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 observe the effect of Danshen injection (DSI) on pulmonary fibrosis in silicosis mice, and to analyze the differential metabolic pathway on pulmonary fibrosis in silicosis using DSI by urine metabolomics. Methods The specific pathogen free C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into control group, silicosis model group, DSI prevention group and DSI treatment group. The mice in the last three groups were given 1 mL silica suspension with a mass concentration of 50 g/L by the one-time non-exposed tracheal method, and the mice in the control group were not given any treatment. Subsequently, mice in the DSI prevention group and the DSI treatment group were given intraperitoneal injection of DSI with a dose of 5 mL/kg body weight from 24 hours after exposure to dust and from the 29th day after exposure to dust, respectively, once per day until the 56th day after exposure. Mice in the other two groups were not treated. After DSI intervention, the lung histopathological changes of mice in all groups were evaluated. The components of mouse urine metabolites were analyzed using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-fight mass spectrometry method. Human Metabolome Database was used to screen the potential differential metabolites (DMs). The related metabolic pathways were analyzed using MetaboAnanlyst 5.0 Web analytics platform. Results The result of hematoxylin-eosin staining and Van Gieson staining of mouse lung tissues showed that the pulmonary alveolar structure destroyed, typical fibrotic nodules appeared, collagen fiber deposition increased, and clumpy accumulation in the silicosis model group, compared with the control group. Compared with the silicosis model group, the degree of pulmonary alveolar inflammation and fibrosis in the lung tissues of mice in the DSI prevention group was obviously reduced to close to the control group, while pulmonary alveolar inflammation and fibrosis in the lung tissues of mice in the DSI treatment group were also reduced, although the outcome was not as good as that in the DSI prevention group. The result of urine metabolomics analysis identified four DMs in the model group and control group, seven DMs were identified in the DSI prevention group and silicosis model group, seven DMs were identified in the DSI treatment group and silicosis model group. A total of three DMs pathways related to pulmonary fibrosis in silicosis model group and the protective effect of DSI prevention group were identified, including D-arginine and D-ornithine metabolism, folic acid biosynthesis and metabolism, pantothenate and succinyl coenzyme A biosynthesis pathways (all P<0.01). Conclusion DSI treatment in any time point can interfere the process of pulmonary fibrosis in the silicosis mice, while the interference is more effective in the DSI group treated right after dust-exposure. DSI interferes with the urinary metabolism pathway of silicosis mice, and the D-arginine and D-ornithine metabolism, folic acid biosynthesis and metabolism, pantothenate and succinyl coenzyme A biosynthesis pathways may participate in the inhibiting process of early pulmonary fibrosis in silicosis mice by DSI.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of low-dose esketamine for postoperative analgesia on the postoperative depression in patients with gastrointestinal tumors.Methods:This study was a prospective randomized controlled trial. Eighty patients, aged 18-64 yr, with a body mass index of 18-25 kg/m 2, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅱ or Ⅲ, scheduled for elective radical resection of the gastrointestinal tumor under general anesthesia from June to November 2023 in our hospital, were divided into 2 groups ( n=40 each) using a random number table method: esketamine group (group E) and control group (group C). Each patient received postoperative patient-controlled intravenous analgesia(PCIA). The PCIA solution in group E contained esketamine 0.5 mg/kg, dezocine 0.5 mg/kg, dexmetomidine 1.5 μg/kg and flurbiprofen ester 100 mg in 100 ml of normal saline. The PCIA solution in group C contained dezocine 0.5 mg/kg, dexmetomidine 1.5 μg/kg and flurbiprofen ester 100 mg in 100 ml of normal saline. The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) was used to assess the patients′ anxiety and depression at 1 day before operation (T 0) and 2 days after operation (T 1). The Quality of Recovery-15 scale was used to evaluate the early postoperative recovery quality. Visual analog scale scores, the pressing times of patient-controlled analgesia and the number of rescue analgesia were recorded within 2 days after operation. The occurrence of drug-related adverse reactions was also recorded. Results:Seventy-eight patients were finally included, with 39 cases in group E and 39 cases in group C. Compared with group C, the postoperative HADS-depression scale score and incidence of depression were significantly decreased, the Quality of Recovery-15 scale score was increased, the visual analog scale scores were decreased ( P<0.05), and no significant changes were found in the postoperative HADS-anxiety scale score and incidence of anxiety, the pressing times of patient-controlled analgesia and the number of rescue analgesia in group E ( P>0.05). Visual hallucination was found at 1 day after operation in one patient and relieved at 2 days after operation in group E. There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative dizziness, nausea and vomiting between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Postoperative analgesia with 0.5 mg/kg esketamine can alleviate postoperative depressive symptoms, enhance the efficacy of analgesia and improve the early postoperative recovery quality in patients with gastrointestinal tumors.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS) in the perioperative period of congenital choledochal cysts in children.Methods:This is a multicenter prospective randomized controlled study. The clinical data of 273 pediatric congenital choledochal cysts(CCC) patients who underwent surgery at 14 medical centers with complete follow-up data were collected through the medical data analysis platform. Among them, 123 cases in ERAS group were managed perioperatively in strict accordance with ERAS mode, and 150 cases in conventional group were managed according to traditional mode. The length of hospital stay,time to first farting, time to complete feeding, the incidence of complications, cost and readmission rate within 30 days,stress indexes and liver function were compared between the two groups.Results:Compared with the conventional group, median time to start farting (2.0 d vs. 3.0 d, P<0.001), median time to complete feeding (5.0 d vs. 7.0 d, P<0.001), median postoperative hospitalization time (6.0 d vs. 9.0 d, P<0.001),the median total length of stay(13.0 d vs. 15.0 d, P<0.001) were shorter,the median hospitalization cost (37,000 yuan vs.43,000 yuan P<0.001) was lower, and stress indexes recovered quickly. The incidence of postoperative hospital stay and readimission rate within 30 d were not statistically different between the two groups. Conclusion:It is safe and feasible to implement ERAS for children with CCC in the perioperative period, which can reduce stress response, speed up recovery,and save medical costs.

Immmunosuppressants are mainly used to reduce rejection after solid organ transplantation,so as to improve the success rate of organ transplantation.However,long-term use of immunosuppressants can also serious-ly impair the immune function of patients,thereby increasing the risk of viral infection and postoperative complica-tions,leading to transplant failure.Therefore,patients need to use both immunosuppressants and antiviral agents.If some immunosuppressants with antiviral effects are found,the patient's burden of taking medicines will be greatly reduced.Currently,the immunosuppressants with antiviral effect have been focused by researchers.The gradual re-vealing of the antiviral mechanism of these immunosuppressants will help to optimize the treatment plan of postope-rative rehabilitation of organ transplant recipients.Based on the mechanism of rejection of transplanted organ,this paper systematically describes the types of viruses which closely related to infection of organ transplant patients and the molecular mechanism of some immunosuppressants in antiviral aspects,which further provides a new idea for clinical prevention and treatment of viral infection due to organ transplantation.
