Objective:To explore the diagnostic value of a clinical-radiomics model based on the T 1 mapping and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC)-based radiomics, and the clinical indicator for renal fibrosis (RF) caused by chronic kidney disease (CKD). Methods:This cross-sectional study prospectively and consecutively enrolled 122 patients with CKD at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from September 2021 to December 2023 who were randomly allocated to a training set ( n=85) or a validation set ( n=37) in an approximate 7∶3 ratio using simple random sampling. Patients underwent T 1 mapping and diffusion-weighted imaging scans. Renal biopsy was performed within 3 days after the MRI scans. Patients were categorized into three groups based on the degree of RF: no RF ( n=25), mild RF ( n=55), and moderate to severe RF ( n=42). To differentiate the presence of RF (no RF vs. any RF) and the severity of RF (mild RF vs. moderate to severe RF), univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used to optimize the independent clinical predictor, which constituted the clinical model. Radiomics features were extracted from regions of interest delineated within the renal parenchyma of the right kidney on T 1 mapping and ADC maps. Features were selected using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression to build the radiomics model. A clinical-radiomics model was subsequently constructed by integrating the independent clinical predictors with the selected radiomics features. Model diagnostic performance was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Calibration curve was plotted to assess model calibration, and decision curve analysis was performed to evaluate clinical net benefit. Results:Univariate logistic regression analysis revealed that estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), serum creatinine, and blood urea nitrogen exhibited statistically significant differences ( P0.05) in distinguishing both the presence and severity of RF. Multivariate analysis identified eGFR as an independent clinical predictor for both the presence of RF ( OR=0.939, 95% CI 0.898-0.982, P=0.006) and RF severity ( OR=0.956, 95% CI 0.917-0.997, P=0.037). From the MRI images, 7 radiomics features were selected to build the radiomics model for distinguishing the presence of RF, and 8 features were selected for the model assessing RF severity. These radiomics models were then combined with eGFR to construct the clinical-radiomics models. The clinical-radiomics models demonstrated the highest diagnostic performance, with an AUC of 0.935 (95% CI 0.859-0.977) for RF presence and 0.967 (95% CI 0.891-0.995) for RF severity in the training set, and 0.914 (95% CI 0.774-0.981) and 0.908 (95% CI 0.748-0.981) in the validation set. Calibration curves and decision curve analysis confirmed that the clinical-radiomics models exhibited excellent calibration and provided the highest clinical net benefit for assessing RF in CKD patients. Conclusion:The clinical-radiomics model integrating T 1 mapping and ADC-based radiomics and eGFR can effectively improve the diagnostic performance for RF in CKD patients.

