rate significant increase ( OR=4.13, 95% CI: 1.42-12.03), the differences are statistically significant ( P<0.01).
