Objective:To develop a prototype artificial intelligence immunofluorescence image recognition system for classification of antinuclear antibodies in order to meet the growing clinical requirements for an automatic readout and classification of immunof luorescence patterns for antinuclear antibody (ANA) images.Methods:Immunofluorescence images with positive results of ANA in Xinhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from April 2020 to December 2021 were collected. Three senior technicians independently and in parallel interpreted the Immunofluorescence images to determine the ANA results. Then the images were labeled according to the ANA International Consensus on Fluorescence Patterns (ICAP) classification criteria. There were 7 labeled groups: Fine speckled, Coarse speckled, Homogeneous, nucleolar, Centromere, Nuclear dots and Nuclear envelope. Each group was randomly divided into training dataset and validation dataset at a ratio of 9∶1 by using random number table. On the deep learning framework PyTORCH 1.7, the convolutional neural network (CNN) training platform was constructed based on ResNet-34 image classification network, and the automatic ANA recognition system was established. After the model was established, the test set was set up separately, the judgment results of the model were output by ranking the prediction probability, with the results of the 2 senior technicians was taken as "golden standard". Parameters such as accuracy, precision, recall and F1-score were used as indicators to evaluate the performance of the model.Results:A total of 23138 immunofluorescence images were obtained after segmentation and annotation. A total of 7 models were trained, and the effects of different algorithms, image processing and enhancement methods on the model were compared. The ResNet-34 model with the highest accuracy andswas selected as the final model, with the classification accuracy of 93.31%, precision rate of 91%, and recall rate of 90% and F1-score of 91% in the test set. The overall coincidence rate between the model and manual interpretation was 90.05%, and the accuracy of recognition of nucleolus was the highest, with the coincidence rate reaching 100% in the test set.Conclusion:The current AI system developed based on deep learning of the ANA immunofluorescence images in the present study showed the ability to recognize ANA pattern, especially in the common, typical, simple pattern.

Objective To investigate the endocytosis and exocytosis of soluble uranium in human kidney proximal tubular epithelial (HK-2) cells and the cytotoxicity after uranium exposure. Methods Cell Counting Kit-8 assay was used to determine the cell viability after different concentrations of uranium exposure, and optical microscopy and transmission electron microscopy were used to observe the changes in cells after uranium exposure. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry was used to monitor the endocytosis and exocytosis of uranium over time by cells. Flow cytometry was used to assess the changes in cell cycle and apoptosis after uranium exposure. Results After uranium exposure, HK-2 cells showed dose-dependent damage; cell cycle was arrested in G1 phase; cell apoptosis and necrosis occurred; cell proliferation was inhibited. The content of endocytic uranium increased gradually within 24 h, and there was a threshold for uranium endocytosis, while the fraction of uranium binding to cell surface was low (< 0.2%). Over 40% of the endocytic uranium would be exocytosed within 1 h. Uranium could form needle-like precipitates in both intracellular and extracellular areas after uranium exposure. Conclusion After uranium exposure, cells show decreased viability, cell cycle arrest, and cell apoptosis. The process of endocytosis and exocytosis of soluble uranium is very rapid. HK-2 cells can convert soluble uranium into non-toxic precipitates.

Objective: To explore the relationship between group risk perception, self efficacy and attitudes among college students, and its associations with individual prevention and control behaviors regarding COVID 19 pandemic. Methods: From October to November 2021, data were collected among 4 092 undergraduate students from eight colleges and universities in Anhui Province,using a multi stage stratified cluster sampling method. A t test and analysis of variance were performed for comparison between groups, while multiple linear regression was employed to investigate group risk perception, self efficacy and attitudes among college students in terms of individual COVID 19 prevention and control measures. Results: The total scores of group emotional risk perception (ARP), cognitive risk perception (CRP), distance perception (DIP) and self efficacy were (19.72±4.01)(14.56±3.64)(18.04±5.33) and (27.27±6.74), respectively. The total score of attitudes and beliefs was (26.15±4.54), while individual prevention and control behavior was (25.67±4.45). Emotional risk perception ( β=0.16 ), cognitive risk perception ( β=0.08 ), attitudes ( β=0.23 ) and self efficacy ( β=0.13 ) were positively correlated with individual prevention and control behaviors of college students( P <0.05). However, distance risk perception had no significant effect ( P >0.05). Conclusion Risk perception, self efficacy and attitude of college students are correlated with individual COVID 19 prevention and control behaviors. Therefore, colleges and universities should strengthen general self efficacy and attitude,and improve risk awareness towards COVID 19 among college students, and promote the effective prevention and control of campus epidemic.

