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 compare the diagnostic accuracy of three imaging modalities, inlducing CT urography (CTU), contrast-enhanced MRI (CE-MRI), and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in the qualitative diagnosis of renal space-occupying lesions. [Methods] A retrospective analysis was performed on 542 patients with renal lesions confirmed by surgical pathology in our hospital during Jan.2019 and May 2024.The diagnostic results of CTU, CE-MRI and CEUS were compared and analyzed based on the patients' clinical and pathological data. [Results] The diagnostic accuracy rate of CTU, CE-MRI and CEUS were 84.50%, 83.14% and 86.14%, respectively.For the 161 patients who underwent all three examinations, CEUS was significantly more accurate than CTU (84.16% vs. 77.02%, P=0.018), while there was no significant difference between CTU or CEUS and CE-MRI (79.81%) (P>0.05). Further analysis found that for lesions ≤4 cm, the accuracy of the three examinations was as follows: CEUS=CTU 79.55%, CE-MRI 76.14%, with no significant difference (P>0.05). However, for lesions >4 cm, CEUS ranked the first, followed by CE-MRI and CTU (89.73% vs. 84.25% vs. 73.97%), and CEUS and CE-MRI were better than CTU (P<0.05). Additionally, for the diagnosis of clear cell renal carcinoma and benign renal space-occupying lesions, there was no statistically significant difference among the three imaging modalities (P>0.05), while for the qualitative diagnosis of non-clear cell renal carcinoma, CEUS ranked the first, followed by CE-MRI and CTU (83.87% vs. 74.19% vs. 56.45%), and CE-MRI and CEUS were better than CTU (P<0.05). [Conclusion] All of them have important diagnostic value, and the appropriate selection should be based on patients' specifc conditions.CEUS and CE-MRI are more accurate in the qualitative diagnosis of renal space-occupying lesions than CTU, especially for large lesions and non-clear cell carcinoma.

AIM: To investigate the research status and hotspots in the field of ocular trauma over the past two decades using bibliometric software CiteSpace and VOSviewer.METHODS: A bibliometric study. Relevant literature on ocular trauma published in the past 20 a was retrieved from the CNKI database and Web of Science Core Collection in June 2025. EndNote X9 was used for literature management and verification. Microsoft Office Excel 2019 was employed for data management and statistics, with graphical representations created for frequency data. CiteSpace and VOSviewer were utilized to construct and analyze visual maps of authors, institutions, countries/regions, journals, and keywords.RESULTS: A total of 3 437 valid articles were included(911 in Chinese, 2 526 in English). English publications grew at an average annual rate of 12.7%(peak: 289 articles in 2021), while Chinese articles decreased from 31.2% in 2005(peak: 149 articles)to 6.3% in 2024. Chinese scholars showed an early surge in output but a subsequent declining trend, necessitating enhanced sustained research investment and translational outcomes. The United States(682 articles), China(272 articles), and India(206 articles)formed a core collaborative triangle, with a transnational collaboration rate of 68.2%. Six author clusters(e.g., Yan Hua/Zhang Maonian, et al.)demonstrated strong intra-group collaboration but minimal inter-group cooperation. Analysis of high-frequency keywords and burst terms revealed six global research hotspots: 1)ocular trauma score and minimally invasive vitrectomy; 2)optical coherence tomography(OCT)/ultrasound biomicroscopy(UBM)-guided diagnosis and management of intraocular foreign bodies; 3)amniotic membrane transplantation for chemical injury repair; 4)multimodal assessment of corneal perforation injuries; 5)inflammatory indicators for diagnosing endophthalmitis as a traumatic complication; 6)family-based interventions for preventing and controlling pediatric ocular trauma. Trends indicate a shift in research focus from emergency care toward artificial substitutes and full-cycle nursing rehabilitation.CONCLUSION: Differences in research outputs between China and other countries reflect imbalances in prevention policies and medical resource allocation. China should strengthen sustained investment and overcome collaboration barriers to jointly advance ocular trauma research toward full-cycle precision management.

This paper presents an automatic acquisition and analytic procedure of acupuncture manipulation based on optical navigation, aiming at solving the shortcomings of existing acquisition methods of acupuncture manipulation. An acquisition holder installed at the handle tail of filiform needle was designed to display the movement trajectory of the needle during acupuncture delivery by collecting the movement trajectory of holder. The 3-month old male Bama miniature pig was selected as the experimental subject, and 6 points, "Bojian" "Qiangfeng" "Housanli" "Xiaokua" "Huiyang" (BL35) and "Baihui" (GV20), were selected during acupuncture manipulation. The optical navigation system was used to collect the real-time data, and these data were per-processed and analyzed using mean filtering and Fourier transform. The acupuncture procedure was divided into 3 stages, inserting, lifting-thrusting, and twisting. The results showed that the accuracy was 96.3% at lifting-thrusting stage, and that was 100.0% at twisting stage. The decomposition effect of the entire procedure was satisfactory. This study provides a new approach to the quantitative analysis of acupuncture manipulation. In the future, it needs to further optimize the algorithm and expand the sample size so as to improve the accuracy of this analytic technique.

