Objective:To examine the impact of varied surgical treatment strategies on the prognosis of patients with initial resectable gastric cancer liver metastases (IR-GCLM).Methods:This is a retrospective cohort study. Employing a retrospective cohort design, the study selected clinicopathological data from the national multi-center retrospective cohort study database, focusing on 282 patients with IR-GCLM who underwent surgical intervention between January 2010 and December 2019. There were 231 males and 51 males, aging ( M(IQR)) 61 (14) years (range: 27 to 80 years). These patients were stratified into radical and palliative treatment groups based on treatment decisions. Survival curves were generated using the Kaplan-Meier method and distinctions in survival rates were assessed using the Log-rank test. The Cox risk regression model evaluated HR for various factors, controlling for confounders through multivariate analysis to comprehensively evaluate the influence of surgery on the prognosis of IR-GCLM patients. A restricted cubic spline Cox proportional hazard model assessed and delineated intricate associations between measured variables and prognosis. At the same time, the X-tile served as an auxiliary tool to identify critical thresholds in the survival analysis for IR-GCLM patients. Subgroup analysis was then conducted to identify potential beneficiary populations in different surgical treatments. Results:(1) The radical group comprised 118 patients, all undergoing R0 resection or local physical therapy of primary and metastatic lesions. The palliative group comprised 164 patients, with 52 cases undergoing palliative resections for gastric primary tumors and liver metastases, 56 cases undergoing radical resections for gastric primary tumors only, 45 cases undergoing palliative resections for gastric primary tumors, and 11 cases receiving palliative treatments for liver metastases. A statistically significant distinction was observed between the groups regarding the site and the number of liver metastases (both P<0.05). (2) The median overall survival (OS) of the 282 patients was 22.7 months (95% CI: 17.8 to 27.6 months), with 1-year and 3-year OS rates were 65.4% and 35.6%, respectively. The 1-year OS rates for patients in the radical surgical group and palliative surgical group were 68.3% and 63.1%, while the corresponding 3-year OS rates were 42.2% and 29.9%, respectively. A comparison of OS between the two groups showed no statistically significant difference ( P=0.254). Further analysis indicated that patients undergoing palliative gastric cancer resection alone had a significantly worse prognosis compared to other surgical options ( HR=1.98, 95% CI: 1.21 to 3.24, P=0.006). (3) The size of the primary gastric tumor significantly influenced the patients′ prognosis ( HR=2.01, 95% CI: 1.45 to 2.79, P<0.01), with HR showing a progressively increasing trend as tumor size increased. (4) Subgroup analysis indicates that radical treatment may be more effective compared to palliative treatment in the following specific cases: well/moderately differentiated tumors ( HR=2.84, 95% CI 1.49 to 5.41, P=0.001), and patients with liver metastases located in the left lobe of the liver ( HR=2.06, 95% CI 1.19 to 3.57, P=0.010). Conclusions:In patients with IR-GCLM, radical surgery did not produce a significant improvement in the overall prognosis compared to palliative surgery. However, within specific patient subgroups (well/moderately differentiated tumors, and patients with liver metastases located in the left lobe of the liver), radical treatment can significantly improve prognosis compared to palliative approaches.

Objective:To investigate the prognosis of patients with initially resectable gastric cancer liver metastasis (GCLM) who were treated by different modalities, and analyze the influencing factors for prognosis of patients.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 327 patients with initially resectable GCLM who were included in the database of a nationwide multicenter retrospective cohort study on GCLM based on real-world data from January 2010 to December 2019 were collected. There were 267 males and 60 females, aged 61(54,68)years. According to the specific situations of patients, treatment modalities included radical surgery combined with systemic treatment, palliative surgery combined with systemic treatment, and systemic treatment alone. Observation indicators: (1) clinical characteristics of patients who were treated by different modalities; (2) prognostic outcomes of patients who were treated by different modalities; (3) analysis of influencing factors for prognosis of patients with initially resectable GCLM; (4) screening of potential beneficiaries in patients who were treated by radical surgery plus systemic treatment and patients who were treated by palliative surgery plus systemic treatment. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was conducted using the rank sum test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rate and draw survival curve, and Log-Rank test was used for survival analysis. