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.

Enterococcus faecalis is distributed in the intestines and rarely becomes a pathogen of spinal infection. This article reports a case of delayed spinal enterococcus faecalis infection caused by transperineal prostate biopsy. The patient was found to have a serum tPSA level of 33.418 ng/ml during prostate cancer screening. A prostate biopsy was performed，and the pathological result was benign prostatic hyperplasia. One month after the operation，the patient presented with recurrent low back pain. Contrast-enhanced MRI of the lumbar spine showed infectious lesions of the T12 and L1 vertebrae with pathological compression fractures. A puncture biopsy of the diseased vertebra was performed，and the metagenomic test showed enterococcus faecalis infection. Anti-infection and bed rest conservative treatment were given. Follow-up for 1 year showed fracture healing and infection control.

Objective:To investigate the views of doctors on the incidence and treatment tactics of mild progression after epithelial growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor(EGFR-TKI)treatment in lung adenocarcinoma and provide suggestions to optimize the counter-measure strategies.Methods:Convenience sampling was used to conduct an online questionnaire survey for doctors specializing in onco-logy and respiratory diseases.Results:584 valid questionnaires were collected,and all the doctors expressed concerns regarding mild tumor progression after EGFR-TKI treatment.The coping strategies included maintaining the original TKI treatment,adding other treatments to the original TKI,changing the regimen,and performing secondary tissue biopsy,among which,most doctors chose to add other treatments to the original TKI.Conclusions:Doctors have noticed the enlargement of target lesions in still stable disease(SD)and most frequently chose to add other treatments to the original TKI as a coping strategy.This finding can provide a reference for framing future guidelines for large sample prospective clinical studies that are needed to find the most effective synergistic treatment options.

Objective:To review and summarize the experience of robot-assisted laparoscopic trans-plant nephrectomy,share the surgical steps and technical key points,and provide a reference for clinical practice.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the perioperative data of 5 patients who underwent robot-assisted laparoscopic donor nephrectomy at Peking University Third Hospital from August 2023 to December 2024.The surgical steps and key points were summarized.The continuous variables were described by medians(ranges).Results:A total of 5 patients were included in the analysis,of whom 2 were male and 3 were female.The median age of the patients was 37(31-68)years.The me-dian time from kidney transplantation to donor nephrectomy was 10(3-22)years.The indications for donor nephrectomy included recurrent hematuria,abdominal pain,malignant tumor of the transplanted kidney,and recurrent infection with hydronephrosis of the transplanted kidney.The excised transplanted kidneys from all the 5 patients had a single renal artery and a single renal vein.The median operation time was 212(145-351)min,the median blood loss was 300(20-500)mL,and the median post-operative hospital stay was 7(4-25)days.Only 1 patient experienced intraoperative complications,who experienced an external iliac artery injury during the operation and underwent suture repair.No pa-tient died during the perioperative period.Postoperative pathological results showed that 3 patients had end-stage non-functional kidneys,1 patient had BK virus-associated urothelial carcinoma,and 1 patient had chronic pyelonephritis with renal parenchymal atrophy.Conclusion:Robot-assisted laparoscopic transplant nephrectomy as a new surgical approach is feasible and safe.Compared with traditional open transplant nephrectomy,its advantage lies in the ability to directly observe and prioritize the management of the renal pedicle of the transplanted kidney,while completely freeing and removing the transplanted kidney outside the renal capsule.With the continuous accumulation of experience,this surgical technique is expected to become a powerful alternative to traditional open transplant nephrectomy.

Objective:To preliminarily investigate the applicability of a poliovirus pseudovirus-based neutralization assay in evaluating the immunogenicity of recombinant poliovirus vaccines and their in vivo potency in rats. Methods:Serum samples from rats immunized with recombinant poliovirus vaccines were tested using both the pseudovirus neutralization assay and the live-virus neutralization assay with Sabin strain. The consistency and correlation of the two methods were analyzed using the Kappa test and Spearman′s rank correlation.Results:For the neutralizing antibodies against typeⅠ, Ⅱ, and Ⅲ polioviruses, the Kappa values for consistency analysis of the two methods were 0.914, 1.000, and 0.751, respectively ( P<0.001), and the correlation coefficients ( R values) were 0.833, 0.927, and 0.859, respectively ( P<0.001). Conclusions:The test results of the two methods are consistent and show a good correlation, indicating that the pseudovirus neutralization assay can be applied to evaluating the immunogenicity of poliovirus vaccines and also can be used in rat potency tests.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the prevalence of norovirus causing sporadic acute gastroenteritis in China.Methods:Relevant articles on acute gastroenteritis caused by norovirus in China published between January 2010 and October 2023 were retrieved from Wanfang, CNKI and PubMed database. The articles met inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled in this study. Excel software and SPSS20.0 software were used for statistical analysis. The epidemiological features of sporadic cases of acute gastroenteritis caused by norovirus in China were summarized using descriptive statistical analysis.Results:A total of 500 articles were included in this study, involving 784 486 cases of acute gastroenteritis and 670 292 samples in 32 provinces and regions. Norovirus GⅡ was the predominant genogroup causing acute gastroenteritis in China in recent years, but there were significant differences in the distribution of genotypes and epidemic strains at different times. GⅡ.4 was the predominant genotype in each year, and GⅡ.4/2006b and GⅡ.4 /Sydney_2012 were the main epidemic strains. Norovirus-related diarrhea occurred throughout the year, especially between the months of October and December. The incidence of norovirus infection was high in children under five years old and varied in different regions.Conclusions:Norovirus GⅡ was the predominant genogroup causing norovirus-related sporadic acute gastroenteritis in China, but there was an obvious genetic evolutionary trend in the epidemic strains. Factors such as epidemic strains, season and geographical region should be considered when making strategies for the prevention and control of norovirus-related diarrhea and developing vaccines.
