Objective:To investigate the predictive value of computed tomography(CT) based radiomics model for the prognosis of patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma(PDAC).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 206 PDAC patients who were admitted to Zhongshan Hospital of Fudan University from August 2018 to December 2020 were collected. There were 115 males and 91 females, aged (64±9)years. All 206 pati-ents underwent enhanced CT examination. Based on radom number table, the 206 patients were randomly divided into a training set of 165 cases and a validation set of 41 cases with a ratio of 4∶1. The training set was used to construct the prediction model, and the test set was used to validate the performance of the prediction model. Observation indicators: (1) follow-up; (2) analysis of prognostic factors of PDAC patients in the training set; (3) construction and evaluation of prediction model for prognosis of PDAC patients. Comparison of measurement data with normal distribution between groups was conducted using the t test. Comparison of measurement data with skewed distribution between groups was conducted using the Wilcoxon W test. Comparison of count data between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or corrected chi-square test. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the survival rate and Log-rank test was used for survival analysis. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted using the COX regression model. The PyCharm software was used for the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator method (LASSO)-COX regression analysis. The receiver operating characteristic curve was plotted to evaluate the performance of radiomics model. Results:(1)Follow-up. Of the 206 patients,205 cases were followed up for 17.1(range, 12.0?40.1)months. The postoperative 1-, 2-, 3-year survival rates were 80.10%, 29.61% and 4.85%. (2) Analysis of prognostic factors for PDAC patients in the training dataset. Results of multivariate analysis showed that pathological N stage was an independent influencing factor for prognosis of PDAC patients in the training set ( hazard ratio=1.476, 95% confidence interval as 1.054?2.067, P<0.05). (3) Construction and evaluation of prediction model for prognosis of PDAC patients. A total of 1 595 radiomics features were finally extracted from the 206 patients. By intra-group feature selection and dimensionality reduction using LASSO-COX regression model, 10 radiomics features were obtained. Combined with 10 radiomics features and 11 clinical features, using the LASSO-COX regression analysis, 15 features were finally extracted to construct the CT based radiomics model for predicting prognosis of PDAC. The areas under receiver operating characteristic curve of the prediction model in predicting 2-year and 3-year overall survival rates of PDAC patients in the training set were 0.834 (95% confidence interval as 0.777?0.891) and 0.883 (95% confidence interval as 0.834?0.932), respectively. The area under curve of the prediction model for patients in the validation set was 0.606 (95% confidence interval as 0.456?0.756) and 0.625 (95% confidence interval as 0.477?0.773). Conclusion:The prediction model constructed on CT based radiomics features and clinical features for predicting the prognosis of PDAC patients shows a promising prediction efficiency.

