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.

Ulcerative colitis(UC)is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized primarily by impaired intestinal mucosal barrier function.Beneficial bacteria in the intestinal flora are crucial for maintaining intestinal function.Therefore,eliminating harmful bacteria,promoting the regeneration of beneficial bacteria,and reconstructing the intestinal mucosal barrier have become key strategies in the treatment of UC.The traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)"Houchang Theory"elucidates the mech-anism of ulcer formation from the perspective of the"Zhimo"(lipid membrane)structure and a-chieves the purpose of treating UC by thickening the"Zhimo"through syndrome differentiation and treatment.This theory is consistent with the modern medical concept of reconstructing the intestinal mucosal barrier.Fecal microbiota transplantation(FMT),as a transformed product of TCM"Jinzhi"(liquid feces),has been proven to have significant efficacy in the treatment of UC.Based on the TCM"Houchang Theory"and from the perspective of the intestinal mucosal barrier,this article explored the mechanism of"Jinzhi"FMT in the treatment of UC and provides new strategies for clinical treatment.

Podophyllotoxin is an aryl naphthalene lignan-like secondary metabolite, which is widely existed in plants of the Podophyllum. It exhibits a broad spectrum of antitumor activity and holds significant clinical value as a medicinal natural product of plant origin. This review discusses podophyllotoxin from three aspects: plant distribution, biosynthesis and pharmacological effects. Distribution of podophyllotoxin in nature: Podophyllotoxin and its analogues are mainly found in 12 genera of three families, which are Berberidaceae, Linaceae and Cupressaceae, respectively. They are mostly distributed in East Asia and North America, especially in China, which is not only the diversity center of the Podophyllum, but also the distribution center. Among all these plants, the genera Dysosma and Sinopodophyllum are the focus of the relevant research. Biosynthesis of podophyllotoxin: In order to take the alleviation of the pressure of podophyllotoxin that is in short supply of natural resources, and to protect its existing resources, the biosynthesis of podophyllotoxin, especially synthetic biology, has gradually become a new direction of current research. Compared with chemical synthesis which has the shortcoming of low synthesis efficiency, high production cost and cumbersome steps, biosynthesis has a variety of advantages. It’s not limited by resources, easy to cultivate on a large scale and has fast production speed, low production cost and simple genetic manipulation, so there is a broader prospect for the exact purpose of biosynthetic development. The biosynthesis of podophyllotoxin is divided into four steps in general, including the synthesis of coniferyl alcohol, the synthesis of matairesinol, the synthesis of deoxypodophyllotoxin and the synthesis of podophyllotoxin. It requires various enzymes catalyzed during the synthesis process, such as pinoresinol-lariciresinol reductase(PLR), secoisolariciresinol dehydrogenase(SDH) and others. At present, by means of synthetic biology, heterologous production of natural drugs in microbial cell factories, the synthesis of the intermediate coniferyl alcohol has been achieved in Escherichia coli with an increased yield of (124.9±5.1)mg·L−1, and the concentration of (-)-pluviatolide was elevated to 137 mg·L−1. In addition, p-coumaric acid in Saccharomyces cerevisiae was obtained to 71.71 mg·L−1, and in a tobacco plant production chassis, highly purified (-)-deoxypodophyllotoxin was increased to 0.71 mg·g−1 (dry weight) after chromatographic separation. Overall, the utilization of biosynthesis can significantly increase the yield of podophyllotoxin and improve the research and production efficiency of anti-tumor drugs greatly, which brings a more effective strategy for the treatment of related diseases. The pharmacological activity of podophyllotoxin: Podophyllotoxin and its analogues have strong cytotoxicity and they exert good inhibitory effects on the proliferation of multifarious tumor cells, viruses and bacteria. So they are widely applied to the clinical treatment of various types of tumors, such as colorectal cancer, lung cancer, cervical cancer, hemangioma, breast cancer, esophageal cancer, etc. The molecular mechanism of its cancer treatment is mainly in the G1, G2/M to block the cell cycle to make drugs work. Meanwhile, podophyllotoxin has relatively significant toxic side effects and drawbacks that can’t be ignored as a drug with superior therapeutic effect on specific diseases, which tends to increase the risk of bone marrow suppression, chromosomal aberrations and so forth. In conclusion, this literature sums up the distribution of podophyll plants in China, making review of the biosynthetic steps, applications, and biological research of podophyllotoxin, and outlines the pharmacological activity of podophyllotoxin. It aims to set the foundation for the reasonable application of podophyllotoxin resources, the efficient synthesis of podophyllotoxin, and the development of Podophyllum drugs which are highly effective and low toxic. At the same time, this paper gives full play to the clinical medicinal value of podophyllotoxin, which has important influence and far-reaching significance in the treatment of malignant diseases, and promotes the modernization of traditional Chinese medicine.

