Objective To preliminary explore the imaging manifestations of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) and contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients with different levels of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) expression. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on TNBC patients who underwent preoperative DBT or CEM examinations at Xinhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from January 2018 to December 2019 and Shanghai Second People’s Hospital from January 2022 to May 2025. Clinical data, pathological and immunohistochemical results, and imaging data were collected. Results A total of 69 TNBC patients pathologically confirmed as invasive ductal carcinoma were included, among which 34 underwent DBT and 35 underwent CEM. Among these patients, 34 (49.28%) had HER2-low expression and 35 (50.72%) had HER2-zero expression. DBT results showed that the proportion of spiculation signs in HER2-low group (n=14) was significantly higher than that in HER2-zero group (n=20; P=0.009, Padj=0.045). However, there were no significant differences in breast density type, mass shape, or calcification between the two groups. CEM results showed that on low-energy images, the proportion of spiculation signs in the HER2-low group (n=20) was higher than that in the HER2-zero group (n=15; P=0.011, Padj=0.077). Results of CEM showed that on reconstructed images, differences in background parenchymal enhancement and mass enhancement patterns between the two groups were not statistically significant; in both groups, heterogeneous enhancement was the most common, followed by homogeneous enhancement, with ring enhancement being the least common. Conclusions TNBC with low HER2 expression and TNBC with zero HER2 expression may have potential differences in the presentation of spiculation signs on DBT. However, the correlation between CEM manifestations and TNBC with different HER2 expression levels requires further research.

Objective:
To explore the related factors of college students social network addiction based on problem behavior theory, so as to provide a basis for improving social networking addiction in this population.
Methods:
From May to June 2023, a method combining convenient sampling and cluster random sampling was used to select 1 768 college students from five universities in Shanghai for a questionnaire survey on social networking addiction, self esteem, loneliness, depressive symptoms, social support, interpersonal needs, sense of distress and frustration; at the same time, the physical exercise, smoking and drinking of college students were investigated. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was applied to explore the association between the three systems of the problem behavior theory (personality, behavior, and social environment) and social networking addiction among college students.
Results:
The score on the Social Network Addiction Tendency Scale was (21.08±6.29) among college students, and the detection rate of social networking addiction was 66.29%. After adjusting for gender, family economic status, parental divorce status, and whether being an only child, multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that in the personality system, higher loneliness ( OR =1.66) and higher depressive symptoms ( OR =2.18) were associated with increased risk of social networking addiction among college students; in the behavior system, alcohol consumption ( OR =1.42) was associated with higher risk of soical networking addiction compared to non drinkers; and in the social environment system, low social support ( OR =1.43) was associated with increased risk of social networking addiction (all P <0.05).
Conclusions
The rate of social networking addiction among college students is relatively high, and the systems of personality, behavior, and social environment are all related to social network addiction. Providing social support, cultivating healthy lifestyle habits, and increasing interpersonal interactions may help reduce excessive dependence on social networking among college students.

Objective To propose a lead attention network-based ST-T change recognition algorithm to detect ECG ST-T changes accurately.Methods Firstly,heartbeat signals were extracted through R-wave localization,and a 12-lead heartbeat matrix was generated by correlation-based screening and merging to realize data augmentation.Secondly,a lead attention module was constructed by combining depthwise convolution(DWConv)with the channel attention squeeze-and-excitation block(SE-block)structure to perceive the differences in ST-T status among electrocardiogram leads.Thirdly,the mapping output by two independent attention modules was fused and splicing with the original signal residual was carried out,so that attention information extraction and original information transfer were enhanced effectively.Finally,SE-ResNet was used as the backbone network to extract signal features to complete the classification and identification of ST-T changes.To validate the recognition performance of the proposed algorithm for ST-T changes in ECG,the 12-lead ECG data of 97 472 patients containing different ECG rhythms were collected for ablation and comparison experiments at the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University.Results The proposed algorithm achieved an AUC of 0.965 with a sensitivity of 90.51%,specificity of 90.23%,positive predictive value of 89.24%and overall accuracy of 90.36%on an independent test set.Comparative analysis demonstrated superior performance to four benchmark architectures,including VGG16,ResNet18,MobileNetV3-Small and ShuffleNet,in terms of both classification accuracy and computational efficiency.Conclusion The algorithm designed can accurately detect ST-T changes and can be used for wearable ECG automatic analysis to assist in the early warning of cardiovascular diseases in both acute and chronic patients and highland residents.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(7):1-11]

