Objective:To explore the value of 18F-fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) PET/CT in the assessment of early-stage graft fibrosis (S1-S2) after liver transplantation (LT). Methods:From November 2021 to April 2022, 17 adult liver transplant recipients (12 males and 5 females; age (52.6±7.9) years) in the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University were enrolled retrospectively in this study. All 17 patients received laboratory examinations, FibroScan, 18F-FAPI PET/CT and liver biopsy. According to the Scheuer scoring system, hepatic tissue was divided into no fibrosis (S0) and early fibrosis (S1-S2). Independent-sample t test was used to compare SUV max between two groups, and Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare liver stiffness measurement (LSM). ROC curve analysis was used to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of LSM and SUV max in the early fibrosis of liver grafts. Delong test was used to compare the difference of AUCs. Results:Among 17 adult LT recipients, 11 were in stage S0, 5 were in stage S1, and 1 was in stage S2. There were significant differences in LSM and SUV max between no fibrosis group and early fibrosis group (LSM: 5.4(4.7, 6.6) vs 12.9(5.6, 19.9) kPa, z=-2.01, P=0.044; SUV max: 1.7±0.8 vs 3.9±1.6, t=-3.14, P=0.019). The threshold value of LSM in predicting early-stage graft fibrosis was 8.2 kPa and the AUC was 0.80 (95% CI: 0.54-0.95), which was 2.0 and 0.92 (95% CI: 0.78-1.00) for SUV max respectively. There was no significant difference in AUC between the two tools ( z=0.80, P=0.421). Conclusion:18F-FAPI PET/CT can precisely evaluate the early fibrosis of allografts, with the similar diagnostic efficacy with FibroScan (LSM), which is expected to be a new non-invasive diagnostic tool for predicting the early-stage of graft liver fibrosis.

Chinese Journal of Medical Physics 2024;41(5):600-609
For the current lighting system for operating room,the manual adjustment of lighting position to eliminate shadow caused by obstruction will lead to distraction of surgeons'attention and potential contamination of the sterile environment in the surgical area.To address this issue,an intelligent dual-arm shadowless lamp system is proposed.A serial-type 5-degree-of-freedom dual-arm robotic system is adopted to construct the lighting system,and a D-H mathematical model is established to solve the forward and inverse kinematics of the robotic arms.For the clinical lighting scenarios of cross-focused illumination and master-slave supplementary illumination,the corresponding constraint mechanisms and motion planning methods are proposed for dual-arm cooperative control.Finally,a simulation analysis on the algorithm for the cooperative control of the dual-arm shadowless lamp system is conducted in MATLAB environment.The research results show that the dual-arm cooperative control algorithm is feasible and performs well,and that the motion trajectories of both the end effectors and joints of the arms are smooth and continuous,demonstrating that the intelligent dual-arm shadowless lamp system can meet the lighting adjustment requirements during operation.

ObjectiveTo observe the therapeutic effect of Shugan Huazheng prescription on hepatic fibrosis model rats induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) and explore whether it plays its role through hypoxia-induced factor-1α/vascular endothelial growth factor/transforming growth factor-β1 (HIF-1α/VEGF/TGF-β1) pathway. MethodA total of 54 male SPF SD rats were randomly divided into six groups: blank group, model group, colchicine group (0.2 mg·kg-1), and high-, medium-, and low-dose groups (29.52, 14.76, and 7.38 g·kg-1) of Shugan Huazheng prescription, with nine rats in each group. The molding was conducted three times a week for eight weeks. Administration began the day after the first injection, and the drug intervention was once a day for eight weeks. On the day after the last administration, the rats were deprived of food and water, and they were killed the next day, during which the physiological status of each group of rats was dynamically monitored. The pathological changes in the liver were observed by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining, and the content of hydroxyproline (HYP) and angiotensin Ⅱ (AngⅡ) in liver tissue were detected by enzyme-related immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR (Real-time PCR) was used to determine the mRNA expression levels of HIF-1α, VEGF, and TGF-β1 in liver tissue, and immunohistochemical method (IHC) and Western blot were used to detect the protein expression levels of HIF-1α, VEGF, and TGF-β1 in liver tissue. ResultCompared with the blank group, the overall condition of rats in the model group decreased significantly. The proliferation of connective tissue and the increase in adipose cells between hepatocytes were obvious. The content of HYP and Ang was increased. The mRNA and protein expressions of HIF-1α, VEGF, and TGF-β1 were increased to varying degrees (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the proliferation of connective tissue and inflammatory cell infiltration in the liver tissue of colchicine and Shugan Huazheng prescription groups were reduced. The content of HYP and Ang was decreased. The mRNA and protein expression levels of HIF-1α, VEGF, and TGF-β1 were decreased, and the colchicine group and high-dose group of Shugan Huazheng prescription were the most significant (P<0.05). ConclusionShugan Huazheng prescription has an obvious therapeutic effect on CCl4-induced hepatic fibrosis model rats. Its therapeutic mechanism may be related to the regulation of the HIF-1α/VEGF/TGF-β1 signaling pathway and the improvement of hepatic hypoxia, vascular remodeling, and the syndrome of Qi deficiency and blood stasis in hepatic fibrosis.

