Shugan Jieyu capsule effects on peripheral blood micro-124, micro-132, and brain-derived neurotrophic factor in patients with mild to moderate depression.

BACKGROUND: To assess the effectiveness of Shugan Jieyu capsules on peripheral blood miR-124, miR-132, and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) levels in patients with mild to moderate depression following coronary artery intervention [percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)] for coronary heart disease. AIM: To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of Shugan Jieyu capsules and their effects on the peripheral blood levels of miR-124, miR-132, and BDNF in patients with mild to moderate depression following PCI for coronary heart disease. METHODS: Patients with mild-to-moderate depression of the liver-qi stagnation type after PCI for coronary heart disease at the 305th Hospital of the People's Liberation Army were enrolled from June 2022 to November 2023 and randomly assigned to two groups: Experimental (treated with Shugan Jieyu capsules) and control (treated with escitalopram oxalate tablets). This study compared the antidepressant effects of these treatments using 17-item Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD-17) scores, metabolic equivalents, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, BDNF, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein levels, miR-124 and miR-132 levels, distribution of immune-related lymphocyte subsets, and traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores before and after 6 weeks of treatment. RESULTS: No significant difference was observed in any index between the two groups before treatment (P > 0.05). After treatment, the total efficacy rates were 93.33% and 90.00% in the experimental and control groups, respectively. Experimental group had significantly lower scores for the main and secondary syndromes compared to the control group (P < 0.05). No significant difference was observed in the metabolic equivalents between the two groups before and after treatment (P > 0.05). The levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, and miR-132 were significantly lower, whereas those of miR-124, BDNF, CD3+T lymphocytes, CD3+CD4+T helper lymphocytes, and CD3+CD4+/CD3+CD8+ cells were significantly higher in the experimental group compared to the control group (P < 0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions during experimental group was significantly lower than that in control group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Shugan Jieyu capsules have good efficacy in patients with mild-to-moderate depression after PCI, and its mechanism may contribute to the regulation of miR-124, miR-132, BDNF levels, and lymphoid immune cells.

Research progress on ultrasound and molecular markers for prenatal diagnosis of neural tube defects.

Neural tube defects (NTDs) are severe congenital anomalies that result from the failure of early neural tube closure during fetal neurogenesis. They are the most common and severe congenital malformations of the central nervous system. Identifying reliable prenatal diagnostic ultrasound and molecular markers that can predict NTDs is of paramount importance. Early diagnosis of NTDs allows embryonic treatment and prevention strategies, which are crucial for reducing the disability rate associated with these malformations, reducing the burden on individuals and on society. The purpose of this comprehensive review was to summarize the ultrasound biomarkers between 11 and 13 weeks of gestation and the molecular biomarkers used in the diagnosis of NTDs, providing additional insights into early screening for NTDs.

A diverse Fusarium community is responsible for contamination of rice with a variety of Fusarium toxins.

Rice plays an important role in the daily diet in China and therefore its quality and safety have been of great concern. However, few systematic studies have investigated Fusarium community and toxins in rice grains. Here, we collected 1381 rice samples from Jiangsu Province in eastern China and found a higher frequency of zearalenone (ZEN), deoxynivalenol (DON), fumonisins (FBs), and beauvericin (BEA). The positive samples were individually contaminated with a minimum of one and a maximum of ten toxins. Fusarium was isolated and identified as the major fungus, which exhibited temporal and geographical distribution. The most prevalent species complexes within this genus were Fusarium incarnatum-equiseti species complex (FIESC), Fusarium fujikuroi species complex (FFSC), and Fusarium sambucinum species complex (FSAMSC). Nevertheless, the amplicon sequence analysis revealed a low relative abundance of Fusarium in the rice panicles, and the fungal community exhibited an irregular change along with the symptom's emergence. In vitro toxigenic profiles of Fusarium strains showed significant complexity and specificity depending on the type and content. FIESC strains were non-pathogenic to wheat heads and weakly pathogenic to maize ears, respectively, accumulating lower amounts of toxins than F. asiaticum and F. fujikuroi. There was no significant variation in the ability to cause panicle blight in rice among the various species tested. Our study provides detailed information about the contamination of Fusarium toxins and community in rice after harvest. This information is valuable for understanding the relationship between Fusarium and rice and for developing effective control strategies.

