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.

This paper systematically analyzes schistosomiasis transmission risks during the elimination stage and reviews the evolution of the schistosomiasis surveillance system in China from a One Health perspective, with a special emphasis on schistosomiasis surveillance and response practices during the elimination stage from a One Health perspective. These practices include precise screening of human schistosomiasis under low-endemicity conditions, systematic monitoring of schistosomiasis in domestic and wild animals, ecological management of Oncomelania snails, and information-coordinated responses. Nevertheless, the current surveillance and response system for schistosomiasis suffers from challenges of insufficient cross-sectoral coordination and complex external environments, which constrain precise schistosomiasis surveillance and response in China. Therefore, it is urgently necessary to integrate coordination mechanisms, empower the surveillance system with technological innovation, improve capacity building, and actively promote diverse social participation in the One Health framework, so as to consolidate current schistosomiasis control achievements and achieve the target for schistosomiasis elimination across China, which may provide a replicable technical model for global zoonoses control.

Objective To observe the effects of wheat grain moxibustion on the hippocampal ERK/CREB-BDNF/TrkB signaling pathway and neurotransmitters in rats with perimenopausal depressive disorder(PDD);To explore its mechanism in treating PDD.Methods Totally 24 female SD rats were randomly divided into sham-operation group,model group,Western medicine group and wheat grain moxibustion group,with 6 rats in each group.The PDD rat model was established by bilateral ovariectomy and chronic unpredictable mild stress.The wheat grain moxibustion group received moxibustion at the"Zhongwan","Xiawan","Qihai","Guanyuan"acupoints,with a conical moxa cone for intervention,6 cones per acupoint;the Western medicine group was given fluoxetine hydrochloride solution 1.8 mg/kg by gavage,once a day,for consecutive 21 d.Before and after modeling and after intervention,the body mass,sucrose water preference rate and immobility time in the forced swimming test of the rats were recorded;Transmission electron microscopy was used to observe the synaptic structure in hippocampal tissue;ELISA was used to detect the expressions of 5-HT,GABA and Glu in hippocampal tissue;Western blot was used to detect the expressions of ERK,p-ERK,CREB,p-CREB,BDNF and TrkB proteins in hippocampal tissue.Results Compared with the sham-operation group,the body mass and sucrose water preference rate of the model group decreased,and the immobility time in the forced swimming test was prolonged(P<0.01);the number of synaptic vesicles in hippocampus decreased,the thickness of the postsynaptic density decreased,the aggregation of transduction-related proteins decreased,the synaptic cleft increased;the contents of 5-HT and GABA in hippocampal tissue decreased,the content of Glu increased,and the expressions of p-ERK,p-CREB,BDNF and TrkB proteins decreased(P<0.01).Compared with the model group,the body mass and sucrose water preference rate of the rats in Western medicine group and wheat grain moxibustion group increased,and the immobility time in the forced swimming test was shortened(P<0.01);the area of the postsynaptic density in the hippocampus increased,the synaptic cleft reduced,the contents of 5-HT and GABA in hippocampal tissue increased,the content of Glu decreased,and the expressions of p-ERK,p-CREB,BDNF and TrkB proteins increased(P<0.01).Conclusion Wheat grain moxibustion can effectively alleviate depressive-like behavior in PDD rats,and its mechanism may be related to regulating neurotransmitter expressions and mediating the ERK/CREB-BDNF/TrkB signaling pathway,thereby regulating hippocampal neuroplasticity.

