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 To evaluate the clinical outcome of neurosurgical robot-assisted stereotactic puncture and drainage for brain abscess.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 53 patients with brain abscess admitted to our hospital from January 2018 to December 2024.Among them,29 cases underwent craniotomy for abscess resection(craniotomy group),while 24 cases received neurosurgical robot-assisted stereotactic puncture and drainage(robot-assisted group).The operation time,intraoperative blood loss,decompressive craniectomy rate,proportion of postoperative antibiotic regimen adjustment,postoperative hospital stay,incidence of postoperative complications,mortality rate and Glasgow outcome scale(GOS)scores 6 months after surgery of patients were compared between the two groups.Results Compared with the craniotomy group,the robot-assisted group demonstrated significantly shorter operation time,less intraoperative blood loss,and lower incidence of postoperative complication,the differences were all statistically significant(P<0.05).However,there were no statistically significant differences in terms of decompressive craniectomy rate,postoperative hospital stay,mortality rate,GOS score,or proportion of the postoperative antibiotic regimen adjustment between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion As a precise and minimally invasive surgical method,neurosurgical robot-assisted stereotactic puncture and drainage for patients with brain abscess can effectively improve the operational efficiency,shorten the operation time,reduce intraoperative injury,and lower the risk of postoperative complications.It has high clinical application value and potential for widespread adoption.

Objective:To investigate the sero-conversion rate of HIV antibody and influencing factors in cross-border couples in Dehong Dai and Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture(Dehong).Methods:A cohort design was used to recruit HIV-negative people in cross-border couples in Dehong in 2017. Follow-up was conducted in 2023, and questionnaire survey and HIV test were carried out to calculate the sero-conversion rate of HIV antibody. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to analyze the influence factors for HIV infections.Results:A total of 36 278 HIV-negative persons in cross-border couples were included in the 2017 baseline survey, of whom 22 438 (61.9%) were tested in follow-up in 2023. The sero-conversion rate between 2017 and 2023 was 0.51% (115/22 438). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that length of marriage <6 years, Jingpo ethnic group, education level of primary school or below, drug use, illegal marriage and HIV infected spouse were the risk factors of HIV infection in male spouses, and length of marriage <6 years, Jingpo ethnic group, illegal marriage and HIV infected spouse were the risk factors in female spouses.Conclusions:The sero-conversion rate of HIV antibody in cross-border couples in Dehong was relatively high. HIV infection was mainly caused by secondary transmission in the couples, and men might also be infected through drug use. It is necessary to strengthen the registration and management of cross-border couples, especially the couples with discordant HIV infection status, and the intervention in drug users to reduce the risk for secondary transmission of HIV in the cross-border couples.

AIM To investigate the effects of Shuyu Pills combined with evolimus on the epithelial mesenchymal transformation of triple negative breast cancer cells 4T1 and MDA-MB-231 induced by TGF-β1.METHODS The 4T1 and MDA-MB-231 cells were divided into the blank group and the induction group to induce the epithelial mesenchymal transformation with TGF-β1 cytokine treatment,followed by the assignment into the model group,the Shuyu Pills group,the everolimus group and the Shuyu Pills combined with everolimus group.CCK8 method,plate cloning method,cell scratch test and Transewll test were used to detect the proliferation,cloning formation,migration and invasion ability of the cells whose expressions of E-cadherin,N-cadherin,Vimentin,MMP9,MMP2 and pathway proteins PTEN,PI3K,Akt and mTOR were detected by Western blot.RESULTS Compared with the blank group,the induction group displayed a cell morphological change from epithelioid to stromal,decreased expression of E-cadherin protein(P＜0.01);and increased protein expressions of N-cadherin and Vimentin(P＜0.05).Compared with the model group,each group intervened with the medicine displayed decreased proliferation,clone formation,migration and invasion ability of both kinds of cells(P＜0.01);increased protein expressions of PTEN and E-cadherin(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);and decreased protein expressions of PI3K,Akt,mTOR,N-cadherin,Vimentin,MMP9 and MMP2(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);and more significantly in the Shuyu Pills combined with evolimus group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).CONCLUSION With a more ideal effect than the single uses in inhibiting the TGF-β1-induced epithelial mesenchymal transformation of triple-negative breast cancer cells,the combination use of Shuyu Pills and everolimus may work through the regulation of PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway.

