Objective To systematically analyze the literature characteristics of Journal of Organ Transplantation since its inception. Methods Using the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) academic journal full-text database as the data source, all articles published in the Journal of Organ Transplantation from January 2010 to August 2025 were retrieved. After excluding non-academic papers, a total of 1 568 research papers were included. R language 4.3.0, Bibliometrix package 3.2.1, and Citespace software were used to analyze the number of publications, publishing institutions, authors, keywords and other aspects. Results The number of publications in Journal of Organ Transplantation increased from an average of 82 articles per year in the early years after its inception to 113 articles per year in recent years, a growth of 37.8%. The geographical distribution of publishing institutions covers 32 provinces, cities and autonomous regions nationwide, mainly concentrated in the South China, East China and North China regions, and has now basically covered the central and western regions in recent years. The author collaboration network includes 45 authors distributed across 7 major collaboration clusters, forming a stable multi-level national research system centered on key university-affiliated hospitals. The high-frequency keywords are dominated by "liver transplantation" (425 times) and "kidney transplantation" (396 times). The theme evolution shows a clear three-stage characteristic: initially focusing on clinical technology application, deepening to immune mechanism exploration in the middle stage, and recently (since 2022) focusing on cutting-edge research areas such as xenotransplantation. Conclusions Journal of Organ Transplantation has witnessed the rapid development of China's organ transplantation cause, fully reflecting the research status and trends in China's organ transplantation field, and has provided an important platform for the future development and international cooperation in China's organ transplantation field.

Aim To investigate the effect of metformin on epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)of lung cancer A549 cells and its underlying mechanism.Methods Lung cancer A549 cells were cultured in vitro and treated with metformin.Cell morphology was observed by fluorescence staining.The mRNA expres-sion levels of E-cadherin,N-cadherin,SMA and Vimen-tin were detected by RT-PCR.The regulatory effects of metformin on EMT in A549 cellswere examined by high-throughput sequencing.An EMT model was estab-lished through TGF-β1 induction.Following metformin treatment,the morphology of A549 cells was observed.Western blot was employed to determine the expression levels of NGF,E-cadherin,N-cadherin,SMA and Vim-entin.Additionally,si-NGF transfection was performed to evaluate the protein expressions of E-cadherin,N-cadherin,SMA and Vimentin in A549 cells,and a cell scratch assay was conducted to assess cell migration.Results After metformin treatment,A549 cells exhibi-ted a loss of mesenchymal-like morphology,character-ized by a transition to a round shape,a reduction in colony formation,and decreased adherence.RT-PCR and high-throughput sequencing revealed a down-regu-lation in the expression of genes associated with mesen-chymal transition,including N-cadherin,SMA,and Vim-entin,and an up-regulation in the expression of genes associated with epithelial transformation,such as ZO-1 and E-cadherin.Additionally,the expression of nerve growth factor(NGF)was significantly up-regulated.Following transfection with si-NGF,A549 cells treated with metformin exhibited a down-regulation in the ex-pression of the epithelial marker E-cadherin,concomi-tant with an up-regulation in the expression of stromal markers N-cadherin,Vimentin,and SMA.Conclusions Metformin can up-regulate the expression of E-cad-herin and down-regulate the expression of N-cadherin,Vimentin and SMA in lung cancer A549 cells,thereby inhibiting EMT.Additionally,NGF signaling molecules may play a significant role in this process.

Objective To construct a fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model based on the analytic hierarchy process(AHP)to evaluate the quality of hemodialysis machines.Methods Firstly,the influencing factors for the quality of hemodialysis machines were determined with considerations on the requirements for medical technology assessment of medical devices and the hospital's many years of experience in use,maintenance and management of hemodialysis machines,and the indicators of the evaluation model were set with the general attributes of the product quality as the criterion level and the influencing factors as the sub-criterion level.Secondly,the AHP was used to qualitatively and quantitatively analyze relevant factors to construct a hierarchical judgment matrix,and the quality evaluation indicator weights for hemodylysis machines were determined with the consistency test.Finally,the operational principles of fuzzy mathematics were applied to establishing a fuzzy judgment matrix,and the evaluation results were calculated using Type Ⅳ fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model.Results The constructed fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model included one first-level indicator,seven second-level indicators and 21 third-level indicators.All the first-and second-level indicators passed the consistency tests.The evaluation results obtained with this model were practical and consistent with the hospital's long-term record data on hemodialysis machines.Conclusion The constructed fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model demonstrates a certain degree of scientific rigor for quality assessment of hemodialysis machines and can provide decision-making support for their procurement justification.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(9):81-87]

