Lung transplantation is currently the only recognized effective treatment for end-stage lung disease and has improved the quality of life for patients. However, lung transplantation still faces many challenges, including rejection, infection, post-transplant acute kidney injury, post-transplant diabetes mellitus, ischemia-reperfusion injury and donor shortage, etc. Chinese lung transplantation scholars made a series of important progress in the field of clinical research in 2024, focusing on the study and solution of the above problems, and providing new ideas for lung transplantation surgery. This article systematically reviews the clinical research and technological innovation in the field of lung transplantation in 2024, summarizes the achievements of clinical research in the field of lung transplantation in China in 2024, and aims to providing new directions and strategies for future research.

Objective:To investigate the status of evidence-based nursing competence among clinical nurses in tertiary grade A hospitals of Anhui province, and analyze the influencing factors based on random forest model, so as to provide reference for improving the evidence-based nursing ability of clinical nurses and formulating intervention strategies.Methods:The convenience sampling method was used to select 543 clinical nurses from 4 tertiary grade A hospitals in Anhui Province from October to December 2022. The general data questionnaire, Evidence-based Nursing Competence Scale, Information Literacy Scale, and Nurse Innovation Ability Scale were used to investigate. The random forest model was used to evaluate the importance of the influencing factors. The Lasso regression analysis was used to complete the screening of the influencing factors. The influencing factors of the evidence-based nursing competence among clinical nurses were explored by multiple linear regression analysis.Results:A total of 543 valid questionnaires were retrieved. Among 543 clinical nurses, 55 males and 388 females, aged (32.34 ± 6.93) years old. Evidence-based nursing competence scored (45.49 ± 21.18) points, information literacy scored (73.50 ± 10.47) points, innovation ability scored (126.78 ± 21.99) points. The random forest model and Lasso regression analysis showed that the model achieved the best fit with 8 variables. In order of importance, the top 8 variables were information literacy (25.78%), innovation ability (22.37%), night shift per month (9.91%), educational background (9.19%), English proficiency (8.44%), professional title (6.71%), scientific research and innovation experience (5.17%), and professional attitude (4.50%). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that information literacy, innovation ability, and English proficiency were the influencing factors of evidence-based nursing competence among clinical nurses ( t=9.17, 7.31, 2.52, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The level of evidence-based nursing ability among clinical nurses in tertiary grade A hospitals of Anhui province needs to be improved. From the perspective of improving the information literacy among clinical nurses, nursing managers can increase the training of information retrieval ability and English ability, enhance their English literature reading skills, pay attention to the cultivation of nurses' innovation ability, stimulate the innovative consciousness and thinking among clinical nurses, formulate and implement targeted interventions, so as to gradually improve the level of evidence-based nursing ability among clinical nurses.

OBJECTIVE To observe the auxiliary analgesic effect of electroacupuncture at Hegu and Neiguan combined with in-domethacin suppository in patients undergoing transvaginal ultrasound-guided oocyte retrieval(TUGOR and its effect on the outcome of in vitro fertilization(IVF.METHODS 64 IVF-ET patients undergoing TUGOR were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group,32 cases in each group.One case dropped out of the treatment group during the treatment.The control group was given indomethacin suppository rectal administration,and the treatment group was given electroacupuncture at Hegu and Neiguan in addition to the treatment of the control group.The patients'tenderness threshold,VAS score,pain grade score,respiratory rate,and pulse rate were evaluated before and after TUGOR operation.The number of oocytes obtained,the rate of two pronuclei(2PN,embryo utiliza-tion rate,and high-quality embryo rate were evaluated after TUGOR operation.The adverse reactions of the two groups were monitored during and after operation.RESULTS After TUGOR operation,the VAS score and pain grade of the treatment group were signifi-cantly lower than those of the control group(P<0.01;the tenderness threshold of the two groups was significantly reduced after opera-tion(P<0.05,P<0.01,and the treatment group was better than the control group(P<0.05;the incidence of nausea during opera-tion,abdominal distension and nausea 48 h after operation in the treatment group were better than those in the control group(P<0.05;the high-quality embryo rate in the treatment group was better than that in the control group(P<0.05.CONCLUSION Electroacupuncture at Hegu and Neiguan combined with indomethacin suppository can effectively assist in analgesia,and can reduce the incidence of adverse reactions during and after TUGOR to varying degrees,and may have certain advantages in improving the rate of high-quality embryos.

