Objective:To establish a set of artificial intelligence (AI) verification rules for blood routine analysis.Methods:Blood routine analysis data of 18 474 hospitalized patients from the First Hospital of Jilin University during August 1st to 31st, 2019, were collected as training group for establishment of the AI verification rules,and the corresponding patient age, microscopic examination results, and clinical diagnosis information were collected. 92 laboratory parameters, including blood analysis report parameters, research parameters and alarm information, were used as candidate conditions for AI audit rules; manual verification combining microscopy was considered as standard, marked whether it was passed or blocked. Using decision tree algorithm, AI audit rules are initially established through high-intensity, multi-round and five-fold cross-validation and AI verification rules were optimized by setting important mandatory cases. The performance of AI verification rules was evaluated by comparing the false negative rate, precision rate, recall rate, F1 score, and pass rate with that of the current autoverification rules using Chi-square test. Another cohort of blood routine analysis data of 12 475 hospitalized patients in the First Hospital of Jilin University during November 1sr to 31st, 2023, were collected as validation group for validation of AI verification rules, which underwent simulated verification via the preliminary AI rules, thus performance of AI rules were analyzed by the above indicators. Results:AI verification rules consist of 15 rules and 17 parameters and do distinguish numeric and morphological abnormalities. Compared with auto-verification rules, the true positive rate, the false positive rate, the true negative rate, the false negative rate, the pass rate, the accuracy, the precision rate, the recall rate and F1 score of AI rules in training group were 22.7%, 1.6%, 74.5%, 1.3%, 75.7%, 97.2%, 93.5%, 94.7%, 94.1, respectively.All of them were better than auto-verification rules, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001), and with no important case missed. In validation group, the true positive rate, the false positive rate, the true negative rate, the false negative rate, the pass rate, the accuracy, the precision rate, the recall rate and F1 score were 19.2%, 8.2%, 70.1%, 2.5%, 72.6%, 89.2%, 70.0%, 88.3%, 78.1, respectively, Compared with the auto-verification rules, The false negative rate was lower, the false positive rate and the recall rate were slightly higher, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001). Conclusion:A set of the AI verification rules are established and verified by using decision tree algorithm of machine learning, which can identify, intercept and prompt abnormal results stably, and is moresimple, highly efficient and more accurate in the report of blood analysis test results compared with auto-vefication.

