Objective:To explore the implementation effect of the"four-step teaching of encouraging and sharing"combined anchor-based teaching mode in the course of laboratory diagnostics under the background of automatic laboratory.Methods:The"four-step teaching of encouraging and sharing"combined anchor-based teaching mode conducted teaching in course of laboratory diagnostics through carefully designed"anchors",self-directed learning,a second"anchor"placement,and outcome sharing.A total of 224 medical students of the 2021 and 2022 grades,who majored Chinese medicine in Beijing University of Chinese Medicine and conducted their internships in the Laboratory of Dongfang Hospital,Beijing University of Chinese Medicine from April 2023 to April 2025,were selected.According to different teaching modes,the 108 medical students of 2022 grade were divided into the combined teaching group that adopted the"four-step teaching of encouraging and sharing"combined anchor-based teaching mode to conduct teaching,and 116 medical students of 2021 grade were divided into the conventional teaching group that adopted conventional teaching mode to conduct teaching.After completed the courses,the comprehensive competency of these students of two groups during the internship were measured,and the application effect of the"four-step teaching of encouraging and sharing"combined anchor-based teaching mode was assessed by self-made survey questionnaire.Results:The scores of theoretical knowledge test and clinical case analysis assessment of the students of combined teaching group were respectively(44.19±2.36)and(48.20±1.52),all of which were higher than(38.36±2.14)and(37.56±2.47)of conventional teaching group,and the differences of them between two groups were statistically significant(t=28.72,55.71,P<0.05),respectively.In the combined teaching group,91.67%of the students expressed a preference for the"four-step teaching of encouraging and sharing"combined anchor-based teaching mode.Conclusion:Under the background of automatic laboratory,the"four-step teaching of encouraging and sharing"combined anchor-based teaching mode of laboratory diagnostics can effectively enhance students'transfer ability for knowledge,and strengthen their self-directed learning awareness,and lay a solid foundation for training clinical practice abilities of medical students.

Objective:To use machine learning to predict the efficacy of accelerated corneal collagen cross-linking (A-CXL) surgery, identify prognostic factors, and construct models to predict postoperative disease progression.Methods:A single-center retrospective study was conducted.A total of 82 keratoconus patients (112 eyes) who underwent A-CXL surgery at the West China Hospital of Sichuan University between March and December 2021 were enrolled.Preoperative and follow-up examinations included anterior segment evaluation by slit-lamp microscopy, corneal topography using Pentacam, and corneal biomechanical indices using Corvis ST.Disease progression was defined as an increase in maximum keratometry (Kmax) of ≥1 D from the preoperative level at the last follow-up.Various machine learning algorithms were employed to analyze corneal topography, biomechanical parameters and corneal densitometry values to identify prognostic factors and construct models for predicting postoperative disease progression.This study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki.The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of West China Hospital, Sichuan University (No.2023496).Written informed consent was obtained from each subject.Results:During follow-up, 15.1% (17/112) of the eyes showed progression after A-CXL.The preoperative astigmatism and stress-strain index (SSI) in the progression group were (-5.41±2.72)D and 1.41±0.78, respectively, which were significantly higher than (-3.30±2.54)D and 0.95±0.98 in the non-progression group ( t=2.80, 2.03; both P<0.05).Cox regression analysis identified preoperative astigmatism (hazard ratio [HR]=1.20), SSI (HR=1.10), and anterior corneal densitometry of 2-6 mm (CDA6) (HR=2.10) as significant risk factors for post-A-CXL progression.Among various machine learning models developed and validated, the area under the curve (AUC) values for logistic regression, multilayer perceptron (MLP) model, and random forest (RF) exceeded 0.700.For F1-score, the AUC values for logistic regression, MLP, and RF were 0.870, 0.880, and 0.880, respectively.The network structure of the visualized MLP was a single-layer, 24-neurons neural network with 80% accuracy in predicting whether progression occurred after A-CXL.The clinical nomogram developed in conjunction with astigmatism, SSI, and CDA6 predicted the cumulative probability of progression at 0.5, 1, and 2 years postoperatively based on the sum of the specified values for each variable, and based on the optimal cutoff value, keratoconus corneas could be classified into high-, intermediate-, and low-risk groups, respectively.The time-dependent subject operating characteristic curves of the nomogram showed AUCs of 0.734, 0.685, and 0.935 at 0.5, 1, and 2 years postoperatively, respectively, all of which performed well in predicting progression. Conclusions:Preoperative astigmatism, SSI, and CDA6 are significant risk factors for post-A-CXL progression in keratoconus.The MLP model can accurately predict postoperative disease progression, and the clinical nomogram combining preoperative astigmatism, SSI, and CDA6 can effectively differentiate between low-, medium-, and high-risk postoperative progression outcomes.

In this study, we constructed a GLP-2R-HEK293 cell line and established a method for the determination of the in vitro biological activity of teduglutide based on HTRF, after optimizing experimental conditions and methodological verification. We also carried out relative potency detection of teduglutide pharmaceutical products using this method. The result showed that there was a quantitative-efficient relationship between the teduglutide activity and cAMP contents in GLP-2R-HEK293 cells, which conformed to four-parameter model. Method verification results of five concentrations of teduglutide (64%, 80%, 100%, 125% and 156%) met the requirements of the General Rules of Chinese Pharmacopoeia, 2020 edition, Volume IV (9401). We then analyzed the relative potency of three batches of teduglutide drug substances and three batches of drug products. The linearity, regression and parallelism of the obtained curves all fit the system suitability requirements. The relative potency of six batches of teduglutide was from 83% to 105%. In summary, the biological activity detection method established in this study was accurate, precise, simple and time-saving, which can be used for quality control of teduglutide pharmaceutical products.

