Pediatric liver tumors are predominantly primary malignant tumors. Due to the delicate anatomical structures of the liver in children, the typically large tumor size, and frequent involvement of major hepatic vessels, surgical intervention poses significant challenges. Complete tumor resection while preserving sufficient remnant functional liver tissue is critical for improving prognosis. With the emergence of precision surgery concepts and advancements in computer tech-nology, three-dimensional visualization technology has gained increasing attention in the diagnosis and treatment of pediatric liver tumors. This technology can enhance surgical accuracy and safety through precise preoperative planning, intraoperative guidance, and postoperative follow-up. To standardize the application of three-dimensional visualization technology in pediatric liver tumor management, professor Dong Qian from The Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University has collabora-ted with 36 multidisciplinary experts from 8 countries to establish an international expert consensus on the clinical implementation of this technology in precision surgery for pediatric liver tumors. The authors provide an interpretation of the proposed consensus, aiming to guide clinicians in the standardized application of three-dimensional visualization technology during pediatric liver tumor resections.

Objective To explore the application value of MRI diaphragmatic navigation technology combined with three dimensional liver acquisition with volume acceleration-flexible(3D LAVA-FLEX)sequence in abdominal enhanced imaging of infants and young children.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on imaging data of 84 infants and young children who underwent abdominal enhanced MRI examination in our hospital between January 2021 and December 2023.All 84 infants and young children initially underwent conventional dynamic contrast-enhanced 3D LAVA-FLEX sequence scanning;the delayed phase images obtained were included in the dynamic enhancement group.Subsequently,diaphragmatic navigation combined with 3D LAVA-FLEX sequence examination was implemented,and the obtained images were included in the diaphragm navigation group.Subjective scoring was performed for images in both groups,while the signal to noise ratio(SNR),contrast to noise ratio(CNR),and artifact quantification(AQ)were measured and compared between the two groups.Results The respiratory motion artifacts,the clarity of liver parenchyma enhancement,the clarity of liver vascular enhancement,the clarity of spleen parenchyma enhancement and the overall image quality score in the diaphragm navigation group were higher than those in the dynamic enhancement group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).There were statistically significant differences in SNR and AQ between the two groups of images(P<0.000 1),while there was no statistically significant difference in CNR between the two groups of images(P>0.05).Conclusion Diaphragmatic navigation technology combined with 3D LAVA-FLEX sequence imaging can improve the image quality of abdominal MRI enhanced imaging in infants and young children,and provide a reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Aim To explore the mechanism by which the compound Chaijin Jieyu formula(CCJJY)regulates the TLR4/NLRP3 signaling pathway to inhibit central oxidative stress and improve hippocampal synaptic plasticity damage in depression.Methods SD rats were randomly divided into the control group,chronic unpredictable mild stress group,sleep deprivation group,chronic unpredictable mild stress combined with sleep deprivation group,positive drug group(venlafax-ine+melatonin),low-dose group of CCJJY,medium dose group of CCJJY,and high-dose group of CCJJY,with nine rats in each group.Except for the control group,a rat model of depression complicated with in-somnia was established using chronic unpredictable mild stress combined with sleep deprivation.Depres-sion-like and sleep behaviors in rats were evaluated through weight,food intake,water maze,and pento-barbital sodium tests.ELisa was used to detect ROS,AANAT,and HPLC-EC was used to detect 5-HT con-tent,while Western blot/RT-PCR was used to detect the expression of IL-1β,TLR4,NLRP3,PSD-95,and SYN related proteins and mRNA.HE and Golgic stai-ning were used to observe the pathological changes in the third ventricle,hippocampus,and neuronal synap-ses.Results Compared with the control group,the depression-like behaviors of the model group rats were significant.The expression of IL-1β,TLR4,and NL-RP3 in the hippocampus increased,while the expres-sion of PSD-95 and SYN decreased.Activation of NL-RP3 inflammasomes led to "sleeve like" pathological changes in the third ventricle,with hippocampal neu-rons undergoing apoptosis and significant damage to neuronal synaptic plasticity.Compared with the model group,after intervention with CCJJY,the expression of ROS,IL-1β,TLR4,and NLRP3 decreased,while the expression of AANAT,5-HT,PSD-95,and SYN in-creased.Pathological damage to the third ventricle and hippocampal neurons was repaired.Conclusion The CCJJY improves hippocampal synaptic plasticity dam-age in depression by regulating the TLR4/NLRP3 sig-naling pathway to inhibit central oxidative stress.

