Objective　 : To analyze the monitoring data of 131I internal exposure in Guangdong Province over the past 3years, study the thyroid 131I contamination levels among nuclear medicine staff, and provide a basis for optimizing themonit-oring plan. Methods　 : Using a convenience sampling method, 574 detections of nuclear medicine staff from 28 hospitals inGuangdong Province were included in the study. The thyroid 131I activity was measured directly in vivo. Differences indetec-tion rates were analyzed, and committed effective doses were estimated. Results　 : Over the past 3 years in GuangdongProvince, 131I accumulation was found in the thyroids of staff from 14 hospitals for 62 (10.8%) detections, with an averageactivity of 154.8 (13.2-8730.6) Bq. The adjusted annual intake was 50.7 (4.5-820.6) kBq. The committed effective dose was0.56 (0.05-9.03) mSv/a, and the values were ≥ 2 mSv for 8 persons. Among different positions, nurses showed the highestdetection rate (19.6%), followed by cleaners (14.7%), with significant differences (P<0.05). Among different exposure types,the detection rate was highest for loading medication into automatic dispenser (23.3%), and the mean activity was highest forentering thyroid cancer patient ward (495.4 Bq), with significant differences (P<0.05). Conclusion　 Monitoring of 131Iin-ternal exposure in Guangdong Province found that the radiation doses of some staff members had exceeded the thresholdspecified in other investigations. Routine personal 131I internal exposure monitoring should be conducted, with increasedmonitoring frequency. Priority should be given to nurses and cleaners, with monitoring extended to cleaners and outsourceddispensing staff.

Radiation prevention and treatment drugs are a rapidly developing field.Radiation prevention and treatment drugs can be roughly divided into four categories:chemical synthetic drugs,biological products,natural plant extracts and traditional Chinese medicine compounds,which are widely used in medical,scientific research and other fields.This paper reviews the classification of radiation prevention and treatment drugs,which can be roughly divided into four categories:chemical synthetic drugs,biological products,natural plant extracts and traditional Chinese medicine compounds.At the same time,its mechanism of action and clinical application are elaborated in detail,and the risk assessment is carried out from the aspects of effectiveness,safety and drug interaction.Finally,the risk reduction strategies are summarized from the aspects of clinical medication specification and monitoring,continuous drug safety research,improvement of emergency reserve and support capacity and construction of full-cycle regulatory system,so as to provide reference for the rational application and further research of radiation prevention and treatment drugs.

This paper reported a case of fetal congenital chloride diarrhea (CCD) indicated by prenatal ultrasound and confirmed by whole-exome sequencing. At 26 weeks and two days of gestation, a routine prenatal ultrasound revealed fetal bowel dilation and numerous floating echogenic particles in the amniotic fluid, suggesting the possibility of CCD. Multiple follow-up ultrasounds in late pregnancy showed persistent bowel dilation, polyhydramnios with numerous floating echogenic particles, and fetal development larger than the gestational age. Whole-exome sequencing and Sanger validation revealed two compound heterozygous mutations in the fetal SLC26A3 gene: c.2006C>A (p.S669*) inherited from the mother and c.1355T>A (p.L452Q) inherited from the father, leading to a diagnosis of CCD. Postnatally, the infant exhibited persistent watery diarrhea. Based on prenatal ultrasound and diagnostic results, the infant was immediately given intravenous and oral electrolyte supplementation after birth, preventing severe electrolyte imbalance. As of June 2024, the infant was five months old, with follow-up showing good growth and development.

Objective:To explore the value of fetal heart quantification technology in assessing the morphology and function of the fetal heart during normal pregnancy.Methods:This prospective cohort study selected normal fetuses from healthy pregnant women who underwent prenatal ultrasound examinations at Hunan Provincial People's Hospital from January 2023 to October 2024. Using the GE Voluson E10 color Doppler diasonography, routine obstetric ultrasound and fetal echocardiography were performed to assess fetal growth and development and to exclude intracardiac and extracardiac malformations. Clear four-chamber view (4CV) dynamic images of the heart showing the endocardium (duration ≥3 s) were collected. Speckle-tracking analysis was performed using fetal heart quantification software. The measured indicators included the global spherical index (GSI), end-diastolic length of the heart (L-ED), end-diastolic width of the heart (W-ED), and the global longitudinal strain (GLS), fractional area change (FAC), and 24-segment spherical index (SI) of the left ventricle (LV) and right ventricle (RV). The cases were divided into five groups based on gestational age at the time of prenatal ultrasound: 20 +0 to 23 +6, 24 +0 to 27 +6, 28 +0 to 31 +6, 32 +0 to 35 +6, and 36 +0 to 40 +6 weeks. One-way analysis of variance, two independent samples t-test, univariate linear regression analysis, and Pearson correlation analysis were used to explore the differences in the above indicators among different gestational age groups and their correlation with gestational age. Results:A total of 200 pregnant women were included in the cohort, four cases were excluded due to poor image quality that prevented accurate tracking and measurement of relevant indicators. Ultimately, 196 cases (20 +0 to 23 +6 weeks 40 cases, 24 +0 to 27 +6 weeks 34 cases, 28 +0 to 31 +6 weeks 41 cases, 32 +0 to 35 +6 weeks 48 cases, and 36 +0 to 40 +6 weeks 33 cases) were included in the study, with a successful image analysis rate of 98.0%. (1) There were statistically significant differences in 4CV L-ED, 4CV W-ED, LV-FAC, and RV-FAC among the groups at 20 +0 to 23 +6, 24 +0 to 27 +6, 28 +0 to 31 +6, 32 +0 to 35 +6, and 36 +0 to 40 +6 weeks [4CV L-ED: 28.0±3.0, 32.6±4.3, 40.9±4.3, 46.7±4.8, 53.1±5.8, F=3.72; 4CV W-ED: 21.9±1.8, 25.1±4.2, 31.7±3.0, 37.4±4.0, 42.0±4.9, F=2.61; LV-FAC: (51.4±8.0)%, (49.0±10.4)%, (47.3±7.3)%, (43.1±7.5)%, (40.7±8.2)%, F=2.94; RV-FAC: (49.9±10.8)%, (46.2±12.0)%, (46.3±8.3)%, (43.2±8.0)%, (41.9±5.6)%, F=3.09; all P<0.05].(2) The size of the normal fetal heart gradually increased with gestational age, while the heart morphology remained relatively stable (4CV L-ED and 4CV W-ED were positively correlated with gestational age, with regression coefficients of 1.313 and 1.325, respectively, both P<0.001;LV-FAC and RV-FAC were negatively correlated with gestational age with regression coefficients of -0.783 and -0.552, respectively, both P<0.001; GSI, LV-GLS and RV-GLS had no correlations with gestational age, all P>0.05). (3) The SI of LV segments 1 to 17 were higher than the SI of the corresponding RV segments, and the SI of RV segments 20-24 were higher than that of the corresponding LV segments (all P<0.001). Conclusion:Fetal heart quantification technology has a certain value in the assessment of fetal cardiac morphology and function.

