Objective: To systematically review the modeling strategies, primary outcomes, and quantifiable effects in animal models of transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI), transfusion-associated circulatory overload (TACO), acute hemolytic transfusion reaction (AHTR), and related transfusion paradigms. Subgroup meta-analysis was designated as the primary analytical framework, with the overall pooled effect treated as exploratory. Methods: We searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) from inception to December 30, 2025. Eligible studies utilized animal models to simulate transfusion-related adverse reactions and provided extractable quantitative outcomes. The SYRCLE tool was used to assess the risk of bias. Random-effects models were employed to calculate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Prespecified subgroup analyses were conducted for TRALI, TACO, AHTR, and donor sex-related transfusion paradigms. Additional analyses included funnel plots, Egger/Begg tests, leave-one-out sensitivity analyses, and meta-regression based on publication year. Results: Twenty-one studies comprising 24 independent comparisons were included in the quantitative synthesis. The overall pooled estimate was OR=1.07 (95% CI:0.69-1.66), with substantial heterogeneity (I
=96%). Subgroup analyses yielded the following estimates: TRALI, OR=0.83 (95%CI:0.57-1.21, I
=97%); TACO, OR=1.85 (95%CI:0.54-6.34, I
=93%); donor sex-related paradigms, OR=1.49 (95%CI:1.02-2.17, I
=85%); and AHTR, OR=0.26 (95%CI:0.10-0.64, I
=0%). Between-subgroup differences were statistically significant (P<0.000 1). Publication year was positively correlated with effect size (P=0.001 4). Most studies demonstrated unclear risk of bias across several SYRCLE domains due to incomplete methodological reporting. Conclusion: Animal models of transfusion-related adverse reactions exhibit significant structural heterogeneity across syndrome categories. Therefore, subgroup-specific and narrative syntheses are recommended as the primary presentation framework, rather than relying on a single overall pooled effect. Complement-targeted interventions in AHTR models demonstrated a consistent protective signal. In contrast, TRALI and TACO models require greater standardization in modeling protocols and endpoint definitions to reduce methodological variability.

Objective:To evaluate the association between heatwaves and fall-related mortality.Methods:A total of 61 421 fall-related mortality from 2013 to 2022 in 7 provinces of China were included in a time-stratified case-crossover design, with daily meteorological data derived from the fifth generation European Reanalysis dataset produced by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts. Conditional logistic regression chimeric distributed lag nonlinear model was used to analyze the association between heatwaves and fall-related mortality and stratified analysis was conducted according to gender and age.Results:Heatwaves were associated with an increased risk of fall-related morality. The risk of fall-related mortality during heatwaves was higher than during non-heatwave periods ( OR=1.11, 95% CI: 1.05-1.18). The attributable fraction of fall-related motality due to heatwaves was 10.25% (95% CI: 4.49%-15.36%). For each 1 ℃ increase above the heatwave threshold, the risk of fall-related mortality increased by 34% ( OR=1.34, 95% CI: 1.02-1.76). The effect of heatwave duration on fall-related mortality was not statistically significant. Stratified analyses indicated that women experienced a higher risk of fall-related mortality during heatwaves ( OR=1.13, 95% CI: 1.04-1.22) compared to man ( OR=1.10, 95% CI: 1.04-1.17). Conclusions:Heatwave increases the risk of fall-related mortality, and the intensity of heatwaves modify this risk. Women are vulnerable populations.

Objective:To evaluate the impact of short-term exposure to daytime heatwaves, nighttime heatwaves, and compound heatwaves on the risk of road traffic mortality and calculate the attributable mortality burden.Methods:This study collected road traffic mortality data from the Disease Surveillance System in Guangdong, Hunan, Zhejiang, Yunnan, and Jilin Provinces from 2013 to 2018. A time-stratified case-crossover design was used in this study, with the death date for each case serving as the case day. Control days were selected from the same year, month, and day of the week as the case day. A conditional logistic regression model was employed to estimate the cumulative associations of short-term exposure to daytime heatwaves, nighttime heatwaves, and compound heatwaves on the risk of road traffic mortality (lag 0-1 day) and to calculate the attributable fractions (AF).Results:Compared to non-heatwave days, the excess risk ( ER) of road traffic mortality on daytime heatwave days, nighttime heatwave days, and compound heatwave days was 5.3% (95% CI: 0.5%-10.2%), 4.9% (95% CI: 0.5%-9.4%) and 7.5% (95% CI: 2.3%- 12.9%), with corresponding AF of 5.0% (95% CI: 0.5%-9.3%), 4.7% (95% CI: 0.5%-8.6%), and 6.9% (95% CI: 2.3%-11.4%), respectively. Stratified analysis showed that the risk of traffic mortalities caused by daytime heatwaves was higher in females ( ER=15.7%, 95% CI: 5.8%-26.5%) than in males ( ER=1.8%, 95% CI: -3.6%-7.4%). Elderly individuals over 64 years old ( ER=10.9%, 95% CI: 0.3%- 22.6%) had a higher risk of road traffic mortalities from compound heatwaves than those under 45 years old ( ER=2.6%, 95% CI: -5.4%-11.2%). The risk of road traffic injury mortality from motor vehicle accidents caused by compound heatwaves ( ER=16.6%, 95% CI:2.4%-32.7%) was higher than that from non-motor vehicle accidents ( ER=5.7%, 95% CI:0.1%-11.5%). Conclusions:Short-term exposure to daytime heatwaves, nighttime heatwaves, and compound heatwaves was associated with an increased risk of road traffic mortality, with the strongest association observed for compound heatwaves. The mortality burden attributable to compound heatwaves was higher than that for daytime and nighttime heatwaves. Heatwaves were more significantly associated with road traffic mortality risk among females, elderly individuals over 64 years old, and motor vehicle accidents.
