Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To investigate the application value of nectin-4 targeting radiotracer 68Ga-N188 in the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. Methods:The prospective study was conducted. The clinicopathologic data of 16 patients diagnosed as pancreatic cancer on enhanced computed tomography (CT) who were admitted to the Peking University First Hospital from August to December 2022 were collected. There were 9 males and 7 females, aged (62±8)years. All patients underwent 18F-flurodeoxyglucose ( 18F-FDG) and 68Ga-N188 positron emission tomography (PET)/CT examination. Observation indicators: (1) distribution of 68Ga-N188 in different tissues and tumor primary lesion of patients; (2) expression of Nectin-4 and uptake of 68Ga-N188 in pancreatic cancer; (3) comparison of examination results between 68Ga-N188 and 18F-FDG PET/CT. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages. Results:(1) Distribution of 68Ga-N188 in different tissues and tumor primary lesion of patients. Results of PET/CT examination showed that in 1 hour after injection, the maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax) and mean standard uptake value (SUVmean) of 68Ga-N188 in fat, muscle, skin, and brain tissues of 16 patients were 0.40±0.16 and 0.25±0.09, 0.68±0.20 and 0.44±0.12, 0.39±0.14 and 0.28±0.11, 0.09±0.04 and 0.05±0.02, respectively.

In tumor primary lesion, the above indicators were 3.28±1.02 and 2.14±0.62, respectively, showing significant differences in SUVmax and SUVmean compared with pancreatic tissue ( t=8.03, 6.75, P<0.05). The tumor background ratio in tumor primary lesion based on SUVmax was 1.82±0.58. (2) Expression of Nectin-4 and uptake of 68Ga-N188 in pancreatic cancer. Results of immunohistochemical staining in 16 patients showed that there were 7 patients with high Nectin-4 expression and 9 patients with low Nectin-4 expression. Results of PET/CT examination showed that the SUVmax of 68Ga-N188 in tumor primary lesion of the 7 patients with high Nectin-4 expression and 9 patients with low Nectin-4 expression were 3.77±1.10 and 2.64±0.68, showing a significant difference between them ( t=2.64, P<0.05). The SUVmax of 18F-FDG in tumor primary lesion of the 7 patients with high Nectin-4 expression and 9 patients with low Nectin-4 expression were 6.73±3.24 and 6.43±3.45, showing no significant difference between them ( t=0.17, P>0.05). (3) Comparison of examination results between 68Ga-N188 and 18F-FDG PET/CT. Of the 16 patients, cases with positive results of tumor primary lesion on 68Ga-N188 and 18F-FDG PET/CT were 14 and 11, respectively, for the 14 pancreatic cancer patients diagnosed by postoperative histopathology. Among them, cases with positive results of tumor primary lesion on 68Ga-N188 and 18F-FDG PET/CT were 3 and 1 for the 3 pancreatic cancer patients receiving evaluation for chemotherapy. The SUVmax of 18F-FDG in tumor primary lesion of the 3 patients with chemotherapy and the 11 patients without chemotherapy were 2.80±0.69 and 6.97±2.11, showing a significant difference between them ( t=3.29, P<0.05). The SUVmax of 68Ga-N188 in tumor primary lesion of the 3 patients with chemotherapy and the 11 patients without chemotherapy were 3.38±1.12 and 2.93±0.50, showing no significant difference between them ( t=0.66, P>0.05). Cases with positive results of lymph node metastases in 68Ga-N188 and 18F-FDG PET/CT were 6 and 4, respectively, for the 6 pancreatic cancer patients diagnosed with lymph node metastases by postoperative histopathology, and the SUVmax of 68Ga-N188 and 18F-FDG in lymph node metastases were 2.25±1.12 and 4.02±1.27. Conclusion:68Ga-N188 PET/CT can be used for imaging diagnosis of tumor primary lesion and lymph node metastases of pancreatic cancer.

