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.

OBJECTIVE To investigate a suspected outbreak of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP)infection in the intensive care unit of a traditional Chinese medicine hospital,identify the source of infec-tion and transmission routes,and provide a basis for prevention and control of CRKP infection.METHODS Epide-miological investigations were conducted on five patients with CRKP infections or colonization who were identi-fied in Jul.2024 at Suiyang County Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine.Samples were collected from pa-tients,the ward environments,and hand surfaces to detect CRKP.Fourteen CRKP isolates were selected for car-bapenemase gene testing,and homology analysis was performed by enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus polymerase chain reaction(ERIC-PCR)and multilocus sequence typing(MLST).RESULTS The median age of the five cases was 73 years,and all had undergone multiple invasive procedures.Environmental monitoring showed a CRKP positive rate of 26.35％,with CRKP isolates detected on the hands of healthcare workers,surfaces in the wards and medical equipment surfaces.Genetic analysis showed that all 14 CRKP strains carried the KPC resist-ance gene;except for case 1,other strains carried the VIM gene.MLST identified CRKP of all strains as sequence type 48(ST48);while ERIC-PCR revealed two distinct genotypes:genotype A for case 1 and genotype B for the other cases and environmental isolates.After strengthening patient isolation and group treatment,strictly cleaning and disinfecting the ward environments and medical equipment,and strictly implementing hand hygiene,the infec-tion was effectively controlled.CONCLUSIONS Inadequate disinfection of the ward environments and medical e-quipment and poor compliance with hand hygiene are the main contributors to the suspected CRKP outbreak.Ho-mology analysis suggests the existence of two independent transmission chains.Timely identification and manage-ment of the infection sources,interruption of transmission routes,protection of susceptible individuals and imple-mentation of comprehensive infection control measures are essential for effective outbreak control.

Objective To explore the risk factors for portal vein thrombosis(PVT)in patients with cirrhosis in the decompensated stage and construct a risk prediction model for PVT so as to improve the early diagnosis rate of decompensated liver cirrhosis PVT.Methods The clinical data of patients with cirrhosis in the decompensated stage admitted to Department of Gastroenterology,The First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University between June 2018 and June 2023 were collected and divided into cirrhosis PVT group(n=135)and cirrhosis non-PVT group(n=225)according to whether or not portal vein thrombosis was formed.We made a univariate analysis of the general data,laboratory indexes,liver function scores and imaging findings of the patients in the two groups,and indexes with statistically significant differences were included in binary Logistic regression for multifactorial analysis to screen out independent risk factors.A predictive model of binary Logistic regression was established based on the independent risk factors.The clinical data of the validation set were incorporated into the model,the accuracy of the prediction model was evaluated by receiver operating curve(ROC),and the practicability of the model was evaluated by consistency curve to complete the validation and evaluation of the constructed prediction model.Internal stability of the model was verified with Bootstrap method.Finally,R software(4.3.1)was used to draw a nomogram of the prediction model to visualize the model.Results Univariate analysis revealed statistically significant differences between patients in the PVT and non-PVT groups in the following five aspects:history of splenectomy,history of endoscopic varicose vein treatment,portal vein diameter,and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(P＜0.05).Binary Logistics regression analysis showed that a history of splenectomy(P=0.002,OR=3.012,95％CI:1.500-6.047),a history of endoscopic varicose vein treatment(P=0.001,OR=2.276,95％CI:1.400-3.698),widening of portal vein diameter(P=0.007,OR=1.942,95％CI:1.202-3.136),increased neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(P=0.009,OR=1.886,95％CI:1.170-3.041),and elevated D-dimer(P＜0.001,OR=3.725,95％CI:2.149-6.485)were independent risk factors for the formation of portal vein thrombosis in patients with cirrhosis in the decompensated stage of cirrhosis chemically presented(P＜0.05).The area under the ROC curve of the predictive model and the model after internal validation was 0.760 and 0.7494,respectively.The model still had good prediction ability and accuracy in the verification set.Conclusion A history of splenectomy,history of endoscopic varicose vein treatment,widening of portal vein diameter,increased neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio,and elevated D-dimer concentration are independent risk factors for the formation of portal vein thrombosis in patients with decompensated cirrhosis.The Logistic prediction model and visual nomogram constructed based on the above independent risk factors have a good ability to predict the occurrence of PVT in patients with decompensated cirrhosis and have important clinical guiding significance for early screening patients with PVT in decompensated cirrhosis.

