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.

This article combined the pathogenic characteristics of "latent wind" with the theory of collateral diseases to clarify the pathological features of tumor blood vessels， including their active proliferation， high permeabi-lity， and promotion of metastasis. The theory framework of "latent wind in collaterals" as the tumor mechanism was proposed， which suggests that at the site of tumor lesions， the collaterals inherit the nature of latent wind to grow excessively， adopt an open and discharge nature to leak essence， and tumor toxins， characterized by their rapid movement and frequent changes， spread and metastasize， driving the progression of malignant tumors. Focusing on the fundamental pathogenesis of "latent wind in collaterals"， specific clinical treatment principles and methods centered on treating wind are proposed， including regulating qi and dispelling wind， clearing heat and extinguishing wind， unblocking collaterals and expelling wind， and reinforcing healthy qi to calm wind， so as to provide references for enhancing the precision of traditional Chinese medicine in treating malignant tumors.

Objective To investigate the effect of ropivacaine on biological behavior of gastric cancer BGC-823 cells and AMP activated protein kinase(AMPK)/nuclear factor E2-related factor 2(Nrf2)signaling path-way.Methods Gastric cancer BGC-823 cells were cultured in vitro.When BGC-823 cells were cultured to log-arithmic growth phase,they were divided into control group(routine culture),cisplatin group(medium con-taining 5 mg/L cisplatin),and low-level(medium containing 25 mg/L ropivacaine),medium-level(medium containing 50 mg/L ropivacaine),and high-level(medium containing 100 mg/L ropivacaine)ropivacaine groups.The cells were cultured for 48 h.Cell counting kit-8(CCK-8)was used to detect the survival rate of BGC-823 cells.Transwell chamber assay was used to detect the invasion ability of BGC-823 cells.The apopto-sis rate of BGC-823 cells was detected by flow cytometry.The mRNA levels of AMPK and Nrf2 in BGC-823 cells were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(qPCR).The protein levels of AMPK and Nrf2 in BGC-823 cells were detected by Western blot.Results Compared with the control group,the survival rate,invasion number,AMPK and Nrf2 mRNA and protein levels of BGC-823 cells in the cisplatin group and the low-level,medium-level and high-level ropivacaine groups were decreased(P＜0.05),while the apoptosis rate was increased(P＜0.05).Compared with the cisplatin group,the survival rate,invasion number,AMPK and Nrf2 mRNA and protein levels of BGC-823 cells in the low-level,medium-level and high-level ropivacaine groups were increased(P＜0.05),while the apoptosis rate was decreased(P＜0.05).Compared with the low-level ropivacaine group,the survival rate,invasion number,AMPK,Nrf2 mRNA and protein levels of BGC-823 cells in the medium-level and high-level ropivacaine groups were decreased in oder(P＜0.05),while the apop-tosis rate was increased in oder(P＜0.05).Conclusion Ropivacaine could inhibit the survival and invasion of BGC-823 cells and promote the apoptosis of BGC-823 cells,which may be related to the inhibition of AMPK/Nrf2 signaling pathway.

Aim To develop and validate a dynamic nomogram to predict the risk of no-reflow phenomenon(NRP)after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STE-MI)by constructing HALP based on haemoglobin(Hb),albumin(Alb),lymphocytes(LYM),and platelets(PLT).Methods A retrospective analysis of 449 STEMI patients admitted to Nanyang Central Hospital from January 2022 to Janu-ary 2024 was divided into 145 cases in the NRP group and 304 cases in the normal reflow group according to whether the patients developed NRP after surgery.HALP was calculated based on Hb,Alb,LYM and PLT observations.Independ-ent influences on NRP risk were determined by multivariate Logistic regression analysis.Dynamic nomogram of NRP risk after PCI in STEMI patients were developed using the R language correlation software package.Results The incidence of NRP was 32.3％(145/449)among 449 patients with NRP.The HALP of patients in the NRP group was lower than that of patients in the normal reflow group(P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of HALP for diagno-sis of NRP was 0.880(0.847-0.909),and the Kappa coefficient of its optimal cutoff value ≤3.04 versus patients with accurate diagnosis of NRP was 0.612.The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age,diabetes mellitus,and high sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP)were independent risk factors for NRP after PCI in STEMI pa-tients(P＜0.05),and left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)and HALP were independent protective factors(P＜0.05).A dynamic nomogram(https://xz0311.shinyapps.io/DynNamicNRP/)based on HALP combined with age,di-abetes,LVEF,and hs-CRP was effective in predicting the risk of post-PCI NRP in STEM1 patients.Conclusion HALP is more effective than traditional risk factors in predicting NRP risk in STEMI patients after PCI,and the dynamic nomogram developed based on HALP will help develop personalized treatment strategies for patients with high NRP risk.

