Objective This study aims to explore the application value of spectral CT and perfusion CT parameters in the pathological classification and prognostic assessment of lung cancer.Methods A total of 94 lung cancer patients confirmed by pathology at Shanghai Chest Hospital from January 2023 to November 2024 were included in the study,including 49 cases of lung adenocarcinoma(LUAD),30 cases of lung squamous cell carci-noma(LUSC),and 15 cases of small cell lung cancer(SCLC).All patients underwent spectral CT combined with perfusion scanning using a 256-slice Revolution Apex from GE.Two radiologists independently measured the spectral and perfusion parameters of the three groups of images,including spectral curve slope(K),iodine concentration in the lesion area(ICL),effective atomic number(Zeff),surface permeability(PS),and perfusion index(PI),and established a lung cancer pathological subtype discrimination prediction model based on spectral CT radiomics features.All subjects were randomly divided into a training group and a validation group at a ratio of 3∶1.The discrimination efficacy of the spectral discrimination model between different pathological subtypes and the discrimination efficacy of arterial and venous phase images were compared in multiple dimensions.The performance of the model was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results Statistical analysis showed that the spectral curve slope,ICL,NIC,and Zeff of LUAD patients were significantly higher than those of LUSC and SCLC patients(P<0.05),while there were no significant differences in these parameters between LUSC and SCLC patients(P>0.05).Among the perfusion CT parameters,surface permeability(PS)showed significant differences among the three groups(P<0.05),while blood volume(BV),blood flow(BF),perfusion index(PI),time to peak(TTP),and mean transit time(MTT)did not show statistical differences.The multi-factor logistic regression model based on spectral parameters showed strong discriminatory performance:the area under the curve(AUC)of the LUAD and LUSC discrimination model was 0.806/0.77(training group/test group)in the arterial phase and 0.867/0.9(training group/test group)in the venous phase;the AUC of the LUAD and SCLC discrimination model was 0.885/0.883(training group/test group)in the arterial phase and 0.851/0.776(training group/test group)in the venous phase.Conclusion This study indicates that the multi-dimensional functional metabolic analysis indicators of spectral and perfusion CT imaging have significant value in the differential diagnosis of lung cancer pathological subtypes.The diagnostic model constructed by combining multiple spectral parameters can significantly improve the discrimination efficacy of lung adenocarcinoma,squamous cell carcinoma,and small cell lung cancer,providing precise imaging evidence for the formulation of individualized treatment plans.

Establishing occupational health related files is a key component of building an occupational health and safety management system in laboratory animal institutions.These files not only serve as a critical means of protecting the legitimate rights and interests of laboratory animal personnel but also provide institutional safeguards.According to relevant laws and regulations,laboratory animal institutions are responsible for establishing and properly maintaining occupational health surveillance files(also known as occupational hygiene files)for both the institution and its personnel.In accordance with the Occupational Health Archives Management Standards,laboratory animal institutions are required to maintain at least seven categories of occupational health management archive folders:the"three simultaneous"occupational health archives for construction projects;occupational health management folders;occupational health publicity and training folders;folders for monitoring and evaluating occupational disease hazard factors;employer occupational health surveillance folders;individual occupational health surveillance folders for employees;and other relevant folders.Building upon this foundation,the Regulations on the Supervision and Administration of Occupational Health in the Workplaces further specify detailed requirements for occupational health files.These include:documents outlining the responsibility system for occupational disease prevention and control;occupational hygiene management systems and standard operating procedures,lists of types of occupational disease hazard factors in workplaces,their distribution by job distribution,and records of work exposure,basic information on occupational disease prevention and emergency rescue facilities,along with records of their allocation,usage,maintenance,inspection and replacement;records concerning the provision,distribution,maintenance and replacement of personal protective equipment(PPE);and reports on occupational disease hazard incidents;and corresponding emergency response records—amounting to twelve specific requirements in total.In short,occupational health management files are a comprehensive collection of data and documentation related to workers'occupational health.Based on the author's practical experience,this paper outlines the main types of occupational health management files,their basic contents,and key points in their development.It also offers a detailed analysis of how to establish such files,aiming to support laboratory animal institutions in successfully developing occupational health management archives and improving their occupational health and safety management systems.

