Non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)is one of the most common and deadly malignant tumors worldwide,with surgical resection being the primary treatment for early-stage NSCLC.Tumor spread through air spaces(STAS)is a novel pattern of tumor dissemination into the air spaces in the lung.Its occurrence after sublobar resection is closely associated with recurrence and distant metastasis,making its con-sideration a vital factor in surgical strategy selection and prognostic evaluation.Patients with STAS-positive status exhibit significantly higher postoperative recurrence rates than do STAS-negative patients,with molecular mechanisms involving tumor microenvironment remodeling,specific genetic mutations,and epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT).Imaging techniques including computed tomography(CT)and positron emission tomography/CT have shown potential for preoperative STAS prediction,although their accuracy and practicality require improvement.This paper reviews the definition,pathological characteristics,and related mechanisms of STAS,with a focus on surgical ap-proach selection for STAS-positive patients and its role in cancer recurrence after sublobar resection of early-stage NSCLC.Future research directions include optimization of preoperative diagnostic methods for STAS,exploration of molecular targeted therapies,and development of imaging-based precision prediction models.

Objective To explore the predictive effect of empowerment and theory of planned behavior(TPB)on the four core behaviors of type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)self-management,and analyze the influence path of TPB model and behavioral intention on the four core behaviors.Methods A total of 500 T2DM patients who were hospitalized in the Endocrinology Department of three tertiary general hospitals in different provinces from December 2022 to May 2023 were selected for investigation.Hierarchical multiple regression analysis was used to explore the predictive effects of empowerment and TPB models on self-management behaviors.Bootstrap method was used to analyze the influence path of TPB model and behavior intention on self-management behaviors.Results Empowerment had a predictive effect on self-management behavior,which was improved after the addition of TPB,with medication R2=0.194,blood glucose monitoring R2=0.308,regular diet R2=0.337 and regular exercise R2=0.343,respectively.Mediation effect analyses revealed that attitude,subjective norm,and perceived behavioral control were observed to predict behavior intention across the four behaviors,and the three except through the behavior intention indirectly affect behavior,can also directly affect the behavior.Conclusions Empowerment can predict self-management behavior,and adding TPB to this can improve the prediction effect.Attitude,subjective norms and perceived control can indirectly or directly affect self-management behavior through behavioral intention.

Objective: To compare the efficacy and side effects of patient-controlled intravenous morphine with epidural single bolus morphine in postoperative pain relief. Method: Sixty patients undergoing gynecological procedures under epidural anesthesia were randomly assigned to epidural morphine(EPI)group or patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) group. In the EPI group,2 mg of morphine was injected into epidural space at the end of operation. In PCIA group, 1 mg of morphine as a demand dose would be injected intravenously by the patient through a patientcontrolled analgesic delivery system until the pain relieved. The patients were followed up at 4, 8, 12, 24 h after operation,and the degree of pain,sedation, nausea and vomiting were assessed. Result: The total dosage of morphine was higher in the PCIA group(19.08?5.0 mg)than that in the EPI group(2mg,P
