Objective To analyze the correlations of multimodal ultrasound parameters with Ki-67 and cytokeratin 5/6(CK5/6)in triple-negative breast cancer(TNBC).Methods A retrospec-tive analysis was conducted on 212 breast cancer patients in Jurong Hospital Affiliated to Jiangsu Uni-versity and Jiangsu Provincial People's Hospital from January 2017 to December 2023.The patients were divided into TNBC group(n=95)and non-TNBC group(n=117).Immunohistochemical stai-ning was used to detect the expression of Ki-67 and CK5/6 in both groups,and the correlations of ul-trasound parameters with Ki-67 and CK5/6 were analyzed.Results In the TNBC group,the positive rates of CK5/6 and Ki-67 were 69.47％(66/95)and 75.79％(72/95)respectively,while in the non-TNBC group,the positive rates were 23.93％(28/117)and 14.53％(17/117)respectively,with significant between-group differences(P＜0.05).In the TNBC group,patients with high and low level of CK5/6 showed significant differences in maximum lesion diameter,morphology,margin,aspect ratio,presence of calcifications,posterior acoustic pattern,lymph node metastasis,and distant metastasis(P＜0.05);similarly,patients with high and low level of CK5/6 demonstrated significant differences in distribution,enhancement pattern,and perfusion defects(P＜0.05);patients with high and low level of Ki-67 also exhibited significant differences in maximum lesion diameter,mor-phology,margin,aspect ratio,presence of calcifications,posterior acoustic pattern,lymph node me-tastasis,and distant metastasis(P＜0.05);additionally,patients with high and low level of Ki-67 showed significant differences in the enhanced range,distribution,and enhancement pattern(P＜0.05).Multivariate analysis revealed that clear margin,calcifications,and enhanced range were in-dependent influencing factors for CK5/6 positivity(P＜0.05),while enhancement pattern and en-hanced range were independent influencing factors for Ki-67 positivity(P＜0.05).Conclusion Ki-67 and CK5/6 have higher positive expression rates in TNBC patients,and multimodal ultrasound pa-rameters are correlated with Ki-67 and CK5/6.

Objective To investigate the predictive value of serum matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9)and soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1(sTREM-1)in postoperative urinary tract infec-tion(UTI)in patients with ureteral calculi.Methods Among the ureteral calculi patients admitted to the De-partment of Urology in a hospital from October 2021 to October 2022,68 patients with postoperative UTI(UTI group)and 68 patients without UTI(non-UTI group)were selected as the study objects.Serum MMP-9 and sTREM-1 levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Spearman method was used to analyze the correlation between serum MMP-9 and sTREM-1 levels and clinical data in UTI group,and the predictive value of serum MMP-9 and sTREM-1 levels in postoperative UTI in ureteral calculi patients was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic curve.The influencing factors of postoperative UTI in ureter-al calculi patients were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression.Results Compared with non-UTI group,serum MMP-9 and sTREM-1 levels in UTI group were significantly increased,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).Correlation analysis showed that serum MMP-9 and sTREM-1 levels were positively correlated in UTI group(r=0.585,P＜0.001).The combined prediction of the area under the curve(AUC)for postopera-tive UTI in ureteral calculi patients was 0.961(95％CI:0.934-0.988).The sensitivity and specificity were 73.36％and 85.68％,respectively.The AUC predicted by MMP-9 and sTREM-1 was higher than that predic-ted by MMP-9 and STREM-1 alone(Z=25.420,P＜0.001;Z=21.531,P＜0.001).The levels of MMP-9 and sTREM-1 were the influencing factors of postoperative UTI in ureteral calculi patients(P＜0.05).Conclusion The serum levels of MMP-9 and sTREM-1 in postoperative UTI in ureteral calculi patients are increased,and the detec-tion of both levels has important predictive value for the occurrence of postoperative UTI in ureteral calculi patients.

OBJECTIVE To explore the characteristics of adverse drug reaction （ADR） induced by semaglutide and provide a reference for clinically safe medication. METHODS Using search terms such as “semaglutide” and “adverse reactions” in both Chinese and English， the case reports about ADRs caused by semaglutide were searched and analyzed from PubMed， Web of Science， SpringerLink， CNKI， Chinese Medical Journal Full-text Database， Wanfang Medical Network and VMIS. RESULTS Overall 14 literature were included， involving 17 patients. Among 17 patients， 9 were female and 8 were male， with the age ranging from 25 to 80 years. Eight patients were given two or more drugs， and eight patients took 0.25 mg as the initial dose； the ADR occurred most frequently within 6 months （94.12%）. Sixteen patients’ symptoms improved or recovered after drug withdrawal and symptomatic treatment. Eleven patients did not mention whether to continue to use semaglutide in the future. Nine patients underwent ADR correlation evaluation， and 1， 3， 1 and 4 cases were determined to be “definite”，“ probable”，“ possible”， and “doubtful” respectively. Semaglutide-induced ADRs involved multiple organs or systems， most of which were the digestive system （35.29%）， followed by skin tissue （29.41%）. Among them， acute gastric dilation， severe liver injury， calculous cholecystitis， bullous pemphigoid， eosinophilic fasciitis， acute kidney injury， acute interstitial nephritis， depression and acute hemolytic anemia were not mentioned in the instruction. CONCLUSIONS ADRs caused by semaglutide can occur in all ages， mainly within 6 months after medication， and mainly involve the digestive system， skin tissue， etc. Great attention should be paid to pharmaceutical care for those patients with liver and kidney dysfunction， neuropsychiatric diseases， glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency， etc. When ADR occurs， drug withdrawal and symptomatic treatment should be performed promptly to ensure patients’ medication safety.

