In recent years, remarkable advances have been made in lung transplantation regarding donor evaluation, perioperative support, and immune regulation, laying a foundation for improving the long-term survival of recipients. The rational application of extended criteria donor lungs and the popularization of ex vivo lung perfusion technology have enhanced the utilization efficiency and safety of marginal donor lungs. Refined assessment of risk factors such as donors’ smoking history and infectious status has reduced the incidence of primary graft dysfunction and postoperative infection. In terms of recipient management, individualized assessment systems have been gradually optimized. The standardized application of intraoperative extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and the development of minimally invasive surgical techniques have effectively alleviated perioperative injuries. The optimization of postoperative immunosuppressive regimens and advances in rejection monitoring technologies have further improved the long-term survival of grafts. Nevertheless, chronic graft dysfunction and recurrent or refractory infections remain the major bottlenecks restricting long-term prognosis. Future research should focus on expanding donor sources, improving the repair quality of marginal donor lungs, promoting precise immunosuppression and anti-infection strategies, and comprehensively enhancing the long-term survival rate and quality of life of lung transplant recipients.

Objective To explore whether the biopsy rate and the positive rate of biopsy during colonoscopy can serve as effective indicators for evaluating the diagnostic proficiency of endoscopists.Methods Total fifteen endoscopists from the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Military Medical University,Guiqian International General Hospital and No.958 Hospital of PLA Army were enrolled and served as the study subjects.According to their years of experience,gender and working hours,they were divided into a senior group(n=8)and a junior group(n=7),a male group(n=9)and a female group(n=6),and a morning period(08:00-12:00)and an afternoon period(13:00-18:00).The data of all patients examined by the aforementioned endoscopists between January 2023 and December 2023 were collected,including the basic demographics,colonoscopic results,biopsy outcomes and pathological diagnoses of the patients.ANOVA was used to analyze the differences in the biopsy rate and positive rate of biopsy existed among the endoscopists of different years of experience,gender and working at different periods(morning and afternoon).Additionally,multivariate logistic regression analysis was employed to identify the independent risk factors associated with positive rates of biopsy.Results The senior group had significantly lower biopsy rate[(5.73±0.81)%vs(6.89±0.97)%],but obviously higher positive rate of biopsy[(53.52±3.87)%vs(33.70±7.85)%]than the junior group(both P<0.01).The biopsy rate was notably higher during the morning working time period than the afternoon working time period in all the endoscopits[(6.76±1.11)%vs(5.53±1.57)%,P<0.05].Logistic regression analysis showed that the years of experience[(53.52±3.87)%vs(33.70±7.85)%,OR=92.187,95%CI:3.118～2 725.366,P<0.01)and working time[(48.35±10.50)%vs(37.80±10.65)%,OR=20.885,95%CI:1.266～344.602,P<0.05)were influencing factors for positive rate of biopsy.Conclusion The biopsy rate is low and positive rate of biopsy is high among the senior experienced endoscopists,while,opposite results are seen in the junior experienced clinicians,indicating correlation of biopsy rate and positive rate of biopsy with diagnostic proficiency of endoscopists.

Objective:To investigate the current status and challenges of pediatric life support training in China and provide references for improving training quality.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted to collect data from pediatric life support training centers across the country，covering basic institutional information，training capacity and training faculty，training program funding，as well as existing challenges and issues.The domestic registry of training centers in 2023 was obtained through the American Heart Association's online platform.After contacting and verifying each center，an online questionnaire was distributed，and the aggregated data were statistically analyzed.Results:A total of 42 institutions participated in the survey，including 19 children's hospitals，14 general hospitals，6 maternal and child health hospitals，2 women and children’s hospitals，and 1 training institution.The distribution of training centers showed a concentration in coastal areas，with the top three provinces/municipalities being Guangdong（7/42，16.7%），Zhejiang（6/42，14.3%），and Shanghai（4/42，9.5%）.As of December 31 2023，the 42 institutions had an annual basic life support（BLS）training volume of 8 587 individuals，the median was 120 (100,200)，and an annual pediatric advanced life support（PALS）training volume of 2 448 individuals，the median was 30 (20,50).Among the 42 institutions，there were 598 BLS instructors and 306 PALS instructors.Among the surveyed institutions，24（24/42，57.1%）reported BLS instructor teams comprising fewer than 10 members，and 33（33/42，78.6%）reported PALS instructor teams comprising fewer than 10.Only 7 centers(7/42,16.7%）reported having dedicated funding support.The top three challenges were：training sessions occupying instructors’personal time（27/42，64.3%），low instructor compensation（16/42，38.1%），and issues with the data submission system（16/42，38.1%）.Conclusion:Pediatric life support training centers in China are primarily children’s hospitals，with a geographical concentration in coastal areas，which is also reflected in the distribution of training scale and instructor resources.Most centers have relatively small training scales and limited instructor capacity，with many instructors conducting training during their personal time.These issues may hinder the implementation and effectiveness of training programs.

