Objective To observe the effect of knee isometric training on mild to moderate lower limb muscle spasticity in stroke patients.Methods A total of 130 stroke hemiplegia patients were prospectively included in this study.They were admitted to Xiangcheng People's Hospital of Suzhou City between August 2021 and December 2023 and numbered according to the order of collection.The patients were then randomly assigned to either the control group or the isokinetic group using a random number table.Each group consisted of 65 cases.Both groups underwent conventional rehabilitation training(5 days a week,40 minutes per day),with the isokinetic group receiving additional isokinetic muscle training(5 days a week,20 minutes per day)on top of the conventional rehabilitation training.The treatment period lasted for 6 weeks.The surface electromyographic signals of the rectus femoris muscle on the affected side were analyzed for their root-mean-square(RMS),integral electromyographic(iEMG)values,the modified Ashworth scale(MAS)scores,knee flexors and extensors peak torque and its ratio,the Fugl-Meyer assessment scale-lower extremity(FMA-LE)scores,and the 10 m walk test were used before and after the treatments to compare the surface electromyography of rectus femoris,the degree of muscle spasticity and exercise capacity of the lower extremities of the two groups.Results Prior to treatment,there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of the RMS of the rectus femoris muscle,iEMG values,MAS scores,peak torque of the flexor and extensor muscles and their ratio,FMA-LE score,and step speed(all P＞0.05).RMS of the rectus femoris muscle,iEMG values,MAS scores,peak torque of the knee flexors and extensors and their ratios,FMA-LE scores,and step speed improved in control group after treatment compared to before treatment([12.3±2.2]μV vs.[15.5± 2.9]μV,[24.8±2.3]μV·s vs.[29.2±3.1]μV·s,[1.34±0.15]points vs.[1.56± 0.25]points,[20.8±3.4]N·m vs.[12.3±2.5]N·m,[34.5±2.3]N·m vs.[26.3±3.6]N·m,0.60±0.16 vs.0.47±0.14,[26.1±2.9]points vs.[21.3±2.4]points,[0.61±0.14]m/s vs.[0.46±0.15]m/s;all P＜0.05).Rectus femoris muscle RMS,iEMG values,MAS scores,peak torque of the flexor and extensor muscles and their ratio,FMA-LE scores and step speed after treatment in the isokinetic group were(10.9±1.8)μV,(22.4±2.1)μV·s,(1.25±0.18)points,(28.7±3.0)N·m,(41.5±2.8)N·m,0.69±0.18,(29.0±2.3)points,(0.69±0.18)m/s,compared with pretreatment(respectively[15.4±2.2]μV,[29.6±3.0]μV·s,[1.58±0.34]points,[12.6± 2.3]N·m,[26.1±3.1]N·m,0.48±0.17,[21.5±2.1]points,[0.48±0.17]m/s)and control group after treatment,the differences were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).Before treatment,the differences in rectus femoris muscle RMS and iEMG values between patients with mild spasticity and patients with moderate spasticity in the isokinetic group and the corresponding patients with mild spasticity and moderate spasticity within the control group were not statistically significant(all P＞0.05).After treatment,the rectus femoris muscle RMS and iEMG values in patients with mild spasticity within the isokinetic group([10.2±1.0]μV and[20.2±2.0]μV·s,respectively)were statistically different from those before treatment([14.1±2.3]μV and[28.1±3.2]μV·s,respectively)and those after treatment in patients with mild spasticity within the control group([11.4±1.7]μV and[23.6±2.5]μV·s respectively;all P＜0.05);the rectus femoris muscle RMS and iEMG values in patients with moderate spasticity within the isokinetic group improved compared with the pre-treatment period([11.8±1.5]μV vs.[16.9±2.6)μV,and[24.9±2.2]μV·s vs.[31.3±3.8]μV·s,respectively;both P＜0.05),and with the control group after treatment(RMS and iEMG values of[13.2±2.5]μV and[26.1± 2.7]μV·s,respectively),the difference in RMS was statistically significant(P＜0.01),and the difference in iEMG values was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).Conclusion Isokinetic muscle training has a positive effect on improving mild-to-moderate muscle spasticity of the lower limb knee extension,and the effect is more significant the lighter the degree of spasticity.