Objective To explore the value of model established with radiomics features based on contrast enhanced arterial phase CT and model with radiogenomics for predicting prognosis of ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma(OSC).Methods Enhanced arterial phase CT images of 110 OSC patients were retrospectively collected from 2 centers and The Cancer Imaging Archive(TCIA)database.The radiomics features were extracted,among those related to prognosis were selected to establish a radiomics Cox regression model.Genes data of 399 OSC patients were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)database,and genes related to the radiomics features included in the above radiomics model were identified with high Pearson correlation coefficient,and then enrichment gene analyses were performed.For 57 OSC cases with complete enhanced CT and gene data,the hub genes which had the highest connectivity with radiomics prognosis predicting model were detected using Cox regression and protein-protein interaction(PPI).Furthermore,a radiogenomics prognosis predicting model was established with the hub genes.The efficiencies of these 2 models for predicting prognosis of OSC patients were analyzed.Results Finally,the radiomics model included 5 OSC prognosis-related radiomics features,with C-index of 0.782 and 0.735 in corresponding training and test set,respectively.Meanwhile,the radiogenomics model included 30 prognostic hub genes,with C-index of 0.673 and 0.659 in corresponding training and test set,respectively.The survival rates of patients with better predicted prognosis according to radiomics model and radiogenomics model were both higher compared with the others(both P＜0.05).Totally 1 135 mRNA genes were found being associated with radiomics model,including biological behaviors such as cell adhesion,and signaling pathways such as PI3K-Akt,extracellular matrix receptor interaction pathway and type 1 diabetes pathway.Conclusion The radiomics model was effective for predicting prognosis of OSC patients.Analysis of mRNA bioinformatics in OSC patients might provide biological interpretations for the radiomics model.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness and safety of laparoscopic-assisted liposuction in the treatment of gynecomastia.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 115 male breast development patients from January 2021 to May 2023 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University and Shaoguan Hospital of Southern Medical University. The patients were divided into two groups based on surgical methods: the laparoscopic combined liposuction technique group (observation group) and the traditional areola incision group (control group). The control group consisted of 59 cases, aged between 18 and 52 years (26.2±5.2); There were 56 cases in the observation group, aged between 18 and 55 years (26.5±5.2). The differences in surgical time, intraoperative blood loss, drainage tube removal time, incidence of surgical complications, postoperative drainage volume, pain visual analog scale (VAS), and patient satisfaction were compared between two groups of patients.Results:The intraoperative bleeding volume, drainage tube removal time, and postoperative drainage volume in the observation group were 12.25±2.23, 2.85±0.53, and 80.52±7.53, respectively, all of which were lower than those in the control group (26.53±2.35, 4.22±0.59, 81.25±8.54, respectively), and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05).The incidence of sensory abnormalities in the nipple areola area of the observation group was 1.8% (1/56), which was lower than the 10.2% (6/59) of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05).The postoperative breast shape, nipple shape, and incision score of the observation group were 81.15±18.52, 77.85±22.15, and 72.58±10.56 points, respectively, all higher than the control group's 69.34±18.48, 78.12±21.75, and 60.35±9.35 points, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Laparoscopic combined with liposuction technology for the treatment of gynecomastia can reduce intraoperative bleeding and postoperative drainage volume and shorten the time for removing drainage tubes with better safety.

