Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies are being widely applied in radiotherapy. However, the integration of AI into clinical workflows of radiotherapy faces a series of challenges, such as poor model interpretability, domain shifts between clinical application and training data, and the inherent model uncertainties. Therefore, case-specific quality assurance (QA) is essential before deploying AI models in clinical practice. This paper reviews and summarizes QA methodologies for the application of AI models in radiotherapy across four key areas: image registration, image generation, region of interest segmentation, and treatment planning.

Objective To explore the therapeutic mechanism of Modified Lugen Formula(Phragmitis Rhizoma,Cicadae Periostracum,Batryticatus Bombyx,Lonicerae Japonicae Flos,Glycyrrhiza,Menthae Haplocalycis Herba,Notopterygii Rhizoma et Radix,Puerariae Lobatae Radix,Bupleuri Radix)in treating influenza from the virus-host interaction interface.Methods The phytocompounds were first collected from the HERB database,and then potential active compounds were screened out by Lipinski's rules of five.The targets of active compounds were further predicted through the SwissTargetPrediction platform.Differentially expressed genes(DEGs)were determined from the human H1N1 influenza dataset GSE90732 available in the Gene Expression Omnibus database(GEO).H1N1-Homo sapiens-related protein-protein interactions(PPIs)were gathered from the Pathogen-Host Interaction Search Tool(PHISTO).The above mentioned bioinformatic datasets were integrated.Then a PPI network and a Formula-virus-host interaction network were constructed using Cytoscape.Functional enrichment analyses were performed by using R software.Finally,molecular docking was carried out to evaluate the binding activities between the key compounds and targets.Results A total of 1 252 active compounds,1 415 targets,951 influenza-related DEGs,and 10 142 H1N1-Homo sapiens-related PPIs were obtained.There were 72 intersection targets between the Modified Lugen Formula and influenza.Functional enrichment analyses showed that these targets are closely related to host defense and programmed cell death.The network topological analysis showed that active compounds in the Modified Lugen Formula,such as oleanolic acid,γ-undecalactone,and longispinogenin,regulate viral proteins M2,NA,NS1,and HA and/or the host factors HSP90AA1,NRAS,and ITGB1,thus exert therapeutic effect.Molecular docking results confirmed that these compounds had a good binding ability with the targets.Conclusion Multiple active ingredients in Modified Lugen Formula directly target influenza virus proteins and/or host factors,thereby play an anti-influenza role in multiple dimensions,including inhibiting virus replication,regulating host defense and cell death.This study provides a theoretical basis for further experimental analysis of the action mechanism of the Modified Lugen Formula in treating influenza.

Klebsiella pneumoniae(K.pneumoniae)is important zoonotic pathogen causing multiple local and systemic infections.At present,the drug resistance of K.pneumoniae is serious,and mul-tiple drug-resistant strains continue to emerge.Even the incidence of drug-resistant K.pneumoniae infection is increasing year by year.In this study,K.pneumoniae clinical isolate 71Y was used as the starting strain,and a phage with strong lytic activity was successfully obtained from sewage samples.The phage was named vB_KpnP_71Y(abbreviated as P71Y),the general biological char-acteristics and genome of P71Y were further studied and analyzed.P71Y can form clear plaque with a diameter of 2-5 mm and a translucent halo ring on the host bacterium 71Y lawn.Electron micros-copy observation shows that P71Y is a member of the order Autographiviridae and family Caudovi-rales.The incubation period for P71Y infected with K.pneumoniae is about 3 minutes,and one in-fection cycle lasts for about 50 minutes.Each infection of a bacterium can produce approximately 58 progeny phage virus particles.Cleavage spectra showed that the phage could lysate K20 and K57 serotypes of K.pneumoniae.The phage had good stability at 4-50 ℃ and pH values of 3-12.Genom-ic analysis revealed that P71Y contained a double-stranded DNA with a total length of 39 700 bp and a G+C content of 53％.There are a total of 53 coding genes,P71Y does not carry virulence factors and drug resistance genes,which has shown genetic safety.This study isolated a novel lytic phage that can cleave multiple serotypes of K.pneumoniae,which provided experimental materials for the study of the interaction between bacteriophages,different serotypes of K.pneumoniae,and the application of phage for the prevention and controlling of infections caused by multi-drug-re-sistant K.pneumoniae.

Objective To investigate the role of miR-592 in the Glioma.Methods We first analyzed the expression of miR-592 in Glioma tissues from patients by quantitative PCR.We transfected U251 cells with miR-592 mimics and then detected the growth of cells by MTT assay.We performed dual-luciferase reporter assay and western blot assay to examine whether Runx2 was the direct target of miR-592 in U251 cells.In order to test whether Runx2 was the functional target of miR-592,we determined the cell growth curve by down-regulating the level of Runx2.Moreover,we also detected the apoptosis of U251 after Runx2 knockdown.Results The expression of miR-592 was significantly reduced in glioma tissues (t=2.752,P--0.013).Over-expression miR-592 remarkably increased the apoptotic rate of U251 cells compared with the control group (t=2.127,P=0.031;t=2.284,P=0.026).Flow cytometry analysis showed that MiR-592 significantly promoted apoptotic cell death of U251 cells Apoptosis rate was 7.2％±0.68％ in miR-592 group and 17.47％±1.45％ in control group (t=3.294,P=0.007).The results of double luciferase assay and Western blot assay showed that miR-592 directly targeted the 3'Runx2 of-UTR to inhibit the level of Runx2 protein.The effect of down-regulation of Runx2 on the growth of U251 cells was detected,the results showed that growth was significantly slower in the cells transfected with Runx2 siRNA than in those without Runx2 siRNA (t=3.124,P=0.O11).Detection of cycle by flow cytometry showed that runx2 down-regulated the apoptosis rate of U251 cells.Tumor growth curve showed that overexpression of miR-592 significantly inhibited tumor growth and the down regulation of Runx2 expresssion also significantly inhibited tumor growth.Conclusion miR-592 suppresses the growth and promotes the apoptotic rate of U251 cells by targeting Runx2.

