Objective:To construct and evaluate the predictive performance of a multiphase ultrasound radiomics model for microvascular invasion（MVI）in hepatocellular carcinoma（HCC）.Methods:A total of 126 patients with pathologically confirmed HCC were retrospectively enrolled from 4 medical centers between May 2018 and July 2025，including the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University，Shanxi Province Third People's Hospital，Changzhi People's Hospital，and the Organ Transplant Center of the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University. A total of 630 ultrasound images of the lesions in different phases were collected，from which 1 561 radiomic features were extracted. The patients from medical institutions in Shanxi Province were chosen as the training set（ n=91），and the patients from the Organ Transplant Center of the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University were chosen as the validation set（ n=35）. In the training set，37.4%（34/91）patients presented MVI（+），whereas in the validation set，54.3%（19/35）patients presented MVI（+）. Radiomics features were extracted from ultrasound images，and features related to the MVI（+）were selected through dimensionality reduction analysis. Five multiple machine learning algorithms were used to construct predictive models，which were then evaluated using an external validation set. The Radscore was calculated，and a nomogram was constructed combining Radscore with ultrasound and clinical characteristics to predict MVI. Results:The model combining radiomics features from the portal venous phase and the delay phase showed the best predictive performance in both the training and validation sets，with area under curve（AUC）values of 0.835 and 0.727，respectively. The prediction model developed using radiomics Radscore and clinical indicators could be represented and presented as a nomogram.Conclusions:The radiomics model based on multi-phase ultrasound offers a novel approach for non-invasive preoperative prediction of MVI in liver cancer. Furthermore，its integration with clinical features aids in optimizing clinical treatment strategies.

Objective:To develop rat models of oral mucosa ulcer using distinct experimental methodologies,fulfilling research requirements and adhering to the ethical standards for animal care.Methods:96 SD rats were randomly allocated into groups.The rats in control group(n=8)were regularly fed without other treatment.Those in chemical cauterization groups were treated by 20％,40％,60％of glacial acetic acid(GAA)on oral mucosa(n=8);in mechanical damage groups by 30 000 r/min high speed drill induced trauma of 10,20 and 30 mm2 respectively(n=8);in ionizing radiation groups were treated with 10,12,15,20 and 30 Gy on the mucosa respectively(n=8).After the ulcer was appeared,the morphology of the mucosa were observed,the mucosal tissue lesions were examined by HE,Masson and immunofluorescence staining,the expression of TNF-α and IL-1β were detected by qPCR and ELISA respectively,and the body conditions such as diet and body weight of the rats were observed,the pain,dis-tress and discomfor of the rats were evaluated by MORTON&Griffits Guidelines.Results:40％and 60％GAA,20 mm2 and 30 mm2 friction damage and ionizing radiation of 12 Gy or greater may induce oral mucosa ulcer with a diseas coruse of 6-7 d in SD rats.TNF-α and IL-1β mRNA expression in the damaged tissue,the related protein expression in blood serum of the rats were in-creased.MORTON&Griffits Guidelines analysis showed 40％GAA,20 mm2 friction damage and 12 Gy ionizing radiation induced the lowest scores of pain,distress and discomfort of the rats with compatible oral mocosa ulcere induced by the relevat treatment.Conclusion:40％GAA,20 mm2 of friction damage and 12 Gy of ionizing radiation can reliably establish oral mucosa ulcer models and minimize adverse effects on SD rats,and accord with ethical standards of 3R for laboratory animal.

With the popularization of 5G communication technology and the continuous upgrade of robot-assisted surgery system,telesurgery has developed rapidly.However,there are few of reports about this technique in single-port laparoscopic gynecological surgery.On April 19,2024,the surgeons at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University in Shanghai successfully implemented robot-assisted single-port laparoscopic bilateral adnexectomy for a patient who was admitted to the Naval Hospital of the Eastern Theater Command in Zhoushan,Zhejiang Province through 5G communication technology.The operation time was 90 min,intraoperative bleeding was 20 ml,and no intraoperative complications occurred.There were no adverse events caused by robots such as robot system failure and instrument failure,or adverse events caused by remote communication such as network interruption and network attack.Intraoperative user datagram protocol(UDP)real-time monitoring data showed an average delay of 108 ms(range,105-111 ms)and a packet loss rate of 0.04%.The surgeons had a slight sense of delay when the operation amplitude was too large.There was no obvious stalling which affected the process of the operation.The patient was able to move around on the first day after surgery,and the catheter was removed.No postoperative complications occurred.The patient was discharged from the hospital on the second day after surgery.Postoperative pathological results revealed left fallopian tube ovarian serous cystadenofibroma,fallopian tubal tissue;right fallopian tube ovarian,sent for examination as ovarian and fallopian tube tissue.There were no complaints of discomfort during reexamination one month after surgery,and the umbilical incision healed well.This case is an attempt of telesurgery in the field of gynecology,and provides experiences for the further development of this technique.

