Objective To investigate the value of CT radiomics combined with CT and preoperative pathological features for predicting postoperative early recurrence(ER)of local advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(LAESCC).Methods Data of 334 patients with LAESCC were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into training set(n=234)and verification set(n=100)at the ratio of 7:3 and were followed up to observe ER(recurrence within 12 months after surgery)or not.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used to analyze clinical,CT and preoperative pathological features of LAESCC in patients with or without ER in training set.The independent risk factors of ER were screened,and a CT-preoperative pathology model was constructed.Based on venous phase CT in training set,the radiomics features of lesions were extracted and screened to establish radiomics model,and finally a combined model was established based on radiomics model and the independent risk factors.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were drawn,and the area under the curve(AUC)was calculated to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of each model.Results Among 334 cases,168 were found with but 166 without ER.In training set,117 cases were found with while the rest 117 without ER,while in verification set,51 were found with but 49 without ER.The length of lesions,cT stage and cN stage shown on CT and tumor differentiation degree displayed with preoperative pathology were all independent risk factors for ER of LAESCC(all P＜0.05).The AUC of CT-preoperative pathology model in training set and validation set was 0.759 and 0.783,respectively.Ten best radiomics features of LAESCC were selected,and AUC of the established radiomics model in training set and validation set was 0.770 and 0.730,respectively.The AUC of combined model in training and validation set was 0.838 and 0.826,respectively.The AUC of CT radiomics combined with CT and preoperative pathological features in training set was higher than that of CT-preoperative pathologymodel and radiomics model(both P＜0.01).Conclusion CT radiomics combined with CT and preoperative pathological features could effectively predict postoperative ER of LAESCC.

Chronic osteomyelitis is a serious clinical problem with repeated courses and high disability rate, which seriously affects the physical and mental health of patients. Through continuous learning and summary in the process of using traditional therapies, the innovative improvements and changes had made in the treatment of osteomyelitis: Radical debridement of lesions was performed by applying the basic principles of modern bone tumor surgery. The application of microsurgical technique to transfer composite tissue flap can provide guarantee for tissue defect repair and wound closure without tension. Combined with bone grafting, local antibiotics and bone fixation, an one-stage operation has significantly improve the therapeutic effect of chronic complex osteomyelitis.

Objective:To establish a multicriteria value assessment index system, so as to provide reference for hospitals access of medical consumables.Methods:In May 2021, based on the paper previously published, the expert consultation method was used to finalize the index structure, index definitions and scoring standards, along with an importance grading of the indexes. And the index weights were calculated using the analytical hierarchy process. Then the assessment scale was designed by way of multi-criteria decision analysis and mini-HTA. With the linear cutting stapler used as an example, six clinicians, three hospital administrators and the medical consumable management committee made an empirical analysis and evaluation of its general value. The coefficient of variation and Kendall coefficient of concordance were used to test the consistency of clinicians′ scores.Results:Three rounds of expert consultations finalized an index structure with 4 level-1 and 11 level-2 indexes, and on such basis a multicriteria value assessment index system for hospital access of medical consumables was established. This system comprised the clinician evaluation scale, hospital administrator evaluation scale and medical consumable management committee evaluation scale. The first two of which were used for preliminary screening, and the third for a full-scale, detailed and quantitative evaluation of those selected, hence a decision was made in the end according to the weighted sum of the three scales. This scale system was used to evaluate a foreign brand and a domestic brand of linear cutting staplers, while the former and the latter scored 90.5 and 75.4 respectively. Statistical analysis of the six clinicians found a coefficient of variation CV<0.25, and the Kendall coefficient of concordance W=0.833, proving good consistency of the evaluation criteria and results. Conclusions:The multicriteria value assessment index system proves highly scientific, comprehensive and practicable, serving a good reference for hospitals to build their value-based mechanism to select medical consumables.

From July to August 2021, 60 medical staff and general practice trainees in primary care institutions were randomly assigned in two groups with 30 in each group. The control group received conventional ECG training and the study group received ECG training with artificial intelligence image recognition system. The quantitative assessment was conducted before and 2 months after training. There was no significant difference in baseline scores between two groups (43.33±9.94 vs. 44.33±10.33, P>0.005); while the scores of the study group was significantly higher than that of the control group after training (76.00±11.92 vs. 68.00±9.61, P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the correct rates of atrial fibrillation/atrial flutter, sinus arrhythmia and atrioventricular block in study group were significantly higher than those in control group (100.0% vs. 70.0%, 96.7% vs. 73.3%, 86.7% vs. 43.3%; all P<0.05). It is suggested that the application of artificial intelligence ECG recognition system can significantly increase the teaching effect in primary medical training.