Objective:To explore the feasibility and effect of remote medical education model using online film reading training to improve the ability of ophthalmologists in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region (hereinafter referred to as "Xinjiang Region" ) in diagnosing fundus diseases.Methods:The three-level film reading training system of Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps system division hospital-Corps Hospital-Peking Union Medical College Hospital was established. From June 2022 to January 2023, 4 159 posterior color fundus images were continuously collected from Department of Ophthalmology of Xinjiang Corps Hospital and 4 divisional hospitals in the Corps medical system. Among them, hypertensive retinopathy, diabetic retinopathy, exudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD), atrophic AMD and retinal vein occlusion were 3 073, 651, 43, 186 and 206 cases, respectively. The images were divided into 3 rounds (first, second and last) according to the proportion of diseases. The doctors who participated in the training (hereinafter referred to as the "training") were 15 ophthalmologists from the Corps Hospital of Xinjiang Region and the division hospital of the Corps system. There were 7 male and 8 female. Age was (38.1±4.0) years. The titles of senior, deputy senior, intermediate and junior are 1, 6, 5 and 3 respectively; Bachelor's degree and master's degree are 13 and 2 respectively. The working time of fundus disease specialty was (9.6±3.3) years. The film reading system training was conducted before the first round of labeling, and after each round of film reading, the doctors of Peking Union Medical College Hospital gave feedback and explanation on the film reading results. The diagnostic consistency, sensitivity and specificity were compared by paired sample t test. Spearman or Pearson correlation analysis was conducted between the improvement of diagnostic level and professional title, education, age and working hours of ocular fundus disease. Results:All the participating doctors completed the first, second and last reading. After each round of film reading, the film reading summary was carried out for 2 hours. The average diagnostic agreement rates of participating physicians were 53.0%, 67.0% and 75.0%, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity were 0.38, 0.69, 054 and 0.66, 0.85, 0.96, respectively. There was significant difference between the first and last examination ( P<0.001). The sensitivity of the second reading was significantly higher than that of the first reading, and the sensitivity of the last reading was significantly lower than that of the second reading, with statistical significance ( P<0.05). The specificity of the second reading was significantly higher than that of the first reading, and the last reading was significantly higher than that of the second reading, with statistical significance ( P<0.05). There was no significant correlation ( P>0.05) between the improvement of diagnostic level of participating physicians and educational background ( Rho=0.07), professional title ( Rho=0.13), age ( r=0.20), and working time of ophthalmofundus disease specialty ( r=0.26). Conclusions:Relying on the three-level online telemedicine training, it can improve the ability of ophthalmologists in Xinjiang region to diagnose fundus diseases. The preliminary telemedicine education model has demonstrated potential for feasibility and effectiveness in remote areas with inadequate medical resources.

Objective: To analyze the efficacy and safety of the sodium channel blockers (SCB) antiseizure medication in the treatment of focal epilepsy in infants under 6 months of age. Methods: This was a case series study. Infants with focal epilepsy with onset within 6 months of age and treated with SCB attending the Department of Neurology of Beijing Children's Hospital from June 2016 to April 2022 were collected. The clinical data, auxiliary examinations, SCB application, efficacy, adverse reactions, and prognosis were analyzed retrospectively. Patients were grouped according to type of seizure and epileptic syndrome, age of onset and etiology. Chi square test and Fisher exact test were used to analyze the differences between groups statistically. Results: A total of 118 infants were enrolled, 65 males and 53 females, with an age of epilepsy onset of 56 (4, 114) days. Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy was diagnosed in 60 infants, 39 had self-limited neonatal and (or) infantile epilepsy, and 19 had non-syndromic focal epilepsy. Application of SCB: 106 used oxcarbazepine, 2 used lacosamide, 9 switched from oxcarbazepine to lacosamide or a combination of 2 SCB, and 1 used oxcarbazepine, lacosamide, and lamotrigine successively; oxcarbazepine was the first choice in 46 cases. The age at which SCB was applied was 103 (53, 144) days. The children were followed up for 6 months to 6 years. SCB was effective in 89 cases (75.4%), including 70 cases (59.3%) who achieved seizure freedom. The seizure-free rate was higher in the focal epilepsy only group than in the group with other seizure types (64.4% (65/101) vs. 4/17, χ²=9.99, P<0.05). The responder and seizure-free rates were all higher in the group with the onset age of >3-6 months than the group >1-3 months (84.4% (38/45) vs. 62.5% (20/32), 73.3% (33/45) vs. 46.9% (15/32), χ²=4.85 and 5.58, both P<0.05). With the exception of variants in the PRRT2 gene, those with variants in sodium or potassium channels had higher responder and seizure-free rates than those with variants in other genes(86.2% (25/29) vs. 45.5% (10/22), 62.1% (18/29) vs. 22.7% (5/22), χ²=9.65 and 7.82,both P<0.05). The most common adverse event was transient hyponatremia, which happened in 66 cases (55.9%). There were 9 cases of rash, which subsided in 6 cases after discontinuing oxcarbazepine and switching to lacosamide, and 7 cases of electrocardiogram abnormalities, which improved after withdrawing oxcarbazepine and changing to lacosamide in 1 case. Conclusion: SCB are effective and tolerable in the treatment of focal epilepsy in infants under 6 months of age, with better efficacy in patients with genetic variants of the sodium or potassium channel, focal seizures only, and seizure onset >3-6 months of age.
