Objective:To assess common errors in head and neck CT angiography (CTA) image reports using four types of large language models (LLM), namely GPT-4, DeepSeek, ERNIE Bot and SparkDesk, and to assess the feasibility of using existing LLMs to support quality control of radiology reports in Chinese.Methods:The study was a cross-sectional study. Totally 1 000 head and neck CTA image reports were randomly selected using the simple random sampling method from Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University in 2023, including 500 primary reports and 500 finalized reports. Two radiologists collaboratively identified six types of errors in the reports: description errors, writing errors, left-right confusion errors, diagnostic omissions, logical sequence errors, and other errors. The overall quality of the reports was assessed using a 5-point Likert scale. Subsequently, GPT-4, DeepSeek, ERNIE Bot and SparkDesk models were employed to detect the same six types of errors in the imaging reports and to provide overall scoring. The results from manual review were considered the gold standard for calculating F1 score to evaluate model performance. Intra-class correlation coefficients ( ICC) were used to assess the consistency between manual scores and the overall scores from the four LLMs. Results:In the primary imaging reports, the proportions of manually detected errors were as follows: descriptive errors 2.6% (13/500), writing errors 0.6% (3/500), left-right confusion errors 0, diagnostic omissions 6.4% (32/500), logical sequence errors 5.2% (26/500), and other errors 0. In the finalized imaging reports, the proportions of errors across the six categories were 0.2% (1/500), 0, 0, 0, 0, and 0.2% (1/500), respectively. For error detection in the primary imaging reports, the F1 scores of GPT-4 for the six error types were 0.992, 0.997, 0.997, 0.967, 0.980, and 0.992, respectively. DeepSeek achieved F1 scores of 0.980, 0.955, 0.981, 0.920, 0.995, and 0.960; ERNIE Bot scored 0.982, 0.990, 1.000, 0.956, 0.976, and 0.999; and SparkDesk achieved 0.985, 0.995, 1.000, 0.961, 0.982, and 1.000. In the detection of errors in finalized imaging reports, GPT-4′s F1 scores were 0.994, 0.995, 0.998, 0.973, 0.989, and 0.993; DeepSeek scored 0.968, 0.965, 0.985, 0.971, 0.991, and 0.983; ERNIE Bot achieved 0.996, 0.992, 1.000, 0.983, 0.999, and 0.997; and SparkDesk achieved 0.999, 0.999, 1.000, 1.000, 1.000, and 0.999. The consistency between GPT-4, DeepSeek, and SparkDesk models and human ratings was moderate, with ICC values of 0.514, 0.560, and 0.515 respectively (all P0.001); in contrast, the overall score of ERNIE Bot showed poor consistency with human ratings, with an ICC of 0.221 ( P0.001). Conclusion:LLMs demonstrate high accuracy in detecting errors in head and neck CTA imaging reports. The overall scoring of report quality shows moderate consistency with manual assessments, indicating a certain feasibility for automated quality control in reporting.
2.Exegesis and English translation of acupoint name.
Chinese Acupuncture & Moxibustion 2025;45(9):1323-1328
The acupoint name is a core term in traditional Chinese medicine and has its own mysterious and abstruse feature. Designated by the international organizations such as World Federation of Chinese Medicine Societies, World Health Organization, the phonetic translation method has been adopted for the standardization of acupuncture nomenclature. But this method neglects the cultural attributes of acupoint names. The liberal translation should be considered appropriately. English translation of acupoint name should be composed of two steps, intralingual translation (exegesis) and interlingual translation. During exegesis, the methods for discriminating phonetic loan character, selecting meanings and identifying character patterns should be sufficiently used. The interlingual translation is launched only after the fully understanding of acupoint names (based on intralingual translation).

