Drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) is used for directly visualizing sites of obstruction among patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Owing to the scarcity of data, there is still no consensus on the anesthetic regimen for conducting pediatric DISE.

This paper presents a 5-year-old patient who underwent DISE using an opioid-sparing regimen with dexmedetomidine and propofol infusion.

Simultaneous dexmedetomidine and propofol infusion is a promising opioid-sparing regimen for pediatric DISE.

Achondroplasia (ACH) is a common inherited skeletal dysplasia (inherited dwarfism) that compromises quality of life across the lifespan. In 2021, vosoritide became the first approved precision therapy for ACH and is now available in more than 40 countries. Compared with prior symptomatic measures, vosoritide has demonstrated favorable efficacy and a reassuring safety profile. Nevertheless, existing international ACH guidelines largely emphasize complication management and symptomatic care, and there is no unified consensus on pharmacologic therapy. To address this gap, an international expert group developed the International Consensus Guidelines for the Implementation and Monitoring of Vosoritide Therapy in Patients with Achondroplasia providing systematic recommendations that span the continuum of care - from initial patient contact and pre-treatment assessment to medication counseling, injection training, and long-term outcome monitoring. These recommendations complement and refine current management and nursing protocols for individuals with ACH and offer practical guidance for clinicians across diverse regions. This article highlights key elements of the guideline to provide evidence-based support and clinical direction for healthcare professionals in China treating children with ACH using vosoritide.

To enhance medication safety and rational use, a multidisciplinary expert panel from the Yangtze River Delta region-comprising specialists in pharmacy, clinical medicine, healthcare administration, and evidence-based medicine-was convened to develop this consensus through multiple rounds of Delphi consultation. A management system for the off-label use of novel antineoplastic agents was established, incorporating a tiered management process and a regional information sharing platform. Standardized procedures were implemented to regulate the applications, review, documentation, and dynamic adjustment of off-label use. The regional platform centralizes the collection and evaluation of evidence for off-label usage, facilitating consistent and homogeneous manage-ment across healthcare institutions. The tiered management process and information sharing platform established herein are intended to serve as a practical reference for standardizing the management of off-label use of novel antineoplastic agents in medical institutions.

The mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (MET) gene, located on human chromosome 7, plays a crucial role in the regulation of physiological processes such as cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and angiogenesis. The MET gene is one of the key drivers in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), with various forms of abnormalities including MET exon 14 (METex14) skipping mutations, MET gene amplification, MET fusions, MET protein overexpression, MET activating mutations and etc. With an increasing understanding of the mechanisms underlying MET abnormalities, therapeutic strategies targeting these abnormalities have gained significant attention, and numerous studies have confirmed that NSCLC patients with MET abnormalities can derive substantial benefits from such treatments. Lung Cancer Specialty Committee of Chinese Elderly Health Care Association organized a panel of experts to provide professional recommendations on current clinical issues in the diagnosis and treatment of MET-aberrant NSCLC, combining clinical practice experiences and evidence-based medical evidences. The "Expert Consensus on Diagnosis and Treatment of NSCLC with MET Abnormalities (2025 Version)" has been formulated to provide standardized guidances for clinical practice in China, with the aim of optimizing the treatment outcomes.

The tertiary lymphoid structure (TLS) plays a crucial role in the tumor microenvironment, influencing tumor development and progression. As an emerging biomarker for predicting the prognosis and treatment response in cancer patients, TLS has received increasing attention. However, there is currently a lack of standardized evaluation criteria for TLS, and significant differences exist in TLS across different tumor tissues. This poses challenges for the clinical application of this biomarker in translation. To meet the clinical diagnosis and treatment needs of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), this consensus focuses on the definition, clinical significance, testing components, and assessment methods of TLS in NSCLC. Combining relevant research and Chinese clinical practice, it provides standardized and normalized suggestions for the clinical assessment and application of TLS, so as to improve the understanding of TLS among clinicians and pathologists, and provide a reference basis for the clinical application of the detection of TLS in NSCLC.

The application of small molecule targeted drugs for lung cancer has significantly improved the survival of lung cancer patients. However, these drugs have a wide variety of types, fast development and market launch of new drugs, complex adverse reactions, and are mostly used at home, which increases the risk of irrational drug use. At the same time, insufficient monitoring of efficacy and safety is also prone to occur, ultimately affecting treatment outcomes. This consensus focuses on 43 small molecule targeted drugs or combinations for lung cancer, providing standardized recommendations for rational drug use and monitoring of efficacy/adverse reactions in clinical practice. The recommendations are regarding drug selection, dosage adjustment, efficacy monitoring, adverse reaction monitoring, and improvement of patient compliance. This consensus aims to improve the rational use and efficacy/safety monitoring quality of small molecule targeted drugs for lung cancer, ensure the effectiveness and safety of drug treatment, prolong the survival of lung cancer patients and improve their quality of life.