Evaluation of tissue conditioner-assisted complete denture restoration: A randomized controlled clinical trial.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the clinical effect of three impression methods, conventional, closed-mouth, and tissue conditioner, on complete denture fabrication. METHODS: 60 subjects (edentulous with severely resorbed alveolar ridges - Atwood classification III or IV) who visited the Prosthodontic Department of Wuxi Stomatology Hospital, China, between January 2022 and June 2023, were selected for this study. The subjects were randomly divided into three groups of 20: a conventional impression group (CI group), a closed-mouth impression group (CM group), and a tissue conditioner group (TC group). Three months after denture restoration was completed, denture quality was assessed by clinicians in terms of marginal extension, retention, and stability. In addition, patients completed the oral health impact profile-edentulous (OHIP-EDENT) questionnaire to provide subjective satisfaction evaluations of the final denture restoration outcomes. RESULTS: The comprehensive denture quality evaluation results showed that the TC group had the lowest score, which was significantly lower than that of the CM (P= 0.014) and CI (P< 0.001) groups. The average score of the CM group was also significantly lower than that of the CI group (P= 0.004), indicating that tissue conditioner restoration was the most effective method. The OHIP-EDENT scores gradually decreased across the groups from CI to CM to TC (P= 0.001), indicating patients' oral health was significantly improved using tissue conditioner. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Tissue conditioner is a suitable dynamic functional impression method. It can significantly improve the effects for edentulous patients and increase their satisfaction.

Validation of the Chinese orthostatic discriminant and Severity Scale (ODSS) for detection of orthostatic intolerance syndrome.

Background: Orthostatic intolerance (OI) is the inability to tolerate orthostatic stress during any postural change. The etiology of OI varies, and methods to obtain a specific diagnosis and plan appropriate treatment are important. The tools available within the Chinese context to swiftly identify orthostatic intolerance syndrome (OIS) are currently limited. Methods: Patients with OI symptoms were included in this study and categorized into two groups based on the results of the supine-to-stand test. Those with abnormal test results were assigned to the OIS group, while those with normal test results were placed in the non-OIS group. We evaluated the internal consistency and predictive value of the Chinese Orthostatic Discriminant and Severity Scale (ODSS) by comparing patients' scores with their physiological measurements collected during orthostatic stress tests and the results of other available questionnaires, including the orthostatic Symptom Questionnaire and Orthostatic Grading Scale (OGS). Results: Patients with OIS scored significantly higher on all three questionnaires and showed significant differences in autonomic responses during orthostatic stress tests compared with non-OIS patients. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that the orthostatic score from the ODSS had moderate predictive value for the supine test (area under the curve [AUC] = 0.754). Further subgroup analysis revealed that the orthostatic score from the ODSS had uniquely high specificity and sensitivity for identifying patients with orthostatic hypotension with abnormal cerebral blood flow (OH-U, AUC = 0.919). Conclusions: We conclude that the Chinese version of the ODSS has sufficient reliability and validity to distinguish patients with OIS and could possibly be used as a diagnostic tool for OH-U patients. Thus, the Chinese ODSS offers a beneficial screening tool for quickly assessing whether patients have OIS that requires further clinical assessment.

Exploring the immunometabolic potential of Danggui Buxue Decoction for the treatment of IBD-related colorectal cancer.

