Data analysis models may assist the transmission of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） experience and clinical diagnosis and treatment， and the possibility of constructing a “data-knowledge” dual-drive model was explored by taking gastric precancerous state as an example. Data-driven is to make clinical decisions around data analysis， and its syndrome-differentiation decision-making research relies on hidden structural models and partially observable Markov decision-making processes to identify the etiology of diseases， syndrome elements， evolution of pathogenesis， and syndrome differentiation protocols； knowledge-driven is to make use of data and information to promote decision-making and action processes， and its syndrome-differentiation decision-making research relies on convolutional neural networks to improve the accuracy of local disease identification and syndrome differentiation. The “data-knowledge” dual-driven model can make up for the shortcomings of single-drive numerical simulation accuracy， and achieve a balance between local disease identification and macroscopic syndrome differentiation. On the basis of previous research， we explored the construction method of diagnostic assisted decision-making platform for gastric precancerous state， and believed that the diagnostic and decision-making ability of doctors can be extended through the assistance of machines and algorithms. Meanwhile， the related research methods were integrated and the core features of gastric precancerous state based on TCM syndrome differentiation and endoscopic pathology diagnosis and prediction were obtained， and the elements of endoscopic pathology recognition based on TCM syndrome differentiation were explored， so as to provide ideas for the in-depth research and innovative application of cutting-edge data analysis technology in the field of intelligent TCM syndrome differentiation.

Kinesiology taping technique was applied to patients in the control group and patients in the observation group were treated with lumbar core muscle stability training combined with kinesiology taping technique， then we compared the therapeutic effect， lumbar function and pain degree， surface electromyography of lumbar extensor muscles， lumbar range of motion， LDH recurrence and skin allergies before and after the treatment between the two groups. ResultsAfter 4 weeks of treatment， compared with those in the control group， in the observation group， the visual analogue scale （VAS） and Oswestry disability index （ODI） scores were significantly lower （P<0.05）； the Japanese Orthopaedic Association （JOA） score， mean power frequency of lumbar extensor muscles， integral electromyography value and lumbar function score were significantly higher （P<0.05）. During the treatment， there was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between two groups （P>0.05）. After 4 weeks of treatment， the observation group had a significantly lower LDH recurrence rate than the control group （P<0.05）. ConclusionLumbar core muscle stability training combined with kinesiology taping technique achieves a significantly better therapeutic effect than kinesiology taping technique in the rehabilitation treatment of LDH and can effectively relieve muscle fatigue， help alleviate lumbar spine pain and improve the function of lumbar spine.

Objective To evaluate the performance of a blood nucleic acid testing kit,construct a consistency assess-ment system,and analyze the influencing factors of the test results.Methods A total of 18 644 samples of voluntary blood donors in our center were collected,and 189 double positive samples of hepatitis B surface antigen(HBsAg)by ELISA were eliminated,and the remaining 18 455 samples were tested for HBV DNA in parallel with the test reagent and the control rea-gent(Roche Company).Samples with inconsistent results were confirmed with third-party reagents(Grifols Company,with the sensitivity of HBV DNA,HCV RNA and HIV RNA of 4.5 IU/mL,2.4 IU/mL and 17.3 IU/mL by single reagent,which were significantly better than other reagents),and the consistency between the two methods was compared.Results No HCV RNA or HIV RNA positive samples were detected in this study.Among the 18 455 samples in initial test,12 were pos-itive with consistent results,18 378 were negative with consistent results,and 65 were with inconsistent results between the test reagent and the control reagent,with positive concordance rate,negative concordance rate and concordance rate of the two reagents at 85.17％,99.66％and 99.65％,respectively.In order to further clarify the infection of 65 inconsistent sam-ples,five qualitative tests of hepatitis B and single NAT were conducted to comprehensively evaluate the infection.The re-sults showed that there were 60 positive samples with consistent results,18 371 negative samples with consistent results,and 24 samples with inconsistent results between the test reagent and the control reagent,with positive concordance rate,nega-tive concordance rate and the concordance rate for the two reagents at 86.96％,99.92％and 99.87％,respectively.The Kappa value was 0.83,and the Youden index was 0.40.The ROC curve was plotted with the false-positive rate(1-specifici-ty)as the horizontal coordinate and the true-positive rate(sensitivity)as the vertical coordinate,and the area under the ROC curve was 0.705.189 double-positive samples were selected for conformance testing,and the Ct values of the test rea-gent and the control reagent were analyzed and fitted linearly,with correlation coefficient r=0.972.A Bland-Altman model was constructed with the mean value of the logarithm of the quantitative values of the test reagent and the control reagent as the horizontal coordinate and the difference as the vertical coordinate,and 96.30％of the difference values of the test rea-gents were within the confidence interval.Conclusion The construction of the consistency evaluation system showed that the test reagent has similar detection efficiency with the control reagent,and is suitable for HBV DNA routine screening,which can effectively ensure the safety and effectiveness of blood screening.

