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.

Super-pulse thulium fiber laser (hereinafter referred to as thulium laser) has shown broad application prospects in medical research, especially in the treatment of urinary tract stones.Thulium laser has a thin fiber diameter, which reduces the occupation of the working channel and increases the irrigation water flow.Currently, the peak power reaches up to 500 W, the single pulse energy to 6 J, and the frequency to 2000 Hz.The stone-breaking mechanism of thulium laser is photothermal and photomechanical.Different combinations of energy and frequency will significantly affect the volume of stone fragments. "High energy and low frequency" is more suitable for "fragmentation" stone breaking, while "low energy and high frequency" is more suitable for "powderization" stone breaking.Some in vitro experiments have confirmed that thulium laser has higher stone-breaking efficiency, less stone displacement, and more obvious thermal effects compared to holmium laser.Clinically, thulium laser has been applied to ureteroscopic lithotripsy and percutaneous nephrolithotomy., and the stone free rate and safety are relatively high.This article reviews the stone-breaking principles, in vitro experiments, and clinical applications of thulium laser, aiming to provide better theoretical support and practical experience for the development and application of super-pulse thulium fiber laser in the future.

OBJECTIVE To establish the fingerprint of Gerbera delavayi and the methods for the content determination of 11 components in G. delavayi. METHODS High-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)was adopted to establish the fingerprints of 13 batches of G. delavayi(No. S1-S13), and the similarities were evaluated according to Similarity Evaluation System of Chromatographic Fingerprint of TCM (2012 edition), while the common peaks were identified. Hierarchical clustering analysis (HCA), principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least square-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) were carried out by using SPSS 25.0 software and SIMCA 14.1 software. The contents of neochlorogenic acid, chlorogenic acid, cryptochlorogenic acid, 3,8-dihydroxy-4-methoxy-2-oxo-2H-1-benzopyran-5-carboxylic acid, caffeic acid, 3-hydroxy-4-methoxy-2- oxo-2H-1-benzopyran- 5-carboxylic acid, luteolin-7-O-β-D-glucoside, isochlorogenic acid A, apigenin-7-O-β-D-glucoside, isochlorogenic acid C and xanthotoxin were determined by HPLC. RESULTS The similarities in HPLC fingerprint of 13 batches of G. delavayi were 0.801-0.994; a total of 38 common peaks were identified and 13 common peaks were identified. The results of HCA showed that S1-S5 and S7 were clustered into one group, S6 into one category, S8 into one category, S9 and S11 into one category, S10, S12 and S13 into one category, and the results of PCA were consistent with them. The results of OPLS-DA showed that variable importance values for the projection of peak 7 (chlorogenic acid), peak 21 (isochlorogenic acid A), peak 26 (xanthotoxin), peak 19 (isochlorogenic acid B), peak 33, peak 13, peak 23 (isochlorogenic acid C), peak 2 (new chlorogenic acid), peak 17 (luteolin-7-O-β-D- glucoside) were greater than 1. The above 11 components had good linearity in their respective detection concentration ranges (r was greater than 0.999). RSDs of precision, repeatability, and stability tests were not more than 2% (n=6). The average recovery rates were 92.54%-105.55%, and the RSDs were 0.83%-1.93% (n=6). The average contents of 11 components were 0.744, 5.014, 0.646, 0.431, 0.069, 0.582, 0.979, 2.754, 0.157, 1.284 and 2.943 mg/g, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The constructed HPLC fingerprint and content determination methods are simple, accurate and stable, which can provide reference for quality control of G. delavayi. Xanthotoxin, chlorogenic acid, isochlorogenic acid A, luteolin-7-O- β -D-glucoside, isochlorogenic acid C and new chlorogenic acid can be used as markers for G. delavayi.
4.New treatment methods for complex urinary stones: Needle-perc assisted endoscopic surgery
Journal of Modern Urology 2025;30(2):91-94
Complex urinary stones have been the focus and difficulty of clinical treatment.Traditional multi-channel percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) has a high stone-free rate and efficacy in the treatment of multiple or large volume kidney stones,but has risk of serious complications such as bleeding and injury.Retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) has been preferred in the treatment of renal stones with a diameter of less than 2 cm due to its characteristics of small trauma and fast recovery.However,it is difficult to treat small calyx stones with poor anatomy,lower renal calyx stones with small IPA,and diverticulum stones.Needle-perc assisted endoscopic surgery (NAES) includes the following modes:①Needle-perc plus PCNL,which can effectively reduce the number of channels,reduce surgical risks,and protect kidney function while ensuring a high stone-free rate; ②Needle-perc plus RIRS,which can significantly improve the success rate and stone-free rate without increasing kidney damage,thus having significant advantages in dealing with complex urinary stones.In order to popularize and promote this technique,this essay will review the relevant domestic and foreign literature and the clinical experience of our center,focusing on the indications,usage specifications,operative skills and precautions of NAES.

Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the molecular regulatory mechanism of cancer susceptibility candidate 15(CASC15),a long-stranded non-coding RNA(lncRNA),in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods Bioinformat-ics methods were used to predict the expression of target genes and analyze the relationship between the expression of target genes and the survival time of patients;Hepatocellular carcinoma tissues and adjacent tissues from patients with HCC were collected;CCK-8,Tr-answell,and flow cytometry experiments were used to detect proliferation,invasion,migration and apoptosis of SMMC7721 cells and Huh-7 cells;The dual-luciferase assay was used to detect the targeting relationship between miR-144-3p and CASC15,as well as leucine rich repeat containing protein 1(LRRC1);RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to detect mRNA and protein expression of target genes;Immunofluorescence was used for protein localization of target genes;Replicate experiment was performed to verify the effect of CASC15/miR-144-3p/LRRC1 on the progression of HCC.In vivo experiment was performed to verify the effect of CASC15 on HCC progression.Results TCGA database and RT-qPCR assay showed high expression of CASC15,low expression of miR-144-3p,and high expression of LRRC1 in HCC tissues and cells(P<0.05).The results of cell function experiments on proliferation,inva-sion and migration showed that CASC15 and LRRC1 played a promoting role in tumor development,while miR-144-3p had an inhibi-tory effect,consistent with the results of apoptosis experiments(P<0.05).Cell function experiments showed that CASC15 inhibited miR-144-3p function,miR-144-3p inhibited LRRC1,and CASC15 bound to miR-144-3p,leading to the upregulation of LRRC1.The replicate experimental results indicated that CASC15 promoted LRRC1 expression through inhibiting miR-144-3p,thereby pro-moting HCC cell proliferation,invasion and migration,and inhibiting apoptosis.Conclusion CASC15 may promote HCC progression by regulating the miR-144-3p/LRRC1 axis.
