Objective:To explore the application value of the integrated situational simulation teaching model based on the "Internet+"in obstetrics and gynecology clinical clerkship.Methods:Fifty-eight undergraduate students enrolled in 2019 who participated in the clinical clerkship at the Chengdu Fifth People's Hospital from June to September 2023 were selected and divided into a research group ( n=29) and a control group ( n=29) using the random number table method. The research group received the integrated situational simulation teaching model based on "Internet+", while the control group received traditional teaching methods. After clinical clerkship, theoretical tests, teacher evaluation, and questionnaire surveys were conducted to evaluate and compare the teaching effectiveness of the two groups of students. SPSS 23.0 was used for t test and chi-square test. Results:After receiving the integrated situational simulation teaching model based on "Internet+" for clinical clerkship, the research group achieved significantly higher theoretical test scores than the control group [(83.62±4.95) vs. (72.93±4.70), t=8.43, P<0.001]. The scores of all items in the mini-clinical evaluation exercise of the research group were higher than those of the control group ( P<0.01). According to the teaching feedback questionnaire, all students were satisfied with this new teaching model and reported that this model increased their interest in learning. Moreover, 86.21% (25/29) and 96.55% (28/29) of the students believed that the new model not only improved learning efficiency but also facilitated the integration of theory and practice. Conclusions:The integrated situational simulation teaching model based on "Internet+" is feasible in obstetrics and gynecology clinical clerkship and contributes to enhancing the quality of clinical clerkship teaching. This model is worthy of further research and promotion.

Objective:A model for predicting sentinel lymph node metastasis was established based on positron emission tomography(PET)-related metabolic parameters and clinicopathological characteristics.Methods:A retro-spective analysis was conducted on 211 patients diagnosed with breast cancer through surgical pathology from January 2016 to March 2023 in Meizhou People's Hospital,who underwent whole-body PET/CT examinations prior to surgery.Clinical,pathological,and PET-related metabolic parameters were collected.The study analyzed the association be-tween clinicopathological characteristics of the primary breast cancer lesion,PET metabolic parameters,and sentinel lymph node metastasis.A logistic regression predictive model was constructed using Broussonetia papyrifera.Results:Breast cancer primary lesion PET-suspicious axillary lymph nodes,vascular tumor thrombus,estrogen receptor(ER),and progesterone receptor(PR)showed statistically significant differences between the two groups(all P<0.05),while maxi-mum tumor diameter,SUVmax tumor location,maximum standardized uptake value(SUVmax),metabolic tumor volume(MTV),total lesion glycolysis(TLG),tumor location,number of lesions,pathological type,histological grade,neural inva-sion,Homo sapiens epidermal growth factor receptor 2(HER-2),and nuclear-associated antigen Ki-67(Ki-67)showed no statistically significant differences between the two groups(all P>0.05).Parameters with P<0.05 in the univariate analysis were subjected to multivariate logistic regression analysis,and the logistic regression model was established as Logit(P)=-0.437×vascular tumor thrombus+4.685×suspicious axillary lymph node metastasis.The predictive model AUC was 0.738(P<0.001,95%CI:0.664～0.812),with sensitivity and specificity of 63.4%and 74.4%,respectively.Con-clusion:PET findings of the primary breast cancer lesion regarding suspicious axillary lymph node metastasis,vascular tumor thrombus,ER and PR are associated with sentinel lymph node metastasis.The predictive model established based on PET-detected suspicious axillary lymph node metastasis and vascular tumor thrombus in primary breast cancer lesions has certain value in predicting sentinel lymph node metastasis,potentially providing a non-invasive examination modality for clinical practice.

Objective:To compare the differences in repair of rabbit bone defects between allogeneic platelet rich plasma (PRP) gel and autologous PRP gel.Methods:Thirty-six healthy New Zealand white rabbits were selected and randomly divided into an autologous group, an allogeneic group, and a control group ( n=12). A model of bilateral forelimb bone defects was established in each group. The autologous group was repaired with self-made deproteinized bone scaffold materials + autologous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) + autologous PRP gel, the allogeneic group with self-made deproteinized bone scaffold materials + autologous BMSCs + allogeneic PRP gel, and the control group with only self-made deproteinized bone scaffold materials + autologous BMSCs. At postoperative 1, 2, and 3 months, 4 animals were euthanized in each group, respectively, for gross observation, X-ray examination, Micro-CT examination, biomechanical testing and histological analysis (HE staining for tissue morphology) to compare the differences in repair of bone defects. Results:The formation of trabecular bone, cortical reconstruction, and medullary recanalization occurred earlier in the autologous and allogeneic groups than in the control group. Micro-CT analysis at postoperative 2 months showed that bone mineral density [(281.51±33.69) mg/mL and (266.13±37.13) mg/mL], bone volume fraction (23.52%±2.81% and 21.91%±1.94%), and trabecular number [(1.68±0.29) mm -1 and (1.63±0.22) mm -1] in the autologous and allogeneic groups were significantly higher than those in the control group [(197.47±18.61) mg/mL, 16.54%±3.06%, and (1.06±0.11) mm -1] ( P<0.05). No significant differences were found among the 3 groups in trabecular thickness [(0.33±0.09) mm, (0.42±0.16) mm, and (0.28±0.13) mm] or in the maximum compressive load ( P>0.05). HE staining revealed a significantly greater number and earlier formation of chondrocytes and osteoblasts in the autologous and allogeneic groups than in the control group. Conclusion:Since allogeneic PRP exhibits similar efficacy in promoting new bone formation compared with autologous PRP in a rabbit bone defect model, it may serve as a viable substitute for autologous PRP.
