Objective To investigate the influence of a disintegrin and metalloproteinase 12(ADAM12),S100 calcium binding protein A8(S100A8),and serum tumor markers on chemotherapy outcomes and prognosis in patients with triple-negative breast cancer.Methods A totla of 300 patients with breast cancer admitted between January 2020 and January 2021 were included.Based on pathological immunohistochemistry findings,the patients were divided into a triple-negative group(n=98,triple-negative breast cancer)and a non-triple-negative group(n=202,non-triple-negative breast cancer).Serum tumor markers(carcinoembryonic antigen[CEA]and carbohydrate antigen 125[CA125]),the levels of ADAM12 and S100A8,and tissue protein expression levels of ADAM12 and S100A8 were compared between the two groups.The relationship between the protein levels of ADAM12 and S100A8 in the cancer tissues and the clinicopathological characteristics of the triple-negative group was analyzed.Differences in the protein levels of ADAM12 and S100A8 between patients with different chemotherapy outcomes(remission vs.non-remission)and different follow-up outcomes(survival vs.death)were analyzed.Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to examine the relationship between the protein levels of ADAM12 and S100A8 in cancer tissues and the prognosis.Results The protein expression levels of ADAM12 and S100A8 in cancer tissues from the triple-negative group were higher than those in the non-triple-negative group(P＜0.05).The protein expression levels of ADAM12 and S100A8 in cancer tissues were correlated with tumor diameter,histological grading,axillary lymph node metastasis,TNM staging,and differentiation degree in the triple-negative group(P＜0.05).The levels of CEA,CA125,ADAM12,and S100A8,as well as the protein expression levels of ADAM12 and S100A8 in cancer tissues in the non-remission group,were higher than those in the remission group(P＜0.05).Similarly,these markers were also significantly elevated in the death group compared to those in the survival group(P＜0.05).After 3 years of follow-up,the overall survival(OS)of patients with low ADAM12 expression was 36.0(8.0,36.0)months,while that of patients with high ADAM12 expression was 32.5(4.0,36.0)months,showing a statistically significant difference(log rank x2=12.913,P＜0.001).The OS of patients with low S100A8 expression was 36.0(7.0,36.0)months,while that of the high-expression group was 31.0(4.9,36.0)months,also showing a statistically significant difference(log rank x2=24.151,P＜0.001).Conclusion ADAM12 and S100A8 protein expression levels in triple-negative breast cancer tissues are higher than those in non-triple-negative breast cancer tissues.Serum tumor markers and ADAM12 and S100A8 protein expression levels(in both serum and tumor tissues)affect the chemotherapy outcomes and prognosis of triple-negative breast cancer patients,among which the expression levels of ADAM12 and S100A8 proteins in tumor tissues can serve as predictors of patient prognosis.

Objective:To develop a scientific and practical questionnaire for general practice residents, and to conduct multidimensional and comprehensive evaluation of the quality of general practice teaching clinics.Methods:A preliminary draft of the questionnaire items was formulated based on a literature review and in-depth interviews. The Delphi method was employed to conduct two rounds of consultation with 14 experts. Following revisions, a convenience sampling method was used to invite general practice residents from three standardized residency training bases to test the reliability and validity of the questionnaire.Results:The questionnaire consisted of 23 items, covering the three dimensions of preparation, implementation process, and comprehensive evaluation of the teaching clinics. The response rates for the two rounds of the expert consultation were both 100.00%, with expert authority coefficients of 0.89 and 0.90, respectively. The overall Cronbach's α coefficient of the questionnaire was 0.93, and the correlation coefficients between each item score and the total score were all >0.30. Structural validity analysis revealed that three common factors were extracted from the questionnaire, with a cumulative variance contribution rate of 77.89%. Conclusions:The General Practice Teaching Clinic Quality Evaluation Questionnaire for Residents developed in this study demonstrates high reliability and validity. The questionnaire provides a scientific basis for the standardized assessment of teaching quality in general practice clinics. By incorporating resident feedback on the teaching process, the questionnaire promotes the development of a teaching clinic quality improvement mechanism focused on residents and plays a significant role in enhancing the teaching capabilities of supervising physicians in clinics.

Hunan university of Chinese medicine, as a first class of colleges and universities of Chinese medicine, needs to cultivate students to become high quality talents with innovative ability. It shall give full play of the medical experimental teaching centre and the virtual simulation experiment teaching platform advantage, and utilize the visualized virtual experiment, its network and interaction, to encourage teachers and students to participate in virtual experiment of "teaching and learning", to inspire students' enthusiasm to participate in the experiment, to liberate the students' experimental thinking, and to reflect the value of digital virtual experiment courses.

Objective To evaluate the application value of time-intensity curve analysis of contrastenhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) in differential diagnosis of malignant and benign breast masses.Methods From January 2015 to September 2015,30 patients with one lesion confirmed by surgical pathology were examined by CEUS.Then time-intensity curve analysis was performed.Results 16 lesions were found in the benign group and 14 lesions were in the malignant group.Five parameters of benign and malignant group were statistically analyzed,including Perfusion slope rate (C),intensity of peak (A),Subsidence slope rate (K),time of peak value (T) and area under the curve (Area).The perfusion slope rate (C) of benign and malignant group is [(0.24 ± 0.41) vs (0.67 ± 0.39)].There was no statistical difference between the two groups in intensity of peak (A),Subsidence slope rate (K),time of peak value (T) and area under the curve (Area),except perfusion slope rate (P＜0.05).Conclusion Time-intensity curve analysis of CEUS has certain effect on differential diagnosis of malignant and benign breast masses.
