Objective To systematically review the studies on predictive models for delayed graft function (DGF) after kidney transplantation. Methods Databases including China Biology Medicine Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Database, VIP Database, PubMed, Web of Science and CINAHL were searched to collect studies on predictive models for DGF after kidney transplantation published from the establishment of each database to June 29, 2025. Two researchers screened the literatures according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, evaluated the quality of the literatures using the prediction model risk of bias assessment tool (PROBAST), and conducted a meta-analysis of the common predictors of the models using R software. Results A total of 12 literatures were included, involving 14 predictive models with sample sizes ranging from 103 to 24 653 cases. Donor serum creatinine level, cold ischemia time, donor age and donor body mass index were the top four common predictors. All the predictive models were at high risk of bias and low in applicability. The results of meta-analysis showed that abnormal donor body mass index, advanced donor age, prolonged cold ischemia time and elevated donor serum creatinine level were all associated with an increased risk of DGF after transplantation (all P<0.01), but there was high heterogeneity among the studies. Fixed-effect model and random-effect model were used to re-pool the effect sizes separately. The results indicated that the fixed-effect model and random-effect model had good consistency in terms of donor body mass index, donor age and cold ischemia time, while there was a significant difference in the effect sizes of the two models for donor serum creatinine level. Conclusions The predictive models for DGF risk after kidney transplantation have good predictive performance, but the overall risk of bias is high. In the future, large-sample, multicenter and high-quality prospective clinical studies should be carried out to optimize the predictive models, so as to improve their predictive ability and clinical application value.

Objective In this study, the resistance of Blattella germanica to D-cyphenothrin in Guangdong Province was analyzed. Further, the contact activity of eight types of plant essential oils against B. germanica and their synergistic effects with D-cyphenothrin were tested and screened, providing a basis for slowing down insecticide resistance in pests and developing plant synergists. Methods The drip test method was used to measure the resistance levels of B. germanica to D-cyphenothrin in four cities of Guangdong Province:Zhongshan City, Foshan City, Zhuhai City, and Jiangmen City. In addition, the contact killing activities of eight types of plant essential oils against B. germanica, namely, garlic, cinnamon, clove, camphor, eucalyptus leaves, tea tree, Angelica dahurica and peppermint, and their synergistic activities with D-cyphenothrin were evaluated. Results Except for B. germanica in the Xiaolan area of Zhongshan, which was moderately resistant, B. germanica in the other four towns in Guangdong were all highly resistant. Among the eight essential oils tested, garlic essential oil had the strongest toxic activity against B. germanica, with LD50 values of 45.01 μg/individual. A concentration of 2% essential oil plus D-cyphenothrin (LD20)was used to screen for synergistic activity. After 24 h of treatment, Angelica dahurica, garlic, peppermint, camphor, and tea tree essential oils showed synergistic activity. Of these, A. dahurica essential oil had the strongest synergistic activity, with a synergistic coefficient of 125%. Conclusions The essential oil of garlic had the strongest toxic activity against B. germanica, and the essential oils of A. dahurica and garlic together had the strongest synergistic activity with D-cyphenothrin, thereby providing a reference for developing natural plant synergists.

