BACKGROUND:Oral and maxillofacial bone tissue defects can seriously affect the physical and mental health of patients.When bone defects occur in diabetic patients,bone metabolism disorders caused by abnormal blood sugar make it more difficult to repair and treat. OBJECTIVE:To attempt to apply AOPDM1,a polypeptide with potential bioactivity to the osteogenic treatment of diabetic patients. METHODS:In normal or high-glucose environment,different concentrations of AOPDM1 were used to interfere with mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells,and cell proliferation,alkaline phosphatase activity,mineralization nodules formation and osteogenic differentiation gene expression were detected.The polycaprolactone scaffold was prepared by electrospinning technology,and the scaffold was modified by polydopamine to prepare the polycaprolactone-polydopamine composite scaffold.Finally,the scaffolds were placed in AOPDM1 solution to prepare polycaprolactone-polydopamine-AOPDM1 scaffolds.The water contact angle and mechanical properties of the scaffolds were tested in the three groups.In normal or high-glucose environment,the three groups of scaffolds were co-cultured with mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells,respectively,and cell adhesion,alkaline phosphatase activity and osteopontin expression were detected. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Compared with normal environment,high-glucose environment inhibited the proliferation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.In the same environment,AOPDM1 could promote the proliferation of mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.When AOPDM1 concentration was the same,alkaline phosphatase activity,mineralization ability and mRNA expression of type Ⅰ collagen,osteopontin,alkaline phosphatase,and Runx2 of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were decreased in high-glucose environment compared with normal environment.Under the same environment,AOPDM1 could improve the alkaline phosphatase activity,mineralization ability,and mRNA expression of type Ⅰ collagen,osteopontin,alkaline phosphatase and Runx2 of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.(2)The hydrophilicity of polycaprolactone-polydopamine scaffold and polycaprolactone-polydopamine-AOPDM1 scaffold was higher than that of polycaprolactone scaffold(P<0.001),and there was no significant difference in tensile strength and elastic modulus among the three groups(P>0.05).Compared with the other two groups of scaffolds,the cells on the polycaprolactone-polydopamine-AOPDM1 scaffold had better adhesion morphology.When the scaffolds were identical,compared with normal environment,high-glucose environment inhibited alkaline phosphatase activity and osteopontin expression of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.When the environment was the same,the alkaline phosphatase activity and osteopontin expression of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells on the polycaprolactone-polydopamine-AOPDM1 scaffold were higher than those on the other two scaffolds.(3)The above results prove that polycaprolactone-polydopamine-AOPDM composite scaffold can promote the osteogenic properties of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in high-glucose environment.

OBJECTIVE
In the process of drug dispensing, using computer vision technology to identify drugs is vulnerable to the influence of lighting, angle, packaging and other factors, which will produce large identification errors. Therefore, this paper proposes an object detection algorithm for drug appearance recognition(YOLOv4-GhostNet-CMB).
METHODS
Firstly, the algorithm redesigned the backbone feature extraction network in YOLOv4 by using GhostNet. Secondly, the CA attention model was brought into the Ghost module, aggregate features along horizontal and vertical directions to enhance the precise positioning of drugs. Finally, Bi-FPN feature pyramid structure was introduced to connect with the new backbone, and added a feature graph output which could enhance feature extraction and improved the detection accuracy of drugs.
RESULTS
The experimental results show that the average detection accuracy of YOLOv4-GhostNet-CMB algorithm reached 92.24%, which was a significant improvement of 4.49% compared with YOLOv4 algorithm in term of detection accuracy.
CONCLUSION
The model size is only 150 MB, nd this algorithm can effectively identify drugs.

