Gorham-Stout disease(GSD) is a rare osteolytic disorder characterized by spontaneous and progressive osteolysis, along with abnormal angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis, with no new bone formation. We present a case of a 15-year-old female admitted due to " recurrent right leg pain for 5 years, 11 months after undergoing right femoral fracture surgery". Through comprehensive integration of the patient's clinical phenotype, laboratory tests, imaging findings, pathological examinations, and molecular biological test results, GSD was considered highly likely. A multidisciplinary treatment approach was conducted, including a combination of zoledronic acid and sirolimus to inhibit osteolysis, along with rehabilitation training and orthopedic intervention, providing a personalized and comprehensive treatment strategy.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a prevalent and life-threatening clinical syndrome characterised by a rapid decline in renal function and diverse pathological etiologies. The condition has been demonstrated to be associated with elevated mortality rates and an increased risk of progression to chronic kidney disease. At present, clinicians depend heavily on conventional functional markers, such as serum creatinine and urine output, for the diagnosis and staging of the disease. It is evident that these conventional indicators characteristically manifest a considerable temporal delay and only undergo modification subsequent to considerable tissue damage. This severely restricts the timeframe for early detection and timely therapeutic intervention. Furthermore, standard markers fail to provide specific biological information regarding the underlying cellular injury mechanisms. The utilisation of advanced probe technologies in molecular imaging offers a robust alternative to overcome these inherent diagnostic limitations.This comprehensive review systematically evaluates recent progress in the design and application of two primary categories of molecular imaging tools for acute kidney disease, specifically reactive probes and enzyme-activated probes. Reactive probes are engineered to specifically interact with redox-active chemical species, including hydrogen peroxide, peroxynitrite, hypochlorous acid, and sulfur dioxide. Because oxidative stress constitutes a primary early event in acute renal tubular damage, these probes enable researchers and clinicians to visualize early cellular injury and radical accumulation well before global renal functional decline becomes evident. We discuss the application of these reactive probes across multiple imaging modalities including fluorescence imaging, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET), and photoacoustic techniques. Photoacoustic imaging combines high spatial resolution with deep tissue penetration and has successfully demonstrated the ability to provide diagnostic alerts up to 12 h before any detectable rise in serum creatinine levels. Additionally, specific reactive probes have shown promising translational potential when tested by high-throughput screening in clinical human urine samples. Enzyme-activated probes target the specific catalytic activity of disease-relevant enzymes. These include well-documented renal tubular structural biomarkers such as NAG, GGT, and ALP, along with apoptosis-related caspases and specific nitroreductases. By responding only to enzymatic cleavage, these tools provide highly specific and pathology-directed imaging readouts. Recent structural design strategies in this field have advanced significantly beyond single-enzyme detection. Researchers are now focusing on sophisticated dual-target recognition to minimize background noise, multimodal integration to cross-validate imaging signals, and theranostic applications where probes simultaneously deliver diagnostic feedback and therapeutic agents to injured tissues. Nanotechnology serves as a fundamental enabler for realizing these advanced probe functions. By precisely optimizing nanoparticle parameters such as hydrodynamic size, surface charge, and targeting ligands, researchers can achieve amplified signal output, highly precise kidney delivery, and protection against premature degradation in the systemic circulation. For example, modifying surface charges can significantly enhance the active uptake of nanoprobes by damaged renal tubular epithelial cells.While preclinical probe development has progressed rapidly, moving these technologies into routine clinical practice remains a major challenge. We analyze the translational feasibility and current obstacles from biological, technological, and regulatory perspectives. Although biological targets such as KIM-1, FAP, and ALP have been validated in extensive patient cohorts, practical barriers severely limit their immediate clinical application. These obstacles involve complex changes in in vivo pharmacokinetics. During an acute injury episode, the extreme drop in the glomerular filtration rate alters probe clearance and can cause unwanted systemic accumulation or confusing background imaging signals. Other major hurdles include a lack of comprehensive long-term toxicity data and the absence of standardized manufacturing protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency. Future successful translation will require rigorous multi-center clinical studies to confirm the true diagnostic value of these probes over traditional markers. Researchers must also establish strict standardization of imaging procedures and comprehensive safety evaluations. Ultimately, this review provides a thorough reference framework for designing clinically translatable molecular probes and building a precision diagnostic imaging system for acute kidney injury.

