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.

[摘 要] 目的：探讨含溴结构域蛋白1（BRD1）通过调控PI3K/AKT信号通路影响非小细胞肺癌（NSCLC）进展的作用机制。方法：利用TIMER 3.0数据库评估BRD1作为免疫治疗标志物的预测价值。利用慢病毒体系构建稳定过表达BRD1及N端截短突变体BRD1-ΔN的人肺癌细胞A549和NCI-H1299。采用CCK-8实验、克隆形成实验、划痕愈合实验及Transwell实验检测过表达BRD1/BRD1-ΔN对细胞增殖和迁移能力的影响；流式细胞术和Western blotting检测细胞凋亡水平及凋亡相关蛋白的变化。RNA-seq筛选受BRD1/BRD1-ΔN影响的信号通路，Western blotting及体外激酶实验验证BRD1/BRD1-ΔN过表达对AKT磷酸化的调控作用。采用AKT抑制剂LY294002处理过表达BRD1/BRD1-ΔN的NCI-H1299细胞，结合功能实验（CCK-8实验、划痕愈合实验）明确过表达BRD1/BRD1-ΔN促进细胞的增殖和迁移是否依赖AKT活化。通过RNA-seq联合KEGG/GSEA分析、免疫共沉淀（Co-IP）、RT-qPCR，鉴定整合素α2（ITGA2）是促进AKT活化的关键分子；通过Co-IP、敲低ITGA2、Western blotting及功能实验明确ITGA2在BRD1调控AKT活化中的具体作用。结果：数据库分析显示，BRD1可作为NSCLC免疫治疗的中等预测标志物（AUC = 0.625）。过表达BRD1/BRD1-ΔN显著增强了NSCLC细胞的增殖和迁移能力（P < 0.01或P < 0.001），但不影响细胞凋亡及凋亡相关蛋白的表达（均P > 0.05）；RNA-seq分析表明过表达BRD1/BRD1-ΔN主要富集于PI3K/AKT信号通路。Western blotting及体外激酶实验显示，BRD1/BRD1-ΔN过表达不影响AKT上游激酶（PDK1）的磷酸化，也不改变AKT的乙酰化修饰水平（均P > 0.05）；AKT抑制剂LY294002处理过表达BRD1/BRD1-ΔN细胞，发现BRD1/BRD1-ΔN促细胞增殖和迁移的作用部分依赖AKT的活化；RT-qPCR及Western blotting证实，BRD1过表达可上调ITGA2的mRNA和蛋白水平，敲低ITGA2则可逆转BRD1诱导的AKT激活及细胞增殖和迁移能力的增强。结论：BRD1是NSCLC的一种新型促癌因子，其通过上调ITGA2表达激活AKT信号通路，进而促进肺癌细胞的增殖和迁移。

