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.

Colchicine, a classic anti-inflammatory agent, has been long used for the prevention and treatment of gouty arthritis and familial Mediterranean fever. Given the pivotal role of inflammation in the development and progression of cardiovascular diseases, the clinical value of colchicine in the secondary prevention of cardiovascular diseases has attracted significant attention. Diabetes mellitus (DM) leads to severe and irreversible vascular complications, and cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in patients with DM. However, existing research indicated heterogeneity in the therapeutic efficacy of colchicine among patients with cardiovascular diseases and those with diabetes complicated by cardiovascular conditions. The heterogeneity manifests as differences in efficacy across various disease stages, patient baseline characteristics, specific cardiovascular event types, endpoint definitions, and treatment regimens. The current domestic and international research findings on colchicine in relation to cardiovascular events—both in patients with CVD and in those with diabetes—were reviewed, with the aim of elucidating the underlying causes of this efficacy heterogeneity and providing evidence-based guidance for identifying patients likely to benefit and optimizing individualized treatment strategies in clinical practice.

Objective:To understand the awareness of influenza and influenza vaccine, influenza incidence, influenza vaccination status and intention and related factors in primary and secondary school teachers.Methods:Cross-sectional study design and stratified random sampling method were used to select 5 teachers from each of 51 primary schools and 40 middle schools in a district of Beijing from April 17 to 21, 2024. A questionnaire survey was conducted in the selected teachers with an estimated sample size of 1 040. The survey collected the information about their demographic characteristics, awareness of influenza and influenza vaccine, influenza incidence, influenza vaccination status and intention. Multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the factors related to influenza vaccination status and intention.Results:In the 975 primary and secondary school teachers, the awareness of susceptibility and severity of influenza and the benefits of influenza vaccination were high. In terms of safety of influenza vaccine, 48.00% (468/975) of the teachers believed that adverse reaction would occur after the vaccination. Influenza like illness occurred in 41.13% (401/975) of the teachers during 2023-2024, and in these teachers, 40.15% (161/401) asked for leave from work due to illness, 40.90% (164/401) sought medical care and 32.93% (54/164) were influenza virus positive. In the 975 teachers, 13.95% (136/975) were vaccinated against influenza during 2023-2024 and 34.46% (336/975) were willing to be vaccinated against influenza during 2024-2025. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that being teacher in charge of a class (a OR=1.58, 95% CI: 1.06-2.35), believing that influenza vaccination could effectively prevent influenza (a OR=1.99, 95% CI: 1.05-3.80), believing that teachers' vaccination could improve students' willingness to be vaccinated (a OR=1.98, 95% CI: 1.12-3.50) were the positive factors for teachers' vaccination, and worrying about adverse reactions after the vaccination (a OR=0.52, 95% CI: 0.34-0.80) was the negative factor. Doctors' recommendation (a OR=2.62, 95% CI: 1.41-4.86) and free influenza vaccination (a OR=10.26, 95% CI: 5.17-20.39) were positively correlated with teachers' intention to influenza vaccination. Conclusions:Primary and secondary school teachers in a district of Beijing had high awareness of influenza and influenza vaccine, but their awareness of influenza vaccine safety should be improved. The incidence of influenza-related infection was high in the primary and secondary school teachers. The influenza vaccination rate was low and the willingness to receive influenza vaccination in following year was not strong. For the better prevention and control of influenza in schools, it is necessary to strengthen the health education in primary and secondary school teachers to improve their awareness of influenza vaccine safety and vaccination rate.

