Steatotic liver disease is characterized by substantial heterogeneity in etiology, metabolic background, and pathological progression, and no single model can fully recapitulate the spectrum of human disease. There are currently various preclinical models, yet further standardization is needed in terms of nomenclature, model selection, experimental conditions, and assessment indices. Issued by the European Association for the Study of the Liver, this 2026 position paper systematically reviews the in vivo, in vitro, and ex vivo models of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease, metabolic dysfunction and alcohol-associated liver disease, and alcohol-associated liver disease. It proposes the selection of models based on disease subtype, research objective, and target endpoint and provides recommendations for pharmacological positive controls, experimental design, histopathological assessment, and minimum reporting requirements. This article gives an excerpt of the key contents of the position paper, so as to facilitate standardized selection and evaluation of preclinical models for steatotic liver disease and improve their concordance with human disease phenotypes.

Objective:To investigate the clinical and molecular features of patients with CD7 +relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia(r/rAML)and the prognosis of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Methods:172 r/rAML patients who underwent allo-HSCT in department of hematology, Aerospace Center Hospital between January 1st 2017 and December 31st 2020 were retrospectively analyzed The patients were were divided into CD7 + group( n=75) and CD7 - group( n=97) according to the expression CD7 in the initial immunophenotype. Mann-Whitney U and Chi-square test were used to compare the clinical data, molecular and cytogenetic characteristics of the two groups of patients. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the median progression-free survival (PFS) and median overall survival (OS) of the two groups of patients, and Cox regression screenthe prognostic factors of the patients. Results:The median follow-up time was 19 months. The recurrence rates were 23.71% and 50.67%, respectively in CD7 - and CD7 + group (χ 2=13.428 P<0.001). In relapsed patients, 86.96 percentage of CD7 - group did not express CD7 while 86.84 percentage of CD7 + group expressed CD7. The median PFS was 25 and 5 months in CD7 - and CD7 + group (χ 2=8.695, P=0.003), and the medianOS was 34 and 15 months in CD7 - and CD7 + group (χ 2=2.579, P=0.108). Univariate analysis showed that the CD7 +group, had the lower rates of morphological remission (χ 2=10.014, P=0.002), molecular remission (χ 2=22.809, P<0.001), and more male patients (χ 2=5.281, P=0.022). The incidence of CEBPA double-site mutation was higher (23.4% vs 8.2%, χ 2=8.180, P=0.004) and the rearrangement of RUNX1::RUNX1T1 was lower(4.0% vs18.6%, χ 2=8.362, P=0.004)in CD7 +group than in CD7 -group. Multivariate analysis showed that pre-transplant tumor load was the only prognostic factor for PFS (HR, 1.600; 95% CI, 1.203 to 2.127; P=0.001) and OS (HR, 1.737; 95% CI, 1.273 to 2.369; P<0.001) in r/r AML patients. Conclusion:CD7 expression is a risk factor for poor prognosis in r/r AML patients, and CD7 expression is stable after relapse. Positive CD7 can be used as a target for immune targeted therapy.

Objective:To establish a method for iohexolquantification based on high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to measure the concentration of blood iohexolafterlow dose and contrast dose injection.Methods:Weperformed the method establishment and evaluation in this study. A HPLC-UV system (high performance liquid chromatography plus ultraviolet detector) was used to establish the method. The linearity, imprecision, recovery rate, limit of detection, lower limit of measuring interval and carryover of the method were evaluated. The stability of iohexol under different storage conditions, the differences of iohexolbetween serum and plasma concentrations, and the drug′s interference with the method were evaluated preliminarily. The single sample t test was used for the stability test of iohexolin samples, and the Wilcoxon symbol rank sum test was used for the comparison of iohexol concentrations between serum and plasma.Results:The linearity of iohexol ranging from 5 to 250 μg/ml ( R2=0.999 9) and from 250 to 4 000 μg/ml ( R2=0.999 8); when the concentration of iohexol was 20-3 000 μg/ml, the intra-and inter-assay coefficient of variation were 1.63% to 3.31% and 2.10% to 4.09%, respectively. The recovery rate was 94.17% to 106.13%; the limit of detection was 1 μg/ml and the lower limit of measuring interval was 5 μg/ml; it shows no carryover at the concentration of iohexol 4 000 μg/ml; after 48 hours at room temperature storage, the relative deviation of the concentration was -5.55% to +5.58%, after repeated freeze-thaw cycles 6 times at -80 ℃, the relative deviation of the concentration was -1.28% to+6.68%; there was no statistic difference between the measurement results between serum and plasma; valsartan and other drugs did not interfere with this methodsignificantly. Conclusion:Awide-range HPLC method for iohexolquantification has been established, which can stably and accurately detect the blood concentration of iohexol at low and contrast doses.

ObjectiveTo observe clinical results and histopathological changes of scleral defect repaired with acellular xenogenic dermal matrix (Xeno-ADM) in rabbits.MethodsModel of rabbit sclera defect was established, and repaired with Xeno-ADM. The rabbits were clinically examined for inflammation and eyeball healing. The animals were sacrificed at 2nd and 4th week after operation, and implants were obtained and examined histopathologyically and ultrastructully with light microscopies respectively to evaluating changes of inflammation and vascularization.ResultsThere were no obvious inflammation and eyeball deformation observed. 2 weeks after implantation, the partial inflammatory cell invasion was seen with the light microscopy, and there was an obvious borderline between the Xeno-ADM and the sclera. 4 weeks after implantation, the inflammatory cells were reduced noticeably, the Xeno-ADM and the sclera completely merged with each other.ConclusionThe acellular xenogenic dermal matrix may be an ideal materix with fast neovascularization and low immunity for replace of sclera implants.
