In view of the characteristics of H5N6 subtype avian influenza virus(AIV)that it has both high pathogenicity and the risk of cross-species transmission,posing a serious threat to the poultry farming industry and public health security,in order to effectively prevent and control the spread of H5N6 avian influenza,a rapid,sensitive and specific detection technolo-gy was established in this study.The specific monoclonal antibodies against the neuraminidase N6 protein of avian influenza A virus subtype H5N6 were obtained through hybridoma and monoclonal antibody technology.These antibodies were coupled and labeled with carboxyl-functionalized fluorescent quantum dots,along with previously prepared specific antibodies against the hemagglutinin H5 protein.A rapid fluorescence immunochromatographic detection method for the H5N6 subtype of avian influ-enza virus was established according to the principle of double-antibody sandwich immunochromatography.This method a-chieved a detection sensitivity of 1 ng/mL for recombinant hemagglutinin H5 subtype protein and 0.1 ng/mL for recombinant neuraminidase N6 subtype protein.Moreover,the method exhibited no cross-reactivity with other influenza subtypes or patho-gens,such as Newcastle disease(ND),infectious bronchitis(IB),and infectious laryngotracheitis(ILT),thus demonstrating good specificity.The method effectively identified the highly pathogenic avian influenza virus H5 subtype and directly distin-guished the H5N6 subtype with good accuracy.The fluorescent quantum dot immunochromatographic typing detection method established herein met the sensitivity,specificity,and accuracy requirements for H5N6 subtype detection,and can be further used for rapid detection of the H5 and H5N6 subtypes of avian influenza virus.

Aim To investigate the inhibitory effect of the protein kinase D(PKD)-specific inhibitor CRT0066101 on hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)and its underlying molecular mechanisms,providing new theoretical insights and therapeutic strategies for targe-ted HCC treatment.Methods HCC cell lines were treated with varying concentrations of CRT0066101.The inhibitory effects on cell proliferation were assessed using the CCK-8 assay,colony formation assay,and EdU staining.The impact on cell migration and inva-sion was evaluated through wound-healing assays and Transwell migration and invasion assays.was employed toThe effects of CRT0066101 on the phosphorylation levels of PKD and key proteins in the downstream PI3K/AKT signaling pathway were analyzed using Western blot.Additionally,the drug's regulatory effects on apoptosis and autophagy in HCC cells were examined using Western blot,flow cytometry,and the mRFP-GFP-LC3 dual-fluorescence reporter system.Results CRT0066101 significantly inhibited the pro-liferation,migration and invasion of HCC cells.West-ern blotting results demonstrated that CRT0066101 dose-dependently suppressed the phosphorylation of PKD family proteins and downregulated the activation of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.Furthermore,CRT0066101 treatment upregulated the expression of the pro-apoptotic protein Bax while downregulating the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2.It also markedly increased the expression levels of autophagy marker proteins Bec-lin-1 and LC3B-Ⅱ,suggesting that the drug simulta-neously induced apoptosis and autophagy in HCC cells.Conclusions CRT0066101 specifically inhibits PKD activity,blocks the PI3K/AKT signaling path-way,suppresses HCC cell proliferation and metastasis,and induces apoptosis and autophagy.These findings indicate that CRT0066101 is a promising small-mole-cule inhibitor for targeted HCC therapy with potential clinical applications.