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted using the COX proportional hazard regression model. The propensity score matching was employed by the 1:1 nearest neighbor matching method with a caliper value of 0.1. The forest plots were utilized to evaluate potential benefits of diverse surgical combined with systemic treatments within the population. Results:(1) Clinical characteristics of patients who were treated by different modalities. Of 327 patients, there were 118 cases undergoing radical surgery plus systemic treatment, 164 cases undergoing palliative surgery plus systemic treatment, and 45 cases undergoing systemic treatment alone. There were significant differences in smoking, drinking, site of primary gastric tumor, diameter of primary gastric tumor, site of liver metastasis, and metastatic interval among the three groups of patients ( P<0.05). (2) Prognostic outcomes of patients who were treated by different modalities. The median overall survival time of the 327 pati-ents was 19.9 months (95% confidence interval as 14.9-24.9 months), with 1-, 3-year overall survival rate of 61.3%, 32.7%, respectively. The 1-year overall survival rates of patients undergoing radical surgery plus systemic treatment, palliative surgery plus systemic treatment and systemic treatment alone were 68.3%, 63.1%, 30.6%, and the 3-year overall survival rates were 41.1%, 29.9%, 11.9%, showing a significant difference in overall survival rate among the three groups of patients ( χ2=19.46, P<0.05). Results of further analysis showed that there was a significant difference in overall survival rate between patients undergoing radical surgery plus systemic treatment and patients undergoing systemic treatment alone ( hazard ratio=0.40, 95% confidence interval as 0.26-0.61, P<0.05), between patients undergoing palliative surgery plus systemic treatment and patients under-going systemic treatment alone ( hazard ratio=0.47, 95% confidence interval as 0.32-0.71, P<0.05). (3) Analysis of influencing factors for prognosis of patients with initially resectable GCLM. Results of multivariate analysis showed that the larger primary gastric tumor, poorly differentiated tumor, larger liver metastasis, multiple hepatic metastases were independent risk factors for prognosis of patients with initially resectable GCLM ( hazard ratio=1.20, 1.70, 1.20, 2.06, 95% confidence interval as 1.14-1.27, 1.25-2.31, 1.04-1.42, 1.45-2.92, P<0.05) and immunotherapy or targeted therapy, the treatment modality of radical or palliative surgery plus systemic therapy were independent protective factors for prognosis of patients with initially resectable GCLM ( hazard ratio=0.60, 0.39, 0.46, 95% confidence interval as 0.42-0.87, 0.25-0.60, 0.30-0.70, P<0.05). (4) Screening of potentinal beneficiaries in patients who were treated by radical surgery plus systemic treatment and patients who were treated by palliative surgery plus systemic treatment. Results of forest plots analysis showed that for patients with high-moderate differentiated GCLM and patients with liver metastasis located in the left liver, the overall survival rate of patients undergoing radical surgery plus systemic treatment was better than patients undergoing palliative surgery plus systemic treatment ( hazard ratio=0.21, 0.42, 95% confidence interval as 0.09-0.48, 0.23-0.78, P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared to systemic therapy alone, both radical and palliative surgery plus systemic therapy can improve the pro-gnosis of patients with initially resectable GCLM. The larger primary gastric tumor, poorly differen-tiated tumor, larger liver metastasis, multiple hepatic metastases are independent risk factors for prognosis of patients with initial resectable GCLM and immunotherapy or targeted therapy, the treatment modality of radical or palliative surgery plus systemic therapy are independent protective factors for prognosis of patients with initially resectable GCLM.

The breakage pattern of unit particles during the production of oral solid dosage forms (OSD) is closely related to the quality of intermediate or final products. To accurately characterize the particles and study the evolution law of particle breakage, the Bonding model of the discrete element method (DEM) was used to investigate the breakage patterns of model parameters, particle shape and process conditions (loading mode and loading rate) on the dynamic breakage, force-time curve, breakage rate, maximum breakage size ratio and fracture strength of particles. The results showed that the particle breakage force was positively correlated with normal strength and bonded disk scale, negatively correlated with normal stiffness per unit area and tangential stiffness per unit area, and weakly correlated with tangential strength. The particle breakage rate was negatively correlated with the aspect ratio of the particles, and the maximum breakage size ratio was positively correlated with the aspect ratio of the particles; among the three loading modes, the breakage rate of compression breakage model was the largest, the breakage rate of shear breakage model was the second largest, and the breakage rate of wear breakage model was the smallest; the maximum breakage size ratio was positively correlated with the loading rate, the loading mode and the loading rate had no mutual influence on particle breakage rate, but had mutual influence on the maximum breakage size ratio. The research results will provide a theoretical basis for the shift of OSD from batch manufacturing to advanced manufacturing.

