    Abstract Pulmonary artery anastomosis (PAA) is a critical step in lung transplantation. The conventional approach involves end-to-end anastomosis, which can lead to arterial tortuosity, oozing, stenosis, and thrombosis. Here, we present a modified PAA technique for lung transplantation. The anesthesia protocol and the incision for lung transplantation adhere to standard lung transplantation protocols. The primary innovation is the enhanced pulmonary anastomosis technique. The donor and recipient artery stumps are adjusted to restore their natural anatomical alignment. The donor-recipient stump is everted, ensuring precise alignment of the intima of the donor and recipient arteries. Both ends of the anastomosis are secured using 5-0 Prolene sutures to ensure stability and traction, followed by continuous suturing. In this study, seven patients underwent PAA using this novel technique. Notably, no bleeding was observed upon unveiling and deaerating the anastomosis, eliminating the need for additional sutures. Furthermore, no pulmonary artery torsion or significant prolongation of the anastomotic procedure was observed. Postoperative computed tomography of the chest revealed no anastomotic stenosis or mural thrombosis. This novel cuff anastomosis technique can reduce the risk of thrombosis and prevent torsion and stenosis in the reconstructed artery.

    Abstract The treatment for resectable lung cancer has developed to the era of comprehensive treatment based on minimally invasive surgery (MIS). MIS is not only manifested by the "shrink" of incisions, but also by the individualization and meticulous of incisions. Meanwhile, the minimal invasiveness of other procedures in MIS, such as the minimally invasive anesthesia (tubeless anesthesia) and minimally invasive, meticulous and individualized surgical instruments represented by 3D thoracoscope with naked eye. Even advanced stage lung cancer patients could receive precision treatment based on molecular information of their cancer tissue obtained by surgery. Therefore, the treatment for lung cancer should be comprehensive treatment based on MIS.

    Abstract While spontaneous ventilation (SV) anesthesia is in use for clinical patients, there is still little systematic experimental research into its basic aspects. The rabbit SV model that we established previously has some limitations including the model being too small, differences in anesthetic drugs and anesthesia procedures, so we set out to establish an SV anesthesia model for beagle dogs.•Single lumen tracheal intubation was performed on beagles connecting a ventilator, and the anesthetic dosage was adjusted for spontaneous ventilation before surgery.•5 mL of 1 % lidocaine was applied as a local infiltration anesthesia at the surgical incision.•After thoracotomy, 5 mL of 1% lidocaine was sprayed onto the surface of the lungs and a T3-T7 intercostal nerve block (1:1 2 % lidocaine:0.75 % ropivacaine) was performed.

    Abstract Introduction: The mechanism of thymoma-associated myasthenia gravis (TAMG) is currently unknown, although patients with TAMG experience more severe myasthenic symptoms and have worse prognoses compared to regular thymoma patients. The objective of this research is to create a transcriptome map of TAMG using genes linked to disulfidptosis, detect possible biomarkers, and examine the disparities in the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) among different thymoma patients. The findings will offer valuable knowledge for personalized treatment alternatives.
    Methods: Thymoma samples' RNA-seq data, along with their corresponding clinical data, were acquired from the TCGA database using methods. Next, genes and disulfidptosis-related lncRNAs(DRLs) were chosen through correlation analysis. Then, a prediction model of TAMG was established by LASSO regression. Subsequent to that, an analysis of the mutation data, the tumor mutational burden (TMB), and the assessment of immune and stromal elements within the tumor microenvironment were conducted.
    Results: A total of 87 patients diagnosed with thymoma were included in the study, with 29 of them having TAMG. We discovered a group of 325 lncRNAs in this sample that showed significant associations with genes related to disulfidptosis, with 25 of them displaying significantly altered expression. Moreover, utilizing LASSO regression, we constructed a predictive model incorporating 11 DRLs. The analysis revealed an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.934 (CI 0.879-0.989), a cut-off value of 0.797, along with a sensitivity of 82.8 % and specificity of 93.1 %. Furthermore, we examined the TIME in both the high-risk and low-risk groups, and observed noteworthy disparities in B cells, T cells, and APC among the two groups (p < 0.05).
    Conclusion: This research offers the initial examination of genes associated with disulfidptosis and TAMG through genomic and transcriptomic analysis. Furthermore, a strong risk forecasting model was created and the significance of TIME in TAMG was also clarified. The discoveries offer significant understanding into the molecular processes of TAMG and present possible indicators for categorizing risk.