Objective:To systematically summarize, describe, and evaluate the evidence related to convex baseplates use in adult ostomy patients through an evidence map, in order to identify research gaps and future directions.Methods:A systematic search was conducted in Chinese and English databases, including China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data, VIP, and PubMed, and others, from database inception to September 2024. Randomized controlled trials and quasi-experimental studies on convex baseplates use in adult ostomy patients were included. Literature quality was assessed using the Cochrane Handbook 5.1.0 bias risk assessment tool and the critical appraisal tool for quasi-experimental studies from the Joanna Briggs Institute Centre for Evidence-Based Healthcare. Based on the PICO principle [participant (P) , intervention (I) , comparison (C) , outcome (O) ] , an evidence mapping coding system was extracted and developed by integrating relevant guidelines and consensus. Data extraction and coding were performed using EPPI-Reviewer software, and key evidence characteristics and literature quality were presented using bubble charts.Results:A total of eight randomized controlled trials and six quasi-experimental studies were included. Most of the 14 studies had a high risk of bias. The target populations for interventions were divided into two categories: prevention and treatment. The main complications involved stoma skin-mucosal separation, stoma peristomal dermatitis, and stoma height issues. The main outcome measures included baseplate seal integrity, wound healing, complication rates, clinical symptoms, adverse events, patient acceptance, and quality of life.Conclusions:Most of the studies on convex baseplates has focused on enterostomy patients. The majority of studies have a high risk of bias, and the number of studies is limited. Further clarification is needed on the selection criteria for convex baseplates with different characteristics, and the clinical application effects of convex baseplates urgently need further evaluation.

Objective:To explore the difficulties and needs of wound ostomy incontinence specialist nurses when applying convex baseplates, with the aim of providing a basis for standardizing ostomy care.Methods:Purposeful sampling was used to select 13 wound ostomy incontinence specialist nurses from tertiary hospitals in Hebei, Jilin, Hunan, Beijing, and Tianjin for semi-structured interviews between November and December 2024. Content analysis was used to analyze the data.Results:Two main themes were identified: application dilemmas and application needs. Application dilemmas included four subthemes: insufficient understanding of convex baseplate characteristics, unclear indications and contraindicated populations, lack of unified standards for assessment timing, and inadequate awareness of health education. Application needs included two subthemes: urgent need for related evidence-based evidence and a desire for clinical guidelines and expert consensus.Conclusions:Currently, wound ostomy incontinence specialist nurses in China face challenges in understanding the characteristics of convex baseplates, scope of application, identifying contraindications, determining the optimal timing for application assessment, and providing patient education. Administrators should develop clinical application standards for convex baseplates based on these challenges. Furthermore, researchers should develop relevant clinical guidelines or expert consensus for convex baseplate application in China, providing a basis for the standardized use of ostomy care products.

Objective:To evaluate the role of tumor necrosis factor-α-induced protein 8-like molecule-2 (TIPE2) in the endogenous protective mechanism against acute lung injury in septic mice and the relationship with ferroptosis.Methods:Twenty SPF healthy wild-type male C57BL/6N mice and 20 TIPE2 gene knockout C57BL/6N mice, aged 6-8 weeks, weighing 20-25 g, were assigned to wild-type sham operation group (WT-Sham group), wild-type sepsis group (WT-SEP group), TIPE2 knockout sham operation group (KO-Sham group), and TIPE2 knockout sepsis group (KO-SEP group) using a random number table method, with 10 mice in each group. Acute lung injury was induced by cecal ligation and perforation in anesthetized mice. The animals were sacrificed after anesthesia at 24 h after operation and lung tissues were obtained for examination of the morphological results of lung tissues (with a light microscope) and for determination of wet to dry lung weight (W/D) ratio, contents of ferrous ions (Fe 2+ ), glutathione (GSH) and malondialdehyde (MDA) and expression of solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11), glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and Acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 (ACSL4) (by Western blot). Results:Compared with WT-Sham group, the lung injury score, W/D ratio and contents of Fe 2+ and MDA were significantly increased, the content of GSH was decreased, the expression of GPX4 and SLC7A11 was down-regulated, and the expression of ACSL4 was up-regulated in WT-SEP group ( P<0.05). Compared with WT-SEP group, the lung injury score, W/D ratio and contents of Fe 2+ and MDA were significantly increased, the content of GSH was decreased, the expression of GPX4 and SLC7A11 was down-regulated, and the expression of ACSL4 was up-regulated in KO-SEP group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:TIPE2 is involved in the endogenous protective mechanism against acute lung injury, which may be related to the inhibition of ferroptosis in lung tissues of septic mice.

