With the widespread adoption of low-dose CT screening and the extensive application of high-resolution CT, the detection rate of sub-centimeter lung nodules has significantly increased. How to scientifically manage these nodules while avoiding overtreatment and diagnostic delays has become an important clinical issue. Among them, lung nodules with a consolidation tumor ratio less than 0.25, dominated by ground-glass shadows, are particularly worthy of attention. The therapeutic challenge for this group is how to achieve precise and complete resection of nodules during surgery while maximizing the preservation of the patient's lung function. The "watershed topography map" is a new technology based on big data and artificial intelligence algorithms. This method uses Dicom data from conventional dose CT scans, combined with microscopic (22-24 levels) capillary network anatomical watershed features, to generate high-precision simulated natural segmentation planes of lung sub-segments through specific textures and forms. This technology forms fluorescent watershed boundaries on the lung surface, which highly fit the actual lung anatomical structure. By analyzing the adjacent relationship between the nodule and the watershed boundary, real-time, visually accurate positioning of the nodule can be achieved. This innovative technology provides a new solution for the intraoperative positioning and resection of lung nodules. This consensus was led by four major domestic societies, jointly with expert teams in related fields, oriented to clinical practical needs, referring to domestic and foreign guidelines and consensus, and finally formed after multiple rounds of consultation, discussion, and voting. The main content covers the theoretical basis of the "watershed topography map" technology, indications, operation procedures, surgical planning details, and postoperative evaluation standards, aiming to provide scientific guidance and exploration directions for clinical peers who are currently or plan to carry out lung nodule resection using the fluorescent microscope watershed analysis method.

Objective: To explore the therapeutic effects of different surgical methods for temporomandibular joint disc reduction and anchoring surgery, providing reference for optimizing this surgical procedure. Method: The study was approved by the hospital ethics committee. 173 patients (195 joints) who underwent temporomandibular joint disc repositioning and anchoring surgery were selected for retrospective analysis. Patients were categorized into groups A (traditional preauricular incision-scalpel/tissue scissors anterior attachment release), 35 patients (40 joints), B (traditional preauricular incision-plasma bipolar radiofrequency electrode anterior attachment release), 42 patients (46 joints), C (revised tragus incision - scalpel/tissue scissors anterior attachment release), 50 patients (58 joints), and D (revised tragus incision-plasma bipolar radiofrequency electrode anterior attachment release), 46 patients (51 joints). After a 6-month postoperative follow-up, the differences in maximum mouth opening (MMO), visual analogue scale (VAS), effective rate of joint disc reduction, incidence of preauricular numbness, obvious scars among patients in each group at 1, 3, and 6 months were compared postoperatively. Results: After surgery, the MMO of all four groups of patients initially shrunk and then gradually increased compared to before surgery. At the 1-month follow-up after surgery, the plasma bipolar radiofrequency release (B+D) group had a smaller impact on the patient’s MMO compared to the surgical knife/tissue scissors release (A+C) group (P < 0.05). Postoperative VAS scores for all four groups showed a gradual decrease from pre-operative levels, with the (B+D) group scoring significantly lower in the first month post-surgery compared to the (A+C) group (P < 0.05). Six months post-surgery, the rate of joint disc reduction of the four groups were higher than 95%, with no significant differences observed between the groups (P > 0.05). Patients in the revised tragus incision (C+D) group experienced a lower rate of preauricular numbness compared to those in the traditional preauricular incision (A+B) group (4.59% vs. 12.79%, P < 0.05), The incidence of obvious scars in the (C+D) group was significantly lower than that in the (A+B) group (3.67% vs. 23.26%, P < 0.05). Conclusion The revised tragus incision is superior to traditional preauricular incision in terms of protecting the auriculotemporal nerve and the scars were more inconspicuous. Further, the plasma bipolar radiofrequency electrode is superior to the scalpel/tissue scissors in terms of mouth opening recovery and pain control. For temporomandibular joint disc reduction and anchoring surgery, a modified tragus incision combined with plasma bipolar radiofrequency electrode to release the anterior attachment of the joint disc can be recommended as a surgical option.

