With the widespread application of low-dose computed tomography (CT), the detection rate of multiple lung cancers (MLCs) is gradually increasing. The diagnosis and treatment of MLCs have become a major challenge in clinical practice in thoracic surgery and oncology. In April 2025, the Lung Cancer Professional Committee of the China Anti-Cancer Association (CACA) organized multidisciplinary experts from both domestic and international fields to release the first edition of the CACA Expert Consensus on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Multiple Lung Cancers, providing systematic recommendations for the diagnostic system, molecularassessment strategies, and surgical and non-surgical management of MLCs. This article provides a detailed interpretation of the core content of this consensus and, by incorporating the latest research progress in the field, delves into the pathogenesis, precise diagnostic strategies, and individualized treatment pathways for multiple lung cancers, aiming to offer a more comprehensive reference for clinical practice.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy and safety of Yanghe Xiaonang Decoction （阳和消囊汤， YXD） in the treatment of polycystic ovarian syndrome （PCOS）-related infertility with healthy qi deficiency and phlegm stasis syndrome. MethodsA total of 120 PCOS-related infertility participants with healthy qi deficiency and phlegm stasis syndrome were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group in a 1∶1 ratio， with 60 cases in each group. The treatment group started taking YXD on the first day of the menstrual cycle， one dose daily， until the day of sexual intercourse when follicles matured and were released. Those without mature follicles or ovulation could take it until the 14th to 28th day. The control group was given oral letrozole at 2.5 mg daily starting on the 5th day of the menstrual cycle for 5 consecutive days. If the basal body temperature curve remained monophasic on the 28th day of the menstrual cycle， and no dominant follicle was detected by color Doppler ultrasound， estrogen plus progesterone or progesterone alone was administered for withdrawal bleeding， followed by a new treatment cycle. The treatment lasted for three consecutive menstrual cycles. Patients were followed up for 3 months upon confirmed pregnancy or after the completion of the 3rd treatment cycle. The clinical pregnancy rate， total effective rate， pregnancy rate， biochemical pregnancy rate， embryonic arrest rate， and ectopic pregnancy rate between the two groups were compared. Transvaginal color Doppler ultrasound was used for monitoring endometrial thickness， cyclic ovulation status， number of follicles between 2-9 mm， and the difference in transverse and longitudinal diameters of dominant follicles. The levels of endocrine hormone indicators including serum testosterone （T）， prolactin （PRL）， luteinizing hormone （LH）， follicle-stimulating hormone （FSH）， progesterone （P）， estradiol （E₂）， free testosterone （F-T）， androstenedione （ASD）， inhibin B （INH-B）， and anti-Müllerian hormone （AMH）， as well as the total traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） symptom scores before and after treatment were compared between the two groups. ResultsA total of 58 patients in each group were included in the statistical analysis. The clinical pregnancy rate in the treatment group was 39.66% （23/58）， higher than 22.41% （13/58） in the control group （P＜0.05）. The total effective rate in the treatment group was 96.55% （56/58）， higher than 79.31% （46/58） in the control group （P＜0.05）. The biochemical pregnancy rate and embryonic arrest rate in the treatment group were lower than those in the control group （P＜0.05）. The treatment group was superior to the control group in increasing endometrial thickness and reducing the number of 2-9 mm follicles at the 2nd and 3rd cycles， as well as in improving the cyclic ovulation status and the difference in transverse and longitudinal diameters of dominant follicles at the 3rd cycle （P＜0.05）. After treatment， the treatment group exhibited significant reductions in serum T， LH， F-T， ASD， INH-B， and AMH levels （P＜0.05）. The control group also showed significant decreases in LH， F-T， INH-B， and AMH levels （P＜0.05）. The levels of F-T， INH-B， and AMH in the treatment group after treatment were lower than those in the control group （P＜0.05）. The improvement of the total TCM symptom score in the treatment group was superior to that in the control group （P＜0.05）. ConclusionYXD can significantly improve the clinical pregnancy rate， reduce the rates of biochemical pregnancy and embryonic arrest， alleviate clinical symptoms， increase endometrial thickness， enhance dominant follicles， and improve endocrine hormone levels in PCOS-related infertility with healthy qi deficiency and phlegm stasis syndrome， showing good safety.