Objective:To study the clinical characteristics of neonatal leukemoid reaction (NLR).Methods:The newborns with NLR admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit of the Seventh Medical Center of PLA General Hospital from September 2010 to January 2022 were selected as the observation group, and the newborns without NLR, who were admitted to the Hospital at the same time and matched with gestational age and birth weight of the NLR newborns were selected as the control group at a ratio of 1∶2. The gestational age, birth weight, maternal complications, maximum leukocyte count, percentage of neutrophils, C-reactive protein, hemoglobin, platelet count, disease diagnosis and other relevant information of the newborns were recorded, and SPSS 21.0 statistical software was applied to compare the data of the two groups of newborns.Results:A total of 36 cases were in the observation group and 72 cases in the control group. Naive granulocytes were found in the peripheral blood of all patients in the observation group, and leukocyte count was higher than that of the control group [61.7 (54.2, 90.6)×10 9/L vs. 19.6 (14.2,27.3)×10 9/L], the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001), but there was no statistically significant difference in the percentage of neutrophils, hemoglobin, platelets, and C-reactive protein between the two groups ( P>0.05). The proportion of vaginal delivery, meconium-stained amniotic fluid, and neonatal sepsis in the observation group were higher than that in the control group [69.4% (25/36) vs. 38.9% (28/72), 19.4% (7/36) vs. 5.6% (4/72), 47.2% (17/36) vs. 8.3% (6/72)], and the proportion of gestational diabetes mellitus, gestational hypertension and prenatal use of glucocorticoid was lower than that in the control group, with statistical significance ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of premature rupture of membranes, neonatal asphyxia, intracranial hemorrhage, pulmonary hemorrhage, bacterial meningitis, and bronchopulmonary dysplasia between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Newborns with NLR are frequently complicated with sepsis. Early prevention and treatment of maternal comorbidities and active control of infection are important for the prevention and treatment of NLR.

Objective:To study the expression level of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) in combined hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma (cHCC-CCA) and its correlation with the clinical characteristics and prognosis.Methods:The clinical data of 75 patients with cHCC-CCA undergoing surgery in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital from January 2011 to December 2019, including 61 males and 14 females, with a median age of 55 years (36 to 77). Immunohistochemistry was conducted to determine the PD-L1 expression in tumor. The status of PD-L1 expression, clinicopathological data and prognosis of patients were analyzed.Results:In low-differentiated cHCC-CCA tissues, the proportion of PD-L1 expression (21.1%, 8/38) was higher than that in moderately to well-differentiated cHCC-CCA tissues (2.70%, 1/37, χ2=4.366, P=0.037). The median disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS)of PD-L1 positive patients were 12.3 and 15.1 months, respectively, lower than those of PD-L1 negative patients (14.4 and 23.3 months). The difference of DFS was statistically significant ( χ2=4.052, P=0.044). In multivariate analysis, major vascular invasion (DFS: HR=1.965, 95% CI: 1.119-3.450, P=0.019; OS: HR=1.781, 95% CI: 1.022-3.105, P=0.042) and lymph node metastasis (DFS: HR=2.451, 95% CI: 1.1033-5.814, P=0.042; OS: HR=2.652, 95% CI: 1.120-6.279, P=0.027) were identified as independent prognostic factors affecting DFS and OS. Conclusions:The proportion of PD-L1 positive is higher inthe low-differentiated cHCC-CCA tissue compared to that in moderately to well-differentiated cHCC-CCA. The major vascular invasion and lymph node metastasis are independent factors affecting the prognosis of patients with cHCC-CCA.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of clinical radiomics model based on nnU-Net for the prognosis of gallbladder carcinoma (GBC).