Ischemia-reperfusion injury of solid organs is a common complication during transplantation, but its mechanism remains unclear and there are no effective prevention and treatment methods. Rejection is a common immune response of the graft, which is classified into hyperacute rejection, acute rejection and chronic rejection. Rejection and ischemia-reperfusion injury of solid organs may share some common mechanisms, and further research on their correlation may provide strategies for the prevention and treatment of ischemia-reperfusion injury of solid organs. This article mainly reviews the association between rejection and ischemia-reperfusion injury of solid organs.

Dry eye disease(DED)is a common ocular surface disorder worldwide, primarily characterized by a loss of homeostasis of the tear film, and frequently associated with meibomian gland dysfunction(MGD), decreased tear film stability, ocular discomfort, and visual impairment. In recent years, factors such as the widespread use of digital devices,the aging population, and environmental changes have contributed to a significant increase in its global prevalence, making it a major public health concern. Red light therapy(RLT), also known as low-level laser therapy(LLLT)or photobiomodulation(PBM), is a non-invasive treatment that utilizes low-energy red or near-infrared light to irradiate tissues. It exerts photobiomodulatory effects to promote cellular repair and functional recovery. This therapy has demonstrated considerable potential in treating various ocular conditions. Its broader clinical application could improve therapeutic outcomes, alleviate patient discomfort and financial burden, and reduce the consumption of healthcare resources, thereby yielding significant socio-economic benefits. This paper systematically reviews the multifaceted mechanisms and application prospects of RLT in managing DED, including its anti-inflammatory effects, improvement of meibomian gland function, promotion of conjunctival goblet cell repair, and alleviation of visual fatigue, aiming to provide a theoretical foundation and practical reference for its clinical adoption.

Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related morbidity and mortality worldwide. Coupled with the substantial workload, the clinical management of lung cancer is challenged by the critical need to efficiently and accurately process increasingly complex medical information. In recent years, large language models (LLMs) technology has undergone explosive development, demonstrating unique advantages in handling complex medical data by leveraging its powerful natural language processing capabilities, and its application value in the field of lung cancer diagnosis and treatment is continuously increasing. The paper systematically analyzes that the exceptional potential of LLMs in lung cancer auxiliary diagnosis, tumor feature extraction, automatic staging, progression/outcome analysis, treatment recommendations, medical documentation generation, and patient education. However, they face critical technical and ethical challenges including inconsistent performance in complex integrated decision-making (e.g., TNM staging, personalized treatment suggestions) and "black box" opacity issues, along with dilemmas such as training data biases, model hallucinations, data privacy concerns, and cross-lingual adaptation challenges ("data colonization"). Future directions should prioritize constructing high-quality multimodal corpora specific to lung cancer, developing interpretable and compliant specialized models, and achieving seamless integration with existing clinical workflows. Through dual drivers of technological innovation and ethical standardization, LLMs should be prudently advanced for holistic lung cancer management processes, ultimately promoting efficient, standardized, and personalized diagnosis and treatment practices.

Objective: The cross sectional study aimed to identify predominant co-occurrence patterns among six common mental health issues in college students, so as to provide empirical basis for designing targeted interventions. Methods: From October 2024, a total of 9 837 students from 4 universities in Xiangtan City, Hunan Province, participated in the current study by multistage random cluster sampling method. Participants completed self report measures, including the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7 item Scale (GAD-7), Young s Internet Addiction Diagnostic Questionnaire, the Adolescent Insomnia Symptom Self rating Scale, the Ottawa Self injury Inventory, and the Brief Community Assessment of Psychic Experiences Questionnaire. Demographic and co-occurrence characteristics were first compared using Chi square or trend Chi-square tests, followed by application of the Apriori algorithm to mine association rules for primary co-occurrence patterns. Results: The detection rate of co-occuring the common mental health issues was 46.44%. The detection rate was significantly higher in female than in male students (50.42%, 43.61%; χ 2=44.46) and in students from rural versus urban areas (47.22%, 44.60%; χ 2=5.67) (both P <0.05). Significant differences were observed among freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors (46.63%, 48.35%, 45.05% , 43.66%, respectively; χ 2=9.22, P <0.05), although no statistically significant trend was detected ( χ 2 trend =3.75, P = 0.05 ). Association rule mining identified “anxiety + depression” “anxiety + psychotic experiences + depression” and “anxiety + sleep disorder + depression” as the combinations with the highest support. In addition, “anxiety+depression+Internet addiction+psychotic experiences =>sleep disorder (>= refered to the occurrence of the latter item under the condition that the former item occurs)” and “anxiety + depression+Internet addiction=>sleep disorder” were combinations with relatively high confidence. Conclusions Co-occurrence of these mental health issues among college students is high and exhibits diverse patterns. Strategies to address this burden should prioritize integrated interventions that target these specific combinations of factors.

