In recent years， the incidence of pulmonary nodules has kept rising. To give full play to the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） in the treatment of pulmonary nodules and identify the breakthrough points of integrating TCM with Western medicine， the China Association of Chinese Medicine organized medical experts in TCM and western medicine to carry out in-depth discussion regarding this disease. The discussion encompassed the modern medical advances， TCM theories of etiology and pathogenesis， the role and advantages of TCM in the whole course management of pulmonary nodules， contents and methods of research on pulmonary nodules， and science popularization work， aiming to provide a reference for clinical practice and scientific research. After discussion， the experts concluded that the occurrence of pulmonary nodules was rooted in the deficiency of the lung and spleen and triggered by phlegm dampness， blood stasis， and Qi stagnation. TCM can treat pulmonary nodules by controlling and reducing nodules， improving physical constitution， ameliorating multi-system nodular diseases， reducing anxiety and avoiding excessive diagnosis and treatment， and serving as an alternative for patients who are unwilling or unfit for surgical treatment. At present， the optimal diagnosis and treatment strategy for pulmonary nodules has not been formed， which needs to be further studied from multiple perspectives such as clinical epidemiology， biology， and evidence-based medicine. The primary task of current research is to find out the advantages， effective prescriptions， and target populations and determine the effective outcomes of TCM in the treatment of pulmonary nodules. At the same time， basic research should be carried out to explore the etiology and biological behaviors of pulmonary nodules. The expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary nodules with integrated TCM and Western medicine needs to be continuously revised to guide clinicians to conduct standardized， scientific， and accurate effective diagnosis and treatment.

Objective:To explore the potential mechanism of Huayu Pills in the treatment of TNBC (triple-negative breast cancer) using network pharmacology.Methods:TCMSP (Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology), PubChem, STITCH and SwissTargetPrediction databases were used to analyze the potential targets of Huayu Pills. TNBC disease targets were screened based on the TCGA (The Cancer Genome Atlas) database. The drug-disease mapping target was constructed by PPI network, key target screening and module analysis, and the DAVID database was used for GO function annotation and KEGG signal pathway enrichment analysis. SD rats were orally administered 3.94 g/kg of Huayu Pills decoction for 4 days to prepare medicated serum. HUVEC cells were randomly divided into a control group and an experimental group using a random number table method. The experimental group received intervention with Huayu Pills containing serum for 24 hours, inoculated in matrigel's solidified 48 well plate and HUVEC angiogenesis was observed 3 hours later.Results:130 possible targets of Huayu Pills in the treatment of TNBC were obtained. VEGFA is the core target. The cascade of angiogenesis, hypoxia, and blood coagulation may be the main functions and key signals of Huayu Pills in the treatment of TNBC. In vitro studies have shown that serum containing Huayu Pills can promote the normalization of tumor blood vessels in HUVEC cells.Conclusion:Huayu Pills may promote tumor vascular normalization (angiogenesis, hypoxia, coagulation cascade reactions) through VEGF targets, and can assist immune checkpoint inhibitors in the treatment of TNBC.

Objective To investigate whether chemokine CCL2(also known as monocyte chemotactic protein 1 or MCP-1)has a causal relationship with lung cancer.Methods Genetic data of chemokine CCL2 and different pathological subtypes of lung cancer were extracted from genome-wide association studies(GWAS),and inverse-variance weighted(IVW)analysis was used as main analysis,while weighted median,simple model,MR-Egger regression,and weighted model were chosen as supplementary analyses.Sensitivity analyses were performed to verify the reliability of the data.Results The result of IVW analysis on chemokine CCL2 to lung adenocarcinoma was OR = 1.065,95%CI(0.919～1.234),P = 0.401.The result of IVW analysis on chemokine CCL2 to squamous cell lung carcinoma was OR = 1.059,95%CI(0.931～1.205),P = 0.381.The result of IVW analysis on chemokine CCL2 to small cell lung carcinoma was OR = 0.959,95%CI(0.760～1.208),P = 0.720.Conclusions There is no direct causal relationship between chemokine CCL2 and lung cancer.

