After the production of the gradient coil of the magnetic resonance imaging system, electromagnetic field testing is required to verify whether the assembly accuracy meets the electromagnetic field requirements. Since the passive magnetic field B z satisfies the Laplace ,s equation and is a harmonic function, and according to the extreme value principle of harmonic function, the maximum or minimum values of B z can only appear on the boundaries, so the observation points of the magnetic field are generally selected on the surface of the spherical imaging area. For superconducting magnets used for human body magnetic resonance imaging, a spherical area with a center diameter of 40~50 cm is generally selected as the shimming target area. Only the field value of the target area needs to be measured, and the spherical harmonic coefficients obtained after data processing are used to determine the magnetic field performance of the gradient coil. There are many testing principles and methods for electromagnetic fields, so there is no unified way and method in the field of commercial applications. This article is based on the Gauss-Legendre numerical integration, measures and analyzes the magnetic field performance of gradient coils by building a data acquisition system, and this article applies numerical analysis methods to calculate the spherical harmonic coefficients of the magnetic field using discrete test data, providing a feasible method for the production and testing of gradient coils.

Objective:To analyze and compare the interfractional setup errors between two body posi-tioning fixation methods(lithotomy position with carbon fiber full-body fixation frame vs.conventional carbon fiber body fixation frame combined with thermoplastic membrane)in radical radiotherapy for pros-tate cancer,and to calculate the clinical target volume(CTV)to planning target volume(PTV)margin(MPTV)for both methods to optimize immobilization techniques and radiotherapy workflows.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 37 consecutive patients who underwent radical prostate radio-therapy at Peking University First Hospital between August 2021 and March 2023.The patients were di-vided into two groups based on the immobilization method:Group A(18 patients,450 CBCT image sets)used a carbon fiber whole-body fixator in the lithotomy position,while Group B(19 patients,461 CBCT image sets)used a conventional carbon fiber fixator combined with a thermoplastic mask.All the patients underwent daily cone-beam computed tomography(CBCT)image guidance.Bone registration combined with manual registration was used to obtain the setup error data in the left-right(X),cranio-caudal(Y)and anterior-posterior(Z)directions.The positioning errors of the two groups were compared by using the independent sample t-test,the Mann-Whitney U test and the chi-square test.The average positioning error,systematic positioning error(Σ)and random positioning error(δ)were calculated,and the CTV-PTV extension distance was calculated by using the(MPTV=2.5Σ+0.7δ).Results:The analysis of the setup errors in the three-dimensional direction showed significant differences between the two groups(all P<0.01).Specifically,the median(quartile)absolute values of the errors in the X,Y,and Z di-rections of group A were[0.40(0.20,0.70)cm,0.50(0.30,0.80)cm,and 0.35(0.20,0.60)cm],respectively.In group B,the corresponding values were significantly reduced to[0.20(0.10,0.40)cm,0.40(0.20,0.70)cm and 0.20(0.10,0.40)cm].The results of Mann-Whitney U test showed that the differences in each direction were highly statistically significant(X:z=-6.86;Y:z=-2.76;Z:z=-5.71).The cumulative distribution ratio of the setup error displacement within 0.5 cm in the X,Y,and Z directions in group A and group B were 297(66.0%)and 408(88.5%)(P<0.01),250(55.6%)and 285(61.8%)(P=0.055),308(68.4%)and 391(84.8%)(P<0.01),re-spectively.The CTV-PTV margins in three directions were X 0.66 cm in group A and 0.35 cm in group B;Y0.67 cm and 0.45 cm;Z 0.54 cm and 0.42 cm.Conclusion:Conventional carbon fiber human body fixator combined with thermoplastic film can significantly reduce the setup error.However,the car-bon fiber whole-body fixator in the lithotomy position demonstrated larger setup errors in the X,Y,and Z directions compared with the conventional fixator combined with a thermoplastic mask,indicating the need for further workflow optimization.Given that the lithotomy position is essential for transperineal ultrasound-guided techniques,further research and improvements are required to achieve higher positioning accuracy.