Objective To explore the correlation among image acquisition parameter optimization,coronary angiography radiation dose and image quality.Methods 60 patients scheduled for elective percutaneous coronary angiography from January 2022 to January 2024 in our hospital were selected.Basic information and body measurements were collected.Patients were divided into three groups based on BMI,and patients in each BMI group were randomly assigned to the conventional mode group(coronary mode image acquisition:Cardiac Left Coronary,15fps)and the optimized mode group(electrophysiology mode image acquisition:Cardiac EP,7.5fps).Radiation dose data were collected.Image quality was evaluated using an image quality scoring table.Independent sample t-tests,Mann-Whitney U tests,and one-way ANOVA were used for comparisons between groups.Pearson analysis was used for correlations.Results Higher BMI and larger chest circumference were associated with higher radiation doses in a positive linear correlation.Within each BMI group,all radiation dose data(Dose-Area Product,Air Kerma and Chest skin dose)were lower in the optimized mode group than in the conventional mode group(all P＜0.05,reduction rate 48.95％-70.59％).The difference in image quality scores between two groups was not statistically significant(P＞0.05),and all images were of the required quality.Conclusions The radiation dose of percutaneous coronary angiography is affected by the patient's body size,image acquisition parameters,exposure time and many other factors.Optimizing the image acquisition parameters can ensure the quality of the image while realizing the low dose of radiation and reducing the radiation hazards to the patient and the operator.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of AcoStream peripheral thrombus aspiration system combined with catheter-directed thrombolysis in the treatment of lower extremity deep vein thrombosis.Methods:The clinical data of 16 lower extremity deep vein thrombosis cases treated with AcoStream peripheral thrombus aspiration system combined with catheter-directed thrombolysis, admitted to the authors′ hospital from May 2022 to November 2022, were retrospectively analyzed. The differences in circumferential diameter between the affected limb and the healthy side, venous patency score, thrombus clearance grade and intraoperative blood loss were observed and compared. The Villalta score was used during the follow up. Paired sample t-test and Wilcoxon rank sum test were used to compare the changes in the observed indicators before and after treatment to evaluate the efficacy. Results:Treatment were successfully performed in all patients. Before treatment, the circumference differences between the affected and unaffected thighs and calves were (3.69±0.97) and (3.34±0.75)cm, respectively, the venous patency score of the affected side was 8(7.25,9) points. After treatment, the circumference differences between the affected and unaffected thighs and calves were (0.81±0.68) and (0.84±0.70)cm, respectively. The venous patency score of the affected side was 1(0,1)points, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.001). Grade Ⅲ thrombus clearance was achieved in 7 patients, grade Ⅱ thrombus clearance was achieved in 9 patients. The average blood loss during thrombus aspiration was (133.1±12.0) ml. Following up for 6 months, the Villalta score was 0(0,1.75) points. Conclusion:Acostream peripheral thrombus aspiration system combined with catheter-directed thrombolysis is safe and effective for the treatment of lower extremity deep venous thrombosis, with satisfactory short-term efficacy and high clinical application value.

Objective To investigate the effect of patient's body shape and image acquisition mode on the radiation dose and image quality in percutaneous coronary angiography.Methods A total of 40 patients,who received selective percutaneous coronary angiography at the Ningbo Medical Center Lihuili Hospital of China between January 2022 and June 2023,were selected for this study.The patients were randomly divided into conventional group(including 11 males and 9 females,using coronary angiography mode to make image acquisition)and low-dose group(including 14 males and 6 females,using electrophysiological mode to make image acquisition).The patient's basic information,body size data,and the various radiation dose data were collected.The image quality rating scale for assessing the image quality was formulated.The independent sample t-test and Mann-Whitney U test were used for the comparison between the two groups.Pearson correlation analysis method was used to make correlation analysis.Results The larger the patient's chest circumference was,the higher the radiation dose would be,there was a positive linear relationship between the patient's chest circumference and the radiation dose.All the radiation dose parameters in the low-dose group were significantly lower than those in the conventional group(P＜0.01),and its reduction percentage was 48.51％-60.74％.No statistically significant difference in image quality score existed between the two groups(P＞0.0l),and in both groups the image quality was rated as good or better,meeting the requirements of intervention procedures.Conclusion In percutaneous coronary angiography the radiation dose is influenced by multiple factors including patient's body shape,image acquisition mode,exposure time,etc.Optimizing the image acquisition mode can remarkably reduce the radiation dose while maintaining the image quality and protecting the health of patients and operators.(J Intervent Radiol,2024,33:599-603)