Objective To evaluate the impact of ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene(UHMWPE)-Ribbond fi-bers,when combined with different restorative materials,on fracture resistance and marginal adaptation of isolated pri-mary molar defects,to provide a reference for clinical practice.Methods This study was approved by the Ethics Re-view Committee.A total of 72 extracted primary molars with complete crowns were collected,and 66 primary molars were randomly assigned as experimental groups for the fracture resistance and microleakage tests.The molars were di-vided into six groups(n=11)based on the type of restorative materials and the application of Ribbond fibers:Group A1,3M Filtek Z250+Ribbond;Group A2,3M Filtek Z250;Group B1,Beautifil Ⅱ LS+Ribbond;Group B2,Beautifil Ⅱ LS;Group C1,3M Filtek Bulk Fill+Ribbond;and Group C2,3M Filtek Bulk Fill.Groups A1,B1 and C1 received the fiber-reinforcing technique,whereas Groups A2,B2 and C2 received the direct restorative technique;the remainings were in Group D(blank control group),which did not receive treatment for the fracture resistance test.The fracture re-sistance test was divided into six experimental groups and one blank control group(n=6).Primary molar teeth in each experimental group were prepared with Class Ⅱ cavities and filled.The fracture load of all samples was detected,and the fracture mode was analyzed after thermal cycling.The microleakage test was divided into six experimental groups,with five in each group.Class Ⅰ cavities with a diameter of 3 mm and depth of 2.5 mm were prepared within the mesial and distal marginal ridges on the occlusal surface and filled for primary molars in each group.Marginal microleakage was assessed after thermal cycling.Results The fracture resistance test results showed that the fracture resistance in groups that received the fiber-reinforcing technique was greater than that in groups that received the direct restorative technique:Group A1>Group A2,Group B1>Group B2,Group C1>Group C2(P<0.05).The application of Ribbond fibers increased fracture resistance to all tested restorative materials by 37.08％to 39.34％.The proportion of tooth frac-ture decreased significantly in groups A1,C1 compared with A2,C2,with a significant increase in the occurrence rate of"Repairable"(P<0.05).The fracture resistance in Group A1 was significantly greater than that in Group B1 and Group C1(P<0.05).The marginal microleakage test results showed that the microleakage depth in groups that received the fiber-reinforcing technique was smaller than that in groups that received the direct restorative technique:Group A1

Fibrosis is one of the key factors that lead to the immune exclusion of solid tumors. Although degradation of fiber is a promising strategy, its application was still bottlenecked by the side effects of causing metastasis, resulting in the failure of immunotherapy. Here, we developed an antimetastatic polymer (HPA) for the delivery of chemo-drug and antifibrotic siPAI-1 to form the nano-permeator. Nano-permeator shrank after protonation and deeply penetrated into the tumor core to down-regulate the expression of PAI-1 for antifibrosis, and further promoted the sustained infiltration and activation of T cells for killing tumor cells. Moreover, metastasis after fiber elimination was prevented by multivalent CXCR4 antagonistic HPA to reduce the attraction of CXCL12 secreted by distant organs. The administration of stroma-alleviated immunotherapy increased the infiltration of CD8⁺ T cells to 52.5% in tumor tissues, inhibiting nearly 90% metastasis by HPA in distant organs. The nano-permeator reveals the mechanism and correlation between antifibrosis and antimetastasis and was believed to be the optimizing immunotherapy for solid fibrotic tumors.

Objectives:To analyze the factors relative to the short-term preservation of ipsilateral renal function after partial nephrectomy.Methods:The clinical data of 83 patients who were treated with partial nephrectomy from December 2014 to December 2019 in the Department of Urology, Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center were retrospectively analyzed. There were 54 males and 29 females, aging ( M (IQR)) 49 (17) years (range: 27 to 74 years). The ischemia time in operation was 25 (18) minutes (range: 10 to 67 minutes). Emission computed tomography scan and CT scan were performed before (within 1 month) and after (3 to 12 months) surgery. The volume of the ipsilateral and contralateral kidney was measured on the basis of preoperative and postoperative CT scans. The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) specifically in each kidney was estimated by emission computed tomography. Recovery from ischemia is determined by the formula: GFR preservation/volume saved×100%. Linear regression was used to explore the factors ralative to the short-term preservation of ipsilateral renal function after partial nephrectomy. Results:The GFR preservation of the ipsilateral kidney was 80.9 (25.2) % (range: 31.0% to 109.4%). The volume loss of the kidney resulted in a decrease of 12.0% (5.8 ml/(min×1.96 m 2)) of GFR, while the ischemic injury resulted in a decrease of 6.5% (2.5 ml/(min×1.96 m 2)) of GFR. The volume saved from the ipsilateral kidney was 87.1 (12.9) % (range: 27.0% to 131.7%). Recovery from ischemia was 93.5 (17.5) % (range:44.3% to 178.3%). In multivariate analysis, GFR preservation of the ipsilateral kidney was significantly correlated with the volume saved of the ipsilateral kidney ( β=0.383, 95% CI: 0.144 to 0.622, P=0.002). It was not related to the ischemia time ( β=0.046, 95% CI:-0.383 to 0.475, P=0.831). Conclusion:In the condition of limited ischemic time, in the short term ipsilateral renal function after partial nephrectomy is mainly determined by the loss of kidney volume, while ischemic injury only plays a minor role.

