Surgical treatment is one of the key approaches for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Regular postoperative follow-up is crucial for early detection and timely management of tumor recurrence, metastasis, or second primary tumors. A scientifically sound and reasonable follow-up strategy not only extends patient survival but also significantly improves quality of life, thereby enhancing overall prognosis. This consensus aims to build upon the previous version by incorporating the latest clinical research advancements and refining postoperative follow-up protocols for early-stage NSCLC patients based on different treatment modalities. It provides a scientific and practical reference for clinicians involved in the postoperative follow-up management of NSCLC. By optimizing follow-up strategies, this consensus seeks to promote the standardization and normalization of lung cancer diagnosis and treatment in China, helping more patients receive high-quality care and long-term management. Additionally, the release of this consensus is expected to provide insights for related research and clinical practice both domestically and internationally, driving continuous development and innovation in the field of postoperative management for NSCLC.

Pulmonary blast injury has become the main type of trauma in modern warfare, characterized by externally mild injuries but internally severe injuries, rapid disease progression, and a high rate of early death. The injury is complicated in clinical practice, often with multiple and compound injuries. Currently, there is a lack of effective protective materials, accurate injury detection instrument and portable monitoring and transportation equipment, standardized clinical treatment guidelines in various medical centers, and evidence-based guidelines at home and abroad, resulting in a high mortality in clinlcal practice. Therefore, the Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association and the Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized military and civilian experts in related fields such as thoracic surgery and traumatic surgery to jointly develop the Clinical treatment guideline for pulmonary blast injury ( version 2023) by combining evidence for effectiveness and clinical first-line treatment experience. This guideline provided 16 recommended opinions surrounding definition, characteristics, pre-hospital diagnosis and treatment, and in-hospital treatment of pulmonary blast injury, hoping to provide a basis for the clinical treatment in hospitals at different levels.

Resection is one of the most important treatments for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, and routine postoperative follow-up is an effective method for early detection and treatment of recurrent metastases, which can improve patients' quality of life and prognosis. This consensus aims to provide a reference for colleagues responsible for postoperative follow-up of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients in China, and further improve the standardization of the diagnosis and treatment of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

Resection is crucial for treating non-small cell lung cancer. Routine follow-up after surgery is an effective method for early detection and treatment of tumor recurrence and metastasis or the second primary tumor, which can improve the quality of life of patients and their prognosis. This consensus aims to provide a reference for colleagues responsible for postoperative follow-up of non-small cell lung cancer patients in China, and further improve the standardization of lung cancer diagnosis and treatment.

OBJECTIVE: To propose a probabilistic neural network classification method optimized by simulated annealing algorithm (SA-PNN) to discriminate lung cancer and adjacent normal tissues based on permittivity. METHODS: The permittivity of lung tumors and the adjacent normal tissues was measured by an open-ended coaxial probe, and the statistical dependency (SD) algorithm was used for frequency screening.The permittivity associated with the selected frequency points was taken as the characteristic variable, and SA-PNN was used to discriminate lung cancer and the adjacent normal tissues. RESULTS: Three frequency points, namely 984 MHz, 2724 MHz and 2723 MHz, were selected by SD algorithm.SA-PNN was used to discriminate 200 samples with the permittivity at the 3 frequency points as the characteristic variable.After 10-fold cross-validation, the final discrimination accuracy was 92.50%, the sensitivity was 90.65%, and the specificity was 94.62%. CONCLUSIONS Compared with the traditional probabilistic neural network, BP neural network, RBF neural network and the classification discriminant analysis function (Classify) in MATLAB, the proposed SA-PNN has higher accuracy, sensitivity and specificity for discriminating lung cancer and the adjacent normal tissues based on permittivity.

