OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate risk prediction models for chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression in breast cancer, and provide a scientific reference for clinical healthcare workers in selecting or developing effective predictive models. METHODS A systematic search was conducted for studies on predictive models of the risk of chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression in breast cancer across the CNKI, VIP, Wanfang, PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Embase, and Scopus databases, with a time frame of the establishment of the database to May 7, 2024. Literature was independently screened by 2 investigators, data were extracted according to critical appraisal and data extraction for systematic reviews of predictive model studies, and the risk of bias evaluation tool for predictive model studies was used to analyze the risk of bias and applicability of the included studies. RESULTS There were totally 7 studies, comprising 12 models. Among them, 11 models indicated an area under the subject operating characteristic curve of 0.600-0.908; 2 models indicated calibration. The common predictor variables of the included models were age, pre-chemotherapy neutrophil count, pre-chemotherapy lymphocyte count, and pre-chemotherapy albumin. The overall risk of bias of the 7 studies was high, which was mainly attributed to the flaws in the study design, insufficient sample sizes, inappropriate treatment of variables, non-reporting of missing data, and the lack of indicators for the assessment of the models, but the applicability was good. CONCLUSIONS The predictive performance of risk predictive models for chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression in breast cancer remains to be further enhanced, and the overall risk of model bias is high. Future studies should follow the specifications of model development and reporting, then combine machine learning algorithms to develop risk predictive models with good predictive performance, high stability, and low risk of bias, so as to provide a decision-making basis for the clinic.

OBJECTIVE To analyze clinical switching patterns and reasons between bevacizumab biosimilar and originator drugs. METHODS The data were collected from 1 175 cancer patients treated with bevacizumab at Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from January 1, 2018, to December 31, 2023. The patients were divided into originator group (n=250) and biosimilar group (n=925). The switching rate, switching type and reasons of the two groups were compared. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences in the switching rate, switching types, and the number of switches between the two groups (P>0.05). Single, one-way switches were the switching type in both groups. The proportion of patients in the biosimilar group who switched due to adverse events was significantly higher than originator group, while the proportion of patients who switched due to treatment costs was significantly lower than originator group (P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the proportions of patients who switched due to efficacy and drug accessibility between the two groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS The switching between bevacizumab biosimilar and the originator drugs mainly involves single, one- way switches. Treatment costs and drug accessibility are the main factors for the switches among users of originator drugs, while drug accessibility and adverse events are the main factors for the switches among users of biosimilar.

To construct a hybrid decision-making model that integrates knowledge-driven and data-driven approaches, and to apply it to the etiological diagnosis of ventricular tachycardia (VT). Clinical practice guidelines, expert consensus documents, and medical literature in the field of arrhythmia diseases from 2018 to 2023 were retrieved as knowledge sources. Retrospective electronic medical record data of VT patients from Fuwai Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences & Peking Union Medical College, from 2013 to 2023 were collected as the dataset. A knowledge-driven model was constructed using a knowledge-rule-based approach to establish clinical pathways. A three-class machine learning model for VT etiology diagnosis was developed based on real-world data, and the best-performing model was selected as the representative of the data-driven approach. The machine learning model was embedded into the decision nodes of the clinical pathway in the form of custom operators, forming the hybrid model. The precision, recall, and F1 score of the three models were evaluated. Three clinical practice guidelines were included as knowledge sources for the knowledge-driven model. A total of 1305 patient records were collected as the dataset, and five machine learning models were constructed, with the XGBoost model performing the best. The hybrid model adopted a knowledge-driven decision-making framework, embedding the XGBoost model into the decision nodes of a two-level classification. The precision, recall, and F1 scores of the three models were as follows: the knowledge-driven model achieved 80.4%, 79.1%, and 79.7%; the data-driven model achieved 88.4%, 88.5%, and 88.4%; and the hybrid model achieved 90.4%, 90.2%, and 90.3%. The hybrid model integrating knowledge-driven and data-driven approaches demonstrated higher accuracy, and all its decision outcomes were based on evidence-based practices, aligning more closely with the actual diagnostic reasoning of clinicians. Further rigorous validation is needed to assess the feasibility of widely applying the hybrid model in the medical field.

