The pharmaceutical industry faces challenges in quality digitization for complex multi-stage processes, especially in small-sample systems. Here, an intelligent quality prediction and diagnostic (IQPD) framework was developed and applied to Tong Ren Tang's Niuhuang Qingxin Pills, utilizing four years of data collected from four production units, covering the entire process from raw materials to finished products. In this framework, a novel path-enhanced double ensemble quality prediction model (PeDGAT) is proposed, which combines a graph attention network and path information to encode inter-unit long-range and sequential dependencies. Additionally, the double ensemble strategy enhances model stability in small samples. Compared to global traditional models, PeDGAT achieves state-of-the-art results, with an average improvement of 13.18% and 87.67% in prediction accuracy and stability on three indicators. Additionally, a more in-depth diagnostic model leveraging grey correlation analysis and expert knowledge reduces reliance on large samples, offering a panoramic view of attribute relationships across units and improving process transparency. Finally, the IQPD framework integrates into a Human-Cyber-Physical system, enabling faster decision-making and real-time quality adjustments for Tong Ren Tang's Niuhuang Qingxin Pills, a product with annual sales exceeding 100 million CNY. This facilitates the transition from experience-driven to data-driven manufacturing.

Objective To preliminarily design a wide-energy-spectrum CR-39 solid-state nuclear track individual neutron dosimeter with different energy sections. Methods The thickness of the converter was optimized using the Monte Carlo SRIM program to broaden the energy range of the dosimeter. The self-made wide-energy-spectrum CR-39 individual neutron dosimeter was calibrated using ²⁴¹Am-Be, ²⁵²Cf, and thermal neutron sources to evaluate its dosimetric performance, including linearity, energy response, and neutron energy resolution. Results The linear correlation coefficient of the measurement system exceeded 0.98. The relative deviations of the energy response were 35.0% for blank section and 42.0% for polyethylene section, falling within the range of −50% to + 100% and meeting the monitoring requirements. The detection sensitivity for thermal neutron dose was 67 137.2 tr·cm⁻²·mSv⁻¹, and the detection sensitivity for thermal neutron fluence was 0.98 × 10⁻³ tr·n⁻¹, demonstrating good thermal neutron detection capability. Conclusion The self-made wide-energy-spectrum CR-39 individual neutron dosimeter fundamentally meets the requirements for individual neutron dose monitoring and is suitable for individual neutron dose monitoring in the energy range of thermal neutrons (up to approximately 15 MeV).

Objective:To investigate the morphological characteristics of skull base in children with hemifacial microsomia (HFM) by three-dimensional reconstruction and measurement of skull base.Methods:Three-dimensional spiral CT data of HFM children with unilateral involvement who had not received any treatment from the First Center of Maxillofacial Plastic Surgery, Plastic Surgery Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from February 2010 to December 2020 were collected. The patients were divided into four groups according to the Pruzansky-Kaban classification standard: Ⅰ, Ⅱa, Ⅱb and Ⅲ. The three-dimensional reconstruction and measurement of the skull base were performed using Mimics 17.0 software. Linear measurements of the skull base included the distance from tuberculum sellae to optic canal (OT), foramen rotundum (FrT), foramen ovale (FT), internal acoustic meatus (IT), hypoglossal canal (HT), and the distance from anterior clinoid process to the lesser wing of the sphenoid bone (ClS) and the petrous ridge of the temporal bone (ClP). The measurement indexes of skull base angle included anterior cranial angle (ACA), middle cranial angle (MCA), posterior cranial angle (PCA), and petrous ridge angle (PRA). SPSS 26.0 software was used for statistical analysis of the measurement result. Paired t-test was used for comparison within each group, and one-way ANOVA was used for comparison between different types. P<0.05 was statistically significant. Results:A total of 40 children with HFM were collected, with 10 cases in each group. The result of skull base angle measurement showed that the MCA of the healthy side of typeⅠHFM was significantly larger than that of the affected side, and the MCA and PRA of the healthy side of type Ⅲ HFM were larger than those of the affected side ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the