OBJECTIVE: This study seeks to construct a machine learning model that merges clinical characteristics with ultrasound radiomic analysis-encompassing both the intratumoral and peritumoral-to predict the status of axillary lymph nodes in patients with early-stage breast cancer.
METHODS: The study employed retrospective methods, collecting clinical information, ultrasound data, and postoperative pathological results from 321 breast cancer patients (including 224 in the training group and 97 in the validation group). Through correlation analysis, univariate analysis, and Lasso regression analysis, independent risk factors related to axillary lymph node metastasis in breast cancer were identified from conventional ultrasound and immunohistochemical indicators, and a clinical feature model was constructed. Additionally, features were extracted from ultrasound images of the intratumoral and its 1-5 mm peritumoral to establish a radiomics feature formula. Furthermore, by combining clinical features and ultrasound radiomics features, six machine learning models (Logistic Regression, Decision Tree, Support Vector Machine, Extreme Gradient Boosting, Random Forest, and K-Nearest Neighbors) were compared for diagnostic efficacy, and constructing a joint prediction model based on the optimal ML algorithm. The use of Shapley Additive Explanations (SHAP) enhanced the visualization and interpretability of the model during the diagnostic process.
RESULTS: Among the 321 breast cancer patients, 121 had axillary lymph node metastasis, and 200 did not. The clinical feature model had an AUC of 0.779 and 0.777 in the training and validation groups, respectively. Radiomics model analysis showed that the model including the Intratumor +3 mm peritumor area had the best diagnostic performance, with AUCs of 0.847 and 0.844 in the training and validation groups, respectively. The joint prediction model based on the XGBoost algorithm reached AUCs of 0.917 and 0.905 in the training and validation groups, respectively. SHAP analysis indicated that the Rad Score had the highest weight in the prediction model, playing a significant role in predicting axillary lymph node metastasis in breast cancer.
CONCLUSION: The predictive model, which integrates clinical features and radiomic characteristics using the XGBoost algorithm, demonstrates significant diagnostic value for axillary lymph node metastasis in breast cancer. This model can provide significant references for preoperative surgical strategy selection and prognosis evaluation for breast cancer patients, helping to reduce postoperative complications and improve long-term survival rates. Additionally, the utilization of SHAP enhancing the global and local interpretability of the model.
As in humans, antibiotics are widely used in dogs to treat gastrointestinal infections, contributing to the global burden of antimicrobial resistance on both human and animal health. Close contact between pets and their owners can lead to horizontal transfer of gut microbes, including transmission of antibiotic resistance. Nevertheless, until now, the impact of antibiotics on the canine gut microbiota has been poorly described. The aim of this study was to adapt the canine mucosal artificial colon (CANIM-ARCOL) model, reproducing the main nutritional, physicochemical and microbial parameters found in the large intestine of the dog to simulate an antibiotic-induced perturbation. Following initial investigation of five antibiotic cocktails at in-field doses, a 5-day regimen of metronidazole/enrofloxacin (ME) was selected for further model development. Two CANIM-ARCOL bioreactors were inoculated with a faecal sample (n=2 donors) and run in parallel for 26 days under control or antibiotic conditions. ME reduced microbial diversity and induced major shifts in bacterial populations, leading to a state of dysbiosis characterized by an increase in the relative abundance of Streptococcaceae, Lactobacillaceae and Enterobacteriaceae, and a decrease in the relative abundance of Bacteroidaceae, Fusobacteriota and Clostridiaceae. Overall, mucus-associated microbiota were less impacted by antibiotics than luminal microbes. Microbial alterations were associated with drastic decreases in gas production and short-chain fatty acid concentrations. Finally, the model was well validated through in-vitro-in-vivo comparisons in a study in dogs. The CANIM-ARCOL model provides a relevant platform as an alternative to in-vivo assays for an in-depth understanding of antibiotic-microbiota interactions and further testing of restoration strategies at individual level.

PURPOSE:To improve whiteness or brightness of coloring, by irradiating a pharmaceutical with ultraviolet rays in operation to coat the outer surface of a drug with a coating layer, e.g. methyl cellulose, etc., and/or operation to dry the coating layer thereafter. CONSTITUTION:A pharmaceutical is irradiated with light including ultraviolet rays in operation to coat the outer surface of a drug with a coating layer, e.g. methyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, carboxymethyl ethyl cellulose, etc., and/or operation to dry the coating layer thereafter to improve whiteness or brightness of coloring without impairing strength of the coating layer. A mercury lamp is preferred as the light source and methods for irradiating with light by, e.g. installing the light source in the interior of a coating pan, and rotating the pan, etc., are adopted to as homogeneously and efficiently irradiate the pharmaceutical as possible. The pharmaceutical may be a tablet but also granule or powder.
### GENERAL

STRICT ASEPTIC TECHNIQUE IS MANDATORY. The vial should be shaken before use to ensure a uniform suspension. Prior to withdrawal, the suspension should be inspected for clumping or granular appearance (agglomeration). An agglomerated product results from exposure to freezing temperatures and should not be used. After withdrawal, Kenalog-40 Injection should be injected without delay to prevent settling in the syringe. Careful technique should be employed to avoid the possibility of entering a blood vessel or introducing infection.

