Objective To explore the clinical value of artificial intelligence (AI) quantitative parameters in distinguishing pathological grades of stageⅠ invasive adenocarcinoma (IAC). Methods Clinical data of patients with clinical stageⅠ IAC admitted to Yantaishan Hospital Affiliated to Binzhou Medical University from October 2018 to May 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Based on the 2021 WHO pathological grading criteria for lung adenocarcinoma, IAC was divided into gradeⅠ, grade Ⅱ, and grade Ⅲ. The differences in parameters among the groups were compared, and logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the predictive efficacy of AI quantitative parameters for grade Ⅲ IAC patients. Parameters were screened using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis. Three machine learning models were constructed based on these parameters to predict grade Ⅲ IAC and were internally validated to assess their efficacy. Nomograms were used for visualization. Results A total of 261 IAC patients were included, including 101 males and 160 females, with an average age of 27-88 (61.96±9.17) years. Six patients had dual primary lesions, and different lesions from the same patient were analyzed as independent samples. There were 48 patients of gradeⅠ IAC, 89 patients of grade Ⅱ IAC, and 130 patients of grade Ⅲ IAC. There were statitical differences in the AI quantitive parameters such as consolidation/tumor ratio (CTR), ect among the three goups. (P<0.05). Univariate analysis showed that the differences in all variables except age were statistically significant (P<0.05) between the group gradeⅠ+grade Ⅱand the group grade Ⅲ . Multivariate analysis suggested that CTR and CT standard deviation were independent risk factors for identifying grade Ⅲ IAC, and the two were negatively correlated. Grade Ⅲ IAC exhibited advanced TNM staging, more pathological high-risk factors, higher lymph node metastasis rate, and higher proportion of advanced structure. CTR was positively correlated with the proportion of advanced structures in all patients. This correlation was also observed in grade Ⅲ but not in gradeⅠand grade ⅡIAC. CTR and CT median value were selected by using LASSO regression. Logistic regression, random forest, and XGBoost models were constructed and validated, among which, the XGBoost model demonstrated the best predictive performance. Conclusion Cautious consideration should be given to grade Ⅲ IAC when CTR is higher than 39.48% and CT standard deviation is less than 122.75 HU. The XGBoost model based on combined CTR and CT median value has good predictive efficacy for grade Ⅲ IAC, aiding clinicians in making personalized clinical decisions.

Doctor-patient communication not only depends on the medical group but is also affected by the patient group and the specific situation. Effective doctor-patient communication requires the doctors to improve their communication skills， the patients to have relevant knowledge regarding a certain symptom or disease， and mutual trust between the doctor and patient. The information ecology theory mainly analyzes the relationships between various ecological elements and the ecological development mechanisms in the process of information activities from the perspective of the ecosystem， as well as attaches importance to the mutual influences and roles of information subjects and objects， information contents， information environment， and information technology within the system， which is consistent with the influencing factors of doctor-patient communication. Based on the information ecology theory， this paper analyzed the new problems faced by doctor-patient communication under the information technology environment from the four dimensions， including information subjects and objects， information itself， information context， and information technology. It was proposed that effective doctor-patient communication required to re-examine the influencing factors of doctor-patient communication， as well as construct a doctor-patient community， including a community of knowledge， communication， emotion， and interest， so that the four factors of doctor-patient communication can form a new balance in the dynamic development， with a view to providing practical guidance for doctor-patient trust and effective doctor-patient communication.