Objective To investigate the basic situation and occupational health conditions of nuclear medicine radiation workers in Jiangsu Province based on the research protocol developed by the Institute of Radiation Medicine, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences for the nationwide study on the health effects of nuclear medicine radiation in China, understand the impact of occupational radiation on the physical health of nuclear medicine radiation workers, and provide a basis for improving the occupational protection of nuclear medicine radiation workers and reducing the risk of occupational radiation-related health issues. Methods A census approach was used to collect general data and occupational health information of nuclear medicine radiation workers in Jiangsu Province. The analysis focused on the abnormalities in physical examination indicators among radiation workers of different genders, ages, and working years to evaluate the health effects of occupational radiation exposure. Results The occupational health examination data of 472 nuclear medicine radiation workers were collected from 76 medical institutions in Jiangsu Province. The results showed that the detection rate of abnormal hypothyroidism in female workers (8.90%) was higher than that in male workers (2.54%) (P=0.028). With increasing working years, the detection rates of cataract and continuous decrease in white blood cell count increased (P＜0.001). The multivariate logistic regression identified working years as a risk factor for cataract and continuous decrease in white blood cell count (OR=1.59, 95%CI=1.40-3.35, P=0.0003; OR=4.15, 95%CI=3.11-29.91, P=0.0001). In addition, working years was also a risk factor for hypertension, fatty liver, and tumor (OR=2.28, 95%CI=1.51-3.47, P=8.76 × 10⁻⁵; OR=1.69, 95%CI=1.10-2.58, P=0.0145; OR=2.04, 95%CI=1.00-4.16, P=0.0469). Conclusion The study found that working in nuclear medicine could increase the risk of various radiation-related diseases, and the risk is influenced by factors such as working years.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) and endoscopic treatment for liver cirrhosis with esophageal gastric variceal bleeding (EGVB) and portal vein thrombosis (PVT).Methods:A total of 183 liver cirrhosis patients with EGVB and PVT in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital, the Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School and the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University were selected from January 2017 to December 2019, and 66 patients were assigned to the endoscopic group (received endoscopi treatment) and 117 the TIPS group (received TIPS treatment). Propensity score matching was performed according to the 1∶1 ratio, yielding 58 patients in each group for analysis, with a median follow-up time of 36 months in both groups. Postoperative survival, postoperative rebleeding rate, and postoperative hepatic encephalopathy incidence were assessed using Kaplan-Meier survival curves.Results:During the follow-up, the rebleeding rate in the endoscopic group was significantly higher [39.7% (23/58) VS 17.2% (10/58), P=0.005], and the TIPS group had a higher incidence of postoperative hepatic encephalopathy [29.3% (17/58) VS 13.8% (8/58), P=0.048], and no significant difference in survival rate was observed between the two groups [74.1% (43/58) VS 75.9% (44/58), P=0.769]. In the subgroup analysis of mild degree of PVT, there was no significant difference in survival [88.0% (22/25) VS 72.0% (18/25), P=0.164], rebleeding rate [28.0% (7/25) VS 12.0% (3/25), P=0.164], or incidence of hepatic encephalopathy [8.0% (2/25) VS 20.0% (5/25), P=0.202] between the endoscopic group and the TIPS group. In the subgroup analysis of severe degree of PVT, the rebleeding rate in the endoscopic group was significantly higher than that in the TIPS group [48.5% (16/33) VS 21.2% (7/33), P=0.010], while there was no significant difference in the incidence of hepatic encephalopathy [18.2% (6/33) VS 36.4% (12/33), P=0.133], or the survival rate [63.6% (21/33) VS 78.8% (26/33), P=0.154]. Conclusion:For liver cirrhosis patients with mild PVT and EGVB, combining endoscopic therapy with anticoagulation may be superior to TIPS. Conversely, in patients with severe PVT, TIPS may be a more suitable option due to a significantly reduced rebleeding risk without a notable increase in hepatic encephalopathy incidence.

Gastric cancer(GC)is one of the most common malignancies worldwide.In our country,the majority of patients are diagnosed with GC at alocally advanced stage.Fortunately,clinical studies have demonstrated that minimally invasive radical gastrectomy,particularly laparoscopic surgery,is just as effective as traditional open surgery in terms of both short-and long-term outcomes.Consequently,minim-ally invasive surgery has become the primary surgical approach for patients with locally advanced gastric cancer(LAGC).Advancements in surgical techniques and technologies are enabling even more precise and minimally invasive approaches to GC surgery.Based on recent do-mestic and international studies,this study aimed to review and elaborate on the development of minimally invasive surgery for LAGC.
