Lung cancer constitutes the most prevalent and lethal malignant tumor in China. Approximately 85% of lung cancer diagnoses correspond to the non-small cell histological subtype [non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)]. Despite surgery being the mainstay for early-stage disease, postoperative recurrence remains high and adjuvant chemotherapy offers limited benefit. In recent years, targeted therapy has demonstrated substantial advantages in driver mutation-positive NSCLC. To this end, the Lung Cancer Medical Education Committee of the Chinese Medical Education Association developed guidelines based on a systematic review of evidence through November 2025, using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluations (GRADE) approach and a modified Delphi method. Focusing on epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), and addressing ROS proto-oncogene 1 (ROS1), B-Raf proto-oncogene serine/threonine kinase (BRAF) V600E mutation, and mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (MET) exon 14 (METex14) skipping, the guideline covers molecular testing, neoadjuvant/adjuvant therapy, perioperative strategies, minimal residual disease monitoring, and postoperative surveillance. It defines testing requirements, specifies stage-directed and subtype-specific treatments, and standardizes minimal residual disease monitoring. These recommendations emphasize precision and feasibility to improve survival and quality of life.

BACKGROUND:In recent years,artificial intelligence has gradually emerged and has been applied in various fields such as spinal cord nerve injury and repair,which has a positive impact on clinical treatment. OBJECTIVE:To study the application progress of artificial intelligence in the diagnosis,treatment,and rehabilitation of spinal cord nerve injury and repair,clarify the research hotspots and shortcomings in this field,and provide suggestions for future research work. METHODS:Relevant literature on artificial intelligence in the field of spinal cord nerve injury and repair was retrieved on the Web of Science core collection database until 2023.CiteSpace 6.1.R6 and VOSviewer 1.6.19 software was used to perform general literature analysis,co-citation of literature,co-citation of journals,double image overlay of journals,keyword clustering,and other visual analysis on the literature data. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)A total of 1 713 articles were selected,and the annual publication volume in this field showed a fluctuating upward trend,with the United States taking the lead,and Kadone and Hideki being the authors with the highest publication volume.ARCH PHYS MED REHAB was the journal with the highest number of citations.(2)Keyword co-occurrence and cluster analysis showed that after removing keywords similar to the search terms,the main keywords were divided into three main clusters:Exoskeleton and exercise rehabilitation(the largest core hotspot);machine learning and neural plasticity;robotics and rehabilitation training.(3)Keyword burst analysis showed that deep learning and artificial intelligence had become burst terms in the past five years.(4)The results of in-depth analysis of co cited and highly cited literature showed that the hotspots of artificial intelligence in the field of spinal cord nerve injury and repair were mainly focused on powered exoskeletons,gaits,electrical nerve stimulation,intracortical brain-computer interface(IBCI),robots,and polymer biomaterials,and neural stem cell.(5)The research on artificial intelligence in the field of spinal cord nerve injury and repair has shown an upward trend in recent years.The focus of this field had gradually shifted from single treatment methods such as exoskeletons and electrical stimulation to intelligent,precise,and personalized directions.(6)There were some limitations in this field,such as the consequences of missing or imbalanced data,low data accuracy and reproducibility,and ethical issues(such as privacy,research transparency,and clinical reliability).Future research should address the issue of data collection,requiring large sample,high-quality clinical datasets to establish effective artificial intelligence models.At the same time,the research on genomics and other mechanisms in this field is very weak.In the future,various machine learning technologies such as brain chips can be used,and gene editing therapy,single-cell spatial transcriptome and other methods can be used to study the basic mechanisms of regeneration-related gene upregulation and axon growth structural protein production.

