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.

Objective:To explore the impact of pembrolizumab combined with chemotherapy on angiogenesis and circulating endothelial cells in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) .Methods:The retrospective analysis of clinical data from 121 patients diagnosed with advanced NSCLC who were admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xingtai Medical College from August 2021 to January 2023 was conducted. These patients were divided into a control group ( n=57) and an observation group ( n=64) based on the designated treatment protocol. Specifically, individuals in the control group received standard chemotherapy (cisplatin+paclitaxel), while those in the observation group underwent penpilimab therapy in conjunction with conventional chemotherapy. The comparative assessment encompassed short-term clinical efficacy, quality of life, immune function parameters, angiogenic factors [including endostatin, insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) ], circulating endothelial cells, and adverse reactions within the two groups. Results:After 6 courses of treatment, the objective response rate [67.19% (43/64) vs. 49.12% (28/57) ] and disease control rate [87.50% (56/64) vs. 70.18% (40/57) ] in observation group were higher than those in control group, with statistically significant differences ( χ2=4.06, P=0.044; χ2=5.52, P=0.019). The quality of life score of observation group [ (56.77±6.81) points] was significantly higher than that of control group [ (47.73±8.23) points], with a statistically significant difference ( t=6.61, P<0.001) ; The T cell subgroup CD3 + levels [ (63.59±9.00) % vs. (53.06±8.80%), t=6.49, P<0.001], CD4 + levels [ (46.54±8.20) % vs. (30.74±7.32) %, t=11.13, P<0.001] and CD4 +/CD8 + ratio (1.90±0.36 vs. 1.21±0.28, t=11.66, P<0.001) in observation group were significantly higher than those in control group, with statistically significant differences; Endostatin in observation group [ (48.99±3.43) μmol/L] was significantly higher than that in control group [ (31.35±3.87) μmol/L], with a statistically significant difference ( t=26.58, P<0.001), IGF-1 [ (102.31±20.35) μg/L vs. (134.98±19.02) μg/L] and VEGF [ (31.70±4.32) pg/ml vs. (58.71±5.99) pg/ml] were significantly lower in observation group than those in control group, with statistically significant differences ( t=18.73, P<0.001; t=28.14, P<0.001). The number of circulating endothelial cells in observation group [ (58.77±10.03) /ml] was significantly lower than that in control group [ (87.01±8.01) /ml], with a statistically significant difference ( t=17.20, P<0.001). During treatment, there were no statistically significant differences in the incidence of gastrointestinal reaction ( χ2=0.01, P=0.908), leukopenia ( χ2=0.64, P=0.424), thrombocytopenia ( χ2=0.28, P=0.597), anemia ( χ2=1.66, P=0.197), nephrotoxicity ( χ2=0.64, P=0.424), skin rash ( χ2=1.33, P=0.249) between the two groups. Conclusion:The combination therapy of pembrolizumab and chemotherapy for the treatment of advanced NSCLC has demonstrated noteworthy effectiveness. This regimen has the potential to enhance patients' immune functionality, ameliorate their overall quality of life, suppress angiogenesis, and exhibits a commendable profile of safety and reliability.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic value of rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) performed by endoscopists for solid pancreatic lesions requiring tissue for immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining with different approach of endoscopic ultrasound-guided tissue acquisition (EUS-TA).Methods:After screening 1 573 cases who underwent EUS-TA operation at the Endoscopy Center of Peking Union Medical College Hospital between August 2018 and October 2022, a total of 65 cases of solid pancreatic lesions whose diagnosis rely on IHC staining was collected and summarized with clinical data of each case. Among 65 cases, there were 46 cases of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs), 13 cases of pancreatic solid pseudo-papillary tumors (SPTs), and 6 cases of lymphomas and mesenchymal. Patients were categorized into ROSE group (36 cases) and non-ROSE group (29 cases) according to the presence or absence of endoscopists performed ROSE during EUS-TA operation. They were further divided into subgroups of FNA-ROSE (26 cases), FNB-ROSE (10 cases), FNA-non-ROSE (24 cases) and FNB-non-ROSE (5 cases) according to the type of EUS-TA. Diagnostic accuracy and IHC success rate were compared between different groups and subgroups. Binomial logistic multifactorial regression analysis was used to evaluate the influence of ROSE and EUS-TA type on diagnostic accuracy and IHC success rate.Results:There were no statistically significant differences between ROSE group and non-ROSE group in terms of age, gender, bilirubin level, CA19-9 level, lesion site, lesion size, composition