Objective To investigate the predictive value of dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging(DCE-MRI)radiomics combined with Magee equation 3(ME3)for pathological response following neoadjuvant chemotherapy(NAC)in patients with hormone receptor-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative(HR+/HER2-)breast cancer.Methods A ret-rospective analysis was performed on 325 breast cancer patients diagnosed with HR+/HER2-in two hospitals.Patients from the first hospital were randomly divided into training and internal validation sets at a ratio of 7∶3.Patients from the second hospital served as external validation set.The volume of interest(VOI)of breast cancer was delineated on DCE-MRI images.Then the rele-vant radiomics features were extracted and selected,and the Radiomics score(Radscore)was calculated.The statistically significant clinical and pathological features and Radscore were incorporated into a multivariate analysis.The combined radiomics-clinical model and nomogram were established,and the prediction performance was evaluated by using the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,calibration curve,and decision curve analysis(DCA).Results In the training set,seven radiomics features were selected to construct the radiomics model.ME3 score emerged as the independent factor for pathological complete response(pCR)(P＜0.001).By integrating ME3 score and Radscore,a combined radiomics-clinical model was developed.This model demonstrated robust predictive accuracy,with area under the curve(AUC)of 0.88[95％confidence interval(CI)0.80-0.95],0.90(95％CI 0.82-0.98),and 0.82(95％CI 0.70-0.93)in the training,internal validation,and external validation sets,respectively.The nomogram construc-ted from the combined model exhibited excellent discrimination and calibration,with P-values of 0.455,0.312 and 0.062 in the train-ing,internal validation,and external validation sets.Conclusion DCE-MRI radiomics combined with ME3 can be used to predict the pathological response of NAC in HR+/HER2-breast cancer.

The application of research-oriented thinking to audit work represents a new-era requirement for audit practices.Research-based audit enhances audit effectiveness and strengthens oversight outcomes.Based on the characteristics of public hospitals,it expounds the connotation of research-based internal audit of public hospitals based on audit elements,and proposes three research-based internal audit models of public hospitals:policy-centered,project-centered,and fund-centered approaches.The characteristics and applicable conditions of the three modes are analyzed to provide references for public hospitals to conduct internal audits under the goal of achieving high-quality development.

Gastric cancer, a highly malignant tumor, has seen a persistent rise in global incidence in recent years. Claudin 18.2, a protein with highly specific expression in gastric cancer, has emerged as a prominent research target in therapeutic development. The overexpression of Claudin 18.2 in gastric cancer cells and its abnormal surface exposure provide novel opportunities for targeted and immunotherapeutic interventions. Therapeutic approaches targeting Claudin 18.2 have shown promising initial results in clinical trials, primarily including monoclonal antibodies and chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapies. The authors systematically summarize the biological characteristics, mechanism of action, clinical research progress, and future treatment prospects and challenges of Claudin 18.2.

Objective:This study aimed to analyze the homology between carbapenem-resistant organisms (CRO) intestinal colonization strains and bloodstream infection (BSI) strains in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), confirming the clinical use of the real-time rectal swab Xpert Carba-R assay, and investigate its feasibility in early warning of BSI.Methods:Drug-resistant strains obtained from rectal swabs and blood culture samples of patients undergoing the same HSCT from January 2021 to December 2021 were collected and analyzed. The homology of the CRO intestinal colonization and BSI strains was confirmed using strain identification, antimicrobial resistance phenotyping, whole genome sequencing (WGS), multilocus sequence typing (MLST), and carbapenemase type identification. Rectal swab cultures and the real-time rectal swab Xpert Carba-R assay were conducted concurrently on patients with HSCT from August 2021 to August 2022. The accuracy of the real-time rectal swab Xpert Carba-R assay was confirmed with the sequencing results of polymerase chain reaction amplification products of the carbapenemase gene from purified colonies as a reference standard.Results:This study included 24 CRO strains from 10 patients undergoing HSCT, including 14 intestinal colonizers and 10 CRO-BSI strains. The results revealed that the CRO intestinal colonization strains and CRO-BSI strains from the same patient and their carbapenemase genes were almost identical. Additionally, WGS revealed that CRO intestinal colonization and CRO-BSI strains from the same patient were more closely related than strains from different patients. Additionally, this study included 488 rectal swab specimens from 184 patients undergoing HSCT, with CRO detection rates of 16.4% for rectal swab culture and 18.4% for the real-time rectal swab Xpert Carba-R assay. The overall sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values of the real-time rectal swab Xpert Carba-R assay were 96.6%, 72.8%, 90.6%, and 88.9%, respectively.Conclusions:A high degree of homology was found between the CRO intestinal colonization strains and the CRO-BSI strains in patients undergoing HSCT. The real-time rectal swab Xpert Carba-R assay is a reliable and convenient method for detecting common carbapenemase genes, serving as an alternative to rectal swab culture for early warning of CRO-BSI.
