Objective To explore the clinical effectiveness of a locally trained and re-optimized RapidPlan model in lung stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). Methods A total of 132 lung SBRT cases were retrospectively collected as a training group for the establishment of an initial RapidPlan model (RP-1) in the Eclipse 15.5 treatment planning system. RP-1 was then used to optimize the training group plans to generate the first-generation RapidPlans, which were used as a new training group to generate the upgraded RapidPlan model (RP-Plus). Additional 40 lung SBRT cases were selected to verify the quality and efficiency of RP-Plus plans, which were further assessed through clinical quality assurance (QA). Results The RP-Plus reduced the average number of optimization cycles by 2.1 times and 0.3 times compared to manual and RP-1 methods, respectively, and reduced the optimization time by 57.6% and 18.8%. The conformity index met clinical requirements, and the gradient index and Max_2cm(%) were improved compared to RP-1 (both P < 0.05). The RP-Plus plans showed lower dosimetric parameters of organs at risk, including lung V_20Gy, spinal cord D_max, and heart \begin{document}$D_{0.1{\mathrm{cm}}^3} $\end{document} The clinical QA pass rate of the RP-Plus plans was 100%. Conclusion The locally trained and re-optimized lung SBRT RapidPlan model can further improve plan quality and efficiency, and meet clinical QA requirements, showing feasibility for clinical application.

Objective:To explore the predictive value of the combined application of total prostate-specific antigen (TPSA), vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A), and interleukin (IL) in predicting postoperative biochemical recurrence in patients with prostate cancer.Methods:This study adopted a retrospective cohort research method. 202 male prostate cancer patients who visited Xi′an Gaoxin Hospital from April 2021 to January 2024 were selected as the research subjects. The age of the patients was 68(64, 71) years, and their postoperative conditions were classified into the non-recurrence group ( n=144) and the biochemical recurrence group ( n=58). The general clinical data and serumological test indicators SA, free prostate-specific antigen (FPSA), VEGF-A, IL-6, IL-17] were detected and compared between the two groups. Quantitative data with normal distribution were expressed as mean±standard deviation, and the comparison between groups was performed using the independent sample t-test; non-normal distribution quantitative data were expressed as M( Q1, Q3), and the comparison between groups was performed using the Mann-Whitney U test. The comparison between groups of count data was performed using the chi-square test. Through Spearman correlation analysis and multivariate Logistic regression analysis, the risk factors for biochemical recurrence after surgery in prostate cancer patients were screened out, and the efficacy of the combined prediction model based on TPSA, VEGF-A, and IL-17 was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, decision curve (DCA), and calibration curve. Results:The average tumor diameter, proportion of positive surgical margins, proportion of seminal vesicle invasion, and proportion of patients with Gleason score 3-5 in the biochemical recurrence group were significantly higher than those in the non-recurrence group ( P<0.05). The serumological indicators TPSA, VEGF-A, IL-6, IL-17 in the biochemical recurrence group were 44.28 (42.37, 48.57) ng/mL, (28.24±3.99) ng/mL, (39.14±2.95) ng/L and (66.64±6.04) pg/mL; those in the non-recurrence group were 41.25 (36.61, 43.56) ng/mL, (23.52±3.75) ng/mL, (37.19±4.19) ng/L, and (57.31±6.63) pg/mL. The biochemical recurrence group was higher than the non-recurrence group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Spearman correlation analysis and Logistic regression analysis found that TPSA, VEGF-A, and IL-17 were risk factors for biochemical recurrence after surgery in prostate cancer patients ( P<0.05); the DCA curve and calibration curve indicated that the combined prediction model based on TPSA, VEGF-A, and IL-17 had good accuracy (Hosmer-Lemeshow P=0.421), and the ROC curve suggested that the efficacy of the above indicators combined for predicting biochemical recurrence after surgery in prostate cancer patients was higher [AUC (95% CI)=0.899 (0.832-0.966)], and higher than the independent predictive efficacy of each indicator. Conclusion:Continuous monitoring of serum TPSA, VEGF-A, and IL-17 levels can effectively predict the risk of postoperative recurrence in prostate cancer patients and also provide biological markers for preventing disease recurrence.

