International football

Xinhua News Agency, Hong Kong, October 31 (Reporter Wei Hua) On the 31st Beijing time, Argentine star Messi won the Golden Globe Award for the eighth time without any dispute. When Messi turned and left the Chatelet Theatre, a new suspense surfaced: Who will be the next "Mr. Golden Globe"?

As the most prestigious individual award in international football, the Golden Globe Award has not been awarded to players born after 1990. It is not that this generation is not talented enough, but that the "post-80 s" are too dazzling. From becoming the first "80s" Ronaldinho to win the Golden Globe Award in 2005, to Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo who divided up 13 golden globes, and then to modric and Benzema who staged veteran legends, the 80s almost monopolized the Golden Globe Award selection in the past 20 years.

Nowadays, most of them are near the end of their careers or far away from the center stage of Europe. The story of Messi, Mero and this generation of famous players is coming to an end. Predictably, a "post-90 s" or even younger Golden Globe winner is ready to come.

Messi can win the Golden Globe again, and the 2022 FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 championship is his biggest weight. But if Muani can score a single-handed goal at the last minute of extra time in that World Cup final, thus helping the French team to defend its title successfully, will this year’s Golden Globe Award be awarded to Mbappé? This assumption is meaningless, but Mbappé, who was born in 1998, is also the closest to the Golden Globe Award among the new generation of stars.

Needless to say, Mbappé, a young and famous player, won the World Cup as the core when he was less than 20 years old. Real Madrid’s thirst for talents for many years also showed the value of the French top star. Although it was not pleasant with Paris Saint-Germain in the past summer, Mbappé, who returned to the court, still showed his ability to lead the team with one core. As far as the current strength of the French team is concerned, there is a high probability that the French team will not do badly in the European Championship next year, which is Mbappé’s greatest advantage.

As one of the most expensive players at present, Mbappé never lacks topics and exposure, but compared with his worth, Ligue 1 is still a "small temple". If you want to get your hands on the golden ball in the shortest time, Mbappé needs a bigger platform.

When it comes to Mbappé, Harland is indispensable. Since entering people’s field of vision, Harland has been labeled as a "goal machine": he scored 9 goals in a single game in the U20 World Youth Championship, scored a hat trick in Dortmund’s debut, and broke the Premier League scoring record in his debut season in Manchester City … In this Golden Globe Awards ceremony, the Norwegian was also named the best striker.

But Harland’s shortcomings are also obvious, the first is his ability to decide the game in key games. Harland’s goal-scoring efficiency is beyond doubt, but with Manchester City’s participation in several finals, including the Champions League finals, Harland failed to score. This season, in the Premier League battle between Manchester City and Arsenal, Harland didn’t even finish a shot, which is obviously not the standard that a "Mr. Golden Ball" should have. In addition, Harland’s biggest constraint comes from the national team. The overall strength of the Norwegian team is really limited, and whether it can participate in next year’s European Championship is unknown. Once it is absent from this most important competition next year, Harland will at least lose more than one position in the 2024 Golden Globe competition. If the national team can’t make a substantial breakthrough, then Harland, who won the second place in the Golden Globe Award this year, can only hope that in a non-competition year, she will once again hit a bright data and break the "enough".

Before this season, Mbappé and Harland were "fault leaders" among the younger generation, but now another player has appeared beside them, and that is Bellingham. After joining Real Madrid this summer, Bellingham’s talent was further released. Under the condition that Real Madrid’s center was weak, Bellingham shouldered the offensive beam of the team by himself, scored key goals in many games, scored two goals to help Real Madrid reverse Barcelona not long ago, and scored 13 goals in 13 games. Bellingham’s amazing performance had to be reminiscent of Zidane, who also wore the No.5 jersey. At the age of 20, the England youngster showed his age-incongruity.

In this award ceremony, Bellingham won the Copa Award representing the best young player, but some netizens joked that Bellingham’s competition for this award was simply a "dimensionality reduction blow". Even in the ranking of the Golden Globe Awards, Bellingham ranked 18th, which is not easy.

How long can Bellingham, who was born in midfield, keep scoring? This is very important in the Golden Globe Awards which value personal data. However, playing in Real Madrid, which is good at "creating momentum" for the Golden Globe Award, means that Bellingham has the best stage. Coupled with the emergence of talents in England in recent years, the vision of "letting football go home" is getting closer and closer to reality. As long as Bellingham does not ruin his future, he has the best hope to become another "Mr. Golden Globe" in England after michael owen.

