Objective To establish an intelligent detection algorithm model for acute promyelocytic leukemia(M3 model)based on a contrast large model using machine learning statistical software and validate its effectiveness.Methods The data from 8 256 outpa-tients and inpatients who underwent complete blood cell analysis at Peking Union Medical College Hospital were retrieved and analyzed using the laboratory information system(LIS)and hospital information system(HIS).A M3 screening model was established and vali-dated using the data from outpatients and inpatients who underwent complete blood cell analysis at our hospital from July to October 2023.Results The M3 model demonstrated potential application value in screening for M3 disease in complete blood cell analysis,which showed certain efficacy in screening for neutrophil toxicity changes,particularly in identifying two cases of blue-green inclusion bodies in neutrophils.Conclusion The M3 model exhibited low specificity for M3 diagnosis.Future research should focus on increas-ing the number of M3-positive cases to optimize the model,ensuring high sensitivity while improving specificity.This model will provide assistance for the intelligent review of complete blood cell analysis.

Objective:This study aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of gilteritinib (Gilt) -based combination therapy bridging allo-HSCT for FLT3-ITD + R/R AML. Additionally, it aims to assess the impact of Gilt maintenance therapy on the prognosis of patients after allo-HSCT. Methods:The clinical data of 26 patients with FLT3-ITD + R/R AML treated at the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from August 2019 to January 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. The analysis included an assessment of the composite complete remission rate (CRc), overall survival (OS) time, disease-free survival (DFS) time, and adverse events experienced by all enrolled patients. Results:A total of 26 patients with FLT3-ITD + R/R AML were enrolled, including 14 men and 12 women with a median age of 38 (18-65) years. A total of 18 cases were refractory, and eight cases were relapsed. The curative effect evaluation conducted between 14 and 21 days showed that the complete remission (CR) rate was 26.9% (7/26), the CR with hematology incomplete recovery was 57.7% (15/26), and the partial response (PR) rate was 7.7% (2/26). The CRc was 84.6% (22/26), and the minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity rate was 65.4%. The 12 month cumulative OS rate for all patients was 79.0%, and the 24 month cumulative OS rate was 72.0%. The median OS time was not determined. The median follow-up time was 16.0 months. Among the patients who responded to treatment, the 12 month cumulative DFS rate was 78.0%, and the 24 month cumulative DFS rate was 71.0%. The median DFS time was not determined. Patients who received allo-HSCT had a median OS time that was significantly longer than those who did not receive allo-HSCT (3.3 months, 95% CI 2.2-4.3 months, P=0.005). The median OS time of patients with or without Gilt maintenance therapy after allo-HSCT was not determined, but the OS time of patients with Gilt maintenance therapy after allo-HSCT treatment was longer than that of patients without Gilt maintenance therapy after allo-HSCT treatment ( P=0.019). The FLT3-ITD mutation clearance rate in this study was 38.5%, and the median OS time of patients with FLT3-ITD mutation clearance was not determined but was significantly longer than the median OS of patients without FLT3-ITD mutation clearance (15.0 months; P=0.018). The most common grade 3 and above hematological adverse events of Gilt-based combination therapy included leukopenia (76.9%), neutropenia (76.9%), febrile neutropenia (61.5%), thrombocytopenia (69.2%), and anemia (57.7%). One patient developed differentiation syndrome during oral Gilt maintenance therapy after allo-HSCT treatment, but his condition improved after treatment. Conclusion:The Gilt-based combination therapy is highly effective in treating FLT3-ITD + R/R AML. It demonstrates a high CRc, MRD negativity rate, and rapid onset, leading to a significant improvement in patients' survival. Furthermore, the clearance rate of FLT3-ITD mutation is notably high. Additionally, implementing bridging allo-HSCT and Gilt maintenance therapy after allo-HSCT treatment has considerably enhances patients' survival. Closely monitoring and managing any adverse event that may occur during treatment are crucial.

