Objective To analyze the correlation between lesion volume,lesion mass,and maximum lesion diameter in the assessment of advanced hepatocarcinoma with lung metastasis,and to evaluate the application value of total volume response and total mass response of lung metastatic lesions in efficacy assessment.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the CT imaging data of 20 patients clinically confirmed with hepatocarcinoma and lung metastases,followed by subsequent follow-up to monitor their survival outcomes.Volume measurement software was used to measure the volume of lesions before and after treatment.We recored lesion diameter,volume measurements and CT values,calculated the mass of the lesions.The correlation between lesion volume,mass and diameter was analyzed,as well as the correlation between the change rates of volume,mass and lesion diameter.Additionally,the total volume and total mass of all lesions were calculated.The correlation between the change rates of total volume/total mass and the change rate of pulmonary lesion diameter under the RECIST 1.1 criteria,as well as the correlation with changes in patients'tumor markers,were analyzed.Furthermore,the overall volume response and overall mass response of lesions were evaluated based on changes in total volume and total mass,and their consistencies with the RECIST 1.1 criteria for efficacy evaluation were analyzed.Finally,univariate Cox regression analysis was performed to explore the association between these variables and patient survival outcomes.Results There was strong correlation between lesion volume,mass and tumor diameter(r=0.771,0.775),between the rate of change in mass and the rate of change in lesion diameter(r=0.846),and between the rates of change in total volume/total mass and the rate of change in pulmonary lesion diameter under the RECIST 1.1 criteria(r=0.800,0.896).The correlation between the rates of change in total volume/total mass and patients'tumor markers was not statistically significant.There was moderate correlation between the rate of change in volume and the rate of change in lesion diameter(r=0.692).The evaluation results of total volume response and total mass response for pulmonary lesions in advanced hepatocarcinoma with lung metastasis were generally consistent with the RECIST 1.1 criteria(Kappa=0.486,0.426).Univariate Cox regression analysis revealed that total lesion volume(P=0.047)and total lesion mass(P=0.049)were independent prognostic factors for survival outcomes.Conclusion Lesion volume,mass,and diameter,as well as their respective change rates,were found to be interrelated.Furthermore,total lesion volume and total lesion mass were identified as independent prognostic factors for survival outcomes.The total volume response and total mass response are promising evaluation methods in evaluating the efficacy of lung metastasis of hepatocarcinoma,which are different from the RECIST 1.1 evaluation criteria.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of MRI radiomics analysis in mild carpal tunnel syndrome(CTS).Methods Seventy patients with mild CTS and 86 healthy volunteers who underwent wrist MRI examination were retrospectively selected.MRI fat-suppressed proton density weighted imaging(PDWI)were imported into 3D Slicer software,and the region of interest(ROI)delineation was performed by two radiologists independently.The 830 radiomics parameters were extracted,including first-order fea-tures,shape features,texture features,and wavelet-transform features.Radiomics parameter selection was performed through observer intraclass correlation coefficient(ICC),correlation analysis,and multivariate logistic regression.Five diagnostic models were estab-lished,including logistic regression,support vector machine,naive Bayes,decision tree,and random forest.Receiver operating charac-teristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the diagnostic efficiency of the models.Results Seven radiomics features were selected for inclusion in the diagnostic models.The logistic regression model demonstrated the best performance,with an area under the curve(AUC)of 0.91[95%confidence interval(CI)0.86-0.96],a sensitivity of 88.63%,and a specificity of 89.00%in the training group.In the test group,the AUC was 0.92(95%CI 0.85-0.97),with a sensitivity of 90.48%and a specificity of 84.62%.Conclusion MRI radiomics analysis can be used to diagnose mild CTS,and the logistic regression model demonstrates superior diagnostic per-formance.

