Objective:To investigate the advantage of three dimensional(3D)-printed tissue compensators in radiotherapy for superficial tumors at irregular sites.Methods:A subcutaneous xenograft model of prostate cancer in nude mice was established. Mice were randomly divided into no tissue compensator group( n=6), common tissue compensator group( n=6), and 3D-printed tissue compensator group( n=6). Computed tomography (CT) images of nude mice in the 3D-printed tissue compensator group were acquired. Compensator models were made using polylactic acid, and material properties were evaluated by measuring electron density. CT positioning images of the three groups after covering the corresponding tissue compensators were acquired to delineate the gross tumor volume (GTV). Nude mice in the three groups were irradiated with 6 MV X-rays at the prescribed dose. The prescribed dose for the three groups was 1 500 cGy. The dose distribution in the GTV of the three groups was calculated and compared using the analytical anisotropic algorithm in the Eclipse 13.5 treatment planning system. The metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor was used to verify the actual dose received on the skin surface of nude mice. Results:The air gap in the 3D-printed tissue compensator group and the common tissue compensator group was 0.20±0.07 and 0.37±0.07 cm 3, respectively ( t=4.02, P<0.01). For the no tissue compensator group, common tissue compensator group, and 3D-printed tissue compensator group, the D95% in the target volume was (1 188.58±92.21), (1 369.90±146.23), and (1 440.29±45.78) cGy, respectively ( F=9.49, P<0.01). D98% was (1 080.13±88.30), (1 302.76±158.43), and (1 360.23±48.71) cGy, respectively ( F=11.17, P<0.01). Dmean was (1 549.08±44.22), (1 593.05±65.40), and (1 638.87±40.83) cGy, respectively ( F=4.59, P<0.05). The measured superficial dose was (626.03±26.75), (1 259.83±71.94), and (1 435.30±67.22) cGy, respectively ( F=263.20, P<0.001). The percentage variation in tumor volume growth after radiation was not significantly different between the common tissue compensator group and the 3D-printed tissue compensator group ( P>0.05). Conclusions:3D-printed tissue compensators fit well to the body surface, which reduces air gaps, effectively increases the dose on the body surface near the target volume, and provides ideas for radiotherapy for superficial tumors at some irregular sites.

Insulin resistance refers to a decrease in the physiological utilization of normal concentrations of insulin by target organs such as liver and adipose tissue.Insulin resistance is central to a variety of metabolic diseases caused by obesity.FGF21 is a novel regulator of glycolipid metabolism,which has the effects of improving insulin resistance,reducing body weight,regulating blood lipids,promoting fatty acid oxidation,and increasing energy consumption.Metabolic surgery is effective in the treatment of obesity and insulin resistance,and the level of FGF21 changes after surgery.This article will review the possible mechanisms of metabolic surgery to mediate FGF21 to improve insulin resistance.

Objective:To predict the short-term postoperative recurrence status of patients with refractory temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) by analyzing preoperative 18F-FDG PET images and patients′ clinical characteristics based on deep residual neural network (ResNet). Methods:Retrospective analysis was conducted on preoperative 18F-FDG PET images and clinical data of 220 patients with refractory TLE (132 males and 88 females, age 23.0(20.0, 30.2) years)) in the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University between January 2014 and June 2020. ResNet was used to perform high-throughput feature extraction on preprocessed PET images and clinical features, and to perform a postoperative recurrence prediction task for differentiating patients with TLE. The predictive performance of ResNet model was evaluated by ROC curve analysis, and the AUC was compared with that of classical Cox proportional risk model using Delong test. Results:Based on PET images combined with clinical feature training, AUCs of the ResNet in predicting 12-, 24-, and 36-month postoperative recurrence were 0.895±0.073, 0.861±0.058 and 0.754±0.111, respectively, which were 0.717±0.093, 0.697±0.081 and 0.645±0.087 for Cox proportional hazards model respectively ( z values: -3.00, -2.98, -1.09, P values: 0.011, 0.018, 0.310). The ResNet showed best predictive effect for recurrence events within 12 months after surgery. Conclusion:The ResNet model is expected to be used in clinical practice for postoperative follow-up of patients with TLE, helping for risk stratification and individualized management of postoperative patients.

After the health management, the incidence rate of anxiety was 51.8%, SAS score was (41.25±8.48), the incidence rate of depression was 30.4%, and the SDS score was (0.45±0.10) (P<0.05). Conclusions The health management of PCOS group practice can improve PCOS patients′negative emotions effectively.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of different imaging frequencies and matching strategies of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) on dose-volume parameters in target and organs at risk (OAR) during image-guided radiotherapy for prostate cancer.Methods:A total of 561 sets of CBCT images from 21 patients treated with radical prostate radiotherapy who were admitted to Peking University First Hospital from June 2022 to May 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients received volumetric intensity modulated arc therapy (VMAT) at a prescribed dose of 70 Gy divided into 25 times, 2.8 Gy per time. Clinical target volume (CTV) and OAR were delineated by the same oncologist on each CBCT image. The planned CT (pCT) was rigorously registered to CBCT after calibration of positioning errors according to different image guidance modes and frequencies, and CT values and structures were propagated to CBCT through deformable image registration (DIR). The daily dose was mapped to pCT according to the deformation vector field (DVF) for dose accumulation. The actual cumulative dose of daily online CBCT validation was compared with the weekly CBCT validation regimen (days 1, 2, 3, 6, 11, 16 and 21 online imaging). The dosimetric comparison was also made between bone-based matching and soft tissue-based matching (after automatic bone-based matching, manual prostate-based matching was performed and fine-tuning was made regarding the anterior wall of rectum). Wilcoxon signed rank-sum test was utilized to analyze dose-volume parameters between planned and cumulative doses that exhibited non-normal distribution, while paired t-test was employed for assessing shift values and average dose parameters that demonstrated normal distribution. Results:Compared with daily CBCT image guidance, the CTV_D 98% in weekly CBCT was significantly reduced [(69.08±1.58) vs. (65.24±3.64) Gy, P<0.001]. The CTV_D 98% of bone-based matching was (69.27±2.14) Gy, but the high-dose volume of the rectum were significantly increased: V 60 Gy was 3.18%±3.10%, V 65 Gy was 0.77%±1.23%. The target area coverage using soft tissue-based matching is sufficient, with a CTV_D 98% of (69.08±1.58) Gy. And the percentage volume of high-dose volume of the rectum was significantly reduced, with V 60 Gy being 2.02%±2.42% and V 65 Gy being 0.34%±0.68%. Conclusions:In prostate cancer patients undergoing moderately-fractionated radiotherapy, daily CBCT image guidance demonstrates superior target coverage compared to a weekly scheme. Soft tissue-based matching, which is automatic bone-based matching followed by manual soft tissue-based matching and fine-tuning according to the anterior rectal wall, offers better rectal protection while maintaining target coverage.
