The precise localization of pulmonary nodules has become an important technical key point in the treatment of pulmonary nodules by thoracoscopic surgery, which is a guarantee for safe margin and avoiding removal of too much normal lung parenchyma. With the development of medical technology and equipment, the methods of locating pulmonary nodules are also becoming less trauma and convenience. There are currently a number of methods applied to the preoperative or intraoperative localization of pulmonary nodules, including preoperative percutaneous puncture localization, preoperative transbronchial localization, intraoperative palpation localization, intraoperative ultrasound localization, and localization according to anatomy. The most appropriate localization method should be selected according to the location of the nodule, available equipment, and surgeon鈥檚 experience. According to the published literatures, we have sorted out a variety of different theories and methods of localization of pulmonary nodules in this article, summarizing their advantages and disadvantages for references.

Most chemical medicines have polymorphs. The difference of medicine polymorphs in physicochemical properties directly affects the stability, efficacy, and safety of solid medicine products. Polymorphs is incomparably important to pharmaceutical chemistry, manufacturing, and control. Meantime polymorphs is a key factor for the quality of high-end drug and formulations. Polymorph prediction technology can effectively guide screening of trial experiments, and reduce the risk of missing stable crystal form in the traditional experiment. Polymorph prediction technology was firstly based on theoretical calculations such as quantum mechanics and computational chemistry, and then was developed by the key technology of machine learning using the artificial intelligence. Nowadays, the popular trend is to combine the advantages of theoretical calculation and machine learning to jointly predict crystal structure. Recently, predicting medicine polymorphs has still been a challenging problem. It is expected to learn from and integrate existing technologies to predict medicine polymorphs more accurately and efficiently.

Talents are the main force for the development of traditional Chinese medicine（TCM）， and the construction of TCM talents and the reformation of talent evaluation system are essential to promote the inheritance and innovation of TCM. At present， we are still exploring and developing in the fields of the formulation， implementation and evaluation indicators of TCM talent evaluation system. However， there are shortcomings and difficulties. For instance， insufficient stratification in the evaluation， excessive emphasis on the quantity of achievements， neglecting the quality of the achievements and the actual contribution， imperfect assessment indicators， and the weak characteristics of TCM. Therefore， national ministries and commissions have jointly issued a document requesting to break the four only and set a new standard， in order to promote the construction of a scientific and technological talent evaluation system oriented by innovation value， ability and contribution. For the evaluation of TCM clinical talents， China Association for Science and Technology commissioned China Association of Chinese Medicine to build the China Clinical Cases Library of TCM（CCCL-TCM）， which aims at collecting the most authoritative and representative TCM clinical cases and exploring the advantages of applying clinical cases as masterpiece of achievement in TCM clinical talents evaluation. CCCL-TCM can promote the construction of a talent evaluation system that is more in line with the development characteristics of TCM industry， and to carry out relevant pilot in TCM colleges and institutions across the country in order to promote the reformation of TCM talent evaluation system.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of Lycii Fructus-Chrysanthemi Flos herbal pair on the occurrence and progres-sion of light source-induced myopia in guinea pigs.METHODS The three-band fluorescent lamp was used to irradiate guinea pigs to establish a model of light source-induced myopia.Lycii Fructus-Chrysanthemi Flos herbal pair extract was added in the feed to raise guinea pigs.Ophthalmic A-type ultrasonic measuring instrument was used to detect the eye axis.HE staining was used to observe pathological damage to the retina of the guinea pigs.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to detect dopamine(DA)and melatonin(MT)levels in guinea pig retinas,and transcriptomic analysis and other methods were used to explore the effects of Lycii Fructus-Chrysanthemi Flos on light-induced myopia in guinea pigs.RESULTS After 6 weeks,compared with the normal group,the eye axis of model group guinea pigs increased significantly(P<0.01),thus,the myopia model was successfully established.Lycii Fruc-tus-Chrysanthemi Flos herbal pair extract could effectively slow down the thickening of the lens and the deepening of the vitreous cavi-ty,thereby delaying the overgrowth of the eye axis in model guinea pigs.The retinal tissue of guinea pigs in the model group became thinner,the thickness and number of cells in the inner and outer nuclear layer of the retina were significantly reduced,the ganglion nu-clei were sparse,the vacuolization of the ganglion cell layer was obvious.Lycii Fructus-Chrysanthemi Flos extract could protect retinal cells.The thickness and cell number of the retinal inner nuclear layer and outer nuclear layer were increased,and ganglion cell nuclei were increased.ELISA assay showed that the concentrations of DA and MT in the retina of model group guinea pigs were significantly reduced(P<0.05),and the medium and high doses of Lycii Fructus-Chrysanthemi Flos herbal pair extract could effectively increase the concentration of dopamine in the retina and serum of guinea pigs in the model group(P<0.01,P<0.001).The differential genes screened by eye transcriptomics analysis were mainly enriched in PPAR signals pathway,collagen-containing extracellular matrix and other related pathways.ELISA results showed that the high dose of Lycii Fructus-Chrysanthemi Flos extract could significantly increase the content of PPARγ and COL1A1(P<0.01)and reduce the content of SMA(P<0.05).CONCLUSION The Lycii Fructus-Chry-santhemi Flos herbal pair extract has effects on delaying the occurrence and progression of light source-induced myopia in guinea pigs,protecting retinal cells,improving DA secretion disorders caused by artificial light environment,and regulating the level of PPAR,which has positive significance for the prevention and control of light source-induced myopia and provides a scientific basis for the ra-tional use of drugs in clinical practice and the creation of eye health products.

Evaluate the interventional effect of Lycium barbarum leaves extract on cataract rats and its effects on plasma and liver tissue metabolites. The ultimate goal is to explore the scientific connotation of Lycium barbarum leaves extract on vision improvement. All experiments were approved by the experimental animal ethics committee from Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine (202306A067). D-Galactose (D-gal) induced cataract model in rats was established. The lens opacity, lens and liver tissue pathology, level of oxidative stress and polyol metabolism regulation in the lens, level of oxidative stress in serum and liver tissue, and the content of inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in serum and liver tissue were analysed to evaluate the effect of Lycium barbarum leaves extract on cataract. The metabolite profiles of plasma and liver tissue of rats were analyzed by UPLC-QTOF-MS/MS. Principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) were used to compare and analyze the metabolic data in control group and cataract group, and screen potential biomarkers. The related metabolic pathways were further constructed by KEGG database analysis. The results showed that lens and liver pathology of cataract rats were improved after being intervened by the leaves extract of Lycium barbarum. The contents of AR and Ca²⁺ were significantly decreased in lens, and the contents of SDH and GSH and the ability of CAT were significantly increased; the content of GSH and the ability of SOD were significantly improved in serum and liver tissue, the content of MDA, the abilities of ALT and AST and the level of inflammatory factors were significantly reduced. The metabolomics results showed that there were 15 different metabolites in plasma and liver tissue of cataract rats, and 9 different biomarkers including retinyl ester, stearic acid, and palmitic acid, were returned by Lycium barbarum leaves extract. As revealed by pathway enrichment in plasma and liver tissue, it was found that the retinol metabolic pathway was mainly regulated by Lycium barbarum leaves extract. In summary, Lycium barbarum leaves can effectively alleviate the pathological changes of cataract, inhibit inflammation and improve antioxidant capacity, which may relate to the retinol metabolic pathway. It provides scientific basis and support for revealing the scientific connotation of the effect of Lycium barbarum leaves on vision improvement.
