Kidney transplantation is the most ideal treatment method for end-stage renal disease, significantly improving the survival rate and quality of life of patients. However, as the postoperative survival period gradually lengthens, chronic diseases have become the main obstacle affecting the long-term outcome of kidney transplantation. These chronic diseases have a high incidence, involve multiple organs and significantly impact prognosis. The core driving factors are mainly related to long-term immunosuppressive therapy. This article systematically discusses the occurrence mechanisms, prevention and treatment strategies, and classification management of common chronic diseases after kidney transplantation (mainly including chronic graft dysfunction, cardiovascular diseases, infections, malignant tumors, bone metabolism disorders, etc.). At the same time, it explores future development directions such as precision medicine, new immune modulators and remote management, emphasizing a comprehensive management model centered on "multidisciplinary collaboration + individualized treatment + continuous monitoring" to achieve long-term, systematic, and dynamic prevention and treatment of chronic diseases for kidney transplant recipients.

Ulcerative colitis （UC） is a chronic nonspecific inflammatory intestinal disease with a complex pathogenesis. Its recurrent attacks easily lead to persistent intestinal mucosal damage， resulting in a year-by-year increase in incidence and imposing a heavy burden on patients. Currently， the treatment of UC mainly relies on corticosteroids， immunosuppressants， and aminosalicylate preparations. However， these therapies are limited by significant side effects， strong drug resistance， and poor long-term prognosis. As one of the important inflammatory pathways， the Janus kinase 2 （JAK2）/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 （STAT3） signaling pathway can regulate the occurrence and development of UC through multiple pathways by modulating multiple downstream targets. Therefore， the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway offers a new research direction for the treatment of UC. Numerous studies have shown that the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway plays an important role in intestinal inflammatory responses， intestinal mucosal barrier damage， T helper cell 17 （Th17）/regulatory T cell （Treg） immune imbalance， intestinal epithelial cell apoptosis， and oxidative stress. Chinese medicine has attracted increasing attention because of its unique advantages， including fewer side effects， individualized diagnosis and treatment， and enhancement of efficacy with reduction of toxicity. In addition to traditional Chinese herbal formulas， more Chinese medicine monomers and extracts have played key roles because of their more precise therapeutic targets. In recent years， many studies have confirmed that Chinese medicine can exert therapeutic effects on UC by interfering with the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway， thereby alleviating intestinal inflammatory responses， repairing the intestinal mucosal barrier， regulating the balance of Th17/Treg immune cells， inhibiting intestinal epithelial cell apoptosis， and suppressing oxidative stress. This article summarizes and reviews recent research progress in this field from three aspects， including an overview of the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway， the relationship between the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway and UC， and the regulatory mechanisms of traditional Chinese medicine， with the aim of providing a theoretical basis for the future clinical treatment of UC and drug development.

Objective:To construct a VP8-mRNA vaccine using human rotavirus spike protein VP8 domain as the immunogen and analyze its immunogenicity in mice.Methods:The VP8-mRNA sequence was designed, optimized, and synthesized. The VP8 gene of rotavirus G1P[8] type was used to construct the plasmid pUC57-VP8-Kan-SapⅠ, which was then sequenced. The plasmid confirmed by sequencing was subjected to large-scale amplification and extraction, followed by linearization, in vitro transcription, and capping. The purified capped products were encapsulated with lipid nanoparticles using a microfluidic control apparatus. The encapsulated VP8-mRNA vaccine was administered intramuscularly to mice at 10, 15, and 20 μg. Serum samples were collected for antibody detection by ELISA. Cellular immune responses were detected by flow cytometry and ELISPOT. Statistical analysis was performed using one-way or two-way analysis of variance and Tukey-Kramer test. Results:The encapsulated VP8-mRNA vaccine was rounded and spherical, with a particle size of about 100 nm, a polymer dispersion index of 0.088, and an encapsulation rate of 92.3%. Two doses of VP8-mRNA vaccine immunization could induce a good immune response in mice. The level of IgG antibody induced after immunization in the 15 μg group was comparable to that of the 20 μg group, and there was no statistical difference ( P>0.05), but the antibody levels in the two groups were significantly higher than that in the 10 μg group ( P<0.000 1). VP8-mRNA vaccine could induce neutralizing antibodies against rotavirus G1 and G9 types. The highest level of neutralizing antibodies against rotavirus type G1 was observed in the 15 μg group, which was significantly higher than that in the 10 μg group ( P<0.05). All immunization groups exhibited good neutralizing ability against rotavirus G9 type. The results of ELISPOT showed that lymphocytes from mice in each vaccine group were able to secrete IFN-γ when stimulated with VP8 peptide. Flow cytometry showed that the proportions of CD8 + T cell subsets in the vaccine groups were higher than that in the control group. Conclusion:The VP8-mRNA vaccine has good immunogenicity in mice and can induce good humoral and T-cell immune responses.