Objective To investigate the risk factors and the influence of intravenous thrombolysis of acute cerebral infarction with cerebral microbleeds(CMBs)by SWI.Methods 1 64 patients with acute cerebral infarction were enrolled in this study.All pa-tients were scanned with routine MRI and SWI.According to the presence of CMBs on SWI,the patients were classified into two groups:CMBs group(73 cases)and non-CMBs group(91 cases).Past history was recorded and risk factors of CMBs were explored. 76 cases patients(including 35 cases of CMBs group and 41 cases of non-CMBs group)were treated by intravenous thrombolysis and rescanned with routine MRI and SWI to compare the changes in the number of CMBs and hemorrhage transformation 24 hours after thrombolysis.Results The difference age,hypertension,lacunar infarction and leukoaraiosis between the two groups were significant (P <0.05).The difference of CMBs and hemorrhagic transformation between the two groups treated by thrombolysis were not sig-nificant(P >0.05).Conclusion Acute cerebral infarction with CMBs are influenced by age,hypertension,lacunar infarction and leu-koaraiosis.Thrombolysis in acute cerebral infarction with CMBs can not augment the incidence of hemorrhagic transformation.

Objective To discussion the effect of endoscopic single nostril transsphenoidal pituitary tumor resection on improving clini-cal symptoms and related quality of life of patients. Methods Selected 114 cases of patients with pituitary tumors in our hospital from August 2013 to August 2015, and randomly divided them into the nasal endoscopic group and the microscopic group according to the random number table,with 57 patients in each group. Patients of the 2 groups were treated with nasal endoscopic and microscopic single nostril transsphenoi-dal pituitary tumor resection respectively. The operation situation,hormone decline,incidence of complications after surgery and SNOT-20 and VAS score of the two groups were compared. Results Operative time of nasal endoscopic group was significantly higher than that in the mi-croscopic group,whlie the blood loss,length of hospital stay in endoscopic group was significantly lower than the microscopic group,and the difference was statistically significant (P<0. 05). The total resection rate of pituitary tumor of the two groups were of no statistically signifi-cance (P>0. 05). One week after operation,cerebrospinal fluid cell count,cerebrospinal fluid protein,adrenocorticotropic hormone,serum chloride,sodium, growth hormone,and prolactin levels of the nasal endoscopic group were lower than the microscopic group (P<0. 05). The complication rate was 14. 9% in the nasal endoscopic group,which was obviously lower than 59. 6% in the microscopic group (P<0. 05). One week after operation,the SNOT-20 scores and VAS scores were increased in both of the two groups,but the microscopic group increased more significantly (P<0. 05). Conclusion Endoscopic single nostril transsphenoidal pituitary tumor resection surgery cost longer operation time,but it lead to less trauma and less postoperative complications,which may delay the decline of patients’ quality of life and promote the improvement of prognosis.

Objective To explore the effects of group sand play on the behavior of cerebral palsy (CP)children with behavioral problems.Methods Ninety children with CP aged 3-5 with behavioral problems were selected,after those with mental retardation had been excluded through the Peabody picture vocabulary test (PPVT).Their behavioral problems were diagnosed using Achenhach's child behavior check list (CRCL).The children were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group with 45 cases in each.The experimental group received 10 weeks of sand play treatment in addition to routine rehabilitation.The controls received only routine rehabilitation.Results After treatment,the social withdrawal,depression,aggression and disruptive behavior scores of the 3-year olds in the experimental group were significantly lower than before treatment and significantly lower than those of the controls.For the 4 and 5 year-old boys the results were similar in terms of soclal withdrawal,depression,immaturity,sexual behavior,aggression and delinquent behavior,For the 4 and 5 year-old girls the scores for depression,somatic complaints,social withdrawal,compulsion,aggression,and hyperauctivity showed similar significant improvements.Conclusion Group sand play can improve the behavior and promote the mental health of CP children.

ObjectiveTo assess the effects of crude extract of Cape Jasmine in the experimental Alzheimer's model induced by Aβ25-35 and the memory acquisition impaied model induced by ibotenic acid(IBO).MethodsAlzheimer's dementia of mice was induced by Aβ25-35 i.cv. treatment and the impaired memory acquisition model was induced by IBO injected into the forebrain nucleus basalis. The effects of crude extract of Cape Jasmine on the learning and memory function of model animals were evaluated with Morris water maze and step-through test in 3 dose groups(12-5, 25, 50 mg/kg).
