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.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect and mechanism of polysaccharide in water extract of Cyclocarya paliurus （CPWP） in inhibiting benign prostatic hyperplasia （BPH）. MethodsCPWP was obtained by heating reflux， aqueous extraction， alcohol precipitation， and freeze drying. The chemical composition and structural properties of CPWP were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography with 1-pheny-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone pre-column derivatization and infrared spectroscopy. Male SD rats were randomly assigned into control， model， finasteride （ig 5 mg·kg^-1）， and low-， medium-， and high-dose （ig 50， 75， 100 mg·kg^-1） CPWP groups， with 8 rats in each group. The BPH model was established by subcutaneously injecting propionate testosterone in castrated rats. The rats in the drug intervention groups were administrated with corresponding drugs， and those in the control group were administrated with an equal volume of normal saline each day. After 30 consecutive days， the rats were sacrificed， and the prostate tissue was separated and weighed. The effects of drug interventions on the body weight， prostate wet weight， and prostate index of rats were examined. The prostate tissue was stained with hematoxylin-eosin （HE） for observation of pathological changes. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was employed to measure the level of dihydrotestosterone （DHT）， and immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expression of steroid 5 alpha-reductase 2 （SRD5A2） and Ki67 in the prostate tissue. ResultsCPWP was identified as a saccharide， with characteristic absorption peaks of saccharides. CPWP showed the total sugar content of 44.15% and molecular weight within the range of 5.5-78.8 kDa， being composed of mannose， rhamnose， galacturonic acid， glucose， galactose， xylose， and arabinose. Compared with the control group， the model group had significantly increased prostate wet weight and prostate index （P<0.01）， thick and tall prostate epithelial cells， increased internal wrinkles， papillary expansion into the cavity， an elevation in DHT level in the serum， and up-regulated expression of SRD5A2 and Ki67 in the prostate tissue （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， both the finasteride and CPWP groups showed decreases in prostate wet weight and prostate index （P<0.05， P<0.01）， thinned prostate epithelial cells， with only a small portion of internal wrinkles and papillary expansion into the cavity， shortened papillary protrusions， lowered DHT level in the serum， and down-regulated expression of SRD5A2 and Ki67 in the prostate tissue （P<0.01）. Moreover， CPWP exerted effects in a dose-dependent manner. ConclusionCPWP inhibits BPH by regulating the expression of SRD5A2.

OBJECTIVE To explore the clinical efficacy and safety of Huangkui capsule combined with cyclophosphamide and prednisone in the treatment of immunoglobulin A （IgA） nephropathy with renal insufficiency. METHODS A total of 117 patients with IgA nephropathy and renal insufficiency who were hospitalized in the department of nephrology of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University from February 2021 to March 2024 were divided into prednisone group （n＝38）， cyclophosphamide group （n＝39） and Huangkui group （n＝40） according to the random number table method. On the basis of standardized basic treatment， the three groups were treated with prednisone， prednisone + cyclophosphamide， and prednisone + cyclophosphamide + Huangkui capsule， respectively， with a course of 6 months. The clinical efficacy， renal function indexes， immunoglobulin levels， inflammatory factor levels before and after treatment， and the incidence of adverse reactions during treatment were compared among the three groups. RESULTS Finally， 107 patients completed the study （35 in prednisone group， 37 in cyclophosphamide group， and 35 in Huangkui group）. After 6 months of treatment， there was a statistically significant difference in the total effective rate among the three groups （P＝0.028）， and the total effective rate of the Huangkui group was significantly higher than that of the prednisone group （P＝0.023）. In terms of renal function， the levels of blood urea nitrogen （BUN）， serum creatinine （Scr）， and urinary microalbumin （Umalb） in the three groups after treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment， while the estimated glomerular filtration rate （eGFR） was significantly higher than that before treatment （P＜0.05）. Among them， the Huangkui group was superior to the other two groups in reducing BUN level （P＜0.05）， and both the Huangkui group and cyclophosphamide group were superior to the prednisone group in improving Scr， Umalb and eGFR （P＜0.05）. In terms of immunology， both the Huangkui group and cyclophosphamide group were superior to the prednisone group in increasing IgG level and decreasing IgA and IgM levels （P＜0.05）.

Thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy(TAO)is a rare organ-specific autoimmune disease with an unclear pathogenesis. At present, the treatment still relies mainly on glucocorticoids and traditional immunosuppressants. However, some patients respond poorly to these drugs and experience treatment-related adverse reactions, highlighting the urgent need for novel drugs for TAO treatment. In recent years, with the deepening of research on the pathogenesis of TAO, a multitude of biologics targeting specific targets have emerged. Among them, teprotumumab, which targets the insulin-like growth factor-I receptor(IGF-IR), has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of TAO, and several other biologics are currently in clinical trials. This review provides the latest reference for the clinical prevention, treatment, and research of TAO by summarizing the current clinical research status of biologics targeting IGF-IR, neonatal Fc receptor(FcRn), thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor(TSHR), B cells, cytokines, and other biological agents in TAO and analyzing their impact on clinical treatment and future research trends.

Oral diseases concern almost every individual and are a serious health risk to the popula-tion.The restorative treatment of tooth and jaw defects is an important means to achieve oral function and support the appearance of the contour.Based on the principle of"learning from the nature",Deng Xu-liang's group of Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology has proposed a new concept of"microstructural biomimetic design and tissue adaptation of tooth/jaw materials"to address the worldwide problems of difficulty in treating dentine hypersensitivity,poor prognosis of restoration of tooth defects,and vertical bone augmentation of alveolar bone after tooth loss.The group has broken through the bottle-neck of multi-stage biomimetic technology from the design of microscopic features to the enhancement of macroscopic effects,and invented key technologies such as crystalline/amorphous multi-level assembly,ion-transportation blocking,and multi-physical properties of the micro-environment reconstruction,etc.The group also pioneered the cationic-hydrogel desensitizer,digital stump and core integrated restora-tions,and developed new crown and bridge restorative materials,gradient functionalisation guided tissue regeneration membrane,and electrically responsive alveolar bone augmentation restorative membranes,etc.These products have established new clinical strategies for tooth/jaw defect repair and achieved inno-vative results.In conclusion,the research results of our group have strongly supported the theoretical im-provement of stomatology,developed the technical system of oral hard tissue restoration,innovated the clinical treatment strategy,and led the progress of the stomatology industry.

Objective To investigate the expression of PIK3CA,phosphorylated protein kinase B(p-AKT)and phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10(PTEN)in sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma(SNSCC).Methods The expressions of PIK3CA and PTEN in head and neck squamous cell carci-noma(HNSCC)were analyzed through the data set of HNSCC in the cancer genome map of UCSC Xena data-base.The immunohistochemical SP method was used to measure the expression of PIK3CA,p-AKT and PTEN in 43 cases of SNSCC tissues,20 cases of normal inferior concha tissues.The relationship between the expressions of PIK3CA,p-AKT and PTEN protein with the clinicopathological features and prognosis of the patients with SNSCC was analyzed.Results The results of bioinformatic analysis showed that PIK3CA mR-NA expression in HNSCC tissues was higher than that in paracancerous tissues(P＜0.01),while the PTEN mRNA expression was lower than that in paracancerous tissues(P＜0.05).The immunohistochemical detec-tion results showed that the positive expressions rates of PIK3CA and p-AKT proteins in normal nasal mucosa tissues were significantly lower than those in SNSCC tissues,while the positive expression rate of PTEN pro-tein in SNSCC tissues was significantly higher than that in normal inferior nasal concha mucosa tissues,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.01).The expressions of PIK3CA and p-AKT protein were related to the clinical stage,differentiation degree and primary site(P＜0.05),but were not related to age,gender,smoking and drinking(P＞0.05);the PTEN protein expression was not related with the clinical stage,differentiation degree,primary site,age,smoking and drinking(P＞0.05).The Spearman analysis showed that the expression of PIK3CA in SNSCC tissues was positively correlated with p-AKT protein ex-pression(r=0.664,P＜0.01),and PIK3CA was negatively correlated with PTEN protein(r=-0.414,P＜0.01).The expression of p-AKT was negatively correlated with PTEN protein(r=-0.453,P＜0.01).The Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the median survival time of the patients with PIK3CA and p-AKT protein positive expression was shorter than that of the patients with negative expression(P＜0.01).There was no statistically significant difference in median survival between the patients with PTEN protein positive expres-sion and those with negative expression.Conclusion The overexpressions of PIK3CA and p-AKT accompa-nied by the loss of PTEN expression participate in the development and progression of SNSCC,moreover the PIK3CA and p-AKT expressions are related to the poor prognosis of the patients.
