    Abstract To explore the application effect of the big data medical imaging tertiary diagnostic system in improving the medical and health examination, cases in township health centers were collected by the medical imaging tertiary diagnosis system. Clinical cases examined by the tertiary diagnostic system of big data medical imaging will be set as the observation group. Clinical cases not involved in the tertiary diagnostic system of big data medical imaging were set as the control group. The qualified rate, film positive rate, and film diagnosis accuracy between the two groups are compared, and X-ray perspective, X-ray examination, and CT multiple medical imaging examinations are used in two groups. The experimental results showed that the pass rate was 86.57%, positive rate was 72.32%, and diagnosis rate was 80.17%. Pass rate, positive rate, and diagnostic accuracy were higher than the control group (

    Abstract Cytokines are among the most important effector and messenger molecules in the immune system. They profoundly participate in immune responses during infection and inflammation, protecting against or contributing to diseases such as allergy, autoimmunity, and cancer. Manipulating cytokine pathways, therefore, is one of the most effective strategies to treat various diseases. IL-10 family cytokines exert essential functions to maintain tissue homeostasis during infection and inflammation through restriction of excessive inflammatory responses, upregulation of innate immunity, and promotion of tissue repairing mechanisms. Their important functions in diseases are supported by data from many preclinical models, human genetic studies, and clinical interventions. Despite significant efforts, however, there is still no clinically approved therapy through manipulating IL-10 family cytokines. Here, we summarize the recent progress in understanding the biology of this family of cytokines, suggesting more specific strategies to maneuver these cytokines for the effective treatment of inflammatory diseases and cancers.

    Abstract Therapeutics that target the T cell inhibitory checkpoint proteins CTLA-4 and PD(L)1 are efficacious across a broad range of cancers, resulting in reductions in tumor burden and increased long-term survival in subsets of patients. The significant and wide-ranging effects of these immunotherapies have prompted the clinical investigation of additional therapies that modulate anti-tumor immunity through effects on T cells, myeloid cells, and other cell types within the tumor microenvironment. The clinical activity of these newer investigational therapies has been mixed, with some therapeutics showing promise but others not exhibiting appreciable efficacy. In this review, we summarize the results of select recent clinical studies of cancer immunotherapies beyond anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD(L)1 and discuss how these results are providing new insights into the regulation of human anti-tumor immunity.

    Abstract IL-22, an IL-10 family cytokine, is produced by different leukocyte subsets, including T cells, NK cells and lymphoid tissue inducer (LTi) cells. IL-22 mediates the crosstalk between leukocytes and tissue epithelia because its receptor is preferentially expressed on various tissue epithelial cells. IL-22 is essential for host defense against infections of extracellular pathogens, such as bacteria and yeasts, by eliciting various innate defensive mechanisms from tissue epithelial cells and promoting wound-healing responses. In autoimmune diseases, however, diverse tissue microenvironments and underlying pathogenic mechanisms may result in opposing contributions of IL-22 in disease progression. For example, in psoriasis, IL-22 can synergize with other proinflammatory cytokines to induce many of the pathogenic phenotypes from keratinocytes and exacerbate disease progression. In contrast, IL-22 plays a beneficial role in IBD by enhancing barrier integrity and epithelial innate immunity of intestinal tract.

    Abstract Th17 cells, which express the cytokine IL-17A, and master regulator RORγt, are important in the inflammatory response to fungal and bacterial pathogens, but also have a pathogenic role in many inflammatory disorders. In contrast, regulatory T cells (Treg), expressing the Foxp3 transcription factor, have a suppressive function and can dampen an immune response. The appropriate balance of these distinct effector functions is critical for an effective immune response and autoimmunity can arise if this process goes awry. In this issue, Wang et al. demonstrate a critical role for the transcription factor CREB (cyclic AMP-responsive element binding protein) in regulating the balance between inflammatory Th17 and suppressive Treg cells with implications for autoimmunity.

    Abstract Using the Anderson-Holstein model, we investigate charge transfer dynamics between a molecule and a metal surface for two extreme cases. (i) With a large barrier, we show that the dynamics follow a single exponential decay as expected; (ii) without any barrier, we show that the dynamics are more complicated. On the one hand, if the metal-molecule coupling is small, single exponential dynamics persist. On the other hand, when the coupling between the metal and the molecule is large, the dynamics follow a biexponential decay. We analyze the dynamics using the Smoluchowski equation, develop a simple model, and explore the consequences of biexponential dynamics for a hypothetical cyclic voltammetry experiment.

    Abstract Members of the interleukin (IL)-10 family of cytokines play important roles in regulating immune responses during host defense but also in autoimmune disorders, inflammatory diseases, and cancer. Although IL-10 itself primarily acts on leukocytes and has potent immunosuppressive functions, other family members preferentially target nonimmune compartments, such as tissue epithelial cells, where they elicit innate defense mechanisms to control viral, bacterial, and fungal infections, protect tissue integrity, and promote tissue repair and regeneration. As cytokines are prime drug targets, IL-10 family cytokines provide great opportunities for the treatment of autoimmune diseases, tissue damage, and cancer. Yet no therapy in this space has been approved to date. Here, we summarize the diverse biology of the IL-10 family as it relates to human disease and review past and current strategies and challenges to target IL-10 family cytokines for clinical use.

    Abstract Within a generalized Anderson-Holstein model, we investigate electron transfer rates using two different surface hopping algorithms: a broadened classical master equation (BCME) and independent electron surface hopping (IESH). We find that for large enough bandwidth and density of one electron states, and in the presence of external friction, the IESH results converge to the BCME results for impurity-bath model systems, recovering both relaxation rates and equilibrium populations. Without external friction, however, the BCME and IESH results can strongly disagree, and preliminary evidence suggests that IESH does not always recover the correct equilibrium state. Finally, we also demonstrate that adding an electronic thermostat to IESH does help drive the metallic substrate to the correct equilibrium state, but this improvement can sometimes come at the cost of worse short time dynamics. Overall, our results should be of use for all computational chemists looking to model either gas phase scattering or electrochemical dynamics at a metal interface.