Neck dissection(ND)is one of the main treatment methods for oral and maxillofacial malignancies.Although ND type is in con-stant improvement,but intraoperative peal-pull-push injury of the accessory nerve,muscle,muscle membrane,fascia and ligament induced shoulder syndrome(SS)is still a common postoperative complication,combined with the influence of radiochemotherapy,not only can cause pain,stiffness,numbness,limited dysfunction of shoulder neck and arm,but also may have serious impact on patient's life quality and phys-ical and mental health.At present,there is still a lack of a systematic evaluation and rehabilitation management program for postoperative SS of oral and maxillofacial malignant tumors.Based on the previous clinical practice and the current available evidence,refer to the relevant lit-erature at home and abroad,the experts in the field of maxillofacial tumor surgery and rehabilitation were invited to discuss,modify and reach a consenusus on the etiology,assessment diagnosis,differential diagnosis,rehabilitation strategy and prevention of SS,in order to provide clinical reference.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of posterior reduction and fixation combined with pedicle subtraction osteotomy (PSO) in the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) kyphotic deformity complicated by upper cervical spine injury.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 8 patients with AS kyphotic deformity complicated by upper cervical spine injury, who were admitted to First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from October 2010 to December 2022. All were males, aged 32-58 years [(46.9±8.7)years]. Acute injury was found in 1 patient and chronic injuries in 7 patients, including 3 with cervicothoracic kyphotic deformity and 5 with thoracolumbar kyphotic deformity. Five patients were complicated by odontoid fractures, 1 by C 2-C 3 fracture and 2 by atlantoaxial dislocation. According to American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) scale, 2 patients were with grade C, 3 with grade D, and 3 with grade E. The patients were treated with posterior upper cervical reduction and fixation combined with cervicothoracic PSO or thoracolumbar PSO respectively according to the location of the deformity. The operation time and intraoperative blood loss were recorded. Neck disability index (NDI), visual analogue scale (VAS), C 0-C 2 angle, C 1-C 2 angle, cervical lordosis angle (CL), head tilt angle (HT), chin-brow vertical angle (CBVA), cervical sagittal vertical axis (CSVA), and sagittal vertical axis (SVA) were compared before surgery, at 1 week and 3, 6, 12 months after surgery, and at the last follow-up. The healing of fractures and fusion of osteotomy site were recorded at 12 months after surgery. Recovery of neurological function was observed at the last follow-up. Incidence of complications was observed. Results:Patients were all followed up for 12-24 months [(17.0±5.4)months]. The operation time was 5.5-7.2 hours [(6.2±0.6)hours] and the intraoperative blood loss was 480-800 ml [(629.4±124.0)ml]. The NDI scores at 1 week and 3, 6, 12 months after surgery, and at the last follow-up were (14.6±2.6)points, (13.6±2.8)points, (12.8±2.4)points, (12.8±2.7)points, and (12.8±2.6)points respectively, significantly lower than (29.6±8.5)points preoperatively ( P<0.01). There were no significant differences in NDI scores at various time points after surgery ( P>0.05). The VAS scores were 2.0(1.0, 3.0)points, 1.5(1.0, 2.0)points, 0.5(0.0, 1.8)points, 0.5(0.0, 1.7)points, and 0.5(0.0, 1.8)points respectively, significantly lower than 3.5(3.0, 4.8)points preoperatively ( P<0.01). The VAS score at 3 months postoperatively was lower than that at 1 week postoperatively ( P<0.05), and the VAS score at 6 months postoperatively was lower than that at 3 months postoperatively ( P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in VAS scores at 6, 12 months postoperatively, and at the last follow-up ( P>0.05). There were no statistically significant differences between C 0-C 2 angle and C 1-C 2 angle preoperatively and at different time points postoperatively ( P>0.05). At 1 week and 3, 6, 12 months postoperatively and at the last follow-up, the CL values were -8.5(-5.3, -11.9)°, -8.6(-5.5, -11.9)°, -8.4(5.2, -12.1)°, -8.8(-5.6, -12.4)°, and -8.7(-5.3, -12.5)° respectively, significantly higher than 1.2(9.5, -4.8)° preoperatively ( P<0.01); the HT values were 6.1(4.5, 9.6)°, 6.1(4.3, 9.4)°, 6.0(4.2, 8.9)°, 6.0(4.2, 9.2)°, and 6.1(4.3, 9.2)° respectively, significantly lower than 17.0(10.3, 22.0)° preoperatively ( P<0.01); the CBVA values were (23.2±5.0)°, (23.1±4.8)°, (23.0±4.7)°, (23.1±4.7)°, and (23.1±4.9)° respectively, significantly lower than (44.1±9.8)° preoperatively ( P<0.01); the CSVA values were 5.2(4.2, 7.5)cm, 5.4(4.1, 7.1)cm, 4.7(4.0, 7.4)cm, 5.4(4.1, 7.0)cm, and 5.1(4.3, 6.5)cm respectively, significantly shorter than 9.0(7.8, 9.3)cm preoperatively ( P<0.01); the SVA values were 7.7(6.2, 13.7)cm, 7.5(6.0, 13.4)cm, 7.6(6.2, 13.2)cm, 7.4(6.3, 13.1)cm, and 7.5(6.2, 13.2)cm respectively, significantly shorter than 16.8(8.2, 27.2)cm preoperatively ( P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences among CL, HT, CBVA, CSVA, and SVA values at different time points after surgery ( P>0.05). All the fractures healed at 12 months after surgery and Bridwell grade I healing was achieved at all the osteotomy sites. At the last follow-up, all the patients were classified as ASIA grade E, significantly improved compared with preoperatively ( P<0.01). One patient had transient C 8 nerve paralysis after surgery and recovered after 4 weeks′ treatment. The remaining patients did not develop any infection or internal fixation-related complications, such as broken rods, broken screws, or loose screws. Conclusion:For AS kyphosis deformity complicated with upper cervical injury, posterior reduction and fixation combined with cervicothoracic or thoracolumbar PSO can effectively promote functional recovery, relieve pain, maintain overall trunk balance, improve neurological symptoms, and reduce the incidence of complications.