Objective:To construct a combined radiomics model based on preoperative enhanced computed tomography (CT) examination for predicting microvascular invasion (MVI) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and provide biological explanations for the radiomics model.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The messenger RNA (mRNA) of 424 HCC patients, the clinicopathological data of 39 HCC patients entered into the Cancer Genome Atlas database from its establishment until January 2023, and the clinicopathological data of 53 HCC patients who were admitted to the Gansu Provincial People′s Hospital from January 2020 to January 2023 were collected. The 92 HCC patients were randomly divided into a training dataset of 64 cases and a test dataset of 28 cases with a ratio of 7∶3 based on a random number table method. The CT images of patients in the arterial phase and portal venous phase as well as the corresponding clinical data were analyzed. The 3Dslicer software (version 5.0.3) was used to register the CT images in the arterial phase and portal venous phase and delineate the three-dimensional regions of interest. The original images were preprocessed and the corresponding features were extracted by the open-source software FAE (version 0.5.5). After selecting features using the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator, the radiomics model was constructed and the radiomics score (R-score) was calculated. The nomogram was constructed by integrating clinical parameters, imaging features and R-score based on Logistic regression. The gene modules related to radiomics model were obtained and subjected to enrichment analysis by conducting weighted gene co-expression network analysis and correlation analysis. Observation indicators: (1) comparison of clinical characteristics of patients with different MVI properties; (2) establishment of MVI risk model; (3) evaluation of MVI risk model; (4) clustering of gene modules; (5) functional enrichment of feature-correlated gene modules. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Comparison of count data was conducted using the chi-square test. The intra-/inter-class correlation coefficient (ICC) was used to assess the inter-observer consistency of radiomics feature extracted by different observers. ICC >0.75 indicated a good consistency in feature extraction. The Logistic regression model was used for univariate and multivariate analyses. The receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn, and the area under curve (AUC), the decision curve and the calibration curve were used to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy and clinical practicality of the model. Results:(1) Comparison of clinical characteristics of patients with different MVI properties. Of 92 HCC patients, there were 47 cases with MVI-positive and 45 cases with MVI-negative, and there were significant differences in hepatitis, tumor diameter, peritumoral enhancement, intratumoral arteries, pseudocapsule and smoothness of tumor margin between them ( χ2=5.308, 9.977, 47.370, 32.368, 21.105, 31.711, P<0.05). (2) Establishment of MVI risk model. A total of 1 781 features were extrac-ted from arterial and portal venous phases of the intratumoral and peritumoral regions. After feature dimension reduction, 8 radiomics features were selected from arterial and portal venous phases to construct the combined model. Results of multivariate analysis showed that peritumoral enhancement, intratumoral arteries, pseudocapsule, smoothness of tumor margins, and R-score were independent risk factors for MVI in patients with HCC [ hazard ratio=0.049, 0.017, 0.017, 0.021, 2.539, 95% confidence interval ( CI) as 0.005-0.446, 0.001-0.435, 0.001-0.518, 0.001-0.473, 1.220-5.283, P<0.05]. A nomogram model was constructed incorporating peritumoral enhancement, intratumoral arteries, pseudocapsule, smoothness of tumor margins, and R-score. (3) Evaluation of the MVI risk model. The AUC of radiomics model was 0.923 (95% CI as 0.887-0.944) and 0.918 (95% CI as 0.894-0.945) in the training dataset and test dataset, respectively. The AUC of nomogram model, incorpora-ting both the R-score and radiomics features, was 0.973 (95% CI as 0.954-0.988) and 0.962 (95% CI as 0.942-0.987) in the training dataset and test dataset, respectively. Results of decision curve showed that the nomogram had better clinical utility compared to the R-score. Results of calibration curve showed good consistency between the actual observed outcomes and the nomogram or the R-score. (4) Clustering of gene module. Results of weighted gene co-expression network analysis showed that 8 gene modules were obtained. (5) Functional enrichment of feature-related gene modules. Results of correlation analysis showed 4 gene modules were significantly associated with radiomics features. The radiomics features predicting of MVI may be related to pathways such as the cell cycle, neutrophil extracellular trap formation, and PPAR signaling pathway. Conclusions:The combined radiomics model based on preoperative enhanced CT imaging can predict the MVI status of HCC. By obtaining mRNA gene expression profiles associated with radiomics features, a biological interpretation of the radiomics model is provided.