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 explore the clinical manifestations, pathology, and prognosis of hepatic mesenchymal hamartoma (MHL).Methods:Clinical data of 10 MHL patients treated at the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from December 2009 to July 2024 were retrospectively analyzed, including seven males and three females, aged (48±23) years. Patients’ age, gender, clinical manifestations, treatment methods, prognosis, and other clinical data were collected.Results:Among them, four cases presented with upper abdominal distension and pain, while the other six showed no abnormal symptoms. All patients had palpable round masses of varying sizes in the upper abdomen. Nine patients had single lesion, among which five were located in the right hepatic lobe, three in the left hepatic lobe, and one in the caudate lobe. One patient had multiple lesions located in both the left and right anterior lobe. The maximum diameter of lesions ranged from 1.5 to 20.0 cm. Seven cases presented with unilocular cystic-solid masses, and three with multilocular cystic-solid masses, with varying sizes of cystic cavities. Microscopically, the tumors exhibited myxoid stroma with spindle or stellate cells, irregular branching bile ducts, residual hepatocyte islands, and variably sized cystic spaces. Four cases with malignant transformation additionally showed undifferentiated mesenchymal cells with atypia, mitotic figures, tumor giant cells, and eosinophilic cytoplasmic inclusions. Immunohistochemistry indicated tumor tissue exhibited positive expression of hepatocyte marker Hepacyte and negative expression of alpha-fetoprotein. The proliferative bile duct epithelium showed positive expression of CK7, CK19, and CK8/18. The spindle cell area expressed vimentin and SMA, with focal expression of desmin, and a Ki67 proliferation index of 5%. In the region of MHL complicated by undifferentiated embryonal sarcoma, there was positive expression of desmin, myogenin, and myoglobin, with a Ki67 proliferation index as high as 30%, and focal expression of S-100, α1-antitrypsin, and CK. A total of seven patients were followed up. Among them, two patients with MHL accompanied by undifferentiated embryonal sarcoma formation experienced tumor recurrence and metastasis after surgery, one patient died after the operation, and the remaining four patients showed no signs of recurrence or metastasis as of the last follow-up.Conclusion:MHL is a rare benign mesenchymal tumor of the liver, which is clinically and radiologically difficult to distinguish from other hepatic tumors. Definitive diagnosis requires percutaneous biopsy or postoperative pathological examination of the tumor. Patients with non-malignant MHL who undergo surgical treatment generally have a favorable prognosis.

Objective To explore the feasibility and safety of ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation for unresectable pancreatic cancer.Methods Totally 84 patients who underwent ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation for unresectable pancreatic cancer were enrolled,and the technical success rate,complete ablation rate,complication rate,pain relief rate and survival time,etc.were observed.Results The median age of 84 cases was 61.5 years.Totally 86 tumors,including 44.19％(38/86)at the head/neck and 55.81％(48/86)at the body/tail of pancreas were detected,and a total of 85 ablation sessions were performed with the median ablation energy applied per tumor of 9.90(1.08,21.60)kJ and the complete ablation rate of 42.86％(36/84).The technical success rate was 100％(85/85).Thirty-nine complication events occurred in 25 cases,no ablation-related death.Among 34 patients underwent ablation mainly for pain symptoms,the pain score decreased from(6.22±1.12)points before treatment to(1.94±1.64)points after treatment(P＜0.001).During 6.8(3.3,12.9)months' follow-up,the mean survival time was(8.5±6.7)months,and all 47 patients died due to tumor progression.Conclusion Ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation was safe and feasible for unresectable pancreatic cancer.

Objective To study the application value of CAD/CAM technology in the teaching of inlay manufacturing.Methods A total of 60 undergraduates interned in the Department of Stomatology,Yan'an Hospital,Kunming Medical University were randomly divided into an experimental group(n=30)and a control group(n=30).We selected appropriate clinical cases for students to prepare for mandibular molar's proximal occlusal inlays.The instructor guided the results of the first preparation in different ways,and the students made the second modification and preparation,and the assessment team scored and evaluated the five aspects of the final preparation,the shape of the preparation,the shape of the occlusal surface,the dovetail retention,and the adjacent surface.Results The scores of all detection indexes in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The application of CAD/CAM technology in inlay manufacturing teaching can effectively improve students'clinical hands-on ability and achieve better teaching effects than traditional teaching methods.

