Lymphoma is a highly heterogeneous malignancy characterized by complex molecular regulatory mechanisms that result in significant differences in aggressiveness and prognosis across its subtypes.Gene copy number alteration(CNA)analysis,an emerging technology,has become a pivotal tool in the precision re-search and management of lymphoma.By detecting DNA deletions,amplifications,and chromosomal copy number changes,CNA analysis addresses the limitations of traditional cytogenetic techniques,enhances the ac-curacy of subtype classification,and aids in evaluating tumor heterogeneity and disease progression.This re-view provides a comprehensive summary of CNA detection methods and their applications in lymphoma,with a focus on recent advancements in the field.It offers a comparative analysis of CNA detection techniques and discusses their role in precision diagnosis,subtype classification,monitoring disease progression,predicting therapeutic resistance,and assessing prognosis.Additionally,the review explores the potential applications of CNA analysis in uncovering molecular regulatory mechanisms,optimizing therapeutic strategies,and impro-ving patient survival outcomes.

This study aims to investigate the optimal ratio of Astragali Radix-Curcumae Rhizoma(AC) for inhibiting the proliferation of 143B osteosarcoma cells, and to investigate the mechanism by which AC inhibits osteosarcoma growth and metastasis through angiogenesis and cell adhesion mediated by the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase(PI3K)/protein kinase B(Akt)/hypoxia inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α) pathway. A subcutaneous 143B tumor-bearing nude mouse model was successfully established and randomly divided into the model group, and the AC 1∶1, 2∶1, and 4∶1 groups. Body weight, tumor volume, and tumor weight were recorded. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR) and Western blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression levels of PI3K, Akt, phosphorylated Akt(p-Akt), HIF-1α, vascular endothelial growth factor A(VEGFA), transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1), epithelial cadherin(E-cadherin), neural cadherin(N-cadherin), vimentin, matrix metalloproteinase 2(MMP2), matrix metalloproteinase 9(MMP9), B-cell lymphoma-2(Bcl-2), Bcl-2-associated X protein(Bax), and caspase-3 in the hypoxic core region of the tumor tissue. A cell hypoxia model was established, and the effects of AC-medicated serum(model group, AC 1∶1, 2∶1, and 4∶1 groups) on angiogenesis, proliferation, adhesion, invasion, and migration of 143B osteosarcoma cells were examined through CCK-8, flow cytometry, Transwell assay, cell adhesion assay, and HUVEC tube formation assay. The results showed that compared with the model group, the tumor weight and volume were smallest in the 2∶1 group. The expression levels of PI3K, Akt, p-Akt, HIF-1α, VEGFA, and TGF-β1 were significantly decreased, and the protein expression of E-cadherin was significantly increased, while the protein expression of N-cadherin, vimentin, MMP2, and MMP9 was significantly decreased. Additionally, the protein expression of Bax and caspase-3 was significantly increased, and Bcl-2 protein expression was significantly decreased. In vitro experiments showed that after intervention with AC-medicated serum at a 2∶1 ratio, the cell activity, adhesion, invasion, and migration of 143B cells were significantly reduced, apoptosis was significantly increased, and HUVEC tube formation was significantly decreased. In conclusion, the 2∶1 ratio of AC showed the most effective inhibition of 143B cell growth. AC can inhibit the growth and metastasis of osteosarcoma 143B cells by regulating the PI3K/Akt/HIF-1α signaling pathway, inhibiting angiogenesis and reducing cell adhesion, invasion, and migration.

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is a well-accepted therapy for atopic dermatitis (AD). However, there are currently no evidence-based guidelines integrating TCM and Western medicine for the treatment of AD, limiting the clinical application of such combined approaches. Therefore, the China Association of Chinese Medicine initiated the development of the current guideline, focusing on key issues related to the use of TCM in the treatment of AD. This guideline was developed in accordance with the principles of the guideline formulation manual published by the World Health Organization. A comprehensive review of the literature on the combined use of TCM and Western medicine to treat AD was conducted. The findings were extensively discussed by experts in dermatology and pharmacy with expertise in both TCM and Western medicine. This guideline comprises 23 recommendations across seven major areas, including TCM syndrome differentiation and classification of AD, principles and application scenarios of TCM combined with Western medicine for treating AD, outcome indicators for evaluating clinical efficacy of AD treatment, integration of TCM pattern classification and Western medicine across disease stages, daily management of AD, the use of internal TCM therapies and proprietary Chinese medicines, and TCM external treatments.