[Purpose]To investigate the acceptance and willingness-to-pay(WTP)of combined can-cer screening among rural residents in Shandong Province,and to analyze its influencing factors.[Methods]A face-to-face questionnaire survey was conducted among rural residents aged 40～70 in villages setected by cluster sampling from three counties(county level city or district)in Shan-dong Province.The questionnaire was developed using the method of double-bound dichotomous choice combined with open-ended questions in contingent valuation.The factors influencing inten-sity of WTP was analyzed with using single-factor and ordinary least squares regression models.[Results]A total of 962 subjects were surveyed.89.19％of the respondents were willing to accept cancer combined screening,and 62.00％were willing to pay part of the costs.The average of WTP was 963.67 CNY,which accounted for 32.12％of the total cost.The proportion of respon-dents who were willing to pay between 0～1 500 CNY was the highest(76.49％).In the multivariate analysis,age,sex and income had significant effects on the maximum payment of multi-cancer screening.[Conclusion]The acceptance of multi-cancer screening among rural residents in the study sites is high,but the willingness-to-pay is limited.The out-of-pocket payment for multi-can-cer screening should be controlled,and a co-payment mechanism among government,enterprises,social organizations and individuals should be explored.

Objective To observe the value of artificial intelligence iterative reconstruction(AIIR)for low-dose chest CT images of infants with congenital heart disease.Methods Totally 262 infants with congenital heart disease who would undergo chest CT scanning were prospectively enrolled and randomly divided into low-dose group(n=142)and conventional dose group(n=120).Chest CT scanning with tube voltage of 80 kVp and tube current of 10 mAs was performed in low-dose group,and hybrid iterative reconstruction(HIR,group A)and AIIR(group B)were used to reconstruct images,respectively.In conventional dose group,chest CT scanning with tube voltage of 80 kVp and tube current of 100 mAs was performed,and HIR was used to reconstruct images(group C).Then subjective and objective evaluation on image quality were performed,the results were compared among 3 groups,and the value of AIIR was analyzed.Results Significant differences of image quality and clarity of displaying structures were found among 3 groups(all P＜0.001).Among them,except for the clarity of interlobar fissure,no significant difference of subjective scores was found between low-dose AIIR images and conventional dose HIR images(all corrected P＞0.05),while subjective scores of low-dose HIR images were all lower than those of low-dose AIIR images and conventional dose HIR images(all corrected P＜0.05).Significant differences of standard deviation(SD),signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)and contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR)were found among 3 groups(all P＜0.001)and between each 2 groups(all corrected P＜0.05).The effective dose of low-dose group and conventional dose group was 0.09(0.08,0.10)and 0.85(0.75,1.03)mSv,respectively,and the former was lower than the latter(Z=-13.942,P＜0.001).Conclusion Using AIIR could obtain low-dose chest CT images of infants with quality comparable to conventional chest CT images.

ObjectiveTo analyse the efficacy and mechanism of Guizhi Fulingwan in regulating sex hormone disorders in rats with benign prostatic hyperplasia （BPH）. MethodsThirty male SD rats were randomly divided into a sham group， a model group， a finasteride group （0.45 mg·kg^-1·d^-1）， and low-dose and high-dose groups of Guizhi Fulingwan （0.135， 0.337 5 g∙kg^-1∙d^-1）， with six in each group. The BPH model was prepared by subcutaneous injection of 3.5 mg∙kg^-1∙d^-1 testosterone propionate after debridement surgery in all groups except the sham group. The rats in the sham group and the model group were administered with an equal volume of saline by gavage， and the rest of the groups were administered with the corresponding medicinal solution by gavage for 35 days. Histopathology in rats was evaluated by prostate wet weight， volume， index， and hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining. The serum sex hormone levels of testosterone （T）， dihydrotestosterone （DHT）， and estradiol （E₂） were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The protein expression of the androgen receptor （AR） was detected by immunohistochemistry. The serum metabolism profiles of rats in the sham group， the model group， and the high-dose group of Guizhi Fulingwan were compared by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography tandem Fourier transform mass spectrometry （UHPLCQ Exactive） to screen for metabolic markers and to obtain relevant metabolic pathways. ResultsCompared with those in the sham group， the wet weight， volume， index， serum sex hormone level， and AR protein expression of the prostate in the model group were all elevated （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the histomorphology showed pathological changes. Compared with those in the model group， the wet weight， volume， index， serum sex hormone level， and AR protein expression of the prostate in the intervention groups showed a decreasing trend （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and histopathology was improved. Serum metabolomics analysis obtained a total of 40 metabolic markers related to the intervention effect of Guizhi Fulingwan， such as dehydrosafynol， hyoscyamine， and lumichrome， which were involved in the pathways of autophagy， riboflavin metabolism， and retrograde endocannabinoid signaling. ConclusionGuizhi Fulingwan can effectively regulate sex hormone disorders in BPH rats， and its mechanism may be related to autophagy， riboflavin metabolism， and retrograde endocannabinoid signaling.

