Liver transplantation (LT) has become a standard treatment for end-stage liver diseases, and graft injury is intricately associated with poor prognosis. Granzyme B (GZMB) plays a vital role in natural killer (NK) cell biology, but whether NK-derived GZMB affects graft injury remains elusive. Through the analysis of single-cell RNA-sequencing data obtained from human LT grafts and the isolation of lymphocytes from mouse livers following ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), we demonstrated that 2NK cells with high expression of GZMB are enriched in patients and mice. Both systemically and liver-targeted depletion of NK cells led to a notable reduction in GZMB⁺ cell infiltration, subsequently resulting in diminished graft injury. Notably, the reconstitution of Il2rg ^-/- Rag2 ^-/- mice with purified Gzmb-KO NK cells demonstrated superior outcomes compared to those with wild-type NK cells. Crucially, global knockout of GZMB and pharmacological inhibition exhibited remarkable improvements in liver function in both mouse IRI and rat LT models. Moreover, a phosphorylated derivative of FDA-approved vidarabine was identified as an effective inhibitor of mouse GZMB activity by molecular dynamics, which could provide a potential avenue for therapeutic intervention. Therefore, targeting NK cell-derived GZMB during the LT process suggests potential therapeutic strategies to improve post-transplant outcomes.

Objective:To explore the level of unmet need during chemotherapy for gastric cancer patients, analyze its dynamic trajectory and impact on the economic toxicity of chemotherapy.Methods:Convenience sampling was used to select 385 gastric cancer patients who received chemotherapy from June 2022 to December 2023 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University. The level of unmet need for patients' first chemotherapy cycle (C 1) , second chemotherapy cycle (C 2) and third chemotherapy cycle (C 3) and economic toxicity at the end of chemotherapy were investigated separately. The latent class growth model (LCGM) was used to analyze classes of unmet need trajectories and to compare differences in patient economic toxicity across classes. Results:Finally 368 patients completed all data collection, and the effective response rate of survey respondents was 95.58%. As chemotherapy progressed, patients' unmet need scores gradually increased, and the unmet need scores of C 1, C 2, and C 3 were (35.54±5.44) , (47.32±6.45) , and (58.19±11.81) , respectively, which were categorized into three latent classes of medium-low level rapid increase group, medium level gradual increase group, and medium level stable group. There were 122 cases (33.15%) in medium-low level rapid increase group, 167 cases (45.38%) in medium level gradual increase group, and 79 cases (21.47%) in medium level stable group. The lowest economic toxicity score was found in medium-low level rapid increase group, followed by medium level gradual increase group, and the highest in medium level stable group, and the difference in economic toxicity scores among the three groups was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . The percentage of patients with positive economic toxicity in the three groups was 45.90% (56/122) , 28.14% (47/167) , and 18.99% (15/79) , respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Unmet needs of patients during chemotherapy for gastric cancer show a moderate to high level and gradually increase with the course of chemotherapy. The trajectory can be divided into three latent classes of medium-low level rapid increase group, medium level gradual increase group, and medium level stable group. There are differences in economic toxicity for patients with different classes of unmet need trajectories, with patients in increase or rapid increase groups facing severe economic toxicity.

Objective To explore the value of diffusion kurtosis imaging(DKI)in the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease with mild cognitive impairment(PD-MCI)patients.Methods A total of 18 patients with Parkinson's disease cognitive normal(PDN),22 patients with PD-MCI,and 24 healthy controls(HC)were prospectively included.All participants underwent DKI,and regions of interest(ROI)were selected in the substantia nigra,red nucleus,striatum,and posterior cingulate gyrus for post-processing.The diagnostic efficacy of DKI parameters on PD patients' cognitive status was analyzed by the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results Compared with the PDN group,the PD-MCI group had a longer disease duration and a higher H-Y stage.Compared with the HC group,the PD-MCI group showed significantly lower mean kurtosis(MK),radial kurtosis(RK),axial kurtosis(AK),and fractional anisotropy(FA)values in the substantia nigra and posterior cingulate gyrus.In the PDN group,FA and MK values in the substantia nigra were significantly decreased,while FA values in the striatum and posterior cingulate gyrus were significantly increased(P＜0.05).Compared with the PDN group,the PD-MCI group showed significantly decreased DKI parameter values in the substantia nigra and posterior cingulate gyrus,and significantly decreased RK,AK,and FA values in the striatum(P＜0.05).The FA values of striatum,posterior cingulate gyrus and joint predictors were the most effective in the diagnosis of PD-MCI and the area under the curve(AUC)were 0.826,0.853 and 0.960,respectively.Conclusion DKI can detect microstructural changes in PD patients.Microstructural alterations in the striatum and posterior cingulate gyrus have an impact on early cognitive function changes in PD patients.FA demonstrate high sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of PD-MCI,and the combined diagnostic efficacy across multiple regions is even higher.