Objective To establish an efficient and stable model of pelvic inflammatory disease in rats via a non-surgical method,and to evaluate its application in pharmacodynamic testing.Methods Female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided randomly into the following groups:control group;model group with phenol for 7 d;model group with phenol for 10 d;treatment group modeled with phenol;model group with low concentration of bacteria;model group with high concentration of bacteria;and treatment group modeled with bacteria.Rats in the model and treatment groups were injected with 25%phenol gel and 2×107 or 2×108 Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus mixture via a non-surgical method,to construct a rat model of pelvic inflammatory disease.Rats in the treatment groups received the Chinese patent medicine Jingangteng capsules by gavage,and rats in the control group received the same volume of solvent solution.The health status,weight changes,and uterine appearance were monitored and the uterine coefficient was calculated.Pathological changes in the uterus and fallopian tubes,endometrial thickness,and number of glands were detected by hematoxylin and eosin staining.Serum levels of interleukin(IL)-1β,IL-6,and tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Protein expression of the macrophage marker CD68 was detected by immunofluorescence.Expression of Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4)/nuclear factor(NF)-κB pathway-related proteins in the uterus was detected by Western blot.Results The mortality rate in the model group was only 5%.Compared with the control group,model rats showed decreased body weight,increased uterine coefficient,pathological changes in the uterus and Fallopian tubes,thinner endometrium,fewer glands,significantly higher serum levels of IL-1β,IL-6,and TNF-α and more macrophages in the uterine tissue,and activation of the TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway.The 7 d phenol and low-concentration bacterial solution models were judged to be mild pelvic inflammatory disease models,and the 10 d phenol and high-concentration bacterial solution models were considered severe pelvic inflammatory disease models.Treatment with Jingangteng capsules relieved the pathological symptoms in the uterus and fallopian tubes,in line with the efficacy evaluation of clinical pelvic inflammatory disease.Conclusions We established rat models of pelvic inflammatory disease using phenol and a mixed bacterial solution via a non-surgical method,to simulate the different pathological states of pelvic inflammatory disease caused by different factors.These models will be suitable for evaluating drug efficacy and elucidating the pathological mechanism of pelvic inflammatory disease.

Objective To evaluate the application value of nucleic acid mass spectrometry in detecting ERG11 gene mutations associated with azole resistance in Candida tropicalis(C.tropicalis),thereby providing a scientific basis for the rational clinical use of azole antifungal agents.Methods Clinical isolates of C.tropicalis were obtained from the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University between July 2023 and November 2024.For each isolate,specific ERG11 mutations(A395T and C461T)were analyzed using Sanger sequencing and nucleic acid mass spectrometry.Sanger sequencing was used as the reference standard to evaluate the performance of mass spectrometry in mutation detection.Results The established nucleic acid mass spectrometry method effectively identified four genotypes of ERG11(A395T and C461T),with distinct spectral peaks for each mutation and no cross-interference observed.Among 88 clinical isolates,the sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value(PPV),and negative predictive value(NPV)for the A395T mutation were 86.7%,100%,100%,and 97.3%,respectively.For the C461T mutation,the corresponding values were 81.3%,100%,100%,and 96.0%,respectively.Kappa statistics demonstrated a high level of agreement between mass spectrometry and sequencing results.Conclusions Nucleic acid mass spectrometry exhibits high sensitivity and specificity in the detection of ERG11 mutations,enabling rapid,accurate,and adaptable high-throughput analysis.This makes it a highly effective method for identifying mutations associated with fungal resistance.

Objective:To investigate the effectiveness of the crisis management theory of reduction, readiness, response and recovery (4R) in the prevention of postoperative complications in patients with lower extremity varices.Methods:Convenience sampling was used to select 172 patients who underwent surgical treatment for lower extremity varices in the Hefei First People's Hospital from October 2022 to November 2023 as study subjects. Patients admitted from October 2022 to June 2023 were recruited in control group ( n=88) with routine nursing. Patients admitted from July to November 2023 were included in observation group ( n=84) , and nursing interventions based on the 4R crisis management theory were implemented on the basis of control group. Postoperative ulcer surface healing time, time for calf numbness to subside, pain scores and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. Results:The time for disappearance of ulcer surface and the time for calf numbness to subside of the patients in observation group were shorter than those in control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Before the intervention, the pain score was (3.58±0.61) in observation group and (3.72±0.57) in control group, and the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05) . After the intervention, the pain score was (2.33±0.55) in observation group and (2.50±0.50) in control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . The incidence of postoperative complications was 4.76% (4/84) in observation group and 19.32% (17/88) in control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Nursing interventions based on the 4R crisis management theory can effectively alleviate the pain of patients undergoing lower extremity varicose vein surgery, shorten the time of ulcer healing and calf numbness, and reduce the incidence of postoperative complications.