Objectives:To systematically evaluate the clinical efficacies of unilateral biportal endoscopic lumbar interbody fusion(ULIF)and minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion(MIS-TLIF)in the treatment of lumbar degenerative diseases(LDD).Methods:Clinical controlled studies on ULIF and MIS-TLIF in the treatment of LDD were systematically retrieved from Chinese and English databases,including CNKI,VIP,WanFang,SinoMed,PubMed,Cochrane Library,Embase,and Web of Science.The retrieval time limit was from the establishment of the database to September 2023.The quality of the included studies was evaluated by the Newcastle-Ottawa scale(NOS).The indexes of operation time,surgical bleeding,hospitalization time,visual analog scale(VAS),Oswestry disability index(ODI),incidence of complications,disc height,and fusion rate were extracted,and Meta-analysis was performed by RevMan 5.4.1 software.Results:A total of 11 studies were included,all of which were cohort studies,and all of which were evaluated as medium-high quality by NOS.There were 800 patients,including 380 in the ULIF group and 420 in the MIS-TLIF group.The results of Meta analysis showed that the hospitalization time[WMD=-0.75,95％CI(-1.33,-0.17)],low back pain VAS(1-3 months after operation)[MD=-0.43,95％CI(-0.70,-0.15)],low back pain VAS(final follow-up＞l year)[MD=-0.09,95％CI(-0.18,-0.00)],ODI(1-3 months after operation)[MD=-1.37,95％CI(-2.46,-0.28)],and intraoperative bleeding[MD=-78.72,95％CI(-113.20,-44.23)]in the ULIF group were better than those in the MIS-TLIF group.The operation time[MD=30.28,95％CI(13.86,46.71)]in the MIS-TLIF group was better than that in the ULIF group.There were no significant differences in leg pain VAS(1-3 months after operation)[MD=-0.12,95％CI(-0.30,0.06)],leg pain VAS(final follow-up＞1 year)[MD=-0.04,95％CI(-0.15,0.07)],ODI(final follow-up＞1 year)[MD=-0.46,95％CI(-1.02,0.11)],lumbar lordosis angle[MD=0.39,95％CI(-1.12,1.90)],disc height[MD=0.03,95％CI(-0.24,0.30)],fusion rate[MD=0.97,95％CI(0.92,1.03)]and complication rate[MD=0.82,95％CI(0.45,1.48)].Conclusions:Compared with MIS-TLIF,ULIF has advantages in improving low back pain symptoms and early recovery of function,reducing intraoperative blood loss,shortening hospital stay,which is less in surgical trauma and faster in recovery.There is no significant difference in long-term efficacy,complications,and fusion rate between the two methods.