Aim To investigate the role of tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase(TDO2)in cisplatin-acute kidney in-jury(Cis-AKI)and to explore the mechanism of TDO2 in relation to apoptosis in tubular epithelial cells(TECs)to investigate the mechanism of TDO2 associ-ated with apoptosis.Methods An AKI model was es-tablished by intraperitoneal injection of cisplatin(Cis).Colorimetric assay was used to detect CRE and BUN levels,and PAS staining was employed to observe renal injury in mice.Immunohistochemistry was used to detect TDO2 protein expression and distribution and macrophage(F4/80+)infiltration;immunofluores-cence was used to detect the co-localization of TDO2 with the tubular marker LTL;TUNEL staining was used to detect apoptosis in mouse kidney;flow cytome-try was used to detect overexpression of human renal cortical proximal tubular epithelial cells(HK2)and apoptosis after administration of the TDO2 inhibitor 680C91;Western blot was used to detect TDO2 and NF-κB pathway protein levels in HK2 cells after over-expression and inhibition of TDO2.Results In the o-verall animal experiments,Cis-AKI mice showed signif-icantly higher levels of CRE and BUN and obvious tu-bular damage compared with the control group;at the same time,the renal tissues of Cis-AKI mice showed increased expression of F4/80,and the proportion of apoptotic cells in kidney cells was increased.Immuno-histochemistry and immunofluorescence showed that the expression of TDO2 increased,mainly localized in TECs.In cellular experiments,HK2 cells overexpress-ing TDO2 increased the proportion of apoptosis,and the expression of TDO2,p-IKBα,and p-p65 proteins was elevated,and p-IKBα/IκBα and p-p65/p65 were ele-vated;furthermore,the proportion of apoptosis was re-duced by the administration of 680C91,and the expres-sion of p-IκBα,and p-p65 proteins decreased,and the expression of p-IKBα/IKBα,and p-p65/p65 de-creased.Conclusions Elevated TDO2 in TECs is in-volved in the pathological mechanism of Cis-AKI,which may be related to its induction of apoptosis in TECs and activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway and consequently renal injury.

Foodborne illnesses caused by Salmonella pose significant threats to worldwide public health safety.In this study,a rapid method for screening viable Salmonella in oyster sauce and milk was developed by utilizing an electronic microbial growth analyzer(EMGA).Target food samples were diluted 10-fold with RVS broth and loaded into test tubes.Test tubes were positioned in the EMGA to determine the bacterial growth curves and the time required to reach the maximum growth rate(Tmgr).Using Salmonella typhimurium(S.typhimurium)asan model species,there was linear relationship between the logarithmic value of viable bacterial concentration(lgC)and Tmgr over the range of 5×101-5×106 CFU/mL,with a detection limit of 10 CFU/mL.For oyster sauce,the regression equation was Tmgr(min)=-80.775lg[C/(CFU/mL)]+754.96(R2=0.9907),and the recovery rates of S.typhimurium ranged from 95.2%to 119.8%,with relative standard deviations(RSD)ranging from 3.5%to 16.3%.For milk,the regression equation was Tmgr(min)=-71.922 lg[C/(CFU/mL)]+618.65(R2=0.9985),with recovery rates ranging from 98.4%to 110.6%and RSD ranging from 6.4%to 12.8%.The EMGA method required only one portable instrument,and involving only three manual steps,i.e.,dilution,transfer,and insertion.When S.typhimurium contamination reached 106 CFU/mL,the total time consumption,from the unwrapping of samples to the readout of bacterial concentration,was no more than 7 h.When applied to detection of actual oyster sauce and milk samples,the new method demonstrated strong consistency with plate counting results in positive detection rates.This method was superior to the plate counting method,which was generally considered as a gold standard,in terms of accuracy,precision,simplicity and efficiency,representing a promising alternative for the on-site screening and quantification of viable Salmonella in oyster sauce and milk products.

After the onset of ischemic stroke, microglia undergo lipid metabolic reprogramming, especially lipid droplet accumulation, which significantly affects their polarization state and inflammatory response. Lipid droplets can exacerbate neuroinflammation by synthesizing inflammatory lipid mediators, and may also have a protective effect under certain conditions. Its metabolic reprogramming involves multiple pathway regulation such as fatty acid oxidation and cholesterol efflux. This article reviews the mechanism of changes in lipid droplet metabolism of microglia and its role in the pathological process after stroke, aiming to provide new ideas for metabolic intervention strategies.