Danggui Buxue (DGBX) decoction is a classical prescription composed of Astragali Radix (AR) and Angelicae Sinensis Radix (ASR), used to enrich blood, and nourish Qi in Chinese medicine, with the potential to recover energy and stimulate metabolism. Chronic inflammation is a risk factor in the development of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)-related colorectal cancer (CRC). More importantly, AR and ASR have anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer activities, as well as prefiguring a potential effect on inflammation-cancer transformation. We, therefore, aimed to review the immunometabolism potential of DGBX decoction and its components in this malignant transformation, to provide a helpful complement to manage the risk of IBD-CRC. The present study investigates the multifaceted roles of DGBX decoction and its entire components AR and ASR, including anti-inflammation effects, anti-cancer properties, immune regulation, and metabolic regulation. This assessment is informed by a synthesis of scholarly literature, with more than two hundred articles retrieved from PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus databases within the past two decades. The search strategy employed utilized keywords such as "Danggui Buxue", "Astragali Radix", "Angelicae Sinensis Radix", "Inflammation", and "Metabolism", alongside the related synonyms, with a particular emphasis on high-quality research and studies yielding significant findings. The potential of DGBX decoction in modulating immunometabolism holds promise for the treatment of IBD-related CRC. It is particularly relevant given the heterogeneity of CRC and the growing trend towards personalized medicine, but the precise and detailed mechanism necessitate further in vivo validation and extensive clinical studies to substantiate the immunometabolic modulation and delineate the pathways involved.

Revealing the key antioxidant compounds and potential action mechanisms of Chinese Cabernet Sauvignon red wines by integrating UHPLC-QTOF-MS-based untargeted metabolomics, network pharmacology and molecular docking approaches.

In recent years, red wine drinking has become more popular in China owing to its antioxidant effects. However, the key antioxidant compounds and their action mechanisms of Chinese red wines are still unclear. Herein, the antioxidant activities and chemical compositions of 45 Chinese Cabernet Sauvignon red wine samples were determined using chemical antioxidant assays and an UHPLC-QTOF-MS-based untargeted metabolomics method. The key antioxidant compounds in red wines and potential action mechanisms were revealed by integrating network pharmacology and molecular docking approaches. Results showed that there are 8 key antioxidant compounds in the red wine samples. These compounds are involved in several metabolic pathways in the body, particularly PI3K/AKT. What's more, they bind to the core antioxidant targets through hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interaction. Among them, myricetin, laricitrin, 2,3,8-tri-O-methylellagic acid and AKT1 have the highest binding energies. This study could provide the theoretical basis for further investigation of physiological activities and functions of Chinese red wines.

Disruption of DNA-PKcs-mediated cGAS retention on damaged chromatin potentiates DNA damage-inducing agent-induced anti-multiple myeloma activity.

BACKGROUND: Targeting DNA damage repair factors, such as DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs), may offer an opportunity for effective treatment of multiple myeloma (MM). In combination with DNA damage-inducing agents, this strategy has been shown to improve chemotherapies partially via activation of cGAS-STING pathway by an elevated level of cytosolic DNA. However, as cGAS is primarily sequestered by chromatin in the nucleus, it remains unclear how cGAS is released from chromatin and translocated into the cytoplasm upon DNA damage, leading to cGAS-STING activation. METHODS: We examined the role of DNA-PKcs inhibition on cGAS-STING-mediated MM chemosensitivity by performing mass spectrometry and mechanism study. RESULTS: Here, we found DNA-PKcs inhibition potentiated DNA damage-inducing agent doxorubicin-induced anti-MM effect by activating cGAS-STING signaling. The cGAS-STING activation in MM cells caused cell death partly via IRF3-NOXA-BAK axis and induced M1 polarization of macrophages. Moreover, this activation was not caused by defective classical non-homologous end joining (c-NHEJ). Instead, upon DNA damage induced by doxorubicin, inhibition of DNA-PKcs promoted cGAS release from cytoplasmic chromatin fragments and increased the amount of cytosolic cGAS and DNA, activating cGAS-STING. CONCLUSIONS: Inhibition of DNA-PKcs could improve the efficacy of doxorubicin in treatment of MM by de-sequestrating cGAS in damaged chromatin.

Aloe vera and tea polyphenols composite coating delays passion fruit senescence by promoting phenolic and flavonoid accumulation.