Objective To investigate the potential of immune-inflammatory markers and the characteristics of magnetically controlled capsule endoscopy in distinguishing gastric adenocarcinoma from precancerous lesions,as well as to develop and validate a risk prediction model.Methods Retrospective analysis was conducted on medical records of 578 patients who underwent magnetic controlled capsule endoscopy at our hospital between January 2021 and December 2023.Following the principle of Pareto's law(80/20 rule),they were randomly divided into a training set(462 cases)and a validation set(116 cases).Magnetic controlled capsule endoscopy and blood cell tests were performed,with pathological diagnosis results serving as the"gold standard",to classify patients into groups of gastric adenocarcinoma and precancerous lesions.The magnetic controlled capsule endoscopic features,neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio(NLR),platelet-lymphocyte ratio(PLR)in patients with gastric adenocarcinoma and precancerous lesions were compared to develop and validate a risk diagnostic model for gastric adenocarcinoma.Results Among the 462 patients who underwent magnetic controlled capsule endoscopy,gastric adenocarcinoma was diagnosed in 76 cases through pathological examination,accounting for 16.45%(76/462),while precancerous lesions were observed in 386 cases,accounting for 83.55%(386/462).In the validation set of 116 patients who underwent gastric endoscopy,there were 22 cases of gastric adenocarcinoma,representing an incidence rate of 18.97%(22/116),and a total of 94 cases with precancerous lesions,accounting for an incidence rate of 81.03%(94/116).No statistically significant differences(P＞0.05)were found between the two groups regarding lesion size,border appearance,mucus presence or lesion morphology.However,compared to the precancerous lesion group,the proportion of whitish coloration as well as irregular surface microstructure and grid-like microvessels was significantly higher in the gastric adenocarcinoma group(P＜0.05).Moreover,both NLR and PLR values were significantly higher in the gastric adenocarcinoma group compared to those in the precancerous lesion group(P＜0.05).Irregular surface microstructure(OR=2.213,95%CI:1.288～3.801),irregular grid-like microvessels(OR=2.489,95%CI:1.458～4.249),NLR(OR=2.369,95%CI:1.389～4.046),and PLR(OR=3.016,95%CI:1.767～5.148)were identified as risk factors for gastric adenocarcinoma(P＜0.05).The sensitivity of the risk model for diagnosing gastric adenocarci-noma in the training set was 0.800(95%CI:0.716～0.891),with a specificity of 0.783(95%CI:0.694～0.851)and an area under the curve of 0.858(95%CI:0.787～0.931).In the validation set,the sensitivity for diagnosing gastric adenocarcinoma was 0.861(95%CI:0.771～0.945),with a specificity of 0.769(95%CI:0.683～0.841)and an area under the curve of 0.844(95%CI:0.765～0.923).Conclusion The surface microstructure,microvas-cular morphology,NLR,and PLR of gastric lesions are correlated with the occurrence of gastric adenocarcinoma.Developing a risk diagnostic model facilitates early identification and diagnosis of gastric adenocarcinoma.

Objective To investigate the neurodevelopmental characteristics of children with autism spectrum disorder(ASD),analyze the correlation between neurodevelopmental indicators and cerebral blood flow(CBF),and explore the potential mechanisms of neurodevelopment in ASD children.Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 145 children aged 2-6 years with newly-diagnosed ASD.Scores from the Gesell Developmental Diagnosis Scale and the Autism Behavior Checklist(ABC)and CBF results were collected to compare gender differences in the development of children with ASD and analyze the correlation between CBF and neurodevelopmental indicators.Results Fine motor and personal-social development quotient in boys with ASD were lower than those in girls with ASD(P<0.05).Gross motor development quotient in ASD children was negatively correlated with CBF in the left frontal lobe(r=-0.200,P=0.016),right frontal lobe(r=-0.279,P=0.001),left parietal lobe(r=-0.208,P=0.012),and right parietal lobe(r=-0.187,P=0.025).The total ABC score was positively correlated with CBF in the left amygdala(r=0.295,P<0.001).Conclusions Early intervention training should pay attention to gender and developmental structural characteristics for precise intervention in ASD children.CBF has the potential to become a biological marker for assessing the severity of ASD.

The DNA characterization of Cannabis sativa L.has been one of the key directions of anti-drug research at home and abroad.Previous research mainly focused on the identification of cannabis-species and gender differentiation,and have constructed a number of corresponding composite amplification systems.With the rapid development of high-throughput sequencing technology,the whole genome of C.sativa and the sequences of key enzyme genes for its major physicochemical components have been sequenced successively,and intra-species differentiation studies of C.sativa based on specific molecular markers have gradually emerged.However,due to the high variability of cannabis subspecies-and variety-specific molecular markers,relevant foreign studies failed to provide ideal molecular marker support for the identification of intra-specific distinctions of Cannabis sativa in China.Based on this,this paper comprehensively analyzes the current situation and shortcomings of domestic and international research on intra-specific differentiation of C.sativa,and combines the previous research results of this group to elaborate on how to use high-throughput sequencing technology to solve the problem of the lack of intra-specific molecular markers of C.sativa in China.

