Objective:To develop an artificial intelligence (AI)-based platelet review strategy to identify abnormal platelet histograms with no significant difference between initial impedance platelet count (PLT-I) and PLT-F results.Methods:This study included 5 119 routine blood analysis in Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University and its Ganzhou branch from July 2023 and March 2024. Specimens exhibiting abnormal platelet histograms and an initial platelet count >40×10?/L underwent review using the fluorescent platelet count (PLT-F) channel. Consistency of the results was defined as a difference between impedance platelet count (PLT-I) and PLT-F less than ±20% of the PLT-F results. A deep learning model was developed using platelet and red blood cell histogram data from a training set of 3 807 specimens. The model′s diagnostic performance was evaluated on an independent external validation set ( n=805) using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Changes in the number of reviewed samples and sample turnaround time were analyzed to assess its clinical utility. Results:The deep learning model based on platelet and red blood cell histograms achieved an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.854 in the training set. At a cutoff value of 0.1, the sensitivity was 0.954 and specificity was 0.358. The model could reduce review by 16.80% (190/1 131). In the validation set, the AUC was 0.805, with a sensitivity of 0.955 and specificity of 0.307, corresponding to a reduction of 17.41% (47/270) in reviewed specimens.Conclusion:The platelet review prediction model developed based on deep learning technology can efficiently identify samples with consistent results before and after review, reducing unnecessary reviews and shortening specimen testing time, thereby improving the efficiency of platelet test.

Objective:To evaluate the application efficiency of the artificial prenatal sonography quality assurance system(PSAIS)in the quality control of fetal image quality during the first trimester(11-14 weeks),and to assist the quality control of fetal ultrasound examinations in the first trimester in Liaoning Province using this system.Methods:One hundred fetuses(2 757 ultrasound images)from early pregnancy ultrasound screenings at the Shengjing Hospital Affiliated to China Medical University in November 2022 were retrospectively randomly selected as the test set. The performance of PSAIS were evaluated by 3 obstetric ultrasound experts. First,the experts' sectional classification was used as the gold standard,the accuracy of PSAIS in classifying standard sections was assessed;the consistency between PSAIS and expert ratings was evaluated using the intraclass correlation coefficient(ICC). The difference of time between PSAIS and expert quality control was analyzed. Finally,PSAIS was used to evaluate the quality of early pregnancy fetal ultrasound examinations at various levels of hospitals in Liaoning province,involving a total of 35 hospitals. Ten early pregnancy fetal ultrasound screening cases were randomly selected from each hospital. The specific evaluation content included the number of stored ultrasound images per examination,the completion rate of standard sections,image quality scores for each examination and individual images,excellence rates and pass rates. The assessment results were statistically described and analyzed.Results:The accuracy rate of PSAIS classification reached to 88.25%(706/800);the ICC between PSAIS and expert ratings was 0.978. PSAIS analysis showed that the time for each early pregnancy fetal ultrasound examination was less than the average time required by experts(3.0 s vs. 63.5 s, P<0.05).Quality control checks revealed statistically significant differences among hospitals at various levels in terms of the number of stored images,completeness of sections,scoring,excellence rate,and pass rate(all P<0.05). Among them,tertiary hospitals performed better than secondary hospitals,private hospitals outperformed public ones,and specialized hospitals excelled over general hospitals. In the evaluation of section standardization,the fetal median sagittal plane had the highest completion rate[99.43%(348/350)],while the umbilical cord abdominal wall entry transverse plane scan had the lowest completion rate[31.14%(109/350)]. Conclusions:PSAIS can reliably assess the quality of early pregnancy fetal ultrasound examinations,significantly enhancing the efficiency of quality control. There are noticeable differences among hospitals at various levels in Liaoning Province regarding the image quality of early pregnancy fetal ultrasounds,and there are also some common issues in standardizing sections. The quality of obstetric ultrasound images still needs further improvement.