How to treat the "usefulness" and "uselessness" of culture

Original title: How to treat the "usefulness" and "uselessness" of culture?

Zhongqingbao Zhongqingwang reporter Xia Wei

For drinking tea, it is obvious that ordinary white porcelain bowls can meet the demand, but why do we prefer porcelain tea set with fine workmanship? When writing, the arm rest is used to prevent the arm from being stained with ink. Obviously, as long as it has the function of putting the arm, why do we pay attention to its material and the carving on it? When we are moved by the beautiful artistic conception of an ancient poem, when we are fascinated by the exquisiteness and elegance of a handicraft, what do we get from it? What can those humanistic details and artistic values bring to our lives? Or, is culture "useful" or "useless" to our life?

The "uselessness" of culture is also "great use"

In the dialogue session hosted by Bai Yansong at the 15th Cultural China Forum, Pan Lusheng, chairman of China Folk Writers Association, pointed out that "useful" means "practical" and "useless" means aesthetic "useless". Material and spiritual use and life use are both useful and practical, while useless is also useful and even useful.

Pan Lusheng introduced that in Lin ‘an City in the Southern Song Dynasty, the palace culture, the literati culture and the street culture were integrated, which formed the idea of "craft for practical use", and also created a life style of unity of practicality and aesthetics in the Southern Song Dynasty. During this period, the weaving technology was superb, and the fabrics made were dense and light as cicada’s wings. Not only were there various types of yarn, Luo, Qi and Ling, but the silk reeling and embroidery techniques were also superb. The gardens in the Southern Song Dynasty are like three-dimensional landscape paintings with pavilions and winding paths, which contain the spiritual complex and aesthetic artistic conception of literati. From the clay figurines of children in the Song Dynasty in Zhenjiang Museum, to the Children’s Plays in the City in Taipei Palace Museum, from the white porcelain children’s pillows in Dingyao in the Palace Museum, to Song Jin’s Paintings of the Hundred Immortals in Cleveland Art Museum in the United States, all of them reflect the aesthetics and interest of life in which humanities and art are combined with street life.

In contrast, in today’s fast-paced diet and fragmented culture, modern people no longer seem to have an attitude of attaching importance to life aesthetics, and traditional crafts no longer pursue use value. In this context, should we learn from the ancients and return to the "elegant life" way of the Southern Song Dynasty?

"The handicraft tradition of the Southern Song Dynasty is historical and contemporary, which runs through the traditional Chinese aesthetic spirit, lifestyle and cultural taste." Pan Lusheng said. Therefore, he proposed to develop a new economy of Song rhyme culture, take people’s life needs as the guide, enhance cultural life experience, and study how elegant lifestyle can be integrated into today’s life, so that people can gain a sense of cultural identity.

Pan Lusheng believes that, on the one hand, by reviving traditional crafts, we can explore how to better inherit and utilize traditional craft and cultural resources at present, inject the culture of Xixiang into education and cultural communication, and serve people’s spiritual and cultural life. On the other hand, through the development of cultural industry with cross-industry barriers, traditional craft culture can be transformed into the resources of contemporary Song Yun cultural industry, creating higher economic value, thus better serving people’s material and cultural needs.

"Cultural pension" is worth looking forward to.

On the aesthetic level of life, the "usefulness" and "uselessness" of culture may be a philosophical proposition, but in the medical field, the "usefulness" of culture is indispensable. According to Zheng Xiaoying, academician of the Academy of Sciences of developing countries and director of the Peking University Population Research Institute, culture is even more "useful" than science and technology.

Zheng Xiaoying said, "Everyone’s ultimate wish is to grow old healthily and say goodbye to the world happily. This is by no means a problem that can be solved by relying solely on science and technology or medical means, but a realm that must be achieved through the combination of culture, art and technology. In this sense, the infiltration of culture is more important than the development of science and technology. "Zheng Xiaoying believes that" medical art education should be integrated into medical education so that every doctor can accumulate deeper artistic accomplishment and cultural heritage. "

Zheng Xiaoying pointed out that cultural blessing is also needed to deal with the problem of population aging. She introduced that with the intensification of the aging process, the life expectancy of China’s population is also increasing rapidly. However, most of the increased life expectancy is unhealthy, that is, life expectancy with disabilities. Among the disabled people in China, 53% are elderly people. To solve the problems of these elderly disabled people, we need the support of science and technology, but more importantly, we need the support of culture. "Let them be happy and enjoy the benefits brought about by the reform and opening up to the maximum. This is not a problem that can be solved by a simple assistive device."

