Objective To evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of artificial vision,radiomics(RAD)and deep learning(DL)in distinguishing atypical usual interstitial pneumonia(UIP)from nonspecific interstitial pneumonia(NSIP).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 300 patients diagnosed with interstitial pneumonia(IP).A total of 56 cases of atypical UIP and 57 cases of NSIP were included.All patients underwent CT examination before biopsy,and were randomly divided into training and test groups.DL and RAD artificial intelligence models were developed and trained.The consistency of artificial vision assessment was performed via Kappa test and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis was performed via logistic regression.Then,the differences in the area under the curve(AUC)of different models were compared via DeLong analysis.The diagnostic efficiency of the model was evaluated via AUC and accuracy(ACC)as the main indicators and compared with the artificial vision evaluation.Results Two radiologists showed significant consistency in the CT diagnosis and interpretation of atypical UIP and NSIP(Kappa=0.852,P<0.01).On high-resolution computed tomography(HRCT),the atypical UIP patients mainly showed basal bronchiectasis,honeycombing,and reticular opacities,while,the NSIP patients showed basal reticular opacities,ground glass opacity(GGO)and subpleural avoidance sign.The probability of GGO exceeding the reticular opacities of the NSIP patients was significantly higher than that of the atypical UIP patients(P<0.05).The DL model showed significantly higher diagnostic efficiency than RAD and artificial vision in the differential diagnosis of atypical UIP and NSIP(AUC:0.94 vs 0.85 vs 0.65,P<0.01).Conclusion CT and RAD have a certain significant diagnostic value for atypical UIP and NSIP.Atypical UIP and NSIP can be more accurately differentiated and diagnosed based on the DL model,thereby,the management of IP is further strengthened in clinical practice.

Objective:To investigate the influence of curative-intent resection with textbook outcomes of liver surgery (TOLS) on long-term prognosis of gallbladder carcinoma (GBC).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 824 patients with GBC in the national multicenter database of Biliary Surgery Group of Elite Group of Chinese Journal of Digestive Surgery, who were admitted to 15 medical centers from January 2014 to January 2021, were collected. There were 285 males and 539 females, aged (62±11)years. According to the evalua-tion criteria of TOLS, patients were divided into those who achieved TOLS and those who did not achieve TOLS. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and com-parison between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Comparison of ordinal data were conduc-ted using the Mann-Whitney U test. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rate and draw survival curve, and the Log-rank test was used for survival analysis. The COX stepwise regression model with backward Wald method was used for univariate and multivariate analyses. Results:(1) Achievement of TOLS. Of the 824 patients undergoing curative-intent resection for GBC, there were 510 cases achieving TOLS and 314 cases not achieving TOLS. (2) Follow-up. Of the 824 patients undergoing curative-intent resection for GBC, after excluding 112 deaths within 90 days after discharge, 712 cases were included for the survival analysis. The median follow-up time, median overall survival time and 5-year overall survival rate of the 510 patients achieving TOLS were 22.1(11.4,30.1)months, 47.6(30.6,64.6)months and 47.5%. The median follow-up time, median overall survival time and 5-year overall survival rate of the 202 patients not achieving TOLS were 14.0(6.8,25.5)months, 24.3(20.0,28.6)months and 21.0%. There was a significant difference in overall survival between patients achieving TOLS and patients not achieving TOLS ( χ2=58.491, P<0.05). (3) Analysis of factors influencing prognosis of patients. Results of multivariate analysis showed that TOLS, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), CA19-9, poorly differentiation of tumor, T2 stage of eighth edition of American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging, T3 and T4 stage of eighth edition of AJCC staging, N1 stage of the eighth edition of AJCC staging, N2 stage of the eighth edition of AJCC staging, adjuvant therapy were independent factors influencing overall survival time of patients undergoing curative-intent resection for GBC ( hazard ratio=0.452, 1.479, 1.373, 1.612, 1.455, 1.481, 1.835, 1.978, 0.538, 95% c onfidence interval as 0.352-0.581, 1.141-1.964, 1.052-1.791, 1.259-2.063, 1.102-1.920, 1.022-2.147, 1.380-2.441, 1.342-2.915, 0.382-0.758, P<0.05). Conclusion:Patients under-going curative-intent resection for GBC with TOLS can achieve better long-term prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the influencing of preoperative total bilirubin (TBil) on perioperative complications of hepatolithiasis receiving liver resection.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinical data of 300 patients with hepatolithiasis who were admitted to 2 medical centers from January 2010 to January 2022 were collected. There were 115 males and 185 females, aged (54±13)years. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and the independent sample t test was used for comparison between groups. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison between groups. Count data were expressed as absolute numbers, and the chi-square test was used for comparison between groups. Variables with P<0.10 in the univariate analysis were included into the multivariate analysis. Univariate analysis was conducted using the Logistic regression model,and multivariate analysis was conducted using the Logistic stepwise regression model with backward Wald method. Continuous variables were converted into categorical variables based on commonly reported cutoff values when conducting Logistic regression analysis. Results:(1) Comparison of clinical data of patients with different preoperative TBil. Of 300 patients with hepatolithiasis, there were 252 cases with low level of preoperative TBil as 14.4(11.1,19.7)μmol/L, and there were 48 cases with high level of preoperative TBil as 44.0(31.3,59.8)μmol/L. Of the pati-ents with low level of preoperative TBil, neutrophils percentage was 62%±10%, cases with intra-operative blood transfusion was 29, and cases undergoing anatomical liver resection was 166. Of the patients with high level of preoperative TBil, neutrophils percentage was 70%±11%, cases with intraoperative blood transfusion was 22, and cases undergoing anatomical liver resection was 15. There were significant differences in cases classified as>grade 2 of ASA classification, neutrophils percentage, cases with intraoperative blood transfusion and cases undergoing anatomical liver resection between patients with low and high level of preoperative TBil ( t=5.182, χ2=33.669, 18.775, P<0.05). (2) Comparison of perioperative complications of patients with different preoperative TBil. Of the 252 patients with low level of TBil, there were 151 cases with complications including 35 cases of serious complications, there was 1 case with postoperative liver failure, the duration of postoperative hospital stay was 13.0(10.0,16.0)days. Of the 48 patients with high level of TBil, there were 32 cases with complications including 17 cases of serious complications, there were 6 cases with postoperative liver failure, the duration of postoperative hospital stay was 14.0(10.0,18.8)days. There were significant differences in cases with serious complications and cases with postoperative liver failure between patients with low and high level of preoperative TBil ( χ2=13.041, 20.879, P<0.05). (3) Analysis of factors influencing postoperative serious complications in patients undergoing liver resection. Results of multivariate analysis showed that age, body mass index (BMI), preoperative TBil and volume of intraoperative blood loss were independent factors influencing postoperative serious complications in patients undergoing liver resection for hepatolithiasis ( odds ratio=3.852, 2.358, 2.935, 5.135, 95% confidence interval as 1.478?9.979, 1.110?5.009, 1.398?6.158, 2.088?12.626, P<0.05). Conclusions:Patients with high level of preoperative TBil have a significantly increased risk of postoperative serious complications and liver failure who receive liver resection for hepatolithiasis. Age, preoperative BMI, TBil and volume of intraoperative blood loss are independent factors influencing postoperative serious complications in patients undergoing liver resection for hepatolithiasis.

