Digital biopsy for liver diseases is characterized by the deep integration of artificial intelligence （AI） technologies and large-scale liver disease data， through which intelligent analytics are applied to support clinical decision-making and full-cycle management. This article reviews the AI technical framework based on standardized data governance and centered on multimodal large medical models， covering the application of natural language processing， knowledge map， generative AI， and large language models in the establishment of databases for specialty diseases， diagnosis， prognosis prediction， treatment， and automated medical documentation. This article also discusses the application prospects of this framework in medical education， scientific research， and healthcare management. Although this technique shows broad application potential， it still faces challenges in areas such as multi-center data integration， model interpretability， ethics， and data security. In the future， a smart ecosystem with closed-loop optimization and human-AI collaboration should be established to promote the comprehensive implementation of digital biopsy in the whole process of medicine， education， research， and management， thereby providing help for the precise prevention and control and holistic health management of liver diseases.

Objective:To evaluate the relationship between sevoflurane preconditioning-induced reduction of cognitive impairment and hippocampal necroptosis after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in rats.Methods:Sixty SPF healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 6 months, weighing 400-450 g, were divided into 4 groups ( n=15 each) using the random number table method: control group (group C), sevoflurane group (Sev group), CPB group and CPB+ sevoflurane preconditioning group (CPB+ Sev group). The rats were exposed to 0.4% sevoflurane for 2 h in CPB+ Sev group and Sev group. The CPB model was established at 30 min after the end of sevoflurane preconditioning in CPB+ Sev group. The open field test was performed to assess the autonomic movement ability on the 2nd day after CPB. The Morris water maze test was used to assess the cognitive function on the 3rd day after CPB. The hippocampal tissues were removed after the end of the Morris water maze test for determination of the necroptosis rate and cytosolic calcium concentration of hippocampal neuron ([Ca 2+ ] i) (by flow cytometry) and the expression of phosphorylated receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (p-RIPK1), phosphorylated RIPK3 and phosphorylated mixed-lineage kinase-like domain (p-MLKL) (by Western blot) and for microscopic examination of the ultrastructure of hippocampal neurons (by transmission electron microscopy). Results:There was no statistically significant difference in the parameters of the open field test among the four groups ( P>0.05). Compared with group C, the escape latency was significantly prolonged, the number of crossing the original platform was decreased, the time of staying at the original platform quadrant was shortened, the hippocampal necroptosis rate and [Ca 2+ ] i were increased, the expression of p-RIPK1, p-RIPK3 and p-MLKL was up-regulated ( P<0.05), the organelles of hippocampal neurons swelled, lysosomes broke, and some chromatin in nuclei dissoluted in CPB group. Compared with CPB group, the escape latency was significantly shortened, the number of crossing the original platform was increased, the time of staying at the original platform quadrant was prolonged, the hippocampal necroptosis rate and [Ca 2+ ] i were decreased, the expression of p-RIPK1, p-RIPK3 and p-MLKL was down-regulated ( P<0.05), and the damage to the ultrastructure of hippocampal neurons was sinificantly reduced in CPB+ Sev group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The mechanism by which sevoflurane preconditioning attenuates cognitive impairment may be related to the inhibition of calcium overload-mediated hippocampal necroptosis in a rat model of CPB.

The clinical data of a case of congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract(CAKUT) complicated with ichthyosis diagnosed at Department of Pediatrics, Jinling Hospital, Affiliated Hospital of Medical School, Nanjing University in November 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.The patient, male, 12 years old, exhibited left renal agenesis, right renal dysplasia, renal insufficiency, proteinuria, and ichthyosis.Whole-exome sequencing identified a microdeletion of approximately 1.80 Mb at p22.31 of the X-chromosome, encompassing the ANOS1 and STS genes.Additionally, a heterozygous missense mutation in the EHMT1 gene (c.3664C>A, exon26) on chromosome 9 was detected.The father is clinically normal and did not carry either variant.The mother has proteinuria and was found to carry the same X-chromosome microdeletion as the proband.