Objective To investigate the effect and safety of esketamine combined with general anesthesia and ultrasound-guided cervical plexus block in axillary endoscopic thyroidectomy.Methods The subjects of this study,112 female patients who underwent axillary endoscopic thyroidectomy in our hospital from January 2022 to October 2024,were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group,each with 56 cases.All patients were administered with ultrasound-guided cervical plexus block followed by general anesthesia.The observation group was injected with 0.1 mg/kg of esketamine prior to anesthesia induction and continuously pumped with esketamine at a rate of 0.1 mg/(kg·h)during the operation until sutures were completed,while the control group was administered with an equal volume of normal saline following the same procedure.The vital sign indicators[mean arterial pressure(MAP),heart rate(HR)and percutaneous arterial oxygen saturation(SpO2)]immediately after establishing electrocardiogram monitoring(T0),immediately before tracheal intubation(T1),immediately after tracheal intubation(T2),immediately after skin incision(T3)and immediately after the operation(T4)were compared between the two groups.Surgical related indicators such as propofol dosage,remifentanil dosage,and extubation time were also compared between them.Pain visual analogue scale(VAS)scores were performed on patients from the two groups at 1,6,12,and 24 h postoperatively.The 40-item quality of recovery score(QoR-40)was used before the surgeries and 1 d after surgeries to assess the patients.Adverse reactions were also compared.Results The difference was significant in terms of MAP,HR time effect in the two groups(F=24.63,F=20.11,P<0.05)and inter-group MAP,HR values(F=13.54,F=11.49,P<0.05).There were statistically significant differences in the interaction effects of MAP and HR between the two groups(F=4.10,F=3.46,P<0.05).The difference was not statistically significant in time,inter group,and interaction effects of SpO2(P>0.05).The dosage of propofol,remifentanil,and postoperative 1 d drainage in the observation group were less than those in the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The differences were not statistically signiciant in extubation time and awakening time between the two groups(P>0.05).The VAS scores at 1,6,12,and 24 h after operation in the observation groups were lower than those in the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Physical comfort,pain dimension ratings,and total score of the QoR-40 scale:1)those 1 d after operation were lower than those before operation in both groups(P<0.05);2)1 d after operation:those in the control group were lower than those in the observation group(P<0.05).The control group witnessed a remarkable decrease in QoR-40 emotional state rating 1 d after operation than it did before operation(P<0.05),while no significant change was seen by the observation group in this regard(P>0.05).The incidence of coughing after extubation in the observation group was lower than that in the control group(14.29%and 37.50%),the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The differences were not statistically signiciant in the incidence of other adverse reactions such as nausea,vomiting,dizziness,headache,respiratory depression,awakening restlessness and awakening delirium between the two groups(P>0.05).The total incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group(25.00%and 66.07%,P<0.05).Conclusion The application of esketamine combined with general anesthesia and ultrasound-guided cervical plexus block in axillary endoscopic thyroidectomy can significantly stabilize hemodynamics in patients,reduce postoperative pain,and promote postoperative recovery.It is worthy clinical application.

Objective:To apply statistical process control (SPC) techniques to the quality assurance of non-normal radiotherapy plans through Johnson transformation, establishing patient-specific tolerance and action limits based on treatment sites and dose/distance assessment criteria, thereby enhancing the intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) verification accuracy and dose delivery precision.Methods:In this study, 951 gamma analysis data of patient-specific quality assurance (PSQA) executed on the Halcyon accelerator platform were selected and categorized into six groups based on treatment sites, including brain (102 cases), head and neck (100 cases), breast (229 cases), lung (154 cases), esophagus (223 cases), and pelvic (143 cases) groups. The six groups of data were statistically analyzed through Anderson-Darling normality tests ( α = 0.05) using Minitab 21 software. Non-normal data were transformed into normal data through Johnson transformation and then were used to establish treatment site-specific tolerance and action limits, which were compared with the Shewhart control charts based on normal distributions. Results:The PSQA result of the six groups all exhibited non-normal distributions ( P < 0.05). Through Johnson transformation, the tolerance and action limits for the head and neck, breast, lung, esophagus, and pelvic areas under the 3%/2 mm criterion ranged from 95.13% to 96.16% and 94.19% to 95.91%, respectively. In contrast, the tolerance and action limits ranged from 91.15% to 94.86% and 89.94% to 94.78% under the 2%/2 mm criterion. Directly applying Shewhart control charts without normality assumptions yielded higher tolerance limits compared to the application of Johnson transformation, increasing the false positive rate in the non-normal PSQA process. Conclusions:Applying the SPC techniques directly to a non-normal process can lead to an increased false alarm rate and wrong process interpretation. The SPC techniques combined with Johnson transformation enable more effective monitoring of a non-normal PSQA process, facilitating timely identification of potential factors that may lead to an out-of-control process based on the treatment site-specific limits.

Objective:To explore the feasibility of selecting appropriate respiratory motion management strategies for patients undergoing stereotactic radiotherapy for liver cancer using chi-square feature testing and machine learning techniques.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 95 liver cancer patients who underwent respiratory motion evaluation at Xiangya Hospital of Central South University between March 2022 and August 2024. Chi-square testing was used to screen features related to respiratory motion evaluation in liver cancer patients. Based on these features, predictive models were constructed using 4 machine learning classification algorithms: support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), gradient boosting decision tree (GBDT), and adaptive boosting (AdaBoost). The predictive performance of these models was evaluated using accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, F1 value, and area under the curve (AUC).Results:The accuracy values for the SVM, RF, GBDT and AdaBoost models were 0.75, 0.75, 0.70, and 0.82, respectively. The sensitivity values were 0.82, 0.82, 0.64, and 0.82, respectively. The specificity values were 0.63, 0.63, 0.63, and 0.75, respectively. The F1 scores were 0.78, 0.78, 0.67, and 0.82, respectively. The AUC values were 0.85, 0.80, 0.76, and 0.85, respectively.Conclusions:The predictive models constructed by combining chi-square feature testing and machine learning methods can effectively predict the selection of respiratory motion management strategies. Among the models, the AdaBoost model demonstrated the best predictive performance for selecting respiratory motion management strategies.
