Objective To explore the effect of seminar based on case-based learning(CBL)in practical teaching of physical therapy. Methods From July,2021 to June,2022,42 rehabilitation therapy students for internships in Rehabilitation Medicine Center,the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were non-directionally recruited,and random-ly divided into control group(n = 21)and experimental group(n = 21).The experimental group received instruc-tion using seminar and CBL,while the control group received CBL alone,for three months.The scores of theoret-ical and practical assessments were observed,and the satisfaction was investigated using a self-designed question-naire. Results The scores of both theoretical and practical assessments were better in the experimental group than in the control group(t>2.421,P<0.05);while the satisfaction was better in terms of motivating learning enthusiasm,enhanc-ing learning abilities,cultivating clinical reasoning skills,improving teacher-student communication,promoting teamwork,enhancing overall competence,and satisfying to the teaching in the experimental group than in the control group(χ2>6.667,P<0.05). Conclusion The combination of seminar with CBL would enhance the effect of practical teaching in physical therapy.

MicroRNA(miRNA)is a kind of small non-coding single stranded RNA that can participate in multiple biological processes.It also plays an important role in regulating the immune function of the body.Immune thrombocytopenia(ITP)is an autoim-mune disease,whose cause and deterioration are closely related to miRNA regulates immune function of CD4+T cells subsets.In ITP patients,different expression of miRNA can affect the immune function of CD4+T cells subsets,which causes not only unbalanced ex-pression of Th1/Th2,Th17/Treg and excessive differentiation of TFH,but also abnormal cytokine secretion furthermore.This paper summarizes the unbalanced mechanism of miRNA regulating immune function of CD4+T cells subsets in ITP,so as to provide inspira-tion for exploring the immunology and immunotherapy of ITP.

Objective Because of the poor prognosis of colon adenocarcinoma(COAD),it is necessary to screen prognosis-related genes in COAD patients and establish a new prognostic risk assessment model.Methods COAD-related data from the cancer genome atlas(TCGA)and gene expression omnibus(GEO)were used as training and validation sets,respectively.Weighted gene co-expression network analysis(WGCNA),a Cox regression model and least absolute selection and shrinkage operator(LASSO)regression analysis were used to screen prognosis-related genes of COAD and establish a prognostic model.A receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was combined with a survival curve to verify the model accuracy,and a nomogram was constructed.Patients were divided into two groups by the median risk score.The immune cell proportion score(IPS)was used to evaluate the immunotherapy response of the two groups.Results A total of 15 feature genes were screened.The area under the ROC curve in the predictive model of COAD patients was＞0.6,and the survival rate of the high-risk group was significantly lower than that of the low-risk group(P＜0.05),suggesting a good distinguishing ability for high-and low-risk COAD patients.Patients in the low-risk group had a higher IPS(P=0.026),indicating a better response to immunotherapy.Conclusions The model developed for COAD in this study has a good ability to predict the survival of patients at high and low risk of COAD.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinicopathological features， diagnosis and treatment methods， and prognosis of gallbladder sarcomatoid carcinoma （GBSC）. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 16 patients with GBSC who were admitted to The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2015 to April 2023， including general information， clinical manifestations， imaging features， pathological features， and treatment modality， and follow-up was performed for all patients. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to perform the survival analysis and plot the survival curve， and the Log-rank test was used for comparison between groups. ResultsAmong the 16 patients， there were 6 male patients and 10 female patients， with a mean age of 62.9±8.4 years. The main clinical manifestations were right upper abdominal pain in 13 patients （81.3%）， nausea in 5 patients （31.3%）， abdominal distension in 4 patients （25.0%）， poor appetite in 3 patients （18.8%）， weakness in 2 patients （12.5%）， fever in 2 patients （12.5%）， and jaundice in 1 patient （6.3%）， and 3 patients were asymptomatic and were found to have this disease by physical examination. Of all patients， 81.3% （13/16） were in the advanced stage （stage Ⅲ/Ⅳ） at the time of initial diagnosis. Histopathological examination showed that some cancer cells were spindle-shaped under the microscope， with marked nuclear division and noticeable heteromorphism. Immunohistochemistry showed a positive expression rate of 100% （16/16） for Vimentin， AE1/AE3， and CK8/18， and Ki-67 proliferation index was highly expressed in 81.3% （13/16） of the patients （≥50%）， with a median of 70% （range 20%‍ ‍—‍ ‍90%）. All 16 patients underwent surgical treatment， with radical surgery in 11 patients and palliative surgery in 5 patients， among whom 9 received R0 resection， 2 received R1 resection， and 5 received R2 resection， and 7 patients received adjuvant therapy after surgery. Effective follow-up was achieved for all 16 patients， with a follow-up time of 0.5‍ ‍—‍ ‍26.0 months and a median follow-up time of 11.0 months. By the end of follow-up， 2 patients survived and 14 patients died due to tumor recurrence or metastasis， with a median survival time of 10.0 months， and the 1- and 2-year cumulative survival rates after surgery were 31.3% and 8.3%， respectively. The prognostic analysis showed that TNM stage （χ²=6.727， P=0.009）， surgical approach （χ²=7.508， P=0.006）， margin condition （χ²=7.934， P=0.005）， and adjuvant therapy （χ²=4.608， P=0.032） were associated with the prognosis of patients. ConclusionThe clinical manifestations of GBSC lack specificity， and a confirmed diagnosis relies on immunohistochemical analysis. Most patients are in the advanced disease at the time of initial diagnosis and tend to have a poor prognosis. There are currently no targeted therapies for this disease， and radical surgery with negative margins and adjuvant therapy can improve the survival rate of patients.