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of Huanglian Jiedutang on the inflammatory injury in the mouse model of acute gouty arthritis （AGA） and to explore the mechanism of Huanglian Jiedutang in treating AGA. MethodForty male C57BL/6J mice were randomized into blank， model， colchicine （0.83 mg·kg^-1）， and Huanglian Jiedutang （5 g·kg^-1） groups. The mouse model of AGA was established by injecting monosodium urate （MSU） crystals into the ankle joint. The swelling degree of the right ankle joint of each mouse was measured every day for 7 days， and the pathological changes of the ankle joint were detected by hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining after 7 days. The other 40 C57BL/6J mice were grouped as above. After 18 hours of modeling， the right ankle joint was collected， and real-time polymerase chain reaction was employed to measure the mRNA levels of interleukin （IL）-1β， tumor necrosis factor （TNF）-α， IL-6， NOD-like receptor protein 3 （NLRP3）， apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD （ASC）， and Caspase-1. The expression levels of IL-1β， TNF-α， and IL-6 were measured by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Western blot was employed to determine the protein levels of NLRP3 inflammasome， Toll-like receptor 4 （TLR4）， and nuclear factor-κB （NF-κB）. ResultCompared with the blank group， the model group showed swelling right ankle joint （P<0.01）， obvious foreign body granuloma in the ankle joint with inflammatory cell infiltration. After the treatment with Huanglian Jiedutang， the ankle joint swelling was relieved （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the size of foreign body granuloma was reduced. Compared with the blank group， the model group showed up-regulated mRNA levels of IL-1β， TNF-α， and IL-6 in the ankle joint tissue （P<0.01）， up-regulated mRNA levels of NLRP3 and Caspase-1 in the NLRP3 inflammasome （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and up-regulated protein levels of NLRP3， Caspase-1， TLR4， and NF-κB （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Huanglian Jiedutang down-regulated the mRNA levels of IL-1β， TNF-α， IL-6， NLRP3， and Caspase-1 （P<0.05， P<0.01） and the protein levels of IL-1β， TNF-α， IL-6， NLRP3， Caspase-1， TLR4， and NF-κB （P<0.05 or P<0.01）. ConclusionInjecting MSU crystal resulted in local inflammatory injury of the joints in the mouse model of AGA. The treatment with Huanglian Jiedutang may alleviate the inflammatory injury by regulating the NLRP3 inflammasome and TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Novel coronavirus Omicron variant infection can cause severe illness and even death in certain populations. Omicron variant infection may lead to systemic inflammatory response, coagulation disorder, multi-organ dysfunction and other pathophysiological changes, which are different from other Novel coronavirus variants to a certain extent, so therapeutic strategies should not be the same. The National Medical Center for Major Public Health Events invited experts in fields of infectious diseases, respiratory medicine, intensive care, pediatrics and fever clinic to develop this quick guideline based on the current best evidence and extensive clinical practices. This quick guideline aims to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of novel coronavirus Omicron infection, and to improve the disease management abilities of clinicians.