Objective:To investigate the effect of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) human histocompatibility leukocyte antigen complex P5 (HCP5) on the neuronal injury induced by oxygen glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R), and to analyze its potential mechanism.Methods:SH-SY5Y cells were divided into control group (CON group, normal medium culture), model group (Model group, OGD/R), interference control group (si-NC group, OGD/R after HCP5 small interfering RNA negative control (si-NC)), HCP5 interference group (si-HCP5 group, OGD/R after HCP5 small interfering RNA (si-HCP5)), HCP5 interference+ inhibitor control group (si-HCP5+ anti-NC group, OGD/R after transfection of si-HCP5, miR-525-5p inhibitor negative control (anti-NC)), HCP5 interference+ miR-525-5p inhibitor group (si-HCP5+ anti-miR-525-5p group, OGD/R after transfection of si-HCP5, miR-525-5p inhibitor). qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of lncRNA HCP5 and miR-525-5p in cells.The activity of SH-SY5Y cells was detected by MTT.The level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the cells was detected by fluorescent probe of dichlorofluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA). The apoptosis of SH-SY5Y cells was detected by flow cytometry.Western blot was used to detect the expression of BTG2, Bcl-2 related X protein (Bax), B lymphocyte tumor 2 (Bcl-2) and cleaved caspase-3 protein.SPSS 25.0 software was used to analyze the data, and one-way ANOVA was used for comparison between multiple groups, and SNK- q test was used for further comparison between two groups. Results:There were statistically significant differences in lncRNA HCP5, miR-525-5p RNA levels and BTG2 protein expression levels among the 6 groups ( F=28.853, 59.241, 13.731, all P<0.001). Compared with the CON group, the Model group had higher level of lncRNA HCP5, lower level of miR-525-5p, and higher level of BTG2 protein (all P<0.05). Compared with the Model group, the si-HCP5 group had lower level of lncRNA HCP5, higher level of miR-525-5p, and lower level of BTG2 protein (all P<0.05). Compared with the si-HCP5+ anti-NC group, the si-HCP5+ anti-miR-525-5p group had higher level of lncRNA HCP5, lower level of miR-525-5p, and higher level of BTG2 protein (all P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in cell activity and ROS levels among the six groups of cells ( F=16.180, 59.950, both P<0.001). The cell activity of the Model group was lower than that of the CON group (0.33±0.12, 0.63±0.11) ( P<0.05), and the ROS level was higher than that of the CON group (224.62±23.27, 100.00±0.00) ( P<0.05). The cell activity of the si-HCP5+ anti-miR-525-5p group was lower than that of the si-HCP5+ anti-NC group (0.38±0.08, 0.58±0.08) ( P<0.05), and the ROS level was higher than that of the si-HCP5+ anti-NC group (207.83±19.39, 135.27±14.36) ( P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in the apoptosis rate and expression levels of apoptotic proteins Bcl-2, Bax, and cleared Caspase-3 among the six groups of cells ( F=27.994, 29.660, 45.000, 52.983, all P<0.001). There were no statistically significant difference in Bax, Bcl-2, cleared Caspase-3 protein levels, and apoptosis rate in SH-SY5Y cells between the Model group and the si-NC group, as well as between the si-HCP5 group and the si-HCP5+ anti-NC group (all P>0.05). Compared with the CON group, the apoptosis rate, levels of Bax and cleared Casase-3 protein in the Model group were significantly upregulated (all P<0.05), while the Bcl-2 protein level was significantly downregulated ( P<0.05). Compared with the Model group and si-NC group, the si-HCP5 group showed significant downregulation of cell apoptosis rate and levels of Bax and cleared Caspase-3 protein (all P<0.05), while the Bcl-2 protein level was upregulated ( P<0.05). Compared with the si-HCP5 group and si-HCP5+ anti-NC group, the si-HCP5+ anti-miR-525-5p group showed significant upregulation of cell apoptosis rate and levels of Bax and cleared Caspase-3 protein levels (all P<0.05), and significant downregulation of Bcl-2 protein levels ( P<0.05). Conclusion:lncRNA HCP5 may inhibit the expression of BTG2 by targeting up-regulation of miR-525-5p, thus leading to apoptosis of nerve cells in OGD/R models.

Objective? To explore the effects of enhanced recovery after surgery based on nutritional support in perioperative nursing of elderly patients with hip fracture and joint replacement. Methods? From January 2015 to June 2017, we selected 278 elderly hip fracture patients with nutritional risk (NRS 2002≥3) by convenience sampling. All of the patients were divided into observation group (n=132) and control group (n=146) with the method of envelope. Observation group accepted nutritional support and brought it into enhanced recovery nursing process. Control group applied routine perioperative nursing without standardized nutritional support. We compared the albumin and loss of hemoglobin at the second day after surgery, the score of activity of daily living (ADL), time of getting out from bed for the first time, hospital stay as well as complications of patients between two groups. Results? The albumin at the second day after surgery and score of ADL of patients in observation group were (29.16±1.33) g/dl and (63.90±5.47) respectively higher than those in control group;the loss of hemoglobin after surgery, time of getting out from bed for the first time, hospital stay in observation group were (1.34±0.30) g/dl, (1.56±0.20)d, (7.08±2.23)d respectively lower than those in control group;the differences were all statistical (t=-3.089, -14.881, -13.640, -15.279, -8.480;P<0.05). The incidence of complications of observation group was 9.09% lower than that of control group (19.18%) with statistical difference (χ2=3.877, P<0.05). Conclusions? Enhanced recovery nursing based on nutritional support can shorten the hospital stay in elderly patients with hip fracture, promote postoperative rehabilitation after hip joint replacement and improve clinical outcomes of patients.
