Surgical treatment is one of the key approaches for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Regular postoperative follow-up is crucial for early detection and timely management of tumor recurrence, metastasis, or second primary tumors. A scientifically sound and reasonable follow-up strategy not only extends patient survival but also significantly improves quality of life, thereby enhancing overall prognosis. This consensus aims to build upon the previous version by incorporating the latest clinical research advancements and refining postoperative follow-up protocols for early-stage NSCLC patients based on different treatment modalities. It provides a scientific and practical reference for clinicians involved in the postoperative follow-up management of NSCLC. By optimizing follow-up strategies, this consensus seeks to promote the standardization and normalization of lung cancer diagnosis and treatment in China, helping more patients receive high-quality care and long-term management. Additionally, the release of this consensus is expected to provide insights for related research and clinical practice both domestically and internationally, driving continuous development and innovation in the field of postoperative management for NSCLC.

AIM: To explore the factors influencing heart rate(HR)changes during small incision lenticule extraction(SMILE)surgery by monitoring HR trends at different time points of the procedure.METHODS: Prospective cohort study. A total of 69 patients who underwent SMILE surgery at the Laser Vision Correction Center of Xi'an No.1 Hospital from April to May 2024 were enrolled. Before the surgery, patients completed the State Anxiety Inventory(S-AI, questions 1-20)to assess their preoperative anxiety scores related to the next day's surgery. Baseline HR was recorded using medical pulse oximeter, and real-time HR was recorded during patient positioning, lenticule scanning, lenticule separation and extraction, and the application of postoperative eye drops.RESULTS: The HR during patient positioning was 83.61±13.87 bpm, which was significantly different from the baseline HR(77.52±10.88 bpm), HR during lenticule separation and extraction(75.54±12.52 bpm), and HR during postoperative eye drop application(76.65±10.54 bpm; all P<0.001). When stratified by median age, older patients(>26 years)had the HR during lenticule separation and extraction 76.27±9.93 bpm, which differed from the HR at positioning(84.82±14.10 bpm)and at lens scanning(82.76±13.72 bpm; all P<0.005). Stratified by gender, the HR of male patients at positioning was the highest(85.31±16.61 bpm), which differed significantly from the baseline HR(78.26±12.63 bpm), HR during lenticule separation and extraction(77.14±14.59 bpm), and HR during postoperative eye drop application(77.11±12.49 bpm; all P<0.005). There was no correlation between HR during positioning and preoperative anxiety scores(r=0.124, P=0.418).CONCLUSION: HR changes during SMILE surgery vary with different procedural stages, peaking during patient positioning and reaching the lowest point during lenticule separation and extraction. Older patients showed higher HR during positioning, and male patients exhibited higher HR during positioning.

19 cinnamamide/ester-triazole compounds were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their anti-Alzheimer's disease (AD) activity. Among them, compound 4f displayed excellent anti-β-amyloid protein (Aβ)-mediated cytotoxicity (EC₅₀ = 2.03 ± 2.45 μmol·L^-1) in APPswe cells and acetylcholinesterase inhibiton (IC₅₀ = 4.88 ± 4.70 μmol·L^-1). Further study indicated that, at dosages of (1, 5 and 25 mg·kg^-1), compound 4f was effective in improving spatial learning and memory deficits in Aβ_1-42-impaired mice, which was achieved by promoting the nonamyloidogenic signaling and inhibiting the amyloidogenic pathway, along with the suppression of Aβ-induced Tau phosphorylation. All animal experiments in this study were approved by the Experimental Animal Care and Use Committee of the Institute of Medicinal Biotechnology (IMB-20220908D701). In conclusion, compound 4f holds promise as a lead candidate for AD treatment, and the present study lays the foundation for its subsequent development.

