The traditional detection methods for monitoring the biomass,protein,chlorophyll content and other key indicators in the growth of chlorella have some problems,including complicated operation,slow detection speed and difficult large-scale application.In this study,a fast and efficient monitoring method for the key indicators in the growth of chlorella was established using near infrared spectroscopy and chemometrics.Near-infrared spectroscopy was used to collect near-infrared spectra of chlorella algal fluid at different growth stages,and standard methods were used to detect the biomass,protein and chlorophyll contents of corresponding samples.A quantitative analysis model was established based on partial least squares regression(PLSR).To improve the prediction ability of the model,multiplicative scatter correction(MSC)was used to reduce the interference of scattering on the raw spectrum(RS),standard normal variate(SNV)was used to normalize the original spectral data to eliminate differences between samples,continuous wavelet transform(CWT)was used to obtain the key features of spectral data,the first derivative(1st)was used to enhance the differentiation of the original spectral features,and monte carlo-uninformative variable elimination(MC-UVE)and randomization test(RT)were used to screen the valid variables in the wavelength.By evaluating the prediction ability of different models,the quantitative analysis models of chlorella biomass,protein and chlorophyll content were finally determined.The results showed that the model based on 1st combined with RT spectra had better predictive ability for chlorella nutrient content detection,and the root mean square errors of prediction(RMSEP)and coefficients of determination(R2)were 0.041 and 0.933 for biomass,0.012 and 0.973 for protein,and 0.517 and 0.962 for chlorophyll,respectively.This model showed practical application value,and could realize the rapid and accurate detection of chlorella biomass,protein and chlorophyll content at the same time.

Objective:To investigate the perioperative safety, short-term and long-term efficacy, and surgical strategy of laparoscopic partial gastrectomy for gastrointestinal stromal tumors at the esophagogastric junction.Methods:Seventy-eight patients with mesenchymal tumors in the esophagogastric junction were retrospectively enrolled from September 2018 to August 2023 in which the upper edge of the tumor is less than 2 cm from the Z-line or has invaded the Z-line <1/2 circumference. There were 31 males (39.7%) and 47 females (60.3%), with an average age of (57.2±11.8) years and an average body mass index of (24.5±3.5) kg/m 2. All cases were divided into the wedge resection (WR) group ( n=51) and the resection by opening all of the layers of the stomach wall (RASW) group ( n=27) according to the surgical methods. Surgical outcomes, complications, recover and postoperative gastroesophageal reflux of both groups were compared. The measurement data with a normal distribution were represented by mean±standard deviation ( ± s), and values were compared using the independent sample t-test. The measurement data with a skewed distribution were represented by median (interquartile range) [ M( Q1, Q3)], and values were compared using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were expressed as examples (percentages) [ n(%)], and the χ2 test was used to compare countable data. A non-parametric test was used to compare the grade data. Results:The WR group had shorter operation time [(97.1±32.6) min vs (149.9±54.9) min, t=-5.33, P<0.001], less intraoperative blood loss [15(10, 20) mL vs 20(10, 50) mL, z=-2.47, P=0.014], shorter postoperative exhaust time [2(1, 3) d vs 3(2, 3) d, z=-2.49, P=0.013], shorter postoperative oral intake time [2(2, 3) d vs 4(2, 5) d, t=-3.70, P<0.001], shorter postoperative semi-liquid diet time[5(4, 6) d vs 7(5, 8) d, z=-3.57, P<0.001], and shorter postoperative hospital stay [5(4, 6) d vs 7(6, 8) d, z=-4.16, P<0.001] than the RASW group, with statistically significant differences. There was no significant difference in short-term (≤30 days) complications between the two groups (2.0% vs 3.7%, z=-0.46, P=0.648). No cases of cardia stenosis occurred in either group. In the WR group, 3 patients developed gastroesophageal reflux at 6 months postoperatively, with 2 patients relieved after taking acid-suppressing drugs and 1 patient not completely relieved. In the RASW group, 1 patient developed gastroesophageal reflux at 6 months postoperatively and was not completely relieved after taking acid-suppressing drugs. No other patients had gastroesophageal reflux. No other patients have gastroesophageal reflux. Conclusions:WR and RASW are safe and feasible for mesenchymal tumors at the esophagogastric junction in which the upper edge of the tumor is less than 2 cm from the Z-line or has invaded the Z-line <1/2 circumference, and has achieved an excellent short-term effect. The choice of surgical approach can be determined based on varions factors such as the location of the tumor, the relationship of the position between the tumor and the cardia, and whether the tumor is exophytic growth.
