Ovarian cancer is one of the common malignant tumors of female genital organs. In gynecological tumors, the incidence rate of ovarian cancer ranks the third after cervical cancer and uterine body cancer, but the death rate of ovarian cancer ranks the first, posing a serious threat to women’s life and health. In recent years, the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) clinical practice guidelines for ovarian cancer has become an important basis for diagnosis and treatment of ovarian cancer. In this paper, we interpret the latest version (version 4. 2017) of NCCN clinical practice guidelines for ovarian cancer for its better clinical application.
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a gastroenterological emergency with an acute onset and a high mortality rate. The main pathogenesis of AP is pancreatic damage and excessive activation of inflammatory cells induced by multiple factors. Due to anatomical features, the liver is the first extrapancreatic organ to be attacked by high concentrations of trypsin and inflammatory mediators during AP. Hepatic macrophages have been shown to be a major source of AP-related inflammatory factors. Interventions targeting hepatic macrophages may be critical to block liver injury/failure during AP, promote tissue repair, and reduce systemic symptoms. This review summarizes the pathological role of hepatic macrophages in AP and targeted interventions to provide new ideas and approaches to resolve the pathogenesis of AP and alleviate concurrent liver injury.
During the automatic reconstruction of panoramic images, the effect of dental arch curve fitting will affect the integrity of the content of the panoramic image. Metal implants in the patient’s mouth usually lead to a decrease in the contrast of the panoramic image, which affects the doctor’s diagnosis. In this paper, an automatic oral panoramic image reconstruction method was proposed. By calculating key image areas and image extraction fusion algorithms, the dental arch curve could be automatically detected and adjusted on a small number of images, and the intensity distribution of teeth, bone tissue and metal implants on the image could be adjusted to reduce the impact of metal on other tissues, to generate high-quality panoramic images. The method was tested on 50 cases of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) data with good results, which can effectively improve the quality of panoramic images.
