Objective: To investigate the impact of RhE antigen-matched transfusion during liver transplantation on early postoperative recovery and complications. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, ninety-five patients undergoing liver transplantation at Kunming First People's Hospital between January 2022 and July 2025 were enrolled. Patients were divided into two groups: Group 1 (RhE-mismatched transfusion, n=57) and Group 2 (RhE-matched transfusion, n=38). The baseline data, complete blood counts, hepatic and renal function, coagulation parameters, and complication rates between the two groups were compared at postoperative days 1, 3, 5, 7, and 10. Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Results: The baseline characteristics were well-balanced and comparable between the two groups (all P>0.05). The early postoperative mortality rate in the mismatched group (31.58%, 18/57) was significantly higher than that in the matched group (10.53%, 4/38) (P=0.017). The incidence of postoperative hepatic encephalopathy was significantly higher in the mismatched group (50.88%, 29/57) than in the matched group (10.53%, 4/38) (P<0.001). The incidence of postoperative haemorrhage in the mismatched group (24.56%, 14/57) was higher than that in the matched group (5.26%, 2/38), with a statistically significant difference (P=0.014). The incidence of perioperative infection in the mismatched group (28.07%, 16/57) was higher than that in the matched group (10.53%, 4/38), with a statistically significant difference (P=0.04). Corresponding odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals indicated a lower risk of these adverse events in the matched group. On postoperative day 1, the change in activated partial thromboplastin time (-1.6, 20.5) in the mismatched group was greater than in the matched group (-0.2, 5.5). The change in international normalised ratio (-0.56, 1.22) in the mismatched group was greater than in the matched group (-0.18, 0.32), while the change in albumin (-4.0, 4.8) was smaller in the mismatched group than in the matched group (-2.5, 8.8). On postoperative day 5, the change in albumin (-0.41±7.83) in the mismatched group was smaller than in the matched group (2.68±4.53). At postoperative day 7, the change in albumin in the mismatched group (-0.61±7.38) was smaller than that in the matched group (2.51±5.85), while the change in D-dimer in the mismatched group (0.73, 7.4) was greater than that in the matched group (-1.6, 4.3). On postoperative day 10, the mismatched group exhibited significantly higher fibrinogen levels (-1.21, 1.78) than the matched group (-0.49, 0.97), and significantly longer prothrombin times (-11.3, -2.7) than the matched group (-6.2, -0.8) (all P<0.05). The matched group exhibited a mean overall survival (OS) of 32.803 months (95% CI:29.171-36.436 months), significantly exceeding the mismatched group's 28.996 months (95% CI:24.202-33.790 months). The log-rank test yielded statistically significant results (χ =4.307, P=0.038). Conclusion: Implementing RhE blood group-matched transfusion during liver transplantation may help reduce early postoperative mortality and the incidence of major complication rates, promote faster recovery of coagulation and liver function, and thereby improve short-term patient outcomes.

