文摘Background:The long-term outcomes of robotic-assisted surgery and the prognostic significance of the pretreatment neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR)in locally advanced rectal cancer(LARC)remain uncertain.This study aimed to assess the long-term outcomes of patients with LARC undergoing robotic-assisted surgery and to determine the prognostic value of pretreatment NLR.Methods:We retrospectively reviewed 252 patients with LARC who were treated at a single medical center in Taiwan between January 2012 and January 2023.All patients underwent neoadjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy(CRT)followed by robotic-assisted surgery with total mesorectal excision(TME).Patients were stratified into four groups on the basis of pretreatment NLRs and carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA)levels.Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to identify prognostic indicators for overall survival(OS)and disease-free survival(DFS).Results:Patients with a pretreatment NLR of≥3.2 exhibited significantly worse OS and DFS compared with those with an NLR of<3.2(OS:94.4 vs.116.5 months,p=0.001;DFS:78.8 vs.101.7 months,p=0.003).Group A exhibited the poorest prognosis,whereas Group D had the most favorable outcomes.Multivariate analysis revealed NLR≥3.2 as an independent predictor of poor OS(hazard ratio[HR]=2.306,95%CI:1.149-3.747;p=0.001)and DFS(HR=2.055,95%CI:1.341-3.148;p=0.001).Conclusion:Neoadjuvant concurrent CRT followed by robotic-assisted TME is an effective treatment strategy for LARC.A higher pretreatment NLR(≥3.2)independently predicted worse OS and DFS.Stratification using the NLR in combination with CEA levels may enhance prognostic accuracy for patients undergoing robotic-assisted surgery for LARC.

文摘Immunotherapy has brought unprecedented breakthroughs to advanced malignant tumors,yet the immune microenvironment shaped by the tumor stroma has often been underestimated in the traditional focus on the“immune checkpoint-T cell”axis.Collagen not only constitutes a mechanical barrier that distinguishes between the periphery and core of solid tumors but also systematically remodels the orientation of metabolism,vasculature,and immune cell phenotypic plasticity through its spatial density,fiber arrangement,and crosslinking patterns(F igure 1)[1,2].Abundant evidence suggests that over-accumulated types I and III collagen drive CD8+T cell exhaustion,NK cell functional inhibition,and tumor-associated macrophage polarization through ligand-receptor networks involving LAIR-1,DDR2,andβ1/β3 integrins[3-6].Mechanistically,collagen engagement of LAIR-1 delivers inhibitory signals in effector lymphocytes,promoting dysfunctional or exhausted states[7-9].In parallel,collagen-β1/β3 integrin signaling activates mechanotransduction pathways(e.g.,FAK/SRC),reducing T-cell motility and immune-tumor contact,while DDR2 activation supports matrix-remodeling programs that limit lymphocyte trafficking.

文摘Many spore-forming Bacillus species can cause serious human diseases,because of accidental Bacillusspore infection.Thus,developing an identification strategy with both high sensitivity and specificity is greatly in demand.In this work,we proposed a novel approach named multi-head self-attention mechanism-guided neural network Raman platform to identify living Bacillus spores within a single-cell resolution.The multi-head self-attention mechanism-guided neural network Raman platform was created by combining single-cell Raman spectroscopy,convolutional neural network(CNN),and multi-head self-attention mechanism.To address the limited size of the original spectra dataset,Gaussian noise-based spectra augmentation was employed to increase the number of single-cell Raman spectra datasets for CNN training.Owing to the assistance of both spectra augmentation and multi-head self-attention mechanism,the obtained prediction accuracy of five Bacillus spore species was further improved from 92.29±0.82%to 99.43±0.15%.To figure out the spectra differences covered by the multi-head self-attention mechanism-guided CNN,the relative classification weight from typical Raman bands was visualized via multi-head self-attention mechanism curve.In the process of spectra augmentation from 0 to 1000,the distribution of relative classification weight varied from a discrete state to a more concentrated phase.More importantly,these highlighted four Raman bands(1017,1449,1576,and 1660 cm^(-1))were assigned large weights,showing that the spectra differences in the Raman bands produced the largest contribution to prediction accuracy.It can be foreseen that,our proposed sorting platform has great potential in accurately identifying Bacillus and its related genera species at a single-cell level.

文摘Lateral movement represents the most covert and critical phase of Advanced Persistent Threats(APTs),and its detection still faces two primary challenges:sample scarcity and“cold start”of new entities.To address these challenges,we propose an Uncertainty-Driven Graph Embedding-Enhanced Lateral Movement Detection framework(UGEA-LMD).First,the framework employs event-level incremental encoding on a continuous-time graph to capture fine-grained behavioral evolution,enabling newly appearing nodes to retain temporal contextual awareness even in the absence of historical interactions and thereby fundamentally mitigating the cold-start problem.Second,in the embedding space,we model the dependency structure among feature dimensions using a Gaussian copula to quantify the uncertainty distribution,and generate augmented samples with consistent structural and semantic properties through adaptive sampling,thus expanding the representation space of sparse samples and enhancing the model’s generalization under sparse sample conditions.Unlike static graph methods that cannot model temporal dependencies or data augmentation techniques that depend on predefined structures,UGEA-LMD offers both superior temporaldynamic modeling and structural generalization.Experimental results on the large-scale LANL log dataset demonstrate that,under the transductive setting,UGEA-LMD achieves an AUC of 0.9254;even when 10%of nodes or edges are withheld during training,UGEA-LMD significantly outperforms baseline methods on metrics such as recall and AUC,confirming its robustness and generalization capability in sparse-sample and cold-start scenarios.