Passion fruits are highly perishable during postharvest storage and transportation, prompting the exploration of natural preservatives. This study investigates the synergistic effects of Aloe vera (ALV) and tea polyphenols (TP) coatings on quality retention, ripening modulation, and associated regulatory mechanisms in stored "golden" passion fruit (Passiflora spp.) at 10 °C. The application of a composite coating comprising 40 % ALV and 0.1 g/L TP led to notable improvements in fruit preservation over a 28-day storage period. At the day of 28, quantitatively, the ALV + TP treatment reduced weight loss by 41.60 %, shrinkage index by 28.13 %, and decay index by 50 %, significantly outperforming the control and individual treatments; the treated fruits exhibited enhanced firmness, reduced ethylene production, and the respiration peak was delayed about 6 days. Metabolomic analysis revealed pronounced alterations in key metabolic pathways, notably phenylpropanoid and flavonoid biosynthesis. Specifically, significant increases in metabolites such as phenolic acids (Feruloylmalic acid and Acropyrone) and flavonoids (Okanin-4'-O-glucoside, Apigenin-8-C-Arabinoside, Quercetin-3-O- (2'-O-galloyl) galactoside, and Catechin callate) were observed. Concurrently, transcript levels of key biosynthetic genes including cinnamate 4-hydroxylase (PeC4H), 4-coumarate-coenzyme a ligase (PeC4L), hydroxycinnamoyl transferase (PeHCT) and flavonol synthase (PeFLS) were significantly up-regulated by ALV + TP coating, indicating a robust activation of these pathways. The findings underscore the effectiveness of the ALV + TP composite coating as an environmentally friendly strategy for enhancing postharvest quality by promoting the accumulation of beneficial phenolic acids and flavonoids in passion fruits.

Left Ventricular Papillary Muscle: Anatomy, Pathophysiology, and Multimodal Evaluation.

As an integral part of the mitral valve apparatus, the left ventricle papillary muscle (PM) controls mitral valve closure during systole and participates in the ejection process during left ventricular systole. Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the most immediate and predominant result when the PM is structurally or functionally abnormal. However, dysfunction of the PM is easily underestimated or overlooked in clinical interventions for MR-related diseases. Therefore, adequate recognition of PM dysfunction and PM-derived MR is critical. In this review, we systematically describe the normal anatomical variations in the PM and the pathophysiology of PM dysfunction-related diseases and summarize the commonly used parameters and the advantages and disadvantages of various noninvasive imaging modalities for the structural and functional assessment of the PM.

Flexible Janus Black Silicon Photothermal Conversion Membranes for Highly Efficient Solar-Driven Interfacial Water Purification.

Photothermal conversion materials are critical in the development of solar-driven interfacial evaporation techniques; however, achieving a high energy conversion efficiency remains challenging owing to the high cost and instability of light-absorbing materials, in addition to the difficulties of simultaneously improving light absorption while suppressing heat loss. A black silicon (Si) powder with a porous structure was prepared by chemical etching of a low-cost commercial micron-sized Al-Si alloy, and a flexible Janus black Si photothermal conversion membrane was constructed. The partially broken spherical particles and porous structure obtained after etching enhanced the refraction of light from the Si powder, imparting the prepared membrane with an average light absorption rate of 95.95% over the solar spectrum. Evaporation from the membrane increased the intermediate water content and reduced the equivalent evaporation enthalpy. The thermal conduction loss was inhibited through a one-dimensional water transport structure, and the membrane achieved a water evaporation rate of 2.17 kg m-2 h-1 and a photothermal efficiency of 94.95% under 1 sun illumination. Benefiting from the broadband absorption and high photothermal efficiency of black Si powder, surface modification of hydrophobic polydimethylsiloxane, and directional salt-out structure design, the evaporation rate of the Janus black Si membrane-based system in a 10% NaCl solution was maintained >2.10 kg m-2 h-1 after 7 days of continuous evaporation cycles. The removal rate of metal ions from simulated seawater and from practical wastewater containing complex heavy metals reached >99.9%, indicating the promising potential of black Si membrane for application in solar-driven interfacial water purification.

Unveiling the structural properties and induced resistance activity in rice of Chitin/Chitosan-Glucan Complex of Rhizoctonia solani AG1 IA inner cell wall.

