Chronic post-surgical pain (CPSP) is a common long-term complication following lung surgery. Its high incidence significantly impacts patients’ quality of life and functional recovery, and imposes a substantial socioeconomic burden. This consensus aims to systematically establish a standardized integrated Chinese and Western medicine diagnostic and treatment framework for chronic post-lung surgery pain (CPLSP). Based on the latest domestic and international evidence-based medical research and multidisciplinary clinical experience, the working group comprehensively elaborates on core issues regarding CPLSP, including its definition, epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical assessment, Western medical treatment, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatment, and integrated strategies. The consensus emphasizes a patient-centered approach, adhering to the principles of multimodality, individualization, and stepwise management, highlighting the synergistic advantages of integrating Chinese and Western medicine throughout the entire perioperative management cycle encompassing "perioperative anti-inflammation, acute analgesia, and chronic rehabilitation." Through systematic literature retrieval and evidence integration, a total of 9 core recommendations were established to provide scientifically sound and clinically practical guidance.

Objective: Adolescent depression is a highly prevalent and disabling mental disorder with unclear pathophysiology and unfavorable treatment outcomes. Recent efforts have been focusing on searching for biomarkers as specific indicators of adolescent depression. We performed a systematic literature review and meta-analysis, specifically including studies with healthy control groups as an inclusion criterion. This approach helps to avoid confounding factors and provides more accurate results regarding the inflammatory and immune biomarkers associated with adolescent depression. Methods: Three electronic databases were searched for studies comparing the means and changes in the biomarkers between depressed adolescent patients and healthy controls published in English until February 2024. Two authors independently performed the screening, quality assessment, and data extraction of the studies. A meta-analysis was conducted on outcomes reported by two or more studies using a random-effects model and presented Forrest plots and test statistics (I2) for heterogeneity analysis. Results: Nine studies were included in the review, including seven case-control studies and two cross-sectional studies. These studies included 24 target biomarkers, 13 of which were quantified in 2 or more studies. Compared to the healthy controls, the depressed adolescents had significantly higher values in ten indicators. Additionally, the depressed adolescents had lower procalcitonin levels than the healthy controls. The two groups showed no significant differences in the remaining 13 biomarkers. Conclusion Our findings offer fresh insights into the pathophysiology of inflammatory and immune aspects of adolescent depression and provide helpful guidance in developing targeted and effective intervention and prevention strategies to address adolescent depression.

Objective To explore the feasibility and safety of bilateral uterine artery embolization(UAE)via distal radial artery access.Methods Thirty patients who underwent bilateral UAE were selected.They were divided into distal radial artery group(14 cases)and femoral artery group(16 cases).The clinical signs,puncture times,operation time,compression hemostasis time,discomfort scores,microcatheter non-use rates,and complication rates of the two groups were analyzed,the feasibility and safety of bilateral UAE via distal radial artery access were evaluated.Results The mean number of puncture times in the distal radial artery group was 1.6 times that of the femoral artery group,and the puncture pain score was 1.5 times that of the femoral artery group(P＜0.05).The operation time and puncture point compression hemostasis time in the distal radial artery group were shorter than those in the femoral artery group,and the discomfort score of compression hemostasis in the distal radial artery group was lower than that in the femoral artery group(P＜0.01).The proportions who did not use microcatheters in the two groups accounted for 28.6％and 6.3％,respectively,the difference was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).Four patients with poor access vessels were found in the distal radial artery group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Bilateral UAE via distal radial artery access is safe and feasible.

Objective To investigate the effects of pulsed radiofrequency(PRF)with intercostal nerve block on analgesia analgesia effect,cognitive function and postoperative delirium in elderly patients undergoing thoracoscopic lung surgery.Methods Ninety elderly patients undergoing thoracoscopic lung surgery in our hospital were randomly divided into the control group(intercostal nerve block with local anesthetic drugs)and the PRF group(PRF with intercostal nerve block).The pain score,analgesic effect,cognitive function,postoperative delirium and neurological dysfunction of the two groups were compared.Results The pain scores of resting and coughing state 48 hours and 72 hours after surgery in the PRF group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The number of analgesic pump compression and proportion of supplemental analgesia within 72 hours after surgery and perioperative sufentanil dosage in the PRF group were significantly less than those in the control group(P<0.05).The cognitive function scores 48 hours and 72 hours after surgery in the PRF group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).The incidence of delirium 72 hours after surgery in the PRF group was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of intercostal nerve dysfunction 1 month,2 months and 3 months after surgery between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion PRF with intercostal nerve block can effectively relieve pain after elderly thoracoscopic lung surgery,reduce postoperative opioid consumption,improve postoperative cognitive function,and decrease postoperative delirium incidence without affecting the intercostal nerve function,which is safe and reliable.

On the basis of the laboratory detection results of influenza viruses in Jiangsu Province from 2022 to 2023,this study was aimed at conducting a analysis of the genetic characteristics and resistance of the H3N2 influenza virus,and evalua-ting the effectiveness of vaccines and drugs.The full genome of 29 H3N2 isolates submitted by provincewide influenza surveil-lance network laboratories was amplified and sequenced.Phylogenetic trees of the HA and NA genes were constructed.The mutation characteristics of antigenic sites,glycosylation sites,and resistance sites were analyzed,and the influenza virus neura-minidase was detected with a fluorescence luminescence method.The homology of the 29 H3N2 isolates in Jiangsu Province was relatively high.The isolates belonged to the same evolutionary branch as domestic reference strains and the 2021-2022 vaccine strains,but were in different evolutionary branches from foreign reference strains and the 2022-2023 vaccine strains.Compared with the 2021-2022 vaccine strain A/Cambodia/e0826360/2020,the H3N2 influenza viruses isolated in Jiangsu Province during 2022-2023 had four amino acid substitutions in the HA protein and two amino acid substitutions in the NA protein.No changes in glycosylation sites,receptor-binding sites,and conserved amino acid residue regions were observed.IC50 analysis indicated that the 29 H3N2 isolates were not resistant to the antiviral drugs oseltamivir and zanamivir.The pre-dominant influenza viruses detected in Jiangsu Province during 2022-2023 were type A H3N2 influenza viruses.Monitoring of variations in HA and NA gene sites and influenza virus resistance aids in rapid understanding gene mutations,and can inform the selection of effective vaccine strains,and contribute to the prevention and control of influenza virus outbreaks.