Objective By analyzing the characteristics of hidden poisoning homicide cases,provide scientific references for grass-roots forensic examination and toxicological screening and provide direction for the efficient discovery of hidden or missed cases of poisoning homicide in non-natural death cases.Methods Poisoning incidents in Hunan Province from 2018 to 2023 were retrospectively analyzed and compiled using Origin and EXCEL software.Results There were a total of 149 poisoning homicide cases,with 15 occurring in urban areas(accounting for 10.1%)and 134 in rural areas(accounting for 89.9%).Out of the 46 cases that led to casualties,rodenticide poisoning was the most prevalent(accounting for 52.2%),followed by cyanide(4.3%),nitrite(4.3%),thallium(2.2%),and other forms of poisoning.These incidents were primarily concentrated in urban areas.The main way of poisoning was to mix poisons into drinking water(accounting for 28.3%),meals(26.1%),and dark or heavy seasoning(8.7%).There was no significant disparity in the gender distribution of suspects,although the number of male victims was notably higher than that of female victims.The suspects were predominantly between the ages of 19 and 45,while the victims were mostly between the ages of 46 and 60.Among the 103 cases that did not result in injury or death,99%occurred in rural areas,with more than 95%of the involved poisons included pungent pesticides or herbicides,while rodenticides accounted for the least(1.9%).Conclusion There are obvious urban-rural differences in the case occurrence areas and types of involved poisons in poisoning homicide cases.Therefore,it is imperative to focus on both urban and rural areas during the investigation and evidence collection process in suspected poisoning cases.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective Corruption is the most common cadaver phenomenon in forensic practice and an important basis for inferring time of death(PMI),but the definition of corruption degree and the construction of model inference models have always been difficult in the practice of forensic science.Methods In this study,the late postmortem phenomena were observed.Meanwhile,the microbial flora structure of gut and gravesoil and the nature of gravesoil were detected,for analyzing the changes before and after the key moment of abdominal rupture which naturally happened during the cadaver decay.Results The results found that from the macroscopic and microscopic levels,there were significant differences in cadaver decay,including microbial flora structure and gravesoil properties before and after the key moment of the natural abdominal rupture during cadaver decay.The phenomena are highly observable and can be accurately judged by forensic examinations,as well as related means in the field of biology and physiochemistry.In this study,this critical event was called Rupture Point.Conclusion The Rupture Point can be used as an important node for the assessment of cadaver decay degree in the practice of forensic medicine.It can be utilized for a cut-off point as well when constructing PMI inference models based on microbial flora structure changes.The accuracy of PMI inference models can be improved when the models were constructed in segments.

Objective To evaluate the value of miniprobe endoscopic ultrasound(EUS)in guiding endoscopic treatment of small-diameter(maximum diameter less than 1 cm)and low-grade(G1 grade)rectum neuroendocrine neoplasm(R-NEN),and to provide evidence and clues for its clinical application and further research.Methods The clinical data of 85 cases of low-grade(G1 grade)R-NEN with a maximum diameter of less than 1 cm who underwent endoscopic treatment in our center from January 2014 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into the EUS group(37 cases)and control group(48 cases)according to whether EUS was performed before endoscopic treatment.The positive rate of incision margin,the incidence of complications,the recurrence rate,the hospital stay,the cost of hospitalization and endoscopic therapy were compared between the two groups.Results The positive rate of incision margin in the EUS group was significantly lower than that in control group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications,tumor recurrence rate,hospital stay or hospital costs between the two groups(P>0.05).There was statistically significant difference in the endoscopic therapy between the two groups(P<0.05).Conclusion Evaluating the lesion depth of small-diameter and low-grade(G1 grade)R-NEN before surgery by miniprobe EUS and selecting endoscopic surgery according to its results of can significantly reduce the residual risk of resection margin tumors.
