With the continuous deepening of the concept of precision diagnosis and treatment for lung cancer, how to achieve higher efficiency and accuracy in the screening, diagnosis, and treatment pathways in clinical practice has become an important issue that urgently needs to be overcome. The current clinical difficulty lies in the fact that despite continuous advancements in imaging and molecular diagnostic technologies, there are still limitations in manual efficiency and subjective experience when it comes to massive data analysis and multi-scale feature extraction. Artificial intelligence (AI), especially algorithm systems based on deep learning, is an innovative technology capable of deeply empowering medical big data. This method utilizes algorithms such as convolutional neural networks, combined with radiomics, pathomics, and multi-modal data fusion analysis, demonstrating immense potential in early precise detection and benign-malignant differentiation of pulmonary nodules, digital pathological subtype recognition and non-invasive prediction of driver genes, precise 3D surgical planning and automatic delineation of radiotherapy target volumes, as well as dynamic risk warning during follow-up. This innovative technology provides a brand-new solution for realizing intelligent and individualized lung cancer diagnosis and treatment models. This consensus, based on the latest evidence from evidence-based medicine and combined with the development trends in the AI field and real-world clinical needs, was ultimately formed by gathering the consensus opinions of multidisciplinary experts in radiology, pathology, thoracic surgery, and other fields. The main content covers the application specifications of AI in the three core scenarios of lung cancer screening, diagnosis, and treatment, the technical standards for data collection and algorithm validation, as well as the ethical and regulatory challenges faced at the current stage. It aims to clarify the applicable boundaries of AI as a clinical auxiliary decision support tool, providing scientific guidance and standardized exploration directions for peers currently engaged in or planning to carry out AI-assisted clinical diagnosis, treatment, and translation of lung cancer.

Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods The clinical data of patients with stage ⅡA-ⅢB NSCLC who underwent surgical treatment after receiving neoadjuvant immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy or chemotherapy alone at the First People’s Hospital of Jining between April 2021 and January 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the preoperative neoadjuvant regimens, the patients were divided into a combined group and a chemotherapy group, and the clinical data of the two groups were compared. Results A total of 66 patients were included, including 61 males and 5 females. There were 53 patients in the combined group with a mean age of (63.40±6.80) years, and 13 patients in the chemotherapy group with a mean age of (58.62±8.30) years. There was a statistical difference in age between the two groups (P<0.001), while no statistical difference was observed in other baseline data (P>0.05). The major pathological response rates in the combined group and the chemotherapy group were 54.7% and 23.1%, respectively (P=0.041), and the pathological complete response rates were 39.6% and 0.0%, respectively (P=0.006). The operative time in the combined group was shorter (P=0.039). There were no statistical differences between the two groups in intraoperative blood loss, duration of postoperative tube carrying, incidence of postoperative complications, overall survival, or event-free survival (P>0.05). Conclusion Surgical treatment following neoadjuvant immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy is safe and feasible, and its long-term efficacy requires further follow-up for confirmation.

Objective:To explore the construction of an evaluation model for aortic root anatomy and calcium burden in patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) stenosis before transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) based on deep learning (DL) algorithms.Methods:A retrospective collection of 362 BAV stenosis patients who underwent TAVR from September 2023 to May 2024 was performed. All patients underwent cardiac CT angiography. The patients were divided into training group ( n=104), internal validation group ( n=206), and external validation group ( n=52). A DL model was trained on the training dataset to assess aortic root anatomy and calcification burden. The evaluation included the segmentation accuracy of the algorithm, the measurement performance of key anatomical structures (i.e., valve leaflets and type-1 and type-2 fusion raphe), and calcification burden, as well as the measurement efficiency. Overall segmentation performance was assessed using the average Dice coefficient (ADC). The fine-scale segmentation quality was validated by the 95th-percentile Hausdorff distance (HD-95) and the average symmetric surface distance (ASSD). The consistency of the measurement results was assessed using the Pearson correlation coefficient and the intraclass correlation coefficient ( ICC) with a two-way mixed model for absolute agreement. In addition, the total time and total mouse movement distance required for manual assessment versus the DL model on the validation datasets were recorded and compared. Results:The algorithm demonstrated excellent segmentation performance on aortic root anatomical targets, achieving outstanding consistency within both internal and external validation datasets (0.955

Objective To explore the injury process of retinal ganglion cells(RGCs)after glucocorticoid(GC)-in-duced ocular hypertension(OHT),as well as the protective effect and mechanism of estradiol(E2)in RGC injury in rats with OHT.Methods Atotalof36(36 eyes)12-week-old male Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were randomly divided into the blank control group,the GC-OHT group,and the OHT-E2 group,with 12 rats in each group.Rats in the GC-OHT group and the OHT-E2 group were subconjunctivally injected with GC,while those in the blank control group were subconjuncti-vally injected with an equal volume of normal saline.Two weeks after modeling,in addition to being injected with GC,rats in the OHT-E2 group were also provided with E2 eye drops.Before modeling and 1,2,3,and 4 weeks after modeling,the intraocular pressure of rats in each group was measured.The visual acuity changes of rats in each group were detected by pattern electroretinogram(P-ERG)and flash visual evoked potential(F-VEP)4 weeks after modeling.After the eyeballs were removed,the distribution and number of RGCs in rats of each group were observed by immunofluorescence staining.Immunohistochemistry,Western blot,and real-time fluorescence-based quantitative polymerase chain reaction were used to detect the relative protein and mRNA expression levels of NOD-like receptor protein 3(NLRP3),cysteine aspartate prote-ase-1(Caspase-1),and gasdermin-D(GSDMD)in rats in each group.Results There was no statistically significant difference in the intraocular pressure of rats in each group before modeling(P>0.05).Compared with the blank control group,the intraocular pressure of rats in the GC-OHT group increased 1,2,3,and 4 weeks after modeling,and the differ-ences were all statistically significant(all P<0.01).Compared with the GC-OHT group,the intraocular pressure of rats in the OHT-E2 group decreased 3 and 4 weeks after modeling,and the differences were all statistically significant(all P<0.01).The P-ERG and F-VEP results showed that compared with the blank control group,the amplitudes of P50 and P1 waves of rats in the GC-OHT group decreased,and the differences were both statistically significant(both P<0.05).Com-pared with the GC-OHT group,the amplitudes of P50 and Pl waves of rats in the OHT-E2 group increased,and the differ-ences were both statistically significant(both P<0.05).The immunofluorescence staining results showed that compared with the blank control group,the number of RGCs of rats in the GC-OHT group decreased,and the difference was statisti-cally significant(P<0.001).Compared with the GC-OHT group,the number of RGCs of rats in the OHT-E2 group in-creased,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.001).The results of immunohistochemistry,Western blot,and real-time fluorescence-based quantitative polymerase chain reaction showed that compared with the blank control group,the relative protein and mRNA expression levels of NLRP3,Caspase-1,and GSDMD in the retina of rats in the GC-OHT group all increased,and the differences were all statistically significant(all P<0.05).Compared with the GC-OHT group,the relative protein and mRNA expression levels of NLRP3,Caspase-1,and GSDMD in the retina of rats in the OHT-E2 group all decreased,and the differences were all statistically significant(all P<0.01).Conclusion GC-induced OHT can cause pyroptosis of RGCs,and E2 may alleviate the injury of RGCs in rats with OHT by inhibiting the pyroptosis-related NLRP3/Caspase-1/GSDMD signaling pathway.