Soy is a vital source of plant carbohydrates.However,it poses significant allergenic risks,particularly to young children and animals.Among the various proteins in soy,β-conglycinin,which con-stitutes approximately 30％of total soy carbohydrates,is a primary allergen.Undigested β-conglycinin can lead to intestinal damage by inhibiting cell growth,disrupting the cytoskeleton,and inducing apopto-sis.It can also enter the lymphatic and circulatory systems,triggering allergic reactions.Conventional ELISA methods for detecting β-conglycinin rely on polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies,which are limited by their large molecular weight,difficulty in accessing the protein core,and sensitivity to acidic and bas-ic conditions.To address these limitations,this study aimed to develop nanobodies(Nbs)against β-con-glycinin.Nbs,derived from the variable regions of heavy-chain antibodies found in camelids,have a mo-lecular weight approximately one-tenth that of conventional antibodies.They offer advantages such as small size,stable structure,high specificity,and strong affinity.A female alpacas was immunized five times using β-conglycinin,which showed a heavy chain antibody potency of 1∶16 000 by ELISA.Pe-ripheral blood lymphocytes were subsequently isolated and total RNA was extracted.The variable region of the heavy-chain antibody was amplified via PCR,and recombinant plasmids were constructed and transformed into the E.coli competency strain ER2738.The resulting library contained about 3.5×108 CFU/mL,which increased to 1.15×1012 PFU/mL after phage rescue,with a 100％Nbs gene insertion rate,indicating high diversity.Its Nbs phage output was significantly enriched by four rounds of solid-phase elution with an enrichment rate of 155.9.Four rounds of solid-phase panning yielded 35 positive clones,all of which shared the same amino acid sequence upon sequencing.The selected Nb was ex-pressed in a prokaryotic system,and its binding ability to β-conglycinin was confirmed using Western blotting and ELISA.The results demonstrated excellent specificity and affinity.This research lays the groundwork for developing a rapid and efficient detection method for β-conglycinin using Nbs,potentially enhancing food safety and allergen management.

Objective To explore the applicative value of blue Laser imaging combined with magnifying endoscope(BLI+ME)system for the lesion of esophagogastric junction(EGJ).Methods Retrospective study endoscopic and pathological reported during February 2022 to February 2024.6 803 patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled.They were divided into BLI+ME group(2 931 cases)and white light imaging group(WLI group,3 872 cases)according to the different gastroscopy types used in the examination.Finally,the EGJ biopsy rate,positive biopsy rate,detection rate of various lesions and early diagnosis rate between the two groups were compared.Results The biopsy rate of the BLI+ME group was 27.60%,the positive biopsy rate was 68.73%,and the detection rate of all the lesions was 20.74%,the detection rate of non-cancerous lesions was 20.30%,the detection rate of early cancer was 0.10%,the detection rate of non-cancerous lesions above the dentate line was 5.53%,the detection rate of non-cancerous lesions below the dentate line was 14.77%,the detection rate of cancerous lesions below the dentate line was 0.27%,significantly higher than those of the WLI group,which the biopsy rate was 17.74%,the positive biopsy rate was 60.26%,and the detection rate of all the lesions was 11.90%,the detection rate of non-cancerous lesions was 11.67%,the detection rate of early cancer was 0.00%,the detection rate of non-cancerous lesions above the dentate line was 3.49%,the detection rate of non-cancerous lesions below the dentate line was 8.19%,the detection rate of cancerous lesions below the dentate line was 0.05%,the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion The BLI+ME system can enhance the biopsy rate,positive biopsy rate,the detection rate of all the lesions,early cancer detection rate,non-cancerous lesions detection rate above and below the dentate line,and cancerous lesions detection rate below the dentate line at the EGJ.It is helpful to improve the early diagnosis rate and early treatment rate of EGJ.It is worthy of clinical application.

As the first defense of respiratory system,airway epi-thelial cells(AECs)play an important role in separating the re-spiratory internal and external environment.They are essential for the natural immune function.Small airway lesions are an im-portant early pathology of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD),when AECs are exposed to harmful particles or gases for a long time,the epithelial barrier is damaged,and the signa-ling pathways which involved in differentiation,repair,and in-flammatory are disordered,resulting in epithelial cell cycle stag-nation and accelerated aging.A number of studies have sugges-ted that AECs of COPD patients express high levels of aging markers,suggesting that senescence of AECs is closely related to COPD.This review discusses the potential mechanisms of AECs senescence in COPD,the impact of AECs senescence on the de-velopment and severity of the disease,and highlights potential targets for modulating cellular senescence in airway epithelium as a therapeutic approach in COPD.