Objective To investigate the pharmacokinetic characteristics of asparaginase-loaded sulfobutyl ether-β-cyclodextrin supramolecule lipidic nanoparticles (ASLN) in rats and its inhibitory effect on the proliferation of small cell lung cancer cells. Methods ASLN were prepared by a reverse phase evaporation method,and their physicochemical properties,including morphology,particle size,zeta potential,and drug entrapment efficiency,were characterized. Twelve male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 2 groups,with 6 rats in each group. After intravenous injection of ASLN and free asparaginase (Aase) 2 kU/kg,the activity of Aase in plasma samples was measured at different time points in 48 h,and the activity-time curve was drawn. The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by software DAS 2.1.1. The cytotoxicity of ASLN on H446 cells was explored by the MTT method. Results ASLN showed a spherical shape with a mean particle size of (321.27±1.42) nm,zeta potential of (-9.31±0.42) mV,and entrapment efficiency of (66.46±1.57)％. Pharmacokinetic parameters of ASLN and Aase were as follows:the area under curve (AUC(0-48 h)) (199.48±2.18) U·mL-1·h,(57.63±3.89) U·mL-1·h;the mean residence time (MRT(0-48 h)) (4.40±0.05) h,(2.09±0.07) h;and the peak concentration (Cmax) (35.49±1.11) U/mL,(27.58±1.28) U/mL. The relative bioavailability of ASLN to Aase was 325.96％. The cytotoxicity results indicated that ASLN had a proliferation inhibitory effect on H446 cells,and there was a positive correlation between the inhibition rate and the dose. Conclusion ASLN can improve the pharmacokinetics of Aase,enhance the bioavailability of Aase,and inhibit the proliferation of small cell lung cancer cells.

Purpose: The prognosis of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT) is extremely poor, and systemic therapy is currently the mainstream treatment. This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of lenvatinib combined with anti–programmed cell death-1 antibodies and transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (triple therapy) in patients with HCC and PVTT. Materials and Methods: This retrospective multicenter study included patients with HCC and PVTT who received triple therapy, were aged between 18 and 75 years, classified as Child-Pugh class A or B, and had at least one measurable lesion. The overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rates, and disease control rates were analyzed to assess efficacy. Treatment-related adverse events were analyzed to assess safety profiles. Results: During a median follow-up of 11.23 months (range, 3.07 to 34.37 months), the median OS was greater than 24 months, and median PFS was 12.53 months. The 2-year OS rate was 54.9%. The objective response rate and disease control rate were 69.8% (74/106) and 84.0% (89/106), respectively; 20.8% (22/106) of the patients experienced grade 3/4 treatment-related adverse events and no treatment-related deaths occurred. The conversion rate to liver resection was 31.1% (33/106), with manageable postoperative complications. The median OS was not reached in the surgery group, but was 19.08 months in the non-surgery group. The median PFS in the surgery and non-surgery groups were 20.50 and 9.00 months, respectively. Conclusion Triple therapy showed promising survival benefits and high response rates in patients with HCC and PVTT, with manageable adverse effects.

Background/Aims: Low educational attainment is a well-established risk factor for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in developed areas. However, the association between educational attainment and the risk of NAFLD is less clear in China. Methods: A cross-sectional study including over 200,000 Chinese adults across mainland China was conducted. Information on education level and lifestyle factors were obtained through standard questionnaires, while NAFLD and advanced fibrosis were diagnosed using validated formulas. Outcomes included the risk of NAFLD in the general population and high probability of fibrosis among patients with NAFLD. Logistic regression analysis was employed to estimate the risk of NAFLD and fibrosis across education levels. A causal mediation model was used to explore the potential mediators. Results: Comparing with those receiving primary school education, the multi-adjusted odds ratios (95% confidence intervals) for NAFLD were 1.28 (1.16 to 1.41) for men and 0.94 (0.89 to 0.99) for women with college education after accounting for body mass index. When considering waist circumference, the odds ratios (95% CIs) were 0.94 (0.86 to 1.04) for men and 0.88 (0.80 to 0.97) for women, respectively. The proportions mediated by general and central obesity were 51.00% and 68.04% for men, while for women the proportions were 48.58% and 32.58%, respectively. Furthermore, NAFLD patients with lower educational attainment showed an incremental increased risk of advanced fibrosis in both genders. Conclusions In China, a low education level was associated with a higher risk of prevalent NAFLD in women, as well as high probability of fibrosis in both genders.

