Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is widely used in dentistry, surgery, radiotherapy and other medical fields. However, repeated CBCT scans expose patients to additional radiation doses, increasing the risk of secondary malignant tumors. Low-dose CBCT image reconstruction technology, which employs advanced algorithms to reduce radiation dose while enhancing image quality, has emerged as a focal point of recent research. This review systematically examined deep learning-based methods for low-dose CBCT reconstruction. It compared different network architectures in terms of noise reduction, artifact removal, detail preservation, and computational efficiency, covering three approaches: image-domain, projection-domain, and dual-domain techniques. The review also explored how emerging technologies like multimodal fusion and self-supervised learning could enhance these methods. By summarizing the strengths and weaknesses of current approaches, this work provides insights to optimize low-dose CBCT algorithms and support their clinical adoption.

Traditional development of small protein scaffolds has relied on display technologies and mutation-based engineering, which limit sequence and functional diversity, thereby constraining their therapeutic and application potential. Protein design tools have significantly advanced the creation of novel protein sequences, structures, and functions. However, further improvements in design strategies are still needed to more efficiently optimize the functional performance of protein-based drugs and enhance their druggability. Here, we extended an evolution-based design protocol to create a novel minibinder, BindHer, against the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). It not only exhibits super stability and binding selectivity but also demonstrates remarkable properties in tissue specificity. Radiolabeling experiments with 99mTc, 68Ga, and 18F revealed that BindHer efficiently targets tumors in HER2-positive breast cancer mouse models, with minimal nonspecific liver absorption, outperforming scaffolds designed through traditional engineering. These findings highlight a new rational approach to automated protein design, offering significant potential for large-scale applications in therapeutic mini-protein development.

Objective:To analyze the expression of heat shock protein 90α (HSP90α) in pancreatic cancer tissues and its potential diagnostic value for pancreatic cancer.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on surgical specimens and clinical data from 99 patients with pancreatic cancer who were treated at Qingdao Municipal Hospital from January 2018 to May 2023, including 58 males and 41 females, with the age of (63.5±23.5) years. Among them, 44 patients (44.4%) were used for pathological examination and prognostic analysis, while 55 patients (55.6%) were tested for plasma HSP90α levels to evaluate its diagnostic efficacy for pancreatic cancer. Blood samples from 119 healthy individuals undergoing routine physical examinations at the same hospital during the same period were collected, including 74 males and 45 females, with the age of (50.5±25.5) years, and plasma HSP90α levels were measured. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was performed to detect the expression of HSP90α in cancerous and adjacent non-cancerous tissues. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to assess the diagnostic performance of HSP90α, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9), and carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) for pancreatic cancer. Survival analysis was conducted using the Kaplan-Meier method, and the log-rank test was used to compare survival rates. The correlation between HSP90α positive expression in cancer tissues and mutant p53 positive expression was analyzed using Spearman correlation analysis.Results:Immunohistochemical analysis showed that the positive expression rate of HSP90α in pancreatic cancer tissues was 81.8%(36/44), higher than that in adjacent non-cancerous tissues 13.6%(6/44)( χ2=19.82, P<0.01). HSP90α positive expression in pancreatic cancer tissues was positively correlated with mutant p53 positive expression (correlation coefficient was 0.57, P<0.001). The median plasma HSP90α level in the pancreatic cancer group ( n=55) was 83.30 (48.30, 212.00) μg/L, which was significantly higher than that in the normal control group ( n=119), with a median of 37.00 (29.20, 43.50) μg/L, showing a statistically significant difference ( Z=-7.34, P<0.001). The area under the ROC curve (AUC) for plasma HSP90α in diagnosing pancreatic cancer was 0.85 (95% CI: 0.77-0.92), with an optimal cutoff value of 53.52 μg/L, yielding a sensitivity of 69.1% (38/55) and a specificity of 98.3% (117/119). The AUC for HSP90α in diagnosing pancreatic cancer was higher than that of CEA, CA19-9, and CA125. In the immunohistochemical analysis of cancer tissues, the one-year cumulative survival rate of the HSP90α-negative group ( n=8) was 87.5%, which was significantly higher than that of the HSP90α-positive group ( n=36), which was 18.8%( χ2=12.74, P<0.001). Conclusions:HSP90α is highly expressed in pancreatic cancer tissues, which is positively correlated with mutant p53 positive expression. Patients with positive HSP90α expression have a poorer prognosis. HSP90α demonstrates good diagnostic performance for pancreatic cancer and holds potential for clinical application.

Objective:To investigate human factors underlying radiotherapy planning safety incidents and quantitatively explore their interrelationships.Methods:A total of 1 619 safety incidents recorded in the automated plan checking system developed by West China Hospital of Sichuan University were utilized. Human factors were identified and statistically analyzed using the Human Factors Analysis and Classification System (HFACS). A Bayesian network model was developed and combined with sensitivity analysis for quantitative assessment.Results:Key contributing factors included organizational processes (12.89%), inadequate supervision (11.85%), and personnel factors (13.50%). Utilizing the established HFACS Bayesian network hybrid model in conjunction with sensitivity analysis, it has been found that the most significant influences on skill‐based errors and decision errors were condition of operators and environmental factors, with corresponding indices of 0.96 and 0.76. Additionally, personnel factors had the greatest impact on routine, with an index of 3.51.Conclusions:Key contributing factors span all HFACS levels, with organizational processes, supervision, personnel, and condition of operators each playing a significant role. Upstream factors — such as organizational climate, environment factors, and personnel factors — strongly influence downstream risks. These offer actionable insights for developing targeted safety protocols.