This article is to illustrate the connection between neutrophil extracellular traps （NETs） and stasis-toxin interactions during the development of liver cancer， and to provide ideas for the prevention and treatment of liver cancer. It is believed that the mechanism of tumor-related thrombosis formation caused by NETs is closely related to "stasis" in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， and the continuous maintenance or enhancement of tumor microenvironment by NETs is closely related to "toxin" in TCM； the strong coagulation-promoting effect of NETs makes the local microenvironment， which can be regarded as the toxin caused by blood stasis； the changes of tumor microenvironment induced by NETs further induced platelet aggregation， which may present a state of stasis caused by toxin； the pathological changes of liver cancer caused by NETs can be regarded as the microscopic manifestation of the mechanism of stasis-toxin interaction of liver cancer.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of fiber nasopharyngoscope applied in adenoid hypertrophy(AH)combined with allergic rhinitis(AR)in children.Methods Clinical data of 174 pediatric patients from January 2021 to March 2024 was collected and analyzed.Among them,129 cases were diagnosed with AH via fiber nasopharyngoscope examination(79 cases with AR were assigned to the AH with AR group,the remaining 50 cases of simple AH without AR were assigned to the AH group),and 45 cases of simple AR without AH through fiber nasopharyngoscope examination were assigned to the AR group.And 25 healthy children who came to our pediatric health department for health examinations during the same period were selected as the healthy control(HC)group.On the day of admission,all subjects underwent lateral X-ray examination of the nasopharynx,and the ratio of the maximum thickness of adenoids to the anterior posterior diameter of the nasopharynx cavity(A/N ratio)was calculated.Meanwhile their of peripheral blood eosinophil(EOS)percentage,serum interleukin-17(IL-17),and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)levels were tested.The A/N ratio,peripheral blood EOS percentage,serum IL-17 and TNF-α levels were compared among the AH with AR group,AH group,AR group,and HC group.The A/N ratio,peripheral blood EOS percentage,serum IL-17 and TNF-α levels of children with different degrees of adenoid obstruction under fiber nasopharyngoscope were compared in AH and AR group.Spearman correlation coefficient was used to analyze the correlation between the degree of adenoid obstruction under fiber nasopharyngoscope and the levels of peripheral blood EOS percentage,serum IL-17 and TNF-α in children from AH and AR group.Result A/N ratio:the value in AH with AR group was higher than that in AH group(P＜0.05),the value in AH group was higher than that in AR group(P＜0.05),and the value in AR group was higher than that in HC group(P＜0.05).Peripheral blood EOS percentage,serum IL-17 and TNF-α levels:AH with AR group had higher levels than those in AR group(P＜0.05),AR group had higher levels than those in AH group(P＜0.05),and AH group had higher levels than those in HC group(P＜0.05).The A/N ratio,peripheral blood EOS percentage,serum IL-17 and TNF-α levels in children with adenoid obstruction degree Ⅲ～Ⅳ under fiber nasopharyngoscope in the AH group were significantly higher than those in children with degree Ⅰ～Ⅱ(P＜0.05).Spearman correlation analysis showed that the degree of adenoid obstruction under fiber nasopharyngoscope in children with AH accompanied by AR significantly positively correlated with peripheral blood EOS percentage,serum IL-17 and TNF-α levels(r values were 0.527,0.451,and 0.402 respectively,P＜0.05).Conclusion Fiber nasopharyngoscope can be used for the diagnosis of AH with AR in children,and can be positive in determining severity of the patient's condition when combined with peripheral blood EOS percentage,serum IL-17 and TNF-α levels.