OBJECTIVE: To design and construct a graphene oxide (GO)/silver nitrate (Ag₃PO₄)/chitosan (CS) composite coating for rapidly killing bacteria and preventing postoperative infection in implant surgery. METHODS: GO/Ag₃PO₄ composites were prepared by ion exchange method, and CS and GO/Ag₃PO₄ composites were deposited on medical titanium (Ti) sheets successively. The morphology, physical image, photothermal and photocatalytic ability, antibacterial ability, and adhesion to the matrix of the materials were characterized. RESULTS: The GO/Ag₃PO₄ composites were successfully prepared by ion exchange method and the heterogeneous structure of GO/Ag₃PO₄ was proved by morphology phase test. The heterogeneous structure formed by Ag₃PO₄ and GO reduced the band gap from 1.79 eV to 1.39 eV which could be excited by 808 nm near-infrared light. The photothermal and photocatalytic experiments proved that the GO/Ag₃PO₄/CS coating had excellent photothermal and photodynamic properties. In vitro antibacterial experiments showed that the antibacterial rate of the GO/Ag₃PO₄/CS composite coating against Staphylococcus aureus reached 99.81% after 20 minutes irradiation with 808 nm near-infrared light. At the same time, the composite coating had excellent light stability, which could provide stable and sustained antibacterial effect. CONCLUSION GO/Ag₃PO₄/CS coating can be excited by 808 nm near infrared light to produce reactive oxygen species, which has excellent antibacterial activity under light.

Objective:Evaluation of ultrasound-guided radiofrequency of hyperthermia combined with recombinant human adenovirus H101 for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods:In vitro cell therapy experiments, luciferase/red fluorescent protein/lentivirus mediated McA-RH7777 cells were conducted and divided into 4 groups. Each group was repeatedly treated for 6 times: (1) recombinant human adenovirus type 5 H101 [(multiplicity of infection, MOI)=0.2]+ RFH group, heated at 42℃ for 30 min; (2) recombinant human adenovirus type 5 H101 alone (MOI=0.2); (3) RFH alone, heated at 42℃ for 30 min; (4) control group: physiological saline group. Twenty-four nude rats weighing 180-220 g were selected to establish a nude rat model of orthotopic HCC. They were divided into 4 groups with 6 rats in each group: (1) H101+ RFH combined treatment group: RFH electrode needles were punctured to the center of the tumor in the liver of nude rats under ultrasound guidance, and H101 was directly injected through the electrode injection end. RFH was delivered to the tumor at a temperature of 42℃ for 30 min; (2) H101 treatment group: MOI=0.2; (3) RFH treatment group; (4) sham surgery group. Fluorescence microscopy imaging was used to evaluate the viability of cells in vitro experiments. For in vivo validation, ultrasound imaging was used to follow up the tumor size. Tumor gross specimens and pathological changes were also evaluated.Results:Twenty-four hours after treatment, the survival rate of cells in the H101+ RFH group was the lowest under fluorescence microscopy. The results of MTS quantitative analysis showed that the relative absorbance of mezzanine in the H101+ RFH group cells was lower than that in the H101 group alone [(25.00±2.27)% vs. (69.50±4.53)%], the RFH group alone [(25.00±2.27)% vs. (92.83±1.66)%], and the control group [(25.00±2.27)% vs. 100%], with statistical significance (all P<0.001). The number of apoptotic cells in the H101+ RFH group was higher than that in the H101 group alone [(54.5±3.1)% vs. (25.2±1.4)%], the RFH group alone [(54.5±3.1)% vs. (5.7±0.6)%], and the control group [(54.5±3.1)% vs. (3.9±0.5)%], all of which showed statistically significant differences (all P<0.001). The relative tumor volume of nude rats in the H101+ RFH combination treatment group was smaller than that in the H101 treatment group (0.776±0.127 vs. 1.312±0.188), RFH treatment group (0.776±0.127 vs. 1.893±0.571), and sham surgery group (0.776±0.127 vs. 1.977±0.590), all of which had statistical significance (all P<0.001). The number of apoptotic cells in nude rats in the H101+ RFH combination treatment group was higher than that in the H101 treatment group [(49.85±4.00%)% vs. (22.70±0.65)%], the RFH treatment group [(49.85±4.00% vs. (5.36±0.84)%], and the sham surgery group [(49.85±4.00)% vs. (5.96±0.78)%], all of which showed statistically significant differences (all P<0.001). Conclusion:Ultrasound guided RFH combined with recombinant human adenovirus H101 has a promoting effect on the treatment of HCC.