Phytopathogen cell wall polysaccharides have important physiological functions. In this study, we isolated and characterized the alkali-insoluble residue on the inner layers of the Rhizoctonia solani AG1 IA cell wall (RsCW-AIR). Through chemical composition and structural analysis, RsCW-AIR was mainly identified as a complex of chitin/chitosan and glucan (ChCsGC), with glucose and glucosamine were present in a molar ratio of 2.7:1.0. The predominant glycosidic bond linkage of glucan in ChCsGC was ß-1,3-linked Glcp, both the α and ß-polymorphic forms of chitin were presented in it by IR, XRD, and solid-state NMR, and the ChCsGC exhibited a degree of deacetylation measuring 67.08 %. RsCW-AIR pretreatment effectively reduced the incidence of rice sheath blight, and its induced resistance activity in rice was evaluated, such as inducing a reactive oxygen species (ROS) burst, leading to the accumulation of salicylic acid (SA) and the up-regulation of SA-related gene expression. The recognition of RsCW-AIR in rice is partially dependent on CERK1.

In Situ Sprayed Exosome-Cross-Linked Gel as Artificial Lymph Nodes for Postoperative Glioblastoma Immunotherapy.

One key challenge in postoperative glioblastoma immunotherapy is to guarantee a potent and durable T-cell response, which is restricted by the immunosuppressive microenvironment within the lymph nodes (LNs). Here, we develop an in situ sprayed exosome-cross-linked gel that acts as an artificial LN structure to directly activate the tumor-infiltrating T cells for prevention of glioma recurrence. Briefly, this gel is generated by a bio-orthogonal reaction between azide-modified chimeric exosomes and alkyne-modified alginate polymers. Particularly, these chimeric exosomes are generated from dendritic cell (DC)-tumor hybrid cells, allowing for direct and robust T-cell activation. The gel structure with chimeric exosomes as cross-linking points avoids the quick clearance by the immune system and thus prolongs the durability of antitumor T-cell immunity. Importantly, this exosome-containing immunotherapeutic gel provides chances for ameliorating functions of antigen-presenting cells (APCs) through accommodating different intracellular-acting adjuvants, such as stimulator of interferon genes (STING) agonists. This further enhances the antitumor T-cell response, resulting in the almost complete elimination of residual lesions after surgery. Our findings provide a promising strategy for postsurgical glioma immunotherapy that warrants further exploration in the clinical arena.

Risk factors for suspected pulmonary embolism in children: Complication of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia.

PURPOSE: Pulmonary embolism (PE) is not a rare complication of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) in children. We sought to determine the incidence of PE in children with MPP who underwent clinically indicated CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) and to evaluate the risk factors for PE. METHODS: All 106 children with MPP who were clinically suspected of having PE and who underwent CTPA were retrospectively enrolled from June 2018 to December 2021. The clinical features, laboratory data, and radiological parameters were recorded (e.g., lung consolidation involved and the Qanadli score). A Cox proportional hazards model and area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve were used to evaluate the risk factors and prognostic discriminatory capacity for PE. RESULTS: PE was detected in 26 of 106 (24.5 %) children (mean age, 6.2 years ± 3.3 years; 53 boys). Sixteen of the 26 (61.5 %) children with PE were boys. The mean age of the children with PE was 8.1 ± 2.9 years, and the mean Qanadli score was 15.3 ± 10.2. Children with PE had higher D-dimer levels (9.3 ± 7.1 mg/Lvs. 3.6 ± 3.8 mg/L) and a greater frequency of lung lobe consolidation (25 (96.2 %) vs. 64 (80.0 %)) (all P < 0.05). For children with MPP, age (hazard ratio (HR) = 1.96 (95 % CI1.04, 3.71; P = 0.037), D-dimer level (HR = 1.52, 95 % CI: 1.03, 2.24; P = 0.029), and bilateral lung consolidation (HR = 2.41, 95 % CI: 1.03, 5.58; P = 0.043) were found to be independent predictors of PE. CONCLUSION: Clinical and CT radiological predictors could be used to predict PE in children with MPP. The use of risk factor assessment as a tool has the potential to guide more appropriate use of CTPA in children.

Efficient Electrochemical Microsensor for the Simultaneous Measurement of Hydrogen Peroxide and Ascorbic Acid in Living Brains.