ObjectiveTo investigate the ability of the modified albumin-bilirubin (mALBI) grade in predicting the prognosis of patients with Child-Pugh A unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC) after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with immunotherapy and anti-angiogenic drugs (hereafter referred to as targeted immunotherapy). MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the data of 76 patients with Child-Pugh A uHCC who met the inclusion criteria and underwent TACE combined with targeted immunotherapy in The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2020 to January 2023, and according to the mALBI grade, they were divided into mALBI 1/2a group with 38 patients and mALBI 2b group with 38 patients. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS), and the secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), and disease control rate (DCR). Evaluation criteria included complete remission, partial remission, stable disease, and progressive disease. The independent-samples t test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between groups, and the Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between groups; the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical variables between two groups. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to plot survival curves, and the Log-rank test was used for comparison of median OS (mOS) and median PFS (mPFS) between groups. The univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards models were used to analyze the influencing factors for prognosis. ResultsThere were significant differences in albumin and tumor burden between the two groups (both P<0.05). The 76 patients had an mOS of 25.2 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 18.4 — 32.0), an mPFS of 9.4 months (95%CI: 7.1 — 11.7), an ORR of 63.2%, and a DCR of 82.9%. The mOS was 30.1 months (95%CI: 19.8 — 40.4) in the mALBI 1/2a group and 19.5 months (95%CI: 7.1 — 31.9) in the mALBI 2b group, and there was a significant difference in mOS between the two groups (χ2=4.490, P=0.034). The mALBI 1/2a group had an mPFS of 10.2 months (95%CI: 8.4 — 12.0), an ORR of 71.1%, and a DCR of 86.8%, while the mALBI 2b group had an mPFS of 7.6 months (95%CI: 4.6 — 10.6), an ORR of 55.3%, and a DCR of 78.9%; there were no significant differences in mPFS, ORR, and DCR between the two groups (all P>0.05). ECOG status, tumor burden, mALBI grade, portal vein invasion, and extrahepatic metastasis were independent risk factors for mOS in patients undergoing TACE combined with targeted immunotherapy (all P<0.05). There were no treatment-related deaths. ConclusionThe mALBI grade has a good value in predicting the survival of patients with Child-Pugh A uHCC undergoing TACE combined with targeted immunotherapy.

Objective:To explore the prognostic value of quantitative plaque analysis and coronary CT angiography (CCTA) derived fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR) in evaluating plaque progression (PP).Methods:A total of 118 consecutive patients who underwent serial CCTA examinations in Affiliated Hospital of Jiangnan University from December 2013 to December 2017 were retrospectively enrolled. There were 37 patients in the PP group and 81 patients in the non-PP group. All patients′ CCTA images were quantitatively analyzed using plaque analysis software. The quantitative analysis parameters included stenosis degree, plaque length, total plaque volume, calcified plaque volume, non-calcified plaque volume, minimum lumen area, remodeling index(RI) and plaque burden. Plaque progression was defined as plaque burden change rate>1%. CT-FFR analysis was performed using cFFR software and the CT-FFR value was measured at 2-4 cm distal to the coronary lesion. Baseline parameters between the two groups were evaluated using Students t-test, U-test, chi-square test. The logistic regression model was conducted to evaluate the relationship between CCTA derived parameters and PP. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis with the areas under the curve (AUC) was used to determine the predictive performance of different CCTA parameters. Results:Compared with the non-PP group, the patients were older( t=2.391, P=0.018), the prevalence of hyperlipidemia was higher(χ2=4.550, P=0.033), and the proportion of statins use was lower (χ2=4.764, P=0.029) in the PP group. The PP group showed greater coronary stenosis, smaller minimum lumen area, larger plaque volume and non-calcified plaque volume, larger remodeling index and lower CT-FFR value on baseline CCTA (all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that RI(OR=2.714, 95%CI:1.078-6.836)and CT-FFR (OR=2.940, 95%CI:1.215-7.116) were independent predictors of PP. The model based on CCTA stenosis degree, quantitative plaque features and CT-FFR (AUC 0.83, 95%CI: 0.75-0.90; P<0.001) was significantly better than the model based on CCTA stenosis degree (AUC 0.62, 95%CI: 0.52-0.70, P=0.049) and the model based on CCTA stenosis degree and quantitative plaque characteristics (AUC 0.77, 95%CI: 0.68-0.84, P<0.001). Conclusions:Compared with the prediction model derived on stenosis degree, plaque quantitative markers and CT-FFR can improve the prediction value of PP.RI and CT-FFR were important predictors of PP.
