Allergen immunotherapy（AIT）can alter the natural course of allergic diseases through immunomodulatory mechanisms and maintain the efficacy after completion. The induction of immune tolerance by AIT is considered to be effective treatment and the mechanism involves the participation of a variety of immune cells，including effector T cells，B cells，dendritic cells，innate lymphoid cells，mast cells and basophils. Studies have found that a variety of immune cells in peripheral blood changed during AIT treatment and the changes of some immune cells were related to the efficacy of AIT，which may provide some theoretical reference for practical clinical activities and may become potential biomarkers for predicting and evaluating the efficacy of AIT. This article reviews the changes of peripheral blood immune cells in the treatment of AIT.

Insufficient future liver remnant volume remains a critical limitation for single-stage resection in patients with hepatic malignancies. The techniques for promoting future liver remnant hypertrophy to realize two-stage hepatectomy include portal vein embolization， associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy， and portal vein ligation. In recent years， the application of auxiliary liver transplantation has further facilitated two-stage total hepatectomy. This article systematically reviews the clinical applications of these techniques and analyzes their advantages and limitations， so as to provide a reference for optimizing clinical decision-making.

Objective:This study aims to develop a laboratory-based predictive model for early neurological deterioration (END) in patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI) using baseline data collected at hospital admission.Methods:This study was a retrospective cohort study. Clinical and baseline laboratory test data from 502 patients with ACI admitted to the Department of Neurology at our hospital between January 1, 2022 and May 31, 2025. Of these patients, 313 were male and 189 were female, with a median age of 67 years (interquartile range: 58-73). Patients were classified into an END group and a non-END group according to the occurrence of END within 7 days of admission. Subsequently, using the caret package in R (version 4.4.2), the dataset was randomly divided into a training set ( n=351) and a validation set ( n=151) at a 7∶3 ratio, with END status as the stratification variable and a fixed random seed to ensure reproducibility. Following baseline characteristic comparisons between groups, these datasets were used for model development and validation, respectively. The differences in clinical indicators between the two patients groups were assessed using the chi-square test and the Wilcoxon rank sum test. In the training group, Lasso regression was utilized to identify variables significantly associated with END. Seven machine learning algorithms-decision tree (DT), random forest (RF), light gradient boosting machine (LGBM), extreme gradient boosting (XGB), K-nearest neighbors (KNN), support vector machine (SVM), and logistic regression (LR)-were employed to develop predictive models. The optimal hyperparameters were determined via grid search integrated with 5-fold cross-validation. The final algorithm was selected based on comprehensive model performance evaluation. Additionally, clinical data of 79 patients with ACI, collected between June 1 to August 31, 2025, were compiled as an independent test set for external validation. The cohort comprised 49 males and 30 females, with a median age of 68 years (interquartile range: 57-72). The SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) method was employed to access feature importance and model interpretability. SHAP dependence plots and interaction plots were utilized to emplore the nonlinear relationships and interaction effects among the featurevariables. Results:Among the 502 patients, 166 experienced END during 7 days of hospitalization. Lasso regression identified nine significant predictors: history of hyperlipidemia, admission NIHSS score, lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), hemoglobin, D-dimer, albumin, neuron-specific enolase (NSE), homocysteine (HCY), and vitamin B12. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) for the seven machine learning models ranged from 0.709 to 0.946. The XGB model achieved the highest predictive performance, with an AUC of 0.946 (95% CI 0.924-0.960) in the training cohort and 0.867 (95% CI 0.902-0.933) in the validation cohort. SHAP analysis revealed that the top five variables contributing to END prediction were admission NIHSS score, HCY, D-dimer, history of hyperlipidemia, and vitamin B12. Conclusion:This study successfully developed a laboratory-based prediction model for END using the XGB machine learning algorithm, which demonstrated strong predictive performance.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze four patients with a 16q22 fragile site with miscarriage or infertility by using cytogenetic methods. METHODS: Four patients presented at Northwest Women's and Children's Hospital between January 2022 and December 2024 were selected as the study subjects. Peripheral blood samples were collected from the patients and subjected to G-banded chromosomal karyotyping, among whom two were also subjected to copy number variation (CNV) sequencing. This study has been approved by the Ethics Committee of the Hospital (Ethics No. 2020-022). RESULTS: The chromosomal karyotypes of the patients were mos 46,XX,fra(16)(q22)[26]/47,XX,del(16)(q22),+chrb(16)(q22)[4]/46,XX,del(16)(q22)[3]/46,XX[91], mos 46,XY,fra(16)(q22)[21]/46,XY,del(16)(q22)[3]/46,XY[76], mos 46,XX,fra(16)(q22)[21]/ 46,XX,del(16)(q22)[4]/46,XX[75] and mos 46,XX,fra(16)(q22)[16]/46,XX,del(16)(q22)[7]/47,XX,del(16)(q22),+chrb(16)(q22)[6]/47,XX,fra(16)(q22),+chrb(16)(q22)[3]/46,XX[68], respectively. CNV sequencing of patients 2 and 4 revealed no deletion or duplication on chromosome 16. CONCLUSION Identification of the 16q22 fragile site has facilitated genetic counseling for these patients.

Mental state is an important part of the normal life activities of the human body, and it is also the most external expression and the most easily obtained information of the physical condition. The normal activities of the mind depend on the normal operation of the viscera, qi, and blood, and are a unified whole that prospers together and suffers together. The theory of the five-spirit-viscera in the Yellow Emperor’s Inner Classic revealed that the normal mental activities of the human body were dominated by the five internal organs, that is, the five internal organs were the body and the five spirits were the function. And it highlighted the viewpoint that the five internal organs store the spirits and are actually one. The heart governs the spirit and belongs to the four internal organs. On this basis, Synopsis of Golden Chamber used the internal organs to diagnose and treat mental diseases, integrating the theory of the five spirits into it, forming a unique method of diagnosis and treatment with the heart as the leading factor and regulating the qi and blood of the four internal organs. It identified the pathogenesis of diseases such as pathogenic crying, lily disease, and hysteria from five levels: heart deficiency and weak qi, heart-lung disharmony, heart-liver disharmony, the heart of the loss of the spleen nourishment, and disharmony between heart and kidney. The treatment was mainly to replenish the deficiency of the viscera and eliminate the pathogens, reflecting the characteristics of regulating the mind and calming the four internal organs. This unique view on diagnosis and treatment has profoundly influenced the diagnosis and treatment theories of mental illnesses by later doctors, and is of great significance to the current clinical treatment of such illnesses.
