Objective:To construct a risk prediction model based on explainable intelligence(XAI)analysis algorithms for orthopedic consumables in surgery room,and improve the management quality of controlling risk for orthopedic consumables in surgery room.Methods:A risk index system for orthopedic consumables in the surgery room was established through researching literature and using Delphi method.The data of supply and use of consumables were collected to construct a risk prediction model.Risk control paths were formulated from three aspects included formulating preoperative plan,intraoperative dynamic allocation,and postoperative tracking and feedback.A total of 6,572 sets of orthopedic consumables that were used in the surgery room of the 960th Hospital of People's Liberation Army Joint Service Support Force from January 2021 to December 2024 were selected.The 3,185 sets of orthopedic consumables that were used during January 2021 and December 2022 were managed by using conventional method of controlling and managing risk.The 3,387 sets of orthopedic consumables that were used during January 2023 and December 2024 were managed by using intelligent method of controlling and managing risk.The early warning capabilities for risk,and the control quality for risk between the two management methods were compared.A self-made satisfaction survey questionnaire was adopted to investigate the satisfaction scores of medical staffs and managers for consumables in the surgery room for the two management methods.Results:The average accuracy rates of using the intelligent method of controlling and managing risk in predicting formulating preoperative plan,intraoperatively dynamic allocation,and postoperative tracking and feedback for early warning events of risk in 157,247 and 57 consumables were respectively 49.68%(78/157),42.11%(104/247)and 56.14%(32/57),all of which were higher than those of conventional method of controlling and managing risk,and the difference were statistically significant(x2=9.475,23.637,13.035,P<0.05).The average reduction rate of risk events of consumables,the average intervention rate of abnormal use of consumables,and the mean value of enhance degree of turnover efficiency of consumables were respectively(6.25±1.59)%,(87.93±4.44)%and(4.78±1.69)%,all of which were higher than those of conventional method of controlling and managing risk,and the differences were statistically significant(t=4.952,6.257,4.660,P<0.05).The scores of medical staffs and managers in surgery room for acceptance of early warning for risk,support of management decision,satisfaction of using consumables,and assessment results of training by adopting intelligent method of controlling and managing risk were all higher than those by adopting conventional method of controlling and managing risk,and the differences were statistically significant(t=3.368,3.082,3.701,4.558,P<0.05).Conclusion:The application of prediction model based on XAI analysis algorithm for risk of orthopedic consumables in the surgery room can improve the accuracy of early warning for risk of orthopedic consumables in the surgery room,and reduce the incidence of risk events,and enhance the ability of emergent response for risk,and improve the quality of clinical services.

Objective:To investigate the essential determinants that are critical to initiating the assembly of outer membrane proteins by replacing the POTRA domains of the translocator protein FhaC and the insertase protein TtOmp85 of the Omp85 family. Methods:FhaC, TtOmp85 proteins and their recombinant chimeric proteins after replacing the POTRA domain were obtained by overexpression and purification in vitro. An in vitro reconstitution system was used to investigate the effects of the different domains on the transport efficiency of the substrate outer membrane protein FhaB and the membrane insertion efficiency of OmpA. Results:Replacing the POTRA domain of FhaC with that of TtOmp85 led to the loss of the transport function of FhaB. During the membrane insertion process of OmpA, the FhaC mutant containing the POTRA of TtOmp85 protein acquired the ability to assemble OmpA. Conclusion:The compositional differences in the POTRA domain of Omp85 family proteins determine their abilities to recognize their substrate proteins.

In order to explore the effects of lipopolysaccharide(LPS)on the repair of bovine endo-metrial stromal cells(BESCs)during inflammatory response,BESCs were treated by LPS in this study.Cell apoptosis rate was detected using flow cytometry,cell viability was measured using the CCK-8 assay,cell migration ability was observed using a scratch assay,and the expression of con-nective tissue growth factor(CTGF),transforming growth factor-beta 3(TGF-β3)and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)mRNA was measured using qRT-PCR.Additionally,the expression of key proteins in the PI3K/AKT and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways was assessed using Western blot analysis.The results showed that cell viability of BESCs significantly decreased(P＜0.01),cell migration ability decreased(P＜0.05),apoptosis rate of BESCs increased(P＜0.01),CTGF and TGF-β3 mRNA expression levels decreased(P＜0.01),while VEGF mRNA ex-pression increased after treatment with LPS(P＜0.01).The phosphorylation levels of PI3K,AKT and GSK-3β proteins decreased(P＜0.05),as well as the expression levels of c-Myc and Cyclin-D1 proteins also decreased(P＜0.01).These results indicated that LPS can inhibit the proliferation of BESCs and promote cell apoptosis possibly through the inhibition of the PI3K/AKT and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways.