Objective:To explore the causal association between insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1)and colorectal cancer(CRC)based on two sample Mendelian randomization(MR)analysis.Methods:A bidirectional two sample MR analysis was conducted based on publicly aggregated data from the IEU OpenGWAS project.The inverse variance weighted(IVW)method was used as the main analysis model to assess the causal relationship between IGF-1 and CRC.Additional analyses were performed using weighted median(WM),MR-Egger regression,weighted mode estimator(WME),and simple mode(SM)methods.Sensitivity analysis was performed to assess the robustness of the results.Results:A total of 386 single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs)were selected as instrumental variables(IVs)with IGF-1 as the exposure factor.The MR analysis results revealed a positive causal association between IGF-1 and the risk of CRC[odds ratio(OR)=1.178,95％confidence interval(CI):1.092-1.272)](P＜0.001),and the association remained significant after adjusting for height[OR(95％CI)=1.214(1.111,1.327)](P＜0.001).Cochran's Q-test showed heterogeneity among the IVs(P＜0.05),while the horizontal pleiotropy of IV was not detected by the MR-Egger regression(P＞0.05).The leave-one-out analysis showed that the MR results were robust.Reverse MR analysis indicated no reverse causal relationship between IGF-1 and CRC[OR(95％CI):1.017(0.997,1.037)](P=0.103).Conclusion:There is a causal relationship between IGF-1 level and CRC,and elevated IGF-1 level could be a risk factor for CRC.

Objective To investigate the relationships of cerebrospinal fluid levels of collagen triple helix repeat containing-1(CTHRC1)and olfactomedin-3(OLFM3)with cognitive impairment and cere-brospinal fluid biomarker levels in patients with Alzheimer's disease(AD).Methods Ninety-six patients with AD were selected as study objects(AD group),and divided into mild group(n=34),moderate group(n=39)and severe group(n=33)according to Clinical Deentia Scale(CDR)score.Sixty patients without cognitive impairment who underwent lumbar puncture during the same period served as the control group.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were used to measure cere-brospinal fluid levels of CTHRC1,OLFM3 and biomarkers[β-amyloid(Aβ)-40,Aβ-42,Aβ42/Aβ-40,total tau(T-tau)and phosphorylated tau(P-tau)].Cognitive impairment in AD patients was as-sessed using the Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE)and Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MoCA).The relationships of CSF CTHRC1 and OLFM3 levels with cognitive impairment and cerebrospinal flu-id biomarkers were analyzed.Results The AD group showed significantly higher cerebrospinal fluid levels of CTHRC1,T-tau and P-tau,and significantly lower levels of OLFM3,Aβ-42 and Aβ42/Aβ-40 compared to the control group(P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)for diagnosing AD with cerebrospinal fluid CTHRC1 and OLFM3 was 0.839 and 0.822,respectively,and the com-bined AUC was 0.923.Cerebrospinal fluid CTHRC1 of mild group,moderate group and severe group were increased successively,and OLFM3 was decreased successively,the difference was sta-tistically significant(P＜0.05).Cerebrospinal fluid Aβ-42 and Aβ-42/Aβ-40 in mild,moderate and severe groups were decreased successively,while T-tau and P-tau were increased successively,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).The MMSE and MoCA scores of mild group,moderate group and severe group decreased successively,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Cerebrospinal fluid CTHRC1 levels were positively correlated with disease severity,while OLFM3 levels were negatively correlated(P＜0.05).Cerebrospinal fluid CTHRC1 was negatively correlated with Aβ42,Aβ42/Aβ-40,MMSE scores and MoCA scores,and positively correlated with T-tau and P-tau(P＜0.05).Cerebrospinal fluid OLFM3 was positively correlated with Aβ-42,Aβ42/Aβ-40,MMSE scores and MoCA scores,and negatively correlated with T-tau and P-tau(P＜0.05).Conclusion In the cerebrospinal fluid of patients with AD,CTHRC1 is elevated while OLFM3 is decreased.Both CTHRC1 and OLFM3 are associated with the severity of AD,cog-nitive impairment and levels of cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers.