Objective: To explore the role of rejection sensitivity in the relationship between the psychological resilience and social adaptability of college students with left behind experience, so as to provide reference for college students to beffer adapt to the society. Methods: Self designed questionnaire, the Conor Davidson Resilience Scale(CD-RISC), the Chinese College Students Adaptation Scale(CCSAS), and the Rejection Sensitivity Questionnaire (RSQ) were administered among 3 418 college students from four universities in Anhui Province with the stratified cluster sampling method. This research investigation used AMOS version 21.0 to construct a structural equation model of rejection sensitivity, psychological resilience, and social adaptability, to analyze the mediation effect. Results: There were 1 324 college students with lefe behind experience. Compared with college students without left behind experience[(64.47±13.79)(197.90±25.57)(10.86±2.98)], students with left behind experience exhibited lower levels of psychological resilience, social adaptability, and rejection sensitivity[(63.26±13.69)(195.14±24.60)(10.45±2.91)](t=-2.50, -3.12, -3.87, P<0.05); Rejection sensitivity was negatively associated with social adaptability, and psychological resilience among college students with left behind experience(r=-0.24, -0.22, P<0.01), while social adaptability was positively correlated with psychological resilience(r=0.64, P<0.01). The results of the mediation model showed that psychological resilience affected the mediation path of social adaptability by rejection sensitivity (mediation effect value=0.02, 95%CI=0.01-0.05, P<0.05). Conclusion Left behind experience had a negative impact on the psychological resilience and social adaptability of undergraduates. With respect to the psychological resilience of undergraduates with left behind experience, rejection sensitivity played a mediating role in the social adaptability relationship.

Objective: This study explored the relationships among psychological stress, achievement motivation and psychological capital in college students to provide a reference for improving the level of psychological capital in college students. Methods: A multi stage stratified cluster sampling method was used to select 9 940 college students from ten universities in Anhui Province. The achievement motivation scale (AMS), psychological stress scale (SRQ-20) and psychological capital scale (PPQ) were applied. The moderating effect of the questionnaire was analyzed with χ 2 tests, Spearman rank correlation and stratified regression. Results: Statistical differences were found in psychological stress according to major, whether students leader, family economic status and whether students had left behind experience ( χ 2=15.50, 10.25, 28.61, 25.55, P <0.05). The rank correlation results indicated that psychological stress was negatively correlated with the pursuit of success ( r =-0.27) and four dimensions of self efficacy,optimism,hope and resilence in psychological capital ( r =-0.43, -0.41,-0.36,-0.45)( P <0.05), and was positively correlated with the avoidance of failure ( r =0.25, P <0.05). The stratified regression model indicated that psychological stress in the dimensions of college students achievement motivation (pursuit of success: β =0.02, Δ R 2=0.01, P <0.01; failure avoidance: β = 0.03 , Δ R 2=0.01, P <0.01) played a moderating role in the relationship between psychological capital and psychological capital. Conclusion Being female, senior students, low household economic status, and left behind experience are associated with more psychological stress among college students. Psychological stress is correlated with achievement motivation and psychological capital, and has a moderating effect on the relationship between achievement motivation and psychological capital.

