Objective To propose a high-precision deep learning-based image assessment method of osteosarcoma chemotherapy efficacy for clinical treatment,as existing methos have low accuracy of osteosarcoma assessment.Methods The low incidence of osteosarcoma led to the small scale of its imaging data and the problem of imbalance in data categories.This study combined deep learning with clinical medical information,combined the bone sarcoma generation module of BoneGAN and the scale lesion information capture module,and proposed OMLA-Net,a deep learning assessment network for chemotherapy effect of bone sarcoma based on multi-scale lesion attention network,which achieved computer-aided bone tumor assessment with integrated data augmentation and focused lesion information through pre-training and generalized loss training.Results In this study,40 cases of osteosarcoma MRI data were used as the basis for the comparison test on the generated dataset,and the OMLA-Net assessment outperformed the SOTA method Conv-LSTM-GAN in terms of the assessment effects such as accuracy and F1 scores,and the difference was statistically significant(Bootstrap statistical method P<0.05);the subsequent K-fold cross-validation ablation experiments further demonstrated the effectiveness of each module proposed by OMLA-Net.Conclusion OMLA-Net can effectively perform the impact assessment of chemotherapy effect on osteosarcoma,which provides a new idea for subsequent clinical application.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the predictive value of morphology, immunology, and cytogenetics for isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 and 2 (IDH1/2) gene mutation in newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients.
METHODS:
The clinical data of 186 newly diagnosed AML patients (except M3 subtype) in the First People's Hospital of Changzhou were retrospectively analyzed, and the variables associated with IDH1/2 mutation in patients were screened using LASSO regression to construct a multivariate logistic regression analysis model. The Bootstrap method was used for internal validation of the model and nomograms were used to visualize the model, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predictive performance of the model.
RESULTS:
A total of 60 AML patients had IDH1/2 mutation at initial diagnosis. LASSO regression screened 9 predictive variables associated with IDH1/2 mutation, including CD7, CD56, CD11b, CD15, CD64, HLA-DR, platelet count≥50×109/L, isolated +8 and normal karyotype. The nomogram and ROC curve were plotted based on the above 9 variables. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the training set and the validation set were 0.871 and 0.806, respectively. Internal validation showed that the nomogram had good predictive ability.
CONCLUSION
The prediction model based on MIC typing constructed in this study has a good predictive ability for the presence of IDH1/2 mutations in newly diagnosed AML patients and has important clinical application value when the gene mutation detection results are unavailable.

Assessment is an indispensable and critical activity in the educational process. In the recent decades, with the birth and development of competence-based educational paradigm, the rationale behind assessment is shifting from "assessment of learning" to "assessment for learning". Workplace-based assessment (WPBA), which aims to improve the quality of both learning and teaching through assessment in real workplace circumstances, is a set of assessment tools that conforms to the new concepts of medical education. In this article, with the purpose to promote the application of WPBA and thus enhance the quality of dental education in our country, a thorough discussion is performed regarding the core principles, tools, advantages of WPBA as well as attentions that should be noted when applying WPBA. It is recommended to establish a longitudinal assessment system which employs various WPBA tools and assesses the development of students' competencies through the whole educational process. Such a dynamic assessment system may be helpful to provide all-rounded and competent dental talents who can eventually benefit the society.

Objective:To construct a chain mediating model based on two mediating variables of positive psychological capital and general self-efficacy, so as to explore the impact mechanism of social support on posttraumatic growth in thyroid cancer patients.Methods:From March to December 2023, convenience sampling was used to select 270 postoperative patients with thyroid cancer from the Chinese People's Liberation Army General Hospital as participants. The patients were surveyed using the General Information Questionnaire, Post Traumatic Growth Inventory, Social Support Rating Scale, Positive Psychological Questionnaire, and General Self-efficacy Scale. Spearman correlation was used to analyze the correlation between social support, positive psychological capital, general self-efficacy, and posttraumatic growth in thyroid cancer patients. SPSS PROCESS program was used to test for the chain mediating effect.Results:A total of 270 questionnaires were distributed, and 257 questionnaires were collected. After excluding questionnaires with missing items exceeding 10% and regular responses, 246 valid questionnaires were collected, with a valid response rate of 91.11% (246/270). Spearman correlation showed that there was positive correlations between social support, positive psychological capital, general self-efficacy, and posttraumatic growth in patients ( P<0.01). Mediating effect analysis showed that social support directly and positively predicted posttraumatic growth in thyroid cancer [ β=0.403, 95% CI (0.258, 0.547) ], and also affected patients' posttraumatic growth through three indirect pathways, namely social support → positive psychological capital → posttraumatic growth, with an effect value of 0.083 [95% CI (0.002, 0.173) ], accounting for 13.63% of the total effect, and social support → general self-efficacy → posttraumatic growth, with an effect value of 0.099 [95% CI (0.040, 0.166) ], accounting for 16.26% of the total effect, and social support → positive psychological capital → general self-efficacy → posttraumatic growth, with an effect value of 0.025 [95% CI (0.005, 0.051) ], accounting for 4.11% of the total effect. The total indirect effect accounted for 33.83% of the total effect. Conclusions:Social support can not only directly affect the post-traumatic growth of thyroid cancer patients, but also indirectly affect post-traumatic growth through the mediating effect of positive psychological capital and general self-efficacy.
