Objective:To investigate the diagnostic performance of continuous-time random-walk (CTRW) diffusion model combined with vesical imaging-reporting and data system (VI-RADS) in the diagnosis of muscle invasion of bladder cancer.Methods:In this case-control study, 64 patients with pathologically confirmed bladder urothelial carcinoma in Peking University First Hospital were retrospectively enrolled from August 2022 to March 2023. The patients were divided into the muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) group and the nonmuscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) group (29 cases and 35 cases, respectively) according to the pathological results. All patients underwent bladder MRI within 4 weeks before surgery, including T 2WI, conventional diffusion weighted imaging (DWI), and multi-b-value DWI. The CTRW model was used to obtain three quantitative diffusion parameters, including D m (an anomalous diffusion coefficient), α (related to temporal diffusion heterogeneity), and β (related to spatial diffusion heterogeneity). The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) was calculated using a mono-exponential model. The VI-RADS scores were evaluated based on T 2WI and conventional DWI. The Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare the diffusion parameters between the MIBC group and the NMIBC group. The combination of the parameters was investigated with logistic regression analysis. The diagnostic performance for muscle invasion of bladder cancer was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic analysis and the area under the curve (AUC). The difference between AUC was compared using the DeLong test. Results:There were statistically significant differences in ADC, D m, and α between the MIBC group and the NMIBC group ( Z=-2.31, -2.91, -3.97, P=0.021, 0.004,<0.001). No significant difference was found in β between the two groups ( Z=1.69, P=0.091). The AUC (95% CI) of D m and α for diagnosing MIBC were 0.712 (0.587-0.838) and 0.790 (0.676-0.904) respectively, both of which were higher than that of ADC (AUC 0.669, 95% CI 0.537-0.801) with statistically significant differences ( Z=2.86, 2.27, P=0.004, 0.023). The AUC (95% CI) of CTRW (D m+α) was 0.782 (0.661-0.876), which was significantly higher than that of ADC ( Z=2.35, P=0.019). The AUC (95% CI) of VI-RADS score and VI-RADS combined with CTRW parameter (VI-RADS+D m+α) were 0.823 (0.716-0.930) and 0.900 (0.799-0.961) respectively, with a statistically significant difference between them ( Z=2.16, P=0.031). Conclusion:The D m and α parameters in the CTRW diffusion model show better performance than the ADC in the mono-exponential model for muscle-invasive evaluation of bladder cancer, and the CTRW diffusion model can enhance the diagnostic performance of VI-RADS.

AIM: To explore the clinical effect of small incision lenticule extraction(SMILE)on the treatment of myopic anisometropia.METHODS: Clinical data of 76 patients(146 eyes)with myopic anisometropia who received SMILE or femtosecond assisted laser in situ keratomileusis(FS-LASIK)in our hospital from January 2021 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into SMILE group(39 cases, 77 eyes)and FS-LASIK group(37 cases, 69 eyes)according to surgical methods. Uncorrected visual acuity(UCVA), diopter, anisometropia, corneal aberration and occurrence of postoperative complications were compared between the two groups at 1 wk, 1 and 3 mo after surgery.RESULTS: The UCVA of the two groups was improved after surgery compared with that before surgery, and the coma, trefoil, spherical aberration and total higher-order aberration were significantly increased compared to those before surgery(P<0.05), and the coma, trefoil, spherical aberration and total higher-order aberration in the FS-LASIK group were significantly higher than those in the SMILE group(P<0.05). After follow-up to 3 mo after surgery, the incidence of postoperative complications was significantly lower in the SMILE group than that in the FS-LASIK group(5.2% vs 15.9%, P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Both SMILE and FS-LASIK can effectively enhance the UCVA and improve the visual quality in patients with myopic anisometropia, but SMILE has lower corneal higher order aberrations, lower incidence of postoperative complications and better overall effect.

AIM: To compare the clinical effect of small incision lenticule extraction(SMILE)and implantable collamer lens(ICL)implantation on efficacy, safety and visual quality in patients with high myopia complicated with low astigmatism.METHODS: Retrospective study. A total of 80 cases(159 eyes)of high myopia and low astigmatism treated in the hospital from January 2021 to January 2022 were included, and they were divided into 46 cases(91 eyes)in SMILE group and 34 cases(68 eyes)in ICL implantation group by means of different surgical methods. The spherical equivalent, uncorrected visual acuity(UCVA), best corrected visual acuity(BCVA), higher order aberrations of cornea and optical quality index, effectiveness and safety index were compared between the two groups before surgery and at 3 and 6 mo after surgery, and the surgical complications were counted.RESULTS: The spherical equivalent, UCVA and BCVA of both groups were all improved at 6 mo postoperatively(all P<0.05). At 6 mo after surgery, there were no differences in UCVA, BCVA, spherical equivalent, effectiveness and safety index between both groups(all P>0.05). The root mean square values of total higher order aberration, spherical aberration, coma, vertical coma and horizontal coma in the SMILE group were higher than those in the ICL implantation group, and Strehl ratio(SR)in the ICL implantation group was higher than that in the SMILE group at 3 and 6 mo after surgery(all P<0.05). CONCLUSION: SMILE and ICL implantation have good surgical efficacy in the treatment of patients with high myopia and low astigmatism, and both methods can achieve good postoperative visual acuity and objective visual quality. Furthermore, the ICL implantation has better postoperative visual quality than SMILE.