Objective To explore the effectiveness and safety of hypofractionated radiotherapy(HFRT)combined with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE)for metachronous hepatic oligometastasis from nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC).Methods The clinical data of patients with metachronous hepatic oligometastasis from NPC,who received HFRT combined with TACE treatment at the Sichuan Provincial Cancer Hospital of China from January 2012 to October 2022,were retrospectively analyzed.The 3-year and 5-year overall survival(OS),progression-free survival(PFS),local recurrence-free survival(LRFS),no extrahepatic distant metastasis survival(EMFS),and treatment-related adverse reactions were analyzed.Results A total of 55 patients were enrolled in this study,including 36 males and 19 females,the median age at the time of occurring metachronous hepatic oligometastasis was 44(27-75)years.The 3-year and 5-year OS,PFS,LRFS,EMFS were 67.8％and 40.0％,55.8％and 30.0％,72.7％and 56.5％,63.6％and 56.5％,respectively.The subgroup analysis indicated that the treatment course of TACE ≥3 cycles could significantly improve the PFS of patients with oligometastasis.HFRT combined with TACE treatment was well tolerated by all patients,and the incidence of Grade Ⅲ-Ⅳadverse reactions was quite low.Conclusion For the treatment of metachronous hepatic oligometastasis from NPC,HFRT combined with TACE is clinically effective,besides,the patients can well tolerate the therapeutic scheme.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics of sepsis-induced myocardial injury and microbial distribution.Methods:It was a retrospective observational study conducted from Jan 2023 to Dec 2023 in the Department of Emergency Intensive Care Medicine, Changshu Hospital Affiliated to Soochow University. Patients meeting the sepsis 3.0 criteria were included, excluding those with underlying cardiovascular diseases or incomplete data. Patients were categorized into myocardial injury (SIMI) and non-myocardial injury (Non-SIMI) groups based on troponin levels. General patient information, laboratory results, microbial findings, and prognostic indicators were collected. Differences in clinical parameters between the two groups were compared. Factors showing statistical differences in univariate analysis were further analyzed using multivariable logistic regression to identify risk factors for SIMI. Conduct propensity score matching among Pulmonary infection patients who underwent bronchoalveolar lavage high-throughput sequencing to compare microbial distribution between groups. Bracken was used to estimate species-level abundance from Kraken2 results, and α and β diversity analyses were conducted on the metagenomic samples.Results:A total of 179 patients were included in the study, with 98 (54.4%) in the Non-SIMI group and 81 (45.5%) in the SIMI group. There were 69 deaths overall (38.5%), with 23 (23.7%) in the Non-SIMI group and 46 (56.8%) in the SIMI group (χ 2=20.347, P<0.01). The 28-day survival curve indicated survival rates in the SIMI group were significantly lower compared to the Non-SIMI group (Log Rank χ 2=21.270, P<0.01). Univariate analysis revealed that fungal infection rate ( P=0.007), C-reactive protein ( P=0.021), procalcitonin, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, alanine transaminase, and lactate levels were higher in the SIMI group compared to the Non-SIMI group (all P<0.01), prothrombin time was prolonger ( P<0.01) and APACHEⅡ scores were higher ( P<0.01), while serum albumin, base excess, and platelet levels were lower (all P<0.01). Multivariable logistic regression analysis indicated that fungal infection ( OR=3.441, P=0.015) was a risk factor for SIMI, whereas base excess and platelets were protective factors ( OR=0.845, 0.988, both P<0.01). Comparison of bronchoalveolar lavage high-throughput sequencing results in the pulmonary infection subgroup showed the relative abundance of Haemophilus paraininfluenzae in Non-SIMI group was higher than SIMI group among the top 20 species ( P=0.013). There were no statistically significant differences in microbial αand β-diversity between the two groups. Conclusions:The incidence of SIMI is relatively highamong sepsis patients and it affects their prognosis. Risk factors for SIMI include fungal infection, decreased platelet count, and reduced base excess levels. Among patients with pulmonary infections, there is a lower risk of SIMI associated with Haemophilus influenzae infection.

Objective To analyze the cellular and histopathological characteristics of underdiagnosed thyroid nodules of Chinese thyroid imaging reporting and data system(C-TIRADS) categories 3 and 4a,thus improving the understanding of these lesions. Methods The data of ultrasound and fine needle aspiration cytology were collected from 683 nodules diagnosed based on pathological evidence in 549 patients undergoing thyroid surgery.The cellular and histopathological characteristics of C-TIRADS 3 and 4a nodules were analyzed. Results Two hundred and sixty-eight nodules were classified as C-TIRADS category 3,including 236 benign nodules,12 low-risk ones,and 20 (7.46%) malignant ones.Two hundred and twenty-one nodules were classified as C-TIRADS category 4a,including 133 benign nodules,7 low-risk ones,and 81 (36.65%) malignant ones.The malignancy rates differed between C-TIRADS 3 and 4a nodules (χ²=58.93,P<0.001),and both were higher than the recommended malignancy rate in the guidelines for malignancy risk stratification of thyroid nodules (C-TIRADS) (both P<0.001).According to the pathological evidence,the underdiagnosed C-TIRADS 3/4a nodules were mainly papillary thyroid carcinoma,especially in patients with Hashimoto thyroiditis.There was not a consistent one-to-one match between each ultrasound result and each cytological classification of low-risk thyroid nodules.Conclusions When the malignant features in preoprative ultrasound imaging are atypical or absent,papillary thyroid carcinoma (especially with Hashimoto thyroiditis),follicular carcinoma,and medullary carcinoma are likely to be underdiagnosed as C-TIRADS 3 or 4a nodules.Therefore,efforts should be made to fully understand the cellular and pathological characteristics of these lesions.