ObjectiveTo explore the efficacy and mechanism of Euphorbia humifusa on acute kidney injury （AKI） based on network pharmacology， molecular docking and experimental verification. MethodsThe active components and targets of E. humifusa were retrieved from TCMSP and SwissTargetPrediction database， and the AKI targets were screened by GeneCards and Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man（OMIM） databases. The drug targets and disease targets were intersected to construct a protein-protein interaction network， and the intersection targets were subjected to gene ontology （GO） and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes （KEGG） enrichment analysis. Discover Studio software was used to verify the molecular docking of key components and core targets. Gentamicin （GM） was used to induce AKI rat model. Control group， model group， verapamil （16 mg·kg^-1） group， E. humifusa extract （18， 54， 162 mg·kg^-1·d^-1） group and E. humifusa 70% ethanol extract （423 mg·kg^-1） group were continuously administered for 14 days. Urine volume was detected 24 h after modeling and administration. Serum creatinine （SCr）， Blood urea nitrogen （BUN）， 24-hour urine protein （24 hUTP） and uric acid （UA） content； the contents of malondialdehyde （MDA）， glutathione （GSH）， superoxide dismutase （SOD）， carbon monoxide synthase （NOS） and lactate dehydrogenase （LDH） in kidney were measured. The levels of interleukin （IL）-6 and tumor necrosis factor （TNF）-α in serum were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA） kit. The pathological changes of renal tissue were detected by hematoxylin-eosin （HE） and Masson staining. Western blot was used to detect the expression of PI3K/protein kinase B（Akt）/NF-κB signaling pathway-related proteins. ResultsIn this study， 13 active components such as kaempferol， luteolin， apigenin， gallic acid and quercetin were screened and identified from E. humifusa. Through bioinformatics analysis， these components and AKI have a total of 289 targets， of which 62 are core targets， including Akt1， TNF， tumor protein p53（TP53） and IL-1β. These targets are mainly involved in the regulation of biological processes such as NF-κB signaling pathway， HIF-1 signaling pathway， TNF signaling pathway， PI3K/Akt signaling pathway and mitogen-activated protein kinase（MAPK） signaling pathway. In animal experiments， we successfully constructed a GM-induced AKI model in rats. Compared with the model group， E. humifusa extract could significantly reduce the levels of 24 hUTP， BUN and SCr in rats （P<0.01）， indicating its improvement effect on renal function. In addition， the extract of E. humifusa also significantly reduced LDH activity and MDA content in rat kidney tissue （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and significantly increased SOD， NOS activity and GSH content （P<0.05）， indicating that the extract of E. humifusa has the potential of anti-oxidation and protection of renal function. Further analysis of inflammatory factors showed that the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in serum of rats treated with E. humifusa extract were significantly decreased （P<0.01）， indicating that E. humifusa extract had anti-inflammatory effects. In addition， the extract of E. humifusa can also regulate the protein expression of PI3K/Akt/NF-κB signaling pathway， which further confirmed its mechanism of reducing GM-induced AKI. ConclusionThe extract of E. humifusa has a significant therapeutic effect on acute kidney injury through its multi-component and multi-target mechanism. Its effect is reflected in improving renal function， anti-oxidation， anti-inflammation and regulating immune response. These findings provide a scientific basis for the application of E. humifusa in the treatment of acute kidney injury， and point out the direction for future drug development and clinical research.

Objective: To investigate the damaging effects of red blood cell supernatant (RBC-S) stored for different durations (7 d, 14 d, and 28 d) on vascular endothelial cells, and to explore the underlying mechanisms using bioinformatics analysis, so as to provide references for optimizing red blood cell transfusion strategies. Methods: Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were co-cultured with RBC-S stored for 7, 14 and 28 days, designated as the 7 d group, 14 d group and 28 d group respectively, which were collectively defined as the experimental groups. Cell damage was evaluated by cell proliferation assay (Cell Counting Kit8, CCK8), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release assay, 4′, 6diamidino2phenylindole (DAPI) staining, and flow cytometry for apoptosis and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. The damage degree of RBC-S on vascular endothelial cells was assessed by statistical analysis of damage data among different groups. Since the damage effect reached a plateau at all time points, the 28 d storage group was selected as the representative for further mechanistic studies. Transcriptomic analysis was performed to explore the role of frizzled class receptor 1 (FZD1) and Wnt signaling pathway in red blood cell storagerelated endothelial dysfunction. Results: Compared with the control group, the storage groups treated with 7 d, 14 d, and 28 d RBC-S showed significantly decreased cell proliferation rates [control group 100%, 7 d group (69.51±2.30)%, 14 d group (74.54±2.89)%, 28 d group (73.59±2.36)%, P<0.05], significantly reduced numbers of DAPI-stained cell nuclei [control group (213±12.5) per field, 7 d group (140.33±17.04) per field, 14 d group (152.00±23.72) per field, 28 d group (144.33±19.09) per field, P<0.05] and significantly increased LDH release [control group (1), 7 d group (8.33±1.41), 14 d group (9.23±0.83), 28 d group (9.16±0.60), P<0.05]. There was no significant difference in the degree of damage caused by RBC-S among different storage groups (P>0.05). With the prolongation of storage time, free hemoglobin (FHb) gradually increased [control group (not detected), 7 d (16.57±6.38) mg/L, 14 d (76.80±22.83) mg/L, 28 d (286.97±29.02) mg/L, P<0.05]. The apoptotic rate (20.53±2.94)% and ROS relative intensity (5.13±0.91) in the 28 d storage group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). Transcriptomic analysis showed that FZD1 played a key role in vascular endothelial dysfunction induced by red blood cell storage and was closely related to the Wnt signaling regulatory network. Conclusion: RBC-S stored for 7 d, 14 d, or 28 d can all significantly damage vascular endothelial cells, and the damaging effect reaches a plateau at 7 d of storage. Mechanistic investigation of the 28 d group indicated that the downregulation of the FZD1/Wnt signaling pathway may play a critical role in vascular endothelial dysfunction induced by red blood cell storage, providing a theoretical basis for further optimizing red blood cell storage and transfusion strategies.