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 168 patients who underwent curative-intent radical resection of GBC in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from January 2012 to December 2020 were collected. There were 61 males and 107 females, aged (64±11)years. All the 168 patients who underwent preoperative enhanced computed tomography (CT) examina-tion were randomly divided into 126 cases in training set and 42 cases in test set according to the ratio of 3:1 based on random number table. For the portal venous phase images, 2 radiologists manually delineated the region of interest (ROI), and constructed a nnU-net model to automatically segment the images. The 5-fold cross-validation and Dice similarity coefficient were used to evaluate the generalization ability and predictive performance of the nnU-net model. The Python software (version 3.7.10) and Pyradiomics toolkit (version 3.0.1) were used to extract the radiomics features, the R software (version 4.1.1) was used to screen the radiomics features, and the variance method, Pearson correlation analysis, one-way COX analysis and random survival forest model were used to screen important radiomics features and calculate the Radiomics score (Radscore). X-tile software (version 3.6.1) was used to determine the best cut-off value of Radscore, and COX proportional hazard regression model was used to analyze the independent factors affecting the prognosis of patients. The training set data were imported into R software (version 4.1.1) to construct a clinical radiomics nomogram model of survival prediction for GBC. Based on the Radscore and the independent clinical factors affecting the prognosis of patients, the Radscore risk model and the clinical model for predicting the survival of GBC were constructed respectively. The C-index, calibration plot and decision curve analysis were used to evaluate the predictive ability of different survival prediction models for GBC. Observation indicators: (1) segmentation results of portal venous phase images in CT examination of GBC; (2) radiomic feature screening and Radscore calculation; (3) prognostic factors analysis of patients after curative-intent radical resection of GBC; (4) construction and evaluation of different survival prediction models for GBC. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented by Mean± SD. Count data were expressed as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the chi-square test. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed using the COX proportional hazard regression model. The postoperative overall survival rate was calculated by the life table method. Results:(1) Segmentation results of portal venous phase images in CT examination of GBC: the Dice similarity coefficient of the ROI based on the manual segmentation and nnU-Net segmentation models was 0.92±0.08 in the training set and 0.74±0.15 in the test set, respectively. (2) Radiomic feature screening and Radscore calculation: 1 502 radiomics features were finally extracted from 168 patients. A total of 13 radiomic features (3 shape features and 10 high-order features) were screened by the variance method, Pearson correlation analysis, one-way COX analysis and random survival forest model. Results of random survival forest model analysis and X-tile software analysis showed that the best cut-off values of the Radscore were 6.68 and 25.01. A total of 126 patients in the training set were divided into 41 cases of low-risk (≤6.68), 72 cases of intermediate-risk (>6.68 and <25.01), and 13 cases of high-risk (≥25.01). (3) Prognostic factors analysis of patients after curative-intent radical resection of GBC: the 1-, 2-, and 3-year overall survival rates of 168 patients were 75.8%, 54.9% and 45.7%, respectively. The results of univariate analysis showed that preopera-tive jaundice, serum CA19-9 level, Radscore risk (medium risk and high risk), extent of surgical resection, pathological T staging, pathological N staging, tumor differentiation degree (moderate differentiation and low differentiation) were related factors affecting prognosis of patients in the training set ( hazard ratio=3.28, 3.00, 3.78, 6.34, 4.48, 6.43, 3.35, 7.44, 15.11, 95% confidence interval as 1.91?5.63, 1.76?5.13, 1.76?8.09, 2.49?16.17, 2.30?8.70, 1.57?26.36, 1.96?5.73, 1.02?54.55, 2.04?112.05, P<0.05). Results of multivariate analysis showed that preoperative jaundice, serum CA19-9 level, Radscore risk as high risk and pathological N staging were independent influencing factors for prognosis of patients in the training set ( hazard ratio=2.22, 2.02, 2.89, 2.07, 95% confidence interval as 1.20?4.11, 1.11?3.68, 1.04?8.01, 1.15?3.73, P<0.05). (4) Construction and evaluation of different survival prediction models for GBC. Clinical radiomics model, Radscore risk model and clinical model were established based on the independent influencing factors for prognosis, the C-index of which was 0.775, 0.651 and 0.747 in the training set, and 0.759, 0.633, 0.739 in the test set, respectively. The calibration plots showed that the Radscore risk model, clinical model and clinical radiomics model had good predictive ability for prognosis of patients. The decision curve analysis showed that the prognostic predictive ability of the clinical radiomics model was better than that of the Radscore risk and clinical models. Conclusion:The clinical radiomics model based on the nnU-Net has a good predictive performance for prognosis of GBC.