Objective:To reveal the differences in the transcriptome maps of brain tissues in mice subjected to Flash irradiation and conventional dose rate irradiation with electron beams and to explain the biological effect and mechanisms of Flash irradiation from multiple perspectives.Methods:Following the principle of grouping based on approximate body weights, 36 female C57BL/6J mice were divided into three groups, i. e., the control, conventional dose rate irradiation (CONV), and Flash irradiation (Flash) groups, with 12 mice in each group. Both the CONV and Flash groups received a single 15 Gy whole-brain irradiation with 9 MeV electron beams. At 3 d post-irradiation, the whole-brain tissue specimens were collected for hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining to observe pathological changes. At 1, 3, and 10 weeks post-irradiation, the motion function, cognitive ability, depression level, and spatial memory capacity of the mice were assessed using ethology. At 1 and 10 weeks after behavioral experiments, brain tissue samples were collected and snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen for reference-based transcriptome sequencing. Accordingly, the differences in the transcriptome maps of radiation-induced brain injury between CONV and Flash groups were analyzed.Results:The HE staining-based pathological result revealed that compared to the CONV group, the Flash group exhibited reduced glial cell hyperplasia and inflammatory cell infiltration in brain tissues. Ethological research result at 1 week post-irradiation showed that the CONV group manifested a significantly decreased total traveled distance compared to the control and Flash groups ( t = 5.51, 2.38, P < 0.05) and a significantly increased immobility time compared to the control group ( t = 3.60, P < 0.05). Ethological research result at 3 weeks post-irradiation indicated that compared to the CONV group, the Flash group displayed significantly alleviated cognitive impairment ( t = 3.35, P < 0.05) and reduced depression levels ( t = 2.39, P < 0.05). Ethological research result at 10 weeks post-irradiation demonstrated that the CONV group showed the worst cognitive performance, significantly differing from the control group ( t = 4.53, P < 0.05). Transcriptome sequencing result revealed that besides immune-related pathways, the Flash group also exhibited multiple upregulated metabolic pathways and fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-related pathways compared to the CONV group. Conclusions:Compared to conventional dose rate irradiation, Flash irradiation can effectively alleviate radiation-induced brain injury in mice. This effect is associated with various metabolic pathways (including amino acid metabolism) and FGF-related pathways besides immune pathways.

Objective:To discuss the feasibility and safety of stage I anastomosis and T-tube fistulation in laparoscopic local resection of duodenal tumors.Methods:A descriptive case series study was used to retrospectively analyze the clinical diagnosis and treatment data of 14 patients with duodenal tumors who successfully underwent laparoscopic local resection of duodenal tumors + phase I anastomosis + T-tube ostomy in the Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine and the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine from October 2021 to March 2024. The resection and reconstruction steps of laparoscopic local resection of duodenal tumor + phase I anastomosis + T-tube ostomy are as follows: (1) after the safe margin is clear, the duodenal tumor is completely removed in full thickness, and the specimen bag is taken out and sent to frozen section to determine the nature of the tumor and the negative margin; (2) Perforate the anterior duodenal wall below the tumor plane, place a 16# T tube, and fix it with laparoscopic purse string suture. The abdominal wall is led out through the duodenum, and the duodenal T tube fistulation is performed; (3) The duodenum was continuously sutured in a full-thickness transverse shape, and the seromuscular layer was strengthened to form a phase I anastomosis. The nutritional improvement of patients after operation was mainly observed, and the intraoperative situation and postoperative complications were recorded.Results:No conversion to laparotomy, postoperative emergency reoperation, intraoperative and postoperative complications occurred in 14 patients with duodenal tumors who completed laparoscopic local resection of duodenal tumors + phase I anastomosis + T-tube ostomy. The operation time was (225.43 ± 56.54) min, and the intraoperative blood loss was (72.14 ± 74.65) ml. The patient recovered well after operation, and no severe postoperative abdominal bleeding occurred. Postoperative gastrointestinal angiography showed that the anastomotic stoma was unobstructed, and there were no stenosis, anastomotic leakage and other related complications. There was no significant difference in serum albumin [(37.09 ± 3.53) g/L vs. (37.52 ± 4) g/L] and hemoglobin [(100.79 ± 31.93) g/L vs. (103.07 ± 19.6) g/L] between before and 1 week after operation ( P > 0.05). Conclusion:Laparoscopic local resection of duodenal tumor + phase I anastomosis + T-tube fistulation can be used as one of the safe and feasible improved methods for local resection of duodenal tumor to effectively reduce the occurrence of related complications.
