Objective To explore the efficiency improvement in segmenting neural network with the application of Transformer + U-Net artificial intelligence (AI) and modeling with the application of Python scripts in three-dimensional (3D) printing brachytherapy. Methods A Transformer + U-Net AI neural network model was constructed, and Adam optimizer was used to ensure rapid gradient descent. Computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging data of patients were standardized and processed as self-made data sets. The training set was used to train AI and the optimal result weight parameters were saved. The test set was used to evaluate the AI ability. Python programming language was used to write an automated script to obtain the output segmentation image and convert it to the STL file for import. The source applicator and needle could be automatically modeled. The time of automatic segmentation and modeling and the time of manual segmentation and modeling were entered by two people, and the difference was verified by paired t-test. Results Dice similarity coefficient (DSC), mean intersection over union (MIOU), and Hausdorff distance (HD95) were used for evaluation. DSC was 0.9341, MIOU was 0.8762, and mean HD95 was 2.516. The mean time of manual segmentation was 1187 s, and the mean time of AI segmentation was 145 s (P < 0.01). The mean time of manual modeling was 321 s, and the mean time of modeling with Python automated scripts was 18 s (P < 0.01). Conclusion The application of Transformer + U-Net automatic segmentation and Python automated scripts can effectively improve work efficiency in the 3D printing brachytherapy for cervical cancer.

Objective To analyze the effect of neurofeedback training based on early start Denver model(ESDM)on children with autism spectrum disorder(ASD). Methods From August,2020 to May,2024,a total of 60 children with ASD from Hangzhou Children's Hospital were randomly divided into control group(n=30)and observation group(n=30).The control group received ESDM intervention,while the observation group received neurofeedback training in addition,for six months.They were assessed with Autism Treatment Evaluation Checklist(ATEC)and Psycho-Educational Profile-3rd Edition(PEP-3). Results After treatment,the score of ATEC was lower in the observation group than in the control group(t=3.545,P<0.05),the scores of cognition(t=2.236,P=0.029),emotional expression(t=2.293,P=0.025)and problem be-havior(Z=2.099,P=0.036)were higher in the observation group than in the control group.The score differenc-es of ATEC(Z=3.620,P<0.001),and cognition(Z=2.920,P<0.05)and problem behaviors(Z=4.209,P<0.05)of PEP-3 before and after intervention were higher in the observation group than in the control group. Conclusion Combination of neurofeedback training could improve the effect of ESDM on ASD.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of hypomethylating agents (HMA) in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) .Methods:A total of 409 MDS patients from 45 hospitals in Zhejiang province who received at least four consecutive cycles of HMA monotherapy as initial therapy were enrolled to evaluate the efficacy and safety of HMA. Mann-Whitney U or Chi-square tests were used to compare the differences in the clinical data. Logistic regression and Cox regression were used to analyze the factors affecting efficacy and survival. Kaplan-Meier was used for survival analysis. Results:Patients received HMA treatment for a median of 6 cycles (range, 4-25 cycles) . The complete remission (CR) rate was 33.98% and the overall response rate (ORR) was 77.02%. Multivariate analysis revealed that complex karyotype ( P=0.02, OR=0.39, 95% CI 0.18-0.84) was an independent favorable factor for CR rate. TP53 mutation ( P=0.02, OR=0.22, 95% CI 0.06-0.77) was a predictive factor for a higher ORR. The median OS for the HMA-treated patients was 25.67 (95% CI 21.14-30.19) months. HMA response ( P=0.036, HR=0.47, 95% CI 0.23-0.95) was an independent favorable prognostic factor, whereas complex karyotype ( P=0.024, HR=2.14, 95% CI 1.10-4.15) , leukemia transformation ( P<0.001, HR=2.839, 95% CI 1.64-4.92) , and TP53 mutation ( P=0.012, HR=2.19, 95% CI 1.19-4.07) were independent adverse prognostic factors. There was no significant difference in efficacy and survival between the reduced and standard doses of HMA. The CR rate and ORR of MDS patients treated with decitabine and azacitidine were not significantly different. The median OS of patients treated with decitabine was longer compared with that of patients treated with azacitidine (29.53 months vs 20.17 months, P=0.007) . The incidence of bone marrow suppression and pneumonia in the decitabine group was higher compared with that in the azacitidine group. Conclusion:Continuous and regular use of appropriate doses of hypomethylating agents may benefit MDS patients to the greatest extent if it is tolerated.