OBJECTIVES: To understand medical students' mental health, professional pride, and intention to work in the front-line during coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, and provide a reference for psychological intervention. METHODS: We used the depression-anxiety-stress scale and self-designed questionnaire on professional pride, intention to work in the front-line and the extent of family support. Medical students from 4 medical schools in Fujian and Hunan were investigated. Their mental health status, professional pride and first-line work willingness with different characteristics were compared, and the influential factors for professional pride and first-line work willingness were analyzed. RESULTS: A total of 266 valid questionnaires were collected. During the pandemic, there were significant differences in the proportion of depressed students among different college and universities, majors and stages (<0.05), and the professional pride was significantly different (<0.001). Medical students with different mental health status showed significant differences in professional pride (<0.01). Marriage, pressure and extent of family support were the influential factors for their professional pride (<0.05). The latter two were also influential factors for their intention to work in the front-line (<0.05). CONCLUSIONS During the pandemic, students from college and nursing have relatively better mental health and higher professional pride. The professional pride is low in medical students who married, with abnormal stress or low family support. The intention to work in front-line is decreased in students with abnormal stress or low family support.

To investigate the effect and application value of transplantation of the free cutaneous fibular flap combined with antibiotic-loaded calcium sulfate artificial bone graft for the treatment of antibrachial chronic osteomyelitis of Cierny-Mader type IV. Methods From August, 2013 to May, 2017, 12 cases of ulna or (and) radius chronic osteomyelitis of Cierny-Mader type IV were treated by transplantation of the free cutaneous fibu-lar flap combined with antibiotic-loaded calcium sulfate artificial bone graft. There were 7 males and 5 females, with an average age of 36.3 (21-47) years.Pure ulnar osteomyelitis in 7 cases, radius osteomyelitis in 4 cases, and both ul-nar and radius osteomyelitis in 1 case. The average range of osteomyelitis lesions was 6.3 (3.0-9.0) cm. The area of soft tissue defect (including bone scar) ranged from 8.0 cm×2.0 cm to 15.0 cm×5.0 cm. The area of the flap was 10.0 cm×3.5cm-17.0 cm×7.0 cm.The average length of the fibular flap was 8.8 (5.0-12.0) cm.Locking plate internal fixa-tion was used in 9 cases, external fixator in 2 cases, and plate combined with external fixator in 1 case. Vancomycin/gentamicin, an effective component of calcium sulfate artificial bone, averaged 0.64 g/102.7 kU (0.4 g/64 kU-1.0 g/160 kU).Routine postoperative treatment.And monthly outpatient review in the first half year after operation, and outpatient review every 3 months after half a year.One year after operation, comprehensive evaluation of elbow, forearm and wrist function with Mayo Elbow Function Index, Anderson Forearm Double Fracture Evaluation System and Cooney Wrist Function Score. Results Vascular crisis occurred in 1 case after operation, prompt surgical exploration, and ultimately all flaps survived completely.The donor sites healed well in all cases.The lower extremity functions of donor sites had no change compared with that before operation.Followed-up of an average of 22.7 months, there were 2 cases who had sen-sory disturbance in the ulnar nerve innervation area and returned to normal 3 months after operation. The fibular flaps healed satisfactorily with an average healing time of 4.7 (3-6) months.No calcium sulphate artificial bone granules were seen on X-ray at 3 months after operation.One year after operation, bone healing, forearm appearance and wrist function recovered well, but elbow and forearm motor function recovered unsatisfactorily. Conclusion On the basis of master-ing the applied anatomy and vascular anastomosis techniques of microsurgery, this method of transplantation of the free cutaneous fibular flap combined with antibiotic-loaded calcium sulfate artificial bone graft for the treatment of an-tibrachial chronic osteomyelitis of Cierny-Mader type IV has achieved satisfactory results.The recipient area is beautiful. The bone healing is reliable.And it has little influence on the recipient area and the donor area.It is worthy of clinical application.