Objective:Based on the best evidence, formulate the review indicators to promote the initiation and establishment of maternal lactation and carry out clinical review, analyze the barriers and promoting factors of the clinical application of evidence, and formulate countermeasures.Methods:Evidence-based nursing research was used to identify clinical problems, build evidence-based group, systematically search, evaluate and synthesize evidence. On September 1,2023 to December 31 in Affiliated Hospital of Jiangsu University document and delivery of maternal investigation, in Ottawa research application mode as a guide, based on the evidence to review indicators and review method, clear clinical status and evidence gap, combined with the stakeholders interview, using content analysis to analyze barriers and promoting factors, to formulate action countermeasures.Results:In this study, 140 pregnant women were finally included for clinical review, aged from 22 to 42 (30.13 ± 3.69) years. A total of 23 pieces of best evidence were incorporated, leading to the establishment of 29 review indicators. Among these, 20 review indicators showed compliance rates below 60%. The main obstacles based on the results of review and interviews with stakeholders: the evidence content covered perinatal stages but lacked specificity and practical applicability; nurses had insufficient knowledge and faced increased workloads; pregnant/postpartum women lacked essential knowledge and skills, with delayed resolution of lactation issues; the practice environment lacked evidence-based implementation protocols, specialized assessment tools, and professional lactation consultant teams, etc. Promoting factors: the project team had rich experience in evidence transformation; the reform aligned with national policies, high engagement from departmental leaders, and standardized management systems for evidence-based projects in the nursing department; strong motivation among pregnant/postpartum women; the hospital was an infant-friendly hospital with talents needed for evidence transformation.Conclusions:There is a big gap between the clinical status and the evidence of promoting the initiation and establishment of lactation, so nursing staff should make full use of the promoting factors and formulate countermeasures according to the obstacle factors, so as to provide reference for promoting the initiation of lactation and the establishment of relevant evidence to clinical transformation.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of fibrosis-4 index (FIB-4), NAFLD fibrosis score (NFS), aspartate aminotransferase to platelet count ratio (APRI), liver stiffness value (LSM), and Agile 3+ score and their combined model in predicting advanced-stage liver fibrosis in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) combined with metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD).Methods:A multicenter retrospective cohort study was conducted on the BMOVE population.Nine hundred twenty CHB cases combined with MAFLD who underwent liver biopsy at seven medical centers in China from April 2006 to December 2023 were included. The patients were divided into advanced-stage liver fibrosis (159 cases) and non-advanced-stage liver fibrosis (761 cases) according to the Scheuer's scoring system.The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC), decision curve, and calibration curve analysis were used to evaluate the efficacy of the firbrosis-4 index (FIB-4) score, NFS score, APRI index, LSM, and Agile 3+ score and their combined model in predicting advanced-stage fibrosis. The liver fibrosis grade of all patients was diagnosed by liver biopsy. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) of each scoring model and combined model, as well as the proportion of correctly classified patients, were calculated based on different cutoff values.Results:AUROC analysis showed that Agile 3+ (0.814, 95% CI: 0.787-0.838) and LSM (0.805, 95% CI: 0.778-0.829) had similar accuracy and were superior to FIB-4 (0.721, 95% CI: 0.691-0.749), NFS (0.687, 95% CI: 0.656-0.716) and APRI ( 0.689, 95% CI: 0.658-0.718); however, HBV DNA level and HBV e antigen status had no effect on this outcome. Decision curve analysis showed that interventions based on LSM and Agile 3+ had provided higher net benefits compared with serological scores. Calibration curves showed that Agile 3+ had better predicitive accuracy than all other models. Agile 3+ had the highest PPV (0.54), minimal uncertainty interval (11.6%), and the highest proportion of correctly classified patients (76%); followed by LSM (PPV: 0.43, uncertainty interval: 15.5%, correct classification rate: 66%), and FIB-4 (PPV: 0.42, uncertainty interval: 26.1%, correct classification rate: 62.6%) in terms of identifying advanced-stage liver fibrosis. Combined model analysis demonstrated that FIB-4 combined with Agile 3+ had improved the correct classification rate and reduced the proportion of missed patients compared with FIB-4 combined with LSM. Conclusion:The Agile 3+ score is superior than LSM, FIB-4, NFS, and APRI index at identifying advanced-stage fibrosis in patients with CHB combined with MAFLD. This study supports the use of FIB-4 index combined with Agile 3+ for risk stratification in patients with CHB combined with MAFLD.

During the progression of ischemic stroke,cells experience oxidative stress and intracellular energy depletion,triggering the dynamic assembly and disassembly of stress granules.Stress granules may have a dual role in ischemic stroke.In the ultra-early reperfusion period(6-36 h),under acute stress,the stress granules may inhibit neuronal apoptosis and exert neuroprotective effects through reversible liquid-liquid phase separation.In contrast,in the acute reperfusion period(36 h to 2 weeks),under prolonged stress,pathological stress granules may accumulate through liquid-solid phase transition,leading to neuronal dysfunction and inducing ischemic stroke sequelae such as motor and cognitive impairments.This article reviewed the mechanisms of stress granules dynamic phase transitions during ischemic stroke and their effects on neurons,aiming to provide references and insights for future stress granule-targeted interventions for ischemic stroke and its sequelae.

OBJECTIVE:
Recombination events are common and serve as the primary driving force of diverse human adenovirus (HAdV), particularly in children with acute respiratory tract infections (ARIs). Therefore, continual monitoring of these events is essential for effective viral surveillance and control.
METHODS:
Respiratory specimens were collected from children with ARIs between January 2022 and December 2023. The penton base, hexon, and fiber genes were amplified from HAdV-positive specimens and sequenced to determine the virus type. In cases with inconsistent typing results, genes were cloned into the pGEM-T vector to detect recombination events. Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) was performed to characterize the recombinant HAdV genomes.
RESULTS:
Among 6,771 specimens, 277 (4.09%, 277/6,771) were positvie for HAdV, of which 157 (56.68%, 157/277) were successfully typed, with HAdV-B3 being the dominant type (91.08%, 143/157), and 14 (5.05%, 14/277) exhibited inconsistent typing results, six of which belonged to species B. The penton base genes of these six specimens were classified as HAdV-B7, whereas their hexon and fiber genes were classified as HAdV-B3, resulting in a recombinant genotype designated P7H3F3, which closely resembled HAdV-B114. Additionally, a partial gene encoding L1 52/55 kD was identified, which originated from HAdV-B16.
CONCLUSION
A novel recombinant, P7H3F3, was identified, containing sequences derived from HAdV-B3 and HAdV-B7, which is similar to HAdV-B114, along with additional sequences from HAdV-B16.
