文摘Background:Local treatments(including cryoablation)for liver tumors adjacent to the pericardium carry relatively high risks,and the safety,efficacy,and risk-benefit ratio of cryoablation specifically for tumors at this location all lack sufficient clinical validation.Methods:A retrospective case series was conducted involving 41 patients(20 males and 21 females)with a total of 45 liver tumors who underwent percutaneous CT-guided cryoablation between July 1,2021,and March 31,2025.The median age of the patients was 61 years(range:30-81 years).Tumor diameters were classified as≤10 mm(n=9),>10 to≤30 mm(n=25),and>30 to≤50 mm(n=11).All lesions were located within 10 mm of the pericardium.The technical success rate,local progression-free survival(LPFS),procedure-related adverse events,and risk-benefit analysis of this treatment were evaluated.Results:The technical success rate was 100%(45/45).The LPFS rates at 3,6,12,and 24 months were 95.56%,92.83%,77.12%,and 67.48%,respectively.No procedure-related mortality or major complications were observed.A total of 11(26.8%,11/41)minor complications requiring medical intervention were observed,including pneumothorax(n=2,5.3%),infection(n=2,5.3%),persistent vomiting(n=2,5.3%),postoperative fever(n=3,7.9%),and transient hepatic dysfunction(n=2,5.3%).The mean intraoperative visual analog scale pain score was 2.8±0.9.The average procedural duration was 60.8±14.1 min,with a mean cumulative dose length product of 3,058.9±1,725.4 mGy·cm.Conclusion:Preliminary research data suggest that CT-guided percutaneous cryoablation is technically feasible and demonstrates an acceptable safety profile for the treatment of liver tumors adjacent to the pericardium when the minimum distance exceeds 10 mm.
文摘The escalating global crisis of antibiotic resistance necessitates urgent development of novel antimicrobial agents.In this context,antimicrobial peptides(AMPs)derived from fish emerge as a highly promising strategic resource,owing to their unique structural diversity and the exceptional adaptability and tolerance conferred by evolutionary pressures in aquatic environments.This review systematically synthesizes key advances in fish-derived AMP research.It details their diverse sourcing avenues,encompassing tissues from live fish(e.g.,skin,mucus,gills,intestines)and processing byproducts(e.g.,scales,skins,viscera).The discussion covers efficient isolation,purification,and synthesis strategies,and critically examines their defining feature:unique multi-target synergistic antimicrobial mechanisms(including microbial membrane disruption,intracellular targeting,and immunomodulation),which contribute to a reduced propensity for resistance development.To address inherent limitations of natural AMPs(such as susceptibility to proteolysis and potential toxicity),the review highlights innovative optimization approaches,including computational-aided rational design,amino acid modification,cyclization,and hybrid peptide construction.Furthermore,the review elaborates on their significant application potential across crucial domains:food preservation(inhibiting spoilage organisms,extending shelf-life),sustainable aquaculture(as antibiotic alternatives,enhancing disease resistance,improving water quality),and the development of novel anti-infective therapeutics(particularly against drug-resistant infections).Therefore,this work aims to provide a comprehensive theoretical foundation and innovative strategic insights to foster in-depth research and the sustainable exploitation of this vital strategic biological resource.

文摘Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor among women globally and poses a major public health challenge due to limitations in traditional diagnostic and treatment processes,such as subjective interpretation biases and inefficient multidimensional data integration.Artificial intelligence(AI),particularly deep learning and machine learning technologies,has emerged as a transformative tool in addressing these issues.Clinically,AI has been widely applied in imaging screening to improve detection rates and reduce reading time,digital pathology for precise tumor typing and gene mutation prediction,treatment decisionsupport systems to enhance guideline compliance,and drug research and development to accelerate target identification and virtual screening.Despite these achievements,AI implementation faces challenges,such as data standardization issues,limited model generalization,low clinical accessibility,and unclear ethical-legal responsibilities,which require targeted solutions that include national data standards,multi-center training,hierarchical physician training,and explainable AI.Future directions involve multimodal data integration,human-AI collaborative multidisciplinary team models,and extension to full-cycle health management from prevention-to-rehabilitation.This review provides a systematic overview of the role of AI in breast cancer care,offering insights for clinical practice and scientific research innovation,and supporting the transition toward personalized and intelligent medicine in oncology.

文摘Peptide-and drug-protected gold nanoclusters(Au NCs)with atomic precision have attracted research attention in the last few years owing to their ultrasmall size(<2 nm),well-defined structures,tunable photoluminescence from the visible to near-infrared range,water solubility,and good biocompatibility.These features,combined with low toxicity and efficient renal clearance,make such Au NCs promising candidates for biomedical use,including diagnosis,therapy,and theranostic.The incorporation of peptides or drugs into Au NCs enhances the stability,targeting specificity,cellular uptake,and prolonged circulation,enabling precise modulation of biological responses.Despite notable advances in achieving atomic precision employing complex ligands such as peptides or drugs,the synthetic methods of this new class of NCs remain a challenge.Careful control of molar ratio(Au:peptide/drug),reducing agent,temperature,and reaction time is required,because these factors directly influence the cluster size,optical properties,and in vivo performance.In this review,we highlight different synthetic approaches of atomically precise peptide-and drug-protected Au NCs,emphasizing the role of rational ligand design and reaction conditions,as well as the challenges associated with structural determination.We further discuss the optical and photoluminescence properties of peptide-protected Au NCs-the mostly explored features for biomedical applications.Finally,we conclude by outlining the current challenges,opportunities for scale-up synthesis,and future design perspectives for these emerging nanomaterials.

文摘Network-on-Chip(NoC)systems are progressively deployed in connecting massively parallel megacore systems in the new computing architecture.As a result,application mapping has become an important aspect of performance and scalability,as current trends require the distribution of computation across network nodes/points.In this paper,we survey a large number of mapping and scheduling techniques designed for NoC architectures.This time,we concentrated on 3D systems.We take a systematic literature review approach to analyze existing methods across static,dynamic,hybrid,and machine-learning-based approaches,alongside preliminary AI-based dynamic models in recent works.We classify them into several main aspects covering power-aware mapping,fault tolerance,load-balancing,and adaptive for dynamic workloads.Also,we assess the efficacy of each method against performance parameters,such as latency,throughput,response time,and error rate.Key challenges,including energy efficiency,real-time adaptability,and reinforcement learning integration,are highlighted as well.To the best of our knowledge,this is one of the recent reviews that identifies both traditional and AI-based algorithms for mapping over a modern NoC,and opens research challenges.Finally,we provide directions for future work toward improved adaptability and scalability via lightweight learned models and hierarchical mapping frameworks.