Objective In order to understand the current resistance status of Aedes albopictus(Ae. albopictus) adult population to commonly used insecticides and the resistance dynamics development in Zhejiang Province and provide a theoretical basis for the scientific and rational use of hygienic insecticides. Methods Resistance determination was carried out using the diagnostic dose method(GB/T 26347-2010)recommended by WHO in the adult mosquito contact cylinder method to monitor the resistance of Ae. albopictus field populations in 11 cities and districts in Zhejiang Province in 2024. Results The monitoring result showed that adult Ae. albopictus in 11 areas were resistant or suspected resistant populations to both cis-cypermethrin and permethrin; suspected and resistant populations to the organophosphate insecticide malathion were as high as 81.82%; while suspected resistance to the carbamate insecticide residual carbofuran accounted for 45.45%, and the rest of the monitoring sites were sensitive to it. Conclusions The result suggest that the generalized resistance of Ae. albopictus populations to pyrethroids and organophosphorus insecticides in the field in Zhejiang Province needs to be highly emphasized. In future mosquito vector and mosquito-borne disease control, insecticides should be selected based on the resistance monitoring information, while following scientific guidelines for insecticide use.

ObjectiveMigraine is a leading neurological disorder and the fourth most common cause of years lived with disability worldwide, affecting nearly 116 million individuals. Although pharmacological treatments are available, their efficacy is often limited by side effects and variable response rates. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) over the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) offers a safe, non-invasive alternative for migraine management. However, the neurophysiological mechanisms, particularly how rTMS modulates local cortical excitability and distributed pain-related circuits, remain poorly understood. Elucidating these mechanisms is essential for optimizing treatment protocols and improving clinical outcomes. MethodsThis study employed concurrent transcranial magnetic stimulation and electroencephalography (TMS-EEG) to investigate neuroplastic and neurocircuitry mechanisms of DLPFC-rTMS in migraine. Study 1 compared 30 migraineurs and 28 healthy controls to identify abnormalities in TMS-evoked potentials (TEPs) and significant current density (SCD) within sensory-discriminative regions including the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) and posterior insula (pINS), cognitive-affective regions including the anterior insula (aINS) and midcingulate cortex (MCC), and a descending modulatory region, the periaqueductal gray (PAG). Study 2 used a single-blind, crossover, sham-controlled design in 34 healthy participants. Each participant received both active (10 Hz, 80% RMT, 1 500 pulses) and sham DLPFC-rTMS in counterbalanced order. TMS-EEG and cold pain tolerance were assessed before and after each session. ResultsIn Study 1, migraineurs showed a significantly less negative N120 amplitude compared to healthy controls (P=0.027, Cohen’s d=0.60), indicating local intracortical disinhibition. No group differences were observed for N40, P60, or P180 components. At the source level, migraineurs exhibited significantly higher SCD in the S1, pINS, aINS, and MCC (allQ<0.05), but not in the ventroposterior thalamus (vpTHAL), mediodorsal thalamus (mdTHAL), or PAG. In Study 2, active rTMS significantly reduced SCD from pre- to post-stimulation in the S1, aINS, and MCC (all Q<0.05). Sham stimulation also reduced SCD in the S1 (Q<0.05) but not in the aINS or MCC. Although no significant group-level analgesic effect was observed between active and sham conditions (P=0.107), correlation analyses revealed that greater SCD reductions in the S1 and MCC were significantly associated with higher post-rTMS pain tolerance (R=-0.487 and -0.495, both Q<0.01) and larger improvements in pain tolerance(R=-0.487 and -0.451, both Q<0.05). No such correlations were found following sham stimulation, suggesting that the behavioural relevance of neural changes is specific to active rTMS. ConclusionThis study provides novel evidence that migraineurs exhibit both local neuroplastic abnormalities (reduced N120 amplitude) and hyperactivity in key pain-processing regions (S1, pINS, aINS, MCC). A single session of DLPFC-rTMS reduced hyperactivity in the aINS, MCC, and S1. Notably, greater reductions in the S1 and MCC were associated with improved pain tolerance. These findings identify distinct cortical circuitries, particularly within the cognitive-affective pain network, that may serve as potential biomarkers for optimizing rTMS treatment in migraine and other chronic pain conditions. Future studies should validate these results in patient populations experiencing spontaneous migraine attacks and explore multi-session or accelerated rTMS protocols.