ObjectiveTo investigate the potential mechanism of Yiqi Yangyin Huoxue Formula （益气养阴活血方， YYHF） in the treatment of membranous nephropathy （MN） based on the NOX4-mediated stromal cell-derived factor-1α（SDF-1α）/CXC chemokine receptor 4 （CXCR4） signaling pathway. MethodsA total of 42 male SD rats were randomly divided into blank group （n=6） and modeling group （n=36）. The modeling rats were given a single injection of sheep antirat Fx1A （6 ml/kg） serum into the tail vein to establish MN model. Thirty-six rats with successful modeling were further divided into model group （normal saline， 10 ml/kg）， benazepril group （10 mg·kg^-1·d^-1）， the medium-dose YYHF group （11.0 g·kg^-1·d^-1） and high-dose YYHF group （22.0 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， with 9 rats in each group. All groups received daily intragastric administration for 6 consecutive weeks. During the experimental period， the general condition of rats in each group was observed. After gavage administration finished， a fully automated biochemical analyzer was used to measure the 24-hour urine total protein （24 h-UTP） and serum biochemical parameters， including albumin （ALB）， aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， blood urea nitrogen （BUN）， serum creatinine （SCr）， total cholesterol （TC）， and triglyceride （TG）. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining and periodic acid-silver metheramine （PASM） staining were used to observe the histopathological changes of renal tissues in each group of rats. The levels of superoxide dismutase （SOD） and malondialdehyde （MDA） in renal tissues were detected by ELISA. The protein expression levels of NOX4， SDF-1α， CXCR4， Nrf2， nuclear factor kappa B subunit p65 （NF-κB p65） and podocyte slit diaphragm protein nephrin in rat renal tissues were detected by Western Blotting. The mRNA expressions of NOX4， SDF-1α， CXCR4， Nrf2， NF-κB p65 and Nephrin in renal tissues were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （RT-PCR）. ResultsCompared to the blank group， rats in the model group exhibited typical features of MN， including lethargy， reduced activity， dull and coarse fur， marked edema， and massive proteinuria. Compared to the model group， these abnormal conditions were improved to varying degrees in all treatment groups. The high-dose YYHF group showed a level of improvement comparable to that of the benazepril group， with overall recovery superior to that of the medium-dose YYHF group. Compared to the blank group， the model group showed increased levels of 24 h-UTP， BUN， SCr， TC and TG， decreased level of ALB， increased levels of MDA and protein and mRNA expressions of NOX4， SDF-1α， CXCR4 and NF-κB p65 in renal tissue， along with decreased levels of SOD and protein and mRNA expressions of Nrf2， Nephrin （P＜0.01）， accompanied by severe renal pathological damage. Compared to the model group， the benazepril and the medium- and high-dose YYHF groups showed significant improvements in the above indicators （P＜0.01）， along with alleviation of renal pathological injury. The 24 h-UTP level in the high-dose YYHF group was lower than that in the medium-dose group （P＜0.01）， while no statistically significant difference was observed among the other treatment groups （P＞0.01）. ConclusionYYHF may alleviate oxidative stress and inflammatory responses by down-regulating the expression of NOX4 and inhibiting the SDF-1α/CXCR4-Nrf2 signaling pathway， thereby improving podocyte damage and protecting renal function.

Objective To investigate the expression characteristics, prognostic value, and correlation with immune infiltration of vasoactive intestinal peptide receptor 2 (VIPR2) in esophageal adenocarcinoma (ESAD). Methods Transcriptome data of 80 ESAD and 10 normal tissues were retrieved from the TCGA database. Immune-related differential genes were identified by integrating the ImmPort database. Cox regression analysis was applied to evaluate the prognostic significance of VIPR2. GSVA and ssGSEA were employed to assess the association between VIPR2 and immune-cell infiltration. Functional enrichment was performed using GO, KEGG, and GSEA. Results VIPR2 expression was significantly downregulated in ESAD tissues (P<0.05). High VIPR2 expression was associated with prolonged overall survival (HR=0.246, P=0.047), serving as an independent prognostic factor. Fifteen immune-cell types, including CD8⁺ T cells, NK cells, and dendritic cells, showed significantly higher infiltration in the VIPR2-high group, whereas Th17-cell abundance was decreased (P<0.05). Enrichment analyses revealed that VIPR2 participated in multiple tumor-immune pathways and was positively correlated with PD-1 and CTLA-4 expression (P<0.01). Conclusion VIPR2 may serve as a potential biomarker in the prognostic assessment and could modulate the tumor-immune microenvironment in ESAD.