italic>Anoectochilus roxburghii liquid (spray, a hospital preparation of Wu Mengchao Hepatobiliary Hospital of Fujian Medical University) has shown a good clinical treatment effect during the COVID-19 pandemic, but its material basis and mechanism of action are still unclear. In this study, network pharmacology and molecular docking methods were used to predict the molecular mechanism of A. roxburghii liquid against COVID-19, and pharmacodynamic experiments in vitro were conducted to study the interaction between the current targets with clear preventive and therapeutic effects and the key components of A. roxburghii liquid. UPLC-MS and database were used to compare and analyze the active ingredients in the liquid, and 17 potential active ingredients with good drug-like properties were screened by in vivo pharmacokinetics process in SwissADME database. SwissTargetPrediction and GeneCards were searched to find 93 common targets. Cytoscape 3.8.2 software was used to construct the "component-target" network map, and the Metascape platform was used for gene function annotation and pathway enrichment analysis. It was found that the extract could regulate the positive response to external stimuli, inflammatory response, cytokine production and other biological processes by binding the active ingredients such as isorhamnetin, kaempferol, luteolin, quercetin and apigenin to the common targets (NOS3, MPO, MMP3, etc.), and play an anti-COVID-19 role. In the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) activity inhibition assay, it was found that the stock solution of A. roxburghii liquid (for spray), and the supernatant after removing polysaccharides (mainly containing flavonoids) could to some extent inhibit the activity of ACE2. Crucially, in the experiment of 2019-nCOV-S pseudovirus infecting HEK-293T-ACE2 cells, we found that A. roxburghii liquid may exert anti-COVID-19 effects by blocking the binding of SARS-CoV-S protein to ACE2.

Objective To investigate the expression levels and prognostic value of preoperative serum exosomes micro RNA(miR)-193a and micro RNA(miR)-208b in patients with gastric cancer(GC).Methods A total of 132 patients who underwent GC radical gastrectomy in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from March 2018 to March 2020 were regarded as the GC group,while 132 healthy individuals who underwent physical examination were selected as the control group.Their clinical and pathological data were collected and compared.The relative expression levels of miR-193a and miR-208b in serum exosomes were detected using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR)method.Pearson method was used to analyze the correlation between miR-193a and miR-208b.The correlation between the expression of miR-193a and miR-208b in preoperative serum exosomes of GC patients and postoperative prognosis was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier method.Univariate and multivariate COX regression were applied to analyze the influencing factors of prognosis.Results The expression level of miR-208b in the serum exosomes of the GC group was higher than that of the control group(1.77±0.14 vs 1.02±0.01),while the expression level of miR-193a was lower than that of the control group(0.52±0.06 vs 1.01±0.01),and the differences were statistically significant(t=92.551,61.392,all P<0.05).The expression levels of miR-193a and miR-208b in GC patients before surgery were negatively correlated(r=-0.409,P<0.05).The low expression rate of miR-193a and high expression rate of miR-208b in patients with TNM stage Ⅰ+Ⅱ,no lymph node metastasis,and no distant metastasis were lower than those in patients with TNM stage Ⅲ+Ⅳ,lymph node metastasis,and distant metastasis,and the differences were statistically significant(χ2=5.008,4.397;7.142,4.688;4.407,5.189,all P<0.05).The 3-year cumulative survival rate of patients with low expression of miR-193a(30.43%)was lower than that of patients with high expression(60.32%)(χ2=17.861,P<0.001),while the 3-year cumulative survival rate of patients with high expression of miR-208b(27.14%)was lower than that of patients with low expression(64.52%)(χ2=16.340,P<0.001).The independent prognostic factors included serum levels of exosomes miR-193a(HR=0.493,95%CI:0.323～0.753)and miR-208b(HR=2.697,95%CI:1.382～5.262)(all P<0.05).Conclusion The preoperative serum miR-193a level in the exosomes was decreased and miR-208b level was increased,and their expression levels were related to the prognosis of patients undergoing GC radical gastrectomy.

Three-dimensional ordered porous carbon materials exhibit potential application prospects as excellent drug supports in drug delivery systems due to their high specific surface area, tunable pore structure, and excellent biocompatibility. In this study, three-dimensional ordered porous carbon materials were prepared using Acanthopanax senticosus herbal residues as raw material and KOH as activating agent through a one-step pyrolysis method. The prepared carbon-based material was systematically characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, N₂ adsorption-desorption and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. The results show that the three-dimensional ordered porous carbon materials prepared with KOH as the activator via pyrolysis possess abundant functional groups, high porosity, and high specific surface area, with a specific surface area of 1 471.6 m²·g^-1. The three-dimensional ordered porous carbon materials prepared at 800 ℃ exhibits a high drug loading capacity (78.0%) and drug release rate (86.8%) for 5-fluorouracil. Three-dimensional orderly porous carbon materials show significant application advantages in drug construction, and their high specific surface area and adjustable pore size structure significantly improve the drug load rate and drug release rate, providing a solid foundation for the development of efficient and accurate drug delivery system.