Objective:To analyze the predictive role of WT1 expression levels pre-and early post-transplantation on relapse and overall survival(OS)in patients with acute myeloid leukemia(AML)undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT)during their first complete remission(CR1).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 107 adult AML patients who underwent allo-HSCT during their CR1 at our center between May 2012 and December 2021.The predictive role of bone marrow WT1 expression levels before transplantation and at 3 and 6 months post-transplantation on relapse and OS was explored in combination with relevant clinical factors.Results:The median follow-up time for the 107 patients was 70(range:11-117)months.Among the patients,15 cases died.Kaplan-Meier survial analysis showed that the 3-year overall survival(OS)rate was 85.0％.20 patients experienced relapse,with a median time to relapse of 8(range:0.5-44)months and a l-year cumulative relapse rate of 13.1％.The overall median value of WT1 before transplantation,3 months after transplantation,and 6 months after transplantation was 0.26％(range:0％-23.64％),with an upper quartile value of 0.74％.No statistically significant differences in WT1 expression levels were observed among the pre-transplantation,3-month post-transplantation,and 6-month post-transplantation time points(P=0.227).Univariate analysis showed that patients with WT1 levels＞0.74％at 3 months post-transplantation had a higher 1-year relapse rate(P=0.029)and lower 3-year OS rate(P＜0.001)compared to patients with WT1 levels ≤0.74％.Other significant factors affecting 1-year relapse included stem cell source(P=0.041)and chronic graft-versus-host disease(cGVHD)(P=0.013).For 3-year OS,additional influencing factors were genetic high risk(P=0.048)and stem cell source(P=0.016).Multivariate analysis revealed that WT1 level＞0.74％at 3 months post-transplantation had a trend to affect 1-year relapse rate(HR=3.309,95％CI:0.958-11.431,P=0.058),while the absence of cGVHD was an independent risk factor for 1-year relapse(HR=3.473,95％CI:0.749-16.100,P=0.037).Only WT1 level＞0.74％at 3 months post-transplantation was an independent risk factor for 3-year OS(HR=6.886,95％CI:2.402-19.738,P＜0.001).Conclusion:High WT1 expression level at 3 months post-transplantation in AML patients undergoing allo-HSCT during CR1 affects the 1-year relapse rate and 3-year OS,and is an independent risk factor affecting 3-year OS.These findings suggest that dynamic monitoring of WT1 expression levels has certain value in prognostic assessment of AML patients who received allo-HSCT during CR1.

Objective:To explore the distribution of cardiovascular disease(CVD)and cardiovascular risk fac-tors(CVRF)in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer before treatment and their correlation with the histological type,stage and grade of ovarian cancer.Methods:A total of 401 newly diagnosed epithelial ovarian cancer pa-tients admitted to The First Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University from January 1,2015 to December 31,2022 were enrolled.Analyze the distribution of CVD(including hypertension,coronary heart disease,stroke,etc.)and CVRF(including diabetes,dyslipidemia,high level of uric acid)in epithelial ovarian cancer patients.Univari-ate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression were performed on the association between CVD,CVRF and the histological type,grade and stage of epithelial ovarian cancer.Results:①Among 401 epithelial ovarian cancer pa-tients,43.6％had at least one CVD before therapy.The most common CVD was hypertension(41.1％),and the most common CVRF was dyslipidemia(57.9％).②Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age ≥60 years was an independent risk factor for serous,high-grade,and advanced epithelial ovarian cancer(OR＞1,P＜0.05).Dyslipidemia was an independent risk factor for high-grade and advanced epithelial ovarian cancer(OR＞1,P＜0.05).High level of uric acid was an independent risk factor for advanced epithelial ovarian cancer(OR＞1,P＜0.05).