    Abstract Background: Post-translational modification plays an important role in the occurrence and development of various tumors. However, few researches were focusing on the SUMOylation regulatory genes as tumor biomarkers to predict the survival for specific patients. Here, we constructed and validated a two-gene signature to predict the overall survival (OS) of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients.
    Methods: The datasets analyzed in this study were downloaded from TCGA and GEO databases. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) Cox regression was used to construct the two-gene signature. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) and Gene Ontology (GO) was used to identify hub pathways associated with risk genes. The CCK-8 assay, cell cycle analysis, and transwell assay was used to validate the function of risk genes in NSCLC cell lines.
    Results: Firstly, most of the SUMOylation regulatory genes were highly expressed in various tumors through the R package 'limma' in the TCGA database. Secondly, our study found that the two gene signature constructed by LASSO regression analysis, as an independent prognostic factor, could predict the OS in both the TCGA training cohort and GEO validation cohorts (GSE68465, GSE37745, and GSE30219). Furthermore, functional enrichment analysis suggests that high-risk patients defined by the risk score system were associated with the malignant phenomenon, such as DNA replication, cell cycle regulation, p53 signaling pathway. Finally, the results of the CCK-8 assay, cell cycle analysis, and transwell assay demonstrated that the two risk genes, SAE1 and UBA2, could promote proliferation and migration in non-small cell lung cancer cells.
    Conclusions: The two-gene signature constructed in our study could predict the OS and may provide valuable clinical guidance for the treatment of NSCLC patients.

    Abstract Introduction: The multicenter CHAMPION study aimed to assess the impact of smoking cessation on post-operative complications (PCs) and smoking cessation patterns in Chinese patients undergoing lung surgery.
    Methods: Patients undergoing elective lung surgery were prospectively enrolled from three major tertiary centers in China. Patients were categorized as smokers or quitters before surgery. Baseline characteristics and smoking status were analyzed. The incidence of PCs and pulmonary PCs (PPCs), smoking relapse rate, and causes within six months post-operatively were investigated. The questionnaire was conducted in all patients and 30 healthcare professionals (HCPs), regarding the awareness and effectiveness of smoking cessation methods.
    Results: Of the 276 enrolled patients, 213 (77.2%) were smokers and 63 (22.8%) were quitters; 76.4% were diagnosed with primary lung cancer. PCs occurred in 13.8% of patients, with similar proportions in smokers (14.1%) and quitters (12.7%). PPCs occurred in 9.8% of patients with no significant differences between smokers and quitters (9.4% vs 11.1%, p=0.70). At six months, 9.2% of patients relapsed, with a lower rate in quitters compared to smokers (3.3% vs 11.0%, p=0.01). HCPs exhibited higher awareness of smoking cessation methods than patients. Perceived effectiveness of smoking cessation methods from the patients were low.
    Conclusions: In patients undergoing lung surgery with a low risk of PCs, active smoking does not significantly increase the risk of PCs or PPCs relative to quitters, suggesting that there is likely no need to postpone lung surgery for those who have not yet quit smoking. However, further large-scale studies are necessary to confirm these findings.

    Abstract Background: Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is highly invasive and poorly prognostic. The effects of chemotherapy with bevacizumab are promising on other tumors but unclear in extensive-disease SCLC (ED-SCLC). A systemic review and meta-analysis were performed to investigate the efficacy and toxicity in ED-SCLC patients.
    Methods: A review of current studies was performed on electronic databases and other sources to identify publications of ED-SCLC patients who received bevacizumab. Endpoints included overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), and complications.
    Results: Nine relevant articles with six single-arm and three two-arm studies were identified. Four hundred seventy-six patients were included, of which 368 and 108 were untreated and relapse patients. Most patients were performance status 0-1 (71.6%) and male (58.1%). The comparisons showed CT/bevacizumab slightly prolonged OS (HR =0.84) but significantly improved PFS (HR =0.74). The ORRs of untreated and relapse patients were 71% and 19%, though no significant difference was observed than CT/placebo. The most grade 3-4 complication and bevacizumab-associated complications were neutropenia and hypertension, whose rates were 33% and 6%. Patients who received CT/bevacizumab had a higher hypertension rate than CT/placebo (6%
    Discussion: The present study suggests that bevacizumab in the combination of standard chemotherapy provides better PFS than chemotherapy alone. Although the combined regimen is well-tolerated, no superiority in OS or response rate is observed.

    Abstract Background: The electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy (ENB) was increasingly used to mark small pulmonary nodules (PNs) for video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) resection due to high effectiveness and low risk. However, no study reports the learning curve of ENB-guided preoperative localization. In the study, we aimed to describe the learning curve of ENB-guided preoperative PNs localization initially.
    Methods: Consecutive PNs cases that underwent ENB localizations between October 2018 and October 2019 by the same surgeon in our center were included in the study. The cumulative sum (CUSUM) method was used to analyze the learning curve of ENB localization.
    Results: A total of 89 ENB localization from 64 patients were included in this study. The learning curve was divided into 3 phases: Phase I (the initial 11 cases), Phase II (the 12th to the 47th cases), and Phase III (the 47th to the 89th cases). The success rate of ENB localization has increased with the accumulation of operational experience in 3 phases (72.73%, 91.67%, and 97.62%, P=0.049). The distance from the ENB guide wire tip to the center of the lesion in Phase I was significantly longer than those in Phase II and Phase III (2.46±1.76
    Conclusions: The technical competency, which is indicated by higher success rate, localization accuracy, and shorter OT, for ENB-guided preoperative PNs localization was achieved at the 47th operation.