With the advancement of surgical treatment for gastric cancer surgery, the preservation of gastric function to reduce the post-operative impacts on patients' quality of life, while ensuring effective surgical outcomes, have become both patients' expectations and the pursuit of surgeons. The emergence of the concept of function-preserving gastrectomy (FPG) marks the entry of surgical treatment of gastric cancer into a more personalized and precise era. The "Chinese expert consensus on function - preserving gastrectomy for gastric cancer(2021 edition)" was the first systematic effort to define FPG, outlining its indications and surgical approaches. In recent years, with the rapid development of surgical technologies, such as functional visualization, lymph node tracing, vascular navigation, and multi-omics imaging artificial intelligence (AI), the concept and practice of FPG have continued to evolve. Therefore, led by the the Gastrointestinal Surgery Branch, Surgery Branch, Chinese Medical Association (CMA) with Chinese Society of Surgical Oncology of Chinese Medical Doctor Association (CMDA), Chinese Society of Upper Gastrointestinal Surgeon of CMDA, Stomach and Intestines Committee of Chinese Anticancer Association, and the Gastric Cancer Committee of the Chinese Anticancer Association, a group of experts has come together to update and refine the consensus based on domestic and international literature, as well as recent researches and clinical practice. The definition of FPG remains consistent with the 2021 edition, emphasizing the goal of achieving radical resection for early gastric cancer while minimizing the scope of surgery, selecting appropriate reconstruction methods, and preserving as much gastric function as possible. The main surgical techniques include those that reduce the extent of surgery (such as pylorus-preserving gastrectomy, segmental gastrectomy, local gastric resection, and endoscopic resection), proximal gastrectomy (PG), and distal gastrectomy with vagus nerve preservation. After PG, the surgical reconstruction of the digestive tract involves procedures such as anastomosis between the distal remnant stomach and esophagus, esophagus-tube stomach anastomosis, double tract reconstruction (DTR), interposition jejunostomy, side to side gastroesophagostomy (SOFY), and double flap gastroesophagostomy (Kamikawa anastomosis). In recent years, new anti-reflux techniques have emerged, such as the tube-shaped stomach "Giraffe anastomosis", modified SOFY anastomosis, single flap gastroesophagostomy, arch-shaped anastomosis, and tunnel anastomosis. Functional assessment after FPG primarily includes evaluating remnant gastric function, function-related complications, post-operative nutritional status, and quality of life. This updated consensus is expected to standardize the practice of FPG, provide more personalized surgical treatment options for patients with gastric cancer, and further improve their post-operative quality of life.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignant tumors in China, ranking second in morbidity and fourth in mortality. Metastasis and recurrence are the leading causes of patient death, and the peritoneum is a frequent site of metastasis in CRC, second only to liver and lung metastases. However, the prognosis of peritoneal metastasis is much worse than hepatic and pulmonary metastasis. CRC peritoneal metastasis is challenging early diagnosis, presents with severe symptoms, and has a poor prognosis. It is crucial to emphasize standardized diagnosis and treatment for CRC peritoneal metastasis to improve patients' outcome and enhance their quality of life. This consensus, based on evidence-based medical evidence, revised the "Chinese Expert Consensus on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Colorectal Cancer Peritoneal Metastasis (2022 edition)" and reached a preliminary consensus on the definition, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of CRC peritoneal metastasis, with the aim of guiding and standardizing the diagnosis and treatment of CRC peritoneal metastasis, developing reasonable and effective comprehensive treatment plans, prolonging survival time and improving quality of life for CRC peritoneal metastasis patients, thereby raising the overall level of diagnosis and treatment for CRC in China.

With the development of surgical techniques, adjuvant therapy and neoadjuvant therapy, the survival time of rectal cancer patients after surgery has been significantly improved, but organ dysfunction is still an important problem affecting the quality of life of patients after surgery. With the continuous deepening of clinical research and practice and the updating of relevant theories, more detailed and reliable evidence-based medical evidence has been accumulated in the field of pelvic organ function protection in rectal cancer surgery, and has been continuously verified in the clinical real world at home and abroad. In order to further improve the awareness of domestic physicians on the protection of organ function during the treatment of rectal cancer, standardize the evaluation methods and surgical methods, reduce the incidence of organ dysfunction, and thus improve the quality of life of patients, Society of Colon & Rectal Surgeons of Chinese College of Surgeons of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Section of Colorectal Surgery of Branch of Surgery of Chinese Medical Association, National Health Commission Capacity Building and Continuing Education Center Colorectal Surgery Committee, and Colorectal and Anal Function Surgeons Committee of China Sexology Association organized the discussion among relevant experts. On the basis of the 2021 edition of the Chinese Expert Consensus on the Protection of Pelvic Organ Function in Rectal Cancer Surgery, the recent evidence-based medical evidence was analyzed and summarized, and the definition, risk factors, evaluation methods, prevention and other issues of organ dysfunction after rectal cancer surgery were analyzed with reference to relevant domestic and foreign studies and combined with clinical practice. Proposed the diagnosis, evaluation and treatment of pelvic organ dysfunction in rectal cancer surgery, and finally formed the "Chinese expert Consensus on the protection of pelvic organ function in rectal cancer surgery (version 2025)".
