Tracheobronchial adenoid cystic carcinoma （TACC） is a low-grade malignant tumor originating from the airway mucosa. Despite its slow progression，it is characterized by high invasiveness，frequent recurrence，and a strong tendency for metastasis. Preclinical studies have shown that vascular-targeted therapy holds significant potential. However，an effective systemic treatment for TACC has not been established yet. This study explored TACC from the perspective of "Feiji" in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） as the starting point. It deeply investigated the mechanisms of abnormal collaterals and tumor vascular recruitment and further elaborated on the theoretical connection between abnormal collaterals and tumor vascular recruitment. Firstly，collateral hyperactivity led to disordered and erratic pulmonary collaterals. Their abnormal structures were similar to the disorderly and tortuous nature of tumor （pseudo）angiogenesis. This resulted in imbalances in the functions of circulation，perfusion，and reverse injection of the pulmonary collaterals，and then led to unrestrained collateral dysfunction and the accumulation of pathogenic factors. Secondly，the remodeling of the extracellular matrix （ECM） and epithelial-mesenchymal transition （EMT） in TACC were critical processes in vascular co-option （VCO），representing the micro-level manifestation of the displacement of nutrient and defense. During this process，ECM remodeling made TACC cells more likely to hijack normal blood vessels，creating a complex vascular microenvironment conducive to tumor growth. In terms of treatment，this study proposed a TCM strategy of "regulating collaterals to expel pathogenic factors and nourishing collaterals to strengthen the healthy Qi"，and listed potential TCM. These were intended to regulate the Qi and blood in the collaterals，repair the functions of abnormal collaterals，and intervene in the vascular recruitment process of TACC. Future research should focus on improving the TCM clinical syndrome characteristics of TACC. Through modern molecular biology techniques，it is necessary to deeply analyze the micro-level pattern of vascular recruitment in TACC. This would enrich the understanding of the profound connection between abnormal collaterals and tumor vascular recruitment，providing empirical evidence for TCM-targeted therapies for vascular recruitment in TACC.

Objective:To explore the feasibility and application value of an automated method for generation of surgical records for resection of benign soft tissue tumor based on dense video descriptions.Methods:The Transformer deep learning model was used to establish an automated surgical record generation system to analyze the surgical videos of 30 patients with benign soft tissue tumor who had been admitted to Department of Orthopedics, Xijing Hospital, Air Force Military Medical University from September 2021 to August 2023. The patient data were randomly divided into training sets, validation sets, and test sets in a ratio of 8∶1∶1. In the test sets, 7 evaluation indexes, BLEU-1, BLEU-2, BLEU-3, BLEU-4, Meteor, Rouge, and CIDEr, were used to evaluate the text quality of surgical records generated by the model. The text of surgical records was compared with the classical algorithm, dense video captioning with paralled decoding (PDVC) in the field of video-intensive description.Results:The automated surgical record generation system running in the test sets showed the following: BLEU-1, BLEU-2, BLEU-3, BLEU-4, Rouge, Meteor, and CIDEr were 16.80, 15.23, 13.01, 11.68, 16.01, 12.67 and 62.30, respectively. The operation of the classical algorithm PDVC showed the following: BLEU-1, BLEU-2, BLEU-3, BLEU-4, Rouge, Meteor, and CIDEr were 15.63, 14.17, 11.90, 10.45, 12.97, 11.99 and 53.64, respectively. The automated surgical record generation system resulted in significant improvements compared with PDVC in all evaluation indexes. The BLEU-4, Rouge, Meteor, and CIDEr were improved by 1.23, 3.04, 0.68 and 8.66, respectively, demonstrating that the system proposed can better capture the key data in the video to help generate more effective text records.Conclusion:As the automated surgical record generation system shows good performance in generating surgical records for resection of benign soft tissue tumor based on intensive video descriptions, it can be applied in clinical practice.