OBJECTIVE To establish a method for simultaneous determination of venetoclax， busulfan and voriconazole in plasma of patients with acute myeloid leukemia （AML）， and apply it clinically. METHODS Plasma samples were subjected to protein precipitation using acetonitrile and subsequently analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry （LC-MS/MS） using venetoclax-D 8 ， busulfan-D 8 and posaconazole as internal standards. The separation was performed on a Phenomenex Kinetex ® C 18 column with a mobile phase composed of 0.1% formic acid solution （2 mmol/L ammonium acetate）-0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile （gradient elution） at a flow rate of 0.8 mL/min. The column temperature was set at 40 ℃， the sample size was 5 μL， and the total run time was 3.10 min. An electrospray ionization source was employed， and positive ion scanning was conducted using multiple reaction monitoring mode. The ion pairs used for quantitative analysis included m/z 868.4→636.3 （venetoclax）， m/z 264.1→151.1 （busulfan）， and m/z 350.1→224.0 （voriconazole）. The above LC-MS/MS method was adopted to determine plasma concentrations of venetoclax and voriconazole in 10 AML patients， as well as plasma concentration of busulfan in 5 patients undergoing conditioning treatment for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. RESULTS The linear ranges of venetoclax， busulfan and voriconazole were 50-10 000， 15-3 000 and 50-10 000 ng/mL， respectively （ R 2 ≥0.999 0）， with lower limits of quantification of 50， 15 and 50 ng/mL， respectively. The RSDs of intra-day and inter-day precision tests for all three analytes were all less than 10%， with accuracy （relative errors） ranging from －10.00% to 12.96%. The average extraction recovery ranged from 92.54% to 100.95%， and the average matrix effect was 89.98%-101.49%. Dilution reliability covered all dilution factors used in the test samples， and the absolute values of relative errors in stability tests were all≤16.25%. The plasma concentrations of venetoclax， busulfan and voriconazole in enrolled patients were 496.20-4 250.45， 233.48-2 002.28 and 475.51-5 710.18 ng/mL， respectively. CONCLUSIONS The LC-MS/MS method established in this study is rapid， sensitive and easy to operate， and can be used for the therapeutic drug monitoring of venetoclax， busulfan and voriconazole.

From the theoretical perspective of "body fluids and blood stasis mixing"， environmental microplastics （MPs） are conceptualized as a "novel turbid-toxin". This study aims to elucidate the complete pathogenic pathway through which MPs act as a key driving force （the "crucible" of pathogenesis） in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis （AS）. By tracing the classical theories in the Chapter The Occurrence of All Diseases of Miraculous Pivot （Ling Shu）， this paper clarifies the core connotations of "body fluids"-it not only refers to endogenous pathological fluids and lipid turbidity but also provides a theoretical basis for incorporating "exogenous turbid fluids"， thereby laying a logical foundation for conceptualizing MPs as a "novel turbid-toxin". Meanwhile， the implications of "blood" （encompassing both blood quality abnormalities and blood stasis） and the dynamic process of "mixing" are elucidated. Drawing upon modern toxicological evidence， this paper demonstrates the high homology between MPs and "exogenous turbid-fluids" from three aspects： Morphology， toxicity， and invasion routes. The micro/nano-scale particle morphology of MPs enables mobility within the bloodstream. The multiple exposure pathways of MPs correspond to the traditional Chinese medicine understanding of pathogens invading through the mouth， nose， and skin. The characteristics of accumulating in vivo while inducing oxidative stress and inflammatory responses of MPs fully embody the pathogenic features-adhesion， binding， and vessel damage-of "turbid-toxin". On this basis， the dynamic pathogenesis of MP-induced AS is systematically interpreted. Initially， MPs with the "turbid-toxin" nature impair nutrient-defense harmony and cause endothelial dysfunction. Subsequently， as the core of "mixing"， they interact with blood lipids and immune cells， generating heat and phlegm to form a major pathological hub of chronic inflammation. Ultimately， this process drives the coalescence of phlegm， stasis， and turbid-toxin into tangible plaques， evolving from stable lesions to vulnerable masses and accumulations. By integrating classical pathogenic model with contemporary environmental medicine， this study establishes an analytical framework that bridges macro-theory and micro-mechanisms for understanding the cardiovascular risks of MPs through an integrative Chinese-Western medicine lens.