We aimed to study the articles and applied prescriptions of Moutan Cortex in Synopsis of theGolden Chamber, summarize and analyze its laws on the disease location and disease nature, and analyze its compatibility, dosage and processing laws. Based on the knowledge of Moutan Cortex by Zhongjing, we found that the kidney, bladder, uterus and intestine involved in Zhongjing's application of peony bark prescription, which belongs to the disease of "lower abdomen" in Huangdi Nei Jing. And the prescription of Moutan Cortex mainly focused on the syndromes of "depression" and "blood stasis", which are characterised by five kinds: water depression, dampness depression, stasis-heat, blood stasis and ecchymosis. and the compatibility rule of Zhongjing application of Moutan Cortex is analyzed accordingly. In addition, the study found that as the downward movement of the disease position, the amount of Moutan Cortex increased, and the processing of the problem followed the principle of "if disease is slow onset, the Moutan Cortex heart should be removed, but if disease is acute, Moutan Cortex heart should be kept". Finally, we combined modern clinical application of Moutan Cortex with modern pharmacological research, in order to expand the scope of clinical application of Moutan Cortex and "the same treatment of different diseases" to provide theoretical guidance.

The overall diagnostic rate of the two systems was 84.96% (95%CI 62.00%-95.00%), sensitivity for malignancy was 81.79%(95%CI 43.00%-96.00%), the mean maximum diameter of the nodules was 16.22 mm (95%CI 10.98-21.47), the mean procedure time was 61.86 min (95%CI 46.18-77.54) and the rate of complications occurred was 4.76% (95%CI 2.00%-15.00%). There was no statistical difference in the outcomes between the two systems. Conclusion     Robotic bronchoscope provides a high efficacy and safety in biopsy of pulmonary nodules, and has a broad application prospect for pulmonary nodules diagnosis.

Chest trauma is one of the most common injuries. Venous thromboembolism (VTE) as a common complication of chest trauma seriously affects the quality of patients′ life and even leads to death. Although there are some consensus and guidelines on the prevention and treatment of VTE at home and abroad, the current literatures lack specificity considering the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of VTE in patients with chest trauma have their own characteristics, especially for those with blunt trauma. Accordingly, China Chest Injury Research Society and editorial board of Chinese Journal of Traumatology organized relevant domestic experts to jointly formulate the Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of chest trauma venous thromboembolism associated with chest trauma (2022 version). This consensus provides expert recommendations of different levels as academic guidance in terms of the characteristics, clinical manifestations, risk assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of chest trauma-related VTE, so as to offer a reference for clinical application.

Objective:To explore the clinical significance of recurrent laryngeal nerve inlet zone(RLNIZ) lymph node metastasis in papillary thyroid cancer(PTC).Methods:The clinical data of the clinicopathologic characteristics of 738 cases with papillary thyroid cancer at our centers from Jul 2017 to Jun 2018 was retrospectively reviewed. 108 cases with RLNIZ lymph node dissection for pathological examination were included. The relationship between metastasis of RLNIZ lymph node and clinicopathologic characteristics was analyzed.Results:RLNIZ lymph node was detected in 12.3%(91/738)cases, the mean lymph node number in RLNIZ was 1.5±0.7, and 30.8%(28/91) cases suffered RLNIZ lymph node metastasis. RLNIZ lymph node metastasis(LNM) is associated with tumor size( P=0.028), capsular invasion( P=0.019), No. of central compartment LNM( P<0.001) and lateral neck LNM( P<0.001). No. of central compartment LNM was found to be the independent risk factor of RLNIZ lymph node metastasis. The incidence of dysphagia and inferior parathyroid damage was 0.9%(1/108)respectively. Conclusions:RLNIZ lymph node metastasis is common among PTC patients , therefore, RLNIZ lymph node should be routinely removed especially in patients with tumor size over 1cm、suspected capsular invasion and lateral neck lymph node metastasis confirmed by preoperative imaging examination.