OBJECTIVE: To identify phytochemical constituents present in the extract of flowers of Xanthoceras sorbifolia and evaluate their anti-oxidant and anti-hyperglycemic capacities. METHODS: The AlCl₃ colorimetric method and Prussian Blue assay were used to determine the contents of total flavonoids and total phenolic acids in extraction layers, and the bioactive layers was screened through anti - oxidative activity in vitro. The Waters ACQUITY UPLC system and a Waters ACQUITY UPLC BEH C₁₈ column (2.0 mm × 150 mm, 5 μm) were used to identify the ingredients. And anti-oxidative ingredients were screened by off-line UPLC-QTOF-MS/MS-free radical scavenging. The ameliorative role of it was further evaluated in a high-fat, streptozotocin-induced type 2 diabetic rat model and the study was carried out on NADPH oxidase (PDB ID: 2CDU) by molecular docking. RESULTS: Combined with the results of activity screening in vitro, the anti - oxidative part was identified as the ethyl acetate layer. A total of 24 chemical constituents were identified by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry in the ethyl acetate layer and 13 main anti-oxidative active constituents were preliminarily screened out through off-line UPLC-QTOF-MS/MS-free radical scavenging. In vivo experiments showed that flowers of X. sorbifolia could significantly reduce the blood glucose level of diabetic mice and alleviate liver cell damage. Based on the results of docking analysis related to the identified phytocompounds and oxidase which involved in type 2 diabetes, quercetin 3-O-rutinoside, kaempferol-3-O-rhamnoside, isorhamnetin-3-O-glucoside, and isoquercitrin showed a better inhibitory profile. CONCLUSION The ethyl acetate layer was rich in flavonoids and phenolic acids and had significant anti-oxidant activity, which could prevent hyperglycemia. This observed activity profile suggested X. sorbifolia flowers as a promising new source of tea to develop alternative natural anti-diabetic products with a high safety margin.

Transradial approach is the classical access for coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). With the increase in the number of interventional procedures, some disadvantages of the transradial approach have also been found, it is easy to lead to various complications, such as radial artery occlusion, radial nerve injury, and puncture difficulties after radial artery spasm. Therefore, some experts put forward the approach of distal radial artery approach for interventional therapy, which has the advantages of convenient positioning, easy postoperative hemostasis, less damage to the proximal radial artery and improving patients' comfort. However, there is no special distal radial artery hemostat in clinic, which limits the development of this approach to a certain extent. Therefore, based on the principles of anatomy and physics, cardiovascular physician at Jiading District District Central Hospital in Shanghai designed and invented a distal radial artery hemostatic device, which is convenient for clinical hemostasis of distal radial artery puncture, and obtained the National Utility Model Patent (patent number: ZL 2021 2 2097829.6). The hemostatic device consists of a glove body with a silicone gasket protruding towards the skin on the inner surface and a binding component. The patient's hand is inserted into the glove body, and after being fixed by the restraint component, the silicone gasket can effectively compress the location of the radial artery puncture point, and play a good hemostatic effect with less pressure, avoid the common complications of proximal radial artery hemostatic, and reduce the discomfort of the patient. Has good application value.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors for high-output stoma (HOS) in patients undergoing rectal cancer radical resection combined with terminal ileostomy.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the medical records of 104 patients who underwent radical resection for rectal cancer combined with terminal ileostomy at Northern Jiangsu People′s Hospital from January 2020 to December 2022. Among them, 77 were male and 27 were female, with ages ranging from 31 to 84 years and an average age of 62.60 years. HOS was defined as an average stoma output ≥1500 mL/24 h within 3 days after resuming oral intake. Based on the presence of HOS post-surgery, patients were divided into the HOS group ( n=29) and the non-HOS group ( n=77). The two groups were compared based on gender, age, body mass index (BMI), preoperative albumin, hemoglobin, fasting blood glucose, surgery duration, surgical approach, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative albumin, hemoglobin, white blood cell count, and C-reactive protein (CRP). Data were analyzed using SPSS27.0. Continuous data were expressed as mean±standard deviation( ± s), and independent t-tests or non-parametric tests were used for group comparisons. Chi-square tests were used for categorical data, and logistic regression was employed to evaluate the influence of various factors on the occurrence of HOS. Results:There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of gender, preoperative albumin, hemoglobin, fasting blood glucose, surgery duration, surgical approach, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative albumin, hemoglobin, or white blood cell count ( P>0.05). Univariate logistic regression analysis indicated that older patients were more likely to develop HOS ( P=0.037, OR=1.047), those with lower BMI were at higher risk of HOS ( P<0.001, OR=0.448), and elevated postoperative CRP was associated with an increased likelihood of HOS ( P<0.001, OR=1.027). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that BMI ( OR=0.302, 95% CI: 0.164-0.555, P<0.001) and postoperative CRP ( OR=1.045, 95% CI: 1.023-1.068, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for the occurrence of HOS. Conclusion:Lower BMI and elevated postoperative CRP are significant independent risk factors for the development of HOS in rectal cancer patients.
