Article Abstract
The Chinese Society for Therapeutic Radiology Oncology, the Chinese Anti-Cancer Association, the Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology, the Head and Neck Cancer International Group, the European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology, and the American Society for Radiation Oncology collaboratively developed evidence-based guidelines and a comprehensive contouring atlas for neck target volume delineation in nasopharyngeal carcinoma. These guidelines address five key challenges in modern radiotherapy practice: margin design of clinical target volume; nodal target volume delineation after induction chemotherapy; delineation of equivocal nodes evident on imaging; low-risk clinical target volume delineation based on regional stepwise extension patterns; and modifications for anatomical boundaries of lymphatic areas. Developed through a rigorous systematic review and expert appraisal process by a panel of 50 international, multidisciplinary members from 17 countries and regions, these guidelines incorporate the latest advances in nasopharyngeal carcinoma diagnosis and treatment. They reflect contemporary therapeutic concepts and elaborate on current practice variations. These guidelines aim to standardise global practice, substantially improving consistency and reducing variability in nasopharyngeal carcinoma radiotherapy target delineation.

Effects of Geniposide on Cerebral Ischemia/Reperfusion-Induced Neuron Damage by Inhibiting Autophagy via cGAS-STING.
Neuropharmacology
September 2025
College of Pharmacy, Shanghai University of Medicine and Health Sciences, Shanghai, China. Electronic address:
Aim Of The Study: This study aimed to investigate the protective effects of Geniposide (GEN) against cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury by targeting the cGAS-STING pathway and modulating autophagy in neuronal cells.
Materials And Methods: In vivo middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion (MCAO/R) model and an in vitro oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R) model to mimic the pathology of cerebral ischemic stroke in humans. Behavioral tests, tissue staining to assess neurological deficits and tissue damage in mice.
Optimal stimulation site and fiber tracts in subthalamic deep brain stimulation for Meige syndrome.
Brain Stimul

Department of Neurosurgery, the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital, Beijing, China; Department of Neurosurgery, Neuromedicine Center, Beijing Shijitan Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China. Electronic address:
Background: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) has emerged as an effective therapy for Meige syndrome (MS). However, the optimal stimulation site within STN and the most effective stimulation fiber tracts have not been investigated.
Methods: Based on the discovery cohort (n = 65), we first identified the optimal stimulation site within the STN using the sweet spot mapping method.
Comparative dosimetric analysis of base dose and gradient-based optimization in overlapping regions of extended target volumes using an anthropomorphic phantom.
Radiol Phys Technol
September 2025
Division of Medical Physics, Department of Radiation Oncology, Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Institute and Research Center, New Delhi, 110085, India.
This study compares the dosimetric performance of Base Dose Optimization (BDO) and Gradient-Based Optimization (GBO) for extended target volumes in Total Body Irradiation (TBI). The focus is on overlapping regions using the Rando Phantom. The study evaluates dose distribution, conformity, homogeneity, and sensitivity to positional deviations.

Objectives: To report outcomes of complete ultrasound-guided percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) for horseshoe kidney (HSK) stones at a high-volume center and evaluate a novel technique (Needle-perc-assisted endoscopic surgery, NAES) for these patients.
Patients And Methods: We retrospectively reviewed all HSK stone patients who underwent PCNL at our institution over a 10-year period. The NAES technique was utilized during the most recent 4 years.