### SYSTEMIC

For systemic therapy, injection should be made deeply into the gluteal muscle (see WARNINGS). For adults, a minimum needle length of 1½ inches is recommended. In obese patients, a longer needle may be required. Use alternative sites for subsequent injections.

### LOCAL

For treatment of joints, the usual intra-articular injection technique should be followed. If an excessive amount of synovial fluid is present in the joint, some, but not all, should be aspirated to aid in the relief of pain and to prevent undue dilution of the steroid.

With intra-articular administration, prior use of a local anesthetic may often be desirable. Care should be taken with this kind of injection, particularly in the deltoid region, to avoid injecting the suspension into the tissues surrounding the site, since this may lead to tissue atrophy.

In treating acute nonspecific tenosynovitis, care should be taken to ensure that the injection of the corticosteroid is made into the tendon sheath rather than the tendon substance. Epicondylitis may be treated by infiltrating the preparation into the area of greatest tenderness.

Pregnancy Category C. Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with allergenic extracts. It is also not known whether allergenic extracts can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman or can affect reproduction capacity. Allergenic extracts should be given to a pregnant woman only if clearly needed.

Controlled studies of hyposensitization with moderate to high doses of allergenic extracts in pregnant women have failed to demonstrate any risk to the mother or fetus. (7)

Initiation of effective immunotherapy may be beneficial if it allows a pregnant patient to forego medications during the first trimester when the fetus is more vulnerable to teratogenic agents, or if it contributes to better control of asthma so the fetus has less likelihood of being damaged by hypoxemia.

However, with histamines known ability to contract uterine muscles any reaction which would release significant amounts of histamine such as hyposensitization overdose should be avoided. The physician must weigh the benefits of immunotherapy against the risk of anaphylactic reactions that could result in harm to the mother and/or fetus.

