Objective To observe the value of SimGrid(SG)and S-Enhance(SE)for improving image quality of low-dose X-ray films in children.Methods Data of 344 children in intensive care unit who underwent 410 times bedside X-ray examinations,including 290 times of chest X-ray,51 of abdominal X-ray and 69 of chest and abdominal combined X-ray were enrolled.SG and SE were respectively used for post-processing,and the quality of post-processed images were analyzed.Results Among 410 SG post-processing images,250 images were classified as 2-point,147 as 1-point and 13 as 0-point.SG could significantly improve image quality of children≥1 year and body mass≥10 kg(all P＜0.05),with better ability for displaying bones,trachea,peripheral blood vessels,foreign objects,psoas major muscle and intestinal gas(all P＜0.05).Among 410 SE post-processing images,250 images were classified as 2-point,58 as 1-point and 102 of 0-point.SE could significantly improve image quality of children≥0.5 years and with body mass＞4 kg(all P＜0.05),with better ability for displaying bones,trachea,large blood vessels,peripheral vessels,heart posterior blood vessels and foreign objects(all P＜0.05).Conclusion SG could significantly improve displaying of bones,trachea,peripheral blood vessels,foreign objects,psoas major muscle and intestinal gas in children≥1 year and body mass≥10 kg,while SE could improve displaying of bones,trachea,large blood vessels,peripheral blood vessels,heart posterior blood vessels and foreign objects in children aged≥0.5 years and body mass＞4 kg on low-dose X-ray films.

Objective To determine the correlation and agreement of sacral ratio(SR)measured by lateral and anteroposterior radiographs in patients with anorectal malformation(ARM).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the anteroposterior and lateral radiographs images of the sacral vertebrae of patients with ARM.All SR values were measured by three radiologists.Pearson's correlation coefficient were used to assess the correlation between the SR measured by lateral and anteroposterior radiographs.A weighted Kappa statistic was used to measure the agreement between how the anteroposterior and lateral SR categorized observations into risk groups.Results Of the 385 ARM patients,25 patients whose radiographs image quality was insufficient to calculate SR value were excluded.For a given pair of measurements,the mean lateral SR value was 0.08 units greater than the anteroposterior SR value[95%confidence interval(CI)0.06-0.09,P<0.01].Anteroposterior and lateral images had a moderate positive correlation(r=0.79,95%CI 0.73-0.79,P<0.01)and moderate agreement in risk categorization(Kappa=0.62,P<0.01).Anteroposterior and lateral readings conducted by all three radiologists had excellent inter-rater reliability with intraclass correlation coefficient(ICC)for anteroposterior and lateral SR of 0.88 and 0.84,respectively.Conclusion Even though the anteroposterior and lateral SR values have moderate positive correlation,the mean SR value determined by images in the lateral is 0.08 units greater than the anteroposterior.Anteroposterior and lateral SR value conclude different risk categories relatively often.The SR values measured by lateral sacral radiographs are more clinically significant than those measured by anteroposterior radiographs.

Objective:Survival analysis of cancers' incidence data in Tianjin from 2010 to 2016 was conducted to provide the basis for formulating and evaluating regional health policies on cancer prevention and treatment.Methods:Registration data in Tianjin were used between January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2016 and patients were followed-up till 31 December, 2021. Life-table method was used to calculate the observed survival rate and Edered Ⅱ was used to calculate the relative survival rate. The data were stratified by year, gender, age group and cancer sites. Difference in survival curves between group was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method and Log rank test. Joinpoint regression model was used to analyze the trend change.Results:The 5-year relative survival rates of cancer were 41.92% to 53.65% from 2010 to 2016 for residents in Tianjin, with an increasing trend ( t=4.81 ,P=0.005), and the average was 48.56%. The survival rate of females was higher than that of males (57.71%vs. 39.20%), and the survival rate of urban residents was higher than that of rural residents (49.38% vs. 47.24%). The 5-year relative survival rates were 63.14%, 78.39%, 58.25% and 32.67% in 0-14, 15-44, 45-64 and 65 and above age groups, respectively. The median relative survival times of all cancer were 2.34 to 6.00 years from 2010 to 2016 in Tianjin, with an increasing trend ( t=3.86, P=0.012). The average of median relative survival times was 4.11 years. The median survival time of females was longer than that of males (11.99 years vs. 2.03 years), and the time of urban residents were longer than that of rural residents (4.60 years vs. 3.43 years). The median relative survival time were 12.07, 11.92 and 1.34 years in 15-44, 45-64 and 65 and above age groups, respectively. Conclusions:The cumulative survival rate of cancer increased significantly from 2010 to 2016 in Tianjin, indicating that the prevention and treatment effect of cancer is obvious. The focus should be on male, rural areas, higher age group, and targeted prevention and treatment measures should be taken to lung, esophagus, liver, gallbladder and pancreatic cancer.