Objective This study investigated the epidemic characteristics and spatio-temporal dynamics of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) in Qingdao City,China. Methods Information was collected on HFRS cases in Qingdao City from 2010 to 2022. Descriptive epidemiologic,seasonal decomposition,spatial autocorrelation,and spatio-temporal cluster analyses were performed. Results A total of 2,220 patients with HFRS were reported over the study period,with an average annual incidence of 1.89/100,000 and a case fatality rate of 2.52%. The male:female ratio was 2.8:1. 75.3% of patients were aged between 16 and 60 years old,75.3% of patients were farmers,and 11.6% had both "three red" and "three pain" symptoms. The HFRS epidemic showed two-peak seasonality:the primary fall-winter peak and the minor spring peak. The HFRS epidemic presented highly spatially heterogeneous,street/township-level hot spots that were mostly distributed in Huangdao,Pingdu,and Jiaozhou. The spatio-temporal cluster analysis revealed three cluster areas in Qingdao City that were located in the south of Huangdao District during the fall-winter peak. Conclusion The distribution of HFRS in Qingdao exhibited periodic,seasonal,and regional characteristics,with high spatial clustering heterogeneity. The typical symptoms of "three red" and"three pain" in patients with HFRS were not obvious.

Objective:To retrospectively analyze the treatment status of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) in newly diagnosed patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in China.Methods:Data of chronic phase (CP) and accelerated phase (AP) CML patients diagnosed from January 2006 to December 2022 from 77 centers, ≥18 years old, and receiving initial imatinib, nilotinib, dasatinib or flumatinib-therapy within 6 months after diagnosis in China with complete data were retrospectively interrogated. The choice of initial TKI, current TKI medications, treatment switch and reasons, treatment responses and outcomes as well as the variables associated with them were analyzed.Results:6 893 patients in CP ( n=6 453, 93.6%) or AP ( n=440, 6.4%) receiving initial imatinib ( n=4 906, 71.2%), nilotinib ( n=1 157, 16.8%), dasatinib ( n=298, 4.3%) or flumatinib ( n=532, 7.2%) -therapy. With the median follow-up of 43 ( IQR 22-75) months, 1 581 (22.9%) patients switched TKI due to resistance ( n=1 055, 15.3%), intolerance ( n=248, 3.6%), pursuit of better efficacy ( n=168, 2.4%), economic or other reasons ( n=110, 1.6%). The frequency of switching TKI in AP patients was significantly-higher than that in CP patients (44.1% vs 21.5%, P<0.001), and more AP patients switched TKI due to resistance than CP patients (75.3% vs 66.1%, P=0.011). Multi-variable analyses showed that male, lower HGB concentration and ELTS intermediate/high-risk cohort were associated with lower cytogenetic and molecular responses rate and poor outcomes in CP patients; higher WBC count and initial the second-generation TKI treatment, the higher response rates; Ph + ACA at diagnosis, poor PFS. However, Sokal intermediate/high-risk cohort was only significantly-associated with lower CCyR and MMR rates and the poor PFS. Lower HGB concentration and larger spleen size were significantly-associated with the lower cytogenetic and molecular response rates in AP patients; initial the second-generation TKI treatment, the higher treatment response rates; lower PLT count, higher blasts and Ph + ACA, poorer TFS; Ph + ACA, poorer OS. Conclusion:At present, the vast majority of newly-diagnosed CML-CP or AP patients could benefit from TKI treatment in the long term with the good treatment responses and survival outcomes.