OBJECTIVE To study the differences in toxicity between intravenous(iv)administration and aqueous solution exposure of Dichroa alkali salt(DAS)in zebrafish.METHODS ① Well-devel-oped zebrafish larvae of 2 d post fertilization(2 dpf)were randomly divided into the normal control(no treatment),solvent control(saline,iv),and DAS groups(0.125,0.25,0.50,1.00 and 2.00 mg·kg-1,iv)before being observed for 3 consecutive days after administration.A heart rate of 0 was determined as death of zebrafish,and the mortality rate,maximum non-lethal dose(MNLD),and 10 percent lethal dose(LD10)were calculated.The incidence of venous sinus congestion,pericardial edema,slowing heart rate and blood flow of zebrafish in the 0.50 and 2.00 mg·kg-1 groups were observed and calculated by somatoscopic microscopy at 4 h after drug administration.Zebrafish larvae were iv given DAS at doses of 0.041,0.136,0.412,and 0.452 mg·kg-1 while the malformation phenotypes of zebrafish larvae development were observed under a stereomicroscope for 3 consecutive days,including pericardial edema,abnormal heart rate,slow blood flow,loss of circulation,eye abnormalities,brain malforma-tions,jaw abnormalities,loss/degeneration of the liver,delayed yolk sac absorption,intestinal abnormal-ities,abnormal body coloration,body edema,curvature of the trunk/tail/nodal cord and muscle degener-ation before the incidence was calculated.②Zebrafish larvae were randomly divided into a normal control group and DAS aqueous solution exposure groups at concentrations of 2.5,5.0,10.0,25.0,50.0,75.0,and 100.0 mg·L-1,observed for 3 d until the mortality rate,LD10,and MNLD were calculated.Zebrafish were exposed to DAS aqueous solutions at concentrations of 0.32,1.06,3.20,and 11.00 mg·L-1,and the malformation phenotypes of zebrafish larvae development were observed under a stereomicro-scope for 3 consecutive days to calculate the incidence.RESULTS ① The MNLD and LD10 of DAS iv administered to zebrafish larvae were 0.412 and 0.452 mg·kg-1,respectively.Compared with the solvent control group,4 h after DAS iv administration,the incidence of sinus congestion,slow heart rate and pericardial edema in the 0.50 and 2.00 mg·kg-1 groups significantly increased(P<0.05,P<0.01),so was the incidence of slow blood flow in the 2.00 mg·kg-1 group(P<0.01).The rate of delayed yolk sac absorption was significantly increased in the 0.041,0.136,0.412,and 0.452 mg·kg-1 groups(P<0.05,P<0.01),so was the mortality rate in the 0.452 mg·kg-1 group(P<0.05),with pericardial edema observed in the dead zebrafish.② The MNLD and LD10 of DAS aqueous solution exposure for zebrafish larvae were 3.20 and 11.00 mg·L-1,respectively.Compared with the normal control group,the incidence of decreased heart rate and slow blood flow was significantly increased in the 3.20 and 11.00 mg·L-1 groups(P<0.01),so was the incidence of significantly darkened intestines in the 1.06,3.20,and 11.00 mg·L-1 groups(P<0.01).The incidence of delayed yolk sac absorption was significantly increased in the 0.32,1.06,3.20,and 11.00 mg·L-1 groups(P<0.05,P<0.01),so was the incidence of trunk curvature and lower jaw malformation in the 11.00 mg·L-1 group(P<0.01).CONCLUSION The toxic phenotypes of DAS are different between iv administration and aqueous solution exposure in zebrafish larvae.DAS aqueous solution exposure can not only lead to slow heart rate,slow blood rheology,delayed yolk sac absorption and intestinal blackening,but also induce neurodevelopmental toxicity.However,iv adminis-tration can effectively ward off significant gastrointestinal damage and neurodevelopmental toxicity.