Objective:To analyze the drug-resistance pattern and molecular epidemiological characteristics of Enterobacteriales carrying the blaNDM gene in Lishui, aiming to guide clinical anti-infection treatment. Methods:Non-duplicate blaNDM-carrying Enterobacteriales, isolated from Lishui Central Hospital, were collected and identified by VITEK MS. The minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) were detected by the broth microdilution method. The ST types of the strains were determined by multilocus sequence typing (MLST). Plasmid types were identified by transformation or conjugation experiments and replication initiator amplification experiments. The transposon structures were detected by PCR amplification. Finally, the epidemic regularity of blaNDM gene in Lishui was analyzed from three levels: clonal group, plasmid, and mobile genetic elements. Results:A total of 109 blaNDM-positive strains were collected. Among them, 60 strains carried the blaNDM-1 gene and 49 strains carried the blaNDM-5 gene. The 109 strains showed 100% resistance to ceftazidime and cefotaxime. The resistance rates to peracillin-tazobactam and imipenem were higher than 80%. Strains carrying the blaNDM-5 gene were more resistant to meropenem than those carrying blaNDM-1 gene( P<0.05). A total of 68 STs were detected from 109 strains, and IncX3, IncFⅡγ, IncA/C and IncT/R plasmids were detected, and 90.83% of the blaNDM genes were located in the IncX3 plasmid. Twelve types of blaNDM gene surrounding structures existed, and they all carried the highly conserved blaNDM- bleMBL- trpF gene sequence. Conclusions:The blaNDM gene has diverse transmission modes in Lishui. The IncX3 plasmid is the main factor mediating its transfer, and all strains carry highly conserved blaNDM- bleMBL- trpF gene sequence.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of unilateral biportal endoscopy (UBE) assisted bilateral decompression in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation with imaging herniation on one side and clinical symptoms on the contralateral side.Methods:A total of 20 patients with lumbar disc herniation with imaging herniation on one side and clinical symptoms on the contralateral side treated with UBE from January 2022 to January 2024 in the Affiliated Hospital of Binzhou Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. There were 9 males and 11 females, aged 50.4±14.0 years (range, 23-72 years). The intervertebral disc herniation level included L 3-4 in 1 case, L 4-5 in 15 cases, and L 5S 1 in 4 cases. There were 10 cases on the left side and 10 cases on the right side. The duration of symptoms was 24.1±33.7 months (range, 1-120 months). Visual analogue scale (VAS) and Oswestry disability index (ODI) were used to evaluate postoperative pain relief and functional recovery. The clinical efficacy was evaluated by modified MacNab criteria at 6 months after operation. Results:All patients successfully completed the operation. The operation time was 90.3±24.6 min (range, 55-134 mins). The VAS scores of patients at 3 days, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months after operation were 3.6±0.9, 2.2±0.7, 1.2±0.5 and 1.0±0.6, respectively, which were lower than those before operation (6.4±0.8), and the differences were statistically significant ( F=668.728, P<0.001). The ODI at 3 days, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months after operation were 34.2%±4.7%, 28.7%±2.8%, 24.3%±2.1% and 20.5%±2.0%, respectively, which were lower than 69.4%±5.2% before operation, and the differences were statistically significant ( F=515.578, P<0.001). The clinical efficacy was evaluated by modified MacNab criteria at 6 months after operation. Among 20 patients, 18 cases were excellent, 1 case was good, and 1 case was fair. All patients were followed up for 9.1±2.1 months (range, 6-14 months). One patient had a dural tear during the operation, but the range was small and there was no defect, and no further treatment was performed. Numbness of the lower limbs occurred 1 day after operation, and the symptoms disappeared after symptomatic treatment. There was no recurrence of lower limb symptoms, lumbar instability, intervertebral space infection or other complications at the last follow-up. Conclusion:Bilateral decompression with UBE is effective in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation with imaging herniation on one side and clinical symptoms on the contralateral side, which can improve the lumbar pain and function of patients.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors for complications following lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) surgery.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 196 patients who underwent LLIF surgery via the psoas major muscle approach in the Department of Spinal Surgery, Tianjin Hospital, Tianjin University, from October 2018 to July 2024. The age, gender, body mass index (BMI), presence of hypertension, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, osteoporosis, history of lumbar surgery, history of abdominal surgery, history of abdominal inflammation, smoking status, operative time, surgical segments (whether the surgery was single-segment or multi-segments), and use of internal fixation or not were compared between patients with and without postoperative complications, the indicators with P<0.10 were included in the binary variable logistic regression analysis, and determine the independent risk factors for complications after LLIF surgery. Complications included anterior thigh symptoms (pain, numbness, weakness), cage subsidence, surgery-related complications (nerve injury, surgical site infection, postoperative buttock pain, urinary and fecal incontinence, etc.), and medical complications (cerebrovascular accident, deep vein thrombosis, urinary tract infection, etc.). Results:All 196 patients were followed up for 27.02 (12.6, 40.69) months. Postoperative complications occurred in 71 cases (96 times), and no complications occurred in 125 cases. In the complication group, there were 15 males and 56 females with a mean age of 61.82±7.57 years; in the non-complication group, there were 43 males and 82 females with a mean age of 62.00± 8.39 years. In the complication group, there were 43 cases of anterior thigh symptoms, 38 cases of cage subsidence, 11 cases of surgical operation-related complications, and 4 cases of medical complications. There were statistically significant differences in gender (χ 2=3.829, P=0.051), operation time ( t=2.391, P=0.018), and surgical segment (χ 2=4.245, P=0.039) between the complication group and the non-complication group. No statistically significant differences were found in age, gender, BMI, presence of hypertension, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, osteoporosis, history of lumbar surgery, history of abdominal surgery, history of abdominal inflammation, smoking status, or use of internal fixation ( P>0.10). Binary variable logistic regression analysis indicated that prolonged operative time [ OR=1.007, 95% CI(1.001, 1.013), P=0.019] and multilevel surgery [ OR=2.099, 95% CI(1.095, 4.025), P=0.026] were independent risk factors for complications following LLIF. Conclusion:Prolonged operative time and multi-segments surgery are independent risk factors for complications following LLIF.