ratio of diagnosis, and surgical rate. The differences in mean size of lesions, needle gauge, location of puncturation, and number of needle pass between subgroups were not statistically significant. The diagnostic accuracy was 88.9% in ROSE group and 79.3% in non-ROSE group, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P=0.023). The diagnostic accuracy of FNA-ROSE group was higher than that of FNA-non-ROSE group (88.5% vs 75.0%), but the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.100). The differences in diagnostic accuracy and success rate of IHC between FNB-ROSE group and FNB-non-ROSE group were not statistically significant. Binomial logistic multifactorial regression analysis did not reveal any independent influences on diagnostic accuracy. Conclusions:ROSE performed by endoscopists improved diagnostic accuracy of EUS-TA in solid pancreatic lesions requiring IHC staining, and therefore is potentially valuable for improving the diagnostic efficiency of EUS-TA for such diseases.

Objective To investigate the attributable risk(AR)of Acinetobacter baumannii(AB)infection in criti-cally ill patients.Methods A multicenter retrospective cohort study was conducted among adult patients in inten-sive care unit(ICU).Patients with AB isolated from sterile body fluid and confirmed with AB infection in each cen-ter were selected as the infected group.According to the matching criteria that patients should be from the same pe-riod,in the same ICU,as well as with similar APACHE Ⅱ score(±5 points)and primary diagnosis,patients who did not infect with AB were selected as the non-infected group in a 1:2 ratio.The AR was calculated.Results The in-hospital mortality of patients with AB infection in sterile body fluid was 33.3％,and that of non-infected group was 23.1％,with no statistically significant difference between the two groups(P=0.069).The AR was 10.2％(95％CI:-2.3％-22.8％).There is no statistically significant difference in mortality between non-infected pa-tients and infected patients from whose blood,cerebrospinal fluid and other specimen sources AB were isolated(P＞0.05).After infected with AB,critically ill patients with the major diagnosis of pulmonary infection had the high-est AR.There was no statistically significant difference in mortality between patients in the infected and non-infec-ted groups(P＞0.05),or between other diagnostic classifications.Conclusion The prognosis of AB infection in critically ill patients is highly overestimated,but active healthcare-associated infection control for AB in the ICU should still be carried out.

Objective To investigate the implementation of surveillance,prevention and control measures for healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in maternal and child healthcare(MCH)institutions,and provide policy evi-dence for optimizing HAI prevention and control in MCH institutions.Methods Stratified sampling was conducted among the MCH institutions at provincial,municipal and county levels in 8 provinces/autonomous regions.A uni-fied questionnaire was designed and the online survey was conducted through"Questionnaire Star".Results The data from 123 MCH institutions were included in the analysis.90.24％of the MCH institutions carried out compre-hensive surveillance on HAI.The ratios of MCH institutions which implemented targeted surveillance on HAI in neonatal intensive care unit(NICU),surgical site infection,multidrug-resistant organisms(MDROs)and HAI in intensive care units(non-NICU excluded)were 89.66％,85.96％,80.77％,and 74.19％,respectively.51.22％MCH institutions adopted information surveillance system on HAI cases.94.31％MCH institutions carried out surveillance on hand hygiene compliance.Over 90％MCH institutions carried out surveillance on environment hy-giene in high-risk departments.71.54％MCH institutions conducted centralized cleaning,disinfection,sterilization and supply for reusable medical instruments in the central sterile supply department(CSSD).Over 90％MCH insti-tutions established three-level pre-examination triage systems.86.18％set up transitional wards.MCH institutions generally adopted a management model with established effective communication,full appointment visits,and sepa-rate visits for special medical groups,such as registered pregnant women,high-risk newborns,healthcare groups,and long-term rehabilitation patients.However,the ratio of institutions conducting on-line follow-up visits was less than 50％.Conclusion MCH institutions have generally carried out comprehensive and targeted surveillance on HAI.Information surveillance need to be facilitated.Hand hygiene and environmental hygiene surveillance has been popularized to a certain extent at all levels of MCH institutions.The cleaning,disinfection,sterilization,and supply processes of reusable medical devices in a few MCH institutions are not standardized.Special medical populations get effective management.On-line healthcare is to be further promoted.