A puerpera with a obstetric history of gravida 2, para 2, underwent blood typing due to the presence of agglutination reactions in her serum against all tested red blood cells. She was found to be blood type O and her RhD phenotype was identified as CcDEe through serological testing. The reaction agglutination intensity between her serum and 26 O-type blood cells from the panel was 2+. Whole genome sequencing was performed, yielding data on 4014 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and 958 insertion/deletion (INDEL) loci across 50 genes responsible for encoding blood group systems. Among these, only a single SNP , rs72552713 was predicted to be a highly harmful variant, which is the c.376C>T variation in the ABCG2 gene encoding JR blood group antigen, leading to the premature stop codon (p.Gln126Ter). The c.376C>T variation has been named the ABCG2*01N.01 by the working party on Red Cell Immunogenetics and Blood Group Terminology of International Society of Blood Transfusion. The postpartum woman was found to have the Jr(a-) phenotype. Whole genome sequencing can accurately determine the antigens of blood group systems in some difficult specimens.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the molecular mechanism for an individual with Bweak subtype. METHODS: Serological methods were used to identify the proband's phenotype. In vitro enzyme activity test was used to determine the activity of B-glycosyltransferase (GTB) in her serum. The genotype was determined by PCR amplification and direct sequencing of exons 5 to 7 and flanking sequences of the ABO gene. T-A cloning technology was used to isolate the haploids. The primary physical and chemical properties and secondary structure of the protein were analyzed with the ProtParam and PSIPRED software. Three software, including PolyPhen-2, SIFT, and PROVEAN, was used to analyze the effect of missense variant on the protein. RESULTS: Serological results showed that the proband's phenotype was Bweak subtype with anti-B antibodies presented in her serum. In vitro enzyme activity assay showed that the GTB activity of the subject was significantly reduced. Analysis of the haploid sequence revealed a c.398T>C missense variant on the B allele, which resulted in a novel B allele. The 398T>C variant has caused a p.Phe133S substitution at position 133 of the GTB protein. Based on bioinformatic analysis, the amino acid substitution had no obvious effect on the primary and secondary structure of the protein, but the thermodynamic energy of the variant protein has increased to 6.07 kcal/mol, which can severely reduce the protein stability. Meanwhile, bioinformatic analysis also predicted that the missense variant was harmful to the protein function. CONCLUSION The weak expression of the Bweak subtype may be attributed to the novel allele of ABO*B.01-398C. Bioinformatic analysis is helpful for predicting the changes in protein structure and function.

【Objective】 To analyze the HIV-, HCV- and HBV- NAT yield rate in different areas of Henan province, so as to provide the basis for disease prevention and control as well as the establishment of a unified quality control standard for nucleic acid testing(NAT) in the Henan province. 【Methods】 The number and prevalence of NAT yielding samples with isolated infectious virus, namely HIV, HCV and HBV, in 18 blood stations in Henan province from 2017~2019, as well as the trends were analyzed. The NAT quality of each laboratory and each testing system was analyzed according to the ratio of reactive individual donation(ID) results to reactive minipools(MP). 【Results】 The HBV, HCV and HIV ID-NAT yield numbers in 3 501 251 blood donations were HBV 2 606(74/100 000), HCV 21 (0.63/100 000), and HIV 34(1.00/100 000). The HBV ID-NAT yield rate showed an upward trend in the whole province from 2017 to 2019, while the prevalence of HIV and HCV ID-NAT yield didn′t differ significantly during three years. 5 kinds of NAT detection systems were applied in 18 blood centers. among which Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅳ and Ⅴ were triplex detection systems. 2661 ID-reactive samples were implicated in 5 595 MP-reactive samples, with a resolution rate of 47.56%. The resolution rate of triplex NAT system Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅳ and Ⅳ was 39.63%~47.95%, 40.43%~54.36%, 51.61% and 70.00%~45.45%, respectively. An upward trend in triplex NAT resolution rate was observed in 8 laboratories, i. e.B, D, E, F, I, K, L and Q, and an descending trend in A and C. The NAT system Ⅲ, a ID-NAT system, was used only by laboratory C, presenting a NAT-yield rate of 0.19% (282/145 474) and resolution rate of 46.45% (131/282). 【Conclusion】 The majority of NAT-yield of one infectious virus in Henan province is HBV, presenting annual increasing trend. The quality management of NAT laboratories should be strengthened as the divergence was seen in the performance of different NAT laboratories.