Objective To assess the effect of thoracoscopic surgery under laryngeal mask anesthesia and explore the nursing strategies. Methods Thirty-five patients from April to December in 2014 undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) were given intubation anesthesia and another thirty-five ones undergoing the same surgery in 2015 received laryngeal mask anesthesia. The two groups were compared in terms of surgery conditions, surgery complication and ambulation time. Results No significant differences were found in surgery time or blood loss between two groups (P>0.05). The postoperative waking time in the mask anesthesia group was significantly shorter than that of the intubation anesthesia group (P<0.05), and ambulation time was significantly shortened (P<0.05). The rates of throat discomfort, hoarseness and gastrointestinal reactions were significantly lower. Conclusions Laryngeal mask anesthesia used in small thoracoscopic surgery for airway management is safe and feasible. Combined with training in respiration and limb function, better analgesia and nursing, it can keep away complications related to intubation anesthesia, shorten hospital stay and accelerate postoperative rehabilitation.

Objective To investigate the influence of benzopyrene on extracellular matrix(ECM) protein deposition of human airway smooth muscle cells(HASMC) and the related pathway mechanism.Methods HASMC were primarily cultured and the 2-6 generations cells were applied in this experiment.The expression amount of ECM gene and protein was detected by real time PCR and Western Blot the phosphorylation level was analyzed by using the Western Blot method.Results Benzopyrene could to increase the expression of HASMC collagen Ⅰ α1 protein (P＜0.01) and ECM protein (including collagen Ⅰ α1,versican,fibronectin,laminin α2) mRNA(P＜0.05).Benzopyrene could induce the rapid increase of ERK1/2 phosphorylation level (P＜0.01).Furthermore,the ERK pathway inhibitor PD98059 could significantly inhibit the increase of benzopyrene-induced collagen Ⅰ α1 (P＜0.01)and ECM protein(including collagen Ⅰ α1,versican,fibronectin,laminin α2) mRNA expression(P＜0.01).Conclusion Benzopyrene induces the ECM protein deposition of HASMC by activating the ERK1/2 pathway,blocking the ERK1/2 signal pathway can inhibit the benzopyrene-induced airway remodeling.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and safety of thoracoscopic radical resection of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)patients under laryngeal mask anesthesia. Methods A total of 40 patients with NSCLC from March to August 2016 in NanFang Hospital of Southern Medical University were recruited and divided into two groups,the laryngeal mask anesthesia(n=20)and the intubation anesthesia group(n=20). Patients from two groups were followed up. Post-operativerecovery ,systemic inflammation response and quality of life were assessed. Results There was no significant difference between the laryngeal mask anesthesia and the intubation anesthesia group in the operation time ,the lowest oxygen saturation ,the maximum end-tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure and the surgical field and the satisfaction of anesthesia and blood loss. Post-operative time to eat ,postoperative use of antibiotics , postoperative hospital stay and drainage time were much shorter in the laryngeal mask anesthesia group ,which also had lowerlevel of white blood cells ,neutrophils and C-reactive protein. Patients with NSCLC undergoing laryngeal mask anesthesia had much higher scores in the quality of life evaluation. Conclusion Thoracoscopic radical resectionunder laryngeal mask anesthesia is safe and feasible for NSCLC patients. It has advantages in reducing the systemic inflammatory response ,accelerating the recovery rate and improving postoperative life quality.

Objective To investigate the impact of surgical resection on patients with Ⅱ-Ⅲ A stage small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC). Method Data of 61 in-patients who diagnosed as Ⅱ-ⅢA stage SCLC from Jan 1st 2009 to Feb 1st 2014 were analyzed. 23 patients underwent surgical resections were enrolled as the treatment group, while 38 patients without surgical resection were enrolled as the control group. Disease progression was confirmed by monthly examination. The grouping is balanced by propensity score match. The progression-free survival (PFS) time and overall survival(OS) were analyzed with Kaplan-Meier survival method and Cox regression is applied to analyze the covariates. Fisher's exact test was applied to compare one-year survival rate and two-year survival rate. Results The PFS and OS of the treatment group is longer than that of the control group (P < 0.05). Both one-year and two-year survival rates of the treatment group outnumber those of the control group (P < 0.05). Cox regression indicates that surgical resection is an independent prognostic factor (P < 0.05). Conclusion Surgical resection on tolerable patients with stage Ⅱ-Ⅲ A small-cell lung carcinoma is effective on improving the progression-free survival time,one-year and two-year survival rates,and also shows a propensity of a higher overall survival time.