At the same time, Zheng Xiaoying emphasized the concept of "cultural support for the aged", which is a way to support the aged on the premise that the material needs of the elderly are basically guaranteed, on the basis of meeting spiritual needs, on the basis of communicating emotions, exchanging ideas and having a healthy body and mind, and on the purpose of publicizing individuality, advocating independence and enjoying the spirit of happiness and pleasure. "Cultural pension meets the spiritual needs of the elderly. For the elderly without children, this pension model is particularly important." Zheng Xiaoying said.

How to realize the mutual integration of science and technology and humanities

Undoubtedly, the integration of culture, art and technology can make people’s lives better. So, as an individual, how should we start from ourselves and realize the integration of technology and humanities? This is also a question that Wang Yuming, an academician of China Academy of Engineering and an expert in fluid sealing engineering technology, is often asked.

Wang Yuming laughed and called himself a "science man". "However, although my main business is mechanical engineering, I am not" mechanical "culturally. He is a student of Mr. Ye Jiaying, a consultant of the Chinese Poetry Society, the director of the Poetry Working Committee of colleges and universities, and the president of the Tsinghua University Lotus Pond Poetry Society. It can be said that he is a person who perfectly balances "poetry and distance".

When answering the question "how to realize the mutual integration of science and technology and humanities", Wang Yuming believes that in terms of values, science and technology and humanities and arts are both pursuing truth, goodness and beauty, and they are essentially interlinked; In the mode of thinking, both of them need logical thinking and inspiration epiphany thinking, which can promote each other. The same is true of many masters of science and technology (such as Einstein, Yang Zhenning, Qiu Chengtong, Gu Yuxiu, Qian Xuesen, etc.). However, the most important thing is to have a "pure heart" in both scientific research and literary creation.

On the "Use" of China Culture from the Outside

The Chinese culture has a long history, and the "useful" culture not only created the fashion life of the ancients, but also injected spiritual strength into solving modern social problems, and also brought about an impact on the civilized development of neighboring countries.

In the dialogue session, Cheng Yonghua, former Japanese ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary to People’s Republic of China (PRC) and executive vice president of China-Japan Friendship Association, introduced the "use" of Japanese culture to neighboring countries. He said that China’s culture had a profound influence on the Korean Peninsula, Viet Nam and Japan. Take Japan as an example. The Sui, Tang and Song Dynasties were the historical peaks of Sino-Japanese cultural exchanges. During this period, ancient Japan sent 19 groups of envoys to China to study, with a maximum of 600 people at a time. In addition to sending envoys, a large number of international students also came to China from ancient Japan. Many of them stayed for many years, and some even stayed in China to work as officials in Chang ‘an until they died and were buried in Chang ‘an. In 645 AD, the ancient Japanese carried out the "Dahua Innovation" movement, abolished the monopoly regime system in big noble, and established an ancient centralized state with reference to the rules and regulations of the Tang Dynasty in China. During the Song Dynasty, more and more Japanese people came to China to study. Jian Zhen, a monk in the Tang Dynasty, traveled eastward to preach the precepts to Japan and was honored as the ancestor of Japanese Buddhist legalists. The Tang Zhaoti Temple complex built by him and his disciples in Nara, Japan, embodies the architectural characteristics of the Tang Dynasty and is the largest and most beautiful building in Japan’s existing Tianping era. Japanese characters are also born out of Chinese characters. At first, there were only languages but no characters in Japan. In asuka period, Buddhist classics introduced into Japan along with Buddhism made Chinese characters penetrate into Japanese life. The first Chinese characters were used by ancient Japanese as phonography, but they were troublesome in the process of use, so heian period invented katakana and hiragana with reference to the radicals and cursive scripts of Chinese characters. In addition, the present Japanese court music-gagaku,It is also music from the Tang Dynasty in China.

Cheng Yonghua said that Sino-Japanese exchanges have a history of 2,000 years. Today, Japanese young people are still attracted by China’s rapid economic development and technological innovation, and feel that "they should go to China to see more and communicate more".

Whether it is "practical" or "useless", the China culture of the same strain needs and deserves to be passed down and carried forward by contemporary people. As Pan Lusheng said, culture is a nation’s overall lifestyle and value system. If the ancients’ fashion is integrated into contemporary life, we may be able to create a pioneer culture with temperature, connotation and taste in the new era.