Objective To construct an in vitro co-culture model of gastric cancer organoids and cancer-associated fibroblasts(CAFs),and investigate the role of cancer-associated fibroblasts in the proliferation and chemotherapy resistance of gastric cancer organoids.Methods Tumor tissues from 12 gastric cancer patients undergoing surgical treatment in Department of General Surgery of Second Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from February 2023 to March 2024 were collected to construct gastric cancer organoids using 3D culture.HE staining was used to observe the morphology,and immunohistochemical assay was employed to determine the expression of cytokeratin CK7,carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA),and proliferation marker Ki-67.After CAFs derived from the same patient were cultured,observed for their morphology under a light microscope,and detected for the phenotype by flow cytometry,the cells were co-cultured with gastric cancer organoids in a 1:1 ratio.Phase-contrast microscopy was applied to observe the growth of the organoids and analyze the number,average diameter,and total area.Then,organoids cultured alone served as the control group.After the control and co-culture groups were treated with chemotherapy drugs,5-fluorouracil and oxaliplatin,for 48 h,the viability and apoptosis of organoids were assessed with CellTiter-Glo??3D assay and CellEvent? Caspase 3/7 activity,respectively.Results Gastric cancer organoids and CAFs were successfully established from 10 gastric cancer patient-derived samples.The gastric cancer organoids exhibited morphological characteristics consistent with the corresponding primary tumors,and showed positive expression of CK7,CEA,and Ki-67.CAFs displayed typical spindle-shaped morphology and exhibited the phenotypic markers CD326-,CD45-,CD31-,α-SMA+,CD73+,CD90+,and CD105+.Compared to the organoids cultured alone,the organoids co-cultured with CAFs showed more formation of organoids,in larger average diameter,and taking larger total area(P<0.05).After the treatment of 5-fluorouracil and oxaliplatin,the half-maximal inhibitory concentration(IC50)was 10.66 and 3.26 μmol/L,respectively in the control group,while was 46.23 and 91.11 μmol/L in the co-culture group.Additionally,the number of CellEvent? Caspase 3/7 positive apoptotic cells was significantly less in the co-culture group than the control group.Conclusion Compared with individually cultured gastric cancer organoids,the co-culture model of gastric cancer organoids and CAFs better simulates the pro-tumor proliferation and drug resistance effects of in vivo tumor microenvironment.

Objective:
To explore glymphatic impairment in pediatric refractory epilepsy (RE) using multi-parameter magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), assess its relationship with white-matter (WM) abnormalities and clinical indicators, and preliminarily evaluate the performance of multi-parameter MRI in discriminating RE from drug-sensitive epilepsy (DSE).
Materials and Methods:
We retrospectively included 70 patients with DSE (mean age, 9.7 ± 3.5 years; male:female, 37:33) and 26 patients with RE (9.0 ± 2.9 years; male:female, 12:14). The diffusion tensor imaging analysis along the perivascular space (DTI-ALPS) index as well as fractional anisotropy (FA), mean diffusivity (MD), and nodal efficiency values were measured and compared between patients with RE and DSE. With sex and age as covariables, differences in the FA and MD values were analyzed using tract-based spatial statistics, and nodal efficiency was analyzed using a linear model. Pearson’s partial correlation was analyzed. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to evaluate the discrimination performance of the MRI-based machine-learning models through five-fold cross-validation.
Results:
In the RE group, FA decreased and MD increased in comparison with the corresponding values in the DSE group, and these differences mainly involved the callosum, right and left corona radiata, inferior and superior longitudinal fasciculus, and posterior thalamic radiation (threshold-free cluster enhancement, P < 0.05). The RE group also showed reduced nodal efficiency, which mainly involved the limbic system, default mode network, and visual network (false discovery rate, P < 0.05), and significantly lower DTI-ALPS index (F = 2.0, P = 0.049). The DTI-ALPS index was positively correlated with FA (0.25 ≤ r ≤ 0.32) and nodal efficiency (0.22 ≤ r ≤ 0.37), and was negatively correlated with the MD (-0.24 ≤ r≤ -0.34) and seizure frequency (r = -0.47). A machine-learning model combining DTI-ALPS, FA, MD, and nodal efficiency achieved a cross-validated ROC curve area of 0.83 (sensitivity, 78.2%; specificity, 84.8%).
Conclusion
Pediatric patients with RE showed impaired glymphatic function in comparison with patients with DSE, which was correlated with WM abnormalities and seizure frequency. Multi-parameter MRI may be feasible for distinguishing RE from DSE.