This paper aims to study the effect of p-cymene on mice with deficiency-cold syndrome induced by hydrocortisone and deficiency-heat syndrome induced by dexamethasone and explore the medicinal properties and mechanism of p-cymene with mild and warm nature based on the dominant characteristics of the two-way applicable conditions of mild drugs. A total of 80 KM mice were randomly divided into blank group, deficiency-cold syndrome model group, deficiency-cold syndrome + ginseng group, and deficiency-cold syndrome + low-dose and high-dose p-cymene groups, as well as blank group, deficiency-heat syndrome model group, deficiency-heat syndrome + American ginseng group, and deficiency-heat syndrome + low-dose and high-dose p-cymene groups. Hydrocortisone and dexamethasone solution were intragastrically administered for 14 consecutive days to prepare deficiency-cold syndrome and deficiency-heat syndrome models. Except for the blank group and the model group intragastrically administered with normal saline, the other groups were intragastrically administrated with drugs for 14 days. The levels of cyclic adenosine monophosphate(cAMP), cyclic guanosine monophosphate(cGMP), triiodothyronine(T3), thyroxine(T4), total cholesterol(TC), triglyceride(TG), immunoglobin G(IgG), and immunoglobin M(IgM) in serum, as well as the activity of Na~+-K~+-ATPase in liver tissue were detected. The expression of transient receptor potential melastatin 8(TRPM8), transient receptor potential vanilloid 1(TRPV1), and uncoupling protein 1(UCP1) in brown adipose tissue of deficiency-cold syndrome model after intervention with p-cymene was studied. The results showed that p-cymene could effectively improve the levels of cAMP, cAMP/cGMP, TC, IgM, and IgG in serum and the activity of Na~+-K~+-ATPase in liver tissue of mice with deficiency-cold syndrome and reduce the content of cGMP. The effects on T3, T4, and TG were not statistically significant. At the same time, p-cymene could reduce the levels of cAMP, cAMP/cGMP, and T4 in serum and the activity of Na~+-K~+-ATPase in liver tissue of mice with deficiency-cold syndrome and increase the levels of cGMP, IgM, and IgG, and it had no effect on T3, TC, and TG. In addition, p-cymene could up-regulate the expression of TRPV1 and UCP1 in brown fat of mice with deficiency-cold syndrome and down-regulate the expression of TRPM8. In summary, p-cymene could significantly regulate the syndrome indexes of mice with deficiency-cold syndrome, and some indexes of mice with deficiency-heat syndrome could be improved, but the effects on lipid metabolism and energy metabolism indexes were not obvious, indicating that the regulation effect of p-cymene on deficiency-cold syndrome model was more prominent and that the medicinal properties of p-cymene were mild and warm. The regulation of TRPV1/TRPM8/UCP1 channel expression may be the molecular biological mechanism of p-cymene with mild and warm nature affecting the energy metabolism of the body.

Objective To explore the relationship between blood glucose variability, disease severity and prognosis of the patients with acute pancreatitis. Methods Total of 242 patients with acute pancreatitis admitted to the department of emergency from January 2019 to December 2019 were enrolled. The organ failure was evaluated according to Marshall's score, the severity of the disease was evaluated according to Atlanta's score, and the blood glucose indexes of three groups of patients with mild acute pancreatitis, moderate severe acute pancreatitis and severe acute pancreatitis were compared within seven days after admission. The relationship between blood glucose index and disease severity in different patients with acute pancreatitis was analyzed. Taking whether a puncture was performed at admission, whether the patient was admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), and whether the patient died as endpoint events as classification factors, the relationship between blood glucose indicators and disease prognosis of patients with acute pancreatitis was analyzed using the One-Way ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis test, Mann-Whitney U test, receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve), etc. Results Of the 242 patients, 70 cases (28.9%) were mild acute pancreatitis, 71 cases (29.3%) with moderate severe acute pancreatitis, 101 cases (41.7%) with severe acute pancreatitis. There was no statistically significant difference in the coefficient of variation of blood glucose among the three groups within 7 days of admission. The mean, standard deviation, maximum, minimum value and difference between maximum and minimum value of venous blood glucose in severe acute pancreatitis group were higher than those in moderate severe acute pancreatitis group, while those in moderate severe acute pancreatitis group were higher than those in mild acute pancreatitis group. The mean value of blood glucose of invasive operation group (IOP) (n=55) was higher than that of non-invasive operation (NOP) group(n=187). Conclusions The blood glucose level and fluctuation range of patients with acute pancreatitis within seven days after admission, are of great significance for the judgment of the severity and prognosis of the disease.

Objective:To explore the relationship between acute leukemia and blood lipid level.Methods:The Chinese and English literature on the relationship between acute leukemia and blood lipid level published in PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane library, CNKI, Wanfang, and VIP databases from the establishment of the database to December 2023 was searched, the literature that met the evaluation criteria was screened, and the quality of the literature was evaluated by using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale. Basic clinical characteristics and blood lipid-related data were obtained from the acute leukemia patients (acute leukemia group) and the healthy individuals who underwent physical examination or patients with non-hematological disorders that did not lead to abnormal blood lipid metabolism and who did not take medications that affected blood lipid during the same period (control group). Meta-analysis of the differences in peripheral blood levels of total cholesterol (TC), triacylglycerol (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c), and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c) between the two groups was carried out by using Stata 14.0 software to make forest plots and to calculate the combined weighted mean difference (WMD) or standardised mean difference (SMD) and 95% CI. Results:Six articles were finally included, published between 2005 and 2023, all of which were of moderate quality. Finally, 558 patients with acute leukemia and 323 controls were included in the analysis. By Meta-analysis, TG level in the acute leukemia group was higher than that in the control group (WMD = 0.30, 95% CI: 0.07-0.54, P = 0.012), HDL-c (SMD = -1.54, 95% CI: -2.11--0.97, P < 0.001) and LDL-c (WMD = -0.57, 95% CI: -0.72 - -0.41, P < 0.001) levels were lower than those in the control group, and the differences were all statistically significant; the difference in TC between the acute leukemia group and the control group was not statistically significant (WMD = -0.34, 95% CI: -0.82-0.13, P = 0.157). Conclusions:Compared with normal subjects, patients with acute leukemia have high TG level and low LDL-c and HDL-c levels.

