Objective To explore the safety of Yttrium-90 resin microsphere selective internal radiation therapy (90Y-SIRT) on malignant liver tumors. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 64 patients with malignant liver tumors who underwent 90Y-SIRT from February 2023 to November 2024 at Weifang People’s Hospital. The clinical characteristics of the patients and the occurrence of adverse reactions after treatment were analyzed to assess the safety of 90Y-SIRT. Results Among the 64 patients, there were 52 males (81.25%) and 12 females (18.75%); the average age was (56.29±11.08) years. Seven patients (10.94%) had tumors with maximum diameter of less than 5 cm, 38 patients (59.38%) had tumors with maximum diameter of 5-10 cm, and 19 patients (29.68%) had tumors with maximum diameter of greater than 10 cm. There were 47 cases (73.44%) of solitary lesions and 17 cases (26.56%) of multiple lesions; 53 cases (82.81%) were primary liver cancers and 11 cases (17.19%) were metastatic liver cancers. Of the 64 patients, 63 successfully completed the Technetium-99m macroaggregated albumin (99mTc-MAA) perfusion test and received the 90Y-SIRT; one patient received 90Y-SIRT after the second 99mTc-MAA perfusion test due to a work error. The most common adverse reactions included grade 1 alanine aminotransferase (ALT) elevation in 26 cases (40.62%) and grade 2 in 2 cases (9.37%), grade 1 aspartate aminotransferase (AST) elevation in 27 cases (42.18%) and grade 2 in 7 cases (10.93%); grade 1 nausea in 17 cases (26.56%) and grade 2 in 6 cases (9.37%); grade 1 abdominal pain in 12 cases (18.75%), grade 2 in 5 cases (7.81%), and grade 3 in 1 case (1.56%); grade 1 vomiting in 11 cases (17.18%), grade 2 in 5 cases (7.81%), and grade 3 in 1 case (1.56%). Conclusion The adverse reactions of 90Y-SIRT for treating malignant liver tumors are mild, indicating good safety.

Objective:To explore the current status of rumination in inpatients with metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa) under the disease coping mechanism, and analyzing its influencing factors.Methods:From March 2021 to December 2022, 267 mPCa inpatients at the Tenth People's Hospital of Tongji University were selected as the study subject using convenience sampling. The survey was conducted using the General Information Questionnaire, Chinese Version of Event Relate Rumination Inventory (C-ERI), Medical Coping Modes Questionnaire (MCMQ), International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), and Social Support Revalued Scale (SSRS), and the factors influencing the rumination in patients were analyzed.Results:This study collected 260 valid questionnaires, with an effective response rate of 97.4% (260/267). The total score of rumination in 260 mPCa patients was (31.08±6.46), with invasive rumination and purposeful rumination scores of (14.13±4.44) and (16.95±4.55), respectively. The initial prostate-specific antigen index, confrontation medical coping modes were the influencing factors of invasive rumination in mPCa patients ( P<0.05). The initial prostate-specific antigen index, course of disease, social support, and confrontation medical coping style were the influencing factors of purposeful rumination in mPCa patients ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The rumination of mPCa patients is above the medium level, and is influenced by multiple factors under the disease coping mechanism. Clinical medical and nursing staff should combine the clinical situation and characteristics of mPCa patients, provide personalized interventions as early as possible, and assist patients in improving their positive cognitive processing abilities.

Radiomics and radiogenomics are used to provide comprehensive tumor biological characte-ristics and further clinical information by extracting,screening and analyzing the most valuable quantitative ra-diomics features. In recent years,numerous studies have shown that radiomics plays a role in the diagnosis, treatment and predicting efficacy and prognosis of lung cancer. Radiogenomics shows a great value in the pre-diction of lung cancer gene phenotype and individualized precision treatment by combining radiomics features with genomics,proteomics and so on. Radiomics and radiogenomics are non-invasive,quantitative,and repro-ducible,and they can provide multidirectional tumor biological characteristics,which are expected to be widely used in the precise medical treatment of lung cancer in the future.

Objective:
To evaluate the clinical performance of HPV genotyping with cytology for detecting cervical precancer among women attending co-testing.
Methods:
A total of 2 883 females who participated in cervical cancer screening program were recruited from Erdos in 2016. All the participants were tested by cytology and HPV genotyping. In 2017, women with abnormal cytology results or HPV positive were followed up. Pathological cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) 2+ was the study end-point. Clinical performance indexes were calculated, including sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, referral rate and missed cases.
Results:
INNO-LiPA resulted in a detection rate of 18.87%(544/2 883) for the 14-type high risk HPV. HPV16 was the most common infectious genotype (4.06%), followed by HPV52 (3.61%), HPV51 (2.50%), HPV58 (1.98%), and HPV18 (1.56%). With more HPV genotypes added into the group, sensitivity increased and the specificity decreased. Addition of HPV16, 58, 33, 39, 52, 18, 31 for detection lead to the maximun value of area under the curve (AUC)=0.913 (95%

Objective To investigate the incidence and related factors of postoperative hemorrhage, so as to provide data support for preventing its occurrence and developing reasonable risk assessment tools. Methods The retrospective analysis of clinical data of 50 patients with postoperative hemorrhage after surgical operation in a 3A hospital in Shanghai from January to December 2016 was conducted. A 1:2 matching case-control study was conducted to explore the risk factors of postoperative bleeding in surgical patients by univariate and multivariate regression analysis.Results The total number of surgical operations (excluding obstetrics and gynecology, five senses) was 18942. Postoperative hemorrhage occurred in 50 cases, including 6 deaths. The incidence of postoperative hemorrhage was 0.26% and the mortality rate was 12%. The incidence of postoperative bleeding in the top four departments were gastrointestinal surgery (13 cases), hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery (11 cases), cardiac surgery (10 cases), neurosurgery (9 cases). The statistical analysis of binary Logistic in the case group and the control group showed that postoperative albumin<35g/L, postoperative AST abnormality, postoperative ALT abnormality, postoperative hypertension were independent risk factors of postoperative bleeding.Conclusions The incidence of postoperative bleeding in this hospital is relativelylow, but the mortality is relatively high. Medical staff should pay more attention to the patients undergoing gastrointestinal, liver, pancreas, heart and brain surgery. It is also necessary to pay more attention to the blood pressure, albumin and liver function of the patients after operation,and establish the evaluation of prevention of hemorrhage, which has a certain early warning effect on the prevention of postoperative hemorrhage.