Objective:To explore the trends and distribution of liver cancer between sexes, ages, and urban-rural areas in Tianjin, China from 1999 to 2021, and provide data for targeted prevention and control strategies of liver cancer in Tianjin.Methods:Liver cancer mortality data of Tianjin during 1999-2021 were from the Tianjin population based mortality surveillance system maintained by the Tianjin Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the population data of permanent Tianjin residents were from Tianjin Municipal Public Security Bureau. Liver cancer mortality, years of life lost (YLL), years lived with disability (YLD), and disability adjusted life years (DALY) were calculated using the cause of death surveillance data collected by Tianjin Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The distributions of these data among residents of different sexes, ages, and regions were analyzed. Segi's world standard population was used for standardization. Joinpoint regression was used for trend analysis on the mortality rate of liver cancer and the disease burden.Results:The liver cancer mortality rate in Tianjin decreased by 46.75% from 1999 to 2021, with distinct phased characteristics. From 1999 to 2010, the age-sex-standardized mortality rate (SMR) decreased from 12.62/100 000 to 11.64/100 000 with an annual percent change (APC) of -1.32% ( P=0.003). From 2010 to 2021, the SMR decreased from 11.64/100 000 to 6.72/100 000 (APC=-3.89%, P＜0.001). The age-sex-standardized DALY rates(SDR) decreased by 50.63% from 1999 to 2021, also with distinct phased characteristics. From 1999 to 2010, the SDR decreased from 388.67/100 000 to 349.38/100 000 (APC=-1.35%, P=0.002). From 2010 to 2021, the SDR decreased from 349.38/100 000 to 191.88/100 000 (APC=-4.43%, P＜0.001). The liver cancer mortality rate declined most rapidly in the age group under 45 years; the APC for those under 35 years was -5.07% ( P＜0.001), and for those aged 35-44 years, the APC was 0.63% ( P=0.707) and -8.21% ( P＜0.001) before and after 2007, respectively. Both SMR and SDR were significantly higher in males than in females ( P＜0.01). Both SMR and SDR were significantly higher in urban areas than in rural areas from 1999 to 2007 ( P＜0.05), but they became similar after 2008. Liver cancer DALY are predominantly YLL, accounting for 99%. The median age of liver cancer deaths in Tianjin during 1999-2021 was 64-68 years old, with males lower than females ( P＜0.05), and rural areas lower than urban areas ( P＜0.05), generally showing an increasing trend (1999-2014: APC=0.11%, P=0.047; 2014-2021: APC=0.51%, P=0.005). Conclusions:Liver cancer mortality rate and disease burden decreased from 1999 to 2021 in Tianjin, with an especially accelerated decline after 2010. Further efforts to reduce liver cancer mortality in Tianjin are needed, and special attention should be focused on the elderly, male, and rural residents.

Based on the current situation of patients with retinal diseases in China and the clear requirements of the " 14th Five-Year Plan for Eye Health (2021-2025)" to strengthen the construction of the prevention and control system for retinal diseases, experts in the field of retinal diseases in China have conducted in-depth and comprehensive thematic discussions, and used the modified Delphi method for collective decision-making and opinion solicitation, ultimately forming consensus and consistent guidance suggestions for the management of chronic diseases of retinal diseases that are in line with China's national conditions. This consensus includes key content such as definitions, treatment plans, and follow-up frequency for the management of chronic diseases of the fundus. It clearly proposes relevant measures to improve the management process of chronic diseases of the fundus, and elaborates on the advantages and feasibility of establishing an online remote platform for the management of chronic diseases of the fundus, in order to assist doctors in formulating personalized treatment plans and ensure that patients receive standardized treatment and follow-up. This consensus will provide guidance and reference for the management of chronic diseases and long-term standardized diagnosis and treatment of major fundus diseases in China.
