OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the current status of clinical genetics specialization development and the diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities for hereditary diseases across medical institutions in Shanghai, and to assess the necessity and feasibility of establishing training bases for clinical genetics specialists.
METHODS:
By employing a cross-sectional survey design, the Clinical Genetics Committee of Shanghai Medical Association has conducted questionnaire surveys from March to April 2025 across 54 healthcare institutions in Shanghai (including 33 tertiary hospitals and 21 secondary hospitals). The survey involved administrative departments and medical personnel from 15 clinical specialties. The survey has covered current genetic disease diagnosis and treatment practices, relevant and specialised disease types, genetic department establishment, testing capabilities, personnel teams, and training requirements.
RESULTS:
The results revealed that 78.0% of clinical departments surveyed had treated patients with hereditary disorders. Shanghai possesses diagnostic and therapeutic expertise for over 95% of hereditary diseases listed in its rare disease catalogue, reflecting both the practical clinical demand for such conditions and the city's overall diagnostic and therapeutic strengths in this field. Nevertheless, significant disparities exist in the development of genetics departments across different tiers of healthcare institutions. Resources for genetic testing capabilities (including molecular, cellular, and biochemical testing) are also unevenly distributed across different tiers of hospitals. The survey further revealed that only 26.0% of departments believe that their current physician structure fully meets the diagnostic and treatment demands. Over 90% of departments consider standard training for clinical genetic specialists necessary, with 74.0% expressing willingness to participate in establishing training bases. Based on above findings and thorough deliberation, the Clinical Genetics Committee of the Shanghai Medical Association proposes advancing specialist training and discipline development through establishing a standard training system. The committee has drafted a three-year training protocol featuring a "joint training"-centered model, recommending a pilot-first, dynamically optimized strategy for steadily advancing training base development.
CONCLUSION
Shanghai faces substantial demand for genetic disease diagnosis and treatment, yet exhibits shortcomings in clinical genetics specialization development, resource allocation, and talent pipeline cultivation. To establish a standard training system holds significant practical importance and is underpinned by a broad demand.

Objective:To identify the relevant factors for the first-course remission of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and to develop a predictive model as well as assess its predictive capability.Methods:Clinical data of 749 patients newly diagnosed with AML admitted to the Department of Hematology, the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University, School of Medicine from January 1, 2019, to April 30, 2023, were collected and randomly divided into training and validation sets. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to determine variables associated with complete remission in the first course of induction therapy, and a predictive model was established based on these variables. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of the predictive model was plotted, and the area under the curve (AUC) was calculated.Results:The indicators predicting the first remission course included peripheral blood white blood cell count during onset, CBF::MYH11 fusion gene, CEBPA bZIP region mutation, myelodysplastic syndrome-related gene mutation, and induction chemotherapy regimen selection as independent factors for the first remission course. The model’s area under the training and validation curves was 0.738 (95% CI: 0.696-0.780) and 0.726 (95% CI: 0.650-0.801), respectively. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test results yielded P-values of 0.993 and 0.335, respectively. Conclusion:In this study, the developed model demonstrates a strong predictive capability for the efficacy of the first course of patients with AML, providing valuable guidance to clinicians in assessing patient prognosis and selecting appropriate treatment strategies.

Objective:To explore the value of deep learning models based on ultrafast dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (UF-DCE MRI) in predicting malignant breast lesions.Methods:The study was a cross-sectional study. Clinical and imaging data of 347 patients with breast lesions who received treatment at Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital from March 2023 to January 2024 were analyzed retrospectively. A total of 347 lesions were observed in the 347 patients, including 75 benign and 272 malignant lesions. The random number method was used to divide into the training set with 243 cases and the validation set with 104 cases in a ratio of 7∶3. All patients underwent breast UF-DCE MRI and conventional dynamic-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI). A 27-channel model (27-phase enhancement images of input UF-DCE MRI), a 3-channel model (3-phase enhancement images of input DCE-MRI), and a 1-channel model (1st-phase enhancement images of DCE-MRI) were built based on the pre-trained ResNet18 deep learning model on ImageNet. The efficacy of each model in predicting breast malignant lesions was analyzed using receiver operating characteristic curves and area under the curve (AUC). The differences of AUC were compared using DeLong test.Results:In the training and validation sets, the 27-channel model had the highest AUC for diagnosing malignant breast lesions, which were 0.848 (95% CI 0.818-0.877) and 0.784 (95% CI 0.752-0.817), respectively. DeLong test showed no statistically significant difference in the AUC values of the three models in the validation set for the diagnosis of malignant lesions of the breast in a two-by-two comparison ( P>0.05). UF-DCE MRI scans were 27 phases totaling 81 s with a temporal resolution of 3 s/phase; DCE-MRI scans were 3 phases totaling 270 s with a temporal resolution of 90 s/phase. Conclusions:The model combining UF-DCE MRI with deep learning demonstrates comparable efficacy to DCE-MRI deep learning model in diagnosing breast malignant lesions. However the UF-DCE MRI has the advantages of high temporal resolution and short scanning time, which makes this model valuable for precise diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer.
