The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI), especially generative AI (GenAI), has already brought, and will continue to bring, revolutionary changes to our daily production and life, as well as create new opportunities and challenges for diagnostic and therapeutic practices in the medical field. Haihe Hospital of Tianjin University collaborates with the National Supercomputer Center in Tianjin, Tianjin University, and other institutions to carry out research in areas such as smart healthcare, smart services, and smart management. We have conducted research and development of a full-process disease diagnosis and treatment assistance system based on GenAI in the field of smart healthcare. The development of this project is of great significance. The first goal is to upgrade and transform the hospital's information center, organically integrate it with existing information systems, and provide the necessary computing power storage support for intelligent services within the hospital. We have implemented the localized deployment of three models: Tianhe "Tianyuan", WiNGPT, and DeepSeek. The second is to create a digital avatar of the chief physician/chief physician's voice and image by integrating multimodal intelligent interaction technology. With generative intelligence as the core, this solution provides patients with a visual medical interaction solution. The third is to achieve deep adaptation between generative intelligence and the entire process of patient medical treatment. In this project, we have developed assistant tools such as intelligent inquiry, intelligent diagnosis and recognition, intelligent treatment plan generation, and intelligent assisted medical record generation to improve the safety, quality, and efficiency of the diagnosis and treatment process. This study introduces the content of a full-process disease diagnosis and treatment assistance system, aiming to provide references and insights for the digital transformation of the healthcare industry.

OBJECTIVE: To observe change in serum growth differentiation factor 11 (GDF11) and killer cell lectin-like receptor B1 (KLRB1), to construct a nomogram model for 28-day death in patients with septic shock, and to explore its predictive value. METHODS: A prospective observational study was conducted. The patients with septic shock admitted to the emergency intensive care unit (ICU) of Cangzhou Central Hospital from September 2023 to March 2025 were selected as the septic shock group, the patients with sepsis admitted to the emergency general ward during the same period were selected as the sepsis group, and healthy individuals undergoing physical examination during the same period were selected as the control group. On the day of hospital admission or physical examination for the research subjects, the levels of serum GDF11 and KLRB1 were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The patients with septic shock were divided into survival and death groups based on their 28-day survival status. The patients' gender, age, past medical history, infection site, severity of illness, mechanical ventilation, blood purification, infection indicators, biochemical indicators, coagulation function indicators, and blood lactic acid (Lac) were collected. The clinical data of the patients with septic shock between the two groups with different prognoses were compared. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to screen the risk factors for 28-day death in patients with septic shock, and bivariate Pearson correlation analysis was conducted. A nomogram model was constructed based on the risk factors for 28-day death in patients with septic shock. The discrimination and calibration of the nomogram model were evaluated using the receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve), Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test, and calibration curve. The clinical utility of the model was evaluated using clinical decision curve analysis (DCA). RESULTS: A total of 168 patients in the emergency ICU were enrolled in the septic shock group, 40 patients in the emergency general ward were enrolled in the sepsis group, and 40 healthy individuals were enrolled in the control group. Compared with the healthy control group, the serum GDF11 levels in the sepsis and septic shock groups were significantly increased (μg/L: 13.09±3.51, 19.28±5.36 vs. 4.17±0.92, both P < 0.05), and the serum KLRB1 levels were