Objective To investigate the expression of inositol polyphosphate 4-phosphatase type Ⅱ B(INPP4B)in colorectal cancer(CRC)and the relevant clinical significance,to determine the relationship between INPP4B and matrix metallopeptidase 7(MMP7)in CRC cells,and to make preliminary exploration of the effects of INPP4B on the proliferation and migration of CRC cells and mechanisms involved.Methods The TIMER2.0 and GEPIA2 databases were used to analyze the differences in INPP4B expression between cancer and para-cancerous tissues and the effects of such differences on the prognosis of CRC.The expression of INPP4B in 102 surgically resected CRC tumors was determined by immunohistochemistry(IHC),and the correlation between INPP4B and clinical pathological indicators was analyzed.In CRC cells with overexpressed/knocked-down INPP4B,the expression of INPP4B and MMP7 were examined by real time fluorogenic quantitative PCR,the protein expression of INPP4B was assessed by Western blot,cell proliferation was determined using the CellTiter 96? AQueous One assay,and cell migration and invasion were assessed using wound healing assay and real-time label-free dynamic cell analysis(RTCA).The LinkedOmics database was used to analyze signaling pathways related to INPP4B function,and the role of potential key molecules was validated at the cellular level.Results Analysis with the TIMER2.0 database and GEPIA2 database showed elevated INPP4B expression(colon adenocarcinoma[COAD]:2.30,rectal adenocarcinoma[READ]:2.33)in CRC compared to normal tissue(COAD:1.91,READ:1.89).IHC testing confirmed that INPP4B was upregulated in clinical CRC tissues and paracancerous tissues(P＜0.001).Cox regression model analysis showed that INPP4B(hazards ratio[HR]=1.457,95％confidence interval[CI]:1.003-2.115)affected the prognosis of CRC,and the Kaplan-Meier curve showed that patients with high INPP4B expression had shorter overall survival(P＜0.05).x2 test was performed to analyze the relationship between INPP4B expression and clinicopathological indexes,and it was found that high expression of INPP4B was correlated with lymph node metastasis(x2=3.997,P=0.046)and neural invasion(x2=8.511,P=0.004).In in vitro experiments,CRC cells overexpressing INPP4B showed a significantly increased cell proliferation and migration compared to the cells in the control group(P＜0.05).Analysis using the LinkedOmics database showed that INPP4B was correlated with extracellular matrix remodeling and cell migration.Pearson's correlation analysis showed that MMP7 was positively correlated with INPP4B(r=0.3782,P＜0.001).INPP4B overexpression or knockdown in vitro also led to the upregulation or the downregulation of MMP7 expression in CRC cells.Conclusion INPP4B is highly expressed in CRC tissues and significantly correlated with lymph node metastasis,neural invasion,and patient prognosis.MMP7 may mediate the role of INPP4B in promoting CRC cell migration and invasion.