Objective: To explore the intervention effects of high intensity interval training (HIIT) on glucose metabolism, cortisol (Cor), and sleep quality among college students with comorbid depressive symptoms and obesity, so as to provide a reference for improving sleep quality among college students with comorbid depressive symptoms and obesity. Methods: In March 2023, 45 college students with comorbid depressive symptoms and obesity were recruited and randomly assigned to an exercise group ( n =23) and a control group ( n =22) by random number table method. The exercise group received HIIT intervention for 12 weeks, three times a week, while the control group received no intervention. Blood samples were collected from participants to measure fasting insulin (FINS), fasting blood glucose (FBG), homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), Cor, and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) before and after intervention. Statistical analysis was performed using t-test, repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA), simple effect analysis. Results: The repeated measures ANOVA revealed statistically significant time×group interaction effects for body composition (weight, body mass index, percentage of body fat, fat mass, waist to hip ratio), depressive symptoms, PSQI scores and its subdimensions (subjective sleep quality, sleep onset time, sleep efficiency, sleep disorders, daytime dysfunction), as well as FBG, FINS, and HOMA-IR between the exercise group and control group before and after intervention ( F =7.10-53.38, all P <0.05). Simple effect analysis showed that compared to the control group, the exercise group demonstrated significant improvements in body composition (body mass index, fat mass, waist to hip ratio), depressive symptoms, PSQI scores and its sub dimensions (subjective sleep quality, sleep onset time, sleep efficiency, sleep disorders, daytime dysfunction), FBG, FINS, HOMA-IR, and Cor (all P <0.05). Conclusion HIIT can improve the sleep quality of college students with comorbid depressive symptoms and obesity by enhancing glucose metabolism and regulating Cor levels.

Objective To investigate the effect of heated povidone iodine solution on pain intensity and ulcer healing in patients with chronic venous leg ulcer after debridement and dressing change.Methods A total of 58 patients with chronic venous leg ulcer who first visited outpatients and wards of Department of Cardiovascular Surgery,Department of Burns and Department of Plastic Surgery of The First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University from Jun.1,2023,to Jun.1,2024 were enrolled and randomly assigned to heated group(using 38 ℃ povidone iodine solution for debridement and flushing,n=29)or normal group(using 24 ℃ povidone iodine solution for debridement and flushing,n=29).The general baseline data of the 2 groups were compared,the pain intensity and wound bed temperature before and after debridement and dressing change were evaluated,and the change of pressure ulcer scale score for healing during the observation period and ulcer healing rate were observed.Results There were no significant differences between the 2 groups in age,gender,smoking,body mass index,whether the ulcer exudates,infection,duration of ulcer,ulcer area,pressure ulcer scale score for healing or analgesic use within 24 h(all P＞0.05).There was no significant difference in pain intensity between the 2 groups before or after dressing change and debridement(both P＞0.05).The pain intensity during debridement in the heated group was lower than that in the normal group(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the temperature of wound bed before flushing between the 2 groups(P＞0.05).The temperature of wound bed in the heated group was significantly higher than that in the normal group immediately after flushing and at the end of debridement and dressing change(P＜0.01,P＜0.05).The pressure ulcer scale score for healing in the heated group showed a trend of being lower than that in the normal group during the observation period,and the ulcer healing rate was significantly higher than that in the normal group(P=0.033,hazard ratio=0.452,95％confidence interval 0.217-0.941).Conclusion In patients with chronic venous leg ulcer,the use of heated povidone iodine solution can reduce the pain intensity during dressing change and debridement,maintain the stability of wound bed temperature,and promote the healing of ulcer.