③The proportion of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)and lipoprotein A[Lp(A)]abnor-malities in patients with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer was significantly higher than in those with early stage epithelial ovarian cancer(P＜0.05),and the proportion of number of abnormal lipid components was higher in pa-tients with high grade and advanced epithelial ovarian cancer than in patients with low grade and early stage epi-thelial ovarian cancer,respectively(P＜0.05).Conclusions:Patients with epithelial ovarian cancer bear a signifi-cant burden of CVD and CVRF.Hypertension is the most common CVD,and dyslipidemia is the most common CVRF.Dyslipidemia was associated with epithelial ovarian cancer grade and stage.High level of uric acid was as-sociated with epithelial ovarian cancer stage.Active control of blood pressure and blood lipid levels is very impor-tant for epithelial ovarian cancer patients.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of autologous costal cartilage rhinoplasty combined with costal cartilage block grafting to the alar base in the correction of saddle nose deformity with alar-columellar base depression.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on patients who underwent autologous costal cartilage rhinoplasty combined with alar base augmentation at the Department of Plastic Surgery, Zhejiang Provincial People’s Hospital, from January 2022 to December 2023. All patients presented with alar-columellar base depression combined with saddle nose deformity. Through bilateral marginal incisions of the lower lateral cartilage and an inverted V-shaped columellar incision, the 6th costal cartilage near the sternal end was harvested and sculpted into two alar base grafts, one columellar strut graft in an inverted V shape, two septal extension grafts, and one cap graft. On the basis of block costal cartilage grafting to the alar base, a nasal tip support framework and septal extension graft were constructed, combined with implantation of an expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) prosthesis, to correct the aesthetic defects of saddle nose with alar-columellar base depression. Postoperative complications and recovery were recorded. Standardized pre- and 6-month postoperative photographs were analyzed using Adobe Photoshop and Image J to measure nasal base elevation, nasolabial angle, nasofrontal angle, nasal tip angle, nasal tip projection-to-length ratio, and columella-lobule angle. Patient satisfaction was evaluated preoperatively and at 6 months postoperatively using the visual analogue scale (VAS, 0-10 points; higher scores indicate greater satisfaction) and the rhinoplasty outcome evaluation (ROE) questionnaire (total score 0-24; higher scores indicate greater satisfaction). Paired t-tests were used for statistical analysis, with P<0.05 considered statistically significant. Results:A total of 48 patients were enrolled, including 3 males and 45 females, aged from 19 to 37 years (27.3±5.9 years). The postoperative follow-up period ranged from 6 to 12 months. No infections, hemorrhage, or other complications occurred. Swelling subsided substantially within 4-5 weeks postoperatively, and no significant nasal airway obstruction, sensory abnormalities, or olfactory disturbances were observed. Patients were satisfied with their postoperative appearance and outcomes. At 6 months postoperatively, the nasal base elevation was increased compared with preoperative measurements (6.08 ± 0.85) mm. Compared with preoperative values, significant improvements were observed at 6 months postoperatively in nasolabial angle (84.69° ± 4.24° vs. 96.81° ± 5.80°), nasofrontal angle (143.91° ± 3.91° vs. 136.24° ± 2.66°), nasal tip angle (84.13° ± 5.25° vs. 78.20° ± 5.40°), nasal tip projection-to-length ratio (0.45 ± 0.05 vs. 0.53 ± 0.07), columella-lobule angle (49.22° ± 5.29° vs. 44.25° ± 3.52°), VAS score (4.69 ± 0.90 vs. 8.45 ± 0.80), and ROE score (11.99 ± 1.47 vs. 21.50 ± 1.31) (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Autologous costal cartilage rhinoplasty combined with costal cartilage block grafting to the alar base can effectively correct saddle nose deformity with alar-columellar base depression, achieving comprehensive improvement in midfacial aesthetics.

