Practice teaching is an important link in the training of public health talents in colleges and universities. At present, there are still some problems in the education of public health and preventive medicine in the colleges and universities in China, such as attaching greater importance to theory than to practice and weak training of practical skills among students. In view of this situation, a public health practice teaching model of "internal-external interactions" has been constructed in Dalian Medical University with focuses on the following aspects: ①experiments in the university are optimized based on social needs; ②the practice base outside the university is expanded based on the teaching in the university; ③"internal-external interactions" are adopted to enhance practice training and improve post competence. The teaching practice shows that the implementation of the teaching model of "internal-external interactions" can help to improve practice teaching ability, promote the improvement in the training quality of public health talents, and meet the social demand for application-oriented professionals.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of enhanced CT-based radiomics for brain metastasis (BM) and selective use of prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) in limited-stage small cell lung cancer (LS-SCLC).Methods:Clinical data of 97 patients diagnosed with LS-SCLC confirmed by pathological and imaging examination in Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital from January 2012 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) Cox and Spearman correlation tests were used to select the radiomics features significantly associated with the incidence of BM and calculate the radiomics score. The calibration curve, the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC), 5-fold cross-validation, decision curve analysis (DCA), and integrated Brier score (IBS) were employed to evaluate the predictive power and clinical benefits of the radiomics score. Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test were adopted to draw survival curves and assess differences between two groups.Results:A total of 1272 radiomics features were extracted from enhanced CT. After the LASSO Cox regression and Spearman correlation tests, 8 radiomics features associated with the incidence of BM were used to calculate the radiomics score. The AUCs of radiomics scores to predict 1-year and 2-year BM were 0.845 (95% CI=0.746-0.943) and 0.878 (95% CI=0.774-0.983), respectively. The 5-fold cross validation, calibration curve, DCA and IBS also demonstrated that the radiomics model yielded good predictive performance and net clinical benefit. Patients were divided into the high-risk and low-risk cohorts based on the radiomics score. For patients at high risk, the 1-year and 2-year cumulative incidence rates of BM were 0% and 18.2% in the PCI group, and 61.8% and 75.4% in the non-PCI group, respectively ( P<0.001). In the PCI group, the 1-year and 2-year overall survival rates were 92.9% and 78.6%, and 85.3% and 36.8% in the non-PCI group, respectively ( P=0.023). For patients at low risk, the 1-year and 2-year cumulative incidence rates of BM were 0% and 0% in the PCI group, and 10.0% and 20.2% in the non-PCI group, respectively ( P=0.062). In the PCI group, the 1-year and 2-year overall survival rates were 100% and 77.0%, and 96.7% and 79.3% in the non-PCI group, respectively ( P=0.670). Conclusion:The radiomics model based on enhanced CT images yields excellent performance for predicting BM and individualized PCI.

Objective:To investigate the value of derived neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (dNLR) in predicting the prognosis of extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) patients treated with the first-line atezolizumab immunotherapy and chemotherapy.Methods:From the Project Data Sphere platform, the clinical data and laboratory test data of 53 ES-SCLC patients who received the first-line atezolizumab immunotherapy and chemotherapy in the global multicenter phase Ⅱ prospective study NCT03041311 from February 2017 to February 2022 were collected. The Contal-O'Quigley method was used to calculate the optimal cut-off value of baseline dNLR for determining the overall survival (OS) of patients. The dNLR higher than or equal to the optimal cut-off value was defined as high dNLR, and less than the optimal cut-off value was defined as low dNLR. According to optimal cut-off value, the dNLR levels at baseline and after 4 cycles of chemotherapy were determined, and dynamic dNLR grouping was performed (low risk: low dNLR at baseline and after 4 cycles of chemotherapy; intermediate risk: high dNLR at baseline or after 4 cycles of chemotherapy; high risk: high dNLR at baseline and after 4 cycles of chemotherapy). The differences in clinicopathological features between the baseline high dNLR group and low dNLR group were analyzed. Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw the OS and progression-free survival (PFS) curves, and log-rank test was used to compare the differences between the two groups. Univariate Cox proportional hazards model was used to analyze the influencing factors of OS and PFS. The time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of baseline dNLR grouping and dynamic dNLR grouping for 1-year OS rate in ES-SCLC patients receiving the first-line atezolizumab immunotherapy and chemotherapy.Results:Among the 53 patients, 34 (64.20%) were male and 19 (35.80%) were female; 27 (50.90%) were < 65 years old and 26 (49.10%) were ≥65 years old. The optimal cut-off value of baseline dNLR for determining the OS was 1.79. There were 17 cases in low dNLR group and 36 cases in high dNLR group at baseline. The proportion of patients with elevated serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in the baseline high dNLR group was higher than that in the baseline low dNLR group [58.33% (21/36) vs. 17.65% (3/17), χ2 = 7.72, P = 0.005]. The 1-year OS rates of the baseline high and low dNLR groups were 44.0% and 81.9%, and the 1-year PFS rates were 2.5% and 17.6%. The differences in OS and PFS between the two groups were statistically significant (both P < 0.05). There were 38 patients with complete dynamic dNLR data, including 9 cases of low-risk, 19 cases of medium-risk and 10 cases of high-risk, and the 1-year OS rates of the three groups were 90.0%, 67.5% and 33.3%, the difference in OS between the three groups was statistically significant ( P = 0.011). Univariate Cox regression analysis showed that baseline dNLR (low dNLR vs. high dNLR) was the influencing factor for OS of patients ( HR = 0.163, 95% CI 0.057-0.469, P = 0.001) and PFS ( HR = 0.505, 95% CI 0.268-0.952, P = 0.035). Time-dependent ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of baseline dNLR grouping and dynamic dNLR grouping for predicting 1-year OS rate of ES-SCLC patients receiving the first-line atezolizumab combined with chemotherapy was 0.674 (95% CI 0.575-0.887) and 0.731 (95% CI 0.529-0.765). Conclusions:Baseline and dynamic dNLR grouping may be effective markers for predicting the prognosis of ES-SCLC patients receiving the first-line atezolizumab immunotherapy and chemotherapy.