angle of skull base between the healthy side and the affected side of typeⅡa andⅡb HFM ( P>0.05). In terms of linear distance measurement of skull base, FrT and HT on the healthy side of typeⅠHFM were longer than those on the affected side; FrT, IT, HT and ClP on the healthy side of typeⅡa HFM were significantly longer than those on the affected side; IT, HT and ClP on the healthy side of typeⅡb HFM were longer than those on the affected side; and HT on the healthy side of type Ⅲ HFM was longer than those on the affected side ( P<0.05). The difference between FrT and ClP (affected / healthy) of four types of HFM was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The morphology of HFM is different between the affected side and the healthy side. As for the angle of skull base, MCA was obvious smaller in the affected side than that in the healthy side in the type Ⅰ and type Ⅲ HFM. As for the linear measurement, the distance from the hypoglossal canal to the tuberculum sellae on the affected side is shorter than that on the healthy side in each type HFM, indicating that the growth and development of the cranial base on the affected side is affected in a certain degree.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and the pathogens of recurrent urinary tract infection (RUTI) after renal transplantation.Methods The data of adult recipients with UTI from November 2011 to December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed.The recipients were divided into single UTI (SUTI) group and RUTI group.The clinical characteristics and pathogens were analyzed,and the independent risk factors of RUTI were analyzed using logistic regressionmodel.Results Fifty-three cases were selected,including 29 cases of SUTI and 24 cases of RUTI.The positive rate of blood culture (55％ vs.25％,P =0.042) and the concentration of FK506 in the peri-infection period (11.0 + 3.4 ng/mL vs.8.6 + 3.2 ng/mL,P =0.024) in the RUTI group were significantly higher than that those in the SUTI group at the first UTI.The increased concentration of FK506 in the peri-infection period at the first UTI was an independent risk factor for RUTI (β:0.282,95％ CI:1.026-1.713,P＜0.05).There were 86 infection events in 53 patients,and pathogenic microorganisms were cultured in blood culture and urine culture for 86 times.The positive frequency of culture in the RUTI group was higher than that in the SUTI group,but not significantly.The most common pathogenic microorganisms included Escherichia coli (17 times),pseudomonas aeruginosa (16 times),and Enterococcus (16 times).Conclusion Reduction of the FK506 concentration during the peri-infection period at the first UTI is the key to prevent RUTI after renal transplantation.The empirical antibiotics for RUTI should be sensitive for Escherichia coli (ESBL +)and pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Objective To explore the time of application of hemoperfusion (HP) for the treatment of acute serious organophosphorus pesticide (ASOPP). Methods One hundred and four patients with ASOPP were randomly divided into two groups, 46 patients accepted traditional treatment(control group), 58 patients were treated with traditional treatment and HP (HP group). The patients in HP group were again divided into three groups according the different time of treatment (time of beginning HP after poisoning), the 4-8 hours group (HP-1 group, 27 patients), the 9-16 hours group (HP-2 group, 19 patients), the 17-32 hours group (HP-3 group, 12 pafients).Tbe coma period, the dosage of atropine, the time of regaining the vitality of cholinesterase, the time of hospitalization and the rate of fatality and curing among groups were observed. Results The coma period, the dosage of atropine, the time of regaining the vitality of cholinesterase, the time of hospitalization and the rate of fatality of the HP group were less than those of the control group (P<0.05). Compared with HP-1 group, the eoma period, the dosage of atropine, the time of regaining the vitality of eholinesterase and the time of hospitalization of the HP-2 group and the HP-3 group were higher (P<0.05), but the difference of the rate of fatality and curing between the HP-1 group and the other HP groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05). The difference of all of the above indicators between HP-2 group and HP-3 group was not statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusion Application of hemoperfusion among 4-32 hours after poisoning for the treatment of ASOPP can improve the efficacy of therapy, and the efficacy of application of hemoperfusion among 4-8 hours is the best.
