OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate risk prediction models for chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression in breast cancer, and provide a scientific reference for clinical healthcare workers in selecting or developing effective predictive models. METHODS A systematic search was conducted for studies on predictive models of the risk of chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression in breast cancer across the CNKI, VIP, Wanfang, PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Embase, and Scopus databases, with a time frame of the establishment of the database to May 7, 2024. Literature was independently screened by 2 investigators, data were extracted according to critical appraisal and data extraction for systematic reviews of predictive model studies, and the risk of bias evaluation tool for predictive model studies was used to analyze the risk of bias and applicability of the included studies. RESULTS There were totally 7 studies, comprising 12 models. Among them, 11 models indicated an area under the subject operating characteristic curve of 0.600-0.908; 2 models indicated calibration. The common predictor variables of the included models were age, pre-chemotherapy neutrophil count, pre-chemotherapy lymphocyte count, and pre-chemotherapy albumin. The overall risk of bias of the 7 studies was high, which was mainly attributed to the flaws in the study design, insufficient sample sizes, inappropriate treatment of variables, non-reporting of missing data, and the lack of indicators for the assessment of the models, but the applicability was good. CONCLUSIONS The predictive performance of risk predictive models for chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression in breast cancer remains to be further enhanced, and the overall risk of model bias is high. Future studies should follow the specifications of model development and reporting, then combine machine learning algorithms to develop risk predictive models with good predictive performance, high stability, and low risk of bias, so as to provide a decision-making basis for the clinic.

OBJECTIVE To construct a prediction model for the efficacy of serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) in inpatients with moderate and severe depression by using a machine learning method. METHODS The case records of inpatients with moderate and severe depression treated with SNRI antidepressants were collected from a third-grade class-A hospital in Xinjiang from January 2022 to October 2024; those patients were divided into effective group and ineffective group based on the Hamilton depression scale-24 score reduction rate. After screening the characteristic variables related to the therapeutic efficacy of SNRI drugs through LASSO regression, five prediction models including support vector machine, k-nearest neighbor, random forest, lightweight gradient boosting machine and extreme gradient boosting were constructed using the training set. Bayesian optimization was used to adjust the hyperparameters of these models. The performance of the models was evaluated in the validation set to select the optimal model. The Shapley additive explanations method was used to perform explainable analysis on the best model. RESULTS The medical records from 355 hospitalized patients with moderate and severe depression were collected, comprising 285 cases in the effective group and 70 cases in the ineffective group, resulting in an overall therapeutic response rate of 80.28%. After feature variable screening, five characteristic variables for therapeutic efficacy were obtained, including Hamilton anxiety scale, blood urea nitrogen, combination of anti-anxiety drugs, drinking history, and first onset of the disease. Compared with other models, the random forest model performed the best. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.85, the area under the precision-recall curve was 0.87, the accuracy was 0.74, and the recall rate value was 0.75. CONCLUSIONS The random forest model constructed based on five characteristic variables demonstrates potential for predicting the therapeutic efficacy of SNRI antidepressants in hospitalized patients with moderate and severe depression.

Objective:To explore the effect of hallux nail flap design assisted with 3D printing in reconstruction of thumb defect in degloving injury.Methods:From January 2020 to March 2022, 16 patients with thumb defect caused by degloving injury with intact digit flexor and extensor tendons were treated. The patients were 11 males and 5 females, aged 20 to 52 years old, with an average age of 31 years old. The injured patient's hands were firstly scanned by CT and the 3D models were created to map the profile of the tissues required for reconstruction. Photopolymer templates for the defects in thumb were then 3D printed. The printed templates were put on the great toes and accordingly the hallux nail flaps were designed and harvested. The degloving wound of thumb was repaired by the hallux nail flap. Donor sites were repaired with artificial dermis in 6 patients and with ilioinguinal flaps in 10 patients. The effect of surgery was observed at outpatient clinic during postoperative follow-up. The survival of the hallux nail flap and the recovery of the donor site were observed. Function recovery were evaluated according to the Evaluation Standard of Finger Replantation and Reconstruction of Hand Surgery Society of Chinese Medical Association.Results:All the harvested hallux nail flaps matched with the profiles of recipient sites. All the hallux nail flaps survived over 4 to 30 months of follow-up, in an average of 16 months. Appearance of all hallux nail flaps was similar to normal thumbs, with good fingerprint and nails. Sensation recovery were S 3-S 4, with TPD at 4-7 mm. According to the Evaluation Trial Standards of Upper Limb Partial Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association, 15 thumbs were excellent and 1 was good. Conclusion:Application of 3D printing assisted hallux nail flap transfer in reconstruction of defect of thumb in degloving injury can precisely design and harvest the required tissue and minimise a damage to the donor great toe. It improves the appearance of thumb as well as patient satisfaction. It is practical in reconstruction of the defect of thumb in degloving injury.

