Objective:To systematically evaluate the bias risk and applicability of short-term mortality risk prediction models within 30 days after stroke, providing a basis for selecting or developing standardized risk prediction models.Methods:Research on short-term mortality risk prediction models within 30 days after stroke was electronically retrieved from China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, VIP, and China Biomedical Database, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library and CINAHL. The search period was from database establishment to December 5, 2023. Two researchers independently conducted literature screening and quality evaluation.Results:Twelve studies were included, and a total of 31 models were internally validated, with 7 models undergoing external validation based on internal validation. 26 models reported discriminative power, and 18 models reported calibration methods. The most frequent predictors of modeling were age, hypertension, atrial fibrillation, diabetes and admission Glasgow Coma Scale score. Due to methodological problems such as insufficient sample size, improper handling of missing variables, and inadequate reporting of modeling information, all included studies were rated as high risk of bias.Conclusions:The research on short-term mortality risk prediction models for stroke patients is still in the development stage. Although it has good applicability, the risk of bias is relatively high. Future research should be designed and reported based on prediction model risk of bias assessment tool (PROBAST) and transparent reporting of a multivariable prediction model for individual prognosis or diagnosis (TRIPOD) to avoid common problems summarized in this study and reduce the risk of bias.

Objective:To explore the stimulation conditions,optimal culture time and infection time of C57BL/6J mice CD3+T cells in vitro,so as to improve the infection efficiency of CD 19 chimeric antigen receptor T cells(mCD19 CAR-T).Methods:Purified C57BL/6J mice CD3+T cells were cultured in anti-CD3/CD28 coated,anti-CD3 coated+soluble anti-CD28 and anti-CD3 coated,respectively.The cells were stimulated in above three conditions for 12 h and 24 h,following with 24 h,48 h and 72 h incubation and then the number of cell clones was recorded.C57BL/6J mice CD3+T cells were stimulated for 12 h,24 h,and 36 h under the above three conditions,then interleukin(IL)-2(100 U/ml)was added.The number of cell clones was recorded under microscope at 24 h,48 h,and 72 h of culture.After 24 h of stimulation,CD3+T cells derived from C57BL/6J mice were infected with retrovirus for 48 h to establish mCD19 CAR-T cells,and the percentage of GFP+CAR-T cells was detected by flow cytometry.Results:The infection efficiency of mCD19 CAR-T cells derived from C57BL/6J mice was only 5.23％under the optimized conditions of mCD19 CAR-T cells derived from BALB/c mice.The number of clones of C57BL/6J mice CD3+T cells was the highest in anti-CD3 coated+soluble anti-CD28 group after stimulated for 24 h and followed cultured for 48 h.After 24 hours of stimulation under the above conditions and 48 hours of culture with IL-2,the number of T cell proliferating clones in the anti-CD3 coated+soluble anti-CD28 group was significantly increased compared with the same group without IL-2,and the infection efficiency of CAR-T cells in this group reached 17.63％±4.17％.Conclusion:The optimal conditions for constructing CAR-T cells from C57BL/6J mice CD3+T cells are different from those of BABL/c mice.T cells stimulated by anti-CD3 coated+soluble anti-CD28+IL-2 can obtain mCD19 CAR-T cells with the highest efficiency after retrovirus infection.