Objective:To explore the prognostic value of pretreatment albumin in extranodal nasal type NK/T cell lymphoma (ENKTL).Methods:The clinical data of 184 ENKTL patients in Shanxi Province Cancer Hospital from January 2002 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The Contal-O'Quigley change point method was used to determine the optimal cut-off value of albumin for predicting the prognosis of patients. The propensity score matching (PSM) was used to minimize selection biases. The Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis, and Cox proportional hazards model was used to determine the factors affecting survival. The time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curve, Akaike information criterion and integrated Brier score were used to evaluate the efficacy of international prognostic index (IPI), Korean prognostic index (KPI) and prognostic index of NK cell lymphoma (PINK) models incorporating albumin for predicting the prognosis of patients.Results:The optimal cut-off value of pretreatment albumin for predicting the prognosis of ENKTL patients was 37.5 g/L. The 3-year and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates in >37.5 g/L group (126 cases) were 66.2% and 60.3%, and the progression-free survival (PFS) rates were 58.8% and 49.6%; the 3-year and 5-year OS rates in ≤37.5 g/L group (58 cases) were 35.0% and 32.4%, and the PFS rates were 32.5% and 30.0%. The OS and PFS in > 37.5 g/L group were better than those in ≤37.5 g/L group (both P<0.001). After PSM, the OS and PFS in >37.5 g/L group were still better than those in ≤37.5 g/L group (both P = 0.002). Multivariate analysis showed that albumin was an independent influencing factor for OS ( RR = 0.419, 95% CI 0.266-0.660, P < 0.001) and PFS ( RR = 0.493, 95% CI 0.322-0.755, P < 0.001). After PSM, albumin was still an independent influencing factor for OS ( RR = 0.305, 95% CI 0.156-0.598, P = 0.001) and PFS ( RR = 0.341, 95% CI 0.185-0.627, P = 0.001). The prognostic prediction performance of the IPI, KPI and PINK models incorporating albumin were all improved. Conclusions:Pretreatment albumin is an important prognostic indicator for ENKTL.

AIM: To observe the clinical efficacy of antiplatelet therapy with ticagrelor monotherapy after short-term double antibody therapy in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS: A total of 172 patients with ACS who had undergone PCI from October 2018 to April 2022 in our hospital and Subei People's Hospital of Jiangsu Province were selected and divided into three groups according to the patients' medication status: 50 patients in group A (tegretol alone group); 62 patients in group B (aspirin enteric coated tablets + tegretol group); and 60 patients in group C (aspirin enteric coated tablets + clopidogrel hydrogen sulfate group). The patients were observed for postoperative recurrent angina pectoris, in-stent restenosis, revascularization, heart failure, and bleeding. RESULTS: There were no significant differences in postoperative recurrent angina, in-stent restenosis, re-hematologic reconstruction, heart failure, and bleeding between the 3 groups. CONCLUSION: There is no increase in ischemic events, heart failure in patients treated with tegretol antiplatelet therapy alone after a short course of dual antibiotics after PCI and it reduces risk of bleeding.

Objective:To describe a prospective study of pre-operative tumor-bed boost performed at the 1.5 T MR-Linac in combination with adjuvant whole breast irradiation, and a first case, with an accentuation on clinical feasibility and safety.Methods:A phase II, single arm study recruiting early stage patients follows a paradigm that first boosts the tumor bed and then undergoes breast conservative surgery in 2 weeks, and last irradiates the whole breast in 6 weeks. The primary endpoint is ≥ grade 2 acute breast toxicity. A 43 years old patient affected by a breast carcinoma, not special type of the right-sided lateral quadrant, staged cT 2N 0M 0, was planned and treated. The dose, 8 Gy for one time, was calculated by Monaco on CT simulation images. Both the air electron stream effect (ESE) and the electron return effect (ERE) at the presence of 1.5 T magnetic field were evaluated. During the pre-treatment evaluation, we carried out adaptation-to-position adjustment. Results:The normal organ dosimetry is within toleration. The Dmax to the skin, the chin and the right upper arm was 8.44 Gy, 28.5 cGy and 17.8 cGy, respectively. There was no increased toxicity from ERE and ESE, and the treatment was well tolerated without > grade 1 acute toxicity. The patient received breast conservative surgery on day 7 without delayed wound healing.Conclusions:This is the first case successfully treated within a clinical trial by pre-operative tumor-bed boost under 1.5 T MR-Linac in our institution. More participants are needed to validate and optimize the paradigm.

