Objective:To preliminarily explore the relationship between intraventricular pressure gradients (IVPG) measured by ultrasound hemodynamic analysis and left ventricular cardiotoxicity after anthracycline chemotherapy.Methods:This was a retrospective cohort study. Patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who completed 6 cycles of R-CHOP chemotherapy at Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center from 2014 to 2015 were included. Echocardiography was performed at baseline (T0), after 2 cycles of chemotherapy (T1), after 4 cycles of chemotherapy (T2), and after all chemotherapy cycles (T3). Left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LVGLS), left ventricular global circumferential strain (LVGCS), and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were analyzed using speckle-tracking imaging technology, and IVPG was measured using hemodynamic analysis technology, including IVPG of long-axis (IVPG-LA) and IVPG of short-axis. The change rate of each index from T0 to T2 was marked as Δ. Left ventricular cardiotoxicity was defined as a decrease in LVEF of ≥10% from the baseline level or LVEF ≤50%. Univariate logistic regression analysis was used to explore the related factors of left ventricular myocardial toxicity, and the receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn to analyze their evaluation efficiency for left ventricular myocardial toxicity.Results:A total of 55 patients were included, including 28 males (51%), aged (46.5±11.7) years. Twelve patients (22%) developed left ventricular cardiotoxicity. Compared with T0, IVPG-LA decreased at T1 ((10.73±2.51)% vs. (11.52±3.62)%, P=0.037); while LVGLS, LVGCS, and LVEF only decreased at T3 (all P<0.05). Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that ΔIVPG-LA and ΔLVGLS were related factors for left ventricular myocardial toxicity in patients with DLBCL receiving chemotherapy (all P<0.05). The receiver operating characteristic curve showed that the area under the curve of ΔLVGLS was 0.702, with an optimal cut-off value of 13.15% (sensitivity 66.7%, specificity 62.8%); the area under the curve of ΔIVPG-LA was 0.812, with an optimal cut-off value of 20.74% (sensitivity 75.0%, specificity 90.7%). Conclusions:Hemodynamic analysis technology shows promise clinical application value in evaluating subclinical changes in left ventricular function in tumor patients after anthracycline chemotherapy; the change rate of IVPG-LA could be used as an early indicator of left ventricular toxicity after anthracycline chemotherapy.

Objective:To reveal the differences in the transcriptome maps of brain tissues in mice subjected to Flash irradiation and conventional dose rate irradiation with electron beams and to explain the biological effect and mechanisms of Flash irradiation from multiple perspectives.Methods:Following the principle of grouping based on approximate body weights, 36 female C57BL/6J mice were divided into three groups, i. e., the control, conventional dose rate irradiation (CONV), and Flash irradiation (Flash) groups, with 12 mice in each group. Both the CONV and Flash groups received a single 15 Gy whole-brain irradiation with 9 MeV electron beams. At 3 d post-irradiation, the whole-brain tissue specimens were collected for hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining to observe pathological changes. At 1, 3, and 10 weeks post-irradiation, the motion function, cognitive ability, depression level, and spatial memory capacity of the mice were assessed using ethology. At 1 and 10 weeks after behavioral experiments, brain tissue samples were collected and snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen for reference-based transcriptome sequencing. Accordingly, the differences in the transcriptome maps of radiation-induced brain injury between CONV and Flash groups were analyzed.Results:The HE staining-based pathological result revealed that compared to the CONV group, the Flash group exhibited reduced glial cell hyperplasia and inflammatory cell infiltration in brain tissues. Ethological research result at 1 week post-irradiation showed that the CONV group manifested a significantly decreased total traveled distance compared to the control and Flash groups ( t = 5.51, 2.38, P < 0.05) and a significantly increased immobility time compared to the control group ( t = 3.60, P < 0.05). Ethological research result at 3 weeks post-irradiation indicated that compared to the CONV group, the Flash group displayed significantly alleviated cognitive impairment ( t = 3.35, P < 0.05) and reduced depression levels ( t = 2.39, P < 0.05). Ethological research result at 10 weeks post-irradiation demonstrated that the CONV group showed the worst cognitive performance, significantly differing from the control group ( t = 4.53, P < 0.05). Transcriptome sequencing result revealed that besides immune-related pathways, the Flash group also exhibited multiple upregulated metabolic pathways and fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-related pathways compared to the CONV group. Conclusions:Compared to conventional dose rate irradiation, Flash irradiation can effectively alleviate radiation-induced brain injury in mice. This effect is associated with various metabolic pathways (including amino acid metabolism) and FGF-related pathways besides immune pathways.

Objective:To investigate the effectiveness and feasibility of whole exome sequencing (WES), as a molecular diagnosis technique, for adult patients with genetic diseases.Methods:The present retrospective analysis included 445 adult patients (ages 18-80 years) with suspected genetic diseases who underwent whole exome sequencing (WES) from August 2021 to December 2022. The pathogenicity classification of each variant was assessed in accordance with the recommendations developed by the American Society of Medical Genetics and Genomics.Results:The overall positive rate of WES among adult patients with suspected genetic diseases was 28.08% (125/445). The highest positive rate was observed in the age group of 41-50 years (34.33%, 23/67). Among the diagnosed genetic diseases, those affecting the cardiovascular system (63.16%, 84/133), nervous system (18.05%, 24/133), and endocrine system (13.53%, 18/133) ranked as the top three. The most common genetic diseases identified through WES in adult patients were hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (18.80%, 25/133), dilated cardiomyopathy (16.54%, 22/133), Marfan syndrome (15.04%, 20/133), epilepsy (9.02%, 12/133), and familial hypercholesterolemia (4.51%, 6/133). The main causative genes identified included FBN1 (14.29%, 19/133), MYBPC3 (9.02%, 12/133), MYH7 (9.02%, 12/133), LDLR (3.76%, 5/133), TTN (3.76%, 5/133), and TNNI3 (3.01%, 4/133).Conclusion:Applying the WES technique in clinical practice can improve the diagnostic rate of adult genetic diseases, especially in adult patients with suspected genetic conditions involving the cardiovascular system, nervous system, and endocrine system.

Objective To explore the chain mediating effect of interpersonal promotion and calling on work autonomy and work engagement of medical staff.Methods From June to July 2023,a total of 310 medical staff from 5 tertiary public hos-pitals in Hangzhou were selected by convenience sampling.The questionnaire included work autonomy scale,interpersonal promo-tion scale,calling scale and work engagement scale for accurate and effective investigation,and data analysis was conducted using SPSS2 6.0 and AMOS 26.0.Results A total of 310 questionnaires were distributed and 257 were recovered with a recovery rate of 82.90％.There were statistically significant differences in work engagement among medical staff with different ages,marital status,working time,titles and positions(all P＜0.05).Calling partially mediated the effect of work autonomy on work engage-ment(95％CI[0.090,0.291],P＜0.001),and interpersonal promotion and calling played a partially chain mediating role be-tween work autonomy and work engagement(95％CI[0.016,0.103],P＜0.001).Conclusion Interpersonal promotion and calling play a partially chain mediating role between work autonomy and work engagement of medical staff.Work autonomy of medical staff not only has an indirect effect on work engagement through the mediating role of calling,but also enhances calling through interpersonal promotion and ultimately affects work engagement.