BACKGROUND:Urolithin B plays an important role in regulating the body's immune response and has antioxidant,anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory properties.Notably,urolithin B has been reported to have inhibitory effects on osteoclast differentiation of Raw 264.7 cells.However,a more comprehensive understanding of its specific mechanism of action in the context of osteoclast differentiation in bone is worth exploring.Systematic research on the regulatory mechanisms of osteoclast overactivation can help to explore new therapeutic targets,screen and develop safer and more effective therapeutic drugs,and provide new ideas to block the overactivation of osteoclasts. OBJECTIVE:By establishing an in vitro osteoclast differentiation model using bone marrow-derived macrophages,to investigate the effect of urolithin B on nuclear factor-κB receptor-activating factor ligand-mediated osteoclast differentiation and to systematically analyze its mechanism of action. METHODS:(1)The safe working concentration of urolithin B was screened by cell counting kit-8 method.(2)Different concentrations of urolithin B(0,12.5,25,and 50 μmol/L)were used to intervene with the osteoclast differentiation of bone marrow-derived macrophages,and the number of osteoclasts and the size of osteocytes were observed using tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining.(3)Different concentrations of urolithin B(0,12.5,25,and 50 μmol/L)were used to intervene with the osteoclast differentiation of bone marrow-derived macrophages,and the relative expression levels of osteoclast-specific genes were detected using real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR.(4)The effect of urolithin B on the P65 and ERK signaling pathways of bone marrow-derived macrophages was observed by western blot.(5)The effect of urolithin B on the key transcription factors nuclear factor of activated T cells 1 and c-Fos in the osteoclastic differentiation of bone marrow-derived macrophages was detected by western blot. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:50 μmol/L or lower concentration of urolithin B had no effect on the proliferation of bone marrow-derived macrophages but significantly inhibited osteoclastic differentiation of bone marrow-derived macrophages.Urolithin B mainly inhibited osteoclastic differentiation of bone marrow-derived macrophages in pre-medium term.Urolithin B down-regulated the relative expression levels of osteoclast specific genes in bone marrow-derived macrophages.50 μmol/L urolithin B inhibited the phosphorylation levels of P65 and ERK in bone marrow-derived macrophages,which led to the inhibition of osteoclast formation.50 μmol/L urolithin B inhibited the expression of key transcription factors nuclear factor of activated T cells 1 and c-Fos in bone marrow-derived macrophages into osteoclasts.To conclude,urolithin B inhibits bone marrow-derived macrophages from differentiating into osteoclasts by suppressing the expression of downstream osteoclastogenic-related signature genes and downregulating the expression of the important osteoclastogenic transcription factors,nuclear factor of activated T cells 1 and c-Fos,via the P65/ERK signaling axis.