Objective The evaluation of lymph node properties before lung cancer surgery has a great impact with the choice of surgical methods.Although there are various examination methods,many methods have invasive or accuracy problems.In order to improve the accuracy of diagnosis,we mainly discuss the value of wide-body spectral CT in the differential diagnosis of mediastinal metastatic lymph nodes,non-metastatic lymph nodes in lung cancer patients and reactive hyperplastic lymph nodes.Methods The clinical and imaging data of 64 patients with lung cancer and 28 patients with pulmonary inflammatory lesions were retrospectively analyzed.All patients underwent plain scan and enhanced dual-phase spectral CT scan.The size,density,three-phase IC,NIC,and λHU of lymph nodes in metastatic,non-metastatic and inflammatory reactive hyperplasia groups were measured on 70 keV single-energy images and iodine-based images,respectively.The single-factor variance and Kruskal-Wallis H rank sum test were used to analyze and compare the differences.Results The short diameter of metastatic lymph nodes was larger than that of non-metastatic lymph nodes and reactive hyperplastic lymph nodes(P<0.001).The plain scan density of reactive hyperplastic lymph nodes was higher than that of metastatic lymph nodes(P<0.001),but there was no significant difference between non-metastatic lymph nodes(P=0.325).The CT values of reactive hyperplastic lymph nodes in arterial phase and venous phase were higher than those of metastatic and non-metastatic lymph nodes(P<0.05).Except for NIC in arterial phase,IC,NIC and λHU in plain scan,IC and λHU in arterial phase,IC,NIC and λHU in venous phase of reactive hyperplastic lymph nodes and metastatic lymph nodes were statistically significant(all P<0.05).There was no significant difference in IC,NIC and λHU between reactive hyperplastic lymph nodes and non-metastatic lymph nodes in plain scan,arterial phase and venous phase(all P>0.05).Conclusion The quantitative and spectral curve slope of iodine in mediastinal metastatic lymph nodes of lung cancer were basically lower than those in reactive hyperplastic lymph nodes.The quantitative parameters of spectral CT had certain diagnostic efficacy in differentiating metastatic lymph nodes and reactive hyperplastic lymph nodes,while the spectral parameters of non-metastatic lymph nodes and reactive hyperplastic lymph nodes were not statistically significant.

Objective To monitor the susceptibility of clinical isolates to antimicrobial agents in tertiary hospitals in major regions of China in 2022.Methods Clinical isolates from 58 hospitals in China were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using a unified protocol based on disc diffusion method or automated testing systems.Results were interpreted using the 2022 Clinical &Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)breakpoints.Results A total of 318 013 clinical isolates were collected from January 1,2022 to December 31,2022,of which 29.5%were gram-positive and 70.5%were gram-negative.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains in Staphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus epidermidis and other coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species(excluding Staphylococcus pseudintermedius and Staphylococcus schleiferi)was 28.3%,76.7%and 77.9%,respectively.Overall,94.0%of MRSA strains were susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and 90.8%of MRSE strains were susceptible to rifampicin.No vancomycin-resistant strains were found.Enterococcus faecalis showed significantly lower resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents tested than Enterococcus faecium.A few vancomycin-resistant strains were identified in both E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae was 94.2%in the isolates from children and 95.7%in the isolates from adults.The resistance rate to carbapenems was lower than 13.1%in most Enterobacterales species except for Klebsiella,21.7%-23.1%of which were resistant to carbapenems.Most Enterobacterales isolates were highly susceptible to tigecycline,colistin and polymyxin B,with resistance rates ranging from 0.1%to 13.3%.The prevalence of meropenem-resistant strains decreased from 23.5%in 2019 to 18.0%in 2022 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and decreased from 79.0%in 2019 to 72.5%in 2022 in Acinetobacter baumannii.Conclusions The resistance of clinical isolates to the commonly used antimicrobial agents is still increasing in tertiary hospitals.However,the prevalence of important carbapenem-resistant organisms such as carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa,and A.baumannii showed a downward trend in recent years.This finding suggests that the strategy of combining antimicrobial resistance surveillance with multidisciplinary concerted action works well in curbing the spread of resistant bacteria.