Objective:To screen and diagnose cervical lesions in middle-aged and elderly postmenopausal women and analyze the characteristics of cervical lesions in middle-aged and elderly women.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the screening data of 1 337 postmenopausal women aged between 50 and 86 years who visited the outpatient clinics of the gynecology department of Beijing Hospital between January, 2015 and December, 2019.Participants were divided into groups based on age, with 787 in the 50-59 years old group, 483 in the 60-69 years old group, 60 in the 70-79 years old group, and 7 in the 80-89 years old group.Exfoliated cervical cells were collected, and high-risk human papillomavirus(HPV)detection and liquid-based cervical cytology examination were performed to confirm the diagnosis based on the pathological results of cervical biopsy.Cervical lesions were analyzed.Results:53.0%(708)of the 1 337 enrolled patients made their hospital visits because of symptoms.There were 666 patients(49.8%)with cervical lesions, including 357 with low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions(LSIL), 252 with high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions(HSIL)and 57(4.3%)with cervical cancer.The 70-79 group showed the highest incidence of HSIL at 30.0%(18/60), while the 50~59 group had the highest incidence of LSIL at 30.6%(241/787), and there were significant differences in different types of cervical lesions between different age groups( χ2=28.919, P<0.01). Liquid-based cervical cytology examination revealed a positive rate of 51.6%(166/322)for LSIL, a positive rate of 70.8%(143/202)for HSIL, and a rate of 71.4%(25/35)for cervical cancer.There were significant differences in LSIL, HSIL and other above-mentioned positive rates of lesions( P<0.05). In the cervical malignancy group, cytological high-grade squamous epithelial lesions made up 51.4%(18/35). Intraepithelial lesions or cancerous lesions represented 29.2%(59/202)in the HSIL group.The rate of intraepithelial lesions or cancerous lesions in the LSIL group was 48.4%(156/322), with statistically significance in these differences( χ2=118.806, P<0.01). Chronic cervicitis was found in 52.9%(109)of 206 patients with atypical squamous cells and positive HPV, and in 76.2%(16)of 21 patients without HPV.HPV examination was completed in 1 301 patients, with 69.4%(903)having infections by one HPV strain and 30.6%(398)having infections by mixed HPV strains.Biopsy results showed that the rates of HPV infections in LSIL, HSIL and cancer patients were 84.6%(302/357), 95.9(185/193)and 100%(54/54), respectively, and the differences in these pathological results were statistically significant( P<0.01). HPV16 was the most common subtype in single HPV strain infections.The most common subtypes of HPV infections in cervical lesions with HSIL and above were HPV16 and HPV18.The agreement rate was 52.4%(187/357)for LSIL, 60.7%(153/252)for HSIL, and 64.9%(37/57)for cervical cancer between diagnoses based on cervical biopsy and those based on colposcopy.As the severity of lesions increased, the accuracy of colposcopy also increased.Differences between colposcopic diagnosis and pathological diagnosis on different types of cervical lesions were statistically significant( χ2=550.382, P<0.01).1 310 patients underwent endocervical curettage, identifying 120 cases of HSIL and 39 cases of cervical cancer, with a detection rate of 55.8%(159/285). Conclusions:The incidence of cervical cancer is high in elderly women.The incidences of high-grade lesions and cervical cancer in patients with atypical squamous cells plus HPV infections in the cervix are also high.Postmenopausal patients with cervical lesions are mainly infected by a single HPV subtype, with subtype 16 being the most common one.With increasing severity of lesions, the accuracy of colposcopy-based diagnosis increases and the rate of missed diagnosis decreases.Cervical curettage is an important means to reduce missed diagnosis with colposcopy.

Objective:To compare three fixed-field intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) plans for nasal cavity and paranasal sinus tumors, including the coplanar IMRT (C-IMRT) plan and the non-coplanar IMRT(NC-IMRT) plan which were based on a conventional C-arm LINAC (Trilogy), and the coplanar IMRT (H-IMRT) plan based on an O-ring LINAC (Halcyon).Methods:Based on the data of 10 patients in the Ningbo First Hospital from December 2018 to December 2021 with nasal cavity and paranasal sinus tumors who underwent postoperative radiotherapy, this study redesigned three IMRT plans with the same prescribed doses and optimization objectives. Then, this study compared the doses of target volumes and organ at risks(OARs), the validation pass rates, and the execution time of these plans. Friedman test was employed in this study, and multiple comparisons were further made in cases of different results.Results:The differences in the conformal index (CI) of PTV and PTV boost of the three plans were statistically significant ( χ2 = 7.51, 9.69, P < 0.05). The multiple