Objective To explore the value of combined ultrasound parameters, including the hepatorenal index (HRI) and renal resistance index (RRI), with cystatin C (CysC) in monitoring early acute kidney injury (AKI) after liver transplantation. Methods Perioperative data from 121 liver transplant recipients who received organs from donation after brain death were collected. The HRI and RRI of the recipients were measured on postoperative days 1-7 and at 1 month, and the CysC levels were measured on postoperative day 1. The recipients were divided into the AKI group (n=53) and the non-AKI group (n=68) based on whether AKI occurred within 7 days after operation. The data of the two groups were compared, and the ultrasound parameters before and after recovery in the AKI group were analyzed. The value of combined HRI, RRI and CysC in monitoring AKI was also analyzed. Results AKI occurred in 53 recipients, with an incidence rate of 43.8%, including 30 cases of stage 1, 18 cases of stage 2, and 5 cases of stage 3. Among them, 49 cases occurred on postoperative day 1, and 4 cases occurred on postoperative day 2. Of these, 43 cases recovered within 7 days after surgery, 8 cases recovered within 2 months after surgery, 1 case was lost to follow-up, and 1 case received renal replacement therapy. The body mass index and preoperative CysC levels were higher in the AKI group than in the non-AKI group, and the operative time was longer in the AKI group than in the non-AKI group (all P < 0.05). The HRI on postoperative day 1 was lower in the AKI group than in the non-AKI group, while the RRI and CysC levels were higher (all P < 0.05). When AKI occurred, the HRI was lower than the baseline level, and the RRI was higher than the baseline level. As AKI recovered, the HRI gradually increased, and the RRI gradually decreased. The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that the sensitivity and specificity of HRI ≤ 1.12 for predicting AKI were 0.623 and 0.878, respectively, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.801. The sensitivity and specificity of RRI ≥ 0.65 for predicting AKI were 0.878 and 0.676, respectively, with an AUC of 0.825. The sensitivity and specificity of CysC ≥ 1.38 mg/L for predicting AKI were 0.736 and 0.882, respectively, with an AUC of 0.851 (all P<0.01). The combination of HRI and CysC (AUC=0.897, P<0.01), RRI and CysC (AUC=0.910, P<0.01), and all three parameters combined (AUC=0.934, P<0.01) were more effective than using each parameter alone. Conclusions HRI and RRI may be used to monitor the occurrence and recovery of early AKI after liver transplantation. The combination of these two parameters with CysC has a high application value in monitoring early AKI after liver transplantation.

AIM: To investigate the decentration of the treatment zone(TZ)and the early impact on corneal higher-order aberrations(HOAs)induced by orthokeratology(OK)lenses fitted with digital corneal topography.METHODS: A retrospective longitudinal clinical study was conducted on 28 patients(28 right eyes)who were digitally fitted with OK lenses at the Laser Vision Center of Xi'an No.1 Hospital since 2023. Longitudinal measurements were taken at baseline, 1 wk, 1 and 3 mo post-treatment to assess changes in TZ diameter, decentration magnitude and direction. Furthermore, changes in corneal HOAs were observed, and correlations of decentration with each HOAs were also analyzed.RESULTS: The mean age of patients was 10.29±2.00 years, with 15 males and 13 females, and the average baseline spherical equivalent was -2.92±0.94 D. The average TZ diameters at 1 wk, 1, and 3 mo were 3.64±0.58, 3.83±0.57, and 3.69±0.55 mm, respectively, with no statistically significant differences between 1 wk and 3 mo. Horizontal decentration values were -0.43±0.28, -0.38±0.33, and -0.31±0.37 mm after wearing lenses for 1 wk, 1 and 3 mo, respectively, while vertical decentration values were -0.33±0.20, -0.33±0.23, and -0.36±0.23 mm across the same time points. The TZ consistently decentered inferotemporally, and changes in both horizontal and vertical decentration over time were not statistically significant(Fhorizontal=1.416, Phorizontal=0.252; Fvertical=0.126, Pvertical=0.882). Significant increases in total corneal HOAs, coma, and spherical aberration were observed at 5 mm optical zone post-wear(F=45.695, 33.401, and 45.091, all P<0.001). Vertical decentration at 1 wk and 1 mo was negatively correlated with total HOAs and coma(all P<0.05), while horizontal decentration at 3 mo showed a weak negative correlation with spherical aberration(P=0.037).CONCLUSION: Digitally-fitted OK lenses achieved stable TZ diameter by 1 wk post-wear, with minor inferotemporal decentration. Early post-wear corneal total HOAs, coma and sphercal aberration increased significantly, and vertical downward decentration was associated with elevated total HOAs and coma. However, correlations between decentration and HOAs weakened by 3 mo.