Objective:To investigate the optimal timing of oral propranolol treatment for proliferative infantile hemangiomas (IH) .Methods:A bidirectional cohort study was conducted. Infants with proliferative IH receiving oral propranolol treatment were collected from the Department of Pediatric Surgery, West China Hospital, Sichuan University between June 2015 and May 2019, and their general information and IH-related clinical data were analyzed. The primary outcome was the satisfactory regression rate of IH during 6-12 months of continuous oral propranolol treatment; secondary outcomes included the time to achieve satisfactory regression, incidence of adverse reactions, incidence of IH ulceration, and IH recurrence rate. Multivariate logistic regression was performed to identify factors influencing the satisfactory regression of IH after propranolol treatment, and a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was employed to determine the optimal age for initiating propranolol therapy.Results:A total of 122 IH infants were enrolled in the study, including 32 males (26.2%) and 90 females (73.8%), with ages ( M[ Q1, Q3]) of 8.6 [6.3, 12.3] weeks. IH was located on the head and face in 56 cases (45.9%). There were 57 cases (46.7%) of localized IH, 53 (43.4%) of segmental IH, and 86 (70.5%) of mixed-type IH. Ulceration occurred in 17 cases (13.9%). After 6 months of propranolol treatment, 8 patients (6.6%) experienced treatment failure, and 12 (9.8%) experienced relapse within 6 months after discontinuation of propranolol. During 6 months of oral propranolol treatment, 56 infants (45.9%) experienced mild to moderate adverse reactions, with no drug-related deaths observed. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the age at initiation of propranolol treatment was an independent factor influencing satisfactory regression of IH ( OR = 0.879, 95% CI: 0.808 - 0.957). ROC curve analysis revealed that the optimal age for starting propranolol therapy was 9.9 weeks, with a sensitivity of 75.7% and a specificity of 61.5%. Infants aged ≤ 9.9 weeks (73 cases) had a significantly higher satisfactory regression rate (72.6% [53/73]) compared with those aged > 9.9 weeks (49 cases, 34.7% [17/49]; χ2 = 17.23, P < 0.001) ; the time to achieve satisfactory regression of IH was significantly shorter in the infants aged ≤ 9.9 weeks ( M[ Q1, Q3]: 46.0 [38.5, 48.0] weeks) than in those aged > 9.9 weeks (57.0 [40.0, 73.5] weeks; Z = -2.01, P = 0.045) . Conclusion:For IH infants requiring systemic therapy, initiation of oral propranolol before the age of 10 weeks appeared to improve the satisfactory regression rate of IH.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of high-frequency irreversible electroporation (H-FIRE) in treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).Methods:This randomized controlled open-label multicenter clinical trial enrolled patients from nine medical centers in China between August 2020 and July 2022. Inclusion criteria: age 50–80 years, International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) ≥12, maximum urinary flow rate (Q max) >5 ml/min and ≤15 ml/min. Exclusion criteria: prostate malignancy, contraindications to surgery or anesthesia. Patients were randomized 1∶1 into the H-FIRE group (experimental) or the control group (daily oral 0.2 mg tamsulosin hydrochloride sustained-release capsules). Primary outcomes included Q max, IPSS, prostate volume, and International Index of Erectile Function-5 (IIEF-5) scores, measured at baseline, 1 and 3 months post-treatment. Results:A total of 160 cases were included in this study, including 80 cases in the experimental group and 80 cases in the control group, 30 cases in Renji Hospital, 7 cases in Qilu Hospital of Shandong University, 8 cases in Tongji Hospital, 3 cases in Hunan Provincial Hospital, 13 cases in Shanghai Pudong Hospital, 29 cases in Hwa Mei Hospital, 18 cases in Yiyuan County People's Hospital, and 38 cases in Shanghai East Hospital, and 14 cases in Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital. At 3 months of post-treatment, Q max in the experimental group increased by a median of 7.50 (3.55, 14.50) ml/s from the baseline value, whereas in the control group it increased by a median of 1.70 (-1.40, 6.00) ml/s, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P < 0.01, U = 1 083); and at 3 months of post-treatment, IPSS in the experimental group decreased by a median of 12.00 (7.00, 17.00) points in the test group and 6.00 (2.00, 11.00) points in the control group, and the magnitude of improvement in IPSS scores in the test group was significantly higher than that in the control group ( P < 0.01, U = 1 248); at 3 months of post-treatment, the prostate volume decreased by a median of 12.16 (5.69, 18.27) ml in the experimental group and 0 (-3.94, 6.89) ml in the control group, suggesting that H-FIRE significantly reduced prostate gland volume ( P<0.01, U=1 111). The difference in elevated IIEF-5 scores from baseline at 3 months of treatment between the experimental and control groups was not statistically significant[0(-2.00, 1.00) points vs. 0(-2.00, 1.50) points; P=0.54, U=2 338]. There were no serious adverse events in the two groups. Conclusions:H-FIRE could significantly improve both subjective and objective symptoms of BPH with a low risk of severe complications.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of robot-assisted coronary artery bypass(RACAB).Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the clinical outcomes from 252 consecutive patients who underwent RACAB in our center between April 2021 and August 2023. The internal mammary artery(IMA) was harvested using the skeletonized technique with the assistance of the robotic system. Then, graft-to-target vessel anastomoses were performed via a 4-6 cm left fifth intercostal thoracotomy. Coronary angiography or coronary CTA was routinely performed before discharge.Results:149 patients(59.1%) underwent multi-vessel coronary bypass. 140 patients(55.6%) underwent total arterial bypass grafting, with 131 patients(52.0%) undergoing RACAB with in situ bilateral IMA. IMA harvesting failed in 6 patients(1.6%). One patient(0.4%) was assisted by extracorporeal circulation, and 5 patients(2.0%) underwent re-thoracotomy postoperatively. The patency rate of grafts was 96.6%(449/465). The 12-month and 24-month survival rate were 97.8% and 96.5% respectively; The 12-month and 24-month MACCE-free survival rate were 95.2% and 92.6%, respectively.Conclusion:RACAB is safe and feasible. With the assistance of the robotic system, in situ bilateral IMA can be obtained and bypassed to all target vessels territory. Extended follow-up is warranted.