Objective:This study aimed to systematically evaluate the efficacy of glucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1) receptor agonists and multi-target analogs on weight reduction and cardiometabolic outcomes in non-diabetic individuals with obesity, and to compare the efficacy and safety across different GLP-1 receptor agonists.Methods:Randomized controlled trials(RCTs) published between January 2000 and March 2025 were identified through a systematic search of CNKI, Wanfang, Web of Science, PubMed, and Cochrane databases. Two reviewers independently screened the studies, extracted data, and assessed methodological quality. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4.1 software. Results:A total of 16 RCTs involving 11 032 non-diabetic individuals with obesity were included. Meta-analysis showed that GLP-1 receptor agonists significantly reduced body weight(ΔWeight=-8.71 kg, 95% CI -10.68 to -6.74, P<0.001) and BMI(ΔBMI=-3.01 kg/m 2, 95% CI -3.77 to -2.25, P<0.001), as well as improved systolic blood pressure(ΔSBP=-4.13 mmHg, 1 mmHg=0.133 kPa, 95% CI -4.87 to -3.39, I2=60%) and diastolic blood pressure(ΔDBP=-1.39 mmHg, 95% CI -2.32 to -0.46, I2=95%). Tirzepatide showed the most pronounced effects on both weight and blood pressure reduction. In addition, GLP-1 receptor agonists significantly lowered LDL-C, TC, and TG, while moderately increasing HDL-C levels. In terms of safety, GLP-1 receptor agonists were associated with an increased risk of gastrointestinal adverse events, but did not significantly increase the risk of hypoglycemia. Conclusion:GLP-1 receptor agonists are effective in reducing weight, BMI, and blood pressure, and in improving lipid profiles in non-diabetic individuals with obesity. However, gastrointestinal side effects should be closely monitored. Given the variability in efficacy and safety among various GLP-1 receptor agonists, personalized treatment approaches are recommended.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy，safety and feasibility of regional lymph node dissection in laparoscopic radical surgery for bladder cancer under the guidance of indocyanine green fluorescence imaging. Methods: A total of 30 patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer (T2/T3NxM0) who volunteered to enter the clinical trial were randomly divided into the indocyanine green imaging guided laparoscopic regional lymph node dissection group (n=15) and the standard pelvic lymph node dissection group (n=15).The number of positive lymph nodes，operation time，intraoperative bleeding volume，incidence of lymph leakage，and tumor recurrence and metastasis rate 2-year after surgery were collected. Results: The number of positive lymph nodes was (4.20±1.66) and (4.60±1.72) respectively in the indocyanine green and standard groups，with no statistically significant difference (P>0.05).There were no statistically significant difference in the tumor recurrence and metastasis rates 2-year after surgery between the two groups (P>0.05).However，the indocyanine green group had shorter operation time，less intraoperative bleeding volume，and lower incidence of lymphatic leakage than the standard group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Indocyanine green fluorescence imaging guided laparoscopic lymph node dissection has comparable clinical efficacy to standard lymph node dissection，but with fewer complications.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is an autoimmune disorder involving complex immune regulation, where balancing localized and systemic immunosuppression is a key challenge. This study aimed to enhance the therapeutic efficacy by engineering the probiotic Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 (EcN). We removed endogenous plasmids pMUT1 and pMUT2 from wild-type EcN and expressed the mPD-L1 (19‒238 aa)-mFc fusion protein on the bacterial surface using a cytolysin A (ClyA) fragment. This modification stabilized mPD-L1 (19‒238 aa) protein expression and promoted its recruitment to outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). The engineered strain, EcNΔ_pMUT1/2-ClyA-mPD-L1-mFc (EcN-ePD-L1-mFc), features conditional ePD-L1-mFc expression under the araBAD promoter, enhancing gut-targeted release and reducing systemic side effects. This strain improved treatment targeting and efficiency by enabling direct ePD-L1-mFc interaction with immune cells at inflammation sites. OMVs from this strain induced Treg proliferation, inhibited effector T cell proliferation in vitro, and significantly improved intestinal inflammation and colonic epithelial barrier repair in vivo. Additionally, the bacterium restored intestinal microbiota balance, increasing Lactobacillaceae and reducing Bacteroides. This study highlights the engineered bacterium's potential for targeted intestinal immune modulation and offers a novel local IBD treatment approach with promising clinical prospects.