文摘BACKGROUND Paternal perinatal depression(PPD)is closely associated with maternal mental health challenges,marital strain,and adverse child developmental outcomes.Despite its significant impact,PPD remains under-recognized in family-centered clinical practice.Concurrently,against the backdrop of rising rates of delayed marriage and China’s Maternity Incentive Policy,the proportion of women giving birth at an advanced maternal age is increasing.Nevertheless,research specifically examining PPD among spouses of older mothers remains critically scarce,both in China and globally.AIM To investigate PPD and its influencing factors in Chinese advanced maternal age families.METHODS This cross-sectional study included 358 participants;it was conducted among fathers of pregnant women of advanced maternal age at five hospitals in the Pearl River Delta region of China from September 2023 to June 2024.Data were collected via a general information questionnaire,the Social Support Rating Scale,and the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale.Latent profile analysis and regression mixture models(RMMs)were adopted to analyze the latent PPD types and factors that influenced PPD.RESULTS The incidence of PPD was 16.48%,and three profiles were identified:Low-symptomatic(175 cases,48.89%),monophasic(140 cases,39.10%),and high-symptomatic(43 cases,12.01%).The RMM analysis revealed that first pregnancy,low income(<¥3000/month),part-time work,and a history of abnormal pregnancy were positively associated with the high-symptomatic type(P<0.05).Conversely,high subjective support and support utilization were negatively associated with the high-symptomatic type compared with the low-symptomatic type(P<0.05).Good couple relationships,high objective and subjective support,and high support utilization were negatively associated with monophasic disorder(P<0.05).CONCLUSION PPD incidence is high among Chinese fathers with advanced maternal age partners,and the characteristics of depression are varied.Healthcare practitioners should prioritize individuals with low levels of social support.

文摘In aerospace,nuclear power,and new energy vehicles industries,utilizing integrated metal components with extreme sizes and/or structures is crucial for achieving significant weight-saving,performance-improvement,and excellent reliability.These components,made from metal sheets,rings,or tubes,exhibit characteristics like ultra-thin,ultra-thick,ultra-large,ultra-long,ultra-high ribs,and large variable diameters.During plastic de-formation in metal forming processes,defects such as ruptures,wrinkles,excessive strain differences,and un-expected weak performance areas are likely to occur due to the intersection of multiple effects in different research disciplines,including materials science,processes,and mechanics of materials.Consequently,the smooth forming of integrated parts is difficult.It is the first time to review,summarize,and analyze the ad-vancement of forming methods for producing integrated parts with extreme sizes and structures.The general academic ideas to change the process conditions and sequences to optimize stress state and improve plastic deformation ability for forming the components with extreme sizes/structures are introduced.Practical ex-amples,discussed in detail in the paper,include the forming of(i)integrated ultra-thin and ultra-thick sheet components;(ii)integrated ultra-large size ring components with thin wall and high ribs;and(iii)integrated ultra-long tube components with large perimeter difference.Various plasticity technologies and process se-quences have been developed.The key processes and applications of the technologies are discussed in detail,which achieve successful plastic forming of integrated components.This paper provides state-of-the-art and perspectives for the rapidly advancing material forming fields of key metal components for the next generation of equipment.

文摘BACKGROUND:Prolonged on-scene Advanced Life Support(ALS) in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest(OHCA) patients may enhance return of spontaneous circulation(ROSC),but the optimal duration of cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) without initial prehospital ROSC remains unclear.We investigated the association between on-scene CPR duration and outcomes using nationwide data.METHODS:This prospective,multi-regional study(2015–2022) included medical cause OHCA patients who underwent Smart ALS(SALS).Data from emergency medical services(EMS) records,SALS logs,and hospital outcomes were analyzed.Logistic regression models were developed for prehospital ROSC,survival to discharge,and good neurological outcome(Cerebral Performance Category [CPC] 1–2).RESULTS:Among 98,569 patients,34,989 were SALS-eligible and 16,052 received SALS.Predictors of ROSC included younger age,male sex,public arrest,witnessed arrest,bystander CPR,shockable rhythm,and shorter response/scene times.Longer on-scene CPR reduced probabilities of ROSC,survival,and neurological recovery at hospital discharge.Model AUROCs were 0.697(95%CI 0.676–0.717) for ROSC,0.836(95%CI 0.810–0.861) for survival,and 0.925(95%CI 0.904–0.946) for neurological outcome.CONCLUSION:On-scene CPR duration is a critical prognostic factor in OHCA.The proposed models highlight on-scene predictors that may inform decisions about CPR continuation and support individualized resuscitation strategies.External validation in other EMS systems is warranted.