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) diseases are common clinical conditions. The number of patients with TMJ diseases is large, and the etiology, epidemiology, disease spectrum, and treatment of the disease remain controversial and unknown. To understand and master the current situation of the occurrence, development and prevention of TMJ diseases, as well as to identify the patterns in etiology, incidence, drug sensitivity, and prognosis is crucial for alleviating patients′suffering.This will facilitate in-depth medical research, effective disease prevention measures, and the formulation of corresponding health policies. Cohort construction and research has an irreplaceable role in precise disease prevention and significant improvement in diagnosis and treatment levels. Large-scale cohort studies are needed to explore the relationship between potential risk factors and outcomes of TMJ diseases, and to observe disease prognoses through long-term follw-ups. The consensus aims to establish a standard conceptual frame work for a cohort study on patients with TMJ disease while providing ideas for cohort data standards to this condition. TMJ disease cohort data consists of both common data standards applicable to all specific disease cohorts as well as disease-specific data standards. Common data were available for each specific disease cohort. By integrating different cohort research resources, standard problems or study variables can be unified. Long-term follow-up can be performed using consistent definitions and criteria across different projects for better core data collection. It is hoped that this consensus will be facilitate the development cohort studies of TMJ diseases.

Objective To investigate disease characteristics and hospitalization costs of children with Mycoplasma Pneumoniae pneumonia(MPP)admitted to Shanghai municipal medical hospitals from 2019 to 2023.Methods Depending on the Shanghai Municipal Hospital Pediatric Alliance,we retrospectively investigated community acquired MPP pediatric patients hospitalized in 22 municipal hospitals with pediatric qualifications(including 4 children's hospitals)in Shanghai from Jan 2019 to Dec 2023.We collected the patients'diagnosis codes,gender,age,length of hospital stay,hospitalization costs,and whether they progressed to severe Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(SMPP).Results From 2019 to 2023,a total of 29 045 hospitalized children with MPP were treated,with 6 035 cases(20.8%)identified as SMPP in the 22 hospitals.Trend analysis revealed a rising trend with years in the proportion of SMPP patients(χ2trend=365.498,P<0.001).Among the 4 children's hospitals,there were 18 710 cases with MPP,including 4 078 cases(21.8%)of SMPP.The proportion of SMPP patients also showed an increasing trend with years(χ2trend=14.548,P<0.001),and the proportion in 2023(23.0%)was higher than that in previous years with statistical significance.There were statistical differences in the seasonal distribution of MPP cases between different years,with higher proportions in summer and autumn overall.The age distribution of hospitalized MPP children varied among different years,with school-age children accounting for the majority(56.8%)in 2023.There was no difference in the distribution of severe cases between different genders,but there were differences in the proportion of severe cases among different age groups in different years,with a gradual increase in severe cases among children aged 1 to 3 years(χ2trend=191.567,P<0.001).The average length of hospital stay for MPP during the epidemic was higher than that during non-epidemic periods,and there were statistically significant differences in the average length of hospital stay between different years(P<0.001).The individual hospitalization costs during the epidemic were higher than in other years,and there were statistically significant differences in individual hospitalization costs between different years(P<0.001).The total hospitalization costs were still higher in 2019 and 2023.The individual hospitalization costs for SMPP were higher than for non-SMPP cases.Conclusion MPP outbreaks occurred in Shanghai in 2019 and 2023,with the higher proportions in summer and autumn overall.Compared to previous years,the number of hospitalized MPP children in Shanghai was higher in 2023,with a higher proportion of SMPP cases,especially among children under 3 years old.The individual per capita hospitalization expenses for SMPP cases were higher than for non-SMPP cases.

Chemical cleaning and disinfection are crucial steps for eliminating infection in root canal treatment.However,irrigant selection or irrigation procedures are far from clear.The vapor lock effect in the apical region has yet to be solved,impeding irrigation efficacy and resulting in residual infections and compromised treatment outcomes.Additionally,ambiguous clinical indications for root canal medication and non-standardized dressing protocols must be clarified.Inappropriate intracanal medication may present side effects and jeopardize the therapeutic outcomes.Indeed,clinicians have been aware of these concerns for years.Based on the current evidence of studies,this article reviews the properties of various irrigants and intracanal medicaments and elucidates their effectiveness and interactions.The evolution of different kinetic irrigation methods,their effects,limitations,the paradigm shift,current indications,and effective operational procedures regarding intracanal medication are also discussed.This expert consensus aims to establish the clinical operation guidelines for root canal irrigation and a position statement on intracanal medication,thus facilitating a better understanding of infection control,standardizing clinical practice,and ultimately improving the success of endodontic therapy.