Objective To compare the mid- and long-term clinical results of mitral valve plasty (MVP) and mitral valve replacement (MVR) in the treatment of functional mitral regurgitation (FMR). Methods Patients with FMR who underwent surgical treatment in the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery of the General Hospital of Northern Theater Command from 2012 to 2021 were collected. The patients who underwent MVP were divided into a MVP group, and those who underwent MVR into a MVR group. The clinical data and mid-term follow-up efficacy of two groups were compared. Results Finally 236 patients were included. There were 100 patients in the MVP group, including 53 males and 47 females, with an average age of (61.80±8.03) years. There were 136 patients in the MVR group, including 72 males and 64 females, with an average age of (61.29±8.97) years. There was no statistical difference in baseline data between the two groups (P＞0.05). There was no statistical difference between the two groups in the extracorporeal circulation time, aortic occlusion time, postoperative hospital and ICU stay, intraoperative blood loss, or hospitalization death (P＞0.05), but the time of mechanical ventilation in the MVP group was significantly shorter than that in the MVR group (P=0.022). The total follow-up rate was 100.0%, the longest follow-up was 10 years, and the average follow-up time was (3.60±2.55) years. There were statistical differences in the left atrial diameter, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, left ventricular end-systolic diameter and cardiac function between the two groups compared with those before surgery (P<0.05). The postoperative left ventricular ejection fraction in the MVP group was statistically higher than that before surgery (P=0.002), but there was no statistical difference in the MVR group before and after surgery (P=0.658). The left atrial diameter in the MVP group was reduced compared with the MVR group (P=0.026). The recurrence rate of mitral regurgitation in the MVP group was higher than that in the MVR group, and the difference was statistically significant (10.0% vs. 1.5%, P=0.003). There were 14 deaths in the MVP group and 19 in the MVR group. The cumulative survival rate (P=0.605) and cardiovascular events-free survival rate (P=0.875) were not statistically significant between the two groups by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Conclusion The safety, and mid- and long-term clinical efficacy of MVP in the treatment of FMR patients are better than MVR, and the left atrial and left ventricular diameters are statistically reduced, and cardiac function is statistically improved. However, the surgeon needs to be well aware of the indications for the MVP procedure to reduce the rate of mitral regurgitation recurrence.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of pertussis cases identified through active surveillance.Methods:Active surveillance for pertussis was conducted in three sentinel hospitals in Yiwu, Zhejiang Province, and Yongcheng, Henan Province. The study population included cases that met the surveillance case definition and sought medical care at outpatient/emergency departments or were hospitalized between June 1, 2021, and May 31, 2022. Samples were collected for bacterial culture and PCR detection. Case information and clinical data were collected. Differences in rates were assessed using the chi-square test or Fisher's exact probability test, and the differences in cough time were compared using the Mann-Whitney U test. Results:Among 1 423 cases of pertussis surveillance, the positive rate of pertussis was 28.11% (400/1 423), with a median age of 5 years (interquartile range: 2, 8). The positive rate in Yongcheng, Henan Province, and Yiwu, Zhejiang Province were 39.27% (216/550) and 21.08% (184/873), respectively; the positive rate of pertussis was highest in July 2021, and the highest positive rate of pertussis was among those aged 10-14. The positive rate of pertussis in hospitalized cases was higher than in outpatient/emergency cases (26.68%) ( χ2=4.16, P=0.041). Among the 400 laboratory test-positive cases, the highest proportion of atypical symptom cases was in adults aged 20-59 (43.33%, 13/30). The specificity rates of apnea and worsening nocturnal cough in monitored cases under 3 months of age were 100.00% and 73.81%, respectively. Among monitored cases aged 3 months to 9 years, the proportions of symptoms including worsening nighttime cough (63.00%) and night sweats (4.59%) in test-positive cases were significantly higher than those in the test-negative group (47.77% and 0.56%, respectively), with statistically significant differences (both P<0.05). The specificity rates of worsened nighttime coughing and night sweats were 52.23% and 99.44%, respectively. Conclusions:The active surveillance results for pertussis showed that the 10-14 age group exhibited the highest positivity rate. Active surveillance enhanced the detection rate of pertussis. Among laboratory-confirmed cases, the proportion of atypical symptoms was the highest in adults, suggesting that laboratory testing should be combined to diagnose programs of pertussis. For infants under 3 months, worsening nighttime cough and apnea increase the diagnostic specificity, while for individuals aged 3 to 9 years old, worsening nighttime cough and night sweats increase the diagnostic specificity.

