OBJECTIVE To establish a multi-index quantitative detection method, and to evaluate the quality difference of Gleditsia sinensis from different producing areas. METHODS The contents of protocatechuic acid, vanillic acid, isoscopoletin, scoparone, isovitexin, fustin, taxifolin, fisetin, quercetin, kaempferol, echinocystic acid, betulinic acid, β -sitosterol and stigmasterol were detected by high performance liquid chromatography-quantitative analysis of multi-components by single marker (HPLC-QAMS). The chromatographic column was Kromasil C18, the mobile phase was 0.2% phosphoric acid-acetonitrile solution (gradient elution), the detection wavelengths were 254, 360, 210 nm for different index components, the column temperature was 30 ℃ , the flow rate was 1.0 mL/min, and the sample injection volume was 10 μL. The contents of extract and total ash were detected according to the method of Chinese Pharmacopoeia. The quality differences of 30 batches of G. sinensis (No. S1-S30) from different producing areas were evaluated by chemometrics, weighted technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS) analysis and Logistic regression model. RESULTS The linear ranges of 14 components were 1.55-77.50, 0.71- 35.50, 0.28-14.00, 0.96-48.00, 1.77-88.50, 0.09-4.50, 4.65-232.50, 1.49-74.50, 0.37-18.50, 1.18-59.00, 7.35-367.50, 3.58- 179.00, 0.49-24.50 and 0.21-10.50 μg/mL, respectively (all r>0.999). The RSDs of precision, stability (24 h) and repeatability were less than 2.00%; the average recoveries were 96.99%-100.13% (all RSDs<2.00%), and the relative correction factor had good repeatability. The contents of extract and total ash were Δ 基金项目 湖北省中医药科研立项青年人才项目 (No. 4.2%-12.5% and 0.5%-2.3%, respectively. There was no ZY2019Q014) significant difference in the content of 14 components measured by QAMS method and external standard method (P>0.05). The results of chemometrics showed that 30 batches of samples were clustered into 3 categories: S1 to S11 form one category, S12 to S20 form another category, and S21 to S30 constitute the third category. Echinocystic acid, betulinic acid, taxifolin, kaempferol, isovitexin, scoparone and protocatechuic acid may be the differential components affecting the quality of G. sinensis from different producing areas. The analysis results of the weighted TOPSIS method revealed that relative closeness (Jb) for 30 batches of G. sinensis ranged from 0.144 5 to 0.721 8, with S27 achieving the highest value (Jb) of 0.721 8. The analysis results of the Logistic regression model showed that S21-S30 batches of samples were of superior grade, S1-S11 were of intermediate grade, and S12-S20 were of inferior grade. CONCLUSIONS The established HPLC-QAMS method is simple and accurate. The comprehensive evaluation method is objective and comprehensive, and can be used to evaluate the quality difference of G. sinensis from different producing areas.