Objective:To investigate the establishment and application value of a radio-mics prediction model for lymph node metastasis of gallbladder carcinoma based on dual-phase enhanced computed tomography (CT).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 194 patients with gallbladder carcinoma who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from January 2012 to December 2020 were collected. There were 70 males and 124 females, aged (64±10)years. All patients underwent curative-intent resection of gallbladder carcinoma. A total of 194 patients were randomly divided into 156 cases in training set and 38 cases in test set according to the ratio of 8:2 based on random number method in R software. The training set was used to establish a diagnostic model, and the test set was used to validate the diagnostic model. After the patients undergoing CT examination, image analysis was performed, radiomics features were extracted, and a radiomics model was established. Based on clinicopathological data, a nomogram prediction model was established. Observation indicators: (1) lymph node dissection and histopathological examination results; (2) establishment and characteristic analysis of a radiomics prediction model; (3) analysis of influencing factors for lymph node metastasis of gallbladder carcinoma; (4) establishment of a nomogram prediction model for lymph node metastasis; (5) comparison of the predictive ability between the radiomics prediction model and nomogram prediction model for lymph node metastasis. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were expressed as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was performed by the chi-square test. Univariate analysis was conducted by the chi-square test, and multivariate analysis was performed by the Logistic regression model forward method. The receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn, and the area under curve, decision curve, confusion matrix were used to evaluate the predictive ability of prediction models. Results:(1) Lymph node dissection and histopathological examination results. Of the 194 patients, 182 cases underwent lymph node dissection, with the number of lymph node dissected as 8(range, 1?34) per person and the number of positive lymph node as 0(range, 0?11) per person. Postoperative histopathological examination results of 194 patients: 122 patients were in stage N0, with the number of lymph node dissected as 7(range, 0?27) per person, 48 patients were in stage N1, with the number of lymph node dissected as 8(range, 2?34) per person and the number of positive lymph node as 1(range, 1?3) per person, 24 patients were in stage N2, with the number of lymph node dissected as 11(range, 2?20) per person and the number of positive lymph node as 5(range, 4?11) per person. (2) Establishment and characteristic analysis of a radiomics prediction model. There were 107 radiomics features extracted from 194 patients, including 18 first-order features, 14 shape features and 75 texture features. According to the intra-group correlation coefficient and absolute median difference of each radiomics feature, mutual information, Select K-Best, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression were conducted to further reduce dimensionality. By further combining 5 different machine learning algorithms including random forest, gradient boosting secession tree, support vector machine (SVM), K-Nearest Neighbors and Logistic regression, the result showed that the Select K-Best_SVM model had the best predictive performance after analysis, with the area under receiver operating characteristic curve as 0.76 in the test set. (3) Analysis of influencing factors for lymph node metastasis of gallbladder carcinoma. Results of univariate analysis showed that systemic inflammation response index, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), CA19-9, CA125, radiological T staging and radiological lymph node status were related factors for lymph node metastasis of patients with gallbladder cancer ( χ2=4.20, 11.39, 5.68, 11.79, 10.83, 18.58, P<0.05). Results of multivariate analysis showed that carcinoembryonic antigen, CA125, radiological T staging (stage T3 versus stage T1?2, stage T4 versus stage T1?2), radiological lymph node status were independent influencing factors for lymph node metastasis of patients with gallbladder carcinoma [ hazard ratio=2.79, 4.41, 5.62, 5.84, 3.99, 95% confidence interval ( CI) as 1.20?6.47, 1.81?10.74, 1.50?21.01, 1.02?33.31, 1.87?8.55, P<0.05]. (4) Establishment of a nomogram prediction model