Objective To establish a noninvasive diagnostic model for liver fibrosis in chronic hepatitis B(CHB)patients with normal alanine aminotransferase(ALT)and an age of≤30 years by selecting specific indicators from the commonly used noninvasive indicators such as clinical,biochemical,and imaging indicators,to avoid invasive liver biopsy in such patients to some extent,and to guide the timing of antiviral therapy.Methods A total of 251 CHB patients with normal ALT and an age of≤30 years who underwent liver biopsy in Shenzhen Third People's Hospital and The First Hospital of Changsha from January 2019 to January 2022 were enrolled,with 175 patients in the model group and 76 patients in the validation group,and commonly used clinical indicators were obtained based on clinical experience and related articles.The two-independent-samples t test or the two-independent-samples Mann-Whitney U rank sum test was used for comparison of continuous data between groups,and the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups.A Spearman rank correlation analysis was used to investigate the correlation between each indicator and liver fibrosis and identify the indicators with correlation(P<0.01,r>0.200);a Logistic regression analysis was used to establish a noninvasive diagnostic model,and the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate its performance and perform validation of the model;this model was then compared with the widely used models of aspartate aminotransferase-to-platelet ratio index(APRI)and fibrosis-4(FIB-4).The Kappa consistency test was used to investigate the consistency of pathological results.Results A total of 17 commonly used clinical indicators were obtained,among which 9 indicators(ALT,aspartate aminotransferase[AST],gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase[GGT],ferritin[FERR],platelet count[PLT],procollagen type Ⅲ amino-terminal peptide[PⅢP],collagen Ⅳ[CⅣ],HBV DNA,and spleen thickness)were correlated with liver fibrosis(P<0.01,r>0.232).Based on the above indicators,the predictive model was established as P=1/(1+e-γ),γ=-1.902+0.106×AST-0.011×PLT-0.265×HBV DNA+0.059×PⅢP,in which P was the probability for predicting≥S2 liver fibrosis and γ was the predictive index.The comparison between each indicator and the model showed that the model had the largest area under the ROC curve of 0.852,with a sensitivity of 92.7%and a specificity of 76.9%.The model was validated in 76 patients and showed an accuracy of 77.600%.The model was compared with APRI and FIB-4,and the results showed that the model has good accuracy.Conclusion Compared with the models of APRI and FIB-4 commonly used in the world,this model can more accurately judge the degree of liver fibrosis in such patients,thereby replacing liver biopsy to some extent and guiding the timing of antiviral therapy.

Objective To evaluate the quality of life after Altemeier and Delorme procedures for rectal prolapse patients. Methods A retrospective cohort study was performed. Clinical data of patients with full?thickness rectal prolapse undergoing surgical treatment in the Sixth Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat?sen University from February 2013 to January 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients who had no preoperative imaging data, who suffered from internal rectal intussusception, or who did not undergo Altemeier and Delorme operations were excluded. Sixty?seven patients were enrolled, including 32 males with median age of 20.5 (13, 34) years and 35 females with median age of 65.0 (50, 77) years. According to different procedures, patients were divided into the Altemeier group (48 cases) and the Delorme group (19 cases), who received standard Altemeier and Delorme operations respectively. The maximal prolapse length of preoperative squat position, the Longo constipation score, Wexner incontinence score, EQ?5D?5L score, postoperative complications and recurrence rate were analyzed and compared between two groups. Results The maximal prolapse length of preoperative squat position in Altemeier group and Delorme group was (7.3±3.3) cm and (4.9±2.1) cm respectively with significant difference (t=2.907, P=0.005). The operations in both groups were successfully completed. The operation time and postoperative hospital stay of Altemeier group were longer than those of Delorme group [(112.3 ± 47.0) minutes vs. (80.7±35.4) minutes, t=2.637, P=0.010; (11.3±5.0) days vs. (8.6±3.0) days, t=2.177, P=0.033]. The median follow?up period was 26 (13, 45) months. In the last follow?up, compared to pre?operation, the Longo constipation score [9.0 (6.0, 14.0) vs 4.0 (1.0, 6.5), Z=-4.989, P<0.001], Wexner incontinence score [0 (0, 5.5) vs. 0 (0, 2.0), Z=-3.325, P<0.001] and EQ?5D?5L score [45.0 (40.0, 57.5) vs. 80.0 (70.0, 87.5), Z=-5.587, P<0.001] were all improved obviously in the Altemeier group, meanwhile Longo constipation score [6.0 (5.0, 14.0) vs. 3.0 (1.0, 7.0), Z=–2.186, P=0.029], Wexner incontinence score [0 (0, 12.0) vs. 0 (0, 4.0), Z=-2.325, P=0.020] and EQ?5D?5L score [50.0 (35.0, 60.0) vs. 75.0 (65.0, 90.0), Z=-3.360, P=0.001] in the Delorme group were all improved obviously as well. The postoperative morbidity of complication between the two groups was not significantly different [10/48 (20.8%) vs. 4/19 (21.1%), χ2=0.049, P=0.826]. Sixteen patients (28.0%) relapsed after operation, including 10 patients in the Altemeier group and 6 patients in the Delorme group, without statistically significant difference (P=0.134). Conclusions Both the Altemeier and Delorme procedures are effective treatments for rectal prolapse, which can improve the postoperative quality of life. Delorme procedure has the advantages of shorter operation time and faster postoperative recovery in patients with mild prolapse.