Objective To investigate the value of 3.0 T MRI in-phase/opposed-phase (IP-OP) imaging features in the quantitative assessment of hepatic steatosis after liver transplantation. Methods Clinical data of 115 patients who underwent liver transplantation and completed MRI IP-OP examination and liver biopsy within 3 months were retrospectively collected. According to the gold standard of pathological results, patients were divided into the steatosis group (n=18) and the non-steatosis group (n=97). The relative signal intensity of hepatic parenchyma was measured on MRI IP-OP sequences, and the hepatic fat fraction (HFF) was calculated. Differences in clinical data and imaging features between the two groups were compared, and the efficacy of HFF in the diagnosis of graft hepatic steatosis was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results Among the 115 recipients, 18 cases were diagnosed with hepatic steatosis by liver biopsy, including 13 cases of mild steatosis, 3 cases of moderate steatosis and 2 cases of severe steatosis. Compared with the non-steatosis group, the steatosis group had a lower proportion of hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related hepatocellular carcinoma, higher proportions of HBV-related liver failure and alcoholic liver cirrhosis, and higher platelet levels (all P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in hepatic imaging features between the two groups (all P<0.05). The ROC curve showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of the quantitative value calculated by IP-OP in the diagnosis of graft hepatic steatosis was 0.925 (95% confidence interval 0.870-0.980). Conclusions 3.0 T MRI IP-OP sequence may accurately and non-invasively quantitatively assess the severity of hepatic steatosis after liver transplantation, which is of great value for the early detection of graft hepatic steatosis and the guidance of clinical intervention.

Neurocritical care involves complex pathophysiological mechanisms, and its incidence is higher, injuries are more severe, and treatment is more challenging in high-altitude environments. This consensus, based on the latest domestic and international evidence-based medical data, establishes a standardized, goal-oriented framework for neurocritical care management applicable in high-altitude regions and nationwide. The consensus was developed following international standards for evidence quality assessment and underwent two rounds of Delphi expert consultation, resulting in 32 recommendation statements covering three parts: management systems, monitoring and assessment, and core strategies. Key updates include: advocating for the establishment of independent neurocritical care units and implementing precise tiered diagnosis and treatment based on the "Five Differences in Critical Care" concept; constructing a "trinity" multimodal brain monitoring system centered on cerebral blood flow, cerebral oxygenation, and brain function, emphasizing routine bedside transcranial Doppler ultrasound, cerebral oximetry, and continuous electroencephalography monitoring; shifting management strategies from mild hypothermia therapy to targeted temperature management, and defining the "446" target management pathway for the supercritical stage; emphasizing the assessment of static and dynamic cerebrovascular autoregulation functions through multimodal methods to achieve individualized optimal mean arterial pressure management; elevating cerebrospinal fluid management goals to the level of "glymphatic system" function maintenance; implementing a multidisciplinary collaborative, whole-process management model focusing on patients' long-term neurological functional outcomes; de-escalation criteria include multidimensional indicators such as recovery of brain structure, restoration of cerebrovascular autoregulation, improvement in cerebrospinal fluid dynamics, and reduction in biomarker levels; and integrating cutting-edge technologies like artificial intelligence into post-critical care management and rehabilitation planning. This consensus systematically integrates the entire process of neurocritical care management, reflecting the modern connotation of goal-oriented, dynamic, and multimodal integration in neurocritical care medicine. It aims to adapt to new trends such as deepening understanding of pathophysiological mechanisms, the integration of medicine and engineering, and the empowerment of artificial intelligence, thereby further advancing the discipline of critical care medicine.