Objectives:To evaluate the role of pancreas multidisciplinary team(MDT) clinic in the diagnosis of pancreatic diseases,patient compliance with MDT advice,and the impact of MDT on the postoperative survival of patients with pancreatic cancer.Methods:The study included 927 patients(554 males,373 females,aged (58.1±13.3)years (range: 15 to 89 years)) that had visited the pancreas MDT clinic of Zhongshan Hospital from May 2015 to December 2021,and 677 patients(396 males, 281 females, aged (63.6±8.9)years(range: 32 to 95 years)) who underwent radical surgery and with pathologically confirmed pancreatic adenocarcinoma from January 2012 to December 2020,of whom 79 patients had attended the pancreas MDT. The clinical and pathological data were collected and analyzed retrospectively. Diseases were classified in accordance with 2010 WHO classification of tumors of the digestive system and usual clinical practices. The Kaplan-Meier method was used for drawing the survival curve and calculating the survival rate. The univariate analysis was done by Log-rank test and the multivariate analysis was done by COX proportional hazards model. Survival rates were compared using χ 2 test. Results:Among the 927 patients that had visited the MDT clinic,233 patients(25.1%) were referred due to undetermined diagnosis. A direct diagnosis was made in 109 cases (46.8%,109/233) by the MDT clinic, of which 98 were consistent with the final diagnosis,resulting in an accuracy of 89.9%(98/109). The direct diagnosis rate in the recent years(36.6%(41/112),from June 2019 to December 2021) decreased compared to that in the previous years(56.2%(68/121),from May 2015 to May 2019),yet the accuracy in the recent years(90.2%,37/41) was basically the same as before (89.7%,61/68). The rate of compliance of the entire cohort was 71.5%(663/927), with the compliance rate in the recent two and a half years(81.4%,338/415) remarkably higher than that in the previous four years(63.4%,325/512). Patients with pancreatic cancer that attended the MDT exhibited a trend toward longer median postoperative survival than patients that did not attend the MDT,but the difference was not statistically significant(35.2 months vs.30.2 months, P>0.05). The 1-year and 3-year survival rates of patients that attended the MDT were significanly higher than patients that did not attend the MDT(88.6% vs. 78.4%, P<0.05;32.9% vs. 21.9%, P<0.05,respectively),but the 5-year survival rate was not statistically different(7.6% vs. 4.8%, P>0.05). Conclusions:The pancreas MDT clinic is an accurate and convenient way to diagnose intractable pancreatic diseases,and in the recent years the patients′ compliance rate with MDT advice has increased. Pancreatic cancer patients that have attended the MDT have higher 1-year and 3-year postoperative survival rates,but the long-term survival benefits of MDT still needs to be proved by clinical studies on a larger scale.

Objective:To explore the clinical application of free chimeric medial femoral condyle osteofascial free flap (CMFCOF) in the treatment of traumatic composite bone and soft tissue defect of hand and foot.Methods:Between January, 2015 and March, 2020, 8 patients with traumatic composite bone and soft tissue defect in hand and foot were treated with CMFCOF. Of the 8 patients, there were 6 males and 2 females, with an average age of 41 (range, 24 to 56) years. The causes of injury included 3 of traffic accident, 3 of machine crush and 2 of crush. Two cases had proximal phalanx defect, 3 with metacarpal bone and 3 with metatarsal bone. The time between injury to the flap repair were 2 to 120 (mean, 84) days. The size of bone defect ranged from 2.0 cm×1.2 cm×1.2 cm to 4.4 cm× 3.0 cm×2.3 cm. The soft tissue defect ranged from 2.0 cm×1.4 cm to 5.6 cm×4.5 cm. All bone defects were on the diaphysis, without involvement of joints. Two cases had tendon defect. According to the defect of bone and soft tissue, the CMFCOF was prepared and skin graft was performed on the surface of its fascial flap.Results:The average time of flap harvesting was 53(52-96) minutes. All donor sites were directly closed. All flaps and skin grafts achieved stage I survival. All patients entered 9-16 months of follow-up, with an average of 14.5 months. The average healing time of bone was 7.5 (range, 6-10) weeks. At the last follow-up review, all flaps were not thinned. The function of donor site was restored well, without weight bearing disorder and paraesthesia in the anterior patella area. According to the trial standard of Digit Function Evaluation of the Hand Surgery Society of Chinese Medical Association, 3 patients were rated as excellent, 1 was good and 1 was fair. According to the Maryland foot evaluation criteria, 3 patients were rated as excellent for recovered with normal weight-bearing walking.Conclusion:CMFCOF can achieve satisfactory results in repairing composite bone and soft tissue defect of hand or foot. The flap has the advantages in simple operation, high quality of bone and concealed donor site.