Trillion mass beauty market, the rise of domestic products, Korean makeup has quietly retreated.

Text | AI Finance and Economics Society Jiang Jiao

Editor | Guo Luqing

Korean makeup ebbed, as if overnight.

Entering B1 floor of Beijing Joy City, the first thing you see is the China Beauty Collection Store on the right side of the shopping mall, where customers are choosing eye shadow and trying on lipstick. On the other hand, there is only a shopping guide who keeps drinking in the Korean beauty Yueshi Fengyun store, which is in stark contrast.

Since when did Korean beauty, which once had a halo on its head, become unpopular?

Everything is traceable. On March 8, ETUDE HOUSE closed all offline stores in China; INNISFREE, owned by another Korean cosmetics giant, Amore Pacific Construction Group, plans to close at least 90 stores in the mainland in 2020 due to huge losses; Earlier, THE FACE SHOP, a brand owned by LG Life Health, also withdrew from China.

A few years ago, with the popularity of popular Korean dramas such as Missing You, Descendants of the Sun and You from the Stars, Korean beauty cosmetics once occupied the makeup table of domestic girls. Now, in the trillion-dollar beauty market in China, Korean makeup has quietly retreated.

Korean makeup "failed" China

As a Korean makeup brand that was once popular among girls, it is embarrassing for Yidi House to shut down mainland stores. At present, although Edie House official website still displays information of 35 stores, butAI finance and economics societyThe reporter was informed that it has completed the offline store withdrawal in China.

This Korean makeup brand, which entered the China market with a sweet and fashionable image, was originally called Aili Cabin. At its peak, it opened 85 brand direct stores in 25 cities in the mainland, such as Beijing, Shanghai and Chengdu. In 2020, affected by the epidemic, the operating income of Yiti House fell by 38% to 111.3 billion won (about 640 million yuan), and recorded a large loss, making it the most bleak brand of its group, Amore Pacific.

In fact, the Yiti House, which was withdrawn from the store, is just a microcosm of the ebb tide of Korean beauty. Another once popular Korean brand, Fei Shi Xiao Shop, withdrew from the China market as early as 2018. Yue Shi Feng Yin, who belongs to Amore Pacific Construction Group and belongs to Yidi House, is also closing loss-making stores.

According to relevant statistics, from 2019 to 2020, Yueshi Fengyun closed nearly 130 loss-making stores in mainland China. In addition, many Korean cosmetics stores such as NATURE REPUBLIC and Skin Food have been cutting offline stores in recent years.

Behind the frequent store closures, it reflects the decline of Korean cosmetics brands. According to the data of Korea Cosmetics Industry Research Institute, during the five years from 2013 to 2017, the growth rate of Korean cosmetics exports to China was 66%, which dropped to 20% in 2018 and only 14% remained in 2019. The arrival of the epidemic has accelerated the decline of Korean cosmetics in China.

According to CCTV’s financial report, due to the epidemic situation, Korean cosmetics are caught in the dilemma of export sales. Many small and medium-sized enterprises in Korea stopped working and suffered serious losses. In addition, the performance of Korean makeup giant Amore Pacific Construction Group has fallen sharply. The group’s revenue in fiscal year 2020 dropped by 21.5% and its profit by 69.8%.

Korean makeup has declined, and a person who has been engaged in Korean makeup purchasing business for 7 years is deeply touched. In the first two years, this person specializes in low-end Korean makeup brands such as Yue Shi Feng Yin and Si Qin Skin. These brands entered the China market with the Korean Wave, and were loved by many girls with their high cost performance, which also brought them a lot of income. Now, due to the sharp drop in orders, he has turned to purchasing high-end skin care products in Europe and America.

Why can’t Korean makeup, which supports China girls’ face value, work?

In today’s beauty market in China, apart from some steady European, American and Japanese brands and the booming domestic beauty products, Korean beauty products are becoming less and less. Why can’t Korean makeup, which once propped up the "face" of China girls, work?

For Korean makeup, 2016 is a turning point of fate. Prior to this, Korean beauty brands were all the rage because of the prevalence of Korean culture in China.

In 2013, a movie "You from the Stars" was all over China. Gianna Jun, the heroine, used two Korean lipstick brands in the play, which were sold out of stock nationwide immediately after the play was broadcast. Until now, some experienced beauty users can still clearly remember the hard-to-find situation of "Star Your Color" lipstick.