Consciousness and unconsciousness represent a compelling topic in psychology and neuroscience, embodying a dynamic interplay between two fundamental cognitive states. Understanding the cognitive and neural mechanisms underlying their interaction poses a significant challenge. While previous studies have predominantly focused on the impact of attention on consciousness, the influence of attention on unconscious processes has often been overlooked. However, the role of attention in modulating unconscious information processing is paramount, as it can regulate various aspects of unconscious visual processing, including simple visual information, semantic content, and emotional stimuli. Within the visual processing pathway, attention operates at early levels to modulate unconscious visual processing, starting at least from the eye-of-origin and visual orientations. In the semantic system, attention can top-down enhance unconscious semantic processes in a goal-dependent manner, enhancing goal-relevant processes while suppressing goal-irrelevant ones. In the emotional system, attentional load, in addition to target relevance, can regulate unconscious emotional processing. These findings suggest that the regulatory role of attention on unconscious processes depends on both goal relevance and the amount of attentional resources. Specifically, the goal-relevance of unconscious processes determines the direction of attentional modulation, while the amount of attentional resources allocated determines the extent of modulation. The once-prevailing notion that unconscious processing is automatic and not subject to attentional modulation has been gradually overturned. Current studies indicate that attention can modulate both conscious and unconscious processes, providing a new perspective on the relationship between attention and consciousness. Spatial attention can operate independently from consciousness at the neural representation level. Furthermore, other factors tightly related to attention, such as goal-related task sets, working memory, and attentional load, can all impact unconscious processes. These findings collectively suggest that attention and consciousness are functionally dissociated, supporting the idea that attention is necessary for both conscious and some unconscious processes. In conclusion, unconscious information processing is a complex and intriguing field where attention plays a crucial role. Continued in-depth research in this area is needed to deepen our understanding of how the human brain processes unconscious information and how attention exerts its regulatory influence. This not only requires studying the commonalities and specificities of different types of attention but also examining the sharing and individuality among different sensory modalities and cognitive modules. Theoretically, this not only helps us understand the mechanisms of attention but also sheds light on the mechanisms of consciousness. Studying these issues is also of practical value. Importantly, the organization and regulation of unconscious processes are closely related to human survival and development. For example, while rapid unconscious emotional processes (such as unconscious fear) are beneficial for rapid threat responses and increased survival chances, excessive and uncontrolled unconscious emotional processes can lead to anxiety disorders, phobias, and other mental disorders. Furthermore, while repeated perceptual and behavioral training can improve efficiency by forming highly automated unconscious processes, excessively stubborn unconscious processes can hinder the learning of new skills. Studying the role of attention in regulating these unconscious processes can help develop new intervention methods to maintain mental health and improve behavioral performance.