Objective:To compare the effects of different reference brain regions on the semi-quantitative SUV ratio (SUVR) of 18F-Florzolotau PET images of Alzheimer′s disease (AD). Methods:The 18F-Florzolotau PET images of 28 (13 males, 15 females, age (57.3±9.5) years) normal controls (NC), 19 patients (4 males, 15 females, age (73.3±7.3) years) with β-amyloid (Aβ)-positive mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and 40 patients (19 males, 21 females, age (61.9±9.1) years) with AD were collected from Huashan Hospital, Fudan University between November 2018 and July 2020. Six semi-quantitative reference brain regions were defined, including whole cerebellum (WC), cerebellar gray matter (GM), cerebellar white matter (WM), parametric estimation of reference signal intensity (PERSI), WC after partial volume correction (WC_pvc), cerebellar GM after partial volume correction (GM_pvc). SUVR was calculated for 14 ROIs, which included the whole brain defined by the automated anatomical labeling (AAL) template, fusiform, inferior temporal, lingual, middle temporal, occipital, parahippocampal, parietal, posterior cingulate, precuneus defined by the AAL template, and Meta ROI composed of the above brain regions, and braak_Ⅰ-Ⅱ, braak_Ⅲ-Ⅳ, braak_Ⅴ-Ⅵ defined by the Desikan Killiany template. AUC was used to evaluate the classification ability of SUVR, and the correlation between SUVR and clinical scale scores were assessed by Spearman rank correlation analysis. Results:The SUVRs of most brain regions showed a steady upward trend in the AD disease spectrum. In the classification task of NC and MCI, the overall performance of SUVR based on WC_pvc was relatively optimal (AUCs: 0.975-1.000). In the classification task of NC and AD, SUVRs of 10 ROIs based on the WC_pvc method showed the relatively best performance (AUCs: 0.976-1.000). The correlation between SUVR of fusiform based on cerebellar WM and mini-mental state examination (MMSE) score was the strongest ( rs=-0.72, P<0.001), and the SUVR of precuneus based on WC_pvc showed the strongest correlation with clinical dementia rating (CDR) score ( rs=0.78, P<0.001). Conclusion:The SUVR based on WC_pvc method performs well in classification and correlation tasks, and is recommended to be used in semi-quantification of 18F-Florzolotau PET images of AD.

Objective:To observe the clinical effect of adjustable silicone strap suspension in the treatment of myasthenia gravis ptosis.Methods:From January 2019 to January 2020, 60 patients with myasthenia gravis ptosis (35 males, 25 females, age distribution from 25 to 58 years, with average of 35.63 years) were collected from the Department of Ophthalmoplasty of Aier Eye Hospital affiliated to Wuhan University. They were divided into control group and observation group, with 30 cases in each group. The observation group was treated with adjustable silicone band suspension, and the correction effect, satisfaction, recovery status, ocular surface function index, recurrence rate and complications of the two groups were compared.Results:The excellent rate of operation in the observation group was 93.33% (28/30), which was significantly higher than 63.33% (19/30) in the control group (χ 2=6.29, P<0.05), and the satisfaction of patients in the observation group was 100% (30/30), which was significantly higher than 76.67% (23/30) in the control group (χ 2=5.82, P<0.05). The preoperative corneal curvature and fluorescein staining in the observation group and the control group were significantly lower than those in the postoperative state ( t=6.17, 21.48, P<0.05). The corneal curvature and fluorescein staining score of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group at 3 months after surgery ( t=3.00, 9.06, P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in the incidence of complications such as eyelid imclosure, upper eyelid inversion and unnatural upper eyelid curvature (χ 2=0.19, P>0.05). Follow up at 3 months after surgery, the recurrence rate in the observation group was lower than that in the control group (χ 2=4.63, P<0.05). Conclusions:Surgery is an option for patients with myasthenia gravis ptosis who are not responding well to medical treatment and whose condition is stable. Adjustable silicone strap suspension for the treatment of myasthenia gravis ptosis can significantly improve the surgical success rate and patient satisfaction, with low postoperative complication rate and recurrence rate, which is suitable for clinical application.

Carrying the pan-mast cell markers IgE immunoglobulin high-affinity receptor(FcεRI)and SCF receptor c-kit,mast cell-derived exosomes are rich in sphingomyelin,lipid-associated proteins,and loaded with MHC-Ⅱ molecules and transfer functional mRNAs and miRNAs to the receptor of CD34+progenitor cells and mast cells.Activated mast cell-derived exosomes contain a large number of functional mast cell-specific mediators and may vary in size,protein,lipid,RNA and DNA contents.Mast cell exosomes can recruit B cells and T cells to the lungs,regulating immune and inducing the activation of other asthma-related cells.Also,mast cell-derived exosomes interact with airway smooth muscle cells and induce the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines,allowing asthma symptoms to persist.Immune complexes(IgE and antigens)present on mast cell-derived exosomes exacer-bate local allergic reactions by a self-amplification mechanism meanwhile deliver antigens to other immune cells.Mast cell-derived exosomes may be potential targets for the treatment of bronchial asthma,and their purification and optimization be needed further to research.This article will review the mechanism of mast cell-derived exosomes in bronchial asthma,so as to provide new ideas for the prevention and treatment of bronchial asthma.