Objective:To report the surgical techniques and clinical outcomes of multi-dimensional fixation of patellar multi-fragmentary fractures with locking plates.Methods:A retrospective study was performed in the 26 patients with patellar multi-fragmentary fracture who had undergone open reduction and 3-D internal fixation with locking plates from November 2016 to July 2020 at Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, The Sixth People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University. There were 17 males and 9 females, with an average age of 62.6 years (from 31 to 90 years). The patellar fractures were exposed and reduced via the longitudinal anterior midline incision of the knee. After the reduction was initially maintained with a cerclage wire, a trimmed and pre-contoured 3.5 mm locking plate was applied onto the patellar surface. After-wards, locking screws were inserted from the lower pole to the upper pole of the patella, from the anterior to the posterior and from the lateral to the medial, respectively, to complete the multi-planar fixation. Follow-ups assessed the B?stman score, knee pain visual analogue scale (VAS), radiographic image and fracture healing, range of motion of the knee, and complications.Results:All the 26 patients were followed up for 12 to 56 months (average, 28 months). Crutches were used while walking until an average of 1.6 months (from 1 to 3 months) after operation in all patients. At the last follow-up, the B?stman score averaged 27.5 points (from 17 to 30 points), yielding 12 excellent, 13 good and 1 poor case with an excellent to good rate of 96.2% (25/26); the knee pain VAS averaged 1.2 points (from 0 to 5 points); the active knee flexion averaged 125° (from 100° to 150°). No breakage, loosening or displacement of the patellar plates or screws was observed during follow-up, but cerclage wire breakage occurred without any symptom in 11 cases. Four patients complained of hardware irritation, and 4 patients underwent hardware removal after fracture union.Conclusion:Multi-dimensional fixation with locking plates is a viable and safe surgical option for patellar multi-fragmentary fractures, due to its satisfactory therapeutic outcomes.

Objective:Anatomical study of the cross-donor flap pedicled with the peroneal artery and the discussion of the effect of clinical application, so as to describe a new method for the repair of large-area soft tissue defects in the foot and ankle.Methods:From June 2016 to August 2019, 12 specimens of adult lower limbs were studied. The popliteal arteries were perfused with perchloroethylene-ethyl acetate-lead oxide and red perchloroethylene-ethyl acetate. The origin, number, outer diameter, course and distribution of perforating branches of the peroneal artery were anatomically observed. The source, distribution and anastomosis of the skin nutrient vessels in the posterolateral area of the calf were also studied. Relationship of the blood supply between the peroneal arteries and veins and the nutritional vessels of the sural nerve were observed. In 9 patients, the peroneal artery and vein were designed as the pedicle of cross-donor flap in the repair of large soft tissue defects of foot and ankle. The patients were entered follow-up through outpatient visits and telephone interviews.Results:Among the 12 adult specimens of lower limbs, there were 65 perforating branches from the peroneal artery, 4-7 branches on each side, with an average of (5.41±1.00) branches. The diameter of the penetrating deep fascia was(1.07±0.36) mm. The perforator branches were mostly distributed in 3 sections of 4.0-11.0 cm, 16.0-21.0 cm and 24.0-27.0 cm away from the lateral malleolus, accounting for 48%, 24% and 17% of the total number of perforators, respectively. The outer diameters of the perforator vessels were (0.92±0.26)(0.56-1.68) mm, (1.32±0.38)(0.60-2.14) mm, and (0.98±0.28)(0.62-1.36) mm. The length of the pedicle of the perforator vessels were (3.91±0.96)(2.15-5.78) cm, (5.34±0.50)(4.01-5.85) cm, and (3.31±1.15)(2.16-5.66) cm. The perforating branches in the 3 sections appeared constantly. The diameter of the vessels was≥0.5 mm with an average length of at(4.19±1.16)(2.15-5.85) cm. The vascular network of the flap in the posterolateral area of the calf was mainly composed of subdermal vascular network and deep fascial vascular network. The deep fascia vascular network in the posterolateral area of the calf had 3 obvious longitudinal chains, including the medial sural neurotrophic vascular chain, the small saphenous vein-sural nerve communicating branch vascular chain and the lateral sural neurotrophic vascular chain, which took the nutrient blood supply from the perforating branches of the peroneal artery also formed a longitudinal and transverse anastomosis between the perforating branches of the peroneal artery. In the clinical trials performed on 9 patients, all soft tissue defects of foot and ankle were repaired. The composite tissue flap survived without infection or necrosis. The follow-up was lasted for 12 months to 3 years. The postoperative function and the donor site appearance were good and the patients walked normally. According to the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Association(AOFAS) foot scoring standard, the function of affected feet were evaluated. Five patients were excellent and 4 were good.Conclusion:The cross-donor flaps pedicled with peroneal arteries and veins has sufficient blood supply and a large area. It provides a method for the repair of large-area soft tissue defects in the foot and ankle.

