Objective To explore the damage results and structural response laws of medical cabins in ships under explosion attack.Methods Firstly,the cabin structure was equivalently regarded as a T-shaped plate frame based on the explosion load theory,then four finite element models for the medical cabins were established with the dimensions(length ×width×height)of 2.8 m×2.6 m×2.3 m,3.2 m×3.2 m×2.4 m,4.2 m×3.2 m×2.5 m and 5.4 m×4.0 m×2.6 m.Secondly,an explosion damage model was constructed using ABAQUS simulation software,and explosion damage simulation was carried out with the explosion locating at the cabin center and the outside of the bulkhead and the explosion energy of 10 kg and 100 kg trinitrotoluene(TNT)equivalent.Finally,the 10 kg and 100 kg TNT explosion damage results were ananlyzed at the cabin center and the outside of the bulkhead.Results At the cabin center,10 kg TNT explosion resulted in local deformation and limited affected area of the large-sized cabin,while 100 kg TNT explosion lead to extensive affected ranges in the functional areas and severe deformation and damage in the small-sized cabin.At the outside of the bulkhead,10 kg TNT explosion gave rise to breaches in some areas of the small-sized cabin and local deformation of the large-sized cabin,while 100 kg TNT explosion caused large breaches in all the cabins.Conclusion The explosion load induces serious deformation and damage and complicated breaches in the cabin with small size and weak structural strength.The cabin with large size and thick bulkhead and stiffener behaves well in explosion resistance,while high equivalent explosions may bring about serious damage to its local structure.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(1):27-32]

Objective To explore the postmortem diffusion rule of Aconitum alkaloids and their metabo-lites in poisoned rabbits,and to provide a reference for identifying the antemortem poisoning or post-mortem poisoning of Aconitum alkaloids.Methods Twenty-four rabbits were sacrificed by tracheal clamps.After 1 hour,the rabbits were administered with aconitine LD50 in decocting aconite root powder by intragastric administration.Then,they were placed supine and stored at 25℃.The biological samples from 3 randomly selected rabbits were collected including heart blood,peripheral blood,urine,heart,liver,spleen,lung and kidney tissues at 0 h,4 h,8 h,12 h,24 h,48 h,72 h and 96 h after intragastric administration,respectively.Aconitum alkaloids and their metabolites in the biological samples were ana-lyzed by high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(HPLC-MS/MS).Results At 4 h after intragastric administration,Aconitum alkaloids and their metabolites could be detected in heart blood,peripheral blood and major organs,and the contents of them changed dynamically with the preservation time.The contents of Aconitum alkaloids and their metabolites were higher in the spleen,liver and lung,especially in the spleen which was closer to the stomach.The average mass fraction of benzoylmesaconine metabolized in rabbit spleen was the highest at 48 h after intragastric administration.In contrast,the contents of Aconitum alkaloids and their metabolites in kidney were all lower.Aconi-tum alkaloids and their metabolites were not detected in urine.Conclusion Aconitum alkaloids and their metabolites have postmortem diffusion in poisoned rabbits,diffusing from high-content organs(stomach)to other major organs and tissues as well as the heart blood.The main mechanism is the dispersion along the concentration gradient,while urine is not affected by postmortem diffusion,which can be used as the basis for the identification of antemortem and postmortem Aconitum alkaloids poisoning.

Objective To evaluate the blast damage of the medical cabin in the coast guard ship based on the neural network prediction model.Methods Firstly,a cabin finite element model was established with the typical medical cabin in some coast guard ship as the subject;secondly,ABAQUS simulation software was used to construct a blast damage simulation model and perform blast damage numerical simulation;thirdly,three neural network prediction models respectively based on Levenberg-Marquardt,Bayesian regularization and conjugate gradient algorithms were formed with the sample data from the simulation results and MATLAB software;finally,visualization over the prediction results of the neural network prediction models was carried out in terms of three blast conditions at the interior,bulkhead and near field of the cabin,and the blast damage to the cabin was analyzed with reference to the simulation results.Results Near the observation points the damage prediction results by the models were similar to those by the simulation.The blasts at the interior and bulkhead both resulted in obvious damages to the cabin framework,with serious effects and large damage areas;near-field blasts did not cause direct damage to the inter-nal framework of the cabin.Conclusion The neural network prediction model forecasts the blast damage to the medical carin in the coast guard ship,and references are provided for the structural design of the cabins in the coast guard ship.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2024,45(12):14-18]

A qualitative identification method for Salmonella using high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(HPLC-MS/MS)with multiple reaction monitoring(MRM)mode was established.Eight characteristic peptides were selected,and their MRM parameters were optimized.Furthermore,the performance of this HPLC-MS/MS method in species identification was further evaluated.Experimental results demonstrated that this method exhibited high specificity,enabling accurate differentiation of Salmonella from conventional food-borne pathogens.In a milk matrix,the 50%limit of detection(LOD50)was determined to be 0.35 CFU/25 g.This method was successfully applied to qualitatively identify Salmonellain five artificially contaminated food samples.The method presented here,in contrast to traditional biochemical assays,offered both speed and specificity,providing a novel means for the rapid and accurate identification of Salmonella in food.It held significant implications for the surveillance,prevention,and control of food-borne diseases.