Objective: To examine the relationship between self-management behaviors and time perspective among patients with comorbid diabetes, so as to provide the evidence for improving self-management behaviors among patients with comorbid diabetes. Methods: The patients with comorbid diabetes who were registered in the chronic disease health management system of Minhang District, Shanghai Municipality in 2021, followed up regularly, and lived in Meilong Town were recruited. Demographic information and family history of diabetes were collected through questionnaire surveys. Time perspective and self-management behaviors were assessed using the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory and Diabetes Self-Management Behavior Scale, respectively. The relationship between self-management behaviors and time perspective was analyzed using a multivariable ordinal logistic regression model. Results: A total of 907 patients with comorbid diabetes were enrolled, including 472 males (52.04%) and 435 females (47.96%). There were 652 cases aged 65 years and above, accounting for 71.89%. In terms of the types of time perspective, 280 patients were future-oriented (30.87%), 236 were balanced (26.02%), 162 were sensation-seeking (17.86%), 123 were fatalistic (13.56%), and 106 were negative (11.69%). In terms of the self-management behaviors, 46 patients were good (5.07%), 643 were moderate (70.89%), and 218 were poor (24.04%). Multivariable ordinal logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for age, gender, educational level, marital status, occupation status, monthly income, and family history of diabetes, the patients with comorbid diabetes who had a future-oriented time perspective had better self-management behaviors (OR=1.874, 95%CI: 1.204-2.915). Conclusion The self-management behaviors among patients with comorbid diabetes are moderate to poor, and patients with a future-oriented time perspective can better engage in self-management behaviors.

Objective:To explore the influences of FibroScan detection on the pregnancy outcomes of pregnant rats transfected with hepatitis B virus and the growth of their offspring rats.Methods:Sixty SPF-grade SD rats with a male-to-female ratio of 5∶1 were selected，randomly divided the female rats into the groups of mid-pregnancy with hepatitis B，late-pregnancy with hepatitis B，normal mid-pregnancy，normal late-pregnancy，and control group，and the rats in the mid-pregnancy and late-pregnancy groups were subjected to FibroScan testing on the 10th and 15th days of gestation respectively. The number of offspring rats in each group was randomly reduced to 10 on the 3rd day after delivery，and the offspring rats were divided into the groups of mid-pregnancy with hepatitis B，late-pregnancy with hepatitis B，normal mid-pregnancy，normal late-pregnancy，and control group. The pregnancy outcome levels of pregnant rats were observed by adopting a stratified analysis strategy，including differences in weight changes，number of deliveries，fetal rat outcomes，lactation conditions，litter size，and litter weight. The growth levels of offspring rats，including differences in weight，body length，tail length，and the time of fur growth，tooth eruption，eye opening，and ear standing on the 21st day were observed，and the survival rate of the offspring rats was compared.Results:With regard to the pregnancy outcome levels of the pregnant rats，there were no statistically significant differences in weight changes during pregnancy among the five groups of pregnant rats［ F（4，45）=2.627，Adjusted P=0.222］. There were also no statistically significant differences in the number of deliveries，fetal rat outcomes，and lactation conditions（Adjusted P=1.000）. The number of deliveries［ F（4，21.095）=2.280，Adjusted P=0.222］and litter weight［ F（4，20.128）=2.159，Adjusted P=0.222］showed no statistically significant differences. After correction using the BH method，none of the indicators showed significant differences（ P>0.05）. In terms of the growth levels of the offspring rats，among the five groups of offspring rats，there were no statistically significant differences in body weight on the 21st day［H（4）=11.623，Adjusted P=0.135］，body length on the 21st day［H（4）=10.962，Adjusted P=0.135］，and tail length on the 21st day［H（4）=9.126，Adjusted P=0.058］. Besides，the differences in the time of fur growth，tooth eruption，eye opening，and ear standing［H（4）=0.000，Adjust P=1.000］showed no statistical significance. The survival rate on the 7th day，14th day，and 21st day was 100%，with no significant differences（Adjusted P=1.000）. After correction using the BH method，none of the indicators showed significant differences（ P>0.05）. Conclusion:FibroScan detection had no significant influences on the pregnancy outcomes of pregnant rats with hepatitis B or on the growth of their offspring rats in multiple stages，dimensions，and indicators，indicating that FibroScan detection is safe for pregnant rats. This research provides an animal experimental basis for the safe use of FibroScan in pregnant women with chronic HBV infection.