Objective To explore the effect of evening primrose oil(EPO)on aortic endothelial damage in rats with polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS),using network pharmacology and in vivo experiments.Methods The potential targets of EPO for improving aortic endothelial injury in PCOS rats were predicted by network pharmacology,and the selected core targets and renin-angiotensin signaling(RAS)pathway were verified by experiments.Fifty-eight female SD rats were divided randomly into a blank group(n=10)and a modeling group(n=48).Rats in the blank group were fed a normal diet and rats in the modeling group received a high-fat diet for 8 weeks.The PCOS model was prepared at week 6 by administration of letrozole(1 mg/(kg·d))for 21 days.Blood was taken from the tail vein after modeling and serum was collected to detect hormone levels.The model rats were then divided randomly into four groups and treated with the corresponding drugs for 6 weeks.Blood,blood vessels,and ovaries were then collected.Tissue morphology was examined by hematoxylin and eosin staining and serum levels of luteinizing hormone(LH),testosterone(T),follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH),endothelin(ET-1),and tumor necrosis factor(TNF-α)were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Serum levels of nitric oxide(NO)were determined by spectrophotometry.Protein expression levels of core targets and RAS pathway-related factors were assessed by western blotting and immunohistochemistry.Results Twenty-five intersection targets of EPO and PCOS were identified by network pharmacological analysis.Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes analysis showed that EPO improved vascular injury in PCOS rats via multiple pathways,including RAS.Serum levels of ET-1,FSH,LH,and T measured by ELISA were significantly decreased after EPO treatment,compared with the model group(P＜0.01).EPO significantly decreased the expression levels of Ang Ⅰ,VEGF-B,AT2R,ET-1,and TNF-α proteins in the aorta(P＜0.01)and significantly increased expression levels of Ang Ⅱ,CD31,and endothelial NO synthase proteins(P＜0.01).Conclusions EPO may ameliorate vascular endothelial injury in PCOS model rats by inhibiting the RAS signaling pathway and by overactivation of the ACE/Ang Ⅱ/AT1 axis.

Objective:To investigate lipid metabolism gene mutations and pathogenicity of hypertriglyceridemia acute pancreatitis (HTG-AP) patients.Methods:Clinical data of 495 HTG-AP patients admitted from June 2018 to June 2020 in the center for severe acute pancreatitis of Eastern Theater General Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Whole-exome sequencing and mutation verification were performed by next-generation sequencing technology and Sanger sequencing. The pathogenicity of gene mutation was analyzed by population mutation ratio, pathogenicity prediction software, conservation scoring software, protein structure prediction, and in vitro experiments. Results:The mutation ratio of lipid metabolism-related genes, namely LPL, APOA5, LMF1, GPIHBP1, and APOC2, were 14.81%, 55.78%, 43.61%, 1.62%, and 0.61%, respectively. Among them, 44 heterozygous mutations in LPL gene were detected including 36 missense mutations, 5 nonsense mutations and 3 frameshift mutations, which were all rarely carried in single patient. Six HTG-AP patients carried the LPL gene heterozygous mutation c.835C>G (p.Leu279Val). The mean level of serum triglyceride at the onset of HTG-AP was 27.4 mmol/L. All of them had a history of recurrent HTG-AP, and most of them had severe acute pancreatitis. The serum LPL concentration and activity were lower than the normal level. The pathogenicity analysis results suggested that the LPL p.Leu279Val was a rare, highly possible pathogenic and highly conserved gene mutation. The in vitro results showed that the LPL p.Leu279Val could significantly reduce the synthesis and secretion ability of LPL as well as its enzymatic activity. Conclusions:The mutation ratio of lipid metabolism-related genes, including LPL, APOA5, LMF1, GPIHBP1, and APOC2, are relatively high in the HTG-AP patients. The LPL p.Leu279Val is a rare and highly possible pathogenic gene mutation, which may lead to recurrent episodes of HTG-AP.

Objective:To analyze the registration status of clinical trials of TCM treatment for functional dyspepsia (FD); To provide references for relevant clinical trial registration and implementation.Methods:The clinical registration trials of TCM for the treatment of FD were retrieved from ChiCTR and clinicaltrials.gov until January 1st, 2025. Excel 2019 was used to extract and analyze study characteristics, including basic information (registration time, country/region, institution, funding source), study features and quality (study type, trial design, phase, number of centers, sample size, interventions, outcome measures, methodological quality, reporting quality), as well as recruitment status and ethical review.Results:A total of 89 registered studies were included. Registration began in 2008 with 3 studies, peaking in 2021 with 14 studies. The studies involved 6 countries, with domestic trials covering 18 provincial-level regions in China and 52 clinical trial institutions. Primary funding sources were national funding and pharmaceutical company support. Most studies were interventional with randomized parallel-controlled designs, commonly using simple randomization. Post-marketing drug trials were the most frequent phase, and single-center trials predominated, involving a total sample size of 19 776 cases. Common interventions included acupuncture/massage and Chinese patent medicines. Frequently used outcome measures were effectiveness rate, symptom evaluation, and quality of life assessment, though issues existed with non-standardized reporting and lack of TCM-specific indicators. Methodological quality needed further improvement.Conclusions:Although the number of registered clinical trials of TCM treatment for FD has increased, the overall quantity remains insufficient. Researchers should emphasize optimization of registration details and study protocols to further enhance registration quality.
