Objective To systematically analyze the literature characteristics of Journal of Organ Transplantation since its inception. Methods Using the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) academic journal full-text database as the data source, all articles published in the Journal of Organ Transplantation from January 2010 to August 2025 were retrieved. After excluding non-academic papers, a total of 1 568 research papers were included. R language 4.3.0, Bibliometrix package 3.2.1, and Citespace software were used to analyze the number of publications, publishing institutions, authors, keywords and other aspects. Results The number of publications in Journal of Organ Transplantation increased from an average of 82 articles per year in the early years after its inception to 113 articles per year in recent years, a growth of 37.8%. The geographical distribution of publishing institutions covers 32 provinces, cities and autonomous regions nationwide, mainly concentrated in the South China, East China and North China regions, and has now basically covered the central and western regions in recent years. The author collaboration network includes 45 authors distributed across 7 major collaboration clusters, forming a stable multi-level national research system centered on key university-affiliated hospitals. The high-frequency keywords are dominated by "liver transplantation" (425 times) and "kidney transplantation" (396 times). The theme evolution shows a clear three-stage characteristic: initially focusing on clinical technology application, deepening to immune mechanism exploration in the middle stage, and recently (since 2022) focusing on cutting-edge research areas such as xenotransplantation. Conclusions Journal of Organ Transplantation has witnessed the rapid development of China's organ transplantation cause, fully reflecting the research status and trends in China's organ transplantation field, and has provided an important platform for the future development and international cooperation in China's organ transplantation field.

In the context of global warming, protecting outdoor workers from occupational heat exposure has become an important public health concern. This review summarized the principle, applicability, and limitation of three categories of wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT) prediction models: empirical regression models, heat-balance models, and machine-learning models. Drawing on international experience from the United States, Europe, and Japan, this review further examined the technical challenges of applying WBGT-based prediction models to large-scale occupational heat stress early warning systems. In response to gaps in occupational heat stress management in China, WBGT should be considered a core assessment indicator to support a transition from passive response to proactive intervention. A localized implementation pathway is proposed, incorporating mechanism-based model calibration, regional parameter adaptation, and multi-source data fusion. Strengthening collaboration between public health and meteorological departments and developing platform-based flexible intervention strategies for workers in new forms of employment may improve the targeting of occupational heat stress early warning and health protection. Future research should focus on physics-constrained machine learning, refined microenvironmental prediction, and individualized risk assessment to support the development of a digitally enabled occupational heat-health protection framework.

Objective:To explore the prognosis after radical resection for stage Ⅰ gastric cancer and the application value of adjuvant chemotherapy.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 3 353 patients with stage Ⅰ gastric cancer who were admitted to Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center from January 2000 to December 2022 were collected. There were 2 369 males and 984 females, aged 60(range, 21-91) years. All patients underwent radical R 0 resection. Observation indicators: (1) clinicopathological characteristics of patients; (2) influencing factors for postoperative prognosis of patients; (3) prognostic analysis of patients; (4) construction and validation of a predictive model for the efficacy of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. Comparison of count data between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed using the Cox proportional hazards regression model. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rates and draw survival curves, and the Log-rank test was used for survival analysis. Based on the multivariate analysis result, a nomogram prediction model was constructed to predict survival benefit. Results:(1) Clinicopatho-logical characteristics of patients. The highly, moderately, and poorly differentiated tumors were observed in 16, 234, 396 cases of 646 patients aged <50 years and 279, 1 617, 811 cases of 2 707 pati-ents aged ≥50 years, respectively, showing a significant difference in degree of tumor differentiation between them ( P<0.05). For 297 patients in stage T1N1M0, cases aged <50 years and ≥50 years were 71 and 226, cases of males and females were 184 and 113, cases with negative and positive vascular invasion were 37 and 260, cases with negative and positive nerve invasion were 275 and 22, cases without and with postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy were 222 and 75, respectively. The above indicators for 678 patients in stage T2N0M0 105, 573, 533, 145, 517, 161, 526, 152, 563, 115, respectively. There were significant differences in the above indicators between the two groups ( P<0.05). (2) Influencing factors for postoperative prognosis of patients. Results of multivariate analysis showed that age ≥50 years, stage T2, moderately differentiated tumor, the number of lymph nodes dissected <16, positive vascular invasion, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) ≥5 μg/L, and CA19-9 ≥37 U/mL were independent risk factors for disease-free survival (DFS) after surgery for stage Ⅰ gastric cancer ( hazard ratio=4.600, 1.555, 1.835, 1.362, 1.451, 1.571, 2.134, 95% confidence interval as 2.806-7.541, 1.205-2.006, 1.016-3.314, 1.059-1.753, 1.057-1.993, 1.100-2.243, 1.257-3.625, P<0.05). Age ≥50 years, stage T2, the number of lymph nodes dissected <16, positive vascular invasion, CEA ≥5 μg/L, and CA19-9 ≥37 U/mL were independent risk factors for overall survival (OS) after surgery for stage Ⅰ gastric cancer ( hazard ratio=5.208, 1.597, 1.373, 1.520, 1.464, 2.356, 95% confidence interval as 3.028-8.955, 1.231-2.072, 1.060-1.777, 1.099-2.104, 1.004-2.134, 1.385-4.009, P<0.05). Postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy was an independent protective factor for both DFS and OS after surgery for stage I gastric cancer ( hazard ratio=0.361 0.297, 95% confidence interval as 0.177-0.736, 0.131-0.674, P<0.05). (3) Prognostic analysis of patients. According to the results of multi-variate analysis, among 3 353 patients, there were significant differences in 5-year DFS rate and 10-year OS rate between patients aged <50 years and ≥50 years ( P<0.05). There were significant differences in 5-year DFS rate and 10-year OS rate among patients in TNM stage ⅠA and ⅠB ( P<0.05). There were significant differences in 5-year DFS rate and 10-year OS rate among patients in stage T1N0M0, T1N1M0, T2N0M0 ( P<0.05). There were significant differences in 5-year DFS rate and 10-year OS rate among patients with the highly, moderately, and poorly differentiated tumors ( P<0.05). There were significant differences in 5-year DFS rate and 10-year OS rate among patients with the number of lymph lodes dissected <16 and ≥16 ( P<0.05). There were significant differences in 5-year DFS rate and 10-year OS rate between patients with negative and positive vascular invasion ( P<0.05). There were significant differences in 5-year DFS rate and 10-year OS rate between patients with and without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy ( P<0.05), among patients in stage T1N0M0, T1N1M0, T2N0M0 who received no postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy ( P<0.05). For patients in stage T1N1M0, there was no significant difference in 5-year DFS rate and 10-year OS rate between patients with and without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy ( P>0.05).Results of stratified analysis showed that for patients aged ≥ 50 years, there were significant differences in 5-year DFS rate and 10-year OS rate between patients with and without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy ( P<0.05). For patients in stage T2N0M0, there were significant differences in 5-year DFS rate and 10-year OS rate between patients with and without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy ( P<0.05). For patients with positive vascular invasion, there were significant differences in 5-year DFS rate and 10-year OS rate between patients with and without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy ( P<0.05). (4) Construction and validation of a predictive model for the efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy. A nomogram predictive model was constructed based on the multivariate analysis results of OS and used for calculating net benefits and distribution. Among the 3 096 patients without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy, 1 009 cases had a predicted net benefit of >5%-10%, and 250 patients had a predicted net benefit >10%. The predicted survival analysis further verified that the predicted benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy was consistent with the prognosis of patients. Conclusions:Patients with age ≥50 years, stage T2 tumors, moderately differentiated tumor, the number of lymph nodes dissected <16, positive vascular invasion have worse survival prognosis postoperative. Postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy provides better prognosis in high-risk patients. Patients in stage T1N1M0 have lower recurrence and survival risks, of whom with 1 metastatic lymph node is more suitable for follow-up rather than postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy.