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and ascorbic acid (AA), acting as two significant indicative species, correlate with the oxidative stress status in living brains, which have historically been considered to be involved mainly in neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease, and Parkinson's disease (PD). The development of efficient biosensors for the simultaneous measurement of their levels in living brains is vital to understand their roles played in the brain and their interactive relationship in the progress of these diseases. Herein, a robust ratiometric electrochemical microsensor was rationally designed to realize the determination of H2O2 and AA simultaneously. Therefore, a specific probe was designed and synthesized with both recognition units responsible for reacting with H2O2 to produce a detectable signal on the microsensor and linkage units helping the probe modify onto the carbon substrate. A topping ingredient, single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) was added on the surface of the electrode, with the purpose of not only facilitating the oxidation of AA but also absorbing methylene blue (MB), prompting to read out the inner reference signal. This proposed electrochemical microsensor exhibited a robust ability to real-time track H2O2 and AA in linear ranges of 0.5-900 and 10-1000 µM with high selectivity and accuracy, respectively. Eventually, the efficient electrochemical microsensor was successfully applied to the simultaneous measurement of H2O2 and AA in the rat brain, followed by microinjection, and in the PD mouse brain.

Discrimination and prediction of Qingzhuan tea storage year using quantitative chemical profile combined with multivariate analysis: Advantages of MRMHR based targeted quantification metabolomics.

The duration of storage significantly influences the quality and market value of Qingzhuan tea (QZT). Herein, a high-resolution multiple reaction monitoring (MRMHR) quantitative method for markers of QZT storage year was developed. Quantitative data alongside multivariate analysis were employed to discriminate and predict the storage year of QZT. Furthermore, the content of the main biochemical ingredients, catechins and alkaloids, and free amino acids (FAA) were assessed for this purpose. The results show that targeted marker-based models exhibited superior discrimination and prediction performance among four datasets. The R2Xcum, R2Ycum and Q2cum of orthogonal projection to latent structure-discriminant analysis discrimination model were close to 1. The correlation coefficient (R2) and the root mean square error of prediction of the QZT storage year prediction model were 0.9906 and 0.63, respectively. This study provides valuable insights into tea storage quality and highlights the potential application of targeted markers in food quality evaluation.

CTA-Based Radiomics and Area Change Rate Predict Infrarenal Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms Patients Events: A Multicenter Study.

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Clinical assessment of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) intervention and rupture risk relies primarily on maximum diameter, but studies have shown that sole dependence on diameter has limitations. CTA-based radiomics, aneurysm and lumen area change rates (AACR, LACR) are measured to predict potential AAA events. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Between January 2017 and November 2022, 260 AAA patients from four centers who underwent two preoperative CTA examinations were included in this retrospective study. The endpoint event is defined as AAA rupture or repair. Patients were categorized into event and no-event groups based on the occurrence of endpoint event during follow-up. AACR and LACR were assessed using baseline and follow-up CTA, with radiomics features extracted from the baseline images. C-statistics and the Kaplan-Meier analysis were used to evaluate the predictive performance. RESULTS: A total of 193 eligible infrarenal AAA patients were included, 176 (91.2%) were man and 17 (8.8%) were woman. The median follow-up was 33.4 (14.2, 57.4) months. Seven models were constructed, comprising the aneurysm-based Radscore model, lumen-based Radscore model, intraluminal thrombus (ILT)-based Radscore model, AACR model, LACR model, clinical model (including high-density lipoprotein, D-dimer, and baseline aneurysm diameter), and a merged model. On the external validation set, the C-index of seven models were 0.713 (0.574-0.853), 0.642 (0.499-0.786), 0.727 (0.600-0.854), 0.619 (0.484-0.753), 0.680 (0.530-0.830), 0.690 (0.557-0.824) and 0.760 (0.651-0.869), in that order. In the Kaplan-Meier analysis, the merged model was best-divided patients into high/low-risk groups with Log-rank p < 0.0001. The AARC and LARC between non-event and event groups have significant differences (AACR: 1.4 cm2/y vs. 2.3 cm2/y, p < 0.0001; LACR: 0.3 cm2/y vs. 1.1 cm2/y, p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION: CTA-based radiomics, AACR and LACR have good predictive value for outcome event in infrarenal AAA patients.
