Objective:To establish a rapid quantitative model for the determination of moisture,extractives,and content in Pollen Typhae.Methods:Near-infrared spectra of 91 batches of Pollen Typhae samples were collected.Spectral preprocessing was performed using S-G,MSC,SNV,and CWT methods.Variable selection was conducted using CARS,SPA,and VIP methods,and compared with full-spectrum modeling.Partial least squares(PLS)mod-els were established for the quantitative determination of moisture,total ash,extractives,and content.The model performance was evaluated by calculating the coefficient of determination for the calibration set and validation set(R2 c,R2v),root mean square error of calibration and validation(RMSEc,RMSEv),and residual prediction devia-tion(RPD).Results:The PLS models for moisture,extractives,and content in Pollen Typhae showed R2c and R2v values greater than 0.9,RMSEc and RMSEv values approaching 0,and RPD values greater than 3.Conclusion:In this study,near-infrared spectroscopy was used to construct quantitative prediction models for moisture,extractives,typhaneoside,and isorhamnetin-3-O-neohesperidoside content in Pollen Typhae.This method enables rapid detection of the main quality control indicators of Pollen Typhae,providing strong technical support for its quality supervision.

Objective:To summarize the early clinical outcomes of aortic valve replacement(AVR) using the Perceval sutureless aortic valve.Methods:This retrospective study included 50 patients who underwent AVR with the Perceval sutureless prostheses at Beijing Anzhen Hospital between June 2023 and January 2025. Surgical parameters, early clinical outcomes, valve function, and hemodynamic performance were evaluated to summarize clinical effectiveness.Results:The mean age of patients was(63.5±9.1) years, predominantly female(36/50). Severe aortic stenosis was present in 43 cases(86.0%). A preoperative aortic annulus dimension of 20.0(19.0, 21.0) mm measured in both anteroposterior and transverse diameters. Preoperative peak transvalvular gradient was(92.7±31.0)mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), with a mean gradient of (58.0±21.2) mmHg. All procedures were successfully completed using the Perceval sutureless prostheses. Isolated AVR was performed in 20 patients(40.0%), with cardiopulmonary bypass and aortic cross-clamp times of 75.0(50.5, 99.5) min and 50.5(29.5, 71.5) min, respectively. Postoperative transesophageal echocardiography revealed an immediate reduction in the peak transvalvular gradient to 11.0(8.0, 18.0) mmHg, significantly lower compared to preoperative measurements( P<0.001). Two cases of paravalvular leakage and one case requiring permanent pacemaker implantation were reported postoperatively. All patients completed the 3-month follow-up, with one death during the follow-up period; the remaining patients exhibited normal prosthetic valve function without major adverse cardiovascular events. Significant postoperative reductions were observed in left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(45.8 mm vs. 43.2 mm, P=0.003) and left atrial diameter(53.9 mm vs. 44.6 mm, P<0.001) compared with baseline. Conclusion:AVR using the Perceval sutureless prostheses demonstrated safe and effective early clinical outcomes with excellent hemodynamic performance and low incidence of postoperative paravalvular leakage and permanent pacemaker implantation. The sutureless technique represents a viable alternative strategy, particularly advantageous for patients with small aortic annuli or complex surgical conditions, warranting broader clinical adoption.

Objective:To construct a machine learning classification prediction model using planning-omics (planomics) features to predict the γ pass rate of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) plan dose verification in fixed-field thoracic tumors, and evaluate the application of planomics in radiotherapy quality assurance.Methods:The fixed-field IMRT plans of 240 patients with chest tumors admitted to Department of Radiotherapy, Henan Cancer Hospital from August 2022 to March 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. All plans underwent dose verification using the electronic portal imaging system detector on the Varian accelerator to collect field dose data. The dose verification results were analyzed through Portal Dosimetry in the treatment planning system of Eclipse. The γ pass rate standard was set at 2%/2 mm with a 10% dose threshold. From the planning documents, 48 conventional planning features, 2476 planomics features, and the combination of the previous two feature sets were extracted. Subsequently, an auto-encoder classification model was constructed. To evaluate the classification efficacy of various feature sets, 20 random train-test divisions were conducted by calculating the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) values along with the accuracy rates.Results:After the feature selection, 2 conventional features and 16 planomics features were finally selected. In the testing set, the AUC values for the model using combined features, planomics features, and conventional planned features were 0.802±0.030, 0.740±0.069, and 0.673±0.083, respectively. In contrast, in the training set, these AUC values were 0.844±0.074, 0.816±0.047, and 0.687±0.036, respectively. The accuracy rates were 0.752±0.083, 0.703±0.110, and 0.648±0.081 in the testing set, and 0.753±0.098, 0.751±0.075, and 0.624±0.054 in the training set for the combined, planomics, and conventional planning feature sets, respectively.Conclusions:For thoracic fixed-field adjusted radiotherapy planning, the machine learning method based on planomics features can be utilized to build a classification model for predicting the γ pass rate. Combining planomics features with conventional planned features can enhance the predictive performance of the classification models.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of acute stent implantation during endovascular treatment for patients with emergent large vessel occlusion due to intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis.Methods:A retrospective analysis was carried out on 46 patients with emergent large vessel occlusion due to intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis who received endovascular treatment at the Strategic Support Force Medical Center from January 2015 to August 2022. Twenty-seven patients underwent balloon angioplasty alone and 19 patients underwent acute stent implantation. The baseline characteristics, modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (mTICI) score of the responsible vessels, modified Rankin scale (mRS) score 90 days after operation, incidence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and mortality of the two groups were evaluated.Results:The proportion of effective recanalization of the offending vessels (mTICI≥2b) in the acute stenting group was slightly higher than that in the balloon angioplasty group (16/19 vs. 81.5%), but the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Besides, there was no significant difference in the median of mRS between the acute stenting group [3.0(0, 4.0)] and the balloon angioplasty group [4.0(1.0, 5.0)] 90 days after operation ( P>0.05). In terms of safety, the incidence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and mortality were comparable between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The effect of acute stent implantation during endovascular treatment for patients with emergent large vessel occlusion due to intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis is not inferior to that of balloon angioplasty, and it does not increase the risk of intracranial bleeding complications.

Objective To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of electroacupuncture(EA)in the treatment of postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV)after gynecological surgery.Methods PubMed,Cochrane Library,Web of Science,Embase,China national knowledge infrastructure(CNKI),Wanfang database,and China biomedical literature database(CBM)were systematically searched.The re-trieval period was from the establishment of the database to December 2022.Relevant randomized controlled trials on EA for the treatment of PONV in gynecological surgery were collected.RevMan 5.3 software was used for meta-analysis.Results Fourteen randomized controlled trials were accommodated,including 958 patients,477 patients in the EA group and 481 patients in the control group.Compared with the control group,the incidence of PONV was significantly lower in group EA at 0-48 hours postoperatively(RR=0.55,95％CI 0.47 to 0.65,P＜0.001),and the PONV scores were significantly lower in the postopera-tive period within 48 hours in group EA(MD=-0.40 scores,95％CI-0.65 to-0.16 scores,P=0.004),the incidence of postoperative remedial antiemetic were significantly lower(RR=0.28,95％CI 0.16 to 0.51,P＜0.001).Conclusion EA can reduce the incidence of PONV and the incidence of re-medial antiemetic after gynecologic surgery.