The discussion and research on the clinical dominant diseases of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） have attracted increasing attention. Through approaches including modern technology， evidence-based medical methods， and multi-disciplinary treatment， we should construct a sound TCM inheritance and innovation system， establish a collaborative innovation mechanism， and integrate major research projects， striving to make breakthroughs in TCM theory， methodology， standards， and regulation system， promoting the scientific and technological progress of TCM， and thereby improving its curative effect. The China Association of Chinese Medicine （CACM） carried out a series of youth salon seminars for clinical dominant diseases in TCM， discussing and sorting out the advantages of the dominant diseases in clinical diagnosis and treatment of TCM and integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine in specific diseases or fields. Authoritative experts in the industry were invited to give comment and guidance to form a report. Centering on clinical research of dominant diseases， thematic research was carried out in the aspects of practice， human experience-based evidence， and transformation path. Through the systematic study of the dominant diseases， the advantages of TCM in different stages of disease treatment were excavated to constantly improve the prevention and treatment ability of TCM and carry forward the advancement of TCM theory and practice. At the same time， the communication and understanding between traditional Chinese and western medicine were improved， laying the foundation for the further formation of industry guidelines or consensus and comprehensive promotion. These seminars are expected to provide references for the development of policy planning， clinical diagnosis and treatment， health economy， and social services in TCM and lay the foundation for the formation of a new modern diagnosis and treatment system with Chinese characteristics.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of the Fangfeng Tongshengsan on post-chemoembolization syndrome with primary liver cancer or postoperative liver metastases of colorectal cancer. MethodSeventy-two patients suffered from post-chemoembolization syndrome after transcatheter hepatic arterial chemoembolization were randomly divided into 2 groups， including a Fangfeng Tongshengsan group and a control group， with 36 patients in each group. The patients in Fangfeng Tongshengsan group orally took the decoction for consecutive 7 d. The patients in the control group were physically cooled down with alcohol rub bath and ice pack for consecutive 7 d. Furthermore， the difference of fever， Karnofsky performance status （KPS）， pain in the liver region， nausea vomiting， constipation， and liver function between these two groups were observed. ResultCompared with the control group， Fangfeng Tongshengsan significantly relieved fever， reduced the body temperature （P<0.05）， and shortened the duration of fever （P<0.05）， indicating that Fangfeng Tongshengsan remarkably improved the KPS （P<0.05）. Meanwhile， Fangfeng Tongshengsan obviously alleviated nausea， vomiting， and constipation status and shortened the duration time compared with the control group （P<0.05）. In addition， the parameters of liver function including alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， γ-glutamyl transpeptidase （GGT）， and total bilirubin （TBIL） were significantly decreased in the Fangfeng Tongshengsan group （P<0.05）， which indicated that Fangfeng Tongshengsan alleviated liver dysfunction of patients with post-chemoembolization syndrome. ConclusionFangfeng Tongshengsan can be used to treat post-chemoembolization syndrome with primary liver cancer and postoperative liver metastases of colorectal cancer.

Objective:To investigate the clinical significance of coagulation function related indicators in the prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer.Methods:The clinical data of 248 patients with non-small cell lung cancer from June 2014 to December 2017 in the Department of Oncology, Beijing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Capital Medical University, were retrospectively analyzed. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to determine the best cutoff values of prognostic indicators,the Cox regression model was used for multivariate analysis, and the Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis.Results:ROC curve analysis showed that the best cutoff values for D-dimer (D-D), fibrinogen (FIB) and prothrombin time (PT)were 0.18 mg/L, 4.25 g/L and 12.0 s, respectively. Cox multivariate regression analysis showed that increased expression of D-D ( HR=1.197, 95% CI 1.100-1.303), PT ( HR=1.111, 95% CI 1.049-1.176) and FIB ( HR=1.510, 95% CI 1.276-1.788) were risk factors for the prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer ( P<0.001). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis results showed that the overall survival in the high expression group of D-D, FIB and PT was shorter than in of the low expression group ( P<0.001). Conclusion:D-D, PT and FIB are independent factors affecting the prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer.

Objective Subcutaneous transplantation Lewis lung carcinoma model is commonly used in experimental studies.Researchers often choose different transplantation sites to create the models while little attention was paid on the effect of different inoculation sites on the formation of transplanted tumors.The aim of this study was to compare the effect of tumor cell inoculation at different sites on tumor formation in mice.Methods Lewis lung adenocarcinoma (ll2-luc-m38) cells stably expressing luciferase protein were subcutaneously injected into C57 BL/6 mice at the right armpit, right groin, or footpad, respectively.An IVIS spectrum in vivo imaging system was used to observe the tumor and metastasis formation.The survival time and mortality were recorded.H-E stained pathology was performed to examine the histological changes of the lung tissues and tumor metastesis.Results The tumor formation time was earlier in the armpit and groin groups, both with a tumor formation rate of 100%, while the tumors occurred later, with a tumor formation rate of 33% in the footpad group.The pulmonary metastasis rate was 70% in the groin group, 50% in the ampit group, and 0% in the footpad group, at the 21st day after inoculation.The footpad group had a high mortality.The tumors in the groin group and armpit group can be surgically resected, with a postoperative survival rate of 100%.Conclusions In this mouse model of subcutaneously transplanted Lewis adenocarcinoma, the groin and ampit groups have advantages such as a high tumor formation rate, good tolerance of tumor resection, low surgical mortality rate, easy to monitor, simple operation and high reproducibility.The axillary group has an even higher metastasis rate.