Objective To explore limb coordination patterns and energy flow strategies during the sit-to-stand(STS)transition in individuals with patellofemoral pain(PFP),so as to provide a theoretical evidence for the pathogenesis of PFP and subsequent formulation of treatment and rehabilitation strategies for PFP patients.Methods A totoal of 36 participants was recruited for the STS test.They were divided into the unilateral PFP group(unilateral group),bilateral PFP group(bilateral group),and control group,based on the number of limbs affected by PFP.An infrared motion capture system and a three-dimensioanl force plate were used for motion capture.Visual 3D and Matlab software were used to calculate the trunk and pelvis angles,angular velocities,linear velocities,and proximal and distal joint forces.Additionally,the angles,torques,and joint forces of the hip,knee,and ankle joints,along with the angular and linear velocities of the thigh and shank,were computed.Coupling angles was used to represent coordination patterns via vector coding;the segmental net energy integration method was used to calculate energy flow within segments at each stage.Results For the coordination pattern at frontal plane,the proximal coordination mode frequency of the pelvis-hip coordination in the flexion momentum phase(FMP)was higher in unilateral group than that in bilateral group(P=0.024).In the momentum transfer phase(MTP),the frequency of in-phase coordination in the trunk-pelvis coordination was higher in unilateral group than that in bilateral group(P=0.023),while the frequency of distal coordination was higher in control group than in that in unilateral group(P=0.032).For the knee-ankle coordination pattern,the frequency of distal coordination in control group was lower than that in unilateral and bilateral groups(P=0.025,P=0.005).In segmental energy flow,during the FMP,the energy output from the pelvis during extension phase(MP)was higher in bilateral group than that in control group(P=0.021).Conclusions PFP affects energy flow patterns and coordination patterns at frontal plane during the STS transition.Individuals in unilateral group may engage in lateral pelvic and ankle movements as a dynamic compensation for patellofemoral joint pressure,whereas individuals in bilateral group appear to increase pelvic region energy output and employ a more complex whole-body coordination pattern to compensate for functional deficits in the knee caused by PFP.

Objective To explore the feasibility and corresponding implementation methods of constructing a sample resource bank based on individual-level data of completed clinical trials and using it to construct external controls for drug/device clinical trials.Methods Taking the pre-marketing clinical trial of transcatheter active valve replacement(TAVR)for the treatment of aortic valve stenosis as an example,the individual-level databases of multiple trials were standardized to form a sample bank.The original data of any trial in the sample bank were selected as the experimental group,and the remaining samples were selected as the control group.The potential confounding was handled by using the propensity score matching and stratification methods to clarify the process of constructing external controls based on the sample bank of individual-level data of clinical trials.Results This study included individual-level data of single-group trials of 4 TAVR devices,with a total of 569 subjects(59.2%male).The number of subjects in Trials 1 to 4 was 120,120,163,and 166,respectively.Propensity score matching enabled the matching of 113,117,125,and 147 subjects with comparable or similar characteristics from individual-level data from other trials,respectively,demonstrating a high matching success rate.The PS score distribution plot after stratification showed that the proportions of subjects in the experimental and control groups in strata 1 to 5 in scheme 1 were 4/103,11/103,22/92,32/87,and 51/64,respectively.For all constructed external controlled trials,a certain number of control samples with similar baseline characteristics to the experimental groups were distributed within each propensity score stratum.The results of the simulation test also reflected the potential differences between different devices in the 12-month all-cause mortality rate.Conclusions The sample bank constructed with individual-level data from clinical trials,as a high-quality data source,can serve as a source of external control for single-arm trials in the same field,and as a useful supplement to the external control scenario of real-world evidence to support drug and device development.At the same time,targeted research on research methods and bias control measures in related fields is also needed.