Objective To describe the current state of research and future research hotspots through a metrological analysis of the literature in the field of forensic anthropological remains identification re-search.Methods The data retrieved and extracted from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC),the core database of the Web of Science information service platform (hereinafter referred to as "WoS"),was used to analyze the trends and topic changes in research on forensic identification of human re-mains from 1991 to 2022.Network visualisation of publication trends,countries (regions),institutions,authors and topics related to the identification of remains in forensic anthropology was analysed using python 3.9.2 and Gephi 0.10.Results A total of 873 papers written in English in the field of forensic anthropological remains identification research were obtained.The journal with the largest number of publications was Forensic Science International (164 articles).The country (region) with the largest number of published papers was China (90 articles).Katholieke Univ Leuven (Netherlands,21 articles) was the institution with the largest number of publications.Topic analysis revealed that the focus of forensic anthropological remains identification research was sex estimation and age estimation,and the most commonly studied remains were teeth.Conclusion The volume of publications in the field of forensic anthropological remains identification research has a distinct phasing.However,the scope of both international and domestic collaborations remains limited.Traditionally,human remains identifica-tion has primarily relied on key areas such as the pelvis,skull,and teeth.Looking ahead,future re-search will likely focus on the more accurate and efficient identification of multiple skeletal remains through the use of machine learning and deep learning techniques.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and survival analysis of myelodysplastic syndromes(MDS)with RUNX1 gene mutation.Methods:Clinical data of 177 newly diagnosed MDS patients admitted to the Department of Hematology,the Second Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Military Medical University from October 1,2015 to October 31,2022 were retrospectively analyzed.Gene mutation detection was performed by second-generation sequencing technology,and clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with RUNX1 gene mutation were analyzed.Results:A total of 30 cases(16.95％)of RUNX1 gene mutations were detected,including 15 missense mutations(50.0％),9 frameshift deletion mutations(30.0％),4 splice site mutations(13.3％),1 insertion mutation(3.3％),and 1 nonsense mutation(3.3％).Patients with RUNX1 mutations had a median age of 68.5 years at diagnosis(range:62.25-78.50 years old).There were no significantly differences between RUNX1 mutations and wild type patients in age distribution,gender,peripheral blood white blood cell count,hemoglobin level,bone marrow and peripheral blood blasts ratio,IPSS-R cytogenetics,IPSS-R stage,etc.(P＞0.05).However,there were statistically significant differences in platelet count and whether complicated karyotype.Compared with patients without RUNX1 gene mutation,patients with RUNX1 gene mutation had lower platelet count(P=0.018),and were less likely to have complicated karyotype at initial diagnosis(P=0.01).Cox proportional hazards model analysis showed that when other co variates remained unchanged,the higher the platelet count,the better the survival of patients(HR=0.995,95％CI:0.990-0.999,P=0.036);In the IPSS-M prognostic stratification,keeping other covariates unchanged,the risk of progression or death of myelodysplastic syndrome was significantly lower in the medium to high-risk and low-risk groups compared with the high-risk group(HR=0.149,95％CI:0.031-0.721,P=0.018;HR=0.026,95％CI:0.003-0.234,P=0.001).Survival analysis showed that MDS patients with RUNX1 gene mutation had worse overall survival time(P＜0.001).Patients with RUNX1 mutation had worse OS than non-mutation patients in the early WHO group.RUNX1 mutation and IPSS-M risk stratification mean OS and mean LFS were worse in low-risk patients than in non-mutated patients.Conclusion:RUNX1 gene mutation is an adverse prognostic factor in MDS patients,especially in the IPSS-M prognosis stratification group of low-risk,medium-low risk,medium-high risk and WHO classification of early patients.

Objective To provide theoretical reference and practical basis for accurately choosing the suitable packaging forms for different Injections. Methods Based on the raw materials in the common packaging forms of injections, the research and application progress on different packaging forms for injections were reviewed by analyzing the characteristics and technical requirements of different packaging forms, and the current registration information of pharmaceutical packaging materials in the Center for Drug Evaluation, NMPA were introduced. Results For preparations with small single-dose and low-cost, the ampoules or injection vials could be chosen. Powder injections are usually packaged in injection vials. For rescue medicines and valuable medicines, the pre-filled syringes could be chosen. For chronic disease treatment drugs (such as insulin) that require long-term injection, or some injections for emergency use, a pen-type syringe package that patients can inject themselves could be used. Neutral glass packaging or plastic packaging should be used for some acidic or alkaline. Conclusion The drug manufacturers should comprehensively consider the physicochemical properties of drugs, the performance of packaging raw materials, compatibility test results, price-cost, and convenience in carrying and use when choosing the appropriate packaging form to ensure the quality, safety, and effectivity of drugs.