The prevalence of Korean Wave directly promotes the promotion of Korean makeup in China. In 2014, Korean cosmetics exports to China increased by 89% year-on-year, reaching US$ 600 million, accounting for 31% of its total exports, ranking first in the world. Since then, China has become the largest importer of Korean cosmetics. Then the share of Korean cosmetics in the domestic market gradually increased.

However, since then, with the cooling of the Korean Wave, Korean makeup has gradually declined in the China market. At the same time, China local beauty brands began to rise, Japanese beauty brands returned to consumers’ sight, and the market share of European and American brands in China also increased significantly. Strong competitors and the rise of the e-commerce industry have accelerated the decline of Korean makeup.

Korean makeup was originally known for its fast online speed, rich SKU and affordable price. It is reported that in 2016, the research and development cycle of affordable Korean cosmetics products can be shortened to 4-6 months, which is ahead of the industry level of the general one-year research and development cycle. However, this advantage was soon surpassed by domestic beauty products. For example, the perfect diary of domestic beauty brands can maintain the new frequency of 5-6 items per month in order to get more timely and direct market feedback.

With the rise of more and more domestic beauty cosmetics, the market competition is becoming more and more fierce, and the operating pressure of Korean beauty cosmetics is also increasing. In order to compete for market share, some Korean cosmetics distribute goods in a short and fast way, ignoring the sustainable development of the brand, and the product quality and cosmetic effect have been repeatedly criticized.

In 2017, official website, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine, announced 403 batches of food and cosmetics that were not allowed to enter. Among them, Lan Zhi, a beauty brand owned by Amore, was found to be susceptible to infection with Staphylococcus aureus. In 2018, the Korea Food and Drug Administration detected that there were 13 kinds of heavy metal antimony products in Amore’s 8 cosmetics brands.

In the little red book, many products of Yidi House were vomited by users. A girl who bought this brand of lipstick was even more bitter, complaining that the makeup was thick, difficult to apply evenly and smelled bad. Some insiders believe that the backwardness of Korean cosmetics lies not only in the product itself, but also in its failure to adapt to the changes in the China market.

It is difficult to form a trend again.

In fact, Korean beauty brands are not unaware of the crisis and have tried their best to save themselves.

However, the market structure of cosmetics in China has changed greatly, leaving few opportunities for Korean cosmetics.

Since 2019, Korean beauty giant LG Life Health has increased its digital marketing investment in China market. The group pays special attention to cultivating high-end brands such as post-Whoo, Sumi 37 and Ouhui, and cooperates with Viya, the head anchor, and invites Jiang Shuying, a popular actress, to be the image spokesperson of post-Whoo to boost the performance of mainland China.

Last year’s Double Eleven, after Whoo, the brand doubled its investment in live marketing. According to the data of ECdataway Dataway, during the pre-sale period of Double Eleven, after Whoo, the brand signed more than 130 anchors to bring goods, and the products appeared in more than 300 live broadcasts. During the pre-sale period, more than 80% of the pre-sale turnover after Whoo is guided by the live broadcast room.

In addition to high-end brands accelerating the layout of e-commerce channels, low-and medium-level brands have also begun to change their thinking and enter offline beauty collection stores. Previously, Yiti House once said that the closure of the store does not mean giving up the offline market. Later, in the China market, the colorist’s collection store will be the main offline position.

However, in contrast, domestic beauty products know the domestic market better, can grasp the changes in consumption trends more quickly, and occupy online channels earlier.

Domestic beauty cosmetics, represented by Perfect Diary, Flower Xizi and Orange Blossom, occupy consumers’ minds with faster new frequency and higher cost performance. Research data show that in 2020, the domestic cosmetic consumption market will account for 56%. 42% of consumers said that they would prefer to choose domestic cosmetics, and 90% of consumers said they would buy back domestic cosmetics in the future.

While Korean beauty products are still expanding their stores under the distress line, domestic beauty products have already used e-commerce platforms and social platforms to break the barriers of traditional marketing and achieve overtaking in corners. Now, whether you open Taobao, Little Red Book, Tik Tok E-commerce, bilibili and other platforms, you can see the domestic beauty products. In the first half of 2020, the content consumption of domestic brands on Xiaohongshu platform increased by 65.9% year-on-year, far exceeding European and American brands and Japanese, Korean and Thai brands.