Infant formula milk powder(infant formula)contains a variety of fatty acids that require hydrolysis and derivation,and the calibration methods are complex and variable,affecting the accuracy of quantification.Using the gas chromatography with flame ionization detector(GC-FID)under internal standard and external standard calibration methods,the effects of using fatty acid methyl esters(FAMEs)and triacylglycerol(TAGs)as calibration solutions on determination of 19 kinds of fatty acids content in infant formula were compared in this work.Additionally,the differences in determination between the acetyl chloride methanol method and the hydrolysis extraction method using FAMEs as the calibration solution under internal standard method were also compared.The quantitative results of TAGs external standard quantitative method were significantly higher than those of FAMEs external standard quantitative method and FAMEs calibrator derived by methylation,and the deviation of quantitative results were 7%-20%and 2%-10%,respectively.The quantitative results of FAMEs calibrator added FAME internal standard were significantly higher than those of FAMEs calibrator added FAME internal standard derived from TAG methylation and FAMEs calibrator added TAG internal standard with methyl esterification,and the deviation of quantitative results were about 15%and 2%-5%,respectively.The results indicated that both the two methods of internal standard calibration using FAMEs as the calibration solution and external standard calibration using TAGs as the calibration solution could effectively eliminate the bias in the determination,with simple operation and accurate comparation of the results.However,the results were significantly lower under the external standard calibration using FAMEs as calibration solution.

Poor prognosis and high mortality rate are frequently observed in patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (R/R AML), and there is no standard salvage therapy for these patients. As a method to evade apoptosis, cancer cells often upregulate anti-apoptotic proteins BCL-2 and MCL-1. Recently, venetoclax-based combination therapies have demonstrated promising prospects in treating R/R AML. However, the prevalent use of venetoclax comes with a new challenge of resistance. Upregulation of BCL-1 and/or MCL-1 is the main cause of venetoclax resistance and preemptively targeting BCL-2/BCL-XL/MCL-1 can be used to delay or forestall drug resistance. Thus, selective targeting of BCL-2 and MCL-1 is a viable treatment strategy. This review reports the latest clinical progress on targeting BCL-2 and MCL-1 in R/R AML.

OBJECTIVE: Photodynamic therapy has become an important method in clinical tumor treatment. This study aimed to investigate the effects of hematoporphyrin on multiple myeloma (MM) and its potential applications. METHODS: The MM cell line RPMI 8226 was treated with hematoporphyrin derivative (HPD), and CCK-8 assay was used to determine cell viability, apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry, intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels were measured using a detection kit combined with flow cytometry, and Western blot assay was used to detect apoptosis-related proteins and key signaling pathway protein levels. RESULTS: The optimal incubation time for the maximum absorption of HPD in RPMI 8226 cells was 4 hours. HPD significantly inhibited the proliferation of RPMI 8226 cells in a dose- and illumination time-dependent manner ( r =0.981; r =0.961). Additionally, HPD induced apoptosis in RPMI 8226 cells, but had no significant inhibitory effect on peripheral blood mononuclear cells derived from healthy individuals. HPD combined with illumination treatment significantly increased the intracellular ROS level, upregulated the expression of apoptosis-related proteins such as cleaved PARP, cleaved caspase-3 and Bax, and down-regulated the expression of proteins that maintain cell survival, such as NF-κB and Akt. CONCLUSION The HPD can inhibit the proliferation and induce apoptosis of multiple myeloma cells.

Objective:To analyze the research progress and hotspots of clinical pathway informatization at home and abroad, and provide references and guidance for the construction of clinical pathway informatization in China.Methods:The relevant literature on clinical pathway informatization research were retrieved from China National Knowledge Infrastructure and Web of Science databases, which were published from January 1, 2000 to July 20, 2023. Bibliometric and thematic analysis methods were used to analyze the commonalities and differences in annual publication volume, high-frequency author collaboration networks, high-frequency keywords, and research hotspots of domestic and foreign literature.Results:This study included a total of 257 domestic literature and 174 foreign literature. The number of domestic publications had gradually increased since 2005, with the highest number in 2012 and a significant downward trend after 2015; The overall number of foreign publications was on the rise. Domestic high-frequency authors mostly came from medical institutions, while foreign high-frequency authors were mainly concentrated in universities and research institutes, and both had formed author collaboration networks. However, the research continuity of foreign authors were better than that of domestic authors. There were commonalities in the electronicization and semantics of clinical pathways, process design and management, disease management, and clinical decision support in relevant research hotspots at home and abroad, but there were significant differences in system integration, process design, pathway analysis, and disease management. Foreign related researches had the advantages of leading technology.Conclusions:There were certain similarities and differences in the research topics of clinical pathway informatization at home and abroad, and relevant studies abroad had shown certain frontiers in the application of new technologies. In the future, China should learn from international advanced experience, utilize emerging technologies such as machine learning and big language models, strengthen patient-centered, promote the precise and intelligent development of clinical pathway management, and improve the quality of medical services.
