Colorectal cancer stands as a leading cause of cancer-related morbidity and mortality globally,with liver metastases being a significant determinant of patient prognosis.Conventional diagnostic methods,includ-ing imaging studies and biomarker testing,frequently exhibit inadequate sensitivity and specificity,underscoring the necessity for more advanced technologies.Recent advancements in genomics,transcriptomics,proteomics,me-tabolomics,and epigenomics have revolutionized our understanding of the biological mechanisms driving colorectal cancer.These methodologies enable comprehensive analyses of genetic mutations,gene expression profiles,protein modifications,and metabolic reprogramming,all of which are pivotal to the metastatic process.This article high-lights the advanced capabilities of artificial intelligence(AI)technologies in processing complex multi-omics data,thereby enhancing diagnostic accuracy and supporting personalized treatment strategies.It also addresses the challenges AI encounters in multi-omics analyses,such as ensuring data quality,improving model interpretability,and facilitating clinical translation.Additionally,it explores the potential integration of emerging technologies like single-cell sequencing and spatial omics into large-scale,multicenter studies to further enhance the clinical utility of these tools.

Objective:To explore the direct effect of perceived social support on self-advocacy and the mediating effect of active coping strategies in breast cancer patients.Methods:A convenience sampling method was used to select 240 breast cancer patients hospitalized at Qilu Hospital of Shandong University from April 2023 to April 2024. General information questionnaire, the Female Self-Advocacy Scale in Cancer Survivorship (FSACS), the Simplified Ways of Coping Questionnaire (SWCQ), and the Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS) were used to collect the data.Results:The effective response rate for the questionnaires was 93.75% (225/240). The total score for FSACS in 225 breast cancer patients was (75.36±9.88), the active coping score for SWCQ was (21.68±6.07), and the total score for PSSS was (55.63±8.04). The mediating effect analysis revealed that perceived social support had a direct positive predictive effect on self-advocacy ( β=0.420, P<0.01). Active coping played a mediating role in the relationship between perceived social support and self-advocacy, with a mediating effect value of 0.210, a 95% confidence interval of 0.112 to 0.318, and the mediating effect accounting for 33.33% of the total effect. Conclusions:Perceived social support not only positively affects the self-advocacy level of breast cancer patients but also indirectly influences it through the mediating role of active coping. Medical staff should emphasize improving perceived social support levels and encourage patients to adopt active coping strategies to enhance their self-advocacy.

Objective To generalize and summarize the types,content elements,outcome measures,application effects,and safety monitoring of the infant-cued behavior-based feeding,so as to provide guidance for the clinical application and research in the future.Methods The literature was retrieved from PubMed,CINAHL,CNKI,and Wanfang Data-base,with a retrieval timeframe from database establishment to August 20,2024.The included literature was sum-marized and analyzed.Results A total of 28 studies were included,of which 15 were randomized controlled trials,7 were quasi-experimental studies,and 6 were observational studies.The infant-cued behavior-based feeding pattern could be categorized as ad libitum feeding,demand feeding,semi-demand feeding,and behavioral cue-based feeding.The content elements included assessment,supporting strategies,and advancement of oral feeding.The infant-cued behavior-based feeding pattern had a positive impact on feeding and developmental outcomes,immune function,rate of complications and length of hospital stay in preterm infants.The safety monitoring consisted of heart rate,blood oxygen saturation,blood sugar,and daily weight gain.Conclusion It is beneficial to implement the infant-cued behavior-based feeding pattern in preterm infants,which leads to better clinical outcomes.To support its implementation in clinical practice,we need to validate and enhance the application value of the feeding pattern in the future by concentrating on clinically individual differences,refining feeding intervention programs,improving effect evaluation and safety monitoring.

Objective To explore the protective mechanism of Zuogui Jiangtang Jieyu Formula(ZGF)on synaptic damage of hippocampal neurons based on leukocyte mono-immunoglobulin-like receptor 3(CD300f)/glucose transporter 1(GLUT1)signal-mediated microglial glucose metabolism in rats with diabetes-related depression.Methods Eighty male SD rats were randomly selected using random number table method,with 10 rats serving as the normal group.The remaining 70 rats were fed a high-fat diet for 4 weeks and then injected once with 38 mg/kg of streptozotocin via the tail vein to replicate the diabetes rat model.Sixty rats were screened and successfully modeled,which were randomly divided into the model,CD300f blocker,CD300f agonist,metformin+fluoxetine(metformin 0.18 g/kg+fluoxetine 1.8 mg/kg),and ZGF high-and low-dose(20.52 and 10.26 g/kg,respectively)groups using random number table method.In addition to the normal group,the rats in the other groups underwent chronic unpredictable mild stress combined with isolation feeding for 28 days to replicate the diabetes-related depression rat model.The metformin+fluoxetine and ZGF high-and low-dose groups were subjected to continuous intragastrial administration for 14 days after the second week of modeling.The normal and model groups were administered an equal amount of distilled water by gavage.The CD300f blocker group and agonist group received microinjection into the hippocampus,with injection of myeloid cell trigger receptor inhibitory factor(CLM1,2 μg/kg)and immunoglobulin Fc surface protein(Fcγ,5 μg/kg)once a week,respectively.Depression-like behavior in rats was evaluated using open-field and forced swimming tests after the intervention.Biochemical analysis was used to detect the glucose,lactic acid,and adenosine diphosphate(ADP)/adenosine triphosphate(ATP)ratio contents.The insulin,5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT),and dopamine(DA)levels in the hippocampus were detected using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Immunofluorescence was used to detect the average fluorescence intensity of CD300f,GLUT1,regulating synaptic membrane wxocytosis 3(RIMS3),and synapse-associated protein 102(SAP102)in hippocampal tissue.Western blotting was used to detect the CD300f,GLUT1,RIMS3,and SAP102 protein expression levels in the hippocampus.The synaptic damage of hippocampal neurons was observed using Nissl staining and transmission electron microscope.Results Compared with the normal group,the model group showed a decrease in the total active distance in the open-field test and an increase in forced swimming immobility time,with an increase in glucose and lactic acid contents and ADP/ATP ratio,whereas a decrease in insulin,5-HT,and DA levels was observed in the hippocampus.The average fluorescence intensity and relative protein expression levels of CD300f,GLUT1,RIMS3,and SAP102 in hippocampal tissue decreased(P<0.05),and the synaptic ultrastructure of hippocampal neurons was damaged.Compared with the model group,depression-like behavioral changes,glucose metabolism,and monoamine neurotransmitter imbalance were alleviated in the CD300f agonist group and ZGF high-and low-dose group(P<0.05).The average fluorescence intensity and relative protein expression levels of CD300f,GLUT1,RIMS3,and SAP102 in the hippocampus of the CD300f agonist group and the ZGF high-dose group were all increased(P<0.05),and synaptic damage was alleviated.The abnormal levels of glucose,lactate,ADP/ATP,5-HT,and CD300f protein expression were aggravated in the CD300f blocker group(P<0.05),and synaptic damage was aggravated.Conclusion ZGF can alleviate glucose metabolism disorders in hippocampal microglia and synaptic damage in hippocampal neurons in rats with diabetes-related depression.Its mechanism may be related to regulating the CD300f/GLUT1 signaling pathway.
