OBJECTIVE:
To explore the application value of artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted chromosomal karyotype analysis in the diagnosis of prenatal chromosomal mosaicism.
METHODS:
A retrospective analysis was conducted on 172 pregnant women who underwent amniocentesis at the Department of Medical Genetics and Prenatal Diagnosis, the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University between January 2019 and December 2024. All cases whose fetuses were diagnosed with chromosomal mosaicism via karyotype analysis and stratified into two groups based on the analytical software employed: the conventional analysis group (n = 70), which utilized Leica analysis software for karyotype image recognition and cell counting; and the AI-assisted analysis group (n = 102), which utilized AI-assisted software for the same procedures. The clinical performance of AI-assisted karyotype analysis in diagnosing chromosomal mosaicism was comprehensively evaluated by comparing the types of mosaic karyotypes, distribution of mosaic ratios, and verification outcomes of different detection modalities between the two groups. This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University (Ethics No.: 2024-406-01).
RESULTS:
No statistically significant difference was observed in baseline characteristics (maternal age, gestational week, and indications for prenatal diagnosis) between the two groups. Regarding the detection efficacy for numerical and structural mosaicisms, no significant difference was found in the detection of numerical mosaicism. However, the conventional analysis group exhibited a significantly higher detection rate of autosomal structural mosaicism compared to the AI-assisted group (11.43% vs. 0.98%, P < 0.05). Numerical mosaicism cases were further verified using copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq) and/or fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). The AI-assisted group demonstrated a significantly lower inconsistency rate (5.56% vs. 20.41%, P < 0.05) compared to the conventional group. For low-proportion (< 10%) chromosomal mosaicism, the AI-assisted group had a significantly lower detection rate (13.25% vs. 29.69%, P < 0.05). Subsequent validation of low-proportion mosaicism by CNV-seq and/or FISH showed a higher consistency rate in the AI-assisted group (81.82% vs. 54.55%), though the difference did not reach statistical significance (P = 0.360).
CONCLUSION
For the karyotyping analysis of prenatal chromosomal mosaicism, AI-assisted karyotype analysis shows high accuracy and consistency in identifying numerical chromosomal mosaicism, particularly in reducing the detection of low-proportion (< 10%) mosaicism while improving verification accuracy. AI-assisted analysis can significantly improve the detection accuracy of numerical mosaicism and mitigate the risk of misclassification for low-proportion (< 10%) mosaicism, thereby providing more precise clinical evidence for the prenatal diagnosis of chromosomal mosaicisms.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanisms by which Mahuang Lianqiao Chixiaodoutang (MLC) improves obesity-type polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) through the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt) signaling pathway. MethodsThirty-six female Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into a blank control group (Con) and an obesity-type PCOS model preparation group. The model was induced by gavage with letrozole (1 mg·kg-1) combined with a high-fat diet (HFD). After model establishment, the obesity-type PCOS model preparation group was further divided into the model group (Mod, normal saline), metformin group (Met, 0.3 g·kg-1), low-dose MLC group (MLC-L, 4.3 g·kg-1), medium-dose MLC group (MLC-M, 8.6 g·kg-1), and high-dose MLC group (MLC-H, 17.2 g·kg-1). Active components of MLC and targets of obesity-type PCOS were screened from databases, a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed, and gene ontology(GO)and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis was performed. The gut microbiota structure was analyzed based on 16S rRNA sequencing and correlated with network pharmacology pathways. Body weight and estrous cycle were dynamically monitored. Ovarian morphology was observed by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. Cell apoptosis was detected by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL). Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect levels of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), testosterone (T), and estradiol (E2). Western blot was used to detect the protein expression levels of phosphorylated PI3K/PI3K (p-PI3K/PI3K), phosphorylated Akt/Akt (p-Akt/Akt), B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2), and Bcl-2-associated X protein (Bax). ResultsNetwork pharmacology screening identified 124 active components of MLC and 408 overlapping targets between the herbal formula and the disease. Core targets such as Akt1 and Bcl-2 were revealed. As indicated by 16S rRNA sequencing, the abundances of Lachnospiraceae, Lachnoclostridium, and Dorea were increased in the MLC groups (P<0.05), while the abundance of Veillonella was decreased (P<0.05). KEGG correlation analysis integrating network pharmacology and gut microbiota data showed significant enrichment of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. Animal experiments showed that, compared with the Mod group, body weight decreased to normal levels in the Met, MLC-M, and MLC-H groups. The estrous cycle became regular. The number of corpora lutea increased and cystic follicles decreased. Serum levels of T, FSH, and LH/FSH were reduced (P<0.05, P<0.01), while the E2 level was increased (P<0.01). Ovarian cell apoptosis was reduced (P<0.01), and the protein expression levels of p-PI3K/PI3K, p-Akt/Akt, and Bcl-2 in ovarian tissue were significantly increased, whereas Bax protein expression was significantly decreased (P<0.05, P<0.01). ConclusionMLC can regulate gut microbiota structure, effectively improve ovarian pathology in rats with obesity-type PCOS, and inhibit ovarian granulosa cell apoptosis. The mechanism may be associated with upregulation of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.

