Objective To investigate the utility of combining breast mass growth orientation quantification with the S-Detect technique for predicting axillary lymph node(ALN)metastasis in breast cancer.Methods Data was collected from 163 breast cancer patients admitted to our hospital between March 2023 and October 2024,who were categorized into metastatic(n=62)and non-metastatic(n=101)groups based on ALN pathology results.All patients underwent routine preoperative ultrasound and S-Detect examination.Univariate and multivariate regression analyses were performed to assess the correlation between each observational index and ALN metastasis.Significant indexes were identified through screening,leading to the establishment of a logistic regression prediction model.The predictive value of the model was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis.Results The univariate analysis revealed statistically significant differences(P<0.05)in the maximum diameter of the mass,border characteristics,margin features,calcification patterns,orientation angle,and blood flow between the two groups.Multifactorial analysis demonstrated that calcification,border characteristics,orientation angle,margin features,and maximum diameter independently influenced the prediction of axillary lymph node(ALN)status in breast cancer patients(P<0.05).Consequently,a logistic regression prediction model was constructed as follows:Y=-7.995+2.299×maximal diameter+1.171×border+2.137×margin+1.397×calcication+0.034×orientation angle.The area under curve(AUC)for this combined prediction model was 0.869 which significantly outperformed each independent influencing factor alone(P<0.05),indicating good agreement between this joint prediction model and pathological results(Kappa=0.701,P<0.05).Conclusions Quantification of the orientation angle of a breast mass aids in predicting axillary lymph node(ALN)metastasis and enhances the interpretation and application of non-parallel orientations.The combination of quantifying growth orientation based on breast mass with artificial intelligence S-Detect technique demonstrates promising predictive value for ALN metastasis in breast cancer,providing a reference basis for personalized treatment.

Objective:To evaluate the design and application of the superior thyroid artery perforator flap (STAPF) for reconstruction after head and neck oncological resection.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 24 consecutive patients (22 men, 2 women; age 40-72 years) treated at Hunan Cancer Hospital between June 2018 and December 2023. Their primary tumors included buccal carcinoma ( n=7), tongue carcinoma ( n=8), oropharyngeal carcinoma ( n=2), floor-of-mouth carcinoma ( n=3), laryngeal carcinoma ( n=3), and hypopharyngeal carcinoma ( n=1). Flap design, venous drainage strategy, and postoperative outcomes were assessed. SPSS 19.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Results:Flap dimensions were length of 9.4±0.5 cm, width of 3.3±0.6 cm, thickness of 0.5±0.2 cm, and pedicle length of 7.3±0.6 cm. Fifteen flaps were based on a single perforator (diameter ≥0.5 mm), whereas, nine fascial flaps incorporated multiple perforators (capillary diameter ≤0.5 mm). Venous drainage routes were as follows: superior thyroid vein ( n=12, retrograde in 3), facial vein ( n=5, all retrograde), anterior jugular vein ( n=4, retrograde in 1), and external jugular vein ( n=3, retrograde in 2). All 24 flaps survived completely. Donor sites were closed primarily and all cervical wounds healed. No flap-related complications, inculding orocutaneous, pharyngocutaneous, laryngocutaneous fistula and wound infection, were observed. Final pathologic stages were T1N0M0 ( n=2), T2N0M0 ( n=16), T2N1M0 ( n=3), and T3N0M0 ( n=3). With follow-up of 12-46 months, aside from one patient with tongue cancer died of contralateral cervical and parapharyngeal lymph-node metastases at 6 months, others remained disease-free. Patients with laryngeal or hypopharyngeal carcinoma had their tracheostomy tubes removed within 4 weeks postoperatively. Conclusion:STAPF offers flexible design, with minimal donor-site morbidity and low functional impairment. It is particularly advantageous for reconstruction of small-to-moderate defects following head and neck tumor ablation.

