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.

Objective To establish an acute rejection model of cervical heart transplantation in mice and evaluate the survival and dynamic rejection process post-transplantation. Methods Mice were randomly divided into sham operation group (n=10), syngeneic transplantation group (n=21), and allogeneic transplantation group (n=65). Sham operation, syngeneic cervical heart transplantation, and allogeneic cervical heart transplantation were performed respectively. The survival of recipient mice and grafts, histopathological changes of graft tissues, subpopulations of splenic lymphocytes, and expression of inflammatory factors in serum and grafts were observed. Results The survival rate and graft survival rate of the sham operation group and syngeneic transplantation group were 100% at 7 days after surgery. In the allogeneic transplantation group, 5 cases failed and died on the first day after surgery. The survival rate at 7 days after surgery was 86%, and all surviving mice had grafts that stopped beating at 7 days after surgery. The allogeneic transplantation group showed significant rejection at 7 days after surgery, accompanied by tissue damage and CD8⁺ T cell infiltration. The proportion of CD8⁺ T cells in the spleen continued to rise post-operation, while the proportion of CD4⁺ T cells showed a downward trend. The expression of interferon-γ in serum and grafts peaked at 5 days after surgery, while the expression of tumor necrosis factor-α showed no statistical significance. Conclusions Acute rejection following heart transplantation in mice intensifies between 5 to 7 days after surgery, which may be a critical time window for immunological intervention.

Internal jugular venous flow disorder can affect intracranial hemodynamics extensively，and studies have shown that internal jugular venous flow disorder has an impact on various nervous system diseases. This article reviews the association of internal jugular venous flow disorder with related diseases and non-specific symptoms，such as transient global amnesia，transient monocular blindness，white matter lesions，cognitive impairment，Parkinson disease，idiopathic intracranial hypertension，and multiple sclerosis，in order to expand the clinical thinking of the nervous system diseases associated with internal jugular venous flow disorder.

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of vedolizumab(VDZ)and infliximab(IFX)for moderate to severe ulcerative colitis(UC)patients through a multicenter retrospective cohort study.Methods All patients with moderate to severe UC who were naive to biologic agents and treated with IFX or VDZ for at least 14 weeks at 3 hospitals in Southwest China between January 2021 and January 2023 were retrospectively enrolled.The efficacy evaluation indicators,including steroid-free clinical remission rates,clinical remission rates and endoscopic remission rates at weeks 14 and 52 were compared between the 2 groups.The occurrence of adverse events during treatment were recorded.Taking whether mucosal healing could be achieved after 14 and 52 weeks of treatment as the dependent variable,firstly,univariate analysis was performed to analyze the risk factors affecting mucosal healing at weeks 14 and 52,and then multivariate logistic regression analysis was applied to identify the independent risk factors of mucosal healing at the 2 time points.Results A total of 151 patients with moderate to severe UC were included,after propensity score matching(PSM),each group included 57 patients.There were no significant differences in the steroid-free clinical remission rate and clinical remission rate between the 2 groups at weeks 14 and 52(P＞0.05).The endoscopic remission rate at week 14 was significantly higher in the VDZ group than the IFX group[40.4％(23/57)vs 22.8％(13/57),P=0.044],but no such difference was observed at week 52[64.5％(20/31)vs 59.5％(22/37),P=0.669].Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that left-sided disease(E2)[vs pancolitis(E3)](OR=0.46,95％CI:0.21～0.98,P=0.045)was independent risk factor for mucosal healing at week 14 and a disease duration ≥36 months(OR=0.25,95％CI:0.09～0.66,P=0.005)was independent risk factor for mucosal healing at week 52.No statistical difference was observed in the incidence of adverse events between the 2 groups(1.8％vs 7.0％,P=0.360).Conclusion VDZ and IFX have similar efficacy and safety,and both can be used as first-line options for patients with moderate to severe UC.

Myocardial fibrosis is a common pathological manifestation of various heart diseases,with hidden onset and the possibility of evolving into irreversible heart failure.Currently,there is still insufficient diagnosis and treatment of myocardial fibrosis.Traditional Chinese medicine can regulate myocardial fibrosis at multiple levels,targets,and pathways,and has significant advantages in treating myocardial fibrosis.Its underlying mechanisms are worth further exploration.The theory of"yang generating qi,yin constituting the body"in Huangdi Neijing embodies the meaning of yin and yang,containing a profound outlook on life and disease.Pathological changes in the initial,progressive,and final stages of myocardial fibrosis conform to the yin-yang theory of"yang generating qi,yin constituting the body".Insufficient yang generating qi and excessive yin constituting the body constitutes the core pathogenesis of myocardial fibrosis.This article proposes a treatment approach for myocardial fibrosis by tonifying yang and abating yin.The treatment of warming yang,unblocking yang,removing blood stasis,resolving phlegm,detoxifying,and promoting diuresis is applied to broaden the clinical treatment approach for myocardial fibrosis.