Glioblastoma (GBM), one of the most common malignant tumors in the central nervous system (CNS), is characterized by diffuse and invasive growth as well as resistance to various combination therapies. GBM is the most prevalent type with the highest degree of malignancy and the worst prognosis. While current clinical treatments include surgical resection, radiotherapy, temozolomide chemotherapy, novel molecular targeted therapy, and immunotherapy, the median survival time of GBM patients is only about one year. Radiotherapy is one of the important treatment modalities for GBM, which relies on ionizing radiation to eradicate tumor cells. Approximately 60% to 70% of patients need to receive radiotherapy as postoperative radiotherapy or neoadjuvant radiotherapy during the treatment process. However, during radiotherapy, the radioresistant effect caused by DNA repair activation and cell apoptosis inhibition impedes the therapeutic effect of malignant glioblastoma.Ferroptosis was first proposed by Dr. Brent R. Stockwell in 2012. It is an iron-dependent mode of cell death induced by excessive lipid peroxidation. Although the application of ferroptosis in tumor therapy is still in the exploratory stage, it provides a completely new idea for tumor therapy as a novel form of cell death. Ferroptosis has played a significant role in the treatment of GBM. Specifically, research has revealed the key processes of ferroptosis occurrence, including intracellular iron accumulation, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, lipid peroxidation, and a decrease in the activity of the antioxidant system. Among them, glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4) in the cytoplasm and mitochondria, ferroptosis suppressor protein 1 (FSP1) on the plasma membrane, and dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) in the mitochondria constitute an antioxidant protection system against ferroptosis. In iron metabolism, nuclear receptor coactivator 4 (NCOA4) can mediate ferritin autophagy to regulate intracellular iron balance based on intracellular iron content. Heme oxygenase1 (HMOX1) catalyzes heme degradation to release iron and regulate ferroptosis. Radiation can trigger ferroptosis by generating ROS, inhibiting the signaling axis of the antioxidant system, depleting glutathione, upregulating acyl-CoA synthase long chain family member 4 (ACSL4), and inducing autophagy. Interestingly, some articles has documented that exposure to low doses of radiation (6 Gy for 24 h or 8 Gy for 4-12 h) can induce the expression of SLC7A11 and GPX4 in breast cancer and lung cancer cells, leading to radiation resistance, while radiation-induced ferroptosis occurs after 48 h. In contrast, high doses of ionizing radiation (20 Gy and 50 Gy) increase lipid peroxidation after 24 h. This suggests that radiation-induced oxidative stress is a double-edged sword that can regulate ferroptosis in both directions, and the ultimate fate of cells after radiation exposure——developing resistance and achieving homeostasis or undergoing ferroptosis——depends on the degree and duration of membrane lipid damage caused by the radiation dose. In addition, during the process of radiotherapy, methods such as inducing iron overload, damaging the antioxidant system, and disrupting mitochondrial function are used to target ferroptosis, thereby enhancing the radiosensitivity of glioblastoma. By promoting the occurrence of ferroptosis in tumor cells as a strategy to improve radiotherapy sensitivity, we can enhance the killing effect of ionizing radiation on tumor cells, thus providing more treatment options for patients with glioblastoma. In this paper, we reviewed ferroptosis and its mechanism, analyzed the molecular mechanism of radiation-induced ferroptosis, and discussed the effective strategies to regulate ferroptosis in enhancing the sensitivity of radiotherapy, with a view to providing an important reference value for improving the current status of glioblastoma treatment.

Sulforaphane is a naturally occurring active substance derived from cruciferous vegetables with potent antioxidant and anticancer properties. Researches have shown that sulforaphane has good bioavailability and can be absorbed by the small intestine through passive transport, followed by excretion in the form of urine via the hydrophobic acid pathway. In addition, since sulforaphane is easy to be absorbed and metabolized, wrapping sulforaphane with nanomaterials can improve its bioavailability and stability, prolong its action time in human body, and better utilize its therapeutic effect. In terms of mechanism of action, sulforaphane can activate Nrf2 and HSF1 signaling pathways, induce the expression of phase II detoxification enzymes HO-1, NADPH, GST and HSP, thus regulating the concentration of oxidative stress ROS in vivo; inhibit NF-κB signaling pathway, thus suppressing the expression of inflammatory factors TNF-α, IL-1 and IL-6; regulate epigenetic modifications, thus inhibiting HDAC and DNMT, and increasing the concentration of histone H3 and H4. By regulating the expression levels of the above factors, sulforaphane can affect the occurrence and development of cancer, neurodegenerative diseases and other diseases. In recent years, several phase I/II clinical trials have shown that sulforaphane has good drug-generating properties. For example, researchers have found that patients with skin cancer have not shown any health problems and their corresponding functional problems have improved greatly after long-term use of sulforaphane. This suggests that in the future sulforaphane has a very high medicinal potential for the treatment of cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. In this paper, we review the pharmacokinetics, target of action and safety of sulforaphane and its research progress in tumor and neurodegenerative diseases to provide a reference for the future application of sulforaphane in the treatment of tumor and neurodegenerative diseases.