【Objective】 To analyze the cause of single-ELISA reactive of four blood screening items in 18 blood stations in Henan, so as to provide the basis for improving the quality of blood screening. 【Methods】 The single-ELISA reactive rate of HBsAg, anti-HCV, HIV Ag/Ab and anti-TP of 18 blood station laboratories in Henan throughout 2019 was calculated, and the causes were analyzed according to different ELISA reagent combinations and gray area settings in each laboratory. 【Results】 The overall single-ELISA reactive rates of HBsAg, anti-HCV, HIV Ag/Ab and anti-TP were 1.740(2 154/1 237 789), 0.564‰(698/1 237 789), 1.421‰(1 759/1 237 789) and 1.561‰(1 932/1 237 789), respectively, showing significant differences by detection items (P <0.05). Person correlation analysis showed that the single-ELISA reactive rate was independent of the gray area settings.but dependent on laboratories and reagent combinations. The single-ELISA reactive rate of HBsAg, anti-HCV, HIV Ag/Ab and anti-TP in D laboratory was the highest and higher than that in other labs using the same reagent.The laboratories with high HBsAg single-ELISA reactive rate were mostly those using a combination of imported reagents and domestic reagents, including the top 6 laboratories. The laboratories with high anti-HCV single-ELISA reactive rate were mostly those using certain domestic reagents. No obvious rules was noticed by single-ELISA reactive for anti-HIV. Laboratories with high anti-TP single-ELISA reactive rate were mostly those using combination 4. 【Conclusion】 The HBsAg single-ELISA reactive rate was the highest in the four blood screening items of blood station laboratories in Henan. The single-ELISA reactive rate is related to the laboratory itself and the reagent manufacturer, suggesting that laboratory quality control should be strengthened and proper reagent combination should be selected to reduce the waste of blood.

【Objective】 To explore the effect of bisoprolol on ICa，Lin volume overload combined with pressure overload heart failure in rabbits. 【Methods】 Totally 82 male New Zealand rabbits （2.5-3.0 kg） were randomly divided into three groups： SO （sham group）， HF （heart failure group）， and BF （heart failure with bisoprolol treatment group）. HF rabbits were duplicated by aortic valve insufficiency procedure combined with abdominal aorta constriction procedure. Real-time PCR and Western blot analysis were performed to detect the expression of ICa，L in left ventricular myocytes. Left ventricular myocytes were isolated； then the cell membrane capacitance， the current density， activation and inactivation of ICa，L were recorded by whole cell patch clamp. 【Results】 ① Bisoprolol could improve the heart function of heart failure rabbits according to the measurement of echocardiography and BNP. ② The expressions of ICa，L mRNA and protein decreased significantly in heart failing rabbits （P<0.01）， but remained unaltered after chronic bisoprolol treatment （P>0.05）. ③ Membrane capacitance was larger in heart failing groups than in sham group （P<0.01）. ICa，L current density decreased greatly in HF group （P<0.01）. Bisoprolol treatment could not change Cm or ICa，L density （P>0.05）. V1/2 of activation curve negative shift enlarged window currents in heart failure groups. Bisoprolol treatment caused window currents to decrease. 【Conclusion】 Bisoprolol could reverse the heart function of heart failure rabbits and also affect the function of ICa，L.