Based on the discussions in the The Inner Canon of Yellow Emperor (《黄帝内经》), it is proposed that in the course of the disease, "bind" represents the initial stage of pulmonary nodules, while "accumulation" represents the final form. In terms of the pathogenesis, "two colds interacting" represented by "body cold" and "cold fluid retention" are the prerequisites for the formation of pulmonary nodules, while "disorder of qi" represented by "fainting" is the core of the formation. The specific manifestation is the disturbance of pivot of shaoyang (少阳) or shaoyin (少阴), resulting in a complex of cold and heat, and then phlegm and stasis are suddenly generated and further formed into nodules. Therefore, the treatment principle should be to regulate the cardinal mechanism, dissolve phlegm and blood stasis. Depending on the complex degree of cold and heat, it is suggested to use Chaihu Guizhi Decoction (柴胡桂枝汤), Chaihu Guizhi Ganjiang Decoction (柴胡桂枝干姜汤), or Chaihu Xianxiong Decoction (柴胡陷胸汤) for disturbance of shaoyang pivot, while for shaoyin pivot dysfunction, modified Mahuang Fuzi Xixin Decoction (麻黄附子细辛汤) or Shengjiang Powder (升降散) can be used.

In January 2023,the American Heart Association(AHA)released A Scientific Statement:Cancer Therapy Related Hypertension,provided an overview of the mechanisms and clinical management of anticancer therapy related hypertension.Contemporary anticancer drugs are mostly at the expense of cardiovascular toxicities,one of the most common side effects is hypertension,especially vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitors,as well as tyrosine kinase inhibitors and proteasome inhibitors.Cancer therapy related hypertension is often dose limiting,and is usually reversible after interruption or discontinuation of treatment.The exact molecular mechanisms underlying hypertension are unclear,recent discoveries indicate an important role for decreased nitric oxide,increased endothelin-1,endothelial dysfunction,increased sympathetic outflow,and microvascular rarefaction.Based on the International Cardio Oncology Society(IC-OS),this article provides an interpretation of the diagnosis and management of hypertension related to cancer treatment.Insufficient evidence exists supporting an antihypertensive medication strategy specific to patients with anticancer therapy induced hypertension,therefore,antihypertensive management should follow current guidelines for the general population..Multidisciplinary cooperation is needed to optimize management to ensure the optimal therapeutic effect from cancer treatment while minimizing competing cardiovascular toxicities.

Objective:To investigate the teaching effect of flipped classroom combined with problem-based learning (PBL) in the teaching of the Diagnostic Audiology course.Methods:A total of 72 undergraduate students majoring in audiology and speech rehabilitation in the classes of 2019 and 2020 in Chongqing Medical University were enrolled as subjects, and three chapters of the Diagnostic Audiology course were selected for teaching reform. The 34 students in the class of 2019 were enrolled as control group and received lecture-based learning (LBL), and the 38 students in the class of 2020 were enrolled as experimental group and received flipped classroom combined with PBL. The teaching effect was evaluated by comparing the two groups in terms of classroom test scores, classroom participation scores, degree of satisfaction with teaching effect, and overall satisfaction with teaching. SPSS 23.0 software was used to perform the t-test, the chi-square test, and the Mann-Whitney U test. Results:The experimental group had a significantly higher classroom test score than the control group (25.95±1.21 vs. 23.21±1.55, P<0.001). In terms of classroom participation scores, the experimental group had significantly higher scores of participation in class discussion, cooperative and collaborative abilities, and questioning skills than the control group (all P<0.001). In terms of the degree of satisfaction with teaching, compared with the control group, the experimental group had significantly higher degrees of satisfaction in the dimensions such as interest in learning, mastery of theoretical knowledge, teamwork and collaboration abilities, self-learning ability, and self-presentation ( P=0.005, 0.009, 0.001, 0.016, and 0.005). In addition, the experimental group had a significantly higher degree of overall satisfaction with teaching than the control group ( P=0.006). Conclusion:Flipped classroom combined with PBL has a good teaching effect in the Diagnostic Audiology course and thus holds promise for further application.