significantly decreased (ng/L: 57.36±11.28, 45.52±9.07 vs. 84.19±17.16, both P < 0.05), with more significant changes in the septic shock group (both P < 0.05). Among the 168 patients with septic shock, 96 survived and 72 died within 28 days. Compared with the survival group, the serum GDF11 level in the death group was significantly increased (μg/L: 24.24±4.81 vs. 15.56±4.62, P < 0.05), and the serum KLRB1 level was significantly decreased (ng/L: 28.53±8.69 vs. 58.26±9.45, P < 0.05). There were also statistically significant differences in sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II (APACHEII) score, procalcitonin (PCT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), D-dimer, and Lac between the two groups. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that SOFA score [odds ratio (OR) = 1.96, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) was 1.38-3.65), Lac (OR = 1.38, 95%CI was 1.09-2.01), GDF11 (OR = 1.54, 95%CI was 1.21-2.33) and KLRB1 (OR = 0.64, 95%CI was 0.41-0.78) were independent risk factors for 28-day death in patients with septic shock (all P < 0.05). Bivariate Pearson correlation analysis showed that SOFA score was significantly positively correlated with Lac and GDF11 (r value was 0.37 and 0.58, respectively, both P < 0.05), and significantly negatively correlated with KLRB1 (r = -0.72, P < 0.05). A nomogram model was constructed based on the risk factors for 28-day death in patients with septic shock. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the nomogram model for predicting 28-day death in patients with septic shock was 0.963 (95%CI was 0.929-0.990), indicating that the model had good discrimination and predictive ability. The Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test (χ ² = 9.578, P = 0.295) and calibration curve indicated that the predicted values of the model were in good agreement with the actual values. DCA indicated that the model provided a high net benefit for clinical decision-making. CONCLUSIONS The serum GDF11 level was significantly increased and the KLRB1 level was significantly decreased in patients with septic shock. The nomogram model based on GDF11 and KLRB1 could more accurately evaluate the 28-day death of patients with septic shock.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics of dedifferentiated endometrial carcinoma/undifferentiated endometrial carcinoma (DDEC/UDEC) with loss of expression of SMARCA4.Methods:A total of 10 cases with loss of expression of SMARCA4 were diagnosed at Fujian Cancer Hospital between January 2019 and December 2023. A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical characteristics, morphology, immunophenotype, molecular classification, and prognosis.Results:(1) Clinical characteristics: among 10 cases of DDEC/UDEC with loss of expression of SMARCA4, the patients′ age ranged from 48 to 65 years, with a median age of 56 years.Five cases were classified as International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stages Ⅰ-Ⅱ, while the remaining five were categorized as stages Ⅲ-Ⅳ. (2) Pathological features: tumor cells exhibited poor cell adhesion, with common intravascular tumor emboli (8/10), occasional vacuolated nuclei (6/10), rhabdoid cells (4/10), and starry sky phenomenon formed by tissue cell phagocytosis apoptosis bodies or fragments (4/10). Six cases (6/10) showed loss of mismatch repair (MMR) protein expression, two cases (2/10) exhibited p53 mutant expression, and five cases (5/10) tested positive for programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1). (3) Molecular subtyping: molecular subtyping revealed POLEmut in 1 case (1/10), mismatch repair deficient (MMR-d) in 5 cases (5/10), p53 abn in 1 case (1/10), and no specific molecular profile (NSMP) in 3 cases (3/10). (4) Prognosis: the follow-up period ranged from 7 to 42 months, with a median of 20 months. Five patients succumbed to the tumor, whereas the remaining five exhibited no recurrence during subsequent postoperative evaluations. The 2-year progression-free survival rates and overall survival rates were 58.3% and 52.5%, respectively.Conclusions:Loss of expression of SMARCA4 occurs in approximately 1/5 of DDEC/UDEC, which presents with an aggressive clinical course and a poor prognosis. About half of them show MMR protein loss expression and PD-L1 positive expression, suggesting that there might be benefit from treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors.

