Medical therapy and surgical intervention are the two primary approaches for treating myocardial bridge.However,there remains controversy regarding the use of coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG)and myocardial bridge unroofing.Here,we report a case of myocardial infarction following CABG in a patient with a myocardial bridge.The patient was admitted to Lanzhou First Peopie's Hospital with persistent chest pain,chest tightness,and shortness of breath lasting 2 hours.Physical examination revealed no significant abnormalities.Electrocardiography(ECG)indicated extensive anterior wall myocardial infarction.Laboratory findings showed myoglobin levels of 140.1 ng/ml and troponin Ⅰ levels of 2.59 ng/ml,with no other significant abnormalities.The initial diagnosis was acute extensive anterior wall myocardial infarction.Emergency coronary angiography revealed a myocardial bridge in the mid-segment of the left anterior descending artery(LAD).Emergency CABG using the left internal mammary artery to the LAD was performed,leading to symptomatic improvement,and the patient was discharged in stable condition.However,the patient experienced a recurrent myocardial infarction seven years post-surgery and received secondary preventive medical therapy.The patient is currently under ongoing follow-up care.CABG is an effective treatment for myocardial bridge.However,based on the case reported in this study,we recommend careful evaluation of whether a patient may benefit from CABG.

Accurate prediction of drug-target interactions (DTIs) plays a pivotal role in drug discovery, facilitating optimization of lead compounds, drug repurposing and elucidation of drug side effects. However, traditional DTI prediction methods are often limited by incomplete biological data and insufficient representation of protein features. In this study, we proposed KG-CNNDTI, a novel knowledge graph-enhanced framework for DTI prediction, which integrates heterogeneous biological information to improve model generalizability and predictive performance. The proposed model utilized protein embeddings derived from a biomedical knowledge graph via the Node2Vec algorithm, which were further enriched with contextualized sequence representations obtained from ProteinBERT. For compound representation, multiple molecular fingerprint schemes alongside the Uni-Mol pre-trained model were evaluated. The fused representations served as inputs to both classical machine learning models and a convolutional neural network-based predictor. Experimental evaluations across benchmark datasets demonstrated that KG-CNNDTI achieved superior performance compared to state-of-the-art methods, particularly in terms of Precision, Recall, F1-Score and area under the precision-recall curve (AUPR). Ablation analysis highlighted the substantial contribution of knowledge graph-derived features. Moreover, KG-CNNDTI was employed for virtual screening of natural products against Alzheimer's disease, resulting in 40 candidate compounds. 5 were supported by literature evidence, among which 3 were further validated in vitro assays.

Objective:To develop a formula correlating body weight and the insertion length of peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC) in very low birth weight infants (VLBWI) undergoing lower limb PICC placement, aiming to improve the success rate of one-time catheter placement.Methods:A prospective research method was adopted, 205 VLBWI patients who were hospitalized in the NICU of Shenzhen Maternal and Child Health Hospital from May 2023 to February 2024 and had indwelling PICC in the lower extremities were selected as the research subjects using the convenience sampling method. Data including gender, insertion vein, body weight on the day of catheterization, and the vertical distance from the puncture site to the first popliteal crease were collected. Pearson correlation analysis and linear regression analysis were used to construct a predictive formula for estimating the insertion length of PICC based on body weight. The Bland-Altman plot was applied to evaluate the consistency between the predicted insertion depth using the formula and the actual correct insertion length.Results:A total of 182 VLBWI were included in the study, comprising 102 male infants and 80 female infants. The catheterization sites were the right lower extremity in 166 cases and the left lower extremity in 16 cases. The body weight was (1.08 ± 0.26) kg. The vertical distance from the puncture site to the first popliteal crease was (5.58 ± 1.72) cm. The prediction formula for the length of lower extremity PICC catheterization was constructed through linear regression analysis: PICC insertion length = 8.013 + [5.194×body weight (kg)] ± vertical distance from the puncture site to the popliteal crease (cm). Consistency evaluation showed good agreement between the predicted insertion depth and the actual correct insertion length, with 95% of the measurement differences falling within the limits of agreement. The mean difference was 0.07 cm ( P > 0.05). Conclusions:The weight-based formula derived for VLBWI provides a basis for predicting the optimal insertion length of PICC in clinical practice.