The 2021 version of the Baveno Ⅶ consensus on portal hypertension and the 2023 guidelines from the European Association for the Study of the Liver define recompensated cirrhosis as the restoration and stabilization of liver function, improvement of liver fibrosis, and absence of decompensated cirrhosis for a long time following effective treatment of the underlying etiology of cirrhosis. Recompensated cirrhosis has become an important research direction in the field with the gradually increasing number of these patients. Temporary recompensation, stable recompensation, and long-term recompensation are the three stages into which patients with cirrhosis are divided, based on varying recompensation stages. Clinical characteristics and prognosis are significantly different among different stages. Patients in the temporary compensation stage have significant fluctuations in their condition and poor stability, with a high risk of recurrent complications. The prognosis of patients in the stable recompensation stage is significantly affected by the cause and the type of initial decompensation event, while the condition of patients in the long-term recompensation stage is more stable, and the long-term prognosis is close to that of compensated cirrhosis. This article aims to summarize and explore the recompensation rates at different stages of liver cirrhosis, the occurrence risk of various complications and liver cancer, and long-term management and treatment following recompensation, providing new directions for future research in this field.

Objective:To investigate and explore the expressional condition and therapeutic role of PD-1 and CD161 in the peripheral blood of patients treated with PEG-IFN-α for chronic hepatitis B (CHB), and their correlation with the degree of decrease in hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg).Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted. CHB patients who visited the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from July 2022 to December 2023 and healthy controls during the same period were included. Peripheral blood samples were collected from the IFN treatment group (31 cases), the non-IFN treatment group (30 cases), and the healthy control group (30 cases). Flow cytometry was used to detect the CD8, + PD-1, + CD161 + T lymphocytes and their subpopulations among the three groups. The proportions of cellular subpopulations were compared to analyze intergroup differences using Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U tests. The patients in the IFN treatment group were divided into two subgroups, high-and low-level, according to the median levels of PD-1 + lymphocytes, CD8 +PD-1 +T cells, and CD161 + lymphocytes. The magnitude of HBsAg decline was compared between the two groups. Results:The proportions of PD-1 + lymphocytes and CD8 +PD-1 +T cells in the IFN treatment group were significantly higher than those in the healthy control group and the non-IFN treatment group ( P<0.001). Moreover, the proportions of PD-1 + lymphocytes [IFN treatment group 48 weeks: 24.3 (23.7, 28.0)%, non-IFN treatment group: 12.7 (10.0, 18.5)%, P<0.01] and CD8 +PD-1 +T cells [IFN treatment group 48 weeks: 29.29 (26.73, 32.98)%, non-IFN treatment group: 17.69 (9.62, 20.68)%, P<0.05] were higher in the IFN treatment group than those in the non-IFN treatment group at 48 weeks. The proportion of CD8 +CD161 +T cells was significantly lower in patients treated with IFN than in the non-IFN treatment group ( P<0.05) at 24 and 48 weeks, with no statistically significant difference with the healthy control group ( P>0.05). In the IFN treatment group, patients with high levels of PD-1 + and CD8 + PD1 lymphocytes had a significantly lower HBsAg decline compared to low-level patients, whereas no significant correlation was found between CD161 levels and HBsAg decline [PD-1 + lymphocytes: 0.15 (0.02, 0.18) log 10 IU/mL vs. 0.32 (0.13, 0.42) log 10 IU/mL, P<0.01; CD8 +PD-1 +T cells: 0.16 (0.03, 0.17) log 10 IU/mL vs. 0.34 (0.13, 0.44) log 10 IU/mL, P<0.05]. Conclusion:The proportions of CD8 +PD-1 +T cells and CD8 +CD161 +T cells were significantly regulated by PEG-IFN-α therapy in the peripheral blood of patients with CHB, revealing the important role of T cell immune activation status during antiviral treatment. The gradual decline of HBsAg is closely related to the high expression of PD-1, suggesting that PD-1 may be negatively regulated during the process of T cell exhaustion and immunological evasion.