Objective To compare the effects of upper limb remote ischemic preconditioning(RIPC)with different pressure modes on enhancing high-altitude acclimatization in healthy adult males rapidly exposed to high-altitude environments.Methods In May 2024,86 male adult residents living plain areas planning a high-altitude travel were recruited through advertisements in Chongqing by Department of Anesthesiology at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University.The participants were randomly divided into a variable pressure training group(n=29),a constant pressure training group(n=29),and a control group(n=28).The variable pressure training group underwent RIPC training in a variable pressure mode[occlusion pressure was set at systolic blood pressure(SBP)+40 mmHg],while the constant pressure training group received RIPC training in a constant pressure mode(fixed occlusion pressure of 200 mmHg).Both groups completed a bilateral upper limb RIPC training(twice daily,5 cycles per time of 10-min occlusion followed by 5-min reperfusion)for 14 d.The control group received no such training.On the 3rd day post-training,all participants entered a simulated 4 500 m altitude chamber for 7 h.The incidence and severity of acute mountain sickness(AMS)were observed and evaluated,and the vital signs and cerebral tissue oxygenation index(CTOI)were recorded.Results The incidence of AMS was 23.1%in the variable pressure training group(RR=0.4,95%CI:0.2～0.8,Chi-square=9.433,P=0.002)and 16.0%in the constant pressure training group(RR=0.2,95%CI:0.1～0.6,Chi-square=12.833,P<0.001),and both incidences were significantly lower than that in the control group(65.4%).The AMS symptom score in the variable pressure training group[1.5(0.8,3.0)vs(3.1±1.9),P=0.018]and the score in the constant pressure training group[1.0(1.0,2.0)vs(3.1±1.9),P=0.001]were significantly lower than that in the control group.The dizziness score was obviously lower in the variable pressure training group[0(0,1.0)vs 1.0(1.0,1.0),P=0.001]and the constant pressure training group[1.0(0,1.0)vs 1.0(1.0,1.0),P=0.003]than the control group,so was the fatigue/weakness score in the variable pressure training group[0(0,0.3)vs 1.0(0,1.0),P=0.006],the constant pressure training group[0 vs 1.0(0,1.0),P<0.001],and the control group.The change of CTOI(ΔCTOI)in the variable pressure training group(P=0.010)and the constant pressure training group(P=0.042)was significantly lower than that in the control group.There were no statistical differences in the 3 groups in terms of SpO2,HR,SBP or DBP(P>0.05).What's more,no significant differences were observed in the incidence of AMS,AMS score,dizziness score,fatigue/weakness score,or ΔCTOI between the variable pressure training group and the constant pressure training group(P>0.05).Conclusion Both upper limb RIPC protocols,variable-pressure(SBP+40 mmHg)and fixed-pressure(200 mmHg),can effectively enhance high-altitude acclimatization by reducing AMS incidence,symptom severity,and cerebral oxygen desaturation.

Polycystic ovary syndrome（PCOS） and its resulting infertility is one of the common diseases of gynecology and reproductive endocrinology. The phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B（PI3K/Akt） signaling pathway is relatively well-studied in the development of intervention in PCOS， and the experiments on PCOS in rats conducted by traditional Chinese medicine through this signaling pathway is also the main direction of mechanistic research. In this paper， 20 articles published in academic journals in the past 5 years were selected through the corresponding criteria， and the objective situation and existing problems of the selected research projects were analyzed from five aspects， namely， baseline data， modeling and treatment， grouping， evaluative indexes， and pharmacodynamic indexes. It is found that there were different degrees of problems in each research project， such as the observation indicators of modeling， criteria for judging the success of the model， the treatment period， the calculation of dosage of prescription/active ingredients and specific dosage were not clearly defined， which could easily lead the bias of the results or reduce the validity of experimental data. Based on this， the list of PCOS rat experimental research operations was formed， involving five categories of experimental rats， model construction， study implementation， outcome measures and analysis and report with a total of 21 operation lists， with a view to provide a reference for the subsequent PCOS experiments related to scientific research and helping to form high-quality results.