To analyze the positivity rate and titer of antinuclear antibody (ANA), as well as nuclear pattern and target antigen of ANA in healthy pregnant women during early pregnancy in Qingdao area. A prospective cohort study design was used to include a total of 9 528 healthy pregnant women registered at the Women and Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Qingdao University from March 2023 to June 2024.Indirect immunofluorescence assay (IIF) was used to detect ANA, its titer and cell staining pattern. Fifteen specific antibodies were tested using the magnetic bar code immunofluorescent luminescence method. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the risk factors of pregnancy with autoimmune disease(AID). The results showed that among 9 528 pregnant women in early pregnancy, 1 346 cases (14.1%) were positive of ANA, including 1 011 cases with a titer of 1∶100 (10.6%), 236 cases (2.5%) with a titer of 1∶320, and 99 cases (1.0%) were detected at a titer >1∶320. Among the 1 346 ANA-positive pregnant women, nuclear granular type accounted for the highest proportion (483 cases, 35.9%), followed by speckled type (347 cases, 25.8%) and cytoplasmic type (176 cases, 13.1%).Then, pregnant women with ANA titers ≥1∶100 were detected 15 specific antibodies.Anti-SSA was tested in 121 cases accounted for the majority, followed by 110 cases with anti-Ro-52, 56 cases with anti-SSB, 51 cases with anti-mitochondrial M2 subtype antibodies and 37 cases with anti-centromere B. In conclusion,in healthy pregnant women in Qingdao area, ANA positivity rate was 14.1%, and the titer of ANA was mainly at 1∶100.The predominant nuclear patterns were nuclear granular and speckled types.The specific autoantibodies were mainly anti-SSA antibodies and anti-Ro-52 antibodies.The detection of ANA and specific autoantibodies is of great significance for early prediction, diagnosis, and intervention of autoimmune diseases during pregnancy.

Objective:To analyze the prognostic outcomes of 1 147 patients who underwent liver transplantation at Qingdao University Affiliated Hospital and to summarize measures to enhance the efficacy of liver transplantation.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical and follow-up data of 1 147 liver transplant patients at Qingdao University Affiliated Hospital.Results:The overall postoperative 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates for the 1 147 liver transplant patients were 87.20%, 73.40%, and 65.60%, respectively. The survival rates for benign disease liver transplant recipients were 88.01%, 84.98%, and 81.39% at 1, 3, and 5 years post-transplant, respectively, compared to recipients transplanted for malignancies of 78.11%, 64.41%, and 60.06% (all P<0.001). Among the mid vs more recent period, patients' 1-year and 3-year postoperative survival rates were 84.20%, 70.80% vs 90.50%, 71.70%, respectively,significantly in favor of recently enrolled patients ( P=0.022). In the complex surgery group, patients' 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates were 82.70%, 65.50%, 56.70%, while in less complicated group, it was 89.00%, 76.50%, 69.20% ( P<0.001). The primary causes of death for benign disease recipients were multi-organ failure (4.1%), while in recipients with malignant disease primary cause of death was tumor recurrence (23.7%). Postoperative complications included primary graft dysfunction, delayed graft function recovery, portal vein thrombosis, hepatic artery thrombosis, biliary stricture, post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder, and graft-versus-host disease, with occurrence rates of 1.05%, 6.89%, 1.92%, 0.44%, 2.00%, 0.61%, and 0.44%, respectively. Conclusions:With the continuous improvement in surgical techniques and perioperative care levels, the 3-year survival rate of recipients at our center has increased. Malignant diseases and complex liver transplantation remain crucial factors affecting recipient prognosis, highlighting the need to further enhance comprehensive treatment capabilities for patients with malignant diseases and complex surgeries.