Aim To investigate the mechanism of py-roptosis mediated by the NLRP3/caspase-1/GSDMD signaling pathway and the intervention effect of Radix Angelica Sinensis and Radix Astragalus ultrafiltration extract(RAS-RA)in radiation-induced pulmonary fi-brosis.Methods Fifty Wistar rats were randomly di-vided into five groups,with ten rats in each group.Ex-cept for the blank control group,all other groups of rats were anesthetized and received a single dose of 40 Gy X-ray local chest radiation to establish a radiation-in-duced pulmonary fibrosis rat model.After radiation,the rats in the RAS-RA intervention groups were orally administered doses of 0.12,0.24 and 0.48 g·kg-1 once a day for 30 days.The average weight and lung index of the rats were observed after 30 days of contin-uous administration.Hydroxyproline(HYP)content in lung tissue was determined by hydrolysis method.The levels of IL-18 and IL-1 β in serum were detected by ELISA.Lung tissue pathological changes were ob-served by HE and Masson staining.Ultrastructural changes in lung tissue were observed by transmission e-lectron microscopy.The expression levels of NLRP3/caspase-1/GSDMD pyroptosis pathway-related proteins and fibrosis-related proteins in lung tissue were detec-ted by Western blot.Results Compared with the blank group,the HYP content in lung tissue and the levels of IL-18 and IL-1 β in serum significantly in-creased in the model group(P＜0.01).HE and Mas-son staining showed inflammatory cell infiltration and collagen fiber deposition.Transmission electron mi-croscopy revealed increased damaged mitochondria,disordered arrangement,irregular morphology,shallow matrix,outer membrane rupture,mostly fractured and shortened cristae,mild expansion,increased electron density of individual mitochondrial matrix,mild sparse structure of lamellar bodies,partial disorder,unclear organelles,and characteristic changes of pyroptosis.Western blot analysis showed increased expression of caspase-1,GSDMD,NLRP3,CoL-Ⅰ,α-SMA,and CoL-Ⅲ proteins(P＜0.01).Compared with the model group,the RAS-RA intervention group showed signifi-cant improvement in body mass index and lung index of rats,decreased levels of IL-18 and IL-1 β inflammatory factors(P＜0.01),improved mitochondrial structure,reduced degree of fibrosis,and decreased expression of caspase-1,GSDMD,NLRP3,COL-Ⅰ,COL-Ⅲ,and α-SMA proteins in lung tissue(P＜0.01).Conclusion RAS-RA has an inhibitory effect on radiation-in-duced pulmonary fibrosis,and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of pyroptosis through the regu-lation of the NLRP3/caspase-1/GSDMD signaling pathway.

Aim To study the effect of G protein-coupled estrogen receptor(GPER)inhibitor G15 on the sensitivity of breast cancer tamoxifen-resistant cells to T-47DTR. Methods Experiments were carried out with 4-hydroxytamoxifen(4-OHT),the active form of tamoxifen in vivo. The sensitivity of tamoxifen-resistant breast cancer cell line T-47DTR and its parental cell line T-47D to tamoxifen was detected by MTT assay; the expression of GPER protein was analyzed by plasma separation of inhibitor G15; the effect of 4-OHT combined with G15 on the apoptosis of T-47DTR cells was analyzed by flow cytometry AnnexinV-FITC/PI double staining; the expression levels of apoptosis-related proteins Bax,Bcl-2,caspase-3,cleaved caspase-3,caspase-9,cleaved caspase-9 were analysed by Western blot. Results(1)Compared with the parental cell T-47D,the resistance of T-47DTR-resistant cells to 4-OHT was significantly enhanced.(2)When 4-OHT(2 μmol·L-1)was administered,the membrane distribution of GPER increased,indicating that GPER was activated in T-47DTR-resistant cells compared with the control group; Compared with OHT,the use of G15(5 μmol·L-1)and OHT significantly reduced the expression of GPER.(3)GPER inhibitor G15 could increase the apoptotic rate of T-47DTR-resistant cells while down-regulating the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 and up-regulating the expression of pro-apoptotic proteins Bax,cleaved caspase-3,cleaved caspase-9. Conclusions The GPER inhibitor G15 increases the apoptosis of T-47DTR cells and restores the sensitivity of drug-resistant cells to tamoxifen.