ObjectiveTo establish a method using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) for the detection of six common trichothecene toxins in oats. MethodsOats were selected as the research subject in this study. Response surface design was used to optimize the QuEChERS extraction method. Additionally, a rapid and efficient strategy for sample extraction and purification was developed. Combined with UHPLC-MS/MS, six commonly co-occurring trichothecene toxins in oats were quantitatively analyzed simultaneously. ResultsThis method demonstrated good analytical performance for each analyte across the corresponding concentration ranges (r>0.99), with accuracy ranging from 87.26% to 99.64%. The inter-day and intra-day relative standard deviations were less than 6.8% and 5.5%, respectively, indicating its potential for practical application. This method was used to detect mycotoxins in 12 oat samples from China, and it was found that one sample exceeded the standard limits for deoxynivalenol (DON), and the co-contamination of trichothecene toxin was prevalent. ConclusionThe risk posed by these toxins has been underestimated. Ongoing, extensive monitoring is necessary to provide contamination data to assess the consumer risk.

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) transmitted drug resistance (TDR) means the infection of HIV drug-resistant strains, which are detected in patients without a history of exposure to antiretroviral (ARV) drugs. TDR has the potential to reverse the effectiveness of first-line antiretroviral therapy, pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), and post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP), and is the practical major threat to the realization of the targets for HIV prevention and control. The changes in fitness of HIV DR strains are the basic biological factor challenging the risk of its transmission, and related to the selection of the survey population, the determination of the time span between diagnosis of HIV infection and testing of DR, and the application of DR test assay. The integrated definition and interpretation of surveillance drug resistance mutations (SDRMs) is the key to obtaining accurate surveillance results. This article reviews the recent progress in research on the fitness of HIV DR strains, identification of SDRMs, and the selection of surveillance population. It also proposes key areas for TDR monitoring in China, including the development of SDRMs list tailored to the characteristics of Chinese strains, high-resolution sequencing to accurately identify mixed base pairs, and the standardization of TDR monitoring. These efforts will provide scientific support for accurate TDR monitoring results and effective containment of the transmission of drug-resistant strains.

Objective:To investigate the role and related mechanisms of the LiaSR two-component system in acid tolerance and biofilm formation abilities of Streptococcus mutans (Sm) 593. Methods:The growth curves of various Sm strains in pH=5.5 brian heart infusion (BHI) medium were analyzed. And colony forming unit (CFU) was also performed to evaluate the acid tolerance of Sm. Laurdan probe, H +-K +adenosine triphosphate (ATP)ase activity analysis kit, proton permeability assay and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) were conducted to detect the acid tolerant mechanisms of LiaSR two-component system in Sm. Crystal violet staining, CFU, SYTOX probe and anthrone-sulfuric method were used to analyze the properties and structures of the Sm biofilms. RT-qPCR was conducted to detect the expression levels of underlying regulated genes. Results:The growth of mutants in acidic BHI were inhibited ( P<0.05). The acid tolerance of mutants significantly decreased compared to the wild-type strain ( P<0.05). In mutants, the activity of H +-ATPase (917.06±59.53 and 469.53±47.65) were elevated by 7.22-folds and 3.70-folds compared to the wild-type strain (127.00±50.71) ( P<0.001, P<0.001) and the encoded gene atpD (3.39±0.21 and 1.94±0.17) were also elevated by 3.39-folds and 1.94-folds compared to the wild-type strain (1.00±0.15) ( P<0.001, P=0.001). The Laurdan generalized polarization of mutants (0.18±0.04 and 0.18±0.05) increased significantly compared to the wild-type strain (0.08±0.05) ( P=0.006, P=0.003) and the expression levels of fabM gene were decreased in mutants (0.52±0.11 and 0.57±0.05) by 1/2 ( P=0.014, P=0.022). In liaR deletion mutant, the reduced terminal pH (4.76±0.01) can also be observed ( P<0.001). The total amount of the biofilms of three Sm didn't show significant differences ( P>0.05). But the number of viable bacteria of mutants′ biofilms were decreased [Sm 593: (12.00±2.80)×10 7 CFU/ml; Sm ΔliaS: (2.95±1.13)×10 7 CFU/ml; Sm ΔliaR: (7.25±1.60)×10 7 CFU/ml] ( P=0.001, P=0.024). The extracellular DNA were increased by 18.00-folds and 6.50-folds in mutants′ biofilms (128.73±15.65 and 46.38±5.52) compared to the wild-type strain (7.16±3.62) ( P<0.001, P=0.003). Water-soluble exopolysaccharides could be found up-regulated in liaS deletion mutant [(138.73±10.12) μg/ml] ( P=0.003) along with the expression level of gtfC gene (1.65±0.39) ( P=0.014). The expression level of gtfD were elevated by 47.43-folds and 16.90-folds in mutants ( P<0.001, P=0.010). Conclusions:The LiaSR two-component system can promote the expression of fabM gene and increase the fluidity of Sm which contributes to acid tolerance. The LiaR can also decrease the proton permeability and restrict the entrance of H +. The LiaSR two-component system can negatively regulate the production of the extracellular matrix in Sm biofilm.
