Objective To conduct a comprehensive review of the risk factors for post-transplant pulmonary infection in kidney transplant recipients. Methods Following the methodology guidelines for systematic reviews, the research question was clearly defined. Systematic searches were conducted in both Chinese and English literature databases, with the search period ranging from the establishment of the database to May 1, 2025. Two researchers independently screened and extracted the risk factors related to post-transplant pulmonary infection in kidney transplant recipients, and the research results were qualitatively described. Results A total of 45 articles were finally included, involving 30 risk factors for post-transplant pulmonary infection in kidney transplant recipients, including five aspects as donor factors, recipient factors, disease factors, treatment factors and laboratory test result factors. Conclusions The occurrence of post-transplant pulmonary infection in kidney transplant recipients is related to donor factors, recipient factors, disease factors, treatment factors and laboratory test result factors, providing a reference for clinical prevention, screening, and intervention.

Mechanical pain is one of the most common causes of clinical pain, but there remains a lack of effective treatment for debilitating mechanical and chronic forms of neuropathic pain. Recently, neurotoxin GsMTx4, a selective mechanosensitive (MS) channel inhibitor, has been found to be effective, while the underlying mechanism remains elusive. Here, with multiple rodent pain models, we demonstrated that a GsMTx4-based 17-residue peptide, which we call P10581, was able to reduce mechanical hyperalgesia and neuropathic pain. The analgesic effects of P10581 can be as strong as morphine but is not toxic in animal models. The anti-hyperalgesic effect of the peptide was resistant to naloxone (an μ-opioid receptor antagonist) and showed no side effects of morphine, including tolerance, motor impairment, and conditioned place preference. Pharmacological inhibition of TRPV4 by P10581 in a heterogeneous expression system, combined with the use of Trpv4 knockout mice indicates that TRPV4 channels may act as the potential target for the analgesic effect of P10581. Our study identified a potential drug for curing mechanical pain and exposed its mechanism.

Immunotherapy has become a pivotal modality in clinical cancer treatment. However, its effectiveness is limited to a small subset of patients due to the low antigenicity, impaired innate response, and various adaptive immune resistance mechanisms of the tumor microenvironment (TME). Accumulating evidence reveals the critical roles of metal elements in shaping immunity against tumor progression and metastasis. The marriage of metalloimmunotherapy and nanotechnology further presents new opportunities to optimize the physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties of metal ions in a precise spatiotemporal control manner. Several metallodrugs have demonstrated encouraging immunotherapeutic potential in preliminary studies and are currently undergoing clinical trials at different stages, yet challenges persist in scaling up production and addressing long-term biosafety concerns. This review delineates how metal materials modulate biological activities across diverse cell types to orchestrate antitumor immunity. Moreover, it summarizes recent progress in smart drug delivery-release systems integrating metal elements, either as cargo or vehicles, to enhance antitumor immune responses. Finally, the review introduces current clinical applications of nanomedicines in metalloimmunotherapy and discusses potential challenges that impede its widespread translation into clinical practice.

Objective To explore the effect of ultrasound-guided individualized respiratory management on pulmonary ventilation in neonates with severe respiratory diseases in neonatal intensive care unit(NICU).Methods A total of 96 children with severe respiratory disease in NICU of the hospital were selected as research subjects.According to the random number table method,they were divided into the observation group and the control group,with 48 cases in each group.The control group was treated with routine respiratory management,and the observation group was treated with severe ultrasound-guided individualized nursing management on the basis of the control group.The clinical indexes,blood gas analysis and respiratory dynamics indexes including arterial partial pressure of oxygen[p(O2)],partial pressure of carbon dioxide[p(CO2)],arterial blood pH,airway resistance,chest lung compliance and severity of disease[pediatric critical illness score(PCIS),simple neonatal acute physiology score II(SNAP-II)]and occurrence of complications were compared between the two groups before and after intervention.Results The mechanical ventilation time,antipyretic time,white blood cell count(WBC)recovery time,ICU stay and hospitalization time were significantly shorter in the observation group than those in the control group(P＜0.05).After intervention,p(O2),pH and chest lung compliance were significantly increased in the two groups(P＜0.05),while p(CO2)and airway resistance were significantly decreased(P＜0.05).Moreover,the improvement was better in the observation group than that of the control group.After intervention,the PCIS scores were significantly increased in both groups(P＜0.05),while the SNAP-II scores were significantly reduced(P＜0.05),and the improvement was better in the observation group than that of the control group(P＜0.05).The total complication rate was significantly lower in the observation group than that in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Severe ultrasound-guided individualized respiratory management can significantly enhance the pulmonary ventilation of NICU children with severe respiratory disease,improve the blood oxygen status and accelerate the improvement of disease condition.

BACKGROUND:Cartilage defects are one of the major clinical challenges faced by orthopedic surgeons.Tissue engineering is an interdisciplinary approach that combines knowledge of engineering and cell biology to provide new ideas and approaches for the repair of cartilage defects. OBJECTIVE:To prepare a multi-component composite scaffold based on silk fibroin,gelatin,and chitosan to screen for a three-dimensional porous scaffold suitable for cartilage regeneration by evaluating its physicochemical properties and biological performance. METHODS:Four groups of porous scaffolds were prepared by vacuum freeze-drying method using silk fibroin,gelatin and chitosan as the base materials,namely chitosan/gelatin scaffold,silk fibroin/chitosan scaffold,silk fibroin/gelatin scaffold and silk fibroin/chitosan/gelatin scaffold.The suitable cartilage scaffolds were screened by scanning electron microscopy,X-ray diffractometer,porosity,water absorption and swelling rate,biodegradation rate and mechanical property detection.Then cartilage scaffolds were co-cultured with chondrocytes isolated and extracted from patients with osteoarthritis.The feasibility of porous scaffolds for cartilage injury repair was evaluated in vitro by cell adhesion rate assay,cell live-dead staining and cell activity proliferation assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)All four groups of scaffolds had porous structures.The comprehensive physical performance test results showed that the silk fibroin/gelatin/chitosan scaffold was more in line with the requirements of cartilage defect repair.This scaffold had a pore size of(176.00±53.68)μm,the porosity of(80.15±2.57)%,and water absorption and swelling rate of(3 712±358)%.After immersion in PBS containing lysozyme for 28 days in vitro,the biodegradation rate was(46.87±3.25)%,and it had good mechanical properties.(2)Chondrocytes could adhere well on the silk fibroin/gelatin/chitosan scaffold,and the cell adhesion rate increased with time.CCK8 and live/dead cell double staining results showed that silk fibroin/gelatin/chitosan scaffold had good biocompatibility and low cytotoxicity.(3)The results showed that silk fibroin/gelatin/chitosan scaffold had a highly hydrated 3D structure,suitable pore size and porosity,good biodegradability and superior mechanical properties,which can provide a good reticular skeleton and microenvironment for nutrient transport and chondrocyte attachment and proliferation.