Objective:To construct a predictive model for intensive care unit (ICU) and in-hospital mortality risk in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and validate its performance.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 3 907 patients with TBI published until May 2018 in the eICU Collaborative Research Database v2.0 (eICU-CRD v2.0), including 2 397 males and 1 510 females, aged 18-92 years [63.0(43.0, 79.0)years]. According to whether the patients died in ICU or at hospital stay, they were divided into ICU survival group ( n=3 575) and ICU mortality group ( n=332), and hospital survival group ( n=3 413) and hospital mortality group ( n=494). The general data, admission diagnosis, laboratory tests, therapeutic interventions, and clinical outcomes were extracted as variables of interest. Univariate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were conducted on both the survival groups and the mortality groups to identify the independent risk factors that affect ICU and in-hospital mortality in TBI patients, based on which a Logistic regression prediction model was constructed and represented by Nomograms. The extracted dataset was randomly divided into training set ( n=2 735) and validation set ( n=1 172) with a ratio of 7∶3, and was applied for internal validation of the of the predictive model. Meanwhile, the data of TBI patients in the MIMIC-III v1. 4 database were extracted for external validation of the predictive model. The area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used for discriminability evaluation of the model, and the Hosmer-Lemeshow (H-L) goodness of fit test and calibration curve were used for calibration evaluation of the model. Results:The statistically significant variables identified in the univariate analysis were included in the multivariate logistic regression analysis of ICU mortality and in-hospital mortality risk. The results revealed that acute physiology and chronic health evaluation IV (APACHE IV) score ( OR=1.04, 95% CI 1.03, 1.04, P<0.01), Glasgow coma scale (GCS) ( OR=0.66, 95% CI 0.59, 0.73, P<0.01), cerebral hernia formation ( OR=6.91, 95% CI 3.13, 15.26, P<0.01), international normalized ratio (INR) ( OR=1.33, 95% CI 1.09, 1.62, P<0.01), use of hypertonic saline ( OR=0.45, 95% CI 0.21 0.94, P<0.05), and use of vasoactive agents ( OR=2.19, 95% CI 1.36, 3.52, P<0.01) were independent risk factors for ICU mortality in TBI patients. The age (with 10 years as a grade) ( OR=1.28, 95% CI 1.17, 1.40, P<0.01), APACHE IV score ( OR=1.03, 95% CI 1.02, 1.04, P<0.01), GCS ( OR=0.75, 95% CI 0.71, 0.80, P<0.01), cerebral hernia formation ( OR=6.44, 95% CI 2.99, 13.86, P<0.01), serum creatinine level ( OR=1.07, 95% CI 1.01, 1.15, P<0.05), INR ( OR=1.49, 95% CI 1.20, 1.85, P<0.01), use of hypertonic saline ( OR=0.41, 95% CI 0.21, 0.80, P<0.01), and use of vasoactive agents ( OR=2.27, 95% CI 1.46, 3.53, P<0.01) were independent risk factors of in-hospital mortality of TBI patients. Based on the forementioned independent risk factors for ICU mortality, the model equation was constructed: Logit P (ICU)=7.12+0.03×"APACHE IV score"-0.42×"GCS"+1.93×"cerebral hernia formation"+0.28×"INR"-0.81×"use of hypertonic saline"+0.79×"use of vasoactive agents". Based on the forementioned independent risk factors for in-hospital mortality, the model equation was constructed: Logit P (in-hospital)=2.75+0.25×"age"(with 10 years as a grade)+0.03×"APACHE IV score"-0.28×"GCS"+1.86×"cerebral hernia formation"+0.07×"serum creatinine level"+0.40×"INR"-0.90×"use of hypertonic saline"+0.82×"use of vasoactive agents". In the prediction model for ICU mortality, the AUC of the training set and validation set was 0.95 (95% CI 0.94, 0.97) and 0.91 (95% CI 0.87, 0.95). The result of H-L goodness of fit test of the training set was P=0.495 with the average absolute error in the calibration curve of 0.003, while the result of H-L goodness of fit test of the validation set was P=0.650 with the average absolute error in the calibration curve of 0.012. In the prediction model for in-hospital mortality, the AUC of the training set and validation set was 0.91 (95% CI 0.89, 0.93) and 0.91(95% CI 0.88, 0.94). The result of H-L goodness of fit test of the training set was P=0.670 with the average absolute error in the calibration curve of 0.006, while the result of H-L goodness of fit test of the validation set was P=0.080 with the average absolute error in the calibration curve of 0.021. In the external validation set of ICU mortality risk, the AUC of the prediction model was 0.88 (95% CI 0.86, 0.90), while the result of H-L goodness of fit test was P=0.205 with the average absolute error in the calibration curve of 0.031. In the external validation set of in-hospital mortality risk, the AUC of the prediction model was 0.88 (95% CI 0.85, 0.91), while the result of H-L goodness of fit test was P=0.239 with the average absolute error in the calibration curve of 0.036. The internal and external validation of the model indicated that both the prediction models for ICU and in-hospital mortality had good discriminability and calibration. Conclusion:The ICU mortality prediction model constructed by APACHE IV score, GCS, cerebral hernia formation, use of hypertonic saline, vasoactive agents use of and INR, and the in-hospital mortality prediction model constructed by age grading, APACHE IV score, GCS, cerebral hernia formation, serum creatinine level, hypertonic saline use of, use of vasoactive agents and INR can predict the mortality risk of TBI patients well.