Objective To evaluate the accuracies of two-dimensional ultrasound(2D-US)and three-dimensional ultrasound virtual organ computer-aided analysis(3D-VOCAL)in measuring uterine myoma volume(UMV).Methods Forty-five patients who underwent surgical treatment for uterine myoma at Longyan First Hospital,Fujian Medical University from October 2022 to April 2023 were selected.Preoperative measurements of UMV were performed using 2D-US and 3D-VOCAL,and the measurement results were compared with the actual UMV after surgical resection to assess the accuracies and repeatabilities of the two ultrasound techniques in measuring UMV.Results The UMV measurement consistency of 3D-VOCAL(ICC=0.992)was higher than that of 2D-US(ICC=0.976),and the ICC values of 3D-VOCAL were higher than those of 2D-US in UM of different sizes(all P<0.001).Statistically significant differences among 2D-US,3D-VOCAL and postoperative measurement results was found in UM with a maximum diameter≥8 cm(P<0.05),but not in UMV and UM with a maximum diameter<8 cm(P>0.05),and the further analysis showed that in UM with a maximum diameter≥8 cm,the UMV measured by 2D-US differed from postoperative measurement results(P<0.05).The differences between 3D-VOCAL measurement results and postoperative measurement results were trivial(P>0.05).There were greater intra-and interobserver agreements by 3D-VOCAL than 2D-US in UMV measurement.Conclusion 3D-VOCAL which is superior to 2D-US in preoperative UMV measurement is a simple,efficient,and reliable method,and it can provide theoretical bases for clinical follow-up.

Objective:Factors influencing the prognosis of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) in adults were analyzed based on multicentric data.Methods:Clinical data of 124 adult patients with HLH diagnosed in eight medical centers in the Huaihai Lymphoma Working Group from March 2014 to July 2020 were collected. The optimal truncation value of continuous variables was obtained based on the Maxstat algorithm, X-Tile software, and restricted cubic spline. Cox proportional risk regression model was used to construct the adult HLH risk prediction model, and the visualization of the model was realized through the histogram. The bootstrap resampling method was used to verify the model, C-index and calibration curve was used to verify the histogram, and the prediction accuracy was checked. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to calculate the survival rate and draw the survival curve. Furthermore, the differences between groups were tested by log-rank.Results:The median age of the 124 patients was 55 (18-84) years, including 61 (49.19%) males. The most common etiology was infection. Serum ferritin increased in 110 cases (88.71%) , hepatosplenomegaly in 57 cases (45.97%) . Of the 124 patients, 77 (62.10%) died, and the median survival time of the patients was 7.07 months. Univariate results showed that the prognosis of adult HLH was influenced by sex, age, fibrinogen, serum creatinine, alanine aminotransferase, and albumin ( P<0.05) . The results of multivariate analysis showed that gender, platelet, albumin, alanine aminotransferase, and treatment regimens were independent influencing factors for prognosis. Based on the above five risk factors, the prediction model of the histogram was established, and the C-index of the model was 0.739. Finally, the calibration chart showed good consistency between the observed and predicted values of HLH. Conclusion:The prognosis of the adult hemophagocytic syndrome is influenced by many factors. Gender, platelet, albumin, alanine aminotransferase, and treatment regimens are independent risk factors. Therefore, the established histogram provides a visual tool for clinicians to evaluate the prognosis of adult HLH.