Objective To explore the effect of esketamine combined with butorphanol on hemodynamics in painless gastroenteroscopy for elderly patients with obesity and the anesthetic efficacy and safety of this combined anesthesia regimen.Methods The subjects of this study,124 elderly patients with obesity who received painless gastroenteroscopy from January 2022 to March 2024,were randomly divided into two groups,each with 62 cases.Both groups were administrated with propofol 1.50 mg/kg for anesthesia induction.The observation group was given esketamine 0.20 mg/kg combined with butorphanol 10 μg/kg intravenously prior to propofol injection,while the control group was given saline of the same volume as esketamine combined with butorphanol 10 μg/kg intravenously before propofol injection.Vital signs indicators[mean arterial pressure(MAP),heart rate(HR),and percutaneous arterial oxygen saturation(SpO2)]were compared between the two groups at the time of entry(T0),immediately after anesthesia induction(T1),immediately after gastroscopy placement(T2),immediately upon completion of gastroscopy(T3),immediately after colonoscopy insertion(T4),and immediately upon completion of colonoscopy examination(T5).The anesthesia effect was evaluated for the two groups during painless gastroenteroscopy examination.The duration of gastroenteroscopy and propofol dosage were compared between the two groups as well.Visual analogue scale(VAS)score was used to evaluate the postoperative pain level for patients from the two groups 1,2,3,and 4 h after surgery.Intraoperative and postoperative adverse reactions in two groups were recorded.Results The MAP at T3,T4,and T5 time points in observation group were lower than that at T0 time point,the HR at T4 and T5 time point in observation group was lower than that at T0 time point,the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05),there was no significant difference in SpO2 at each time point in observation group(P＞0.05).While the MAP,HR,and SpO2 at T1,T2,T3,T4,and T5 time points in control group were significantly lower than those at T0 time points,the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The MAP,HR,and SpO2 at T1,T2,T3,T4,and T5 time points in control group were lower than those in observation group,the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The excellent and good rate of anesthesia in observation group was better than that in control group,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The propofol dosage in observation group was less than that in control group,the recovery time in observation group was shorter than that in control group,the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in duration of gastroenteroscopy examination,postanesthesia care unit(PACU)stay and leave hospital time between the two groups(P＞0.05).1,2,3,and 4 h postoperative pain VAS scores in observation group were less than those in control group,the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The incidence of respiratory depression was 3.23％,which was significantly lower than 19.35％in control group,the incidence of hypotension was 4.84％,which was significantly lower than 25.81％in control group,the incidence of bradycardia was 0.00％,which was significantly lower than 17.74％in control group,the incidence of nausea and vomiting was 1.61％,which was significantly lower than 12.90％in control group,the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in the incidence of tachycardia,coughing,body movement,and dizziness between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion Application of esketamine combined with butorphanol in painless gastroenteroscopy for elderly patients with obesity can effectively improve sedative and analgesic effects,stabilize hemodynamics,and reduce adverse reactions.It is worthy clinical application.

Objective To investigate the application of a 3-D printed femoral locator designed based on the modified quadrant method,combined with patient imaging data,then assist in femoral positioning for anterior cruciate ligament(ACL)reconstruction.Methods From January 2023 to January 2024,60 patients with primary ACL rupture who met the inclusion criteria were randomly assigned to either the 3-D printed guide group(using a 3-D printed femoral positioning guide to assist ACL reconstruction with nylon material)or the traditional surgery group(traditional surgery with direct visualization ACL reconstruction),with 30 patients in each group.Preoperative and postoperative knee CT scans and three-dimensional reconstructions were performed.The modified quadrant method was used to analyze and compare the percentage coordinates(Fx and Fy)of the femoral tunnel center point pre-and postoperatively within the same group and between different groups.Results The guides were made using nylon material.The surgery duration was significantly shorter in the 3D-printed guide group(53.8±6.0)min compared to the traditional surgery group(62.4±7.8)min,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Analysis using the modified quadrant method showed that the postoperative relative coordinate position percentages of the femoral tunnel center in the 3D-printed guide group(28.4±2.0)％and(35.5±2.3)％were not significantly different from the preoperative planned values(28.4±0.0)％and(35.7±0.0)％,the differences were not statistically significant(P＞0.05).Similarly,in the traditional surgery group,the postoperative coordinate percentages(28.1±2.9)％and(35.2±3.2)％showed no significant difference compared to the preoperative planned values(28.4±0.0)％and(35.7±0.0)％,the differences were not statistically significant(P＞0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the postoperative femoral tunnel center position percentages between the two groups(P＞0.05).The Lysholm score and International Knee Documentation Committee(IKDC)score of the two groups showed an increasing trend after surgery,and the differences between Lysholm score and IKDC score at each time point were statistically significant(P＜0.05).However,no statistical differences were found between the two groups at each postoperative time point(P＞0.05).Conclusion Both intra-articular 3D-printed guide-assisted and traditional surgery-assisted femoral positioning for ACL reconstruction can achieve anatomical reconstruction,with no significant difference in bone tunnel positioning.However,the use of intra-articular 3D-printed guide technology has a more centralized distribution of the femoral tunnel center point and a shorter surgery duration.This study provides proof of concept for the creation of personalized femoral tunnel locators for patients undergoing ACL reconstruction.

