ObjectiveTo explore the changes in color， odor and chemical components during wine-processing of Chuanxiong Rhizoma（CR）， identify differential markers， and provide a basis for standardizing the process and establishing quality standards. MethodsFifteen batches of CR samples from 4 producing areas were collected. Colorimeter and electronic nose were used to detect the color changes and odor components of CR before and after wine-processing. Multivariate statistical methods including partial least squares-discriminant analysis（PLS-DA）， principal component analysis（PCA）， discriminant factor analysis（DFA） and Fisher discriminant analysis were applied to identify wine-processed CR at different processing stages and establish discriminant models， and differential components were screened out based on variable importance in the projection（VIP） value1. Then， high performance liquid chromatography（HPLC） was employed to detect the content changes of four components（ferulic acid， senkyunolide I， senkyunolide A and ligustilide） during the processing stages. ResultsThe differences of wine-processed CR at various stages were primarily reflected in color parameters L^*（brightness value）， a^*（red-green value） and b^*（yellow-blue value）. Based on chromaticity differences， the color reference ranges were established for moderately processed CR， including L^* of 46.75-48.24， a^* of 5.37-6.07 and b^* of 20.32-21.70. In odor analysis， DFA revealed significant differences among processing stages， and 11 odor markers were identified， with four differential markers（4-hydroxy-3-butylphthalide， isopropyl butyrate， L-limonene and 1-methoxyhexane） based on VIP values. HPLC results showed that there was no significant difference of the four components except for ligustilide in wine-processed CR at different stages. ConclusionThis study achieved rapid identification of wine-processed CR with different processing degrees by electronic sensory technology and differential component content detection， with discrimination accuracy rates of 92.4% and 93.272% for color and odor， respectively. This paper also established the reference ranges of main colorimetric parameters for wine-processed CR at different stages， and four differential components were screened out， providing a basis for standardizing the processing of wine-processed CR and establishing quality standards for this decoction pieces.

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.

ObjectiveTo understand the level of medical narrative competence among hospice care practitioners in Shanxi Province， explore its influencing factors， and provide references for carrying out targeted training and improving the medical narrative competence of the medical and nursing staff. MethodsUsing convenience sampling， a total of 102 medical and nursing staff from hospitals providing hospice care in Shanxi Province were recruited as the research subjects. Questionnaire surveys were conducted with the Self-Designed General Information Questionnaire and the Self-Rating Scale for Medical Narrative Competence as the research tools. Univariate analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were adopted to explore the level of medical narrative competence and its influencing factors among hospice care practitioners in Shanxi Province. ResultsThe total score of medical narrative competence among hospice care practitioners in Shanxi Province was （158.19±19.69）. The mean scores of all dimensions were ranked from the lowest to the highest as attention and listening， understanding and response， and reflection and representation. Univariate analysis demonstrated that working years in hospice care， daily communication frequency with patients， weekly communication duration， degree of colleague care， professional recognition， job satisfaction， and familiarity with narrative medicine constituted the influencing factors for the level of medical narrative competence among hospice care practitioners （all P<0.05）. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that working years in hospice care， degree of colleague care， and familiarity with narrative medicine had statistically significant effects on the medical narrative competence of hospice care practitioners （all P<0.05）. ConclusionAdministrators of hospice care should prioritize medical and nursing staff who lack familiarity with narrative medicine， have low degrees of colleague care， experience short working years， and possess low professional recognition and job satisfaction with hospice care work. Targeted training should be strengthened for these individuals to improve their medical narrative competence level， thereby enhancing the quality of hospice care services.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the quality of clinical practice guidelines and expert consensus statements on knee osteoarthritis （KOA） based on the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research & Evaluation Ⅱ （AGREE Ⅱ）， thus providing a new perspective for clinical selection as well as guideline development and updating. MethodsA systematic search was conducted for KOA-related guidelines and consensus statements published from November 1， 2019 to December 31， 2025. The databases and platforms searched included CNKI， VIP， Wanfang Data， PubMed， Web of Science， the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence （NICE）， SinoMed， Yimaitong， and relevant official websites. Two researchers independently screened the literature， and four researchers used AGREE Ⅱ to score the included documents and completed the quality appraisal after reaching a unified understanding. Subgroup analyses were further performed according to developing organization， document type， medical approach， funding status， and region of development， and longitudinal comparisons were conducted by year of publication. ResultsA total of 23 guidelines and consensus statements were included. The standardized scores of the six AGREE Ⅱ domains， from the highest to the lowest， were clarity of presentation ［（70.36±8.13）%］， scope and purpose ［（67.46 ± 11.44）%］， editorial independence ［（64.50±20.01）%］， rigor of development ［（62.24±15.26）%］， stakeholder involvement ［（55.73±10.29）%］， and applicability ［（53.89±13.17）%］. In terms of overall recommendation， 6 documents were rated as grade A and 17 as grade B. Stratified analyses showed that professional organizations scored higher than comprehensive organizations. The overall scores of traditional Chinese medicine/integrative medicine and Western medicine guidelines （or consensus statements） were similar. Guidelines scored higher than consensus statements. The overall scores were similar between documents with reported funding and those without reported funding. International guidelines scored higher than domestic guidelines. Longitudinal comparisons showed that the largest number of documents was published in 2021. The overall scores were higher in 2021—2022， and some domain scores declined in 2023—2024. Overall， the quality of recent guidelines and consensus statements for KOA showed slight fluctuations， without a clear linear trend. ConclusionThe included guidelines and consensus statements for KOA can generally serve as references for clinical practice. However， the quality across domains remains uneven， and stakeholder involvement and applicability are still weak domains. Future guideline development and updating should further improve methodological standardization and transparency in reporting.