Under the influence of long-term space flights and the confined space environment,it is very easy to induce space depression syndrome,mainly manifested as decreased emotional stability,sleep disorders,mental fatigue,etc.,which seriously affect the living conditions and working abilities of astronauts.The current treatment methods mainly focus on psychological support and drug intervention.Acupuncture has a good effect in treating depression.Therefore,starting from the TCM pathogenesis and modern medical pathogenesis of aerospace depression syndrome,we conducted literature retrieval from databases such as the Chinese Medical Classic,China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),Wanfang,VIP,PubMed,and Web of science.For the included literature,we adopted the stratified evidence scoring method and combined the TCM mechanism and modern medical mechanism of the effect of acupuncture.A prescription for acupuncture points was constructed to provide a basis for selecting acupuncture points for the prevention of aerospace depression syndrome through acupuncture.

ObjectiveGliomas in the motor functional area can damage the corticospinal tract (CST), leading to motor dysfunction. Currently, there is a lack of unified methods for evaluating the extent of CST damage, especially in patients with high surgical risk where the minimum distance from the lesion to the CST is less than 10 mm. This study aims to further clarify the classification method and clinical significance of CST morphological changes in these patients. MethodsThis retrospective study analyzed 109 high-risk functional area glioma patients who underwent neurosurgical treatment with preoperative diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) imaging and intraoperative neurostimulation guidance between 2014 and 2024. All patients had a lesion-to-tract distance (LTD) of less than 10 mm between the CST and the lesion. Preoperative DTI evaluation of CST involvement-induced morphological changes were reviewed. Patients were divided into 3 groups: 17 cases (15.6%) with symmetric CST morphology compared to the healthy side (CST symmetry), 48 cases (44.0%) with significant CST morphology changes compared to the healthy side (CST deformation), and 44 cases (40.4%) with CST overlap with the tumor (CST overlap). Then we classified patients according to preoperative assessment of tumor-induced morphological changes, and analyze postoperative motor function for each category. ResultsPostoperative pathology showed a significantly higher proportion of high-grade gliomas (HGG) in the CST overlap group compared to the other two groups (P=0.001). Logistic regression analysis showed that CST overlap was a predictor of HGG (P=0.000). The rate of total tumor resection in the CST deformation group and overlap group was lower than in the CST symmetric group (P=0.008). There was a total of 41 postoperative hemiplegic patients, with 4 cases (23.5%) in the CST symmetric group, 11 cases (22.9%) in the CST deformation group, and 26 cases (59.1%) in the CST overlap group. CST overlap with the tumor predicted postoperative hemiplegia (P=0.016). Two-way ANOVA analysis of the affected/healthy side and CST morphology groups showed significant main effects of CST grouping and healthy-affected side (P=0.017 and P=0.010), with no significant interaction (P=0.31). The fractional anisotropy (FA) value in the CST overlap group and the affected side was lower. A decrease in the FA value on the affected side predicted postoperative hemiplegia (sensitivity 69.2%, specificity 71.9%). ConclusionWe have established a method to predict postoperative hemiplegia in high-risk motor functional area glioma patients based on preoperative CST morphological changes. CST overlap leads to a decrease in CST FA values. This method can be used for precise patient management and aid in accurate preoperative surgical planning.

Objective: To investigate the distribution of IgM anti-A/B titers among group O whole blood donors in Jiangsu, establish a low-titer threshold, and analyze the demographic characteristics of low-titer donors, so as to provide data for recruiting low-titer group O whole blood (LTOWB) donors. Methods: Plasma samples from 1 009 group O whole blood donors were tested for IgM anti-A and anti-B titers using the microplate technique. The distribution of antibody titers was analyzed to establish a low-titer threshold. The distribution trends of titers across different demographic groups were also analyzed. Results: The peak titer for anti-A, anti-B were 64 (31.5%), 4 (23.8%), respectively, The proportion of donors with both anti-A and anti-B titers below 64 was 97.3% (982/1 009). The mean anti-A titer was higher than anti-B titer. Anti-A titers were higher in female donors than in male donors (P<0.05). The anti-A titers differed significantly among different age groups (P<0.05). However, no significant difference in titers was observed based on the number of donations (P>0.05). Conclusion: A titer of 64 can be used as the reference threshold of LTOWB in Jiangsu. Male donors of appropriate age are more suitable than female donors for establishing an emergency panel of LTOWB mobile donors.