In recent years, the incidence of myopia has been increasing alongside the growing global population, emerging as a significant public health challenge worldwide. Individuals with myopia exhibit an elongated axial length, which leads to various structural and functional ocular changes, resulting in the risk of related eye diseases and, in severe cases, blindness. Unfortunately, once myopia develops, it is irreversible. The only way to prevent or slow its progression is through appropriate treatment. The current focal point in myopia prevention and control is the peripheral myopic defocus theory. This paper summarizes the relevant research on defocus incorporated multiple segments(DIMS)lenses, following a systematic analysis of the literature. It analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of DIMS compared to other myopia control methods, and discusses the application prospects and future directions of defocus lenses represented by DIMS, aiming to provide reference and guidance for the control of myopia progression in children and adolescents.

Objective To explore the relationship between the degree of compression and shape grading of the cerebral cistern ambiens in hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage(HCH)patients after neural endoscopic intracranial hematoma evacuation(NEIHE)and prognosis.Methods 246 HCH patients who underwent NEIHE surgery from January 2020 to June 2023 were selected as the research subjects.According to the postoperative 6 month Glasgow outcome score(GOS),the patients were divided into good prognosis group(n=158)and poor prognosis group(n=88).Hierarchical regression model was used to analyze the relationship between clinical pathological features and the degree of compression and shape grading of the cerebral cistern ambiens.Multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the independent risk factors affecting the poor prognosis of patients with HCH after NEIHE,and a prediction model was constructed.Receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC curve)was drawn with poor prognosis as the outcome variable.Area under the curve(AUC),integrated discrimination improvement(IDI)and net reclassification improvement(NRI)of different prediction models were compared.Hosmer-Lemeshow was used to test the goodness of fit.Generalized additive model(GAM)was used to analyze the relationship between GOS and related factors.Results Compared with the good prognosis group,the poor prognosis group had more preoperative blood loss,lower preoperative Glasgow coma score(GCS),and higher proportion of patients with midline deviation,hypertension history ≥10 years,hemorrhage breaking into the brain ventricle,and operation time in the late stage,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Compared with the good prognosis group,the proportions of patients with ipsilateral and contralateral cerebral cistern ambiens compression of 3 to 4 points and the morphological classification of cerebral cistern ambiens of grade V in the poor prognosis group were higher,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The location of bleeding,midline deviation,and intracranial pressure all had an impact on the degree of compression and morphological grading of the cerebral cistern ambiens,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis(model 2:including the degree of compression and shape grading of the cerebral cistern ambiens)showed that midline deviation,history of hypertension ≥10 years,preoperative bleeding volume>37 mL,bleeding into the brain ventricles,preoperative GCS<7 points,late surgical timing,degree of compression of the cerebral cistern ambiens(3 to 4 points on the same side of hematoma,3 to 4 points on the opposite side of hematoma),and grade V morphology were all risk factors influencing the poor prognosis of patients with HCH after NEIHE(P<0.05).After incorporating the degree of compression and morphological grading of the cerebral cistern ambiens into model 1(excluding the degree of compression and shape grading of the cerebral cistern ambiens),the AUC increased to 0.812(95%CI:0.763~0.872),and both the IDI(0.081,95%CI:0.049~0.095)and NRI(0.611,95%CI:0.510~0.674)of the model improved,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).Compared with model 1,model 2 showed an increase in AUC(0.826,95%CI:0.771~0.863),IDI(0.085,95%CI:0.052~0.110),and NRI(0.628,95%CI:0.510~0.709),with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).The Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed that model 2(P=0.878)had a better fit for predicting poor prognosis than model 1(P=0.691).GAM analysis showed that the higher the degree of compression and morphological grading of the cerebral cistern ambiens,the lower the GOS,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that the combined application of degree of compression and morphological grading of the cerebral cistern ambiens had a high predictive value for poor prognosis,with AUC of 0.935(95%CI:0.890~0.971),sensitivity of 70.26%,and specificity of 93.84%.Conclusion The degree of compression and shape changes of the cerebral cistern ambiens in HCH patients after NEIHE are closely related to prognosis,and the combined application has certain predictive value for poor prognosis.The location of bleeding,midline deviation,intracranial pressure,and other factors significantly affect the compression degree and shape change of the cerebral cistern ambiens.