Objective To evaluate the early predictive and diagnostic value of procalcitonin (PCT) in abdominal infection after pancreatoduodenectomy(PD).Methods The clinical data of 62 patients with PD in the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from April 2016 to April 2017 were retrospectively analyzed.The general data and postoperative conditions of the patients were recorded.Serum PCT,C-reactive protein (CRP) levels and WBC counts were measured before and 1,3,and 5 days after surgery.According to the postoperative abdominal infection,the patients were divided into abdominal infection group (n =10) and control group(n =52).The area under the ROC curve (AUC) was calculated by plotting the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve,and the cut-off value was determined to compare the sensitivity and specificity of the two groups of patients.Results There were no significant difference between two groups on age,gender,BMI,diabetes mellitus,preoperative laboratory indicators,anesthetic time,operation time,intraoperative bleeding and blood transfusion,surgical procedures and Braun anastomosis,which were comparable.The incidence of postoperative hyperglycemia,surgical incision infection,pancreatic fistula,biliary fistula,mortality,postoperative hospital stay and total medical costs of abdominal infection group were significantly higher than those of control group (P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences on PCT,CRP,and WBC between the two groups before surgery.The PCT level of the abdominal infection group was significantly higher than that of the control group at the 1st postoperative day and the difference was statistically significant (P ＜0.05).The sensitivity of predicting abdominal infection was 90％ and the specificity was 75％,which was significantly higher than those of CRP and WBC.There were no significant differences on the sensitivity and specificity of PCT,CRP and WBC for postoperative abdominal infection at 3 and 5 days after surgery,but the sensitivity of the combined diagnosis was as high as 100％ and 90％,significantly higher than 3 indicators alone,respectively.Conclusions Serum PCT level may predict in advance or diagnose early abdominal infection after PD.The combination of PCT,CRP and WBC might be more valuable for the diagnosis of abdominal infection after PD.

Objective To study the clinical characteristics of cognitive function in elderly acute stroke (AS) patients with CHF.Methods Two hundred and seventeen elderly AS patients with CHF were devided into HFrEF group (n=77),HFmrEF (n=46) and HFpEF group (n=94) according to their LVEF.Their clinical data (including baseline demographic data,history of disease,NIHSS score,MMSE score,MoCA score,responsible lesions) were recorded and analyzed.Results The SBP and total MoCA score were significantly lower while the incidence of persistant AF,DM and serum HbA1C level were significantly higher in HFrEF group than in HFmrEF group and HFpEF group (P＜0.05,P＜0.01).The incidence of left ventricular hypertrothy was higher in HFpEF group than in HFmrEF group and HFpEF group (P＜0.01).The total incidence of cognitive impairment was 54.8％ in 217 AS patients with CHF.Logistic regression analysis showed that persistant AF,SBP and DM were the risk factors for cognitive impairment (OR=2.757,P=0.017;OR=0.971,P=0.001;OR=2.293,P=0.031).Conclusion The incidence of cognitive impairment is rather high in elderly AS patients with CHF.Persistant AF,DM and SBP are the risk factors for cognitive impairment.Attention should thus be paid to the assessment of cognitive impairment in elderly AS patients with CHF.

Objective To observe the gastric changes in adult male Sprague-Dawly (SD) rats irradiated by the single large dose electron beam,providing animal experimental evidence for intraoperative radiotherapy for gastric cancer.Methods Thirty-eight SD rats were randomly divided into the control and experimental groups.The stomach of the rats in the experimental group were subject to single 6 MeV 20 Gy irridiation by using the patent technology of Accurate Irradiation Experiment Table for Small Animal Radiation.The general conditions,gastric injury and body weight change were observed at different days following irradiation.Results The most severe gastric damage of rats was observed on the 14th d after irradiation.The gastric injury was gradually repaired accompanied with glandular atrophy at 28 d postirradiation,and the gastric injury was manifested as cellulose fibrinous repair on the 56th d after irradiation.Within 1 week post-irradiation,weight loss was noted in the experimental group,which significantly differed from the rats in the control group (P＜0.05).During the 2nd week,the body weight was increased in the experimental group,significantly lower compared with the rats in the control group (P＜ 0.05).The body weight of rats did not significantly differ between two groups at 6 weeks after irradiation (P＞ 0.05).Conclusions The most severe gastric injury is observed at 2 weeks after the single-dose 6 MeV electron beam 20 Gy irradiation,whereas no gastric perforation occurs.The gastric injury can be restored to normal status within 8 weeks following irradiation.