Lipophagy, the selective engulfment of lipid droplets (LDs) by autophagosomes for lysosomal degradation, is critical to lipid and energy homeostasis. Here we show that the lipid transfer protein ORP8 is located on LDs and mediates the encapsulation of LDs by autophagosomal membranes. This function of ORP8 is independent of its lipid transporter activity and is achieved through direct interaction with phagophore-anchored LC3/GABARAPs. Upon lipophagy induction, ORP8 has increased localization on LDs and is phosphorylated by AMPK, thereby enhancing its affinity for LC3/GABARAPs. Deletion of ORP8 or interruption of ORP8-LC3/GABARAP interaction results in accumulation of LDs and increased intracellular triglyceride. Overexpression of ORP8 alleviates LD and triglyceride deposition in the liver of ob/ob mice, and Osbpl8-/- mice exhibit liver lipid clearance defects. Our results suggest that ORP8 is a lipophagy receptor that plays a key role in cellular lipid metabolism.

Objective:To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of pilots with patent foramen ovale resulting in encephalomalacia foci and discuss the aeromedical assessment principles.Methods:The clinical manifestations, cranial MRI, cardiac ultrasound and transesophageal echocardiography of a pilot with patent foramen ovale and encephalomalacia foci were retrospectively analyzed, and the relevant literatures were reviewed.Results:The patient was a male fighter pilot, 28 years old, without clinical symptoms and complaints of discomfort. A left temporal pole arachnoid cyst (2.18 cm×1.11 cm) and a left frontal brain softening foci (1.80 cm×3.50 cm×3.30 cm) were detected by cranial MRI during physical examination, and patent foramen ovale was detected by transesophageal echocardiography and foam test after admission. The oval foramen was occluded under local anesthesia. The patient was well-recovered after surgery and without discomfort. The cardiac ultrasound recheck showed normal myocardial echoes in the septum and left ventricular wall, no abnormalities in wall thickness and motion amplitude, and coordinated ventricular wall motion. Strong echogenicity of the blocker was seen in the middle of the atrial septum, and the position of the blocker was normal. The aeromedical assessment conclusion of the patient was waiver to flight.Conclusions:The patent foramen ovale should be screened when pilot is diagnosed as encephalomalacia foci or cerebral infarction. The regular reexamination and follow-up should be conducted for the transcatheter occlusion of patent foramen ovale. Pilots could be waivered when they have no clinical symptoms and signs, no arrhythmias and at proper position in dynamic electrocardiogram and submaximal treadmill exercise test, no residual shunt, valve regurgitation, or occluder erosion in imaging examination, and normal cardiac function, reserve function, and regulatory function, normal pressurized breathing and without arrhythmias in centrifuge run, and the grounding observation period is not less than 6 months.

LIN28 is an RNA binding protein with important roles in early embryo development, stem cell differentiation/reprogramming, tumorigenesis and metabolism. Previous studies have focused mainly on its role in the cytosol where it interacts with Let-7 microRNA precursors or mRNAs, and few have addressed LIN28's role within the nucleus. Here, we show that LIN28 displays dynamic temporal and spatial expression during murine embryo development. Maternal LIN28 expression drops upon exit from the 2-cell stage, and zygotic LIN28 protein is induced at the forming nucleolus during 4-cell to blastocyst stage development, to become dominantly expressed in the cytosol after implantation. In cultured pluripotent stem cells (PSCs), loss of LIN28 led to nucleolar stress and activation of a 2-cell/4-cell-like transcriptional program characterized by the expression of endogenous retrovirus genes. Mechanistically, LIN28 binds to small nucleolar RNAs and rRNA to maintain nucleolar integrity, and its loss leads to nucleolar phase separation defects, ribosomal stress and activation of P53 which in turn binds to and activates 2C transcription factor Dux. LIN28 also resides in a complex containing the nucleolar factor Nucleolin (NCL) and the transcriptional repressor TRIM28, and LIN28 loss leads to reduced occupancy of the NCL/TRIM28 complex on the Dux and rDNA loci, and thus de-repressed Dux and reduced rRNA expression. Lin28 knockout cells with nucleolar stress are more likely to assume a slowly cycling, translationally inert and anabolically inactive state, which is a part of previously unappreciated 2C-like transcriptional program. These findings elucidate novel roles for nucleolar LIN28 in PSCs, and a new mechanism linking 2C program and nucleolar functions in PSCs and early embryo development.