Objective:To investigate the factors influencing the persistence of prostate specific antigen(PSA) following radical prostatectomy, and to develop and validate a predictive model for PSA persistence.Methods:Clinical data from 1 828 patients who underwent radical prostatectomy at Shanghai Changhai Hospital between January 2015 and December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Of these, 1 295 patients from January 2015 to April 2021 comprised the modeling group, while 533 patients from May 2021 to December 2023 formed the validation group. Additionally, 109 patients who underwent radical surgery at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University between March and December 2023 were included as an external validation group. Patients with incomplete clinical information, serum PSA levels exceeding 100 ng/ml, or those who received preoperative neoadjuvant therapy were excluded. Ultimately, 1 003, 369, and 86 patients were included in the modeling, validation, and external validation groups, respectively. The modeling group had serum PSA of 19.29 (8.43, 23.73) ng/ml; the clinical stages were distributed as T 1, T 2, T 3, and T 4 in 191, 673, 123, and 16 patients, respectively; the primary Gleason scores of biopsy were 3, 4, and 5 in 460, 466, and 77 patients, respectively; and the secondary Gleason scores were 3, 4, and 5 in 363, 486, and 154 patients, respectively. The validation group had serum PSA of 12.80 (6.82, 14.40) ng/ml; the clinical stages were distributed as T 1, T 2, T 3, and T 4 in 40, 289, 37, and 3 patients, respectively; the primary Gleason scores of biopsy were 3, 4, and 5 in 218, 145, and 6 patients, respectively; and the secondary Gleason scores were 3, 4, and 5 in 140, 184, and 45 patients, respectively. The external validation group had serum PSA of 12.84 (7.11, 12.97) ng/ml; the clinical stages were distributed as T 1, T 2 and T 3 in 9, 68, and 9 patients, respectively; the primary Gleason scores of biopsy were 3, 4, and 5 in 58, 27, and 1 patient, respectively; and the secondary Gleason scores were 3, 4, and 5 in 28, 50, and 8 patients, respectively. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify independent risk factors for PSA persistence after radical prostatectomy in the modeling group and a prediction model was constructed. The predictive performance of the model was analyzed using the area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve, the calibration curve, and the clinical decision curve. The predictive performance of the model was verified by the ROC curve in the validation group and the external validation group. Results:The incidence of persistent PSA after surgery in the modeling group, validation group, and external validation group was 8.97% (90/1 003), 7.32% (27/369), and 17.4% (15/86), respectively. In the modeling group, univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that serum PSA, percentage of positive needle cores, primary Gleason score on biopsy, and secondary Gleason score on biopsy were independent risk factors for PSA persistence ( P<0.05), and a prediction model was constructed based on these factors. The AUC value of this model was 0.790 (95% CI 0.745-0.835). Calibration curve and clinical decision curve analyses showed that the model's predicted probabilities aligned well with actual risks within the 0-40% prediction interval, providing clinical benefit. The AUC values of the ROC curves in the validation group and external validation group were 0.808 (95% CI 0.719-0.897) and 0.822 (95% CI 0.714-0.929), respectively, indicating that the model had good predictive performance. Conclusions:The predictive model for PSA persistence, constructed based on serum PSA, percentage of positive needle cores, primary and secondary Gleason score on biopsy, demonstrated good clinical predictive performance, exhibiting high accuracy in both internal and cross-center validation.