The flow rate was 1.0 ml/min; the column temperature was 30 ℃; the detection wavelengths were 230 nm (paeoniflorin), 254 nm (calycosin glycoside, ononin, calycosin, fermononetin), 322 nm (ferulic acid) and 403 nm (hydroxysafflor yellow A); the drift tube temperature of the evaporative light scattering detector was 60 ℃; the carrier gas flow rate was 1.6 L/min.Results:Under these conditions, the separation of hydroxysafflor yellow A, paeoniflorin, calycosin glycoside, ferulic acid, ononin, calycosin, fermononetin and astragaloside was good, and the linear relationship was in line with the requirements ( r=0.994 0-0.999 9). The average recovery was 97.8% - 101.4% ( RSD was 1.28% - 3.70%). Conclusion:The method is simple, stable and reproducible, and can be used for the quality control of Buyang Huanwu Decoction.

Objective:To explore the spatial and temporal distribution patterns of emerging snail-infested sites in different environmental types in Yunnan Province.Methods:The data of snail-infested sites in Yunnan Province from 1950 to 2014 (from Yunnan Institute for Endemic Diseases Control and Prevention), were collected and sorted out, a spatial and temporal database on the distribution of emerging snail-infested sites were established, and the changes in the spatial and temporal distribution of emerging snail-infested sites in different environments types (ditches, tangerines, paddy fields, dry land, beaches and other environments) were studied by using spatial autocorrelation analysis and scanning statistics analysis.Results:From 1950 to 2014, the annual number of emerging snail-infested sites in Yunnan Province reached a peak (1 730) in 1955 and then showed a fluctuating downward trend. From 1993 to 2014, the number of emerging snail-infested sites remained below 100, and increased to 160 and 131, respectively, in 2004 and 2013. The longest mean duration of 43.85 years was recorded for the beaches environment for emerging snail-infested sites, followed by the paddy fields environment with a mean duration of 37.01 years, and the shortest mean duration of 20.44 years for the tangerines environment. Spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that there was a positive spatial correlation between the duration of emerging snail-infested sites of different environmental types (global Moran's I ranged from 0.43 to 0.64, P < 0.05). Scanning statistics analysis showed that emerging snail-infested sites of different environmental types had spatial and temporal aggregation ( P < 0.001), with 3- 6 clusters of statistically significant aggregation detected respectively. Conclusion:The emerging snail-infested sites in different environments types in Yunnan Province have spatial and temporal aggregation, and it is necessary to strengthen monitoring and prevention and control of the aggregation areas of different environment types to prevent further spread of the snail.

Objective: To construct nomogram to predict the risk of bone metastasis in patients with non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC). Methods: The clinical data of NSCLC patients diagnosed in the hospital were retrospectively analyzed, including the occurrence of bone metastasis, age, gender, pathological type, smoking status, PS score, TN stage, metastasis of other sites before bone metastasis, carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA) level, alpha fetoprotein(AFP) level, serum calcium(Ca2+), serum phosphorus(P), alkaline phosphatase(ALP) level, which were determined by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC) and decision curve analysis were used, DCA was used to verify the accuracy and clinical benefit of the model, and nomogram was used to visualize the model. Results: Area under the ROC curve(AUC) showed that in the modeling group(n=138) and the validation group(n=92), the AUC value predicted by combined indicators(age, gender, pathological type, CEA, ALP)(modeling group=0.792, validation group=0.629) was higher than that predicted by single indicator. Conclusion The prediction model constructed in this study has good effect and can provide reference for clinical screening of high-risk patients with bone metastasis of NSCLC.