Objective:To analyze the distribution of TCM syndrome elements and syndromes in patients with hypertension with insomnia (HWI) in the real world.Methods:A cross-sectional study and retrospectively enrolled. The positive symptoms and TCM syndrome type entries of 359 patients with HWI who were collected from Henan Integrated Medicine Hospital,Henan Provincial People's Hospital,the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Chinese Medicine from December 2020 to August 2022 were retrospectively studied. Based on factor analysis dimension reduction and systematic cluster analysis, the TCM syndrome elements and potential syndrome types of patients were summarized. The Latern 5.0 software was used to establish a latent structure model and comprehensive clustering based on the mountain climbing method (LTM-EAST) algorithm, and analyze and judge the common syndrome types, providing a basis for proposing the clinical common syndrome types of this disease.Results:Factor analysis extracted 14 common factors, and the cumulative contribution rate was 63.254%. Among the 36 symptom variables with frequency ≥ 70, more than half of the patients with hypertension and insomnia were upset, irritable, less sleepy, dreamy, dizzy, palpitations, stuffy chest, dry mouth, easy to wake up, and tired. The tongue color was mainly light red tongue and red tongue. The tongue is mainly thin and greasy. The first three pulse conditions are string pulse, number pulse and slippery pulse. The disease location and syndrome elements of hypertension with insomnia were mainly liver (52.09%), heart (33.43%), spleen (26.46%) and kidney (23.68%); The disease syndrome elements are mainly phlegm dampness (34.54%), yin deficiency (29.25%), heat (fire) (25.35%), and qi stagnation (25.07%). Ten syndrome types are obtained by frequency statistics, nine syndrome types are obtained by factor clustering, and seven syndrome types are inferred by implicit structure clustering.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of platelet-monocyte aggregates (PMA) in the clinical diagnosis of sepsis.Methods:From January 2022 to December 2022, patients in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University were recruited in this study, among which 41 were with sepsis (sepsis group), 41 patients had infection but were not diagnosed as sepsis (infection group), and 25 healthy individuals (healthy control group) were simultaneously chosen. Patients with sepsis were divided into the shock group (14 cases) and the non-shock group (27 cases). PMA of all subjects were measured by Beckman Coulter Navios Flow Cytometry and detection of procalcitonin(PCT), C-reactive protein (CRP) and platelet (PLT).The differences of the two indexes between the different groups were compared by nonparametric test. Spearman′s correlation test was used to analyze the correlation among PMA, PCT, CRP and PLT. The diagnostic value of PMA in sepsis was evaluated by drawing the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was used to compare the survival time of patient with different PMA. Results:The PMA in the sepsis group, infection group and healthy control group were 52.66% (27.10%, 81.09%), 37.22% (26.52%, 54.56%) and 15.94% (15.10%, 17.02%), respectively. For the three groups, PCT levels were 3.10 (0.23, 15.35)μg/L, 0.15 (0.08, 0.79)μg/L and 0.02 (0.02, 0.02)μg/L, CRP levels were 106.6 (35.87, 175.60)mg/L, 76.45 (27.20, 110.10)mg/L and 1.26 (0.94, 2.42) mg/L, and the PLT counts were 116.00 (90.25, 204.30)×10 9/L, 192.00 (147.30, 333.00)×10 9/L and 199.50 (178.00, 252.80)×10 9/L. The values for PMA, PCT and CRP levels were significantly higher in the septic group compared to the healthy controls (the U values were 0.00, 5.00 and 1.00, P<0.001). But the PLT for the septic group was lower than that from the healthy control ( U=47.00, P<0.05). The differences in PCT and PLT were statistically (the U values were 84.50 and 176.50, P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between the PMA and CRP(the U values were 255.00 and 210.00, P>0.05) for the two groups. PMA was positively correlated with PCT( rs=0.562, P<0.001) and CRP( rs=0.447, P<0.001) in patients. The levels of PMA in shock and non-shock groups were 83.54% (76.51%, 86.82%) and 43.75% (21.59%, 62.83%) respectively ( U=12.00, P<0.05). The AUC of PMA in diagnostic of sepsis was 0.750(95% CI 0.657-0.843), the best cut-off value was 37.99%. Survival curve analysis showed that the survival time was significantly lower in the PMA≥37.99% group ( χ 2=4.805, P<0.05). Conclusion:PMA holds significant clinical reference for sepsis diagnosis and has the potential to serve as a biomarker in sepsis diagnostic procedures.