Obesity is a significant risk factor for cancer and is associated with breast cancer metastasis. Nevertheless, the mechanism by which alterations in systemic metabolism affect tumor microenvironment (TME) and consequently influence tumor metastasis remains inadequately understood. Herein, we found that perturbations in circulating metabolites induced by obesity promote metastasis-like phenotypes in breast cancer. Oleoylcarnitine (OLCarn) concentrations were elevated in the serum of obese mice and humans. Administration of exogenous OLCarn induces metastasis-like characteristics in breast cancer cells. Mechanistically, OLCarn directly interacts with the Arg176 site of adenylate cyclase 10 (ADCY10), leading to the activation of ADCY10 and enhancement of cAMP production. Mutations at Arg176 prevent OLCarn from binding to ADCY10, disrupting the ADCY10-mediated activation of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) signaling pathway. This activation promotes transcription factor 4 (TCF4)-dependent kinesin family member C1 (KIFC1) transcription, thereby driving breast cancer metastasis. Conversely, the neutralization of both ADCY10 and KIFC1 through knockdown or pharmacological inhibition abrogates the oncogenic effects mediated by OLCarn. Hence, obesity-induced systemic environmental changes lead to the aberrant accumulation of OLCarn within the TME, making it a potential therapeutic target and biomarker for breast cancer.

Ovarian cancer poses a significant threat to women's health, necessitating effective therapeutic strategies. Emd-D, an emodin derivative, demonstrates enhanced pharmaceutical properties and bioavailability. In this study, Cell Counting Kit 8 (CCK8) assays and Ki-67 staining revealed dose-dependent inhibition of cell proliferation by Emd-D. Migration and invasion experiments confirmed its inhibitory effects on OVHM cells, while flow cytometry analysis demonstrated Emd-D-induced apoptosis. Mechanistic investigations elucidated that Emd-D functions as an inhibitor by directly binding to the glycolysis-related enzyme PFKFB4. This was corroborated by alterations in intracellular lactate and pyruvate levels, as well as glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) and hexokinase 2 (HK2) expression. PFKFB4 overexpression experiments further supported the dependence of Emd-D on PFKFB4-mediated glycolysis and SRC3/mTORC1 pathway-associated apoptosis. In vivo experiments exhibited reduced xenograft tumor sizes upon Emd-D treatment, accompanied by suppressed glycolysis and increased expression of Bax/Bcl-2 apoptotic proteins within the tumors. In conclusion, our findings demonstrate Emd-D's potential as an anti-ovarian cancer agent through inhibition of the PFKFB4-dependent glycolysis pathway and induction of apoptosis. These results provide a foundation for further exploration of Emd-D as a promising drug candidate for ovarian cancer treatment.

Objective:To investigate the mechanism of microRNA-597-3p ( miR-579-3p) in improving hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) by regulating the interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 1 (IRAK1)/tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6)/transforming growth factor-β-activated kinase 1 (TAK1)/nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway. Methods:Peripheral blood of healthy neonates ( n=5) and HIE newborns ( n=5) from June 2023 to June 2024 in the No.215 Hospital of Shaanxi Nuclear Industry were collected. The differential expression of miRNA in peripheral blood of neonates with HIE was analyzed by next-generation sequencing. The oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) method was used to establish the HIE cell model, which was designated as the OGD group, while cells without OGD treatment served as the control group. Rat adrenal pheochromocytoma PC12 cells were transfected with miR-579-3p mimic (mimic), mimic negative control (mimic-NC), miR-579-3p inhibitor (inhibitor), inhibitor negative control (inhibitor-NC), respectively, and divided into the mimic group, mimic-NC group, inhibitor group, inhibitor-NC group. On the basis of mimic group and inhibitor group, IRAK1 overexpression plasmid ( oeIRAK1) and IRAK1 small interfering RNA plasmid ( siIRAK1) were transfected respectively, which were divided into oeIRAK1 group and siIRAK1 group. The relative expression level of mRNA was detected by real-time reverse transcription-PCR. The absorbance ( A) value was detected by cell counting kit-8 assay. The apoptosis rate was detected by Annexin Ⅴ-fluorescein isothiocyanate/propidium iodide double staining. The relative expression of protein was detected by Western blotting. The levels of pro-inflammatory factors and anti-oxidative stress factors were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Bioinformatics analysis was used to predict the binding site between miR-579-3p and IRAK1, and the dual-luciferase reporter assay was performed to validate their targeting relationship. A total of 12 7-day-old SD rats were selected and randomly divided into the HIE group and the sham group by the random number table method. In the HIE group, the right common carotid artery of rats was permanently occluded, followed by hypoxia exposure, whereas rats in the sham group only underwent common carotid artery exposure without ligation or hypoxia treatment. Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expression of protein in brain tissue of HIE rats. The least significant difference t-test was used for comparison between the two groups, and one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between multiple groups.