The rapid development of the pharmaceutical research and development (R&D) has brought new challenges to occupational health management, including the high uncertainty in the R&D process, emerging hazards, and compliance complexities associated with novel business models. Traditional management approaches exhibit limitations in effectively addressing the occupational health risks associated with these challenges. Based on the perspective of agile governance, this paper proposed an optimized pathway characterized by dynamic response, adaptive flexibility, and multi-stakeholder collaboration. It further offered countermeasures and recommendations from three aspects: concept renewal, mechanism innovation, and tool empowerment, aiming to provide reference for the effective management and control of occupational health risks in the innovation and development of the pharmaceutical R&D industry.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

OBJECTIVE To explore the colonization rates of carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacteria(CRGNB)in intestinal tracts of intensive care unit(ICU)patients and analyze the influencing factors.METHODS The ICU patients were recruited from a three-A general hospital of Shanghai from Jan.2024 to Dec.2024,an ac-tive screening was carried out for intestinal tract CRGNB,and the detection rates of 5 types of carbapenems resist-ance genes(CRGs)in the CRGNB strains were observed.The baseline data and hospitalization data before the ac-tive screening were collected from the patients,logistic regression analysis was performed for the influencing fac-tors for the colonization of CRGNB.The effects of targeted infection control measures on length of ICU stay,hos-pitalization cost and prognosis were observed and compared before and after the active screening was carried out.RESULTS A total of 748 patients were included in the active screening,and the colonization rate of CRGNB in intestinal tracts was 11.50％(86/748).Among the CRGs,the detection rate of blaNDM was the highest(6.82％),followed by blaIMP(4.55％)and blaKPC(2.54％).The result of logistic regression analysis showed that,with an increase of 1 each day of hospital stay before the admission to ICUs,the risk was increased by 1.055 times(OR=1.055,95％CI:1.030 to 1.081,P＜0.001),the risk was 0.442 times the use of as aminoglycosides as the use of β-lactams(OR=0.442,95％CI:0.244 to 0.801,P=0.007).The targeted infection control measures that were taken after the active screening shortened the length of hospital stay(Z=-3.514,P＜0.001),reduce the hospitalization cost(Z=3.030,P=0.002)and improve the prognosis of the patients(x2=7.470,P=0.006).CONCLUSIONS The colonization rates of CRGNB in intestinal tracts are high among the ICU patients.It is necessary to reduce the length of hospital stay prior to ICU and strengthen the surveillance of drug-resistant strains and management of antibiotics.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics and prognostic factors of pediatric Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of children with newly diagnosed HL from January 2011 to December 2023 at four hospitals: Fujian Medical University Union Hospital, Fujian Medical University Zhangzhou Hospital, First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University, and Fujian Children's Hospital. Patients were categorized into low-risk (R1), intermediate-risk (R2), and high-risk (R3) groups based on HL staging and pre-treatment risk factors. The patients received ABVD regimen or Chinese Pediatric HL-2013 regimen chemotherapy. Early treatment response and long-term efficacy were assessed, and prognostic factors were analyzed using the Cox proportional hazards regression model. RESULTS: The overall complete response (CR) rates after 2 and 4 cycles of chemotherapy were 42% and 68%, respectively. Compared with the ABVD regimen group, patients treated with the HL-2013 regimen in the R1 group showed significantly higher CR rates after both 2 and 4 cycles (P<0.05). However, no statistically significant differences in CR rates were observed between the two regimens in the R2 and R3 groups (P>0.05). The 5-year event-free survival (EFS) rate, overall survival rate, and freedom from treatment failure rate were 83%±4%, 97%±2%, and 88%±4%, respectively. Cox analysis indicated that the presence of a large tumor mass at diagnosis and failure to achieve CR after 4 cycles of chemotherapy were independent risk factors for lower EFS rates (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Pediatric HL generally has a favorable prognosis. The presence of a large tumor mass at diagnosis and failure to achieve CR after 4 cycles of chemotherapy indicate poor prognosis.