Spine fracture and dislocation are common traumatic spinal conditions that often require surgical intervention due to compromised spinal stability. Surgical approaches include anterior, posterior, and combined anterior-posterior spinal procedures. According to the specific surgical requirements, patients may be placed in the prone position or repositioned between prone and supine positions during surgery. Intraoperative repositioning has become an essential step in patient positioning. However, during repositioning, patients with spinal fracture and dislocation are at increased risk for complications such as hemodynamic instability, nerve injury, and pressure injuries to the skin and soft tissue. Notably, due to the instability of the spinal cord, even minor manipulations can further exacerbate the damage, potentially leading to severe outcomes like paraplegia. Although the current clinical guidelines provide instructive recommendations for standard position, there remains no specific protocols for intraoperative repositioning in patients with spine fracture and dislocation. With a concern for the lack of clinical studies on positioning techniques, risk prevention, and operational norms for special patients, no applicable guidelines or standards are available. A consensus was required to provide clinical reference, meet the requirements of surgical treatment, and minimize the safety risks of patients caused by improper placement of positions. Professional Committee of Operating Room Nursing of Shaanxi Nursing Association organized experts in nursing management and operating room nursing from major hospitals across China to formulate Expert consensus on intraoperative repositioning for patients with spinal fracture and dislocation ( version 2025). The consensus provides 11 recommendations covering pre-repositioning preparation, intraoperative maneuvers, and post-repositioning observation, aiming to provide references for clinical standardization of the intraoperative repositioning process and protection of patients′ safety.

Objective:To investigate the correlation of epithelial lesions among different biopsy sites in the female lower genital tract and the relationship between age and lesion distribution.Methods:A total of 406 148 patients with cervical biopsy specimens archived at the Department of Pathology, Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University from January 2010 to December 2021 were analyzed. Among them, 70 309 cases (17.31%) had concurrent vaginal biopsies, and 16 073 cases (3.96%) had concurrent vulvar biopsies. (1) Cases were divided into four 3-year intervals to compare vaginal or vulvar biopsy rates and high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) or worse (HSIL +) detection rates across time periods. (2) Correlations between cervical lesions and vaginal or vulvar lesions were assessed. (3) Patients were stratified into three age groups (<30, 30-49, and ≥50 years) to compare vaginal or vulvar HSIL + detection rates. Results:Mean ages of patients with cervical, vaginal, and vulvar biopsies were (41.3±11.0), (47.4±12.5), and (41.9±13.2) years, respectively. Patients with vaginal biopsy were significantly older than cervical or vulvar groups (all P<0.001). (1) Vaginal biopsy rates increased markedly from 7.37% (2010—2012) to 22.76% (2019—2021; χ2=9 205.01, P<0.001); vulvar biopsy rates increased slightly from 2.80% to 5.69% ( χ2=1 777.25, P<0.001). Correspondingly, vaginal HSIL + detection rates rose from 0.28% to >0.5% (0.56% in 2013—2015, 0.59% in 2016—2018, 0.51% in 2019—2021; χ2=134.70, P<0.001), while vulvar HSIL + rates increased from 0.03% to 0.33% ( χ2=56.54, P<0.001). (2) Weak correlation existed between cervical and vaginal lesions ( r=0.28; P<0.001; n=70 309), while cervical-vulvar correlation was weaker ( r=0.22, P<0.001; n=16 073). (3) Vaginal HSIL + detection rates were higher in cervical HSIL + patients aged 30-49 years (26.65%) and ≥50 years (26.79%) versus <30 years (14.63%; both P<0.001). Conversely, vulvar HSIL + detection rates were higher in the <30 years group (23.08%) versus 30-49 years (13.83%) and ≥50 years (12.89%; both P<0.05). Conclusions:Vaginal or vulvar lesion detection rates increase with biopsy frequency. Vaginal lesions correlate with cervical abnormalities, whereas vulvar lesions are relatively independent. In cervical HSIL + patients, those <30 years are more prone to have vulvar HSIL +, while those ≥30 years show higher vaginal HSIL + incidence. These age-specific distribution patterns inform optimized biopsy strategies.