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and prognostic factors of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in patients with secondary acute myeloid leukemia (sAML) .Methods:In this multicenter, retrospective clinical study, adult patients aged ≥18 years who underwent allo-HSCT for sAML at four centers of the Zhejiang Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Collaborative Group from January 2014 to November 2022 were included, and the efficacy and prognostic factors of allo-HSCT were analyzed.Results:A total of 95 patients were enrolled; 66 (69.5%) had myelodysplastic syndrome-acute myeloid leukemia (MDS-AML) , 4 (4.2%) had MDS/MPN-AML, and 25 (26.3%) had therapy-related AML (tAML) . The 3-year CIR, LFS, and overall survival (OS) rates were 18.6% (95% CI 10.2%-27.0%) , 70.6% (95% CI 60.8%-80.4%) , and 73.3% (95% CI 63.9%-82.7%) , respectively. The 3-year CIRs of the M-AML group (including MDS-AML and MDS/MPN-AML) and the tAML group were 20.0% and 16.4%, respectively ( P=0.430) . The 3-year LFSs were 68.3% and 75.4%, respectively ( P=0.176) . The 3-year OS rates were 69.7% and 75.4%, respectively ( P=0.233) . The 3-year CIRs of the groups with and without TP53 mutations were 60.0% and 13.7%, respectively ( P=0.003) ; the 3-year LFSs were 20.0% and 76.5%, respectively ( P=0.002) ; and the 3-year OS rates were 40.0% and 77.6%, respectively ( P=0.002) . According to European LeukmiaNet 2022 (ELN2022) risk stratification, the 3-year CIRs of patients in the low-, intermediate-, and high-risk groups were 8.3%, 17.8%, and 22.6%, respectively ( P=0.639) . The three-year LFSs were 91.7%, 69.5%, and 65.6%, respectively ( P=0.268) . The 3-year OS rates were 91.7%, 71.4%, and 70.1%, respectively ( P=0.314) . Multivariate analysis revealed that advanced disease at allo-HSCT and TP53 mutations were independent risk factors for CIR, LFS, and OS. Conclusion:There was no significant difference in the prognosis of patients who underwent allo-HSCT among the MDS-AML, MDS/MPN-AML, and tAML groups. Advanced disease at transplantation and TP53 mutations were poor prognostic factors. ELN2022 risk stratification had limited value for predicting the prognosis of patients with sAML following allo-HSCT.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of 125I seeds implantation in treating cancer-induced pain and motor dysfunction caused by brachial plexus compression through neurophysiological monitoring. Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 8 patients (4 males, 4 females; age 58-63 years) who underwent 125I seeds therapy for cancer-induced brachial plexus injury at Hebei Provincial People′s Hospital from January 2021 to August 2023. Pain severity was assessed by using the numerical rating scale (NRS) and motor function was evaluated by using the Fugl-Meyer (F-M) assessment. Electrophysiological monitoring was used to assess changes in sensory and motor branch conduction velocity (CV) of the musculocutaneous nerve, axillary nerve, median nerve, ulnar nerve, and radial nerve before and 3 months after treatment. Paired t-test was used for data analysis. Results:All 8 patients had moderate to severe pain (6 had motor dysfunction). The preoperative and postoperative NRS scores was 5.9±1.0 and 3.3±1.7, respectively ( t=4.93, P=0.002), while F-M scores was 44.8±7.6 and 54.8±5.7, respectively ( t=-3.52, P=0.017). Electrophysiological results showed that 7 patients had lesion involvement in the lower trunk of the brachial plexus, and 1 patient had involvement in the upper trunk. The preoperative and postoperative motor branch CV of the ulnar nerve was (47.2±2.6) and (59.7±8.2) m/s, respectively ( t=-3.17, P=0.034), while the sensory branch CV was (41.8±1.2) and (56.0±5.7) m/s, respectively ( t=-5.82, P=0.001). The nerve CV increased compared to the preoperative ones. Conclusions:125I seeds implantation has good clinical efficacy in treating cancer-related pain and motor dysfunction caused by brachial plexus compression. Changes in electrophysiology can quantitatively monitor the recovery of sensory and motor functions of the brachial plexus.