Objective: To analyze and compare therapy responses, outcomes, and incidence of severe hematologic adverse events of flumatinib and imatinib in patients newly diagnosed with chronic phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) . Methods: Data of patients with chronic phase CML diagnosed between January 2006 and November 2022 from 76 centers, aged ≥18 years, and received initial flumatinib or imatinib therapy within 6 months after diagnosis in China were retrospectively interrogated. Propensity score matching (PSM) analysis was performed to reduce the bias of the initial TKI selection, and the therapy responses and outcomes of patients receiving initial flumatinib or imatinib therapy were compared. Results: A total of 4 833 adult patients with CML receiving initial imatinib (n=4 380) or flumatinib (n=453) therapy were included in the study. In the imatinib cohort, the median follow-up time was 54 [interquartile range (IQR), 31-85] months, and the 7-year cumulative incidences of CCyR, MMR, MR(4), and MR(4.5) were 95.2%, 88.4%, 78.3%, and 63.0%, respectively. The 7-year FFS, PFS, and OS rates were 71.8%, 93.0%, and 96.9%, respectively. With the median follow-up of 18 (IQR, 13-25) months in the flumatinib cohort, the 2-year cumulative incidences of CCyR, MMR, MR(4), and MR(4.5) were 95.4%, 86.5%, 58.4%, and 46.6%, respectively. The 2-year FFS, PFS, and OS rates were 80.1%, 95.0%, and 99.5%, respectively. The PSM analysis indicated that patients receiving initial flumatinib therapy had significantly higher cumulative incidences of CCyR, MMR, MR(4), and MR(4.5) and higher probabilities of FFS than those receiving the initial imatinib therapy (all P<0.001), whereas the PFS (P=0.230) and OS (P=0.268) were comparable between the two cohorts. The incidence of severe hematologic adverse events (grade≥Ⅲ) was comparable in the two cohorts. Conclusion: Patients receiving initial flumatinib therapy had higher cumulative incidences of therapy responses and higher probability of FFS than those receiving initial imatinib therapy, whereas the incidence of severe hematologic adverse events was comparable between the two cohorts.

Objective: To describe the current status and trends in the treatment of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) among very preterm infants (VPI) admitted to the neonatal intensive care units (NICU) of the Chinese Neonatal Network (CHNN) from 2019 to 2021, and to compare the differences in PDA treatment among these units. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study based on the CHNN VPI cohort, all of 22 525 VPI (gestational age<32 weeks) admitted to 79 tertiary NICU within 3 days of age from 2019 to 2021 were included. The overall PDA treatment rates were calculated, as well as the rates of infants with different gestational ages (≤26, 27-28, 29-31 weeks), and pharmacological and surgical treatments were described. PDA was defined as those diagnosed by echocardiography during hospitalization. The PDA treatment rate was defined as the number of VPI who had received medication treatment and (or) surgical ligation of PDA divided by the number of all VPI. Logistic regression was used to investigate the changes in PDA treatment rates over the 3 years and the differences between gestational age groups. A multivariate Logistic regression model was constructed to compute the standardized ratio (SR) of PDA treatment across different units, to compare the rates after adjusting for population characteristics. Results: A total of 22 525 VPI were included in the study, with a gestational age of 30.0 (28.6, 31.0) weeks and birth weight of 1 310 (1 100, 1 540) g; 56.0% (12 615) of them were male. PDA was diagnosed by echocardiography in 49.7% (11 186/22 525) of all VPI, and the overall PDA treatment rate was 16.8% (3 795/22 525). Of 3 762 VPI who received medication treatment, the main first-line medication used was ibuprofen (93.4% (3 515/3 762)) and the postnatal day of first medication treatment was 6 (4, 10) days of age; 59.3% (2 231/3 762) of the VPI had been weaned from invasive respiratory support during the first medication treatment, and 82.2% (3 092/3 762) of the infants received only one course of medication treatment. A total of 143 VPI underwent surgery, which was conducted on 32 (22, 46) days of age. Over the 3 years from 2019 to 2021, there was no significant change in the PDA treatment rate in these VPI (P=0.650). The PDA treatment rate decreased with increasing gestational age (P<0.001). The PDA treatment rates for VPI with gestational age ≤26, 27-28, and 29-31 weeks were 39.6% (688/1 737), 25.9% (1 319/5 098), and 11.4% (1 788/15 690), respectively. There were 61 units having a total number of VPI≥100 cases, and their rates of PDA treatment were 0 (0/116)-47.4% (376/793). After adjusting for population characteristics, the range of standardized ratios for PDA treatment in the 61 units was 0 (95%CI 0-0.3) to 3.4 (95%CI 3.1-3.8). Conclusions: From 2019 to 2021, compared to the peers in developed countries, VPI in CHNN NICU had a different PDA treatment rate; specifically, the VPI with small birth gestational age had a lower treatment rate, while the VPI with large birth gestational age had a higher rate. There are significant differences in PDA treatment rates among different units.

Objective To design and validate a novel surgical guide for retrieval of foreign body in jaw. Methods Firstly, a surgical guide based on cone beam computed tomography and trephine technique was designed to remove broken dental instrument fragments. Its feasibility and accuracy were assessed by removing broken dental instrument in goat mandible, and then it was successfully applied in clinical cases. The linear and angular discrepancies between actual and planned columnar bone with imaginary fragment was analyzed. The euclidean distance was measured at the hex and apex of the columnar bone and the angle of axis deviation was also calculated. We obtained seven parameters (cdh, cda, hdh, hda, vdh, vda, and ad) to describe deviations. Results Mean central deviation at the hex and apex was (0.51 ± 0.14) mm and (0.62 ± 0.19) mm, respectively. Accompanying mean values were as follow: horizontal deviation at the hex was (0.48 ± 0.16) mm, horizontal deviation at the apex was (0.52 ± 0.22) mm, vertical deviation at the hex was (0.17 ± 0.09) mm, vertical deviation at the apex was (0.29 ± 0.13) mm, and angular deviation of (5.38 ± 3.43) degrees. In a clinical case, the guide successfully located and removed the fracture file. Conclusion This study reveals that this kind novel surgical guide could aid to locate and remove the foreign body in jaw.