comparisons showed that the median CI of the H-IMRT plan was higher than that of the NC-IMRT plan ( Z = 2.53, 2.68, P < 0.05). The differences in other parameters of target volumes were not statistically significant. Compared with the C-IMRT plan, the H-IMRT plan reduced the Dmax of bilateral lenses, bilateral corneas, ipsilateral optic nerve, and ipsilateral eyeball ( Z = 2.80, 2.80, 2.80, 2.80, 2.81, 2.09, P < 0.05). Compared with the C-IMRT plan, the NC-IMRT reduced the Dmax of bilateral lenses, corneas, and eyeballs and contralateral optic nerve ( Z = 2.80, 2.66, 2.80, 2.70, 2.29, 2.29, 2.65, P < 0.05) and reduced the Dmean of bilateral eyeballs ( Z = 2.80, 2.80, P < 0.05). Compared with the NC-IMRT plan, the H-IMRT plan reduced the Dmax of the ipsilateral lens and cornea ( Z = 2.50, 2.08, P < 0.05), but increased the Dmax of the contralateral optic nerve and the Dmean of bilateral eyeballs ( Z = 2.80, 2.80, 2.80, P < 0.05). The validation pass rate of the three plans met the institutional standards, and the differences were not statistically significant. Moreover, the H-IMRT plan had the shortest median execution time (172.00 s), followed by the C-IMRT plan (337.50 s), and the NC-IMRT plan (388.00 s). Conclusions:The verification pass rate of the three plans can achieve the requirements of treatment implementation. The three plans had similar dosimetric differences in target volumes. However, the H-IMRT and NC-IMRT plans can protect the normal tissues (especially optical organs) more effectively than the C-IMRT plan, which is conducive to reducing the toxicity after radiotherapy and provides space for local dose increase or the radiotherapy for the treatment of tumor recurrence. The execution efficiency of the three plans is in the order of H-IMRT > C-IMRT > NC-IMRT. It is necessary to select appropriate radiotherapy equipment and technology according to actual situations.

Objective:To investigate the dosimetric differences between conventional IMRT and electron beam conformal radiotherapy (EBCRT) combined with IMRT for post-mastectomy left-sided breast cancer patients.Methods:A total of 20 post-mastectomy left-sided breast cancer patients who were treated in the Ningbo First Hospital from June 2018 to October 2021 were retrospectively studied. The planning target volume (PTV) included the supra-and infra-clavicular regions(PTV sc)and the ipsilateral chest wall (PTV cw), and the prescribed dose was 50 Gy/25 f. All radiotherapy plans were designed using the Varian Eclipse treatment planning system (TPS). After that, the dose distribution of the target volume and the dose exposure of organs at risk (OARs) were compared and analyzed. Results:All the IMRT plans met the clinical requirements, yet 2/20 of the EBCRT combined with IMRT plans were not clinically accepted. For these two patients, the maximum chest wall thickness was 3.7 cm and 4.4 cm each, and the designed electron beam energy was 12 MeV and 15 MeV, respectively. The dose to the ipsilateral lung of these two patients exceeded the institution-specific dose limit standard. For the remaining 18 patients whose chest wall thickness was 3 cm or less, the designed electron beams were 9 MeV or less. All the EBCRT combined with IMRT plans were clinically accepted. The target dose distribution of the conventional IMRT was better than that of the EBCRT combined with IMRT (uniformity index (HI): PTV sc: t = -10.20, P<0.05; PTV cw: t = -9.24, P<0.05; conformal index (CI): PTV all: t = 10.39, P <0.05). For OARs, the V5 Gy, V20 Gy, and Dmean of the ipsilateral lung of EBCRT combined with IMRT were lower than those of IMRT ( t = 5.98, 6.30, 11.30, P <0.05). Specifically, the V25 Gy and Dmean of heart decreased by 8.3% and 4.79 Gy, respectively ( t = 15.23, 15.76, P<0.05), the Dmean of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LADCA) decreased by 44.03% ( t = 11.69, P <0.05), and the V5 Gy and Dmean of the contralateral breast decreased by 7.9% and 0.8 Gy, respectively ( t = 3.66, 4.93, P<0.05). The dosimetric differences of other OARs were not statistically significant ( P > 0.05). Conclusions:For post-mastectomy left-sided breast cancer patients with a chest wall thickness of less than 3 cm, EBCRT combined IMRT can significantly reduce the exposure dose to the heart, the ipsilateral lung, and the contralateral breast, which is beneficial to reducing the potential risk of long-term complications after radiotherapy and can further improve the long-term overall survival rate of patients. For patients with thick chest wall, IMRT plans are more technologically ideal.
