Objective:To explore the application effect of special quality control management for thyroid and breast ultrasound in community hospitals.Methods:This study was a prospective interventional study. From November 2024 to March 2025, the Department of Ultrasound, China-Japan Friendship Hospital conducted special quality control management for thyroid and breast ultrasound in 17 community hospitals in Chaoyang District. Through measures such as standardized training in thyroid and breast ultrasound as well as quality control investigations before and after the training, changes in the qualification rates of ultrasound image storage, report writing, and nodule grading accuracy for thyroid and breast in community hospitals before and after the implementation of this management were compared, A paired t-test was used for statistical analysis. Results:Thyroid ultrasound quality control effects: Image storage qualification rates significantly improved: the qualification rate of image adjustment increased from 62.94%±22.01% to 85.88%±14.17% ( t=6.35, P<0.001), and body markers application rose from 76.47%±4.93% to 95.29%±7.17% ( t=11.14, P<0.001). The qualification rates for nodule sections and blood flow sections both exceeded 95% ( P<0.001). In report writing: the qualification rates for items such as nodule location, measurement, and echo increased by 10%-25%. The description of nodule margins reached 100% ( t=8.79, P<0.001), and the description of echogenic foci features increased from 41.76% to 79.41% ( t=5.46, P<0.001). Nodule classification accuracy significantly improved: The guideline application rate increased from 55.29% to 91.18% ( t=4.84, P<0.001), and the classification correctness rate rose from 54.71% to 69.41% ( t=5.14, P<0.001). Breast ultrasound quality control effects: Overall improvement in image storage qualification rates: body marker application increased from 75.29%±21.54% to 97.00%±65.88% ( t=3.82, P=0.002). The qualification rates for nodule sections and blood flow section imaging both exceeded 94% ( P<0.001). In report writing: the qualification rates for items like nodule location, measurement, and echo increased by 10%-30%. The classification rate of the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) classification rate rose from 68.82% to 98.24% ( t=3.68, P=0.002), and the classification correctness rate increased from 57.65% to 70.00% ( t=2.74, P=0.014). Conclusion:The implementation of special quality control management for thyroid and breast ultrasound is an effective method to improve the quality of ultrasound medical services in community hospitals.

Background:Previous study has found that harmine inhibited the proliferation of gastric cancer cells by down-regulating cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2)expression. However,its molecular mechanism is not fully clear. Aims:To investigate the effect of harmine on proliferation and apoptosis of gastric cancer cells,and explore the role of PTEN/Akt/MDM2 signaling pathway in this process. Methods:Human gastric adenocarcinoma cell line SGC-7901 and MKN-45 were treated with harmine at different concentrations(2,4,8,16,32 μg/mL)for 24,48,and 72 hours. The cell proliferation and apoptosis were detected by MTT assay and Hoechst staining,respectively. The expressions of PTEN,COX-2, phosphorylated Akt(p-Akt)and p-MDM2 were measured by Western blotting. Results:Harmine dose- and time-dependently inhibited proliferation and induced apoptosis of SGC-7901 and MKN-45 cells. Also,harmine dose-dependently increased PTEN expression,and inhibited p-Akt,p-MDM2 and COX-2 expressions in SGC-7901 and MKN-45 cells. Conclusions:Harmine may inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis of gastric cancer cells via down-regulating COX-2 expression through PTEN/Akt/MDM2 signaling pathway.
