Multimodal ultrasound diagnosis of epididymo-orchitis with secondary testicular infarction: A case report.

We report a case of a 48-year-old man with testicular infarction caused by epididymo-orchitis (EO). Multimodal ultrasound showed extensive necrosis of the testis, and the patient underwent right orchiectomy. Postoperative pathology confirmed extensive necrosis of the testis.

Deep learning for screening primary osteopenia and osteoporosis using spine radiographs and patient clinical covariates in a Chinese population.

Purpose: Many high-risk osteopenia and osteoporosis patients remain undiagnosed. We proposed to construct a convolutional neural network model for screening primary osteopenia and osteoporosis based on the lumbar radiographs, and to compare the diagnostic performance of the CNN model adding the clinical covariates with the image model alone.

Methods: A total of 6,908 participants were collected for analysis, including postmenopausal women and men aged 50-95 years, who performed conventional lumbar x-ray examinations and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) examinations within 3 months.

Subtype Classification and Prognosis Signature Construction of Osteosarcoma Based on Cellular Senescence-Related Genes.

Background: Cellular senescence (CS) is an alternative procedure that replaces or reinforces inadequate apoptotic responses and is used as an influencing factor for a variety of cancers. The value of CS gene in evaluating the immunotherapy response and clinical outcome of osteosarcoma (OS) has not been reported, and an accurate risk model based on CS gene has not been developed for OS patients.

Methods: 279 CS genes were obtained from CellAge.

Case report: multi-modality imaging of a right ventricular fibroma in a teenager.

Background: Cardiac fibroma is a rare primary benign tumour of the heart. It often causes arrhythmia, endangers the lives of patients, and has a worse prognosis than other benign tumours. We report a 14-year-old female patient with a right ventricular fibroma.

An Efficacy and Feasibility Analysis of Chinese Patent Medicine Combined With Letrozole in the Treatment of Women With Ovulation Disorders: A Network Meta-Analysis.

To compare the efficacy of various listed Chinese patent medicines combined with letrozole in the treatment of ovulation disorders using network meta-analysis (NMA). We conducted a systematic literature search in PubMed, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Embase, Chinese Biomedical Literature, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang, and VIP Information databases up to June 2020. Randomized controlled trials reporting Chinese patent medicine combined with letrozole for ovulation disorders were included.

Identification of potential key genes associated with osteosarcoma based on integrated bioinformatics analyses.

Due to high rates of metastasis and poor clinical outcomes for patients, it is important to study the pathomechanisms of osteosarcoma. However, due to the fact that osteosarcoma shows significant interindividual variation and high heterogeneity, the identification of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) at the population level cannot answer many important questions related to osteosarcoma tumorigenesis. Therefore, a new strategy to identify dysregulated genes in osteosarcoma samples is required.

Tiaopi huxin recipe improved endothelial dysfunction and attenuated atherosclerosis by decreasing the expression of caveolin-1 in ApoE-deficient mice.

The Tiaopi Huxin recipe (TPHXR) is widely used in traditional Chinese medicine for the clinical treatment of coronary heart disease. However, the mechanism of TPHXR treatment of atherosclerosis (AS) has not been fully elucidated. In this study, we have aimed to explore the potential antiatherosclerotic effect of TPHXR and its underlying mechanisms.

[Analysis of clinical effects of parenterally administered shenqi fuzheng on renal function].

This study analyzes the clinical effects of parenterally administered Shenqi Fuzheng on renal function. 20 national, general hospitals were selected. Their hospital information system (HIS) data on 51 898 cases of parenterally administered Shenqi Fuzheng were mined for data.