"With the rise of national cultural self-confidence, a new generation of young consumers are more inclined to express their feelings and cultural attitudes through the’ national tide’, and are more willing to accept domestic beauty cosmetics planted on platforms such as Taobao Live, Tik Tok and Xiaohongshu, and are not easily influenced by Korean culture. Even if Korean high-end cosmetics still have some room for development in China, it is difficult to form a trend as before. " An industry veteran said.

Medical anti-corruption: the mission of the new era in the sun

In the historical process of the new era, China’s socialist cause has flourished and people’s living standards have been continuously improved. However, in this process, corruption still exists, especially in the medical field, which not only damages the vital interests of the masses, but also seriously infringes on social fairness and justice. Therefore, it is particularly important to strengthen medical anti-corruption.

Medical anti-corruption must first strengthen the supervision of medical institutions. Medical institutions are holy places to heal the wounded and rescue the dying, which should be the place full of positive energy. However, in recent years, some medical institutions and their staff have deviated from medical ethics and pursued the maximization of interests, which has led to the tension between doctors and patients. In this regard, we should strengthen the internal and external supervision of medical institutions, improve the system construction, and ensure the normal operation of medical institutions.

Secondly, medical anti-corruption should severely punish corruption. In view of the problem of corruption in the medical field, we must resolutely punish according to law, and all medical institutions and individuals involved in corruption, bribery, power rent-seeking, false reimbursement and other acts must be dealt with seriously and will never be tolerated. At the same time, it is necessary to strengthen the case review, dig out the deep-seated reasons behind corruption, and provide useful reference for the reform in the medical field.

In addition, medical anti-corruption needs to strengthen publicity and education. We should carry out in-depth medical ethics education, so that the majority of medical staff can establish a correct world outlook, outlook on life and values, bearing in mind the purpose of serving the people. At the same time, it is necessary to strengthen the building of a clean and honest party style, raise the awareness of honesty and self-discipline of cadres in party member, and create a clean and healthy medical environment.

Finally, medical anti-corruption should give full play to the role of social supervision. We encourage the public to actively participate in medical anti-corruption and expose corrupt behaviors in the medical field through public opinion supervision and reporting. In addition, it is necessary to establish a medical anti-corruption information sharing platform, strengthen cooperation and communication between departments, and form an anti-corruption pattern in which the whole society participates.

In short, medical anti-corruption is an important task in the new era, which is related to the vital interests of the people and social fairness and justice. Under the new situation, we should take the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China as the guide, carry out in-depth medical anti-corruption struggle, and strive to create a good medical environment for realizing the goal of common prosperity for all people.

Marco Conidi, an Italian singer who wrote the famous song "Mai sola mai" for Rome in 2006, also participated in the protest. He wrote on Instagram: "The most important thing tomorrow is that everyone brings a white handkerchief. Let’s wave it before the game to protest that our respected coach has been absurdly disqualified from conducting. Everyone supports Mourinho!"

Musk: I was interested in cryptocurrency, but now I love AI.

On March 6th, Tesla CEO Elon Musk said on social media: I used to be interested in encrypting digital currency, but now I love artificial intelligence. "

According to media reports, Musk recently contacted artificial intelligence researchers and planned to set up a new research laboratory to develop a substitute for ChatGPT.

In addition, Musk’s remarks also suggest that compared with ChatGPT and Microsoft’s new chat bots, the chat bots he developed may have fewer restrictions on controversial topics.

Introduction to research

TARGET study is the first multi-center, randomized and controlled clinical study in the world to evaluate the treatment and management of new stable chest pain patients using the field deployment strategy based on machine learning CT-FFR calculation. The research uses the artificial intelligence CT-FFR computing technology independently developed by China (Keya Medical Technology Co., Ltd.), and a total of 1216 patients from six medical centers in China were selected. The pretest probability of obstructive coronary heart disease in the enrolled patients was medium to high, and coronary CT angiography suggested that there was a critical stenosis of 30%-90%. The researchers randomly divided patients into CT-FFR diagnosis and treatment group (experimental group) or standard diagnosis and treatment group (control group). The main end point of the study was the proportion of patients with non-obstructive coronary artery disease or with obstructive coronary artery disease who did not receive revascularization during the follow-up coronary angiography within 90 days. Secondary end points included major adverse cardiovascular events, quality of life outcomes, improvement of angina symptoms and medical costs.

