Objective To investigate the role of inhibition of Runt-associated transcription factor 1(Runx1)expression in arterial interventional chemotherapy for lung cancer in rats.Methods A549 cells were randomly divided into control group(normal cultured cells),si-NC group(transfected with si-NC plasmid),si-Runx1 group(transfected with si-Runx1 plasmid).Cell proliferation was detected by cell counting kit-8(CCK-8)assay,and the relative expression level of protein was detected by Western blotting.Rats were randomly divided into model group(constructed lung cancer transplanted tumor rats),sh-Runx1 group(knockdown Runx1 expression),OXA arterial group(single arterial interventional chemotherapy),sh-Runx1+OXA group(knockdown Runx1+intravenous chemotherapy),sh-Runx1+OXA arterial group(knockdown Runx1+arterial interventional chemotherapy).After continuous treatment for 3 weeks,tumor volume and weight were measured,TdT mediated dUDP nick end labeling(Tunel)assay was used to detect tumor apoptosis,and Western blot assay was used to detect the expression of migration and invasion-related proteins.Results The survival rates of A549 cells in the control group,si-NC group and si-Runx1 group were(100.00±5.13)％,(99.56±3.44)％and(60.96±7.00)％,respectively;the expression levels of Runx1 protein were 0.84±0.06,0.85±0.06 and 0.20±0.03,respectively.Compared with the control group and si-NC group,the cell survival rate and Runx1 protein expression level in the si-Runx1 group were significantly decreased(all P＜0.05).The tumor volume of the model group,sh-Runx1 group,OXA arterial group,sh-Runx1+OXA group and sh-Runx1+OXA arterial group after the last treatment were(1 069.58±121.79),(819.30±6.98),(639.34±66.64),(486.91±29.88),(416.57±21.58)mm3,respectively;the apoptosis rates were(4.32±0.36)％,(13.95±1.22)％,(15.46±1.14)％,(23.71±2.01)％,(31.16±3.04)％,respectively;the expression levels of E-cadherin protein were 0.31±0.05,0.61±0.07,0.67±0.09,0.92±0.07,1.23±0.13,respectively.The above indexes of sh-Runx1 group,OXA arterial group,sh-Runx1+OXA group and sh-Runx1+OXA arterial group were compared with those of the model group,and the difference was statistically significant(all P＜0.05).The above indexes of sh-Runx1+OXA arterial group were compared with those of sh-Runx1,OXA arterial group and sh-Runx1+OXA group,and the difference was statistically significant(all P＜0.05).Conclusion inhibition of Runx1 can enhance the apoptosis induction and cell metastasis inhibition of arterial interventional chemotherapy in lung cancer rats.

Purpose: This study explored the association of the elasticity modulus and shear wave velocity (SWV) of the tibialis anterior muscle, as measured by two-dimensional shear wave elastography (2D-SWE), with the intracompartmental pressure (ICP) determined using the Whitesides method in a New Zealand rabbit model of acute compartment syndrome (ACS). Additionally, it evaluated the viability of 2D-SWE as a noninvasive, quantitative tool for the early detection of ACS. Methods: An ACS model was established through direct external compression by applying pressure bandaging to the lower legs of 15 New Zealand rabbits using neonatal blood pressure cuffs. Another five animals represented a non-modeled control group. To measure the elasticity modulus and SWV of the tibialis anterior muscles, 2D-SWE was employed. Blood oxygen saturation, serum creatine kinase (CK), and myoglobin levels were monitored. Subsequently, the anterior tibial compartment was dissected, and the tibialis anterior was removed for hematoxylin and eosin staining to assess muscle injury. Results: The elasticity modulus and SWV of the tibialis anterior muscle increased with compression duration, as did serum CK and myoglobin levels. ICP was strongly positively correlated with these parameters, particularly mean velocity (r=0.942, P<0.001) and CK (r=0.942, P<0.001). Blood oxygen saturation was negatively correlated with ICP (r=-0.887, P<0.001). Histological analysis indicated progressive muscle cell swelling over time, with damage transitioning from reversible to irreversible and culminating in necrosis. Conclusion In a rabbit ACS model, ICP was strongly positively correlated with muscle elasticity modulus/SWV. Consequently, 2D-SWE may represent a novel tool for assessing early-phase ACS.

As artificial intelligence technology rapidly advances, its deployment within the medical sector presents substantial ethical challenges. Consequently, it becomes crucial to create a standardized, transparent, and secure framework for processing medical data. This includes setting the ethical boundaries for medical artificial intelligence and safeguarding both patient rights and data integrity. This consensus governs every facet of medical data handling through artificial intelligence, encompassing data gathering, processing, storage, transmission, utilization, and sharing. Its purpose is to ensure the management of medical data adheres to ethical standards and legal requirements, while safeguarding patient privacy and data security. Concurrently, the principles of compliance with the law, patient privacy respect, patient interest protection, and safety and reliability are underscored. Key issues such as informed consent, data usage, intellectual property protection, conflict of interest, and benefit sharing are examined in depth. The enactment of this expert consensus is intended to foster the profound integration and sustainable advancement of artificial intelligence within the medical domain, while simultaneously ensuring that artificial intelligence adheres strictly to the relevant ethical norms and legal frameworks during the processing of medical data.

Objective:To investigate clinical and laboratory characteristics of secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (sHLH) associated with secondary cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) .Methods:CTCL patients with clinically suspected sHLH were collected from Department of Hematology, Wuhan No.1 Hospital from January 2016 to October 2021, and were evaluated according to the HLH-2004 diagnostic criteria and HScore.Results:Seven CTCL patients were confirmedly diagnosed with sHLH, including 2 with primary cutaneous γδT-cell lymphoma (PC-GDTCL) , 3 with cutaneous extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (C-ENKTCL) , and 2 with primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma (PC-ALCL) . All the 7 patients received chemotherapy, but 6 died finally, and the median overall survival duration was 26.5 days (range: 14 - 60 days) after the confirmed diagnosis of CTCL complicated by sHLH. HLH-related gene mutations, which were located in the PRF1 and LYST genes, were identified in 2 patients; lymphoma-related gene mutations were identified in the KRAS and KMT2D genes in 1 PC-GDTCL patient,and in the JAK3 and SAMHD1 genes in another PC-GDTCL patient.Conclusions:CTCL complicated by sHLH usually progresses rapidly, so early diagnosis and treatment are needed. Bone marrow biopsy and mutation screening of lymphoma- and HLH-related genes at initial diagnosis and during disease progression may facilitate early diagnosis.