AIM: To investigate the efficacy of pars plana vitrectomy(PPV)with or without inner limiting membrane(ILM)peeling in refractory diabetic macular edema.METHODS:Totally 80 patients with refractory diabetic macular edema were retrospectively selected and assigned into groups according to the treatment method. Among them, 38 patients treated with PPV were included as group A, and 42 patients treated with PPV combined with ILM peeling were included as group B. The relevant data of patients in the two groups were collected, and the efficacy of the two groups was compared.RESULTS: At 1, 3, and 6 mo after surgery, the best corrected visual acuity(BCVA), central macular thickness(CMT), and severity of macular edema in the group B were all superior to those in the group A(all P<0.05). At 6 mo after the surgery, the incidence of complications in the group B was 12%, with no prominent difference compared to 18% of the group A(P>0.05).CONCLUSION:PPV combined with or without ILM peeling can improve visual function and relieve macular edema in patients with refractory diabetic macular edema. However, the combination of PPV and ILM peeling is superior to PPV alone in improving vision and relieving macular edema, and does not increase postoperative complications.

Objective: To investigate the trends in mortality and life loss of gastric cancer in Wenzhou City, Zhejiang Province from 2014 to 2023, so as to provide the evidence for formulating the prevention and control strategy for gastric cancer. Methods: The surveillance on causes of death data of permanent residents in Wenzhou City were collected through the Wenzhou Chronic Disease Monitoring and Management Information System from 2014 to 2023. The crude mortality of gastric cancer was calculated, and standardized by the data from the Sixth Chinese National Population Census in 2010. The life loss were measured using potential years of life lost (PYLL) and rate of potential years of life lost (PYLLR). The characteristics of mortality and life loss of gastric cancer in different genders and age groups were described. The trends in mortality and PYLLR of gastric cancer were analyzed using the average annual percent change (AAPC). Results: Totally 17 080 deaths were reported due to gastric cancer in Wenzhou City from 2014 to 2023, accounting for 12.58% and ranking third in the order of malignant tumor deaths. The crude mortality of gastric cancer was 20.73/105, and the standardized mortality was 15.22/105, showing decreasing trends (AAPC=-3.311%, -6.470%, both P<0.05). The crude mortality of gastric cancer was 29.22/105 in men and 11.61/105 in women, with standardized mortality rates of 20.81/105 and 8.74/105 (both P<0.05). The crude mortality of gastric cancer appeared a tendency towards a rise with increasing age (P<0.05), reaching the highest rate of 225.88/105 in the group aged 80 to <85 years. The PYLL and PYLLR of gastric cancer were 107 607.50 person-years and 1.37‰. The PYLLR appeared a tendency towards a decline from 2014 to 2023, with AAPC of -6.667% (P<0.05). Conclusions The mortality and PYLLR of gastric cancer in Wenzhou City appeared a tendency towards a decline from 2014 to 2023. Men and the elderly populations were the key groups for the prevention and treatment of gastric cancer.

AIM: To predict diabetic retinopathy(DR)progression through macular layer thickness in diabetic patients detected by optical coherence tomography(OCT).METHODS: Retrospective study. The clinical data of 100 cases(200 eyes)of diabetic patients admitted to our hospital from January 2023 to September 2024 were collected. According to the international clinical DR classification, they were divided into the non-diabetic retinopathy(NDR)group with 32 cases(64 eyes), the non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy(NPDR)group with 38 cases(76 eyes), and the proliferative diabetic retinopathy(PDR)group with 30 cases(60 eyes). At the same time, 49 cases(98 eyes)of healthy controls whose age and gender were matched with those of the diabetic patients were collected as the normal group. All patients underwent OCT examination. The thickness changes of the retinal nerve fiber layer(RNFL), ganglion cell layer(GCL), inner plexiform layer(IPL), outer nuclear layer(ONL), photoreceptor cell layer and total retinal thickness(RT)in the subregions of the macular area were compared among the groups. The Eta coefficient was used to analyze the correlation between them and the severity of DR.RESULTS: The thickness of RNFL, GCL, IPL, ONL and photoreceptor cell layer in each sub-region and the average of macular area in the PDR group was significantly lower than that in the NDR and normal groups, while the average RT thickness was significantly higher than that in the NPDR, NDR and normal groups(all P<0.05). The thickness of RNFL(central area, upper inner and outer rings and lower inner and outer rings and average), GCL(upper inner and outer rings and lower inner and outer rings and average), IPL(upper inner ring), ONL(central, upper inner ring and lower inner ring)and photoreceptor cell layer(upper inner and outer rings and lower inner and outer rings and average)in macular area of the PDR group was significantly thicker than that in the NPDR group(all P<0.05). The thickness of RNFL, GCL, IPL, ONL and photoreceptor cell layer in each sub-region and the average of macular area in the NPDR group was significantly lower than that in the NDR and normal groups, while the average RT thickness was significantly thicker than that in the NDR and normal groups(all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the above indicators between the NDR group and the normal group(all P>0.05). The severity of DR was significantly correlated with the average thickness of RNFL, GCL, IPL, ONL, photoreceptor cell layer and RT in macular area(all P<0.001).CONCLUSION: OCT measurement of the thickness of RNFL, GCL, IPL, ONL, photoreceptor cell layer and RT in the macular area in the diabetic patients can evaluate the progression of DR.