The construction of medical ethical review is the basic guarantee for strengthening the ethical governance of medical science and technology,and mutual recognition of ethical review results serves as a pivotal approach to accelerate the construction of ethical review.This paper conducted a questionnaire survey on 30 tertiary medical and health institutions with clinical trial qualifications in Tianjin,based on the exploration of the implementation of the Notice on the Implementation of Mutual Recognition of Medical Ethics Review Results in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region jointly issued by the Health Committees of the three regions in Tianjin's tertiary medical and health institutions.By investigating and analyzing the situation of clinical trials,ethics committees,and mutual recognition from 2021 to 2023,the regular reasons affecting the promotion of mutual recognition of ethical review results in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region were identified,and reasonable recommendations were proposed.These aimed to offer references for the Tianjin region in deepening the integration of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei development and accelerating the promotion of regional ethical mutual recognition work,thereby advancing the construction and development of medical ethical review.

Acceptance commitment therapy is accepted as a new psychological therapy to provide psychological treatment and rehabilitation for soldiers,to ensure their health level and maintain the combat effectiveness of the army.In this paper,the applications of acceptance commitment therapy in military personnel are reviewed,including improving post-traumatic stress disorders,relieving postoperative or chronic pain,mitigating anxiety and depression,controlling weight,quitting smoking,and controlling alcohol use disorders.Acceptance commitment therapy is highly applicable among soldiers,especially veterans,exceedingly effective among female soldiers with post-traumatic stress disorders and better than other traditional therapies in treating post-traumatic stress disorders combined with substance use disorders or combined with chronic pain.However,traditional therapy is more effective than acceptance commitment therapy in improving sleep.Unfortunately,the number of current studies is small,research is not widely-distributed geographically,and domestic studies are lacking.Multi-center randomized controlled studies with large samples on the basis of foreign studies are needed to verify the applicability of acceptance commitment therapy in Chinese military.

Post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) is a common complication of stroke, which seriously affects the quality of life of patients. Therefore, early and accurate prediction of PSCI is crucial for implementing targeted intervention measures. Quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG), as a non-invasive and objective neurophysiological technique, can provide objective basis for early prediction and targeted intervention of PSCI during the critical period of 72 hours to 1 month after stroke onset. This article reviews the current application status of qEEG in predicting PSCI, aiming to provide theoretical basis for early identification of patients with high-risk PSCI.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of sound touch viscoelastography(STVi)and shear wave elastography(SWE)in distinguishing between benign and malignant breast nodules.Methods A total of 104 breast nodules(52 benign and 52 malignant)from 102 patients scheduled for surgical treatment at Binzhou Medical University Hospital between October 2024 and February 2025 were prospectively enrolled.All nodules were pathologically confirmed through surgical excision or core needle biopsy.The viscosity coefficient and Young's modulus of both intranodular and perinodular tissues within a 2-mm range were measured using the Mindray Resona A20S ultrasound system.The diagnostic performance of each parameter,the correlation between elastic parameter values and the maximum nodule diameter,as well as the inter-correlation between the two parameters were systematically analyzed.Results The elasticity parameters were significantly higher in malignant nodules[maximum intranodular Viscosity coefficient(Vimax):5.93(4.33,8.47)Pa·s,maximum Young's modulus(Emax):81.18(58.31,120.33)kPa;maximum Viscosity coefficient of the surrounding 2-mm tissue(Vi2max):7.57(5.40,10.16)Pa·s,maximum Young's modulus(E2max):117.21(65.66,170.66)kPa]compared to benign nodules[Vimax:3.70(2.69,5.32)Pa·s,Emax:41.42(28.29,64.25)kPa;Vi2max:4.30(3.63,5.65)Pa·s,E2max:47.23(36.42,74.67)kPa](P<0.05).The diagnostic performance of the 2-mm perinodular tissue(Vi2max:0.78,E2max:0.81)surpassed that of intranodular tissue(Vimax:0.72,Emax:0.77)(P<0.05).The combined diagnostic model(Vi2+E2,Vi+E)achieved AUC values of 0.82 and 0.77,respectively,which outperformed STVi alone(P<0.05)and showed marginally better performance than SWE alone,although the difference was not statistically significant(P>0.05).The maximum nodule diameter showed a moderate correlation with the elasticity parameters,with E2max exhibiting the strongest correlation(r=0.510,P<0.05).Conclusions Both STVi and SWE show clinical value in distinguishing between benign and malignant breast nodules.Particularly,elasticity parameters obtained from the 2-mm perinodular tissue demonstrate better diagnostic performance than those measured within the nodule itself,and combining these parameters enhances the overall diagnostic accuracy of STVi.