Objective:To examine the safety and effectiveness of a novel stent assisted intestinal bypass for preventing anastomotic leakage in laparoscopic assisted radical resection of rectal cancer.Methods:The clinical data of 9 patients with rectal cancer who underwent laparoscopic radical resection and stent assisted intestinal bypass from September 2019 to June 2020 at the Department of Anus & Intestine Surgery, Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, School of Medicine, Zhejiang University were retrospectively analyzed. There were 6 males and 3 females, aged (62.1±6.8) years (range: 53 to 75 years), underwent laparoscopic assisted radical resection of rectal cancer and stent assisted intestinal bypass. A degradable diverting stent was placed at the end of the ileum, and a drainage tube was placed at the proximal end of the stent to bypass the intestinal contents. After operation, the patients were given a diet with less residue. From the 14 th day after operation, abdomen X-ray films were taken every 5 to 7 days to observe the destination of the stent dynamically. When the stent was observed to be disintegrated into pieces, the drainage tube was clamped for 3 days to observe any side effects before the tube was removed. The operation time, the time of removing the bypass tube and the total hospital stay were recorded. Results:Laparoscopic assisted radical resection of rectal cancer and stent assisted intestinal bypass were successfully performed in all patients. The operation time was (230.4±48.0) minutes (range: 150 to 318 minutes), and the time of removing shunt tube was (28.8±4.6) days (range: 22 to 34 days). The duration of hospitalization was (21.0±8.6) days (range: 9 to 34 days). Postoperative pathological examination showed 7 cases of moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma, 1 case of moderately well differentiated adenocarcinoma and 1 case of mucinous adenocarcinoma. There were 2 cases of T1, 4 cases of T2 and 3 cases of T3. The number of lymph node dissection was 13.4±3.5 (range: 6 to 18), 3 cases were positive and 6 cases were negative. The post-operation follow-up time was 6 to 16 months, no anastomotic leakage or stenosis was found.Conclusion:Stent assisted intestinal bypass for the prevention of anastomotic leakage in laparoscopic assisted radical resection of rectal cancer is safe and feasible, and shows good short-term effect.

Objectives:To examine the efficacy of terminal branches portal vein embolization(TBPVE) for the increment of FLR in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients and to introduce its clinical value with transcatheter chemoembolization(TACE) in the treatment of HCC patients without surgery.Methods:One hundred and fifty HCC patients from three clinical centers of china underwent TBPVE technique from December 2016 to May 2021,including 89 males and 61 females. The average age was 51.9 years(range:18 to 79 years).One hundred and one patients were diagnosed with a background of HBV infection,including 27 patients with portal venous hypertension.TACE was performed simultaneously with TBPVE in 102 patients.Fifty-three patients underwent hepatectomy,who were subdivided into HBV positive and HBV negative groups,with TACE and without TACE groups to analyze the increment of future liver remnant (FLR), complications and survival data.These data were also analyzed in other 97 patients without hepatectomy.Results:All the patients reached adequate FLR successfully in 14 days after TBPVE including patients with portal venous hypertension.The average increment rates of FLR was 56.2% in 7 days and 57.8% in 14 days after TBPVE. There was no significant difference neither between HBV positive and HBV negative groups(7 days:(55.0±27.3)% vs.(57.8±20.9)%, t=0.885, P=0.373; 14 days:(57.3±24.6)% vs.(58.3±23.7)%; t=0.801, P=0.447),or between with TACE and without TACE groups(7 days:(62.3±26.3)% vs. (48.8±20.6)%; t=1.788, P=0.077;14 days:(64.4±25.0)% vs.(55.2±23.1)%; t=1.097, P=0.257).The morbidity and mortality rates were 20.8% and 1.9% in patients with hepatectomy.The 1-,3-year overall survival(OS) and disease-free(DFS) rates were 87.5%,64.5% and 64.7%,40.6% for patients underwent surgery.There was no significant difference of 1-,3-year OS and DFS between HBV positive and negative groups,but there were different between TACE and without TACE groups.The 1-,3-year OS for patients underwent TBPVE and TACE but without surgery were 80.1%, 53.7%. Conclusion:TBPVE is a good alternative technique for modulation of FLR for staged hepatectomy even in HBV positive HCC patients and can be applied with TACE procedure simultaneously as an option treatment for patients with no intend to surgery.