Objective To investigate the effect of dexmedetomidine(Dex)on inflammatory injury in rats with lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced myocarditis(Myo)by regulating AMP-activated protein kinase(AMPK)/silent information regulator 1(SIRT1)/nuclear factor κB(NF-κB)signaling pathway.Methods Rats were randomly divide into the NC group,the Myo group,and the L-Dex group(10 μg/kg Dex),the M-Dex group(30 μg/kg Dex),the H-Dex group(50 μg/kg Dex),the AICAR group(100 mg/kg AMPK/SIRT1/NF-κB signal pathway activator),the H-Dex+GSK690693 group(50 μg/kg Dex+0.2 μmol/kg AMPK/SIRT1/NF-κB signal pathway inhibitor GSK690693),with 10 rats in each group.M-mode echocardiography system was used to evaluate the cardiac function of rats;ELISA kit was used to detect the levels of serum interleukin-1β(IL-1β),interleukin-6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),superoxide dismutase(SOD),and malondialdehyde(MDA)in rats;TUNEL staining was used to observe cell apoptosis;HE staining was used to observe the pathological changes of myocardial tissue;RT-qPCR was used to detect the mRNA expression of C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 1(CXCL1),C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 2(CXCL2),and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1(VCAM-1)in rat myocardial tissue;Western blot was used to detect the expression of AMPK/SIRT1/NF-κB pathway-related proteins in rat myocardial tissue.Results There was no abnormal change in cardiomyocytes in the NC group,and cardiomyocytes in the Myo group showed deformation,necrosis,inflammatory cell infiltra-tion,and mesenchymal congestion;necrosis,inflammatory cell infiltration,and mesenchymal congestion in the L-Dex group,the M-Dex group,the H-Dex group,and the AICAR group were improved compared with that in the Myo group;changes in cardiomyocytes in the H-Dex group and the AICAR group were similar to those in the NC group,and changes in cardiomyocytes in the H-Dex+GSK690693 group were similar to those in the Myo group.Compared with the NC group,the left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),left ventricular fractional shortening(LVFS),expression levels of SOD,p-AMPK/AMPK,p-SIRT1/SIRT1 in the Myo group were obviously decreased(P<0.05),left ventricular end-systolic volume(LVESV),left ventricular end-diastolic volume(LVEDV),left ventricular end-systolic diameter(LVESD),left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVEDD),expression levels of IL-1β,IL-6,TNF-α,MDA,CXCL1,CXCL2,VCAM-1,p-NF-κB/NF-κB,NF-κB p65 and cardiomyocyte apoptosis rate were obviously increased(P<0.05).Compared with the Myo group,the LVEF,LVFS,expression levels of SOD,p-AMPK/AMPK,p-SIRT1/SIRT1 in the L-Dex group,the M-Dex group,the H-Dex group and the AICAR group were obviously increased(P<0.05),LVESV,LVEDV,LVESD,LVEDD,expression levels of IL-1β,IL-6,TNF-α,MDA,CXCL1,CXCL2,VCAM-1,p-NF-κB/NF-κB,NF-κB p65 and cardiomyocyte apoptosis rate were obviously decreased(P<0.05),and the effects were more obvious with the increase of the dosage of Dex.There was no significant difference in the above results between the AICAR group and the H-Dex group(P>0.05).Compared with the H-Dex group,the LVEF,LVFS,expression levels of SOD,p-AMPK/AMPK,p-SIRT1/SIRT1 in the H-Dex+GSK690693 group were obviously decreased(P<0.05),LVESV,LVEDV,LVESD,LVEDD,levels of IL-1β,IL-6,TNF-α,MDA,cardiomyocyte apoptosis rate,the expression of CXCL1,CXCL2,VCAM-1,p-NF-κB/NF-κB and NF-κB p65 protein were obviously increased(P<0.05).Conclusion Dex may alleviate LPS-induced inflammatory injury in Myo rats by up-regulating AMPK/SIRT1/NF-κB signaling pathway.

