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.

Objective To explore the effect of maternal exercise on blood pressure,cardiac pheno-type and susceptibility to myocardial is chemia/reperfusion(MI/R)injury in adult male offsprings of mice.Methods Pregnant mice were randomly divided into a sedentary group(p-Ctr)and an exercise group(p-EX),each of 12.The exercise group underwent daily 60-minutenon-weight bearing swim-ming from gestational day(GD)1 to 18,6 days a week.Then,their male offsprings at 3 months of age(3M)were selected as the research subjects,namely the Ctr-3M group and the EX-3M group,with 12 mice in each group.The MI/R model was established by ligation of the anterior descending branch of the left coronary artery(LAD)surgery(30 min of ischemia,24 h of reperfusion).Then,the systolic blood pressure(SBP),diastolic blood pressure(DBP),and mean arterial pressure(MAP)were monitored non-invasively via tail artery blood pressure measurement,while the cardiac function was detected by using the small animal ultrasound.Moreover,the cardiac morphology and col-lagen volume fraction(CVF)of myocardium was observed by HE staining and Masson staining,respec-tively.Meanwhile,the cross-sectional area(CSA)of myocardial cells and myocardial infarction area(INF/AAR)was measured using WGA staining and Evans Blue-TTC double staining,accordingly.What's more,the apoptosis index(AI)of myocardial cells and serum cardiac troponin I(cTnI)were de-tected by using TUNEL staining and ELISA,respectively,while the expression levels of Bax and Bcl-2 proteins were determined by using Western blotting.Results 1)From GD11 to GD19,the body weight of females in the p-EX group was always significantly lower than that in the p-Ctr group(GD11,GD13;P<0.05;GD12,GD14~GD19;P<0.01),but there was no significant difference in the litter size and abortion rate(P>0.05).2)There were no significant differences between the EX-3M and Ctr-3M groups in the heart weight(HW),body weight(BW)and heart weight to body weight ratio(HW/BW),SBP,DBP,MAP,myocardial CVF,and CSA of male offsprings(P>0.05).After MI/R surgery,in both p-Ctr and p-EX groups,myocardial transverse striations disappeared and cardiomyocytes were disarranged with degeneration and necrosis.Moreover,CVF of the EX-3M group was significantly lower than the Ctr-3M group after MI/R surgery(P<0.05).3)No significant differenc-es were found between the Ctr-3M and EX-3M groups in the average cardiac ejection fraction(EF),fractional shortening(FS),left ventricle internal diameter in diastole(LVIDd),and left ventricle inter-nal diameter in systole(LVIDs)(P>0.05).However,after the MI/R surgery,the postoperative EF and FS(P<0.01),and LVIDs(P<0.05)in the EX-3M group were significantly higher than the Ctr-3M group,without significant difference in LVIDd(P>0.05).4)After MI/R surgery,the average AI,INF/AAR and serum cTnI level of the EX-3M group were significantly lower than the Ctr-3M group(P<0.01 for all).5)The relative expression level of myocardial Bcl-2 protein after MI/R surgery in the EX-3M group was significantly higher than the Ctr-3M group(P<0.05),while that of myocardial Bax protein(P<0.05)and the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio(P<0.01)were significantly lower than the latter.Conclu-sions Prenatal exercise significantly reduces the susceptibility to myocardial ischemia injury in 3-month-old male mice offspring,improves the contractile function of their heart,and attenuates the degree of cardiomyocyte apoptosis and necrosis,exerting a cardioprotective effect in MI/R injury.

This study was aimed at establishing a method of ultra-fast quantitative PCR for Brucella detection.We used an exogenous recombinant plasmid as the internal reference and targeted the T4SS secretion system,an important Brucella viru-lence factor,to design specific primers and probes.The sensitivity,specificity,and repeatability of this method were evaluated,and a standard curve was constructed.The coincidence rate of detection findings with this method versus quantitative PCR was determined.This method markedly decreased the detection time to only 10 minutes.The standard curve demonstrated a good linear relationship(Y=-3.410 7x+38.357,R2=0.998 5)with a low minimum detection limit of 10 copies/μL.The method exhibited good specificity and did not specifically amplify several common clinical bacteria other than Brucella.The de-tection of three concentrations of positive plasmids yielded coefficients of variation(CVs)of 0.20%to 0.91%,thus demonstra-ting the method's excellent repeatability.Furthermore,140 clinical samples were analyzed concurrently with the fluorescence PCR method,which yielded a 100%compliance rate and consistent results.Our findings indicated that the Brucella ultra-fast quantitative PCR was ultrafast;had high sensitivity,high specificity,and good specificity;and can be used for the clinical de-tection of Brucella and emergency investigation of epidemics.Therefore,this method is valuable for the early diagnosis of Bru-cella.
