RESUMO

In response to the current challenges fire detection algorithms encounter, including low detection accuracy and limited recognition rates for small fire targets in complex environments, we present a lightweight fire detection algorithm based on an improved YOLOv5s. The introduction of the CoT (Contextual Transformer) structure into the backbone neural network, along with the creation of the novel CSP1_CoT (Cross stage partial 1_contextual transformer) module, has effectively reduced the model's parameter count while simultaneously enhancing the feature extraction and fusion capabilities of the backbone network; The network's Neck architecture has been extended by introducing a dedicated detection layer tailored for small targets and incorporating the SE (Squeeze-and-Excitation) attention mechanism. This augmentation, while minimizing parameter proliferation, has significantly bolstered the interaction of multi-feature information, resulting in an enhanced small target detection capability; The substitution of the original loss function with the Focal-EIoU (Focal-Efficient IoU) loss function has yielded a further improvement in the model's convergence speed and precision; The experimental results indicate that the modified model achieves an mAP@.5 of 96% and an accuracy of 94.8%, marking improvements of 8.8% and 8.9%, respectively, over the original model. Furthermore, the model's parameter count has been reduced by 1.1%, resulting in a compact model size of only 14.6MB. Additionally, the detection speed has reached 85 FPS (Frames Per Second), thus satisfying real-time detection requirements. This enhancement in precision and accuracy, while simultaneously meeting real-time and lightweight constraints, effectively caters to the demands of fire detection.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To explore the mechanisms of radiotherapy resistance and search for prognostic biomarkers for prostate cancer. METHODS: The GSE192817 and TCGA PRAD datasets were selected and downloaded from the GEO and UCSC Xena databases. Differential expression and functional annotation analyses were applied to 52 tumour cell samples from GSE192817. Then, the ssGSEA or GSVA algorithms were applied to quantitatively score the biological functional activity of samples in the GSE192817 and TCGA PRAD datasets, combined with specific gene sets collected from the Molecular Signatures Database (MSigDB). Subsequently, the Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used to compare the differences in ssGSEA or GSVA scores among cell types or PRAD patients. Moreover, radiotherapy resistance-associated gene screening was performed on DU145 and PC3 cells (prostate cancer cells), and survival analysis was used to evaluate the efficacy of these genes for predicting the prognosis of PRAD patients. RESULTS: A total of 114 genes that were differentially expressed in more than two different cancer cell types and associated with either sham surgery or radiotherapy treatment (X-ray or photon irradiation) were detected in cancer cells from GSE192817. Comparison of DNA damage-related ssGSEA scores between sham surgery and radiotherapy treatment in prostate cancer cells (DU145 and PC3) showed that photon irradiation was potentially more effective than X-ray treatment. In the TCGA PRAD dataset, patients treated with radiotherapy had much higher "GOBP_CELLULAR_RESPONSE_TO_DNA_DAMAGE_STIMULUS", "GOBP_G2_DNA_DAMAGE_CHECKPOINT" and "GOBP_INTRA_S_DNA_DAMAGE_CHECKPOINT" GSVA scores, and the Wilcoxon rank-sum test p values were 0.0005, 0.0062 and 0.0800, respectively. Furthermore, SRXN1 was upregulated in DU145 cells (resistant to X-ray irradiation compared to PC3 cells) after radiotherapy treatment, and low SRXN1 expression in patients was beneficial to radiotherapy outcomes. The log-rank test p value for PFS was 0.0072. CONCLUSIONS: Radiotherapy can damage DNA and induce oxidative stress to kill tumour cells. In this study, we found that SRXN1, as an antioxidative stress gene, plays an important role in radiotherapy for prostate cancer treatment, and this gene is also a potential biomarker for predicting the prognosis of patients treated with radiotherapy.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Among malignant tumors, bone metastasis is frequently associated with prostate cancer which is seen in about 80% of patients. During cancer treatments, some tumor cells switch to a "dormant mode" to help tumor cells avoid attack from the immune system and anti-tumor therapies. In this dormant mode, tumor cells can be resuscitated, causing cancer to reoccur. The generally accepted explanation for this phenomenon is that the tumor cells have spread to the bone marrow before treatment and are dormant in the bone marrow. However, the key mechanism for inducing and maintaining the dormancy of these prostate cancer disseminated tumor cells in the bone marrow is still unclear. Therefore, studying the dormancy mechanism of tumor cells in bone metastasis is of great significance for the treatment and the prevention of recurrence of prostate cancer. METHODS: We obtained single-cell RNA-seq data of tumors from mouse models of prostate cancer bone metastasis mouse model numbered (GSE147150) from the GEO database, and obtained RNA-seq expression data and clinical information from The Cancer Genome Atlas Program (TCGA) of prostate cancer patients from the USCS Xena database. Screening of differential genes and annotation of GO functions were performed separately. Subsequently, the screened differential genes were compared and analyzed with 50 classic Hallmark signaling pathways, and the prognosis analysis of prostate cancer patients in TCGA data was performed to discover the key genes of the dormant mechanism of tumor cells in bone metastasis, and obtain new biomarkers that can be used to predict the prognosis of patients. RESULTS: A total of 378 differentially expressed genes were screened, of which 293 were significantly up-regulated and 85 were significantly down-regulated. Among them, the up-regulated genes were mainly related to the immune response, and the down-regulated genes were mainly related to the cell cycle. Through GSVA (Gene set variation analysis), it is found that there are differences in a total of 3 signal pathways: COMPLEMENT, MYC_TARGETS_V1 and MYC_TARGETS_V2. By comparing and analyzing the significantly down-regulated genes in dormant tumor cells with MYC_TARGETS_V1, MYC_TARGETS_V2, three significantly down-regulated genes were obtained: Ccna2, Mad2L1 and Plk1. CONCLUSION: In summary, our findings indicate that the MYC targeting gene Mad2L1 is potentially related to the dormancy mechanism of prostate cancer. At the same time, Mad2L1, a gene associated with dormant prostate cancer cells, may be used as a biomarker for prognostic survival.