【Objective】 To investigate the efficacy of low intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) in the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED). 【Methods】 A total of 121 ED patients treated during June 2020 and June 2022 were selected as the research objects. According to the International Erectile Index Score (IIEF-EF), the patients were divided into three subgroups:mild (17-25 points), moderate (11-16 points), and severe (0-10 points). The total effective rate, erectile hardness scale (EHS), sex life log questions (SEP), general assessment questionnaire (GAQ), peak systolic velocity (PSV), end diastolic velocity (EDV), and adverse reactions of the three groups before treatment, 4 weeks and 12 weeks after treatment were analyzed. 【Results】 A total of 119 patients completed the follow-up. There were significant increases in IIEF-EF and EHS at week 4 and 12 (P<0.05), and the total effective rate was 69.75% and 76.47%, respectively. The total effective rate was significantly higher in the mild and moderate groups than in the severe group at week 4 and 12 (P<0.05). The patients who answered "yes" to SEP2 and SEP3 accounted for 91.60% and 71.43%, respectively at week 4, and 92.44% and 78.15% at week 12, both significantly higher than the rates before treatment (52.10% and 27.73%, P<0.05). The proportion of patients who answered "yes" to GAQl and GAQ2 at week 4 were 84.87% and 71.43%, respectively, and were 82.35% and 70.59% respectively at week 12, with no significant difference. The PSV level significantly increased at week 12 compared to that before treatment [(48.85±14.11) cm/s vs. (41.42±14.90) cm/s] (P<0.05), while the EDV level significantly decreased [(-0.57±7.01) cm/s vs. (2.25± 5.68)cm/s] (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 LIPUS can improve erectile function in ED patients without obvious adverse reactions.

The biological samples of oral genetic diseases and rare diseases are extremely precious. Collecting and preserving these biological samples are helpful to elucidate the mechanisms and improve the level of diagnose and treatment of oral genetic diseases and rare diseases. The standardized construction of biobanks for oral genetic diseases and rare diseases is important for achieving these goals. At present, there is very little information on the construction of these biobanks, and the standards or suggestions for the classification and coding of biological samples from oral and maxillofacial sources, and this is not conducive to the standardization and information construction of biobanks for special oral diseases. This consensus summarizes the background, necessity, principles, and key points of constructing the biobank for oral genetic diseases and rare diseases. On the base of the group standard "Classification and Coding for Human Biomaterial" (GB/T 39768-2021) issued by the National Technical Committee for Standardization of Biological Samples, we suggest 76 new coding numbers for different of biological samples from oral and maxillofacial sources. We hope the consensus may promote the standardization, and smartization on the biobank construction as well as the overall research level of oral genetic diseases and rare diseases in China.