In recent years,the growing public awareness of personal health has sparked a surge in inter-est in the beneficial effects of polyphenols on the human organism.Extensive research by domestic and international scholars has established that polyphenols,due to their unique chemical properties,exhibit remarkable anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties,leading to improvements in various diseases,in-cluding cancer,diabetes,and colitis.Notably,China stands as one of the world's largest producers and consumers of flax,a crop rich in lignans,a subclass of polyphenols.These flax lignans possess significant effects on the body,demonstrating immense potential for therapeutic applications.This paper delves into the origins,metabolic processes,and health benefits of flax lignans in China.It offers a comprehensive review of the mechanisms underlying flax lignans role in disease intervention,focusing on their interac-tions with relevant signalling pathways.Our findings suggest that flaxseed lignans can promote organismic health by either directly modulating gene expression or indirectly regulating signalling pathways.Further-more,flaxseed lignans can exhibit diverse effects depending on specific physiological conditions.

Extracellular vesicles (EV) are highly heterogeneous nanoscale vesicles secreted by cells. They carry various bioactive molecules derived from the parent cells. EV are widely distributed in various body fluids, showing enormous potential in liquid biopsy and disease treatment. However, conventional flow cytometers face challenges in detecting single EV with a diameter smaller than 300 nm. The nano-flow cytometry (nFCM) developed based on Raleigh scattering and sheath-flow single-molecule fluorescence detection has successfully pushed the detection limit of EV to 40 nm. Through multi-parameter detection at the single-particle level, nFCM enables simultaneous analysis of particle size, particle concentration, and multiple biochemical properties of individual EV. nFCM can be applied to clinical diagnosis and therapeutics based on EV.

AIM: To evaluate the clinical outcomes of using the cross-positioning method for correcting low and moderate astigmatism during small incision lenticule extraction(SMILE)surgery with Alpins vector analysis.METHODS: A total of 50 patients(81 eyes)with low and moderate astigmatism with the rule ≤1.50 D who underwent SMILE surgery at the laser myopia treatment center of Xi'an No.1 Hospital from May 2022 to November 2022 were included in the prospective randomized controlled study, and they were divided into two groups according to the random table, with 25 case(41 eyes)in cross-positioning group and 25 cases(40 eyes)in control group. In the cross-positioning group, the patients' head position was adjusted based on the cross intersection lines before the standard SMILE procedure, aligning the lateral canthi with the horizontal line and the midpoint of the eyebrows and the nose bridge with the vertical line. Postoperative visual acuity and refractive results at 3 mo were observed in both groups, and astigmatic changes were analyzed and evaluated using the Alpins vector analysis method.RESULTS: During the follow-up period, 6 cases(11 eyes)in the cross-positioning group were lost to follow-up, while in the control group, 8 cases(14 eyes)were lost to follow-up, with 19 cases(30 eyes)and 17 cases(26 eyes)finally included in the cross-positioning group and the control group, respectively. At 3 mo postoperatively, the uncorrected visual acuity(UCVA)of both groups' operated eyes was ≥1.0, and no serious complications occurred, with no significant differences in UCVA, best corrected visual acuity(BCVA), spherical power, and spherical equivalent between the cross-positioning group and the control group(all P>0.05). The cylindrical power in the cross-positioning group was 0.00(0.00, 0.00)D, which was lower than -0.13(-0.50, 0.00)D in the control group(P=0.01). The vector analysis results showed that the difference vector(DV)in the cross-positioning group was lower than that in the control group [0.00(0.00, 0.00)vs 0.13(0.00, 0.50), P=0.01], and the index of success(IOS)was better than that of the control group [0.00(0.00, 0.00)vs 0.18(0.00, 0.77), P<0.01]. At 3 mo postoperatively, 26(87%)and 15(58%)eyes in the cross-positioning group and control groups achieved an angle of error(AE)within ±5°, respectively.CONCLUSION: The cross positioning method was used to calibrate the patients' head position during SMILE surgery, which reduced the axial position error and improved the accuracy of SMILE in correcting low and moderate astigmatism.
