Objective To investigate the value of multiparametric CT features for predicting the risk classification of gastric stro-mal tumor(GST).Methods The clinical data from 139 patients with GST were retrospectively collected.According to the patho-logical risk results,the patients were divided into two groups:a low-risk GST group(including very low-and low-risk)with 75 patients and a high-risk GST group(including medium and high-risk)with 64 patients.The CT features between low-risk GST group and high-risk GST group were compared using chi-squared test or t-test.The risk factors of high-risk GST were identified by univariate analysis.The prediction models were built by multivariate logistic regression.The performance of models were evaluated by receiver oper-ating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results There were significant differences in the maximum tumor diameter,minimum tumor diameter,arterial phase enhancement degree,venous phase enhancement rate,arterial phase enhancement degree rate,venous phase enhance-ment degree rate,cystic,and necrosis between low-risk GST group and high-risk GST group,which were associated with the risk classification of GST.The area under the curve(AUC)of the quantitative features-based model that combined maximum tumor diam-eter,minimum tumor diameter,arterial phase enhancement degree,venous phase enhancement rate,arterial phase enhancement degree rate and venous phase enhancement degree rate,showed a significantly higher performance than the qualitative features-based model that incorporated cystic and necrosis(0.981 vs 0.850,P<0.001).Conclusion Maximum tumor diameter,minimum tumor diameter,arterial phase enhancement degree,venous phase enhancement rate,arterial phase enhancement degree rate,venous phase enhance-ment degree rate,as well as cystic and necrosis,are associated with the risk classification of GST and can predict the high-risk GST.

Activation of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2(Nrf2)by Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1(Keap1)alkylation plays a central role in anti-inflammatory therapy.However,activators of Nrf2 through alkylation of Keap1-Kelch domain have not been identified.Deoxynyboquinone(DNQ)is a natural small molecule discovered from marine actinomycetes.The current study was designed to investigate the anti-inflammatory effects and molecular mechanisms of DNQ via alkylation of Keap1.DNQ exhibited signif-icant anti-inflammatory properties both in vitro and in vivo.The pharmacophore responsible for the anti-inflammatory properties of DNQ was determined to be the α,β-unsaturated amides moieties by a chemical reaction between DNQ and N-acetylcysteine.DNQ exerted anti-inflammatory effects through activation of Nrf2/ARE pathway.Keap1 was demonstrated to be the direct target of DNQ and bound with DNQ through conjugate addition reaction involving alkylation.The specific alkylation site of DNQ on Keap1 for Nrf2 activation was elucidated with a synthesized probe in conjunction with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.DNQ triggered the ubiquitination and subsequent degra-dation of Keap1 by alkylation of the cysteine residue 489(Cys489)on Keap1-Kelch domain,ultimately enabling the activation of Nrf2.Our findings revealed that DNQ exhibited potent anti-inflammatory capacity through α,β-unsaturated amides moieties active group which specifically activated Nrf2 signal pathway via alkylation/ubiquitination of Keap1-Kelch domain,suggesting the potential values of targeting Cys489 on Keap1-Kelch domain by DNQ-like small molecules in inflammatory therapies.

Objective:This study aims to explore the synergistic effects of DIP and other medical insurance supply-side policies.Method:City A that has piloted DIP reform was set as the treatment group,and City B without reform was set as the control group.A total of 1 120 public medical institution samples from 2019 to 2022 were collected.The total medical expenses during hospitalization and some structural expenses were analyzed using DID method.Result:DIP had a significant inhibitory effect on the medical expenses,and the expenses of checkups and examinations during hospitalization in city A,but had no impact on the drug and the material expenses during hospitalization.Conclusion:DIP played a significant cost control role and effectively controlled the total medical expenses during hospitalization.The synergistic effects of price adjustment of medical services policy and national centralized drug/material procurement policy on cost control were insufficient.DIP synergized with other supply-side policies to promote rational medical cost structure.It is suggested that medical insurance departments should focus on the synergistic effects of medical insurance supply-side policies to jointly improve the efficiency of medical insurance fund utilization.