As the core vehicle for preserving and transmitting traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） academic thought and clinical experience， the establishment of a robust quality evaluation system for TCM clinical case reports is a crucial component in the current standardization and modernization of TCM. Based on the practical experience of constructing the China Clinical Cases Library of Traditional Chinese Medicine by the China Association of Chinese Medicine， this study conducted a comprehensive analysis of critical challenges， including insufficient authenticity and unfocused evaluation criteria. It proposed a three-dimensional evaluation framework grounded in the structure-process-outcome logic， encompassing three dimensions of authenticity and standardization， characteristics and advantages， application and translational impact. This framework integrated 12 key evaluation indicators in a systematic manner. The model preserved the academic characteristics of TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment， while aligning with modern scientific research standards， achieving a balance between individualized TCM experience and standardized evaluation. Concurrently， this study provided theoretical foundations and methodological guidance for evaluating the quality of TCM clinical cases， contributing significantly to the inheritance of TCM knowledge， evidence-based practice， and the reform of talent evaluation mechanisms.

Gout is a crystal-associated arthropathy caused by the deposition of monosodium urate crystals and is closely related to purine metabolic disorders and impaired uric acid excretion. It is clinically characterized by hyperuricemia， recurrent joint swelling and pain， and tophus formation. The disease course is divided into three stages： The hyperuricemia stage， acute attack stage， and chronic gouty arthritis stage. Modern medicine has reached a consensus on its pathology， but traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） lacks a systematic stage-specific understanding of gout pathogenesis and its underlying mechanisms， making it difficult to guide precise syndrome differentiation and treatment. By integrating classical TCM theory， clinical practice， and modern medical understanding， and drawing upon descriptions of Bi syndrome caused by endogenous dampness and turbidity in classical texts such as Huangdi Neijing·Ling Shu and Synopsis of the Golden Chamber， our team proposes the pathogenic concept of gout as ''endogenous dampness leading to Bi syndrome'' and the core pathogenesis of ''spleen deficiency with internal retention of dampness-turbidity''. We systematically elucidate the evolution of pathogenesis across different stages and corresponding therapeutic strategies. This study posits that metabolic byproducts such as urate fall under the category of ''endogenous pathogenic dampness-turbidity''. When genetic or dietary factors lead to metabolic abnormalities， it manifests as ''spleen deficiency with impaired transport and transformation''， resulting in ''internal retention of pathogenic dampness-turbidity''. When damp-turbidity stagnates in the blood vessels， serum uric acid levels rise. When it stagnates in the viscera and limbs， monosodium urate crystals deposit in the joints. Triggered by precipitating factors， this leads to gout attacks—the core pathological process of ''endogenous dampness leading to Bi syndrome''. Based on this theory， the stage-specific pathogenic characteristics of gout are proposed： The hyperuricemia stage is characterized by ''spleen deficiency with impaired transport and transformation， internal retention of pathogenic dampness-turbidity''， the acute attack stage is primarily marked by ''dampness-turbidity and static heat obstructing the limbs and joints''， while the chronic stage is defined by ''spleen deficiency with internal retention of pathogenic dampness-turbidity， intermingled with phlegm-stasis binding''. The treatment principle centers on ''strengthening the spleen and draining dampness'' throughout all stages. During the hyperuricemia stage， treatment focuses on ''strengthening the spleen， draining dampness， and eliminating turbidity''. In the acute attack stage， the treatment should "strengthen the spleen， drain dampness， clear heat， eliminate turbidity， alleviate swelling， and relieve pain''. In the chronic stage， the treatments emphasizes to ''strengthen the spleen， drain dampness， transform turbidity， clear heat， resolve phlegm， and activate blood circulation''. This approach has yielded favorable therapeutic outcomes in clinical practice. This theoretical system clarifies the nature of gout as ''spleen deficiency being the root， dampness-turbidity being the secondary manifestation'' and systematically analyzes its pathogenesis evolution process and characteristics. The constructed stage-based treatment protocol has been validated through clinical and basic research， providing systematic theoretical guidance and a practical framework for the precise TCM management of gout， thereby promoting the modernization of TCM pathogenesis theory related to gout.