Objective:To evaluate the impact of metastatic site on the prognosis in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC), and it′s value for modifying the International Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Database Consortium (IMDC) criteria.Methods:The data of 218 patients pathologically diagnosed with mRCC were analyzed retrospectively in West China Hospital from Jan. 2009 to Dec. 2019. Among all patients, 71.6%(156/218) were male, and 89.0% (194/218) underwent nephrectomy. Most of the patients were pathologically diagnosed with renal clear cell carcinoma (176 patients, 80.7%). Lung (137/218, 62.8%) was the most observed metastatic site, following by bone (47/218, 26.1%), lymph node (37/218, 17.0%) and liver (23/218, 10.6%). All patients were classified into favorable (26 patients, 11.9%), intermediate (126 patients, 57.8%) or poor (37 patients, 17.0%) risk group according to IMDC criteria. Endpoints of this study were progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and tumor response. The impact of metastatic sites on patients’ prognosis was analyzed, and those that had significant relationship with prognosis were then added into IMDC criteria and a modifying IMDC model was established. Predictive value of this model was further evaluated by calculating concordance index (C-index).Results:In the whole cohort, median PFS and OS were 13.0 and 33.0 months. Survival analysis suggested that patients with bone ( P=0.004), brain ( P=0.042) and liver ( P=0.046) had significantly shorter OS. Thus, patients were divided into two groups: patients with bone/brain/liver metastasis (82 patients, 37.6%) and patients with other metastatic sites (136 patients, 62.4%). Compared with patients with other metastatic sites, those who with bone/brain/liver metastasis had inferior tumor response by TKIs treatment (disease control rate: 51.2% vs. 73.5%, P=0.004). Multivariate analysis suggested that bone/brain/liver metastasis had negative impact on OS (25.0 vs. 47.0 mo, P=0.039). Furthermore, bone/brain/liver metastasis also showed significant relationship with shorter OS in IMDC low (30.0 vs. 62.0 months, P=0.036), intermediate (31.0 vs. 48.0 months, P=0.048) or high (7.0 vs. 18.0 months, P=0.037) risk group, indicating that metastatic site had predictive value for prognosis of mRCC patients. Based on that, bone/brain/liver metastasis were added into the IMDC criteria, and weighting each parameter was weighted according to its coefficient to patients’ OS. Finally, a modified IMDC scoring system were established. C-index of this modified model was 0.669 (0.599 for current IMDC criteria). Conclusions:Bone/brain/liver metastasis in mRCC patients indicated a shorter OS duration. When adding bone/brain/liver metastasis as a predictive parameter for prognosis of mRCC patients into IMDC criteria, the modified IMDC criteria could offer more accurate prediction for patients’ survival.

Objective:
To establish a mouse model of osteoarthritis (OA) and study the bone microarchitecture and bone metabolism of tibial subchondral bone in early stage of OA.
Methods:
The mouse model of post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) with anterior cruciate ligament (ACLT) was established by using c57 mice. The Sham operation group served as the control group. All mice were fed with conventional diet. All mice were sacrificed after 4 weeks. The degeneration of knee joint was observed by HE staining and Safranin O-Fast Green staining. The number of osteoclasts was counted by TRAP staining. Micro CT was used to analyze the quantitative parameters of the microstructure of tibia subchondral bone in mice. Serum levels of bone resorption biomarker CTX I and cartilage degeneration marker CTX II were determined.
Results:
After ACLT 4 weeks, the average score of OARSI in ACLT group was 3.2, which was higher than that in Sham group, and the joint degeneration occurred in mice, presenting the pathological characteristics of early OA. Compared with the sham operation phase, the total subchondral bone volume (TV) of ACLT group was 4.72 mm3, increased by 13.6%; the bone trabecular resolution (Tb.Sp) was 0.130 and 0.154 mm, respectively, and the ACLT group also increased by 18.8%; the bone volume/tissue volume (BV/TV) was 0.470 and 0.294, respectively, and the ACLT group decreased by 48.9%; the bone trabecular thickness (Tb.Th) was 0.162 and 0.083 mm groups, ACLT decreased by 37.5%. Trap staining showed that the number of osteoclasts per unit volume in ACLT group was 72, which was significantly higher than that in sham operation group. The CTX I of mice in the sham operated ACLT group and sham operated group were 20.9 ng/ml and 18.29 ng/ml, with an increase of 48.9% in the ACLT group; the CTX II of mice in the ACLT group and sham operated group were 35.5 ng/ml and 28.6 ng/ml, with an increase of 24.1% in the ACLT group.
Conclusion
ACLT Mouse model can successfully construct early OA, which confirms the early loss of osteochondral bone and the pathological changes of osteoclast activation in OA, and provides a new specific target for the treatment of OA.
