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 systematically evaluate the risk prediction models for anastomotic leakage (AL) in patients with esophageal cancer after surgery. Methods A computer-based search of PubMed, EMbase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Chinese Medical Journal Full-text Database, VIP, Wanfang, SinoMed and CNKI was conducted to collect studies on postoperative AL risk prediction model for esophageal cancer from their inception to October 1st, 2023. PROBAST tool was employed to evaluate the bias risk and applicability of the model, and Stata 15 software was utilized for meta-analysis. Results A total of 19 literatures were included covering 25 AL risk prediction models and 7373 patients. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was 0.670-0.960. Among them, 23 prediction models had a good prediction performance (AUC>0.7); 13 models were tested for calibration of the model; 1 model was externally validated, and 10 models were internally validated. Meta-analysis showed that hypoproteinemia (OR=9.362), postoperative pulmonary complications (OR=7.427), poor incision healing (OR=5.330), anastomosis type (OR=2.965), preoperative history of thoracoabdominal surgery (OR=3.181), preoperative diabetes mellitus (OR=2.445), preoperative cardiovascular disease (OR=3.260), preoperative neoadjuvant therapy (OR=2.977), preoperative respiratory disease (OR=4.744), surgery method (OR=4.312), American Society of Anesthesiologists score (OR=2.424) were predictors for AL after esophageal cancer surgery. Conclusion At present, the prediction model of AL risk in patients with esophageal cancer after surgery is in the development stage, and the overall research quality needs to be improved.

AIM: To explore the relationship between hyperopia reserve and ocular biometric parameters in 4-14 year-old Uyghur students from Hotan County, Xinjiang, and to provide scientific evidence for myopia prevention.METHODS: From September 1 to October 31, 2023, a stratified random cluster sampling method was used to select 3 264 students(3 264 eyes)from 6 schools in Hotan County. Participants underwent uncorrected distance visual acuity testing, cycloplegic refraction, and ocular biometric measurements. The correlation between spherical equivalent(SE)and ocular biometric parameters was analyzed by multiple linear regression.RESULTS: A total of 1 998 non-myopic students(1 998 eyes)were included in the study, with 1 354 students(67.77%)showing insufficient hyperopia reserve. The detection rate of insufficient hyperopia reserve decreased with age, from 94.12% at age 4 to 18.13% at age 14(P<0.001). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that in the group with sufficient hyperopia reserve, age, gender, uncorrected distance visual acuity, axial length(AL), and keratometry(K)explained 66.5% of the variance in SE; while in the group with insufficient hyperopia reserve, these factors explained only 28.0% of the SE variance.CONCLUSION: In non-myopic Uyghur students aged 4-14 in Hotan County, Xinjiang, the detection rate of insufficient hyperopia reserve was 67.77%. In the group with insufficient hyperopia reserve, age, gender, AL, and K explained only a small portion of the SE variance, suggesting that the refractive status of this population may be influenced by more complex factors.

ObjectiveTo validate the efficacy of Yunpi Huatan Tongqiao prescription (YHTP) in down-regulating glycolysis to modulate microglia phenotype and improve inflammation and cognitive memory deficits in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) mice. MethodForty-eight male Balb/C mice were randomly divided into a normal group, a model group, a montelukast sodium group (30 mg·kg-1), and low, medium, and high dose groups of YHTP (8.28, 16.56, and 33.12 g·kg-1), with 8 mice in each group. All groups, except the normal group, received intraperitoneal injections of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and underwent chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) modeling for 4 weeks. Subsequently, the mice were treated with medications for 4 weeks and then sampled. Animal behavioral tests assessed memory impairment due to hypoxia. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR) was used to measure mRNA expression levels of M1-associated inflammatory factors interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and markers such as T lymphocyte activation antigen (CD86) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), as well as M2-associated inflammatory factors interleukin-10 (IL-10), transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), and the marker mannose receptor (CD206) in hippocampal tissue. Western blot was employed to detect differences in the expression of M1 and M2 microglia phenotypic markers (CD86, CD206) and glycolysis-related proteins glucose transporter type 1 (GLUT1), hexokinase 2 (HK2), phosphofructokinase (PFKM), pyruvate kinase 2 (PKM2), and monocarboxylic acid transporter 1 (MCT1). ResultBehavioral tests showed that compared to the results in the normal group, the Y-maze autonomous alternation rate was significantly reduced in the model group (P<0.01). The latency time for the target hole in the Barnes' maze during the training period (days 2, 3, 4) and testing period (days 5, 12) was significantly increased (P<0.05, P<0.01). M1 glial cell markers CD86 and iNOS, as well as inflammatory factors IL-1β and TNF-α mRNA, were significantly elevated (P<0.01). In contrast, the mRNA expression of M2 glial cell markers IL-10, CD206, and TGF-β was significantly reduced (P<0.01). The protein expression of glycolytic proteins HK2, PFKM, PKM2, MCT1, and the M1 marker CD86 was significantly increased (P<0.05, P<0.01), while M2 marker CD206 protein expression was significantly decreased (P<0.01). Compared to the results in the model group, the Y-maze autonomous alternation rate was significantly increased in the medium and high dose groups of YHTP (P<0.05, P<0.01). The latency time for the target hole during the training (day 4) and testing periods (days 5, 12) was significantly reduced (P<0.01). Real-time PCR results indicated that mRNA expression levels of M1-related pro-inflammatory factors in the hippocampal tissue were significantly reduced in the low, medium, and high dose groups of YHTP (P<0.01), while M2-related inflammatory factors' mRNA expression was significantly increased (P<0.01). Western blot results showed that in the medium and high dose groups of YHTP, the expression of the M1 marker CD86 in the hippocampus was reduced, whereas the expression of the M2 marker CD206 was significantly increased (P<0.01), with a significant decrease in the expression of glycolysis-related proteins (P<0.01). ConclusionYHTP can improve inflammation and cognitive impairment induced by hypoxia in OSA model mice. This is achieved by downregulating glycolysis in brain microglia, inhibiting M1 activation, reducing pro-inflammatory factor release, and promoting M2 activation, thereby exerting a therapeutic effect on inflammation and cognitive impairment caused by OSA.

The adulteration and counterfeiting of herbal ingredients in medicinal and food homology (MFH) have a serious impact on the quality of herbal materials, thereby endangering human health. Compared to pharmaceutical drugs, health products derived from traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) are more easily accessible and closely integrated into consumers' daily life. However, the authentication of the authenticity of TCM ingredients in MFH has not received sufficient attention. The lack of clear standards emphasizes the necessity of conducting systematic research in this area. This study utilized DNA barcoding technology, combining ITS2,