Objective To analyze pathogenic microorganisms and related clinical features in patients with acute cholangitis.Methods The pathogenic microorganism culture results and related clinical data of 229 patients with acute cholangitis in People's Hospital of Haining from 2019 to 2022 were collected and analyzed.Results Among 229 patients,160(69.87%)patients were positive in bile culture,of which 58 patients were infected with multiple bacteria.A total of 227 strains of pathogenic bacteria were isolated from 160 positive bile specimens,of which 136(59.91%)strains were Gram-negative,79(34.80%)strains were Gram-positive and 12(5.29%)strains were fungi.Escherichia coli mixed with Enterococcus faecium was the most common infection(10/58,17.24%).The susceptibility rate of Gram-negative bacteria to amikacin and tigecycline was the highest,and Gram-positive bacteria were highly sensitive to linezolid,vancomycin and tigecycline.Previous biliary surgery history and cirrhosis were independent risk factors for biliary tract infection(P<0.05).Cirrhosis was an independent risk factor for co-infection(P<0.05).Conclusion The pathogenic microorganisms of acute cholangitis are complex in distribution and have some resistance to common antibiotics.Clinicians should pay close attention to patients with acute cholangitis who have a history of biliary tract surgery,cirrhosis and chronic renal insufficiency,and rationally select initial antibiotics.

Objective:To investigate the change in 25-hydroxy vitamin D (25-OHD) levels in hospitalized newborns in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) between baseline and vitamin D supplementation, and to explore the effect of different levels of vitamin D on the complications.Method:A prospective study was conducted on the newborns admitted to NICU at Jingzhou Hospital Affiliated to Yangtze University within 72 h after birth from January 2021 to January 2022. Vitamin D supplementation was initiated after the detection of basal 25-OHD levels within 72 h after birth. Serum 25-OHD levels were measured after 2, 4, and 6 weeks of supplementation. Newborns were categorized into four groups according to the basal 25-OHD level: sufficient, insufficient, deficient, and severely deficient groups. The analysis of variants, independent sample t-test, paired sample t-test, Chi-square test, or Fisher's exact probability method were employed to evaluate the differences in basal 25-OHD levels among newborns with different clinical conditions and gestational ages, as well as the variation in 25-OHD levels before and after supplementation among the four groups. Furthermore, differences in the morbidity and mortality among different basal status groups were analyzed. Result:(1) During the study period, 626 cases met the inclusion criteria, and after excluding seven cases, 619 infants were ultimately included in the study with serum 25-OHD level within 72 h being (21.8±10.1) ng/ml. There were 134 cases (21.6%) in the sufficient group, 208 cases (33.6%) in the insufficient group, 186 cases (30.0%) in the deficient group, and 91 cases (14.7%) in the severe deficient group. (2) No statistically significant differences were observed in the basal 25-OHD levels regardless of the genders, gestational age, birth month, number of fetuses or small for gestational age (all P>0.05). (3) Among all infants, 158 cases continued to supplement vitamin D for two weeks, 64 cases continued for four weeks, and 13 cases continued for six weeks, with all of them discharged within eight weeks. Compared with the basal 25-OHD levels, there were no statistically significant differences in the serum 25-OHD levels among the sufficient, insufficient, deficient, and severely deficient groups after two weeks of supplementation [(37.1±9.3) vs. (36.8±4.9) ng/ml, (24.7±7.2) vs. (24.7±2.9) ng/ml, (16.0±7.6) vs. (15.4±2.9) ng/ml, (8.1±5.6) vs. (7.6±1.4) ng/ml; t=0.18, 0.04, 0.65 and 0.48, respectively; all P>0.05]. After four weeks of supplementation, however, the serum 25-OHD levels in the four groups were higher than those before supplementation [(40.0±5.2) vs. (35.8±3.9) ng/ml, (29.7±6.4) vs. (24.5±2.9) ng/ml, (20.3±7.1) vs. (15.6±3.0) ng/ml, (14.9±7.3) vs. (6.5±2.3) ng/ml; t=2.13, 2.66, 5.08 and 7.64, respectively; all P<0.05]. (4) The incidence of hypocalcemia [23.1% (21/91) vs. 9.7% (18/186)] and neonatal respiratory distress syndrome [15.4% (14/91) vs. 3.2% (6/186)] were higher in the severely deficient group than those in the deficient group ( χ2=9.07 and 13.49, both P<0.008). No statistically significant differences were observed in the incidence of neonatal sepsis, neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, retinopathy of prematurity, and mortality among the four groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:The insufficiency of 25-OHD levels and vitamin D deficiency were prevalent in NICU neonates. Vitamin D status did not significantly differ among newborns with varying gestational ages. A prolonged period of sustained vitamin D supplementation may be required to elevate the serum 25-OHD level. The incidence of hypocalcemia and neonatal respiratory distress syndrome are higher in newborns with severe vitamin D deficiency.