Aim To investigate the role and mechanism of KLHL21 gene in myocardial infarction(MI)of mice.Methods KLHL21 gene knockout(KO)mice were generated using CRISPR/Cas9 technology,and C57BL/6 wild-type mice were used as controls.Sixty KLHL21 KO mice and 60 wild-type mice were randomly divided into four groups:WT+Sham group(n=30),WT+MI group(n=30),KO+Sham group(n=30)and KO+MI group(n=30).Postoperative is-chemic and infarct areas were assessed using TTC and Evans Blue staining,myocardial injury markers were measured by ELISA,cardiac function was evaluated by ultrasound,and histological changes were examined using HE and Masson stai-ning.Western blot was used to detect proteins related to the nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)signaling pathway.Results KLHL21 protein expression in the myocardial tissue of KO mice was significantly lower than that in WT mice.The infarct area in KO+MI mice was significantly larger than that in WT+MI group.KO+MI mice showed reduced cardiac function compared with WT+MI mice.HE staining revealed myocardial cell loss,liquefactive necrosis,nuclear fragmentation,and significant neutrophil infiltration,while Masson staining showed aggravated fibrosis in KO+MI group.Serum tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-α),interleukin-6(IL-6),creatine kinase-MB(CK-MB),and cardiac troponin Ⅰ(cTnⅠ)lev-els were significantly increased in KO+MI mice compared with WT+MI mice.Western blot analysis showed increased lev-els of phosphorylated inhibitor of nuclear factor-κB alpha(p-IKBα),P65,and P50,and decreased nuclear factor-κB al-pha(IKBα)in KO+MI mice.Conclusion KLHL21 gene plays a preventive role in myocardial infarction in mice,possibly through inhibition of NF-κB signaling pathway activation.

Objective:To investigate the prognostic value of deep learning-based automated quantification of tumor-stroma ratio (TSR) in patients undergoing neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) for breast cancer.Methods:Specimens were collected from 209 breast cancer patients who received NAT at Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from October 2019 to June 2023. TSR levels in pre-NAT biopsy specimens were automatically computed using a deep learning algorithm and categorized into low stroma (TSR≤30%), intermediate stroma (TSR 30% to ≤60%), and high stroma (TSR>60%) groups. Residual cancer burden (RCB) grading of post-NAT surgical specimens was determined to compare the relationship between TSR expression levels and RCB grades. The correlation of TSR with NAT efficacy was analyzed, and the association between TSR expression and patient prognosis was further investigated.Results:There were 85 cases with low stroma (TSR≤30%), 93 cases with intermediate stroma (TSR 30% to ≤60%), and 31 cases with high stroma (TSR>60%). Different TSR expression levels showed significant differences between various RCB grades ( P<0.05). Logistic univariate and multivariate analyses showed that TSR was a risk factor for obtaining a complete pathological remission from neoadjuvant therapy for breast cancer when it was used as a continuous variable ( P<0.05); COX regression and survival analyses showed that the lower the percentage of tumorigenic mesenchyme was, the better the prognosis of the patient was ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The deep learning-based model enables automatic and accurate quantification of TSR. A lower pre-treatment tumoral stroma is associated with a lower RCB score and a higher rate of pathologic complete response, indicating that TSR can predict the efficacy of neoadjuvant therapy in breast cancer and thus holds prognostic significance. Therefore, TSR may serve as a biomarker for predicting therapeutic outcomes in breast cancer neoadjuvant therapy.

Aim To explore the compatibility and po-tential mechanism of effective components of Biejia-Ezhu against triple negative breast cancer(TNBC)and verify it by experiments.Methods Effective compo-nents and targets of Biejia-Ezhu were obtained by TC-MSP and Swiss Target Prediction.Disease targets of TNBC were obtained from OMMI and GeneCards data-bases.The PPI network was constructed using STRING database.GO and KEGG path enrichment analysis was performed using DAVID database.Cytoscape3.9.1 software was used to construct the"drug-component-target-disease"network,screen key targets and compo-nents for molecular docking,and further verify the com-patibility of key components and targets in vitro.Re-sults ① A total of 71 effective components were iden-tified in the Biejia-Ezhu drug pair.There were 146 drug targets associated with the disease.A total of 113 signaling pathways were identified by KEGG analysis.The 71 potential active components of Biejia-Ezhu mainly acted on key targets such as mTORC1,ULK1,TNF,EGFR,ESR1,STAT3,HIF1A,and PTGS2.Mo-lecular docking results showed that glycine and curcu-min were the key active components of Biejia-Ezhu,and both had strong docking activity against key target proteins mTORC1 and ULK1.②The results of in vitro experiment showed that glycine combined with curcu-min significantly inhibited the proliferation and clonal formation ability of TNBC cells(P＜0.05),up-regula-ted the expression of autophagy marker LC3 Ⅱ/Ⅰ,down-regulated the expression of EGFR,down-regula-ted the expression of pathway protein mTORC1,p-mTOR,p-ULK1,and promoted the expression of path-way protein ULK1(P＜0.05).Conclusion The key component of Biejia-Ezhu against triple-negative breast cancer is glycine-curcumin,the mechanism of which may be related to the regulation of the mTORC1/ULK1 signaling pathway to promote autophagy.