for lymph node metastasis. A nomogram prediction model was established based on the 4 independent influencing factors for lymph node metastasis of gallbladder carcinoma, including CEA, CA125, radiological T staging and radiological lymph node status. The concordance index of the nomogram model was 0.77 (95% CI as 0.75?0.79) in the training set and 0.73 (95% CI as 0.68?0.72) in the test set, respectively. (5) Comparison of the predictive ability between the radiomics predic-tion model and nomogram prediction model for lymph node metastasis. The receiver operating characteristic curve showed that the areas under the curve of Select K-Best_SVM radiomics model were 0.75 (95% CI as 0.74?0.76) in the training set and 0.76 (95% CI as 0.75?0.78) in the test set, respectively. The areas under the curve of nomogram prediction model were 0.77 (95% CI as 0.76?0.78) in the training set and 0.70 (95% CI as 0.68?0.72) in the test set, respectively. The decision curve analysis showed that Select K-Best_SVM radiomics model and nomogram prediction model had a similar ability to predict lymph node metastasis. The confusion matrix showed that Select K-Best_SVM radiomics model had the sensitivity as 64.29% and 75.00%, the specificity as 73.00% and 59.09% in the training set and test set, respectively. The nomogram had the sensitivity as 51.79% and 50.00%, the specificity as 80.00% and 72.27% in the training set and test set, respectively. Conclusion:A dual-phase enhanced CT imaging radiomics prediction model for lymph node metastasis of gallbladder carcinoma is successfully established, and its predictive ability is good and consistent with that of nomogram.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the genetic basis for a child with Rothmund-Thomson syndrome (RTS). METHODS: The child has featured poikeloderma, short stature, cataract, sparse hair and skeletal malformation. Peripheral blood samples of the child and her family members were collected and subjected to whole exome sequencing. Candidate variants were verified by Sanger sequencing. RESULTS: The child was found to harbor compound heterozygous variants of the RECQL4 gene, namely c.1048_1049delAG and c.2886-1G>A, among which c.2886-1G>A was unreported previously. According to the ACMG guidelines, the c.1048_1049delAG was predicted to be pathogenic (PVS1+PM3_Strong+PM2), while the c.2886-1G>A was predicted to be likely pathogenic (PVS1+PM2). CONCLUSION The compound heterozygous variants of the RECQL4 gene probably underlay the pathogenesis of RTS in this patient. Above finding has enriched the mutational spectrum of the RECQL4 gene.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of SpyGlass-guided laser lithotripsy for large common bile duct (CBD) stones with diameter>2 cm.Methods:From August 2015 to August 2018, a total of 157 patients with large CBD stones at the First Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University who met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into SpyGlass group ( n=78, underwent SpyGlass-guided laser lithotripsy) and laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) group ( n=79, underwent LCBDE) by using random numbers. Non-inferiority test was used for rates of one-time stone removal and total stone removal, and the non-inferiority margin was set to 10%. The transform rate, incidence of short-term complications, hospital stay, and quality of life (assessed by the gastrointestinal quality of life index) were compared between the two groups. Results:The total success rates of stone clearance were 92.3% (72/78) and 96.2% (76/79) in the SpyGlass group and LCBDE group, respectively ( P=0.023), with valid non-inferiority hypothesis. The one-time stone removal rates were 83.3% (65/78) and 96.2% (76/79), respectively ( P=0.124), with invalid non-inferiority hypothesis. There were no significant differences in the incidence of transform [7.7% (6/78) VS 3.8% (3/79), P=0.294] or short-term complications [5.1% (4/78) VS 10.1% (8/79), P=0.246] between the two groups. Compared with the LCBDE group, the SpyGlass group had a shorter hospital stay (5.65±0.94 d VS 8.84±1.54 d, P=0.001) and higher scores of gastrointestinal quality of life index (1 month after operation: 99.85±4.36 VS 91.51±5.47, P=0.001; 3 months after operation: 131.24±3.32 VS 112.32±7.77, P=0.001). Conclusion:For large CBD stones, the efficacy of SpyGlass-guided laser lithotripsy is not inferior to LCBDE, and it is less invasive. In the future, SpyGlass-guided laser lithotripsy could be an important option for the treatment of large CBD stones.