[Abstract] ObjectVisualizing the superficial cerebellar vein and its tributaries on suscepxibility weighted imaging (SWI), and to construct superficial cerebellar vein network. Methods According to the inclusion criteria, 80 healthy volunteers (40 males and 40 females) were selected for 3. 0 T MRI scans to obtain conventional sequence cross-section, sagittal tomographic images, and SWI image data. Post-processing was performed on the Extended MR workspace 2. 6. 3. 4 image workstation to reconstruct minimum intensity projection(mIP) images. SPSS 21. 0 statistical software was used to analyze and process each data, and the diameter measurement result were expressed as mean ± standard deviation. Results Both SWI and mIP could image the structures of the cerebellum and its veins. The cerebellar veins were divided into deep and superficial parts. The superficial cerebellar veins were divided into two groups: the vermis and the cerebellar hemispheres. The superficial vein of the cerebellar vermis consisted of superior vermis vein [diameter: (1. 21±0. 24)mm, occurrence rate: 92. 16%], summit vein [ diameter: (0. 66 ± 0. 05) mm, occurrence rate: 95%], mountain vein [diameter: (0. 76±0. 03)mm, occurrence rate: 100%], inferior vermis vein [diameter: (1. 40±0. 27)mm, occurrence rate: 99. 02%]. The superficial cerebellar hemisphere vein consists of anterior superior cerebellar vein [diameter: (1. 09± 0. 12)mm, occurrence rate: 100%], posterior superior cerebellar vein [diameter: (0. 88±0. 13) mm, occurrence rate: 70%], anterior inferior cerebellar vein [ diameter: (1. 34 ± 0. 15) mm, occurrence rate: 100%], posterior inferior cerebellar vein [ diameter: (1. 11 ± 0. 09) mm, occurrence rate: 92. 5%]. The deep veins were divided into cerebellomesencephalic fissure group, cerebellopontine fissure group, and cerebellomedullary fissure group. Conclusion SWI can display the microstructure and venules of the cerebellum, and can construct a network of superficial cerebellar veins.

Objective: To explore the efficacy of adjuvant programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) monoclonal antibody immunotherapy in Chinese patients with resected stage Ⅱ-Ⅲ melanoma. Methods: A total of 296 patients who underwent radical surgery for stage Ⅱ-Ⅲ cutaneous orlimb melanoma at Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center and Shanghai Electric Power Hospital between 2017 and 2021 and received adjuvant PD-1 monoclonal antibody immunotherapy, low-dose interferon (IFN), or observational follow-up were enrolled in this study. Patients were divided into the PD-1 monoclonal antibody group (164 cases) and the IFN or observation group (IFN/OBS group, 132 cases) based on postoperative adjuvant treatment methods. Patients' disease recurrence and survival were observed. Results: Among the 296 patients, 77 had cutaneous melanoma and 219 had limb melanoma; 110 were stage Ⅱ and 186 were stage Ⅲ. Among stage Ⅱ patients, the median recurrence-free survival (RFS) in the PD-1 monoclonal antibody group (46 cases) did not reach, while the median RFS in the IFN/OBS group (64 cases) was 36 months. The 1-year RFS rates were 85.3% and 92.1% and the 2-year RFS rates were 71.9% and 63.7% in the PD-1 monoclonal antibody group and the IFN/OBS group, respectively, with no statistically significant difference (P=0.394). Among stage Ⅲ patients, the median RFS rates in the PD-1 monoclonal antibody group (118 cases) and the IFN/OBS group (68 cases) were 23 and 13 months, respectively. The 1-year RFS rates were 70.0% and 51.8% and the 2-year RFS rates were 51.8% and 35.1%in the PD-1 monoclonal antibody group and the IFN/OBS group, respectively, with a statistically significant difference (P=0.010). Stratified analysis showed that the advantage of PD-1 monoclonal antibody adjuvant therapy in improving RFS persisted in the subgroups of primary ulceration (HR=0.558, 95% CI: 0.348-0.893), lymph node macroscopic metastasis (HR=0.486, 95% CI: 0.285-0.828), stage ⅢC (HR=0.389, 95% CI: 0.24-0.63), and the subgroup without BRAF/c-Kit/NRAS gene mutations (HR=0.347, 95% CI: 0.171-0.706). In terms of recurrence patterns, in stage Ⅱ patients, the recurrence and metastasis rate was 15.2% (7/46) in the PD-1 monoclonal antibody group, significantly lower than the IFN/OBS group [43.8% (28/64), P=0.002]. In stage Ⅲ melanoma patients, the recurrence and metastasis rate was 42.4% (50/118) in the PD-1 monoclonal antibody group, also lower than the IFN/OBS group [63.2% (43/68), P=0.006]. Conclusions: In real-world settings, compared with patients receiving low-dose IFN adjuvant therapy or observational follow-up, PD-1 monoclonal antibody immunotherapy can reduce the recurrence and metastasis rate of cutaneous and limb melanoma, and prolong the postoperative RFS of stage Ⅲ cutaneous and limb melanoma patients. Patients with a heavier tumor burden benefit more from immunotherapy.