Background::Breast cancer (BC) risk-stratification tools for Asian women that are highly accurate and can provide improved interpretation ability are lacking. We aimed to develop risk-stratification models to predict long- and short-term BC risk among Chinese women and to simultaneously rank potential non-experimental risk factors.Methods::The Breast Cancer Cohort Study in Chinese Women, a large ongoing prospective dynamic cohort study, includes 122,058 women aged 25-70 years old from the eastern part of China. We developed multiple machine-learning risk prediction models using parametric models (penalized logistic regression, bootstrap, and ensemble learning), which were the short-term ensemble penalized logistic regression (EPLR) risk prediction model and the ensemble penalized long-term (EPLT) risk prediction model to estimate BC risk. The models were assessed based on calibration and discrimination, and following this assessment, they were externally validated in new study participants from 2017 to 2020.Results::The AUC values of the short-term EPLR risk prediction model were 0.800 for the internal validation and 0.751 for the external validation set. For the long-term EPLT risk prediction model, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.692 and 0.760 in internal and external validations, respectively. The net reclassification improvement index of the EPLT relative to the Gail and the Han Chinese Breast Cancer Prediction Model (HCBCP) models for external validation was 0.193 and 0.233, respectively, indicating that the EPLT model has higher classification accuracy.Conclusions::We developed the EPLR and EPLT models to screen populations with a high risk of developing BC. These can serve as useful tools to aid in risk-stratified screening and BC prevention.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of rivaroxaban combined with antiplatelet in ischemic stroke patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation and moderate or severe intracranial artery stenosis.Methods:The consecutive ischemic stroke patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation and moderate or severe intracranial artery stenosis admitted to Yantai Yuhuangding Hospital of Qingdao University from August 2019 to March 2022 were retrospectively included. According to the secondary prevention drugs, the patients were divided into rivaroxaban and rivaroxaban combined with antiplatelet treatment group. The basic characteristics of the two groups were compared. The primary outcome was the recurrence rate of stroke at 3 months, and the secondary outcome included the incidence of any bleeding event at 3 months, the all-cause mortality rate, the improvement rate of neurological function, and the good outcome rate. The good outcome was defined as the modified Rankin Scale ≤2 points at 3 months.Results:A total of 108 patients aged 70.72±8.08 years old were included in the study. There were 56 patients (51.9%) in the rivaroxaban group and 52 (48.1%) in the combined treatment group. In terms of primary outcome, the recurrence rate of stroke in the combined treatment group was significantly lower than that in the rivaroxaban group at 3 months (7.69% vs. 21.43%; P<0.05). In terms of secondary outcomes, the incidence of bleeding events in the combined treatment group at 3 months was significantly higher than that in the rivaroxaban group (26.92% vs. 7.14%; P<0.05), with one death event in each group. The rate of good outcome in the combined treatment group was significantly higher than that in the rivaroxaban group (75.00% vs. 51.79%; P=0.013). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that high National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score at admission was an independent risk factor for poor outcome (odds ratio 1.370, 95% confidence interval 1.057-1.776; P=0.018), while the rivaroxaban combined antiplatelet treatment was an independent protective factor for stroke recurrence (odds ratio 0.203, 95% confidence interval 0.054-0.758; P=0.018). Conclusion:After ischemic stroke in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation complicated with moderate and severe stenosis of intracranial artery, rivaroxaban combined with antiplatelet treatment can reduce the recurrence rate of stroke and improve the clinical outcome, but it may increase the risk of bleeding.

Objective: To perform an epidemiological survey of the first case with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection in Pinghu City of Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province on March 13, 2022, so as to provide insights into the management of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) epidemics. Methods: According to the requirements of the Protocol on Prevention and Control of COVID-19 (8th Edition), epidemiological investigations were performed among 39 cases with SARS-CoV-2 infections in Pinghu City from March 13 to 20, 2022. Cases' demographics, clinical symptoms, history of immunization and exposure were collected, and close contacts were identified. Pharyngeal swabs were sampled from infected cases for detection of SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid and whole-genome sequencing, and the source of infection and transmission route were investigated. Results: The index case for this COVID-19 epidemic was an imported case from Shanghai Municipality, who infected 6 persons via aerosol transmission when playing in the badminton venue of Pinghu National Fitness Center on March 9; subsequently, one of these infected cases infected another 18 persons when playing in the badminton venue of Jiadian Village Resident's Fitness Center in Zhapu Township on March 12. Sixteen confirmed cases were reported, and all cases were mild; another 23 asymptomatic cases were diagnosed, with no death reported. This epidemic occurred from March 11 to 20, with 3 generations of spread and a median incubation period of 3 days. The SARS-CoV-2 infected cases had a median age of 33.5 (interquartile range, 12.0) years and included 36 cases with a history of COVID-19 vaccination. There were 16 cases with fever, cough, runny nose and sore throat, and 13 cases with imaging features of pneumonia. The effective reproductive number (Rt) of the COVID-19 epidemic was 7.73 at early stage, and was less than 1 since March 21. Whole-genome sequencing identified Omicron BA.2 variant among 33 cases, which had high homology with the index cases. Conclusion This epidemic was a cluster of COVID-19 caused by imported Omicron BA.2 variant infection from Shanghai Municipality, and the COVID-19 transmission was mainly caused by indoor aerosols.