Risk perception in patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) can predict their adoption of health behaviors. A significant discrepancy between perceived risk and objective risk estimates can adversely affect individuals' risk response behaviors. This paper introduces the status quo of risk perception bias among CVD patients and analyzes the influencing factors from demographic factors, disease risk factors, individual psychological factors, socio-cultural factors, risk communication, and risk characteristics. It summarizes intervention strategies to reduce risk perception bias, aiming to enhance healthcare professionals' understanding of this issue in CVD patients and provide a reference for developing reasonable intervention measures in the future.

Objective:To standardize the quantitation of 18F-Florbetapir PET SUV ratio (SUVR) to the Centiloid (CL) scale, and analyze the positive rate of β-amyloid (Aβ) in Chinese Preclinical Alzheimer′s Disease (AD) Study (C-PAS). Methods:11C-Pittsburgh compound B(PIB) and 18F-Florbetapir images from public databases " Standard PIB" and " Florbetapir Calibration" were preprocessed by statistical parametric mapping (SPM) 12, and the transformative formulas from SUVR to CL were derived. Then a total of 942 subjects (357 males, 585 females; age (66.4±8.1) years) from C-PAS who received 18F-Florbetapir PET at the Department of Nuclear Medicine & PET Center, Huashan Hospital, Fudan University from October 2018 to August 2023 were retrospectively included. CL values were calculated and the Aβ positive rates (CL value≤12, Aβ negative; 12< CL value<30, Aβ subtle pathology; CL value≥30, Aβ positive) of AD, mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and cognitive unimpaired (CU) groups were explored. Data were analyzed by using Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test, Dunn′s test (Bonferroni correction ) and χ2 test. Results:The formula for the 18F-Florbetapir SUVR converted to CL was CL=179.64×SUVR_Florbetapir-186.95. In the C-PAS cohort, the SUVR, CL value, Aβ positive rate (including subtle pathology) of patients with clinically diagnosed AD were 1.29±0.22, 43.97±39.23, 71.80%(140/195), which were 1.04(1.02, 1.14), 1.16(-4.04, 17.14), 28.50%(61/214) for patients with MCI, and 1.04(1.01, 1.08), 0.54(-5.29, 7.69), 15.38%(82/533) for CU subjects, respectively. SUVR, CL value and the ratio of negative, subtle and positive Aβ pathology of the above three groups exhibited statistical differences ( H=148.30, H=148.30, χ2=262.12, all P<0.001). Besides, mixed MCI group exhibited higher CL values ((2.45(-1.54, 46.32) vs -1.58(-6.33, 7.20); H=8.21, P=0.016; z=2.81, P=0.015) and Aβ positive rate (including subtle pathology) (41.18%(14/34) vs 14.64%(6/41); χ2 values: 12.71 and 10.63, both P<0.01), compared to non-amnestic MCI group. The CL values and Aβ positive rates were also increased with age in CU group. Conclusion:This study validates the feasibility of the CL formula with 18F-Florbetapir images and reveals Aβ deposition in C-PAS cohort, which can lay the foundation for multi-center Aβ PET studies in China.