To investigate the expression of polyadenosine diphospho-ribose polymerase 1 (PARP-1) and p16/ retinoblastoma (Rb) protein in hydroquinone (HQ)-induced TK6 cells and their regulatory mechanisms. Methods According to the 2×2 factorial design model, TK6 cells were divided into PBS-TK6 group and HQ-TK6 group based on HQ exposure, and then sub-divided into non-DOX intervention subgroup and DOX intervention subgroup based on DOX intervention, a total of four groups. The PBS-TK6 group was treated with phosphate buffer saline, and the HQ-TK6 group was treated with HQ at a final concentration of 20.0 μmol/L. The non-DOX intervention subgroup was added with 0.05% dimethyl sulfoxide; and the DOX intervention subgroup was added with PARP-1 agonist DOX at a final concentration of 0.5 μmol/L. The distribution of cell cycle was detected by flow cytometry. The protein expression of p16/Rb, cyclin D1 (cyclinD1), multifunctional protein E2 transcription factor 1 (E2F1), Rb, and p-Rb were detected by Western blot, and the level of p16 ribosylation was detected by immunofluorescence and immunoprecipitation. Results Compared with the PBS-TK6 group, the cell cycle distribution percentage in G0/G1 phase and the relative expression levels of p16 proteins were decreased in the cells of the HQ-TK6 group (all P<0.05). The cell cycle distribution percentage in S phase and the relative expression levels of cyclinD1 and p-Rb proteins were up-regulated (all P<0.05). Compared with the non-DOX intervention group, the cell cycle distribution percentage in G0/G1 and G2/M phases and the relative expression level of p16 protein increased in the DOX intervention group (all P<0.05). The percentage of cells in S phase and the relative expression levels of cyclinD1 and p-Rb proteins were down-regulated (all P< 0.05). The results of interaction effect analysis showed that compared with the non-DOX PBS-TK6 cells, the relative expression levels of Rb and E2F1 protein in the DOX PBS-TK6 cells intervention group were down-regulated (all P<0.05). The relative expression level of Rb protein in non-DOX HQ-TK6 cell group was down-regulated (P<0.05), and the relative expression of E2F1 protein was up-regulated (P<0.05). Compared with DOX PBS-TK6 cell group, the relative expression level of Rb protein in DOX HQ-TK6 cell group was down-regulated and that of E2F1 protein was up-regulated (all P<0.05). Compared with the non-DOX HQ-TK6 cell group, the relative expression level of Rb protein in the DOX HQ-TK6 cell group was up-regulated and that of E2F1 protein was down-regulated (all P<0.05). Conclusion PARP-1 participates in cell cycle regulation by regulating the p16/Rb signaling pathway in TK6 cells.

Its clinicopathological features were analyzed.Results:All patients were adult female with a median age of 49 years, and 6 of them were unilateral MTC. The tumor diameter ranged from 0.4 to 7.0 cm. The thyroid tissue surrounding the tumor showed HT. The follow-up time was 16 to 152 months, with a median time of 61 months, 5 patients (tumor diameter <1 cm) were biochemically cured, 1 patient (tumor diameter >1 cm) was anatomically cured. The another patient died due to tumor progression 30 months after surgery, the tumor cells in which were highly atypia and more mitoses (5~8/10HPF) necrosis and vascular invasion were also observed.Conclusion:MTC with HT are mostly sporadic cases, and most of them have a fair prognosis.