Objective:To evaluate the role of mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membranes (MAMs) regulated by protein tyrosine phosphatase interacting protein 51 (PTPIP51) in sevoflurane-induced necroptosis in hippocampal neurons of rats using the in vitro experiment.Methods:Primary cultured hippocampal neurons from fetal rats of Sprague-Dawley rats were inoculated in culture wells (100 μl/well ) or culture flasks (3 ml/bottle) at a density of 5×10 5 cells/ml at 7 days of culture and divided into 4 groups ( n=19 each) using a random number table method: control group (C group), sevoflurane group (Sev group), sevoflurane+ siRNA-PTPIP51 transfection group (Sev+ siPTPIP51 group), and sevoflurane+ nonsense siRNA transfection group (Sev+ siNC group). The neurons were placed in a culture incubator containing 2% sevoflurane and incubated at 37 ℃ for 5 h in Sev, Sev+ siPTPIP51 and Sev+ siNC groups. Then neurons were collected for determination of the cell survival rate (by MTT method), cytoplasmic calcium concentration ([Ca 2+ ] i) and necroptosis rate (by flow cytometry), expression of PTPIP51, receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1), RIPK3, and phosphorylated mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (p-MLKL) (by Western blot) and for microscopic examination of the partial length, endoplasmic reticulum circumference, and mitochondrial circumference of MAMs (with a transmission electron microscope). Results:Compared with group C, the activity of neurons was significantly decreased, the [Ca 2+ ] i and necroptosis rate were increased, the expression of PTPIP51, RIPK1, RIPK3 and p-MLKL was up-regulated, and the ratio of partial length of MAMs to endoplasmic reticulum perimeter and partial length of MAMs to mitochondrial perimeter were increased in group Sev ( P<0.05). Compared with group Sev, the activity of neurons was significantly increased, the [Ca 2+ ] i and necroptosis rate were decreased, the expression of PTPIP51, RIPK1, RIPK3 and p-MLKL was down-regulated, and the ratio of partial length of MAMs to endoplasmic reticulum perimeter and partial length of MAMs to mitochondrial perimeter were decreased in group Sev+ siPTPIP51 ( P<0.05), and no statistically significant changes were found in the above parameters in group Sev+ siNC ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Up-regulation of PTPIP51 expression mediates structural changes in MAMs and is involved in the process of sevoflurane-induced necroptosis in hippocampal neurons of rats.

The policy implementation model of G. C. Edwards was used to analyze the public policy health impact assessment in Zhejiang province, and summarize its practice and existing problems in four aspects of policy implementation standards, policy resources, policy executors′ intention and management organization structure, so as to provide reference for promoting the national health impact assessment pilot work. The analysis results showed that Zhejiang province has initially established the public policy health impact assessment mechanism and achieved phased results, but there were still some problems, including the imperfection of policy content and implementation strategy, the inadequacy of leadership decision-making and top-level design, the difference in attitude, understanding and implementation preference of policy implementation subjects, and the ambiguity of the authority and responsibility system of each department in cooperation. In order to further promote the smooth development of public policy health impact assessment, Zhejiang province should actively promote the top-level design to strengthen policy support, integrate and optimize policy resources, gradually establish and improve the health governance mechanism of multiple and overall coordination, and promote the high-quality development of public policy health impact assessment by taking cross departmental cooperation as the path of health co-construction.

Objective:To monitor and evaluate in vivo dose changes of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) in patients with cervical cancer in a real-time manner. Methods:Twelve patients with cervical cancer admitted to our hospital were enrolled in this study. The in vivo doses were monitored by PerFRACTION?. Electronic portal imaging device (EPID) were collected in each treatment fraction for two-dimensional in vivo dose verification[γ index and dose difference (DD) index]. Log files were recorded for three-dimensional in vivo dose verification (γ index). The correlation between in vivo dose and treatment duration was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis. Results:A total of 206 sets of EPID images and corresponding Log files were collected. The three-dimensional in vivo dose verification γ 1%/1mm of all patients was not correlated with treatment fraction ( P>0.05). Among them, the absolute difference of γ 1%/1mm of 94.66% fractions was< 1%. The mean DD 3% of two-dimensional in vivo dose verification of all patients was negatively correlated with treatment fraction ( P<0.05). Among which, the average γ 3%/3mm of 9 patients was>89% in the treatment fractions, and the average γ 3%/3mm of 98.57% fractions of these 9 patients was>93%. The other 3 patients had an average γ 3%/3mm ranged from 38% to 100%. CBCT images showed that the bladder volume of these 3 patients was significantly decreased with the relative changes by 82.08%, 84.41% and 73.59%, respectively, and the target area was retracted significantly with the relative changes by 38.12%, 59.79% and 24.46%, respectively. Conclusion:Combined with γ index and DD index, PerFRACTION? can monitor the mechanical stability of accelerator and MU delivery accuracy during treatment fractions, and monitor the changes of in vivo dose in patients with cervical cancer, which can improve the safety and quality assurance of IMRT for cervical cancer patients and provide guidance for patients with adaptive radiotherapy.

Objective:To investigate the expression level of TRPM7 in breast cancer tissues and adjacent carcinoma tissues and to analyze its clinicalpathological characteristics.Methods:The expressions of TRPM7 in 87 breast cancer and 47 adjacent tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry, and then the relationship between expression and clinicopathological characteristics was analyzed.Results:The positive rate of TRPM7 in breast cancer tissues was 66.7%, significantly higher than that in para-cancer tissues (10.6%) ( P<0.001) . Meanwhile, TRPM7 expression was much higher in those with tumor diameter≥2 cm ( P=0.023) , TNM stage III ( P=0.001) and lymph node metastasis ( P=0.015) . The expression of TRPM7 has nothing to do with patients’ age ( P=0.455) or histological grade ( P=0.577) . Conclusions:High expression of TRPM7 is associated with the development of breast cancer. TRPM7 may become a potential biological indicator to monitor the prognosis of breast cancer in the future.