Objective:To investigate the influence of glucose regulatory protein 78 (GRP78) on prognosis and tumor cell proliferation of hepatocellular carcinoma.Methods:The experimental study and retrospective cohort study were conducted. Based on hepatocellular carcinoma tissue chip, in vitro culture of Huh7 and Hep3B hepatoma cells and LO2 normal hepatic cell, and combined with immunohistochemical staining, cell transfection, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), Western blot detection, cell proliferation experiments, cell clone formation experiments and high-throughput transcription histological analysis, the GRP78 expression in hepatoma cells was analyzed. Huh7 and Hep3B hepatoma cells being transfected with the GRP78 gene-specific shRNA lentiviruses or the negative control shRNA lentivirus were set as the GRP78 gene-specific shRNA lentivirus group and the negative control shRNA lentivirus group respectively. Observation indicators: (1) GRP78 expression in hepatocellular carcinoma tissue and adjacent tissue and its correlation with the clinicopathological characteristics of hepatocellular carcinoma patients; (2) analysis of factors affecting the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma patients; (3) effects of inhibiting of GRP78 expression on the proliferation of hepatoma cells; (4) effects of inhibiting of GRP78 expression on the gene and protein expression of p53, p21, CDK2, CDK4, and CDK6 in hepatoma cells; (5) effects of HA15 on the proliferation and the gene and protein expression of p53, p21, CDK2, CDK4, and CDK6 in hepatoma cells. Measurement data of the normal distribution were expressed as Mean± SD, and comparison of groups was conducted using the t test or ANOVA. Repeated measurement data were analyzed using repeated ANOVA. Count data were expressed as absolute numbers, and comparisons between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. COX proportional hazards regression model was used for univariate and multivariate analysis. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the survival time and draw survival curve, and the Log-rank test was used for generative analysis. Results:(1) GRP78 expression in hepatocellular carcinoma tissue and adjacent tissue and its correlation with the clinicopathological characteristics of hepatocellular carcinoma patients: results of immunohistochemical staining of hepatocellular carcinoma tissue chip showed that GRP78 was low-expressed in 53 cases and high-expressed in 37 cases of the 90 hepatocellular carcinoma tissues. GRP78 was low-expressed in 84 cases and high-expressed in 6 cases of the 90 paracancerous tissues.

Conclusions:High expression of GRP78 is an independent risk factor affecting the overall survival and disease progression-free survival of hepatocellular carcinoma patients. Inhibiting of GRP78 expression can reduce cell proliferation and the expression of p53, p21, CDK2, CDK4, and CDK6 mRNA and proteins in hepatoma cells.

Hair loss is a common problem encountered by both male and female in social life. A variety of systemic diseases, skin diseases, trauma, etc. can lead to hair loss, but androgenetic alopecia is its main cause. Hair loss can cause a series of influences, such as affecting one's self-esteem and emotional health. Healthy and beautiful hair is very important for a person's external image, and the external image can affect a person's work and life to some extent. Hair transplantation surgery has gradually evolved, and its surgical effect is remarkable. However, hair transplantation technology is still not perfect and still faces many challenges, including the supply of hair, the survival rate of the hair, the length of the operation and the concealment of marks after the operation. In this paper, the current status of hair transplant surgery and some important challenges and possible solutions were discussed.

Objective To investigate the effect of axial load test in Taylor spatial frame treatment of external fixation for tibia and fibula fractures.Methods A retrospective case-control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 36 patients with open fracture of tibia and fibula admitted to Tianjin Hospital from March 2015 to June 2017.There were 22 males and 14 females,aged 21-71 years[(46.1±14.2)years].All patients received Taylor spatial frame external fixation for tibia and fibula fracture within 1 week after injury.After operation,18 patients received axial load test(experiment group),and the other 18 did not(control group).When the value of axial load test was less than 5% in experiment group,the Taylor spatial frame was removed.The control group used traditional method to remove the Taylor spatial frame.Comparisons were made between the two groups in terms of treatment duration,total cost,re-fracture after Taylor spatial frame removal and incidence of stent-tract infection.Results All patients were followed up for 3-14 months with an average of 8.6 months.Compared with control group,the treatment duration[(36.17±11 .44)weeks vs.(44.50±9.16)weeks]and total cost[(93.7±7.9)thousand yuan vs.(120.1±10.6)thousand yuan]of experiment group were significantly lower(P＜0.05).In the experiment group,there was 0 patient with re-fracture and two patients with stent-tract infection,with the complication incidence of 11%,while there were two patients with re-fracture and three patients with stent-tract infection,with the complication incidence of 28% in the control group(P＞0.05).Conclusions After Taylor spatial frame external fixation for tibia and fibula fractures,regular axial load test can safely and timely guide the removal of Taylor spatial frame.It can reduce the treatment duration and cost compared with the traditional removal method,being safe and reliable.