Objective To analyze dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) radiomic features using machine learning algorithms, and to develop and validate a predictive model for HER-2 status in breast cancer. Methods The DCE-MRI images of 272 treatment-naive female patients with breast cancer between 2020 and 2022 were included in this study. Regions of interest (ROIs) were manually segmented using 3d-Slicer software, and radiomic features were extracted. All patients were randomly divided into training sets or validation sets at a ratio of 4∶1. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) algorithm was used for feature screening on the training set, followed by the development of predictive models using six machine learning algorithms. Internal cross-validation was performed to compare the performance differences between the models. The best-performing model was selected, trained on the training set, and evaluated on the validation set. Evaluation metrics included area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, precision, and recall rate. Results The clinical data of patients in the training set and validation set showed no significant differences. Five features were identified by the LASSO algorithm. With these features, six machine learning models were developed on the training set, and their predictive performance was internally cross-validated using the bagging method. XGBoost model had the highest mean AUC (0.696), followed by RF model (0.690); XGBoost model had the highest mean precision (0.756), followed by LR and RF models. Therefore, XGBoost was the optimal model. An HER-2 predictive model was built using the XGBoost algorithm on the training set and applied to the validation set. The AUC, precision, sensitivity, and specificity of the predictive model on the validation set were calculated, and ROC curves, precision-recall curves, calibration curves, and decision-making curves were plotted. Conclusion This study constructed and evaluated different DCE-MRI radiomics-based machine learning models for predicting HER-2 status in breast cancer. Among them, XGBoost algorithm performed the best and has the potential to become a new non-invasive method for preoperative prediction of HER-2 status, providing reliable evidence for personalized clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To elucidate the prediction ability of monocyte monolayer assay(MMA)used in hemolytic dis-ease of fetus and newborn(HDFN)caused by IgG anti-M.Methods Plasma from eight pregnant women containing IgG an-ti-M were collected,and were divided into two groups(4 cases with HDFN,with severe clinical symptoms such as fetal hy-drops,and 4 cases without HDFN)according to the clinical outcomes.M antigen positive cells were sensitized with dithioth-reitol(DTT)treated plasma from eight pregnant women respectively.MMA was performed by coincubation with monocytes and sensitized M cells,along with negative and positive control set up.T-test was conducted to compare the difference in phagocytic efficiency between two groups.Results The phagocytic efficiency in group with HDFN were 15.37%,13.05%,9.17%and 24.50%respectively,with the mean value of 15.52%,while the group without HDFN were 8.74%,11.07%,5.12%and 6.23%respectively,with the mean value of 7.79%.There was no significant difference in phagocytic efficiency between two groups(P>0.05).The mean values of both groups were not significantly different from the negative control(P>0.05),but both were significantly lower than positive control(P<0.05).Conclusion The low phagocytic efficiency couldn't convince that the MMA is an effective predictor for the HDFN caused by IgG anti-M,indicating that another mech-anism might be responsible for it rather than monocyte phagocytosis.The assessment of the peak systolic velocity in middle cerebral artery of the fetal should be considered in the management for pregnant women who produce IgG anti-M to estimate the situation of fetal anemia.

OBJECTIVE To comprehensively evaluate the quality of Yifei qinghua ointment by multi-component quantitative analysis combined with chemometrics and entropy weight-technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) method. METHODS The contents of lobetyolin, syringin, calycosin 7-O-β-D-glucopyranoside, ononin, astraisoflavan-7-O-β-D- glucoside, isomucronulatol 7-O-glucoside, astragaloside Ⅳ , deapi-platycoside E, platycoside E, platycodin D3, feretoside, asperulosidic acid, asperuloside, methylophiopogonanone A and methylophiopogonanone B in 14 batches of Yifei qinghua ointment (S1-S14) were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography method. Then, the quality of 14 batches of Yifei qinghua ointment was analyzed by chemometrics (principal component analysis and orthogonal partial least-squares discriminant analysis) and entropy weight TOPSIS method. RESULTS The results of chemometrics showed that 14 batches of Yifei qinghua ointment could be clustered into three categories, S1-S6 as the first category, S7-S10 as the second category, and S11-S14 as the third category. The values of variable importance for projection of calycosin 7-O-β-D-glucopyranoside, ononin, feretoside, astragaloside Ⅳ, astraisoflavan-7-O-β-D-glucoside, lobetyolin, methylophiopogonanone A and platycoside E were higher than 1. The results of the entropy weight TOPSIS method showed that the Euclidean closeness of the optimal solution of 14 batches of Yifei qinghua ointment were between 0.152 9 and 0.736 6, and that of sample S14 was the highest (0.736 6). CONCLUSIONS Among 14 batches of Yifei qinghua ointment, sample S14 has the best quality, and 8 components such as calycosin 7-O-β-D-glucopyranoside and ononin may be differential markers affecting the quality of Yifei qinghua ointment.