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.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of Gelian Tiaotang pills on renal fibrosis in db/db mice based on the nucleotide-binding domain leucine-rich repeat and pyrin domain-containing receptor 3 （NLRP3）/cysteinyl aspartate-specific proteinase （Caspase）-1/gasdermin D （GSDMD） signaling pathway. MethodsForty db/db mice were randomly assigned into model， positive control （0.001 3 g·kg·d^-1 dapagliflozin suspension）， and high-， medium-， and low-dose Gelian Tiaotang pills （3.12， 1.56， and 0.78 g·kg·d^-1 suspension of Gelian Tiaotang pills， respectively） groups， with 8 mice in each group. Eight db/m mice were selected as the normal group. The normal group and model group were given equal volumes of pure water， while the drug interventions groups were administrated with corresponding agents by gavage once a day for 12 consecutive weeks. The general conditions of mice were observed daily. The fasting blood glucose （FBG） and body mass were measured every 4 weeks. Kidneys were weighed after sampling， and the kidney index was calculated. An automatic biochemical analyzer was used to measure the serum levels of triglyceride （TG）， total cholesterol （TC）， serum creatinine （SCr）， and blood urea nitrogen （BUN）. The pathological changes， extracellular matrix deposition， and renal fibrosis degree were examined by hematoxylin-eosin， periodic acid-schiff （PAS）， and Masson staining， respectively. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was employed to measure the levels of interleukin （IL）-1β and IL-18 in the renal tissue. Immunohistochemistry （IHC） was used to detect the localization and expression of fibronectin and collagen Ⅰ in the renal tissue. Western blot was employed to determine the protein levels of NLRP3， Caspase-1， cleaved Caspase-1， GSDMD， and GSDMD-N in the renal tissue. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the model group generally had poor general states and increases in the body mass， kidney weight， kidney index， and levels of FBG， TG， TC， SCr， and BUN （P<0.01）. In addition， glomerular pyknosis， increased matrix， vacuolar degeneration of renal tubular epithelial cells， and interstitial infiltration of inflammatory cells were observed in the model group （P<0.01）， together with rises in the levels of IL-1β and IL-18 in the renal tissue （P<0.01） and up-regulated protein levels of NLRP3， Caspase-1， cleaved Caspase-1， GSDMD， GSDMD-N， fibronectin， and collagen Ⅰ in the renal tissue （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， 12 weeks of drug interventions reduced the body mass， kidney weight， and kidney index and lowered the levels of FBG， TG， TC， SCr， and BUN in the serum and IL-1β and IL-18 in the renal tissue （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Furthermore， drug interventions ameliorated the renal lesions and down-regulated the protein levels of NLRP3， Caspase-1， cleaved Caspase-1， GSDMD， GSDMD-N， fibronectin， and collagen Ⅰ in the renal tissue （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The high-dose group of Gelian Tiaotang pills had the best effects. ConclusionGelian Tiaotang pills may inhibit pyroptosis and reduce inflammatory responses by regulating the NLRP3/Caspase-1/GSDMD signaling pathway， thus delaying the process of renal fibrosis in diabetes.

Objective: To assess the nutritional supply status of school meals for primary and secondary school students in Henan Province, so as to provide a basis for scientific guidance of school meals. Methods: During 2021-2023, 115 lunch and dinner samples were collected from 25 primary and secondary schools in Zhoukou, Anyang and Luoyang of Henan Province by a direct selection method, and 13 nutrients were determined for each sample. The nutrient supply was evaluated based on Nutrition Guidelines of School Meals and Reference Intake of Dietary Nutrients for Chinese Residents (2023 Edition). Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare the differences of nutritional supply between urban and rural schools. Results: The median values for energy (709.77 kcal,1 kcal=4.18 kJ), fat energy supply ratio (0.27) and carbohydrate energy supply ratio (0.55) in the 66 lunches and dinners from primary school were within the recommended range. The supply of protein (28.39 g) and sodium (1 464.59 mg) was excessive. The median values of zinc (2.62 mg) and dietary fiber (5.19 g) were lower than the reference values. No statistically significant differences were observed in the supply of 13 nutrients between urban and rural primary schools( U = 427.00 -633.00, P > 0.05 ). Among 49 samples from secondary schools, the median value of energy supply (930.02 kcal), carbohydrate energy ratio ( 0.54 ) and fat energy supply ratio(0.25) were within the recommended range; and the median values of protein (38.82 g) and sodium (2 556.80 mg) were higher than the standard; and the median values of calcium (250.32 mg) and vitamin B1 (0.16 mg) were lower than the standard. Additionally, the differences in the level of vitamin B2 ( U =372.00) and zinc ( U =375.00) between the urban and rural secondary schools were statistically significant ( P <0.05). Conclusion Nutrient supply of primary and secondary school meals in three cities of Henan Province is inadequate and imbalanced, and the recipe need to be further optimized and improved.