Objective Sentinel headache（SH） refers to new-onset headache or existing headache with altered characteristics that occurs within seven days before stroke in patients， and this study aims to investigate the incidence rate and clinical features of SH in stroke patients and its association with prognosis. Methods A total of 145 stroke patients who were admitted to Department of Neurology， The First Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University， from August 2022 to April 2023 were enrolled based on inclusion/exclusion criteria， and general information was collected. According to the presence or absence of SH， they were divided into headache and control group. The features of SH were summarized， and follow-up was performed after 1 year to analyze the association between SH and prognosis. Results Among the 145 patients with stroke，30（20.7%） developed SH， with the subtypes of intracerebral hemorrhage（9 patients， 25.7%）， cerebral infarction （15 patients，18.9%）， transient ischemic attack（3 patients，14.3%）， and subarachnoid hemorrhage （3 patients， 30.0%）. Conclusion SH may occur in all stroke patients， with a prevalence rate of 20.7%. The manifestations of SH include migraine-like headache， tension-type headache， and cluster-like headache. The results of this study do not establish an association between SH and 1-year prognosis in stroke patients，and further studies are needed in the future.

OBJECTIVE To offer a reference for the treatment of Mycobacterium iranicum infection by analyzing the diagnosis and management of a single case alongside literature-reported cases. METHODS Through case report and literature reviews， this study synthesized the clinical features， therapeutic regimens， and patient outcomes of those infected with M. iranicum. RESULTS In the single case documented in this report， subsequent to clinical pharmacists’ involvement in the consultation， the patient was prescribed a therapeutic regimen comprising levofloxacin （0.5 g， qd， ivgtt）+Clarithromycin sustained-release tablets （1 000 mg， qd， po） + Ethambutol tablets （0.75 g， qd， po）. The patient exhibited clinical improvement and was discharged after treatment. This article integrated 12 published studies， encompassing 13 patients （7 male and 6 female）， of whom 69.23% were aged ≥50 years. Patients infected with M. iranicum exhibited non-specific clinical manifestations and imaging features， with pulmonary infection as the primary presentation. Antimicrobial susceptibility test revealed that M. iranicum was susceptible to multiple agents， including amikacin， clarithromycin， linezolid， and ethambutol. The three-drug combination therapy was the most frequently employed regimen. In terms of clinical outcomes， there were 9 cases （69.23%） of clinical cure， 3 cases （23.08%） of bacteriological negativity conversion， and 1 case （7.69%） of treatment failure. CONCLUSIONS For M. iranicum infection， a triple-drug therapeutic regimen consisting of three agents with distinct mechanisms of action selected from amikacin， clarithromycin， moxifloxacin， levofloxacin， minocycline， ethambutol， and other relevant drugs may represent a relatively optimal strategy.