A 42-year-old male patient developed mild allergic symptoms after the use of cisatracurium besylate in laparoscopic left renal tumor resection,which was relieved by symptomatic treatment.When the drug was added again intraoperatively,the patient's blood pressure decreased sharply from 120/71 mmHg to 50/30 mmHg,and the airway resistance increased from 16 cmH2O to 38 cmH2O,and the patient developed typical signs of anaphylactic shock.After immediate intravenous injection of epinephrine,calcium chloride and other drugs,the patient's blood pressure rose to 95/57 mmHg,airway resistance decreased to 20 cmH2O,and vital signs tended to be stable.The Naranjo's Assessment Scale was used to evaluate and analyze the correlation of suspected drugs.The score was 9 points,indicating that the association between anaphylactic shock and cisatracurium besylate in this patient was judged to be"definitely related".This article suggests that cisatracurium besylate carries an allergic risk and should be used with caution,and the monitoring of vital signs and allergic reactions should be strengthened for early identification and timely treatment to ensure the safety of patients during the perioperative period.

Purpose To explore the feasibility and validity of radiomics combined with blind/referenceless image spatial quality evaluator(Brisque)for automated assessment of arterial-phase image quality in hepatic gadolinium ethoxybenzyl diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid(Gd-EOB-DTPA)dynamic enhanced MRI examinations.Materials and Methods A total of 326 arterial phase images from January 2020 to March 2024 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Chinese Medicine for liver Gd-EOB-DTPA dynamic enhancement MRI examination were retrospectively collected.A 4-level(1-4 points)Likert scale was used for subjective image quality scoring,and then binary classification was used to divide the images into clinically acceptable group(166 images with a score of 2-4)and clinically unacceptable group(160 images with a score of 1).All images were randomly divided into a training set(227 images)and a test set(99 images)in a 7∶3 ratio.Brisque images were created based on arterial-phase images,and subsequently Brisque image features,image histologic features of the original arterial-phase images and combined features of the two were extracted.The extracted data were reduced in dimension and the optimal features of radiomics were selected.Based on the Logistic regression algorithm,radiomics models,Brisque models and combined models of the two were constructed.The receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn for each subject,and the area under the curve(AUC),threshold,sensitivity,specificity,accuracy,negative predictive value and positive predictive value were calculated to analyze the diagnostic performance of each model,and the net benefit of the models was evaluated by decision curve analysis.Results The AUC values of the radiomics model,Brisque model and combined model in the training set were 0.942(95%CI 0.914-0.969),0.722(95%CI 0.655-0.788)and 0.967(95%CI 0.947-0.987),respectively.In the test set,the AUC values were 0.904(95%CI 0.848-0.960),0.684(95%CI 0.579-0.789)and 0.920(95%CI 0.866-0.972),respectively.There was statistically significant difference between two of the three models in the training set(Z=6.493,3.397,7.427;all P<0.05);in the test set,there was statistically significant difference between the combined model and the Brisque model,and between the radiomics model and the Brisque model(Z=4.137,3.740,both P<0.05),but no statistically significant difference between the combined model and the radiomics model(P>0.05).The diagnostic performance was higher in the combined model in both the training set and the test set.The decision curve analysis curve suggested that the net benefit of the combined model was greater than that of the other two models.Conclusion Radiomics combined with Brisque can be applied in the assessment of the quality of arterial-phase images in Gd-EOB-DTPA dynamic-enhanced MRI examinations of the liver to automatically detect clinically unacceptable arterial-phase images of the liver with high diagnostic efficacy,which contributes to the improvement of the quality of the images at the time of acquisition,leading to a reduction in the number of duplicate scans and an increase in the accuracy of the diagnosis.