BACKGROUND:Diabetic wounds have complicated conditions such as infection,ischemia,peripheral neuropathy,and vascular disease.Ordinary hydrogel dressings with single structure and function cannot meet the needs of diabetic wound healing. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of a hydrogel loaded with platelet-rich plasma on wound healing of full-thickness skin defects in diabetic rats. METHODS:The blood of SD rats was extracted to prepare platelet-rich plasma.Carboxymethyl chitosan/oxychondroitin sulfate hydrogel and carboxymethyl chitosan/oxychondroitin sulfate hydrogel loaded with platelet-rich plasma were prepared separately.Streptozotocin was used to induce diabetes model in adult male SD rats.A round full-thickness skin wound with a diameter of 2 cm was made on the back of diabetic rats.The rats were randomly divided into four groups(n=10 per group).The blank group was applied with gauze on the wound.The hydrogel group,platelet-rich plasma group,and composite hydrogel group were respectively applied with the corresponding hydrogel,platelet-rich plasma and hydrogel loaded with platelet-rich plasma.The wound healing was observed within 20 days after treatment. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)On day 20 after treatment,the wound healing rate of the hydrogel group,platelet-rich plasma group and composite hydrogel group was significantly higher than that of the blank group(P<0.05).The wound healing rate of the composite hydrogel group was significantly higher than that of the platelet-rich plasma group(P<0.05).(2)The results of hematoxylin-eosin staining on day 5 after treatment showed that compared with the blank group,hydrogel group and platelet-rich plasma group,there were a large number of inflammatory cell infiltration,new granulation tissue and capillary formation in the wound tissue of the composite hydrogel group.(3)On day 5 after treatment,the results of immunohistochemical staining and western blot assay showed that the expression levels of tumor necrosis factor α and interleukin 1β in wound tissue in the composite hydrogel group were significantly lower than those in the blank group,hydrogel group and platelet-rich plasma group(P<0.05).(4)Masson staining results on day 15 after treatment showed that compared with the blank group,hydrogel group and platelet-rich plasma group,there were more collagen fibers in the wound tissue of the composite hydrogel group,which were orderly,evenly distributed and dense.(5)CD31 immunofluorescence staining showed that on day 15 after treatment,the expression of CD31 in wound tissue of the composite hydrogel group was significantly higher than that of the blank group,hydrogel group and platelet-rich plasma group(P<0.05).(6)These results suggest that the hydrogel loaded with platelet-rich plasma can promote the healing of full-thickness skin defect wounds in diabetic rats by promoting granulation tissue,collagen fiber and angiogenesis,and reducing the inflammatory response.

Background Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), one of the main components of fine particulate matter (PM2.5), have a certain impact on ambient air quality, and long-term exposure to PAHs may pose potential health risks to human beings. Objective To identify the distribution characteristics and sources of PAHs in atmospheric PM2.5 in a district of Taizhou City from 2019 to 2021, and to evaluate the health risks of PAHs to the population in the area through the inhalation pathway. Methods From 2019 to 2021, air PM2.5 sampling was carried out at a state-controlled surveillance point in a district of Taizhou City for 7 consecutive days on the 10th-16th of each month, the sampling time was 24 h·d−1, and the sampling flow rate was 100 L·min−1. PM2.5 mass concentration was calculated by gravimetric method. A total of 16 PAHs were determined by ultrasonic extraction-liquid chromatography. Kruskal-Wallis H test was used to compare the distribution charac teristics of PAHs concentrations by years and seasons, characteristic ratio and principal component analysis (PCA) was used to analyze their sources, and a lifetime carcinogenic risk (ILCR) model was used to assess the health risk of PAHs. Results From 2019 to 2021, the annual average concentrations [M (P25, P75)] of ∑PAHs in atmospheric PM2.5 in the selected district of Taizhou City were 6.52 (2.46, 10.59), 8.52 (4.56, 12.29), and 3.72 (1.51, 7.11) ng·m−3, respectively, and the annual benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) excess rates (national limit: 1 ng·m−3) were 27.38% (23/84), 47.62% (40/84), and 19.04% (16/84), respectively, both presenting 2020> 2019 > 2021 (P<0.001, P<0.05). The ∑PAHs concentration distribution showed a seasonal variation, with the highest value in winter and the lowest value in summer (P<0.05). Among the atmospheric PM2.5 samples, the proportion of 5-ring PAHs was the highest, the proportion of 2-3-ring PAHs was the lowest; the proportion of 2-4-ring PAHs showed a yearly upward trend, and the proportion of 5-6-ring PAHs showed yearly downward trend (P<0.05). The characteristic ratio and PCA results suggested that the sources of sampled PAHs were mainly mixed sources such as dust, fossil fuel (natural gas), coal combustion, industrial emissions, and motor vehicle exhaust emissions. The ILCR (RILCR) of PAHs by inhalation for men, women, and children were 1.83×10−6, 2.35×10−6, and 2.04×10−6, respectively, and the annual average RILCR was 2.07×10−6, all greater than 1×10−6. Conclusion For the sampled time period, the main sources of PAHs pollution in atmospheric PM2.5 in the target district of Taizhou City are dust, fossil fuel (natural gas), coal combustion, industrial emissions, motor vehicle emissions, etc., and PAHs may have a potential carcinogenic risk to local residents.