Objective: To evaluate the role of multidisciplinary team (MDT) clinic in the diagnosis of pancreatic diseases and patient compliance with MDT advice in the current medical system. Methods: The study included 512 patients that had visited the pancreas-oriented MDT clinic of Zhongshan Hospital between May 2015 and May 2019.The clinical and pathological data were collected and analyzed retrospectively. Diseases were classified in accordance with 2010 WHO classification of tumors of the digestive system and usual clinical practices. Compliance was determined according to whether a patient received corresponding therapies or undergoing further checks or follow-ups. Results: Among the 512 patients that had visited the MDT clinic, 121 patients were referred due to undetermined diagnosis. Classified according to the final diagnosis, the rate of undetermined diagnosis in different disease categories from high to low in order was inflammatory diseases of the pancreas (75.0%, 24/32), other lesions of the pancreas (56.1%,23/41), pancreatic cystic lesions (19.1%,17/89), pancreatic carcinomas (18.3%,48/262) and pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (pNEN)(10.2%,9/88). The MDT clinic made diagnosis to 68 patients directly with an accuracy of 89.7%. The rate of compliance in the entire cohort was 63.4%. The rate of compliance of patients from June 2017 to May 2019 (68.4%) was higher than that of patients from May 2015 to May 2017(59.6%). The compliance rate of patients in different disease categories from high to low in order was inflammatory diseases of the pancreas(84.4%, 27/32), pancreatic carcinomas (67.9%, 178/262), pNEN(60.2%,53/88), other lesions of the pancreas (56.1%,23/41), and pancreatic cystic lesions(49.4%, 44/89). The compliance rate of patients with different MDT advice from high to low in order was best supportive care(78.6%,22/28), antitumor approaches beyond surgery(71.6%,159/222), further tests(62.6%, 77/123), surgery(53.7%, 65/121) and follow-up(49.2%, 31/63). In patients suggested for surgery, the compliance rate of patients with carcinomas(67.4%, 33/49) was higher than patients with other kinds of neoplasms. Conclusions MDT clinic could facilitate the diagnosis of pancreatic diseases conveniently and inexpensively. The overall compliance rate of MDT clinic patients is rather low, and patients with carcinomas have a relative high rate of compliance with the suggestion of surgery.

Objective Definition Chiasm of crus penis and discuss its possible role in penile erection. Methods Penile samples were acquired from 15 formalin preserved corpses.The structure located among crus penises were observed.The information about the structure located in crus penises with the nerve and blood vessel structure were recorded and analyzed. Results There was a structure of muscle fiber of ischiocavernosus among the crus penises.These muscle fiber through muscle bundle and tendon reach albuginea of cavernous body of the penis.There was long muscle fiber in the lateral surface of crus penises.While the muscle bundles were interlaced with each other with opposite side homonymous muscle and were encased with connective tissue when it reach to the back side of cavernous body of the penis.There were nerves and blood vessels observed in and out of the cavernous body of the penis and through the above structure in the crus penises. Conclusions Chiasm of crus penis was named as a structure of muscle fiber coming from two sides of the ischiocavernosus in crus penises.The structure of Chiasm of crus penis may provide an internal connection for the role of controlling the erection of the penis.

Objective To investigate current status of cognitive behavior on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) to provide evidence for targeted intervention.Methods A questionnaire survey on COPD was conducted at 12 settings of 4 prefectures that were sampled from Ningxia Province using multistage stratified cluster random sampling method,and 4268 residents at least 40 years old were interviewed.Multivariate linear regression method was used for data analysis.Results A total of 4056 valid questionnaires were returned from 4200 participants with an effective response rate of 96.57％.Only 6.51％(264/4056) had an idea of COPD,13.88％ (563/4056) regarded cigarette smoking as a risk factor of chronic bronchitis and emphysema,and 6.39％ (259/4056) knew pulmonary function tests.Home income,living area,education level and ethnicity were main factors influencing COPD awareness.The percentage of current cigarette smoking was 28.80％ (1168/4056) with 20.40％ in Hui (Muslim) ethnic group and 34.63％ in Han ethnic group (P ＜ 0.05 ) ; smoking index and severe smokers were not significantly different between the two groups ( P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusion Our data suggest a considerably poor knowledge and prevention awareness of COPD in Ningxia Province.In spite of relatively lower cigarette smoking rate,the problem that Hui (Muslim) ethnic people are lack of COPD awareness should not to be neglected.