Objective: To study the dosimetric characteristics and plan quality of PTV-based intensity modulated proton radiotherapy (IMPT) and volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) plans for prostate cancer, so as to provide a reference for clinical application. Methods: A total of 10 prostate cancer cases were included in this retrospective study. IMPT and RapidArc plans were designed by RayStation and Eclipse TPS based on PTV, respectively. For each case, IMPT plans were generated using multiple field optimization (MFO) technique with two parallel-opposed lateral fields, whereas RapidArc plans were generated using double-arc technique (two full arcs). Final dose calculation of IMPT was conducted by pencil beam(PB) and Monte Carlo (MC) algorithm, respectively, with adopted data model from the pencil beam scanning (PBS) proton therapy system of IBA Protues Plus(IBA Group, Belgium); The data model originated from the linear accelerator of Varian Clinac iX (Varian Medical Systems, America) was used for RapidArc plans. Dosimetric parameters of DVH and dose distribution were used to compare the dose differences in targets and organs at risk (OARs) between these two treatment techniques. Results: For targets, HIs of PB-IMPT and MC-IMPT were slightly better than that of RapidArc , but CI of IMPT was slightly lower than that of RapidArc; D_1% of PB-IMPT was significantly better than those of MC-IMPT and RapidArc (Z=-2.805, -2.803, P<0.05). PB-IMPT and MC-IMPT achieved better protection than RapidArc on rectum V₃₀(Z=-2.191, -1.988, P<0.05)and D_mean(Z=-2.599, -2.497, P<0.05), bladder V₃₀(Z=-2.701, -2.701, P<0.05), V₄₀(Z=-2.395, -2.395, P<0.05)and D_mean(Z=-2.701, -2.701, P<0.05). There was no significant difference between PB-IMPT and MC-IMPT plans for prostate cancer, except for the D_1% [(73.86±67.34) Gy vs.(75.45±2.01) Gy] (RBE) and HI [(0.040±0.010) vs. (0.058±0.020)] of the target. Conclusions Both techniques can meet the clinical requirements, but IMPT showed significant dosimetric advantages compared with RapidArch by reducing the dose to OARs and improving the plan quality.

ObjectiveTo explore the establishment of performance assessment indicators for the classification and grading of public health staff in district-level Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDCs), and to provide a basis for such evaluations. MethodsThrough literature review and group interviews, performance evaluation indicators were developed based on competency evaluation. Experts were invited to evaluate the weight of performance evaluation indicators for public health staff from different categories, with the average value used to represent the weight of each indicator. ResultsTwenty-nine experts from universities in Shanghai, municipal CDCs, and district CDCs participated, yielding an expert authority coefficient of 0.86. The performance evaluation indicators for department managers were categorized into three levels, with 4 indicators at the primary level, 16 indicators at the secondary level, and 42 indicators at the tertiary level, while those for general staff included 4 primary indicators, 15 secondary indicators, and 36 tertiary indicators. Significant differences were observed in the weight coefficients of the primary indicators (internal operations, professional work, and learning and growth) between department managers and general staff. The top three secondary indicators for department managers were department management, monitoring and prevention, and level of expertise. For mid-level and senior staff, the top three secondary indicators were monitoring and prevention, level of expertise, and research work. The top three secondary indicators for junior staff were monitoring and prevention, professional expertise, and professional attitude. No significant statistical differences were found among tertiary indicators. ConclusionThe developed performance evaluation indicators are reliable. Staff at different levels and classifications should be evaluated using different performance evaluation standards to accurately reflect individual performance and contributions.
