文摘In Unani medicine,Bawl(urine)is recognized as a key diagnostic tool,with humoural imbalances assessed via parameters like color,consistency,sediment,clarity,froth,odor,and volume.This conceptual review explores how these classical diagnostic indicators may be contextualized alongside modern urinalysis markers(e.g.,bilirubin,protein,ketones,and sedimentation)and examined through emerging artificial intelligence(AI)frameworks.Potential applications include ResNet-18 for color classification,You Only Look Once version 8(YOLOv8)for sediment detection,long short-term memory(LSTM)for viscosity estimation,and EfficientDet for froth analysis,with standardized urine images/videos forming the basis of future datasets.Additionally,a comparative ontology is proposed to align Unani perspectives with diagnostic approaches in traditional Chinese medicine,encouraging cross-system integration.By synthesizing classical epistemology with computational intelligence,this review highlights pathways for developing AI-based decision support systems to promote personalized,accessible,and telemedicine-enabled healthcare.

文摘Objective:To retrospectively evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of traditional MRI and T2 Mapping quantitative imaging technology for knee joint cartilage injury,clarify the differences in diagnostic value of the two imaging methods in different injury grades and different cartilage subregions,and provide evidence-based basis for the accurate diagnosis of clinical cartilage injury.Methods:Clinical and imaging data of 286 patients with knee joint lesions admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Xiangtan Medicine and Health Vocational College from January 2020 to June 2023 were collected retrospectively.All patients underwent both traditional MRI sequences and T2 Mapping sequences.The knee joint cartilage was divided into 14 subregions.Two senior radiologists independently diagnosed the images of the two imaging technologies using a blind method and recorded the cartilage injury grades.The sensitivity,specificity,accuracy,positive predictive value,negative predictive value,and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve(AUC)of the two technologies for diagnosing cartilage injury were calculated and compared,and the differences in their diagnostic efficacy in different injury grades and different subregions were analyzed.Results:A total of 4004 cartilage subregions from 286 patients were included in the analysis,including 1836 injured subregions and 2168 normal subregions.The overall sensitivity(89.7%),accuracy(91.2%),and AUC(0.946)of T2 Mapping quantitative imaging for diagnosing cartilage injury were significantly higher than those of traditional MRI(76.3%,82.5%,and 0.852 respectively),with statistically significant differences(p<0.001);there was no significant difference in specificity between the two(93.5%vs 90.8%,p=0.062).Subgroup analysis showed that T2 Mapping had the most significant diagnostic advantage in early cartilage injury(Grade 1),with sensitivity(78.5%)33.2%higher than that of traditional MRI(45.3%)(p<0.001).Conclusion:The diagnostic efficacy of T2 Mapping quantitative imaging for knee joint cartilage injury is significantly superior to that of traditional MRI,especially in the detection of early cartilage injury and accurate evaluation of weight-bearing area injury.Data verify its clinical applicability and reliability.It can be used as an important supplementary method to traditional MRI,and is recommended for the early diagnosis,grading evaluation,and clinical follow-up of cartilage injury.

文摘Oxidative stress significantly contributes to secondary damage after spinal cord injury.Despite its importance,research on oxidative stress in spinal cord injury remains limited.Investigating the expression and regulation of oxidative stress-related genes could enhance the diagnosis and treatment of spinal cord injury.In this study,we analyzed the sequencing data of human blood samples and injured mouse spinal cord tissue that were sourced from GEO databases and identified diagnostic biomarkers associated with the severity of spinal cord injury.We also explored the expression patterns of oxidative stress-related genes,potential regulatory mechanisms,and therapeutic drugs.To validate our findings,we performed immunofluorescence and quantitative polymerase chain reaction to assess gene expression in the injured spinal cord.Our results revealed biomarkers associated with oxidative stress and immune responses across different levels of spinal cord injury in humans.We identified differentially expressed oxidative stress-related genes and key hub genes in injured mouse spinal cord tissue and revealed their temporal expression patterns at both the tissue and single-cell levels.We also clarified the signaling pathways associated with oxidative stress and identified ligand-receptor pairs among various cell types at different time points after injury.Furthermore,we discovered microRNAs,long non-coding RNAs,and transcription factors that regulate these hub genes and revealed their roles in modulating gene expression at various stages after spinal cord injury.We also identified drugs targeting these hub genes.The findings from this study not only aid in identifying diagnostic biomarkers that reflect the severity of spinal cord injury,but also provide insights into the expression dynamics of oxidative stress-related genes.In addition,the study reveals potential regulatory mechanisms and identifies potential drugs to treat patients with spinal cord injury.