Objective:To integrate the best evidence of non-drug intervention of urinary incontinence in elderly women and to formulate practical recommendations.Methods:In this systematic review study, using “elderly woman”,“urinary incontinence”,“bladder training”,“pelvic floor muscle training”,“enuresis”,“leakage of urine” as the key words, the 6S evidence resource pyramid model was used to search in British Medical Journal best practice, Uptodate, World Health Organization, Guidelines International Network, National Institute for Health and Care Excellence, Chinese Medical Association, Scottish Intercollegiate Guideline Network, Registered Nurses Association of Ontario, Cochrane Library, The Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI), New Zealand Guidelines Group, Polish Society of Gynecologists and Obstetricians, PubMed, Embase, Medline, Web of Science, SinoMed, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, etc. The evidence retrieved included evidence-based knowledge base resources, clinical practice guidelines, expert consensus, systematic review, etc. Data were retrieved from January 1, 2017 to May 1, 2022, and collated from May 2, 2022 to May 25, 2022. Two researchers independently evaluated the quality of literature and extracted data using the AGREE Ⅱ and JBI evidence-based health care center assessment tools. The JBI evidence-based health care center′s evidence pre-rating system and evidence recommendation rating system were applied to rank the evidence; and under the guidance of the evidence structure of JBI, the strength of evidence recommendation was determined and the best evidence was extracted and summarized in combination with the study group discussion and expert opinion.Results:A total of 9 articles were retrieved, including 7 guidelines and 2 systematic reviews; and 6 guidelines were classified as Grade A and 1 as grade B; both 2 systematic reviews were rated as Grade A; 84% (27/32) of the items were evaluated as “Yes”. Evidence were summarized as 34 pieces of best evidence from 6 dimensions, including “overall recommendation, evaluation of type and degree of urinary incontinence, lifestyle change, behavioral therapy, prevention of precipitating factors, intervention in special population”; the flow chart of screening, evaluation, special symptoms, life style and behavior therapy was combed, and the practical suggestions were formed.Conclusions:The overall quality of the literature on non-drug intervention of urinary incontinence in elderly women is high, and the level of evidence is high. Early identification of urinary incontinence types and assessment of disease severity, lifestyle changes, avoidance of predisposing factors and behavioral therapy are the key to non-drug treatment of urinary incontinence in those patients.

Objective:To investigate the effects of fritinib on angiogenesis, tumor growth and inositol requiring enzyme 1 (IRE1) -apoptosis signal regulating kinase 1 (ASK1) -c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway in triple negative breast cancer.Methods:Triple negative breast cancer cells MDA-MB-231 were taken and divided into normal saline (NS) group, low-dose fritinib (LD) group, medium-dose fritinib (MD) group and high-dose fritinib (HD) group. NS group was added with 100 μmol/L normal saline. LD group, MD group and HD group were added with 25, 50 and 100 μmol/L fritinib, respectively. Cell proliferation was detected by MTT assay, cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry, the ability of cells to form mimicry vessels was observed by three-dimensional cell culture, and the related indexes of angiogenesis and IRE1-ASK1-JNK pathway were detected by Western blotting. Twenty triple-negative breast cancer rat models were divided into control group and experimental group by random number table method, with 10 rats in each group. The control group was given normal saline gavage and the experimental group was given 100 μmol/L fritinib gavage. The tumor growth of rats in the two groups was observed and recorded.Results:The 48 h cell proliferation rates of NS group, LD group, MD group and HD group were (85.44±5.58) %, (73.24±4.95) %, (61.53±4.07) % and (50.23±2.97) %, respectively ( F=4.01, P=0.002). Compared with the NS group, the cell proliferation rate in LD, MD and HD groups was significantly decreased in a dose-dependent manner (all P<0.05). The apoptosis rates of NS group, LD group, MD group and HD group were (3.41±0.39) %, (18.75±1.94) %, (24.97±2.58) % and (38.62±3.27) %, respectively ( F=18.99, P<0.001). Compared with the NS group, the apoptosis rate of LD, MD and HD groups was significantly increased in a dose-dependent manner (all P<0.05). The number of mimicry vessels in NS group, LD group, MD group and HD group was 19.58±2.11, 15.67±2.02, 11.57±1.73 and 5.20±1.23, respectively ( F=3.28, P=0.008). Compared with the NS group, the number of mimicry vessels in LD group, MD group and HD group was significantly reduced. The results were dose-dependent (all P<0.05). vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) protein expression in NS group, LD group, MD group and HD group was 2.36±0.21, 1.79±0.17, 1.48±0.14 and 0.94±0.10, respectively ( F=5.17, P<0.001). The expression of IRE1 protein was 1.18±0.12, 1.67±0.18, 2.03±0.24 and 2.39±0.28, respectively ( F=5.55, P<0.001). The expression of ASK1 protein was 1.09±0.11, 1.46±0.13, 1.81±0.18, 2.33±0.21 ( F=5.32, P<0.001), respectively. JNK protein expression was 1.01±0.09, 1.48±0.14, 1.86±0.21 and 2.28±0.24, respectively ( F=6.92, P<0.001). Compared with the NS group, VEGF protein expression in LD, MD and HD groups was significantly decreased, and the expressions of IRE1, ASK1 and JNK were significantly increased in a dose-dependent manner (all P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the tumor weight and volume of the experimental group were significantly decreased [ (0.55±0.10) g vs. (1.37±0.15) g, t=14.38, P<0.001; (77.39±3.21) mm 3vs. (118.26±5.34) mm 3, t=20.74, P<0.001], tumor inhibition rate was significantly increased [ (71.23±3.85) % vs. (32.56±3.08) %, t=24.80, P<0.001]. Conclusion:Fritinib has an inhibitory effect on the activity of triple negative breast cancer cells, which can significantly reduce their angiogenesis and inhibit tumor growth. Moreover, it is related to the activation of IRE1-ASK1-JNK pathway.