Objective To observe and analyze the clinical efficacy of Hewei Jiangni Formula in treating patients with non-erosive gastroesophageal reflux disease(NERD)and cold-heat complex syndrome and explore its regulatory mechanism on visceral hypersensitivity.Methods Sixty patients with NERD and cold-heat complex syndrome diagnosed at the Gastroenterology Clinic of Dongfang Hospital,Beijing University of Chinese Medicine from January 2021 to Decemer 2023,were randomly divided into the Hewei Jiangni Formula group and omeprazole group,with 30 patients per group.The Hewei Jiangni Formula group was treated with Hewei Jiangni Formula and omeprazole enteric-coated tablets placebo,whereas the omeprazole group was treated with omeprazole enteric-coated tablets and Hewei Jiangni Formula placebo.The treatment period was scheduled to last for 8 weeks.The primary outcome indicators(Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease Quality of Life Questionnaire(GERD-Q)scale score:response rate,total score,and single symptom score)and secondary outcome indicators(traditional Chinese medicine clinical scores scale)were recorded before and after treatment in both groups.Ten healthy individuals were recruited from the Physical Examination Center of Dongfang Hospital,Beijing University of Chinese Medicine,as the healthy control group.The expression levels of mast cell tryptase(MCT),protease-activated receptor 2(PAR2),transient receptor potential vanilloid 1(TRPV1),substance P(SP),calcitonin gene-related peptide(CGRP),5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT),and 5-hydroxytryptamine 3 receptor(5-HT3R)were recorded.These indicators were then used for the following comparisons:the NERD patients vs.the healthy group before treatment;the Hewei Jiangni Formula group vs.the omeprazole group after treatment;the intra-group comparisons within both NERD groups.Changes in serum levels of these indicators were observed before and after treatment in both NERD groups.Results According to the GERD-Q scores before and after treatment,the effective rate was 90.00%in the Hewei Jiangni Formula group and 86.67%in the omeprazole group,with no significant differences.Both groups exhibited improved symptoms of heartburn,regurgitation,upper abdominal pain,and sleep disorders caused by heartburn or regurgitation(P<0.05);however,neither group exhibited significantly improved nausea(P>0.05).Before treatment,MCT,PAR2,TRPV1,SP,CGRP,5-HT,and 5-HT3R expression levels in both NERD groups were significantly higher than those in the healthy control group(P<0.05).After treatment with Hewei Jiangni Formula or omeprazole enteric-coated tablets,the expression levels of these indicators decreased in both groups(P<0.05).The omeprazole group was superior to Hewei Jiangni Formula in reducing 5-HT3R expression(P<0.05).Conclusion Hewei Jiangni Formula significantly improves the symptoms of patients with NERD and cold-heat complex syndrome,with efficacy comparable to that of omeprazole enteric-coated tablets.It is superior to omeprazole in improving symptoms of spleen yang deficiency,such as loss of appetite,fatigue,borborygmus with loose stools,and cold extremities.Hewei Jiangni Formula reduces MCT,PAR2,TRPV1,SP,CGRP,5-HT,and 5-HT3R expression levels,regulates related signaling pathways,and alleviates visceral hypersensitivity.

Tumor-targeted therapy is a vital approach in precision medicine,selection of target molecule is a key element in tumor-targeted therapy.B7-H3(CD276),as an immune checkpoint molecule selectively highly expressed on tumor cells,is a crucial molecule involved in regulation of tumor immunity.Numerous recent studies have found that B7-H3,in addition to its immune check-point function,also participates in regulation of malignant biological behaviors of tumor cells and is considered to have great potential as a pan-cancer universal drug target.Current immunotherapeutic strategies targeting B7-H3 primarily include development of block-ing monoclonal antibodies(Blocking mAb),antibody-drug conjugate(ADC),chimeric antigen receptor(CAR)T/NK cell therapies,monoclonal antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity(ADCC)drugs,radionuclide drug conjugates(RDC),bispecific/trispecific anti-body(BsAb/TriAb),and antibody cytokine drug combinations,among others.These strategies aim to enhance body's immune re-sponse to cancer through various mechanisms,thereby inhibiting tumor growth and metastasis.Multiple preclinical and clinical studies have shown that immunotherapy targeting B7-H3 has potential therapeutic value.Therefore,this article mainly reviews the latest status of development of tumor immunotherapy drugs targeting B7-H3 molecule.
