Objective To investigate the distribution of divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1) in the cerebellum of APP/PS1 transgenic mouse. Methods Immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, and confocal laser scanning microscopy were used to analyze the relationship between DMTl and amyloid beta (Aβ) and their distribution in senile plaques. Western blotting was used to analyze DMT1 protein level in the APP/PS1 transgenic mouse cerebellum. Results DMTl and Aβ were mainly located in the amyloid plaques, which were predominately located in the molecular layer of the cerebellar cortex of the transgenic mouse. Only a few plaques could be seen in the Purkinje cell layer and granular layer. Confocal laser microscopy revealed the DMTl and Aβ were co-localized in senile plaques. Conclusion The abundant expression of DMTl protein suggests that DMTl and the divalent metal ions that it transports might be involved in the formation of Aβ senile plaques and other pathological processes in the cerebellum in Alzheimer' s disease.

An important issue facing university education is the adaptation and transformation of freshmen.In order to guide students to adapt to the needs of research-based learning,Jilin University has opened a freshman seminar for all first-year undergraduate students,emphasizing the cultivation of students'thinking patterns and learning abilities.For medical students,it is necessary to ap-ply the learned medical knowledge to clinical problem analysis.Therefore,it is particularly important to cultivate students'integrated thinking from basic to clinical at the beginning of enrollment.In recent years,organ system integration has gradually been carried out in medical schools both domestically and internationally.In the course of integrating the immune system and diseases,the morphology of the immune system is relatively abstract and difficult to observe.In the early stages of enrollment,students still lack the thinking of organ system integration,and the initial stage of immune system integration courses is difficult to carry out.Therefore,we aimed to guide students towards adaptability and academic transformation through freshman seminars,explored the integration of the immune system's organ system as a pathway,and used the BOPPPS teaching model as a means for preliminary exploration.In the freshman seminar,the main focus is on the"morphology and structure-mechanism and function-disease-diagnosis-treatment"of the immune sys-tem,helping students establish a learning mindset that integrates disease diagnosis and treatment based on basic medical courses such as immunology and anatomy.Using BOPPPS to reform the"teaching"of teachers,establishing a student-centered teaching model from six aspects:bridge,objective,pre-assessment,participatory learning,post-assessment and summary,can better guide students to actively think and participate in the entire learning process,focus on the construction of students'fragmented knowledge thinking mode,internalize medical humanities literacy,and improve the quality of medical talent cultivation in colleges and universities.

Objective To investigate the changes in the percentages of CD4+T lymphocyte subsets and the homeostasis of T lymphocytes among MSM ( men who have sex with men) population with different stages of HIV-1 infection. Methods A total of 166 untreated MSM with HIV infection were enrolled and di-vided into three groups including early HIV infection (EHI, n=38) , HIV (n=94) and AIDS (n=34) groups. Sixty-two MSM negative for anti-HIV antibody were selected as healthy controls. Blood samples were collected into EDTA tubes and detected to analyze the changes in the distribution of CD4+ T cells and CD8+T lymphocyte subsets ( CD4+ CD45RA+, CD8+ CD28+, CD4+ CD25+ CD127-) and the percentages of activated (CD38, HLA-DR) and apoptotic cells (CD95) with disease progression by flow cytometry. Re-sults The expression of CD4+CD45RA+ T lymphocytes gradually decreased with the progression of AIDS. The percentage of CD4+CD45RA+ T lymphocytes in HIV group was lower than that of the control group, but higher than that of the AIDS group (P=0. 015, P=0. 000). No significant difference was found between the EHI and the control groups (P>0. 05). CD8+CD28+T cells were significantly reduced in the EHI group and remained at a low level with disease progression. No significant difference in the proportion of CD4+CD25+CD127- T cells was observed among all groups (P>0. 05). The percentage of CD4+CD38+HLA-DR+T cells increased gradually and the highest level was detected in the AIDS group, followed by those in the HIV, EHI and control groups (P<0. 01). The percentages of CD8+CD38+, CD8+HLA-DR+, CD8+ CD38+HLA-DR+and CD8+CD95+T cells in the EHI, HIV and AIDS groups were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0. 01), but there was no significant difference among the former three groups (P>0. 05). Con-clusion HIV infection caused the changes in the numbers and functions of T lymphocyte subsets and accel-erated the activation and apoptosis of T lymphocytes, which aggravated the T lymphocyte immune dysfunction even further. A comprehensive analysis of the alterations in different T cell subsets would be conducive to re-flect the immune deficiency and the severity of disease. CD4+ and CD8+ T cells were activated in the early stage of HIV infection, which indicated that studying the immune response during that stage might help to understand their roles in disease progression.

Eyelid tumor is a serious eye disease that leads to vision loss or even blindness.The similarity between benign and malignant characteristics makes it difficult for ophthalmologists lacking clinical experience to distinguish between them.To address the problem,a method(ResNet101_CBAM)based on two-stage target localization using fully convolutional one-stage object detection(FCOS)and residual network incorporating a dual attention mechanism is proposed to realize the automatic diagnosis of benign and malignant eyelid tumors.FCOS is used to automatically localize the overall contour of the orbit,removing the background and surrounding noise,and then finely localize the tumor lesion inside the orbit.The obtained lesion region is input into ResNet101_CBAM for the automatic diagnosis of benign and malignant eyelid tumors.The experimental results show that the average precision of the target localization algorithm for tumor lesion is 0.821,and that compared with ResNet101,ResNet101_CBAM improves the sensitivity and accuracy in eyelid tumor classification by 4.7%and 3.0%,respectively,indicating that the proposed model has superior performances in the automatic diagnosis of benign and malignant eyelid tumors.