Objective:To develop the Amputation Scale for Severe Open Pelvic Fractures and explore its application value in patients with severe open pelvic fractures.Methods:A total of 27 patients with severe open pelvic fractures who underwent surgical treatment in Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University from January 2010 to January 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 15 males and 12 females, aged 38.6±11.6 years (range, 13-65 years). There were 13 cases of traffic injuries, 10 cases of fall from height injuries, and 4 cases of mechanical crushing injuries; 20 cases were admitted to the hospital in emergency, and 7 cases were transferred from other hospitals. All fracture types were Tile C, including 14 cases of Tile C1, 8 cases of Tile C2, and 5 cases of Tile C3. There were 16 cases of genitourinary system injury, 8 cases of anal or rectal injury, 12 cases of abdominal injury, 9 cases of chest injury, and 6 cases of craniocerebral trauma. The mangled extremity severity score (MESS) and the Amputation Scale for Severe Open Pelvic Fractures were used to evaluate whether amputation was performed. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and accuracy of the two evaluation methods were calculated.Results:Among the 27 patients, 21 cases were treated with pelvic external fixator to control the volume, 16 cases were treated with gauze packing to stop bleeding, 8 cases were treated with temporary abdominal aorta occlusion, and 12 cases were treated with laparotomy because of abdominal injury. Seven of the 27 patients died, with a mortality rate of 26%. In 12 cases of one-stage amputation, 3 cases died, including 1 case died of multiple organ failure syndrome, 1 case died of gastrointestinal bleeding on the 7th day after amputation, and 1 case died of severe infection on the 4th day after amputation. Among the 15 cases of one-stage limb salvage, 4 cases died, of which 2 cases of second-stage amputation died of infection on the 5th day after one-stage limb salvage, and 1 case of one-stage limb salvage died of limb necrosis on the 3rd day after one-stage limb salvage. Two patients died of multiple organ failure syndrome. The MESS score of 27 patients was 6(6, 8) points (range, 6-13 points), and the Amputation Scale for Severe Open Pelvic Fractures score was 9.6±1.8 points (range, 6-14 points). The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and accuracy of MESS were 66.7%, 50%, 40%, 75% and 56%, respectively, while those of Amputation Scale for Severe Open Pelvic Fractures were 80%, 89%, 73%, 88% and 82%, respectively. The specificity and accuracy of MESS were significantly lower than those of Amputation Scale for Severe Open Pelvic Fractures ( P<0.05). All 20 patients who survived were followed up for 23.6±7.5 months (range, 11-37 months). Five cases had soft tissue infection at the stump of amputation, which were treated with debridement, and 3 cases underwent skin grafting, and the stump healed well at the last follow-up. Conclusion:The Amputation Scale for Severe Open Pelvic Fractures is better than MESS in the assessment of early amputation in patients with severe pelvic fractures.

This study aims to investigate the effects of aerobic exercise on neuroinflammation in AD mice and explore the mechanisms of neuroinflammation regulated by the blood-brain barrier,lipopolysaccharide(LPS)displacement,and glial cell activation.Twenty 3-month-old male APP/PS1 double transgenic mice were used,which were randomly divided into a sedentary group(SE-AD)and an aerobic exercise group(Run-AD),and 10 3-month-old male C57BL/6 mice were used as the control group(WT).The Run-AD group underwent 12 weeks of aerobic training.The results of the water maze showed that aerobic exercise improved the learning and memory capacity of AD mice(P＜0.05).The results of H&E stai-ning and Nissl staining showed that aerobic exercise reduced necrotic cells and inflammatory cell infiltra-tion in the cerebral cortex,as well as nuclear condensation in the CA1 and GD regions of the hippocam-pus(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),and increased the area of Nissl bodies in the cerebral cortex and hippocam-pal CA3 and DG regions.Western blotting and ELISA results showed that aerobic exercise increased the expression of Occludin,ZO-1 and Claudin-5 proteins in the brain(P＜0.01),and decreased the levels of LPS in the brain(P＜0.01).The qRT-PCR results exhibited that aerobic exercise decreased the ex-pression of TLR4,MyD88,NF-κB,IL-1β,and TNF-α mRNA(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).The results of immunofluorescence staining revealed that aerobic exercise reduced the fluorescence area of brain IL-1βand TNF-α proteins(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),as well as the fluorescence area of Iba-1,GFAP,and TLR4 proteins in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).There was a high degree of overlap between Iba-1 and TLR4 fluorescence in the cerebral cortex,and GFAP was localized around Iba-1.In summary,aerobic exercise attenuates neuroinflammation in AD mice by protecting the blood-brain barrier,reducing the displacement of LPS,and subsequently weakening the immune activation of microglia to regulate the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway to alleviate neuroinflammation.