Hyposensitization should be used during pregnancy only if clearly necessary and administered cautiously. If a woman is on maintenance dose the occurrence of pregnancy is not an indication to stop injection therapy.
Pediatric infectious diseases (PID) physicians prevent and treat childhood infections through clinical care, research, public health, education, antimicrobial stewardship, and infection prevention. This article is part of an American Board of Pediatrics Foundation-sponsored supplement investigating the future of the pediatric subspecialty workforce. The article offers context to findings from a modeling analysis estimating the supply of PID subspecialists in the United States between 2020 and 2040. It provides an overview of children cared for by PID subspecialists, reviews the current state of the PID workforce, and discusses the projected headcount and clinical workforce equivalents of PID subspecialists at the national, census region, and census division levels over this 2-decade period. The article concludes by discussing the education and training, clinical practice, policy, and research implications of the data presented. Adjusting for population growth, the PID workforce is projected to grow more slowly than most other pediatric subspecialties and geographic disparities in access to PID care are expected to worsen. In models considering alternative scenarios, decreases in the number of fellows and time spent in clinical care significantly affect the PID workforce. Notably, model assumptions may not adequately account for potential threats to the PID workforce, including a declining number of fellows entering training and the unknown impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and future emerging infections on workforce attrition. Changes to education and training, clinical care, and policy are needed to ensure the PID workforce can meet the future needs of US children.
Mutations in the protein superoxide dismutase-1 (SOD1) promote its misfolding and aggregation, ultimately causing familial forms of the debilitating neurodegenerative disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Currently, over 220 (mostly missense) ALS-causing mutations in the SOD1 protein have been identified, indicating that common structural features are responsible for aggregation and toxicity. Using in silico tools, we predicted amyloidogenic regions in the ALS-associated SOD1-G85R mutant, finding seven regions throughout the structure. Introduction of proline residues into β-strands II (I18P) or III (I35P) reduced the aggregation propensity and toxicity of SOD1-G85R in cells, significantly more so than proline mutations in other amyloidogenic regions. The I18P and I35P mutations also reduced the capability of SOD1-G85R to template onto previously formed non-proline mutant SOD1 aggregates as measured by fluorescence recovery after photobleaching. Finally, we found that, while the I18P and I35P mutants are less structurally stable than SOD1-G85R, the proline mutants are less aggregation-prone during proteasome inhibition, and less toxic to cells overall. Our research highlights the importance of a previously underappreciated SOD1 amyloidogenic region in β-strand II (15QGIINF20) to the aggregation and toxicity of SOD1 in ALS mutants, and suggests that β-strands II and III may be good targets for the development of SOD1-associated ALS therapies.
To attain native-like proficiency in second-language word usage, learners have to discover intricate semantic categories in the target language. We investigated the factors influencing the development of two aspects of second-language learners' semantic categories: the category center and category boundary of word meanings. In the experiment, second-language learners of Japanese, whose first language is Mandarin, were asked to produce the best verb for 28 videos depicting various cutting and breaking events. Descriptive analyses were conducted to compare the verb patterns used by second-language learners with those of native speakers. The second-language learners' verb use pattern suggested their struggle in delineating the semantic ranges of breaking verbs in a native-like manner. Model analyses further revealed that different factors contribute to learning two different aspects of word meanings. The learning category center of word meaning depended on the similarity between the lexical domains in the first and second languages. On the contrary, the success of learning the semantic boundaries of verbs required a large input frequency and smaller semantic coverage, and smaller category ambiguity. The results suggest that constructing a semantic domain in the second language should be evaluated from at least two different aspects of semantic representation.
The invention relates to a Qianliening pharmaceutical composition and a preparation method for a preparation of the Qianliening pharmaceutical composition. The method comprises the following steps of volatile oil extraction and clathration, water extraction and preparation forming. Compared with a preparation prepared by using a traditional method, ineffective impurities are removed from the pharmaceutical composition prepared by the preparation method, and under the condition of the same curative effect, the dose for patients is less. The Qianliening pharmaceutical composition is protected by adopting a beta-cyclodextrin clathration process, and thus, the stability of effective components of volatile oils is effectively ensured. On the premise that the pharmaceutical effect of an original preparation is kept, the Qianliening pharmaceutical composition prepared by the preparation method can be rapidly absorbed, and the effective components intensively reach focus parts, therefore, the effect is quick, and the bioavailability is high. The curative effect is improved by the pharmaceutical preparation prepared by the preparation method.
Accountable care organizations (ACOs) are often tasked with helping providers to deliver care efficiently and with higher quality outcomes. For an ACO to succeed in delivering efficient care, it is important to direct resources toward patients who exhibit the greatest levels of opportunity while focusing attention toward mitigating their needs. Home-based palliative care (HBPC) services are known to address patient needs for those with serious illness while decreasing the total cost of care (TCC). In this retrospective review, ACO researchers reviewed cost, quality, and utilization patterns for 3418 beneficiaries within a Medicare Shared Saving Program approaching the end of life comparing decedents who received HBPC versus those who did not receive the service. Those individuals who received HBPC services were significantly less likely to be hospitalized (51% reduction in the HBPC group), more likely to use hospice (70% vs. 43%; P = 0.001), and their TCC was less than that of those who did not receive the service ($27,203 vs. $36,089: P = 0.0163). Although more research needs to be done to understand the specific components of care delivery that are helpful in decreasing unnecessary utilization, in this retrospective review in an accountable care population, HBPC is associated with a significant decrease in cost and utilization in a population approaching end of life.