Recent trends suggest that Chinese herbal medicine formulas(CHM formulas)are promising treatments for complex diseases.To characterize the precise syndromes,precise diseases and precise targets of the precise targets between complex diseases and CHM formulas,we developed an artificial intelligence-based quantitative predictive algorithm(DeepTCM).DeepTCM has gone through multilevel model cali-bration and validation against a comprehensive set of herb and disease data so that it accurately captures the complex cellular signaling,molecular and theoretical levels of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM).As an example,our model simulated the optimal CHM formulas for the treatment of coronary heart disease(CHD)with depression,and through model sensitivity analysis,we calculated the balanced scoring of the formulas.Furthermore,we constructed a biological knowledge graph representing interactions by associating herb-target and gene-disease interactions.Finally,we experimentally confirmed the thera-peutic effect and pharmacological mechanism of a novel model-predicted intervention in humans and mice.This novel multiscale model opened up a new avenue to combine"disease syndrome"and"macro micro"system modeling to facilitate translational research in CHM formulas.

Purpose To investigate the feasibility of apoptosis small-molecule probe CYS-F for in vivo molecular imaging in acute middle cerebral artery embolization and recalculation models,and to explore its ability to reflect lesions.Materials and Methods Hela cell apoptosis was induced by Adriamycin,and the targeting ability of the probe was verified in vitro.Clinical middle cerebral artery embolization was simulated,acute ischemic stroke model(n=15)and recanalization model(n=15)were constructed,and the vessels were evaluated by magnetic resonance angiography imaging.The distribution of CYS-F was investigated by injecting the probe into the caudal vein.24 hours after modeling,the lesion volume rate was assessed on T2WI,and apoptosis was assessed in vivo by near infrared imaging.Niss and c-fos staining were used to compare the differences between the two groups.Results CYS-F showed a good ability to target apoptosis in vitro.After modeling,Doppler flowmeter and magnetic resonance angiography showed that the middle cerebral artery was successfully embolized in the embolization group,and the artery was recanalized in the recanalization group.Near infrared imaging showed the loss of fluorescence signal in the middle cerebral artery region in the embolized group.24 hours after modeling,T2WI showed that the infarct volume rate in the recanalization group was significantly lower than that in the embolization group(0.055±0.015 vs.0.512±0.220;t=19.761,P<0.001).The fluorescence intensity of the embolization group was significantly stronger than that of the recusing group,the target to background ratio was 1.215±0.162 and 0.731±0.085,respectively(t=10.252,P<0.001).In the embolization group,a large number of activated neurons expressed c-fos protein,and a large number of cells underwent nuclear condensation and lysis by Niss staining.Conclusion The acute embolization model and recalculation model of middle cerebral artery in mice are close to the clinic.CYS-F can be used to image apoptosis in vivo,reflect the lesion degree,and reflect the local tissue blood perfusion at the initial stage of injection.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a formidable disease due to its complex pathogenesis. Macrophages, as a major immune cell population in IBD, are crucial for gut homeostasis. However, it is still unveiled how macrophages modulate IBD. Here, we found that LIM domain only 7 (LMO7) was downregulated in pro-inflammatory macrophages, and that LMO7 directly degraded 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase 3 (PFKFB3) through K48-mediated ubiquitination in macrophages. As an enzyme that regulates glycolysis, PFKFB3 degradation led to the glycolytic process inhibition in macrophages, which in turn inhibited macrophage activation and ultimately attenuated murine colitis. Moreover, we demonstrated that PFKFB3 was required for histone demethylase Jumonji domain-containing protein 3 (JMJD3) expression, thereby inhibiting the protein level of trimethylation of histone H3 on lysine 27 (H3K27me3). Overall, our results indicated the LMO7/PFKFB3/JMJD3 axis is essential for modulating macrophage function and IBD pathogenesis. Targeting LMO7 or macrophage metabolism could potentially be an effective strategy for treating inflammatory diseases.