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of death and to establish an early multi-index predictive model for mortality moderately of severe acute pancreatitis (MSAP) and severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) in elderly patients.Methods Clinical data of 58 digible elderly patients of MSAP and SAP between January 2014 and May 2017 in First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University were analyzed retrospectively,including 18 cases (31.0％) in the death group and 40 cases in the control group (69.0％).Univariate analysis and logistic regression analysis were used to screen out the independent risk factors related to death,combined with these independent risk factors,the unweighted predictive model (unwScore) and weighted predictive model (wScore) for mortality were established.The receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curves of independent risk factors and predictive models were drawn to determine the cut-off value,to calculate the area under the curve (AUC),sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value and negative predictive value and to observe the clinical predictive effectiveness.Student's t-test was used to analyze continuous variables that complied with a normal distribution expressed as ((x) ± s).Mann-Whitney U test was used to analyze abnormally distributed variables expressed as median (quartile range) [M(P25,P75)].chi-square test or Fisher's exact test was used to analyze categorical data expressed by rate (％).Univariate analysis was used to screen out data with statistically significant difference,and then Logistic regression analysis was performed to determine independent predictors.Results Univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in pro-calcitonin,serum albumin (ALB),serum calcium,D-dimers,mean arterial pressure,pleural effusion and peritoneal effusion between the two groups (P ＜0.05);multivariate analysis showed that ALB,pleural effusion and peritoneal effusion were independent risk factors for mortality of MSAP,SAP in early patients,which AUC were 0.815,0.678,0.696,sensitivity were 0.611,0.556,0.667,specificity were 0.825,0.800,0.725,the positive predictive values were 61.1％,55.6％,52.2％,and the negative predictive values were 82.5％,80.0％,89.9％,respectively.The AUC of unwScore and wScore were 0.852 and 0.863,the sensitivity were 0.667 and 0.778,the specificity were O.875 and 0.800,the positive predictive values were 70.6％ and 63.6％,and the negative predictive values were 85.4％ and 88.9％,respectively.Conclusion ALB,pleural effusion and peritoneal effusion were independent risk factors for mortality of MSAP,SAP in elderly patients.The multi-index predictive model had good clinical predictive effectiveness,which could provide clinical references for the treatment of MSAP and SAP in elderly patients.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of aqueous extraction of Lonicerae Flos (SYHW) on anti-influenza A virus H1N1 (H1N1 virus) in vitro. METHODS:Using Madin-Darby canine kid ney (MDCK) cells cultured in vitro by H1N1 virus, half of the tissue culture infection dose(TCID50)was calculated. Culturing MDCK cells for 24 h with different mass concentrations of SYHW,the maximum non-toxic concentration was investigated. And then test was divided into normal cell group,virus control group,SYHW preventive administration group,therapeutic administration group and direct killing group (given SYHW of maxi-mum non-toxic concentration,infecting cells by 100 TCID50 H1N1 virus),and antiviral effective rate (ER) of SYHW was deter-mined. Test was divided into normal cell group,virus control group,SYHW therapeutic group and direct killing group (the same administration and infection as above),changes of cell proliferation index (PI) and cell apoptosis rate were respectively deter-mined. RESULTS:100 TCID50 of H1N1 virus was 1.26×10-7,and the maximum non-toxic concentration of SYHW on MDCK cells was 50 μg/mL(cell survival rate was 91.3%). ERs of preventive administration group,therapeutic administration group and direct killing group were 0,80.3% and 52.7%,respectively. Compared with normal cell group,PI value in virus control group was sig-nificantly reduced (P<0.05),early and late apoptotic rates were significantly increased (P<0.05). Compared with virus control group,PI value in directly killing group was significantly increased(P<0.05),and early apoptotic rate was significantly reduced (P<0.05);early apoptotic rates in therapeutic administration group were significantly reduced (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:SY-HW shows anti-H1N1 virus effect in vitro,therapeutic administration and directly killing are preferred in antiviral effect.