Objective:To investigate the distribution characteristics of CTLA-4 on the surface of CD4+T cells in patients with breast cancer at different stages,and to evaluate its predictive value for the efficacy of radical mastectomy.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 200 breast cancer patients admitted between January 2020 and December 2022.Patients were divided into four groups based on clinical staging:stage Ⅰ(64 cases),stage Ⅱ(57 cases),stage Ⅲ(43 cases),and stage Ⅳ(36 cases).The clinical pathological characteristics of the four groups were compared,and the expression level of CTLA-4 on the surface of CD4+T cells in peripheral venous blood(CTLA-4+CD4+)was detected.Patients were divided into a poor prognosis group(52 cases)and a good prognosis group(148 cases)based on their prognosis,and the clinical pathological characteristics of the two groups were compared.A stratified regression model was used to analyze the relationship between CTLA-4+CD4+expression levels and different clinical characteristics.Logistic regression analysis was employed to evaluate the independent correlation between CTLA-4+CD4+expression levels and the risk of poor prognosis.An unconditional logistic regression model was used to analyze the multiplicative interaction effect of CTLA-4+CD4+expression levels and clinical staging on prognosis prediction.Restricted cubic spline analysis was used to investigate the relationship between CTLA-4+CD4+expression levels and poor patient prognosis.Results:Significant differences were observed in tumor diameter,ECOG score,lesion multiplicity,lymph node metastasis,tumor differentiation degree,ER,PR,HER2,Ki-67,CA125,CA153,and CEA among patients with different clinical stages(P<0.05).Significant differences were also observed in CD3+,CD4+,CD8+,and CTLA-4+CD4+(P<0.05).As the clinical stage increased,the proportions of CD3+,CD4+,and CD8+decreased,while the proportion of CTLA-4 on the surface of CD4+T cells increased(P<0.05).Significant differences were observed in clinical stage,tumor diameter,lymph node metastasis,tumor differentiation degree,ECOG score,ER,PR,HER2,and CTLA-4+CD4+among patients with different prognosis groups(P<0.05).Hierarchical regression analysis indicated that clinical stage,tumor diameter,lymph node metastasis,tumor differentiation degree,ECOG score,and HER2 had a significant positive impact on CTLA-4+CD4+(P<0.05),while ER and PR had a significant negative impact on CTLA-4+CD4+(P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that CTLA-4+CD4+was positively correlated with poor prognosis(P<0.05).CTLA-4+CD4+and clinical stage had multiplicative and additive interactions on prognosis.Regardless of the clinical stage,CTLA-4+CD4+on the surface of CD4+T cells was significantly positively correlated with poor prognosis.Conclusion:The expression level of CTLA-4+CD4+in patients with advanced breast cancer is significantly elevated,playing a crucial role in the clinical pathological characteristics of breast cancer.An elevated level may indicate a poor prognosis.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.
