Objective To explore the clinical value of artificial intelligence (AI) quantitative parameters in distinguishing pathological grades of stageⅠ invasive adenocarcinoma (IAC). Methods Clinical data of patients with clinical stageⅠ IAC admitted to Yantaishan Hospital Affiliated to Binzhou Medical University from October 2018 to May 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Based on the 2021 WHO pathological grading criteria for lung adenocarcinoma, IAC was divided into gradeⅠ, grade Ⅱ, and grade Ⅲ. The differences in parameters among the groups were compared, and logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the predictive efficacy of AI quantitative parameters for grade Ⅲ IAC patients. Parameters were screened using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis. Three machine learning models were constructed based on these parameters to predict grade Ⅲ IAC and were internally validated to assess their efficacy. Nomograms were used for visualization. Results A total of 261 IAC patients were included, including 101 males and 160 females, with an average age of 27-88 (61.96±9.17) years. Six patients had dual primary lesions, and different lesions from the same patient were analyzed as independent samples. There were 48 patients of gradeⅠ IAC, 89 patients of grade Ⅱ IAC, and 130 patients of grade Ⅲ IAC. There were statitical differences in the AI quantitive parameters such as consolidation/tumor ratio (CTR), ect among the three goups. (P<0.05). Univariate analysis showed that the differences in all variables except age were statistically significant (P<0.05) between the group gradeⅠ+grade Ⅱand the group grade Ⅲ . Multivariate analysis suggested that CTR and CT standard deviation were independent risk factors for identifying grade Ⅲ IAC, and the two were negatively correlated. Grade Ⅲ IAC exhibited advanced TNM staging, more pathological high-risk factors, higher lymph node metastasis rate, and higher proportion of advanced structure. CTR was positively correlated with the proportion of advanced structures in all patients. This correlation was also observed in grade Ⅲ but not in gradeⅠand grade ⅡIAC. CTR and CT median value were selected by using LASSO regression. Logistic regression, random forest, and XGBoost models were constructed and validated, among which, the XGBoost model demonstrated the best predictive performance. Conclusion Cautious consideration should be given to grade Ⅲ IAC when CTR is higher than 39.48% and CT standard deviation is less than 122.75 HU. The XGBoost model based on combined CTR and CT median value has good predictive efficacy for grade Ⅲ IAC, aiding clinicians in making personalized clinical decisions.

Objective:To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of children with parainfluenza pneumonia complicated with rhabdomyolysis syndrome and acute kidney injury (AKI).Methods:The clinical manifestations, laboratory and imaging examination results and diagnosis and treatment process of a child with parainfluenza pneumonia complicated with rhabdomyolysis syndrome and AKI admitted to the department of intensive medicine of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University on July 14th, 2014 were retrospectively analyzed to provide experience and methods for the treatment of such patients.Results:The patient, a Chinese 11-year-old boy, admitted to hospital with "sore throat, fever, and double lower limb pain for 2 days". The clinical manifestations were sore throat, fever, pain in both lower extremities, fatigue, and soy sauce urine. Limb muscle tenderness, bilateral lower limb was obvious. Laboratory examination showed that blood creatine kinase (CK), MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase (CK-MB), aspartate transaminase (AST), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), α-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (HBDH) and hematuria myoglobin (Mb) were significantly elevated, and blood parainfluenza viruses (1, 2, 3 types) was positive for immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibodies. Chest X-ray shown bronchial pneumonia in the right lower lung. Pneumonia with rhabdomyolysis syndrome was considered. Anti-infection, fluid hydration, alkalized urine, diuresis and other treatment was initially prescribed. However, the condition became worse, combined with secondary epilepsy, AKI, acute heart failure, transferred to the intensive care unit (ICU). The child was put on mechanical ventilation through oral tracheal intubation, continuous hemofiltration, anti-infection and anti-virus treatment. The child's condition gradually recovered, symptoms and signs disappeared, and finally he was discharged with full recovery.Conclusions:Children with parainfluenza pneumonia can induce rhabdomyolysis. If myalgia is progressively worsened and walking is difficult, we should be highly alert to the occurrence of rhabdomyolysis. And when soy sauce urine, hematuria were noticed, and blood CK, Mb increased significantly, rhabdomyolysis syndrome can be diagnosed. Once the diagnosis is established, rehydration, alkaline urine and diuresis should be carried out in a timely manner to increase myoglobin tubular excretion. Antiviral treatment can reduce the dissolution of striated muscles. If blood purification is needed, hemofiltration and/or plasma exchange can be selected.

Objective To investigate the screening strategy of group B streptococcus (GBS) in the reproductive tract of women in the third trimester and analyze its impact on pregnancy outcome. Methods A total of 85 461 pregnant women in 35-37 weeks of gestation from Bao′an Maternity and Child Health Hospital, Jinan University from January 2011 to June 2018 were enrolled. They were divided into 3 periods according to different GBS screening strategies, the unscreened period included 31 384 cases (36.72%), 33 267 cases (38.93%) were included in partial screening period, 20 810 cases (24.35%) were included in screening period. All GBS screening positive pregnant women were given intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis (IAP). The impact on pregnancy outcomes, and the impact of different GBS collection transport and culture methods on the positive rate of GBS screening were analyzed. Results (1) The incidence of neonatal early onset GBS disease (EOGBSD) in unscreened period was 0.03% (11/31 773), in partial screening period was 0.02%(6/33 887), and in screening period, the incidence of neonatal EOGBSD decreased to 0, the difference was statistically significant (χ2=7.86, P=0.02).(2) The incidence of hematogenous infection of GBS in pregnant women was 0.02%(6/33 887) in partial screening period, and there was none in screening period, there was no significant difference (adjusted χ2=3.75, P=0.05). (3) In the screening period, the positive rate of GBS was 14.08%(2 719/19 306), which was significantly higher than the positive rate of GBS in the partial screening period (11.48%, 2 058/17 920; χ2=56.12, P=0.00). (4) Antibiotic sensitivity tests of 4 777 GBS strains showed that the antibiotics with higher resistance rate were tetracycline (81.52%, 3 896/4 777), erythromycin (66.59%, 3 181/4 777), and clindamycin (64.31%, 3 072/4 777). The combination of erythromycin, clindamycin and tetracycline was the most common resistant pattern, accounting for 48.80% (2 331/4 777). No penicillin, ceftriaxone or vancomycin resistant strains was found. Conclusions GBS screening strategy in different regions could combine the local neonatal EOGBSD incidence rate, maternal GBS colonization rate, and the socioeconomic factors to determine whether universal GBS screening or screening for high-risk maternal women. GBS screening positive rate is related to the population, scope of the investigation, the sample collection, delivery and culture methods. The multi-drug resistance rate of GBS is high.[Key words] Streptococcus agalactiae; Streptococcal infections; Neonatal sepsis; Prenatal diagnosis; Pregnancy trimester, third; Pregnancy outcome