PURPOSE: Data on the prognostic impact of the micropapillary component in breast cancer are limited. The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinicopathological characteristics and long-term outcomes of pure and mixed invasive micropapillary breast cancer (IMPC) patients compared to invasive ductal cancer (IDC) patients.
METHODS: This retrospective study analysed all IMPC and IDC patients treated at the European Institute of Oncology (IEO) between 1997 and 2019. The overall cohort of IMPC patients was divided in two groups, pure and mixed IMPC. Each patient with mixed or pure IMPC was matched with one patient with IDC, based on year of surgery, age, pT, pN, and molecular subtype.
RESULTS: A total of 30,115 IDC, 120 pure IMPC and 150 mixed IMPC patients were considered eligible. Compared to IDC, pure and mixed IMPC patients presented a higher rate of locally advanced disease (pT2-T3, pN2-N3), vascular invasion, and Luminal B subtype. After matching, pure and mixed IMPC showed a significant higher rate of vascular invasion compared to IDC patients (p < 0.001). Invasive disease-free survival was better in IDC compared to pure IMPC patients (p = 0.11). Long-term overall survival was significantly worse in pure IMPC group compared to IDC group (p = 0.004), being instead similar between mixed IMPC vs matched IDC (p = 0.07).
CONCLUSION: These real-world data reported the worse prognosis of pure IMPC compared to IDC, highlighting the peculiar prognostic value of the micropapillary subtype itself in the decision-making process of IMPC management. An accurate pre-surgical diagnostic evaluation and a multidisciplinary approach are pivotal to best personalize its treatment.
The strength-training intervention will consist of 5-min warm-up, 40-min training, and 15-min cool-down. The 60-min sessions will be conducted 3 times/wk for 18 months. Every 2 weeks the load lifted will be adjusted so that the participants in this group are lifting 3 sets of each exercise at 75-90% of 1RM.
Congenital nephrotic syndrome (CNS) is a rare clinical syndrome with a constellation of proteinuria, hypoalbuminaemia and oedema, presenting within 3 months of birth. We present a rare case of neonatal nephrotic syndrome with a probable sepsis induced aetiology. The neonate was referred at day of life 15 with Klebsiella pneumonia sepsis and anasarca. On investigation, the patient had nephrotic range proteinuria, hypoalbuminaemia, generalised anasarca and ascites. The neonate was started on broad-spectrum antibiotics and furosemide. Genetic and other secondary causes of CNS were ruled out. With supportive management and resolution of sepsis, the neonate improved. This case highlights the rare cause of sepsis-induced nephrotic syndrome (NS), which required only supportive treatment without the need for aggressive management of CNS.
The surfactant sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate (AOT) forms reverse micelles and microemulsions using ethane and propane under near critical and supercritical conditions for systems consisting of 80 to 100 percent alkane by weight. Phase diagrams from view cell studies of microemulsion phases formed in supercritical fluids are reported and shown to be strongly dependent on pressure.  The properties of these solutions were also characterized by conductivity, density and surfactant solubility measurements.  The solubility of AOT in ethane and propane over a range of pressures shows behavior typical of solids in supercritical fluids.  The maximum water to surfactant ratio (Wo) increased dramatically in both ethane and propane systems as pressure was increased.  At 300 bar and 103°C, the supercritical propane-surfactant system is capable of solubilizing much more water (Wo = 12) than the supercritical ethane-surfactant system (Wo = 4) at 300 bar and 37°C. Some of the important thermodynamic contributions which are likely responsible for this pressure dependent phase behavior are discussed and potential applications of this new class of solvents are considered.  Other nonpolar and low polarity fluids in which near critical and supercritical reverse micelle systems can be formed include CO2, N2O, SF6, Xenon, alkenes (ethylene and propylene) and chlorinated or fluorinated hydrocarbons (CF3Cl and CF3H).
In both genders of rats, exenatide extended-release caused a dose-related and treatment-duration–dependent increase in the incidence of thyroid C-cell tumors (adenomas and/or carcinomas) at clinically relevant exposures compared to controls [see Nonclinical Toxicology (13.1)]. A statistically significant increase in malignant thyroid C-cell carcinomas was observed in female rats receiving exenatide extended-release at 27-times clinical exposure compared to controls and higher incidences were noted in males above controls in all treated groups at ≥2-times clinical exposure. The potential of exenatide extended-release to induce C-cell tumors in mice has not been evaluated. Other GLP-1 receptor agonists have also induced thyroid C-cell adenomas and carcinomas in male and female mice and rats at clinically relevant exposures. It is unknown whether BYDUREON BCISE will cause thyroid C-cell tumors, including medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC), in humans as the human relevance of exenatide extended-release-induced rodent thyroid C-cell tumors has not been determined.

Cases of MTC in patients treated with liraglutide, another GLP-1 receptor agonist, have been reported in the postmarketing period; the data in these reports are insufficient to establish or exclude a causal relationship between MTC and GLP-1 receptor agonist use in humans.

BYDUREON BCISE is contraindicated in patients with a personal or family history of MTC or in patients with MEN 2. Counsel patients regarding the potential risk of MTC with the use of BYDUREON BCISE and inform them of symptoms of thyroid tumors (e.g., a mass in the neck, dysphagia, dyspnea, persistent hoarseness).

Routine monitoring of serum calcitonin or using thyroid ultrasound is of uncertain value for early detection of MTC in patients treated with BYDUREON BCISE. Such monitoring may increase the risk of unnecessary procedures, due to the low specificity of serum calcitonin testing for MTC and a high background incidence of thyroid disease. Significantly elevated serum calcitonin may indicate MTC and patients with MTC usually have values >50 ng/L. If serum calcitonin is measured and found to be elevated, the patient should be further evaluated. Patients with thyroid nodules noted on physical examination or neck imaging should also be further evaluated.
