Objective To investigate the correlations of fibrinogen-to-albumin ratio(Fib/Alb),soluble myeloid cell triggering receptor-like transcript factor-1(sTLT-1)and neutrophil gelatinase-as-sociated lipocalin(NGAL)in peripheral blood at admission with the risk of poor prognosis in patients with acute thoracoabdominal trauma and their early warning values.Methods A prospective study was conducted in 152 patients with acute thoracoabdominal trauma in the hospital from January 2022 to May 2024.The patients were divided into good prognosis group(n=120)and poor prognosis group(n=32)according to their prognosis.Baseline data and the levels of Fib/Alb,sTLT-1 and NGAL in peripheral blood at admission were compared between the two groups.The relationships between the levels of Fib/Alb,sTLT-1,and NGAL in peripheral blood at admission and the severity of trauma[the Circulation,Respiration,Abdomen,Movement,and Speech(CRAMS)score]and the risk of poor prognosis were analyzed.The early warning values of the levels of Fib/Alb,sTLT-1 and NGAL in peripheral blood at admission for the risk of poor prognosis were evaluated.Results The time from injury to admission in the poor prognosis group was longer than that in the good prognosis group,the CRAMS score,the Glasgow Coma Scale(GCS)score,and the levels of Fib,Alb and Fib/Alb in peripheral blood at admission in the poor prognosis group were lower than those in the good prognosis group,while the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment(SOFA)score and the levels of sTLT-1 and NGAL in peripheral blood at admission were higher than those in the good prognosis group,with statistically significant between-group differences(P<0.05).The levels of Fib,Alb and Fib/Alb in peripheral blood at admission showed a decreasing trend,while the levels of sTLT-1 and NGAL showed an increasing trend in patients with mild,severe,and extremely severe trauma,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that the level of Fib/Alb in peripheral blood at admission(r=0.839)was positively correlated with the CRAMS score,while the levels of sTLT-1 and NGAL(r=-0.832,-0.808)were negatively cor-related with the CRAMS score(P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for confounding factors,the levels of Fib/Alb(OR=0.769),sTLT-1(OR=1.562)and NGAL(OR=1.575)in peripheral blood at admission were still independently correlated with the risk of poor prognosis(P<0.05).The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve showed that the area under the curve(AUC)for the combined early warning of the risk of poor prognosis by the levels of Fib/Alb,sTLT-1,and NGAL in peripheral blood at admission was 0.918,which was superior to the early warning value of individual indicators(Z=2.992,2.291,2.082,P<0.05).Conclusion The levels of Fib/Alb,sTLT-1 and NGAL in peripheral blood are closely related to the severity of trauma and prognosis in patients with acute thoracoabdominal trauma.Combined detection has a certain ear-ly warning value for the risk of poor prognosis and can be used as potential factors for clinical assess-ment of trauma condition and early warning of the risk of poor prognosis.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of Shen Mai injection in the treatment of lung injury induced by radiotherapy in patients with advanced breast cancer. Methods 80 cases with lung injury induced by radiotherapy in patients with advanced breast cancer from our hospital from 2015.1 to 2016.5 were selected and randomly divided into 2 groups, 40 cases in control group were given routine treatment, 40 cases in the experimental group were treated based on the control group treated with Shenmai injection treatment, and 2 groups were treated for 4 weeks. The pulmonary function, T lymphocyte subsets, clinical symptoms, quality of life scores and clinical efficacy were observed before and after treatment in two groups. The results were analyzed by statistical software SPSS 19.0. Results Compared with before treatment, levels of FVC, FEV1 and TLC in 2 groups after treatment elevated, scores of respiratory symptoms, activities, and daily life effect decreased, levels of serum CD3+, CD4+, CD4+/CD8+elevated, levels of CD8+ decreased, and compared with the control group, levels of FVC, FEV1, TLC, CD3+, CD4+, CD4+/CD8+ in the experimental group were higher, scores of respiratory symptoms, activities, and daily life effect were lower, clinical effect rate was higher, the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion Shen Mai injection can effectively improve lung function and immunity, improve respiratory symptoms and improve the quality of life in patients with advanced breast cancer radiotherapy for lung injury, and has better clinical efficacy.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of Addie on cardiac injury induced by radiotherapy and chemotherapy in patients with cervical cancer.Methods 74 cases of cervical cancer were collected from the oncology department of Zhousha Hospital, those were treated with surgery and radiotherapy and chemotherapy according to postoperative staging and classification of cases.The patients were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group, with 37 cases in each group.Control group received leukogenic and antiemetic treatment,the experimental group were given Addie injection 100 mL intravenous drip on the basis of the control group, one times per day,10 days as one courses, and two groups were all received 6 courses of treatment.Atthe end of treatment, the condition of heart function, left ventricular ejection fraction, left ventricular end diastolic diameter, 6 minutes walk test, myocardial enzymes, troponin T, C reactive protein /Barhel quality of life score index, EORTC-QLQ score and the incidence of adverse reactions were detected and compared with two groups.Results After treatment, the cardiac function of the experimental group was significantly better than that of the control group (P<0.05).After treatment,LVEDD of two groups decreased (P<0.05), LVEF, 6 minutes walk test distance increased (P<0.05),and LVEDD of experimental group was lower than control group (P<0.05), LVEF, 6 minutes walk test distance higher (P<0.05).After treatment, creatine kinase and creatine kinase levels were increased in two groups (P<0.05).Compared with the control group, the level of creatine kinase and creatine kinase in experimental group were higher(P <0.05).After treatment,the levels of troponin T and C reactive protein in two groups were decreased ( P <0.05 ) .Compared with the control group, the levels of troponin T and C reactive protein in experimental group were lower (P<0.05).After treatment,the scores of Barhel index and EORTC-QLQ score of two groups were significantly higher than before treatment, and the quality of life of the experimental group was significantly higher than that of control group ( P <0.05 ) .There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between two groups.Conclusion Addie has an obvious protective effect on cardiac injury induced by radiotherapy and chemotherapy in patients with cervical cancer, and can improve the quality of life of patients.

AIM: To predict MHC class Ⅰ binding peptides by using neural network ensembles. METHODS: As a combination of neural networks, neural network ensemble (NNE) was here used to improve the predictive performance. Based on a database of 628 nonamers and their classified binding capacities, the generalized NNEs were used to classify peptides respectively with non, low, moderate and high binding capacities to MHC class I molecule encoded by gene HLA-A*0201. The predictive power of NNE was further evaluated by running generalized NNE on a set of actual T-cell epitopes. RESULTS: The generalized NNEs achieved an average predictive hit rate of 0.8 for the above classifications. In addition, NNE was also efficient in the prediction of the potential T-cell epitopes, and about 84% of the actual T-cell epitopes were among the potentially antigenic peptides with high and moderate affinities. CONCLUSION: The NNEs can be applied in the prediction of MHC class Ⅰ binding peptides, and moreover, after proper modifications, they can be conveniently extended to cover peptides with any length and thus suitable for the prediction of peptides binding to other MHC class Ⅰ or even class Ⅱ molecules.