Objective:To design an electronic nose that can detect and identify urinary volatile organic compounds (VOCs) as marker gases for bladder cancer.Methods:Isopropyl alcohol, ethylbenzene, acetic acid, and ammonia were selected as target gases, and 8 metal oxide gas sensors were used to construct sensor arrays for testing and collecting experimental data, and different characteristics were normalized. Recursive feature elimination (RFE) was used to select the best feature subset, and principal component analysis (PCA) and linear discriminant analysis (LDA) were further introduced to reduce the data dimension and facilitate visual analysis. In addition, three machine learning algorithms, including support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), and K-nearest neighbor (KNN), were combined to train and verify the model.Results:When the feature number was 12, the accuracy of the model classification had the best performance. The feature subset consisted of 5 differences, 5 sensitivities, and 2 integrals, and the data was reduced to 12 dimensions. Only PCA couldn’t distinguish the four gases. The LDA classification performance was significantly better than that of PCA, except that isopropyl alcohol and acetic acid had a small overlap area. LDA could distinguish ethylbenzene and ammonia from isopropyl alcohol and acetic acid; the sample points were gathered, which means the clustering performance was also better. The prediction accuracy of SVM, RF, and KNN was 0.85, 0.56, and 0.79, respectively. After model verification, the classification accuracy of PCA+SVM, LDA+RF, and LDA+KNN was 0.97, 0.94, and 0.97, respectively.Conclusions:An electronic nose was designed to detect and identify urinary VOCs marker gases for bladder cancer.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of proper management of inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery (IPDA) in laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD).Methods:This is a retrospective case series study. The clinical and pathological data of 70 patients who received LPD due to pancreatic head tumors, periampullary tumors, or distal common bile duct tumors in the Pancreatic Center of the Second Clinical College of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine from January to December 2022 were retrospectively collected. There were 47 males(67.1%) and 23 females(32.9%),aged (59.9±12.8)years(range:13 to 87 years).The procedure of IPDA exposure was as follows:a middle approach was utilized to expose the right half of superior mesenteric artery(SMA) and its right branches between the SMA and superior mesenteric vein(SMV) in superior colonic region. In the subcolonic region,SMA trunk exposure via dissection along the jejunal artery from feet to head and identification the association between IPDA and jejunal artery were prior to IPDA root ligation and dissection. The safety and efficacy of intraoperative IPDA handling were assessed based on surgical videos. Follow-up was carried out in outpatient clinic or by telephone, and outpatient follow-up was conducted once every 1 to 3 months after surgery.Results:The percentage of total LPD was 98.6%(69/70),with all patients achieving R0 resection. Nine cases(12.9%) were involved in combined vascular resection and reconstruction,with 1 case (1.4%) requiring additional upper abdominal incision for vascular and gastrointestinal reconstruction,while the remaining eight cases (11.4%) were completed laparoscopically. The operative time was (432.7±115.4)minutes(range:282 to 727 minutes), and the blood loss was (140.0±125.7)ml(range:20 to 800 ml). Only two patients(2.9%) received fresh frozen plasma transfusion,with an average volume of 650 ml. Reliable ligation and safe handling of the IPDA were achieved in 91.4%(64/70) of cases, with 8.6%(6/70) suffering from IPDA injury-related bleeding. No one was converted to opened surgery. Pathologically,the mean tumor size was (3.3±1.6)cm (range:1 to 7 cm),and the mean number of harvested lymph nodes was 17.0±7.3(range:0 to 46). Lymph node metastasis was observed in 13 cases (18.6%). Five cases (13.2%) developed grade B pancreatic fistula,while no grade C pancreatic fistula occurred. Other complications included bile leakage in one case(1.4%),delayed gastric emptying in two cases(2.9%), lymphatic leakage in 2 cases(2.9%),intra-abdominal infection in 9 cases(12.9%),and fat liquefaction of surgical incision in 1 case(1.4%). Two cases(2.9%) experienced postoperative intra-abdominal bleeding,one due to mesangial bleeding of lesser curvature of the stomach and the other due to oozing from the hepatic arterial sheath. These bleeding events were not concerned with IPDA. The average length of postoperative hospital stay was (15.2±4.6)days(range:9 to 28 days).Conclusion:Proper intraoperative management of IPDA in LPD might reduce IPDA-related bleeding during and after surgery and improve the safety of LPD.