Objective:To investigate the application of (4R)-4-(3-[ 18F]fluoranyl-5-fluorophenyl)-1-((3-methylpyridin-4-yl)methyl)pyrrolidin-2-one( 18F-SynVesT-1), a synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2A (SV2A) radioactive tracer, in patients with Alzheimer′s disease (AD). Methods:A total of 20 AD patients (2 males, 18 females, age (66.4±8.1) years) with positive β-amyloid (Aβ) deposition and 20 normal controls (NC; 9 males, 11 females, age (62.6±8.6) years ) without Aβ deposition were retrospectively recruited from Huashan Hospital, Fudan University between December 2021 and December 2022. All of them underwent 18F-SynVesT-1 PET/MR and 18F-Florbetapir (AV45) PET/CT scans. Preprocessing of brain 18F-SynVesT-1 PET images was carried out using statistical parametric mapping (SPM). The differences of the uptke of 18F-SynVesT-1 (synaptic density) between two groups based on ROI were compared by using either the independent-sample t test or Mann-Whitney U test. Spearman rank correlation analysis was performed to assess the relationship between synaptic density and cognitive performance. For voxelwise analysis, a general linear model was constructed to analyze differences in synaptic density between the two groups using the independent-sample t test. Furthermore, a multiple linear regression model was developed to explore the relationship between synaptic density and cognitive performance. Results:Compared to the NC group, the AD group exhibited significant widespread reduction in synaptic density across the cortical regions ( P<0.05, false discovery rate (FDR)-corrected), particularly in the medial temporal lobe (0.84±0.09 vs 1.04±0.09; t=-6.95, P<0.001), lateral temporal lobe (1.15±0.13 vs 1.31±0.08; t=-4.56, P<0.001), and lateral parietal lobe (1.24(1.04, 1.26) vs 1.32(1.23, 1.39); z=-3.25, P=0.001). Moreover, synaptic density in extensive cortical regions showed a positive correlation with mini-mental state examination (MMSE) and Montreal cognitive assessment-basic (MoCA-B) scores ( P<0.05, FDR-corrected). Notably, significant associations were observed between MMSE and MoCA-B scores and synaptic density in the lateral temporal lobe ( rs values: 0.71, 0.74, both P<0.001) and medial temporal lobe ( rs values: 0.71, 0.74, both P<0.001). Conclusions:18F-SynVesT-1 PET imaging is a valuable tool for evaluating synaptic density, specifically in the context of AD. The observed widespread reduction in synaptic density across cortical regions of patients with AD are closely related to cognitive decline.

Herb-induced liver injury (HILI) is a type of drug-induced liver injury (DILI) caused by Chinese herb medicines, natural medicines or their related preparations. With the increasing number of reports on HILI events in recent years, traditional Chinese medicine is facing great challenges and controversies. Compared to other types of DILI, HILI is more complicated in terms of diagnosis and risk factors.This article reviews the current research status on the herb-induced liver injury.

Objective:To explore the β-amyloid (Aβ) deposition pattern of subjects with the preclinical Alzheimer′s disease (AD), community-derived amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) and normal cognition (NC) from communities of Shanghai.Methods:According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 273 subjects (104 males, 169 females; age (64.2±7.6) years) were recruited from Shanghai community and memory clinics from December 2018 to July 2020. All subjects underwent MRI, 18F-AV45 PET imaging and neuropsychological scale tests and were grouped into AD, aMCI and NC groups based on clinical diagnosis. Differences in demographic information, the neuropsychological scale tests′ scores and positive rate of Aβ deposition among each group were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance or χ2 test. Aβ deposition patterns of AD and MCI groups were analyzed at voxel level, and the differences of Aβ deposition among different groups were compared. Results:Among 273 patients, the positive rates of Aβ deposition in AD, aMCI and NC groups were 84.4%(38/45), 36.4%(20/55) and 23.1%(40/173), respectively ( χ2=58.37, P<0.001). Among AD, aMCI, NC and NC (Aβ-) groups ( n=132), the education years of AD group was the lowest ((9.7±4.6) years; F=8.86, P<0.001). In addition, there were significant differences in the scores of several neuropsychological scale tests among AD, aMCI, NC groups and NC (Aβ-) group ( F values: 27.68-235.50, all P<0.001). Compared with subjects in NC(Aβ-) group, the Aβ depositions in the aMCI and AD groups were widely distributed in the whole cerebral cortex; and AD group had higher Aβ deposition in bilateral frontal, parietal, temporal, occipital lobe, cingulate gyrus and precuneus than aMCI group. Conclusions:The positive rate of Aβ deposition in the preclinical AD population from the Shanghai community is obtained. There are significant different Aβ deposition patterns in subjects at different stages of AD.