Objective To explore the value of ultrasound deep learning(DL)model for diagnosis and classification of cystocele.Methods Totally 696 female patients who underwent pelvic floor ultrasound were retrospectively collected and divided into model development dataset(n=576)and test set(n=120).The former included 432 cases of cystocele and 144 cases of non-cystocele,while the latter included 90 cases of cystocele and 30 cases of non-cystocele.Patients in model development dataset were randomly divided into training set(n=460,including 345 cases of cystocele and 115 cases of non-cystocele)and validation set(n=116,including 87 cases of cystocele and 29 cases of non-cystocele)at the ratio of 8∶2.DL model was trained and established using Vision Transformer architecture based on pelvic floor ultrasound data in training and validation sets for diagnosis and classification of cystocele(non-or Green Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ type).Taken diagnostic results of senior ultrasound physicians as standard,the diagnostic efficacy of DL model was evaluated,and its diagnostic efficacy and efficiency were compared with those of 2 junior ultrasound physicians.Results The macro average precision,F1 score,area under the curve(AUC)and overall accuracy of DL model for diagnosis and classification of cystocele in validation set was 90.84％,89.28％,0.97 and 89.66％,respectively,while in test set was 80.85％,79.92％,0.92 and 80.00％,respectively.The overall diagnostic accuracy of 2 junior ultrasound physicians for diagnosis and classification of cystocele in test set was 70.00％(84/120)and 68.33％(82/120),respectively,both lower than that of DL model(P=0.023,0.011).The diagnostic time of DL model was 0.098 s for each case,of junior ultrasound physicians was 46(36,56)s for each case,the former had better diagnostic efficacy(P＜0.001).Conclusion Ultrasound DL model could be used for diagnosis and classification of cystocele.

Aim To investigate the changes in hepatic lactylation during liver regeneration and its impact on regeneration.Methods A partial hepatectomy(PHx)mouse model was used to study liver regenera-tion.Sodium oxamate was administered intraperitoneal-ly to inhibit lactate dehydrogenase,and blood and liver tissues were collected at different time points post-sur-gery.The histopathological status was observed using HE staining.Proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PC-NA)levels were detected by immunohistochemistry.Lactylation was assessed using immunofluorescence.Liver LDH enzyme activity,lactate levels and serum alanine aminotransferase(ALT)and aspartate trans-aminase(AST)levels were measured using assay kits.Results After PHx,the liver volume of mice gradual-ly increased,returning to preoperative size on day 7.PCNA levels peaked at 48 hours post-surgery.Liver tissue lactate levels increased to approximately 1.5 times the preoperative level at 12 hours post-surgery and remained elevated until day 7.The lactylation lev-el in hepatocytes peaked at 24 hours post-surgery,gradually declined after 48 hours,and returned to pre-operative levels on day 7.Compared to the PHx group,the sodium oxamate(750 mg·kg-1)+PHx group showed significantly reduced lactylation levels in hepa-tocytes and a smaller liver regeneration volume on day 7.Conclusion Lactylation regulates hepatocyte pro-liferation and promotes liver regeneration after PHx.

Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of embolization of anterior cranial fossa dural arteriovenous fistula (ACF-DAVF) via different arterial approaches, and provide evidence for individualized treatment of ACF-DAVF. Methods:A retrospective study was performed; 25 patients with ACF-DAVF admitted to Department of Cerebrovascular Surgery, Neurosurgery Center, Zhujiang Hospital, Southern Medical University from January 2020 to December 2023 were enrolled. Vascular approaches, including the anterior cerebral artery ( n=7), facial artery ( n=3), middle meningeal artery ( n=8), ophthalmic artery ( n=6), and vein ( n=1), were selected based on angioarchitectural features and microcatheter accessibility. Fistula and proximal draining vein occlusions were confirmed by immediate post-embolization digital subtraction angiography (DSA), and perioperative complications were recorded. At a 6-month follow-up, prognoses were assessed by modified Rankin Scale (mRS), and DSA or MRA was performed to detect the recurrence of ACF-DAVF. Results:Six patients had complete embolization and 2 patients had near-total embolization of the fistula and proximal draining vein immediately after embolization via middle meningeal artery approach; 4 patients achieved complete embolization and 2 patients achieved near-total embolization via ophthalmic artery approach; 6 patients achieved complete embolization and one patient achieved near-total embolization via anterior cerebral artery approach; 3 patients achieved complete embolization via facial artery approach; one patient achieved complete embolization via venous approach. No perioperative intracranial hemorrhage or central retinal artery occlusion was noted. Follow-up for 6 months was performed in 25 patients: mRS score was 0 in 19 patients, 1 in 2 patients, and 2 in 4 patients; DSA in 19 patients and MRA in 6 patients indicated no ACF-DAVF recurrence. Conclusion:Based on the angioarchitectural features and microcatheter accessibility, individualized selection of vascular approaches for ACF-DAVF embolization can achieve better efficacy and safety.