OBJECTIVES:
Although hysteroscopic adhesiolysis (HA) is the main treatment for intrauterine adhesion (IUA), postoperative management of IUA remains challenging because there is no consensus on how to mitigate the high rate of postoperative adhesions reformation. This study aims to compare the effectiveness and safety of 2 types of intrauterine stents with different thickness and hardness in treating moderate-to-severe IUA.
METHODS:
A retrospective clinical study was conducted in the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from November 2020 to July 2021. A total of 191 patients with moderate-to-severe IUA who received surgical treatment and placed intrauterine stents after HA to prevent recurrence of postoperative adhesions were included. According to the hardness and thickness of the intrauterine stents, the participants were divided into a case group (placed the novel thin intrauterine stent, n=62) and a control group (placed the conventional stent, n=129). After 2-3 menstrual cycles, a second-look hysteroscopy was performed, and the intrauterine stents were removed. The postoperative efficacy [the reduction of American Fertility Society (AFS) scores, the adhesions reformation rate, the changes in menstrual pattern, and the pregnancy rate during the follow-up], safety (the adverse events), and applicability (the difficulty of stent removal) were compared between the 2 groups.
RESULTS:
No significant differences in preoperative clinical characteristics were observed between the 2 groups (all P>0.05). The menstrual volume of all patients was increased after the treatment. The reduction of AFS scores and the menstruation recovery rate were not significantly different between the 2 groups (P=0.519 and P=0.272, respectively). Notably, there was no case of displacement in the case group, while the displacement rate of the control group was 2.3% (P=0.552). Moreover, there was no significant difference in abdominal pain or postoperative abnormal vaginal bleeding between the 2 groups (P=0.823 and P=0.851, respectively). However, the difficulty rate of removing the thinner stents was significantly lower than that of removing the traditional stent (21.0% vs 38.8%, P=0.014). During the follow-up for half a year of the postoperative period, the pregnancy rate did not differ significantly in the case and control groups (45.0% vs 34.6%, P=0.173).
CONCLUSIONS
The novel intrauterine stent shows noninferior efficacy and had a good safety profile compared with conventional stents in treating moderate-to-severe IUA. Importantly, it was more convenient to be removed without increasing the rate of displacement and detachment. Therefore, it could reduce the amount of damage to the endometrium and has higher applicability than conventional stents.

Objective:To establish the Sunitinib-resistant model GIST882-Rs.Methods:The intermittent concentration gradient doubling method was used to get Sunitinib-resistant cell line GIST 882-Rs. Changes of cell morphology were observed and compared under the opticalm icroscopy. Changes of cell cycle were assayed and compared by using flow cytometer. The growth curvature , half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) were calculated by using cell counting kit (CCK8) assay.Results:Significant changes occurred in the morphologic profiles, such as epithelioid shape, the increased ratio of nucleolus to cytoplasm, emerging multinucleated cel1 and increase of granule sub stances. IC50 for GIST882 and GIST 882-Rs were(127.50 ± 2.15) μmol and (23.98 ± 1.85) μmol, and there were significant differences ( P < 0.05). The resistance index of GIST882-Rs to Sunitinib was 5.30 fold of GIST882 cells. The cell cycle of GIST882 and GIST882- Rs was respectively 52.51% and 39.87% in S phase 25.22% and 32.32% in G 0/G 1 phase. Conclusions:The sensitivity of GIST 882-Rs to Sunitinib treatment is decreased significantly.