The results showed that compared with the control group, the proportion of patients with non-obstructive coronary disease or obstructive coronary disease who did not receive revascularization in CT-FFR diagnosis and treatment group decreased significantly (28.3% vs. 46.2%, P<0.001). On the whole, there were more patients receiving revascularization in CT-FFR group than in the control group (49.7% vs. 42.8%, P=0.02), but there was no significant difference in the proportion of MACE during the one-year follow-up (hazard ratio, 0.88; 95%CI, 0.59 to 1.30)。 During the follow-up period, the quality of life and symptoms of the two groups were similar, while the medical cost of CT-FFR treatment group tended to decrease. It is concluded that, compared with the standard diagnosis and treatment strategy represented by cardiac stress examination, the on-site deployment of CT-FFR calculation diagnosis and treatment strategy based on machine learning will significantly reduce the proportion of patients who have found non-obstructive coronary artery disease or do not need intervention within 90 days after coronary angiography. In addition, CT-FFR diagnosis and treatment strategy tends to save medical costs and increase the proportion of revascularization in the selected population. At the same time, CT-FFR strategy is consistent with the traditional path in improving patients’ symptoms or quality of life and the incidence of major clinical adverse vascular events.

Research enlightenment

TARGET research results show that "CT-FFR strategy based on machine learning in the field is feasible, safe and effective".

In the past 10 years, the extensive use of coronary CTA has promoted the diagnosis and treatment process of coronary heart disease in China. According to statistics, in 2017, the total number of coronary CTA angiography examinations in China reached 4.6 million. Therefore, the simple diagnostic function of coronary angiography is weakening, but among the patients who have received coronary angiography in China, most cases have not found obstructive coronary stenosis in the catheter room. Part of the reason for this phenomenon is that functional examination is not widely used or advanced cardiac imaging technology is not available enough. TARGET study further emphasizes that coronary angiography should only be applied to those patients who are most likely to have obstructive coronary stenosis or benefit from revascularization, and CT-FFR strategy will significantly optimize the management of stable coronary heart disease population.

This study adopts the CT-FFR simulation calculation technology-deep pulse fraction independently developed by Keya Medical Technology Co., Ltd., uses deep learning technology to evaluate the physiological function of coronary artery, and uses artificial intelligence technology to evaluate the FFR of coronary angiography image, which is a deep learning technology independently developed and optimized based on the latest development in the field of computer vision. It can quickly and accurately analyze the non-invasive blood flow reserve fraction. In January 2020, this technology was approved as the first NMPA artificial intelligence medical device class III certificate in China, and now it has become the only CT-FFR product in the world that has been triple-certified by NMPA in China, CE in the European Union and FDA in the United States.

Pamela Douglas, MD (Duke Clinical Research Institute, Durham, North Carolina), former president of ACC, led the experiment funded by HeartFlow (PLATFORM and PRECISE research). She pointed out that the most outstanding thing about the TARGET experiment is the novelty of its on-site CT-FFR analysis.

Douglas said:

It is indeed possible that the field deployment method is cheaper and can return the results faster. In clinical practice, if CCTA is used as a first-line test, Douglas said, then the question becomes: "If you have borderline lesions, what should you do next?" For her, "this is a little obvious, because CT-FFR is only a software analysis. Although the previous products are very complicated, it is not without risk to make an appointment for a load test and ask the patient to come back later."

The researchers pointed out:

It is very important to deploy artificial intelligence computing in the field of TARGET research. "The advantage of using artificial intelligence algorithm is that it provides the possibility of field deployment, avoids the need to transfer sensitive medical data, shortens the calculation time and increases the participation of clinicians." They explained that although FFR can also be calculated by field computational fluid dynamics, this strategy is complex and requires a lot of resources. The convenience of machine learning will contribute to the application of CT-FFR in a wider range of scenarios, adding that "on-site CT-FFR strategy is practical and may be more suitable to meet the clinical practice needs in various clinical environments."

Galtier is temporarily safe, not necessarily in summer.

The exit from the Champions League doomed the direction and outcome of Paris Saint-Germain’s surrender in the 2022-23 season, and also sealed the double failure of strategy and management. Even so, Paris Saint-Germain plans to let him continue to lead the team, at least until the end of this season. French media claimed that the report on the crisis meeting between him and President Hellfi was exaggerated, and the club insisted that Galtier would not be fired before the end of the season, but he might not get the support from the top. It remains to be seen whether he can continue to lead Paris next season, but before that, he still has hope of winning Ligue 1.
