Objective:To explore the application value of radiomics, deep learning, and their combined models in predicting the efficacy of radioiodine adjuvant therapy in patients with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical and imaging data of 131 PTC patients (38 males, 93 females; age 41(33, 48) years) who received first 131I treatment at the Affiliated Hospital of Guilin Medical University from January 2018 to March 2023. Patients were randomly divided into a training set ( n=105) and a test set ( n=26) at the ratio of 8∶2. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to screen clinical features to determine independent predictors affecting the efficacy of 131I therapy. Radiomics and deep learning features were extracted from the enhanced CT scans and were combined by using the extremely randomized trees (ExtraTrees) algorithm to construct radiomics, deep learning, and combined models. The predictive abilities of the models were evaluated by AUC, and the Delong test was applied to compare the difference between AUCs. Results:Higher pre-ablation stimulated thyroglobulin (ps-Tg) levels (odds ratio( OR)=1.060, 95% CI: 1.025-1.095, P=0.004) and bilateral lesions ( OR=5.085, 95% CI: 1.452-17.814, P=0.033) were independent predictors of the efficacy of 131I therapy in intermediate to high-risk PTC patients. In the training set, the radiomics model (AUC=0.853) and combined model (AUC=0.880) significantly outperformed the deep learning model (AUC=0.711; Z values: 2.48, 3.09, P values: 0.013, 0.002), while there was no statistically significant difference between the radiomics and combined models ( Z=0.51, P=0.610). In the test set, AUCs of the radiomics, deep learning, and combined models were 0.746, 0.624, and 0.876, respectively, and the AUC of the combined model was higher than that of the radiomics model or deep learning model ( Z values: 2.05, 1.99, P values: 0.040, 0.047). Conclusion:The combined model demonstrates superior performance over the standalone radiomics model and deep learning model in predicting the efficacy of 131I treatment in PTC patients.

his cross-sectional study employed convenience sampling to enroll 1 994 community-dwelling older adults (aged ≥65 years) undergoing health examinations at a Guangzhou community hospital between January and December 2024, aiming to investigate associations between blood lipid profiles and cognitive impairment. Cognitive function was assessed using the AD8 scale, with demographic characteristics (age, sex, education, occupation), health status (hypertension, diabetes mellitus), and lifestyle factors (smoking/alcohol use) collected via questionnaires. Fasting blood samples quantified triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). Propensity score matching (PSM) balanced baseline characteristics between lipid-level groups. Pre-PSM analyses revealed significant intergroup differences: TG groups differed in sex, BMI, alcohol use, hypertension, and self-rated health ( P<0.05); TC groups in sex, age, occupation, diabetes, and hypertension; LDL-C groups in sex, age, occupation, diabetes, hypertension, and daily living ability; HDL-C groups in sex, age, education, occupation, BMI, smoking, diabetes, and hypertension. Post-PSM adjustment eliminated baseline differences ( P>0.05). Multivariable logistic regression adjusted for demographic, clinical, and lifestyle factors demonstrated that elevated TG levels conferred a 48% reduced risk of cognitive dysfunction [ OR (95% CI): 0.52 (0.29-0.94)], whereas TC, LDL-C, and HDL-C showed no significant associations (all P>0.05). These findings suggest an inverse association between higher triglyceride levels and cognitive dysfunction risk in older adults, highlighting TG′s potential protective role in cognitive health.

Objective In the clinical teaching of neurosurgery,the traditional Problem-Based Learning(PBL)teaching model faces systematic challenges such as the disconnection between the training cycle of specialized talents and technological iteration,the limitation of practical opportunities due to hospital infections,and the inefficient allocation of teaching resources.It provides a new path for teaching reform based on the deep integration of Artificial Intelligence and PBL,but it still needs to address issues such as differences in intern participation,insufficient technical adaptability of instructors,and fragmented resource allocation.Based on these problems,a collaborative mechanism of"technology development-talent cultivation"and a multi-dimensional optimization path of"intern participation-instructor training-hospital resource input"are proposed.On this basis,through collaborative strategies such as strengthening the incentive mechanism for autonomous learning,establishing a standardized instructor training system,and building a dynamic resource allocation platform,the management of neurosurgery clinical teaching is promoted towards intelligence,personalization,and systematization.

Objective:
To evaluate the immunity and influencing factors of diphtheria among preschool children in Shenzhen,to provide reference for effective monitoring of diphtheria IgG antibody level in preschool children.
Methods:
Serum samples were collected from 296 preschool children aged 4-6 who were recruited in Shenzhen. The diphtheria antibody titer in serum was determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay, and the effect of different immumuzation schedule including types of vaccine and vaccination timing, on the geometric mean concentration (GMC) of diphtheria IgG antibody and antibody positive rate were analyzed.
Results:
The GMC of diphtheria IgG antibody was 0.71 IU/mL, and the positive conversion rate was 33.1%. There were significant differences in antibody GMC and antibody positive conversion rate of diphtheria in different age groups( F/χ 2=11.77, 27.45, P < 0.01 ). The GMC and antibody positive conversion rate showed significant differences by diphtheria antibodies, vaccine types and end dose vaccination intervals( F=49.53, 12.95,11.61, P <0.01). There were statistically significant differences in the positive conversion rate of diphtheria antibodies in children with different types of diphtheria antibodies, vaccine types of diphtheria antibodies, and diphtheria antibodies at the time interval of final vaccination (Fisher exact probability method, P <0.01).
Conclusion
The overall positive conversion rate of diphtheria antibody in preschool children in Shenzhen is high. Timely completion of full diphtheria vaccination can improve the antibody level and plays a better role in protecting preschool children.