ObjectiveTo analyze the effect of different fixation methods on the chemical quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of Rehmannia glutinosa leaves， so as to lay a foundation for the selection of processing technology and quality evaluation of this medicinal materials. MethodR. glutinosa leaves was dried at 55 ℃ after treating by three fixation methods （55 ℃， boiling water， 105 ℃）， and then the fingerprints of R. glutinosa leaves were collected by high performance liquid chromatography （HPLC） and near infrared spectroscopy （NIRS）， and their antioxidant activities were analyzed by the 2，2-biphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl （DPPH） method. Finally， similarity analysis， principal component analysis （PCA）， orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis （OPLS-DA） and Pearson correlation analysis were used to comprehensively evaluate the quality of R. glutinosa leaves with different fixation methods. ResultThe results of HPLC and NIRS fingerprint analysis indicated that there were differences in the quality characteristics of R. glutinosa leaves by different fixation treatments. The comprehensive score of chemical quality of R. glutinosa leaves by fixation at 55 ℃ was the highest， its average comprehensive score was 2.096， followed by fixation at 105 ℃， and the lowest was fixation with boiling water. The antioxidant activity of sample with fixation at 55 ℃ was the highest， followed by fixation with boiling water. The results of OPLS-DA showed that verbascoside， isoacteoside and catalpol were the main components causing the difference in chemical quality of the leaves from the three treatments， and the three components were positively correlated with the antioxidant activity of R. glutinosa leaves. Among them， the correlation between verbascoside and antioxidant activity was extremely significant， and the isoacteoside was significant. ConclusionThe chemical quality and antioxidant activity of R. glutinosa leaves are affected by the method of fixation， and the fixation at low temperature is the best primary processing method of R. glutinosa leaves.

Objective:To explore the clinical and imaging features and prognoses of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody associated disorders (MOGAD).Methods:Thirty-nine MOGAD patients, admitted to our hospital from January 2018 to April 2021, were chosen in our study. The clinical and imaging data and follow-up results of these patients at acute attack period (first-onset or relapse) were collected and their features were analyzed.Results:In these 39 patients with MOGAD, 20 patients (51.3%) had non-reversing course, and 19 patients (48.7%) had relapsing course. The clinical and imaging data of 55 episodes of these 39 patients were collected. In these 55 episodes, optic neuritis was noted in 27 episodes (49.1%), encephalitis was noted in 10 episodes (18.2%), brainstem encephalitis was noted in 8 episodes (14.5%), meningoencephalitis in 2 episodes (14.5%), myelitis in 3 episodes (5.5%), encephalomyelitis in 1 episode (1.8%), optic neuromyelitis in 1 episode(1.8%), optic neuritis+meningoencephalitis in 2 episodes (3.6%), and optic neuritis+encephalitis in 1 episode (1.8%). The positive rate of antinuclear antibody (ANA) was 11.1% (4/36); the cerebrospinal fluid results of 28 samples were collected from 22 patients, and CSF pleocytosis occurred in 67.9% of the samples with value of 54.89±67.70×10 6/L. Twenty-seven brain MRIs of 19 patients at the acute episode were collected; one completely normal MRI was recorded; among the remaining 26 MRIs, 6 were with one single lesion, 5 were with 2 lesions, and 15 were with 3 or more lesions; in terms of distribution, lesions involving brainstem and its adjacent structures were found in 9 MRIs, lesions involving diencephalon and deep gray matter were found in 7 MRIs, supratentorial white matter lesions were found in 13 MRIs, and cortical lesions were found in 13 MRIs. Meningeal enhancement were found in 4 contrast-enhanced brain MRIs (4/20). Long or short segmental myelitis in the spinal MRIs was noted in spinal lesions, involving cervical spinal cord, thoracic spinal cord and conus, and the "H" sign could be seen in the cross section. All patients received steroids therapy at the acute phase and the doses of steroids were tapered down gradually. Thirty-eight patients (97.4%) had good prognosis after 3 months of treatment. Conclusions:MOGAD is a disease entity widely involving the white matter, gray matter and meninges of the central nervous system with various clinical manifestations such as optic neuritis, encephalitis, brainstem encephalitis, meningoencephalitis and myelitis or a combination of the above. Immunotherapy is effective in most patients, but the recurrence rate is high, and some patients require long-term immunotherapy.