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To explore the mechanism of Salidroside regulating the phenotypic transformation of cavernous smooth muscle cells (CCSMCs) in rats. METHODS: Primary CCSMCs were isolated from male SD rats, cultured in hypoxic environment for 24 hours, and treated with Salidroside at 30 µg/mL. Then the expressions of HIF-1α, platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) and phenotypic transformation-related proteins α-SMA and Collagen I were detected by Western blot. The culture system of the CCSMCs was treated with exogenous PDGF-BB at 20 ng/mL for 24 hours, and the effects of Salidroside or PDGFR inhibitor Crenolanib (100 nmol/L) were observed. The expressions of PDGFR, phosphorylated PDGFR, phenotypic transformation-related proteins α-SMA and Collagen I, STAT3, phosphorylated STAT3, STAT5 and phosphorylated STAT5 were determined by Western blot. The intervention effects of Salidroside and/or the overexpression of STAT3 were observed after stimulation of the CCSMCs by exogenous PDGF-BB, followed by detection of the expressions of phenotypic transformation-related proteins α-SMA and Collagen I, STAT3 and phosphorylated STAT3 proteins. RESULTS: The expression of HIF-1α in the CCSMCs was significantly upregulated after cultured in hypoxic environment for 24 hours (P < 0.05), suggesting the successful construction of the hypoxia model of CCSMCs. Meanwhile, the expressions of PDGFRα, PDGFRß and Collagen I were remarkably increased (all P < 0.05), and that of α-SMA markedly decreased (P < 0.05) in the CCSMCs. However, the expressions of the all the proteins above were significantly inhibited by Salidroside intervention (all P < 0.05). After stimulated by exogenous PDGF-BB for 24 hours, the phosphorylation ratios of PDGFRα, PDGFRß and STAT3 and the expression of Collagen I were significantly elevated (all P < 0.05), that of α-SMA remarkably reduced (P < 0.05), and all were inhibited by intervention with crenolanib or Salidroside (all P < 0.05). No statistically significant difference was observed in the STAT5 phosphorylation ratio between different groups (P > 0.05). Overexpression of STAT3 in the CCSMCs treated with exogenous PDGF-BB and Salidroside significantly decreased the expression of α-SMA (P < 0.05) and increased that of Collagen I (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Salidroside could improve the phenotypic transformation of CCSMCs in male rats through the PDGFR/STAT3 signaling pathway, which needs further exploration and verification.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Prostatitis caused by Brucella infection is rare and usually lacks typical lower urinary tract symptoms. However, Brucella infection can cause serum prostate-specific antigen levels to become abnormally elevated. When concurrent with lumbar vertebra infection and erosion, brucellosis can easily be misdiagnosed as prostate cancer with bone metastasis. CASE SUMMARY: A 45-year-old man complained of recurrent low back pain and fever for 2 wk. Magnetic resonance imaging of the lumbar vertebrae showed abnormal signs at the rear of the L4-5 vertebral body. Serum prostate-specific antigen level was 17.64 ng/mL, and positron emission tomography/computed tomography suggested the possibility of prostate cancer with liver and lumbar metastases. The patient was transferred to our department for further treatment. He experienced repeated bouts of fever and low back pain during hospitalization. Biopsy results indicated prostatitis. There was no significant increase in white blood cell count or procalcitonin levels. The Mycobacterium tuberculosis smear and antibody detection results were negative. Cefoperazone sulbactam was not effective. Blood culture test results were positive for brucellosis, confirming the diagnosis of brucellosis. After oral anti-infection treatment with doxycycline and rifampicin, the body temperature gradually returned to normal, and lumbago improved. After continuous treatment for 6 mo, the patient recovered. CONCLUSION: In patients with low back pain and fever accompanied by elevated prostate-specific antigen levels and lesions of the prostate and lumbar spine, a detailed medical history and blood and urine cultures should be obtained, and attention should be given to the local epidemic infectious disease situation.

RESUMO

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of plasmakinetic resection of the prostate (PKRP) versus transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) for the treatment of patients with benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH), a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials was carried out. We searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and the Cochrane Library. The pooled estimates of maximum flow rate, International Prostate Symptom Score, operation time, catheterization time, irrigated volume, hospital stay, transurethral resection syndrome, transfusion, clot retention, urinary retention and urinary stricture were assessed. There was no notable difference in International Prostate Symptom Score between TURP and PKRP groups during the 1-month, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months follow-up period, while the pooled Q max at 1-month favored PKRP group. PKRP group was related to a lower risk rate of transurethral resection syndrome, transfusion and clot retention, and the catheterization time and operation time were also shorter than that of TURP. The irrigated volume, length of hospital stay, urinary retention and urinary stricture rate were similar between groups. In conclusion, our study suggests that the PKRP is a reliable minimal invasive technique and may anticipatorily prove to be an alternative electrosurgical procedure for the treatment of BPH.