In recent years, artificial intelligence-related technologies have been deeply combined with many medical fields, and the intersection of medicine and engineering has become a hot topic. There are problems with heavy data and difficulty making decisions in orthopedic disease diagnosis and treatment. Machine learning is an important method of artificial intelligence. Since it can automatically analyze and predict medical big data, it is widely used in the field of orthopedics. It also assists physicians in completing disease diagnosis and treatment efficiently. In this review paper, the application and progress of machine learning in preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative diagnosis and treatment in orthopedics are reviewed, providing new ways for exploring more rational diagnosis and treatment strategies.

Objective:To survey the perceived social support status and influencing factors of medical staffs working in community health service institutions in Shanghai Minhang District .Methods:The study was a cross-sectional study. From September 2022 to January 2023, a survey on the status of perceived social support was conducted among 181 medical staffs working in community health service institutions in Shanghai Minhang District. The self-designed general information questionnaire, perceived social support scale, general self-efficacy scale, quality of professional life scale, and trait coping style scale were used in the survey. The effects of demographic characteristics, general self-efficacy, empathy fatigue and trait coping style on perceived social support status of community medical workers were analyzed.Results:A total of 181 questionnairs were distributed and 178 valid ones returned with a valid recovery rate of 98.3%. In three dimensions of perceived social support, family support scored (17.11±8.87), friend support scored (17.08±8.41), other support scored (19.89±4.09), and the total score of understanding social support was (60.99±11.71). There were 2 cases of low support status (1.12%), 81 cases of intermediate support status (45.51%), and 95 cases of high support status (53.37%). Univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in perceived social support among participants with different ages, marriage status, majors, professional titles, job satisfaction, positive or negative coping styles, general self-efficacy, and empathy fatigue ( P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that people aged 40 and above had a higher degree of perceived social support than those under 40 ( OR=2.792, 95% CI: 1.051-7.418, P<0.05); compared with public health professionals, clinical medicine, nursing and other medical technique professionals had a higher degree of perceived social support ( OR=4.024, 95% CI: 1.479-10.953; OR=2.941, 95% CI: 1.031-8.393; OR=3.996, 95% CI: 0.543-29.409, all P<0.05); compared with those who were less satisfied with their self-assessment work, participants who were more satisfied or generally satisfied with their self-assessment work had lower perceived social support ( OR=0.200, 95% CI: 0.051-0.781; OR=0.320, 95% CI: 0.146-0.701, all P<0.05); compared with those with mild and moderate empathy fatigue, participants with high empathy fatigue had lower perceived social support ( OR=0.406, 95% CI: 0.182-0.909, P<0.05). Except supporting primary and secondary traumatic stress, the total score of perceived social support and its dimensions were positively correlated with empathy satisfaction; and negatively correlated with job burnout and secondary traumatic stress. Regression analysis shows that empathy satisfaction had a positive predictive effect on overall scores of perceived social support and its dimensions of friend support and other support capacity. Conclusions:The social support status of community healthcare workers in Shanghai Minhang district is generally acceptable. However, it is important to pay special attention to the social support status of those who are under 40 years old, have a background in public health, are satisfied with their work, and experience a high level of empathy fatigue. Measures should be implemented to specifically enhance empathy satisfaction among healthcare workers; timely guidance and intervention should be provided accordingly.

Objective To investigate the pattern of nodal recurrence after curative resection in adenocarcinoma of the gastroesophageal junction ( AGE ) , and to provide a basis for delineation of the radiation range in the high-risk lymphatic drainage area.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed in 78 patients with locally advanced AGE who were newly treated in our hospital from January 2009 to December 2013 and had complete clinical data.All patients received curative resection and were pathologically diagnosed with stage T3/T4 or N (+) AGE.Those patients were also diagnosed with SiewertⅡor Ⅲ AGE by endoscopy, upper gastroenterography, macroscopic examination during operation, and pathological specimens.None of the patients received preoperative or postoperative radiotherapy.All patients were diagnosed by imaging with postoperative nodal recurrence.The computed tomography images of those
patients were accessible and had all the recurrence sites clearly and fully displayed.Results The median time to recurrence was 10 months ( 1-48 months) , and 90%of the recurrence occurred within 2 years after surgery.The lymph nodes with the highest risk of recurrence were No.16b1( 39%) , No.16a2( 37%) , No.9 (30%), and No.11p (26%), respectively.There was no significant difference in the recurrence rate within each lymphatic drainage area between patients with SiewertⅡandⅢAGE ( P=0.090-1.000) .The lymph nodes with the most frequent recurrence were No.16b1, No.16a2, No.9, No.16b2, No.11p, and No.7 in patients with stage N3 AGE and No.11p, No.16b1, No.16a2, No.9, No.8, and No.7 in patients with stage non-N3 AGE.Patients with stage N3 AGE had a significantly higher recurrence rate in the para-aortic regions (No.16a2-b2) than those with stage non-N3 AGE (67%vs.33%, P=0.004, OR=4.00, 95% CI=1.54-10.37) .Conclusions The lymph nodes with the highest risk of recurrence are located in the celiac artery, proximal splenic artery, and retroperitoneal areas ( No.16a2 and No.16b1) in patients with SiewertⅡorⅢlocally advanced AEG.Moreover, patients with stage N3 AGE have a higher risk of retroperitoneal recurrence.The above areas should be involved in target volume delineation for postoperative radiotherapy.
